Chapter 1016: Ambush, Guderian is surrounded
Inside the Fortress of El.
The shadow warlock stood on the city wall, looking into the distance.
Amid the billowing smoke and dust, there was Melissa and the Knights fleeing in a panic.
to be frank.
Although I know that Melissa was defeated as planned.
But I didn't expect that I would lose so badly.
Hundreds of thousands of people went to the war, but less than 20,000 returned.
and!
In the smoke and dust behind him, he could still see the Alpha Knight in pursuit.
This scene was seen by the shadow warlock who stayed behind in the fortress.
Even though we already knew that this was a planned defeat.
But I couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in my heart.
In this secret realm.
Because of the suppression of rules.
Fang Yuan is already standing on the same starting line as them.
Even among the gods, except for the Red Flame God.
The other gods all entered ten days in advance.
It took ten years to develop.
It already has a huge advantage.
It was originally thought that many powerful legions on the Old Continent had been lost.
In this secret realm.
Facing an army of gods that has been developing for ten years.
Fang Yuan was doomed to die.
But the real result makes people feel desperate.
First it was the Beast God of the Orc Kingdom, for some unknown reason.
When they had a huge advantage.
It was flattened by the natives.
Although the God Lord guessed that Fang Yuan must have been behind this.
But it also allowed the gods to feel intuitively for the first time that Fang Yuan had more than just a powerful army of his own.
The power of his strategy is also extremely terrifying.
Then the gods adjusted their plans.
Lurking in the royal capital, manipulating the situation in secret.
Prepare to take advantage of the chaos in Alpha Capital.
Use the nobles of Alpha to fight a proxy war with Fang Yuan.
result!
They made continuous moves but still failed to figure out Fang Yuan's identity in Alpha.
Instead, he exposed himself and was driven out of the capital.
Afterwards, the royal capital was controlled by Fang Yuan.
Then there was a great battle outside the royal capital.
The defeat was horrible!!!
All the hidden agents buried in Alpha over the past ten years were sent in.
It was a complete and utter defeat.
The defeat of the royal capital also symbolizes the secret realm.
The gods switched from attack to defense against Fang Yuan.
The strategic balance tilted towards Fang Yuan.
In order to win, the gods united and unified the five kingdoms.
Prepare to leverage the six nations’ advantages in materials and manpower.
Constantly wasting Fang Yuan's energy.
A detailed plan was drawn up for this purpose.
But at the most critical moment, he was interrupted by Fang Yuan.
The first accident happened at sea.
Without waiting for them to come up with a solution.
Then Hastings had another accident.
The gods decided to abandon the sea.
Here in Hastings, Alpha controlled by Fang Yuan was dragged into the quagmire of war.
Using a national strength far stronger than Alpha's, we will gradually narrow the gap between the two sides.
but now!
The Shadow Warlock, standing on the city wall, looked at Melissa who was fleeing to the El Fortress.
there.
In order to stop the pursuers behind.
Melissa's army sent out another 3,000 troops to intercept.
And these three thousand cavalrymen just stopped.
He was swallowed up by the knights coming from behind.
It had no effect on the pursuers.
There is a huge contrast in strength between the two sides.
I couldn't help but have doubts in my mind.
"Can the gods' plan in Hastings really succeed?"
As far as he knows.
The army that was hunting down Melissa was just the natives controlled by Fang Yuan.
It was not Fang Yuan's main force that awakened him.
And Melissa's heavy cavalry.
That was the divine knight awakened by the Goddess of Harvest and blessed by divine grace.
In general.
One Divine Knight is enough to defeat three or even more native cavalrymen.
but now!
The pursuing cavalry outside the city chopped up Melissa's heavily armored knights like cutting vegetables.
Another two thousand was lost in one go.
"I'm afraid this plan will be very precarious."
"This matter should be reported to the Red Flame God."
"Once things are no longer feasible, it's time to leave."
The shadow warlock itself is not the same as the evil god.
He comes from the misty world.
The only master he is loyal to is the God of Red Flame.
It's just a cooperative relationship with the evil god.
But when it comes to life and death, he has no psychological burden at all to betray his cooperative allies.
But the Shadow Warlock will definitely not leave just like that.
The plan has not started yet.
No matter how.
You have to fight to know.
If you can't win, it's not too late to leave.
Anyway, I am also a dragon knight!!!
If you want to leave, no one can stop you.
This is the confidence of the Shadow Warlock.
But at the same time, it will also become his fatal weakness.
outside the city.
After two thousand cavalry were annihilated.
Melissa frowned slightly.
His heavy-armored knights were killed so quickly.
The pursuers behind him are terrifyingly powerful.
But the El Fortress is right in front of us.
Melissa didn't hesitate at all.
Another three thousand knights stayed behind to cover the retreat.
Deploying defenses layer by layer, like adding more oil to a lamp, cannot stop the pursuers from behind.
The three thousand knights who remained were surrounded by the pursuing Guderian in the blink of an eye.
The rest of the cavalry bypassed them and chased after them.
suddenly!
Melissa, who was running away, turned her head suddenly.
"Hasting Guards!"
"Cut off the rear."
He immediately drew out his long sword and slashed down.
He killed the shocked deputy commander of the Hastings Guards beside him.
The head of the Deputy Commander of Death fell to the ground.
The Hastings Knights who had originally escaped.
They all reined in their horses and stood there in a daze.
Melissa took advantage of this opportunity.
He fled quickly with his people.
In a moment, he disappeared from the sight of the guards.
Sacrifice these knights who escaped on their own.
Not a pity for Melissa at all.
After all, the lives of the indigenous people are not lives at all.
The three thousand Hastings native knights who remained did not have time to continue their escape.
He was soon caught up by the Alpha Knight behind him.
The entire knight order was soon surrounded.
At this moment, they are facing these border knights.
Either surrender or fight to the death.
Hastings Royal Guards Knights are all nobles.
But he is not a die-hard fan of the evil god.
After seeing that there was no hope of escape.
They soon chose to lay down their weapons and surrender.
Surrendering after defeat was not a shameful thing for the nobles.
After all, as long as you have money.
It can still be redeemed.
If you die, then everything is gone.
The fleeing Melissa turned around and saw Hastings surrendering Royal Guards Knight.
He snorted coldly.
These natives are simply not trustworthy.
but!
That's when Melissa discovered.
After the native knights surrendered.
The pursuers stopped instead.
In order to gather the surrendered knights, Alpha's border knights were unable to spare any manpower to pursue them.
I have to say this is a huge irony.
"Your Mightiness."
"They're not chasing us anymore!"
The heavy cavalry hero beside him looked at the stopped Alpha Border Knight and looked at Melissa with some concern.
"It doesn't matter."
"They have already chased here."
"It just fell into our trap."
"I just didn't expect that these border knights are not only powerful in combat."
“You still have such strong endurance.”
"After chasing us for so long, you still have this kind of fighting power."
Melissa reined in her horse.
The heavily armored knight behind him stopped running away.
Regrouped.
He no longer had the miserable and panic-stricken temperament he had before.
The elite temperament of the God's Legion began to be restored.
Guderian witnessed all this from a distance.
The next moment, he waved his hand.
The border knights following closely behind him rode their horses.
In an instant, the chaotic battlefield calmed down.
The surrender of Hastings Guards.
They all dismounted, dropping their weapons and armor.
Concentrated not far away.
These people no longer have any fight left.
The Border Knights have regrouped.
"Is this a showdown?"
Guderian averted his gaze, and the horse under him seemed to sense the unusual atmosphere.
The horse's hooves occasionally trampled the gravel on the ground.
Breathing heavily through the nose.
"Sir, a large group of unknown troops have appeared around us and are surrounding us."
The border knight noble officer beside him stepped forward cautiously.
"understood."
"Get everyone ready."
"Follow me immediately upon receiving the order."
Guderian nodded slightly.
The noble officers around him left quickly.
Go and fulfill Guderian's orders.
And he had just left.
Then the knight who surrendered from Hastings came to Guderian.
When you see each other.
The other party revealed his identity.
A black lotus mark.
This is Heidi's unique spy.
"Sir, I am a spy from the Ninth Squad."
"Responsible for spying on the knights of the Hastings Guard."
"My subordinates were incompetent and failed to detect that the enemy had set up an ambush nearby."
"So much so that the army was surrounded."
When he met Guderian, his face was full of self-blame.
Because at this time, the ambush army appeared around.
This made the spy realize that his mission had failed.
"Do not."
"You've done a great job."
Guderian did not blame the other party.
Reconnaissance intelligence.
It is impossible to master everything.
not to mention.
In this ambush, the evil god can use his own army as bait.
Almost all money was spent.
This is a top-secret plan.
How could the spies of the Imperial Guard get it?
"I can only say that the other party hid it too deeply this time."
"Even if you can become the governor of El Fortress, I'm afraid you don't have the right to know about this ambush mission."
"Now that you've been exposed."
"Then there's no point in staying in Hastings."
"Put on your gear and become my knight."
"It's a good opportunity for me to meet the evil god's elite main force."
"Wait until we defeat the evil god's ambush army."
"I will ask Heidi for credit for you then."
Guderian grasped the spear of Gondor and tapped the opponent lightly.
A golden spot of light fell into his body.
This spy changed his job to become a Dragon Lancer.
This is a skill effect attached to the Spear of Gondor.
Able to enfeoff knights loyal to Guderian.
On the battlefield, if a knight dies in battle.
All it takes is a touch of the Spear of Gondor to quickly transform.
It is most suitable for replenishing elite knights during bloody battles.
This is why the border knights are so powerful.
Most of the backbones were converted from Gondor spears.
Originally, this piece of equipment was also suppressed by the rules of the plane.
However, after Fang Yuan used a large amount of magic crystals to refine it.
The power of the spear of Gondor was unlocked.
This also allowed Guderian to train a border knight group that was not afraid of attrition.
That is the Dragon Lancer.
But this transformation is also conditional.
First of all, it must be a knight.
Then there is loyalty.
Loyal to the forces controlled by Fang Yuan.
Without loyalty, conversion will fail.
Fang Yuan had tried before, wanting to use the Spear of Gondor to convert the nobles of the royal capital.
Unfortunately they all failed.
These parasites claim to be loyal to the country.
But that's all bullshit.
Just some excuses to parasitize and suck blood from Alpha.
This also forced Fang Yuan to use puppet insect potion on these nobles.
Among these parasites, puppet worms are the most effective in controlling them.
After a while.
The Border Knights have completed their assembly.
They are on the battlefield.
Divided into two formations.
The spearhead is Guderian, holding the Spear of Gondor.
Behind him were two cavalry units consisting of border knights.
"you!"
"Go to the front and find the enemy commander."
"Just say you want to eat us Border Knights."
"I'm afraid your teeth might break!"
"Notify all the knights."
"Go forward first."
"Drive the enemy's army to move."
“Then turn at the front.”
"The army broke out from the right rear."
"The defense over there is the weakest!"
Guderian would not let his border knights die in vain.
Although they are indigenous.
But as an excellent commander.
As long as your subordinates are loyal to you.
At no time should they be allowed to die meaninglessly.
Even if it means death.
It also has to be of sufficient value.
The knight who was responsible for challenging Melissa was about to leave.
Guderian suddenly thought of something.
"Wait a moment."
He called out to the other person.
"Strip her clothes off."
Guderian pointed to a female knight among the Royal Guards.
In the Kingdom of Hastings.
There are quite a few female knights.
As long as they have the strength, this world does not refuse women from becoming knights.
But most female knights are not the type with curvy figure in Japanese comics.
They are all fierce women with fists as big as casseroles.
It is common to kill a wild beast with just one punch.
But even so, the clothes worn by female knights are very different.
Guderian's order left the messenger somewhat puzzled.
But I still chose to execute it loyally.
After taking off the clothes.
Guderian picked it up with his dragon spear.
Said with satisfaction.
"Take them and give them to Melissa."
"Just say, go back and have a baby."
"battlefield!"
"It belongs to a real man."
"A female knight with a curvy figure and fancy clothes."
"The best place is my bed!"
These humiliating words were definitely intended to anger the other party.
This is what Guderian did at this time.
It is bound to confuse the other person's mind.
As long as Melissa is anxious.
Then the possibility of Guderian escaping with his army is very high.
And as long as Guderian can escape with most of the army.
Then the evil god army, which failed in the ambush, would definitely not let it go so easily.
Will definitely pursue it relentlessly.
This!
That's what Guderian wanted.
The messenger took the clothes.
He took a deep breath and nodded.
He knew that he would surely die on this mission.
But at this moment, I cannot afford to take a single step back.
"As you command, Your Excellency."
"Please don't forget me, Lord Klareo of the Border Red Snake Territory."
"I have a young son in my territory."
Guderian nodded.
Note his name.
Afterwards, the messenger knight left with his clothes, looking solemn.
Simultaneously.
The border knights behind Guderian began to change their formation quickly.
And this time.
Guderian's eyes were fixed on the distance.
over there!
The messenger has arrived in front of Melissa.
suddenly.
Melissa drew her sword and pointed it at the messenger.
His eyes were full of murderous intent.
"court death!"
The long sword swung.
The messenger's head flew off.
And just at this moment.
Guderian dropped his hand suddenly.
"Charge!!!" (End of this chapter)
