Chapter 13 Escape
Chapter 13 Escape
"kill!"
The huge troll army formation seemed to come from the Youth Wave from Hell, wrapped in the power to crush everything, and rolled towards the Jinghu Camp.
For a moment, it was like the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the waves slammed the shore. The fragile defense line barely organized in the Jinghu Camp collapsed at once under such an offensive.
"Plop!"
"Plop!"
...
The collapsed human army was squeezed into the cold lake in rows under the impact of the troll army. Only in the east and west directions, a few human defeated soldiers who saw bad situations escaped in a panic before the troll encirclement closed.
"Aowu--"
As the howls of wolves, the earth began to tremble.
The two wings of the troll army were divided into two wolf cavalry units, one east and one west, chasing human deserters respectively.
"Crash!"
The calm Jinghu Lake suddenly surged huge waves, attacking the troll wolf cavalry on the east side of the battlefield.
"Stop moving forward!"
The wolf cavalry leader hissed.
However, the wolf cavalrymen who were charging rapidly could not control the forward rushing momentum.
The huge wave was like a terrifying hand smashed down.
"Bang!"
Hundreds of wolf cavalry were instantly swallowed.
There is no trace of blood, no broken flesh and bones.
The surging waves immediately freeze after touching the ground, forming an ice wall of more than ten meters high, standing in front of the troll wolf riding.
In the ice wall, the troll wolf cavalry continued to charge during their lifetime.
Lifelike.
Such a terrifying incident scared the wolf cavalry behind them, and they stopped and stopped in front of the ice wall, with a panic expression.
Seeing that this human deserter was about to run farther and farther away, a bright red spear shot out from the center of the troll army, drew a long blood mark in the sky, and finally pierced into the ice wall.
"Click!"
A crack appeared on the ice wall, and then more cracks extended from the position where the spear penetrated, as if it were spider webs in an instant.
"Bang!"
The ice wall shattered.
Countless ice cubes fell along with the wreckage of the wolf cavalry.
"Chase!"
With the command of the leader, the wolf cavalry unit regrouped and chased east again.
But this time, this wolf cavalry had completely lost its arrogant and arrogant momentum at the beginning.
"There is a mage among that human deserter?"
Stepping on the tiny ice cubes, a troll general riding a white wolf picked up the blood-red spear that fell to the ground.
Obviously, it was him who broke the ice wall blocking the road just now.
"Quick, you go chase too, this should be a big fish." Another troll riding a white wolf came over and said to the troll general who picked up the spear.
The mount of the troll clan is a dire wolf. This ferocious beast that is larger than a normal war horse is generally gray.
But there are also a very small number of direwolfs who have white hair.
Such white wolf is sacred in the eyes of the trolls, and is the incarnation of the god of war (also known as the white wolf god of war) they believe in in the world. Therefore, only trolls with noble identities are qualified to regard the white wolf as a mount.
"Yes! Lord Gambic!" Quak bowed and then led a team of wolf cavalry to whistle eastward.
The ice wall spell here is just a small episode. On the front battlefield, this temporary human army has long been defeated. They either knelt on the ground and begged for mercy or were driven into the Mirror Lake like ducks by trolls.
Only a few people are still fighting hard, trying to break out of the encirclement.
In fact, there are not many remnants of humans who have successfully rushed out.
Because the troll army seemed to be a little worried, it did not put all its forces into the encirclement to intercept the defeated soldiers scattered by humans.
Instead, more than half of the elite troops were left as reserves in the rear, as if they were guarding for something.
The killing continues.
The flowing blood continued to flow into Jinghu Lake, dyeing half of the lake surface a dazzling red color.
The suffocating smell of blood attracted groups of vultures, hovering anxiously over the battlefield, ready to rush down to have a full meal at any time.
The sun gradually sets westward, and the setting sun begins to burn in the sky, but the sound of killing by the lake of Mirror shows no sign of a stop.
At this moment, a commotion suddenly came from behind the troll army.
A troll commander soldier rushed to Gambic and reported loudly: "General! There are about 40,000 or 50,000 human troops in the rear!"
Gambic was not surprised but happy, and laughed: "Okay! That little lion finally dared to show his head! Haha, let's teach him another lesson!"
The clan emblem of the St. Heard family, the Lord of the North, is a golden lion. The "little lion" that Gambic calls obviously refers to the son of the Duke of St. Heard - Marquis Charles.
This marquis should have been the supreme commander of the human side in this battle, and was in charge of Jinghu Camp and fought the trolls to the death.
But he obviously did not want to, or, dared, faced the troll army head-on.
Instead, an emergency conscript order was issued, attracting a group of mercenaries and militias to fill the Jinghu camp as bait.
He himself led a real army to attack from the rear while the trolls attacked Jinghu Camp.
Although the whole plan is a bit cruel, it is also a good plan.
If they can really catch the trolls off guard and make them unable to look after each other, they may be able to win in one battle.
Unfortunately, for some reason, this strategy has obviously been understood in advance by the commander of the troll army and prepared to deal with it.
So, when Marquis Charles led his army to the rear of the troll army, he did not have the terrain as he expected, but instead hit an iron plate head-on.
A fierce battle begins here.
——————————
The night is already dark.
Half a bright moon hangs in the air, and the cold light shines in the forest.
A team of human cavalry was camping in the forest, but they did not dare to make fire and cook, worried that they would expose their target and attract pursuers behind them.
It has been three days since the defeat of Jinghu Lake.
After three days of escape, killing, and bleeding, this team that originally had more than 500 people is now only more than 100 people left.
Under the siege of the troll wolf cavalry army, it is indeed a miracle that they can survive until now.
Of course, this is also because their combat effectiveness is indeed strong.
Moreover, there is one of them.
Although in terms of head-on fights, the mage is completely beaten by knights of the same level, or even warriors, because no one will stand foolishly and wait for the mage to finish singing without interrupting or dodging.
But on the battlefield, the role of a mage is far greater than that of a knight of the same level.
The ice wall that blocks the wolf cavalry is a good example.
It was a third-level spell that instantly ended the lives of hundreds of wolf cavalrymen.
But if a third-level knight faces hundreds of wolf cavalry, even if there are no professionals among these wolf cavalry, he will die desperately under the siege of the opponent.
At most, you can pull dozens of cushions on your back.
The forest was quiet, with only the occasional sound of horses and the faint howling of owls.
In the camp, most of them were eating hard bread silently, and only a few leaders gathered together and whispered to discuss how to get rid of the pursuers behind them.
"Meow!"
"Xiaobai, don't run around!"
Colin chased Xiaobai's figure and came to the center of the camp.
"Sorry, it's naughty."
"fine."
The female mage grabbed the kitten trying to crawl on her, held it in her arms and stroked it.
Seeing this, Colin sat down and didn't see any of it.
The female mage seemed to have noticed Colin's little calculation, so she did not drive him away, but asked, "Which knight are you?"
Colin looked up at the female mage.
The black veil covered most of her face, leaving only a pair of deep blue eyes, as if reflecting the deepest desire in everyone's heart.
"My name is Colin, Colin Angel."
