The King Chapter 425

  Chapter 425 Victory at Fort Augustus

  The burning tent illuminated the night and reflected the wreckage on the ground, filling the atmosphere directly.

  The soldiers of the Allied Forces of the Remnants of the Ancients who were killing heartily in the city also sensed that something was wrong outside the city, but it was too late to evacuate at this moment.

  From the moment the horse stepped into the coalition, the collapse of the remaining army became a foregone conclusion. Weary soldiers and weak troops against the elite of the human race, the battle was one-sided from the very beginning.

  Facing the attack of the Alpha Kingdom army, the various tribes that are not affiliated with each other can only fight on their own, and there is no effective resistance at all.

   "Withdraw!"

   "Get out of the city immediately!"

  The generals of various ethnic groups on the front line issued orders to retreat one after another. Everyone knows that once the camp outside the city is lost, the offensive and defensive momentum will be reversed.

   Especially the blow to the morale of the army is even more incalculable.

   The orderly retreat that was supposed to take alternate cover has now become a swarm of bees rushing out.

  The composition of the coalition forces of the ancient survivors is too complicated. Everyone is wary of their allies. No one can guarantee that they will leave cover. After the teammates left the city, they left them and ran away.

   It is not clear whether there is an enemy stealing camp outside the city, and the terrified coalition soldiers can only retreat desperately, and their combat effectiveness has dropped by more than half in an instant.

  "The enemy army has been routed, Raquel sent an order to order all the defenders to launch a counterattack immediately, and these remnants cannot be allowed to run away!"

  The main force of the enemy still exists, but in the dark scene, neither side can figure out the specific situation of the other side, so the coach naturally needs to build confidence for everyone.

  Morale, this thing is very mysterious. The defenders, who were originally distracted and only fighting for their lives, gradually mustered up the courage to launch a counterattack after seeing the enemy's desperate retreat.

  In normal times, a counterattack of this magnitude is nothing at all. But the entanglement of the defenders at this moment has greatly delayed the retreat of the troops of all ethnic groups.

  On the battlefield, time is life. In the blink of an eye, one large army camp fell, followed by the second and third... one after another.

  Under the blessing of the night, the panic-stricken foreign coalition soldiers finally left the camp overwhelmed, chose a direction at random and fled for their lives.

  Under the tribal civilization system, if one person takes the lead in escaping, it is often a group of tribes running away.

   The big picture, that's not what ordinary soldiers need to think about, they just want to stay alive.

   "The situation is not good for offering sacrifices to the Lord. The human army has stolen the camp, and there is chaos everywhere at the moment, I'm afraid..."

   Before the middle-aged elf finished speaking, Remo nodded. The current situation is really unexpected.

  The biggest sequelae of the multitude of races is the difficulty of command. No one can convince soldiers of all races. Once chaos occurs, it is often irreversible.

   "Let's wait and see the situation first. If the army that invaded the city fails to withdraw to rescue the camp in time, let's find a chance to retreat!"

  It is one thing to support the coalition forces of the ancient survivors, but it is unnecessary to stay and be buried with them. Especially since they just released the forbidden spell during the day, all earth magicians are now a burden.

  The war reached a critical moment, the two sides fought together, seeing that there was no need for their own command, Hudson also appeared on the battlefield.

  Forcibly ordering Maxim to shrink in size, one person, one dragon, and one bear shuttled across the battlefield, constantly using black hands to beat Sap.

   Especially the big giant is Hudson's favorite. It is right to shoot the arrow directly, and even the time of aiming can be saved.

  The only problem is that Bear Stearns always likes to compete with him for heads. Many times, the opponent's head will be blown off before the arrow flies.

  Maxim was also not idle, as soon as he sneezed, the big man fell down.

  If someone approaches, the tail and paws will instantly become giants, followed by a pile of meat paste.

  The cruel killing scene made Hudson almost vomit.

  The most eye-catching performance on the battlefield is the 5,000 monster cavalry, which properly attack the sharp sword. Wherever the army points, there will be a sea of ​​corpses in an instant.

   Before the coalition forces of the ancient survivors could withdraw, they had already pierced through the camp of the coalition forces that stretched for more than a dozen miles, and then rushed straight across the battlefield.

   Seeing the increasing number of deserters, the elves who were watching the situation couldn't bear the pressure.

   "Withdraw!"

   Priest Remo, who lacked experience in command, had no idea that a large group of people would evacuate together, which was the easiest way to attract enemy attacks.

  Hundreds of elves acted together, instantly attracting the attention of the monster cavalry.

   They are also alien races, and they are also divided into ranks and ranks within the human race. Compared with the ancient survivors who are not taken seriously, the elves have always been the focus of attention.

   When it comes to the battlefield, this "focus" is naturally transformed into a key target. Now that they have met, naturally they cannot be allowed to escape.

   With hordes of elves attracting firepower, the demoralized coalition soldiers hurriedly seized this once-in-lifetime opportunity to escape.

   Hudson, who couldn't stand the scene of his monster killing the enemy brutally, left the inner city decisively, and bumped into the fleeing elf team as soon as he came out.

   Without waiting for his order, Bear Stearns, who was addicted to playing sap, had already turned into a mini bear and charged over.

  A pure and lovely young elf lady was knocked into the air without knowing what happened.

   "There are enemies!"

   After shouting loudly, Priest Lei Mo hastily set up the magic defense cover.

   Too bad it doesn't make any sense, "crispy elf mage" is no joke. Being approached by the bear of the earth, even the elf mage in the sanctuary would suffer a lot, not to mention that he is only an eighth-level great magister.

   After smashing the magic shield with a slap, and incidentally smashing an arm of Priest Remo, Bear Stearns, who had taken advantage of it, immediately left in a blink of an eye.

   "Sacrifice to the Lord!"

   After all the elves exclaimed, they were vigilant, vigilant, and curative. Priest Li Mo successfully recovered a small life, but the short delay also ruined their best time to escape.

  The brigade of monster cavalry came over, and there was also a dragon and a bear watching closely.

   "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

   After shooting all the arrows in his hand, Hudson picked up the artifact "Sacred Sword of Light", but was embarrassed to find that he had no chance to perform by himself.

  Maxim, who is fully fired, has a persuasion attribute. After seeing his big man, all the enemies decisively chose to get out of the way.

  Melee combat with a giant dragon is a game that only monsters in the sanctuary dare to play. The desire to survive in the subconscious will instinctively make everyone choose to distance themselves.

   "Rush out!"

   Priest Li Mo, who reacted, hastily ordered.

  The order at this moment was obviously a bit late, and the monster cavalry surrounded by three sides had already killed them. There is no army on the remaining side, but there are dragon knights blocking the way!

  In the blink of an eye, the two sides fought together. Hudson soon discovered something was wrong, it seemed that the group of elf magicians were out of order.

  The elf guards were desperately trying their best. They, a group of mages, released their magic, and they kept clicking and searching, as if they were paddling water.

  Especially there are dozens of elves among them, holding the magic wand without moving, as if they were preparing for hand-to-hand combat.

   "The enemy magician has no magic!"

   Having come to this conclusion, Hudson couldn't help but smile. A magician who has exhausted his magic power is like an ordinary person whose body has been hollowed out.

   No wonder the enemy wants to break out of the encirclement together at this moment. It's not that they don't know how high the risk of doing this is, but that after choosing to disperse and break through, none of these elf magicians can escape.

  The most important magicians are all killed, so what's the use of running out with a few guards?

  Elves are also divided into grades, grades, grades, and grades. Just like the situation of other races in the mainland, the status of magicians of the same level is slightly higher than that of other professions.

  According to the usual practice, the entire army of the magician group was destroyed, and if the guards protecting the magician group survived, they would also be executed.

   "Stop attacking!"

   Hudson ordered decisively.

  Mage groups have important strategic value in any race. Although he wanted to destroy these elves, his reason told him that the group of elves in front of him had greater value.

  The kingdom's army stopped attacking, and the besieged elves also stopped, turning their attention to Priest Remo.

  Do you want to go all out? This thought was stifled by Remo as soon as it arose.

  Although there are many magicians in the elves, they cannot afford to be squandered at will. If these hundreds of people are damaged, they will also feel pain.

  Deep in his heart, Lei Mo had already scolded the Allied Forces of the Remnants of the Ancients bloody. One by one greedy for merit and rushing forward, they didn't even care about the big camp.

   In fact, this conclusion is very hasty. The troops left behind in the camp were not weak. The main reason for the scene in front of us was that the officers and soldiers who stayed behind were the ones who attacked the city during the day.

   All creatures with mortal bodies need to rest when they are tired. Such a simple truth, the commanders of all ethnic groups naturally understand.

   Let the army take turns to attack, there is nothing wrong with it. The only problem is that they didn't expect that the Alpha Kingdom's army could kill them so quickly.

   "Marshal Hudson Koslow of the Alpha Kingdom is here, please come and talk to the representatives of the elves!"

  These ancient battlefield etiquette have long been corrupted in previous continental wars, but that doesn't mean they are useless.

   As the party with absolute advantage, Hudson doesn't mind showing his tolerance. But it was only for a moment, part of the enemy troops in the city had already withdrawn, and they were still waiting for him to clean up, but there was no time to waste too much time here.

   "The elves sacrificed to Remo, and met Marshal Hudson!"

   While speaking, the elf old man walked out calmly, as if he was not worried that Hudson would be against him at all.

   "Priest Lei Mo, the end of today's war is very obvious. You have fulfilled your duty as a soldier, and there is no point in continuing to struggle.

Surrender!

  According to the ancient covenant of all races, I guarantee that your lives will not be threatened. After the war is over, the elves can leave after paying the ransom for you. "

   Hudson said blankly.

  The Covenant of Ten Thousand Races was established by the various races in the mainland in order to resist the invasion of foreign worlds in ancient times.

  After experiencing continental wars again and again, the rules inside have long been destroyed. Ninety-nine percent of the creatures on the entire continent have never heard of the "Covenant of Ten Thousand Races".

  Whether to surrender or not, this is a question that makes the elves feel prickly. Originally, with the arrogance of the old man, he would not consider "surrender" at all.

   But there is no way, and there is also a group of elf magicians who are besieged. Don't look at the quantity is only a few hundred, but the quality is high!

   To put it bluntly, the entire Moxi Principality couldn't make up such a lineup. Even if the Alpha Kingdom wants to gather so many mid-level and high-level magicians, it still needs to issue a recruitment order.

  Seeing that the old man hesitated, Hudson immediately added: "I know elves are not afraid of sacrifice, but you don't think about yourself, but also about the inheritance of the race.

  The previous continental wars, once involved, are useless and no one can escape unscathed.

  Since the nobles chose to send troops to join the war, the casualties must have been tens of thousands. Maybe you are not short of this kind of strength now, but it does not mean that you will not lack it after the war.

  For the sake of the continuation of the race, I suggest that Your Majesty the Priest should consider it carefully. After all, the fertility of the elves is really worrying, there is no need to sacrifice your life for a war that does not belong to you. "

  Fudge, flick to your heart's content.

  The inheritance of the elves has nothing to do with him. If he didn't want to use these elves as bargaining chips in future negotiations, he wouldn't bother to persuade them here.

   Looking back, Priest Li Mo read the desire for life from the eyes of the elves. Being able to survive, no one wants to die.

  Hudson's words became their best psychological comfort. This is not their war, they are here to help, and there is no need to fight for the alliance of the ancient survivors.

   "Dear Marshal Hudson, we can surrender, but you must ensure that we will not be insulted!"

   Priest Remo suppressed his emotions and said.

   They are all old elves, and Hudson naturally knows why he accepted the surrender.

  On the continent of Aslante, only valuable creatures are eligible to live. There is no doubt that the group of elf magicians in front of them has enough value.

   "Yes, I guarantee with the reputation of the nobility, as long as you follow the rules after you surrender, you can enjoy the treatment of prisoners of war in the Covenant of Ten Thousand Races."

   Hudson pretended to be impatient and said.

   Realizing that Priest Morey, who had no money to struggle with, sighed, he handed over the magic wand in his hand to Hudson.

   Immediately afterwards, all the elves also put down their weapons. The original tense emotions no longer exist, and there is only relief for the rest of my life after the catastrophe.

  It is not an easy task to lose a life in a race war.

  Especially in the last few hundred years, there has been very little acceptance of captives in continental wars.

   It made a good start, and Hudson's killing intent faded, and he immediately ordered to his troops: "Send down the order and let all the troops shout: Surrender without killing, we accept the prisoners!"

   The rules of the game have always been formulated by the strong. In order to reduce the enemy's resistance and reduce the loss of the army, Hudson does not mind modifying some rules according to local conditions.

  The earth-shattering shouts came out, making the alien coalition forces fighting on their own even more popular.

   Seeing that their camp had been lost, many soldiers of various ethnic groups who broke out were lost in confusion.

   "Run!"

   I don't know who yelled, and the already chaotic battlefield became even more chaotic.

  The foreign coalition forces that are not generals, and generals are not generals, involuntarily staged a mob.

  The saddest thing is the giant family, big people are always easy to receive special care. Even if you are running for your life, you should be more eye-catching than others.

  The magic flares that flew out from time to time illuminated their positions clearly, and various arrows kept flying towards them.

  The scene in front of him made Hudson understand why the powerful giants fell.

  When the wind blows, these big guys are always at a disadvantage. When fighting against the wind, they are living targets on the battlefield.

  The so-called "shoulder-to-shoulder dragon" is purely putting gold on one's face. A dragon can go to the sky and enter the sea, but can a giant do it?

   It is true that a big giant can kill minions, but that is only limited to minions. When encountering strong men of the same level, their huge bodies are a burden instead.

  The defense of giants is indeed very good. High-level giants are immune to ordinary bows and arrows, but now is the era of magic crossbows.

   Many big giants were shot into hedgehogs during the battle without reacting.

  Hudson personally appraised it. Once the Holy Sword of Light is released, even a 30-meter-long man can break the defense with one sword.

  Watching the big guys keep falling, the stimulation to the soldiers of the foreign coalition forces was huge, and the number of deserters on the battlefield increased sharply.

  As if they didn't see these guys, the Kingdom's army just picked up the alien coalition forces left on the battlefield, as if deliberately letting them go.

   Realizing this, the high-level leaders of the bereaved coalition forces are helpless. This is the enemy's overt conspiracy, and they cannot stop it at all.

   Seeing that the general situation was over, some generals of the race who reacted quickly simply ran away with their own troops.

   Fly separately when disaster is imminent.

  The first ray of sunlight shone at dawn, and the war had come to an end. Only a few foreign soldiers who reacted a step slower were still carrying out sporadic resistance.
