Chapter eight hundred and seventy seventh retreat, transfer

The enemy in the melee was directly disrupted by the 100 infantry array that suddenly rushed over. They had never retreated before, because a team of knights were leading their entourage back and forth to fight. Therefore, when Bucky and others rushed over, the knights who were rushing back and forth rushed over and kicked the horse to rescue the scene.

Bucky knocked away the enemy blocking him, glanced at the knights rushing towards him, and immediately shouted and signaled to his comrades: "Long spear! Prepare for long spear!"

"Here! Come and form a formation!"

Immediately, three or four soldiers holding a charger spear answered loudly. Bachie pulled the two comrades next to him to come. The infantry soldiers who heard the shouts leaned over. In just ten seconds, eight soldiers raised their shields and quickly formed a wedge-shaped shield formation, facing the team of knights that were about to rush over. The four soldiers holding a charger spear squatted in the center of the shield formation, stepped on the bottom of the spear, and pointed the spear tip towards the front...

A dozen knights waved their weapons to knock out the soldiers along the way. Facing the sudden appearance of the shield formation in front of them, they were also troubled by the moment. The leader of the Knight Connery believed that he was superb in martial arts. He held up his sword, and his battle aura attached to it and a light orange light lit up. When he was about to arrive at the shield formation, he suddenly waved his sword forward and roared: "Die for me!"

However, the energy of the long sword had not been released yet, and the sudden light lit up in front of him directly swallowed him.

The four charged spears collectively cast the energy in the crystal.

The violent impact hit the knights behind them together. Bucky, who was in the most shield formation, only felt the top of his head was hot, and his ears were deaf due to the huge noise. The dazzling light forced him to close his eyes. When he opened it again, the team of knights in front of him had turned into splashing red minced meat scattered on the ground...

"Continue to fight! Rush over!"

No one could hear this, but everyone instinctively continued to fight. They stepped on the pieces of meat that became crumbs under their feet, and silenced but firmly rushed into the enemy's team. The armor collided and the blades intersected. After a while, when Bucky's hand was shaking so much that he could not hold the sword, there were finally no objects around him who needed to be cut and killed...

The squad of the Dragon Lancer cavalry was chasing the fleeing nobles in the distance, and no one cared about the fleeing entourages and other soldiers. Bucky picked up a strip of cloth from the ground, wrapped his sword and hands together, and began to find his own company.

The rescue team led by the magician had already entered the field. Bucky checked his body up and down according to the training regulations. Fortunately, he found that except for more than a dozen pits on his armor, he had no external injuries.

He could touch a deep mark on the back of his helmet's head. Bucky, who was sweating, wanted to take it off and take a look, but the battle code did not allow him to take off his helmet without permission before the assembly signal appeared, so he gave up this idea and then began to look for any injured companions nearby.

After walking back and forth for a long time, Bucky found that there were very few Iversta infantry lying on the ground. Most of the injured ones were caused by the impact of the opponent's cavalry, but the armor and shields increased their survival chances. Bucky counted and found that there were no more than ten dead comrades in front of him.

After looking back, he noticed that the road-rotation puppet had extended the road to the battlefield. The bodies of the wounded and dead soldiers were transported onto the truck and returned to Taki Town for treatment and burial. The rest of the people were resting on the spot. Two hours later, the truck carrying food and new weapons and armor quickly arrived here. The Falcon reconnaissance planes in the sky also circled for several times before leaving.

Bucky didn't know what else to do next. Because his sixth squad was in the central area, only three people returned to the rear due to injuries during the entire battle, and no one was killed. This news made him feel less heavy. The supply truck brought drinking water and enough food for lunch. He had no appetite, but he ate a lot with his teeth.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the road-rocking puppet ran over the battlefield full of blood and corpses, continued to the south, and arrived at the outskirts of Soria at 5 o'clock in the magic clock.

The soldiers stood up to prepare for war, but the reconnaissance Dragon Spear Knight brought news: the enemy had given up on defense and surrendered.

Bucky breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the simple white flag on the city wall, knowing that there should be no more battle today...

*******

Viscount Boragorn was looking at the rising sun, feeling extremely heavy.

Among the forces controlled by Charles II, the one with the highest title and the strongest comprehensive strength is Count Harrison. In all the war, Viscount Boragorn can only be regarded as the fourth noble.

After the war mobilization order was issued, he gathered more than a thousand people in his territory to rush to Dunker City in the south of the temple. However, the rains for several days made the march unable to speed up, so he could only rush slowly with the aristocrats who were heading together.

Because everyone had the same destination, Viscount Boragorn followed along the same road with more than a thousand people led by the other two viscounts. But what they didn't expect was that after camping yesterday, many soldiers and refugees suddenly came from the north. After asking, the other party actually said that it was Everta's army that captured the city of Dunker...

Unlike other nobles who had never fought much, Boragon had always regarded Earl Mur as his teacher before, so he had a deeper understanding of the means and strategies of war. It was precisely because of this that when other nobles laughed at the group of people who didn't even know how to make up lies, he locked up the group of people in batches and then interrogated them personally.

The results he got were naturally surprised.

After dawn, Boragorn immediately found three other nobles to discuss the fight against the enemy, because from the direction of the enemy's advance, he was currently on the road of attack on the other side!

Such a proposal was naturally ridiculed, but Boragorn forced his scout team and dragged the nobles' personal soldiers to conduct long-distance investigations. The result was that he naturally discovered a large number of trucks and puppets moving forward.

So the soldiers of the entire camp immediately set up their camp, and after two hours of the whole team, they began to move forward, and met the infantry division from Iverta at noon.

Boragorn felt that he was well prepared and had an active advantage, but he never expected that the entire army would be destroyed on the spot within half an hour of war. The cavalry died of artillery fire, and the infantry were directly crushed, both equipment and force. He was close to 3,000 people on his side, but was dealt with by less than 2,000 infantrymen on the other side like stomping on ants...

Seeing that the situation was not good, Boragorn immediately sounded the horn to withdraw the troops. However, the soldiers recovered were only more than 600, and the soldiers of other nobles were more than a thousand. The wounded and injured and killed had to be thrown on the battlefield. He was so sad and angry that he could not have the intention to fight back, because the three nobles who were with them, their guardian knights, three magicians and guards, had been blown into pieces by the charging spear or crystal cannon, and he was probably unable to even restrain his body.

So what he could do was to try to gather the soldiers who had retreated from the battlefield and quickly retreated.

The viscount soon arrived at the outskirts of Soria, but this city was different from those fortresses. It was a completely open commercial city. It was originally just a developed town and was only called a "city" in the past ten years. Because it had never experienced war, the city wall was built very perfunctorily, with a height of only two or three meters, and there was no inner city. This kind of city wall can only be used to deal with horse thieves or bandits who occasionally attacked. Last year, the orcs were too lazy to attack the city, so they let go of a horse. But Viscount Boragorn knew that it was a dream to use it against the Ivota army with artillery fire!

Therefore, he led the remaining 1,000 people to forcefully requisition a large number of farmers in the city, pulled all the food that could be moved here, destroyed the ones that could not be moved on the spot, and then kept asking the team to continue to retreat southward.

When it was dark, his team had already left Soria City about ten kilometers. Because he had brought too many recruited farmers, the team could not continue to rush at night, so he planned to set off as soon as tomorrow morning. His target was the town of Lannis in the north of the Bordeaux River.

The Bordeaux River is a river flowing east-west, with a large width. It is a natural territorial boundary in the central and western part of the kingdom. It gradually disperses into a narrower river in the process of flowing eastward. Because of its existence, the irrigation of grain in the southern part of the kingdom is much more convenient than the northwest of the Iversota.

From here to the south is the territory of Count Mirno, and if you pass through this territory, you can reach the imperial city where Charles II is located.

In other words, the Bordeaux River is the largest natural barrier in the attack of Iversta. As long as the army can hold it up, Iversta's army will not be able to advance directly, posing a threat to the imperial city.

Because the width of this river is not large, there are stone bridges everywhere. Last year, the orcs raided directly into the hinterland through these bridges, and there was no obstacle along the way. This year, the nobles finally gained a memory and stationed some troops on the stone bridge and pontoon bridge to guard.

When Viscount Boragorn arrived here at this moment, he not only had to cross the river, but also had to demolish the bridge.

Viscount Boragorn had been optimistic about the war before, but now he realized that the enemy was not as vulnerable as the Royal Weekly said. On the contrary, the noble army on his side was like a mob that was about to collapse...

However, the brief battle also gave him a brief understanding of Iversa's military strength: the opponent had long-range weapons similar to magicians, but the number of people was not large. The number of people attacked was less than 2,000, which meant that the opponent might be fighting on multiple lines and the front line was very long. If he was the opponent, he could get the army to attack here, which means that Earl Harrison had probably taken it.
