Chapter 272 There Is an Ambush

"What? Baron Dior led the army alone and went to ambush ahead of time?"

Prince Nicholas was taken aback, he thought for a while, and said: "The Remnant Alliance has lost a lot of elites, and the leader Kelman is still strong. It is too much to ambush Kelman with the team of several hundred people under Baron Dior. Lost."

Julien: "Yeah, I persuaded him to come..."

Prince Nicholas added: "However, this is indeed a genius idea. When I was formulating the battle plan, I only thought about defeating the vanguard and giving them a disarm, but I didn't consider setting an ambush to annihilate them in advance. Baron Dior, a military genius."

Julien wiped his sweat: "Yes, yes, in fact, I also trust his judgment very much, and I handed over the most elite cavalry to his command..."

"Why didn't you go with him?" asked Prince Nicholas.

Julien said quickly: "We...we were worried about the safety of His Royal Highness at that time."

During the battle, Prince Nicholas didn't ask more, just nodded slightly, and then continued to charge.

Originally, Nicholas only planned to chase after a dozen miles before stopping and returning to the Black Rock Fortress for defense. Now he has changed his mind and has to chase all the way. Even if he arrives at the battlefield half an hour late, he can still play a role in supporting Bai Xiaowen.

Julien, who followed Prince Nicholas's horse ass, said, "Dior is about to develop."

Cecilia's expression had returned to her initial indifference: "He must survive first." After speaking, she jumped out like a sharp arrow.

...

Black Iron Gorge.

Bai Xiaowen's chance to seize the opportunity actually only has about an hour.

In other words, he set off an hour earlier than the Remnant Allied Forces. Counting the speed advantage of the Remnant Allied Forces, this hour's time will be shortened by half.

Not much can be done in just half an hour.

Fortunately, the dangerous terrain of Hei Tie Gorge is a natural ambush location. Bai Xiaowen ordered his soldiers to start digging stones from the middle of the valley, making the second half of the valley a pit on the left and a ditch on the right, which were uneven.

Another group of soldiers fell trees, transported them to the northern exit of the valley, piled them up, and greased them.

As for the extra stones, except for some of the roadblocks, the rest were transported to both sides of the mountain.

"Come! Lord Boss, they are here!" Harvey, who was looking at the wind in the distance, shouted.

Bai Xiaowen, who was instructing the soldiers to throw grease on the withered grass on the ground, nodded when he heard the words: "Everyone goes up the mountain, the veterans are in the first half of Taniguchi, and the new recruits are in the second half, hurry up!"

There are about two or three hundred veterans. Except for some elites, most of the others are ordinary template soldiers above level 4, and they still have certain combat effectiveness. These people are also the reliance Bai Xiaowen used to deal with the collapse of the Allied Forces.

As for the recruits, their strength is relatively weak, and if they face each other with the elite soldiers of the remnant, they will flee in a few rounds. Therefore, Bai Xiaowen arranged them on the mountains on both sides of Hei Tie Gorge as assistants.

A few minutes later, cluttered footsteps sounded, and several wolf cavalrymen with obvious burns on their bodies were in front, followed by troll headhunters and monitor lizard knights.

"Okay, God helped me." Bai Xiaowen used his insight skills to look at a few wounded soldiers. These elites of the remnants have a negative state of halving all attributes on their bodies! I don't know what kind of backhand Nicholas used to turn the tide of the battle.

The vanguard commander, the giant maul berserker Kelman rode the monitor lizard at the end. The few remnant leaders who originally followed him have disappeared, either dead or scattered among the chaotic army.

However, only elites have the negative state of "halving all attributes". As the leader, Kelman's state is basically intact, and his attributes have not been deducted.

Bai Xiaowen sighed secretly, if Kelman also hit the debuff that halved all attributes, the battle would be much easier. But fortune and misfortune depend on it, if you can kill Kelman who is in good condition,

The battle rating should be much higher, after all, it is a senior boss.

Soon, several people in front of the defeated soldiers ran to the middle of the destroyed canyon and found an abnormality.

Normally, this anomaly would be fed back to Kelman within ten breaths. But now, the pioneer army of the remnants is in chaos, and when word of mouth finds an abnormality, the broken Kelman has already arrived in the middle of the canyon.

Seeing the different depths of potholes dug on the ground, Kelman's expression became solemn. He jumped off his mount, his nose twitched, and he soon smelled a hint of grease.

Kelman crouched down and touched the dry grass on the ground.

His face changed, he stood up abruptly, and shouted out the classic three words that many generals have already said, and there will be more generals in the future:

"...There is an ambush!"

The red flags on a white background were displayed, and above the canyons on both sides, two rows of human soldiers suddenly stood up, shouting and throwing torches and stones downwards. Some soldiers who were good at archery shot rockets!

With a loud bang, the flames fell on the withered grass and burned roaringly.

It is worth mentioning that these oils are all the materials that Bai Xiaowen scavenged through the plague nemesis industry in Hongye Collar.

The residents of Hongye City encountered such a temporary manager, and they didn’t know whether it was lucky or unlucky. At least in the next few months, they could only live the hard days of holding wowatou in their hands and not a drop of oil in the dishes-if And vegetables.

The taste of being burned by flames is not pleasant, not to mention the stones that fall like raindrops? Many defeated soldiers rushed to the north exit regardless of the 3721.

"Lord Overseer, the exit of the canyon is not far ahead, let's rush!" Several guard orcs beside Kelman shouted loudly in the language of the remnant.

"Can't rush! Since the enemy has set up an ambush, the road ahead will definitely be blocked. Let's go back, the rear army will change to the front army, and rush out from the south entrance!" Kelman shouted, "Go and pass my order!"

"Lord Overseer, the current situation makes it impossible to send orders..." an orc guard said helplessly.

The survivors, who had just been defeated and were scorched by the mountain fire, slammed around like headless flies in the black smoke environment. How could they regroup and fight back?

Kelman sighed: "This is my fault... I didn't expect that in this remote frontier, human beings would actually arrange a magician who can use the forbidden spell! The injuries on your body will not recover in a short time. already."

Several orc guards were all at a loss.

"Fortunately, Overseer, you have the treasure bestowed by the great shaman, and the injury was temporarily cured. As long as you are here, we will have hope!" An orc guard apparently regarded Kelman as a life-saving straw.

Kelman nodded and said solemnly: "Call everyone who can be notified, come with me!" After that, he jumped on the monitor lizard, turned his head, and rushed towards the entrance of the valley on the south side. 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit our school
