Chapter 575 Saw Blood Sword

After being attacked by a small number of enemy troops that night, the Frost and Frost forces have encountered several attacks since then.

They sometimes appear in the middle of the night, sometimes when they just set up camp, and although there are not many, they can't be ignored when they hack and slash and set fire at will. In this way, the soldiers in the army were exhausted without a good rest for several days, and sometimes people fell asleep while walking.

"That's not going to work," Jenkins said, and then he asked the military mage beside him.

"Didn't the airship detect where the other party came from?"

"We have increased the search range, but due to the dense jungle around here, the visibility is not good and no valuable information has been obtained." The mage representative explained.

"It would be nice if there were scouts from the elves in the army...but that's all I can think about." Jenkins said casually.

In the Green Empire, the elves are still prosperous, and they once left a deep impression on the Seven Kingdoms of Xuehua in the "Battle of the Broken Bow".

At that time, the opponent's jungle parade turned over from the Sigh Mountains, causing a lot of trouble for the logistics supply of the Seven Kingdoms of Xuehua, and almost made the Apocalypse Fortress at that time out of food. Later, it was the Wings of the Falcon Kingdom who assisted to locate the whereabouts of these enemies and maintain the supply line.

Another day, approaching night, the army began to camp, and at this time it was about to leave Huangnan County.

In the big tent, Jenkins sat at the top, and several officers below began to report the situation.

"Tomorrow we will be able to leave this jungle area and go straight into the field next to Hopelander." A scout officer reported this. He was wearing a dark uniform with no reflective parts on his body, even the short sword and hand. The crossbow is also matte finished.

"The more you end up, the more careful you need to be. I've roughly guessed the opponent's strategy," Jenkins said.

He pushed the map caravan chess pieces. Several of them were close to the edge of the green area. In front of them was an open plain. Behind this open land, a city backed by mountains and seas was marked on the map, Hopelander.

"Using small-scale intrusions to exhaust our troops, and then waiting for work on the plains, starting a pulling and chasing battle, and then suddenly attacking and giving a fatal blow when we reveal our flaws."

"It's a good idea, but it's a pity that it's naive." A short and stocky army commander said with a look of disdain on his face.

"Under the cover and cover of the Golem Legion, I want to see how they tore our formation, relying on those weak mercenaries and half-hearted cavalry? The West Wind Cavalry has long since fallen, and even the peasant uprising has I can't resist, hehe."

"In that case, we might as well just repair here for two days, and then advance to attack Hopelander." An officer suggested.

"No." Jenkins shook his head.

"Crancia's reinforcements are already on the way, and their speed is not slow. We have to get ahead of them and lay down Hopelander, otherwise it will be a trouble later."

"Take a good rest tonight and strengthen your alert."

The lights outside the tent were bright, and this time the scouts expanded their reconnaissance range, and there were also several airships hovering in the day after tomorrow, closely observing the dark earth.

Compared to before, tonight the enemy may also know that the camp is heavily guarded, the first half of the night has been very quiet, and the soldiers in the camp also fell into a deep sleep.

A soldier sitting on the watchtower held a long spear, leaned his body on a wooden stake beside him, his head kept falling, just like fishing, sometimes falling, waking up again, and finally lowering again because of drowsiness, like this. Reciprocating cycle.

There are occasional insects in the surrounding jungle. Compared with the summer, the insects are much sparser now. After all, the weather is getting cooler and cooler.

The moon slowly rises and sets, and the time gradually reaches 3:00 in the morning, which is also the time when people sleep the deepest.

At this moment, a crimson comet suddenly appeared in a corner of the night sky, and then, several same crimson comets also rose.

This giant comet composed of countless flames streaked a long flame tail in the night sky, the high temperature distorted the atmosphere, and made a whirring licking sound. As it continued to approach, the bright firelight illuminated the sky like day, and the approaching surging magic and high temperature made people feel suffocating and oppressive.

The first to react was the mage on the airship in the sky. Several faint blue rays of light shot out from the airship, accurately hitting these giant meteorites flying from the sky and crossing a long parabola.

The dark blue light flashed away, leaving several fence-like tracks in the field of vision. It's a pity that such a hasty attack could not dispel the flames full of scorching magic power.

bang——

When these giant fireballs landed, they burst directly, and the flames spread in all directions along with the scorching air flow. Nearly a thousand people died in just one round of bombardment.

Then, the spreading flames burned directly in the camp, and billowing smoke rose along with tents, grain, sundries, dead branches, fallen leaves, etc. There was also shouting and confusion in the camp.

"Fire out!"

"So hot."

"Help me, I'm going to be burned, ah-"

One by one, the 'Firemen' waved their hands and ran around looking for water sources. Unfortunately, there are no lakes around here, and there is a lot of distance from the Caspian Sea. The flames on them can only grow stronger as they run.

"Damn it!" A mage stood on the airship, looking at the scene below, resentful, the mage robe on his body was also lifted and dropped by the heat wave below.

The golems that were on standby before were activated one after another, and then, under the adjustment of some of the mages, several ice lights shot out, covering them.

Pieces of land began to be cut off and put out.

Jenkins also walked out of the tent and was surrounded and protected by personal soldiers and several golems. His brows furrowed, and he issued an emergency order, and the camp was also busy.

"No, they're coming from the east!" A scout rushed to Jenkins, blood and stains still on his body.

"East, how is it possible, isn't that our rear side?" an officer asked in disbelief.

"I don't know, but this time there are a lot of people on the other side." The scout said out of breath.

As if to confirm the other party's statement, a scream of killing sounded from the back, and a group of soldiers dressed in various armors and burqas rushed to the camp from the back. They held weapons and torches, and kept firing and slashing.

With the actions of this group of people, a large area of ​​the jungle burned. It was originally the season of high autumn and the flames spread very fast.

Seeing this scene, Jenkins' eyes were split open, and he had to send a large number of people to stop it to stop the other party from continuing to set fire.

There was chaos in the camp, and when various people shouted and ran, there was a rush of hooves in the jungle outside on the west side. While the airship and the golem were putting out the fire, a group of cavalry crossed the open field in the dark. , approaching the camp on the edge of the jungle.

After approaching the woodland, they turned over and dismounted, and like the attacking troops in the rear, they raised their swords and lit torches, burning and driving the frightened soldiers away.

Under the attack from the two sides, Frost Rose's camp became even more panicked. Many soldiers were on the battlefield for the first time, and their psychological quality was not good. As a result, many people began to throw down their weapons and attacked the north and south. The side of the jungle rout.

The Golem Legion and the airship, which were originally relied on, were also unable to exert their power for a while because of various reasons such as the need to extinguish the fire, poor visibility, and difficulty in unifying the scene. Xiao, in panic and panic, trampled and ran each other.

On the side of the Frost and Frost Union, the soldiers' weak will and poor discipline were exposed in this night attack. Although the more than 10,000 veterans around veteran Jenkins could barely maintain, they still could not change the situation that gradually slipped into the abyss.

Looking down from the night sky, on the pitch-black ground, the long and narrow camp that stretched for several miles was caught in a blazing fire, and the forest fire was still spreading to the surroundings, billowing thick smoke filling the jungle.

And just when many generals were almost desperate, a clear and high voice suddenly sounded in the camp.

"quiet!"

"Those who shout indiscriminately, those who flee, kill without mercy!"

As the voice fell, a jagged crimson arc swept across, cutting several soldiers shouting in panic into pieces.

Many soldiers around were frightened on the spot, but shut up and stopped.

Afterwards, the red-haired figure, wielding a crimson blood-trough longsword, ran quickly in the camp, killing the soldiers who were walking around and shouting. As if they had received an order, the generals and guards who were originally located in the center also took their swords and quickly ran through the camp in groups, killing the soldiers who were in disorder.

These guards wearing dark cyan cloaks were all above Sequence 3, and it was easy to kill these fleeing soldiers. Under such a cold-blooded and cruel military order, order was finally restored in the camp. A high-ranking officer began to direct the team to defend and counterattack.

Tonight, is still doomed to sleepless.
