Blood Dragon

Section 350 III Order

"Master, the enemy army seems to be retreating quickly." A magic disk flew in front of Marvin, and the Tzeentch wizard on the magic disk bowed first, and then said. "Their reaction was timely. Should we speed up the pursuit?"

"No." Marvin gently touched his goatee. "Not too fast. Keep the current marching speed."

"But...they retreated very fast. In this case, they will retreat all the way to the city." The subordinate explained. "At the current speed, we can't catch up..."

"Do you think they are rabbits fleeing in panic?" Marvin said coldly.

"They can run faster than rabbits."

"It's a pity. Although they are faster than rabbits, they have the fangs of poisonous snakes." Marvin said.His expression was very calm.Some human beings have such a characteristic that when their emotions in a certain aspect reach a very strong level, they will express it in a reversed way.This kind of situation is not uncommon. For example, when people are extremely angry, they will laugh, and when they are extremely loving, they will turn to hate.Therefore, although Marvin is full of hatred and desire for revenge at the moment, on the surface, he is calmer and calmer than usual.

"I believe they are preparing for a counterattack." Marvin said with certainty. "Maybe somewhere ahead, they'll find a suitable terrain to do it. If we give up our vigilance... I'm afraid we will suffer a small loss. They are more cunning than you think, More decisive."

Wizard Hundu saluted, and the magic disc under his feet led him to run in another direction.Then another person came over and reported a situation to Marvin: just now the forward spotted the enemy scouts observing the appearance of the Chaos Legion.But these scouts are veterans, so as soon as the Chaos Legion noticed it, they retreated in time.

"I'm afraid they already have some understanding of the situation of our army." The subordinate reported. "My lord, I suggest sending troops to search the area carefully to find or expel the enemy's scouts."

"No need." Marvin replied immediately. "Let them see. Anyway, now...we are not afraid of the enemy knowing our situation at all. Just these southerners can see...even if they see everything, even if they understand our army's strength and deployment, what does it matter? Not to mention just observing from a distance like this, even if they lurked in to find out all the details, they would just... bring the intelligence work back into balance. The crux of the matter is..." He didn't say the last paragraph.

The subordinates did not dare to ask again.But having said that, he also knows the current situation: Although the Chaos Legion is indeed strong, there are not many related scout troops.This is because the Chaos Legion under Ma Wen's command is dominated by heavily armed troops, and there are not many lightly armed troops.In particular, most of the lightly equipped marauder cavalry (light cavalry are naturally scouts) joined the Bloodfang Lord's command, and were completely wiped out in the previous annihilation battle.

There were reasons why Marvin made this kind of deployment in the first place - one of them was obviously to preserve his strength in the defeat.He originally intended to defeat Lord Bloodfang, and light cavalry—as we all know, is the easiest unit to flee from the battlefield.It's a pity that things didn't develop as he expected. His subordinates did evacuate the battlefield where Lord Bloodfang and Ashurfat were duel, but they got into the pocket formation carefully arranged by Beler.In the situation of being surrounded by the enemy on all sides, the casualties suffered by the lightly armed troops were much more serious than those of the heavily armed troops.These forces were annihilated even before Marvin flew away.

Because the light cavalry had suffered serious losses, it was now difficult for Marvin to organize troops to expel those annoying scouts like flies, and on the other hand, he could not send light cavalry to harass and contain the enemy's rear guard.

"Ashuruffat, just wait." Marvin said softly.Regardless of whether Ashrufat knew it or not, Marvin knew the combat power of the two armies very well.So what he said to his subordinates is actually true - no matter what tricks Ashurfat plays, there is a big difference in strength between the two sides.

Although Lord Bloodfang was defeated, Ashuruffat paid the price for his victory. His army loss should be between 2 and [-].If the combat power of the two sides is compared digitally, Marvin believes that the comparison between himself and Aishuruffat should be almost two to one.

This determines that, if it is not for the very favorable terrain, weather and other factors, or to be able to make targeted arrangements (just like the situation where Aishuruffat defeated the Lord of Bloodfangs before), or some unforeseen events occurred Anticipated emergencies (for example, Marvin was killed in battle), otherwise Aishuruffat would not be able to win.

However, Marvin also believed that, with Ashrufat's bold personality, he would never obediently retreat all the way back to Newstria City or Gaohua City.Don't look at Marvin being tricked by Ashuruffat before, but that was too unexpected.In terms of "knowing people", Marvin is actually very confident.Ashuruffat will try to fight back... and it will be the biggest mistake of his life.

They will come back for a real fight, and this battle...cannot be lost.

Speaking of which, Marvin really didn't expect that he would be forced to this extent, and resorted to the last trick.

Marvin had been doing this work as early as when he was pushing the Bloodfang Lord to invade the south.In the process of gathering troops for the Bloodfang Lord, Tzeentch's army was the slowest to assemble. This would have been a reason for others to suspect, but Marvin cleverly took advantage of the Bloodfang Lord's impatience and gave this unreasonable thing to rationalized.Lord Bloodfang launched the war more than half a year earlier than agreed, so Marvin could justifiably say that he hadn't assembled his army yet.

No one, not even the clever Rokin, the cunning and suspicious Sagas—not to mention Lord Bloodfang—had ever doubted this.The original war time was proposed by Marvin, so everyone took it for granted that Marvin would definitely prepare for the war according to the predetermined timetable-this is something that is easy to guess.Therefore, after the armies of other evil gods had finished their efforts and started to invade, Tzeentch's army arrived in pieces in batches.Everyone thought this was reasonable. It wasn't that Marvin was plotting or playing tricks, but that Lord Bloodfang's actions were too impatient and he moved too far in advance, which resulted in insufficient time for Marvin to prepare.Besides, didn't Marvin himself join the Chaos Legion immediately?

Everyone thinks that the time when Wizard Tzeentch is not playing tricks is when Wizard Tzeentch is really playing tricks.

That's right, Marvin played a trick here.The army he has assembled far exceeds the promise he made to Lord Bloodfang.This is the army he summoned by virtue of his status as a god-favored one.

This is also his last move.That's right, the task Tzeentch gave Marvin was quite complicated: on the one hand, Tzeentch's influence must be infiltrated into the southern kingdom, but at the same time, the other three evil gods had to be excluded.So when Marvin made the plan, he planned to complete it through a secret transaction.On the one hand, use Gruney's military power and White Castle to complete the work of this "breakwater" and keep the other three evil gods out; country.That's the best outcome.

But like all smart people, Marvin was prepared for the worst.If an agreement could not be reached in the end, then Marvin would have to rely on the armed force he controlled to occupy White Fort, destroying the resistance force of the southerners on the one hand, and resisting the troops of other evil gods on the other hand.

This is actually being attacked from both sides, and the wise will not do it.But when it really came to a point of no choice, Marvin had no choice but to do so.

As early as when Lord Bloodfang led his army to besiege Gaohua City, he had already secretly brought White Castle under his control.

This would have been an easy thing to expose.But Marvin has done a good job in this regard - the relevant magic communication was originally in charge of the wizard Tzeentch, so Lord Bloodfang naturally didn't know what information the magic communication would bring to Lord Bloodfang.At the same time, the flow of personnel and supplies between the front and the rear remained unobstructed: the new troops and supplies arrived smoothly, and the relevant personnel were unknowingly replaced by Marvin's people—so Lord Bloodfang didn't know the rear area at all. What happened.

That's right, this is the big trouble Marvin is facing now.For a long time in the future, he must become the defender of Grune against the Chaos Legion from the northern wilderness (of course, the other three evil gods except Tzeentch).At the same time, he must complete the penetration of Gruni.His only choice is to completely defeat Grune's army in a short time and eliminate his military power.Otherwise, under the long-term attack from both sides, his future can be imagined.

If Marvin fails... Tzeentch is not a particularly forgiving god.

……

"Your Majesty!" Essien rolled off his horse, knelt down on one knee, and saluted the little queen in front of him.

Because of showing her identity, the little girl was treated roughly.Essien's vanguard cavalry didn't know the little girl, but they couldn't turn a blind eye or do anything rude to a person who claimed to be the queen.So that's how things went.

In fact, when the little girl saw Essien, she was no less shocked than when Essien saw the little girl.How did Essien come here?Isn't he crusading against the rebellious lords over there?Why are you here?However, after all, she has been the queen for such a period of time, so she has developed some ability to be calm.At least on the surface, she just nodded coldly as a reply to Essien's salute.

"Your Majesty, minister..." Essien was about to speak when the little girl interrupted him.

"Essien, I don't have time to say polite words." The little girl pointed her finger forward, "The Chaos Legion took advantage of the false attack and entered the city of Newstria. Take your troops and take back the city of Newsteria immediately."

"This..." Essien really didn't expect the little girl to make such a request.He originally thought that he could take the opportunity to retreat with the little girl—he had already accomplished the feat of "saving the queen", and he didn't want anything else. "Your Majesty, what happened?"

"It's nothing. A thousand-strong remnants of the Chaos Legion raided the city of Nusteria and captured the outer city at night." Speaking of this, the little girl was really trembling with anger.The panic, uneasiness and escape process of last night have now become the anger in her heart. "Immediately drive this group of chaotic dregs out of the city... no, destroy them."

"Remnant soldiers?" Essien was keenly aware of this special word immediately.

"Ashrufat has defeated the main force of the Chaos Legion." The little girl replied. "This is a defeated army that was defeated on the battlefield. But they really chose a coincidental time: the city of Neustria is very empty now, with no more than a thousand defenders. Hold on. I..." She glanced back at her guard not far away.As mentioned earlier, her guards suffered huge losses, and now there are only about [-] wounded soldiers left, which can be regarded as annihilated.For the queen, this is definitely a big humiliation.Originally, she could only gnash her teeth from a distance, but now, she has the strength to take revenge.Just now she saw that there were at least tens of thousands of troops under the command of Essien.

Essien stole a glance at Cleo who was beside him, who was also looking at him.The two exchanged a knowing glance with each other.In this way, the credit for being delivered to your door is not in vain.

So Essien immediately lowered his head to the little girl, "I will never disgrace my life!"
