Arad's Sword

Chapter 48 The Birch Encounter

As soon as Midi's army was discovered, General Chihu immediately issued a pursuit order.

The Red Flame Legion quickly cut into this not very dense forest. The soldiers did not lose their direction because of the complicated terrain. On the contrary, they formed a team of ten people and formed a formation that could support each other at any time. Keep going at a constant speed.

Experienced centurions and thousand commanders conduct larger-scale command without the use of horns, which are tools that easily reveal their intentions, and do not use inconspicuous flags. High-level knights communicate through efficient magic and order.

You know, there are a considerable number of magicians in the Scarlet Flame Legion, and at this moment, they are all scattered among the various centurions, taking on the duties of messengers.

At first glance this may seem like a luxury.

But in fact, it is rigid and rigid to only regard magicians as firepower points and forts. Any general who really knows how to use troops will not simply think that the so-called magic is a large-scale attack.

General Red Fox is obviously familiar with how to use magicians most effectively, and the Red Flame Legion is obviously very familiar with such a way of cooperation.Obviously in the birch woodland, there are streams, river beaches, dense shrubs, and countless tall trees. The visibility and field of view are very poor, and in the process of pursuit, the formation of the Red Flame Legion is completely without any confusion , although scattered, there is a hint of pressure in it.

It is like countless sharp swords, at the same angle, at the same speed, and at the same distance, they are inserted straight into the forest, leaving no gaps or loopholes for the enemy at all.

Even Midi has to admit that the Scarlet Flame Legion is indeed one of the most powerful troops in the Principality of Bel Mare, and the most powerful deterrent of force in the hands of the Seth family.

Unfortunately, what they are facing is the elves who are all too familiar with the forest, and the witch of the mist who is so unpredictable in her tactics.

The thick fog soon began to fill up.

The fog wasn't so thick that it didn't even obstruct the line of sight, it just added a little moisture to the soldiers' clothes.

However, with this level of concentration, the area that the Fog Demon's "Feast of the Night" can cover is unimaginably large.

Every move of the Red Flame Legion is completely under Alice's control.

Whether it's encirclement, interspersed, or rapid march-style pursuit, all are fed back to Midi one by one.All kinds of opportunities were exposed to Midi one by one.

However, Midi did not launch an attack. Although doing so would make General Chihu feel uncomfortable, it could not form an effective kill. After all, this was an encounter. Apart from the advantage of terrain, Midi did not have any single blow Chance to kill.

And more importantly, if the attack is launched with the help of the information fed back by the Fog Demon, the information that "the enemy can completely control the battlefield situation" will soon be grasped by General Red Fox, and then be guarded and even used in reverse.

Therefore, Midi did not choose to attack. Instead, he led the troops to retreat.

The power of the high-level elves "Wind Guard" makes the elves march faster than the soldiers of the Scarlet Flame Legion. Therefore, the elves can leave calmly.

But of course Midi would not simply retreat, but during the retreat, secretly launched wave after wave of offensives.

This offensive is not aimed at the main force of the Red Flame Legion who are busy chasing, but the scouts cruising around.

Scouts are the eyes and ears of the army, especially in forest areas, the more scouts killed, the slower the army's reaction speed will be.

In addition, this is the only part where there is no difference in the comparison of the strength of the two sides. After all, although the total number of scouts in the Red Flame Legion is not small, most of the scouts act alone, and they are at most a six-member team during long-distance investigations.During the battle, there was no gap between the two sides.

The Witch of the Mist began to chant long and obscure incantations, like the melody played by a cello, melodious and deep.

The Fog Demon, who received the master's order, activated the second ability, strengthening.

The elves are better at fighting in the forest than humans, and with the slight but real acceleration, refreshment and recovery of the fog demon, the gap is further enlarged, reaching the point where life and death can be decided.

Thus, the unilateral hunt began.

A Red Flame scout was hiding in the treetops. He was wearing a green leather armor that blended with the dense branches and leaves, and he felt very safe.However, the next moment, accompanied by a gust of wind, an extremely thin arrow feather flew over, and it was nailed into the scout's left eye in an instant.

The scout was instantly killed, and fell into the green leaves just like that. He didn't understand how he was exposed until he died.

"Wearing emerald green clothes in the dark green and dark green canopy, it's too conspicuous." An elf scout commented, shook his head, put away his longbow, and quickly shifted his position.

In the eyes of elves, "green" is not a color, bean green, tea green, emerald green, jade green, stone green, leaf green, dark green, spring green, winter green, light green, brown green, blue green, olive green, apple green, moss Green, gray lake green, crystal green, malachite green, fluorescent green...

Even the most famous painter would not dare to claim to be good at green in front of an elf, let alone a scout?
Another Red Flame scout slowly but firmly touched a bush.He has already discovered that an elf is hiding there, so he is going to go there and get rid of this colleague first.This scout used to be a hunter in the forest, and it was not that he had never dealt with elves, so he was quite confident about how to avoid being discovered.

But the elf scout's hearing seems to be a little supernormal. When the scout touched it and was about to draw a knife, the elf was already prepared and launched an attack first!

The two couldn't hide it, and they immediately fought into a ball. The two poisoned daggers were coming and going, with a dangerous cold light.

It's just an assassin who is 1 level lower than me, why is he so strong?The Red Flame Scout thought in surprise in his heart, and then, he was stabbed in the heart.

After solving the opponent, the elf was also out of breath and seriously injured.However, at this moment, the surrounding mist gradually gathered, washing away the toxicity on the wound, and even making it heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Soon, the elf regained his combat power, and once again lurked into the depths of the forest, leaving only the dead body of the enemy behind.

Situations like this and the like happen all the time in every corner of the birch woodland.

The elves were not without casualties. However, instead of making these proud elves feel intimidated by the blood and death, it aroused their stronger will to fight.The two armies still kept their distance, but the scouts shuttled and fought more frequently.

Until now, General Chihu, who was focused on the pursuit, realized that his scout troops had suffered heavy casualties unknowingly.

"This bastard, is he going to fight guerrilla warfare?" Fenrir gritted his teeth and said, "Should we take the scout back?"

Although thinking of Midi makes his teeth itch, Fenrir made a judgment with common sense. The purpose of eliminating the scouts is to block the audiovisual, and to block the audiovisual. Guerrilla warfare.

However, General Red Fox shook his head: "Keep chasing, this birch forest has no depth, I don't believe he can keep running like this! Let the scouts be more vigilant, but they must not retreat, you must keep an eye on me !"

Under this death order, the Red Flame Legion ignored the casualties of the scouts, like a red-eyed hound, biting Midi's back, chasing without any hesitation.

Finally, when the setting sun was about to set and the new moon quietly rose, the two parties finally walked out of the birch forest and came to an extremely open plain.There is almost no effective shelter here, and the field of vision is extremely wide. Even at night, you can look at a considerable distance with the help of the moon and stars.

"When you get here, do you think you can run away?" General Chihu sneered, and made a decision without hesitation, "Let the rest of the scouts keep an eye on them, and don't let those long-eared scouts wait until night." Moved away without a sound, tonight, we will attack overnight!"

General Red Fox didn't think that the attack could bring any surprises to the opponent. After all, Midi's military talent had already emerged, and he suffered losses not once or twice.

Besides, after chasing for more than half a day, the soldiers' physical strength was not small. For the elves who relied on the advantage of the camp to attack at night, the Red Flame Legion might suffer even more.

But so what?
There are 7000 people on our own side, and only 2000 people on the other side. All we need to do is to continue to pursue and exert pressure at the same time, launching wave after wave of non-stop offensives from day to night. An army of only [-] people will collapse sooner or later.

Even if Midi couldn't be forced to fight head-on, General Chihu believed that he could still drag Midi down directly.

"Master Fenrir." General Red Fox turned to the blond boy beside him, his future master.

"Are you going to fight? Please let me go together this time. I'm really unwilling to kill that bastard with my own hands!" Fenrir was already fully dressed, looking eager to try.

"No, I hope you can be stationed in the camp of the Chinese army tonight, and have a good rest and conserve your strength." General Chihu said so.

"Potter, what do you mean?" Fenrir's face suddenly darkened.

General Chihu, whose name was directly called out, smiled, and said, "Master Fenrir will be in charge of tomorrow's general attack."

"I'll be in charge of the general attack?" Being able to gain the command of the Scarlet Flame Legion, even if it was temporary, is precious. In a flash, even Fenrir, who is quite a city, suddenly turned his anger into joy, and his face was full of joy.

"That's right. Tonight's night attack is of great importance. Whether you can hang Midi and improve morale depends on the results of this battle. Therefore, I must go out personally, take the lead and lead the attack. As long as this The battle has consumed enough troops of the opponent, and we may win the battle tomorrow!" General Chihu talked eloquently, his eyes gleaming with confidence.

You know, although he is a general, he is also a swordsman with a full level of 40. He is the highest level among the tens of thousands of soldiers on this plain!
What kind of results will the night attack have if a strong person at level 40 opens the way?Fenrir felt his blood boil just thinking about it.

That night, the elves' troops and the Scarlet Flame Legion set up camps on two high grounds [-] kilometers apart. Under the night, the fires of the camps echoed each other, making them look extraordinarily warm.

And under the cover of darkness, a team of 500 people left the camp quietly like flowing water, and ran towards the elves' camp from the side.

"Midi Asrex, let me let you know what is the real battlefield and what is the real tactic!" General Red Fox said with a sneer.

And just over ten minutes after this sneak attacking force left, after tossing from the two armies all afternoon, it had been left behind in the birch forest, and the eyes of countless beasts shining with dark green light lit up.

Those were the eyes of the night sabers.
