Chapter 638 The First Battle
Ford City is a border city in the former Chery Kingdom close to the Walter Empire. Although it has always paid attention to city defense, because the terrain here is relatively flat, and the front right is near the polar grassland, it is suitable for large-scale army operations. Not suitable for defense.

The deputy commander of the coalition forces, Clark, led an army of 30 from the border of the Walter Empire, and it took only three days to arrive at a place twenty miles outside of Ford City.

Clark has found out about the movements of Mei Li's army, and learned that it only has 20 troops. Although 18 of them are from the army of the four forest tribes, the other [-] are said to be from the former Chery Kingdom.

Clark was already laughing wildly in his command tent. He was naturally familiar with the army of the former Chery Kingdom. Except for the army led by Meili before, the others were just second-rate armies in the world. Compared with the Walter army he led The elite of the empire was even farther apart.

As for the legion that Mei Li originally led, I heard that it has been disbanded since she escaped from Chery Kingdom. Most of them have been demobilized and returned home, and a small number of them have fled into the mountains to become thieves.

That's why he rushed to the border of the Profound Sky Empire so quickly. He wanted to defeat Mei Li, a woman who was known as the Goddess of War and had never been defeated in her life, so that he could replace her and become the number one God of War.

What's more, doing so can also fulfill the orders of the Emperor Walter Empire, invade the Tianxuan Empire as soon as possible, occupy more land, and then the army of the Walter Empire will be sent in a steady stream, laying a good foundation for the ultimate benefit .

"Come on."

Thinking of the joy, Clark called out to his adjutant loudly, preparing to start a full-scale attack on Ford City immediately, and realize his wish as soon as possible.

"Commander, what are your orders?"

"Immediately call the heads of all legions here for a meeting. In addition, let the combat department give orders to the forward Black Panther Legion, so that they don't need to rest, directly enter the plains outside Ford City, and wipe out the patrols of the Tianxuan Empire. Set up camp outside and prepare for the arrival of my army."

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief."

"This place is only twenty miles away from Ford City, and my army may attack at any time. Let the Black Panther Army; only 8 people go first, and the woman will not dare to fight. It is best if she fights, the Black Panther Army 8 people are enough to hold them back, and then my army will take the opportunity to rush up and end the battle immediately. However, she should not be so stupid, and I heard that her 20 troops are distributed in Ford and the East and West Deputy If you divide your troops, you will be even less able to attack."

Clark was full of confidence, thinking that he had considered everything completely, but in order to show that he had planned a strategy, he still let the [-] troops of the Black Bear Legion advance in two ways to five miles in front of the two deputy cities on the left and right of Ford, so as to intercept the opponent's attack. The army can also enter to threaten the opponent's vice city.

However, Clark also boasted at the military meeting that he would capture Ford City within three days, and then march into the heartland of the Profound Sky Empire, and when he arranged for the tasks of the five legions under him to enter the Profound Sky Empire, an order Bing suddenly ran in panic.

"Master Commander, something is wrong."

"Why are you so flustered that you broke into the military tent without being notified, someone is here, first pull down and beat the thirty military sticks hard."

"Commander, Xiaoyou really has something important to report."

"Hmph, Master Mu Wuzun, no matter what you have to do, hit me first and then talk about it."

After a while, the orderly was brought in half dead, lying on the ground moaning non-stop, and had already been beaten dizzy.

"Since you have received the rod punishment, what can you say now?"

When Clark saw the commanders of the various legions below and the ten thousand cavalry commanders of the various legions looking at him, none of them dared to look up, and there was a look of fear on their faces, thinking that this way of killing chickens and monkeys was not bad. The grandson still dares to be disobedient.

"Master Commander, I just received the battle report from the front line. The Black Panther Legion was ambushed by the army of the Profound Sky Empire, and suffered heavy casualties. Flying Eagle is calling for help from the headquarters."

"what?"

Surprised, Clark stood up from the chair involuntarily, and the precious teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a loud sound, as if he had slapped Clark severely.

"how can that be?"

"How did the army of the Profound Sky Empire do it?"

"Aren't our flying legions patrolling the sky?"

Clark was awakened by the comments of the generals below. He knew that it was not the time to be in a daze, so he quickly stepped forward and pulled the orderly up from the ground: "Quickly tell me, what's going on?"

"According to the battle report, the Black Panther Army set up an ambush in a forest five miles away from Ford. I don't know how many troops they used to surround them. The troops of the Black Bear Army on the left and right flanks wanted to go to the rescue, but the two opponents The deputy all showed signs of mobilizing troops and horses, so they didn't dare to act rashly."

"Hmph, why didn't you tell me about such a major military matter? Someone is here, pull me down and hit another [-] sticks."

"General, please spare me. It's not that you don't want to tell me, but you didn't let me say it."

However, Clark didn't seem to hear his words. He strode back to the front of the map, pointed to the map and ordered to the remaining regiment leaders: "All regiments attack, aiming at Ford City, first rescue the Black Panthers, and then directly Siege."

"Commander, although the Black Panther Legion is currently trapped, they may also hold back a large number of troops from the Profound Sky Empire. I think we might as well attack Ford City directly. The army of the Profound Sky Empire will definitely not allow us to attack Ford City , then the Black Panther Army will be saved naturally. And if they can take the opportunity to occupy Ford City, its strategic significance will be extremely huge."

Originally, what the chief of the legion said was very reasonable, but the chief of the Black Panther Legion is Clark's brother-in-law. Could he not go to the rescue immediately?

"The Black Tiger Legion went directly to attack Ford City, and the Black Lion Legion and Black Wolf Legion went to rescue the Black Panther Legion. If the Legion Commander Bunier has made a mistake, I only ask you. Let's go immediately."

Under Clark's order, the other legions had to obey, and the three major legions immediately swept away with 6 or [-] horses, rushing towards Ford City like a torrent.

However, when they arrived at the place where Bunier's Black Panther Army was ambushed, there was only a mountain of bloody corpses at the scene, and there was not a single soldier of the Profound Sky Empire.

What made them even more surprised was that there was no forest around here as the messenger had said, which drove the head of the Black Lion Legion and Black Wolf Legion who came to the rescue almost crazy.

Fortunately, they soon found Bunier who was hiding among a pile of dead soldiers. After asking, they found out that his Black Panther Army was finished, and most of them had surrendered or fled except those who had already died.

As for the army of the Profound Sky Empire, they didn't see many, only tens of thousands of people, among them were elves, dwarves, treants and druids.

The forest they saw at the beginning was transformed by four or five thousand treants.Caught off guard, they were surrounded by tree men, and surrounded by dense bows and arrows and magic.

Bunier was so frightened that he hid for the first time, and then only heard the sound of killing, and then passed out directly, without even a decent resistance.Of course, it was impossible for Bunier to tell anyone this.
