"The so-called victory or defeat is often decided in the blink of an eye!"

Under the banner of the golden iris, Bernard Morwes, surrounded by a group of imperial knights, held his head high and made a firm assertion: "The key to the outcome is never who can take the lead and who has more morale. , or the soldiers are better trained and have more firepower.”

"No, these are just skins! Fake husks over the core of truth, superficial appearances—the real priority, patience!"

"Only a more patient side can find a breaking point in a seemingly unfavorable battle situation, maximize its own advantages, and give a fatal counterattack when the enemy plays the last trump card and is desperate."

"Patience...is the ray of hope!"

For this incomparably correct nonsense, the surrounding officers and knights suddenly flattered, and praised "the chief minister's great views", "Your Excellency is indeed far-sighted, and his eyes are like torches"...

And the reason why this group of people touted it so much is of course not because they suddenly changed their minds and decided to swear allegiance to Bernard from the bottom of their hearts, purely because the current situation is indeed developing in the direction he "expected".

As the morale-like grenadier regiment suddenly stopped the offensive, the imperial line that was about to collapse immediately stood firm and launched a full-scale counterattack.

Once the attack turned to defense, the strength of the Storm Division as the original attacker was immediately obvious; only five companies of grenadier regiments cooperated with the second and third infantry regiments with a small number of troops, which could not stop the four imperial lines that were fully deployed. The offensive launched by the Corps.

Even if the Imperial Infantry code of conduct is rigid, the width and density of firepower after deployment can still reach twice or even three times that of the Storm Division's leading troops; only by retreating in an orderly manner can they ensure that they are not surrounded or defeated.

What made Bernard even more excited was the reaction of the opposing Storm Division... In the face of the continuous defeat of the front line offensive, the rear line troops did not have timely reinforcements, and the four imperial line regiments could almost launch a counter-offensive without encountering any attack. hinder.

What does this mean?

It shows that the storm division has lost command and control, and each combat unit has begun to fight on its own!

In fact, Bernard was not very at ease with Ser Amar at first. He knew the level of the old knight. He was just barely able to pick one out of the rotten eggs; his greatest expectations were also It can only contain the high ground and force the storm division, who is facing the enemy, to suspend the offensive, so that it is convenient for him to encircle on three sides.

As for the complete annihilation, it is impossible. Even if the combat power of the two sides is disparate, the isolated Clovis people can burst into amazing combat power under the stimulation of survival, and the price that the imperial army has to pay is too great.

The key to the battle is to force Yangfan City to make a statement, so that they can clearly see the current form and show their "loyalty" to themselves and the empire as soon as possible. Whether they can kill Anson Bach is secondary.

But the change in the battle situation also inadvertently caused Bernard's mentality to change.

If you can kill the Clovis garrison here, and even capture or kill Anson Bach himself, wouldn’t the previous series of problems be solved?

This feeling of clearing the sky and seeing the sky, made the minister in charge make up a certain determination, vowing to wash away the shame of being captured when the land was unfortunate in this coastal city of the new world.

"Imperials - go forward!"

Amidst the rousing drumbeats, the four line regiments formed four horizontal formations from left to right, and the golden iris banners with tassel tassels behind them took to their positions, and with unparalleled arrogance, they began to advance forward.

On the other hand, the Grenadier regiment was in a state of disarray. The four attacking companies were in a hurry to retreat, and even the flags could be thrown on the ground regardless of the fact that they retreated in a hurry without even breaking the rear. I lead a company of reserve hardtops.

In this case, Fabian had to force the company to expand into two horizontal lines, and at the same time constantly gather the "broken soldiers", and finally did not let the line of defeating and retreating collapse at a touch.

Almost at the same time, more good news is still being sent:

Sent to the Eastern Front, Sir Reyer found no sign of reinforcements from the rebel colonies (Free Confederacy), and was leading the 7th Line of Privates and a company of Hussars to attack the right flank of the Storm Division.

The Western Front controls three line regiments, and the messengers of the Cuirassier Company and the Cavalry Artillery Company also came to the news and found signs of a large number of cavalry activities. It is speculated that they were scouts sent by Yangfan City, and they were becoming more frequent.

In other words, these traitors have also realized the problem and started to be afraid.

"I only remembered at this time, what have you been doing?" Bernard snorted coldly, his eyes full of contempt.

Even so, he still intends to leave a way out for Yangfan City... It's not purely because of Louis' stubborn and dead brain, and the imperial army is indeed unable to hold on to this siege war any longer, and it must be resolved quickly.

As for the "liberals" in the city and Sado, a traitor who deserves death, I'm afraid they still have to be spared; with this great victory, there should be no more **** who dare to question their authority...

Just when Bernard began to plan in his heart how to punish the traitors, the opposing storm division had completely lost the central battlefield they had previously controlled; the four line regiments continued to maintain their momentum, one battalion after another. pressed up.

Although the specific location of Anson Bach's headquarters and the deployment of the Storm Division's troops were still unclear in the thick fog, as expected, they were all retreating in the direction of the hills and highlands, gradually shrinking the line of troops.

This is also the normal state of an army without a leader in a raid—because there is no order and support, the scattered troops will subconsciously concentrate, so as to get support from friendly forces, try to "report to the regiment to keep warm", and finally be surrounded by the enemy on many sides, retreat without any Reversible approaching a dead end.

But even if Anson Bach has really been killed, the Storm Division can still use the fog to retreat from the weak Eastern Front... Although this is destined to suffer heavy casualties, a large number of soldiers were chased and annihilated by cavalry because of falling behind and getting lost, but at least the core The main force can still be preserved.

In order to seal the last gap, completely annihilate or at least crippled the only force of Clovis in the new world, we must rely on the two thousand rebels headed by Louis in Yangfan City to block the retreat of the Storm Division from the east.

"So, it's time for you to choose." The proud Bernard's mouth showed a bit of grimness, and he muttered to himself:

"Is it letting go of stubbornness and taking the initiative to surrender, or..."

"Break your name!"

………………

"Lord Louis Bernard, please decide!"

Sado shouted anxiously: "It's really too late to wait until the outcome is decided!"

Looking at the gloomy, still silent young knight, the Cuirassier battalion commander's heart was dripping with blood; he didn't even understand what was so melancholy about something so clear.

Just because Louis stayed put, the Clovis people who could have the upper hand were already in jeopardy in the blink of an eye, making the situation instantly develop in Bernard's favor.

Sir Sado knew very well that if Bernard really won this battle, others might be able to survive. He, a traitor who escaped and plotted a rebellion, would not survive a thousand percent, and that minister in charge would definitely kill the chickens and show the monkeys!

"Otherwise, just give me my cuirassier battalion!"

In order to survive, Sado was ready to break the jar: "You lead the other troops in the city of sailing, and follow the orders of Lord Bernard to pretend to besiege the right flank of the Clovis people to cover for us; I will lead the cuirassiers to take advantage of the opportunity. The one who raided his headquarters..."

"no!"

Without giving Bernard a chance to finish speaking, Louis directly steals:

"Not to mention how in the thick fog you are going to find his headquarters; but since he dares to make such a request, it shows that Bernard is not afraid of the possibility of our revolt!"

"If I'm not mistaken, Uncle Bernard is acting together with the central line, and a small number of cavalry can't have a chance to make a surprise attack in front of a large line; and our troops are also blue and white uniforms, in the thick fog. It is impossible for the Clovis people to distinguish friend from foe."

"Uncle Bernard... He only needs us to appear on the Eastern Front to block the storm division's retreat." The young knight said with difficulty, his face becoming more and more ugly:

"Whether we really surrender or not, the imperial army of the storm division that surrounds us is also equivalent to besieging us... There is no way out at all."

Ser Thaddo was speechless, caught in a dilemma of silence.

The slaughter in the distance is still going on, but the defenders of Yangfan City on the tower have lost their initial interest in "watching the show"; they know very well that when the Clovis people are killed off, they will be the chief minister. a goal.

"You...why are you talking like the Clovis people are about to die."

In the silence, the elf girl said again: "Haven't they lost the battle yet?"

Sadow didn't speak, and the young knight just smiled bitterly, not knowing how to explain to Freya.

Looking at the two who refused to speak, the elf girl blinked in confusion: "Really, why are you all looking like this - the Clovis people haven't lost the battle yet, oh... It seems that they are ready to fight back. It's gone!"

Fight back?

Louis and Sado were stunned at the same time and looked at each other.

………………

North of the Hills Heights, Storm Division headquarters.

Looking at the grenadier regiment in front of him that was still retreating and kept moving closer to him, An Sen stood there with a leisurely expression, without the slightest look of nervousness:

"The order - let Fabian stop retreating, block the imperial line that is still attacking, and forbid them to go any further."

"Are you sure?" Karl slightly worried:

"The enemies on the east and west wings are still approaching us, and Yangfan City's attitude is not clear - it's like gambling!"

"It doesn't need to be equal, it is."

Anson smiled bitterly: "As I said, we are only 20% sure; the key to success is not up to us to some extent, but three other things - Bernard's IQ and Louis' determination."

"There are only two things, what about the third one?"

"Actually, it's still two things - reinforcements from the Confederate Legion and the weather, but I've basically given up on the first one."

"..."

"But in the final analysis, whether we succeed or fail, we have no way out; no matter what the probability is, we must succeed, and we must succeed!"

Anson slowly turned his head to look at Carl, with an unprecedented determination in his eyes: "Stormmaster, Ice Dragon Fjord, Clovis, Free Confederation... The fate of all of these is determined by the outcome of this battle... No, it should be It's the result!"

"Even if the cannon fodder was originally thrown out to attract the enemy's attention, what we have to do now is already something that countless leaders dare not even think about; what we want to strive for is not only to survive..."

"But more!"

The moment the voice echoed, the expression of Carl, who was still frightened, changed obviously.

The next second, the chief of staff of the major storm division, who sighed a long time, rolled his eyes at Anson indifferently:

"You'd better tell the others if you're inspiring; I'm your lieutenant, just tell me what to do!"

Looking at his impatient appearance, An Sen was stunned at first, and then the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily:

"Serial order - 1st Infantry Regiment Alexei, 2nd Infantry Regiment Norton, 4th Infantry Regiment Julian, Hussar Company Jason, start action!"

"Yes!"

………………

The right flank of the Storm Division, the front of the infantry column.

Alexei Dukasky, who took the order, looked at the Imperial Line Corps that was slowly approaching from his flank, took a deep breath and pulled out the saber around his waist, and then roared:

"1st Infantry Regiment, all ready - stop advancing!"

"Form a hollow phalanx with battalions as a unit, and unfold it on the spot!"

"Prepare to meet the enemy!"

As soon as the words fell, the 600 Storm Division infantry immediately began to move - the four company-sized columns quickly disintegrated and split; the soldiers closest to the right line stood still, and the soldiers in the front row quickly formed a vertical column in a counterclockwise direction. Rotate forward to form the front side and left side; the back row rotates clockwise to complement the back side; finally, the soldiers in each row turn around to complete the formation.

Two minutes later ~www.readwn.com~ a slightly loose hollow phalanx emerged out of thin air, blocking the middle line and the eastern line of the empire.

Almost at the same time, the second and fourth infantry regiments on the left flank of the Storm Division also began to change their formations, from a column to a hollow phalanx, and the entire Storm Division front changed. The middle is a horizontal line, and the two wings are hollow squares.

And Bernard and the four imperial infantry regiments, who were still pressing forward, were sandwiched between the phalanx on the left and right flanks, while their east and west troops were completely cut off by the phalanx and the middle.

The three-sided enclosure has been completed.

"Um?"

A confused expression suddenly appeared on Alexei's face. I don't know if it was an illusion. He suddenly felt that the figure of the imperial line infantry on the opposite side began to become clear. Could it be that:

"The fog... is it going to dissipate?"
