I Will Be The Crowned King

Vol 4 Chapter 415: win or lose

The latest website: Sharp screams and exclamations swirled in the ears, rolling up countless blood and fire, and one figure fell down in the dazzling fire, swallowed by gunpowder smoke, and immersed in blood.

The moment he saw the innocent girl laughing and pounced on him, Bernard Morwes thought a lot.

He remembered that Arthur Herrede had complained repeatedly that he lost to a little girl who was not half his height; he remembered the last battle of Black Reef Harbor, and he never expected Anson Bach to be in the city. , I thought of Louis Bernard's defection, who had failed in the battle of Sail City, and thought of...

The deafening guns roared in his ears, and the dazzling fire in front of him temporarily made him lose the ability to think, and he just stood there in a daze.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the surrounding guards immediately formed a hollow phalanx to separate the already stupid prisoners from the surrounding defeated soldiers and the enemy.

The 4th Infantry Regiment and Lisa's guard company, who had been running with the girl for dozens of minutes, had long lost their physical strength, and even had no desire to pull the trigger; It is possible to easily surround, repel, and annihilate the more than a thousand of them.

But in the face of Lisa Bach, who was mad, and the more than 1,000 Clovis people who were walking on the mountain of corpses and gushing heat from their mouths, the Bernard Corps just wanted to get out of the war as soon as possible. The troublesome nails were solved in time by Leo and the girl, the commander of the Fourth Infantry.

More than a thousand soldiers of the Storm Legion were shocked to find that the battle was really just like what the girl said - run, run to win, if you can't run or stop, you will die.

In the melee, more and more rout soldiers were mixed between the two armies. Although the defense could not be organized, it also slowed down the girl's pace; this little time also made the panicked Bernard guards sober. When they came over, they, who were still trying to resist, began to forcefully drag the supervisor, preparing to take him to escape in the chaos.

"Cover Captain Lisa Bach!"

Leo, who was closely behind the girl, was the first to notice the difference. Out of breath, he threw away the rifle and pulled out the revolver around his waist. Unable to approach the hollow phalanx formed by Bernard's guards: "Charge, charge!"

The commander of the Fourth Infantry shouted loudly, but there was chaos around him. Not to mention the enemy, he didn't even know where his troops were scattered. Not even a single infantry company could follow closely behind him.

Just when he was sweating profusely and had difficulty breathing, he inadvertently swept across some round and swaying little pendants hanging on the girl's waist, and his eyes suddenly lit up:

"Fourth Infantry Regiment—Grenade Ready!"

Ok? grenade? !

Hearing this, the Bernard guards suddenly changed their expressions, and they dared not continue to maintain the hollow phalanx to delay, and they hurriedly protected the supervisor to retreat.

Then, they waited until a girl with a steam rifle, plus a hundred panting, vicious Clovis people came up from behind.

The last picture that Bernard saw before he fell into a coma was that the girl stepped on his chest with a "smiling" face, raised the **** of the rifle high at her head, and then...

"boom--!"

……………………

After the headquarters was captured by the Storm Legion and Bernard himself was captured by Lisa Bach, the Legion that had already been in a dilemma also ushered in a complete rout.

The first to be disintegrated were the five line corps that confronted the shooting corps. Although they stubbornly blocked the first round of charges with excellent organization and high-pressure orders, the huge casualties and the brutal indigenous fighters also dealt with them. Caused a considerable morale hit.

So when the news of "Bernard is dead" came, the troops on the west side that were facing off against the main force of the New World Legion were still able to maintain their morale, but they became the first to collapse.

Amid the continuous roar of guns and the jubilant cries of the shooting corps, these routed soldiers cried and fled, unable to maintain their front anymore, but were slaughtered and shot like sheep; The troops lost cover, exposing the back, the middle of the regiment, directly to the muzzle of the shooting corps.

The last thing Bernard Morwis wanted to see finally happened: the attack on the northern position was frustrated and confronted with the main force of Anson Bach's western line. The army of more than 10,000 people gathered in the seemingly spacious wilderness. There is no depth or safe cover at all. As long as the front line is penetrated and there is no room for detours in the back line, the collapsed morale will quickly cause a chain reaction, and a collective rout will break out.

The cuirassiers, which were originally left behind, were completely meaningless at this time. If the five infantry regiments on the front could steadily retreat and lure the shooting army to the plains, the cavalry would be able to launch surprise attacks from the flanks. Destroyed the morale of the shooting army, pursued the victory, and launched an attack directly to the empty northern position.

The prudent Lord Superintendent imagined it perfectly. He did not expect to be able to capture the outer positions on the north side in one go, but as long as the flag of the Ring of Order was erected on the high ground on the slope, the morale of the defenders in the city would inevitably collapse; Taking advantage of the opportunity Anson Bach had to return to rescue the city, he organized the Legion to break through.

But this perfect plan was over from the beginning... The headquarters was taken away, and those who didn't remember that the cavalry who did not come was directly trapped in the sea of ​​rout soldiers; charging was impossible, so they could only escape.

As the elite cuirassiers of the legion fled, the last troop that could suppress the rout directly lost its meaning and could no longer reverse the rotten situation.

During this process, the commanders of the several line regiments who were confronting the main force of Ansen Bach had not completely lost their minds. It was clear that once the line of troops could not be stabilized, the main force of the enemy on the opposite side would definitely launch an all-out attack, and the situation would be real. It was irreversible... So while they stabilized the team, they tried to besiege Lisa and the 4th Infantry Regiment, who had captured the Superintendent, while the routed soldiers had not been killed by the shooting army.

But although their response was correct, because there was no order scheduling, several line regiments felt that it was themselves who had to turn the tide, and other friendly troops should cooperate as much as possible, but as a result, no one cooperated... The reinforcements of each regiment were all crowded together. Together, Leo, who was so tired, was able to organize a counterattack calmly, fighting five at a time.

After confirming that the time was finally ripe, Carl Bain, who was still in the northern position, finally gave an order to let the cavalry of Sail City, who had been preparing for a long time, launch a surprise attack, and let the hussar battalion of the Storm Legion follow closely to intercept the enemy. Soldiers fleeing east.

On the bright side, of course, it is to increase the number of troops as much as possible to ensure that no fish slip through the net, but in fact Carl knows very well what the level of the Clovis cavalry is.

Under the sound of horseshoes and shouts of killing in the sky, a swift figure holding a 13-star ring flag appeared on the east side of the battlefield, breaking into the rout troops that had no organization or formation to speak of.

In the face of the large-scale cavalry, the jihadist army from the north of the empire once again showed unity and superb organization. It can be organized spontaneously without an order, meeting in twos and threes with the nearby companions to form a small square array; Attempt to delay the pursuit to buy time for the rest of the rout friendly forces.

Unfortunately, they overestimated the courage of the Clovis and underestimated their downline.

As soon as he saw the enemy quickly forming a phalanx, Cavalry Major Jason Fruhoff immediately sounded the bugle and directed the hussars and the rout to distance themselves; Carl Bain, who heard the sound of the bugle, immediately understood and ordered the artillery The company commander aimed at the enemy's phalanx and focused fire with solid bullets.

Accompanied by the continuous sound of artillery on the north side, dozens of solid bullets scrambled to fall on the heads of the routed soldiers; the shattered corpses and the huge roar completely destroyed their last bit of morale.

At this time, Major Jason calculated that a round of rapid fire was almost over, and immediately blew the attack horn to let the hussars launch the attack; He didn't even say hello, instead he was one step behind. He could only cut off the enemy's retreat for the Storm Legion, and completely ceded the credit to the enemy.

Overwhelmed by fear, the Mujahideen soldiers could no longer organize a decent defense, and in the blink of an eye they were overwhelmed, ravaged, and slaughtered by the waves of Clovis hussars; without organization and discipline, the infantry was like that in front of the cavalry Weak and helpless.

At the same time, Anson, who had confirmed that the enemy had been completely defeated, also issued the final command of the general attack.

With the Fifth Infantry Regiment of the Storm Legion as the leading force, the Yangfan City Line Corps as the main force, and the Black Reef Harbor Militia in the rear; the army of nearly 10,000 people all entered the battle, advancing slowly like a moving steel jungle.

So far, the Bernard Corps persisted to the end, and the several line corps on the west side, which were still struggling, were finally completely overwhelmed by the last straw, and they took the initiative to lay down their weapons and surrender with a white flag.

The commander-in-chief has been captured by the enemy, and half of the army has retreated across the board. The main force of the enemy army is in front, and there are cavalry interceptions in the back. The battle has reached this level, and even a fool knows that it is completely useless.

Watching the surrounding enemies lay down their weapons one by one, they raised their hands and ran over to surrender. Leo, who was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to speak, didn't even bother to move; he felt like he had become a muddy mess, and he just wanted to hurry up and get a good night's sleep. Feel, by the way, think about why you would be unlucky enough to take on such a terrifying task.

It was not until the casualties were counted after the war that Leo realized how lucky he was—the entire battle, the Fourth Infantry Regiment and the Guard Company, who were ordered to undertake the assault mission, were more than a thousand wounded, disabled, killed, and missing. Three hundred, Lisa, who was the spearhead of the assault, was naturally not spared. The girl suffered from various explosions, impacts, bayonets and stray bullets from head to toe. There were almost a dozen wounds.

But he, the military commander who was in charge of commanding the troops behind Lisa, did not leave any wounds except for muscle fatigue.

This result, not to mention the military doctor, was unbelievable even to him. When the battle was at its most dangerous, he was almost in the center of Bernard's army. He was surrounded by hundreds of enemies, and the number of stray bullets was like summer flies. He has repelled dozens of enemy attacks, and in the screenshots he never had even the slightest bruise. He was completely intact as if he had never participated in a battle, and his luck was high.

It didn't take long for a rumor that had existed in the Clovis Royal Army for a long time, and rumors about the "undead Leo" also began to spread in the Storm Legion - no matter how desperate the situation, this lord can do miracles. Survival like this, and even complete the mission unexpectedly.

Of course, his comrades-in-arms and subordinates are usually not so lucky, and they are all unlucky without exception. Depending on the situation, it may range from heavy casualties to the destruction of the entire army.

At the same time as the enemy surrendered, Chief of Staff Carl Bain immediately ordered the shooting army to stop the attack. Taking advantage of the complete defeat of the enemy, the red-eyed indigenous warriors would not find the opportunity for the opponent for a while, so that this Help the guy who can't obey orders to retreat quickly.

On the one hand, of course, they were afraid of conflict with other troops of the New World Legion. On the other hand, it was also out of a similar idea to Bernard, but the exact opposite - to let the army return to help and destroy the morale of the Mujahideen who were attacking the port.

So after a **** battle for several hours, the soldiers of the Bolei Legion, who finally felt that victory was in sight, were surprised to find that a large swath of enemy troops suddenly appeared on the hillside in front of them, and hundreds of 13-star ring flags appeared in the clear afternoon. In the sun, fluttering in the wind.

The defenders of Heijiao Harbor, who had been fighting for a long time, burst into cheers resounding through the sky. Louis, who was kneeling on one knee in the fortification with a knife, and Fabien, who was covered in dust and gunpowder, looked at each other. smile.

………………

"Withdraw the army."

Looking at the 13-star ring flag fluttering on the north side, Boley Levent sighed silently: "Let the troops on the front line retreat steadily and retreat to the fortifications near the pier~www.readwn.com~ Tell the advance troops , as long as you make sure that the dock landing point is not lost, any other stronghold can be surrendered if the enemy attacks, don’t worry too much.”

Speaking, he slowly put down the telescope in his hand, the whole person seemed to have just experienced a useless effort, exhausted and lost.

From the point of view of the goal to be achieved, although the surprise attack failed, from the moment he took the landing point, the Black Reef Port was already in his own pocket; specifically, only how long it takes and the price to pay the price to get from the opposite side Take this colony in your hands.

At the same time, on the other hand, the enemy had no intention of defending this port from the beginning, and the goal was to destroy the living force of the jihad; Bernard Morwes, an important supervisor, was uncertain, and the elite of 10,000 people The Legion was wiped out, so...

Bole, who looked up at the sky, paused and sighed:

"We lost."
