Chapter 575

After being attacked by a few enemy troops that night, Frost's united forces have been attacked several times.

Sometimes they will appear in the middle of the night, sometimes they will rush out when they first set up camp. Although the number of them is not large, they can't be ignored when they are felled or set on fire at will. In this way, the soldiers in the army were exhausted because they didn't have a good rest for a few days. Sometimes some people fell asleep while walking.

"That won't do“ Jenkins said so, and then he asked the army mage around him.

"Didn't the airship detect where they came from?"

"We increased the scope of our search, but we didn't get any valuable information because of the dense jungle and poor vision around here." The mage representative explained.

"If only there were elves in the army... But just think about it." Jenkins said it casually.

In the verdant Empire, the elves are still prosperous. They once impressed Xuehua seven countries in the battle of breaking the bow.

At that time, the other party's dense forest patrol team turned over from the sighing mountain range, which caused a lot of trouble for the logistics supplies of Xuehua seven countries, and almost cut off the food supply of Tianqi fortress at that time. Later, it was with the help of the wing tribes of the Falcon kingdom that the enemy's whereabouts were locked and the supply lines were maintained.

Another day, near night, the army began to camp, and it was almost out of Huangnan county.

Jenkins sat at the top of the tent, and the officers below began to report.

"Tomorrow we can get out of this jungle and go straight into the fields next to Hopland." A scouting officer reported that he was wearing a dark uniform without any reflective parts. Even his dagger and crossbow were matted.

"The more you end up, the more careful you have to be. I've got a rough idea of the other side's strategy. " Jenkins said.

He pushed the pieces of the map caravan. Several of them were close to the edge of the green area. In front of them was an open plain. Behind this open land, a city close to the mountain and the sea was marked on the map, Hopland.

"Use small-scale invasion to fatigue our troops, and then wait for work in the plain to start a tug and chase battle. When we show our flaws, we suddenly attack and give a fatal blow."

"It's a good idea, but unfortunately it's naive." Said a stout army commander, with a look of disdain on his face.

"Under the cover and cover of the statue legion, I'd like to see how they can tear our formation, relying on the weak mercenaries and cavalry? The Xifeng cavalry, which used to be in decline, can't even resist the peasant uprising. Ah. "

"In that case, we might as well stay here for two days and then move on to attack Hopland." One of the officers suggested.

"No way." Jenkins shook his head.

"The reinforcements of clancia are already on the way, and their speed is not slow. We have to catch up with them and beat Hopland, otherwise it will be a trouble later."

"Take a good rest tonight and strengthen your guard."

The lights outside the tent were bright. This time, the scouts expanded their detection range, and then several airships hovered in the sky to closely observe the dark land.

Compared with before, maybe the enemy also knew that the camp was heavily guarded tonight. It was quiet in the first half of the night, and the soldiers in the camp fell into a deep sleep.

A soldier sitting on the lookout tower holds a long gun and leans on a wooden stake. His head keeps falling, like fishing. Sometimes he falls, then he wakes up and lifts up. Finally, he falls down again because of sleepiness, and so on.

There are occasional bursts of insects in the jungle. Compared with summer, the sound of insects is much less. After all, the weather is getting cooler and cooler.

The moon rises and sets slowly, and the time gradually reaches more than 3 o'clock in the morning, which is also the deepest time for people to sleep.

At this time, a dark red comet suddenly appeared in a corner of the night sky, and then, several of the same dark red comets were also rising.

These huge comets, which are made up of countless flames, pass through the long tail of flame in the night sky. The high temperature distorts the atmosphere and makes a whirring licking sound. As it approached, the bright fire lit the sky like day, and the impending turbulent magic and high temperature made people feel suffocating pressure.

The first reaction is the mage on the airship in the sky. Several faint blue rays are emitted from the airship, accurately hitting these giant meteor fires that come from the sky and cross a long parabola.

The dark blue light flashed away, leaving several fence like tracks in the field of vision. Unfortunately, such a hasty attack could not disperse the flame full of burning magic.

Bang——

When these giant fireballs hit the ground, they burst directly, and the flames spread in all directions with the hot air. Just one round of bombing, nearly a thousand people died directly.

Then, the spread of the flame directly burned in the camp, rolling smoke accompanied by tents, food, debris, dead branches, fallen leaves and so on. There was also shouting and chaos in the camp.

"Fire fighting!"

"It's hot."

"Help me, I'm going to be burned, ah --"

One by one, firemen are waving their hands and running around looking for water. Unfortunately, there is no lake around here, and there is a lot of distance from the seaside. Their flames can only run faster and faster.

"Damn it A mage stood on the airship and looked at the scene below. With a sound of indignation, the mage robe on his body was lifted and dropped by the heat wave below.

The magic statues that were on standby before started one after another. Then, with the adjustment of some of the mages, several icy lights shot out, covering a piece of land, and began to cut away and put out the fire.

Jenkins also walked out of the tent and was surrounded and protected by his own soldiers and several magic statues. His brows wrinkled and he issued urgent orders, and the camp was busy.

"No, they're coming from the East!" A scoundrel ran up to Jenkins, with blood and stains on his body.

"East, how can it be? Isn't that our back side?" An officer asked incredulously.

"I don't know, but this time there are a lot of people." The scoundrel said breathlessly.

As if to confirm the other side's statement, a cry of killing started from the back. A group of soldiers in various kinds of armor and robes were killed from the back to the camp. They were holding weapons and torches, constantly lighting and cutting.

With this group of people's action, a large area of the jungle burning, was originally the autumn season, the flame also spread very fast.

Seeing this scene, Jenkins opened his eyes and had to send a large number of people to stop the other side from continuing to ignite.

While the camp was in chaos, when all kinds of people were shouting and running, there was a rush of horse hooves in the jungle outside the west side. While the airship and the magic statue were fighting the fire, a group of cavalry crossed the open field in the night and approached the camp on the edge of the jungle.

When they got close to the woodland, they directly turned over and dismounted. Like the attacking troops in the rear, they held up their weapons, lit torches, burned and drove the frightened soldiers away.

Under the attack of the two sides, the camp of frost rose became more flustered. Many soldiers went to the battlefield for the first time, and their psychological quality was not good. As a result, many people began to throw down their weapons and fled to the jungle on both sides of the north and the south.

The Legion of demons and airships, which used to be relied on, could not exert their power for a moment because they needed to put out the fire, had poor vision, and the scene was chaotic. They could only watch the more than 100000 barracks roar in the camp and trample and run on each other in fear and confusion.

The weakness of the soldiers' weak will and poor discipline was exposed in the night attack. Although more than 10000 veterans around veteran Jenkins could barely survive, they still could not change the situation that gradually slipped into the abyss.

Looking down from the night sky, on the dark land, the long and narrow camp for several miles fell into a burning light, and the forest fire was still spreading around, and the thick smoke filled the jungle.

And just when many generals were almost desperate, a clear and high voice suddenly sounded in the camp.

"Silence

"There is no mercy for those who shout and flee!"

With the fall of the voice, a sawtooth like crimson arc swept by, cut the soldiers into pieces, spattered blood, sprinkled on the people around them, making them shiver and frighten.

Many soldiers around were frightened on the spot and shut up.

Then, the red haired figure, waving the long sword of the deep red blood trough, ran quickly in the camp, killing the soldiers who were running around and shouting. As if they had been ordered, the general's bodyguards in the center of the camp were also divided into teams with swords to quickly run around the camp and kill those soldiers in disorder.

These pro guards in dark blue cloaks all have strength above sequence 3. It's easy to kill these fleeing soldiers. Under such cold-blooded and cruel military orders, the order in the camp is gradually restored. A senior officer began to direct the defense and counterattack.

Tonight, is still doomed to sleep.
