Demon King, Don’t Run Away

Chapter 659: Ambush from all sides

Views:

"Hehehe. Found it. The army of the great general who guards the country."

Riding on the heavily-armored horse-shaped monster, General Rose's mouth curled up wildly, and his long face made the smile look even more obscene.

“As long as we subdue them and spread the news of their failure, the Wansheng National Army will immediately lose their fighting spirit.

By then, incorporating Wansheng into our territory will be as easy as taking something out of a bag."

A liaison officer with thick lips and thick curly hair walked up to Chuiye and reported, "General Chuiye, the other troops have been contacted and are rushing over."

"Very good, thank you for your hard work."

Raising his binoculars, Chuiye monitored Ajiket's troops from afar. After a few minutes, he discovered that several orcs had set up dummies next to the camp, while the others were retreating in an orderly manner.

"Tsk, you're really an orc, you have a keen sense. We got just a little closer and were discovered immediately.

If I hadn't gotten this little gadget from the research institute, I probably wouldn't have discovered their actions until they had already retreated."

With an unhappy groan, Chui Ye gave orders to the army.

"Pass on my order. Send out your entire army and crush these orc bastards to pieces! Show them how great humans are! All this is for the glory of the empire!"

Taking the heavy knight's spear from his men, Chuiye led the way and headed straight for Ajiket's camp. Tens of thousands of soldiers behind him also launched a charge.

The suppression teams No. 001, No. 002 and No. 003 together constitute this large suppression force.

They have only one goal, to completely destroy Akiket's troops and lead the war to victory for the Empire.

The rest of the suppression forces also began to act. They were able to completely cut off the retreat routes of the Ajiket troops, leaving them with no way to go.

This battle will largely determine the direction of the war next year.

Akiket knew this, too.

Seeing the Rose Empire's army approaching closer and closer, Ajiket gritted his teeth and shouted to the ponytailed young man not far away without much hesitation:

"Marco, continue to retreat with the troops. You must lead the troops out of danger!"

Then, Akiket called the prepared assassins.

"Death squad, get ready! Don't let the human heavy cavalry break up the formation!"

"yes!"

The assassins answered in a resounding voice, without any fear of death in their eyes.

"General..." Marco stopped and clenched the spear in his hand. After hesitating for a while, he ran to Ajiket without hesitation, "General Ajiket, I will cover the rear. The army cannot do without you!"

Ajiket pushed Marco away.

After staggering to his feet, Marco looked up and saw a harpoon-shaped weapon suddenly appear in Ajiket's hand. The next second, the sharp spike pointed directly at the tip of his nose.

"Now is not the time to argue about this, this is an order. With your strength, you are not enough to deal with the charge of these heavy cavalry!

I say it again, lead the troops to retreat!

If you dare to disobey orders, your general position will be revoked!"

Seeing the fearlessness and determination in Ajiket's eyes, Marco bit his lower lip tightly, gripped the spear in his hand even tighter, turned around reluctantly, and evacuated with his troops.

In just a few minutes, the orc army was divided into two parts.

Ajiket led the suicide squad to cover the rear, while Marco led the remaining troops to evacuate.

Among the suicide squad, there are many middle-aged orcs. They are all veterans of this war and have rich combat experience.

Behind them is the hope for the future of Wansheng Kingdom.

As long as Marco can live with his troops.

Even if it's just a little bit more, the hope of regaining the land has indeed increased.

The faith in the hearts of these middle-aged orcs will not waver.

They lined up in a row, unleashed various skills to increase defense, and built a Great Wall with their flesh and blood.

“[Perseverance].”

"[Iron Wall]."

"[Unbreakable Fortress]."

Soon, the iron cavalry of the Rose Empire collided with the human wall built by the death squad.

The Rose Empire Army was not to be outdone, and used various skills that enhanced their attacks or ignored their defenses.

"[Human and Horse as One]"

"[Piercing Thorn]"

"[Momentum surges]"

Sharp spears pierced into the defense line built by the orcs, and pairs of iron hooves dug deep into the snow, providing powerful propulsion force, intending to completely tear apart the defense line built by the orcs.

However, even if some orcs failed to defend against the human knights' spears, they still used their bodies and did their best to block the advance of the human troops.

The steel fork in Ajiket's hand and the knight's spear in Chuiye's hand were intertwined.

Ajiket used the gap of the steel fork to jam Chuiye's knight's lance and exerted force towards Chuiye's right side, intending to knock Chuiye over with brute force.

Unfortunately, Chuiye withdrew his hand in time, controlled his mount to retreat, pulled out his huge knight's spear from the steel fork, and then stabbed at Ajiket's heart again.

Ajiket's steel fork spun quickly and collided with the attacking spear again.

The two sides fell into a brief stalemate.

"General Ajiket, I never thought you would personally go into battle.

Haha, it should be said that Wansheng Country sent you because there was no one else available!

Let me tell you! You orcs are finished. There are troops ambushing in the direction you are retreating!

Don't struggle in vain, surrender quickly. At least according to the dragon's rules, you can still save your life.

Build our country for us!"

Chuiye tried to shake Ajiket and create a loophole, but Ajiket remained calm and expressionless.

Having fought with the Rose Empire for many years, Ajiket is well aware of how difficult the Rose Empire is.

At that time and now, it is not surprising that the Rose Empire would outflank the rear.

Perhaps the Rose Empire had anticipated that the Central Recapture Army would be in a desperate situation, so when they were in Benliang City, the Rose Empire did not use 100% of its strength, but let them disperse.

Afterwards, defeat them one by one.

I should have noticed it sooner, but given the situation at the time, I had no choice but to run away.

No matter how many times, Ajiket would lead his troops out of the siege.

The pressure of having to retake the plains and then build defenses this winter, as well as the abnormal behavior of the Rose Empire, gradually led the Recapture Army into the Rose Empire's trap.

“After gaining an advantage, I didn’t become proud, but became more cautious, trying to understand the opponent’s psychology and develop a targeted strategy.

Humans are a formidable adversary indeed."

Using both hands to push Chuiye's spear, Ajiket tried to knock Chuiye over again.

Chui Ye used the same trick again to avoid the enemy's sharp edge.

Akiket's troops are already at the end of their strength, and there is no need to engage them head-on.

Play with him more and let him see the scene of the troops being slaughtered. Then, without much effort, the old general will naturally kneel down and surrender.
