As soon as Kevin arrived at the scattered camp of the Black Wolf Army, he received a signal from the messenger to retreat immediately. Looking at the camp and the Black Wolf Army's remaining troops, which had no defense capabilities, Kevin could not understand why such an order was issued. As long as he was given a few minutes, Kevin would be sure to destroy the camp in front of him.
Kevin looked towards the barracks again. As the messenger said, the flag in the barracks was indeed an order to retreat. And there was undoubtedly only one person left in the barracks who would issue such an order, and that was me.
Thinking about the role that skinny boy played in the previous war and the trust that the legion commander has in him now, Kevin used reason to prevail in the confrontation between battle results and reason.
At the command, 6,000 heavy cavalry troops drew a circle in front of the Black Wolf Legion's camp and returned along the original route. Their actions surprised the Black Wolf Legion's garrison troops, who had been terrified for a long time. At the same time, they secretly thanked their good luck. In the absence of fortifications, heavy attack equipment and magicians, a strong heavy cavalry unit was enough to change a war, not to mention their light cavalry troops who could not abandon the thousands of wounded soldiers.
And after seeing the flag issued from the military camp, Carsent, who had led the defeated troops, immediately gathered the troops and ordered the defeated troops to retreat according to the plan, and then he immediately accelerated his return.
As the heavy cavalry led by Kevin suddenly returned, and the light cavalry that harassed the Brown Bear Legion also retreated, the Black Wolf Legion led by Hegma could not help but stagnate between the military camp and the pursuit battlefield. Chasing the heavy cavalry? If the other party was determined to retreat, then they would not be able to catch up with them before they entered the military camp. And chasing the defeated troops of the Kastark Empire was too far away now. The return of reinforcements just now widened the distance between them and them. If they chased them now, it would probably make their soldiers suffer another bloody lesson.
\"Notify the bear and ask him to pay attention to the opponent's tricks. If he is not very sure, tell them not to attack the opponent's camp for the time being, otherwise it may cause great losses....\" Helplessly, Hegma could only return to the camp first and hope that the violent bear would not be impulsive.
Unfortunately, his words were ignored by the commander of the Brown Bear Legion. In addition, he was unanimously given titles such as coward and timid by the Brown Bear Legion.
As soon as the two cavalry units entered the military camp, they were immediately commanded by the soldiers I sent to dismount and change their clothes. All the light cavalry became engineers again, and the heavy cavalry would be used as a guide and diversion team for the defeated troops. I didn't want them to disrupt my troops, or cause the army's morale to drop by spreading panic at will.
\"Hanlong, are you sure you can withstand their first charge? As long as we repel their first attack, we can arrange a retreat. I didn't expect that the two legions would suffer such heavy losses. Even the commander of the 224th Legion was seriously injured. If it weren't for his strong fighting spirit, he would have died halfway.\" As soon as I entered the military camp, Carsent immediately pulled me aside to ask about the current situation and told me about the experience of the two legions of the empire.
\"Sir, you know that I have not really experienced war, but judging from the current situation, if it is just the attack of ordinary soldiers, then there is indeed no problem. However, I want to know how many people in the opposite army can emit light~~uh! How many people can release fighting spirit? Can we send people to resist them?\" Ever since I encountered danger in the morning and was shocked by Carsent's sword, I have doubted the defense line in front of me.
Afterwards, I found a guard of Carsent, a junior swordsman, and asked him to demonstrate Dou Qi for me again. The result was that he easily cut a bamboo raft made of 10 cm diameter bamboo into two. With such power, it is really hard to imagine how much effect my Ju Ma can have. According to the guard, in this main corps of the empire, at least more than 100 people have such Dou Qi, so it doesn't take much, as long as half of them form a commando team, they can quickly clear a safe area. . . . . . . Although I have made corresponding preparations, the effect makes me very worried.
\"You can rest assured about this. There are not many swordsmen with fighting spirit in the Senke Federation, the homeland of the barbarians. Except for a few of their senior figures, the two legions in front of us are less than half of my legion. I can guarantee that they will not pose a threat to the one in front of us~that one horse.\"
Carson's words reassured me a lot, but I also had doubts about their previous defeat. Could it be that those so-called magician troops were so powerful that they could play such a big role on the battlefield? Otherwise, how could those legions with so many swordsmen fail so easily? Fortunately, according to the news from the scout cavalry, the enemy's pursuit troops did not include magician troops. Now we only need to resist the enemy's first attack, and then we can retreat.
While I was talking to Carsent, the defeated Kastek soldiers had begun to approach the military camp, and under the command of the guide team with swords and guns, they quickly entered the camp in order. Anyone who dared to disrupt the order or disobey the command was dragged out directly and punished with the most severe military law. Therefore, the entire retreat process was carried out relatively smoothly.
While Carsen went to reorganize and rearm the defeated troops, I also came to the spinning line. Under the protection of two intermediate swordsmen beside me, after all the defeated troops retreated, I quickly ordered the soldiers who maintained order to pull away the bamboo rafts laid on the trenches, and quickly blocked the entrance with charging horses.
After that, two rows of soldiers holding extended bamboo spears immediately blocked the entire defense line. Behind them was a row of heavily armed cavalry holding swords, but they had no horses to ride on. Further back was a row of archers. . . . .
When the heavy infantrymen of the Brown Bear Legion, who were as thick as "big carrots", came to the front of the defense line, the 2-meter-wide and 1-meter-deep trench made all of them fall into the dome. Cross it? There was no place to stand except for those sharp bamboo thorns on the other side; jump down, and then climb up again... Sweat, that's really courting death, those guys holding long spears on the opposite side can easily stab me to death, and the so-called heavy infantrymen are only equipped with helmets and breastplates, and a pair of arm guards, but not the whole body is wrapped in iron armor...
