The army of Galvin and Anders was also in chaos. Dane's plan to drive out the rout and attack the enemy's formation, with the cooperation of Governor Oze, obviously achieved great success!
In fact, if either of the two of them can rush to the army before the army collapses, it may still be possible to restore the situation.
As the chief generals in the army, the two of them have quite enough prestige. If they came forward to scold them, the rout soldiers might be stopped and routed.
Even if they can't do this, with the hearts of the two of them, if they can issue some more decisive orders, for example, when the rout troops attack their own phalanx formation, decisively order the troops still in command to directly kill If any disobedient routs resolutely block the routs from the formation, although they will not be able to turn the tide, at least they can prevent the army from collapsing so quickly.
But who made it so that the two of them were both entangled by Ou Ze at that time and neither was there
Now, the northern group army can really be regarded as the end of the world. The impact of the rout of Hackett's troops on the entire Northern Army was simply devastating. The rear is unstable, and Ou Ze's main army is fighting back frantically in front. How can the Northern Army be able to turn defeat into victory
This war started in the afternoon, and when the overall situation was settled, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon. However, the flames of war did not stop. The northern group army, which was completely defeated, ran across the wasteland, while Dane and Oze's main army were chasing after them.
A battle is not about defeating the opponent. If it is not possible to effectively expand the results of the battle, annihilate as many enemies as possible, and completely beat the opponent's army to the point where it is impossible to regroup, with the quality of the Northern Army, they may still be able to regroup later.
This chase lasted for a whole day. Even after dark, Dane and Ou Ze's troops didn't stop. They didn't give up until the noon of the next day when the actual battle report came out.
The results are quite reliable. The main force of the Northern Group Army was almost 40,000 people, and it had been completely defeated. The troops that were wiped out looked like more than 30,000 people. Among them, the actual number of casualties in the war is not particularly large. It is estimated that about 10,000 people were killed, and most of the other 20,000 battle results were lost after the entire army collapsed.
Among the more than 20,000 people who were captured during the pursuit, those who were killed on the spot were actually not too many, they looked like a few thousand people, and the remaining soldiers of the Northern Army who had at least 13,000 people were handed over. He took off his weapon and armor, and became a prisoner in a prisoner-of-war camp.
In addition, there were six or seven thousand troops, but they were not killed or captured, but escaped the joint pursuit of Ou Ze and Dane. But the reason why they were able to escape was mainly because they ran fast and slipped farther away while the other troops were being cleared away, and the reason why they escaped was more scattered, maybe a few or a dozen people formed a small group. The small ones are more difficult to chase, and there is no point in chasing them. Ou Ze and Dane don't bother to pay attention to these soldiers.
Among the three senior generals of the Northern Army, Hackett was killed by Dane in the formation. As for the other two, when they realized that the general situation was over, they were unwilling to continue fighting in a desperate situation. They gave up their desperate struggle with Ou Ze and chose to run away with their personal guards.
During the pursuit, Anders was unfortunately chased up, and his head was strung on the tip of Ou Ze's sword.
As for Galvin, he escaped successfully. However, although he successfully ran away, it was meaningless to the general situation. After more than a day of chasing, the remnants of the Northern Army did not know how scattered it was, and it was difficult for him to reorganize the troops. Even if he could, it didn't make much sense. The troops he could sort out were only a few thousand, which didn't help.
On December 25th, Ou Ze and Dane, who had rested for a day after stopping the pursuit, led the army and escorted 13,000 captives into the Ice Cave City.
The prisons and dungeons of Ice Cave City have been requisitioned and filled with captives.
But how big can a city's dungeon be? There is simply no room for so many people! In the end, they even had to vacate many public buildings and private houses for detaining these prisoners.
When the officers and soldiers under him were busy with these tasks, Dane found Ou Ze.
"I want to borrow troops." Dane said straight to the point.
"Okay." Ou Ze also agreed in one breath. His expression now is very relaxed, with some curiosity.
Before, when Dane forced him to start a decisive battle with the Northern Army, he was reluctant. He feels the risk is high.
But now that he has won the battle, of course there is no such concern. Moreover, after the Northern Army was annihilated, for Ou Ze, he solved a serious problem in his heart, and he would feel better, which was natural.
He had no intention of kicking Dane away. After a real observation that seeing is believing, he quite recognized the combat strength of Dane's army, and also recognized Dane as an ally.
Oze didn't have particularly big ambitions, he didn't have the idea of killing Conley, then destroying Dane, and monopolizing Schindler. He is already a bit old, and he has no children, let alone a family, what good is it to monopolize Schindler? The reason why he beat Conley was to avenge Bernier, his best friend. Now, although the Northern Army Group has been wiped out, Kang Li is not dead yet.
What's more, they signed the agreement before. After defeating the Northern Army Group, he will lend part of the army to Dane to deal with the demon army that Conley went south.
This agreement is not an ordinary black and white agreement, but a contract that is communicated with the blood of both parties and the power of magic. If it is violated, big things will happen.
In this way, there is no psychological difficulty for Ou Ze to borrow soldiers. Even when Dane said later that he would not only borrow his soldiers, but also himself, so that they could fight Conley to the death together, he did not refuse. He also wanted to kill that bastard Conley with his own hands.
However, he did have some curiosity. According to the latest information from the south, Kangli's army of demons has breached Shawan Harbor.
This is already two days ago, the news on the 22nd. As soon as Shawan Harbor was broken, the entire south of Schindler basically declared that the entire territory had been poisoned by Conley, and there was no other place except for a lone White Wolf Castle.
Moreover, maybe, after these two days passed, the current White Wolf Fort might have been breached.
But Dane's anxious look, why does it look like he wants to lead his troops back as soon as possible to save his territory from danger? Including before, when Dane was eager to start a decisive battle with the Northern Army, it was the same.
From the Ice Cave City to the White Wolf Castle in the south, there is a distance of several hundred kilometers. It will take at least half a month to run back. Persisting for so long under the onslaught of the demon army.
This is what Ou Ze has been unclear about and is also very curious about.
