The army of the Holy Alliance finally collapsed.
In fact, when they stepped into the trap carefully arranged by the Church of the Damned, they were already doomed to fail.
At the end of the war, when the coalition commander Sir Kahn realized this, he tried to make one last effort. He organized an elite team consisting of dozens of silver and white knights. Under the leadership of a paladin with fifteen professional levels, he headed towards the big man standing on the earth platform, who was casting spells and maintaining the curse circle. The mage launched a charge.
This caused some troubles for the Devil's Eye, but in the end the paladin still failed. He was entangled by a bone dragon that fell from the sky, and his subordinates were blocked by the dark guards guarding the black wizards, and then fell on the way of charging under the bombardment of a high-level spell by the archmage .
Seeing that nothing could be done and that defeat was inevitable, Sir Kahn made a decisive decision and chose to retreat.
His choice is correct.
After his Holy Legion had suffered casualties and lost more than 4,000 people, the morale of the entire army had dropped to a rather low level. Moreover, because of the existence of the curse circle, the soldiers became weaker and weaker, and their combat effectiveness became lower and lower. Even the priests could no longer purify every fallen corpse.
Relatively speaking, the group of undeads they faced became more and more brave as they fought, and the number remained at three or four thousand, and they never went down—no matter how many were hacked to death by human soldiers.
Kahn had to recognize the fact that if he continued to fight the undead within the scope of the curse circle, there was only one dead end.
So, after the entire battle lasted for an hour, he led the troops to break out and retreat.
However, until that night, Kahn's troops were still being entangled wildly by the undead, and they finally couldn't hold on.
At night, the combat capability of the human army is inevitably affected to a certain extent. It has become more difficult to maintain discipline, maintain the cohesion of the army, and maintain morale, and the command system is certainly not as smooth as it was during the day.
Then came the real crash.
During the day, when Sir Kahn ordered the retreat, the army of the Holy Alliance was able to fight while retreating and maintain a certain order. And at night, after being pursued for a day, the entire army completely collapsed.
Kahn has no way to continue to control the army under his command, he can only lead a group of elite troops close to him, and try his best to break out of the encirclement.
By the side, Firmino, who had observed silently for a day, made a decision. At the end of the last message he sent out today, he wrote his personal advice.
Although there are no clear regulations, generally speaking, the information sent and conveyed by ordinary intelligence personnel should be as objective and detailed as possible, avoiding their own subjective color, let alone What immediate advice and advice should be provided. They only need to pass back real and reliable information. Military decisions are made by the generals, and political and diplomatic decisions are also handled by corresponding people.
Firmino is an excellent intelligence officer, of course he understands this truth.
However, this time, he still decided to make an exception.
Among his suggestions to Palan, he hoped that Palan could lead the troops to save the Legion of the Holy Alliance.
Firmino certainly doesn't have the heart of a Virgin, he doesn't have that kind of leisure, and he never feels sympathy for human beings being slaughtered, and wants to save the world. Not to mention, the purpose of the army of the Holy Alliance to march towards the fir collar at the beginning was to be an enemy of Schindler.
And the reason why he wanted Palan to save the Holy Alliance's army was because of one thing: this should be the most beneficial approach for the Fir Territory—no, it should be said that it was the most beneficial for the entire kingdom's strategy in the west.
The Church of the Damned has bared its fangs in the area of Fir Collar. The coalition forces of the Holy Alliance have become the first victim under the method of cursing the church.
So, who will be the second
One can imagine a picture: If the Sixth Army was severely injured or even annihilated in Firland, then it meant that Florence had no other barriers. And once the whole of Florence falls into the hands of these lunatics, what will happen
Keep your eyes shallow, the kingdom has worked hard, and all the benefits won in Florence will be wiped out with the invasion of the Church of the Damned; look farther away, the overall grandeur of the Church of the Cursed will be a disaster for the entire world , the Kingdom of Schindler bears the brunt!
No matter what, we must develop the power of the Curse Church and find a way to contain it in the fir collar!
…
In fact, there was no need for Firmino to make any suggestions. When the letters of battlefield information were sent to him, Palan had already made a decision.
The army was not so fast to move, but he still sent out the vanguard very decisively.
Among the Sixth Army Corps, the most mobile wing was dispatched.
The Sixth Army, the Desert Camel Cavalry Wing, received an urgent order from General Palan before dark. With cooperation, they left Blackwood City and headed towards the place where the battle broke out.
Soon, the camel cavalry unit got in touch with Firmino.
The top secret agent of the Black Hand Academy, after the battle between the Holy Alliance and the undead, has been following Sir Kahn's troops. When he received the news that the camel unit was approaching, he immediately showed up and went directly to the lord jazz.
To show their identities and gain trust, the two forces made preliminary contact.
The number of soldiers directly led by Sir Kahn is less than 2,000. In the dark night, the soldiers fled in a panic, but at least this gentleman is not a complete pussy in military command. He commanded the army, while resisting the attack of the undead, while trying his best to get closer to the direction of the reinforcements.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, the camel cavalry arrived.
The arrival of a new force has brought about a very significant change in the battle situation. The undead army that had been chasing behind Sir Kahn was quickly dispersed under the charge of the camel cavalry. Several black mages who controlled this army were also found out by Master Miller and Apus Mage, and they organized a team to surround and kill them.
With no time to rest, the two armies merged into one body and headed towards Blackwood City overnight.
