On the mountainside of the road leading to Korotan Fortress, Arthur sat quietly, holding his breath and focusing on the darkness in the distance.
After guarding the south gate for an hour, a green line streaked across the night sky. It was the signal that Arthur and Aiders had agreed on. The loss of soldiers made it impossible for him to buy more time for his first wife to make arrangements. As soon as he received the signal, Arthur quickly ordered the retreat.
The 3rd Cavalry Regiment dismounted and fought. Although Arthur had ordered many warhorses to be killed, they were much fewer than the warhorses that their masters had killed. Having suffered too many casualties, it made it easier for them to retreat. Arthur, who had abandoned his comrade's body and led the rest of the soldiers to retreat, felt an indescribable pain in his heart.
Taking advantage of the gap between the two waves of attacks, Arthur's subordinates retreated quickly. The Darcy Cavalry in the city could not react in time. It was late at night, and they couldn't see far. They didn't run far before they successfully shook off Darcy's pursuers and slowly came to a mountainside. The ambush that followed would not be able to stop the Darcy Army.
Behind Arthur, the soldiers who had experienced a series of high-intensity battles and galloping were already exhausted. They wrapped their clothes tightly and sat on the ground to expel the fatigue. Some of the seasoned soldiers who had gotten oil had even started to beat up.
Seeing this, Arthur did not blame them. The soldiers who had survived the previous battles were definitely good. However, to be cautious, he still arranged for Locke to lead his men to guard the surroundings.
"Sir, what are you looking at? What's there to see in that dark place? I think the Da Xi Army should be chasing after us soon. Why don't we go back and kill them again?”The mountain guard was sitting beside Arthur and looking around. He saw Arthur staring at the dark night sky and couldn't help but come over and say sneakily.
"Go to the side. Nonsense. Look at them. Can they still fight?”Arthur pointed at the warrior sitting on the ground behind him and said to the Mountain Army in a bad mood. This guy was famous for his ruthlessness and bravery. In the past, he fought in the tribe, but now, he was eager to fight a few battles to live. However, his brain was just a decoration.
" Hehe." Shan Jun chuckled. He obviously saw that his suggestion was inappropriate, but he continued.
" I know, my lord. It's fine if we don't fight back. However, why don't you let us go to the ambush later? Our barbarian warriors are still alive and kicking. I guarantee that we'll earn some credit for you. We won't…" The mountain soldier came over and said excitedly. He couldn't take it anymore. He might as well kill a few Darcy kids.
"You brat, stop thinking about these things. With just a few of you, what can you do there? Get lost and look after the horses. Don't you know that the horses that you rode are still panting from exhaustion?”Arthur said with a cold face." You don't feel sorry for me, but I feel sorry for the dead barbarian warriors. It's not easy for me to save up my wealth." Arthur felt that his aristocratic temperament would wear off sooner or later after spending time with these soldiers.
"Uh…Sir, don't be angry. I was just talking nonsense. I'll go and see the horses now.”Before he could finish his sentence, the Mountain Troop, who had been refuted by Arthur, grunted and quickly said with a smile. This kid loved to stir up trouble. It was not very useful to talk to him nicely. He had to give orders coldly. This kid liked this.
He looked at the tall back of the mountain army speechlessly. Who would have thought that this warlike and fierce barbarian man on the battlefield would usually be like this?
Shaking his head, Arthur turned around and looked at the pitch-black night sky in the distance.
In fact, it was not just the night sky. There were just some things that others could not see. With Arthur's strength and eyesight, he could see it clearly.
Above the valley on the left side of the mountainside, ice hung densely in the air like knives. Large patches of ice covered the entire valley, and the ice continued to rise from the mountainside. Arthur knew that it was Aiders 'ability, but this girl was too arrogant. It was just a defeat, was there a need for that? With the amount of ice, his first wife must have put in a lot of effort.
" Hey, hey, you…come here, how far are we from the enemy…"
At the back of Darcy's pursuers, the fat prefect was lying weakly on the horse's back. His fat was stacked together, and he was sweating and itching from the horse's galloping. He somewhat regretted following Darcy's army to pursue the enemy. The horse beneath him was so tired that it was barely in shape. It moved forward with difficulty. The fat prefect's entire body trembled like a water ball. Aiyo, this battle was really not done by humans. However, when he thought about how he would be rewarded if he could successfully annihilate the soldiers of the dynasty who had escaped from the city, his heart was itching to catch up with the dynasty's army.
"Milord, the Bowl Valley is in front of us. Our people have found traces of the enemy there. I believe we will catch up soon.”The Darcy Warrior who was following Fatty at a low speed looked at Fatty's trembling fat with disgust. If it was not for the order from his superiors, he would not have bothered with this fatty even if he was beaten to death.
" Good, good, good." Fatty chuckled, his fat face trembling violently. He seemed to see the scene of him accepting the reward in the golden hall again, unaware that he was approaching hell step by step.
Halfway up the mountain beside Bowl Valley, Aiders, whose face was covered in sweat, raised her right hand and looked anxiously in the direction of Camil City. Why was she still not here? On the woman's right hand, pieces of blade-shaped ice were rapidly condensing and flying into the sky.
It didn't take long before a torch came from afar like a long snake. Even though they were halfway up the mountain, the pitch-black night couldn't block the murderous aura and the sound of horse hooves.
Aiders was delighted at first, but then her pretty face turned cold. Success would depend on this move. I'm one of the three strongest men in the empire, the ever-victorious general of the empire. I won't let my city be taken over so easily.
Meeting you is the happiness of my life. The woman couldn't help but think of Arthur, who was nowhere to be found. That guy must be secretly happy. Hmph, when I have more sisters, I will join them to deal with you. You will suffer!
Concentrating and dispelling the thoughts in his mind, Aiders turned to the three Beast Warriors beside him with a cold expression. They had nothing to do with the previous confrontation, but this time, the theft of the city happened so suddenly and they retreated so quickly that they had nothing to do with it. At this moment, they were all looking at their commander with fervent expressions. It should be their turn this time.
"Act according to plan!"
"Yes, sir!"×3
The three beast warriors were delighted and left.
At the same time, Arthur also summoned Locke and began to reorganize his troops. According to the plan, he would not be involved in the final annihilation, but the situation was unpredictable. In order to prevent any changes, he still gathered his troops.
The Bowl Valley was called the Bowl Valley, but it was actually more like a big plate. The difference between the inside and outside was not big, so it was not a dangerous place. Therefore, without any pause, they only needed to scout for a while before Darcy's pursuers entered the Bowl Valley. The enemy was right in front of them, and they couldn't let them escape.
As soon as they entered the valley, the soldiers of Darcy felt the temperature around them drop. However, this was a winter night after the snow had melted. It was so cold that they did not pay much attention to it. They continued to rush into the valley. Little did they know that the Sword of Damocles, forged from countless ice, could fall at any time and announce their destined fate.
Finally, when they all entered the Bowl Valley, the Grim Reaper descended.
Without any warning, countless blade-shaped ice poured down like rain. The Darcy soldiers had nowhere to hide. In an instant, there were countless casualties. Countless people and horses were nailed to death in the valley. The valley that was supposed to be peaceful and quiet had become a bloody battlefield.
Immediately after, the fire at the bottom of the valley continued. The iron cannons that had been prepared long ago sprayed tongues of fire, harvesting fresh lives.
When the ice was gone and the iron cannons were shot red, the soldiers of the Imperium who were lying in ambush rushed to the bottom of the valley and began to use the long sabers in their hands to wash away the grievances they had suffered tonight.
The night blocked everything. Even if they were fully prepared, they might lose their command in the night attack and lose their formation, let alone the unprepared Darcy's pursuers. The terrifying scene of no one in sight and the icy rain had already scared them out of their wits. The dense iron cannons that followed had made them cover their heads and flee like rats. The Da Xi Army had become a paste in an iron pot here. Everyone wished that their mother could give them two more legs. How could they resist?
However, gradually, when the Darcy Army realized that they were surrounded and that they would not be able to escape unless they killed their way out, their eyes turned red from killing and they roared as they charged at the dynasty's soldiers. However, all of this was futile. How could the scattered sand fight against the tiger army led by the Diju Envoy? Corpses fell to the ground one after another, their eyes still filled with extreme fear and despair. Those who had not breathed their last were convulsing and rolling on the ground, their blood splattering and dyeing the ground red.
The battle was already decided, and Darcy's five cavalry divisions had no room to resist.
As time passed, the shouts and shouts gradually died down.
"Take him away. You guys can solve it yourselves!”
After Arthur dealt with the scattered scattered soldiers on the road to Camil City, the woman looked at the fat prefect who was lying on the ground with feces and urine flowing out when she saw Aiders. She ordered him in disgust. Even the Queen, who was extremely scared of sh * t, could not bring herself to trample on that pile of meatballs.
Seeing who it was, Aiders was in a daze. It had been less than a night, but Aiders felt as if it was a lifetime ago. She fell into Arthur's arms without saying anything. She raised her head and looked at Arthur with unconcealable joy and admiration in her eyes. Arthur looked at the woman and returned her gentle gaze.
At this moment, silence was better than sound!
After staring at it for a while, the woman chuckled. She leaned her head against Arthur's chest with a happy smile on her face.
Look at the magpie bridge and other sea dry, mountains without edges, heaven and earth together, only wish to cut off the monarch. No matter what, just like this, love each other forever.
Under the night sky, a man and a woman in love quietly embraced each other. The moonlight also playfully shot out from the clouds, embellishing this beautiful scene.
---------------------------------------
This was the end of the war with the northern races. Darcy's deliberate plot had failed, and hundreds of thousands of people had been killed. The battle had been decided. In the future, the matter of occupying the city fortress and trampling on the warriors of the north would be left to the Queen. It was time for Zser to return to the Imperial Capital. In addition, there were no more killings. Otherwise, if he killed so many people for no reason, how much hatred would he have? How could he rule the entire Slayer World?
