As he deliberately concealed the truth, there was no way for the Lagu soldiers to know that, apart from shooting, the most common daily training for the First Army soldiers was bayonet fighting.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The Gul soldier, who had a calm expression just now, suddenly looked ferocious, as if he had a grudge against the Lagu soldier for murdering his father, and rushed forward with murderous aura.
This is what Zhang Mu taught them.
If you can't muster the desire to kill unfamiliar enemies, then imagine them as the people you hate the most.
"Damn it!"
After breaking the tree trunk that had fallen to the ground, the commander of the Lagu Vanguard Army took in the scene and said, "Report to the Legion Commander!"
In the tent, Gideon received the message with a calm expression: "Reply to the vanguard army, fight to the last man, and report back all the intelligence we have found."
"Yes!"
The sun rises.
"Report! The vanguard suffered heavy casualties, with only 3,000 soldiers left. The enemy is losing ground!"
"Report! Enemy reinforcements have arrived, about 4,000 men, carrying explosive iron bottles!"
Gideon, who was standing in the middle of the tent with his hands behind his back and eyes closed, opened his eyes.
Gul had already sent out all his forces, and all he had to do was surround the hill with a second army to win the war.
However, he didn't do so, and laughed to himself: "So, we want to go together."
He did nothing and remained silent.
In the past it would.
"Report! The entire vanguard army was killed in battle! The enemy's casualties are approximately 2000!"
Despite the terrifying 10 to 1 casualty ratio, his expression remained unchanged. He opened his mouth and ordered the professional messenger responsible for transmitting information: "The Second Army is on standby, and the Third Army is on the move.
Tell the Second Army to pay attention to what the enemy is doing."
The order was given.
The 20,000-strong Third Army, which had been stationed in the woods near the main battlefield, immediately set out and rushed to the top of the mountain.
The mountain was not high and it took more than ten minutes to reach the top. The Gul army, who had sat down to rest, immediately got up to fight.
Because of their hasty reaction, they did not have time to raise their guns and shoot, so Lagu's army avoided the rain of bullets and engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
"Report! The enemy was unaware of the ambush, more than 2000 casualties, retreat!"
"Report! The enemy has dug trenches in advance on another hilltop, and our army's pursuit has been repelled!"
"Report! The Second Army has surrounded the hilltop and is launching a fierce attack. The number of enemy arrows has dropped sharply!"
Only half left.
Gideon took a few steps forward to the sand table that had been built overnight, and his eyes fell on the low hill where the two armies were fighting.
Surrounded to death...
After staring at the top of the mountain where a few small trees were planted for a long time, he finally said slowly: "Third Army, draw 30,000 soldiers to support."
Several people who were busy analyzing the battle report around the table looked up with some confusion.
According to the strategy formulated last night, the Third Army should launch an all-out attack to encircle and suppress the Gul Army.
They looked at each other, and one of them said, "Commander, this has nothing to do with us..."
"Order."
The voice was not loud, but the person who spoke felt a chill all over his body: "Yes!"
The Lagu army had good military discipline. Although the incident was a bit sudden, they quickly mobilized 30,000 soldiers and rushed to the low mountain at full speed.
"Report! Thirty thousand soldiers join the siege!"
"Report! The number of enemy arrows has increased dramatically!"
"Report! Our troops have suffered heavy casualties and are about to enter the trenches!"
Victory seemed to be approaching. The messenger's voice gradually became lighter and his expression became more relaxed.
Another battle report came in. He scanned it and the corners of his mouth that had just risen suddenly stiffened:
"Report... Report! Our army has been attacked by multiple rounds of arrows. The arrows will cause violent explosions in a very large range. I... my army has 50,000 soldiers, but less than 10,000 are left!"
Almost being wiped out, everyone in the tent subconsciously stopped what they were doing and looked at the person reporting the order in astonishment.
"Ha, hahaha..." Gideon laughed wildly, attracting everyone's attention.
They all wondered if the acting legion commander couldn't bear such tragic casualties and went crazy.
"I knew it, I knew it!"
Gideon punched the sand table, and the low hill that the Gul army was defending was destroyed, and mud fell: "Explosion, you can release the explosion, of course you will try your best to increase the power,
He has been trying to lure me into joining forces to attack, even going so far as to put his entire army in a desperate situation with no way out!"
"Commander!"
"exist!"
"Give the order. The 20,000-man Third Army will march out, along with the 10,000 cavalry in the camp!"
"Yes!"
"Tell them not to maintain formation and to disperse as much as possible, even during battle!"
"Yes!"
The overall situation has been decided.
Gideon dragged a wooden chair over and sat down, his forehead covered with sweat and he was breathing heavily.
"General, Commander-in-Chief."
Everyone looked at each other blankly. A war report analyst asked hesitantly, "What you just said..."
"Explosion." Gideon did not pretend to be profound. After catching his breath, he explained with a smile, "Their reinforcements brought explosive cans.
I don’t understand the principle, I don’t know how they make it, but it doesn’t matter, I just know they have it.”
Standing up, he walked to the sand table and piled the scattered mud back in place: "Everyone.
If you get a wand in the maze that is only at the apprentice level but can be upgraded to the legendary level, would you dislike its current low level and give up using it?"
"How could it be!" the professional battle report analyst shouted, "I want to sacrifice my life for this...
I understand, Commander."
Nodding his head in approval, Gideon leaned over and stared at the mud fragments piled together in a mess. "The commander of the Gul army has the same idea as me. We want to decide the outcome in one go.
Otherwise he would not have allowed his only two armies to get so close to each other.
Since he had made such a decision, why didn't the vanguard army take any tin cans? Was there not enough?
Haha, with so many arrows, this reason doesn’t make sense.
There is only one possibility, they are luring the enemy, hoping that we will concentrate our soldiers so that their explosive arrows can exert their maximum power, and strive to destroy our main force in one battle."
"So that's how it is." Everyone who was listening attentively said in sudden realization.
"Mr. Gideon's military ability is indeed amazing. No wonder Mr. Brando is trying his best..."
"Your Excellency, the Commander of the Legion."
The messenger holding the sound transmission crystal suddenly uttered a trembling voice.
Gideon had a bad feeling in his heart: "What's wrong?"
"You'd better take a look at this." His right hand, which handed over the bark paper, was shaking as if he was ill.
Taking the paper, Gideon glanced quickly from left to right.
The remaining 30,000 soldiers of our army gathered together and immediately prepared to disperse and advance, but before the order was fully conveyed to the soldiers, an arrow suddenly fell straight from the sky.
Seeing this, he frowned.
Even if the arrow explodes with great power, what good will it do if there is only one?
Keep looking back.
The following seems to be the narration of the soldiers on the scene.
“I fell behind and was anxious to catch up with the team, but the commander didn’t tell me where the assembly point was.
So I climbed to the top of a big tree and saw my ant-sized comrades from afar.
It seemed like we were about to set off, and I was anxious and wanted to shout "wait for me".
They didn't respond to me, looking up at the sky in confusion.
I looked too.
It was a strange-looking arrow, without a very sharp tip.
When it fell vertically close to everyone's heads, I didn't know what happened. My vision suddenly turned white, there were explosions, and... it was hot...
I can’t breathe…”
Chapter 221: The last fight, the accident, the dust settled
Gur Army Command Post.
In the tent, Zhang Mu, who had just rushed back, moved a wooden chair and sat in the corner, silent.
From last night to this morning, he and Mih had not seen any trace of the escaped Lagu professional.
Quite strange.
It is true that the other party's professionals suffered heavy casualties, but that does not mean they are powerless to fight, so there is no reason for them to hide from me.
If they wanted to retreat, the main force would stay in the forest and even keep the bonfire lit all night, making it clear that they were determined to fight to the death with Gul.
After Zhang Mu entered the Silent Forest last night, he soon discovered the camp set up by Lagu on the top of the mountain.
Originally, I wanted to pour the potion and then throw a falling spirit at it.
