Chapter 185 Pocket Encounter (4)

The rain gradually shrank, but the water vapor stirred up did not disperse.

Count Fran stared blankly at the army rushing out of the fog, his eyes widened, and for a moment he thought he was dreaming.

The king and the prince died in the battle, the princess was missing, and the contact with other lords was cut off. This was the fact in front of him.

It was not until Viola led the army through Count Fran's eyes like a gust of wind that he suddenly realized.

That was not a dream, but reality!

The blood-red hair color that was beating like blood and had vitality was exactly the goal he followed. Since he was a child, he had heard his father tell the story of his ancestors following the king to fight.

Unexpectedly, he would have this day.

The Avarus royal family has never been a royal family that hides behind soldiers and generals to give orders. No matter what happens, the royal family always rushes to the front.

After all, if the king does not take action, how can the subordinates follow?

It is this kind of courageous charm that attracts countless people to follow willingly. Even though the country is now broken, there are still a large number of lords who are fighting bravely.

They are waiting for a man with blood-red hair to stand up and lead them to victory again.

The extinguished flame in their hearts seemed to be ignited by that ball of red hair.

Earl Fran, who was covered in wounds, felt full of strength. He did not feel the pain caused by the arrow piercing his shoulder at all, and turned on the horse flexibly.

Raising the sword with a corner knocked off, Earl Fran shouted loudly:

"Follow Her Royal Highness! Follow Her Royal Highness! Follow Her Royal Highness!"

One voice is higher and louder than the other.

The appearance of Viola re-lit up the world in Earl Fran's eyes, and the gray fog that could not see the future seemed to be torn apart by the sun.

The cavalry was also inspired to follow Earl Fran to charge, just as Earl Fran followed the bright red hair.

At this moment, confidence and strength returned to Count Fran. He laughed without hesitation and waved his sword like crazy.

See?

That is the monarch we follow. She is beautiful, resolute, will not be defeated by any difficulties, and will always move forward bravely!

–--——----

Unlike Count Fran who was strongly inspired, Isaac's mood can be described as rainy.

"What? The Third Cavalry can't join? Didn't they ask them to get rid of the enemy immediately?"

"The rain is too heavy, and the Third Cavalry can't see the road clearly."

"Impossible!"

Isaac stretched out his hand, and only some drizzle fell on his gauntlet:

"You also call it too heavy rain?"

"Uh... I don't know, but that's what the Third Cavalry reported, and they can't get rid of the enemy for the time being because of the heavy rain."

"Where is the Fourth Cavalry now?"

"Just reported that they have gotten rid of the enemy and are moving closer to us."

Finally heard good news, but then a messenger came running, and Isaac's heart skipped a beat.

"Report, the Fourth Cavalry was ambushed, the enemy controlled the valley, our army was attacked by rocks and arrows, and suffered heavy casualties. The Fourth Cavalry requested to withdraw from the battlefield."

"How is this possible? How could the enemy predict my order!"

Isaac gritted his teeth anxiously. Every order he issued to the cavalry took into account the detour of the enemy to facilitate the reunion, but no matter how he detoured, it seemed to be within the enemy's calculation.

"General, what should we do now?"

Yes, what should we do?

The original plan was to drive Earl Fran to a desperate situation, so the troops at hand were divided into four groups. Through magic communication and the high flexibility of the cavalry, they were like venomous snakes attacking from all sides.

This plan was made because our own troops were far greater than the enemy's. After all, Earl Fran was only here to harass the logistics and only brought 400 cavalry. Isaac's troops were divided into four groups to ensure that each group had more than 300 cavalry.

But the plan did not take into account the situation where Princess Viola suddenly jumped out, especially when the other party seemed to have figured out their details.

"Tell the 4th Cavalry to retreat, and the 3rd and 2nd Cavalry to get rid of the enemy as soon as possible and rush to join our army at full speed. If you encounter the enemy again, retreat and leave the battlefield immediately."

If the scattered troops continue to charge headlong, they are likely to be divided and surrounded by the enemy. Even if they are not completely wiped out in the end, they will probably not end well.

Looking at the soldiers who ran to pass the message, Isaac looked up at the sky.

Is there Viola's eyes in the sky?

The movements of our army were all seen clearly, and there was a wise commander behind the scenes who used the same tactics as his grandfather to annihilate the enemy through driving and ambush.

Isaac, who was caught off guard, felt the same feeling as Count Fran, who was completely powerless, just like being beaten with a sack.

But Isaac still had one last trump card to turn over, and it was not time for him to give up.

"Follow me, let's capture Princess Viola!"

The First Cavalry Squadron below has about 600 people because it is responsible for the frontal combat mission. Isaac's personal guards also have more than 200 people, at least on paper, they are still capable of fighting.

And Isaac is very confident in his military strength. Although he was a little behind in strategy today, he has not lost in terms of military strength!

–--——---

"Isaac must be thinking, 'I can capture Princess Viola myself!', so"

Wendy relaxed in front of the sand table. She sat on the chair and even reached out to take the cup of black tea handed by her housekeeper Reina.

"Little did you know that his every move has been under surveillance since yesterday. It is easier to predict the actions of such a hot-blooded guy than to predict the actions of a fool."

"This is the credit of the scout named Hill in Viola's army. Why are you so proud?"

"Of course, because I am the actual commander."

Although she appeared very calm, this was actually the first time Wendy commanded a battle.

She is different from Isaac. The latter was trained to be his successor, while Wendy just followed her grandfather and learned all the military tactics by herself.

However, Wendy is very talented. She has used the sand table to deduce countless times at home, dreaming that one day she can command thousands of troops.

Although the scale is small, it is also a dream come true.

Seeing her so proud, Ordai couldn't help but pour cold water on her:

"It's because the Lord told you the enemy's movements,"

"Indeed, I am also very grateful for the Lord's help,"

"If you have time, it's better to build a large temple in Qihang City instead of thanking you verbally,"

"I also mentioned it to His Highness and my father, but they didn't agree,"

The situation in Qihang City is too complicated, and the effect of sending people to preach is not necessarily very good.

Especially after Viola was assassinated, it is very likely that the centipede Lord believers lurking in Qihang City will attack the missionaries.

So both Viola and Wendy's father thought that at least before Qihang City ended the siege, it was not suitable for preaching.

But Lord Fran's incident gave Viola an opportunity, and it was also the first step in her decision to counterattack.
