Chapter 52 The Unfinished Agreement
The war continued to move forward, and the wolf-eating man Koelchaha was unwilling to do so, and could not violate the orders of the head of the family, so he had to order to drive and move to the edge of the forest. He really wanted to carry the messenger's collar from Bilson and roar: I haven't even found the main position of the elves yet!
He marched with a complaint and cautious attitude, but because the scouts were killed too many times, he was very unfamiliar with the terrain. So he naturally fell into a slump.
On the 13th day of the year and two months after the Xiguang Agreement, the Essim army was ambushed in the Soling Valley and suffered heavy losses. Koelchaha made a quick decision and abandoned the three infantry corps and baggage units that had been surrounded, and led a limited cavalry to cover the Prime Minister's territory's army to break south. After five hours of battle, five corpses, including from Bilson and other territories, were defeated, and about 12,000 people were killed or captured. The Essim army lost more than half, but they snatched out all the Prime Minister's troops and some of the baggage, which was injured but could still fight.
When the news came back, Essin was in an uproar. Because the expectations for the war were too good before the imperial meeting and no information was controlled, the news immediately flooded, and it was too late to control it after it reacted.
People who were not aware of the inside story condemned Korchaha for his greed for his achievements and his aggressiveness. Several mainstream newspapers even put forward sensational titles such as "Wolf Eater Executioner". However, only some tabloids, under the disclosure or instruction of some people, questioned how the wolf eater had such a low-level mistake, and reflected the prime minister behind him in and out. In short, the focus was still on Essim's mistakes, rather than the elves' abilities.
Korchaha, who could only be scolded but could not be retaliated, explained in detail the ambush in his letter to the Prime Minister's Prefecture Conference.
"...When the central army passed through the Solin Valley, tobacco medicine for mining seemed to be put into the pass, and the hideous plants grew out like an explosion. The soldiers were frightened. The officials ordered the monster trees that blocked the way. But no one expected that the plants were rich in more fat than barbecue! The flames and black smoke that soared into the sky made the army divide the square pieces..."
"...Each part was subjected to a different attack. Some were swept away by the tide of beasts that suddenly emerged, and various wolf, fox, eagle and some giant beasts that were unrecognizable. Our shield formation was destroyed in an instant, and then the formal army of the elves appeared. Each of them was an experienced fighting archer. Within a distance of 100 to 30 sams, the killing efficiency of the elves' bows and arrows was too high, and the chain mail and breastplate could not stop the feather arrows that penetrated the eyes and the armpits. Then they drew out the daggers and round shields to impact. The opponent's formation and impact were not strong, but our team had collapsed...
"Other part, the soldiers stood in the river to avoid the high temperature and thick smoke, but there was a terrifying monster inside. It looked like a crocodile, but no crocodile could swallow six people in one bite! It swallowed it with its weapon armor. There were two extremely long tentacles on the corner of the giant crocodile's mouth. It broke the bones and broke it. No standard weapons known at present could harm it. The close-range shooting of the crossbow actually stuck on the carapace. The giant crocodile was lured by the elves. Fortunately, the enemy could not control the nightmare creatures, and several elves were eaten..."
"When I try to lead the cavalry to retaliate against the enemy, the stones at the gate will fall like rain. This is the place where I cannot understand the most. The creation of the thief of this size will be very large, but the scouts have reconnaissed the launch location in advance, and there is nothing but some trees. How did the elves hide the thief..."
This report, which looks similar to the novel of the gods and monsters, was burned by the Prime Minister. If it was fake, then the statement of Korchaha's shirking responsibility was really disgusting. If it was true... it would not be spread. The Prime Minister is the biggest vested interest and promoter of this war. If the war is unfavorable, most of the responsibility will fall on him. The seat under his butt is already shaking. He is relying on his long-term prestige and the confidence of the people. Information about how powerful the elves cannot be leaked.
Soon the imperial meeting wrote a stern notice, but no longer urged the wolf eaters to march.
The elves took advantage of the victory and pursued them. After paying little casualties, they won two small stops on the front battlefield, and forced the Essim army to retreat 50 sarris.
However, Kumara's military force intervened and the situation took a sharp turn. On the 17th, Tiya prepared a large-scale army to attack Essin. At this time, the vanguard archers, the vanguard of the left-wing military commander, rushed to provide assistance for a long distance and was discovered by the Black Feathers. Tiya sent sniper troops to shoot fiercely. The Kumara archers actually rushed to the front battlefield regardless of the damage and disrupted Tiya's pace. Then Kumara's main force arrived, and Garlandode was forced to retreat.
"The elves are afraid of major casualties. Although they have unknown means, they have been using surprise weapons to weaken them and then fight head-on to reduce their damage. Then we will fight hard with them." When the left-wing military commander Birchfield said this, his tone was as cold as steel.
He took advantage of the unfavorable political situation in Koelchaha and forced him to use the army as a pathfinder and forcibly advance without regard to casualties. If Tiya sniped, Birchfield seized the opportunity to use high-mobile cavalry to snatch it. In this way, the casualties of the elves and humans increased significantly in a ratio of 1 to 3, but Tiya could not bear it first and retreated continuously.
On the fifth day of the third month, a small team of Tiya tried to sneak into Kumara camp and burned wheat and wait for food.
The young secret arrow Druit Tahini opened the barn and his face turned pale in an instant.
"I'm fooled! Go quickly!" He didn't explain much to the five Rangers' partners, and there was no need to say much about the trust between Gong and Ye Zhifu.
The heavy footsteps sounded in the distance, and Tahini's wooden stick was slight, and the entanglement technique covered the area behind him. However, the pursuers were wearing steel boots with sharp blades, and their steps broke through the vines, and their speed was only slightly hindered. The rangers led their bows to fight back, and then they opened the distance.
They ran towards the dense forest in the east, where there would be a team of support. Tahini was panting on the way, but his mind was thinking about something more important. Hei Yu's information was based on the two birds to confirm the location of the barn, but only the upper layer in the barn was wheat, and straw was covered with straw. This trap was set against the birds' lack of thinking ability. Kumara had already seen through the druid's detection methods!
Thinking of this, he silently recited the name of the left-wing military governor and felt a little cold.
"There's no way!" said the Ranger with a scar on his face.
Tahini was shocked, and the sound of hoofs on the road leading to the jungle was heard, and his pockets were tightened. The 5 rangers turned their heads to look at the druid, who was full of panic. After all, he was not yet an adult. He took a few breaths and tried hard to calm down. He looked around.
"There are hillsides in the southwest. Let's go there, at least... won't be hit by pincers..." His voice was dry.
The rangers said nothing and ran southwest directly. They already knew that it was today to throw themselves into the arms of Sifanaus, but the warriors of Garlandode could not die.
The hillside was very slow, and they finally found a cliff, so they stopped to prepare. The atmosphere was very depressing, and the scar-faced ranger said, "The army will return to the forest if it retreats."
Other Ranger Interfaces, "Yes. The Kumara people in the Eagle are less afraid of death than we think, and they adapt to spells very quickly."
"I wonder if we will be regarded as heroes?" a ranger said with a smile.
"Of course, the pillars of the Balancing Temple will leave us one..." The laughter gradually spread.
Tahini lowered his head: "I'm sorry."
"Why apologize?"
"You should have become living heroes, and the reputation of glorious magic shooter on the battlefield is because of me..."
"Is it your responsibility for information error?" asked Scarface Ranger.
"No, but I..."
"It's not that you're just tangled!"
After a long silence, the human army below was gathering, seeing at least 500 people. They shouted in half-baked Tiya, calling on them to surrender, claiming that they would be given corresponding treatment.
"Tahini, although your natural transformation has not been long, it is enough to fly out of this part. Go away, Narah is still waiting for you. I will not be able to raise my head if I let a minor child die with us." The Ranger said deliberately and evilly.
The little druid took out an acorn from his close body and said with a purse, "If I leave you behind, I will become the first Tiya to defil the bow and Ye Zhiswo. I will never be able to look up at Narah for the rest of my life."
He stood up firmly, although his knees were a little shaking. He shouted loudly: "Under the shade! The secret arrow druid and the magic archer are with each other's life and death! Golden Oak Evergreen, Tiya is prosperous!"
The rangers smiled and looked at each other, saying in unison: "Golden oaks are eternal, Tiya is prosperous!"
The human troops arrived, and the front row was lined up in a shield with tower shields, as if they were slowly advancing into the city wall, which was airtight.
Tahini stood in a slightly hidden position and planted acorns. The golden saplings broke through the ground...
Half an hour later, the Scarface Ranger strangled an enemy with a bowstring, and was then pushed down by five enemies. He was the last Ranger to live, and Tahini was captured alive. A whole team of soldiers surrounded the elves in robes, covered their mouths, tied each of his fingers, so that he would not have any abnormal movements. In this way, the soldiers around him would still be facing a great enemy.
An officer with Kumara's military characteristics came up, looking at the two elves captured alive with bloodshot eyes, excited and angry. For the sake of the six enemies, he lost more than two hundred professional soldiers who had been through many battles, all of whom were good children he trained himself. However, if he could get the secret of the elves' divine power, it would be worth 20,000 to die. The progress of the military power of the Chongying Kumara never stopped.
"Kumala admires the two of you who will never give up on military qualities, but you can pause. The following is the confrontation between the upper class, and it has nothing to do with us. Stop resisting, I believe that the Queen of Garlanderd will redeem you."
The two elves collided slightly, and the ranger was all in that look: Under the shade of the tree, let's get together again.
"Puchi!" He knocked the back of his head on the stone.
"Silly!" the officer scolded, but most importantly, Tia, in her robe, is still alive, and he will not give him a chance to commit suicide.
Tahini's eyes passed over the bodies of the five rangers. After spending two years together, he laughed, scolded, and shared life and death... But he was not sad. The druid who walked halfway into the river of death would only look forward to the reunion later.
He suddenly remembered what Flamil asked: "Do you have a partner to love?" He suddenly felt a deep regret and guilt in his heart. Narah, you want to find a better elf, I can't use it as a punching bag for you anymore...
"He has something in his arms!"
The excess acorn was born under the druid. Inspired by the natural energy contained in his flesh and blood, imperfect branches grew, and the energy fruits on it were flickering. Tahini closed his eyes and gave up his control of the golden tree.
"Boom boom boom..."
Two days later, Narah from the Forest Front knelt down and cried, holding Tahini's only head left by him. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
