Chapter 37: Retreat
A few days later.
March 10th, night.
"Quick! Come on! The enemy is about to catch up!"
Sanali, who was riding on a horse, quickly commanded the soldiers and said that the torches around them lit up everything nearby. At this moment, thousands of people were trying to evacuate to the third stronghold outside the city, and immediately behind the retreating Nomars and soldiers in the Epillist District were groups of nine-nation coalition forces.
"Menlu, how is the retreat of the troops now? Have you evacuated yet?"
In a hurry, Sanali asked a white-haired girl.
"It's basically here. The troops are basically retreating towards the third line of defense in batches as planned. The speed of the nine-nation coalition breaking through the defense line is one day faster than we expected! It really underestimates their combat effectiveness!"
Monroe frowned a little and looked at the flames in the distance. The flames in the distance were all torches in the hands of the nine-nation coalition soldiers. The number of people was about 2,000 people, but in order to avoid its front, Sanali and others had to withdraw their troops. Moreover, the field battle was also unfavorable to the defense, so Sanali and others The moment the defense line was broken through, the man ordered the troops to withdraw, and deployed some guerrilla troops to harass the nine-nation coalition forces on the way to withdraw.
"Two lieutenant colonels! The sixth group came to support the retreat!"
At this time, a captain appeared in front of Sanali and Monroe with several teams to
"Very good, let your pupil-eater troops disperse harass the nine-nation coalition forces and delay their pursuit. Ordinary soldiers establish a line of defense on the spot. Remember not to retreat immediately after a while!"
Sanali rode on a horse and looked at the captain in front of her and said quickly. Now the troops of the Nine-Nation Alliance are still chasing the troops in Nomars and the Effiliest District. At this time, many of the wounded in the troops are withdrawing slower than the speed of the Nine-Ning Alliance. If not, If you block it, you will definitely be caught up before you reach the third line of defense, and then you will have to fight, and now it is too unfavorable for you with this kind of military situation.
"I understand! The teams dispersed to sniper ordinary troops to establish positions on the spot! We can't be ashamed when we go to the first battle! Go!"
"Yes!!!!!!"
Then, the soldiers of the entire Sixth Group immediately acted according to the planned combat plan. The establishment of the defense line should be harassed.
Although they are all a group of recruits, after all, they are a nourishing force. The morale is much higher than those troops that are withdrawing at this moment, and the troops that are currently withdrawing have at least experienced more than two days of combat. At this moment, they are exhausted. If they continue to fight, It is impossible to exert its strength, so Sasari arranged the withdrawal of this newly transformed force as a backup force to support the first and second line of defense.
With the help of the Sixth Group formation, the withdrawal troops of the first and second defense lines successfully shook off the pursuit troops of the nine-nation coalition and arrived at the third defense line a few hours later, while the whole sixth group formation successfully withdrew half an hour after blocking the footsteps of the nine-nation coalition at a very small cost.
"Open the door! Open the door! Let them in!"
After learning that the second line of defense had been broken, Bingyuan had been standing on the wall and waiting for the arrival of Sanali and others. I don't know how many hours later, a light finally appeared in front of him. After a while, the outpost soldiers had also confirmed that they were his own people, so Bingyuan quickly ordered the soldiers to open the door and let the evacuated troops in.
A total of 5,000 troops arrived at Bingyuan standing at the head of the city in the Third Defense Town one after another. They carefully observed the returned soldiers and found that the casualties were not very large. The whole team was only a part less than what the ice source saw a few days ago, but there were a little more injured people. In an instant, the whole town Busy, the evacuated soldiers immediately fell asleep after arriving at their standby area, and the soldiers who were originally in the third line of defense quickly began to help the wounded deal with the wounded.
"Zhong, are you all right?"
After confirming that the team had returned, Bingyuan ordered the door to be closed, and then quickly went down from the evacuation team at the head of the city and found the girl with a smaller body that he had been worried about.
Sanely.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."
Sanali, who ate a candy and tried not to fall asleep, looked at Bingyuan and said.
"Go and get some sleep. Now let me manage it."
And Monroe came out from the side behind her and looked at Sanali, who almost fell to the ground and fell asleep.
"It's better to obey than to obey."
Then Sanari fell down as if she had lost her life. She was so scared that Bingyuan immediately rushed up and hugged her soft body so that she didn't let the lovely girl in front of her fall to the ground.
"Lord Monroe, what's going on? Today is only the fourth day, isn't it?
After quickly hugging Sanari, Bingyuan asked Monroe softly.
"I think it's better for you to send Sanali to rest first. She hasn't closed her eyes for three days. Come to the command center of the town to find me later."
Monroe sighed and turned around and left. Bingyuan also knew that the most important thing for him now was to have a good rest. Anyway, Monroe had come back, so she didn't have to be responsible for the things in the town for the time being, so Bingyuan immediately took Sanali to a more comfortable room. In the suitable room, after helping Sanari take off her coat and put it aside, she slowly covered her with a quilt.
Of course, before that, Bingyuan also took out the unfinished candy in his mouth... Of course, the situation was very bad at that time.
After dealing with Sanali's affairs, Bingyuan came to the headquarters of the town, but suddenly found that Nanalis, who had been not motivated, also appeared here to talk about something secretly with Monroe, which made Bingyuan feel a little strange.
Is it... that they want to use the power of the nine-nation coalition to overthrow the rule of the Duchy of Nomas in the Effilis District and re-establish the Duchy of Effilis?
In an instant, a bad idea came to Bingyuan's heart, but when Monroe saw Bingyuan coming to the headquarters, she immediately ended the secret conversation with Nanalis and waved to Bingyuan, signaling him to go there. It seemed that something she didn't want to make public to other soldiers.
"My lord, what's going on?"
Bingyuan was a little puzzled and asked with a trace of doubt.
"We estimate that the strength of the enemy is too low. After contact, we found that those were elite soldiers at the level of an independent 100-person team. The first line of defense I was responsible for collapsed on the first day, and the town defense with the help of the second line of defense was barely delayed for three days. Although the casualties were not very large, it can be said that this It's very tricky."
Monroe whispered that she didn't want the soldiers to know that she was facing not only the elite troops of nine countries, but also the elite among the elites.
"Moreover, Monroe and Sanali have also fought with the enemy's Zhanji and War Emperor. They are the Zhanji and War Emperor of Fosnoia. Although they don't know who the Zhanji and War Emperor are for the time being, the attack means are a strong attack type, which is not very beneficial to us."
Then Nanalis also frowned and said.
At this time, Bingyuan understood why the two people were talking quietly just now. The enemy is a strong enemy. This kind of thing can't be spread casually. After all, everyone already knows that the nine-nation coalition they are facing is the elite of nine countries. They are psychologically prepared and ready, but the enemy is the elite of the elite. If it is spread, I don't know what the consequences will be. It may be a positive impact or a negative impact. In a word, the two do not intend to publish all the truth until the impact is determined.
"Now the enemy is estimated to be equipped, and it will attack the third line of defense at noon tomorrow. If it is based on the current defense alone, it may not take long. Sanali needs time to rest and hasn't slept for three days. I'm also a little tired now. It's a little difficult for the army to prepare quickly. Damn, the current situation is much worse than expected!"
Monroe couldn't help saying angrily.
"Colonet, did she fight for three days?"
Bingyuan was stunned for a moment and said.
"One day when she came to pick me up, she commanded the battle on the wall for the next two days, and even fought with the warriors of the nine-nation coalition. I could hear their fight all afternoon. Can you believe it?"
Monroe couldn't help sighing.
So that's it. This can also explain why Sanali is so sleepy.
"Zhong, Lieutenant Colonel, take a break. I'll take care of the matter now. It's time to work after so many days of rest."
Bing Yuan looked at Monroe with a hint of fatigue and said.
"Ha ha, say that I'm a gentle person, aren't you?"
And Bingyuan didn't expect that Monroe did not answer directly but circled around. In an instant, the people around her couldn't help but be stunned except for Monroe and Bingyuan.
What does this mean?
"All right, all right! Lieutenant Colonel, go to bed quickly. Now leave the handling of the soldiers to us, and their health is almost recovered.
Bingyuan, who said to Monroe with a hint of command, turned around and was ready to leave the headquarters to go out to see the situation, while Monroe replied before Bingyuan left: "Okay, I'm going to take a break for a while. From now until tomorrow morning, please."
"No problem."
After smiling, Bingyuan left the headquarters and began to take charge of the situation in the town
