Chapter 189 - The Battle on Volk Plain!!!
Chapter 189: The Battle on Volk Plain!!!
On the Volk Plain, a light cavalry army was advancing rapidly. The distance between their troops was very large, and they seemed to be chasing after something.
“Faster! They must be nearby, we must not let them escape this time!”
The leading general said to the soldiers behind him.
However, the adjutant beside him had a difficult expression on his face.
“General, we’ve been chasing them for three days and three nights. Even if we aren’t tired, the horses are already tired.
“Let’s… return to the city.”
When he said the last sentence, he had already lowered his head, not daring to look at the general anymore.
He was very clear about the general’s temper. Saying such words would definitely anger him.
Sure enough, the general turned to look at the adjutant. His eyes were bloodshot as he gritted his teeth and said,
“These bandits have been robbing our people all this time.
“Shouldn’t we, as soldiers, be responsible for them?!
“If we go back just like this, how are we going to answer everyone?!”
When he said this, he almost ground his teeth to pieces.
The adjutant did not answer immediately.
Of course, he also hated the Bandit Alliance. However, if they continued to chase, their mounts might die of exhaustion.
At that time, those cruel and cunning bandits would definitely think of a way to attack them.
The outcome of this army would definitely be a dead end.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said to the general,
“All I know is that if we continue chasing them like this, the horses will definitely die of exhaustion, and we will have to fight on foot. Those bandits will hide and rest while fighting with us in a circuitous way. We may still have a lot of energy left now.
“When that time comes, all the soldiers will die!
“You need to be responsible for the people. Don’t you need to be responsible for the lives of the soldiers?!”
The general was not willing to be outdone.
“The duty of a soldier is to sacrifice his life for the country and the people!”
He said this not because he was indifferent to the lives of the soldiers.
If it was necessary, he was willing to sacrifice his life.
This time, Collier Village was robbed by the bandit alliance. Not only were they robbed of all their money and resources, they even killed all the innocent villagers in the village.
When they arrived at the scene, there were only corpses and dilapidated houses left in the village.
A harmonious village became a living hell overnight.
This made the general completely lose his mind.
If he did not catch these bandits this time, he definitely would not go back.
The adjutant understood his feelings and also understood that soldiers should not be afraid of death.
However, in the current situation, if they continued to chase after them, their sacrifices would be in vain.
He looked at the general as he was about his exhortation, but in the next second, he lost his stability and suddenly fell forward.
It was not just the adjutant, it was the same for everyone in the army. They all fell forward and flew out.
The general fell to the ground, and for a moment, his mind was in a daze.
When he turned around and saw the horses and the ropes on the ground, he realized that they had been ambushed!
“Hahahaha, they fell for the trap. Brothers, kill!”
Not far away, a bearded bandit on a horse raised the steel knife in his hand and shouted.
All of a sudden, there were sounds of shouting and killing coming from all directions.
Countless bandits suddenly jumped up from the bushes and surrounded them with ferocious smiles.
At this moment, the soldiers stood up one after another and picked up their weapons, ready to face the enemy.
However, they heard the sound of horse hooves coming from afar.
The sound of horse hooves was very light, completely different from the heavy sound of horse hooves of a regular cavalry unit.
The soldiers with rich combat experience could immediately tell.
They were the light cavalry of the Bandit Alliance!
At this moment, all the soldiers had despair written on their faces.
Even the general.
“Am I going to sacrifice myself here for no reason today?”
Listening to the wild laughter of the approaching bandits, the general lowered his head and looked at the adjutant who had fallen to his death.
He gently closed his eyes and could not help but sigh.
“I’m sorry. I should have listened to your suggestion. I’m the cause of everyone’s death…”
At this moment, he was already mentally prepared to die.
However, at the same time, the wild laughter around him suddenly sounded terrified.
The general was slightly stunned and opened his eyes.
What he saw was the chaotic backs of the bandits.
Did they turn around?
Why?
What happened?
Countless questions appeared in the general’s mind, but he subconsciously made a decision.
“It’s time to counterattack! Soldiers, kill!”
This sound was like a warning bell ringing in the hearts of the soldiers.
Many of the soldiers were originally stunned and at a loss, but after hearing this sentence, they immediately came to their senses.
That was right, even though they did not know what had happened, this was their only chance to survive!
Kill!
Immediately, this group of soldiers raised their weapons and charged toward the group of bandits.
At this moment, the back of the bandit group was already in chaos.
“Hurry up, kill him!”
“This way, he’s over here!”
“Go up, there are so many of us, why should we be afraid of him alone?!”
Bandits were bandits after all. At this moment, the sound of commands could be heard everywhere. All the bandits were in a mess. No one knew how to deal with this sudden situation.
And this sudden situation was actually a human who had rushed into the group of bandits on foot.
“Get out of my way! Don’t block my way!”
Mike widened his eyes and waved the Sword of the King in his hand as he fought his way over.
He could tell that these guys were bandits.
From the smell of blood on their bodies, he knew that these guys must have done something bad recently.
Mike naturally had no pity for such people.
Moreover, he was in a hurry to go to Violet Valley and had no time to care about other things.
Without the Umbrella of Meredith, Mike’s defense against magic had greatly reduced.
Now, he had to retrieve the Umbrella of Meredith as soon as possible.
The slower he was, the more his life would be threatened.
As for these bandits…
He would kill anyone who stood in his way!
Countless blades and swords slashed at Mike from all directions.
Mike’s passive skill, Block, played a crucial role at this time.
All the attacks were blocked by Mike, including arrows and bullets!
“Get lost! Get lost!”
The Sword of the King mercilessly slashed at the group of bandits, sending countless broken arms flying and blood splattering everywhere.
“Kill him, quickly kill him!” shouted the bearded bandit angrily as he pointed at Mike.
He was about to complete the heroic feat of surrounding and killing the City of Light’s cavalry team. Why did an annoying figure suddenly appear?
At this time, the bandits behind him also let out waves of screams.
“Behind! The soldiers behind are charging over!”
