Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 524 Roma and Dwight

Giorgia led the soldiers and ran westward. He knew that Shelty's army was nearby, but he did not expect that he had entered the ambush range.

The Roman army was on the hillside beside the road, but they never took action against them.

The second general, Degara, had an ugly expression on his face. He asked Roma why he didn't take action. While Roma was struggling to explain in sign language, Degara had already begun to curse.

Under Shertai's rule, one army and two generals were the rules that all armies must abide by. Digara was originally a civil servant and did not know much about military affairs, but Shertai could not find other generals, so he made him the second general.

Just because he doesn't understand military matters doesn't mean he won't express opinions. The more people don't understand, the more opinions they have.

He scolded Rome for being lazy, cowardly, and deliberately delaying the opportunity to fight. He scolded Viscount Cyrus for being stupid and incompetent for letting an ignorant mute woman command the battle. He said that he would report all this to the Grand Duke and ask the Grand Duke to severely punish Na. Charles and his men.

The last sentence frightened Viscount Salles. He had fought in wars and although he had no military talent, he still had basic common sense.

He knew that Roma was doing the right thing. After investigation by the sentry, there were two armies of God's Punishment, each with a number of more than 2,000. There are only seven or eight hundred troops passing through here, and they are most likely the enemy's vanguard. If If the ambush troops attack at this time, not only will they not be able to kill too many enemies, but they will also expose themselves in advance and become the prey of the enemy's main force.

Letting the vanguard go is the basic common sense of ambush, but I didn't expect that the second general didn't even understand this.

If you don't understand, you don't understand. Roma doesn't bother to explain. Even if he complains to Shelty, Shelty will understand the reason.

But Cyrus was frightened and kept urging Roma to take action. He kicked Roma and punched Roma. He gave Roma the order to attack, but the soldiers did not listen to him. if.

The soldiers knew that Roma could not speak, so they only listened to the sound of the trumpet. The second general Digara actually went up to snatch the trumpeter's horn, which completely angered Roma.

Roma stepped forward and grabbed Digara's hair and pulled him aside. Digara cursed loudly. Roma stepped forward and kicked him in the mouth to silence him.

In this way, Giorgia walked out of the ambush range. He would walk along the mountain road to Mount Bergemia, where Manu was already ready to respond.

Seeing the enemy troops retreating, Dejiala was filled with hatred and annoyance, but did not dare to make a sound. He covered his mouth, sobbing and cursing in a low voice with tears in his eyes.

This frightened Cyrus, who comforted Decara and scolded Rome at the same time.

But after a few curses, Cyrus became quiet because another army came from a distance.

This is the army they are waiting for.

Dwight's Lone Shadow Army has nearly three thousand men, and they are all excellent cavalry. Roma stared at the position of the cavalry with wide eyes. When two-thirds of the enemy's army entered the ambush circle, Roma ordered The horn of attack was sounded.

Hearing the sound of the horn, Dwight's mind was buzzing. There was only one path here, with a cliff on one side and a hillside on the other. It was the most suitable place for an ambush.

Looking at the enemy's attack position, Dwight became even more nervous. A large number of feather arrows and rolling stones fell from the hillside, starting from the middle and back, and gradually covering the entire army formation. The rear troops could not retreat, and the front troops could not return to support. This was aimed at The most effective form of ambush for cavalry.

At the critical moment of life and death, Dwight's experience and the qualities of the Lone Shadow Legion were revealed.

First of all, Dwight has two choices in front of him, one is to fight, the other is to escape.

If they choose to fight, they will be completely wiped out in this terrain. The only advantage is that they die very heroically.

If you choose to escape, you also need to choose a direction.

One direction is to rush forward directly. The fastest way to escape is to rush forward directly, but if the front is the enemy's territory, you are likely to get into the enemy's encirclement.

The other direction is to return the same way. To return the same way, you need to turn around. For the cavalry, turning around is not that easy.

The decision must be made within a few seconds. Once the formation is completely destroyed by the rolling stones, the entire army will be unable to effectively execute any orders.

Dwight made a decision as quickly as possible. He ordered all the soldiers to turn their horses around, get under the horses, use the horses as cover, and retreat immediately.

This is a very complicated order. An ordinary army would probably not be able to understand it under such circumstances.

But Guying Legion could understand and showed super strong execution ability. They turned the horse's head, turned over and dismounted, got under the belly of the war horse, and followed the horse to retreat. The entire tactic was completed neatly and quickly.

Roma was shocked when she saw this. The capabilities of this army exceeded her imagination. After many years of fighting, she had never seen such outstanding generals and soldiers.

She gave up the idea of ​​charging and continued shooting arrows and rolling stones on the hillside. Her request to the soldiers was not to leave an arrow or a pebble behind.

In the end, Dwight lost nearly a thousand men, and the remaining two thousand successfully retreated.

There were zero casualties on Rome's side, and they took away almost a thousand enemies with only bows, arrows and stones. This was a great victory to be proud of.

But the second general Dijiala thought that now was not the time to celebrate: "The enemy is right under our noses, and you just let them run away. If you don't pursue us now, how long will it take?"

Roma didn't want to talk to him, but just stared at his mouth. Digara licked his injured lips. He was a little afraid of Roma, and quickly complained to Cyrus: "Why don't you pursue the enemy?"

Cyrus glared at Roma: "Didn't you hear the general's order?"

Roma gestured in sign language: We should deal with the enemy's vanguard now, this is common sense.

Cyrus knew what to do now, but he didn't know if he could explain it to Decara:

"Do you remember the enemy army that just passed by? It's time for us to deal with them now..."

Dijiala said angrily: "What to do with them? There are only a few hundred of them! They are just bait for the enemy! They are already in our possession. What we have to do now is to capture the two thousand enemies who escaped." Come back and chop off their heads!”

Roma really wanted to blow this idiot's head off with a punch. She gestured to her father in sign language: We only have infantry, how can we catch up with the cavalry?

Cyrus also had this concern, and the second general's reply was: "With our loyalty and love for the Grand Duke, we can catch up with all enemies!"

Roma had heard this before, even in the City of Wonderful Sound. It seemed that the officials in the southeast had always been familiar with such disgusting words.

Roma still wanted to argue, but was slapped by her father.

"We all obey the general. Without the wise command of the second general, would we have won this victory?"

Roma remained silent and ordered the entire army to pursue the enemy.

The next scene was funny. Dejala ran less than a mile and started to vomit on her knees. Cyrus quickly brought him a group of horses. This horse was left behind by Dwight. The horse was very strong. Although he was very strong, Degara's riding skills were poor and he was thrown off as soon as he got on the horse.

Decara cried in pain, scolded Cyrus, and then asked to ride in the carriage.

There was no ready-made carriage for him to sit in, so a few deft soldiers finally made a temporary sedan and carried him forward.

After chasing for more than ten miles, Roma checked the hoof marks on the ground and told his father that the enemy had fled far away.

Cyrus conveyed the news to Decara, who scolded Cyrus, dissatisfied that his pursuit was unfavorable, and then proposed to capture Xiangteng County.

Roma could not tolerate Digara's continued mischief. As long as he had a general understanding of the situation, he could tell that occupying Xiangteng County was a very stupid act. This stupid act could even bring disaster.

But Digara insisted on capturing Xiangteng County. He did not dare to get angry at Rome and kept shouting at Cyrus. Rome ignored him and gave the order to retreat. Cyrus was worried about angering the second general. He raised his whip at Roma.

"The greatest misfortune I have encountered in my life is giving birth to you!"

Snapped! A whip fell, leaving a bloody mark on Roma's face.

Roma stood there, looking at her father, blood beads sliding down her cheeks.

Cyrus has said similar words countless times, but never in front of so many people.

"What are you still watching me do!" Cyrus whipped him again, "Do you really want to kill me? Didn't you hear the second general's order? Bring your soldiers and occupy Xiangteng County immediately!"

Brayton and Xemora arrived at the place where Roma had set up an ambush. Nearly a thousand corpses of the Lone Shadow Legion were still left here.

Xemola knelt on the ground, prayed to Typhon and Hades respectively, and then activated his fourth-level skill.

The fire of Hades spreads among the corpses. Unlike the blazing flame used by Stanley, the flame used by Mora is cold.

He is invading these corpses with the breath of the underworld.

Brayton looked at the surrounding situation alertly, worried that Roma might come back at any time.

"how much longer?"

Xu Mola stood up and said, "It's ready."

Brayton opened the abyss, took all the corpses in, turned to Xu Moura and said: "It should be able to be used tomorrow night, right?"

Xiumora nodded and said: "It should be usable. It doesn't matter if it can't be used. We have enough inventory, but have you thought about it, are we really going to kill her? That's Manda's woman! You know Manda has How cruel!"

Brayton licked his lips and said, "Manda said, you have to let her know the pain first, then she will know what is good."
