The system gave the wrong traveler

Chapter 301 - Ambush
In the early morning, General Fred Cullen of the elves led a large army to search for the relics of ancient golems in Tartarus, the principality of the Kingdom of Miracesa. Damaged golems are used to replenish troops and use these golems as siege weapons for attacking cities.

But these days, they only found about 1000 golems.

It's a pity that they don't know how to activate these golems. After all, the knowledge about golems is only known by the elven royal family and priests. It is impossible for them, elves in the military, to know this knowledge.

So these golems became things that dragged their feet, slowing down the marching speed of their army as a whole, and putting the whole army in a state of high tension. They were always worried that Tartaros' army would suddenly jump out. Surprise them.

In such a state of high tension and always on the verge of a tsunami, they finally found another ancient ruin unharmed.According to the spies' report, the relic found again was a large relic, and there should be at least a few thousand golems inside.

Hearing this news, the first thing that Fred thought of was to immediately rush over to remove the golem, go directly back to the large army, hand over the golem to the priest and sacrifice them, and then hand over this damn task to other The elves do it.Anyway, he didn't want to do this damn task anymore.

"Boys, we found a large ruin. Now we only need to empty the golems inside, and then we can go directly back to the big army!" Knowing that his soldiers were too nervous, Fu After hearing the news that the spies had found a large ruin, De did not hesitate to yell at his soldiers.

In an instant, after knowing the good news, the elf soldiers who were very nervous at first breathed a sigh of relief.Because they had found the ruins and were able to return to the large army soon, they no longer had to worry about Tartarus' army attack, so they relaxed and let down their guard.

Little did they know that there was a huge surprise right in front of them!

Watching the elven army begin to march towards the ruins, the spies who brought the news to Ford hid secretly in the woods, looked at the elves from a distance, and showed a smile that stretched all the way to the ears, saying: " The general of the elves is not very good either! Such a little lie can fool him around. However, since you are looking for the golem, then go and have fun with the golem!"

After speaking, the spy turned into a shadow, merged into other shadows, and disappeared.
-
According to the news brought back by the spies, Ford and other [-] elf troops walked in the forest for more than half an hour before finally seeing the ruins from a distance, which were taller than the surrounding trees, like towers same building.

As soon as he saw what seemed to be a tall tower, but was a solid building, Verd knew he was in the right place.

The tower-like construction is a lightning-guiding device built by the ancient elves to charge the golem. It can absorb the energy of lightning and guide it to a space directly below it, so that a special device inside can inject the energy of lightning into every Inside a golem, filling them with energy.

Although it was a method thousands of years ago, you can still see something similar to it in some temples or golem making workshops in the Aifa Empire, but it is no longer used.

Ford, who had seen similar things many times in the temple of his hometown, knew that his 4 people had already found thousands of golems, so he no longer needed to worry about the sudden attack of Tartarus' army because of this unlucky mission. popped out.

"Everyone, speed up, we need to reach the mission target as soon as possible!" Seeing the remains of a long way in the distance, Frede turned his head and shouted at his soldiers.

Immediately, the soldiers under his command quickened their pace and started trotting towards the ruins.

But just when Fude and the soldiers under his command thought that the mission could be completed safely, a rain of arrows suddenly shot out from the numbers of the two factions, which caught Fude by surprise!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

As the rain of arrows fell, rows of elf soldiers fell, and the other soldiers fell into chaos in an instant, and less than half of the soldiers were left there to fight back with bows and arrows.

At this time, Fude, who had already reacted, immediately yelled: "All counterattacks! Counterattack!"

Hearing the commander's commander, the helpless soldiers gradually started to fight back.

But for some reason, the army that attacked them suddenly withdrew, as if there were not enough numbers to face their army of [-] elves.

At this moment, Fude has been dazzled by anger, and he no longer cares about whether the other party is luring the enemy to go deep or not.He led the soldiers under his command who were as angry as him, and began to pursue the retreating enemy troops, and soon they were about to catch up with them.

However, suddenly another wave of arrows fell from the sky and landed on the heads of the soldiers under Ford's command, and a large number of soldiers fell down in an instant.

Seeing this, Fude became even more angry, and told the rest of the soldiers to speed up and continue to chase the few Tartarus soldiers who he never tires of.

In the constant pursuit, Ford and his soldiers entered a circle of wooden walls without knowing it.

At this moment, Fude's adjutant felt that something was wrong, he couldn't help but catch up with Fude, and said to him: "General, let's retreat! This might be a trap set by the people of Tartarus Principality, we can't Foolishly fooled!"

Hearing this, Fred reacted and stopped the troops.

He looked around and found that some of the trees here had been cut down on purpose, and some roads had been specially opened for them or others. No matter how they looked, they were traps or ambushes.

So he immediately ordered to retreat, so as not to go deeper and step on a trap, and be severely injured by Tartarus' army.

But just as he ordered to retreat, the soldiers of Tartarus hid in the woods again and shot a large number of arrows at them!

There was no way, Foder could only forcibly order the soldiers to retreat with their shields on their backs, braving the rain of arrows.Although this will cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers, it is better than dying here.

Holding the shield, against the arrows that kept falling, and listening to the screams of the soldiers who were shot by the arrows from time to time, Ford and the others finally pushed out of the wooden wall and were able to rely on the wooden wall to resist the tower. Arrows of the Artaros army.

"Damn Miracesa people, it's best not to let me find a chance in the future, or I will kill you all!!" Hiding behind the wooden wall, Fude looked at the distance wearing Tarta from the gap in the wooden wall. The army in the standard armor of the Ross Principality's army said viciously.

"General, our soldiers have been suppressed by their arrow rain, and there is no way to fight back!" Seeing that the number of Tartarus's army was getting larger and larger, Verde's adjutant hurriedly said to him: "We are now We must retreat! Their numbers are about the same as ours, and we are now on the disadvantaged side! If we don’t retreat sooner, we will be eaten by them!”

Hearing this, Fude couldn't help being furious, and said viciously to the adjutant: "No! We must not retreat! Once we retreat, they will always be behind our ass, shooting us with bows and arrows! So the loss to us of retreating, Be bigger!"

"But."

Seeing that the adjutant was still hesitating, Ford mistakenly thought that he was being timid, so he suddenly shouted: "There is no but! We soldiers of the Aifa Empire are not cowards! We can fight with the advantage of the wind, and we can also fight with the disadvantage of the headwind!! "

Upon hearing this, the adjutant fell silent.But the soldiers began to bravely fight back the soldiers of the Principality of Tartarus with bows and arrows, and the magicians in the team also began to use magic to attack the enemy.

Seeing those soldiers desperately fighting back, the adjutant gritted his teeth and said, "I see, General! I won't let you retreat again!"

Only then did Ford nodded, took out his longbow, and while shooting Tartarus' army, he said: "This is the soldier of our Aifa Empire! Remember, we are not cowards!"

Before the adjutant could answer, there were bursts of sudden roars that directly slapped Ford loudly!

That was the sound made when the cavalry regiment galloped and the horseshoes fell heavily on the ground.And judging from the size of the roar, this cavalry regiment has at least 1 people!Moreover, they are all heavy cavalry!
"Damn Miracesa people!!" Hearing the extremely loud roar, Fude couldn't help shouting, because he had already heard that the cavalry regiment came from their right side!

There is a place outside the wooden wall. It is obvious that these heavy cavalry have been waiting for Ford and the others for a long time. As soon as they retreated from the wooden wall, they began to charge to this side, displacing their formation, military spirit, And the will to resist is all crushed!
Because they are just a troop looking for golems, not the main battle army of the elves on the Tartarus front, so there are no cavalry among them elves.Similarly, there is no way for the opponent's heavy cavalry to charge the special spears, which can allow them to form a square formation to resist the cavalry's charge.

So the moment the roar sounded, many timid elf soldiers began to flee.

However, as soon as they ran less than 100 meters away, they fell into a huge pit, landed on the spikes at the bottom of the pit, and were impaled to death.Only a small number of elven soldiers escaped because they were slow and did not run into the pit.

Looking at the criss-cross pit surrounded by dozens of big trees, Fred was very angry.Because he felt that he was cheated, especially when he couldn't find the spy who brought back the address of the ruins before!

Infantry is absolutely unable to outrun cavalry, this point is very clear to Verde.Even if the troops that the opponent is about to arrive are heavy cavalry, this will not make the slightest difference.

And when the way of retreat was blocked, there were only two ways left for the elves, such as Ford and others, to surrender and fight to the death.

He would absolutely never agree to let Verde choose to surrender directly without having fought the enemy at close range.

He is a general, even if he is looked down upon by other elf generals on the Tartarus front and ridiculed as the head of the logistics department, he is still a general.So it is absolutely impossible for him to do something that surrenders without a fight!
Therefore, the only way left for this elf army is to fight the enemy to the death.

But to be honest, none of the soldiers under Ford's command were very useful soldiers, and the spies were replaced by You You.They were lost in the forest of Tartarus for several days, they couldn't eat enough, they couldn't sleep well, and they had to worry about the enemy's sneak attack. They were already tortured to the point of collapse because of high tension. , and now suddenly let them fight the enemy under such unfavorable circumstances, it is almost a gamble.

But Ford was a complete loser in this gamble.

When the elf soldiers saw that the armor on the heavy cavalry who charged was the armor of Erebus's army, and the black dragon with four horns was depicted on the flag, their so-called will to fight instantly collapsed.

The cavalry of Erepos and the cavalry of Tartarus are completely two concepts.If it is the cavalry of Tartarus who is equal to infantry and cavalry, perhaps the soldiers under Verde's command can still fight, but the cavalry in front of them now is the Erepos cavalry who is best at cavalry in the Kingdom of Mira Caesar. There is no chance of winning at all!

"Damn! Damn! Damn!!!" Seeing that his soldiers either ran around or were strangled by the Erebus cavalry regiment, Fred yelled furiously.

Suddenly, regardless of the obstruction of the adjutant and personal guards, Ford took his long spear and rushed towards the armored female knight who was different from other Erebus knights and knew at a glance that she was the head of the cavalry regiment.

Before the humiliation of defeat comes, I want to take some achievements that I can get.

However, he had just rushed in front of the female knight, and before he had time to stab out the spear in his hand, the female knight cut off the spear in his hand with her saber!
For a moment, Ford froze.

He lowered his head and glanced at the broken spear in his hand, and then saw a cold light passing by, and his chest was pierced by a long sword with cold air.

As the female knight pulled out the long sword from his chest, when Verd fell down, he saw that the blood he spurted out as the long sword was pulled out was tiny red ice crystals, and the temperature of the ice crystals was like The female knight's eyes were equally cold.

'Is this the knight of Erebus?' After a last thought flashed through, Ford, the general who had been thrown out by the horde of elves in search of the golem and lured away some of the main force of Tartarus, finally Ended his life of humiliation.

And after killing this elf who was not suitable to be a general at all to lead an army, the female knight yelled at the other elves on the battlefield: "Your general has been killed by me! Now throw it down obediently!" Surrender your arms, or his end will be your end!"

In an instant, most of the elf soldiers obediently dropped their weapons and surrendered to the troops of Erebus and Tartarus.Only a small number of elves chose to resist tenaciously, but they were quickly annihilated by the combined forces of the two principalities.
