Lord of Lowland

Chapter 455 The Deployment of the Duke of Satoras

The Duke of Satoras nervously commanded the battle on the front line. After putting in the last elite troops, he managed to stabilize the situation on the front line. The 10 cavalry regiments he commanded were finally on par with the opponent's undead army. Although the display was not as long as expected, the most basic layout was completed anyway, and it was not much different from what Archibald explained. The battle situation in front of us has basically stabilized. Xin is no longer here, he is always concerned about the situation on the opposite side, and Archibald's movements are the focus of his most attention.He knew that the troublesome situation in front of him was mainly because of Earl Cecil and the necromancer. As long as they were killed, Satolas believed that the current situation would naturally ease.

When the Duke of Satolas was anxious, he suddenly saw a black robed man appearing in front of him. His Excellency the Duke recognized the man in front of him at a glance. This is the uncle of the current Emperor Roland of the Eluk Empire. , Lord Archibald.I saw that this lord no longer had the calmness and calmness to leave here. The anger and vicissitudes on his face made Satolas extremely frightened. Looking at the emperor's uncle, who is now a wanted criminal of the empire and a dangerous person who is temporarily cooperating, Satolas Even though Trust was a duke, he felt a shivering for a while.

After Archibald returned here, he didn't say anything, and walked straight back to his big tent. He didn't say anything, and Duke Satolas didn't dare to ask, but walked quietly to Archibald's big tent. Follow his orders before.

"I'm sorry, Satolas, I failed." Archibald only said a few short words, but it didn't sound like a bolt from the blue to the Duke's ears.The Duke Cecil on the opposite side has almost become a heart disease of the Eluk Empire. In order to solve this heart disease, His Majesty the Emperor even cooperated with the blasphemous sect. This kind of cooperation is not without rebound within the empire. The eldest prince Mengshua and Queen Catherine's backlash against this behavior was particularly serious, but Emperor Roland withstood the pressure, treacherously fought this small war with King Rex's tacit understanding, and let the blasphemous sect help kill Cecil.It can be said that he paid a huge price. In order to win the support of the eldest prince Mengshua, he even promised that the newly conquered Soloran Kingdom would be owned by the nobles of the Mengshua family. Now it is absolutely unexpected that the Blasphemy Sect, a team that has almost never lost a hand for thousands of years, will miss this time, which makes Duke Satolas a little panicked.

"Withdraw your troops, the power of the necromancer has come to an end tonight." Archibald's voice has lost the aura of arrogance, and it seems that failure will affect his prestige and morale. A deep blow.

Although Archibald's attitude was good for him, Sartoras did not dare to be disrespectful to him at all. He hurriedly saluted him and retreated his troops according to what he said. As expected, the opponent's necromancer did not drive the undead. After chasing after him, he found that the Duke of Satoras had withdrawn his troops, and ordered the undead to stop the attack.All of a sudden, the din of weapons on the battlefield stopped, and there was silence on the black battlefield.

"This time it's our problem. Tell Roland, I'll say goodbye temporarily. His entrustment to us is still valid. Two of us died this time. We won't just forget it. We will definitely come back again." Said After finishing, Archibald disappeared directly into the big tent.

The Duke of Satolas knew that the emperor's uncle had left here, and naturally there was no affection among the members of the blasphemy sect, but the killing of the elder meant that the authority of the blasphemy sect had been challenged, which the entire blasphemy sect could not endured. 200 years ago, the crown prince of the Eluk Empire once killed the elders of the blasphemy sect, but was hunted down by the blasphemy sect. The future emperor of the empire could only be handed over by his own father. Since then, there has been no No one dared to attack the elders of the blasphemous sect.The blasphemy sect also continued to fight among themselves during this period, and elders continued to die due to power strife within the sect, but no one outsiders dared to speak out against the elders of the blasphemy sect. After that incident, this was the first blasphemy The elder of the sect was killed by an outsider. Satolas knew that this matter was not just a matter of the Eluk Empire. I am afraid that the blasphemy sect itself would not let Cecil go.

At this time, Duke Sartoras' subordinates reported that the people sent to raid the north of the border city were beaten back by Count Cecil's army. Duke Sartoras was not surprised at all. There was no Count Cecil on the frontal battlefield. Of course, all regular soldiers will gather on the battlefield behind to attack their own troops.Therefore, it is not surprising that this army was beaten so badly. The Duke was in an extremely bad mood at this time. The empire launched an all-out attack on the Kingdom of Soroland in three kingdoms. The progress of the other two groups was very smooth. I am afraid that he was the only one who was actually attacked. The necromancer blocked the way of the army, which makes people angry just thinking about it. I am afraid that I will inevitably be laughed at by my colleagues when I meet them in the future.

But whether there will be any face in the future is another matter. The losses now are serious. After all the troops were withdrawn, when they counted the number of people, they found that their 1 troops had lost more than [-] people in total. The casualty ratio in this cold weapon era was enough A well-trained army collapsed, especially the elite troops riding Andean war horses that were finally put in. Since these elite troops were not responsible for breaking down the opponent's defense line, they took the lead and fought against the opponent's strongest bone dragon. At the forefront of the battlefield, it almost suffered the greatest casualties in the intertwined duel between the enemy and ourselves. Even in the entire Ailuk Empire, this was an absolutely powerful force.They were an elite force put together by the direct guards of various dukes and princes. They were supposed to be used in the most important battlefield in the middle. Unexpectedly, Emperor Roland attached great importance to Cecil, so he transferred this force to the eastern front. The result was that Having lost nearly half of his troops, Duke Sartoras could already imagine the anger of the nobles of the empire towards him.Faced with this kind of loss, the Duke did not dare to be careless and hurriedly changed his tactics. In the past, his main activities were mainly offensive. Now the Duke hurriedly adjusted his strategy and issued an order to focus on defense. He placed a high card on Cecil to avoid fighting. The opponent Even the weak troops would never dare to take the initiative to attack. That would be a recipe for death.
