It was already the afternoon of the same day when Crimson Erduo received the news that the main force had disappeared abnormally.

The news was brought back by the convoy that went to transport food. This time, the transport team returned the full amount of food for the first time.

Because in order to speed up the escape, the entire logistics department only brought less than one thousand kilograms of grain to meet the needs of His Majesty Yagrolk, and all other grain was abandoned in the original warehouse.

"What? You said His Majesty and his army of hundreds of thousands have completely disappeared?" Crimson Erduo was shocked, angry and amused when he was woken up by his subordinates. "Our army of hundreds of thousands just disappeared in broad daylight!"

The transportation captain hesitated and said, "Honestly, it's not evaporation... My subordinates suspected that they had evacuated, because in addition to the supplies and food all over the ground, other signs of chaos all indicated that they should be retreating in a certain direction. Already...

"Retreat? Hundreds of thousands of people are retreating without even saying hello?" Crimson Erduo hurriedly put on his armor, stood up and walked out of the tent, saying, "Stop guessing here. Ma sent out scouts to clarify the situation." explain!"

Crimson Erdo's camp is located on a high ground, but it is covered by the village trees in front of the tent, so it is impossible to see the entire battlefield clearly, but a rumbling volume hits the face like a storm,

Thinking of the transport captain's report, Scarlet Erdo's face changed. He could distinguish the ticking of horse hooves, the neighing of horses and the shouts of soldiers. He listened carefully and felt that the sound coming from the right wing was even louder. Loudly, he quickly called the attendants, "You all come with me to see what's going on."

"Yes, sir." The attendants all took the order and left. Hong Erduo took a few steps on his horse and rushed to a higher slope. The attendants behind him quickly chased after him on their horses.

As soon as he jumped onto the slope, the sight in his eyes immediately made Crimson Erduo take a deep breath of cold air.

"What's going on?" Crimson Erdo asked himself with a confused look on his face. He saw that about 10 miles away from his camp, a group of Nord troops numbering about 10,000 people was being attacked by several times the number. The falcon army oppressed them, fighting and retreating, and arduously moved closer to their direction.

"It seems to be Powell's Fifth Flag Regiment." Crimson Erdo's eyebrows couldn't help but frown together. The Fifth Flag Regiment, like himself, was far away from the base camp. It seemed that like himself, he encountered the trouble of the sudden disappearance of the main force of the base camp. But after all, from a distance of ten miles, looking at the entire battlefield from a high place gave one a feeling of being in the mist. Those soldiers who were running, fighting, bleeding, and groaning, looked at from a distance, and only some jumping black spots remained.

Although they were in chaos, the good fighting qualities of the Nord soldiers came into play at this time. Three or five soldiers spontaneously gathered together to form small formations one after another. Hundreds and thousands of small formations formed the team's defense line. And with dozens of teams spread out at once, the battle lines are endlessly twisting like a long snake.

With just one glance, Crimson Erdo immediately noticed the problem inside. The defense was too open and the front line was too thin.

This kind of linear array can easily achieve a breakthrough in a certain area. If there is not even a regiment reserve, the whole army is basically declared to be defeated. Powell of the Fifth Flag Regiment is a battle-experienced general. He should not be unaware of this reason. Then the reason for setting up this array is There was only one left, and the enemy on the opposite side also put up the same array, and the force was smaller than Powell's. That's why Powell, who was forced, had to put up the same array to resist the danger of the enemy encircling him from both wings with the majority of his troops!

There was a rapid sound of horse hooves behind him. Crimson Erdo turned around and saw the scout captain on a war horse galloping towards him.

"General" the scout captain stood in front of Crimson Erdo with an ugly expression on his face. On horseback, he gave a hasty salute to Crimson Erdo and reported, "It's Mr. Powell's Fifth Flag Regiment. Their three directions total about 40,000 Falcon troops. They are struggling to get closer to us! If not If we rescue them immediately, I don’t think they can reach us! "

"40,000 Falcon Army! You must have read it correctly!" Crimson Erdo was frightened by the number in the mouth of the scout captain.

"Yes, 40,000. This is still a conservative estimate, because I found that there are still a large number of cavalry hiding in the nearby woods and did not participate in the attack. They probably did not want to be exposed in advance!"

"Cavalry..." Crimson Erdo's expression changed again. Yes, he had figured out what was going on. The target of this large number of Falcon troops was not Powell's Fifth Flag Regiment, but He, it was just the Fifth Flag Regiment who accidentally appeared and blocked the knife that came from behind for him.

With 40,000 people and a large number of cavalry, a fierce blow from behind is enough to send his legion to hell!

"Where have your Majesty and the main force of the army gone?" Crimson Erduo frowned, and the scout captain who reported the report said with an ugly face, "General, can you reinforce the Fifth Flag Regiment with two flag regiments... I'm afraid they really can't stand it. "

Seeing Crimson Erduo's hesitant expression, he quickly changed his words and said, "A flag regiment! As long as you are willing to send a flag regiment to respond, I believe the fifth flag regiment will break through!"

Crimson Erduo was silent for a while, his sharp eyes like a falcon looked at the distant battlefield again. Saying categorically "I can't send reinforcements!"

"General, once the Fifth Flag Regiment is breached, we will have to face the dilemma of being attacked from two sides! This is not the time to save our strength by sparing our troops!" the scout captain said anxiously.

Crimson Erdo shook his head and said with certainty, "The Fifth Flag Regiment is not in danger of being annihilated yet. If the Falcon Army really did that, they would have been annihilated long ago. You just said that there are a large number of cavalry lurking in the area." In the woods? In other words, they are approaching here through the woods!”

"It should be so." The scout captain was stunned for a moment.

"By the woods, do you mean those areas?" Crimson Erduo pointed to a large green forest a mile away from the cypress trees.

"This should be about the same!" the scout captain said in an uncertain tone.

"If I send reinforcements, do you think there will be something waiting for us there?" Crimson Erduo's words were full of Xiao Sha's atmosphere.

"Sir, what do you mean, the enemy's cavalry will ambush us in the middle?" The scout captain looked relieved and raised his eyes in confusion, because the jungle was so dense that even with his good eyesight, he could only see a piece of it. In the vast greenery, the outline of the forest looms like clouds.

"Look what that is?" Scarlet Erdo raised his finger with a serious face, and looked in the direction of his hand, the scout captain. His body trembled, he rubbed his eyes and shouted, "What is that?"

At the edge of the forest, there are some small spots. The color of these small dots is not consistent with the color of the forest, and they seem to be moving. The scout captain looked carefully and found that yes, they were indeed small moving dots.

"Is that a tree? Or...?"

"They are the cavalry waiting for my reinforcements!" Scarlet Erduo sighed, "Although I don't know what the situation is, one thing is certain, that is, we are completely surrounded. The Fifth Flag Regiment and I are taking one step at a time. Step into the trap of the Falcon Army!"

"General, please send scouts in that direction to conduct reconnaissance. But if it is really as imagined... we must make preparations early." The scout captain turned around and rode on his horse and shouted.

Scarlet Erduo nodded and said, "I will set up defenses here to ensure that my judgment is wrong. Otherwise, it will really be a disaster."

The Falcon Army's attack on the Fifth Flag Regiment came to a standstill around three in the afternoon. The attacking Falcon soldiers retreated like a tide, allowing the remnants of the Fifth Flag Regiment to move closer to the direction of Crimson Erdo.

The scout captain who went to investigate rolled out of his saddle and took off his headband in embarrassment. His face was covered with blood and panic, and he stumbled forward. However, he tripped over a stone on the ground and fell to the ground in embarrassment.

It made the nearby security soldiers burst into laughter. But soon, they couldn't laugh anymore. The scout captain raised his head and screamed with a voice that was so shrill that it didn't sound like a human voice, tearing the air, "Sir! The army! The army of the Falcon Dynasty is coming! I saw Vekia." Falcon's King's Banner"

Crimson Erdo stood up suddenly, and the first bright flash appeared on the horizon with a livid face. The black jumping dots gathered into a line and moved forward densely.

On March 18, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the army led by Fatty himself appeared on the battlefield.

60,000 Falcon Cavalry emerged from the forests and jungles, advancing in a strict battle formation. In front were eleven light cavalry squadrons in formation. They were the essence of the Kugit Rangers, most of them They were composed of the strongest and most experienced veterans among the Kugits. The cavalry advanced on foot in a dense formation, with stern expressions on their faces, and their bodies swayed slightly rhythmically as the horses advanced.

Following the cavalry formation was an infantry regiment of 20,000 people. The dark infantry formation was like a forest with no end as far as the eye could see, and the rear ranks were still pouring out. The black armor seems to be able to swallow up the sun's luster, and countless fluttering military flags are like oceans rolling in the wind and waves.

The messengers galloped between the various formations, their red cloaks flying thinly behind them, like the tail of meteors flying across the sky, and loud orders resounded throughout each formation.

"Stand firm and stay in line!"

"Keep the speed!"

"Front team...slow down...!"

"Huh!" A huge falcon battle flag trimmed with gold threads appeared from the middle of the queue. Crimson Erduo took a deep breath, the legendary falcon battle flag!

"It's the battle flag of the Vekia Falcon!" The arrival of this special military flag brought the greatest shock to the entire battlefield, no less than an eight-magnitude earthquake. The Nord soldiers clenched their weapons with excitement. Beads of sweat broke out, looking at the troops pouring out of the horizon, looking at the mountain-like array of shining swords, guns, and swords, and the falcon battle flag flying in the air, a heavy and extremely terrifying premonition overwhelmed the Nord soldiers. Out of breath.

For a full ten minutes, Scarlet Erduo couldn't say a word, and the generals summoned next to him also kept their mouths shut.

The command tent was enveloped in an oppressive, heavy silence.

"Your Majesty, is it over? Where are our hundreds of thousands of troops?"

This is what everyone has said unspoken in their hearts,

If this were not the case, how could the main force led by Vecia Falcon appear at this moment in the direction that should be our base camp?
