I Will Be The Crowned King Chapter 441

Latest website: The earth-shattering sound of shelling ravaged the Straw Town, which was already full of ruins and corpses. Under the firelight and billowing black smoke, the faces of the Mujahideen soldiers were filled with panic.

Two hours ago, they had been showing off their might and their morale was high, and now they are fleeing from the "occupied" town in a frenzy. Hundreds of injuries and broken comrades in arms have all been sworn to sacrifice their lives for the Ring of Order. The holy warriors left behind and scrambled to flee towards the east gate.

Behind them, the artillery of the New World Corps, still under the command of Carl Bain, continued to bombard the streets of Strawtown, which was already full of corpses; countless soldiers pushed and shoved, crowded in absolute and spacious Under the gate of any relationship, they crowded forward desperately.

No matter how the officers shouted or even killed the deserters on the spot, it was impossible to maintain order. On the contrary, even the supervising team responsible for shooting turned around and ran away; all the knights of the Levant family could only watch their troops piled up behind the door. , become a living target for the enemy's artillery, or forcibly block it and then be knocked over by the deserters, and then set foot on 10,000 feet.

Although so embarrassed, but Bo Lei Went still did not lose the confidence of victory.

The current battle situation seems to be that he fell into Anson Bach's trap, but in fact it is just his last dying struggle before abandoning the city and running away by using his eagerness to seize the colony.

500, 1,000... Up to 2,000 people, and at the cost of 2,000 casualties, they captured Slave Port and Straw Town, and together they took all the five colonies in the east into their pockets and approached the town of Grey Snow, which is near the east gate of Ice Dragon Fjord. ; It seems that the loss is not small, but it is actually different from the capture of the sailing city by the Clovis army, and the victory of Arthur Herreid in the Blue Pigeon Castle.

"So this is definitely not a failure, but a sacrifice that has to be made in order to win!"

Holding aloft the Ring of Order flag handed by the messenger, Bolley Levant encouraged the officers: "It is because of their sacrifice that they have achieved this victory - from Straw Town to capturing slaves. Port, and Black Reef Port, the entire territory of the six colonies has been taken over by the Levent family!"

"Since the war began, no jihadist legion has won a more brilliant victory than ours, and no jihadist legion has contributed more to the Ring of Order than the 22,000 warriors who fought **** battles on this battlefield! We use our feet on the ground. Achievements, practiced the adherence to the faith!"

"And this is just the beginning, and the glory that belongs to us is far from over!"

Under the gaze of countless pairs of frightened eyes, the calm and confident Bo Lei flag waved, pointing to the firelight behind him: "Take down the town of straw, and let the Clovis heretics who killed our comrades know that this despicable and shameless behavior is a shameless act. There is a price to be paid!"

"Oh oh oh oh……!!!!"

Inspirational shouts sounded in the siege position, although it could be seen that many knights and soldiers were just pretending to be inspired to cater to themselves, but it still made Borrey Lewent relieved.

After all, they are willing to obey their own orders, which means that the army has not been completely out of control, and the battle situation still has room for recovery; relying on the fresh force of 10,000 people and the main force withdrawn from the town, they can still crush Ansen Bach's army head-on. Storm Legion.

But at this moment...

"boom--!!!!"

In the direction of the northeast side of the siege position, there was an incomparably rapid gunshot.

The officers who were pretending to be inspired just now showed their panic and turned their heads to look at the location where the gunshots came from. The confident Bolly Lewent's expression immediately became petrified.

Accompanied by the smoke of gunpowder and the faint screams of killing, hundreds of figures seemed to fall from the sky and suddenly appeared on the right flank of the Bolei Legion.

After a full three minutes, Boley Levent got accurate information from the messenger: about a thousand Clovis people appeared on the northeast side of the battlefield and were rapidly approaching the siege position.

What, why didn't I find out until now? Because this group of people was not in Straw Town at all before the war, and only appeared suddenly after the war; and the cavalry of the legion was taken by Borre Lewent to break through the city defense, of course, they could not immediately notice the abnormality around the battlefield.

But it was too late... Leo, the commander of the Fourth Infantry, who was carrying a shotgun and was covered in grenades, took the lead.

Facing the enemy who suddenly appeared from behind, the jihadist line infantry who had no time to retreat had to organize defenses on the spot and blocked several gaps in the trenches.

Thick white gunpowder smoke swelled up on the ground, and two rounds of platoons swept across Leo's head. The two skirmishers who followed him fell to the ground, one had his head exploded, and the other was killed on the spot. , the pain was so painful that he died on the ground.

"Quickly marching to build fortifications, and being able to take the initiative to counterattack immediately when being attacked from the back, it really is the elite of the southern part of the empire, even... stop screaming, bear it!"

Leo, who was unscathed, was lying on the ground while bandaging the wounds of the screaming soldiers, while taking time to praise the enemy and complain about his own people. He didn't notice the resentment on the face of the skirmishers-he hid behind Leo. , still can't avoid the fate of being sucked out of luck by the head of the regiment.

Putting down the skirmishers who had stopped shouting, Leo, who was lying on his back, made a gesture behind him, and the skirmishers who understood it immediately dispersed and slowly crawled towards the rear of the siege position.

The choking gunpowder smoke obscured the sight of the defenders, and they continued to shoot in the direction of the Storm Legion's attack in an orderly manner, without noticing that the enemy had approached within a distance of less than 20 meters.

The next second, the soldiers of the Mujahideen Army, who were still mechanically repeating their shooting movements, saw several shadows breaking through the smoke, burning sparks and falling into the fortifications.

"boom--!!!!"

The fire ignited, and 1,200 people of the 4th Infantry Regiment broke into the siege position of the Bolei Legion in the chaos; after easily annihilating less than half of the defenders on the position, they successfully controlled the surrounding fortifications and continued to threaten the flank of the Mujahideen Army. .

The Bolei Legion, who noticed that the position was captured, immediately organized a counterattack. The group headed even wanted to copy the tactics of the Storm Legion's sneak attack, and let one of its own battalions attack from the side, attacking this group of impolite heretics.

But perhaps because he was worried that the enemy would have follow-up reinforcements, the knight did not let the troops pass through the back of the defense line, but walked directly to the front. Passing through the front of the siege position, it turned into a moving target for the skirmishers to practice shooting.

In less than 15 minutes, the jihadist infantry regiment that had dropped hundreds of corpses was forced to retreat. Leo, who was not injured in the slightest, put a bayonet on his shotgun, a rifle in one hand and a revolver in one hand, and swept up to the sky. Six shots:

"Soldiers, go ahead - the first in Straw Town is our Fourth Infantry Regiment!"

"Come on—!!!!"

Excited and bloodthirsty cheers resounded through the sky, and the assembled Fourth Infantry Regiment divided into three columns to charge along the trenches of the besieged position.

At the same time, Borey Levant, who finally got the accurate information, did not pay attention to the northeast side of the position at all. Instead, he narrowed his slightly trembling eyes and tried to look at the 13-star ring flag that suddenly appeared behind him.

Dressed in a dusty gray old military uniform, wielding simple firearms like a long-handled axe, more than 2,000 shooting soldiers stood up in a messy formation, like an ant colony, and suddenly rushed out with a roar that only they could understand. Pounce on the artillery positions of the Mujahideen.

"It... Where did they come from?!" The messenger's eyes widened and he said in disbelief, "This, this is impossible, we have already defeated all the indigenous troops along the way, how could there be any so much?!"

"Simply because these are the guys we beat before."

Boley Levent's face was ashen, and the corners of his raised mouth showed a hideous expression: "They were not really defeated, but quietly assembled behind us under the guise of defeat - this is the trap set by Anson Bach! "

Looking at the dazed expressions of the people around him, Bo Lei's disdain for explanation became more and more fierce, and his pupils began to tremble uncontrollably... He didn't mind his momentary defeat, but what really scared him was that he couldn't understand it at all.

Instead of gathering the most elite main force in his own hands, he let them all disperse and act independently, so that they can appear on the predetermined battlefield at the predetermined time in such a tacit understanding; Anson Bach, how did he do it? !

Even if he can solve the problem of loyalty and quality of his subordinates, how can he avoid all kinds of accidents and accidents on the way, and be 100% sure that all troops can arrive at the specified place at the specified time?

If he could even do that...Bore Levant shuddered suddenly.

He looked at the town of straw that was still burning behind him, some uncontrollable anger, or fear began to spread in his chest, he turned his head suddenly and shouted at the messenger:

"Cavalry...Is there no news about the two thousand cavalry that rushed into Straw Town?!"

"Not yet!"

The shocked messenger shrank his neck, not knowing why the legion commander (cousin) was suddenly so arrogant: "The officers on the front line are here to report that it will take at least a quarter of an hour for the troops in the city to gather enough combat power, and …”

"And what?!"

"And, and when the cavalry troops entered the city, they basically dismounted and walked on foot. Many people's mounts were frightened by the previous shelling and explosion, and they escaped and suffered a lot of casualties. In addition, the casualties of the cavalry troops ... can be put into use immediately. I'm afraid the cavalry units for battle are not enough..."

"insufficient?!"

"Not enough...foot...not enough for a regiment!"

With his cheeks twitching violently, Bolly Levant resisted the urge to draw a gun to kill, and sneered in order to maintain a confident image:

"It doesn't matter, a regiment of cavalry is more than enough to clean up those indigenous people with long horns; order the infantry regiment closest to the artillery position to immediately abandon their positions and attack to buy time for cavalry support."

"As ordered!"

The messenger who was frightened to death by the sneer of the legionnaire turned his head and ran wildly, as if he would be swallowed alive if he stayed just one more second.

At this time, the 3rd Infantry Regiment, which had already evacuated from the West City Gate, suddenly stopped. More than 1,000 people merged with the remaining fresh forces, and after reorganizing into a column of nearly 1,500 people, they began to advance south, blocking the attack. The Mujahideen army was trapped in the town of straw and tried to retreat.

Julien, who also joined the reserve team, did not rush into the battle, and quietly stationed in the fortification outside the city gate on the west side, as if waiting for something.

But Boray Levent has no time to judge... The main army and artillery positions are in emergency at the same time, and the right flank of the siege position is still under unknown size, but has already defeated the enemy threat of an infantry regiment of his own, obviously more troops and stronger firepower The one who was surrounded by himself became the one who was surrounded, and any mistakes could lead to a sharp turn in the battle, putting him at risk of being defeated!

He must make an immediate decision now, whether to continue to rescue the main force in dire need of relief, or to ensure that the position is not threatened?

The former is under the threat of fire coverage and a main enemy elite infantry regiment at the same time, the latter has been broken through, and the artillery position may fall at any time.

But this hesitation didn't last long, because only ten minutes later he got the information that his artillery position had fallen - just not by the enemy.

"Indigenous troops defeated an infantry battalion close to the position. The artillerymen hiding inside thought that the position was about to fall, and the artillery was too heavy to be dragged immediately, so they directly nailed the breech block. As a result, the surrounding artillerymen mistook him for him. It was ordered to destroy the artillery directly and rush to fight the enemy hand-to-hand... Now there are only six three-pounder guns left in the entire army."

Looking at the messenger who was about to cry without tears~www.mtlnovel.com~Bore Levent just didn't know what to do.

After a brief silence, he still forced himself to speak calmly: "Immediately inform the entire army to abandon their positions, launch a general attack on Straw Town, and rescue the main force of the army that is still trapped!"

"Tell a cavalry regiment that has already assembled to bypass the town of Straw from the north and attack the infidel's western artillery; don't really break the position, just distract the enemy's attention a little."

"Also! Tell that brave and fearless young artilleryman, he has been promoted, and from now on he is my direct guard, let him immediately lead all the soldiers around him that can be assembled to stop the indigenous people, and must not be in the main force. Our position was captured by the enemy before we escaped."

After gritted his teeth and issued this series of orders, Boley Levent tried his best to squeeze a smile: "When this battle is over, I will personally award him a medal, and as the first-class hero of this battle, I ask Your Majesty to confer him. For the knights!"

"Uh..." The stiff-faced messenger twitched his throat:

"Follow your orders!"
