Charlemagne believed Conrad and abandoned this perfect map. This decision surprised everyone.
Arrogant, conceited, and paranoid, Charlemagne had many shortcomings, but this did not mean that he was not smart enough.
The old king had a total of twelve sons. Charlemagne became the most powerful contender for the throne, not because he was handsome or because he was lucky, but because he could accept other people's advice at the most critical moment.
Even the most ridiculous and unreasonable suggestions.
He knew that Reggie was very tolerant of aliens, and he also knew that there were a large number of wizards, elves and orcs in Reggie's army. These aliens were likely to use incredible methods to participate in the battle. Charlemagne knew that he should take precautions against this, even if the old bachelor
His suggestions sounded like far-fetched fairy tales, and he didn't want to let a possible hidden danger turn into an irreversible defeat.
Although he liked the map very much, he asked a painter in the army to make a copy of it. Although the painter's work was terrible, he still gave the original map to Conrad.
Conrad wanted someone to send this map to the road to the west to cause Reggie to make a mistake in judgment. If he did as he said, the deceived Reggie might have retreated to Shattered Snow City.
But Alice wanted to show off her magic in front of everyone. She burned the map in front of everyone and announced that she would burn the wizards around Reggie to death.
"Let this evil soul disappear forever! Let the evil lord never use this evil witchcraft again! Let the stupid Reggie Victor feel the majesty of the king!"
She thought she succeeded in burning Abu to death, but unfortunately she was a little unlucky.
Charlemagne chose to attack eastward, but he also had some bad luck. A bad habit brought him a fatal threat.
He didn't keep a waiter around because he didn't think he needed to be served on the battlefield.
But he brought a girl who was good at singing and dancing. After the war was over, he had to have a suitable way to celebrate. If the war came to a stalemate, he had to have someone to pass the time for him.
This is not an excessive request, but no one would have thought that there was a dancer carrying several gold coins. One of the gold coins had a piece of parchment cast inside, and a totem was drawn on the parchment.
This is war, and there is always a bit of luck in the balance of the winner. Of course, this is also inseparable from Dolanor's efforts. He was worried that something would go wrong, and sure enough, it did, and he made preparations for it.
The god of luck also lived up to his efforts.
The old wizard's wisdom and caution, coupled with Calaf's unparalleled skills, brought an unexpected disaster to Charlemagne. The dancer still held the gold coin given to her by Doranor. For an ordinary person,
She had to carry gold coins with her. Sitting in a crowded carriage, she was planning to buy herself some beautiful clothes after the war was over, when she heard a chaotic shouting outside the carriage.
A war? So soon?
The carriages of the dancers were at the end of the team, and usually the battlefield was far away from them.
But there is something special this time. The enemy does not appear in the front, but in the sky.
When they saw the monster flying in the sky, at least three dancers lost their breath instantly, and the remaining dancers screamed at the top of their lungs.
Fortunately, the soldiers of the Lion Kingdom were not so panicked. The airship was still far away from them. This thing flew very slowly. Under the leadership of General Andrew, the soldiers desperately prepared for battle. The archers set up their feather arrows and pulled away.
bowstrings, spearmen
Also be prepared to throw spears. The most important thing is the dragon-slaying crossbow. Although there are no real dragon-slayers in Charlemagne's army, these trained soldiers can still skillfully deploy the crossbows on the crossbows and use the fastest speed to launch the crossbows.
Crossbow cocking and calibration.
But Charlemagne gave the order to retreat.
This decision seemed absurd to everyone. The soldiers were stuck on the winding and rugged road. It would be more time-consuming for them to turn around and retreat than to prepare them for battle.
But only Charlemagne knew that this decision was not absurd.
Sophia told him that if he fights Reggie one day, he must do three things.
First, don't fight under the city wall. Attacking the city won't work, nor defending the city. Reggie's weapons can exert great power around the city.
Second, if Reggie sends out flying things, he must arrange the dragon-slaying crossbow. This is the only hope for victory.
Third, if the flying thing is wrapped in iron armor, like a giant dragon floating in the air, don't fight Reggie at this time, any weapon will be useless against it.
Charlemagne loved Sophia deeply and believed every word she said.
He gave the order to retreat, which was the right order, but it came a little late.
A total of nearly twenty minutes were wasted from the time all soldiers received the order to getting ready to retreat.
Using these twenty minutes, Reggie's airship had reached the enemy's head.
The soldiers were traveling faster than the airship, but the formation was very unfavorable. The slowest baggage team was at the front, and the fastest cavalry was at the back. The whole army could only move forward slowly with the baggage team.
Even so, the marching speed still exceeded the speed of the airship. For safety reasons, Reggie recalled Natalie long ago. Now all the soldiers are stepping on the propellers desperately, even Chris is no exception.
"Tread on, step on as hard as you can! Good man of Broken Snow City! The time for battle has come! The time for glory has come! Let me see who is the hero!"
Reggie encouraged the soldiers while adjusting the direction of the airship.
Chris felt like his legs were about to break: "God, God, why do you want me to do this? I can't stand it anymore, I really can't stand it anymore! Reggie Victor, you should let me do something like this."
More importantly, I can control the direction, and I can also drop bombs. You can't do this to me, I'm really exhausted!"
Reggie sneered: "Drop a bomb? Can you do it?"
Chris was surprised: "Why can't I do it?"
Reggie said: "Below are your brother and the soldiers of the Lion Kingdom. Do you have the heart to drop bombs on their heads?"
"Of course I can," Chris replied calmly, "Since you have chosen war, you must be prepared to kill. I am not as holy as you think."
"Well... maybe you can do it, but I don't want to be so cruel," Reggie pursed his lips and said, "I'd better let someone else drop the bomb."
"Are you doubting me?" Chris stared at Reggie closely, "Is there really no trust between us at all?"
"Heartless! How could you say such a thing? I feel sorry for you, do you understand?"
"I don't need you to feel bad," Chris still looked directly at Reggie, "There are only us and the enemy on the battlefield, and I will not show mercy to the enemy."
"Go ahead, Your Highness," Reggie sighed, "If you really can't do it, don't force yourself. It's not a shame."
Charlemagne's troops continued to accelerate their retreat. For a while, they had left the airship behind. But when they turned the first corner, they discovered a fatal problem. The airship did not need to turn, it could
They had been flying in a straight line, and with just this one bend, the airship was already ahead of them.
When the airship passed over Charlemagne's head, the hatch below opened.
Chris stood by the door and said to Dorothy: "Good girl, say something for me."
Charlemagne was still making a last-ditch effort to retreat, but he heard Chris's deafening voice coming from above his head.
"Charlemagne, my brother! Do you miss me? I miss you very much!"
Charlemagne gritted his teeth and his body shook uncontrollably.
"You must live!" Chris shouted, "We are going to fight in the Lion City! You must remember!"
Several bombs fell from the sky, and Charlemagne shouted: "Disperse the army, disperse immediately!"
