Chapter 478: Meeting the Sand Devil for the First Time
Arishan sent out her army of sand demons and followed the Golden Lion Army to the foot of Lion's Foot Mountain.
Chris's play was realistic enough, but Alice was also cautious enough. Since she had a chance to win a big victory, she didn't want to leave the enemy a chance to escape. She directly asked the Queen of Yellow Sand to send out the Sand Demon.
Chris had never seen the Sand Demon, but he saw the terrifying military formation. For a moment, Chris thought he was hallucinating. Fortunately, the two generals around him remained awake.
"Your Highness, we must retreat immediately!"
"You have to be fast, otherwise the whole army will be annihilated!"
Retreating is not as simple as it sounds. The Golden Lion Army is at the foot of the mountain. Retreating means being pursued.
But even so, it was better than being surrounded by tens of thousands of troops. Chris let the artillery retreat first, trying to buy time without alerting the enemy.
How could Charlemagne find so many soldiers?
Edmund's voice echoed in his ears, and Chris had a very bad premonition.
This should be an evil spirit, but I didn't expect that Charlemagne had really fallen to this point.
Fortunately, the Sand Demon's slow movement gave the artillery enough time to retreat. Before the enemy formed an encirclement, all Chris's soldiers had left Lion's Foot Mountain.
Narses was still the out-and-out fool. By the time he ordered the pursuit, Chris had already escaped for more than ten miles. Sandos led the cavalry and fought with the Golden Lion Army, using nearly 40% of his troops.
The battle damage allowed Chris to return to the camp safely.
After returning to the camp, Chris immediately ordered to find all the people from the Benlang Kingdom, Genting Kingdom and Tianxing Kingdom among the mercenaries.
This is what makes Chris extraordinary. He is extremely alert and has received a noble education. Although he has never seen the Sand Demon, he can guess the answer through the characteristics of the enemy.
The Benlang Kingdom is the main victim country of the sand demon, but the sand demons are not only distributed in the Benlang Kingdom, but also in the Genting Kingdom and the Tianxing Kingdom. They all have methods to deal with the sand demons. They will prescribe the right medicine as soon as possible. Chris once again
Showed extraordinary wisdom.
In less than half an hour, the mercenary battalion commander found more than twenty soldiers from the Benlang Kingdom.
When the shepherds of Benlang Country could no longer survive, they often wandered to surrounding countries. Since they were not good at farming and did not understand craftsmen's skills, most of them became soldiers.
But the Yunding and Tianxing people are not easy to find. Some Yunding soldiers return to neighboring countries to find food after retiring. As for the Tianxing people, only escaped criminals will choose to serve as mercenaries.
Chris's luck was not good. There were only werewolves in front of him. When he heard their various methods, Chris realized the seriousness of the problem.
It was definitely too late to coat the weapons with mercury, and there was no need to think too much about poisonous weeds and insects. As for black oil, Chris had never seen such a thing before, and the verbal tactics they introduced seemed unrealistic. Chris didn't have time to collect so much.
Drool, not even time to collect feces.
The only feasible method is salt water. Chris's camp is close to the sea. He has prepared warships and small boats, and also built a small dock. He has always planned to attack Golden Lion Port from the sea, but the number of warships is currently not enough.
The sand demon army arrived two hours later. Before they attacked the camp, Chris personally led a cavalry and led most of the sand demons to the seaside. Narses wanted to lead the Golden Lion Army to surround Chris.
However, they were attacked by Goluz's artillery fire.
Chris had great confidence in Narses, and he firmly believed that this fool would never have the courage to risk his life.
Narses did not disappoint him. After encountering two rounds of artillery fire, his horse was hit by shrapnel and fell to the ground. Narses, who fell from the horse, was injured and ordered the retreat with tears and shouts.
Order.
After the Golden Lion Army retreated, Chris was free to deal with the sand demon. He dealt with the sand demon on the coast for a while, and then asked Goluz to lead the artillery to force the sand demon into the sea, while he and the cavalry carried the sand demon.
The pre-prepared boat escaped to the warship.
Having lost its pursuit target, the sand demon turned to attack the camp, but Goel's offensive never stopped. Under the blockage of artillery, the corpses of the sand demon piled up more and more, and soon formed a roadblock. The tide grew longer and higher.
The sand demon trapped on the beach continued to turn into loose sand under the impact of the sea water.
"It seems that these things are not that difficult to deal with. They only know how to rush up and die. If I were in Sangro Port, I would definitely be able to leave a legend like Reggie!" Chris returned to the camp on the warship and looked at the sand.
The death speed of the demon army seems to be no problem if it kills tens of thousands at a time.
But this time, the sand demon army suddenly changed. They did not continue their stubborn charge on the beach, but slowly retreated outside the range of the artillery. This was because the Queen of Yellow Sand appeared on the battlefield, and she was facing the sand demons.
The devil's tactics have changed.
"Do you know how dangerous this is? If I die, all these sand demons will be dead!" Alishan looked at Alice angrily. She was being coerced, and it was obviously not her intention to go to the battlefield in person.
"Do you know why every armored witch is inevitably destined to die a tragic death?" Alice looked at Alishan with a smile, "Because they are too cowardly."
"It's not that I don't dare to go to the battlefield, but I have to wait for the most suitable opportunity."
"Do you want to prepare an army of one million? When that time comes, the other side will use all their means on you. No one can defeat one million enemies. They can only kill you because they have no other choice.
The choice you made is seeking your own death!"
Alishan looked at Alice in surprise. This witch who was younger than her had completely read through her thoughts.
"You suffered a big loss in Sangro Port, and you were captured by other wolf kings before." Alice looked at Yalishan with a smile, "The people who are most afraid of death often die the fastest. You are
The devil's daughter is also a witch, stop squandering the talents God has given you."
After the sand demon retreated, Chris immediately adjusted his strategy. There was no need for complicated tactics, and there was no need to care about the wizard army. It was now a life-or-death situation.
Chris was not as good at mathematics as Reggie, but judging purely from the number of sand demons, the chances of capturing the royal capital from land were slim. He decided to attack from the sea, and after seizing the Golden Lion Port, directly occupied the palace.
There was no need for any probing. He knew the Golden Lion Port well. There were about forty warships there. Chris only had seven. But his warships were equipped with artillery. It was difficult for Charlemagne's warships to pose a threat to him. At sea,
There is no need to worry about the battle, the focus of tactics lies after landing.
Seven warships can carry 3,000 soldiers. These 3,000 soldiers will face the Golden Lion Army, and they must be prepared for a deadly battle.
