Chapter 591： rout (top)

On the ice field in the sky, a large army of trolls has left Windroar Fort and is heading south.

Okamoto was dressed in gorgeous armor, covered with a black cloak, and rode atop a vigorous white wolf with his head held high, looking quite heroic.

This young but very skillful and daring troll emperor still holds a very high status in the hearts of the soldiers.

Moreover, Okamoto's confident appearance greatly infected the troll soldiers and gave them more confidence in this expedition to the north.

But in reality, Okamoto is not as confident as he seems.

He knew very well that the army he led looked decent, but in fact it was the last piece of the troll empire's family, and its combat effectiveness was really worrying.

Moreover, the troll empire has experienced several previous fiascoes, and the domestic economy has come to the brink of collapse. This expedition was forcibly started under the circumstance that the logistics could not be guaranteed.

The quartermaster had secretly confessed to Okamoto that the food and forage prepared this time were simply not enough to support the army's smooth arrival in the north, so it must be controlled from the very beginning, and even "downsizing" could be appropriate to reduce the rate of food and forage loss...

So along the way, a lot of "tails" have been left behind the troll army.

Those soldiers who couldn't keep up with the big army were all brutally abandoned.

As for how badly this will affect the military's morale, Okamoto is already reluctant to think about it.

This expedition is an unsuccessful military adventure for the Troll Empire, and it is imperative to pay no matter how great the price is.

In addition, Okamoto didn't know what the situation on the holy mountain was like.

Paladin Prince Otto and White Wolf Witch King Squinn put their lives on the line to assassinate Colin Angele, did they succeed?

How much fighting power is left in the blood cavalry army?

However, for this carefully planned assassination, Okamoto is still relatively confident.

As long as Colin died and the blood cavalry suffered heavy losses, the threat to the troll empire in the north would be greatly weakened.

In addition, the main troops in the north have been transferred to the west to deal with the invasion of the orcs. At this time, as long as the trolls can go south smoothly, they will definitely be able to break through!

After some self-comfort, Okamoto's waist became more straight.

"Your Majesty, according to the latest statistics, a total of 125 soldiers were left behind yesterday..."

Prince Abbas got close to Okamoto and reported in a low voice.

Okamoto nodded expressionlessly, indicating that he knew.

Now that the army has left the Wind Roar Fort, it is also far away from the troll settlement. Therefore, the soldiers who are left behind, even if they still have a breath, will definitely not be able to escape the fate of being starved to death and frozen to death.

In fact, this harsh march was also a process of natural selection. By eliminating those soldiers who couldn't keep up with the team, it was possible to make this army that was not so elite achieve an effect of "removing the **** and saving the essence".

I just don't know how many 100,000 troops will be left when they reach the North...

Seeing that Okamoto didn't take care of him, Prince Abbas was also a little annoyed.

In fact, after Modo II was killed by Colin, the most promising person to succeed the throne of the Troll Empire should be Prince Abbas.

But I didn't expect the White Wolf Witch King to actually support Okamoto, which made Prince Abbas miss the throne.

It is certainly impossible to say that Prince Abbas has no complaints about this.

It's just that he also knows that the troll empire can't stand internal friction at all, so he won't do stupid things.

Of course, Prince Abbas still had a thorn in his heart. Now that he saw Okamoto's indifferent attitude, he felt a little boring, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the former army to see the situation.

Of course, Okamoto would not stop him. In fact, he had always been jealous of Prince Abbas, and it was only because of the pressure in the north that he deliberately hid his thoughts.

It can be said that the rare unity within the Troll Empire today is entirely the result of the enormous pressure exerted by the North.

However, he said that Prince Abbas had just rode a white wolf to the former army when he saw Ubam, the former army commander, with a solemn expression:

"His Royal Highness, the scouts haven't sent back news for a long time, I'm afraid something is wrong."

Prince Abbas frowned and said, "Didn't you send another group of scouts out to inquire about the situation?"

Ubam suddenly had a bitter face, and said helplessly: "Your Highness, I have no scouts in my hands..."

Prince Abbas also woke up.

Scouts can be said to be one of the most elite units in an army, and it is impossible to be competent without sufficient experience and ability.

Given the embarrassment of the troll empire today, there are simply not many experienced and capable wolf cavalrymen to serve as scouts, so even if Ubam wanted to send people to investigate, he would not be able to send troops at all.

Prince Abbas pondered for a moment, but decided to act cautiously, and said:

"Gather the front army, slow down the speed, we will wait for the large army behind."

"Yes!"

Ubam secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly issued a military order.

The marching speed of the former army suddenly slowed down, and gradually began to move closer to the central army.

It didn't take long for the former army's change to be discovered by the central army, and Okamoto also sent an envoy to ask what was going on.

Prince Abbas had just explained two sentences to the messenger when he saw Ubam shouting in horror:

"Your Highness, Your Highness! There are cavalry, and a large number of cavalry appear in our south!"

Prince Abbas hurriedly looked in the direction Ubam pointed, and saw a thin black line on the southern horizon of the army.

In the blink of an eye, this thin line quickly spread and turned into a turbulent black tide, swept in its direction.

Feeling the tremor of the earth, Prince Abbas' heart sank.

"Blood cavalry! It is the blood cavalry!"

There were already many terrified shouts of soldiers around.

That's right, with such a mighty power, it can only be the cavalry that can make all the trolls terrified!

why?

How did the blood cavalry appear here?

Did the assassination of the paladin Prince Otto and the Witch King of the White Wolf fail?

This question haunts the minds of the troll soldiers, making them uneasy and at a loss. UU reading

"Array! Meet the enemy!"

It was not until Prince Abbas let out a shrill roar that the trolls woke up like a dream, and hurriedly set up their formations, preparing to meet the enemy.

But in fact, they were not prepared to deal with the blood cavalry at all.

Infantry to deal with cavalry, the best formation is the shield and spear.

However, such well-equipped and well-trained soldiers have long since been lost in several previous fiascoes. Now this army of trolls, not to mention the blood cavalry army, can be easily pierced by ordinary northern soldiers. their position.

But at this moment, they have no choice.

The fate of running away will only be worse, and now the trolls can only fight to the death.

Prince Abbas stared at the surging cavalry ahead, roared wildly, and said:

"Warriors, the eyes of the **** of war are watching you!
