Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1424 One-on-one
Rout is contagious. Initially, only a small number of soldiers may be unable to resist running away. But when this small number of soldiers cannot be stopped, other soldiers will follow suit, eventually leading to an uncontrollable rout on the battlefield.

This situation happens especially when morale is low, and it will cause a chain reaction.

They were already very tired after traveling for days and had not even had a hot meal. When they arrived, they immediately started to attack the city. Strategic magic did not work and a dragon appeared.

If the Subia Demon Kingdom's army still has the will to fight, they will head towards the supervisory team.

Looking from above, the soldiers on the entire battlefield were rolling back from the front like waves.

The people at the front ran back, and naturally the troops that were pressing forward would follow suit and run back. The formation was completely messed up, and no matter how loudly the war drums beat, no one would move forward.

At this moment, the huge silver horn of the Blackrock Fortress emitted a low echo, followed by a loud trumpet. The rumbling sound of horse hooves immediately covered the sound of the horn. The cavalry set out from the Blackrock Fortress and cleared out the fleeing soldiers.

It was very difficult for infantry to fight against cavalry. Before the popularization of firearms, the only way for infantry was to hold guns and shields and form a solid formation to fight against cavalry charges.

The fleeing soldiers obviously did not have the organization to form a spear formation, and would be crushed by the cavalry.

Sending out cavalry to chase the fleeing soldiers is a standard operation, but it is rare to find a commander like Viola who really goes to war when something happens...

Ah yes, Viola leads the charge.

He held a sword in one hand and slashed left and right, and held a spear in the other hand and stabbed randomly.

Although there are guards by his side and the soldiers he is facing are all fleeing soldiers, it is still risky to rush out.

Just as Viola led the cavalry to charge out, a column of holy light suddenly descended from the deep night sky and shone right on Viola.

That was when Li Chengxi saw the situation and fired a "Chosen One" to give Viola more temporary divine power to ensure her safety when she rushed out.

This scene had different effects on everyone on the battlefield.

The morale of the soldiers of Avarus was high, and they felt that there was really a god shining above their heads, which made the soldiers feel that they were truly fighting a holy war.

The soldiers of the Subia Demon Kingdom were already fleeing, and seeing this, they were afraid of running too slowly. Even if some soldiers still had some will to resist, they could only run for their lives under the illumination of this holy light, making the already chaotic battlefield even more chaotic.

The soldiers on both sides were not sure whether the Demon King was watching the battle. After all, it was not like before when Li Chengxi came up with a rain of fire and then intervened forcefully.

Now everyone knows that the Demon God is watching.

The Subia Demon Kingdom's army was completely doomed. They had abandoned all their siege equipment, even weapons like spears that would make it inconvenient for them to escape, resulting in an utterly uncontrollable rout.

Meanwhile, at the rear command post of the Subia Demon Kingdom's army, Isaac still stood there like a statue, watching the soldiers fleeing indifferently.

Perhaps it reminded him of his disastrous defeat in the Kaimen City, or perhaps it reminded him of the night his grandfather died at the hands of Viola.

The staff officers were very busy, issuing orders one after another in an attempt to stabilize the morale of the troops.

But the collapsed morale made all the orders come to nothing, no one was willing to listen, and in the end, even the messenger never returned.

At this point, no matter how reluctant the staff were, they had to admit that they had been defeated.

One of the staff officers came up to Isaac and said:

"General, we need to retreat immediately. Her Royal Highness the Princess's cavalry will be here soon."

In this era, capturing soldiers as prisoners is generally meaningless. Everyone generally likes to capture officer-level prisoners, because these officers are all nobles and are excellent materials for negotiations and exchange for money, while soldiers are of little value.

So naturally, after Viola's cavalry charged on the battlefield for a while, they immediately rushed to the rear headquarters. Isaac still didn't answer, and I wondered if he had fallen asleep.

The staff officer was anxious and angry. This battle was impossible to win. Their troops were seriously insufficient in number, their morale was very low, and they had no means to deal with the Demon King. It was like hitting a rock with an egg.

The staff officer didn't understand why the order to send troops was given from above, and he could only do his job well.

Now that we have been defeated, we must minimize the losses as much as possible.

"General, now is not the time to be distracted. The soldiers need you!"

"Do I look like I'm in a daze?"

Isaac finally responded, but with an irrelevant question.

The staff officer is so furious, can you be a little more reliable?

"You must be thinking now that it is unfortunate for the Tiger of the Kingdom that his grandson is such a waste."

Isaac's calm words startled the staff officer, as he had indeed been thinking so just now.

This staff officer has been in the army for twenty years. It can be said that he has been working under the Tiger of the Kingdom since he first entered the army. He has great respect for Isaac's grandfather.

Now that his grandson is in such a terrible state, the staff officer must be feeling very bad.

Isaac sighed and turned to face the staff officer:
"I know everything. I also understand that this battle will be lost, but it is a battle that must be fought. I don't expect you to understand, but please believe that I am just like Grandpa. I will always do this for the kingdom."

At this time, the sound of horse hooves was becoming louder and louder, and Viola was very close to the command center.

"You go ahead, I'll buy you some time. Guards! Bring my horse!"

"General! We can still..."

"I'm not being a hero. Soldiers have their jobs, and I have mine. This is the meaning of this battle. Obey orders! Retreat immediately. Once you are out of the battle, retreat back to the fortress immediately."

The staff officer's eyes were filled with confusion, doubt, and anger at Isaac's abnormal behavior, but he didn't say anything more. The civilian staff quickly burned all the documents and retreated to the rear under the cover of the soldiers.

Isaac, on the other hand, mounted his horse with a dozen of his personal guards.

At this time, the barricades placed at the entrance of the command department had been pushed aside, and the cavalry led by Viola rushed in with the sound of horse hooves like thunder.

Isaac looked at her, his expression still calm, but the veins on his hand that was gripping the gun were bulging.

With less than 50,000 men attacking a fortress guarded by 100,000 elite soldiers, and with the timing, location and people not being on their side, how could Isaac not know that he was doomed to lose the battle?

He knew, and what he wanted was certain defeat, because he knew better the troublesome character of the Avarus royal family.

Only when he was chasing the fleeing soldiers did Isaac have the opportunity to meet Viola face to face like he does now.

"Your Highness, no, Your Majesty the Regent, I, Isaac, in accordance with the ancient laws of chivalry, challenge you to a one-on-one duel!"

He shouted at the charging Viola, and Viola did indeed slow her horse's pace.

As Isaac expected, Viola never refused a duel between knights.
