Tauren Overlord

Although it was just a young white dragon, its frost breath still froze one of the Pegasus cavalry captains into ice on the spot.

The remaining Pegasus riders were stunned—this was a dragon!

A strong person who can summon a dragon must be at least a mid-level spellcaster, right?

Even in the entire Beast Suppression Province, only extremely rare strong people like Governor Edric and Deputy Commander Gail Tule can be promoted to the middle level.

Let us fight against such a strong man... and this strong man is just one of the enemies?

At that moment, a strong thought surged in the hearts of all the Pegasus cavalrymen:

"Goodbye, I want to live!"

156. Sound the clarion call for counterattack

At the end of the night, the continuous explosions against the leader finally came to an end.

The gorgeous morning sun also broke through the constraints of the horizon and illuminated the dim earth.

The battlefield under the light was filled with scenes of imperial troops fleeing in all directions.

While Helena and the Harpy launched an air strike against the Empire's Lord Commander forces, she also sent in ground forces.

They are the 2 most combative ratmen among the 1000 ratmen in the Stone Forest Monastery.

Of course, this good fighting ability is the good fighting ability in the concept of rat people.

What they can do on a normal day is mainly to provide vigilance for the harpy witches.

If they really fought head-on, they probably wouldn't even be able to break through the peasant soldiers' shield wall.

Edric only needs two or three lords' old peasant troops to form a defensive formation to easily defend against or even defeat these ratmen.

After all, the individual combat capabilities of the ratmen are generally much worse than those of the cheap old farmers.

What's more, there have never been any great generals among the rat people, and their charging capabilities can basically be ignored.

Helena asked the rat man for help because it was the only option.

If she didn't take these ratmen with her, she and her harpy witch sisters would have no hope of helping Lu Heng out of trouble.

Even she had not expected that the Commune's light cavalry would adopt such radical tactics.

Everything is different now. As long as we launch an assault before the enemy establishes a line of defense, the enemy will have no line of defense.

As long as there is no line of defense, even the weak ratmen can become a rampaging assault force.

As for the problem of no generals among rats, it was unexpectedly solved.

Because the one leading this group of ratmen to charge was not some powerful general among rats, but a big guy with a dog's head.

He is Douglas, Lu Heng’s first apprentice!

Now that his master is in trouble, of course he has to be the first to take the lead!

This giant dog-man used the psionic simulation stone to transform himself into a true canine warrior.

Even if there were some remaining Lord Commander troops, how would they dare to resist when they saw these two-story-high behemoths rushing towards them?

For a while, there were leaders everywhere, some fleeing, and some even surrendering...

Even if there were still many leaders' troops that had not been bombed by the Commune's light cavalry, they would find it difficult to form an effective defensive force.

Just like after an avalanche occurs, no steadfast snowflake can stop the complete collapse.

At this moment, Edric, who was looking down at the earth, still had the top combat power on this battlefield.

But as he watched his troops continue to flee, he immediately thought of a serious problem.

As his subordinates fled one after another, he next had to fight against more than 30 minotaurs on the ground and more than 60 harpy witches in the sky.

With his own powerful strength, he might be able to protect his seriously injured son while fighting a hundred people at the same time.

And from a strategic point of view, if you put yourself in danger, you may be able to delay the opponent's main combat force.

The lords and officials who were forced to flee by the bombing can take this opportunity to reorganize their troops and restore their combat capabilities.

At least on paper, Edric's troops are still superior in both quantity and quality.

But he took another look at the Minotaur Lord on the ground, which made him feel deeply suspicious.

This minotaur actually found a solution even though he was in a desperate situation and was surrounded by enemies.

Did he plan all this in advance?

Or is it simply luck?

If all this was planned by him, then why would he form such a profound alliance with humans, an alien race?

This minotaur... is truly unfathomable!

If it were a normal situation, Edric might use his indestructible diamond face to hold back the enemy's 100 spellcasters.

But the situation is completely different when his opponents include the Minotaur Lord who can perform miracles!

If those 100 spellcasters attack me together under his command, will they be able to create some unexpected fighting methods?

For a moment, Edric's back, which was completely protected by the giant face, couldn't help but feel a little cold!

This is too dangerous!

Besides, the simple comparison of combat power is only one of the factors that affect Edric's choice.

The bigger problem is that if he took the risk to protect his subordinates at this time, it would be a serious deviation from his life creed!

According to the values ​​of this strong man of face, the lord's life should be spent like this:

When he looks back on the past, he will not regret not taking advantage of others, nor will he feel ashamed for not being able to trick others into working for him.

In this way, he can proudly say that I have made the best choice in my entire life - deceiving others and fighting for my own interests!

Of course, Edric had to deceive and even order his subordinates: Never retreat!

But how can you do the same for yourself?

Of course you should run as fast as you can and retreat to a safe place!

The same goes for other lords.

Whenever they encountered old farmers who retreated, the lords would order loyal officials to kill all the disobedient old farmers.

But when the enemy really comes to attack, what should the lord do?

Do these masters have to take the risk themselves?

how can that be!

In the eyes of the masters, only lowly old peasants deserved to suffer.

They are the only ones who should be ordered by the lord to never retreat. If they disobey orders and run away, they will be killed without mercy!

But such an iron rule should never be required of the lords who are high above.

Especially a noble governor like Edric, never, ever, ever, could stand in front of those little people!

He could never use his own power to protect his lowly subordinates.

Since you have powerful fighting power, you should use this power to help yourself escape quickly, and let the subordinates who are left behind bear the consequences of death!

After thinking this through, Edric no longer hesitated and ran away!

……

Of course, the army without the governor would no longer have any fighting spirit.

If you really encounter some individual cases where they resist stubbornly, feed them with the Minotaur's shock wave or the White Dragon's frost breath.

There's no need to even go through so much trouble. Just let Douglas and the ratmen charge at them and the problem will be solved.

Because Douglas was so fierce, the ratmen following behind him hardly needed to fight, so there were basically no losses.

The only problem is that there are too many leaders in the empire, at least ten thousand of them!

Even catching 10,000 pigs is not such an easy task...

It was not until the rising sun turned into the setting sun that Lu Heng, Helena and the others finally cleared the battlefield completely.

Edric's main force was finally basically dealt with by Lu Heng.

As Edric retreated with the "Giant Face of the Sky", Lu Heng also regained his landing point vision and could overlook the entire battlefield.

Some of the fastest cavalrymen and individual lords managed to escape from the battlefield with a small number of troops.

But compared with the more than 10,000 people before the expedition, the current leader's troops have been reduced by more than half, and there may be only 2,000 to 3,000 people left at most.

The main force of these remaining troops are mostly Edric's own people, which means that the other 20 or so lords basically have no decent troops.

They were originally an expeditionary force from the Western Continent. Even if there were some subjects left, they were merely family members or supporting personnel of this expeditionary force.

This is completely different from native territories like the Stone Forest Monastery.

Even if the 1000 ratmen in the Stone Forest Monastery suffered heavy casualties, they could still recruit strength from the nearly 2 civilians.

But when the Empire rescues people from the Western Continent, it may recruit 5000 able-bodied men from a human village of 500 people.

Given that they are going on an expedition across the sea, it is impossible to do so without logistical supply personnel, so they will bring along about 1000 supporting residents.

As for why not send all 5000 people here...

The reason is that the Imperial Navy does not have enough transport capacity, and even if it does, it does not want to waste it on these old farmers.

This resulted in these temporary territories in the Beast Suppression Province naturally having an excessively high ratio of military to civilians.

Now the troops of the lords have suffered heavy losses, and it is impossible to recruit new troops quickly.

This means that the Minotaur assault team under Lu Heng's command can now break through most of the territories of the Beast Slaying Province one by one.

No, it doesn't even need that much strength.

Even the human troops in the Mountain Territory and Artemisia Town can deal a fatal blow to most of the remaining lords!

Lu Heng has outlined the next goal:

He wanted to wipe out the lords, big and small, in the Empire's Beast Suppression Province one by one.

Once upon a time, the empire established this so-called Beast Suppression Province in order to exterminate "beast men" like Lu Heng.

But with Lu Heng's choices and changes, their identities have become completely different.

The Minotaur Overlord, who had been ordered to be exterminated by the Empire, finally sounded the clarion call for a counterattack.

From today on, you are the prey and we are the hunters!

The author says:

Author's words: I'd like to recommend Li Mengxi's new book "The Succubus Little Shota's Journey into the Harem".

Succubus little boy, pony driving a big car! Squeaky! Squeaky! Still squidgy!

The following is a brief introduction:

After traveling through time and space and becoming a cute little boy, Nangong Han expressed that he wanted to grow up quickly. He wanted to be shy~

But when he moved into Lady Mira's house, the system came and he became a succubus. Everything changed from then on.

Because if he wants to grow up, he can only keep flirting with various older sisters and seduce them?

"Xiao Han... aren't you going to hold your aunt and move around today? Hmm?" Madam Mira asked in a charming voice with twinkling eyes.

"Brother Xiaohan... today it's Sister Feng's turn to take a bath with you~" Feng glared at Ling who was staring at her eagerly and shouted in a tender voice with a slightly blushing face.

"Xiao Han?... Aunt Shendong misses your massage... Come quickly and give Auntie a massage..." The widow Mrs. Snow Girl shouted with a hungry look on her face.

"..."

"That...sisters...go slower...I...I can't stand the spiciness~" the succubus little boy Nangong Han cried out breathlessly, his expression seemed very overwhelmed~ (but he was actually very happy in his heart~)

Big sister, auntie, too much spicy ~ little boy can't stand the spiciness (more sisters, auntie or something is not impossible ~)
