This is...forcibly breaking through...

The Expendables' next move was even more astonishing.

Those who survived threw their bodies directly into the bonfire in the camp, and they covered the flames with their bodies and horses without saying a word.It just so happened that the food and grass were burned out and the moon was dim, and the whole camp was plunged into darkness.

No one dared to breathe, no one dared to expose himself in this darkness.

For a moment, a strange silence enveloped the surroundings, and even the decisive knights couldn't help being shaken.

Well, the time has come!

The red-haired man has a clear will to die in his heart, he is disheartened, but he wants to take out the remaining troops, "Everyone, follow me to break through—"

Whoops!

Before the man finished speaking, a beam of golden light spewed out towards the top, connecting the sky and the earth, vast and infinite.I saw the majestic king with blond hair flying, his right arm holding up the real body of the beam of light - a golden sword!

Wang Yi said in an admonishing tone, "What I said before, calm down!"

"Always trust your king!"

The next moment, the beam of light suddenly fell, pointing directly at the only remaining army of the barbarians.

Chapter 30 Temporary Adjustment Strategies

When the beam of light came towards him, the barbarian commander was relieved, he knew that he and his soldiers were completely finished.

So, is that the legendary Sword of Victory bestowed by the Spirit of the Lake?Artoria Pendragon, King Arthur, we are so unlucky to meet an enemy like you!Perhaps, our clan will cease to exist.

The barbarian commander couldn't even raise his fighting spirit in the face of absolute power, and the light of the Noble Phantasm instantly overwhelmed him.

Rumble!Even if Hayasaka Ai didn't release it with all her strength, the power of the Tojo Noble Phantasm was still terrifying, and a huge crack was abruptly opened on the ground as if dividing the earth in half.

After the golden light was extinguished, the frightening tremor ended.

Ai Hayasaka let out a long mouthful and slowly lowered the sword, not even leaving the ashes of the enemy behind.

Immediately, she held up the sword of the vowed victory, "I declare that the first battle has been won!"

"Long live!"

"King Arthur must win!"

"Eternal King!"

The knights burst into applause. Human beings worship the strong. Obviously, Ai Hayasaka's finishing blow left a deep impression on people.They are absolutely determined to King Arthur's power and will not waver in the slightest.

With the cries of the Knights, the first battle of the winter strategy came to an end.

After a while, Gawain and Lancelot returned one after another, which also showed that the escaped barbarians in the periphery had been completely wiped out.In the huge camp, not a single enemy survived.

After ordering to rest in place, Ai Hayasaka and the Knights of the Round Table hurriedly held a meeting.

In this battlefield environment, the girl didn't pay attention at all, she just sat on the floor, and the other three basically sat in the direction of the mahjong table.

"Report to the king, a total of 850 and five enemies were killed on the left and right wings."

Because of the difference in qualifications, Gao Wen and Lancelot are theoretically at the same level, but in fact they are still headed by Gao Wen. Of course, this is also Ai Hayasaka's way of check and balance.But Lancelot seemed to be very slow to tricks and the like, and didn't care at all that he was actually suppressed. For example, he now let Gao Wen take credit.

Of course, Ai Hayasaka knew that a fool like Gawain would not play such schemes, otherwise she would not be so stupid as to actively create conflicts among her subordinates. What she wanted was the cooperation of the Knights of the Round Table.

At least, the team didn't need too much imperial mind skills in the initial stage.

Gao Wen reported cheerfully, with a sunny expression as if he was saying come and praise me.

"According to the king's command, I did not let go of an enemy."

Hayasaka Ai is the one who knows how to talk nonsense when people talk about people, and she immediately encouraged her, "You really deserve to be my right-hand man Gao Wenqing. I knew that you would be able to do it with your bravery and combat skills. I will reward you with a piece of land."

"As long as I can fight with the king, I don't need fiefdoms or anything."

"Hehe, for the sake of the elders, I have to mention something: how to deal with rewards is your freedom, but you must not refuse to accept rewards from your superiors. People who have nothing to ask for must plan for bigger things, which will make you feel uncomfortable. The other party is uneasy. I don't mind, you kid, don't suffer from others in the future." Aiyu Hayasaka warned earnestly.

Gao Wen smiled innocently, "It doesn't matter, one minister does not serve two masters, and the king I, Gao Wen, will always be loyal to is you alone."

"Unswervingly determined until death."

"Don't say unlucky words. I don't need you to be so exaggerated. You still have to work for me if you want to save your life."

Agguivin and Lancelot couldn't help smiling when they watched the interaction between the two.

Such a humane king deserves our allegiance.

Ai Hayasaka carefully took out a map from the cloak, "This is the comparison map after scouting. According to the battle plan, we still have eight targets to choose from... But we only carry five days of rations, and time is running out." .”

There are too many factors to consider when marching and fighting. On the premise of maintaining mobility and combat effectiveness, Ai Hayasaka can only order the Knights to carry a maximum of five days of rations.

"I don't think it's that urgent. Tonight we should have wiped out [-]% of the main force of the barbarians, not to mention they lost almost all their food and grass." Agguiwen said, "This is a turning point."

"My lord, we still have treasures that are useless." Lancelot said confidently, "Otherwise, this process will be faster."

"You still have to be careful, after all, there are strong people on the barbarian side." Ai Hayasaka said cautiously.

The girl drew a line from the map, which just connected the five target raid locations and returned to the ruins of King Uther's fortress. The calculated distance was about six days to spare.

In this case, the Knights will still maintain their peak combat power on the sixth day.

"Since we have won a complete victory in today's night raid, we can give up three goals for safety."

Gao Wen frowned, "However, this way cannot wipe out the barbarian's vitality to the greatest extent."

Lancelot and Agguiwen, who were fighting high, were also a little shaken.

Of course, Hayasaka could see that they didn't want to give up, but she naturally wouldn't easily reject the opinions of her subordinates, because there were enough reasons, "It's not so much for safety, it's better to recharge your batteries for the decisive battle, so you should let The Knights are at their best."

Armageddon, what is that?

Ai Hayasaka immediately explained the doubts of the crowd, "You know, this is the enemy's territory. Even if you have been maneuvering at a high speed, you will be caught up sooner or later. Besides, our horses are not as fast as the barbarian horses."

"It is estimated that the matter here will not be hidden from dawn. Our big move on the grassland will definitely cause the barbarians to form a powerful crusade army to track them down. The first thing to do is to draw from the eight tribes, which means that we will be in vain. , because the vast grassland is exchanging space for time consumption.”

"Suppose, we hit eight targets and still miss the situation, and when we are exhausted on the sixth day, we are overtaken by the crusade army with [-]% of the troops? This is still in a situation where we can really bear it."

The answer is self-evident, and everyone has to admit that Ai Hayasaka's worries are very reasonable.

"Then what should we do?" Gao Wen asked hastily.

"So I chose to give up the three tribes that are relatively far away. As for those small tribes, I don't have time to deal with them. In short, the cleaner we do, the weaker the crusade army will be in the end."

"With chasing troops behind us, we still have to go all the way to conquer. We are fast, that is to destroy the five tribes and face the weak crusade army on the sixth day. They are fast, that is, to catch up to us who are exhausted Crush with superior force."

"This is a life-and-death contest, and the side that has more will be able to grasp the timing of the decisive battle."

To put it bluntly, this is a game against time.On the vast grassland, trade space for time to deal with the enemy to the greatest extent.Then, a decisive battle will be fought with superior forces.

What the hell is a barbarian, come and make gestures with me, a commander who has become a monk halfway.

Ai Hayasaka's blood was boiling with enthusiasm for coming to the scene to command such a challenging and major battle.Who doesn't want to make great achievements with gold and iron horses, and who doesn't want to command troops on the battlefield with high spirits. If you have such an opportunity, don't be afraid to play with your heartbeat.

"Pass down the order, and immediately rush to the nearest large tribe in the early morning of tomorrow."

Chapter 31

After a simple night's rest, Ai Hayasaka didn't dare to stay longer and chose to leave early.

The entire knight group set off when the east was slightly pale. Ai Hayasaka led the army and hurried to the first target after the adjustment of the battle plan. She felt that there was no more time to waste.

Then, a thousand war horses disappeared into the dark horizon with the smoke and dust rolled up.

In fact, Hayasaka Ai's judgment was correct, she just passed by the second batch of assembled troops.This army is a collection of small tribes and troops directly under the leader. In terms of strength, it is comparable to the knights of Hayasaka Ai. Once encountered, it will inevitably be a fierce battle and disrupt the winter strategy.

Perhaps, historical coincidences are often full of drama, and just such a perfect time difference between the two sides has given Britain a profound impact.

After the second batch of main forces of the barbarian masters in the early morning arrived at the assembly point, they were dumbfounded!

Scorched corpses, dilapidated tents, stumped limbs, ashes of food and grass, and the messy ground after being trampled by a large number of horseshoes... In addition, of course, there is a shocking gully stretching several hundred meters.Everything is telling the tragedy here, obviously the barbarian troops here have been attacked.

It was not an ordinary attack, they were all wiped out!

Who is it that dares to be so bold?Taking advantage of the darkness to cause trouble on the territory of the grassland nation, they won a complete victory.

"Hurry up and clean the battlefield! Don't stand still!" The leader ordered, "Check, there may be people alive."

"I can't see it anymore."

Since the immediate boss, Earl Maltz, had spoken, the adjutant had no choice but to keep silent.

But he didn't mean to be convinced at all. He thought that Earl Maltz was just a nobleman who was frightened by King Arthur.It's just a traitor, and everyone can punish him.

I saw this middle-aged man with a British face take off his helmet and turn over from his horseback. Seeing his vigorous skills, he may have experienced military life.

Maltz leaned over, stroked a horseshoe print and said, "No mistake, this is a horseshoe print unique to British horse breeds. Judging from the number of marching kitchens, there are about a thousand of them. I have reason to believe that King Arthur personally marched."

Yes, only that talented king can think of such a daring night attack, the existence that I can only escape from.

"As a result, it looks like a complete victory." The adjutant said in a strange way.

Humph, what a barbarian, who doesn't care about his fellow countrymen.

The earl cursed inwardly, and didn't realize that he was double-standard.

"Don't worry, the war has just begun. It's obvious that King Arthur has put all of Britain's power into a desperate situation. Let's just play with him." Maltz, who was backed by the barbarian forces, couldn't wait to show himself by attacking Britain.

"So, what should I do?"

"Since King Arthur did not retreat but went deep alone, the goal must be to wipe out the eight tribes. After all, this can consume the war potential of the barbarians to the greatest extent... But there is not enough time to wipe out the eight tribes. If it is, I will selectively give up the three furthest tribes." One... no, two to keep the route safe."

"After all, that person won the night raid and can choose more strategic margins..."

Taking out a detailed grassland map from his body, Maltz looked at it carefully and said clearly, "Then, the Knights will definitely operate within this range."

The adjutant's eyes lit up, "Shall we go after him now?"

"If we can't catch up, King Arthur's horses rested all night and set off before us, so don't waste your efforts." Maltz said quietly, "What we have to do is to wait for work at leisure, and hang them slowly behind like hunting, to maintain deterrence to the big battle."

"The decisive battle is when the knights are the most exhausted after eating six tribes."

Abandoning only two tribes, King Arthur's army still has to travel day and night, and in the end it must be exhausted, demoralized and vulnerable.Since they could only carry five days' rations at most, the decisive battle on the sixth day from now on happened to be when King Arthur's troops were at their worst.

Though we must have been tired by then, King Arthur's army was even more tired and faced battle losses.

"Pass down the order and immediately summon the two farthest tribes and let them pursue with us."

"In that case, wouldn't it become a time-running game?"
