In the macro situation of the war, it was a bit like a turn-based game of chess. When Sodelor took the initiative in the first move, all of Udora's responses were forced to follow his rhythm. She could only make a decision from a limited number of choices.
For her, if she fought head-on, Udora's army might not have a chance of winning. However, if she chose to cross the river, it would take time to transport the troops slowly …
Now she decisively chose to retreat. She withdrew nearly half of the main combat force overnight. Therefore, when facing the pressing enemy, she could no longer organize enough elite troops to resist.
At this time, the morale of Udora's army must be unstable, because the soldiers who stayed in the north bank all knew that they were victims. They were not religious fanatics. At this time, the constant turmoil in the front line had already explained the problem.
Even Konos, who didn't know much about military affairs, understood the advantage of launching an attack at this time.
The MP observed the battle formation magnified by magic in front of him. He was wondering when the army of the Kingdom of Karen would start to attack. Suddenly, two Vulcan cannons burst into flashes …
The loud noise came a few seconds later, and at the same time, the four "Marmot" cannons rained shells on the enemy's position. Even from so far away, Konos could see the ten-meter-high waves of blood on the enemy's position.
A large part of the enemy's formation was suddenly blown away by the impact. Even the soldiers who were a hundred meters away from the center of the explosion were thrown to the ground. The taller flags, the warhorses, and the buildings at the ferry at the rear all fell to the ground!
Even though these people had faced thermal weapons once, they didn't know how to deal with it at this time — they had no trenches or any fortifications. How could the sand used to block the vision stop the shells? There was still a kilometer away, but a large deep pit was blasted in the middle of the entire team.
Konos, who was standing on the tower, saw that the team of less than three thousand people stood there motionlessly. The six artillery vehicles of different sizes did not stop at all. Seeing this situation, the enemy had no choice but to charge, but because the distance was too far, the team slowed down after three hundred meters. When they reached six hundred meters, they had been bombarded by the 'Marmot's' shells and began to flee.
The enemy's supervising team and priestesses desperately cast spells and shouted while a portion of the mutated soldiers continued to advance. However, they were ultimately too far away. Even though the mutated soldiers were strong and strong, they still became targets of the "groundhog" cannons on the way over and were shot into pieces of minced meat on the spot.
The power of artillery shells and bows were on a completely different level, and the enemy could only prove it with their flesh and blood.
The charging soldiers were like a tidal wave. At first, they were abnormally fast, but as the bullets from the "Groundhog" cannons fired horizontally, the lines of flesh split open, causing the advance of the frontline to slow down.
The bombardment lasted for five minutes.
In the end, only less than a hundred of the defending soldiers came within fifty meters of the Kingdom of Karen's position. Then, they were shot down by the crystal spears.
After that, the infantry formation began to advance. The cooling cannons emitted white smoke. On the tower, Konos, who had witnessed all this, kept swallowing his saliva.
His magic would not deceive his sight. Throughout the whole process of the battle, Konos clearly saw one fact: the infantry of Karen did not even come into direct contact with the enemy, and they had already defeated the four thousand soldiers of the Kingdom of Karen.
Now, the advancing troops continued their bombardment. The ships of the enemy crossing the river were all blown to pieces. Without the influence of the "Anti-Magic Field," the crystal shells of the "Vulcan" cannons plowed the wooden dock at the crossing. Some of the people on the ships were even blown into pieces by the shells that landed beside them.
White and red water splashed everywhere. The enemy's position had completely collapsed. The soldiers who could not bear the pressure of the artillery took off their armors and jumped into the river to escape. However, under the rapid current, many of them were washed far away as soon as they jumped into the river. They desperately swam forward, but many of them were exhausted from running. As they swam in the river, they began to choke on the water. When they swam to the deepest part of the river, they gradually lost their strength and were quickly washed downstream.
Even though many of them saw this result, they still chose to jump into the river to survive. Because they did not dare to face the constant bombardment of artillery shells behind them. Fear spread faster than the plague. Especially when the artillery shells were getting closer and closer to the enemy, no one cared about the order. They even began to slash and trample on the enemy.
The Expeditionary Force of the Kingdom of Karen, which was constantly approaching, maintained its own pace. Ten minutes later, the Expeditionary Force of the Kingdom of Karen had been pressing forward in front of the Ramu River. More than 3,000 enemies gave up resistance and became prisoners of war because they did not have time to escape. The rest completely fled in all directions. The constantly rolling shadows in the river were like a school of salmon swimming against the current, struggling to move forward under the power of nature.
Most of them were destined to disappear in the Ramu River forever.
The artillery vehicles were abnormally hot because of the continuous bombardment. When the Expeditionary Force stopped, the accompanying artillery company immediately began to find suitable positions and began to build bunkers to defend against possible long-range attacks by the enemy. Although the Ramu River was a natural barrier, the river itself was only more than 100 meters wide. Even if the two armies did not stand near the river, if they used weapons such as catapults or crossbows, they would still be a threat.
But now it seemed that many of the "siege weapons" of Udora's army were abandoned on this position before they had time to use them. The headquarters that she temporarily crossed the river to escape did not have time to take any large weapons with them.
In less than three days, the mixed army of nearly 40,000 people had been reduced to just over 10,000 auxiliary soldiers and the elite soldiers of the command center on the other side of the river. At this point in the battle, everyone knew that the other side had no hope of turning the situation around.
And far away on the tower of La Xia, MP Chronos watched all this without saying a word for more than ten minutes. He seemed to be possessed.
After nearly 20 minutes, a soldier came to report:
"Prime Minister, General Sodelor reports to you: the frontline army has disintegrated the enemy's defense. 2,370 enemies were killed and 3,120 were captured. The rest jumped into the river or escaped. The rest fled to the other side of the Ramu River. Our army had three wounded, no one died. "
Roddy was a little surprised, "Three wounded? How did they get hurt? "
"It's … in order to cool the barrel, they accidentally burned …"
After saying this, Roddy's mouth twitched, "OK, go according to the plan. Ask the enemy if they want to surrender."
Naifei heard this and looked at him strangely, but she didn't say anything.
But MP Chronos, who had been looking at the distance in a daze, finally came to his senses, "That … Prime Minister, you mean, negotiate with the enemy?"
"Why, is there any problem?"
