Chapter 376 (1/2)
Sean and others evacuated quickly.
The Cecilia guards were already on standby at the back of the highland.
After they settled Burrell's troops last night, they immediately moved here, and then camped here until the morning. As the most powerful force in the war, the consumption of Cecilia guards is not small. Although only one person was killed in the battle, many people were actually injured. Even though TiNi received a lot of divine grace later, and her divine power has improved. In addition, the goddess of ice and snow and winter is not famous for her healing skills, and TiNi is still a combat God, Nature can't treat so many people.
Therefore, the method adopted is mainly physical therapy, supplemented by divine therapy.
Fortunately, Cecilia's guards came from mercenaries and were very familiar with this treatment, so many injuries stopped at once, which not only stopped bleeding immediately, but also prevented the deterioration of the injury, which saved Tina a lot of effort. The remaining problems are the temporary weakness caused by blood loss and the lack of immediate and rapid nutrition due to environmental factors.
But after a night's rest, these guys are still in good spirits. As for the bear people and the northern barbarians who did not participate in the battle, their state is not much better. In fact, if Sean really plans to launch a surprise attack, all the northern barbarians will go to battle as the main force except Cecilia guards, but even so, the number is only about 300.
So at the moment, when Sean decided not to launch a raid but to let the whole army retreat, the rest troops immediately began to withdraw from here.
It was only ten seconds before and after that, and the whole army had already set out.
At this time, it happened that the wolf and others found that Sean's team was evacuating, so they decided to attack. But when the wolf arranged to lead 700 people to attack, Sean and others had evacuated two or three hundred meters away. For fear of losing the trace of Sean and others, the whole army began to march again, which inevitably exacerbated the physical consumption of the whole army again.
When the wolf led the crowd to the terrain, she was surprised to find that it was not a flat terrain, but a highland with cliffs!
For a time, the three strong men looked at each other.
The wolf only hesitated for half a second, and his whole body was full of momentum. The hem of his cloak was constantly swinging by the strong wind. At the next moment, the wolf's right foot stepped fiercely, and the whole person jumped to a height of more than ten meters. Then the left foot stepped in vain, and his body shape rose more than ten meters again. After repeating this twice or three times, the wolf had jumped to the top of the high ground of the cliff and looked coldly ahead.
Two or three hundred meters away from the highland, a small force is rapidly withdrawing to the northwest.
The next second, the wolf quickly swept the surrounding terrain and found that the terrain here was really bad, because it was very hidden. If it weren't for them, these golden giants would have been very sensitive to breath, and the realization was completely on guard, I'm afraid it would be really difficult to find someone hiding here. At the moment, if the wolf wants to continue to order the pursuit, it is necessary to let the troops start to the right and bypass the cliff, but the straight-line distance from Sean's troops will be more than 500 meters.
However, the terrain of the wilderness has never been flat, but there will be many complex terrain, and it is often impossible to move forward in a straight line.
In other words, it is impossible to catch up with Sean's army in a short time. Moreover, if the other party finds the pursuit of wolves and others, I'm afraid that if Sean and others want to escape, the pursuit time will be longer, perhaps for a day or two. But now, the wolf knows that the winter wolf has died, and Rena has broken through the positional defense combined by the three trade points. She may support Sean at any time. At that time, she will really have no chance to kill Sean.
What the wolf was worried about was not what Sean thought. Because of the lack of troops, he was worried about Rena meeting him. The real reason is that she knows that Reina's troops are light cavalry troops. Of course, the movement speed of this kind of troops is faster than that of cavalry. Even in the wild, if she wants to run with all her strength, the infantry she brings will never catch up. Under normal circumstances, if a Lord is in danger and then a cavalry force comes to support, anyway, The Lord must have gone first.
So in fact, what the wolf is really worried about is Sean riding away, so she can't kill Sean.
At the thought of the punishment of the third young master of the nugus family, the wolf shivered.
Soon, the wolf jumped down from the cliff again, then ordered one of the golden strongmen, and said in a deep voice, ”Joe, you hurry back immediately, and then all the others except the wounded and 500 left behind troops I'll leave a mark for you along the way. You must follow up as quickly as possible. ”
Hearing the wolf's decisive arrangement, the golden strongman named Joe was stunned: ”is this necessary?”
”You have heard that Rena has broken through and the winter wolf has been killed, so the other two trade points certainly dare not continue to rush after.” At this point, the wolf has felt a flame burning in his body, ”maybe these two guys may give up chasing and shrink back to their trade point And I have a vague intuition that Sean and Rena must be connected, so they will meet before the morning of the day after tomorrow at the latest. At that time, we can't intercept it only by our strength, but if you can form a siege and support at that time, the situation will be completely different. ”
Hearing what the wolf said, Joe immediately understood.
