Chapter 1096 (1/2)
The Welz family emblem of the battle dragon heart city.
”What does that mean?!”
”This is something that belongs to you. It has nothing to do with whether you admit it or not.” Archduke ellemans, with his hands on his back, went to the side of the gray pupil boy:
”My father chose me that day because he was worried that you were too impulsive and eager to prove yourself, but... That doesn't mean I have to hold the same view as my father.”
”As the current Archduke of El Mans, I don't think the next successor must also be a decision-maker with absolute reason and calm judgment.” Yuli vilz, who faces Lucian, looks indistinguishable:
”In the face of the next situation, he may also need such characteristics, but he also needs desperate courage and the determination to win by any means.”
Glancing at Lucian, who was completely stunned, Archduke ellemans turned his eyes to another direction:
”Am I right, Lord Loren Turin, Duke of Byrne?”
The black haired wizard who was suddenly ”named” showed a slightly embarrassed smile - he didn't want to get involved in this ”brotherhood and brotherhood”.
But before Loren, Archduke ellemans had finished the embarrassment first.
”Sorry.”
”Huh?”
”The enemy's attack was beyond my judgment. I didn't expect... No, I should have known that rodriya Azor could guess that there would be troops blocking halfway.”
”Don't mention these.” Loren consciously changed the topic: ”how are the casualties of the Flemish Legion? Is the situation serious?”
As soon as the voice fell, Loren noticed a chill in Yuli vilz's eyes.
”If there are casualties... You should have seen it.” Yuli vilz's expression became cold:
”I guessed that the enemy might be prepared for blocking, so all the elite brought from the imperial capital are the rest - more than one tenth of the casualties, close to one fifth.”
”My two deputies, one of whom is the Earl of El Mans, led the guards to be entangled by the enemy in order to protect me during the raid, attracting three times the enemy to buy me enough time.”
”As for the casualties since the start of the war, it is already immeasurable - more than half of the 7000 vanguards have lost. The 30000 dragon heart city soldiers I brought out from my hometown have gone three times today.”
”You should know that our soldiers... Don't have many ways to deal with these enemies who have excellent swordsmanship, tacit cooperation and special strength.”
”There is no other way than to fight in array and give your life.”
Yuli weltz's voice was very flat, but it still made Lauren hear the pain in his voice: ”it is precisely because they fought bravely and bloody battles that they would rather die than retreat; as their Duke, I can stand here alive and talk to you.”
”Otherwise... I may become the second leader of a country killed by the Azores after master corona.”
Dimly, Archduke ellemans's eyes darkened.
Plain words, but aroused the resonance of many people around.
Although more than half a year has passed since the declaration of war, the Azores can be called terrible combat power, which has left a deep shadow in the hearts of the imperial people.
The knight of Byrne, the two handed swordsman of ellemans, the ”black wall” of Saxony... The top combat power of the empire can't get any advantage in the face of Azores Elven warriors, and even rely on ”sneak attack” to win back a little advantage.
Ordinary soldiers have no room to parry in front of Azor long knives... After losing the advantages of close formation, number and terrain, they almost end up being slaughtered by one side.
There's only one way to fight and die.
With countless corpses, pave the way to victory or not disastrous defeat.
