Chapter 426: Change
Perhaps he also felt like he was being a bit too aggressive, Fairenton slowly added, “The situation we are facing aren’t you guy’s fault; it is the Military Headquarter that made the incorrect decisions. Therefore, don’t be too harsh on yourselves. Make sure that you all protect this command center.”
As he finished saying that and was about to walk out, one mid-aged man beside him suddenly said, “Junior Brother, since you are the Head Commander of this troop, you shouldn’t fight at a time like this. Let me help you.”
A thankful expression appeared on Fairenton’s face, but he still shook his head and said, “Their most powerful warrior, the King of Chambord, hasn’t shown himself yet. Please maintain your peak state and be ready for him.”
“Is this Alexander really that powerful?” the other mid-aged man asked.
“He is really powerful. He is able to defeat me with one strike, so he must be very close to the realm of Moon-Class. Two Senior Brothers, please don’t underestimate him,” Fairenton said.
“Since this is the case, we will wait for him,” the two mid-aged men respected this Junior Brother of theirs, and they listened to his words.
“Thanks, Senior Brothers.”
As Fairenton thanked the two mid-aged men and was about to attack, changes occurred again; noises came from the south side of the campsites.
A level 2 Sand Tiger appeared, and the scout on it jumped off and reported as he single-kneeled down, “Your Highness! 3,000 cavaliers of Zenit suddenly appeared to the south of us, and they are attacking us from the right!”
“Perfect!” Fairenton laughed as he looked at the south direction and said, “I thought this would happen. Tell the soldiers on the right not to move! Keep up the U-shape formation and trap the enemies! Tell General Dinak who is leading the soldiers in the middle formation to send 10,000 Sand Tiger Cavaliers to destroy these cavaliers of Zenit!”
“As you wish!”
That scout jumped back onto the horse and rushed towards General Dinak. Soon, a team of Sand Tiger Cavaliers separated off from the central formation and charged at the cavaliers of Zenit that newly appeared in the south.
Fairenton’s original plan was disrupted, and he didn’t get the chance to attack those 6,000 cavaliers of Zenit yet. As he was about to, something strange happened to those cavaliers.
After the initial ferociousness, those cavaliers of Zenit lost their momentum. The former No.1 Warrior of Chambord, Lampard, used a lot of his Warrior Energy as well, and the damage he could do significantly diminished. Although the 6,000 cavaliers were still charging forward, their speed was a lot slower.
If this trend continued, even if these 6,000 cavaliers could get through the defense line of Jax, 90% of them would be killed. Also, even if that 10 % of the cavaliers successfully charged through the defense line of Jax, they won’t have the opportunity to enter the city as the soldiers of Jax would chase after them.
“This team of cavaliers is done for…… this Head Commander of Zenit surely treats his soldiers like mud; he is willing to use these 6,000 elite soldiers as bait to buy time……” Fairenton was known for his love for his soldiers; he really did view them as precious human beings. However, after he sighed after the surprise, he thought for a while and commanded, “Pass my order! Circle these cavaliers and don’t kill them yet. They are still useful to me.”
As soon as he said that, another scout rushed towards him.
“Your Highness! The scouts in the desert reported the discovery of another troop of Zenit 2.5 kilometers away. There are 3,000 cavaliers and 10,000 infantrymen. They have a lot of heavy carts with supplies on them, and they are closing in!” that scout reported.
“Great! Continue the monitoring and report back to me when something changes!”
“As you wish!”
After Fairenton sent that scout away, he nodded in satisfaction. From the reports that he got, he gradually understood the plan of Zenit. He looked at the watchtower on the west gate of Dual-Flags City and thought, “Is that man there observing the battle as well? When is he going to move?”
The prince was really concerned about that man. He knew that the King of Chambord would cause a lot of trouble for him. If these two Senior Brothers of his weren’t here today, perhaps history would repeat itself, and this reinforcement of Zenit would easily enter Dual-Flags City just like what happened a few days ago.
“Although I have made several plans today and have the help from these two Senior Brothers, I probably still couldn’t kill the King of Chambord,” he thought.
At this moment, more noises sounded from the west side of the campsites. The flags of Zenit with the two-headed polar bear on them appeared with the dust.
“Your Highness! Cavaliers of Zenit appeared to the west of us! They are charging towards us from the left,” another scout rushed over to report.
“Tell the soldiers on the left not to move! Keep up the U-shape formation and trap the enemies! Tell General Dinak to send another 10,000 Sand Tiger Cavaliers to stop these cavaliers of Zenit!” Fairenton ordered calmly; it seemed like all of this was within his expectations.
“Your Highness, we already sent out 20,000 soldiers. If we continue to split up soldiers from the formation in the middle, there would be less than 20,000 soldiers left! That isn’t a lot of soldiers! If those soldiers of Zenit 2.5 kilometers away merge with these 6,000 cavaliers and attack the middle formation, our soldiers might not be able to fend them off,” a commander beside Fairenton spoke up and expressed his worries.
“Don’t worry. I got it! We know that they already split out 12,000 cavaliers from their legion, and most of the soldiers in [Wolf Teeth Legion] now are infantrymen who have to protect the heavy and slow carts with supplies on them. How could they charge through our defense line?” with a confident smile on his face, he continued, “If all they could do is this, then they are too naive! Even if we only have 10,000 soldiers in the middle formation, as long as they could fend off the enemies for 15 minutes, the formations on the two sides would be able to close in and surround the enemies. By then, all of the reinforcement of Zenit would be trapped and killed in front of Dual-Flags City…… I’m worried that they won’t come!”
“So, this is why Your Highness didn’t move the troops to the east and battle with [Wolf Teeth Legion] head-on,” some of the commanders behind Fairenton realized the prince’s strategy.
The prince nodded and said, “Although our soldiers are brave and ferocious, there are more than 30,000 soldiers in [Wolf Teeth Legion] after all. We could win in a head-on battle, but we would suffer 800 causalities just to kill 1,000 enemies. And if the King of Chambord decided to raid us from behind, we would be in trouble. However, it would be a different situation if we play the defensive game. The reinforcement of Zenit needs to hurry and enter Dual-Flags City, and we could penalize them for this and take it slow. Unlike us, the soldiers of Zenit aren’t used to battling in the desert, and they might not even have the expertise to find water sources. Without solid defense walls and firm structures around them, the reinforcement of Zenit would lose morale in less than a week.”
There were a few things that Fairenton didn’t share.
Since Fei burned the majority of Jax’s food supplies, what they had now could only last all the soldiers two days even though the soldiers were consuming 30% less food. If they had to travel more and raid the enemies, the consumption of food would be too much. Also, with his Senior Brothers from Big Snow Mountain here, he was also planning to lure the King of Chambord out and kill or injure him. If everything went according to plan, he would let the reinforcement from Zenit to get through the defense line, and he would order all the soldiers of Jax to charge forward when Dual-Flags City opened up the gate. If the King of Chambord was tied down by those two Senior Brothers of his, he could even successfully conquer Dual-Flags City today.
“Your Highness, we have already put so many resources to the traps on the west side of Dual-Flags City. What if they decided to go into Dual-Flags City through the gate on the north?” someone asked.
Dual-Flags City only had two gates, one on the west side and one on the north side. The soldiers of Jax had surrounded the city from all three sides except north, and this was a strategy to shake up the minds of the people in Dual-Flags City and try to get them to escape. Even though everyone on the side of Jax knew about this, it would be a dangerous situation if their enemies used this “loophole”.
“The Head Commander of Zenit isn’t stupid, so he won’t do that.”
Fairenton shook his head.
Others might not know about it, but he was hoping that the reinforcement of Zenit would go through the north gate. A ton of magic arrays and magic traps had been set up there, and a few teams of elite soldiers were camping there in secrecy; it would be a hell on earth if their enemies went through that.
“The patience the King of Chambord is exhibiting is spectacular.”
Fairenton frowned and thought, “The King of Chambord isn’t going to make his move? Is he just going to let these 6,000 elite cavaliers die here?” he thought.
It was clear that the 6,000 cavaliers led by Lampard were all surrounded, and they slowed down significantly. Although they didn’t suffer a lot of causalities, it was because that the soldiers of Jax got their orders from Prince Fairenton. If the order changed, these soldiers of Jax could easily destroy these cavaliers of Zenit.
Suddenly, a scout rushed over on a level 2 Sand Tiger.
“Your Highness, that troop of Zenit with a ton of heavy carts was moving fast, but it suddenly stopped moving 500-meters from us!” the scout reported.
“500-meters away?” a light appeared in Fairenton’s eyes as if he thought of something. After he thought for a few seconds, he commanded, “Tell the middle formation to open a small path and let those 6,000 cavaliers get through……”
“Your Highness, this……” the commanders around him were all shocked.
“It is ok. We will let them go through slowly. Even if half of them get through, they would have a hard time entering the city with our men chasing after them. After all, if we aren’t willing to make this sacrifice, how could we lure in the main troop of [Wolf Teeth Legion]?”
Perhaps he also felt like he was being a bit too aggressive, Fairenton slowly added, “The situation we are facing aren’t you guy’s fault; it is the Military Headquarter that made the incorrect decisions. Therefore, don’t be too harsh on yourselves. Make sure that you all protect this command center.”
