Chapter 2212: It’s broken, it’s coming for me
The balance of the war began to tilt, the dwarf army was in disarray, and a large-scale rout occurred, which made them despair. This time they were facing cavalry and could not even run away. The war ended at 5 pm. Looking around, the plain was full of corpses of dwarf soldiers, with a mixture of blood and burnt smells, like a Shura battlefield.
Of the 60 dwarf soldiers, more than 47 died in this battle today, and the rest managed to escape. Only less than 5 men were left in the Ram Cavalry Regiment, with more than half killed, but not a single Ram Cavalry soldier fled.
After the ram cavalry retreated, their own beast cavalry chased them and found the black dragon Midis blocking the way, so all the beast cavalry stopped chasing. Xiao received the battle report that there were still 25 beast cavalry left. After cleaning the battlefield, they gathered more than 1 war beasts whose masters had died, and the 4 soldiers who had stayed in the city before. In this way, the maximum number of beast cavalry could reach 26.
Spring Iron Sheep and the Ram Cavalry Regiment withdrew together. Su Xiao was not worried that the other side would gather dwarf soldiers again. Without 10 Ram Cavalry, it was not difficult to deal with them. The breach leading to Peru had been opened, and things would be much simpler afterwards. They would integrate their forces as quickly as possible and invade Peru.
Although the situation in Shadu seems unstable, it should not be a big deal. This batch of war beasts are on loan, not conscripted, which explains a lot of problems.
The beast cavalry was successfully replenished to 29. While the soldiers were resting, Su Xiao sent out high-ranking officers such as Oss to take 1 beast cavalry to deal with materials. They went to the nearby fortress city of their own to sell the captured armor, shields, etc., and replenished a large amount of marching supplies.
Before dawn, Su Xiao assembled 29 beast cavalry, took some portable food and fresh water, and marched towards the Kingdom of Peru.
Chadou, Rosette Palace.
"Chisha, what do you think about Kukulin's situation? The Kingdom's Shield, Spring Iron Sheep, is not easy to deal with. If Kukulin loses, Uno will take back all military power from him." The Tsar looked much better, and the queen serving behind him was helping him comb his short hair.
A night crow flew into the bedroom. The Tsar's eyes lit up and he walked forward barefoot. As the night crow spit out the gizzard, the Tsar clenched his fists and said, "We have already invaded Peru. It turned out that it was right to loan 30 war beasts to Kukulin."
Soon, a guard came to the palace and reported the news to the Tsar. The Tsar's face suddenly became very ugly and pale.
"Quick! Go and call the high priest and the prime minister immediately." The Tsar said quickly to his guards.
Prime Minister Carlos received the notification from the guards. The beautiful snake chuckled and walked towards the palace.
"Haha~ Is the little emperor going to take action in the palace? I thought he would ask my sister to come over." Carlos had naturally guessed that if the Tsar really wanted to take power, he would definitely not let her live. When Kukulin Baiye defeated Spring Iron Sheep, that would be the time to take action against her.
When Carolus entered the Rose Palace and saw Uno who was summoned with her, she knew that things were not that simple and something serious must have happened. As for the Tsar's desire to kill her and Uno together and "release the military power with a cup of wine", that was completely impossible.
Inside the palace, Uno and Carlos saw the Tsar with a bad look on his face and knew that something bad was going to happen.
"Cukulin has already invaded the territory of the Kingdom of Peru." The Tsar told them the news as soon as he came up.
Uno and Carlos did not respond, because if there was only this one message, they would not be here together.
The Tsar took a breath, and said with a still grim expression: "This evening, the 200,000-strong army led by the Grand Commander Niposo was completely wiped out, and Niposo also died on the battlefield."
"How many enemies are left?" Uno and Carlos looked unhappy when they heard the news. They no longer wanted to fight each other. Uno asked hurriedly. If Lin Jiu's side also suffered heavy losses in this battle, he would suggest sending troops decisively to continue to encircle and kill this legion.
Having such a powerful army near Shadu is a very dangerous thing for both the Tsar and Carlos and others.
The problem lies in the casualties. The Tsar looked pale and said weakly: "There are only about 40,000 of the 50,000 Ram Cavalry Regiment left."
The three of them were silent for a moment. This record was even more outrageous than that of Kukulin Baiye. You are so good at fighting, why don't you lead troops to fight at the border? If you do that, Kukulin Baiye might not be able to enter the territory of the Kingdom of Peru. Why the hell are you running to our Shadu area?
"No matter what, we have to mobilize troops to continue annihilating the enemy." Carlos said.
"Yes."
"Let's not notify Kukulin yet, let him attack the Kingdom of Peru with peace of mind." The Tsar decided immediately. Uno and Carlos both agreed. After all, Su Xiao now has nearly 300,000 beast cavalry troops who have experienced the hardships of war.
If Su Xiao was informed about the Ram Cavalry Regiment in the territory, and Su Xiao came to "serve the king", then the three of them would be in trouble. Su Xiao left Shadu because his subordinates had no power at all, but if he came back to "serve the king", who knows if anyone under his command would want him to "wear the yellow robe".
The current Tsar's lineage was a rebellion, and he was wise not to learn from the real world's Zhao Guanjia who emphasized culture over military power. But he would never bet on Su Xiao's loyalty.
Divine Light City.
Su Xiao is here again! Black smoke rose in Shenguang City. This city was too weak to resist. It surrendered before he could even use his full strength. The last time he came, he attacked for quite a while.
“Kukulin… no, no, no, I’m the Grand Commander of White Night from the Sand Flame Kingdom. I’m the lord of the City of Divine Light. I beg you to spare these civilians. As a thank you for sparing them, I’m willing to give you everything in the city.” An old dwarf in gorgeous clothes bowed his body, his hands trembling. Although he had been in power for many years, this was the first time he had seen such a ferocious Grand Commander and the Sand Flame army.
"Go and tell the King of Peru to hand over the God of Growing."
"what?"
The dwarf city lord was stunned for a moment. When he realized what was happening, Su Xiao had led his army around Shenguang City and continued to march into Peru, ignoring the civilians in the city.
God of Maosheng: Oh no, it’s coming for me!
The uneven hills were connected to each other, and from a distance the low vegetation on them looked like a fungus blanket. The continuous mountain range in front of them almost divided the Kingdom of Peru. After passing the Hammerfall Mountains, it meant that Su Xiao had broken through the border of Peru and entered the interior of the Kingdom of Peru.
Spring Iron Sheep received the news from Shenguan City and thought to himself, "As expected." He wondered why the God of Maosheng was so scared that he even moved the broken statue to the battlefield. It turned out that the enemy was coming for him.
To be honest, in the original novel, if Su Xiao hadn't accidentally wandered around Gaoshan City, Spring Steel Sheep might have put the God of Growing Life in a cage and sent it to Su Xiao when he was in Shijian City. This is no longer a matter of shame. If he still cares about face, not to mention shame, the country will be embarrassed.
