Chapter 235 Captured
"what is going on?!"

Earl Shilin asked loudly, but no one could answer him.

There was no way. In fact, "Shilin Port" had never fought such a large-scale war, and had never had a general commanding so many people. Their previous battles were all small-scale, and having a few thousand people was already the limit.

What's more, the situation of these 10,000 people this time is very complicated. It is very difficult to command a bunch of mercenaries who fight on their own. The command system of the entire army can be said to be in chaos.

In this situation, anything could happen. Before the camp was attacked, several mercenary teams even started fighting because they had a grudge against each other. When they met this time, both sides directly set up their positions and started fighting on the spot.

As for the other mercenaries, they are naturally happy to watch the fun. They will not try to stop it. If they do, they will not get more money and may even be beaten up by both sides. No one will do such a thankless task. Isn't it more pleasant to watch the show from the sidelines than to get involved?

So, when the people from "Shilingang" rushed over, both sides had even lost lives in the fight. They were completely bloodthirsty. The onlookers ran away for fear of being affected.

The people from "Shilin Port" went to persuade them to stop fighting, but shouting was obviously useless at this time, so they could only go up to stop it. It turned into a three-way melee. Fortunately, there were many people from "Shilin Port" and they quickly suppressed both sides of the melee.

In the end, the farce resulted in the deaths of more than a dozen people, and no one benefited. Both sides were arranged to set up camp at a great distance from each other.

It can only be said that although these mercenaries are full of martial ethics, they are indeed a group of scattered sand and there is no way to unify and integrate them.

Therefore, after the raiding cavalry brigade and beast herds of the [Blood Oath Alliance] rushed into the chaotic military camp, the degree of chaos among the 10,000-strong "Shilin Port Coalition" can be imagined.

The mercenaries were immediately scattered. After being scattered, they had no organization at all and basically scattered like birds and beasts. No one would stop those terrifying cavalry, and no one would fight with those beasts.

In comparison, the soldiers of "Shilin Port" had some professional ethics. After being dispersed, they still tried hard to regroup.

"Assemble! Assemble! Form a formation!!!"

Although it is difficult to command an army of 10,000, the 4,000 people in "Shilin Port" can still be commanded. They are the armed forces of "Shilin Port" itself and are very familiar with the officers at all levels of "Shilin Port". Naturally, they are much more organized than mercenaries.

The most important thing is that most of them live in "Shilin Port", so they naturally won't abandon Earl Shilin and run away.

"What a rabble! Charge, charge, charge! Disperse them!"

Hellion looked excited. He led the cavalry brigade to kill and charge continuously.

Under the cover of night, the strength of their [Blood Oath Covenant] could be fully unleashed. The cavalry brigade was the sharpest knife that could pierce the enemy's weaknesses. Hellion seized the opportunity very well and defeated the 10,000-strong army with a real blow.

As soon as he saw these 10,000 troops, Hellion had already determined their problem. In fact, this did not require any experience. Anyone who saw the character of these 10,000 troops would understand that these guys were just a mob put together at the last minute.

This finally gave Hellion a soft target. The enemies their cavalry brigade had faced before were all lizardmen, cold lizard knights, giant lizards, and various giant beasts.

To be honest, there is not much advantage and they are unable to exert their power.

But now, facing this group of rabble, they finally found a little feeling again, just like the feeling when they attacked the green lizard group before.

In fact, these chaotic humans were not as good as the green lizards in formation. Although those green lizards were thin, they could still resist after forming a formation. Unlike these mobs in the camp, they could not form any effective resistance at all.

By the time they discovered the cavalry was attacking and were ready to take up arms to resist, it was already too late.

All the scouts they sent out were taken care of by the Chameleon Scouts. This was the main reason why they ended up like this. Without the warning from the scouts, they would naturally be caught off guard.

"They seem to have organized a battle formation!"

Kevin shouted. He saw that the army from "Shilin Port" had been reorganized again. Even some mercenaries had gathered there. The army was regrouping.

"Great! Earl Shilin must be there!"

Seeing this situation, Hai Lien was not anxious or nervous, but happy. This was simply pointing him in the right direction. What was the reason for those people to regroup? There must be some important person there!
"Kill, kill, kill!"

Hellion immediately changed direction and stopped chasing the defeated troops. Instead, he attacked the "Shilin Port" army that was regrouping.

At this time, the large army of Lizardman Undead finally rushed out of the forest. They strangled the fleeing soldiers and surrounded the regrouped "Shilin Port" troops.

The place where the army of "Shilin Port" was stationed was some distance away from the forest. There was a road. Because countless colonies had to go to "Shilin Port" before, everyone walked out of a road together.

The army camped on the side of the road, which made it easier to escape. Many people ran north along the road without looking back, and many ran into the woods. After all, the woods were definitely very restrictive for cavalry, so many people wanted to run into the woods to avoid being chased.

Those who ran into the woods were like sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. The undead lizardmen troops rushed out quickly and strangled them all.

"Ruined"

Listening to the screams coming from all around, Earl Shilin's face turned grim. He realized that the game was over and the enemy's strength was far beyond his expectations. There was something wrong with the intelligence provided by the people from "Carkanni Province" and "Magras Province"!
To be honest, he originally thought that the information provided by the people from the two provinces of "Carkanni Province" and "Magras Province" was already exaggerated, so he directly gathered an army of 10,000, but who would have thought that the information provided by those two provinces was actually conservative!
"My Lord Earl! Let's break out!"

Faced with this situation, everyone obviously didn't want to wait to die here, so someone immediately came up with the idea of breaking out.

The so-called "breakout" is actually just "escape", and they are escaping by abandoning their troops, leaving the main army blocking the way in front, while these people break out and escape with a small part of the elite!

"go!"

Earl Shilin did not hesitate at all. He gave the order directly. As long as the green mountains remain, there will be firewood to burn. If they don't leave now, it will be too late to leave later.

"Go! Protect the Earl and charge out!"

After receiving Earl Shilin's order, everyone sprang into action. After all, no one wanted to be surrounded and killed by the enemy. If they could break out, they would do so as soon as possible. One thing must be said: Earl Shilin, with his status, would likely survive. He still held great value. But how much more valuable were those around him? Would they be spared?

"Boom boom boom!"

The cavalry brigade crashed into the battle formation of the "Shilin Port" army and quickly tore through the weak line of defense like a knife through a piece of paper.

Under such circumstances, it is already very good that the troops of "Shilin Port" can regroup, but it is really wishful thinking to expect them to be able to stop the enemy's offensive.

"Roar!"

The lizardmen roared and surrounded them from all directions. The elite troops of "Stone Forest Port" who were guarding Earl Stone Forest also encountered obstacles.

Their way was blocked by a group of lizardmen undead, and there were more lizardmen undead coming towards them, so many that there was no end in sight. After all, there were more than 10,000 lizardmen undead.

"It's the Necromancer!"

Seeing these lizardman undeads, Earl Shilin's face turned ashen. He regretted it very much. He should have stuck to his own ideas and should not have attacked this "Wangbo Port". These guys dared to establish a [Blood Oath Covenant] on their own, so there must be something real!
No matter how much Earl Shilin regrets, what has happened will not change.

Moreover, no matter how much he regretted it now, he couldn't immediately eliminate those who had supported the attack on "Wangbo Port" before, because everyone was in the same boat now, so they should work together to break out first.

As for those who need to be cleared up and those who should be blamed after breaking out, we must first ensure the purity of the team.

Earl Shilin now seriously suspected that there was a spy among their team, otherwise how could the enemy know their movements so well? They clearly didn't find any scouts at all.

"Capture Earl Shilin!"

"Give up resistance! Surrender and you won't be killed!"

“There will be a huge reward for anyone who captures Earl Shilin alive!

Shouts came one after another, and it was obvious that the human troops had also arrived. They began to attack the hearts of the people, constantly shouting for the people of "Shilin Port" to capture Earl Shilin and hand him over, which would be considered the first merit!
This made Earl Shilin, who was already a little suspicious, feel even more uncomfortable. He glanced at the people around him and everyone looked like a traitor. He always felt that someone would put a rope around him in the next second.

"Forget it, just catch me and claim the reward. We can't escape."

In the end, Earl Shilin played a tactic of retreating in order to advance. He asked everyone to tie him up and claim the reward, hoping to see if anyone would be really tempted.

"Impossible! How could we do such a thing?!"

"That's right! Don't lose heart, Lord Earl. We will definitely be able to fight our way out!"

After hearing what Earl Shilin said, some people immediately offered comfort and encouraged morale. It was obvious that there were still some people who were unwilling to give up and still firmly believed that a miracle would happen today.

This made Earl Shilin very pleased. "Shilin Port" still had enough cohesion and most people were unwilling to betray.

Of course, Earl Shilin also keenly noticed the hesitation of some people. He wrote down these people one by one and would settle accounts with them severely after returning!
"Boom boom boom!"

The reason why Earl Shilin was so confident was that he still had a lot of cards in his hand. He opened several scrolls and released powerful spells to attack the lizardmen undead who were surrounding him.

Several of these magic scrolls were of the fire element. The fire magic dealt high damage, knocking down many lizardmen undead and clearing many obstacles for their breakout route.

However, those lizardmen undead seemed to be endless. As one group fell, another group came up. They had no fear and were not afraid of death. Earl Shilin's magic scroll attack did not actually have the effect he imagined.

If they were facing humans, and a few of his magic scrolls killed hundreds or even tens of thousands of people, the enemy would definitely be intimidated, which would create good conditions for their breakout.

However, these lizardmen undead would not do so. They strictly followed the orders and rushed forward one after another to block the gap.

This situation made Earl Shilin sweat profusely. If he couldn't break out with the power of the magic scroll, then he would be helpless. This magic scroll was very expensive. He was just wasting money. Couldn't he win even with all the money?

No, it’s not a question of winning or losing now, he just wants to break through!
The road ahead was blocked, and the pursuers behind were hot on their heels. After Earl Shilin threw all his magic scrolls, they still couldn't break through the siege and were still surrounded by the lizardmen undead.

The atmosphere became solemn, and Earl Shilin's face became extremely ugly, because he felt that more and more people were looking at him strangely. He didn't know if it was an illusion. Were those people he wanted to settle accounts with already making moves?

Unfortunately, Earl Shilin was destined to be unable to realize his idea. He had no way to settle accounts with anyone because Hellion had already brought a group of animals with him to kill him.

In the clash of elite forces, these elite troops of "Shilin Port" were obviously unable to stop the spearhead troops led by Hellion. There were many masters here, and they quickly defeated the guards of Earl Shilin. Earl Shilin could only watch everything happen in despair.

"Count Shilin, since you have come uninvited, please come with us."

After defeating the elite troops of "Shilin Port", Hellion came to Earl Shilin with a wild smile on his face and said to Earl Shilin, which made Earl Shilin's face darken.

"."

Unfortunately, at this moment, no matter how unhappy he was, Earl Shilin did not dare to express it. Being alive is better than dying.

Earl Shilin said nothing, but followed Hellion obediently. As for his other staff, they were not killed, but were captured alive.

"The Earl of Stone Forest has surrendered! The Earl of Stone Forest has surrendered! Lay down your weapons! Stop fighting! Lay down your weapons! Stop fighting!"

With the capture of Earl Shilin, the battle quickly came to an end. Of course, even if Earl Shilin had not been captured, the battle would have ended.
