Chapter 372: Heavy losses

General Homer was woken up by a flurry of thunder.

When he got up, he still felt dazed, wondering why the weather was suddenly thundering, and why the earth shook when it thundered.

It wasn't until a soldier panicked into the tent to report that he realized it was an enemy attack!

"What about Jerry?!" he was a little angry, what was the matter with Jerry, who was in charge of the night patrol, and why did the soldiers come to report until the enemy attacked here?

"General Jerry is out directing the army to fight!" replied the soldier loudly.

General Homer immediately dressed up and quickly rushed out of the tent with his sword on his back.

As soon as he walked out, he was stunned by the scenery in front of him! The entire camp of the Welsh Brigade was in flames at this time, and tens of thousands of soldiers were in chaos.

Strange black iron balls kept falling from the sky, and after they landed, they exploded continuously, the power was equivalent to about five or six orders of fire-type magic, and it was accompanied by a thunderous sound!

What the hell is this?New magic of the elves?Homer took off the giant sword, held it horizontally in his hand, and swung it at the sky, releasing sword qi one after another.

The sword qi could not hit the elven air force that flew too high, but it was able to split many falling bombs, causing them to explode directly in the air, reducing the casualties in the camp.

"General Homer!!" When Homer attacked the falling bombs with his sword qi to protect the soldiers in the camp, David also hurried over with his troops.

"What about Jerry?" asked Homer, unstoppable.

"Jerry is commanding the battle over there, and I heard that he was accidentally injured by the strange magic of the other party, and he is in first aid at the moment!" David replied, "General, the elves are flying too high! With our attack range, there is nothing we can do about them! But their new magic can hurt us, and now it is preliminarily estimated that at least five or six hundred people have been injured or killed by this strange new magic! What should we do? We must take action!"

"Don't panic!" General Homer thought for a moment, "Immediately reorganize the army and attack with the whole army!" They want to scare us away like this, but there is no door! Since the elves have come to attack at night, the rebels of Sea Dragon City must be about to arrive! Before they merge, we will advance the army, defeat the rebels of Sea Dragon City, and recapture Sea Dragon City!"

"What about these tricky spells of the elves?" said David.

"We can't deal with these guys without a magician!" said General Homer, "but no matter how powerful the magic is, it will run out." There are only more than 500 of them, and at most they will cause us some trouble! Order the sword masters and marksmen in the army to detonate with sword qi and arrow attacks before the opponent's magic lands!"

"Yes!!" David immediately conveyed Homer's order, and after receiving the general's instructions, the army of the Duchy of Hales immediately seized the essentials and began to use sword qi and arrows to detonate the bomb before it landed, avoiding mass casualties.

"General, they have found a way to deal with the bomb so quickly, what should we do?" Some of the elven air forces saw this situation and immediately asked anxiously.

Roald replied disappreciatively: "The purpose of our surprise attack has been achieved, and everyone has stopped throwing bombs." ”

"Do you want to return to the army immediately?" asked the elf next to him.

"No!" Roald shook his head, "we're circling over the enemy to get their attention and make it impossible for them to deal with attacks on the ground!"

"The general is so clever!" the elf next to him laughed, "We are hovering overhead, and the enemy must always keep an eye on the top of their heads to avoid being attacked again." But under the ground of the road ahead, there are countless mines, which can not be seen clearly in the dark night, and the effect is really ...... if you need to pay attention to your head."

Just as this elf said, after being attacked by the night, General Homer was able to immediately reorganize his troops without causing them chaos, and quickly led them directly to the Sea Dragon City, I have to say that his ability is still good! For other generals, in the face of such a surprise attack, I am afraid that they would have already withdrawn with the chaotic army, and they would lose directly for a while! It's just that the lack of intelligence made them not know the existence of mines and bombs at all, and as soon as they escaped from the threat of bombs in the sky, General Homer led the troops into the location where the mine array was.

General Homer took the lead and galloped on his warhorse.

The horse was lucky enough to jump over several mines, but eventually stepped on them.

"Boom!!" The violent explosion directly broke the forelimbs of General Homer's war horse, and it fell to the ground normally.

General Homer was very agile, jumping down the moment his horse fell, and at the same time stood firm on the ground with a tumbling roll.

But something happened to happen to this roll, just past a mine.

"Boom!!" The powerful explosion sent General Homer flying straight into the air.

If it weren't for the fact that he suddenly sensed danger and temporarily held up a shield of divine power, I'm afraid he would have been blown to pieces at this moment!

But even with the shield of divine power, he didn't have such a good time. The power of the mine made him dizzy. But the whole area here was buried with dense mines, and the next moment he accidentally stepped on one.

"Boom, boom, boom......" General Homer didn't know how many mines he stepped on, and the continuous explosions caused his Rank 7 Divine Power Shield to finally shatter. And he himself was hit hard by the backlash of strength, a large amount of blood spilled from his mouth, and the whole person gasped again and again.

He was taken over, but the troops behind him were not so lucky. Not everyone has the strength of General Homer to survive the continuous explosions in the minefield.

Explosions rang out one after another, and countless Principality of Wales soldiers flew into the sky before falling heavily, costing them their lives.

Even David, who has good strength, was unlucky enough to step on two mines in a row, and was directly blown up alive!

"Retreat! Retreat!" General Homer saw this tragic scene, and there was a hint of panic in his heart. The enemy is using mysterious magic, why is there no magic fluctuation at all, which is not noticeable at all?

He jumped with all his might, leaping straight from the minefield to safety, and then shouted his troops to halt their advance.

The troops, who had long been in disarray, were restored to normal here by Homer's voice, quickly turning around.

One soldier immediately sent his mount to Homer, and let him, as a general, ride it, while he ran directly.

General Homer did not refuse, and immediately mounted his horse, and immediately called his troops over and shouted, "What about General David?

"Report!General David was killed by magic!" A soldier immediately came to report, "General Jerry is seriously wounded and is being cared for at the back of the group.

"How many men have we lost?" asked General Homer aloud.

"I can't count the exact number, but I'm afraid there are more than 2,000 dead and wounded!" replied the soldier in a panic.

"Damn!" said General Homer, who finally regretted it, remembering the advice of the old men before he set out. Sure enough, he rashly dispatched troops without intelligence, which made him suffer a lot, "Temporarily withdraw 20 kilometers one after another, and widen the distance between him and the enemy! When we regroup, we will have a battle with them tomorrow!"

"Yes!!"

The troops immediately turned into the rear army, and the rear army became the front army, and they quickly followed General Homer and ran back.

As everyone knows, on the way back, another minefield is waiting for them!
