Chapter 60 Summary after the War

Garris did not stay on the battlefield for too long, but returned to the study to sort out today's situation.

After all, not being arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat is the way to go in the long run.

Originally, Garris planned to hold a post-war summary meeting with John, Simon, and Pudock to analyze the reasons for the victory, and then summarize the shortcomings and where they were not in place.

But as soon as they saw Simon and the others' fanatical devotion to him, they knew that they couldn't have a good conversation until the passion in their hearts faded.

Instead of listening to Simon's flattery, it's better to be alone and think about why you can win so easily and how the other party can lose so cleanly, so as to sum up experience and avoid similar mistakes.

First of all, Eric underestimated the enemy. Summer noon in Jordan was not suitable for marching at all. Walking even a few miles under the scorching sun would consume a lot of physical energy of the army.

As for Garris and the others, they were just waiting for work, relatively speaking, there was almost no physical loss.

Secondly, when Eric led his army to march, he probably did not expect that the enemy he faced would fly the King of Jerusalem's flag.

Relying on his superhuman vision, Garris naturally observed some situations. When the soldiers saw the flag of the King of Jerusalem, many of them were slightly shaken.

It can be seen that even in the Middle Ages, not grasping the great cause and not letting soldiers understand why they are fighting will also cause the soldiers' will to fight to waver. Eric obviously ignored this.

Secondly, the consequences of the duel between Garris and Eric, coupled with the subsequent act of killing horses with a sword throw, caused an extremely oppressive psychological impact on the enemy soldiers.

The previous series of events paved the way for the subsequent charge of the Five Knights.

The knight's charge tactics have been summarized in a lot of experience in Jerusalem over the past few decades. One of the most important ones is that the significance of the knight's charge is not to cause many casualties, but to suppress the enemy and disperse them. Its will is pursuit.

To put it simply, the main effect of the knight's charge is still to damage morale and force the enemy's formation to collapse.

After being weakened three times in a row due to lack of physical strength, lack of justice, and being frightened by Garris, Eric's soldiers did not dare to resist even when faced with the charge of five knights. Instead, they split into two halves.

This gave the subsequent infantry charge the necessary conditions to make the final decision.

It can be seen that in a medieval battlefield environment, it is more efficient to defeat the enemy's morale than to kill a large number of enemy troops.

The reason for this, based on Garris's crude military knowledge analysis, is probably that the feudal armies of this era lacked both organization and understanding of why they were fighting.

As a result, compared to the health bar, the morale bar of medieval feudal armies may be horribly short.

The summary of these knowledge and experiences was carefully compiled by Gellis and recorded in writing. I hope that I can continue to use practice to prove and correct it in the future, so as to write a military book.

So that Puldock and the others can still fight and win alone after breaking away from Garris.

After all, Garris is incapable of being multi-talented and cannot appear in multiple places at the same time. In the future, he must have a team of high-quality officers.

After completing this series of summaries, Garris stretched himself. Today's battle was quite easy for him.

He just slashed with one sword and then threw another sword.

"Then the next step is to deal with Alhadi Town and find a way to deal with Leonard's attention."

One can imagine how angry and frustrated Leonard, the old man, would be when he realized that his entire army of two hundred men had been lost in Alhadi Town.

At the same time, outside the compound, the scorching sun above the soldiers' heads gradually set to the west. The new soldiers under Puldock have already cleared the battlefield.

To be honest, few people actually shed blood in this battle.

On Garris's side, no one was dead, and only five people were injured in total. Among them, two unlucky ones were slightly injured after tripping over themselves.

As for the enemy troops on Eric's side, their morale had almost collapsed before the fighting started. Seeing that the situation was not good, they all dropped their weapons and raised their hands without saying a word.

Except for some guys who were chopped up by Garris's stupid head, most of them survived with their beards and tails intact.

And these people who survived had begun to look at Garris in a subtle way.

Previously, Gehrys claimed to be the prophet, the Son, and the Messiah, but they did not believe it.

Eric then accused Gareth of being a false prophet and a false saint, claiming to be the Messiah, and they quite agreed.

But, the result?

Garris didn't do anything. He just said, "The corpse of the other party is talking." Eric's head rolled down easily. This is not a miracle. What is a miracle?

Humans are afraid of the unknown.

In their minds, Gareth's actions were still regarded as witchcraft or the devil's work.

But which one of them dares to jump out and accuse and insult?

I didn’t see that guy with no eyes before. Just because he said a few words, Garris stabbed the horse to death from a distance of thirty meters. Now he is being trained like a dog by Garris.

Moreover, what if, what if Gareth is really the Son of God?

Oh my god...are these people actually enemies of the Holy Son?

Just thinking about this possibility, the captured soldiers could not help but shrink their necks, and tried to ask the recruits who captured them on the side about Garris.

Then, he was shocked and brainwashed by the series of Frank's old farmer's miracles.

"Really! Believe me, the Holy Son can grab three knives by himself! He rushes into the Bedouin crowd and starts killing!"

"Three, three?"

"Yes, I still have a handful in my mouth!"

A recruit vividly demonstrated how one person can use three knives at the same time. He opened his mouth wide and looked very funny.

"Don't believe him, this guy is talking nonsense. According to the company commander, Lord Garris was clearly standing still, grabbing the arrows shot by the Bedouin with his bare hands, throwing them back with his backhand and shooting them through. The throats of those Bedouins!”

Another recruit started to perform, trying to demonstrate how humans can catch an arrow flying in the air.

"Ha... what are you talking about? When the Holy Son went to Monterey Village, he kicked seven people in an instant and knocked away seven people! I was one of them!"

A young man from the village of Monterey seemed very proud because he witnessed it with his own eyes and was one of the seven people who were kicked away.

Along with these monster-like remarks, Garris' appearance became confusing in the eyes of these captives.

But one thing is certain, Garris is indeed a being with magical power!
