Chapter 627 629. Only Swords

In less than twenty minutes, seventy people annihilated five hundred people.

When this data came out of the adjutant's mouth, even Marshal Menno Kuhorn, who had experienced a lot and spent his entire life in the military, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

The eyes showed surprise.

He put his hands on the table, looked down at the terrain map, and immediately found the temporary military station that was attacked in the report.

His superb tactical skills were undoubtedly revealed. When he saw this position, he had already thought of nearly six or seven ways to break into the military station.

However, that is only the method of ‘breaking into the military station’ after all.

After all, he still couldn't understand the reason for the opponent's terrifying killing efficiency.

Marshal Nilfgaard lowered his head and stared at the map, asking without looking back.

"Are there traces of magic there? Are there wandering warlocks in that guerrilla group?"

Although the Nilfgaardian army was also trained on how to fight warlocks, those contents were too simple and even crude.

After all, even the Nilfgaard Empire cannot guarantee that each of their soldiers is of high quality and can understand and use the tactical drills used to target magic, so they can only simplify it as much as possible.

It is not impossible if there is a warlock who is good at fighting in that guerrilla group

"I'm afraid not, Marshal." The adjutant said softly.

“We found no traces of magic such as fire, frost, electric shock, etc. in that temporary military station. The trace expert also had equipment used to detect the residue of chaos magic, but that equipment was not used from the beginning to the end. It's all quiet, my lord."

"Only swords."

"Only swords? You want to tell me that it was seventy people who hacked to death one by one our five hundred soldiers who were well-trained and armed with swords?!"

The eyes of the commanders, staff officers, secretaries, and affairs officers at all levels present were attracted at the same time.

The adjutant pursed his lips, stretched out his hand holding the information and handed it to the marshal: "Sir, otherwise you are still on your own."

"Read it out!"

Menno Kuhorn raised his head, looked around at his colleagues whose eyes revealed uneasiness and panic about the unknown, and yelled loudly.

“Read it out loud! Let us all listen. At this critical moment, we must not only concentrate on preparing for the big battle, but also what kind of enemies we must face in the rear!”
< br>The adjutant swallowed and retracted the hand he held out: ".Yes."

"The following records come from the oral accounts of sporadic survivors at the scene."

"According to the description, in Everything was normal in the first half of the night. The temporary military station served as a resting point and supply point on the patrol route, and the scene of coming and going was maintained even at night."

"In the second half of the night, a huge black shadow suddenly burst into the solid wood door of the temporary military station. The sentries on the wall of the military station had no warning."

"Suddenly, the original scattered The more than seventy soldiers in the front yard of the military station were all killed in less than two minutes. The survivor's description of this scene was very vague. I think he may have gone insane, and his description is of reference value."< br>
"It's up to me to judge whether he is insane. Just keep reading!" Marshal Nilfgaard's cold snort made the adjutant nod with difficulty.

“According to the survivors: Everyone is like a pile of butter in front of that black shadow, and their armor and weapons are so fragile that they don’t exist. As long as the black shadow passes by, the warrior Their bodies will be cut open, or they will be knocked away directly. There is also a larger and more terrifying black shadow extending from the hand of the black shadow. As long as it is swept away, everyone within the range will be dispersed instantly. Broken to pieces.”

"After viewing the scene, our trace experts believe that the so-called 'bigger and scarier' black shadow should be a heavy sword-shaped iron block. The scars it caused are very recognizable and have the characteristics of squeezing and crushing. , the various characteristics of lacerations. "

"In other words, it is a 'person' with a weapon," Menno Kuhoun said coldly, "Then why use vague words. 'Black Shadow' refers to him? Is this how the Intelligence Department of the Imperial Military Academy teaches them? "

"When we study, we are required to be as objective as possible and not mixed with personal assumptions. Marshal." The adjutant defended himself and his alma mater.

"And that's exactly what I did. In this dictation, maybe it was because of the poor fire conditions at the time, maybe because of the mental problem of the person who was dictating it, or maybe it was because of that thing 'It's too fast. In short, the narrator is still unwilling to admit that the shadow is human. He himself can't give any description of the shadow's appearance."

The marshal nodded, accepting this statement. .

"So based on what we know about the monsters in the north, is there anything that fits the description of this 'thing'?"

"Trolls once had records of cooperating with humans to build bridges, but they moved slowly. Female monsters, goat horns Demons and so on do meet the description of the power, but these things cannot cooperate with people, nor can they use sword-shaped iron blocks."

That is, no. At least not among the types of monsters known to humans.

Menno Kuhorn and many of the commanders present have determined that the ‘black shadow’ is a human being, a human being who is so strong that it exceeds common sense.

“Not only is the strength beyond ordinary people, but several survivors also pointed out that they saw the black shadow jumping back and forth on the two-story roof of the temporary military station many times, flexibly and quickly. The soldiers wanted to rely on the building Due to the terrain, the measures to deal with him with bows and crossbows were thwarted."

Menno Kuhorn said coldly: "Even ordinary soldiers have some ideas and countermeasures in the desperate battle. Where are the management we left at the temporary military station? Where are the commanders? They just stood there and watched the show. "

The adjutant turned the information back two pages: "The management of the temporary military station has proven their loyalty and bravery, Lord Marshal"

"The five commanders thought in turn. It was necessary to establish a chain of command, improve the organization of the soldiers present, and use calm and rational tactics to deal with the enemy. In fact, they had already separated the sword and shield troops, long-range troops, and polearm troops to perform their respective duties. "

Hearing this, the marshal's tone became a little calmer: "Under the chaos, the effect is not bad. "

". No effect, Lord Marshal "< br>


"Often in less than a minute after the order is issued, the current commander's position will be suddenly discovered by the enemy, and then he will be raided and killed by the black shadow. Until all five officers are killed in the line of duty, there will no longer be officers of sufficient rank present. existence, the construction of the chain of command was abandoned."

"After that, seventy soldiers wearing full armor began to enter the field, relying on strict formations and flexible small battle formations. The soldiers who encircled and suppressed us. The soldiers who had lost their organization and command had lost all their courage at this time."

"A great rout began, and the enemy drove our troops away like pigs. The soldiers drove to the place where they thought it was easy to kill, and then they started to take action. "

"They were well-trained and well-organized, and they did not give any chance to the broken soldiers and stragglers. The depots were full of despair. Panic-stricken corpses, bleeding, wailing and screaming. "

"The survivors were scattered within a five-kilometer radius of the temporary military station. They were all frightened and went crazy. They forced themselves to wear armor and surrounded the wall of the military station. When we found them, they usually had a broken leg or arm."

"They dragged these broken limbs and fled across the border for a whole night."
