18. A new battle begins at dawn

.As time passed, as the fuel was gradually exhausted, the fire in the valley began to gradually weaken. The thick smoke mixed with ashes climbed up the surrounding cliffs under the propelling of heat, and the smell of choking burnt was everywhere.

"The people in the Aimetta Church are really amazing!" Looking at the girls who showed their power at the foot of the mountain, Feili almost fell out of her chin. Less than a hundred female warriors were chasing thousands of enemy troops to chase them! If the men in the Giant Bear Legion could have half the courage of these girls, let alone dealing with Sofia's miscellaneous army, it would be no problem to conquer the Arctic Port.

However, although the scene seemed to be one side to one side, not all the soldiers of the Elf Army scattered and collapsed under the attacks of the raging fire and the girls of the Emeta Church. After escaping from the fire, some Elf Army seemed to have resumed normal command, started to assemble, marshal, and moved to a small slope to start to set up defenses. It can be vaguely seen from the fire that this part of the army had only a few hundred people, but was well-trained and tidy, completely different from the scattered and confusing of other soldiers, and were much more well-equipped. Although the *girls of the Emeta Church were very crazy, they could not chew on this hard bone. A few *girls held their whips and shouted "Invincible in justice", but were all stabbed into meat sauce by swords and spears. Seeing this, the rest quickly turned around and chased other enemies that were easier to deal with.

In order to prevent the enemy from assembling, Feili instructed the snipers arranged on the outside of the battlefield to try to harass several times. Unfortunately, the enemy was very prepared and the snipers always took advantage of it. Instead, they left many corpses and retreated dejectedly.

"It seems that Sofia Leahton is not that easy to deal with, and she refuses to retreat in such a situation. The rest of these may be her core troops, and there is still a tough battle to fight next!" Feiri, who was observing the battle situation on the mountain, handed the telescope to Alan who had been jumping aside for a long time, and then asked the red-robed wizard Fedon, who was following behind, "How is Renee?"

"The main force of the legion has been arranged, but it is probably unrealistic to ask them to attack for a strong attack." Fedon is now serving as an adjutant of Ferry. He was sent to the city of New Demon Sobrey before the war began in Port Emon, but he escaped the nightmare defeat. "As General Charlotte said, if they were asked to attack the enemy, they would usually not even beat the goblins, let alone the famous "ghost rose". Maybe when we hear this name, our soldiers will be weak and turn back together!"

"I haven't expected them to have much courage. Alas, why are the men of Xinnaseriel so useless?" Feili shook her head and looked at the battle situation at the foot of the mountain. At this time, the defeated soldiers of the elves had been driven out of the camp by the brave girls and were running wildly on the way yesterday. From Feili's location, she looked down with a telescope. There were small black dots running around in the snowy fields, as if the nest was filled with water.

"It seems that there is no threat to these enemies." Seeing that the enemy had gone away, and the fire in the canyon was almost extinguished. Feiri put away the telescope and turned to Ferton, "How is the big druid?"

"A magical communication has been sent to Mr. Winnie just now. It is said that everything is ready. I hope we will prepare for the honey for celebration!" Fedon said with a smile, "His more than 300 bears have disturbed the entire Port of Emon. Now it has harmed the city of New Demon Sobrey. I ate several pastry shops two days ago. I wonder what else will I do in the future?"

"As long as we can win this battle, Speaker Zena has firmly held the position of the chief of the war zone, and we can call the entire Xin Naserier's supplies at will. Are you still afraid that you can't afford it?" Anyway, the bears did not grab their heads, and the parliament did not react strongly, so Feili was not dissatisfied with the robbers who were unlucky to eat robbers everywhere. Even before the death row prisoners were shot, they had a beheading meal! Let the bears eat for a few days before the war. It was natural to say that fattening was slaughtered.

"Let them wait for a while, and then attack at dawn!" Feili looked at the ground elves army camp faintly in the firelight, hesitated for a while, and still issued an order to continue waiting.

***

As the sky gradually turned white, the scenery in the canyon gradually became clear. In the faint morning light, yesterday's huge military camp had been covered with thick ashes. Most of the soldiers had escaped without a trace under the whip of the girl. Only a very small part was stranded on a small slope near the camp. Under the command of the commander, they arranged in a tight circular array, and were choked by the remaining smoke and coughed.

Waiting for the arrival of dawn.

At the center of the round formation, Sofia Leahton rode on his horse, his clothes were covered with black marks left by holes and flames, his face and hands were full of burning, as if a dry bark that had cracked and smoked everywhere, looked very embarrassed.

Her iconic green one-eyed eyes were still staring at Yu Huo's unextinguished camp. Although she was reluctant, she still had to admit that this battle had completely failed and she was no longer able to attack the new Demon Sobrey City.

This time, she was commanding her strange subordinates to fight against strange enemies in a strange area, and she should have been very cautious. However, she was deceived by the victory of Port Emon and even immersed in her reputation in the past and did not keep enough vigilance against the enemy, which led to such a bad situation today.

But she cannot retreat yet. As a veteran who has experienced many battles, she knows very well what a terrible thing will happen in a chaotic retreat without a breakdown - the organization collapses, discards equipment, tramples on each other, and attempts to let her comrades die for herself... In the end, it completely collapses and defeats them one by one under the pursuit of the enemy. And this is the hinterland of the enemy, and there is not even a safe place to assemble. Once the army with low quality is broken up, it will be difficult to gather again. Even if it is closed, most of the army cannot fight again because of the loss of weapons and equipment. She must keep an army that is still organized and combative, and wait for an orderly retreat after dawn to avoid annihilation of the entire army.

"When I join the army of Arctic Port, I will definitely come to wash away today's shame! At that time, I will kill all these Naserel people who dare to fight against me. No, this is not enough. They will turn them all into immortal creatures for me to drive..." She was thinking hatefully in her mind about various ways to torture the citizens of the new Demon Sobrey, as if she had completely forgotten the fact that there was no undead mage under her. It was not until her eyes swept to a group of clergy in gray robes, clothes and appearances that were completely different from those of the elves, gods, that she stopped thinking and walked to the most luxuriously dressed among these people.

"Dear Mr. Beckman, do you have any solutions to the current situation?" Sofia lowered his figure rarely and asked in a very polite tone.

The middle-aged man named Beckman stroked the holy emblem of Talona, ​​the goddess of poison and disease, looked at the white snow everywhere, and shook his head regretfully, "I'm sorry, dear Marshal. The weather is too cold now, and my god's power may be difficult to swing. Besides, you have lost almost all the mages just now. In my opinion, it's better to consider how to persevere until dawn!"

"Don't worry about this." Although he had just suffered a great defeat, Sofia was still full of confidence. "Let's go with those misused soldiers. I still have the remaining elite soldiers in my hand," she pointed to her last subordinates. Most of them were private soldiers of the Leahton family and the church knights sent by the Chevrolets Church to Sofia. "It is not realistic to capture the city of Sofia's new demon, but it is absolutely no problem to cover our retreat. If you don't leave now, you just don't want to get separated in the dark."

"But where are you planning to retreat? With such a small amount of troops, you can't defend Port Emon, and all the ships have been demolished during the landing operation!" Beckman asked in confusion.

"We won't go back to Port Emon!" Sofia raised the whip in his hand and pointed to the sky in the north. "If the ship is destroyed, we will go to Port Arctic by land. There are still thousands of soldiers available, and weapons and food should be reserved. After the army there is reorganized, I will definitely go south again. By then, the weather will probably be warmer. You have to worry about the cleaning work of the local indigenous people!"

"If you can succeed, of course it is the best." Beckman still seemed not very confident about the future described by Sofia, but he had no other choice. "Punishing these untouchables who disrespect my god is our duty. We have snatched all kinds of plague materials from the fire. As long as the weather is a little warmer, we can serve the Marshal!"

"That's good. In the future, your religion will definitely be able to be promoted in this land polluted by evil gods!"

Sofia nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, she was about to order the army to change its formation. She lined up and left, but there was a small riot on the periphery, and many soldiers were clamoring. Before she could ask her subordinates, Beckman, who was tall and had good eyesight, shouted at her. "Sir Marshal, look, something rushed over!
