Almighty Lord of Another World

Chapter 849: Retribution

Mokra’s cavalry troops mobilized 30,000 people to pursue the Taranto cavalry who attacked the heavy troops and the rear army, but when they arrived at the main infantry side, the attack had passed almost two days.

There is a sense of speed, and the Mokra people did not expect such a sudden attack, and they lie in ambush deep in the dense forest where the vegetation is lush and impassable. This will make any general who has experienced a lot of battles suffer.

Because the Taranto cavalry seems to be hiding in a place that is extremely unlikely to garrison or pass, it is equivalent to this attacking force being drilled out of a crack in the stone exactly the same!

Now that the situation has reversed, the Mokra army has all turned backwards, ready to return to Roland City to wait for reinforcements and follow-ups. Now the army is in danger of running out of food. Prometheus dare not gamble that the Taranto Empire is not prepared, as long as they are in any one of them. If the city is delayed for three days, the army will collapse without fighting.

If there is no food, the larger the army, the faster it will collapse!

Of course, Prometheus did not completely give up, he ordered the remaining cavalry to go to the four directions and attack any village in Taranto.

Taranto is known for its abundance of food. Almost every family has a lot of food, while local officials and lords and nobles will have more food, which is completely enough for the consumption of Mokra's army.

Moreover, the cavalry troops are not afraid of being besieged. On the Taranto Plain, the cavalry can break through the blockade of the guerrillas, and it is impossible to be gathered and annihilated.

But the people who went to chase the Taranto cavalry returned a message, and Prometheus instantly broke down in cold sweat.

It turned out that the Taranto cavalry did go to Roland City, but they did not attack. Instead, they sent magicians not only to burn the stored grains, but also to blow up the newly cleared passage again. What’s more, this passage was direct. A large part of it was destroyed by the explosion, and if both sides were cleaned up at the same time, it would be impossible to pass without sleep for a month!

In other words, the Mokla army is completely out of food. The only food left is enough for the army to use for three days. It should be eaten with clear soup and water. If it is equipped during the war, it can be completely eaten in less than a day.

At this time, the commanders of the Mokra army were all angry, and the originally good situation was quietly ruined. Everyone did not even see the enemy's face, and was already in a crisis of failure.

"We can't go back to Roland City. We are waiting to die when we go back. We will now spread the troops and attack all the towns and villages of the Taranto directly. Collect all the food that can be collected to ensure that the army can eat it. Let's talk about it."

"That's the only way. But, Master Prometheus, will the Taranto sit and watch us looting and ignore it?"

"Then what do you guys say? Now that we don’t have food reserves, how long can we survive even if we kill the horses? Without rations, we can only be prisoners of the Tarantos! Don’t forget, we just killed them. With their more than 20,000 prisoners, do you think the Taranto will accept our surrender, or will they starve us to death?"

No one talked to the generals around Prometheus. After the city of Roland was captured, the entire Taranto Empire was already as easy as trying to get things. Who would have thought that all of a sudden let the rations be completely different? The possible place was burned completely, and the back road was cut off, and they became people who were about to die.

Prometheus waved his hand, letting the various army leaders lead the team to disperse. The smallest unit also had nearly 5,000 men. As long as they didn’t meet Taranto’s cavalry, they had complete offensive and defensive capabilities and faced the defenses of ordinary villages and towns. The power is more than enough.

Now Mokra's army is scattered all over. It is not like an army that destroys the country at all for their own food. The wild fruits and small animals and birds that can be collected are collected along the way, as if they were fleeing from the famine.

At this time, where did Ivan lead the army? Of course, he was chasing after a Mokra army that had been separated from Roland City.

The leader of this army was the chief culprit in the slaughter of Taranto's prisoners, and the servant leader of the emperor of the Mokra Empire.

This person is not only a close attendant of Emperor Mokla, but also the head of Mokla's intelligence department. This time he was able to capture Roland City. His credit was not small. It was this person who contacted the traitorous earl and used a larger fief and tower. The position of Governor Ranto was the bait, and finally the Count who was also stationed in Roland City secretly passed the Mokra Empire as an internal response, and the poison that caused the entire Roland City to fall was given by this person to the traitorous Count.

The Taranto Empire said that it’s not too big, but it’s really not that small. The Mokra Empire has taken a lot of risk in attacking the Taranto Empire. After all, there are other countries next to the Mokra Empire who are staring at it. If they can’t eat it in the short term. The words of the Taranto Empire ~www.ltnovel.com~ may cause unkind behaviors by neighbors around.

Based on this idea, the commander of the close attendant ordered his direct troops to slaughter the prisoners of Roland City. Because the teams that can be stationed in Roland City are the elite troops of the Taranto Empire, if they are put back, it will not be of any benefit to the Mokra Empire’s rule of this country, and there may be a lot of disobedience from these people. The people under the management of the Kara Empire carried out riots and other activities.

In order to allow the Mokra Empire to receive the Taranto Plain as a stable food rear of the empire as soon as possible, the servant commander directly ordered this sensational slaughter of prisoners.

Prometheus, the commander-in-chief, only knew about this when the operation was halfway through, but it was too late to stop it. The results of half of the slaughter and the whole slaughter are actually the same, that is, the resistance against the Taranto will be very strong in the future, but the deterrence will indeed be very effective.

But Prometheus and the servant commander never imagined that this behavior, which they saw as a normal means of warfare, would make Evan no longer "play soy sauce", but directly participate in this war and become the biggest one. The variables directly caused the Mokra Empire to make strides towards complete failure after many years of preparations!

The corpses of the Taranto captives were still cold, and the retribution came.

Now Prometheus is very worried about the outcome of the army, because in the past, when he was defeated, he could only pay for the entire army to return to his country, but now it is hard to say.

In the unlikely event that the Taranto refused to reconcile in any form because their party slaughtered the prisoners, then the hundreds of thousands of people they led would really have no place to bury them!
