Chapter 1682: The Ambush

At this time, in Europe.

On the battlefield of Saxony.

Liu Zheng had long since set an ambush on the essential supply route of the Sachsen Army.

However, because the Sachsen Army had encountered attacks from the Longyan Army several times, they had already thought of a Method.

Now, every time they transported supplies, they would send heavy troops to escort them.

On the small path where the Sachsen Army was transporting supplies, the Sachsen officer leading the team this time watched the surroundings vigilantly for any movement.

The general at his side, however, said, "No need to be so nervous. We have changed our route this time, and we are also sending heavy troops. As long as they dare to come, we will make sure they never return!"

The general looked at the Cavalry all around, full of spirit and overflowing with self-confidence.

These Cavalry were his capability; with these Cavalry present, this general did not fear the arrival of the Longyan Army at all.

The people of Saxony were also German, and their Cavalry remained an unrivaled existence.

Moreover, this time, in order to escort the supplies, they were not just bringing this small number of people.

This road had long been filled with ambushes; after being ambushed by the Longyan Army several times, this was the countermeasure they had devised.

They wanted to make the Longyan Army suffer a great loss as well and counter-encircle them!

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of the general's mouth.

Now he was just waiting for the appearance of the Longyan Army.

However, regarding the Sachsen general's overflowing self-confidence, the scouts of the Longyan Army had long been watching clearly from the mountain in the distance.

They had not been discovered by the Sachsen Army at all.

"Are these European soldiers idiots?"

"Marching in the snow and insisting on wearing such flashy clothes—aren't they just exposing their tracks to us?"

A Longyan soldier nearby said, "Who knows the thoughts of these European soldiers? I even heard that the soldiers of Britain all wear uniform red military uniforms."

"They also carry long guns, looking just like red-boiled shrimp soldiers."

The scout couldn't help but laugh at the thought of that image.

Through his Telescope, he watched the marching Sachsen troops, who were about to walk into the trap they had already set.

"Captain, the Sachsen troops are about to walk into the Landmine circle. Should we prepare to launch the attack now?"

The captain did not answer, taking the Telescope from the scout to look at the situation of the Sachsen troops.

"Good heavens, these Sachsen troops are really going all out this time, actually bringing so many Cavalry over."

"With these Cavalry, once our Landmines explode in a moment, not a single one of these Cavalry will survive!"

The captain glared at the person who said this and reprimanded, "What do you know!"

"Those Sachsen troops are our enemies, but these War Horses are not."

"If we can capture them, we will have our own Cavalry."

"But if they get blown up, eating some horse meat isn't a bad choice either," the captain said with a sigh.

All the Longyan soldiers couldn't help but want to laugh, but they couldn't help but think of the taste of horse meat.

They had eaten plenty of War Horse meat and were very familiar with the taste; the meat was chewy, and the texture could be said to be quite good.

In this cold winter, it could be said to be a very good ration.

However, watching the Sachsen transport troops almost entering the ambush circle they had set, the Longyan captain commanding this operation still did not give the order to attack.

The Longyan soldiers nearby were getting a bit impatient and couldn't help but urge, "Captain, give the order."

"We are quite far from the ambush point; it will take some time to rush over."

"Let's move now. Anyway, those blind Sachsen people can't see us; let's just attack!"

But the captain watched the forest on both sides of the road vigilantly. Although it was winter and there was fresh snow, there was no vegetation to provide camouflage.

However, one must be careful in all things. It was precisely because it had just snowed

that the captain was so vigilant, fearing an accident.

"What's the rush? Wait and see. If there is nothing unusual after the Landmines explode, we will attack!"

"Anyway, we've waited this long, so a little more time doesn't matter," the captain said in a low voice.

After hearing this, everyone didn't say another word, all lying on the ground quietly waiting for the explosion of the Landmines.

The Sachsen general did not notice the crisis before him at all, and he stepped forward.

Leading the troops transporting supplies, they continued to advance, yet at this very moment.

Bang! A loud noise!

The sound of a violent explosion erupted instantly, and the Sachsen Cavalry horses were all startled, fleeing in all directions.

This flight was no small matter, triggering all the Landmines the Longyan Army had buried underground.

A series of booming sounds instantly caused the Sachsen troops to lose more than half their number.

The general, who had been full of self-confidence, although he had not yet seen the Longyan Army, was certain after the explosion that they had suffered an enemy attack and immediately roared, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The Sachsen troops who had been lying in ambush in the shadows immediately surged out upon hearing the explosion and the general's voice.

They looked around vigilantly, but did not find a single Longyan soldier!

And the Longyan Army, positioned at a high point, saw this Sachsen ambush force emerge.

The captain couldn't help but laugh, "Good heavens, they are playing the 'mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind' game with us."

"However, we are the ones with the slingshot!"

Seeing that the Sachsen troops were all exposed, the captain's mouth curled up, and he immediately ordered, "Attack, don't let a single person go!"

The Longyan Army immediately rose, grabbed their long guns, and launched the attack from the high ground.

The Longyan Army had ambushed with Infantry and Musketeers, without any Cavalry.

But their momentum in attacking from the high ground was still very fierce, looking just like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain!

At this moment, the ambush by the Saxony troops had already been exposed; the Cavalry, which originally held an absolute crushing advantage over the Captain's Infantry, had completely lost their combat effectiveness in the explosion just now.

Now, only these Saxony Infantry were capable of fighting.

However, when facing the assault of the Dragon Flame Army, the Saxony Infantry, who had long since been terrified, felt a massive shadow rise in their hearts.

They had truly been shattered by the Dragon Flame Army.

As the Dragon Flame Army charged in, the Saxony Infantry, having lost their absolute advantage, also had their psychological defenses collapsed; seeing the Dragon Flame Army slaughtering their way down, they immediately fled in panic.

That Saxony General, who had narrowly escaped death, immediately turned his horse around and fled in another direction.

Under a wave of attacks from the Dragon Flame Army, these Saxony troops, who had originally come to counter-encircle them but ended up being encircled by the Dragon Flame Army instead, were either dead or fleeing.

They had absolutely no ability to resist.

After the Dragon Flame Army Captain achieved victory, he had completely lost his thirst for victory.

Watching the Saxony General fleeing at high speed, the Captain sighed; facing such opponents, they did not even have a single person injured—such a battle was simply too boring.

Such opponents truly made it impossible for them to muster any fighting spirit.

The Dragon Flame Army soon brought the fruits of their victory back to the military camp.
