He did not know whether his plan and the plans of Chancellor aligned with each other.
Because knowing Aero, he might have some other secret plans. But he could only stick with the plans that he has and not moved based on emotions.
'Attack them!' Both Quentin and Kyle shouted toward their soldiers. All around one could hardly make sense of the scenes.
Battlefields are always chaotic, and none of the combatants could control the entire situation.
Their own fates, as well as that of the comrades around them, were usually used to judge the performance of the entire army: if the soldiers around them charged forward valiantly, it meant that victory was at hand; but if they were constantly being cut down, it meant that the army was faring very badly.
And right now, to the eyes of Veranis soldiers, their comrade is being cut down and the soldiers of Vanheim is charging forward valiantly like they were reveling in the bloodshed.
As such, they could hardly keep their morale up.
No matter how hard the commander yelled at his army to not run away, and even though their commander executed who deserted, people still deserted.
And the commander could not kill all of his soldiers. The entire army crumbled with one death. Aero probably had expected this.
Eyes on the prize, he had said before.
The prize is the plains of Ethylred.
And how to get that price?
Take Alexander head and they would get the prize.
It is simple. Aero always made complicated schemes but the completion of his scheme is usually solved by one simple solution.
The scheme also could work as a smokescreen to achieve one simple objective that would make him win all of it.
Aero recognize that if he takes the King head, everything would fall into place.
And since he has the ability, form the beginning, there is only one target in his mind. It is not those generals and it is not the soldiers.
It is Alexander and Alexander alone was his target.
Right now on the other side of the river, opposite or Aero, Veranis army is routing as the officers from the frontline retreated back and ordered them to regroup.
The personal impressions of the soldiers and officers who had just retreated back from the frontline usually caused them to fail to understand why their commander wanted to regroup.
It took just a little provocation, for example, for someone to trip or if the orderly to run a little faster, to spark off an unexpected rout.
And with Kyle announcing the death of the King, it did not need someone to trip to spark off a rout.
The news alone had shaken the mental of the army.
The soldiers in this unit would stand behind the battlefield and could observe the entire proceeding like the commander.
During a retreat, they would not be distraught and panic, thereby giving a huge consolation to the soldiers who had actually taken part in the battle.
The theory also meant that if it was the enemy that was routing, one should expend every effort to give chase.
Everyone usually overlooked the fact that the number of casualties on a battlefield was usually smaller than imagined; no combatant would willingly give up his or her life when the enemy was trying to slay him or her.
When chasing down a routing enemy, this concept was not applicable.
The chasing party could put in all its effort in attacking and cut down their enemies from behind. It was the part of a battle whereby one party could kill the most enemies.
This optimal opportunity would only be open for a short while.
After it had past, the enemy would either be too far to chase down or have regrouped to fight to their deaths.
The party that was originally winning could be defeated by the fleeing enemy who had regrouped; it was not unprecedented.
As such, Kyle first action was to hold his entire army back to prevent them to give chase mindlessly.
He then dispatched individual units to start giving chase. And his unit is not conventional unit. Mags is known for large area of effect magic
their attack could affect many people with one spell. Of course, if there are high level warriors in the army, it would be slightly difficult.
But right now, they are retreating. As such, this is not hard at all for him.
He forms three lead units, each a thousand strong, and they were to advance swiftly on horseback.
They were not allowed to stop and attack even if they passed their enemies by; their role was to quickly reach the pre-determined second defense line and to turn back only after they did so, thereby cutting off the routers.
The other units, each a thousand strong as well, were divided into two waves, and they set off at different timings, one after the other to give chase at a steady pace.
These units formed a huge encirclement around their enemies and were to slay as many foes as they could.
Kyle is now showing the tactical brilliance that he had not managed to show before. His ability in directing battle was overshadowed by Aero explosive feat
But the only reason why Aero was fine with the plan of him rushing to the front is because he knows Kyle would be able to handle the back
Kyle look at the battlefield and he nodded to himself
He could already imagine that his tactic would work perfectly
He could not control the fact that there would definitely be a group of enemy soldiers that managed to escape from the encirclement before it was fully formed.
But that is alright for him
Even though they were routing, the enemy troops still had a numerical advantage, and by letting this group off, it would instead aid his soldiers in wiping out the remaining foes.
On the other side of the river, the cavalry is already near Aero. Aero was not afraid and neither was he shocked.
He saw Antonius riding toward shim and he knows that his killing intent while it is still present, it would not be enough to cut down all of this soldiers.
But if he killed a few thousands more, he would be able to regain back the Killing Intent. After using the Slashing through life and Death, the effect was that he become tired
This tiredness is not negated by the Curse of the Styx. It is like the tiredness of the soul that affects the body
As such, he is tired right now. One might have though, if he is tried how could he still have the energy to fight around tens of thousands of people?
But he still has another trump card.
And that is the Demonic Devil Energy Drain.
He runs toward the charge, his sword thrusted forward. Like lightning flashing, a white sword light pierces the head of the horses.
The body of the horses run forward as its head flew into the air before its body crashing a few feet forward.
Aero sheathe his sword, leap into the air and then with his palm capture the head of the soldiers that was flung from the horse.
Aero then drain that person energy so much so that the soldier become shriveled in just a few second and Aero could feel a stream of energy entering his body
This kind of skill is very demonic since it absorbs people life force.
If Aero uses this kind of skill in normal setting, he might be hunted by some Paladins or some holy orders
A sucking power appears around him. Aero held out his palm forward and the person that is on the direction of his palm were pulled toward him
Aero throws the shriveled body of the soldier he caught before and replenish his health again.
