Age of Adventure - Chapter 339 THE WARGOD OF THIS GENERATION!

On the other side is Aero of the East, blazing a straight path to the enemy lines, killing anyone in front of him with his Heaven Sword

On the other wing is Lord Quentin moving stably toward the front. In battel lines, this battle line is usually formed before the initial charge.

But the Vanheim forces had managed to caught the Alexander forces unprepared.

As such, they now hold the advantage.

The line formation could not be completed as Aero tore down the middle and the other two flanks is covered by Kyle and Quentin.

They could only do a single line formation before the middle pierced by Aero, the flanks are being pressured by Kyle who is employing a wedge formation

But it is ever changing.

He might change it to strengthen the right flank and which when it broke though the enemy flank, Kyle would then roll up the line, attacking the enemy from the rear.

This current advantage is hold by Vanheim forces all because of Aero planning.

The night before, Aero had already expected that Alexander would execute a night raid. He had correctly deduced the enemy plans of attack

Aero instead wanted to laugh at the naivety of Alexander. It is no surprise that a plan involving fifteen thousand men would remain undetected in the forest.

There is too much room for mistakes, a mistake which Alexander undoubtedly made. Alexander not only lack some foresight; he also lacks information.

If there is one thing that Aero is most proficient in, it is searching for information.

And that is what he stresses most importantly when an army went to war.

An army that moves without any information whatsoever is like walking in a dark road without no torches.

It would easily be destroyed by the enemy.

What enables the wise sovereign and the good general to strike and conquer, and achieve things beyond the reach of ordinary men, is foreknowledge.

He had spies even before the war started. Is it so unbelievable that he also had spies in Alexander ranks?

Even if the spies he had cultivated since his time in Veranis did not give him the information, it is not something that is hard to deduce.

Aero had researched Alexander temperament, his battle strategy, his tendency in wars before he even put the first chess piece on the board.

He could guess that when Kyle did not move his forces, that the generals seeing Kyle like a sitting duck would propose Alexander to attack.

And Alexander who prefers an ambush and minimizing the force he uses to destroy his enemies, would surely choose a night raid.

And driven by the desire to beat back Kyle and solidify his rule over the Plain, there was eighty percent chance that he would attack

That is good enough chance for Aero to bet on it. No, by that time it is no longer a bet. It is a certainty.

Aero had never lost a battle.

It is not because he is supremely intelligent or have some divine moves that could turn loss into victory.

That is what bards and minstrels likes to sing about him.

The truth is simpler. Aero fight the battle when he is confident he could win.

As such, he would win each battle. Because before he even sets his foot into the battlefield, in his mind, he had already won.

As he grew, his tactics and temperament and his way of doing battle had also changed.

Aero, now, has the ability to turns loss into victory, his strategy is ever-changing and his approach of damn if you do, damn if you don’t, in crafting his strategy had made many strategists in Vilajeri continent wary to face this enigma of a man.

Since Aero had expected that Alexander would do a night raid, he of course has his own countermeasures.

He moved his forces down the mountain, crossed the Aether river at the Aether ferry.

But that alone is not enough.

He had expected that the area would be in low visibility and because Alexander was trying to caught Aero army unprepared, he would not deploy mages with powerful magic because such mages would be detected.

As such, Aero could rely on the normal conditions of the mountain.

He uses the low visibility condition to deploy his forces just in front of Alexander forces. As such when the mist had cleared up, the sight of Aero forces in front of them shocked the Alexander forces.

Alexander must have been feeling dismayed and confused when he saw the banner of Vanheim forces soaring high up in front of his forces, unlike at all his plan.

Whoever is first in the field and awaits the coming of the enemy, will be fresh for the fight; whoever is second in the field and has to hasten to battle will arrive exhausted.

Therefore, the clever combatant imposes his will on the enemy, but does not allow the enemy’s will to be imposed on him.

And that is what Aero had done. He subtly led Alexander believed that he has the advantages and move out from the fortress.

Up there, the forces that Alexanders had sent to attack the mountain fortress would find it is empty.

Aero did not only manage to take Alexanders forces by surprise, but he had also split Alexanders other forces, thus rendering Alexander forces to be weakened even further.

Aero himself could not hope more than this. He had come with a thundering momentum, with horses charging in through the plains like some berserkers

Aero reputation is always associated with political acuity and his ability in leading armies to victory is famous all over the continent.

As such, when Aero appeared in the plains and his identity revealed, Alexander forces morale instantly plummeted.

Even before they have clashed, Aero had weakened the enemy even more.

Aero and his forces had taken the Alexanders army so unprepared that they did not even have time to prepare their lines and with arrows falling down upon these people, there is already a gap that the cavalry could pierce through

Aero was riding his white horse across the plain, wearing an eye-catching golden armor leading his men to kill.

His Heaven Sword was unsheathed and he is surrounded by an imposing aura that deters the enemy.

His denouncement of the Alexander forces only added to the morale of his force and weaken the enemies.

The appearance of such a famous person all over the Vilajeri Continent, a person widely acknowledged as the most powerful person under the Heavens, scared the shit out of the adventurers.

Unlike the natives, the adventurers did not want to die and their loyalty to the kingdom is less than the native of this world.

After all, they did not originate from this world and come from the Western Heaven. As such, none of them wanted to die since they could not revive after dying.

They retreated almost immediately when they saw Aero in the distance and run away as fast as they could.

They know better that Aero of the East is simply a monster and his strength is unmatched.

Even from afar, the sword edges gleaming from Aero swinging his sword seems so terrifying.

If its other people, this kind of scene would never have been produced.

But because it is Aero and his reputation that is built upon tens of thousands of dead Vevaian soldiers, this scene is produced.

No one has any desire to try to render merit and gain promotions with Aero coming charging towards them.

With this momentum, Aero horse tore down the lines and his cavalry follow him from behind

The people chanted his name like welcoming the War God of the generation!

With a roar, he broke though the lines and he started slashing left and right. Wherever the Heaven Sword moves, lives were reaped.

The battle raged across the field.
