On the back of the monster, Azer gathered sand into a tower, facing the desert wind, looking into the distance.

According to the scout's report not long ago, there were already large-scale traces of sand thieves less than twenty miles ahead. The number of these sand thieves was huge. The scout could not see the boundary on the ground. The sand eagle saw it clearly in the sky but could not describe it clearly to the owner.

In short, there are endless sand thieves and they cannot judge the number of people at all.

Faced with this size of sand thieves, the scout was simply unable to get close to it, so from Azer's perspective, he only knew that the enemy was coming, but he had no way of knowing the specific arrangement.

This is also the main reason why Zelas completely "distributed" the huge number of sand thieves. He knew very well that the organization of sand thieves under his command was not good and could not achieve hidden marching traces. Instead of hiding, it is better to openly put on an open position. Even if Azer discovered it first, he could at most see some incompetent peripheral products.

If it is possible, these loosely structured sand thieves will become Zelas' biggest bait. If Azer really attacks with all his strength, it will fall into Zelas's calculations.

After receiving the news, Azer was indeed hesitant. According to Rekton, the sand thieves under Zelas were in a hurry to fight. As long as they went head-on and took the initiative, they would easily collapse on the spot. Therefore, at this time, they should gather teams and give the other party a blow.

But... the time is not very suitable now.

It is almost dusk. If the battle begins at this time, it will not take long. When the sky is completely dark, the combat power of both sides will be greatly reduced, and the result of the battle will be unpredictable.

So, even if the sudden attack on the other party could cause good damage at this time, Azer still endured it.

A small impatience will cause trouble. Although Shurima does not have this proverb, Azer now knows this truth very well.

After giving orders, the Duman Behemoth finally stopped slowly under the control of the rider. Under the command of grassroots officers, the entire team began to turn to the cliff near the Akara Mountains, and based on the cliffs, they formed a temporary camp.

As for Azel himself, he changed shifts with Nathers and Recton and personally took on the alert task. In a temporary camp with dense crowds, night raids often cause shocking damage. In order to prevent night raids, Azel must be vigilant and take one hundred thousand cautions.

Similar to Azer, Zelas did not choose to continue to march.

Azer was worried that night battle would bring unnecessary casualties, and in Zelas's view, his side was completely unable to fight at night. Although the sand thieves were not blind, the sand thieves would completely lose command in the dark conditions and even become trouble for their side. For the sake of safety, Zelas also issued an order to repair the site.

However, unlike the dense camps in Azer, the camp structure of Zelas is scattered and the defense is lax. Although light and dark sentries were prepared at the entrance of the temporary camp in accordance with the rules, it was obvious that most of these sentries were good. Even though they knew that the battle might break out at any time, their work attitude was still mainly fooled.

As a result, he cheated his life after some fooling around.

Azer led his most elite emperor guards. Taking advantage of the night's cover, the team quickly approached the outermost camp and then officially began to set fire.

If there are too many enemies, it is difficult to achieve better results without using some extraordinary means.

The flames quickly burned up, and the confused sand thieves never expected to be attacked suddenly at this time. In fact, since following Zelas, although these sand thieves have been in battle for a long time, most of them participated in the siege as cannon fodder or supervising teams, or they either swept through civilians on a large scale on a large scale. They had never experienced the real even-match field battle.

This directly leads to the mental slackness of most sand thieves. In their perception, they are completely safe after camping at night!

When the flames burned and began to spread rapidly, the soldiers were awakened from their dreams, but it was too late to wake up at this time. Even if they struggled hard, it would be difficult to escape the flames. Under the smoke and fire, large tracts of sand thieves fell into the beating tongues of flames.

The Emperor Guards under Azir gave cheers. They raised their weapons high and praised His Majesty Azir's wisdom. Instead, they gathered sand to form a tower and observed the fire from a high place. They felt something was wrong everywhere.

Although it was covered by thick smoke, Azer found that the flame was spreading horizontally in front of him. If you look far away, although there was thick smoke, there was no trace of the fire...

how so?

The camp ahead was lit, but the camp behind was quiet. No matter how you look at it, there is a problem!

Azir, who was hesitant in his heart, did not continue to pursue the scattered thief in the end. Without knowing Zelas's plan, he did not want to continue to expand the results of the battle, because he was still greedy for me at this time, and he could only be defeated by a counterattack the next moment!

Although Azer's confidant did not understand what the Emperor was saying, he still followed the order and chose to withdraw his troops, as if thousands of people were marching in the night for nearly twenty miles, just to light a cigarette...

With Azer's departure, the desert fell into silence again. Although the camp ahead was full of wailing wounded people, in the camp behind, Zelas absolutely forbidden to provide any rescue in any situation.

"This is our chance." Seeing the flames gradually fading away, Zelas was also helpless, "It's a pity that the timid pseudo-emperor did not give me this chance at all."

In fact, the loose formation and the worst military discipline vanguard were the bait prepared by Zelas for Azil. As long as the opponent swallowed this bait and planned to rely on the defeated soldiers to fight back, he would find that Zelas had long been guarding against these sand thieves with poor military discipline, and was always ready to "crumble the fleeing sand thieves and Azil together."

Unfortunately, Azir carefully chose to stop when he saw the situation. He did not choose to cover up the killing on the spot while the soldiers in front were collapsed, otherwise he would fall directly into Azir's trap!

It seemed like a smart swimming fish. Azel "eats" Zelas' bait, but did not pay any substantial price. The greedy desert emperor retreated in time, let Zelas stand on the wall, waiting for Azel's plan to fall into the encirclement to completely bankrupt.

However, for Zelas, this small loss is not a problem at all...
