Power and Empire Chapter 194: Long night (1)

My son sincerely thanks Hu Yanhaha who voted for the vote, Tianshi Hongkai...rewarded, four, coins, heart is enough to give a reward, four coins

Dark night, the cold autumn moon hangs in the sky. In the distance, the burning plume of the fire in the fortress of Willis went straight up into the sky. The first: the commander of the line of defense, Helissatus, paced back and forth on the battlements with an anxious face, looking up from time to time to see the beacon fire indicating the direction of the base camp. Three tall bonfires were in the dark. Li is particularly conspicuous, and he is angry when he sees it

When the strong Willis defensive line was set in the afternoon, the white striped flag was hung as a symbol of surrender. The thirteen fort tactics that we thought were unbreakable were destroyed by four in one day. The castle, the Samor army suddenly Explosive powerful tackling ability made the nobles fearful. This completely subverts the previous custom that a castle can last for at least a week. "Raging Flame Demon Army" is now called the Samor by most of the noble armies.

The news that the Nunis Banner who went to rescue was completely destroyed. No more people need to be sent to verify. The Samor Army sent envoys to return the corpse and regimental flag of the Marquis of Nunis in the afternoon. The Marquis of Nunis, who opened his eyes in anger, still maintained the posture when he died, holding the knight sword in both hands, as if Still wanting to wave at the close enemy, an arrow shot through his leg bone, several blood-turning knife marks scratched his throat, forehead and ribs. The corpse was white and stiff because of the blood draining.

In order to let the corpse lie down, the soldier in charge of the coffin stepped on his spine. It can be seen that the Samor army was still merciful and did not cut off his head as usual, at least let him keep it. The last dignity of the nobility is gone, and it can be regarded as the respect for him that will not be surrendered

However, the most elite light infantry flag regiment of the noble army was almost completely destroyed, and the news of the commander's death. Let the already panicked aristocratic army camp look bleak. All eyes were on the third line of defense at once. Who is next to the moldy? After repeated consideration, the Marquis of Duecke put the Tigers of Helisatus on the floor. This is a decision that everyone is satisfied with, except Hesalitus himself

Hold on, hold on! What does Lao Tzu stick to! "Receiving Lisatus's indignant scolding, the thick smoke of the Vierris defense line in the distance seemed to mock the stupid decision of the base camp. His own Tiger Legion had 5,000 people, although most of them were veterans who were brought out when they evacuated from Kyoto. However, the weaponry and military quality cannot be compared to the main Russian flag regiment stationed on the second line of defense. If a second-line unit like yours is required to fight against the elite of Samer. I can’t hold on to even a round, and I don’t know if it is. What do the idiots in the base camp think.

The Samor army did not take action at night, and the fierce battle in the daytime caused the Samor people to lose. Both sides needed the night to heal the wounds, and the smoke was under the fortress of Willis. The Samor camps of the big movies are tiled together, and the dense fire lights are like little stars in the sky. You can't see the end at a glance. It also makes the guards of the fortress in the city feel chilling. Now if someone says that there are only 10,000 Samors. , The angry defender would kick him down and let him count the endless camps of the Samor.

"My lord! The Samor Army sent a messenger to see you!" The messenger ran up with a flustered expression. Helizatus also saw the fortress's suspension bridge. A team of horses appeared under the fire. The number was not large, only about ten. Individual, but the leader turned out to be the captain of the Villaf Banner who has surrendered

"En?" Helisatus looked astonished; he didn't expect it to be Villaf. Obviously, the Samorians saw themselves this time. The possibility of persuading him to surrender is very high. As a colleague, Herisatus treats Villaf. He expressed sympathy for his surrender. As a soldier, Helisatus expressed contempt for Villaf’s surrender. He was silent for a while, and said to the herald, “Tell the Samor people, there’s nothing to talk about. Fortunately, don’t compare me with that coward who is afraid of death!"

Soon, the messenger who was going to answer the call ran up again, lying on the ground with an ugly face, and muttered in a low voice, "They, they said

"What did they say?" Helisatus looked at the herald with swollen eyes, and sternly reprimanded, "You have followed me for hundreds of battles. Are you still afraid of those fears and threats!" Say quickly, don't lose me The face of the Tigers "They said that the adults would agree to meet them." The Herald was pale, and the words paused. "They also said that the adults had better send someone back to the base camp to have a look. Don't be someone else's abandoned son without knowing." .

"Abandoned son? Is it possible that Herissatus' eyebrows jumped uncontrollably. He turned around and looked at the direction of the base camp. The three bright instructions bonfires dazzled like three nails. The bright lights of the base camp in the past are so mysterious. The few soldiers who were burning and patrolling seemed to have disappeared. At a glance, the whole camp was filled with weird silence

"Damn!" Helisatus' eyes reddened, and the gang of *** nobles really left themselves and ran away. They were so loyal to them in vain, and they were treated in such a way. The Marquis of Nice and Villaf who led the army to surrender, the shadows of the two people are in his brain, swirling. Pi Ziping, who was venting to the brave Helisatus at the moment, and his confidence have both left him, and only a blank skin is left.

"Crack!" In the darkness, the gate of the third line of defense Willings fortress slowly opened, the suspension bridge was lowered, and the line of defense commander Jiyoket came to the Samor horse team to pay a military salute. "Herissatus The legion commander announced his surrender to the Samor army and demanded the treatment that the noble prisoners deserve!"

"This is natural!" A fat figure turned out from behind Villaf, and waved to the herald. "It is a great honor for us Samor, that Captain Helisatus can understand things so well. For the nobles who surrendered, we will all follow the rules of prisoners of war in the kingdom, and they will be released after a certain ransom is collected. Their title will not be affected!" Watching a team of well-equipped Samor cavalry rush through the fortress gate, There was a commotion in the Tiger Legion soldiers standing by the city gate waiting to hand in their weapons, Samor Hussar! That's the Samor Hussar! The veterans of the Tiger Legion were sure that they had not admitted their mistakes. The unique heavy armor, the sharp arc-shaped war knife on the waist, and a three-meter long spear and a short crossbow were inserted side by side in the weapon slot. This is exactly the "Reaper" cavalry I encountered in the battle of Toda Fortress

The fat man was riding on the horse, and the night breeze of late autumn blew by his ears. In this pursuit, the Fatty himself served as the commander. Although it was expected that the noble army would abandon Hubor Laban and flee to the north, I did not expect that the Marquis du Aikri would be so straightforward. After the day, he would run away at night. The third line of defense was stationed when the Tigers were inadequate in equipment and strength. The fat man knew that things were going to be bad. He wanted to use the method of "squeezing toothpaste" to drag the elite of the noble army step by step down the mire.

Although the vitality of the aristocratic army was severely injured, it was not to the point where it needed to drag the second-line troops to defend the city. The only explanation was that "Du Aikeli is going to run!" The strong man broke his wrist. It is not tragic, but this is running. This is too neat, and this has to make the fat man feel a little admired, see the situation is not good, and run away! It is enough to see Du Aikli's tenacity and decisiveness and strategy. If he is really allowed to run to the north, it may not be long before he will resurrect.

"Assault!" The fat man slashed the gate of the noble army base camp. Five thousand Samor light cavalry swarmed in like a flood, and the camp was empty. The horse stalls were also empty. Many heavy equipment that was too late to be transported were scattered on the ground. The entire camp was already empty, with only a dozen bonfires sparking in the gale.

"My lord, look at this!" Hu Keqili leaned over, holding an object in his hand and handing it to the fat man. It was a pile of letters scattered down. The fat man opened it and looked at it. There is a royal family member. . There are also many large families in Zhuodu, all of which are stamped by the Marquis of Duaikeri. It seems that the private armies of the nobles have been in contact with Kyoto frequently during this period. Hu Keqili pointed to the southwest and said, "We found these scattered letters on the mountain road in the southwest. From the traces of the surrounding footsteps and horseshoes. The noble army fled to the northwest."

"Damn Stephen Cousy!" The fat man took the letter into his arms with a grim face, "I immediately sent someone to notify the Tenth Banner Regiment that sneaked into the north to intercept, and the others would chase after me! That is to chase the Stean family. I’m going to seize Duakri’s territory!"

The northwest is the territory of the family of the Duke of the North, Stephen Cousy, in the letter just now. One is from the Stephen Cousse family, and the content turned out to be an alliance with the noble private army to jointly fight the Samor army. If the two forces are really combined, the consequences will be disastrous.

The Marquis du Aikri looked back at the direction of the third line of defense in the distance~IndoMTL.com~ There was no fire, no smoke, which made him let down the heart of mentioning it secretly. The Samorians also have to rest. The daytime siege has exhausted their strength. I hope that the hard-headed Hesalis can support it until dawn.

At that time, his troops had already climbed this rugged and difficult mountain road. In order to cross this high mountain area, the private noble army discarded all the heavy materials. In order not to reveal their whereabouts, the tens of thousands of troops even had a torch. No, I can only hear the sound of gravel on the mountain road at my feet, wriggling towards a group of black mice in the dark night

"My lord, did the Stuankusai family misunderstand us to take us in?" General Datunics looked worried. The bumpy road made the civilian general ruddy,

This sudden withdrawal made many aristocratic army generals dissatisfied, but they were helpless. The latest news report showed that the huge military force used by the Samor people this time was unprecedented. Among the four main armies. There are three main troops with nearly 60,000 people who have appeared on the front line. Let the noble army generals who know the real connection have no confidence,

Fighting with the main force of 60,000 Samor? It is not enough to add all the forces of all the forces in the kingdom now, let alone my own small unit.

The boasting thirteen fort defense line became a joke in the face of the powerful offensive power of the Samor Army. The aristocratic army camp shakes in the wind and rain
