Power and Empire Chapter 1279: Scarlet Silver Sparrow (1)
The cold east coast of Normandy is covered with dark clouds, like a huge tornado absorbing power, and masses of miserable dark clouds move slowly and heavily in the sky, and the cold wind blows across the dry and cold earth,
The thick black smoke went up to the sky, and the red fire snake licked half of the collapsed castle, the broken walls, scattered in the nearby villages, river valleys, distant forests and mountains, pale as dead people
Winter dusk, burning town,
Vigorous black-armored soldiers shuttled between the low houses of the Normandy village. The sharp blades of their swords flashed by the village from time to time, and occasionally there would be the crisp clash of iron weapons and the angry scolding of fighting. But the sound always disappears quickly,
In the open space outside the village, the black-armored cavalry in full clothes sits quietly on the horseback. The cavalry bears long bows. Crash sound,
(The film is silent, only the snorting and pouting of war horses are heard.
"Have everyone found?"
Falcon Empire Expeditionary Regiment 3rd Banner Squadron Captain Sarati rode on the horse, watching all this indifferently. Since the day before yesterday, the expeditionary corps composed of 20,000 Salanders has landed in eastern Normandy. Legion The first instruction given was to search all the villages within 50 miles at the fastest speed. If there are nobles’ castles, immediately pull them out. If they find the Salanders, they will all be rescued.
In fact, the Salanders, who were full of revenge without an order from the Legion Department, had already done this. They wiped out all the attached areas like a sieve, and finally rescued more than 300 slaves. The unaffiliated Salanders, and more of their compatriots, are still being treated inhumanely on this continent, trampled and killed arbitrarily like cattle. For the expeditionary army composed of the Salanders, It’s like a mobilization order that doesn’t need to be issued,
The eastern coast of Normandy is full of black smoke, flames, blood everywhere, villages are burning, and castles are burning. The scene that once happened on the land of Salander is now being repeated on the territory of the Normandy, even more intense!
When a military squad full of revenge and anger was loosened and the ropes tied to their hands and feet were loosened, the destructive power that broke out was amazing, and everyone’s hearts were burning with a flame of destruction. , Blood for blood, tooth for tooth,
The Legion Department did not say it explicitly, but all kinds of acquiescence have expressed this without reservation. The power of the empire made the Salanders feel for the first time the dignity that a country should have. Not from pity and anger, but from real iron and blood,
When the screams and brawls in the village gradually turned sparse, flames and black smoke continued to soar from all over the village. After a while, Sarati’s eyes focused on a dozen women who came out supported by the soldiers,
These women still have horror and panic on their faces. The ragged clothes and thin linen clothes expose their white and attractive bodies in the rustling wind, and their faces are as white as paper.
These women curled up together, like frightened beasts. They looked at these black armored cavalry of unknown origin with a hesitant and confused look, even though someone had told them that they were Salander. People, but for them who have endured too much humiliation, everything in front of them is so unreal!
Saratty turned her head away and ordered the soldiers to give each woman a cotton coat,
This situation is not uncommon in the searched villages. Women are always the most vulnerable group of people in the war. In the entire southern Salander war, in addition to tens of thousands of prisoners of war, there are more than ten thousand The sale of the Salander woman, this shocking figure, is an unforgettable memory and humiliation for the entire Salander nation.
"Captain, we have been cleared, 17 of them, one died the day before yesterday, and the others are here!"
The squad leader who led the search came out of the village last, and his sword was dripping with red blood. Behind him, red flames spread across the roof of the village, like a group of revenge elves dancing. At the same time, it also reflected on him, making his whole person look red. Sarati's heart contracted unnaturally, her fingers gripped the reins of the horse, and she asked solemnly, "What's the name of the deceased and how did he die? ?"
"It's a girl named Atasa, because she can't stand the abuse...so...
. . "The captain who responded to him lowered his head, showing an inexplicable expression of grief and anger, and squeezed a few words from the gap in his teeth
"Atasa. Recorder, register this name in the book..." A trace of darkness flashed across Sarati's face, and she raised her head to look at the dark clouds in the distance,
"Yes!"
Next to , a black-armored soldier took out a thickly-shaved carbon pen from the pocket of his underwear, and hardly wrote the new name on the animal skin paper that was already filled with densely packed names. ,
Everyone recorded above is a Salander who has been unable to go back. Everyone is a lonely ghost in a foreign land. According to the instructions of His Majesty Falcon, the expeditionary army landed. Everyone who died in Saran must be found. Even if their bodies cannot be returned to Sarand, their souls must be returned.
"Okay, let's go to the next one!" Sarah raised her whip,
"Captain, this is the fifth village. Only the marginal army has left the range designated by the Legion Headquarters." The deputy captain next to him warned carefully. At this moment, a The scout cavalry ran in from outside, panting and reported to Sarati
"Captain, Legion Headquarters urgently ordered, the whole army is assembled, the Normans are here!"
"The Normans are coming?" Hearing the order to gather, Sa "Baidu★Xiangxiang★Text" Lati's eyes lit up suddenly, he stopped the horse, raised his horse's hoof, and shouted " A small team is responsible for bringing them back, and the others will come with me!"
The dim undulations ahead, a small hill called a silver bird, covered with beautiful Golan Elson cold shirts, these tall trees have the shape of a tower, with the ends straight into the sky. A military team is slowly entering here, black armor, like black flowers blooming on the ground, quickly covering the locations of several hills
"My lord, the scouts report that the Norman soldiers have arrived at Larry in front of us"
The galloping cavalry stopped the horse in front and quickly jumped down, ran up a hill, and reported to Reposti, who was looking at the terrain, "The striker has already encountered the striker of Lord Jaglins, Lord Jaglins According to the original plan, moving to the scheduled battle location!"
"How many people are in Normandy?" Reposti looked back from a distance, turned to ask the scout cavalry who reported the news,
Although I have made preparations, as the first battle in the Europa continent, even the experienced Riposti was a little nervous. This expeditionary force landed 20,000 people, in order to avoid being completely blocked. Possibility along the coast,
Reposti divided the 20,000 expeditionary forces into four heavy-armed clusters separated by 50 miles. Among them, he led 10,000, and the other 10,000, led by the deputy commander of the army, made a forward advance in the middle. Posture, like a prominent spike,
Both are famous generals who have fought against Norman enemies in the southern part of Salander. They are very familiar with the fighting style of the Normans. These sturdy Haitian people are not elite in equipment, but they are very good. A barbarian bravery, good at single-soldier combat, often as soon as he is assassinated, he will first charge without scruples. To be precise, both of them think that the Normans have very poor combat discipline and have already formed a combat system. Compared with the Falcons, they are basically not a threat
As expected, the Norman enemy could not stand the stabbing jī, and bit on the protrusion of Jaglins as expected. After discussing the location of the battle with Jaglins, the two looked at the same. Going to the position 20 miles away from the protrusion, a small hill called Yinque,
The terrain here is not vast, but it has an excellent view,
The undulating heights of several hills are also quite large, and there is a low corridor deep in the middle. If the enemy wants to attack the Falcon Army on the hills, they must brave the arrow rain to cross these low areas.
"Should be more than 10,000!" The scout cavalry raised his head and replied, "And there are signs that this may only be the forward of the Normans, because most of them are cavalry. The previous advancement speed was very fast, but just after Lord Jaglins’s legion contact, he chose to stop. It should be that he wanted to bite the legion of Lord Jaglins tightly and prepare for the main attack behind."
"Ten thousand forwards! It seems that the Normans are also coming desperately." A sneer appeared at the corner of Reposti's mouth. He knew very well that the total strength of Normandy was only about 10,000 at the time when Normandy was at its height.
The Battle of Sarand, the Imperial Southern Army marched south strongly, the Normans were beaten to lose their helmets and unarmed, and they collapsed for hundreds of miles. At least 10,000 Normans died in Salander, and finally they had to give up the entire Sarand. The southern part of the Rand and the huge compensation of 5 million gold coins for military expenditures were conditional on the withdrawal of the remaining more than 10,000 people back to the country.
These crippled legions~IndoMTL.com~ Even if they go back to China to make new additions, Normandy can still piece together the military strength of 10,000 people. This is the limit. Ten thousand people will be invested as forwards, which is enough to explain the Norman Company. The last family property is used
Using the Salander’s vengeance as a bait, the Normans were forced to find advantageous fighters on the eastern coast in a very short period of time when they could not fully assemble their forces. The core of the whole plan was how to do it. At the fastest speed, the Normans, who have local advantages, were forced to rush into the battle, and their local combat advantages were transformed into extremely passive disadvantages.
And His Majesty Falcon proposed a battle plan to release the Salanders and make the eastern coast a place of revenge for the Salanders. Sure enough, the Normans gave up the plan of decisive battle under the inland superiority.
With such large-scale fluctuations and the tragic situation of being looted and killed along the coast, if the high-level Normandy can still be calm, then it is estimated that the nobles in the country will be the first to turmoil. In this case, the Normans will inevitably take a risk !
"Your Majesty's eyes are really harsh!" Thinking that the Normans are now facing a dilemma, even if they know that they are not good for themselves, they must force a decisive dilemma. Reposti also feels that this is all a lore. A chill in the back
