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. Masses of miserable dark clouds move slowly and heavily in the sky, and the cold wind blows across the dry and cold land.

The black smoke went up to the sky, the red fire snake licked half of the collapsed small castle, the broken walls, scattered in the nearby villages, river valleys, distant forests and mountains, pale as dead people

The dusk of winter, the burning town,

The vigorous black-armored soldiers shuttled between the low houses of the Normandy village, the sharp swords of the edge of the village flashed 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 sits quietly on horseback. The cavalry bears long bows. The jīng iron saber slung on their waists touches the stirrups from time to time, making a crisp sound. Crash sound,

There was silence, except for the snorting and pouting of war horses.

"Have everyone found?"

Salati, captain of the Third Banner Regiment of the Falcon Empire Expeditionary Corps, rode on the horse, watching all this indifferently. Since the day before yesterday, the expeditionary regiment composed of 20,000 Salanders landed in eastern Normandy. The regiment 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, were already doing this. They swept all the attached areas like a sieve, and finally rescued more than 300 slaves. The Salanders, and more compatriots"", are still being treated inhumanely on this continent, trampled and killed at will like cattle. For the expeditionary army composed of Salanders, it is like It’s a mobilization order that doesn’t need to be issued.

The eastern coast of Normandy. There was black smoke everywhere, flames everywhere, blood everywhere, villages burning, castles 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 an army full of revenge and anger was loosened and the ropes that had been tied to their hands and feet were loosened, the destructive power that broke out was amazing, and everyone's hearts were burning with the flames of destruction. Blood for blood, tooth for tooth,

The Legion Department did not say it clearly, but various acquiescence has expressed this without reservation. The strength of the empire made the Salanders feel for the first time the dignity that a country should have, not From pity and grief. But 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 the dozen or so women who came out supported by the soldiers.

These women still have horror and panic on their faces, ragged clothes, and thin linen clothes, exposing their white and attractive bodies in the cold wind. The face is cold as white as paper,

These women curled up together, like frightened beasts. With a hesitant and confused gaze, looking at these black armored cavalry of unknown origin, although they have been told that they are Salanders, but for them who have endured too much humiliation, everything in front of them is not like that. real!

Saratty turned her head away and ordered the soldiers to give each woman a cotton coat..." "People are a cotton-padded jacket,

Such a 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 the tens of thousands of prisoners of war, there are more than 140,000 The sale of the Salander woman, this shocking figure, is an unforgettable memory and humiliation for the entire Salander nation.

"Captain, it has 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, the red flames spread on the roof of the village, like a group of revenge spirits. While dancing, it was also reflected on him, making his whole person look red, Sarah’s heart contracted unnaturally, her fingers gripped the reins of the horse, and the **** solemnly asked, “What’s the name of the dead? Name, how did you die?"

"It's a girl named Atasa, because she is unbearable...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!"

A black-armored soldier next to him took out a thickly-shaved carbon pen from his shirt pocket, and wrote his new name very carefully on the hide paper already filled with densely packed names. ,

Everyone recorded here 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. It's already on the fringe! A little further ahead, it's out of the range designated by the Legion Headquarters." The deputy captain next to him reminded cautiously. At this moment, a scout The cavalry ran in from outside, panting and reporting to Sarati

"Captain, Legion Headquarters urgently ordered, the whole army is assembled, the Normans are here!"

"The Normans are coming?" Sarah's eyes lit up when he heard the order of assembly. He strangled the horse, raised his horses hoof, and yelled, "A small team is responsible for bringing them back. Others People come with me!"

The dimly ups and downs ahead, a small hill called the Silver Sparrow, on which is covered with beautiful Golan Elson cold shirts, these tall trees have the shape of a tower, with the ends straight into the sky, a The army is slowly entering here, and the black armor, like black flowers blooming on the ground, quickly covered several hills.

"My lord, the scout reports, the Norman army has reached 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 came from Normandy?" Reposti looked back from a distance, turned to ask the scout cavalry who reported the news,

Although we have made preparations, even the experienced Riposti was a little nervous as the first battle of the "Quan Country" on the Europa continent. This expeditionary force landed 20,000 people. In order to avoid the possibility of being blocked all along the coast,

Reposti divided the 20,000 expeditionary army into four heavy-armed groups 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 position in the middle. , Like a prominent spike,

Both of them were celebrities who 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 very sharp in their equipment, but they are very good. With the bravery of the barbarians, they are good at fighting alone. When they are stimulated, they will start the charge without any scruples. To be precise, both of them think that the Normans have very poor combat discipline and have formed a combat system. Compared with the eagle army, it is basically not a threat

Sure enough, the Norman enemy couldn't stand the excitement this time. As expected, he bit into the protrusion of Jaglins, and after discussing the location of the battle with Jaglins, the two of them agreed on the spot. Located 20 miles away from the protrusion, there is a small hill called Yinque,

The terrain here is not vast, but it has an excellent view,

The heights of several hills are also quite large, and there is a low corridor 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.

"It should be more than 10,000!" The scout cavalry raised his head and replied, "And there are indications 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 force behind"

"10,000 forwards! It seems that the Normans are also coming desperately" Reposti showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth. He knew very well that the total strength of Normandy was only about 70, 80,000 at the time when Normandy was at its strongest.

In the battle of Salander, the southern army of the empire went south strongly. The Normans were beaten to lose their helmets and unloaded their armor. They collapsed for hundreds of miles. At least 40,000 Normans died in Salander. In the end, they had to give up the whole Only on the condition that the southern part of Salander and the huge compensation of 5 million gold coins for military expenses were taken back to the country, the remaining 20,000 people were returned to the country.

These cramped corps, even if they go back to China for new supplements~IndoMTL.com~Normandy can still put together 50,000 troops. It is already 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 time when they could not fully assemble their forces. The core of the whole plan was how to use The fastest speed, forcing the Normans with local advantages to rush into the battle, turning their local advantages into extremely passive disadvantages,

His Majesty Falcon proposed a battle plan to release the Salanders and make the eastern coast a place of revenge for the Salanders. As expected, the Normans successfully gave up the plan of decisive battle under the advantage of the inland.

Such a large-scale fluctuation, the tragic situation of looting and killing along the coast, if the Normandy high-level can still be calm, then it is estimated that the nobles in the country will be the first to turmoil, and 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 disadvantaged, they have to force a decisive battle. Reposti feels back for this plan that is completely lore. Get cold

Seeking a monthly pass... It’s been a long time since I did this (to be continued.)
