Power and Empire Chapter 1606: Gaulian Winter (8)
The purple flag made a crackling sound against the wind. A purple-haired Murphylins was riding on a war horse. The oncoming wind rarely brought warmth, beside him. , Murphy Obern in civilian clothes stopped the horse,
"Brother, negotiate with the Northwest without authorization, I'm afraid it will arouse resentment from the Algernon family!" Murphy Lins also stopped the horse. Under the two horses, each wild flower was like a huge colorful carpet. Extending to the distance of the earth,
"Don't worry, if I come in person, Alger Farm will get the report. If it's you, I think they don't care! You just came here to hunt, show your face and return, that's all!"
Murphy Obune looked into the distance with bright eyes, the horse whip in the middle patted the smooth black riding boots, a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, and the fortress city of Valparaí with the Falcon flag in the distance, The huge wall is thick and chilling, like a huge gate blocking the front. The huge fortress built by gray stone strips is spotted due to years of erosion. The years cannot obliterate the achievements of the fortress. There are still some parts of the city. The dim blood and the scorched black scorched by the flames, on the contrary, the stronger the fortress is shown.
The two rows of huge stone walls are like a pair of large openings, spreading along the direction of the hills on both sides, forming a solid line of attack around the fortress, guarding the center of the wilderness, each On the corner of a city wall, there are several pointed arrow towers, dozens of temporary camps made of nearby pine wood, guarding the surroundings around the center like guards.
"It is indeed the strong city of Valpalai!" Murphy Obern sighed inwardly. Before leaving, Julius Faubourg gave the two cities that were like gateways to the southwest to the northwest. Although there is nothing on the lips, but for Murphy Obern, who is ruling the southwest, it is a thorn stuck in his heart. The army is blocked in front, and his backyard is held by the northwest coast to be safe. That's really self-deception!
Just as the fat man guessed, Murphy Obern only brought an army of 3,000 men this time, just to show his sincerity to the maximum, and he came to negotiate! If the other party doesn't even have the courage to respond, the Falcon that dominates the northwest coast can only blame itself for taking a look!
Beside him, Murphy Lins rolled his eyes. He raised his whip with some disdain, and said fiercely, "In fact, in the face of the rise of the Northwest, why do we need to lower our value so much? We are the Murphy family, the Murphy family with 30,000 dragon cavalry! If the other party does not open their eyes, I I took the dragon cavalry to level his northwest coast. I don’t believe that these barbarians can still block the iron hoof of my 30,000 dragon cavalry!
"Mischief, is it not enough to make a misfortune!" Murphy O'Born raised his head, his face glared at Murphy Lins angrily, his tone was icy, and the other party was stupid. Smiled, "It's just one, it's not true!"
Murphy Obune shook his head helplessly, this kid. Are you kidding? If you come out of your Murphy Lins mouth, a few are joking! If it is on the eastern border of the empire, a joke made by you, Murphy Lins, can also scare a crowd of people, and feel uneasy. Otherwise, why bother to be sent to the southwest like being sent to the southwest?
He knows too much about the temper of this harmless-looking brother. Don’t look at anyone as a smiling face and seem ignorant of the world. In fact, he has been a fierce fighter who has been on the battlefield for three years.
Murphy’s Dragon Armor has been in the emperor’s world in recent years, especially on the eastern border of the empire. It is a sharp knife that makes people and enemies feel afraid to mention it, not only because of the ink. The powerful combat power of the Philippine heavy cavalry. It is even more because of the Murphy’s lunatic who is called the "Dragon Armor". The Murphy’s dragon cavalry led by this person has never been defeated in the eastern battlefield, even if it was against the heavy armor of Zhongbia. . Almost cut off the flag of Long Yang, a famous Chinese general.
For his own people, this madman is also a fearful existence, just like the Duke of Partington who was killed and refused to help send troops when the battle in Seattle was the fiercest.
That guy led ten thousand dragon cavalry into the capital forcibly, dragged behind the black horses in the game, riding horses, and howling all the way into the camp where the military meeting was being held, with blood mixed behind him. Dragging a dozen miles of blood with the minced meat, the Duke of Partington could not see that he looked like a person for a long time. He was covered with broken bones of White Sensen all over his body. If it weren't for Marty, one of the deputy chiefs of the military department of the Abbot Conference Grid came forward, that old **** would be dead even with missing bones!
"The Murphy family's purpose has always been that I am invincible! But it does not mean that we need to fight with everyone! If you did this, the family would have been defeated by enemies on all sides!" Murphy O'Brien Taking a deep breath, his gaze looks like a goshawk looking down on the earth from a high place. Under Morphlins’s sight, there is a huge mountain range that traverses the western part of the Gaul Empire. The towering mountains spread horizontally, and the snow-capped roof can be seen from the top. It’s the chūnsè zone of Cuisè,
"The Legerdo Mountains are in front of you! "Murphy Obune turned his head and said to the somewhat confused Murphylins." This is the mountain range, which divides the western part of the empire into the northwest and the southwest. The mountain range There are only two roads between the two areas, one is the Fernand Corridor 50 miles away from here, and the other is the Valparaí Corridor in front of you, which led a 50,000 Gaul army to conquer the Northwest in one fell swoop. From here, Arzer, the empire general of the 14 tribes, entered the Duze Kingdom that has ruled the southwest for more than 60 years."
"Arzer! Are you the Duke of Alzer Lion who followed the first emperor to fight for hundreds of battles three hundred years ago?"
"Yes, that's him! He entered the northwest from here!" Murphy Obern nodded and raised his whip to point at the valley narrow path behind the distant fortress
Murphylins’ eyes suddenly lit up. Arzer was the most famous cavalry general in the early days of the Gaul Empire, and he was also an imperial general who liked to use heavy cavalry to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
Heavy cavalry, rushing like thunder, breaking the formation like paper, has always been the sharpest unit of the cavalry. Murphy Lins likes to command the heavy cavalry, partly because Murphy Dragon Armor is the heavy cavalry unit of the empire. And partly, it’s because of the admiration of this Arzer
Murphy’s Dragon Armor, the Gaul Empire’s cavalry is second only to the Royal Guard’s heavy-armed knights. Because of the imperial restrictions on local princes, the number is only 30,000, but they are all battle-hardened jīng knights. . In the Seattle battle, 30,000 heavy cavalry defeated the three heavy regiments of the Central Biya Empire. According to the King’s Heavy Knight Corps, which is stronger than Murphy’s Dragon Armor, the number is also 30,000, but the guarded emperor I don’t like the limitation of authority, and I have never left the important place in Kyoto,
The original Murphy Dragon Armor. In fact, it is one of the three squadrons of the King’s Heavy Cavalry Corps. The other two are the "Baidan Heavy Cavalry" of the Alger Farm Family and the "Thunder Lion Heavy Cavalry" of the Arzer Family.
Unfortunately, one of the three thunder lion heavy cavalry has become a cloud of history. This thunder lion Arze is a man of the early empire.
At that time, the Gaul Empire had just been established. The focus of the empire’s development should be east or west. This has always been the focus of internal disputes within the empire. Finally, the general of the first emperor, Alze, was willing to take the lead 5 Ten thousand army, conquered the northwest region where barbarians were at that time. To open the way for the empire to expand its power to the West, the first emperor did not agree at the beginning,
Maybe the xìng is too low. Although the Northwest barbarians are called barbarians, their number has reached more than 3 million. Although they have not formed a unified country, they have alliances within them, and they are only one step away from being called a country. The number of troops capable of fighting is as high as 200,000. For the newly established Gaul Empire, it can be regarded as a strong enemy blocking the development. On the contrary, the resistance is less in the east. Although the Central and Bahia region is suppressed, there are still more than a dozen small countries. In the middle,
"The empire should seek a long-term development path. Rather than greed for temporary gain, the premature elimination of the gap with Zhongbia will only cause the empire to fall into long-term depletion." The second time Arzer asked to advance westward. Dispatch troops,
Finally. The stubborn emperor can only agree to both sides at the same time.
Facts have proved that Alze’s analysis is correct, because the border with China and Bahia was opened prematurely, and the Gaul Empire was dragged into a century-long war. Until now, a large amount of manpower and material resources have been invested in On the eastern battlefield, if the same power is invested in the west, the territory of the Gaul Empire may be expanded.
In the northwest, after more than three years of **** battles, Alze, who had only 50,000 troops, smashed the resistance of the northwest barbarians by relying on fierce heavy cavalry, and used the slaves to conquer the area to establish a 100,000 The human slave army,
Similar to the reversal of the Battle of Biye Valley, Alze used the tactics of step-by-step lure, and finally used the dangerous terrain of the Anding Valley to defeat the 130,000 barbarian coalition forces in one fell swoop.
The blood of the barbarians killed in this battle flowed into a river, and more than 100,000 corpses were thrown into the river flowing from the valley to the outside. Countless barbarians were slaughtered by the subsequent massacres, and everyone was terrified. The Northwest Barbarians have completely lost the confidence to resist
Some barbarians chose to surrender to Alze and become the vassal state of the Gaul Empire, including the Northwest forces such as Basta, Rudson, Denia, Normandy, and others. The barren and cold regions moved north to form the current Slavic ethnic groups, and some of them sought to migrate by sea to the other side of the distant sea. According to reports, there is a calm and vast land that can provide shelter to people in wars. So,
Hundreds of years of wind and rain, the barbarians in the Northwest have taken root and sprouted everywhere. Only the Slavs who migrated to the northwest still remember the vows of their ancestors, harassing the northwest of the Gaul Empire again and again, hoping to return to their homeland,
In the early days of the empire, it was often shaken by wind and rain and **** plots. Alze, who completed the inclusion of the Northwest region into the sphere of influence of the Gaul Empire, was greatly admired by Emperor Gaul I, and was appointed as the first governor of the Northwest Region. In order to strengthen the control of the Northwest Region, Alze mobilized again. It took 20 years to conquer the region, including 140,000 prisoners and 300,000 laborers.
The mountain corridor leading to the southwestern region was digging a mountain road, and two fortified cities were built with huge rocks, Fernán and Valparaí. Although the two cities are not big, they are backed by mountains. , It is unusually strong, and it is a natural danger to guard the main road. The construction drawings are personally reviewed by the experienced and experienced Alze. If the two fortresses send troops to attack, no more than one squadron can charge forward at a time.
This is a real natural danger. Whoever wants to step on it must use several times the flesh and blood to fill it. Alze believes that these two fortresses can make his northwest as stable as an iron barrel, without worrying about the people coming from the southwest. Threat, this is the only way to enter the southwest from the northwest by land, and it is a dangerous terrain where one man can be used as a barrier. Even the fat man who claims to be "indestructible" is unwilling to use forces against these two natural walls,
Unfortunately, this empire general, Arzer, who opened up the empire and expanded its territory, has not seen the completion of the two cities in one day.
He is in his sixteenth year as the head of the Southwest District. When he returned to Kyoto to report his duties, the emperor suddenly ordered the execution of the entire clan. He was charged with splitting the rule, supporting his own self-respect, and intending to rebel. The northwest area under his jurisdiction became the target of various forces in Kyoto. The army of more than 100,000 under his command was controlled by the Imperial Guard Corps sent by His Majesty the Emperor before being mobilized.
The so-called rebellion finally caused one third of the nobles in the Gaul Empire to be implicated, killed, or seized the title, and recovered the rewarded land. Heads are rolling, women and children cries endlessly, the whole country is full of blood and blood, and it is also sad. The real reason for Alze's death was only because at a meeting, the imperial general who had made great achievements in the northwest of the empire, unconsciously A sentence
"Your Majesty the Emperor is getting old. The first prince should be able to become the emperor!" His Majesty Emperor Gaul I didn't say anything at the time, he smiled disapprovingly, no one thought, just opened After the meeting, the imperial guards arrested the so-called Alze, and the tens of thousands of iron-blooded guards in the capital also sent out to arrest people everywhere. One night, the whole of Kyoto is like hell
Alze looked innocent. The old emperor had two sons, one of whom was forty years old. The other is only fourteen years old. Because the crown prince has not been established, ministers usually call them the first prince and the second prince.
"From the perspective of age, the second prince cannot be the emperor anyway! The first prince is the emperor, what is wrong with his subordinates! "When it is winter, snow is falling on Alze, who is in shackles. Alze, who has only light clothes, is still standing staunchly in the snow, his sturdy body is like an iron tower, and behind him are four tall and sturdy king guard knights. Standing opposite is the old emperor, looking up at the sky. After a while, the old emperor turned around with a cold face
"Qing Gui is the Duke of the Empire, in charge of the northwest and a heavy minister with one-third of the empire's forces. Your first prince should be the emperor. Under that environment, should I be or shouldn't I be? If so, isn't it right? After succumbing to force, everyone from all sides followed suit, and the empire did not fight and chaos,
"If not, what do you make the first prince and most of his vassal forces think? But I have specially cultivated the power for forty years. It is the backbone of the empire. If you don’t immediately order you to be executed, this The chaotic heart will soon disintegrate the empire from the inside!"
"I am not convinced, I have laid the northwest for the empire! Opened the gate to the west, you can't do this to me"
Alze's face was **** red, and several royal guards rushed forward. The guards in heavy armor weighed more than 200 kilograms, and 4 people were 800 kilograms. They immediately crushed Alze, who was like an iron tower. It’s hard,
"You are not convinced, I am not convinced yet, why, why should I make a choice in the end!"
The old emperor glanced at the confidant general who was suppressed by the guards, and suddenly smiled bitterly on his face, the old tearful, and looked up at the sky of falling snow with grief and anger, and said to himself, "Don't worry, you will not be alone. Yes! I will let your family accompany you. In addition, there are everyone in the Second Prince and the First Family. You have changed the empire and a prince, and you have changed tens of thousands of people. There are so many people for you. Funeral, what are you not satisfied with!"
For three hundred years, Murphy Obern stopped the horse on a **** hundreds of meters away from Fernán City." You, Arzer’s grievances are really like rumors, and they have been here for three hundred years. Wait, wait for the day when someone breaks open, hovering like the wind just blew!"
"I don't know, but I know that the eagle on the northwest coast has built a huge sea city on the other end of the mountain range. If I have a chance, I can take a look. "Murphylins' eyes crossed the ground.
"My lord, do we need to send someone to negotiate?" The dragon cavalry officer who led the team turned around,
Behind the two of them~IndoMTL.com~The galloping purple dragoons stopped their horses neatly,
The knight’s lance tilted downwards, in a uniform movement, and a dragon-like smoke was raised at the stopping point. The sharp lance tip made the air of Chuchūn feel cold,
Fernan City in the distance seemed to sense something. The gate that was still crowded just now became empty immediately.
Only the cold and bleak chūn wind blows out from the doorway
"No need, look, isn't it here!"
Murphy Obern grinned slightly and waved,
In the distance, the hooves of horses were rolling like thunder, and more than a hundred murderous black armored cavalry galloped out from the empty gates. The black armored horses, the horse's head, and the iron armor spikes on the chest, the chill is pressing At first glance, it is a fierce beast equipped for killing. It is the symbol of the Northwest Cavalry.
