Power and Empire Chapter 1833: Makino Morrowind (6)

There are dead people ahead, and people are dead all the way. Why do you continue to move forward? The nine-year-old Mo Anglai didn’t understand this. His nerves became hard when he saw blood for the first time when he was crossing the river beach. Father and brother are fighting, as long as you think about it this way, even if the fear of death arises in his heart, there is no weakness on his face

The more you go to the front, the more dead people appear. The team that is maintained in the center like an ant colony also begins to turmoil, and can no longer maintain the most basic queues. The long migration queues are scattered, like a comet across the night sky. The tail became more and more chaotic. After the Gaul army that hit the periphery suffered a heavy damage, it began to no longer waste its troops on its full-scale attack power. Instead, it began to focus on attacking those from the big army like a **** wolf pack. The people scattered, the Slavs’ guards were powerless, and the massive attrition of the guards made the guard circle continue to shrink. The fierce fighting isolation zone changed from the first twenty li to fifteen li, ten li, and then it will change. In five miles, there will be a massacre in the end.

"My lord, it's time to start!"

In the early morning, raindrops flew down,

A Slavic warrior in leather armor pushed half of the door open, and a man squatted inside. The sword on his knee was reflected in the rain. The edge of the sword shone slightly, and the gray wind screamed. Through the stone walls and wooden doors beside the road, everyone can clearly smell the blood, and realize the breath of death and destruction emanating from this man,

The commander of the fifth team of the Slavic Guards, Adri, did not see much expression on his face. He stood up from where he had been sitting all night, his armor rustled, and his hand firmly picked up Cross helmet worn on the head

"Order everyone to assemble!" The hoarse voice was extremely firm. His tired hand patted the grass clippings on his body and walked out of the room. The blood-stained iron armor radiated dim light on the white rain curtain, casting shadows, covering the scene of his hard time not to recall. Yesterday, he lost two sons. A seventeen-year-old man was able to wield a northern epee skillfully to cut open the stakes with one sword. The other was a twelve-year-old who had just been exposed to swordsmanship. Both were attached to his guards and faced the Gaul Long sword, there are no less than three corpses lying under the feet of the eldest son,

In the place where they fell. The skin looked pale in the rain, but it could not conceal its own beauty. The trembling blood red with the white and soft skin was unbearable to witness. The eldest blond son had just a few light yellow beards growing on his chin, and under the beard were the red scars cut by the dagger. His long blond hair was still wet, as if he had just taken a bath, and died so quietly and peacefully, he must be still asleep. His brown brother has fought for life. The arms were all the sword wounds left by the block, and the red liquid still slowly flowed out from the wounds on the chest, lower abdomen and back, as if many toothless mouths were spitting up and down the whole body. Fortunately, the rain washed the other parts clean, and there was no trace of anger in her cold body.

"My lord, it's a logistics officer!" someone suddenly made a voice.

"Damn it, it's all kids, how can this be a war!" Some people complained in anger, shouting the gaze of Adri, who was gathering troops. There was also a slight frown. The army logistics officer brought a hundred new blood, all of whom had not reached the standard. Adri wanted to refuse, but he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. He thought of the two lost sons. What about rejection? These children will also be added to other squadrons. Only by living and walking can there be hope together. Instead of dying silently, at least here, I can persist until the last moment without using them

Rain, rushing underground, and the howling of wolves can be heard in the distance. "From now on, you are the soldiers!" The veteran who had been blind with his right eye threw a pile of blood-stained weapons into the muddy water under his feet, shouting loudly at the Slavic children who stood in a row and shivered by the rain. Dao, the cruelty of the war left this ethnic group with no choice. Nine-year-old Mo Anglaiduo was among them. He picked up the sword in the mud and looked at the peaks in the rain, covered with snow, and the damp woods were silent. , As if the world is frozen at this moment,

Filayag, commander of the 14th Infantry Regiment of the Gaul Northern Army, stood on the horse, gazing gleamingly at the vast wilderness in front of him, with a heavy rain curtain, beside him, a team was wearing Gaul army coat of arms. The hussars of the Gaul Empire are riding their horses quickly, and the gorgeous battle flag of the 14th Infantry Regiment embroidered with golden tassels is fluttering in the wind and rain

"Report, the Slavs are coming!" A Gaul light cavalry rushed over,

"Order, the whole army must stop them from going south!" Feilaige gave the order with a grim face. According to intelligence, the front of the Falcon Army's northward troops is approaching here quickly. In fact, they are hunting. The distance between the eagle army and the Slavic south migration cluster is not 150 li, but 70 li. As long as they pass through this low-lying area with dense forest, these Slavs may escape to life. At this moment, the Gaul army is no longer there. There is more room for them to launch a full-scale attack like a mercury leak,

In the jungle muddy ground under heavy rain, people on both sides continued to splash, scream, and fall to the ground. But no one on both sides backed up. The arm was chopped off and switched to holding the sword. The shoulder was broken by a wooden stick. He gritted his teeth and rushed forward. Another person’s leg was broken and he rolled on the mud and continued to wave. The weapon slashed the enemy's legs, "Archers, go up and tackle them!" The Gaul Empire archers responded with a sudden, and began to draw their bows, and they were about to move forward. With a roar of "Wow", hundreds of Slavs came out of the dense forest, holding up javelins and sticks, and besieging them fiercely.

"Rush up!" The Gaul soldiers in the brigade also tried their best to charge. There were lights and shadows waving weapons everywhere, making it difficult to move forward. They were beaten to blood and blood, and their brains burst. The screams were intensively sounded, and there were constant screams. The figure fell down with splashes of blood. The Gallic mercury offensive is like countless clusters of arrows hitting the defense of the Slavic Guard Corps. Hundreds of hundreds of clashes stretch over this battlefield that spans more than 20 miles, such a huge battlefield. , Has long been out of the control of the commanders of the two sides, whether it is the Slavic guards desperately resisting or the Gallic troops that are constantly gathering, both sides have lost their organization, just like two beasts gnawing at each other, biting with all their strength. other side. I only hope that the other party’s blood can be drained and fall down first,

The ninth day of Lam’s southward move. The massive downsizing caused the Slavic Guards’ combat power to be severely weakened. Eighty thousand people lost more than half of the battle. More than 30,000 Slavic men fell on this seemingly not long road. In desperation, the Slavic tribal alliance had to order. All men over the age of eight joined the guards. At this time, they were less than 150 miles away from the control of the Falcons, and the Gaul army that was chasing and intercepting broke through 100,000. The Slavs were struggling in this rain. The Slavic Guard Corps was exhausted and still relying on the dense forest to block Gaul. Under the pressure of people, the tall northern infantry, whose weapons and armor cannot be repaired, has long been turned into light infantry. The armor on their bodies was chopped and mutilated. For several days of fierce fighting and logistical embarrassment, their weapons were sharpened. This did not change their sturdy style. They bravely used the simple javelins of the Temporary City and Gaul. The sharp swords of the infantry fight against each other,

"For the glory of the empire, we must fight to death!" Gaul officers shouted at the emergency meeting held temporarily, the latest news. The 30,000 elite of Falcon General Salon has already been pushed into the range of fifty miles, that is to say, one hundred thousand Gaul troops who are chasing and intercepting the Slavs. It is possible to face the situation of being attacked by the enemy at any time,

"The block has failed, and the opponent is full of scars. Our side is also exhausted. When it is time to stop, a commander should have a choice." Someone said angrily.

"Even if you want to leave. I have to kill a group of Slavs!"

Various voices made the entire meeting like a farce. The temporarily gathered Gaul army lacks a unified command, and no one accepts anyone. If they can get effective command, if the North Army’s famous general Alder Without going to Gaul Kyoto, this battle to stop the Slavs going south may not be hopeless, but now, precious time is slipping away in their fierce debate,

Saron’s army was rapidly advancing northward. He received the news that the Slavs had moved southward relatively late, but this did not prevent him from perceiving anything from the sudden tense gathering of the Gaul northern army. While the Gaul troops stalked the Slavs, Saron’s legion was giving a fatal blow to the Gaul legion that was blocking in front of them

In the fierce fighting in northern Gaul, the wilderness was full of corpses of belligerents. Amidst the white rain, the black infantry group marched northward like mountains, and hit the 30,000 Gaul troops on the opposite side in the rain. At the same time, there was a terrible metal collision sound, countless figures were trampled by the light of knives and horseshoes, and the red rainwater gathered into small and large streams, flowing in along the cracked soil, mixed with scattered sand and sand. In the crevices of the earth, the two armies staggered together, their spears were broken, and the shield wall was torn apart. The Gaul troops, which had only the strength of the local army, fell down a row of people at the moment of confrontation. The heavy infantry in black armor in front of the army was like an original plank squeezed by a heavy hammer, breaking under the strong multi-level infantry attack. "Stay steady, don't mess! "Some powerful Gaul troops support the turbulent line of defense,

But their maintenance was only before the five thousand falcon cavalry launched the charge, countless horseshoes slacken from the mud pool where the rain gathered, the tumbling heads, grunting in the muddy pool, broken The corpses were stacked in large pieces, and the horseshoes of the falcon cavalry galloped up the blood-filled soil, threw the red and black soil back into the air and then smashed it down like a bird of prey from the rain. Coming, the ground shook first, and then there was a thunderous sound of shocking, like a huge sickle sweeping across, the lightly armed Gaul infantry was like a **** hit by a flood, and there was no time for basic resistance, two thousand men. The team had just reached the flank line when they encountered an oncoming cavalry shock. Although they managed to support for a while, they were quickly defeated by the cavalry. A small number of Gallic cavalry from the center line made special reinforcements. As a result, they were still on the way and were pulled down by the broken soldiers. Everyone rushed into each other. Countless people trampled to death and wounded

"Report, the block failed, the 17th regiment, the 18th regiment collapsed! The commander of the 19th regiment, Lia Ze, died in battle!"

One by one, the reports from the collapse gave way to the ugly face of the Gauls. They expected that they would lose in blocking, but failure does not mean such a disastrous defeat. The advancement of the Falcon Army is almost unstoppable. In this unfamiliar area, facing the hundreds of thousands of troops left by Gaul in the north, they still dared to make such bold actions. This time, the commander of the other side was obviously Audacious, with only 30,000 people, he dared to launch an active offensive directly against the 100,000 people on his side. This approach can no longer be called bravery. This is madness, and the commander of the Falcon Army Salon. It happens to be a fierce player with such an evaluation,

The three infantry regiments sent to block, the 30,000 army, were directly destroyed, and the direct attack was extremely miserable. In less than two hours, the report from the front showed that more than 70% of the troops had been defeated, and the chaos was still expanding like a whirlpool, and the mountains and plains were full of soldiers who fled back. Whether to continue fighting or to withdraw. , Has become an indecisive issue before the Gaul army. In the end, I felt that the Falcons threatened the greater Gallic army and decided to suspend the fight against the Slavs. Before the 30,000 Falcons could converge with the Slavs, they assembled their superior forces to severely damage them!

The Gaul army lined up a long line of more than 4 kilometers on the road of Salon. It was awkward and long in formation, or capable of attacking the city, but it was definitely not suitable for field battles. An order was passed from one end to the other. . It takes some time to ride a fast horse. This is mainly due to the lack of unified command of the Gaul army, and each unit is acting on its own. The elite of the Gaul Northern Army has long been exhausted in the Battle of Dalny on the Western Front. The current Gaul Northern Army is just a new unit and some local troops that Alder has only trained for less than 2 months.

If Alder is still north, or can be twisted into a rope, but Alder is not! In order to show their abilities, the generals in the north chose to take the initiative to attack "All the army forward!" shouting slogans. The Gallic army is coming in droves, and they will use their superior force to annihilate this Falcon army in one fell swoop

"A group of stupid terracotta dogs!" The battle-tested Salon looked at the front line of Gaul and sneered, "Arrow ready!" His face was cold and raised his hand, facing the superior force. With the slightest fluctuation, when he decided to take the initiative to advance northward, Saron had already anticipated that the northern Gaul army would choose to give up pursuing the Slavs and instead deal with himself with all his strength. Facing the 30,000 Gaul troops in front of him, he was very Cunningly did not use the heavy weapons equipped by these Imperial regiments in May,

As his hands were raised, a faint sound of wheel axle rotation sounded from behind him. A hundred arrow carts, pushed by more than two thousand Falcon soldiers, slowly lifted towards the sky. Since the beginning, each arrow car has two rows of three-tube arrow tubes. One hundred is 600 tubes. The predecessor of these arrow cars is a modified version of the Rude arrow car, which is generally only equipped on the battleships of the Imperial Navy. With a stable support, the range can exceed 300 steps for the first time, terrible penetration and lethality, can it penetrate the deck of an enemy battleship? It is close to the strength of an ordinary ballista, and the weight is not large. It only needs four horses. It can be pulled away at will. It is a Legion-level weapon that the empire began to popularize in May this year.

Looking at the Gaul army that is about to enter the range ahead, the operator of the bow and arrow vehicle quickly gets busy. Loudly shook the winch that pulled the bowstring, "filling the preset target. A hundred meters ahead." The robbery bowstring of the arrow car made a squeaky squeak with the pull of the winch, and finally buckled firmly on the back teeth. on board. The crossbowman is holding the thick and heavy crossbow arrows made of pig iron and quickly stuffing them into the arrow slots. Each arrow is specially made, as thick as a small arm. The top is a half-moon-shaped sharp blade forged to increase armor penetration.

Such a sharp cut, even if a heavy cavalry is shot, a large cave will be broken out of it, let alone an ordinary infantry. The four arrows next to it should be thinner, in order to allow it to be able to Irregular free scattering. Therefore, when casting with a mold, no tail feathers are set, and the black pig iron is shining with a courageous cold light,

"Go!" The Gallic soldier who was launching a charge didn't know that one of his feet had stepped into the ghost gate. At a position of 200 meters, a heavy metal rain poured down, violent the forefront troops with a colorful, crossbow. The rapid sound was like a rainstorm. The volley of a hundred arrow carts is like a void knife hit in the cold night, countless clusters of arrows cut from the direction of Falcon Jun, and shot in from the front of the densely packed Gaul soldiers, "Ah," I yelled just now. The Gaul soldiers of the United States seemed to have been smashed in a big chunk.

Densely packed soldiers. It's like hitting an invisible wall with a tragic scream, and the corpses are leaning and rolling down and dragging for a few meters

"Attention, ah" A Gaul officer was shot through from the war horse in the shocking sound of the impact, and flew out for several meters before falling down, hitting the mud below, bright red Human blood instantly stained muddy water, and the Gaul infantry in front were mostly light infantry ~IndoMTL.com~ I saw a white cold light in the crowd making noises like cracking open, like being broken open with a knife. The front end of the **** half-moon passed from the body of the Zhongjian soldier, and a **** blood stain appeared behind it.

Then heavily shot into another soldier's body, like a string of blood gourds inserted into the ground,

Many crossbow arrows without tail wing, after shooting through the target, circled in the air from the projected position, like a high-speed spinning top, violently swept into the crowd behind, breaking the bones of one soldier after another, **** rain Fly horizontally,

"Damn!" Some timid Gaul soldiers were frightened by the sight in front of them. "Retreat, everyone retreat!" The Gaul frontline officers shouted sternly, making the Northern Army's offensive messy. The collapse was like a landslide, countless clusters of arrows shot in from behind the Gaul who turned and fled, and the corpses fell one by one.

Everyone hates that they have had two fewer legs. The expressions of the generals of Gaul look ugly at this time, and they feel like they have been overshadowed by the Falcons on the opposite side.

With such a big killer, the opponent has been forbearing until now. The low morale of the 16th regiment chose to retreat first, and then more Gaul troops chose to retreat, just like facing a hundred The lion of the king of beasts is like a defeated wild dog.
