Power and Empire Chapter 2034: The whole nation fights (3)
On the border between the Kingdom of Hungary and the Principality of Karui, more than ten black plumes of smoke went up into the sky, the villages in the distance were burning, vigorous cavalry shuttled between the low houses in the village, and the sharp swords were in the village from time to time. The side flashes and disappears, occasionally there will 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 entire group of Hungarian cavalry sit quietly on horsebacks. The cavalry bears long bows. Crash sound,
The desolate horn sounded, and groups of Hungarian archers rolled up the snow and galloped towards the village, rolling up the snow. Immediately, the Hungarians shouted loudly from time to time, smiling and whistling at a guard tower of the Principality of Karui not far away, making a gesture of bravado.
The Swiss soldier in the guard tower was so scared that he shrank his head and did not dare to come out. A new soldier wanted to stand up curiously, and was immediately held down by a veteran, and whispered, "Don’t die." , But outside is the Hungarian cavalry. Every fifty-man team must have a sharpshooter who shoots an arrow through the swallow at a distance of 100 meters. At this time, whoever shows up is the target. We can't control that village. If we want to survive, we should not show up. When these Hungarians have all been robbed, they will naturally evacuate. Although the Hungarians are murderous, as long as they don’t actively provoke them, after all, they will not take the initiative to attack our troops."
"We are soldiers of the Principality, are we just watching the massacre of the Hungarians?" A new soldier was holding a simple fir bow in his hand and staring angrily against his body. A veteran who stood up, trying hard to stand up,
The veteran pressed him hard enough, but the young man had better physical strength than him. In addition, he couldn't hold down the young man because he was squatting and couldn't use his strength. He didn't look at the other people and said angrily." You can’t help. The Hungarian’s rule is that once you shoot an arrow, you will kill it all. If you don’t want to die, come and hold him for me, or I’ll let it go, and everyone will die together! "
" But... "The other soldiers looked at each other with ugly faces
" This is the case every year, it’s good if you get used to it. "The veteran's face is blue and angrily reprimanded
" It is true that these villages were burned once last year, and a dozen people were killed, and they will not migrate this year. Can anyone be blamed? When the nearby villages are basically all robbed, there is nothing to rob At that time, the Hungarians would not come! Otherwise, who knows if today is alive and if there is tomorrow!"
Just then, there were a few more horns sounding, the sound of horseshoes in the distance seemed to be gradually closing, and a rustling sound was heard in the snow.
"Damn, I finally withdrew!" The veteran opened his hand and touched the sweat beads on his head. With a sigh of relief, this is the sound of the horns assembled by the Hungarians, which often represents evacuation. The veteran stood up and looked into the distance. Suddenly, he struck a spirit, and saw that the Hungarian cavalry who should have been evacuated in the distance did not evacuate, but scattered to both sides.
I saw a steady stream of Hungarian servants with ragged clothes. These Hungarian servants turned blue and white with cold, and their expressions were numb. The weapons in his hand are mainly wooden shields and short swords. Not many people don't even have shoes under their feet, and they step on the ground barefoot, dragging out scars of shocking blood. There are so many people, there are two or three thousand people, and they are coming in the direction of the border guard tower." The Hungarian cavalry galloped back and forth on both sides of these servants, shouting loudly, and waving their whips. People who are slow and weak, slapping their heads and covering their faces,
"The Hungarians are not playing for real, right!" The veteran's expression changed drastically. There is still some harassment here. This is an invasion. The Hungarians have invaded! The veteran tremblingly picked up the hammer that struck the alarm bell. The territory of the Principality of Cary was not large. There was a military camp in the Principality of Cary in a col that was less than two miles from the border guard tower. If the bell rings, there is I can hear it, but when I knock it myself, I’m afraid I’m really dead and can’t die anymore. The angry Hungarian will kill everyone. The veteran hesitated, and the hammer that had been raised was put down again.
At this time, a white light swiftly struck from a distance, and the metal arrow rapidly enlarged from a point in the veteran’s stunned pupils, and a "puff" arrow pierced the throat, and half of the arrow came out from behind the veteran’s neck. The Hungarians would release arrows and were caught off guard. The whole body was lifted by this swift arrow. The impact force made his whole body recline, blood flowing from the arrow like water droplets, and the corpse fell heavily on the ground. The other soldiers in this sentry tower were shocked and stupefied. Whatever happened, only the young soldier who was suppressed at the beginning reacted first.
gritted his teeth, the young man suddenly rushed over to pick up the hammer in the hands of the veteran, and exhausted his entire strength to hit the bronze bell hanging on the guard tower. The moment the hammer was about to hit the bronze bell, the same as before The same swift white light hit his hammer's arm heavily, and an arrow nailed the young man’s arm to the wooden pillar beside him. Another white light shot through the young man’s throat almost without deviation.
"Chiwuda, although your archery skills have become more refined in recent years, anything can happen on the battlefield. If the sentry had just sounded the alarm, we would be in trouble!" In the distance, a person The young Hungarian officer on horseback put down the cavalry longbow in his hand and said with a serious face,
This young officer wears the red long arrow-marked armor of the Hungarian cavalry and wears a long red cloak on his shoulders. This is the mark of the Hungarian commander,
beside him, this time more Hungarian cavalry came out. These Hungarian cavalry were different from the front light cavalry. Everyone wore heavy armor and hòu robes. With a hard bow slung at his waist, the weapon in his hand is also a heavy long weapon, and groups of people are also pouring out like a torrent. A large piece of horse-covered horse armor, with hundreds of rides.
"It's just an outpost, why be so serious"
Next to him is a young man with flax hair, with a red headband on his head, blowing in the wind, looking very burnt, although his body is just the costume of ordinary Hungarian cavalry, but his arm The bracers are eye-catching red. This is the honor of the Hungarian marksman. Although the Hungarians are not like the dead veterans, there is a marksman for every fifty people, but the archers are prestigious. The number of Hungarian marksmen who shocked the various countries was nearly a thousand. However, if you can wear a red wrist marksman, the entire Hungarian teeth will not exceed one hundred. This is not only a mark of the body, but also a mark of the family. Only families that have been outstanding shooters for three consecutive generations are eligible to wear red wristbands
Hearing Qianqichang’s accusation, the young man curled his lips in dissatisfaction. "What if the other side has sounded the alarm? For this national revenge, all ethnic groups have sent troops to fight, with a total of 150,000 troops. Because the quantity is too large, it is not easy to replenish, so in accordance with the opinion of the military, it is divided into east and west roads to approach the border"
" Prime Minister Wu Ya led the West Road from the direction of the Kingdom of Biya. There was a serious shortage of materials. Along the way, he had to collect the materials and grass needed by the army. Although the number of people on the East Road led by our military minister was not as large as that of the West Road, But there are fewer people, and less consumption is required. Naturally, there is no need to be embarrassed all the way to the West Road. "The voice of the young man paused and said," East Road Rika Kingdom has always had food, this time just take down the border barrier Modo , The army can directly take the capital. I heard that the Rika people hoarded enough food in the capital to eat for the 100,000 army in the first half of the year! As long as you get it, you can use it anyway!"
"I said that, but the walls of the capital of Rika are famous for being strong. It is said that the moat alone is 15 meters wide, and the wall is as high as 30 meters. I'm afraid it's not that easy to hold!" The commander looked into the distance with his eyebrows slightly frowned, and said in a condensed voice
"What are you afraid of? I had the art of massacre and annihilation in Hungary a hundred years ago. It was nothing more than driving thousands of people to the place of death. Even if these thousands of people were all dead, they would collect and drive away tens of thousands of people to die. Except us The Hungarians, the rest of the Hungarians waited so dead, and it was a common thing! The young man with linen hair sneered at the corner of his mouth.
" If the servants die and there are no more people to drive, what do you do?" Qianfu's mouth smiled slightly, and his eyes were deep and said, "Although my Hungarian cavalry is sturdy, but not capable of siege, I dismount and fight. It does not take advantage of it, so once the city is attacked, it must be blamed on the crowd to fill the city."
" But over the years, the number of captive slaves acquired by the kingdom has been greatly reduced. Fifty years ago, it was able to get seven to eighty thousand per year, but now it’s not bad to get twenty to thirty thousand, especially with the Kingdom of Ruila as the leader. The formation of a military alliance has risen and formed mutual troops to restrict the expansion of our country. We have adopted cage tactics in an attempt to make our country’s national strength gradually deplete. No more than our ancestors have moved, hundreds of thousands of servant ants will be driven to attack the city and destroy the city. The magnificent sight of China"
"Aren't there more than 100,000 servants in the country?"
Chiwuda was a little surprised. He is the younger brother of the Chiuradir commander. This time he went out with the army and his outstanding archery skills made him extremely proud. His peers who had been in contact with the king in the past, Most of them are young people of all ethnic groups. Most of them are young generations of Hungarians. They consider themselves to be like arrogances. They have always believed that Hungary is the number one power in Europe, and the Falcon Empire is not a rush. I went up and chopped things up. I heard what my brother said there that Hungary was actually restricted by the alliance of the Central European and Baro countries for decades, and it was still in a stage of declining national power. It was really unheard of, although some were unheard of. Convinced, but don’t know how to refute,
His brother Chiuradir was born as an attendant in the Hungarian army's prime minister's house. He was promoted to the chieftain of the kingdom at the age of 27. The Hungarians became an army with thousands of people because of the existence of a servant army, a team of thousands of people Pure Hungarian cavalry, the number of servants is as small as three to four thousand, and as many as ten thousand, so it is not an exaggeration to call it a legion. The Chiuradir, who commands a thousand elite army under his command, is also a dazzling figure in the Hungarian army. A splendid newcomer in the army, this time he was appointed by Chief Baidu as the forward of the East Army. As the first Hungarian elite to enter another country, his ability is naturally extraordinary.
Chi Uladir looked at Chi Uda with a dull face, and said solemnly, "Although the servant army is cheap, but it is still human after all, it needs to be supplemented if it is dead. If it hadn't been swept away the village on the border this time, This time we attacked Modo, the border barrier, we may not even be able to get together five thousand servants. At that time, I, the commander, will have to bring his subordinates to attack the city."
"Not to mention facing a strong city like the capital of Cary, I don’t know how many people will be filled in at that time. Most of the hundreds of thousands of servants are given to West Road, leaving us less than 60,000. In this way, you have to save some use, that is, military officials will have such a vision to see the crisis of the Hungarian Kingdom"
" In this way, in a few decades, I will be dead alive in Hungary. The army agrees with the battle of revenge. In fact, it is hoped that this can be used to wake up the Chinese people. The looting will not last long after all, although the current Central Europe and Pakistan Luo, it is no longer the land that Hungary could rob endlessly, but as long as we are still vigorous, the nations will inevitably dare not take any action!"
On February 21, the revenge army of the Hungarian Kingdom was finally dispatched and divided into two groups. The western road led by Prime Minister Uya chose to start from the direction of the kingdom of Biya, while the western road was led by the military minister Baidulasu, but the goal was to point directly to the critical Principality of Karui.
The Hungarian forward cavalry embraced the two men straight up to a small hill. The cavalry was laid down layer by layer. Leng Sensen was facing a fortress in the distance, where it was the border barrier Modo, and the servants of the brigade were scattered in front, slowly moving towards the front Modo city wall! Seeing the Hungarian cavalry brigade suddenly appear here, the Rika defenders standing on the top of the city couldn't help but leaned back slightly, as if they could not bear the murderous agitation that came on their faces. Between the soldiers and soldiers, they looked at each other in a panic. The more distinct.
"What's the matter, why is there no alarm bell in the front tower!"
A general of the Principality of Rika stood on a high place, his hands wearing deerskin gloves clenched into fists. Although he received a warning from the capital asking him to pay more attention to the situation of the Hungarians, he did not It occurred to me that the Hungarians were really killed this time. Although Mocha was called a barrier, it was actually a fortress that kept the border line. Just like the previous guard tower, Mocha is the guard tower of the capital. Now it was suddenly killed by the Hungarians. If you are not nervous, it is fake. Seeing the Hungarian servants approaching constantly, I couldn't help but feel a little hopeless. Although Mocha had the name of a barrier, the number of defenders was only 3,000.
"The whole army is ready, and the opponent will release arrows when they approach"
The general Rika yelled with difficulty, visibly trembling. The archers on the fortress stretched their bowstrings nervously, and their hands were trembling. The Hungarians hadn't crossed the border like this for 20 or 30 years, so why did they really kill this time! I hope I can scare these Hungarians away with a cluster of arrows, and getting closer is really deadly!
Behind the Hungarian servants, hundreds of Hungarian cavalry who followed were calculating the distance with cold eyes, slowly raising their powerful bows in their hands, aiming at the Mocha fortress in front, and pressing down with the servants. The city is suppressed by archers. This is the Hungarian siege tactics. The horse bow of the Hungarian archers has a range comparable to that of the Central European infantry. If it is replaced with a light arrow, it can even surpass the infantry. A strong bow with a range of up to 110 meters. The Hungarian cavalry are now waiting for the archer on the fortress to shoot their first arrow.
The Hungarian Servant Army got closer and closer. Most of the servants were slaves, and a few were prisoners of war. They were driven to the battlefield as if they were driving cattle and sheep. Although they had simple weapons in their hands, they did not dare to resist. On the one hand, the suppression of the servants by the Hungarians is so cruel. If one person resists, they will shoot and kill the whole team on the spot. The thousands of Hungarian servants who have been driven from here don’t say they are armored, and their clothes are more solid. Take off for the Hungarian cavalry to keep warm for their mounts. The Mocha Fortress serves as a barrier. Although there has been no war for more than ten years, its preparedness reserves are still rich. The arrow clusters are all good iron arrows, falling on these servants, like a knife, and it will be deeply affected. Go in and open two blood holes directly!
The wave of people that had been surging forward slowly turned over. The screams came and went one after another, and they started to move, and immediately ran back when they reacted quickly. If they couldn't escape, they drove behind the dozen or so siege platoons that they were pushing. The arrows of Mocha Fortress clustered out and fell on the row of cars.
There was a rocket specially designed to deal with siege equipment, and two of them were immediately burned down. The sawdust spattered with sparks, falling on the skin and squeaking, and a piece of the Hungarian servants hiding behind the car Heart-piercing screams. Some people couldn't die for a while, and they rolled on the cold ground to fight for their lives. Blood gushed out and dyed the ground into various strange red patterns.
The servant army is too dense~IndoMTL.com~ Every arrow goes out without fail. As long as the wave of people rushing in the front row was not covered by a shield, it was almost wiped out by the arrow rain! The screams in front rang, and there was a stern cry from the back of the team. But they were the ones who turned around and ran away. The Hungarian cavalry escorted them to shoot with their bows, their heads still above the defenders, galloping at each arrow, the middle door or the heart. The horseback longbowmen of the Hungarian Cavalry are made of heavy arrows. They are thicker and longer than ordinary infantry bows. They have strong wearability. People who have not been armored can almost wear them with one arrow. The same arrow rain, turning around and fleeing. Twenty or thirty people were swept away almost instantly!
"Shoot!"
At this time, the horseback longbow held high by the Hungarian cavalry was neatly released, like a long black line bursting from the horizon below, clusters of arrows like fronts, and the front end is a heavy arrow dedicated to piercing armor, in the air Crossing a dazzling arc, suddenly pouring down like a rainstorm,
The shooting accuracy of the Hungarian cavalry is much better than that of the Rika garrison on the wall, almost the arrow fell.
There are also dozens of military marksmans who used echelon rotation to suppress the city wall. As long as the Rika soldier on the top appeared, it would be an arrow. I saw people on the city’s head continuously falling from the top with arrows.
The three thousand Mocha defenders almost died and wounded more than one thousand people just after the battle. The rest were hesitated about how to fight, and they couldn’t even show their heads. How would they fight this battle? ! (To be continued) [This text is provided by Qihang Update Team@刘靖] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly pass.
