South of Rila
Yaglins dignifiedly looked at the large area of valleys surrounded by mountains. Next to him, General Rilla raised his whip to the north of the river and said, “That’s where the south leads to the north of the river. The Mars River, the natural defense line of the Reis region, is a branch of the largest river in the south, Feren,
To the south is the vast Perez Plain. There are two lines of defense in the southern part of Rila, one of which is the collapsed sideline.
It is precisely because I know that the sideline is almost insurmountable to defend, so the real line of defense is actually the second defense system in the south with the front Perez Fortress as the core.
The perennial garrison here was originally 30,000 elite from the kingdom, and there was a strong and majestic Peres Fortress behind it.
After receiving a sideline warning, it is enough to deal with twice as many enemy surprise attacks"
Boazuo's voice paused, and his eyes stared at the distant earth with complicated eyes. "But this time, I'm afraid it won't work. There are too many Hungarians. The sideline is no longer an early warning, but a direct collapse! It seems that The mountainous borders were crossed, and most of the frontier troops that the people had placed on the hòu were annihilated or ordered to retreat. Countless compatriots became captives of the Hungarians at this moment. This is the sin of our Rila soldiers."
Boazuo is worthy of being one of Ruilan’s generals guarding the south. He is very familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of the terrain along the way. It seems that the Falcon Army in front of him is the support of the entire south, and he has also begun to introduce the terrain along the way to Jaglin. Si, I only heard him say, "From a strategic point of view, it is not wrong for the Kingdom to completely abandon the first line of defense that can hold the conditions. However, the order was so sudden that the South was not prepared at all, and most of them did not think that war would occur. It started here, so many people kept the heart of luck, and were still hesitating whether they needed to relocate painfully. The 200,000 eastern army of the Hungarians came in like a broken bamboo, and finally the entire southern part fell by half in just a few days. "
Bo's face was cold, and his hand holding the whip made a squeak, with a chill in his voice." According to intelligence, the main force of the Eastern Hungarian Army is gathering 200,000 troops. There is a tendency to continue to march north. , The two legions from Silas arrived yesterday in Fish City, which is less than fifty miles away. These Silas are also the most cruel group of people who treat our Rila people. Although the Hungarians are cruel, most of them are looting. Captives, the Silas are different. The Riras who fell into their hands hardly survived. Compared with the Hungarians, these Silas are even more hateful!"
Yaglins looked at Boazuo who was moving. I couldn't help thinking of the towns along the way I saw when I was withdrawing, I wanted those town militiamen with simple but confused faces on the road, and the Rilla officer who insisted on staying, at this moment. Under the 200,000 Hungarian army, I am afraid that it is no longer there.
Although the Empire has gathered 60,000 troops on Perez this time, according to his old partner Reposti. This battle was the least promising one in his life. The Hungarian army was close to half a million, while the empire's force into the southern part of Rila was only 50,000 to 60,000. Once the Hungarian army is fully prepared to arrive under the fortress, the opponent can even pile up the fortress with a pile of corpses, not to mention that after the Hungarians swept the southern part of Rila, they would drive hundreds of thousands of Rila as slaves. Guarding the Perez Fortress Rila Army is afraid that they will fight unintentionally.
" The victory of this battle does not lie in whether Peres can defend, but whether the Hungarian army can find fighters to inflict its spirit before the Hungarian army arrives at Peres. Consume as much of the power of the Hungarians as possible! "Reposti’s words touched Jaglins a lot. This battle is related to Rila’s life and death, and it also has a great impact on the empire. Therefore, Reposti, who is good at planning, makes plans. There is no prejudice and selfishness! The Rila people also felt this too,
General Poasso, as the highest-ranking general in the south of Rila, expressed his willingness to personally lead the Rila army in the fortress to set up a blocking line on the main road of Hungary. The location is the Mars River, Jaglins. Agreeing, he saw the scene in front of the Poaso Legion that had been killed into a **** ground,
The casualties of the Rila Army are far greater than those of the Hungarian Army, but it is commendable to be able to fight against several times the cavalry with a disadvantaged number of infantry. , Even if placed in the front line of the empire, it can be counted as an elite!
It’s extremely cruel to let these Rielas build a defense line here to stop the consumption of the Hungarians, but war is a place where everything is used, and Jaglins, who has experienced many wars, doesn’t think This is wrong. If the main force of the Hungarian army is trying to survive, if the main force of the Hungarian army is rolled under the fortress, it will be dead!
"Your Excellency led an army of 30,000 riras to deploy defenses here, how long will it be able to contain the main force of Hungary" Jaglins asked with gleaming eyes
Boazuo’s face was silent for a while, and his expression firmly said, "I am a soldier. In this country, where the mountains and rivers are broken and the compatriots are slaughtered, there is no word fear of death in the Rila soldier’s dictionary. I believe other words. The same is true for the Rilla soldiers. One thing I regret most is that after knowing that the despicable Silas betrayed us, I didn’t lead the army into Silas in the first time, even if I couldn’t kill the king of Silas. Kotou, at least kill more Silas people, you can delay it for a while! Instead of sitting and watching your compatriots being killed and doing nothing, you are completely passively beaten, hey, forget it, don’t talk about this"
Boazuo shook his head with some annoyance on his face, his eyes swept forward, and said
" The river is fifty meters wide, and all the bridges on the river are destroyed. Although the Hungarian cavalry are powerful, they dare not walk the water of such a width. In addition, there will be heavy rain soon. If the main force of Hungary is really This way, unless there is a pontoon built by the Silas Army, it can be dragged out for at least four or five days.
" But please tell me, there are three roads from the border to Peres. How did you judge that the main Hungarian army and the Silas army would definitely follow this road? What if you make a mistake. Although this is me Rila’s land, before the last Rila boy died, there is no need for blood from friendly forces to fall on this land, but if I judged the wrong route at the beginning, wouldn’t my Rila’s 30,000 elite be crucified in vain? On this line! I thought that once we met, no matter whether the opponent was the main force or not, our army would have no possibility of retreating!"
"The route should not be wrong!"
Yaglins looked serious, looked deep into the distance, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said in a condensed voice, "The main force of the Hungarians is large. There are also a large number of supplies and prisoners collected along the way. It is impossible to rescue like me. Like your Excellency, I took the cavalry in one breath for two days and two nights from Perez to the border. They must follow this main road with the greatest transportation capacity to the north, because only this road can carry more than 300,000 people. For the other two routes, at most, the opponent will send a team of partial divisions to take charge of the flank.
" The flanking division is not a threat, and the Silas people are not afraid of fighting. What is really worried is that the main Hungarian forces will arrive under Peres Fortress without any damage."
Yagreens paused, and continued, "Because the morale of the opposing army must have been raised to the highest point at that time, even if Perez Fortress deployed the 120 Thors from the Empire, I’m afraid Hungarians could not stop the offensive that the Hungarians had assembled with all their strength like a tiger. On the contrary, the opponent had a huge queue on the way to the north, with more weight and slow progress, which is its biggest weakness. According to this river, it may not be impossible to fight the opponent without being unprepared. No matter what the result of the battle is, it will at least frustrate its morale. When the time comes with Thor's shock, the Hungarians may not have the courage to inspire the whole army!"
"So, you are not absolutely sure?" Poasso's eyebrows furrowed slightly, he is determined to go all out, no matter whether he will die or not, he will kill a few more Hungarians to the bottom,
"In such a big battle, who would dare to say that he is absolutely sure!" Jaglins nodded slightly, sighing with infinite regret, raising his whip in his hand and pointing forward, "The front is the most forward sentinel of your army. Figuey, go there to see the situation first. If the Hungarian army takes this route, there will be a Hungarian wanderer."
At this moment, outside the gate of Figueil, there is a panic. The city of Figueil, which is the closest to the chaos at the southern end, is not large, with a width of only three or four kilometers. There are complete earth walls on the periphery. There are a dozen wooden guard towers large and small, which can be regarded as a semi-military settlement. , Used to be a place for the families of the frontier army. At this time, countless Rila refugees with exhausted faces were surrounding the gate of Figueil, begging for the failure above to open the gate and let them into the city. On the city wall, the Rila militiamen wearing ordinary leather armor also looked nervously at the disturbing crowd under the city wall.
Most of these refugees from Rila came from the south. The Hungarian cavalry's flames burned to the vicinity and they had already begun to flee. After a few days, he was helpless, panicked, and dared not to fall asleep at night. He often heard the roaring wind at night like the sound of horses hoofed by the Hungarian cavalry. When he ran to this outpost where the Rila flag was still erected, it was already. Very tired and haggard,
Although the city of Figuey is not large in scale, its walls are very complete, and there are also Rila soldiers garrisoned on it. For these refugees who have not closed their eyes for many days, seeing Figuey is like seeing a savior. Finally Feel safer.
Here, the Kingdom will send an army to guard it, right? Everyone just asked for a place to rest in the city, and still be able to get some food, somehow it would allow everyone to catch their breath and continue to flee north. For the rise of Rila and the creation of Central Europe’s No. 1 military power, everyone usually endures hunger and endures the heavy burden of the kingdom on their heads. Most of the income is given to the kingdom, hoping to build In an era belonging to the Rila people, I hope to build a strong army, but now the enemy is really here, and it’s fine to defend the army all the way and watch the wind break away. Everyone escaped by themselves and arrived in their own area. Is it even a little bit? No relief is given. Is this request too much?
is the closed Figuei gate, and thousands of Rila refugees who are begging for life surround the city wall and cry and plead. Most of the soldiers guarding the city are militiamen, leaning on the battlements, and they are full of unbearable expressions. Looking down, looking at each other, no one has the guts to open the blocked gate. A thin, tired and blue-eyed Rila officer in his thirties walked up the city wall surrounded by several guards. He saw that this officer should have been the highest officer of the former post, the Rila man under the city. The voice rose suddenly.
"My lord, please let us in! Finally escaped from under the Hungarian horseshoes. There are old and weak inside. It is really hard to walk, and the food is finished. If you go on, you will starve to death. "A gray-haired old man of Rila was full of tears, which made many Rila militiamen on the wall look ugly
" My lord, or just let them in!" a Rila militia captain said to the officer
The officer rolled his eyes and asked, "Can you see the Hungarian Rider that appeared yesterday?"
"No, I saw one on the opposite side in the morning, but there will be none in the back!" The Rila militia captain replied, thinking of yesterday’s situation, he still feels cold and sweaty, Hungarian Rider I just heard about it some time ago, and heard that the entire southern area was harmed by these Hungarian cavalry.
But the real sight of the Hungarian cavalry was last evening. In the light yellow sunset, seven or eight armored cavalry appeared 100 meters away, with rounded pointed iron on their heads. The helmet, with a huge bow behind his back, the horses under the hips are not majestic, but seven or eight cavalry galloped past this outpost almost ignoringly, and the setting sun shone on these Hungarian rangers. It is dazzling like a layer of scales. I don’t know who yelled "Hungarian Riders" on the wall. The whole wall was like a pot fried. At any rate, there were 50 regular troops and 200 militiamen in the outpost in Figueine, but these two hundred and fifty people. I was stunned to watch these seven or eight Hungarian cavalry go away. No one dared to go out and chase. If it weren’t for seeing the opponent just passing by a hundred meters away, a militia captain would almost ignite the wolf smoke on the wall to call the police
" It’s really weird, now that the Hungarian Rangers are here. How did these refugees pass!" The Rila officer’s face turned cold. He is the real Rila’s regular frontier. He has been in Feige for several years. The Iraqi outpost came down. This gaze was a bit of a point. The southern border of Rila fell. He watched many of the fleeing Rila drag their children and women to the north with hesitation, and the emergency military situation in front of them also kept coming. This little officer who was silent in the Rila Frontier Army did not do anything, but rarely did he give up this simple outpost, because he knew that if the Hungarian army wanted to attack Peres, the first important town in the south, the most likely way was to take the road.
If you are walking the road, the importance of your own outpost is self-evident,
If Peres Fortress is the last barrier in the southern part of Rila, then Figuey is the first eye of this barrier. If even here is given up, the movements of the Hungarian army will no longer be able to be explored, and the country is in peril. Soon, someone must stand up! In the past few days, the unknown Rilla officer has been checking the city defense almost endlessly, patrolling the guard towers, gathering the few military rations in Figuei, and distributing them according to the number of people. Destroy vacant rooms in the city to collect bricks and stones. I don’t know where I found a blacksmith to cast arrowheads for the guards in the city
Looking at the thousands of refugees under the city who shouldn’t be here, Officer Rila seemed to feel something. He held the battlements in his hand and raised his head to look into the distance. There seemed to be seven or eight small dots appearing on the distant mound. Come on, Hungarian Rangers! Officer Rila's pupils shrank unnaturally, and several cries of hunger came from the city, which made him hesitate. It is impossible to say that these refugees are dressed up by Hungarians. Most of them are They are elderly, women and children. The few strong men are all single-body, with a clear hungry look on their faces. It is even stranger to say that these refugees have nothing to do with the Hungarians. These thousands of refugees are How to cross the blockade of the Hungarian Rangers?
"Come, throw some food down, these thousands of people, we can’t save them! Let them go!"
Officer Rila’s gaze was retracted from a distance, his face was solemn, and he shouted to the nearby soldiers, "If you don’t want to kill your compatriots, let them continue north. Thousands of refugees treat a small city like Figuei. It’s simply unbearable. There is not much food in the city. It would be a disaster to put it all in.” More than a dozen militiamen silently found some food and threw it off the city wall. The refugees below were picking up food and carrying food. There was too little food in the fight. The people who grabbed the food waited with their heads upright. The people who didn't grabbed looked at it.
"Go, let’s go north if you don’t want to die!" The militiamen on the wall shouted to the bottom, but few people moved. Some were tired and unable to move, and more people were settled. I want to go in, "Open the gates~IndoMTL.com~We will leave when we are full! Otherwise, we will starve to death if we can't go far!" someone from the refugee team below shouted.
" Yes, open it, you are soldiers, isn't it your duty to protect us? "Suddenly there was a shout of kindness from the refugees
" Open a fart, the gate has been blocked with stones, taking advantage of the Hungarians have not yet come! Go north if you don’t want to die! If you go north, you can live! "The Rila officer on the city’s head looked into the distance. He could feel that seven or eight black spots on the soil **** were looking at this side. The Hungarian rangers seemed to be waiting for something. Suddenly, he desperately yelled at the city, "Run! Go!" Fleeing north!" Before the refugees below could react, they heard someone shouting, "The Hungarians, the Hungarians are here." Thousands of refugees exploded, and the cries were louder than before. Ten times a hundred times. Amidst the cries, the crowd was in chaos, pushing and trampling each other, all trying to seize the road and flee north.
Rila's defenders on the city wall held their breath one by one at the moment, looking ugly to the south,
" What are you still doing, light up the smoke! "The Rila officer on the head of the city shouted to a militia captain on Yantai in the distance, his body was as tall as a sword at this moment, and he saw On the horizon in the distance,
Groups of Hungarian cavalry emerged. A long white Hungarian army flag hung on the top of the handle rolled in the wind, and the overwhelming cavalry armor seemed to split the distant world
