The spacious river course of Namu River rolled up the white water and rolled to the south, sparkling in the sun. The river collided with the embankment next to the river course, making a sound of grace like thunder.
This long river channel, which poured in from the northern estuary of Eero, has stretched out hundreds of tributaries along the river under the impact and scrubbing of millions of years. It is also called the Nile river channel of the Eero Empire. Are the two major arteries of Southern Europe
It flows through the northern part of Eero, the northern part of the Mission State, the southern part of the Mission State, and the northern part of the Harvey Kingdom. It traverses the territory of the four kingdoms. Because of its wide area and many tributaries, it flows through the Nam River. It is very large, because there are many valleys in the area passing by, so the river is very turbulent, which can be described as turbulent waves
Even in this hot and rainless summer, the average depth of the river water is more than six meters, and the average width of the river surface is more than 400 meters. Facing such a river, the river crossing and floating bridges are not realistic, only solid ground The stone arch bridge can conquer this kind of rushing, in order to cross this wide river and realize the smooth flow of the central and southern parts of the ecclesiastical country
The second generation of the Pope of the State of the Order invested all the more than 100,000 people who were classified as heretics in the country into the construction of this bridge. It took a full eight years ago and more than 30,000 heretics died. At the price, a large stone bridge constructed by a huge chain hanging on the Nam River, which is rushing to the south, was finally built, the Nam Bridge
The Nammu Bridge was built in the middle of the narrowest gorge of Namu River, with a total length of more than two hundred meters. It traverses a gorge. There are a total of seven bridge piers, all of which cleverly avoided the rushing river, but chose to support it. In the protruding position below the canyon, such an ingenious design is the pinnacle of the architectural skills of this era without reinforced concrete, and there is another saying that this construction technique is not an exile of the religious regiment. Creation came from the mysterious capital that was known as the holy city. It is said that the huge holy city was surrounded by a canyon and trench up to a hundred meters wide. The holy city used miraculous methods to build four huge canyons. The huge bridges running side by side use this technique of hanging the roof.
At the beginning, no one thought how long this kind of bridge that relied entirely on hanging would last
For decades, after the rain, snow, wind and frost, the years of devastation is still as strong as before, and the Namu River below is still surging, with a majestic sound of thunder, which serves as an important link between the central and southern parts of the Order. The transportation hub, whether it is from the central and northern plains of the mission country to the southern mountains, or from the southern mountains to the central and northern plains, is already accustomed to passing through the Nam Bridge route, otherwise it will have to go around more than a hundred miles. , Go to the lower reaches of the river to have a chance to cross the river,
Although this is the throat of the central and southern regions, in fact, for large-scale cold weapon wars, the importance of a bridge is very limited. In this era of cold weapons, the army is marching basically. Just meet the river to build a bridge and open the road every mountain. Without the Namu Bridge, wouldn't it be like a river? The army forced a swim, and tens of thousands of people poured into the river at once. Even the rushing river would be blocked and cut off. Therefore, the Harvey Army only sent a squadron to guard the bridge on the Nam River. , And the main responsibility is not to defend, but to check the passing vehicles
The Fifth Squadron of the Eighth Army of the Harvey Kingdom is the defender of Namu Bridge. Squadron Captain Skanades is a veteran of nearly fifty years old. The Fifth Squadron under his command only belongs to the Eighth Army. The logistical organization is mainly responsible for the transportation of materials. Although I know that the current situation is a bit tense, the news from the country is more worrying than one. The Martin Liya Army broke into the border and defeated the border defense forces in just a few days. , Following the fall of a series of cities, what everyone wants to do most now is to immediately state, because their family and property are in the country, when they think of the brutal Martin Liya people are raging in the country, and as a soldier, himself However, they stopped on the land of other countries, and the 80,000 Harvey soldiers who were stranded in the territory of the Order were panicked. Skanades was naturally among them, but the veteran was really angry. The above command to continuously deploy troops
At this moment, the generals of the Harvey army have decided to withdraw, but they are afraid that the opposing imperial army will take the opportunity to attack, so in order to deceive the opposing imperial army, let it have the illusion that the main force of the Harvey army is still there, the general of the Harvey Kingdom We began to constantly mobilize soldiers from the weak and miscellaneous troops to fill the front line, and then withdraw the elite soldiers from the front line
The result of this is that the number of soldiers on the front line of the Harvey Army does not seem to have changed much, but the logistics and miscellaneous troops that have been transferred to the front line are miserable. Once the main combat force begins to withdraw, the opposite The imperial army will definitely find out for the first time, when the imperial army will be overwhelmed by mountains, and those who are left behind will be able to escape.
Among the soldiers who were drawn up, there were two of Skanades’s nephews. When they thought of this, Skanades was ticklish with hatred.
Originally, he used his power for personal gain and transferred two nephews to his squadron to mix food and drink. This practice is not uncommon in the Harvey army. The Harvey area is mountainous and barren, so instead of staying In my hometown, I can’t even eat enough to eat. It’s better to come into the army with myself. At least I can reduce two mouths for the family. At the beginning, Skanades patted his chest to ensure that he would bring his two nephews intact. Go, who knows that the day before yesterday, a stern-faced Legionnaire officer took all the young men under 30 from the squadron with a warrant, leaving only some old soldiers like Skanades
The number of ground guards at Nammu Bridge is already less than two hundred.
For Reposti, who has been staring at the bridge for two months, it is definitely news that the emperor will not allow him to provocation against the Harvey Army, but if he can **** Under this bridge, they found that the Harvey army that had been cut off had the only way to fight with them. Of course, the Harvey might also choose to cross the river from the downstream area a hundred miles away.
It’s just that this possibility is very small. Not to mention the fact that the Harvey Army, which has suffered a severe morale, chooses to travel hundreds of miles and downstream. It is difficult to say whether it will cause the whole army to mutiny, let alone the arrogant national character of the Harvey Army. Originally, the Harvey were not like this, but they had been strangled by the religious regiment for decades. They were bulls and horses, and they had to pay for their smiles if they were beaten. Now they turn over and become the masters. That kind of arrogance, arrogance, and special It was the imperial army that was slow to move, and it made the Harvey army believe that the imperial army stayed where it was and did not mean to go south. It was just preventing itself from going north. Now that it is not going north, the empire will stop itself?
As the frontline elite troops are constantly being replaced, in the past few days, Harvey troops have been passing by the Nam Bridge,
Skaniad watched the teams evacuating from the bridge to the south every day. His eyes were constantly spinning on the banners of these teams, and the hand holding the handle of the knife was trembling slightly. He is a veteran, just from these troops. The military flag, he has already recognized the organization of these troops, the second squadron of the third army, the fourth squadron, the sixth squadron of the fourth army, the eighth squadron, and the fifth army have successively withdrawn one or two thousand to the south. People are all elites in the various armies, or a team of nobles. At the beginning, Skaniad carefully asked them about the battle ahead and learned that the imperial army did not take an offensive. Take a breath,
Even these elite troops ran away, which shows that the above has been shaken to persevere! Now I just make a representation. I can only hope that the imperial army will find out later. Skaniad stares at the bridge every day, eagerly waiting for the news ahead. "You are lucky. You don’t have to go to the battlefield, but you can enjoy the military’s experience." Everything "An officer of the Fourth Banner of the Harvey Army who walked over the bridge approached and looked at the bridge with envy. These garrison troops felt that it would be too happy not to go to the battlefield. If you have been to the battlefield, you know, Why is the Imperial Army called the Demon Army! Although the imperial army did not take major actions, the friction between the two armies of the scouts has never stopped. Under the crossbow of the imperial scouts, the losses of the Harvey scouts can be described as tragic, and more than half of the Harvey scouts died in battle. Or injured, the remaining half only dared to wander around the campsite
In the afternoon, Skaniad was taking a lunch break, but the weather was very hot and he slept drowsily. He couldn't sleep anymore. He got up from the bed and drank two bottles of wine and walked out drunkly. In the barracks, his temper has been very violent lately, and his subordinates have become accustomed to it. Skaniad was fighting on the Nammu Bridge. Looking ahead, another group of Harvey troops came over, but this group looked quite miserable. All of them wrapped their heads in white cloth. The blood was stained on the white cloth. They also dragged a few dilapidated carriages. On the carriages lay their injured companions. They were all covered in dense bandages like mummies, and they even took the lead in commanding. The officer was also full of scars and blood stains all over his body. It looked particularly shocking. "Which army are you from, the empire has attacked?" Skaniad was taken aback, his eyes scanned carefully in front of this team. Sweep, his face was extremely nervous and asked, "We are from the Ninth Army. The imperial army suddenly launched an offensive this morning. Our army was caught off guard. It was destroyed in just one shot. "The commander with this group of defeated soldiers is A thin middle-aged man. Collect this site┏Ⅹ④③⑨⑨┛A depressed face wants to cry
"The Ninth Legion? Are you still thirty miles from the battle line? How could you be the first to bear the brunt!" Skaniad's face suddenly sank. Today he drank too much, and he would fight if he couldn't help himself. He stumbled, just accidentally saw the remnants and defeated generals seem to be moving quietly, the position of the movement is also a bit strange, they are so close to their soldiers, why? I don't know why, what Skaniad felt faintly, how did the wounded soldiers always put them under the thatch of the carriage? Is there anything very valuable below?
"My lord, the Ninth Army was indeed attacked suddenly and it has collapsed. "The middle-aged man has a serious face and a chill in his low voice." Where are the generals of your Ninth Army?" Skanidya was drunk and stumbling with his alcoholic burps, he staggered into the side, as if he was very casual, but suddenly, Skanidya was lying like a rabbit. Screamed at the same time: "Ready to fight, they are the imperial army!"
The atmosphere on the bridge seemed to be condensed suddenly. The deafening shout of "Kill", a **** smell hit the face, and the steam of human blood was steaming.
Suddenly, the Harvey soldiers guarding the bridge haven’t reacted yet, or they haven’t had time to react. Some people don’t even know what Madness Skanidea is making, a drunk man. A drunkard, who would believe it? In an instant, a knife cut across the throat of the Namuqiao defender. When the hand was released, the body fell silent without saying a word, and the eyes were still open. It’s so big, it seems that I don’t understand how I died, but the most terrible thing is the imperial army soldiers who used to press their hands under the thatch of the carriage. As soon as they raised their hands, the thatch on the carriage was thrown off and their hands were One more imperial crossbow with the bowstring stretched open, and one arrow shot into the body of a nearby Harvey soldier, sputtering the exploded blood red,
"Kill, take the bridge down!" The officer who led the team yelled vigorously, shooting out with the powerful crossbow in his hand, and getting in on a Harvey soldier's back, bringing up a **** flower, bloody. A metal arrow emerged from the back of this Harvey soldier, and the cold metal luster mixed with his blood, and fell to the ground together "Swish! Swish! Swish!" It was similar to the situation of this Harvey soldier. The Harvey army fell to the ground with arrows. Some of them were shot through the lungs. They couldn't die for a while, their body twitched, and the pink foam was constantly spitting out their mouths. They still wanted to reach out and pick up the weapon that fell on hand,
"Run! The imperial army is coming"
A Harvey soldier was frightened, turned around and ran backwards. At the front of the mouth, a muffled sound suddenly sounded, and a group of black armored imperial horses were heading here. The soldiers swarmed, and the soldiers were all frightened. An imperial crossbow shot in from behind him. The soldier’s body swayed and fell into the river at a height of 60 meters below the bridge. After struggling, he couldn’t see it.
"My lord, everything is going well, our army has already taken the Nammu Bridge." Under the blue sky, an imperial swift cavalry rushed up to an undulating mound, and stared at the thin one standing in front of him. The figure reports "Okay, the order continues, the Fifth Banner Regiment and the Eighth Banner Regiment will immediately move closer to the Nammu Bridge, so that the logistics department will transport all the Thor and Ballistas of our army to the Nammu Bridge as quickly as possible." Reposti looked up from a distance, with a grinning smile on the corner of his mouth. Of course, a wooden bridge could not stop the Harvey army from escaping, but if the Harvey army found that they could not break through the Nammu Bridge~IndoMTL.com~ they would choose to go downstream. However, a large alluvial area is the best battlefield for the imperial cavalry. Others may not dare to do so, but he is Reposti, who dragged down the 100,000 Southern Allied Forces to death with a mere 30,000 imperial cavalry. !
