Prince Harvey Kristel, wearing a slightly old armor, looked back to the east from the heights of Harvey’s Palace. A responsible officer in the city was reporting the battle to him, Carrester. Er's face was a little bit blue and tight. Leaning forward and pressing the fence of the palace balcony, the corners of his mouth twitched twice from time to time.
King Harvey is not there, Naberei is not, Crown Prince Kristel is the backbone of the entire capital
Ikal’s army approached the city, and the wall was destined to be unstoppable, because the wall of King Harvey’s capital was more than ten miles long, and the strength of the city was only more than 20,000 people. It would be a joke to want to defend the wall with such strength. The Karl Army came in aggressively, with a strength of between 50,000 and 60,000. It would not be able to launch a full-scale attack on the entire city wall. Otherwise, the city wall would have been destroyed. Fortunately, the city wall was completely free from the Ikal Army for several hours, otherwise the city would be afraid of it. Defense is difficult to deploy
"His Royal Highness, the patriarchs of all families in the city are waiting in the lobby"
"Tell them that the main force of Lord Naberley has returned to the army. Everyone is holding on, otherwise the Ikar will break the capital, they will be the first to bear the brunt. They are not fighting against my Harvey royal family at this moment, but for them. "Fighting for life and death" Krystel took a deep breath, turned around and said to the attendant officer. His heart was also a sweat for Nabrey’s dangerous move.
In this raid and counter raid, Naberei apparently emptied the forces in the royal capital, but in fact, a powerful new army was secretly left behind
That is the private army of the nobles. Although the private army of the nobles of the Harvey Kingdom is not as large as the nobles of the Aden Kingdom, the large ones have thousands of people and the few dozens. It is precisely because of the control of the number that these private soldiers are mostly Well-equipped and extremely loyal to the owner,
Some time ago, due to the strong raid by the Ikar Army, the Harvey area defense line was almost swept away. In addition to lack of preparation, another important reason was that Harvey ordered all defenders to gather at the capital because Harvey It is known that the Ikars have been planning for a long time, and as former subordinates, many officers of the Ikar Army have served in the important towns of Harvey. They know well about the weak defense of the Harvey Army, so the Ikar Army's raid is like a hot knife. Cutting the butter can easily break through the layers of the Harvey’s defenses,
Facing an opponent who is familiar with you, the only way is to reshuffle the cards
To adjust and repair the entire defense in a short period of time is nothing short of idiotic dreams, so Nabere, a master of defense, proposed
"Since it is impossible to rebuild the defensive line, then simply withdraw the active force back to the capital area", because compared to other areas, the Ikal people have the weakest understanding of the Harvey capital area Yes, and although the Harvey military has always used the Ikar soldiers as cannon fodder, they are not so eager to participate in the military defense of the Harvey capital.
"The ultimate goal of the Ikal's raid is the capital of Harvey. As long as King Harvey does not fall, the Ikal will only be the result of their defeat."
As a defensive master, Naberley made such a firm judgment in order to inspire the low morale of the army. It was just that Naberley and Harvey's military did not expect this large-scale military retreat. In order to protect themselves, a large number of nobles from all over the world moved with the wind to protect themselves. The troops who followed the retreat flooded into the Harvey capital. If it was only one area, it would be enough, but gathered two thirds of the nobles on the Harvey plateau Families, these families who chose to stay in Harvey Plateau at the beginning are basically old-fashioned families over a hundred years old. They have a considerable estate industry and a large number of private soldiers in the area. Now these families have gathered in Harvey's capital. The total number of aristocratic private armies has reached an astonishing 30,000 people.
It’s just this force, even the Harvey military can’t mobilize it
Naberley once wanted to propose at the Royal Council that these noble private armies should be organized into two reserve legions. This is a huge supplement to the strength of the Harvey capital. It only revealed a little bit of wind, and it was only the next day. As soon as I went out, I was attacked by a large number of nobles. Before I arrived at the military department, I had to hide back to my mansion and promised that only when the soldiers came to the city, they would let the families mobilize private soldiers to participate in the war, which was regarded as calming down the anger. , Otherwise, even if you are a hero in the defense of the royal capital, you can also offend three quarters of Harvey’s nobles
Such power is impossible to use. If these nobles are not forced to survive, these noble private armies will not go to the battlefield!
Prince Naberei led the main force of the Royal Capital Army to counterattack and took away 150,000. The remaining soldiers, which were less than 20,000, remained in the Royal Capital. They were all incomplete and rested troops. I really thought Ha Is the defensive power in King Wei’s capital in neutral? Wrong, how could Nabere as a master of defense fail to see this fatal weakness, intelligence is only intelligence, and Ikar’s intelligence personnel naturally ignored the private army in the hands of the Harvey nobles,
Don’t come down here! These families will not talk about their private soldiers calling out
Prince Harvey Kristel felt the coolness from the metal hilt in the palm of his hand, with bloodshot eyes retracted from a distance, and walked into the palace hall in front of him. Inside, there was a crowd of people in various costumes. When the Harvey nobles saw Crown Prince Kristel, they immediately gathered around. Everyone looked anxious. No one knew whether they could keep the capital this time.
Sure enough, under the panic, the Harvey nobles have no option to retreat. Their family and belongings are now in the royal capital. The life and death of the royal capital are closely connected with them, and now the war has spread. When they arrived in their residential area, last night, the Ikar Army mobilized 20,000 fresh troops and prepared a siege ladder. In order to prevent the sentries from discovering the reflections of their weapons, the sharp knives in their hands were wrapped in black cloth. Under the cover of night, they ran barefoot on the Shubo neighborhood, the center of the war. Ikar soldiers used ten siege ladders to support the houses on both sides of the street at the same time, and then the infantrymen stepped up on the unstoppable edge ladders. When the sentry found them and issued a warning, the first group of nearly a hundred Ikar soldiers had already arrived! They were so brave that they quickly hacked to death the few sentinels, and there was a loud noise in the darkness!
But at this most critical moment, it can only be said that God still did not abandon the defenders of King Harvey. A private noble army patrolled and found Ikar soldiers in the Shubo neighborhood. Everyone's complexion turned pale, and there was no need to order. The private soldiers rushed forward and started a confrontation with the Ikar soldiers. One side is bound to win, but the other side is desperately trying to defend. The blade is against the white blade, and the two sides are inseparable.
"Kill! Take back the lost ones"
Ikal’s army has an advantage on one side, but the noble private soldiers have another advantage. Many of the private soldiers are martial arts masters! The combat power is far greater than that of ordinary soldiers, and the equipment is much better than that of the Ikal army on the opposite side. In the close combat conflict in the narrow area, the Ikal army was chopped down and retreated. A large number of people and corpses came from the heights of the houses on both sides of the street. Falling down like dumplings, with eyesight, relying on hand-to-hand combat, the noble private army defeated the raid of Ikar soldiers, and finally had to withdraw in embarrassment.
"What's the matter, where did these soldiers come from!" Prince Feng Muerjie also discovered this problem, and added the reserve team to the flesh and blood mill in front, but it was like being thrown into the deep pool. ,
"It seems to be a private soldier raised by the Harvey nobles"
"Private soldiers? Are you kidding me, are you saying that my tens of thousands of soldiers were blocked by Harvey's private soldiers?" Prince Von Muerjie was obviously shocked when he heard the report. There is a dispute about whether to rescue or surprise the king. The Harvey Army suddenly counterattacked, and the two main armies of the Ikal Army collapsed and withdrawn. Suddenly, the commander of the Ikal Army was unable to determine whether the Harvey Army was. Take a risk, or do you want to fish in troubled waters? "The so-called fleet of fighters is like a flash of lightning in a rainstorm. The person who can grasp is the famous general." The shortcomings of King Ikar's absence in the army are also revealed at this moment. Therefore, in the army of Ikar Divided into two factions, in the rescue of the army and the choice of taking the opportunity to decide the outcome
The Ikar Army was finally shaken by the huge temptation and chose to drive straight forward. The situation of the Fifth Army and the Eighth Army could not be reversed. The result of the forced rescue was a life-and-death battle with the Harvey Army. In the case of the Fifth Army and the Eighth Army, the original strength of the army has disappeared. Instead, the Harvey Army took this battle and the morale of the army was greatly improved. The direct decisive battle was obviously detrimental to our army! "
"Take Harvey's capital and complete the battle with the first battle. If you miss this opportunity, it will be very difficult to want Harvey to go crazy next time."
"Now King Harvey has less than 20,000 troops. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity will be condemned by God! Moreover, strategically, it is the wisest to end this war as soon as possible, because our army has been fighting since the beginning of the war. Although it swept all the way and was invincible, it only took half a month to come to the royal capital, but because the advancement was too fast, it fell into the trap of the Harvey, and the occupied area could hardly be effectively controlled. Many logistics materials of the army are still needed. It was transported from Ikal, because it was pierced too deeply. When our army realized that they had been trapped by the Harvey, it was no longer able to adjust the strength of the troops. The King Harvey was close at hand, instead of making adjustments at this time. To stabilize the occupied area with troops, it is better to attack King Harvey in one go. As long as King Harvey falls, the will to resist in the occupied area will naturally give up resistance"
The Ikar Army finally chose the adventure battle, but the Ikar Army did not expect that the Harvey Capital, which was clearly only less than 20,000, would have burst out of combat power that would make it difficult for their 50,000 army to break through quickly
"Is there a mistake in the intelligence? If the Harvey army in the city really only has 20,000 people, I am willing to cut off my head!" Ikal’s generals are also getting more and more depressed. Under King Harvey’s city, I thought that King Harvey in front of me was a piece of fat to be slaughtered, but I didn’t expect that this is not only fat, but a hornet’s nest,
I can’t see it on the outside, just give it a poke, all the ghosts and monsters came out
From the full-scale start of the offensive, after more than ten hours of fierce fighting, the Ikar Army’s offensive continued. They dropped layers upon layers of corpses in various neighborhoods in the city, even though the commander was still there. Constantly deploying troops to condemn the dispatch of fresh troops, but the soldiers are obviously tired physically and mentally, but the progress of the offensive is very unsatisfactory~IndoMTL.com~ So far, the army has lost more than 20,000 battles, but it has only been swept In two blocks, Harvey people, both civilians and soldiers, resisted desperately, turning all the streets into battlefields. Every block in the next block has to be paid a considerable price. One after another, vigorous teams are sent up to become alive. After removing the corpse, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and there was a rotten and soft fleshy blood under the feet, and the blood flowed into a river,
The morale of Ikar's army is getting worse and worse, but the order rang in the ears and they had to move forward, so everyone started to linger and moved forward slowly, hoping that they could not see clearly at night to end the offensive. , Or other troops are progressing faster, don’t let your turn to climb that "meat grinder",
The momentum of scrambling and taking the lead at the beginning of the raid disappeared.
"The opponent's offensive has begun to weaken. In this battle, our army will win."
The crown prince Kristel has been able to perceive this, his expression is solemn, his eyes swept across the nobles in the hall, and he said in a very confident voice
