Power and Empire Chapter 1287: Scarlet Silver Sparrow (9)

Yinque Hill is named after the large undulating terrain and clusters of silver ques. The overall topography of Yinque Hill is like a rolling concave basin, hilly undulating hills, like a layer Layers of turbulent waves, under the squeeze of the earth, they look toward the north, extending to the edge of the silver bird hill. The undulating woodland, and some low cliffs full of holes are the silver bird's best Favorite environment

For the natural creatures living here, Silver Bird Hill is a very pleasant and peaceful place. If it is white and sunny, the bright sun shines through the shade of the trees, the sky is so pure, and the sun is so. The splendid and cheerful silver bird flocks are like a fairy tale, passing across the sky of Yinque Hill, and finally perches on the hibernating cliff of Yinque Hill. Even in winter, the trees on the hills are still very lush, and the hills are undulating heavily. Outside the embankment, the structure is distinct, forming a good contrast with the bright grassland between the undulating hills.

If it is a rainy night, the rustling of raindrops on the leaves is enough to touch a moist intoxication. Such a place is a beauty that can't help but be intoxicated for any creature in nature. ,

But for Riposti, who is standing on the side of the silver bird hill road, the life and death of the 20,000 army will also be fixed on this rainy night tonight. His sturdy body is standing on a high place, letting the rain drop. It hit the body and flowed down the smooth armor to the ground, surrounded by raindrops hitting the rushing sound of the bushes in the forest. Reposti looked at the sky and the rain was obviously smaller than before.

The lightning above the head still flashed one by one, the silver light chaotically across the sky, and the scene below lit up from time to time for a few seconds, then plunged into darkness, and then lit up again,

From where Reposti is, it can be clearly seen that on the route of the slowly evacuating expeditionary force, the Norman pursuit troops pressed up from behind almost without hesitation. The sound of rumbling horseshoes spread from the opposite side of the mountain road. Come, in the rainy night, it's like the sound of countless huge waves hitting the cliff wall and being smashed. With the huge noise, countless black armored cavalry under the light brought by lightning, like a flood that broke a dam Rushing out from the mountain pass, densely like a black cloud rushing in

"It seems that your temporary change plan is right!"

The scene under the lightning caused the deputy commander Jaglins to take a deep breath next to him, with a solemn spirit on his face, saying, "If we follow the previous plan, we will start a full-scale battle in Silver Bird Hill. It is very likely. We didn’t even have a chance to retreat to Yinque Mountain. From the movement of the Norman cavalry who had poured into the pass, we can see that although there are less than half of the Norman cavalry entering now, they have already begun to disperse to the wings. Obviously, it is waiting until the main force has all passed through the narrow entrance, and then launched a full-scale siege attack on the previous target. Even if the exhausted expeditionary force is tenacious, it will inevitably be a dead end in such a situation!"

"Hehe. This is probably God’s blessing." Reposti smiled bitterly. "If it weren’t for you to temporarily change and evacuate from Baiqiu, I’m afraid or can’t think of this level, although I never believe in fate. But this victory tonight is a gift from God. Without this rain, without this darkness, tens of thousands of troops have set up ambushes in this kind of bushes with only the waist height. I am afraid that no one will say it. Believe it!"

"So, this time we will win!" Yaglins nodded deeply in agreement, and said hesitantly, "It's just that the troop that served as the blocker has lost a lot! Anyway, they are just some who haven't been. The recruits on the battlefield have neither experienced the cruel blood war nor the experience of fighting against enemy cavalry groups. To be honest, if they hadn't been so resolute, I would never agree. Even so, I am still a little worried. , Once our army fully attacks, how many of the decoy troops in front of the Normandy cavalry can survive!"

"Since they have chosen to become soldiers of the Empire, this is a lesson they must learn!" Reposti's eyes flashed with an inexplicable luster, and he snorted heavily, "You and I are not the nanny of the expeditionary army, expeditionary The army didn’t come here for sightseeing either,

Although they have the conditions to be excellent fighters, brave, tenacity, bloody, courage to sacrifice, but they lack one thing, that is, the military spirit that the Imperial Army should have. Only a truly cruel battlefield can make them The blood and courage in their hearts are completely released, allowing them to truly find their own army soul. They are the avengers of their people and the conquerors of the empire. They must learn that there is no victory without sacrifice! "

"It's just... isn't it too cruel!" Jaglins said with a face and ugly, "Cruel?" Reposti gave him a meaningful look and said, "Rather than wait until they are really In the battle of life and death, they discovered their own fatal weakness. It is better to let them get the training they should have in this tragic, but only forward battle. Only the troops that dare to face the blood and sacrifice are the real needs of the empire. Only soldiers are qualified to face the main Normandy forces behind, not a semi-finished product!","Order the teams to prepare to attack, this time, I will crush them completely!"On the mountain road below, I saw that the team behind was already Having completely entered the mountain pass, Hei Xie Zhimu began to order the teams to form a team,

He strangled the irritable war horse with his hand, his gaze swept across the darkness in front of him, then raised his head to look at the sky, lightning flashed across, illuminating his face, and making his chilling triangular eyes. Squinted into a line,

I don’t know why, he always feels a strange cold on the rainy night tonight, or the thunder and lightning above his head are so frequent that it makes him feel a little upset. This feeling is like a kind of inner heart. Depressed and suffocated, I urgently need to vent it,

With the same number of cavalry, against the same number of infantry, they were entangled for more than 2 hours. Such a record is not a victory worth celebrating for Zhimu, who has always been arrogant.

And what made him feel most unbearable was that he realized that in his heart, he actually had a kind of admiration for the lowly and cowardly Salanders. To a certain extent, he also had to admit, these The performance of the Salanders is absolutely worthy of the title of warrior!

And this feeling is not only on him, but on all the Normandy soldiers participating in the battle tonight.

If it was before, the Norman cavalry had rushed up in a swarm, chopped up all these exhausted Salanders, killed them all, and then cut off their heads and stringed them in front of the horse as a capital of show off.

But now, all the Normandy cavalry have chosen to be silent. They stopped their horses in a row and expelled a huge impact fan. The Normandy cavalry riding on the war horse focused on looking at the distance ahead with a complicated gaze. , Salander, still standing in the mud all over the floor

These Salanders have all been injured, and some even have difficulty standing, but they support each other and use all their strength to support their bodies. The heavy rain and mud make them like a frozen statue. ·No one panicked and chose to escape, and no one chose to kneel on the ground timidly to beg for mercy. They just stood like this.·Awaiting the Norman cavalry with their eyes and broken weapons "Is this still a human?"

In the eyes of the Norman Cavalry, not only the bloodthirsty killings, but also the existence of something called respect. These lowly and cowardly Salanders in their hearts acted more like one at this moment. The soldiers" are ready to attack on the flat line! One is not left!" The captains of the Normandy cavalry raised their weapons and shouted to the men who had lined up,

"Brushing" in the sound of the metal collision, the long spears of the Normandy cavalry began to be erected in a row. A Normandy cavalry hesitated, and at the moment when the spear was erected, his spear was slightly tapped down, he This move attracted the attention of many Norman cavalry. For a while, some low voices remembered that a strange atmosphere spread in the Norman cavalry queue "Harrison, what are you doing!"

A Normandy cavalry captain ran over in desperation, and hit the soldier's armor with a whip in his hand, and whispered in his mouth, "You are paying a warrior's tribute to these cowardly Salanders." "My lord, there are only enemies in my eyes, no Salanders!" The Norman cavalry **** sè solemnly responded, "Or they may be Salanders, but now they are what we need to do our best. Enemy, this is worthy of such courtesy!"

"You will be severely punished for this!"

The Captain of the Normandy Cavalry screamed angrily. At this time, the order of a full-scale attack from above was also issued, and the entire queue began to move forward. The Captain of the Normandy Cavalry did not dare to delay, and hurried back to the leftmost side of the queue where he should be. , Because once a full charge is launched, the entire queue will follow him,

"Go ahead, crush them!" The roar of the Normandy cavalry came like a sea,

In the darkness not far away, a trace of light that would never appear penetrated the dark night sky. It was a red spot of light. The torch penetrated with crude oil, even in the rain, still burns very much. The light is bright, the raindrops hit it, making a light pop, and the person who raised the torch is Riposti

"Look, what is that?"

A marching Norman cavalry pointed at the distant fire and said, "It should be a torch!" His companion replied with some dissatisfaction, but soon, his mouth that hadn't completely closed Where is the stiffness, I saw in the place where the fire appeared, countless circular light spots, like stars rising up in the sky, rolled down from the heights of the hills on both sides, with light like hell. The regiment slammed into the densely arranged position in front of the queue, "Attention, there is an ambush!"

The front team of Normandy rang out in exclamation and suddenly became a mess. In a short period of time, the fireballs that rolled down from both sides rolled all the way down from the heights, and finally fell apart in the violent impact. The broken sparks contaminated dozens of cavalry nearby,

The monster flames quickly ignited from their contaminated position, lighting up people and horses into fireballs, making a stern and terrible cry, and the ignited war horses sprinted around, the whole The queue was completely disrupted, "This...

How is it possible! "Zhimu, who is in the back team, was completely silly looking at the fireballs rolling down on both sides. He pinched his thigh fiercely. He couldn't figure out how these fireballs were caught in such a majestic rain. Ignited?

Well, even if it is barely ignited, why is it still burning so violently? Even if the rain falls on it, it doesn't mean to stop at all. Instead, it expands rapidly, cutting my cavalry into several pieces.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhimu really would like to slap himself in the face and wake himself up early from this nightmare. The blazing fire shone on his face full of horror, and the raindrops hit him with biting coldness. On his cheeks, both cold and hot reminded him·This is not a dream, this is the real battlefield,

All this changed too quickly, completely out of his common sense. In just a few moments, hundreds of fireballs with long smoke tails added up to the front team and squadron of his cavalry to exceed 6. Thousands of Normandy cavalry were all shrouded together, and the fireballs rolled down and brought fire and explosions like a huge circle of light, spreading the gorgeous petals of death on the ground, everything was like a dream, and it was extremely tragic. The team is completely messed up, "Quick, order the front team to withdraw!" Zhimu shouted loudly to the messenger cavalry behind him. However, his shouting has not yet been finished. I saw countless numbers on the top of the hill where the fireball fell just now. The figures came out like magic. "Kill!" Thousands of expeditionary troops ambushing on both sides stood up neatly with their hands, countless cold lights are like torrential rain pouring down from the flat lines of the hills on both sides, covered by light spots. In the sky of the long narrow mountain road and the flames still burning below, the position of the Normandy cavalry has long been taken clearly. Under the fierce blow of the shè hands, the Normandy cavalry panicked in the fire, like crashing into an invisible block. Huge sickles fell from the horses one after another,

The war horse in the arrow threw the cavalry above painfully. The powerful impact of the crossbow arrow made the war horse with the arrowhead run around uncontrollably. The Norman cavalry tumbling on the ground, the horses hoof in chaos The Normandy cavalry, who stepped into pieces of meat, was caught off guard. Like the harvested wheatgrass, the arrows fell continuously, and the sound of the strong bowstring vibrating even shocked the entire space.

It’s a weird feeling. It’s like the air is boiling at this moment. If you don’t experience it yourself, it’s hard to imagine the trembling and tearing of tens of thousands of bowstrings at the same time. How shocking it is. Metal meteors gleamed with chilling light in the air, and then turned into a howling rain of death. Often the Norman cavalry in front had just fallen off, and the crossbow arrows falling all over the sky fell from the heads of many fallen and wounded Norman cavalry. These Norman cavalry, who are not dead yet, or who are glad that they have escaped a disaster, shuffled into hedgehogs full of arrows, "Help!" The screams and screams of the wounded soldiers who knew in the flames and blood, It often turns into a chilling silence at this moment. The corpses all over the floor are soaked in the rain and fall into the mud. The bright red human blood dyes the mud and mud on the ground into a face,

"Go on, rush on if you don't want to die!"

In a panic, surrounded by flames front and back, some Norman cavalry began to charge blindly to the low hills on both sides, and they were greeted by the iron-headed giant arrow over a meter long from the ballista. , A crossbow arrow made of pure metal, made these Normandy cavalry like a gourd, flying directly from the battle horse, rolling down to the ground behind, the huge arrow with the cavalry corpse deeply inserted into the ground,

Under the scouring of heavy rain, countless small streams of red water flowed along the gully in the soil, "Encircle! One does not stay!" Reposti snorted coldly, looking at the battlefield. He already felt it. This ten thousand Norman forward cavalry was crucified here by himself,

As the torches were raised again, the main force of the expedition on both sides began to compress toward the middle, and countless expeditionary soldiers jumped out from both sides to "kill" countless expeditionary soldiers. There were terrible shock waves everywhere, dense forest-like long spears and The arrow bombarded fiercely again on the desperate Normandy cavalry, like waves crashing on the hard rock wall, turning into splashes of scary red, "pupupupu" the sound of the spear pierced into the body and the bones were broken. The rain drops one after another, this is the waves of flesh and blood and screams in the killing.

The motivated expeditionary army pressed on with all its strength. Compared with the completely helpless Norman cavalry, the dense spear formation stabbed to death the Norman cavalry in a semi-panic state.

The mass deaths of the main force made Zhimu of the rear team see blood in his eyes, but there was no way. He had never encountered such an aggrieved one. He looked at the corpses of his subordinates, layer after layer. The road ahead is full, blood gurgling into a creek, but all I can do is regret and curse here,

But this is war. Under the full ambush of the opponent ~ IndoMTL.com~ Except for the 1,000 cavalry in the rear group, almost all the other 6,000 people are trapped. If reinforcements are forced, the final result will be one. Can't live

"My lord, the front team and the squadron have been wiped out, please evacuate immediately"

The captain of the Normandy cavalry guard, covered in blood and desperate, ran up and down. He was lying on the dead pile and pretending to be dead. He crawled all the way without being noticed, so no one noticed him. , Even if it weren’t for him to report his name, Zhimu would not recognize him

"Do you just give up like this?"

Zhongmu's eyes flashed a dazed look. In the ring of fire in the distance, broken limbs and debris abound, bright red blood infiltrated the soil, and dense rings of fire, large and small, still burning, piled up like mountains. The corpses, the dagger spears inserted on the battlefield, the broken spears and epees everywhere, the corpses of his men and horses are piled up like a mountain, and the enemies of the black sè are pouring here like chao water.

"My lord, if you don't leave, it will be too late!" The captain of the guard made him recover from his trance,

Zhimu took one last look at the skeletal battlefield and closed his eyes tightly before shouting angrily, "Everyone follow me, get out of the mountain road!"
