Power and Empire Chapter 1648: Horizon (3)
"The raging fire ignited in the southwestern capital did not end the tragic death of the Southwest. On the contrary, as the fire shocked the entire Gaul Empire, there was another one rising above the horizon northwest of Gaul. The powerful empire that started to step into the southwest, the death of the southwest, the turmoil of the earth, the real front of the two empires, the war is only human, nature has witnessed the rise and fall of a dynasty on this land countless times ,
When the tip of the June gang is slightly hot, it is covered by the wild flowers like wild flowers, and it becomes dark green on the blue hills, and the birds go through the dense riverside woods like arrowheads, at the other end of the horizon, The hoof of the Falcon Cavalry stepped into the southwest! This time, the 200,000 army battle flag is no longer the northwest coast that was hidden in the early stage, but the empire, the Falcon Empire! "-----Excerpt from "Analysis of the Early Battles of the Falcon Empire: Southwest Death!" by Tobafield, a senior campaign researcher at the Imperial Military Academy
The rain outside the tent is hazy, the raindrops hit the top of the tent, the mountains are like dais, dragging a euphemistic sideline, the camp of 200,000 troops holding it horizontally, and the mountains and plains are full of Northwest Army camps, dragged out A huge arc with a length of more than a dozen miles corresponds to the southwestern army flag, which is also shrouded in rainwater, which is listless on the opposite side.
Except for a small number of sentries who are still holding their posts, most of the soldiers of the Southwest Army are hiding in the barracks. Every day, soldiers of the Southwest Army escape from the front line. There are more and more empty camps. At first there were a few people, and then There were dozens of people, hundreds of people, and even thousands of people appeared in the end,
In just six days, there were more than 100,000 Southwestern Army soldiers missing 30,000. On average, as many as 5,000 soldiers flee every day, which is comparable to war damages.
The generals even ordered the supervising team to dissuade them at first, but facing the thousands of eyes of the soldiers eager to go home, the soldiers of the supervising team who were in charge of blocking looked embarrassed, and the hand holding the bow and arrow couldn't pull the bowstring. , Even to the point where deserters appeared in even the supervising team,
The generals know that the heart of the Southwest Army is irreparable
The reason for such a large-scale escape was not only from the fact that the coach, Murphy O'Born, ignored the critical situation of the Northwest Army’s close proximity, and brazenly took away the most elite troops in the army, causing the morale of the entire Southwest Army to drop to a freezing point. There are also internal conflicts caused by high-profile surrenders from the Northwest!
On the second day after Murphy Bryan hurriedly returned, Saron, the famous northwestern general, stepped into the promise of the 100,000 Southwest Army alone. This sturdy fellow, once again made people worry about the Southwest Army, instructed. What a fierceness is. Facing hundreds of Southwest Army officers and soldiers, he can’t wait to smash his gaze directly. This guy can still use that turbid and fierce one-eyed face to sweep across the black and crush a group of Southwestern Army officers without fear.
In front of hundreds of angry eyes, the corners of his mouth grinned slightly, and he directly left a sentence, "Your spirits look good. I came with my Lord’s wish for peace. I hope you don’t let this Hope to fail"
"Peace? Are you kidding me, what you are stepping on now is the land in the southwest of me!" said a worthy general in the southwest sarcastically
"Yeah, stop talking nonsense. If you have the ability to fight, the Southwest Army has no fear of death!" The officers below are ridiculed. This guy who entered the camp alone is too arrogant, he has already arrived. Regarding the 100,000 Southwest Army as nothing, especially the one-eyed one full of killing intent, everyone who has been seen by him feels a shock from the soul
"A battle? Hehe, everyone is so loud! "Saron just smiled coldly as he listened to the voices of the group. He had already noticed that the clamors were the middle and lower-level officers, and the real ones A general, until this moment has been silent,
"You guys, if you really want to fight!"
Saron walked up to the table in the middle of the Southwest Army’s tent, took out a letter of negotiation from his arms, and placed it on the table again." Within 8 days, either surrender or face our lord Vicia The 200,000 motivated Northwest Army under the Falcon’s brutal devouring. Please note that this is not a threat, because you do not have such qualifications. You should know that although the Southwest Army has more than one hundred thousand, it is very important to our lord Vicki Yahun. As far as the eagle is concerned, it’s just a breeze to defeat you."
"Nonsense, my southwest is solid and the army is like a cloud, why do you need your northwest to save! This guy is too arrogant, is it really bullying that the Southwest Army has no strong generals who dare to fight?" A young Southwest Army who saw this scene The officer’s face turned pale, and his shouting voice trembled slightly. There were a lot of people like him, and each of them looked as if they were about to burn, but the hesitating bosses looked gloomy, so most of them He didn't move, but if his gaze could turn into a sharp sword to kill people, Salong would have been cut by thousands of swords.
Saron glanced at the young officer with a cold gaze, then glanced at a few senior Southwest Army generals who were still calm, took a deep breath, and the breath of the warriors who evaded thousands of troops spewed out. , Shouted sharply
"As a soldier, it’s a good thing to be bloody, but if you can win by just using your tongue, then you still need the brave combat of the soldiers. I have no doubt about your courage and determination to fight to the death, but death is not terrible. The terrible thing is that death is worthless. The current situation in the southwest is rotten. Apart from Your Majesty Falcon, who has the ability to protect the entire southwest in the chaotic battle between Murphy's Army and the Janissaries! You can stop our lord for one more day, It is your Southwest that will suffer in the end! Whether you like it or not, it is a foregone conclusion that our master will be in the Southwest"
"What do you mean by this sentence? "Finally, a senior general of the Southwest Army couldn't help but ask
" Murphy O'Brien is committed to revenge. The Janissaries defended the southwestern capital. The war was one, and the two sides fought desperately. Have you never thought about the Southwestern civilians involved in this whirlpool! Under the turmoil of the military, you still What right do you have here to brazenly clamor for a battle with my 200,000 army in the northwest? So, don’t talk about jokes like World War I! "Saron’s face was calm, and his one-eyed scorching swept across hundreds of southwestern troops on the opposite side. All the officers’ faces changed color,
" said it all, and it’s meaningless to go on! You are all smart people. Do you let this civil strife ruin the Southwest or welcome a responsible new owner for the Southwest? In 8 days, it’s a battle or a surrender. , You decide for yourself! "Saron withdrew his gaze from everyone, pretending to deepen what the fat man told him, and relayed it again,
The Southwest Army, who was still enthusiastic just now, is like an eggplant beaten by frost. The collective silence is because there are hundreds of Southwestern officers present, and the conditions proposed by the Northwest quickly spread throughout the entire Southwest Army. , Which immediately caused great upheavals in the Southwest Army
"In any case, as soldiers, we should fight the invaders to the end!" A young southwestern officer with flax hair, standing on a high platform in the middle of the camp with an angry expression, lined up below The soldiers of the Southwest Army shouted,
But in response to his response, there was very little response, the final battle? What a joke! The faces of the soldiers were numb, most of the soldiers looked at the officer as if they were watching a farce
"Adult"
Finally, a soldier looked at the officer yelling slogans on it and said unconvinced in the queue, "His relatives are facing the suffering of the war, and they may wither like weeds on the roadside at any time. Our house is here. Burned in the fire, but the adults are shouting here to fight to the death with the unknown enemy. Is it too ridiculous for the adults? Even if it is a deadly battle, we have to know the meaning of the deadly battle!"
"Asshole, are you criticizing Shangguan?"
The young officer looked furious. When did the soldier question the superior in such a tone, he pointed at the soldier and shouted angrily, "I suspect you are a spy who came in from the Northwest. Call the supervising team Come, catch this agent and hang him immediately! Hearing no, catch this agent immediately, why don't you move? Do you want to collectively violate the order of resistance? "No one of the soldiers moved, the officer ran in angrily. Caught in the queue, one hand grabbed the scared soldier's white face by the collar, and brutally forcibly dragged him out of the queue
"Can’t let him take Kadido away. Last time Anzabi was imprisoned and executed like this"
I don’t know who yelled. The soldiers standing next to him suddenly came around in a very tacit understanding. The officer looked at the soldiers under his command with a flustered expression and cursed with a trembling tone, "What do you want to do? Know the collective disobedience. Plus the consequences of obstructing the chief... Ah" before the officer finished speaking, he was hit with a fist in the eye socket. In the screams, the whole person leaned back, and the person behind was on his knee again. With a kick, the officer fell to the ground completely
"Beat him, beat him to death!" someone in the crowd shouted, this officer has the habit of beating soldiers on weekdays, and many people hate him to death. If there is such a chance of revenge, naturally they will not let go. However, once there is a first person, there will be a second one, and soon more and more people join in. After ten minutes, the entire squadron is like a squadron and scattered, leaving the whole body covered. It's blood, the officer who has passed out. That night, the entire squadron 765 people fled collectively. This time it was like opening a magic box that could not be closed.
The tragedy in the southwest capital shocked the entire southwest. In just one day, the two armies lost more than half of their battles. More than 200,000 civilians were swept in, and more than 100,000 civilians fell victim to the fighting. The raging fire completely destroyed The southwestern capital is the first prosperous southwestern China with a history of 300 years.
The news came that the Southwest Army, which was already disintegrated, finally surrendered to the northwest.
"Your Majesty!" Salon took the letter of allegiance from the Southwest Army and happily walked into the tent where the fat man was. It was the ninth day.
"You picked up a lot of money on your walk today? So excited, my General Salon!" The fat man did not look up from the document he was reviewing, and the report on the battle of the Southwest Capital was in his hands. , Judging from the battle report, in the Southwest War, the commanders of the two sides had their own surprises, and finally a draw came!
"How is that possible!" The corner of Salon's mouth chuckled and said, "This time I came here to confess my goodness to Your Majesty!"
"Annunciation?" The fat man raised his head, glanced at the somewhat self-satisfied Salon, raised the report in his hand, and slowly said, "This is the report of the battle of the Southwestern Capital. Murphy Obernma stepped on the walls of the Southwestern Capital. , The other side sent civilians to block the road, and then launched a heavy cavalry counterattack, Murphy Obern Street ambush, the rapid response of the two sides, it is indeed dazzling, it is really quite exciting, excluding those who caused a large number of civilian casualties Factors, this time the Southwest Capital offensive and defensive battle is a classic case, don’t you want to take a look?"
"What, I have brought news that makes your majesty happy too!" Salong saw that the fat man didn't even mean to ask himself at all, and immediately looked very upset. He took out a copy from his arms and signed it with the Southwest Army. The document signed by the general-level officer was placed in front of the fat man, "Your Majesty, no matter how exciting the battle for the Southwest Capital, is it even more exciting than this document for the collective return of the Southwest Army?"
"On the ninth day, your speed is a little slower!" The fat man glanced at the book of allegiance on the table and rolled his eyes. It seemed that the book of allegiance that represented more than one hundred thousand Southwest Army in front of him was not as good as his hand. Half of the reported weight
"What, your Majesty, for this, I, Saron, risked being smashed into pieces and entered the camp of one hundred thousand Southwest Army alone!" Saron said with a grieved expression, "I thought of being in full view that day. Under the circumstances, the subordinates forced a calm scene, and now I am still a little scared. If there was a person in the Southwest Army who moved, maybe the subordinate's more than one hundred catties would be accounted for inside."
"Nonsense, if it's not risky, why would I need you to Salong!" The fat man sneered indifferently, and closed the letter of allegiance in his hand. The battalion, coupled with the bloodless attachment of more than one hundred thousand Southwestern soldiers, your reputation in the Southwest will soon be so popular in the Southwest. If this is not the case, you Salong would like to become the governor of the Southwest appointed by the empire, I am afraid that you can still be in a short time Let the Southwest Army be completely convinced by you!"
" Your majesty means that I am the Governor of the Southwest..."Saron heard her eyes bulging, her breathing became rapid, and her body was trembling slightly, Governor of the Southwest! Your Majesty wants to appoint himself as Governor of the Southwest! Salong's body was trembling by the great news.
He is desperate to come to the Obaro continent this time. Isn’t he aiming to grab more military exploits, and hope that one day, he can achieve the same status as the other governors, but he didn’t expect this. The return on the second mission would be so great. As His Majesty Falcon said, he has subdued hundreds of thousands of Southwestern Army on his behalf. It is quite appropriate for him to defend the Southwest, but this opportunity is indeed given by his Majesty.
" If you don’t have such a plan, do you think you want to subdue a group of panicked Southwest Army, and you still need to stand for me? Don’t think I don’t know what you said in the Southwest Army, what is the 8-day deadline? , Either surrender, or face the cruel devouring of the 200,000 morale northwest army under our lord Vicia Falcons. "The fat man glanced at the already stunned Salon, and finally smiled at the corner of his mouth. He smiled and stood up. He patted the shoulders of the confidant who knows his mind best
" You can really say "The fat man smiled at the corner of his mouth, and the voice stopped before continuing." If the Southwest Army knew that in fact, as long as the tens of thousands of you were facing you, it would have been another way of thinking. I dare not do anything. Said that you completed the task within time and performed well on the northwest coast. Although you were born as a taker and have a congenital deficiency, you have really learned a lot about government affairs during this time of getting along with you. In the military of the empire, the commander of the legion is indeed an honor, but he must face countless challengers. Only by becoming a governor can you truly have the background of an important imperial minister!"
"Your subordinates thank your majesty for your hòu love! Under your majesty's banner, your subordinates will follow you even if you die..." Salong knelt down on one knee in front of the fat man, his turbid eyes flashed. With the water vapor, I couldn't even speak for a while. After years of birth and death, so many battles between life and death, I finally won the respect that a martial artist should have. Seeing who dares to say that he is one in the future, A reckless man wielding a weapon.
"Okay, if you have any feelings, I will talk about it later, now we have one of the most important things to do!" The fat man waved his hand at the shaking Salong, raised his head, and looked out of the account. In the drizzle, he slowly said, "The gate to the southwest has been opened, but before entering, we need to establish the status of the northwest!'
" Establish the status of the Northwest? "Saron stood up~IndoMTL.com~ her face was astonished, didn't she already occupy half of the Northwest's territory? And other forces have also expressed their surrender to the northwest coast. What does your Majesty mean by establishing the northwest?
"I decided to form the northwestern province of the empire! Together with the southwestern province of the empire, I will become the empire's territory on the continent of Obaro!"
The fat man turned his head and said firmly, "In order to avoid direct war with the Gauls, we also had a title of governing in the northwest, but this time we entered the southwest, our name is Empire, Falcon Empire, In other words, we must truly establish our own empire status on the Obaro continent, not a region to govern!
We are going to tell all the Europa that there is a powerful empire that is not lost to any empire on the horizon of the northwest of the land! Its name is Falcon Empire! Similarly, the northwest is not the northwest of the original Gaul, but the northwestern province of the Falcon Empire! All Northwestern forces must choose this! Become a friend or an enemy of the empire! "
" Your subordinates understand, please give orders to your Majesty! If anyone in the Northwest has any opinion on confrontation, your subordinates will lead the army to eradicate them!" Saraon heard the blood boil and responded loudly
"I hope everything goes well! Although I have made a lot of preparations in advance, it is best to take over peacefully, but I still have to think about it." The fat man nodded and shouted to the guard outside the door, "Go and inform the northwest. Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, we will hold a military meeting!"
