Power and Empire Chapter 1782: The turning point in the north (3)
Figueros' army was nearly collapsed by the Slavic soldiers at the gate. The cold light of the tomahawk flying brought **** red, and the narrow gate was filled with the bodies of Gaul soldiers.
"Push up, no back!"
Gaul’s generals yelled at the soldiers who broke down in the back. In their eyes, Nagould’s gate had already been opened. As long as they resisted the crazy pounce of the Slavs, they could rush into the gate. , But soon they discovered that the situation was not the case at all. The Slavic soldiers who broke out in the battle of life and death were fierce, even if they had been pricked by a Gaul spear, they would rush to fight half-dead. Chop down with the axe,
The wounded man rolled on the ground like a beast, rushing to bite the opponent’s throat. Although Figueros’ army was brave and brave, it was also taken by the Slavs this time when the death camp was destroyed. Slam, the one who beat was defeated steadily in the chaos,
The spear was chopped off, the horse fell, the flag shook, the axe cracked the helmet, slammed the head, and the bright red blood mixed with yellow and white brains splashed onto the faces of the compatriots behind him,
"My lord, the death camp has collapsed! The enemy's counterattack is too fierce, please order to stop the attack temporarily!" A general Gaul returned from the front, covered in blood, and jumped in front of Figueros' horse. Get off the horse and beg loudly
'Retreat?' Figueros looked solemnly at the gate where the war broke out, fingers tightly squeezed the reins of the warhorse, looking from his position, the gate position is like a mountain of corpses, the two armies staggered like Like a rolling dragon, this is a deadly battle, and the momentum of this side's army is suppressed and faltering. The attack line composed of three thousand northern axe soldiers is like a life-swallowing blood line slowly moving forward. The Gaul soldiers who encountered frontally were overturned by the impact, and the desperate fight could not stop the advance of the northern people.
The blood was flowing along the entrance of the city gate, and the body was pushed down by the crowded people into the red moat
The chaotic and unfavorable situation only made Figueros hesitate on horseback, and then said decisively, "Have you ever seen a general who will order the cessation of operations after the city gate is breached? The other side opened the door on its own initiative. , Don’t we dare to go in! Figueros raised his whip to interrupt him and said sharply ""
"But...but my lord..." The Gaul general hesitated and wanted to continue.
"Don’t talk about retreat. Since our army marched north, our army has never been defeated. I believe that the soldiers have the same will to win, and they have walked to the city of Nagould step by step, undefeated. , Is the soul of our army. Are you going to discard the things that everyone has been careful to protect because of a little setback?
Figueros’ voice stopped, and a smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Don’t forget, our army has lost the most elite death camp. Why didn’t the Slavs throw their most elite troops into our encirclement? Opportunity, how can I miss it,
"Immediately besieged this army, the gate of Nagould is ours! The countless treasures inside are also ours! Now instead of withdrawing, we must send orders to the army, regardless of loss, must be eaten This Slavic army!"
"Yes, my subordinates do not understand!"
The Gaul general heard that his face moved, he took a deep breath, turned on his horse, and prepared to return to the battlefield. At this moment, a scout cavalry came to report, "My lord, Noah’s Fifth Army Arrived to the north!"
"Nuya's Fifth Army! That guy is as fast as me!"
Hearing the report of the scout, Figueros was surprised for a moment. Following the direction the scout said to the north, in the rain and fog, a long black line was faintly seen rising from behind the mound on the north side. A banner waving in the wind is a band of red clouds flying over the forest.
Nuya is the commander of the Fifth Army of the New Northern Army in Gaul. He was born in the Kyoto Imperial Guard. Although he and Figueros are both effective fighters under Alder’s command, Nuya is proud and complacent, plus From the background of the Gallic family, he looks down on Figueros, who was born as a small attendant.
On many public occasions, Nuya has made things difficult for Figueros many times, laughing at his humble background, not a nobleman, unrecognizable, and he is from a region where the empire is an enemy. In fact, no one can tell that Nuya is jealous. The dazzling halo of Figueros, the No. 1 player in the North
On the mound in the north, the rain hits the silver bright cross-shaped helmet. A young Gaul general of about 30 years old is looking at the battlefield below with cold eyes, beside him. , A sturdy man with a pair of silver wings on his shoulders grinned and said disdainfully, "My lord, it looks like it is the battle flag of Figueros Army! I don’t know if this humble guy took The method actually broke through the entanglement of the Slavs and reached Naguld before us! And it seems that the city gate is the center of the war."
"My lord, do we need to attack?" The strong man looked at the battlefield and then at General Gaul
"Attack? Do you want to easily give the glory of taking the Slavs’ base camp Nagould to that untouchable?" The young General Gaul grumbled dissatisfiedly, and looked back. He was from the north. Noah, the commander of the New Fifth Army,
raised his hand and squinted to the troops behind him, he sneered and said, "A person born like a mouse will always have the ability to dig a hole! Even if it is the first troop to reach the target, there is nothing great! But this is also a good opportunity, order our cavalry troops to prepare! "
"What do adults mean?" The brawny man's eyes flickered.
"Hehe, of course it's just watching the changes!" Nuya smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth
" From the perspective of the battle, that guy was very unlucky and was dragged into the city gate area for a fierce battle. We just used him to consume the defenders of Nagould. If he really defeated the Slavs, We took the opportunity to lead the cavalry group to rush down. In any case, the first to enter the glory of Nagould, the Slavs’ base camp, must belong to our Gaul Guards! In other cases, we just need to watch here. Isn’t he called the No. 1 General in the North? It just happens to be able to reveal the false face of the No. 1 General in the North in one fell swoop!
"Line up!" As the order was issued, in the position of the Fifth Army of the Gaul Northern Army, about thousands of Gaul cavalry were assembled,
"What do these guys from the Fifth Army want to do!"
In the direction that Figueros occupied, the Gaul general looked at the cavalry unit in the north, his fists clenched, his face suddenly became angry, and the opponent did not mean to help, but waited for the opportunity to take advantage of it. 'S thoughts are too obvious,
The relationship between Nuya and Figueros of the Fifth Army is very bad, and the relationship between the generals under the two armies is just as bad,
The generals of Figueros’ line are mostly from local army. They were deployed to Figueros during the large-scale counterattack in the north. They were also used as a miscellaneous army of the army at the beginning, just because Figueros performed too much. Outstanding, a series of victories forced the Gaul side to be promoted to the front-line combat force, while Nuya’s troops were mostly the Gaul Janissaries. It can be seen from its ability to have thousands of elite cavalry. Shangyuan defeated Figueros’s troops,
This is also the place that makes Nuya feel unbalanced. "Why are all good things taken by this guy!" At the beginning of the reversing battle, the 20,000 Gaul Guards were fighting desperately, and the result was that the north was after the war. In the raid, Figueros, who was born as a small attendant, showed the limelight. Because it was a miscellaneous army, the Slavic army did not pay attention to Figueros at first. The main opponent of the Slavic army was still a Gaul guard. The army is the main force,
Among them, the Fifth Army was one of the key targets. There were several **** battles. The Fifth Army struggled in the northward advance. The Slavs’ most elite soldiers in the North caused serious damage to the Fifth Army’s soldiers. For the hard-fighting Gaul Guards faction, the rise of Figueros’ faction is simply a mockery of himself. A team of weapons or morale is not as good as his own miscellaneous troops. They have hardly experienced a decent **** battle and recovered a blockbuster. The region has become a hero in the mouth of the people,
And those who really fight in blood, don’t get the respect they deserve, no one can stand this kind of thing!
"My lord, there is a problem with the Fifth Army!" The Gaul general reminded in a low voice from the side
"My eyes are not blind yet! I can see!"
Figueros raised his head, his eyes did not look at the most fierce battle gate, but Nuya's Fifth Army, his face was gloomy, and his pale lips had already bitten out the blood beads. "This is a hard time. The choice is to give up the undefeated glory he upholds, or to make wedding dresses for others,
after hesitating for a few minutes, he slammed his horse and ordered "Withdraw the army, the whole army retreat to the five-mile camp"
woo! Ooh! Ooh!
The horn representing the withdrawal of troops reverberated in the sky of Naguld, Figueros’s troops began to withdraw backwards,
The place where the jī battle was once revealed the color like a **** hell, and the corpses piled up like a mountain. In just over 2 hours of **** and tragic battle, Figueros’ army paid a heavy price of more than 6,000 casualties. The most elite death camp was eliminated, morale suffered a serious blow, and the first real sense of the Failure, this kind of pain is like a piece of meat being dug out from Figueros. The loss of Slavs is about 2,000 people. Seeing that the most ferocious Figueros army was also repelled by himself, a burst of joy suddenly emanated from the wall. Cheers
The cheers of the Slavs came through the rain curtain, and Nuya, who was in the north of the city, curled his lips with disdain, and whispered to the strong man next to him, "Ryan, I see it, this is what the first general of the North has. Really, I will reveal the true face of this coward in front of everyone one day!"
On the wall of Nagould, the Slavic general who commanded the battle also showed a trace of regret. He looked at the slowly evacuating Figueros army and hit the battlements heavily. "Unfortunately, it's almost that way! If Figueros’s army continues to gather heavy troops towards the city gate, it will be greeted by fierce fuel projectiles! Even if the butcher cannot be killed, it will be enough to burn these enemies whose hands were stained with the blood of the Slavs to death and burn most of them. !"
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the heavy rain stopped, and the main force of the Gaul troops appeared in all directions of Naguld one after another,
The two armies also lit up camps at night. Thousands of fires appeared on the plains and high mountains. The scene was very horrible. In the Gaul North Army’s headquarters, a military meeting was going on, taking advantage of the army. During the night to build the siege equipment, the Gaul generals in the northward battle reviewed the tactics of the battle. The bonfire in the brazier emitted countless sparks in the night wind, like a series of red star points.
The Gallic army gathered under Nagould this time has 7 armies and 230,000 people, while the Slavs gathered only 70,000 people in Nagould, with a ratio of three to one. With such a strong military force, the Gaul generals have considerable confidence in winning,
In the meeting before the general attack, they looked relaxed talking to each other, or whispered in private, whispering to each other. Some people are looking forward to the left, some are discussing post-war assignments with joy, and when they are happy, they laugh without concealment.
"I don't know why, there is always a disturbing feeling!"
Gaul Northern Army commander Alder was on the main seat, watching the various expressions of his men, frowning a little displeasedly. Although there are 230,000 troops, these troops are not like looking outside. It is so stable. Among the 230,000 troops, 70,000 first-line combat troops, 110,000 second-line troops, and the other 50,000 troops are all newly expanded troops in the north. In contrast, the Slavs are in Naguld. The army has changed from the previous tactics of all the people. This time the Slavs’ 70,000 troops are all tribal fighters with excellent combat capabilities. Unlike the previous ones, some of them are filled by the elderly and women, and the fighting is also nothing. No discipline at all,
It can be seen from the Slavic warriors who guard the city that they are dying, that the 70,000 elite Nagulds with a mortal heart will be a fierce and arduous battle! But the real hardship will be after the occupation of Nagould! "
Yard thought this subconsciously, and smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth. He just received an order from the Gaul Ministry of Military Affairs. In view of the frequent mobilization of forces in the Falcon Empire in the west, the Ministry of Military Affairs required the New North Army of Yard to take over. After Nagould, the Slavs’ base camp, he immediately swung his troops east to resist the heavy forces of the Falcon Empire that might launch large-scale attacks on the western front of the empire. Thinking of this, Alder felt a headache. The instructions are just kidding!
The battle between the New North Army and the Slavs and the battle against the Falcon Empire are totally different.
The New North Army with more than 200,000 troops, because many troops were temporarily recruited and volunteered from various places, their weapons and equipment simply couldn’t keep up. Many soldiers didn’t even have the most basic armor. They were originally set up in More than a dozen weapons arsenals in the northern part of the empire were wiped out by the Slavs a long time ago.
Based on Kyoto’s mobilization ability, even if it is fully activated, the clinking hammers can be heard throughout the night. In just two months, Kyoto’s supply totals more than 40,000 sets of infantry equipment. The recruits set up on the Western Front also had to take care of the rapidly expanding Northern Corps. The result was that neither side was taken into consideration. Taking such troops to fight against the Falcon Empire armed to the teeth. This is not death-seeking! Yard can’t imagine what the consequences will be if this order is really announced to the generals in front of them,
At the meeting, a general loudly mentioned the defeat under Nagould during the day, and laughed and said, "The situation at that time was really embarrassing. The city gate was clearly destroyed, and people were blocked outside the city! It was called undefeated! Figueros, it turned out to be so unbearable! What a pity, I heard that the entire northern wealth was gathered in this city by the Slavs!"
Hearing these words, the large accounts of discussions quieted down unexpectedly, and the wealth moved people's hearts. When everyone was discussing in a low voice just now, they mentioned the question of what to do with the wealth looted by the Slavs.
"It’s just to suspend the attack, how can it fail?"
Figueros sat in one corner and glanced at the opposite side angrily. Needless to say, it was his opponent Nuya. He frowned and said, "Our army is capable of fighting the enemy with simple equipment. Soldiers Bleeding, I don’t know what someone with the most elite troops was doing at the time? Since seeing the situation where the two armies are stuck together, I would never stand idly by!"
"You..." Nuya was immediately asked with nothing to say, his face was a little red~IndoMTL.com~I don't know if it was anxious or angry, Figueros didn't name him. But everyone knew who he was talking about. Everyone turned their eyes to Nuya. Although they knew that there was a big gap between the two, it was always disgusting to do so. The generals were all passionate warriors and looked down on them the most. It was this kind of despicable guy who stabbed his companion behind his back.
" They all watched what I was doing! I have ordered the cavalry to prepare for reinforcements! "Nuya exclaimed with an angry face"
" Nonsense, your cavalry was just watching with cold eyes. From start to finish, I didn't see a horseshoe stepping into the battlefield!" Figueros suddenly stood up from the opposite seat, shaking slightly, he was not one at all. People who are good at arguing think of the anger that fell short during the day, and the eyes of anger are bloodshot,
Nuya smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth. "A certain undefeated guy, unable to withstand even a little counterattack, directly ordered the retreat, killing thousands of brave soldiers of the empire in vain! My mistake I don’t know how to awaken, but I want to push on others, the invincible general, I baah! Shame, such an imperial general is the shame of the empire, someone must be responsible for the failure of the day!
" Yes, the war has not yet started, but such a shameful thing first appeared. If it is not strictly investigated, the military will be shaken heavily, how can the soldiers fight desperately..." One The commander of the Gaul army, who has a good relationship with Nouya, shook his head with a look of disdain
