Power and Empire Chapter 1969: Empire Dawn (10)
The black plume of smoke pierced into the sky at the boundary of the eastern mountains of Gaul, and looked shocking on the blue cliffs. A small fortress controlled by a falcon army was smoky, and red flames licked the fortress like a greedy cat. On the felt top of the sentry tower, the bracket made a crackling crackling sound in the flames, and the sparks were blown apart by the wind,
A team of "Tata" swayed from the fortress with the red cavalry above the fortress and entered the broken gate of the fortress. Every horseshoe stepped splashed with bright red human blood on the ground, which was thick and embarrassing, splashing. On the ground the torn Falcon Emperor ** flag coating
"Is there anything missing!" Algernon Katja stopped his horse in front of the pile of corpses, behind him were dozens of cavalry guards, and his eyes scanned the corpses of hundreds of Falcon soldiers.
" My lord, we were locked up for four weeks before the attack. The cavalry on the other side was shot and killed by us halfway. The entire fortress defender was annihilated, not one less!" A Gang Fei The captain of the cavalry squadron knelt in front of him on one knee, holding in both hands a roster of soldiers stationed in the fortress
"Okay, beautiful work!" Algernon Katya showed a refreshing smile on his handsome face, his eyes swept across the fire spreading in the fortress, and a dash of red flashes in his eyes, a thorn in his nose. The smell of nosebleeds added a bit of joy to the hideousness on his face.
"If it goes well, tomorrow, everything will change!"
He raised his head and looked at the distant sky, his fingers clenched his whip and made a creaking sound." Under the burning fortress, the unobservable queue was moving forward, just in the Saron Legion. During the **** battle with the ruling coalition forces in the east, the remnants of the Gaul side also moved quickly. The Gaul army of about 50,000 people, under the personal command of Algernon Katja, is traversing the flanking defense line of the Falcon Army at a rate of destruction. ,
The guard towers along the way were broken down, and the burning small fortress was the flanking defensive outpost, because Saron temporarily mobilized two-thirds of the flanking forces for the battle. ,,. The flanks are seriously inadequate. On the front line of the jī war, the land in front becomes bright red, gradually being filled with corpses and flesh and blood,
The forces of the four major coalition forces in the east are clearly superior. The Dalaknitta’s mountainous area shoots within a hundred meters, which is extremely lethal to the imperial crossbowmen, and the Falcons intensively throw their guns toward the ridge. The direction of the array fell like a torrential rain, the crossbowmen's formation was broken up, and the array also fluctuated. The tip of the spear at the front of the spear fell through an arc, and even heavy infantry would also have a shield pierced, behind the spear team. This is the mountain assault force of the Dalakni family. Compared with the slightly scattered formation of the gunmen and hands in the front, the assault force appears orderly.
The neatly lined up light infantry rushed in with an overwhelming momentum, forming a line of skirmishers. Rows after rows seem to be in order,
These lightly armed infantry are holding square scaly gray-white shields in their hands, and the armor on their bodies looks a little bó. Wearing a cross helmet on his head, a blue strip of cloth fell from the top of the helmet, and while telling to run forward, it looked like a blue sea was rolling. The sharp front end of the spear has begun to level,
After the third hour of the battle, Saron had to withdraw the crossbowmen who had lost more than half of the battle from the front line.
is no longer blocked by the crossbowman. The distance between the two armies is rapidly shortening,
"Papa" is like two walls slamming into each other quickly, and the heavy impact is like a sudden burst of blood. Side by side, the shields were on top of the shields, and the back row was next to the front row. Soldiers on both sides were rushing into each other’s queue frantically. The long spears in their hands smashed into each other’s shield and broke. Imagine the speed, quickly expand to thousands of meters,
The archers on both sides don’t need to aim anymore, just shoot towards the crowd on the opposite side, the arrows pouring like that continuous rainstorm, the blood stains the battle line red, and countless sharp weapons are slicing in the opposite direction. The two sides of the fierce battle gritted their teeth and looked at each other. Underfoot was red blood, and the battle line was completely **** red. Both sides stepped on the bodies of the wounded and deceased and continued to fight. The screams continued, and the feet were screaming. It's greasy, it's the human body that's stepping on, and the thick **** smell chokes the nose
The head of Zhu Chenwood’s family, one of the ruling Eastern Powers, looked at the fierce battlefront in front, and kept walking back and forth anxiously. The messenger rushed to and fro with him one by one, reporting that “The family’s third infantry regiment has collapsed. The Fifth Infantry Regiment requested reinforcements! Lord Shaxing said that he could not stand it anymore! Four of the ten squadron captains had been killed, three were seriously injured, and five squadrons had too many casualties to fight anymore!"
"What's going on!"
Zhu Chenwood’s head of the house looked far away, his lips trembled slightly, and it has been three hours since the battle! The Falcon Emperor’s military front, which is obviously a disadvantaged force, is like a bottomless black hole, devouring one by one of his own elites. Those are soldiers that the family has spent countless efforts to cultivate, and they are consumed in fierce battles. "China" has paid a huge price and sacrifice, and even a gap has not been opened! The opponent has fought with inferior forces for such a long time, aren’t the opponent’s soldiers tired? How can they maintain such a high morale and vigor. Energy?
"Now it seems that I can only look forward to the performance with Algernon Katja!" The head of Zhu Chenwood said to himself, and some pictures flashed in his heart. The remaining Gaul forces and the four major eastern forces Ruling is full of contradictions, and there is absolutely no possibility of unity between the two, but the overall victory of the Falcon Empire in Central Europe broke the ice between the two.
Just ten days ago, Algernon Julia went to Varo City, the four major ruling bases in the east, and asked to meet with the four ruling powers. When they met, Algernon Julia complained that the two sides continued to fight. The result is only to perish. The reason is that "the confinement of the Falcon Empire has been completely finished. Once the main force of the Falcon Empire is put on the Gaul battlefield again, the battle that is still able to maintain a balance will be completely broken. The Vecya Falcon army When God returns to Gaul, it is the moment when all people are destroyed" Algernon Julia's words finally touched the four ruling powers,
Seeing the Big Four in power and still hesitating, Algernon Julia stood up,
She took out a detailed combat plan and spread it out in front of the four ruling powers. In the plan, the four ruling powers and the Gaul side sent troops at the same time, and the four ruling forces were responsible for containing the main force of the Falcons, the Gaul army. With a force of 50,000 troops, he reeled in, and rushed in from behind the 60,000 Falcon Army led by the Falcon Empire's fierce commander Salon.
"The two armies are encircled. The Falcon Empire's army is sure to be defeated!" After reading the plan with the eyes of the four ruling powers, they all realized that the plan was very successful. There was silence for a while, Darak The leader of the Nita family, Darak Nitawufu, first began to loosen his tone. "The plan is not wrong, but the plan will never catch up with the changes. Moreover, the Falcon Army’s combat power is very strong. If we do not defeat the Falcon Empire as scheduled, the opponent Instead, the reinforcements arrived, and we are easily passive..."
"There will be no counterattack! As long as you advance fast enough!"
Algernon Julia cupped the hair on her forehead lightly, and her beautiful lips turned up slightly. She saw that the four ruling powers were moved, and said categorically, "After the main force of the Falcon Empire withdrew after the capture of Gaul Kyoto, the remaining forces were divided into two parts, one part was the 50,000 troops stationed at the front line of Gaul Kyoto. , The commander in charge is the governor of the Southern Army of the Falcon Empire Stutun Enko, and the other force is the Saron Legion, which is responsible for advancing to the east. The distance between the two legions is only more than a hundred miles, and it can be done at any time. Reinforcement. But since the Saron Army attacked the eastern mountainous area, the gap between the two armies has been increasing."
"Now, the connection between the two legions has been extended to more than three hundred miles, even the fastest fast horse needs a day and night to run to the side!" Algernon Julia paused. . The hand pointed to the plan and continued, "That is to say, the Saron Army is already the Falcon Empire, currently the largest troop group in eastern Gaul. The nearest reinforcements are still hundreds of miles away. In the Imperial Kyoto area, this is a serious defect in the opponent's military deployment. As long as you grasp it well, it can become the hope of turning the tide of the war!"
"Hope? What do you mean?" Darakni Tawufu raised his head,
"The other party dares to do this because the other party thinks that we will not join hands!"
Algernon Julia's face is slightly dark, and her voice is clear and nice, "So in this battle, the opponent absolutely never expected that we would send troops at the same time, and have enough tacit understanding, as long as it can defeat Salon's army, the speed is fast enough. , You can completely push the front from the eastern mountain area to the Gaul Kyoto line again before the other party has time to react, and you can also take the opportunity to stabilize the situation. Those areas themselves are Gaul regions and don't need to spend energy to digest! You will get regional personnel from three to four provinces and supplies in terms of materials. It is a bit exaggerated to say that it is a complete turnaround, but it is inevitable that your strength will be greatly enhanced."
"It seems to be feasible!" The Patriarch of the Li Kesier family touched his horoscope and muttered to himself. The flashing eyes watching the plan were obviously heart-warming.
"It seems so, even if what you said is reasonable, we can defeat the advancing Saron Army and push the front to the Gaul Kyoto, but..." "Snake" means that he is very cunning and vicious, his eyes narrowed into a thin line, and a gleam of light flashed, and his tone was disdainful.
"What does the reclaimed land have to do with us? You said that it was the land of the Gaul Empire. You can easily compile these areas without much effort and take back a quarter of the empire's territory, but we will Rejected there, is such a plan also called cooperation?"
"Master Michelangelo can rest assured that this time, we are only responsible for participating in the battle to defeat the Saron Legion, and all the subsequent advancement will be handed over to you!" Agilnon Julia took a look at this famous famous "Viper." He already had a plan in his heart, and a small smile came out from the corner of his mouth, "The main achievement of this battle is the four powers, so the land will naturally belong to the four powers! I can guarantee this."
"What, all the land belongs to us?" The bodies of the four governing bodies trembled slightly, and their eyes suddenly showed greed
"Are you sure this is the case?" Darakni Tawuv stared at the map of the Gaul Empire, as if a fire was burning, and said condensedly, "From a plan, the land involved this time may reach Four to five provinces, that is three times the land of the entire eastern mountain area, fertile and rich. How can you guarantee that these land will belong to us?"
" Yes, what guarantee do you have! "The eyes of the Patriarch of the Michelando family opened, flashing with a cold luster. If this woman is completely deceiving, he will not hesitate to order This woman acts as a hostage to threaten the remnants of Gaul,
"If you don't believe me, I will stay here as a hostage to this promise, this one will be fine!"
seems to feel the inner thoughts of the four governing powers. Algernon Julia said in a calm tone, the surrounding air suddenly became quiet, and the doubtful look in the eyes of the four major consuls disappeared completely, there is no problem, this cooperation can basically be trusted,
The woman in front of me may have a bad reputation, cunning, cruel, confidant, miserable, and female sex. The person responsible for the defeat of the entire empire in Kyoto was the last person beside the emperor before his fall, but this woman was also very famous for her protection. As usual, the emperor’s fall, and Algernon Julia, who was responsible for the fall of the empire, should say She was martyred to the country, but this woman ran away alone. If she was not quite sincere, she would never take the initiative to enter the enemy's territory. And asked to stay here as a hostage.
"May I ask, why are you risking such a big risk for this kind of no good thing..." The head of the Zhu Chenwood family asked hesitantly
"As long as the Falcon Empire cannot be satisfied, as long as the emperor’s entrustment can be completed. It is even possible to sacrifice oneself! This is my answer." Algernon Julia's charming corner of his mouth slightly Smile, there is a deep hatred in the eyes
"How credible is that woman's words!" Withdrawing his thoughts, Zhu Chenwood's head of the house clenched five fingers together. It was pale because of the force, and his eyes looked at the sky like a burning cloud in the distance, as if the same beautiful scenery split in front of him. Red as blood, overwhelming the sky, at a glance, there is a shocking death,
"Woo! The horn of withdrawal sounded from the sky, and the four major coalition forces in the east could not bear the heavy price and began to order the attack line to retreat. After fighting for a day, neither side could exert any strength to continue fighting. Go down,
Saron sat exhaustedly on a stone, blood stained on his armor, and an arrow was hit in his arm. Seeing the back of the ruling coalition forces retreating, he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. With a sound of danger, the ruling coalition forces swooped in regardless of the tide, and the Falcons, which had always been good at long-range combat, were also dragged into the deadly battle. The situation reached a difficult choice, whether its own troops were defeated or ruling. The coalition forces have penetrated the Falcon army with sufficient toughness. This is a fight of the willpower of both sides. It is like the legendary double-headed snake to see who can swallow the other side first. The squadron commander and the squadron commander killed as many as 300 people in the battle of the squadron. The 40,000 emperor army tended to disintegrate under the impact of the ruling coalition forces. Was completely maimed, even Saraon didn’t know whether the retreat order passed on could take effect, because the soldiers who are still insisting now are supported by a sense of honor of a soldier, just like a physically exhausted one. People wield weapons in a completely numb state
ordered the entire army to count the number of people. Saron’s heart sank. The 40,000 Falcons lost 13,000 people in the battle, and almost everyone was injured. The ruling coalition on the opposite side killed more than 20,000 in this battle. It seemed that the Falcons had won the victory, but Saron knew that he couldn’t fight anymore. The opponent lost 20,000 people in the battle, but still had as many as 60,000 troops. On his own side, apart from the battle loss of 13,000. People and various defensive facilities have also been destroyed. The other party once again launches a fierce attack like today, and this side will use things that can’t be blocked.
Saron is in hesitation, holding on is death, not holding on, once the ruling coalition forces occupy the Po Alonso Mountains, the initiative of the entire battlefield will change.
" My lord, report urgently! "A messenger cavalry came in gallop, jumped off his horse not far from him, and handed him a red report
"This is? Battle report!" A trace of confusion flashed in Salong's eyes, what is going on? Have other areas been attacked?
"Nothing really happened, right!"
I don’t know why~IndoMTL.com~ An unknown premonition rose in his heart, and he eagerly opened the report in front of him, and Saron’s face turned pale. The report said that there was a Gaul with tens of thousands of people. The army has broken through the chain guard towers on the flanks, and is heading towards the Po Alonso Mountains in the battle,
The report was from a small fortress less than fifty miles away from Poalonso. The method of reporting was pigeons rather than cavalry.
Saron squeezed the letter tightly into a ball, and his eyes were full of bloodshots like spider webs, bastard! I have arranged a total of eleven towers and fortresses on the flanks, but only in the last fortress did someone sound the alarm.
This proves that the opponent's attack on these fortresses and guard towers along the way must be to kill all of them, otherwise it would never be possible to reach behind oneself without knowing it,
" sent the entire army to evacuate immediately!" Saran commanded loudly. He knew that any hesitation now would put the rest of the troops in a desperate situation of being attacked by the enemy.
In the distance, the four major ruling coalition forces also discovered that the Falcons were gathering the front and began to withdraw from the defense area, but the coalition forces, which still had 40,000 in number, had no intention of pursuing them.
The ruling authorities believe that Po Alonso has already been taken, and the front will be unstoppable. Now it is necessary to discuss how to divide the vast land behind the mountain. As for the evacuated Falcon remnant army, it is still handed over to Alger. The Gaolu army of Nongkajia is going to deal with it!
