Power and Empire Chapter 2006: Scrap iron worth tens of thousands of dollars
"Boom!" Thor's familiar roar shook the sky. Several Thor bullets with black smoke tails exploded crappyly on the fortress wall, and the red ball of light exploded in front of more than 100,000 people. Someone could be seen being washed down from the city wall by the waves of air and fire, and the Allied Forces were laid out. Advance in the skirmish line formation. At the end of the field of vision as far as possible, it seemed as if the Allied Army's flag was full of riotous colors. The front of the fortress is like a spring garden full of flowers. The spears with colorful ribbons are the waves above the waves. The vast battlefield is densely covered with soldiers and horses ready to attack. The soldiers gallop between the battlefields. queue.
Go ahead! "The infantry captains of the coalition army drew out their swords and shouted to the soldiers like chicken blood. Thor's roar was like a clarion call for the whole army to attack, and the more than 100,000 coalition forces below began to move towards the city wall. Enter, the long rows of guns held high up like wolves can’t open their eyes. Hundreds of black lines roll like ocean waves, and some of these waves are scattered in a dense explosion. Allied soldiers lie on the ground and wait for the explosion. Stopped, stood up again, and attacked several times. The infantry captains of the coalition army have mastered the rhythm of the Falcon Army Thor’s shooting.
The Thor of the Falcon Army is accustomed to volleys. Every time the ground shakes the mountains, it is like a doomsday, and it is intimidating, but its shortcomings are also very obvious. That is, after each salvo, there must be five to six minutes. The time will be the neutral period. The coalition forces advancing against Thor will immediately lie on the ground when they encounter a bombardment. After the explosion has passed, they will immediately jump up and rush forward. The crossbow arrows on the opposite city wall hit like rain, impacting. Allied soldiers fell and rolled, the land infested by human blood was blood red, and the coalition forces were still densely packed. Holding shields of this size in their hands, they climbed the fortress walls like ants.
Faced with so many coalition forces. The more than 30,000 imperial crossbowmen on the wall have been mad, panting, everyone gave up aiming, and there is no need to obey the captain’s orders, squatting behind the battlements and filling them at the fastest speed, then stand up and kill. After shooting towards the climbing crowd below the battlements, there was a painful grunt of arrows immediately below, and then the sound of heavy objects falling. The heavy-armored imperial heavy infantry were standing in front of the crenellations, sharp and sharp. The spear was held diagonally. The imperial ballista dedicated to defending the city was pushed up by the soldiers from the ramp of the city wall. A large bundle of heavy metal forged arrow clusters was placed on the ground. Several soldiers used levers to pull apart the bowstrings of the ballista with a front end. A crossbow arrow with a sharp half-moon arc is placed in the shooting slot
is the main formation behind the coalition forces,
"Quickly, reload, continue shooting!" a coalition officer shouted, and the 30-odd coalition army's guns filled with smoke in front of them, and bursts of white smoke rose up. Being blown upside down by the wind, the shooting sequence is loose and messy, and the shooting accuracy is very poor. Most of them hit the end face of the city wall.
More than a dozen coalition soldiers were hurriedly pushing a heavily displaced Thor into a fixed position. There was a huge roar, and some guarding soldiers all around were lying on the ground in fright. With his hands tightly over his ears, these Thors were bought from the black market in general at a high price by the coalition forces, and forty of them were assigned to the front-line base camp. Three of them were damaged during transportation and could not be fired. The rest are here. They are all old-fashioned heavy base-type firing Thor. They are heavy in size and inconvenient to transport. Three or four shots will be severely shifted because of the gun base. , And had to spend a lot of effort to restore the position,
But for ordinary soldiers of the coalition army, it is enough to hear that Thor was fired from his own side. Watching the fire from behind, the thunder **** exploded on the huge fortress in front of him. Undoubtedly, the coalition forces' hearts are uplifted!
The Marquis of Fetter looked at the attack queue sent by the coalition forces ahead with a cold expression. At a distance of 100 meters from the city wall, the Thor of the Falcon Army also began to roar, and saw a burst of spray on the huge fortress wall. The white smoke rises like countless little flowers blooming on the opposite fortress wall in an instant. The rolling line of the coalition forces that impacted suddenly raised countless light groups, and the marching queue was blown up in all directions. There were hundreds of people in front, only a dozen. The waves rolled out of the locks of artillery fire, and the gray waves of people drifted and dispersed, hitting the fortress wall heavily,
The Marquis of Fitt’s eyes lit up, he took his gaze back from a distance, turned around to tidy up his collar, and said to the coalition generals behind him, "Everyone has seen it. There is nothing terrifying about the Falcon Empire. Breakthrough! Even if it is still unable to occupy the city wall, it is enough to let the Falcon Empire know that their Thor can't stop us. Faced with such a huge difference in military strength, the Falcon Army will either defend until the entire army is wiped out, or take the initiative to abandon the fortress. !" Sir, is this really feasible? Three days have passed since the order from the base camp to force the main frontline force to return emergency aid. It is said that the intruding Falcon Army hit Pozera behind, less than fifty miles away from Azer, the largest logistics center of our army! The eleventh step corps in charge of blocking is fighting, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold back the main force to retreat! "
"If Azer's so many supplies fall into the hands of the Falcon Empire Army, it will be very detrimental to us! "A coalition general asked with a worried look." Azer does not need to worry, the base camp has been given to the eleventh. The infantry regiment gave the order to die. If it can’t keep it, it will set fire to Azer, absolutely not leaving any for the Falcons! Lost supplies can be replenished, and according to our current stock of supplies, it’s enough to go back!"
The Marquis of Fett has a firm tone, with scorching eyes watching the tragic fight ahead, and under the outer wall of the fortress, the coalition queues are all tumbling like a colony of ants. The voice paused and continued.
"On the contrary, our place is very dangerous. If we can't block the Falcons in Edgar's line, we will be flanked back and forth by the other side on the way back to the aid, and more than a hundred thousand troops will die without a burial place!" "It's only now that I suddenly want to understand this, why the Falcon Army gave up the first five hundred miles, but just stayed here, it should be waiting for us to turn around and give us a vicious blow!"
The words of the Marquis of Fit changed the faces of the generals of the coalition army.
"No way, if this is the case, the enemy commander is too insidious!"
"A commander who can fight without a declaration, you still expect to observe the sense of glory of the soldiers!" The Marquis of Fetter's setting is correct, and the generals suddenly sweated on their foreheads, so dangerous! If it weren’t for turning to Edgar’s direction, I’m afraid I would really not be able to find such a fierce conspiracy of the Falcons, the dance of the fox, the Marquis of Fett was able to evacuate before the Falcon Empire was encircled last time, it was not just luck. it is good! "Everyone. With the courage of the soldiers, we can only bet that the opposing commander is a wise man! So we can get this barrier in advance! "The Marquis of Fetter's cold eyes swept across the coalition generals, and the war was hit." Now, there is no possibility of retreat, don't report illusions, only by taking Edgar, we can go back safely!"
"Take Edgar!" The generals clenched their hands into fists. This time they didn't have any reservations. The elite coalition reserve teams were all lined up, and no effort was spared! "All stand up. Ready to fight!" The chanting slogans sent the cavalry forward galloping past the tens of thousands of coalition rear groups. Pieces of dense spears were erected like a forest, and the flags of various colors fluttered, "Shoot Edgar. , Everyone, go home!" Various slogans were one after another among the reserve teams of the coalition on the battlefield. When they heard this, the eyes of the coalition soldiers were red.
The Thor's cannon chambers on the head of the city are all red, and it has been paused. In the fierce battle for the city wall, the infantry of the two armies' spears and spears and other long weapons were drenched in the crevices of the city walls, and blood bloomed like flowers. The imperial heavy infantry wearing heavy black armor used heavy shields to withstand the climbing soldiers of the coalition force. The dense spear arrays were poking at the opponent's line desperately. The spears were arranged so densely that they could hardly pass through the air. Various noises were made on the armor and shield. Some are crisp and some are soothing. For a time, the flesh and blood at the crenellation of the city wall strangled the line.
There were continuous screams from both sides. From time to time, coalition soldiers were pierced by the long stabbing gun and fell from the high head of the city covered with blood. Each impact produced a lot of sacrifices and blood, but the more tragic battle was when the spears of the soldiers on the front line were broken, and the melee began. The melee infantry wielded swords and flail, shields hit the shields, and the crowds swayed each other. The superior force of the coalition adopted the tactics of climbing walls, regardless of location and focus. The front line was spread out to give full play to the strength of the force. To the maximum,
The Falcon Empire’s advantage lies in its superior combat power. The Jaglins’ Guards Corps firmly suppressed the impact of the coalition forces in the east, while the Ripollins’ Central Army’s direct line made it difficult for the coalition forces to advance in the west. , The soldiers have already killed their eyes, the smell of blood permeated the city walls, and the front and the back of the feet were full of blood and minced meat. The heavy metal arrows of the heavy ballista were swept away, and the broken limbs mixed with blood splashed on the fortress masonry. Although the number of coalition forces Many, but because it was a full-line attack, most of the coalition forces pushing up the city wall were not heavy infantry. They rushed up with a shout. The situation was not clearly seen. Many of the soldiers were pushed down by countless spears. Soldiers had damaged helmets. Falling and being chopped to pieces in battle. "Quick, rush up! rush up!" a coalition officer roared and waved his flag. "Take Edgar down, everyone, go home!" Before the words fell, an imperial crossbowman aimed at him and shot it. He caught his left eye, the officer screamed and was dragged down by his subordinates. The fighting continued until dark, and the exhausted two sides began a truce. The bodies of the coalition forces piled up nearly one meter under the fortress wall.
Quietly in the dark. The land within 200 meters of the fortress was turned over several times by Thor's cannonballs, and there were many incomplete corpses everywhere on it. The fighting was so tragic that the coalition forces had no time to recover all the corpses, and even the broken flags had no chance to recover them. .
"How many people do you still have?" Burrant Bonnie came to the east of the line of defense with a tired look, and found Reposti who was resting on the battlement. However, the hundreds of female knights under her command lost 37 people in the battle, and the main force of the Congolese Northern Army led by the army also lost more than 7,000 in the battle. It is absolutely tragic, not to mention the worst situation in the east, where the most enemies gathered during the day. , Densely packed, the city wall was also breached by the coalition forces three times, the ground was completely red with human blood, if it weren’t for Repollins to boldly let the imperial cavalry rush up from the city road to push the enemy down, the coalition forces might have used this as a breakthrough, breakthrough The entire line of defense!
"Three thousand died in the battle, two thousand seven hundred injured, less than five thousand are currently able to fight!" Reposti stood up, saluted Burrant Bonnie, and said with a bitter smile that the main attacker was the Allied Stainless Steel Corps. ! The combat power is not under ours. Four of the sixteen squadron captains died in our hands. It seems that we remembered us last time! "
"Can I hold on tomorrow? Burrant Bonnie asked with a heavy face" I don’t know. "Reposti shook his head and said" It should be possible to prepare in advance. If Edgar is lost, Thor must be blown up first. Drop! "
Burrant Bonnie did not say anything, 200 Thor, she has been stationed on the northern border for several years. I haven't seen so many imperial Thunder Gods, so just blow it up like this? "My lord, say something that shouldn't be said. I think my lord's understanding of your majesty's order is wrong!" Reposti hesitated and said.
"A deviation?" Burrant Bonnie was taken aback,
"Your Majesty’s letter of order says that if necessary, you can withdraw five hundred miles, but there is no mention of sticking to Edgar!" Reposti stood up with his hands on the battlements, looking down as if A galaxy of coalition camps. "The coalition forces have been several times our army, and after four hundred miles of overall advancement, the morale of the army and the cooperation have become mature. Even if we have Thor, we can't resist it. I don't believe that your majesty will not think of it, but until now, We have not received any news about imperial reinforcements either! "Abandoning Edgar. It is equivalent to giving up the barrier in the north of Congo, and it is also close to a distance of five hundred miles!" Burrant Bonnie frowned. Ning Sheng said, "It was my decision to withdraw from the front line to Edgar in one breath, and it was also reported to the Ministry of Military Affairs. With permission, according to common sense, the logistics should be already tense when the coalition forces are marching here. The armies of various countries should also be. There was a gap, but the fact is that the coalition forces showed extraordinary bravery in taking down the Edgar barrier. From the generals to the soldiers, they are full of the decisive heart not to lay down Edgar and never withdraw. Is it really me? I misunderstood the order? But if it was a misunderstanding, why would the teacher order Jaglins to **** two hundred Thors to come to support us? ""On this matter, I only have to ask Jaglins! I always feel that your Majesty does not I would think that only two hundred bullets and insufficiently charged Thor can withstand the strong attack of the main force of more than one hundred thousand coalition forces! "Reposti's eyes flickered, and he turned and shouted to the guard behind him." Go to Master Yaglins Come!"
After a while, Jaglins walked from one end of the city wall, with blood in his armor and walking vigorously. It seems that the blood is not his. "Two adults, are you?" Jaglins stopped. In the footsteps, I saw Burrant Bonnie and Repostedziqi looking at herself, a little at a loss. "The teacher ordered you to **** the two hundred Thors to Edgar. Is there any other order?" Burant Bonnie Some eagerly asked, Jaglins was asked inexplicably, and he was silent for a while, and said, "Your Majesty only asked me to transport the 200 Thors to Edgar and stay in Edgar to assist you in defense. I later asked your Majesty for instructions. After getting permission, there are no more orders!"
"Then prepare, if you can't keep it, blow up Thor!" Burrant Bonnie took a deep breath, and said in a trembling voice, "We didn't receive the order to guard, the life and death of tens of thousands of troops Hanging by a thread, if it is really caused by my misunderstanding, I really have to apologize with death!" "My lord!" "Needless to say, get ready, so I will be responsible for all the consequences. "Blante Bonnie waved to the two of them, her eyes dimmed, Fatty, is this the final destination you arranged for me? "Your Excellency, the Military Affairs Department ordered!" A messenger came running out of breath, and handed a copy of the order in front of Berrant Bonnie, interrupting the conversation between the three of them. "Military Affairs Department!" Berant Bonnie. After blinking his eyes, both Reposti and Jaglins looked at her. Burrant Bonnie took the order in confusion, opened it and looked at her, her face turned gray, "This is..." Burrant Bonnie stopped at the last line of the order, her silver teeth clenched, and the five white fingers holding the order fiercely pinched the order into a ball. "My lord, what's the matter?" Reposti looked at Burlan. With such an abnormal scene, Tebony suddenly shrank her head. Yaglins didn't know what was going on, and asked curiously, "It's an order for us to retreat! The order is for Anduyager who is less than thirty miles behind us." Sent!" Burrant Bonnie flushed with anger, gritted her teeth and said, "The 90,000 main force in the southwestern area of the Empire and the Imperial Guard Corps have arrived in Anduyag"
"Anduyager is only 30 miles away from here, why don't they..." Repollins muttered to herself~IndoMTL.com~ her face changed, and she suddenly closed her voice, knowing why Burrant Bonnie was like this Angry, the only person who can mobilize the main force in the southwest area and the Imperial Guard Corps is His Majesty Falcon. Sitting on the main force of the Empire, he is sitting thirty miles away watching the fortress fight to death. No wonder Berlante Bonnie is so angry, who I don’t know that the relationship between His Majesty Falcon and the legion commander is quite complicated. "In that case, let’s evacuate tonight! Let’s go and make arrangements. Let the soldiers blow up Thor first...!" Burrant that Reposti could feel. There was a sudden hatred on Bonnie, and she quickly found an excuse to pull her old partner Jaglins away
"No need to arrange, the order requires that all Thor ammunition and drugs be taken away. As for Thor, stay here!" said Berlante Bonnie.
"Stay... stay here? That's not all for the coalition!" Reposti's voice trembled, wondering if he heard it wrong
"The Thor without ammunition and medicine is just a pile of scrap iron!" Burrant Bonnie seemed to have figured out something, and snorted in dissatisfaction, "200 Thors! Such a large pile is worth hundreds of dollars. Ten thousand gold coins of scrap iron is enough to take up all the horses of the coalition army. There are hundreds of miles of wilderness, and two legs can't go on four legs. If the coalition army chooses to guard Edgar for this pile of scrap iron, it is really killing it! "
"My lord means that these 200 Thors were originally your Majesty deliberately..." Reposti heard her eyes enlarge, and her body shuddered unnaturally
