Power and Empire Chapter 2316: Wind up (4)
The north wind is rolling in. Above the newly constructed Sirius Valley fortress, Murphy Obern is standing on the tallest stone turret on the wall, holding his armour and pressing his sword, silently watching the surrounding white mountains and rivers. On the ground, the roaring wind swept the battle robe behind him, and under the city wall, a group of black imperial cavalry was galloping in,
Amidst the silvery white desert, the imperial black armor looks extremely cold and cold.
Looking down from the condescending fort, large and small ring-shaped forts have formed a complete defense system. The most important valley entrance from the north to the east of the river is stuck tightly, and they are all dug out from the nearby mountains. The sturdy stone is tight and firm even with a heavy trebuchet. With this equipment, Sirius Valley, where the heads of the people once killed by Rui Tang Tingna are rolling, is truly known as a strong bridgehead that can support the advance of the army. It’s not like the previous battle of Sirius Mansion, where people can easily use cavalry to complete the assault breakthrough from Taniguchi,
On the left side of the fortress is a large area of grassland tents. The grazing cows and sheep are looking down for grass roots. On the right side of the fortress is a large-scale town with crowds and the sound of the blacksmith’s jingle. It was so sweet, and a large bazaar appeared in the lingering morning mist. The tent on the left was the grassland tribe that originally belonged to the Dongting people. After Zamhebi was beheaded by the empire, the Dongting forces withdrew from this wilderness. These grassland tribes consciously rely on the area with Sirius Valley as the core,
Although they are all tribes who escaped from the war in the steppe, the total population is 70 to 80,000. The prairie light cavalry capable of fighting and controlling the string is more than 10,000. The empire organized them and cooperated with Murphy Obern. The 20,000 Imperial Dragon Armor and the 10,000 light infantry in the Yue Valley constitute the backbone of the Imperial Wilderness Legion.
In the past six months or so, the Western Wilderness Corps of the Empire, which is paired with the troopers, has conquered and wiped out other forces in the wilderness. Most of the small forces are the remnants of the army that fled from the battlefield of Central and Bahia, such as Yue Valley relied on the terrain to be the emperor in one place, and it was already a remarkable force to draw out five thousand skirmishers. How could it be the opponent of the 40,000 armies of the empire, and the small forces that were scattered had a choice. After returning, some went to the border and became looting horse bandits.
Horses full of commodities crowded in the market. Many merchants from China, Bahia and the Empire stopped here to keep enough to replenish supplies. The horses and horses cross-border, no matter what the size of the people and horses. Dare to be a little bit arrogant. It died down, and even put away the swords, because in the past six months, Sirius Valley has used its own strength to establish its actual control in this area, even the powerful Dongting people are very consciously not. Appeared where the Cavalry appeared in Sirius Valley
In the eyes of the merchants, war and peace are based on the city in the wilderness.
The caravan heading towards the empire can relieve the inner tension. Passing through here is the territory of the Falcon Empire. The entire powerful empire may be a bit brutal in reputation, but it treats merchants less. Some are good, and caravans heading to the East Ting Prairie will buy a large number of weapons here. There is never a shortage of horse thieves on the grassland, even though the imperial cavalry in Sirius Valley has advanced two hundred miles. Those prairie horse thieves who appear and disappear from time to time on the border are also helpless,
People from Zhongbia, Dongting, and Empires can all be seen here. No matter how you fight and die outside, you will endure it tacitly when you arrive in Sirius Valley. There will never be a single person. Dare to fight with arms without authorization, because at this time Sirius Valley has been officially renamed the Sirius Mansion Province of the Falcon Empire. It is one of the three newly established provinces of the Empire, along with the eastern province of the Empire and the Empire Mountain Valley. , Is the headquarters of the Western Wilderness Army of the Empire, where the elite of the Empire Army are stationed here, and occasionally a group of Murphy Dragoons patrols around. All the passing teams evade the way quickly. If they can’t avoid it, they dismount and wait for the imperial army to pass.
"My lord, it came from the long wall!" A deputy hurried up from behind, holding a letter just delivered in his hand, his face was a little eager, and the direction of the long wall was finally correct. The movement is quiet, tens of thousands of troops are always doing things like bandits, what's the matter?
"Clean up the border?" Murphy O'Brien opened the letter and looked at it. There were not many unexpected expressions. For Murphy O'Born, does the empire have any ambitions for the East Court Grassland? It’s not important, but Murphy’s Dragon Armoured Cavalry, who has poured their energy into it, can’t delay and bury it anymore,
More than 20,000 loyal and loyal old men followed him to the wilderness with no regrets and no regrets. The cold wind and hunger were the most difficult time. In order to reduce the consumption of food, how hard The hard Murphy Dragon Cavalry reluctantly killed his horse. Looking back now, I don’t even know how he spent that time.
It’s finally getting better now. The horse resources are available, and the food is no longer worrying, but the Imperial Army has always been a leader in military merit. How much military merit can these small forces that they destroy in the wilderness have? Murphy's Dragon Armor should be a weapon in the army of Zhan, the strength of the final word, no military merits, what to do with the emperor to make conditions for the migration of more than 20,000 family members together,
More than 20,000 men who left their hometowns, mentioned that the family was not in tears, what is it to be buried in this shit-not-none wilderness? Seeing that the empire has been continuously transporting supplies outside the long wall for more than half a year, I heard that the granary in the Yueshan Valley already accounts for more than half of the valley. Even if it is a hundred thousand people, it is enough to eat for three or four months. It is to prepare for the famine in winter, deceiving ghosts! Rui Tangtingna of the East Court drove fifty thousand prairie cavalry out of the north wall, and tens of thousands of empire’s central troops frequently mobilized in the long wall area, nominally to strengthen the frontier defense, so why not let the army quickly adapt to the wilderness environment and gain momentum Ready to go like a bow and string,
At this time, Murphy O'Born didn’t know that the emperor would make a big move on the Dongting Grassland before **** hell.
The vast prairie in winter is the season of silvery white. A team of cavalry wearing felt hòu leather armor slowly enters the camp set up along the curved waters. The howling wind envelops the cold and hits the face, one by one. The face of the dark red prairie man, the snow just stopped last night, the air was filled with a fresh smell, horseshoes stepped on the soft snow and mud, making a squeaking sound.
The leading cavalry squad captain Bogo Zhuoying jumped off the horse and used his four-cornered eyes to leisurely sweep the situation in the camp. The ground was white and the wind was blowing, like a pair of invisible hands gently brushing across a piece. Pieces of snow rice, neatly rolling forward, the earth is boundless, what a beautiful place, the vast land where people forget their existence,
"I am also a respected centurion, why should I be a horse thief?"
Bogo Zhuoying sighed secretly. This is the third month that he removed the tribal mark from his armor and became a horse thief. Horse thief is no stranger to prairie people. In fact, there has never been a horse thief on the prairie. Only those cowardly southerners would call those tribal cavalry who had looted temporarily as horse thieves. The prairie people generally welcome caravans, and they can bring weapons and food, while taking away excess cattle and sheep. Squadrons have always been the most popular existence, so the grassland tribes generally automatically protect the caravans within their control range. Otherwise, if the caravans are destroyed by the enemy or won’t come next time, no one knows how many There will be a caravan coming in a year later, but the above command is like this. The elites from the frontier army will be deployed to pretend to be horse thieves and keep an eye on the movement of the opposite Falcon Imperial Army.
The power of the imperial army is now like a dark cloud covering the sky. This vast land, with a large number of powerful cavalry like raging wolves, represents the cruelty, powerful, and even the eighth army of the East Court. The Lord Zamu Hebi inside died in the hands of the empire. They all said that there was a quarrel on the grassland court, and the nobles of all races clamored for revenge, but until now, I haven't seen any cavalry come. Doubt, Boguo Zhuoying is not clear, but the above order is that the range of patrol must be expanded to 50 miles every day. It seems that the above seems to have noticed something,
Bogo Zhuoying came to an unfrozen river beach in the camp and stopped. The clear river water poured out from the snow-white ground, and Bogo Zhuoying poured water into the skin that he carried with him by the river. At the time, a cavalry who stooped to wash his face suddenly pointed to the far west, his face was horrified and shouted, "Look, what's that?" Bogo Zhuoying quickly turned around and only glanced at it, and his face changed drastically. They shouted, "Get on the horse. It's the imperial cavalry!" The prairie people in the camp hurriedly ran around in a panic, re-installing their saddles on the horses, and some even looked for the horses that ran far away to graze. Quite messy
In the direction of the ice field to the west, the swift black thread envelops something like white mist, and rushes toward this side fiercely. At this time, the sun has just exposed half of his face from the clouds, and the light dark clouds are like a layer of black gauze. , The low morning mist has dispersed. In the dim morning light, black lines emerged from the edge of the grass, and a large stretch of dim and messy stretches of road at an infinite distance, teams of cavalry began to rush down like a huge arc. The air was suffocated and solidified at this moment, the brilliance of the metal flashed with the breath of killing, the black sky also showed light at this moment, a layer of golden light appeared in the east, dozens of long and narrow black spots began to slowly move forward. The elite cavalry with full light armor appeared on the frozen grass mound in the distance. Under the horse's hoof was the mist that had not completely dissipated. The cavalry lance in his hand formed a cold-lighted forest in the mist, and several huge queues were like a piece of land. The sea of war horses.
Murphy Obern was riding a horse on a grassy hill. The cold wind was blowing his strong short hair. He wore a cross-shaped helmet on his head. His eyes were dignified and cold. Ruthless,
"Send the squadrons forward, and flatten the lairs of those horse bandits!" Murphy Obern raised his hand indifferently. The horse bandit camp here is a good choice, found in the frozen wilderness. A place where there are still grass roots and water sources is not easy. In the distance on the horizon, some messy grassland tents are scattered there. From a distance, they look like a large white sheep, in the early morning air like smoke and dust. There is still white smoke for breakfast, Bogo Zhuoying, the most sturdy one among the horse thief,
The battlefield fierce Murphy Obern, who has been silent since the Southwest War, naturally knows what happened to the horse bandits who appeared and disappeared on the border. If they were the horse bandits who plundered the caravan, it would have been After being strangled by the eastern cavalry on the opposite side, there will be more and more blows there. The biggest one is like the Boguo Zhuoying in front of me. It has increased to 500 knights. Many of them are fast horses and light knights who are good at bow shooting. , It is a replica of the elite cavalry of the East Court. The regular army of the East Court chose to retreat. It is normal to use horse thieves as eyeliner. How can we tolerate the existence of these clowns in the face of the upcoming big moves of the empire?
The horse bandit’s lair has been ascertained a long time ago. Just 50 miles across the border of the East Court, the long wall asked for the border to be cleared. Basically, it means that we can go to war with the East Court to a certain extent. This is the last chance for Murphy's dragon cavalry to show their sharpness~IndoMTL.com~If you can't enter the magic eye of the Falcon Emperor again, even if the elite on this battlefield is completely destroyed by yourself, so this time, I will do my best In the end, if it can provoke the regular army on the opposite side to take action, it would be a better situation.
The grassland with billowing smoke, hundreds of tents are emitting dense smoke, the red flames lick the felt top of the tents like greedy cats, a section of burning tent supports, crackling in the flames The explosion sounded, sparks were blown apart by the wind. In the burning camp, thousands of corpses were lying in the muddy blood, scattered materials, broken bends. Knife, and the corpses of war horses lying in a group, there are still the screams of the sheep in the sheep pen, but their masters have become cold corpses on the ground,
The Murphy dragon cavalry who searched past galloped by, and every horseshoe stepped splashed with bright red human blood on the ground, thick and stupefying, and splashed onto the sheep's curls. , Seems so shocking,
Boguo Zhuoying’s half of his body was lying in the water. Almost all the bones on his body were crushed by heavy horseshoes. He couldn’t figure it out until he died. He was such a camp, worthy of the imperial army on the opposite side. Thousands of people come to encircle and suppress?
On February 4, Murphy Obern, the Imperial Northwest Wilderness Army, personally led 20,000 Murphy Dragoons into the territory of the Eastern Court. In the name of encircling and suppressing horse thieves, they strangled more than 3,000 troops from the Eastern Court and opened them.
