Power and Empire Chapter 2527: Imperial Wind (2)
"Opened the city of Mettan, but opened the door to central and southern Istanbul. Perhaps the entire Obaro continent believed that the main goal of the imperial army’s southward withdrawal was the coalition base camp, which combined more than Millions of troops, the battle between the north and the south on the land and the sea. It’s time to end. In fact, they were all wrong. At the first high-level military conference, the Falcon Emperor made a very clear decision. With the ultimate goal of this battle, the empire will march to the south!
"To defeat the Allied Forces in the South and take all the Istanbul region into the empire's territory is only incidental. The real goal of the empire is only one, and that is to invade the south." The empire has never thought of suffering a dumb loss. How could it be so easy to let go of the battle, there is no relationship, it has never been the style of the empire, if you don’t fight, if you want to fight, you will have a toothache when you think of the Falcon Empire. This is the violent power of the empire along the way. The style of work. If the empire wants to establish its absolute control over the north of the Obarone Sea and occupy the strategic geographical location of the Great Promenade of Istanbul, it must not just stop at the result of driving the enemy away. This time it can defeat the South. , When the South regained its vitality, wouldn’t it be possible to fight another North-South war? If that is the case, the Istanbul region will only become a quagmire of war between the two sides. No matter how rich and fertile it is, it will only bury the bones of soldiers.
The Southern Allied Forces were able to mobilize nearly a million troops, and the Empire also had this inferior force. The Southern Allied Forces’ navy was severely damaged, and the Army’s troops were put into the battlefield in batches, which has been consumed by the previous wars. , And the main force of the Imperial Army is now the morale stepping into this real battlefield of the North-South war,
At this time, the entire Obalo may not know how much force the empire has in this war. There may be only one person who knows this, and that is the supreme command of this war between the North and the South, the ruler of the mighty northern empire. , The Falcon Emperor, at least the power currently in the hands of the Emperor, without counting the navy, the military layout is as follows: 100,000 people in the direction of Merkgar, 200,000 people in the direction of Istanbul, and mobilized from the direction of Feshan The imperial force is 300,000, the 100,000 cavalry of the East Court and Hungary, and the 50,000 cavalrymen of the West Court that have just arrived, the total number of the imperial army of 750,000, the total number of cavalry alone has reached 200,000, and They are all frontline elites who can really fight. In comparison, there are only hundreds of thousands of southern coalition forces who stand in front of the 700,000 empire who only want to escape.
This war is no longer going to be fought in the South, but the North is going to fight, endless death!
If the six countries in the South knew this was the situation at first, they would not have launched a decisive battle between the North and the South. Although the Falcon Empire in the North was strong, it was still separated by a wide inland sea, although there was a big one. Influence, but mainly concentrated on the economy. The so-called strong rise of the North threatened the South, mainly because the southern monarchs used the reason for war. Soon, they knew not only that they were wrong, but also that the wrong was too outrageous. In the war, the biggest loss in the South was not the 700,000 soldiers, but a more important thing, the control of the southern coastal areas! "-No excerpt from the third volume of "Ten Opportunities for Empire Expansion".
The army headed south, the night was cold and cold, and the iron armor was frozen. In the dark night, the heavy horseshoes stepped into the spreading shallow water like a mountain and the ground cracked. A burst of white spray was rolled up, and countless black cavalry swarmed forward. In the wilderness, this is the former cavalry cluster of the main force of the empire coming to the south, leaving 30,000 people to guard the surrendered Maitan City coalition force of 100,000. The main force of the Empire army immediately marched southward without stopping, and the coalition base camp left the city of Maitan City. It took more than twenty hours, but according to the speed of the infantry group, if the cavalry were driven to chase overnight, it might not be impossible to catch up, but it was not until the next day that the cavalry group had already set foot in the outskirts of Merkgar, and the scouts reported that it was extremely unlikely. In order to be sure, the scout even leaned forward for thirty miles, which was the same result!
The whole team stops! "
The fat man raised his hand, the cavalry group began to slow down and stop, and the rumbling of horseshoes gradually subsided. For the scout's report, the fat man knew what was wrong. Most of the coalition forces were infantry. The speed didn’t get up at all, but from the time he left Maitan, he felt something was wrong, but because it was night and riding on horseback, he couldn’t pay too much attention to the details, so he paid too much attention to it. But now, the sky is getting brighter. When he got up, he suddenly realized what was wrong. It was in the front. There was no trace of the army marching. If hundreds of thousands of army really passed through here, but only a few hours' gap, how could everything disappear. !
" Your Majesty, what's the matter! "Raidang Tingna is wearing red chain mail, clinging to her graceful figure, behind her gorgeous long princess cloak is blown to dance by the wind, and a group of Eastern cavalry roars over, the grassland Human cavalry is indeed more exquisite than the average imperial cavalry and the Hungarian cavalry. After a night of turbulence, even if the average cavalry can persist, it will inevitably be exhausted. Even the Hungarian cavalry seems a little depressed. But these Eastern Cavalry, one by one, seemed to be full of energy instead of running all night, but sleeping on horseback. The fat man knew the habit of Eastern Cavalry, and he really had the habit of sleeping on horseback, especially suitable for long-distance running. , As long as the front cavalry is the leader, the other horses will consciously keep up, and the eastern cavalry above can rest safely
" For unknown reasons, the hundreds of thousands of the main force of the coalition forces southward disappeared! "The fat man's eyes swept across the wilderness in front of him coldly, his gaze was so sharp that he dared not look directly, he ran all night, and found that the prey was lost. He was naturally a little angry in his heart. Doesn't he believe that on such a flat terrain, the hundreds of thousands of horses of the coalition forces can find a place to hide?
"Gone? No, could it be that the scout missed it?" Rui Tangting said cautiously. The unconcealed anger in the fat man’s words caused the surrounding atmosphere to sink. Don’t look at the nearby The imperial generals are all Titans on the battlefield. Facing the pressure of His Majesty Falcon, except for His Royal Highness the Princess, who dares to say a word at this moment!
" An army of more than 100,000 people cannot be found if only a few people are scattered on the ground. How can there be no traces in the places where hundreds of thousands of people have walked, even if it may not be walking along the road? I haven’t found a trace for ten miles, that’s absolutely impossible!” The fat man curled his mouth slightly, holding the whip in his hand, and said calmly, “Unless the other party can fly? Otherwise, the only possibility is that the other party hasn’t gone silent at all. The direction of Keghal! We ran all night, but we ran off the track!" Fatty didn't know that his judgment was infinitely close to the truth, but the coalition did not go to Merkgar, and the coalition did not know it. The temporary change of course saved the whole The danger of annihilation of the coalition forces
"Come here, get the map!" The fat man ordered loudly, if the coalition hadn't left Merk'gar, where would they go? The accompanying guards immediately fetched the map of the Istan Empire, spread the gilt-edged leather map on a flat stone, and set their sights on the central part of the Istan Empire between Maitan and Merkgar. From the Ministry of Military Affairs in Kyoto, Istanbul, the above records are very detailed for the local area of Istanbul.
The goal of the coalition forces is to rescue Merkgar, because only by getting the supplies of Merkgar can they have the capital to evacuate toward the southern border. But now, the coalition forces don’t even want Merkgar, which proves the base camp of the southern coalition forces. I have decided to abandon Merk'gar and use the time when the Imperial Army is concentrated on Merk'gar to break through the interception of the Imperial Army,
Judging from the map, the central part of the Istanian Empire is shaped like a fat stomach, large and small rivers, and the mountains from south to north are as complicated as stomach folds. The road to the south from Mettan City is like Merkgar. In addition, there are two more. One is passing through the Rikopu province east of Merkgal. The fat man knows that the Rikopu province is already under the control of the Imperial Army. Although the stationed troops are not many, it is far from the Empire in Merck. The main force in the Gar area is not far away, and it is unlikely that the coalition forces will choose to pass through the province of Rikop. Because alarming the defenders of Rikopu is equivalent to alarming the imperial forces in Merkgar, so the greatest possibility for the coalition is another. One,
Fatty's gaze shifted to another road. Even at the first glance, Fatty can definitely be this road. The reason is simple. This road and the road leading to Merkgar actually converge at a fork. , And this road is not a plain area, but through the winding Lokasti Mountains in central Istanbul, to the mountain city west of Merkgar, Kutas City. If you want to escape, you will also choose This road, because it is a complex mountain plateau, the cavalry force most likely to be used by the empire to pursue the southern base camp will be greatly reduced here. As for the supplies for the south escape, the fat man hardly needs to think and know what the coalition base camp will do.
Kutas City is undoubtedly over! In order to escape, the coalition base camp will absolutely ransack this mountain city in the shortest time, and the so-called shortest is naturally the fastest way to slaughter, looting, and looting. Of course, the coalition base camp can force the residents of Kutas city to take food. Take it out, but it’s a waste of time. The entire city of Kulaas has tens of thousands of residents, and it’s a barren mountain city. It’s impossible for the 150,000 coalition army to get enough food to flee south. It’s only a waste of time. This is possible only when the city is hollowed out. The problem is only control. Once the coalition forces withdraw, such news leaks out, and the Imperial Army is chasing after the wind. The infantry of the Southern Allied Forces can no longer run, and it is impossible to run past the Imperial Cavalry. Horseshoe, if the news does not leak out in a short time, the only way to kill all the people in the city!
"Let me know who made the idea, I must cut off his head"
The fat man gritted his teeth in a low voice, raised his head and looked far away, with a bit of anger in his eyes towards the distant ridge. The central and southern part of Istanbul has been regarded by him as his own. Now that a city has been slaughtered in this way, it made him feel very angry. It was really careless. He did not expect that there were such ruthless people on the coalition side. They would completely abandon the besieged Merkgar, regardless of the life and death of the 100,000 coalition forces on the Maitan side. , Ran to the south on his own, and if it hadn't surrendered in the direction of Maitan City, it would have saved a lot of time, and he might be able to escape back! At this time, the road to turn back to Kutas City is obviously impossible. After the coalition forces obtain supplies in Kutas City, they will inevitably flee southward. Once hundreds of thousands of people are dispersed and run, they must gather to annihilate them. It’s not that easy. Fortunately, the map shows that the road to the south of Kutas City passes through a place called Crow Pass, which is the junction of the Kutas Plateau and the southern hills of Istan, from the direction of Merkgar. About eighty li, for the infantry group, such a distance needs to run for one day, but for the cavalry with high mobility, eighty li is not a problem, now it can only be seen whether the coalition is running fast or running by yourself. It's coming soon!
The plateau city of Kusta City, a huge flame is engulfing the city, black smoke billows, the blocks between the cities are enveloped, 150,000 people in the coalition base camp are in order to get enough food from this small city to flee south, yes The entire city launched a massacre. The coalition forces first deceived the city gate of Kusta. The city of Kusta was stationed by a garrison in the Istanmolva region. The governor of the region was watching the battle between the southern coalition and the imperial army. Attitude, in the face of the coalition forces appearing in the mountains outside the city, how dare a garrison commander offend him?
The defensive regimental commander obediently opened the city gates, and took a few of his men to the base camp of the Allied Forces to welcome Darius Anshi, "Everyone came from afar, and on behalf of Governor Ruth Baiyu, I would like to express my eagerness to all the adults. An extremely welcome" The captain of the garrison knelt on one knee and did not even dare to lift his head. He did not know why the main coalition forces appeared here, but the current situation of the coalition forces is very bad. He still knows it and hopes these guys will soon. Click to go. I heard that Merkgar is about to be captured. Now that so many people appear here, is it also defeated by the north? Just as the garrison commander was making various speculations in his heart, he heard a slightly cold voice coming from the front,
"Welcome? That would be disrespectful!"
Darius Anshi will look at a defensive captain. The city of Kusta in front of him is a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Although a little thinner, it’s better than nothing. If you find the supplies here, you can return to your country. As for the imperial army, it would be delayed for a few days in Maitan, and then it would never have occurred that the coalition forces would bypass Merk'gar, and even if the city of Maitan was breached, it would be far away. Can't catch up!
"Everyone has heard~ IndoMTL.com~ We are very popular!" He said with a sneer from the corner of his mouth to the generals around the world
"Haha" there was a roar of laughter. I came to slaughter, but I was still welcomed. No wonder such Istanians are going to perish!
"The city of Kusta is right in front of you, so you are welcome. You can take everything you can take, and you don’t need to turn in. Whoever takes more will have an extra guarantee. Remember, we have a lot of time. It’s tight. Three hours later, I hope to see a lot of food. As for people, let’s burn it together!"
"What! Everyone, you are..." The garrison commander was completely frightened, and a few screams behind him made him turn around dullly and saw several colleagues who came with him. A dozen sharp spears were pierced at the same time, and the tip of the gun came out from the chest. The blood exploded and splashed on him. The reason why he was fine is because Darius Anshi likes to look at people with a look of extreme horror,
saw his subordinates being killed, and saw coalition forces rushing madly towards the open city gate. The garrison commander didn’t know what was going to happen. That was a fool. I thought it was because he opened the city gate on his own initiative. In such a situation, the garrison commander spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth
"You beasts! Ah!" He made a stern cry from his mouth, drew out his sword and wanted to rush forward, and pierced his body with seven or eight stabbing spears, setting him up, with blood floating in the air , This garrison commander’s body is very strong, even so, he is still struggling to pull out the spear that pierced the body, but this is in vain, his **** quickly disappeared, and the city in the distance , There is a **** color in his dissipated pupils!
