Power and Empire Chapter 2905: Mad Blood (16)

Starr, commander of the Eleventh Army of the Eero Empire, felt that he was dying. He said that the Karoo River would converge. He had been waiting here for two days, and neither the Seventh Army nor the Ninth Army had seen the shadows. One, just a new order from the base camp. The seventh and ninth armies were unable to converge due to special tasks, and the 11th armies were required to defend the Karoo River alone! When the Eleventh Army Commander Starr saw this new order, he almost fainted on the spot. The joke was too big. On the opposite side was a full 300,000 enemies, and the Eleventh Army was full of five. Wan took the lead, and because it was an active offensive, all kinds of heavy equipment did not follow up. Only fifty thousand infantry equipped with ordinary infantry, wanting to stick to the Karoo River without losing it, it is not a pipe dream! If it weren’t for the strict military regulations of Eero, His Majesty had given the order of death before the war. Those who fled without a fight, regardless of their military position, would be cut off as deserters. Starr, who was already at a loss, had already taken the order. The Eleventh Legion is gone!

Similarly, after sending scouts to observe for two consecutive days, the Kingdom of Aden has basically determined the strength of the Erotians in the Karu River, that is, there is only one legion. After confirmation, the Aden Army is no longer polite. On the 6th of the month, the sky gradually lighted up from the horizon. There was no cloud in the distance, and the earth became more boundless. Rhythmic drum beats came from behind the hills in the distance, and a large number of small black spots flew into the air at once. , It was a bird that was alarmed early in the morning, the ground was rumbling, a lot of smoke and dust rolled up like a typhoon, it felt like a huge beast was approaching the Karoo River behind the hills

"Attention, the people of Aden are coming!" The sentry tower placed on the side of the river towards the people of Aden is already full of black smoke. The Eero light cavalry, who is responsible for investigating the movements of the people of Aden, is like a huge force. I drove the same, and ran towards the Karoo River like crazy. After a while, I saw black spots on the horizon in the distance, and countless shadows appeared from the morning mist, densely packed with people's heads. Unclear. Boom, boom, boom! "With the drum beat of the Yading Army, the footsteps of countless pairs of feet constantly stepped on and lifted, and even the ground was trembling. Amidst the whiteness, the oppressive force gathered by tens of thousands of people came oncoming, and the psychological quality was poor. A little bit, I'm afraid I will be scared and turn around and run away!

"Hurry up, line up!" The Eleventh Army ran in a panic. The soldier who reached his position rubbed his eyes that were not fully awake. When he saw the situation in front of him, his face turned pale. How many people are this, boundless, thinking of the various ridicules of the veterans these days, the knuckles of the recruits holding their weapons are a bit whitish, even if it is more than 20 meters across the river, the wind from the opposite side is still A lot of smoke was blown across from the opposite side, swiping on the face, but no one was willing to wipe it. They were motionless in their respective positions, occasionally moving, and taking a deep breath of nervousness. Everyone tensed, far away. The enemies here seem to have no end. The Eero soldiers couldn’t help but leaned back slightly, seemingly unable to withstand the murderous agitation coming on their faces

"It's the undead army of the Aden people!" In some queues with veterans, panic sounds have sounded,

I saw the front of the Aden Army in front of me. There were countless people in ragged clothes crowding people. I couldn't see the end. The yellow and thin faces were completely numb. These Aden slaves, known as the Undead Army, only took them in their hands. With simple ironware, wooden sticks, and the others are pieces of wooden shields, only red eyes show that the other party is still alive,

"Kakaka" This is the friction sound of wooden wheels crushed on dry and hard ground. Under the surprised gaze of the Eero soldiers, I saw that the Aden Army in front of them launched a series of rough and rotten wooden frames. The row of cars, each wooden car is driven by thirty to fifty slaves, and animal skins used to block arrows are erected in front of them. Under the difficult push of manpower, they are heading towards the river with an unstoppable momentum. After platooning the cars, there are hundreds of long ladders woven with branches and stems. These long ladders are spliced ​​and bundled with three to four meters long ladders. They are obviously used as pontoon bridges to cross the river. These ladders are placed on the row of cars, and the heavy row of cars is pressed into the river with sandbags and big rocks. , Is the simplest kind of pontoon, but these long ladders have neither a weighted base nor a fixed groove, which clearly shows that the life and death of these slaves are not lowered. For the Aden nobles, as long as they can Filling up this river, killing thousands of slaves is really nothing, even if the pontoon is useless, just fill it in with corpses!

"Humble animals, don't get out of the way right away. It is your greatest honor to serve the master! For lazy people, only punishment is the most effective"

Behind these numb-looking Aden slaves, the Aden cavalry carried their whip upside down and galloped back and forth between the crowd, shouting fiercely and urging the slaves to move forward. The whip in their hand was waving vigorously, seeing Those who are behind are beaten, regardless of the old and young. For the slave who fell on the way, he directly raised the scimitar in his hand and slashed it on the opponent's stomach. Under the acceleration of the war horse, it often made a cut. You can break the person’s stomach open, and the heart, lungs and intestines will be mixed up at once, letting the other party hold their hands, there will always be a lot of them coming out of the fingers, stained with the messy dust outside, watching the other party die for a while. Nope, rolling on the ground and crying bitterly, the Aden cavalry who dropped their swords often laughed loudly. They can smash the belly of a beast with one stab. How can it be considered a good sword technique? Because there are a lot of rubble on the ground, many barefoot slaves of Aden have scars of blood under their feet.

The control of the slaves by the Aden people is completely cruel. If one person resists, they kill a whole group of people. The daily food is only a thin water soup that can see the shadow. Every time they set off to move, they only send it. Food for two days, that is to say, if someone escapes, they will starve to death on the way to escape. If they are caught back, it will be even more miserable. Decapitation is considered light. Stripping of human skin is just a general criminal law. The limbs are the most basic, and there is another punishment that the Aden nobles like most. That is to tie the slave limbs to a one-meter-sized rolling stone bullet, and then throw it away with heavy slings. Normally, the slave above It will be turned into a pile of flesh and blood residues by the rolling stones, and even the internal organs of the body will be squeezed out, leaving a thin line of human skin, which became the object of the Aden nobles to show off. The leaders of some slaves resisted often. Such treatment!

"His Royal Highness Bi Khan, where is the small Karoo River worth coming by yourself, only a charge is needed, and the subordinates promise to take it down for you!" Retracted from the chaotic situation of the Erot Army in the distance Looking at him, a general Aden, wearing a red cloak behind him, riding a black horse, and wearing a delicate patterned armor, raised his head and said flatteringly toward his master who was looking for joy in the back,

It was a bedcart with eight ornately decorated warriors. The curtain on the bedcart was blown by the wind, revealing a few Aden women who only draped a few pieces of cloth in key parts to hide their shame. With the urge to spurt blood, Bi Khan was half leaning on a long-haired woman, with her right arm around the waist of another woman, and comfortably swallowed a purple-red grape into her mouth under the wait of several female slaves. Hearing the outside sound, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he snorted very dissatisfied, "Lin Erla, dogs that can only bark often don't live long, because the owner's favorite is a dog that can bite!" I'll give you half of them, and I can't get the Karoo River, you can see how I can deal with you!"

"Your Highness can rest assured, and your subordinates promise that at noon, your Highness will definitely be able to go to the opposite bank of the Karoo River to enjoy the scene of the beheading of the captives of Eero." The general Aden smiled and turned around, the flattery on his face was completely Disappeared, replaced by an extremely cold look, and took a deep breath, "Everyone has heard the order of your Highness, then let's start!"

The general raised his hand to the waiting army in front. It was a total of 20,000 Aden nobles. The armor of these Aden regular army was very gorgeous. Even the archers had light soft armor, and the camel cavalry The horse is covered with felt. With a sharp machete on his waist, there is also a team of people wearing heavy armor, horse-covered armored horses, cold and murderous, Aden noble heavy cavalry, they are the personal guards of the Aden nobles, and they are also the strongest in the Aden army. Although the number of warriors is not large, behind these armored riders are surrounded by a tall blue flag. The flag is blown by the wind and looks quite spectacular, regardless of the huge behind them. How could the women's gasping sound come from the bed, the faces of these Aden knights are coldly facing the front like a hungry wolf

At this moment, the whole world seems to be silent for an instant

The horn representing the beginning of the attack was blown by the thirty strong men in Aden lined up with their cheeks. The slaves in front began to charge towards the river in front of them like a landslide. At this time, Soldier Luo could see clearly that the hands of each team of Aden slaves who came running were tied together by a rope, so that even if someone tried to escape or pretended to be dead, they would be dragged away by their forward companions. Many people When he ran slowly, he was dragged forward on the ground. It was extremely tragic. When countless such slaves of Aden moved forward at the same time, except for the numbing footsteps, they could not even hear the cry of crying.

"Archer!"

The Eero army shouted. After two days of various propaganda, the Eero soldiers knew that once they were approached by these slaves of Aden, they would be lucky to die. I heard that many people were bitten by these slaves alive. It's dead, it's hard to believe the argument of management, but at this moment, what else can I choose besides believe! The Eero soldier’s face was extremely ugly, there was a commotion, and the fingers pulling the bowstring were trembling slightly. Although they knew that they might face this day, they had no choice. The infantry in the front rushed to the riverside, their eyes hidden under the thick helmets. With a trace of tremor, the hand holding the spear seemed to have a heavy weight, and beads of sweat rolled down from their foreheads. The beasts were all beasts on the opposite side. Even if they were hacked to death, don't be eaten! These heavy infantry murmured in their mouths to cheer themselves up,

"Long live Eero!" In the extremely suppressed atmosphere, the Eleventh Corps Commander Starr, wearing a back armour, uttered a loud cry. No matter how he heard it, there was a hint of despair. As the commander of the army, Si Taer stood on the front of the river. Although he was blocked by more than a dozen guards, his body tremblingly swayed. His adjutant and brother-in-law were right next to him and said hurriedly, "Call it a few more times, anyway. Before the people of Aden rushed up, it proved that you were on the river. Even if the emperor pursued it, the adults can escape punishment by using the excuses of being on the front line and being seriously injured! Or everyone would be able to run back alive, Will be led out one by one and beheaded!"

"Shoot!"

At this moment, the archers of the Erot Army released their fingers, and countless clusters of arrows flew out, like a large black area that turned into raindrops in an instant, and metal waterfalls blasted from the sky, countless The cluster of arrows was like being photographed by a pair of huge black hands from high in the air, and the slaves of Aden suddenly fell tragically. The queue of slaves that were still running was messed up, because people were strung together and fell down. One will drag down the other. If a few people in a team are hit by arrows, then the whole team will roll over to the ground, and countless blood will explode. The flow of people will be like being hit by a huge palm of some kind. ,

"Yes~IndoMTL.com~ That's it, don’t let them come close." The sight of the trembling Eleventh Army Commander Starr’s face showed a touch of joy, but his shouts hadn’t been fully heard. When he came out, he swallowed again. At this moment, he realized that he was wrong. The slaves of Aden rolled a lot of arrows, but for the densely packed Aden people behind, it was just a drop in the bucket. The people who came up from behind looked like the front. Covered, before the river, there was already a crowd of people, as if no one was hitting an arrow at all. The undead was really terrifying. It seemed to be stimulated by the smell of blood, but it aroused the brutality of the Aden people. The slaves of Aden, who were still numb, suddenly became crazy, holding the arrow clusters falling above their heads, jumping down the river channel like dumplings, and no matter the current rushing, they directly swept away people. People roll over people, people push people, there are too many people to hold the river,

"Squeeze, you can't let them come up!" The Eero heavy infantry standing on the river screamed frantically, and the spear in his hand was slammed at the slaves of Aden who surged up from the opposite river, "crushing" the spear. Stabbing out from the gap between the shields, I saw a spear falling like a wall, like breaking a mountain and breaking the sea. A sharp whistling sound pierced in from the gap between the shabby shields of the slaves of Aden. At this moment, the soldiers of Eero who were fighting hard seemed to I heard a strange buzzing sound. The violent whistling sound even faintly covered the rapid rain-like heavy drumming, the sky suddenly darkened, (to be continued.)
