Power and Empire Chapter 3057: The wind of the empire (18)


   isn't it the caravan of the Yelv family, then what are these imperial ballistas!

  Who doesn’t know in the entire Central and Bialand, the imperial ballista, a battlefield weapon that can pierce heavy armor even if it is two to three hundred meters apart, has always been a signature weapon of the empire and a powerful force of the empire. The symbol of the prairie nomads is also a weapon against the cavalry of the nomads.

  I didn’t know how many warriors of the wolf sharp army were shot dead in the Ao Na Cuo grassland.

   Seeing the Imperial Ballista equipped only by the elite of the Empire appeared in the convoy below, Wu Sugu knew that he had hit an iron plate this time. He had also heard about the Imperial Ballista at the beginning. , Several powerful leaders, united to ask the imperial merchants to purchase this weapon, on the spot, the imperial merchant who was respected as a distinguished guest was scared white, and he bluntly stated that he was nothing. I didn’t hear, and you didn’t say anything. It’s best not to mention it in the future, otherwise as long as there is a whiff of news back to the empire, not only will I be arrested by the emperor, but my family will also be killed. , Don’t look at my strong strength in China and Bahrain. In fact, I am a slightly better role in the imperial business community. Even the twelve deacons of the business alliance dare not touch things, how dare I touch them!

   And Wu Gusu doesn't even think that he will have any intersection with the Imperial Ballista, but now, he feels that the whole world has collapsed. How could the Imperial Ballista appear here!

   "Where's that Kurui, grab him for me"

  Usu Gu’s hysterical face was full of hatred, and his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. Looking at the cavalry of the Catiba Division who turned back and forth, the intestines in the stomach were regretful, and a pair of fists were fierce. Squeezed and shouted angrily

  " Patriarch, Kurui ran away just now!" The chief Qianqi of the Catiba department next to him reminded him with an ugly face

   "What! Run away?" Wu Sugu was startled, his face was white like paper. If he didn't know that he was deceived by someone now, he would be a deaf blind man.

  "When, why don’t you stop him! Wusu Gu asked angrily and loudly

   "Just when the patriarch ordered the cavalry to charge" the voice of the chief Qianqi of the Catiba department paused, took a deep breath, and continued, "The change just now covered everyone. When the reaction came, he found out that the merchant Kurui was missing. The subordinates inquired and realized that just when the adults ordered the cavalry to charge, Kurui retreated on the grounds that the murder scene was too bloody. There is no adult. The guards next to him did not dare to stop him. Everyone knows that this businessman is a guest of the patriarch these days. How dare we little people stop him!"

   "Anza, what do you mean!"

   Wu Gusu looked at the Qianqi chief with an angrily look. He was also the patriarch at any rate. How could the other party talk to him like this? You must know that the hierarchical concept within the steppe tribe is very strong. Under normal circumstances, A Qianqi chief dare to mock the patriarch in this way, and the result is that his head is cut off and the flag hung on the top of the big tent is dried out

  "It’s meaningless, the patriarch still thinks about this now. If it’s me, I’d better worry about how to clean up this situation." The long-term Qianqi’s mouth curled slightly with disdain, no Put Wu Sugu in your eyes,

   The Wusugu in front of him can become the patriarch of the Katiba tribe. He was completely pushed up by several great nobles in the clan. There is no capable subordinate under his hand to rely on, like Wusugu before. In the situation, no one would want to follow him and become the leader of a clan without a foundation. To put it bluntly, he is a puppet controlled by the great nobles in the clan. This idiot, really regards himself as the patriarch? I don’t want to think that this time the Catiba tribe climbed the big tree of the Fengtai tribe, and it is inevitable to turn their faces with the Yelu family. Those adults in the clan still need someone from the Wusu family who has made friends with the Yelu family. To support the facade

   "Yes, when attacking the imperial caravan, the patriarch still thinks about how to calm the empire's anger better!" Another thousand horses sneered,

   "Asshole, you guys..."

   Wu Sugu shook his figure and almost fainted on horseback

   The cavalry of the 10,000 Catiba tribe who launched the attack this time was borrowed from several big nobles in the clan, and originally wanted to bring it.

When I came to Liwei, I did not expect to fall directly into such a big pit. A puppet who temporarily supported him, how did he face such a situation?

  Those thousand horse chiefs from various nobles, although they call him the patriarch, there are not many who really listen to him. Wu Sugu's face is flushed with aggrieved redness, but there is no way. He knew that if he ordered the cavalry to cut off the two heads of Qianqi who despised him, he was afraid that his head would be cut off.

   It seems that the great aristocrats in the clan have already begun to be unable to bear to fight for power. It is not that these Qianqi Commanders feared themselves and did not stop the Kurui, but because the Qianqi Commanders were all fighting for power. Waiting to see my own jokes, the prestige move turned into a complete defeat of prestige, and I even saved myself how to deal with it

  Because they attacked the Imperial Caravan, driving the cavalry to raid the Imperial Caravan, this scapegoat is too big!

   "Well, what you said makes sense." Now Wu Sugu is messed up, and his tone softened a bit. He whispered to the two Qianqi chiefs, "What do you do now! Say it!" , What should we do?"

  "What can I do?" One of Qianqi's mouth was grinning, and he completely ignored him.

  Who doesn’t know, the empire has never been soft on the prairie tribes that plundered caravans. Even those hidden tribes that they think they are doing, or tribes that the empire thinks are beyond its reach, will often be stricken by the violent revenge from the empire. The fact that the army can’t make it through doesn’t mean that the empire is at a loss. The empire will directly issue bounties that are enough to make the hearts of most of the tribes enthusiasm, and even directly use weapons to fund hostile tribes. Therefore, there are not ten but seven or eight tribes annexed. And now, the army of the empire is in the northwest, on the flank of the Catiba Department!

   Qianqi Chang's heart has already marked the poor puppet patriarch as dead in advance,

   If the empire was still in the Northwest Wilderness in the past, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, as long as his hands and feet were neat and clean, he could condemn the attack on the imperial caravan and the robbers on the road. The problem is that now the 100,000 army of the imperial army is in the northwest. Looking at him, he looks ambitious, no one knows who the empire’s goal is,

  Yelü’s family has fallen into civil strife. Even the panicked ministries who want to fight against the empire’s eastward advance are already overwhelmed. Now the large and small tribes of the steppe people, they usually see the patrol of the Emperor’s army, they will go around. , I was afraid that it would provoke an accident on the other side, so I would inflict a disaster on myself. At this time, I had the courage to plunder the imperial caravan. This is not what it means to die! It is estimated that there is no need to return to the clan. This Wusugu patriarch will soon be driven into a prison wagon by the great nobles in the clan, and escorted all the way to the west, sent to the imperial barracks to have his head cut off, otherwise, what to get Calm the anger of the empire!

  ""My patriarch, let's order the cavalry to withdraw first! "

   An older Qianqi commander finally reminded him unbearably that he was also the younger brother of Lord Ural, who is known as the Northern Wind Horse, how could he be like this! I was so frightened by two thousand horse captains. As the leader of the clan, the Catiba clan commanding the name of the north wind, even if it is facing a strong enemy, the Catiba clan will not retreat. Why? What a patriarch came out, it was really a shame to the Katiba tribe. If the Ural-sama were commanding now, he wouldn't be in such a mess!

   Everyone knows that Kurui is a profiteer. In order to occupy the market, he colludes with the adults in the clan, bullies the market, and fights against his opponents in every way. If such a person says, can you believe it? But it is also true. Everyone thought that Kurui was not just a cunning businessman who could cause some trouble. This time it should also be aimed at hitting the caravan of the Yelu family who had been suppressing him. Unexpectedly, he stabbed the sky directly and provoke anyone. Okay, but if you get to the empire, will the caravan that can equip the empire ballista be an ordinary caravan?

   "Yes, withdraw, immediately order everyone to withdraw!" Wu Gusu finally recovered a little, like grabbing a life-saving straw, and quickly ordered the horn cavalry to blow the horn,

   Hearing his order, five Catiba cavalry with huge horns on their backs took off the horns, put them to their lips, and gave them all their strength.

   "Woo!" The prairie horn with a sad sound resounded across the sky. In fact, at this time, the cavalry charge of the Catiba Division had long been destroyed. The arrow cluster on the opposite convoy erupted like a storm of arrows. The cavalry of the Catiba Department who lashed like a whip

When I turned my head, I saw the arrow of rainstorm that obscured the sky and the sun. It directly shot the forward charging companion into a blood gourd. The horse was tumbling on the ground with blood, and then the imperial ballista was launched to destroy The chaotic Katiba’s cavalry pierced and shattered, and they lay down for more than two thousand horses before they were 100 meters away from the convoy.

   One-fifth of the force is over, whoever dares to join the rest!

   The cavalry hit the scattered line by this blow, and was directly shattered into countless small pieces. The impact was completely disintegrated, and the casualties could not be calculated. This was the first collision, and the Katiba cavalry collapsed in the name of good combat. The teeth, the Catiba cavalry who turned in a panic, collided with each other, the smoke and dust of chaos, and all kinds of yelling sounds,

   "Array!"

   On the side of the carriage, there are those Central and Bianlian people who were previously imprisoned slaves. They lined up in a line under the stunned sight of the Catiba cavalry, and took off the armor from the carriage. They were heavy. Shields and spears, with uniform commands

  "Papa" the huge steel shield smashed to the ground fiercely

   As the snow fell on the ground, an array of infantry like a concave arc appeared in front of the cavalry of the Katiba Ministry. The three-meter-long heavy spear towered like a forest. The long spear was like a forest, the army was like a mountain, and a shield. Between the shield and the shield, there are also infantrymen with strange crossbows in their hands aiming here,

   The red ribbon on the top of the helmet is fluttering in the wind, like a fire burning. Although it is invisible, everyone can feel it. Under the iron helmet, there are a series of cold and serious faces, and the breath that seems to be exhaled will be in front of your eyes. The scene freezes,

   "War!" The shouting, like thunder in a winter night, rolled around and spread out. This was the intent to fight, the intent to fight so high, and even everyone who saw it felt a piercing pain in the eyes, "Di* *Array!"

   All the Katiba cavalry and the far-away thousand horse captains who saw this scene tightened with bloodshot eyes, even the two thousand horse captains who were still laughing at this moment are all Holding my breath, the emperor’s battlefield was rumored to have killed the 50,000 prairie wolf sharp army in one fell swoop at Hona.

   "When the emperor’s army is erected, even the whistling grassland north wind will choose to turn around." This proverb has been circulated on the grassland for two years, and the emperor’s army has long been regarded as natural by the people of the grassland. It can contain the nemesis of the prairie cavalry. The prairie cavalry attacked the imperial army and was looking for death. Because of this concept, Yeluguda would choose to abandon 100,000 tribes and flee in the imperial wilderness, because once it is surrounded by the imperial army, Even if they all die, they can’t break through, and the 100,000 grassland tribes simply surrendered~IndoMTL.com~. It is true that the emperor army is really notorious in the eyes of the grasslanders

   retreat, it’s too late, almost in an instant, the steel array in front of you is like a huge hedgehog that suddenly opens, and the uneven array is like a huge bow drawn to the apex, this Zou Ranjian’s sense of silence , Is the most stressful,

   shoot!

   there is a sharp shout, whoosh whoosh! The white lines shot from the military formations are like a huge grid, and the panic-turned Catiba cavalry will shoot down from the war horses in front of the military formations, like huge interlaced chains, in the blink of an eye. Thousands of Catiba cavalry were crushed to pieces, and the flesh and blood of the Catiba cavalry was pierced like paper, and the blood and minced meat were exploded on horseback. The horse and the man were torn to pieces in an instant, and between the electric light and the flint, it was as if suddenly struck by a violent lightning

   The man leaned back on his horse, the blood blossomed in the air, and the corpse fell into the dust from the horse. The body was torn, and the thick steel arrow with blood spatter shot through the cut half of the corpse, deeply immersed in the second person's body, nailing the latter's corpse to the ground without wailing, because it was dead. Absolutely, the cavalry on horseback with a cluster of arrows stuck in it, and fell from the horse. The horse with arrows in it wailed on the ground, struggling, trying to get close to the master's body, and the bright red blood flowed along the gully on the ground. , The Gale Banner of the Catiba Department was severely trampled on the ground by the horse's hoof.

   "Run!" The cavalry of the Catiba Division completely collapsed, and Wu Sugu fell from horseback to the ground.
