Power and Empire Chapter 3249: Tianping (8)
The rain is hazy, and the Great Plain of Eero hit by heavy rain overnight is muddy. The eastern frontier army of more than 100,000 Eero is fully guarded and extends to the northeast. The mighty eastern frontier army of more than 100,000 Eero is on this plain. On the terrain at the border of the mountain, it extends a few miles in front and back. The radiation range of the army is elliptical
"Pay attention to your surroundings!" The entire cluster extending in front of the army is the scattered scout troops constantly conveying the surrounding situation back. It is really a bit scared to be beaten. The black armored cavalry that suddenly appeared last night is like the autumn wind. A leaf-sweeping attack has affected seven Eero Eastern Army teams, coming like a violent wind, and leaving like a violent wind. Although the fighting time is short, the intensity of the attack is even the strength of the Egyptian resident on the border fighting against the Kingdom of Aden. The Eastern Frontier Army also found it difficult to resist, and with the news that came back, the entire Eastern Frontier Army was shaken because these seven teams were not attacked back and forth, but encountered sweeping attacks almost at the same time. In this team, with the exception of the 13th Regiment of the Heavy Regiment, the other six teams are real first-line combat troops, but such combat troops also suffered heavy losses under the fierce attack of the other side. According to the statistics of the Eastern Frontier Army , Just a short period of fighting has caused 5,000 casualties in the eastern frontier
Occupying one-fortieth of the strength of the entire eastern frontier army, it was dug away with a single knife! With such an attack strength, the number of cavalry groups deployed by the opponent must be at least 20,000, and it is not known whether this encounter was a deliberate ambush by the opponent or just a coincidence. If it was an ambush, the result would be such a result. It is also understandable that with a mental arithmetic and unintentional, with cavalry groups of more than 20,000, the generals of the eastern frontier of Eero believed that they could achieve such a result, but if it was just a coincidence, it would be terrible. Who knows whether the unknown cavalry encountered last night is all or just a part of them!
"Is there a reply from your Majesty?"
The deputy commander-in-chief of the eastern frontier of Eero, Kabrin, stopped his horse on a slope, looking at the vast plain covered by the rain curtain in front of him with complicated eyes, as the largest grain-producing area of Eero Empire. It is also the most densely populated ruling center. There is still a little bit of prosperity in the royal capital area in front of him. Kabrin still remembers that just one year ago in the spring, he returned to the royal capital from the eastern border to present his work to the emperor. At that time, the road in front of him was densely packed with towns on both sides, and a large number of slaves were behind the noble carriages. Now, what he sees is only the broken villages, the towns with broken walls, and they have been under the flames of war. The large, scorched black blocks formed by the destroyed buildings are everywhere. Although the western part of the empire has been losing streak under the attack of the sect army for most of the past half year, it has even been pressured by the sect army to the outskirts of the capital, but that is just listening. The news that arrives is completely different from seeing the scene in front of you. "No, my lord! It may be that the heavy rain last night caused the cavalry to delay the trip, so the time of return was a little late." The handsome adjutant attendant with golden curly hair looked around. , Confidently replied to him, "Isn’t there yet? It’s been a whole night, even if it’s raining, there should be news!" Kabrin frowned slightly, and the place where he stopped last night was the same as the one requested by His Majesty the Emperor. The distance between Tiazi Fort is only 30 miles, and the speed of the cavalry is enough to go back and forth according to the order. Even if it rained heavily last night, there is no news until now. This is abnormal.
But to ask the question, Kabrin smiled awkwardly at the corner of his mouth. How could that be possible! Even if the Eastern Frontier Army arrived one night late, it would only take seven or eight hours. The Royal Capital Army under His Majesty the Emperor, plus the troops that were already close in front, is a total of more than 100,000 troops, only seven to eight hours. What can happen in hours!
"If the order goes on, the scout must be released ten miles away, tell the Spikes on both sides, the two hussar regiments on both sides, even if they are marching, they must maintain a combat posture, our opponent is a cunning and cruel hunter!" Kabrin He waved his hand to the adjutant. As the oldest deputy commander in the eastern frontier army of the Erot Empire, Kabrin has been in the eastern frontier army for 28 years. Although he is only the deputy commander, he is already in the army. Perform the duties of commander-in-chief, because the commander-in-chief of the eastern frontier army has always been assigned by the emperor’s confidant. His Majesty is ambitious and dedicated to pushing the Erot Empire onto the stage of regional hegemony. Is the army defending the east
Although the status is important, but because it is not within the strategic framework of the emperor, there are actually few real battles. Over time, the commander of the eastern frontier has naturally become a good place for the emperor to refresh his confidants’ resumes. The eastern side There are 200,000 troops. In the Eero Army, the third heavy group except the Royal Capital Army and the Imperial Guard. Since Eero Emperor Farouk came to power, he has served as the commander of the Eastern Frontier Army for ten years. There are six people, and the longest one has only stayed for two years. Many of the new commanders of the Eastern Frontier have not yet settled down, and even the generals have not been completely met, so they are ordered by the emperor. Transfer back to the capital
So the real daily affairs of the Eastern Frontier Army naturally fell on the shoulders of the deputy commander Kabrin, who has a 20-year resume. In fact, everyone understands that although the new commanders from the capital are all of the emperor. The confidant, in fact, the real confidant of the emperor is Deputy Commander Kabrin, an imperial marshal-level general who can sit firmly as the deputy commander of the 200,000 frontier army in the east for 28 years. In addition to his own abilities, the emperor is naturally It’s extremely trustworthy, and Kabrin is also worthy of the emperor’s trust. Because of Kabrin, the Aden army has not dared to cross the eastern border for ten years, even at the moment when the Eero Empire was invaded by the sect nation.
Kabrin's command of the eastern frontier army itself has reached a level of freedom. Even the Aden army as the opponent, as long as he hears that it is the leader of Kabrin, he will choose to retreat on the border. It’s not wise to be able to mobilize an army of 200,000 to fight against an opponent who is as easy as one’s own fingers. "It’s not someone else who said this, it’s the current King of Aden
Just like right now, although the 100,000-plus Eastern Frontier Army of Eero is advancing, the whole advancement can be called the art of command.
The two teams of helmets fluttered with white feathers, and the number of light cavalry was more than 3,000. The light cavalry was divided into two groups, followed by the two sides of the army, and then the light infantry regiment, the heavy infantry regiment, the archer unit, and the logistics unit. Divided into five groups, front, back and forth, guarding the center line, four thousand light cavalry drifting between the center line and the front line, with the most elite frontier guards as the main force, and the light cavalry heavy infantry, slowly advancing, Countless steps just stepped into the muddy army formation in front of you. As the army slowly moved forward, the flags stretched into pieces, and from time to time, scouts came to report on the situation before, after, and around.
"Didn't you find it? The tens of thousands of cavalry will disappear automatically, are you sure you missed something!" Kabrin Ning listened to the scout's report, his old face became more gloomy, and the enemy last night was completely like Disappeared. This situation gave the experienced frontier deputy commander a sense of hairiness. After the raid, he immediately flees. This kind of opponent is the most terrifying and troublesome, because no one knows what the opponent is next. When will the wave strike come, this forces the entire army to be in a tight line at all times. Fortunately, half an hour later, the scouts brought exciting news
Found the target trail! Although the heavy muddy rain washed away a lot of things last night, the trajectory of the tens of thousands of cavalry groups is not so easy to cover up, and according to the scout, the opponent did not mean to cover up at all, but a brazen army. After hearing the scout’s report, Kabrin immediately came to the muddy traces left by the large-scale horseshoes discovered by the scouts. The muddy ground trodden by countless horseshoes is completely different from the muddy ground washed by rain, just like a Kabrin face. Under the excited eyes, the muddy ground, the marks formed by countless horseshoes are all Mizusawa, and the range involved is countless, and why such a large number of enemy cavalry groups only used more than 10,000 troops to attack us. A hundred thousand-level eastern frontier army, and spread the remaining 20,000 troops over this area? Even a fool knows that the more troops that launch the attack, the more effective it is. If the opponent really has 30,000 people, in the raid war like last night, at least the result will be doubled! "A smile suddenly appeared on Kabrin's face, and his hearty voice made the faces of the generals behind him suddenly realize the expression
"His eyes are like a torch. Although the enemy is cunning, it is actually extremely stupid!" A general of the Eastern Frontier echoed.
"If there are 30,000 troops, why use only 10,000 troops and put 20,000 troops idle and spread them~IndoMTL.com~ How can this completely illogical thing happen? Just as Master Kabrin said , The other party is trying to cover up, it is too much to cover up!" Another middle-aged general Eero said with a self-righteous mouth, "unless the other party thinks that only 10,000 people are enough to attack us, and the remaining 20,000 people are here. This is just waiting for something, or the other party thinks that I will wait and pursue it later. Unexpectedly, we will stop and gather the main force, so it’s hard to say if we waited here all night for nothing!" "After Master Ah Yeli said this, still There is such a possibility. The other party is so cunning that he still wants to ambush us! I just don’t know if the rain last night was so good. It’s really a poor group of guys. "The other generals made a roar of laughter. "But in case, the other party is not here to ambush? Or, the other party's prey is not us!" Inside the general's attendant, a handsome young attendant hesitated and said.
"Ritang, as an attendant officer, do you know how rude it is now? What is the prey is not us, besides us, is there a bigger target nearby that can be called the prey? As an attendant officer? The general's face changed a bit, and he glared at his attendant, but he didn't even notice. As he said this, the surrounding air suddenly paused, and the generals were still laughing. Inside, someone's face has changed." The scout sent orders and immediately sent someone to Rutiazibao! "The smile on Kabrin's face disappeared, and he commanded loudly with almost blood red eyes. There is indeed a bigger target nearby that can be called prey than the eastern frontier army, and that is the emperor!
