Power and Empire Chapter 3465: Confrontation (3)

In the rain and fog, the screams of people who were dying were dull, and when they were heard in the ears, they seemed a little unreal. The rain finally broke down part of the city walls of New Lantea, and the rain added layers of rain and fog. , Gleaming with the cold light of the weapons of the Hokuriku noble army entering the forest, and let people have a sense of time and space that has lost the real sense of time. Everyone around them seems to be shouting at this moment. As the earth wall collapses, new The city of Lantea was finally completely exposed to the Hokuriku Noble Army. A large number of siege equipment from the Hokuriku Noble Army swarmed under the cover of the infantry group in the queue.

Last night, the Noble Army killed 16 slack officers in one fell swoop, and offered a reward of 10,000 imperial gold for whoever attacked the earth wall first, and immediately let the Noble Army who were still drowsy. It's like a chicken blood. It's not just a three-meter-high soil wall. I really think that everyone can't climb it. A river course that is more than ten meters wide will not be much larger than a small river in front of a real full-line army. The battle is often the most tragic confrontation. The reason why the results have not been achieved in the previous few days is entirely because who is willing to do nothing good. Now that such a lot of money is placed on the top, everyone is naturally vying for the first place, not to mention the siege equipment. Join, don’t say it’s just a small wall in front of you, even a real stone fortress can be beaten down

"Go forward!" All the Northern Army officers looked excited, urging their subordinate soldiers to move forward like a sea tide, following the rows of armored Northern Army nobles stepping into waist-deep without hesitation. In the river water, the earth wall on the opposite side also echoed one after another.

"Attention, the enemy is coming up!"

"Stay steady, everyone, nothing terrible!"

"The whole line of guns? (ˉ?ˉ?)"

The rows of stabbing guns were all put down. Under the heavy rain, the two sides added up to nearly 100,000 pairs of eyes to watch, the hand holding the weapon was slightly white because of excessive force, and the heavy rain poured down. , The rain hit the armors of the soldiers on both sides, exploding like white flowers, only a shout was heard, it seemed that all the depressed emotions burst out all at once,

The countless long spikes and gun battles on both sides knocked together, and suddenly a wave of blood rolled up. As the assault forward of the Hokuriku Noble Army, the soldiers almost instinctively pressed toward the crowd ahead. In the intersecting warfare, the combat power of the Hokuriku Noble Army was obviously stronger than that of the Reclamation Corps, but the stubbornness of the Reclamation Corps was on the brink It surprised the command of the Hokuriku Noble Army, and even I gave the Hokuriku nobility an illusion that it was not that they were attacking, and the earth wall in front was like a blood basin with a big mouth that plunged itself into it,

"Asshole, what does Taiya eat? If it's like this later, how can we go to the west coast!"

A Hokuriku noble was stunned as the waves of people in front were smashed on the battle line, and his pros and cons with high hopes of opportunity were also in the crushed ranks, fingers clenched with anger, these jumpsuits The untidy imperial refugees even allowed them to spend a large amount of funds to equip the Northland noble army. Every step forward was the casualties of hundreds of thousands of people. They were also surprised by the cold air in their hearts, and they were very concerned about the control of the empire. The west coast of China is even less confident. A group of ragged imperial refugees have stopped tens of thousands of troops for nearly ten days. If you really face the imperial regular army, which is known as the first weapon and equipment, how can this battle be fought?

"While the West Coast is rich, it makes people jealous, but it also has to be enjoyed by life"

"From this point of view, even if we lay down the west coast, we can't keep it." There are Hokuriku nobles whispering.

The gray-haired Grand Duke Gengdi only looked forward, and did not have the slightest expression on the muttering of the nobles behind him. He had already received the exact news that the imperial army was still in Karisu. If it were under normal circumstances, of course he It’s not so stupid to think that tens of thousands of nobles are like taking the West Coast, but now that this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is in front of him, Geng Di is really excited. As long as he breaks this earth wall in front of him, the rich West Coast is in front of him. The hand touched the side, could it be impossible to take it back, and even if it was taken back, the empire would not let the Northland nobles who had fallen into trouble. Once the empire returns to the army, it must be an all-out strangulation of Hokuriku

In the past two years, Salton on the west coast of the empire, backed by the imperial army, continued to open so-called reclamation regiments into the capital area, eroding the territory of the Northland powers step by step. In just two years, it was already. Occupying three-quarters of the royal capital, one by one is nominally a reclamation camp. In fact, it is basically gathering residential areas all over the royal capital area. Given a certain amount of time, a dozen imperial cities have risen in the royal capital area. At that time, the royal capital area will naturally be the imperial area. Once the royal capital is completely controlled by the empire, the imperial army can use the royal capital area as a support point to attack the northern land in one go. According to the combat power of the imperial army, sweeping the northern land is simply There is nothing suspenseful

There are only two roads in front of Hokuriku. One is to steal peace. After the empire completes its raid on the capital area, it is destroyed by the imperial army. The other way is to seize this opportunity and retake the king. The capital area, attacking the west coast, even if the occupation cannot be completed, the west coast area under the control of the empire will suffer severe damage. Once the west coast area is unable to supply, the reclamation groups that have penetrated into the royal capital area will naturally choose to retreat

The goal is right in front of us. How can we easily change it? As long as the main force of the empire does not return, it is completely possible to take the west coast. Grand Duke Gengdi’s old and sunken eyes flashed with coldness, and the distance was cumbersome. The siege equipment was finally turned on, and the baffles in front of several tall siege towers slammed down like a heavy hammer on the battlements. The soldiers at the mouth of the battlements had not yet figured out the situation. It was already blown out by a huge impact. Behind the baffle was the cavalry of Geng Di's family. This sudden impact of the cavalry was like a heavy hammer slamming into the crowd of guards on the opposite side, and the baffle stepped on by horseshoes issued. Overwhelmed by the sound, the rushing horses crashed into the pile of people frantically, but the defenders on the dirt wall were completely messed up in an instant, and the infantry of the noble army began to attack, the second row and the third row. Open continuously from the siege tower

"Take it!"

A smile appeared at the corner of Grand Duke Gengdi's mouth. This time he even used his most precious Gengdi cavalry. He tore a hole in the battlement with just one blow, and the unprepared imperial refugees were running in complete chaos. From the previous several shocks, Grand Duke Gengdi has already seen that the opposing command is quite messy. Many times they are fighting in their own way and each is responsible for their own defenses.

Sure enough, it is not the regular army of the empire. The experienced Grand Duke Geng Di's fatal blow by the Geng Di family cavalry has achieved a miraculous effect this time.

As a large number of infantry climbed up the dirt wall, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the city had already been captured! The gate to the west coast is open! The nobles of the Northland have their eyes shining, as if seeing a door full of wealth open in front of them. The west coast under the control of the empire has not been the same in the past two years. Not only did the population break through the most heyday in one fell swoop, Moreover, as a large amount of construction and heavy money went down, a number of sea-to-sea trading ports were established, which seem to have become the core of the trade on the western coast of South Europe. It is said that the tax collected in the west coast area reached 5 million imperial gold in just the last quarter. , Almost the same as Fei Ze’s national income in a quarter at the time. One can imagine how rich the West Coast has become.

At the moment when the Northland Aristocratic Army of New Lantea City broke through, at the junction of the huge mountain range on the coastline side of the Northland, the horseshoe nailed with thick curved horse iron was like a sharp razor to completely tear the ground. It cracked and turned into a piece of black. The wet soil was splashed and slapped mercilessly on the hard soil that has been frozen all the year round.

Wow...Wow! Countless exciting sounds, as a black line appeared on the position of the mound, the black line became larger and wider, and in this group In the ocean, a flag with meniscus and starlight was fluttering in the wind. It was a dense layer of cavalry, crowded on the land halfway up the mountainside of Aikia, and the sky was full of rain

Under the black clouds, there are almost no gaps in the rapidly rolling black clouds.

His gaze swept across the vast land ahead, Doweiyan Gao, wearing an imperial general armor, put away the map of the northern land in his hand, raised the whip in his hand, and then ordered "Bai Sa, Coroline, Zamusi However, the four tribes are responsible for sweeping eastward, and the other four follow me to the west!" The clan patriarchs who heard the order immediately divided into two directions. Behind them, the eyes of the soldiers of the Xiting Army on the 30,000 grassland were red and afraid of people.

"Bai Sa, Coroline, and Zamu Siran went east, and the others to the west." The rangers who gave orders passed by in front of the cavalry queue. The cavalry group that heard the order seemed to be dialed by a pair of invisible magic hands. Open, there is no sign of confusion,

They landed in the Northland three days ago. The huge mountain range delayed the Xiting army for three more days. They were transferred from the front line of the Kingdom of Bion by the Falcon Khan, and then plunged into this strange land across the sea. The Xiting Army is like a group of wounded wolves. While silently licking their wounds, their inner violence is also rapidly skyrocketing.

"If I still get nothing this time, I would be embarrassed to go back. It's better to die!"

"It is probably only us who was transferred from the front line of the battlefield by King Khan!" The thoughts of the Xiting Army are very clear. They are here to kill. They are the waves in the tropical storm, the floods that burst the dyke, and invade. , Sweeping forward like fire, smashing all obstacles under the horseshoe, this is the pride that is deeply infused into the blood of every Xiting grassland person. The edge of the Xiting cavalry first appeared in Yi near the north. Lan Ling, Lord Yilan rushed out of the bedroom angrily when he heard the rapid ringing of the bell from the watchtower, and then heard the attendant running over out of breath. "My lord, there is a situation, a large number of people Unidentified troops are coming here! "The voice of the attendant looked very flustered,

"Army? Ailan, are you drinking too much? This is the Yilan collar of Hokuriku. If you see a large number of troops here, then the whole Hokuriku should have fallen! Lord Yilan smiled bitterly. This attendant is extremely loyal, but he is a drunkard, and let him be a attendant because his sister is his lover.

"Attention, northwest!"

There was another horrified voice from the sentry tower. Lord Yilan reluctantly ran up to the castle's sentry tower this time, looking in the direction pointed by the sentry, the corners of his mouth solidified with disdain, and he saw a long way. The gray and dark sky seemed to condense with the large areas of black moving at high speed in the distance. The black moved extremely fast. From the beginning, a black line quickly turned into densely pulsating black spots. As the distance approaches, the black dots gradually become clear. They are cavalry in black armor. These black cavalry seem to be attached to the war horse, carrying a curved bow and quiver. Through the vast and deserted land like an arrow

"This is a cavalry?"

Lord Yilan was stunned. He never dreamed that he could see such battles in a small remote place like Yilan, and he also remembered in his mind, among the rich and powerful Hokuriku, who could have such a battle? Number of cavalry,

In his mind, he didn’t think these cavalry were enemies, because this was the Northland, and there was only one way to enter the Northland. It is impossible for any enemy to kill from the northernmost direction silently, because the huge mountains block it. Everything

It’s just that he doesn’t know that ~IndoMTL.com~ gives the Northland barrier to the large mountain range, and it is not completely without gaps. It is just remote. For grassland hunters who are good at finding roads on the grassland, they only need to follow the animals. Footprints will be able to find the way,

Just when he was stunned, the black cavalry rushing from a distance had begun to spread out line by line, and countless grassland compound bows were lifted toward the sky, and the dense queues were drawn layer by layer, as if they were in the dark. Like petals blooming under the sky, they are opened layer by layer, tacitly as if ten fingers are changing patterns, full of a strange beauty, like two huge wings from contraction to expansion,

In an instant, a flash of cold light drew countless swift white light projections in the air, spreading out his arms of death, like locusts suddenly erupting on the horizon, densely packed with layers of pressure. Above, the number of these arrow clusters is so large that they obscure the sky above the line of sight like clouds.

"What do they want to do? Lord Yilan asked in a daze. As a small inland lord, he had no idea about the archers, let alone the tactical queue of the archers. He stared blankly at the sky covering the sky. The cold light traverses the arc in the sky, and when it rises to a certain height, it is like a dark cloud above the head instantly turning into raindrops, and a metal waterfall falls from the sky.
