Roston City, West Coast

The lights shone on the faces of the people in the hall, and everyone looked nervous or serious. ┏Ⅹ④③⑨⑨┛Almost no one was talking, but they were silent there. There was a rough topographic map on the conference table in the middle of the hall. The raindrops were like a rush of drums, and the muffled thunder rolled across the sky. Hundreds of Fazer nobles wearing lightweight armors are waiting, and the footsteps of the passage outside the hall approach from far away

"Wow" as the door was violently pulled open from the outside, everyone stood up with just one stroke,

In the eyes of everyone, a young nobleman with a cold look and Faze walked in from the door, wearing a short leather armor, and firmly tied the armor jacket. The first thing to do when entering the hall was to show everyone He smiled at the corner of his mouth and held up a reply letter in his hand. "The most cutting-edge troops of the Northern Army are not fifty miles away from us, but only twenty miles away. Although the people we sent have spared the detours, they only found them. This is the North Grand Duke Lu Gengdi’s reply has dispatched 10,000 troops outside the city. As long as we open the city gate, we can rush in and wipe out the efforts of those humble slaves, and return this world to our nobles again.”

"Really!"

"Haha, God has eyes!"

"What are you waiting for, let's do it, let the whole continent know that my Fazer blood is still alive, and Prince Albert has restored the capital of Fazer, which is the time for my generation to rejuvenate Fazer. Ah" All kinds of excitement voices one after another, the electric light outside flickered, illuminating the cold light of the sword below, rows of weapons were placed on both sides of the hall, and the sharp knight swords and Fei Ze heavy guns were spread flat on the table at the door. With the sign of the double-headed eagle at the position of the bow and handshake, the excited Fazer nobles began to clamor. Their goal is the city gate. The guards in the city are actually only about 2,000 people. If they can gather a hundred people for a full blow, It’s not a problem to seize the city gate suddenly

"Then follow our pre-planned plan, everyone start to act, Fei Ze will always remember today, will remember you all!"

A Fei Ze nobleman who was obviously the head stood up. His slightly dark face had a knife mark cut from the bridge of the nose to the chin, which made his appearance look more hideous. He wore a front Fei Ze ban. The military uniform of the generals of the Guards is not the kind of reserve service, but the characters of the generals of the Guards who actually serve.

Seeing him stand up, the other Fazer nobles are all quiet

If anyone knows him, they will make a surprised sound, because this is a general of the former Fezer Janissary who has been notified of his death. In the great decisive battle, this person was a general of the Imperial Guards. The body was not found after the war, so he was habitually identified as dead. However, there were too many people who did not find a complete body at that time. Under the indiscriminate bombing of the Thunder God of the Hundred Gates Empire, 200,000 King Fazer's army was crushed, more than 80,000 people were killed and wounded, surrendered and 100,000 captured, and the remaining nearly 20,000 people were reported missing.

The reason is that no corpse can be found

The Fazer Guards general had his face cut by shrapnel in the explosion. Most of his body was bruised. He was picked up from the dead by one of his loyal attendants, because at the time The situation was really messed up. The 200,000 army was crushed, and soldiers were scattered everywhere. The attendants could only put him into the dead, and waited until dark before he was rescued again. Naturally, the general of the Imperial Guard Was also considered dead,

Twenty miles outside the city of Roston, on a dilapidated village, the flag of the Northland Noble Army is flying above it. After breaking the barrier of New Lantea, the Northland Noble Army has flooded into the west coast area. Looking around in the air, you can see the west coast line close to the capital of Fazer, among countless gullies, but where there are villages, there is a plume of smoke rising for a long time. On the road, from time to time, the attendants and cavalry of the Hokuriku nobles exchanged each other. Behind every horse, there are a large number of staggered slaves. In the fields like golden wheat, there are headless corpses and wild dogs that bite the corpses. The black spots in the sky that can't go around are the black crows that are pecking. Group

The battle of New Lantea has exhausted the final force of the reclamation team. In addition to tens of thousands of people killed in the battle, it also affected the greater critical area that was looted and slaughtered by the Northland nobles. It was only a short time. In three days, more than 40,000 Fazerites have been looted and turned into slaves. In the case of the collapse of the whole line, even the urban areas are closed tightly, and the Northland noble army is allowed to shout looting outside the city. The fiasco of New Lantea gave the greatest shock to the entire west coast line of defense. On the west coast where the gate was open, the Hokuriku noble army rolled in, the endless army, and the armor of the blades shone coldly in the rain.

Under the banner of the Hokuriku Noble Army, which was wetted by the wind and rain, the hand of Duke Geng Di with the iron armored hand was holding the reins of the war horse tightly. For the first time, the old face showed a bit of arrogance. Most of the things thrown by the Ze royal family have been taken back. Especially as the war progressed smoothly, other areas of Faze have begun to move. Although they have not blatantly stood on the Hokuriku side, they have secretly contacted several times.

As a large number of materials and funds from various regions are sent over and secretly from various channels, the morale of the Hokuriku aristocratic army is even higher, and the rumored rich West Coast is already close at hand, but these are the cities and towns in the outlying areas. , Have far surpassed the so-called large camps of the reclamation groups in the royal capital area. Now the entire west coast is like a peeled egg, the whitest and tenderest placed in front of the Hokuriku noble army

The empire is already in the West Coast region. Not only has the hearts and minds floated, but the former Fazer nobles kept telling themselves about the reality of the empire. Just an hour ago, the Fazer noble representatives in the city of Roston found the noble army. , Said that it could assist the army to open the city gates. The situation is already like this. What else did the empire use to contend with itself? Even the more than 100,000 imperial reclamation groups were defeated by itself, and more than 10,000 imperial defenders were facing the general trend of Fezer's revival It's a joke that the praying man's arm blocks the car.

"Go forward, speed up if you want to get rich"

The voices of the Hokuriku nobles joking and laughing are a bit tired, but they are even more energetic, going forward, forward, westward! On the winding road, the Hokuriku noble army, who can't see the end at a glance, is heading west. The flag is flying like the sea, the sword is like snow, and the spear is like the cloud.

The army went all the way south from the Fezer King’s capital area and defeated more than one hundred thousand imperial reclamation regiments. Although they have always been victorious, the soldiers are also humans. They fight continuously and coincide with the rainy season. The Hokuriku noble army is exhausted. Obviously, but at this point, even if Grand Duke Gengdi ordered the army to repair, who would stop? Whoever stops, means that you can only watch other people divide the huge dividends of this war. Tens of millions of fortunes are ahead, which is a shot in the heart for anyone

The main force of the emperor’s army was trapped in Kalisu and was unable to return to the army. The main force of the so-called Reclamation Army was defeated by himself in the first battle in New Lantea. The most affluent coastal area on the west coast is in front. It is said that there are as many as six ports with a daily trading quota of more than 500,000 Imperial Gold, not to mention that the large quantities of goods shipped from the north by the Empire are now stagnant at the port location due to the outbreak of this war. It is estimated that at least nearly 10 million Imperial Gold’s goods are trapped on the west coast. Such a large amount of wealth, I have never thought about it before, but now, it is a distance that can be reached by just reaching out

How can the hearts of the people not be hot? As long as you continue to move forward, the wealth will become their own for three or four days at the earliest, and five or six days at the latest. Some Northland nobles will speak loudly about the empire on horseback. A joke, that is, the voice of the cavalry was deliberately stunned, arousing cheers from the noble army from time to time

Such an exciting situation occurred in Fei Ze’s centuries-old kingdom history, that is, when Fei Ze Jun broke into the Northland Plateau, and with lightning speed, destroyed the Kingdom of Astai in one fell swoop. And more than a hundred years later, such a scene reappeared on Fazer’s land. It turned out to be the Hokuriku noble army going south from the Hokuriku Plateau in the opposite direction. It is ironic to say it

"Hua Hu Hu"

The sound of rain hitting the armor is like a summer wind blowing through dense leaves. In the hills in front of Roston City, groups of Fazer Northland nobles emerged from the rain curtain, and they began to stop entering. Stepping, preparing the team in the rain, rows of towering spears suddenly popped out of a large forest in the rain, and the outline of the city of Roston in the heavy rain was completely exposed to the tens of thousands of Fazer Northland. In front of the Noble Army

"Clang clang!" The city also found the Hokuriku noble army approaching, and the dense sound of alarm bells rang from a distance from the rain curtain,

"Esta, I really can’t figure out why we should care about the help of these former royal nobles, we are the forward army, we should be the sharpest spears and guns in the army, why should we take care of these things, Whether these former royal nobles are dead or alive has anything to do with us, do we still want to occupy the west coast for a long time!"

This young nobleman of Fezer, who is riding on a majestic war horse, wearing snow-white carved armor and holding a golden gun flag high in his hands, looks forward, and his slightly mean mouth is very depressed. Said to the other companion next to him, that he was full of grievances by the temporary order to change direction. This young nobleman is Viscount Bai Feng, the commander in charge of the forward of the Hokuriku Noble Army. The object he is complaining about is a flax next to him. Young aristocrat with dark hair

"It’s not that your performance in New Lantea is too eye-catching. You killed more than 6,000 prisoners in one go, reducing the benefits of the major families on slaves. Now the revenge is coming, but why even me? Be implicated!" The young nobleman named Esta next to him turned his face and said with a disdainful expression. He is Viscount Esta, serving as the deputy of Viscount Bai Feng

The two are quite famous among the Northland nobles, and both have been trained in the Fezer Border Guard. The Baifeng Army under their command is ranked in the top three among the dozens of Northland nobles. Fighting power, precisely because of such capital, under the combination of the two, the offensive is also invincible. The two firmly believe that they should be the first Hokuriku nobles to rush to the west coast. Naturally, they can also be ahead of others. The fat and oily coast has been scraped, but unfortunately many people in the Hokuriku noble army have this idea. How can they sit and watch them get the most benefit

"Considering that the Fazer nobles on the west coast are still needed to provide us with information, the inside should be integrated with the outside. Although the small city in front of us will not be delayed for long, it can gain the trust of the Fazer nobles on the west coast. Let’s go!" In a short meeting, the Hokuriku nobles passed the decision to let them rescue Roston City by an absolute majority.

"Send a signal. Didn't it say that the gate will be opened for us, but it's a small town with less than two thousand troops. Let's solve it soon!" Esta said to Viscount Bai Feng, one soon. The arrow shot from the direction of the Northland Noble Army to a distance. This arrow was the signal agreed upon by both parties. Near the city gate in the city, more than a hundred Faze nobles with long white cloth strips on their heads took advantage of the city. The guards raided the gate of the city in panic

The city guard soldiers near the city gate only arranged less than twenty people, and the other troops were all transferred to the city wall. Watching the nobles of Fazer, who was in charge of the location of the city gate, resisted desperately. , Shouting "guard the gate" but the guard soldiers under his command were scared and scattered

The guard army in the city has long been transferred away. They were only recruited temporarily, and they did not have the ability to fight. The officer who fought alone was hacked to death. The Fazer nobles rushed to the city gate and joined forces behind the gate card. The big log was put down and clicked, the heavy gate opened like this, and the sight of the gate army was like a forest.

"The city gate is open? The city gate is open!"

The Fazer nobles cheered and excited, and even some Fazer nobles who were still rushing here stopped. It was too easy. I thought there would be a tragic fight. Hundreds of people were able to survive twenty to thirty people in the end. They even made several decisive plans. If necessary, even use corpses to block the gates. Don’t let the city gates close, but I didn’t expect the defense to be unexpected. So loose

"Very good. It seems that the Fazer nobles in the city are not all waste. We can save some energy." Looking at the completely open city gate in the distance, the corner of Viscount Bai Feng's mouth turned slightly upwards, he lifted himself up. Right hand, then pointed to the front abruptly, and loudly ordered "The whole army press on, give me this city within an hour"

"Go forward!" The Hokuriku noble army outside the city made a sound of overwhelming mountains and seas, and the infantry formations were pressed up like a wave, tens of thousands of feet slammed into the mud on the ground.

"Ankaiya, the cleaning is up to you." Viscount Bai Feng stretched out,

"My lord, for the untouchables in the city..." the subordinate asked

"If there is resistance, kill it on the spot, and leave the rest to the nobles to deal with." The city couldn’t bring any interest to him. He directly handed it over to one of his subordinates. The so-called clean-up work is naturally to clean up the city in front of him, and also not to knock anything from these West Coast nobles. Welfare, otherwise, how can you be worthy of the hardships of running over in the rain

"Yes, the subordinate understands" the subordinate nodded in response, ready to ride away

At this moment, a Hokuriku nobleman's ranger rushed from a distance to this side, running and pointing his finger behind him, shouting something

"What's the matter?" Viscount Bai Feng frowned slightly in his eyebrows

"It should be found that someone is running away. You also know that in this kind of city breakage, it is normal to run away in the city." As the deputy, Esta said dismissively. After a while, The voice of the rangers began to pass clearly, "West, a large number of enemies are approaching!"

"There are enemies to the west?" Viscount Bai Feng and Esta were both stunned. A large black cloud began to appear in the hilly area to the west, densely surging toward this side.

"What is that!" The sight that appeared to the west stopped everyone's footsteps, and everyone was stunned. There was the voice of the ranger struggling to yell "enemy, a large number of enemies." "

"What are you afraid of? It's not that we haven't fought, haven't the hundreds of thousands of Reclamation Army be defeated by us!" Viscount Bai Feng shouted, "But the mob, no matter how many people are, it is not our opponent! Set up the battle and wait for them. Come here!" His calmness and majesty suppressed the commotion in the audience, and all the troops marching towards the city withdrew back and waited solemnly

After half an hour

The black cloud moving to the west also stopped. It was an incalculable number of black-armored infantry, with spears erected, and a cold flash of steel, but the formation of these infantry was very scattered, and it was not a regular army at first sight. But it doesn’t seem to be the same as the Reclamation Army, but the number is indeed large~ IndoMTL.com~ It is estimated that there are at least 50,000 to 60,000 people. This still ignores the people who are blocked from behind

"What the **** is this!" Viscount Bai Feng and Esta swallowed hard. Their ten thousand army is like a small island that may be submerged at any time. How is it possible not to be nervous! After a commotion, the black infantry group suddenly began to roll over like an avalanche. The swaying voice of the mountain changed the expression of Viscount Bai Feng, "The noble must die! The noble must die!"

"Stick your feet!"

The messenger rushed back and forth and shouted, with rows of spears pointing forward, bending over to meet the enemy. The officers yelled at the ears of the soldiers, "Don't be afraid of them, a group of mobs will collapse as long as you kill a group." The obedient Hokuri noble soldiers nailed their feet firmly to the ground and held them tightly. With the spear, everyone's hearts were pounding wildly. The front row soldiers’ teeth involuntarily made a "cuckling" clashing sound, their face turned pale, and there were so many people on the opposite side that it was like a tide. There was no end in sight. What do you mean by killing a batch? Come and try it.

"It's a fate, all are untouchables!" As it became clearer and clearer, the slave tattoos on the faces of these black armored infantry were reflected in the eyes of the Hokuriku noble army, and the black armored soldiers on the opposite side were in disbelief. The high speed is approaching! With every blink, get closer! As you can see, the dense knives and guns, the hideous faces, are coming densely and turbulently!
