The sun still looked hot. The morning was about to pass, and the field began to blow hot. Listening to the late summer thunder from the north, Lytle stretched out a lazy waist and came outside the military tent. The north side stretched out. The waves of the hills and rivers that went to shimmered, the flying birds gradually turned into white spots, and it was quiet. But just two days ago, the last hope of the Fazer royal family was annihilated here, and the army of Prince Albert was completely wiped out here. The purple hero flower with blood soaking seems to grow more luxuriantly, and the purple is permeated.
"My lord, from the morning, the eyes of the Hokuriku people outside the camp were all taken away." The adjutant came up with a weird face and whispered to report
"Added three patrols, released the scouts to pay attention to the 20-mile range of the camp, and ignored the others. "Letter, who knew what was going on, did not show surprise. After a moment of silence, he waved his hand flatly. Asked, "How is the situation in the army? Is anyone dissatisfied with the sudden order of repairs?"
"No one expresses dissatisfaction, but now everyone says that adults are like soldiers. Everyone is coming all the way from the west coast, and you can finally catch your breath!" The adjutant said seriously,
Lighter took a deep breath of air with a stupefied face, and his piercing eyes flashed a stupefaction. He was not familiar with innocent worries, but suddenly ordered the entire army to be repaired. This is a strong impact on killing Northland in one fell swoop. Destroying the Prince Albert’s army, looking at the 100,000 army of the empire, which is no longer invincible in the entire Northland, is definitely like a blow.
The adjutant seemed to have guessed Wright’s concern, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "My lord, don’t forget, we marched day and night from the city of Roston on the west coast across the entire Fazer capital area. Even if it’s a regular imperial army, I’m afraid It’s a bit too much, not to mention that our temporary recruiting team, if it weren’t for the bounty given this time, would have only chopped more than 40,000 heads outside of Roston, it’s not enough, I’m afraid it’s halfway. Some people will complain. Now that everyone has killed more than 20,000 heads, what are you waiting for without taking a rest?"
"Ah, is that right?"
Hearing the adjutant’s words, the boss with an open mouth was indeed a little scared in his heart. He was blinded by the victory of Roston City, and he had forgotten the emperor in front of him. It was not in the formal sense. The regular army of the Empire is a temporary force. Except for the more than ten thousand former Nord elites who are really capable of fighting, they belong to the backbone of the war. The other seventy or eighty thousand people are not the former Fei Ze Slaves are caravan mercenaries who were attracted by the bounty. In the battle outside Roston, more than 40,000 heads of the Northland Noble Army were beheaded completely by a single blow, and then they followed the Northland Remnant Army all the way. To the north, before I had time to catch my breath, I entered the mountain pass and fought fiercely with the elite Abit army
After the two battles, although both were victorious, the 100,000 Emperor ** team suffered heavy casualties, more than 10,000 battle losses, and four to five thousand wounded soldiers, even if the morale was as good as before. Hong, now it’s time to fall back. In this case, if you change to yourself, you will hear the order of dressing instead of the order to move forward. It’s not bad if you don’t cheer. Who will take care of it? What is the reason? I didn't expect it, Estante undoubtedly saw it in his eyes, then. Add to favorites┏Ⅹ④③⑨⑨┛. . . . . Thinking of the report received this morning, Lighter looked excited and asked the adjutant, where is Estante now
"Lord Estante was resting when his subordinates came just now"
"Really, go find Estante, no, let me go." Leiter left his military tent, a few minutes, came to Estante’s military tent, and saw that the curtain of the military tent was opened. Now, I can see that Estante is standing in front of the Northern Land Map and looking at something. Sure enough, Estante did this thing!
Letter walked in with an excited look, stretched out his hand and patted Estante, who was staring at the map intently, and let the Xi Ting army bypass Geng Di's house. It was too clever. I believe it. At this moment, the Geng Di family has been regarded as a traitor by the whole Beilu. How did you come up with this method?"
Estante looked up in a stunned look. He looked up and saw that it was Lighter, his face was startled. "Isn't it an order sent by the adults to the Xiting Army for the Xiting Army to bypass Geng Di's house?"
"What else needs to be pretended between the two of us. If you didn't let the Xiting Army bypass Geng Di’s house, how could the Xi Ting Army not commit any crimes against Geng Di’s house, but would flow the blood of other northern forces into a river?" With a smile on Leiter's face, does this Estant even hide from himself? Then Lighter saw Estante’s face on the opposite side changed.
"Is it... really not your order?" Lighter's smile froze on the corners of his mouth. From Estante's face that didn't look like a disguise, he seemed to feel something
"I can say with certainty that I did not give such an order to the Xiting Army!" Estante took a deep breath, shrugged his shoulders with embarrassment, and said to the stunned Lighter, "You did not hear me wrong. , And in my capacity, the Xi Ting Army will not listen to me! You know, the Xi Ting Army is directly under the emperor’s army. Although it is part of the Emperor’s Army, it never belongs to the Ministry of Imperial Affairs. It is the emperor’s private army. Do you think that I, a district leader, can order the emperor’s private army? But it is a fact that the Xiting Army did not attack Geng Di’s house. If there is no order, how could the Xiting Army have the largest piece of Geng Di’s house? Is not tempted by his fat"
" Therefore, there is only one possibility. Only the emperor can let the Xiting army not move Geng Di’s house. In other words, the emperor’s greatest possibility is that he has already reached the west coast. Otherwise, it is impossible to deal with the West in such a short period of time. As the court army moved south to make adjustments, "Estante raised his head and looked at the purple meadow full of the earth, with a touch of bitterness at the corner of his mouth. Everything that has been shown since the culling of the 60,000 noble army outside Roston The expression in his grasp revealed a deep sense of frustration. At the beginning, Nord was defeated. Although Estante finally surrendered to the empire, he was not convinced from the bottom of his heart, but at this moment, he was indeed deeply affected. Deep blow
Hearing Estante's guess, Lighter also trembled slightly. That's right, no one except the emperor can instruct the Xi Ting army! Although it is Hokuriku, it is actually only three or four hundred miles away from the west coast. According to the speed of the emperor's pigeons, one day and one night can go back and forth. The emperor has either arrived on the west coast early, or is already on the west coast!
"Then what shall we do now?" Lighter's voice was trembling.
"If it is really the emperor's order, then it will be interesting!" Estante's mouth suddenly smiled, but this smile gave people a strong feeling of wind and rain.
Letter was silent. He was actually a little frightened. As a pure Southern European, he knew more carefully about this War of the Northland, and it was even more shocking. The Northland Nobles In two months, several major forces in the south suddenly took action, and the combined forces used exceeded one hundred. Wan, it involves half of the southern European Baro region. In the blink of an eye, the southern European Baro is full of war clouds. Even the mighty Northern Falcon Empire suddenly faces the counterattack of the entire southern group, I am afraid it will be messy
A little carelessness will result in a disastrous defeat in the Second North-South War. All the southern dividends earned in the previous two years will be spit out. The empire’s thriving national power will also be suspended. I don’t know how many pairs of eyes. Staring fiercely at this land, staring at what the empire would do, is to completely lose the power of Southern Europe, and to be unable to go south in 20 years, or to slap the opponent backhand from the absolute contrarian with an amazing strategy.
At this moment, the emperor is secretly settled on the west coast. Just thinking about the meaning inside is enough to make people feel overwhelmed. In the First North-South War, the emperor used one man to fight the entire south and kill with inferior force. The heads of people in the south are rolling, which can be said to cast a psychological shadow on the entire south, and this time the North-South war, the emperor's start with the Northland war, what mystery does it contain?
"In fact, don't be too nervous, just pay close attention to it"
Estante seemed to have gotten used to it. He said to the dazed Lighter, stretched a long waist, walked to the army stall on the ground, and sat down. "You don’t know the emperor." In fact, I am very curious. At least as far as I know, the Hokuriku nobles are now gathered in Ellensburg, and they have 20,000 troops on the bright side. Ellensburg is located in the Great Lake. There is only one road that can pass through. Even if it is a large number of troops, no more than 5,000 people can be deployed at one time. The reason why the emperor suddenly let go of Geng Di's house, what is it, let it go The Geng Di family, who has no more power, can certainly cause cracks to appear in the iron-steel Hokuri nobles, but it is only so, it is difficult to make the Hokuk nobles collapse, I am afraid it is a little bit difficult!"
Leiter left Estante’s camp and looked at the dense purple heroic flowers spreading over the ground, but his heart was still hard to calm down, or Estante was right. The emperor’s methods were not normal and predictable, since If you are a chess piece, you should have the consciousness of being a chess piece. Half of the three days have passed. Since there is no new order, we will stay here and watch to see if the Xi Ting army can break through the complete destruction on the last day. Ellensburg of the solution!
For Ellensburg, Lighter has also studied it. Even with his rich experience, he finally thought that this strong fortress surrounded by water on all sides of the lake was perfect enough to have no shortcomings. Six surrounding the main fort The corner fort, the fortress wall with a height of forty meters, and the trebuchets set up high above, can throw the slings at any corner of Ellensburg. If someone assaults them, these slings will make the assailants pay. The tragic price was almost the only road that was blocked, and no matter which direction the assailants attacked from, they could not avoid the blow from the heights. In the end, the only way that Lytle could think of was to bring the Imperial Navy warships. Drive into the lake and use Thor on the battleship to directly tear open the defenses of Ellensburg,
But the problem is that it’s impossible. The Imperial Navy warships cannot be driven in. It is a lake that converges from the snow melting and flowing water from the northern mountains. It is not connected to other waterway systems at all, even if the Imperial Infantry Group wants it. To break through this strong fortress, I am afraid that it will take a considerable amount of time and strength, not to mention that the Xiting Army is not good at attacking cities!
Fort Molina,
The blood line is spreading. The water of the White River, the moat outside the entire castle, was dyed crimson, and arrows with flames in the sky kept passing by. In the dim light on the river, the corpse stretched away, and a Hokuriku soldier with a weapon in his hand staggered up from a pool of blood. Just ten meters away, the Cavalry of Dowei was like another parallel to Shirakawa. The torrents, screaming and killing, countless canine teeth fighting on both sides of the river, the flames burned the woods, and the wind roared, the horses stopped densely in front of the raised soil slope, giving people an indescribable deterrent, and the huge flag was in the dim sky. The middle is still blowing in the wind, and the suspension bridge of the main castle gate in the distance is falling heavily.
Duo guard cavalry who went to explore the road rushed in frantically,
"The door, the door is open!"
With a stern cry, the black line of the brigade began to slowly accelerate forward, and the ground began to tremble under the sound of rumbling horseshoes. The line of attack of war horses thundered like a huge hug. The army was in complete chaos. Before a group of infantrymen approached the city gate, they were overwhelmed by the Dooguard cavalry who had poured into the city gate. The scimitar swung like lightning, and immediately slashed on the person's body, sprinting with the high speed of the horses. Slashed the scimitar fiercely, and the **** head flew up.
The sound of the war horse crashing into the crowd~IndoMTL.com~ suddenly rolled into a **** color, and brought up blood stains soaring to the sky. The head of Dou Da was smashed into the air by the arc of the war knife, and the war horse thundered. Sweeping, the black cavalry armor bathed in blood, the sharp scimitars of the guards moved forward like a wave, and the melee cavalry swooped at the gate like a huge fan, like a huge dark cloud covering the direction ahead. , There is also a Qingqi wearing only leather armor, crazy speeding in.
"Don't fight, we surrendered!" Above the battlement there was a crying father and mother, no matter how to stop it, the situation has collapsed, and Fort Molina, which has a large amount of grain storage, has fallen. This time, the Xiting Army was surprised. Accepted the surrender
The second day was definitely the most difficult day for all the people gathered in Ellensburg. With the lessons learned from the first day, all families in Hokuriku have paid close attention to the situation in their territories. With news flying in like snow flakes, Ellensburg exploded again
"Why, why did the enemy accept the surrender of Fort Molina?" A young head of the family angrily pressed the received report on the table, and immediately a head of the family rushed over and grabbed him. The collar, shouted, "What do you mean, is it that your Cule family was slaughtered, and my Molina’s house will also be slaughtered? And not only me, Fort Molina, but also the city of Echel, fly Tangu’s surrender was also accepted, why don’t you talk about them!"
