Dark night, in the late summer wind blowing in, it clearly smelled of scorching, a heat wave rolled in, and the sky was completely stained with red, like a huge red curtain covering the top of the head. , It’s already one or two o’clock in the evening from the emperor’s camp to the outskirts of Ellensburg.

"My lord, it has been confirmed that there are indeed noble soldiers fighting inside and outside Ellensburg. Because the road is blocked, the internal situation of Ellensburg cannot be known." An imperial scout halted the horse in front of Lytle. The burning fire light shone on the scout's body, it looked like it was stained with a layer of blood, this is the periphery of Ellensburg,

"Okay, I get it!" Lighter took a deep breath and glanced over. Even if the scene in front of him was not confirmed by the scout, he could be sure that what Gendrina was telling was the truth, because in front of him A piece of light with a full range of twenty or thirty miles, almost completely enveloped the area ahead. These are burning houses, towns, and such a huge spreading area, even Lytle’s pupils couldn’t help but shrink. Click

Red Maple City!

When Wright was still a passionate young man, I heard people say Ellensburg, but what really made Wright on Ellensburg was not the fact that Ellensburg was never conquered. The name of the fortified wall is the Red Maple City, which is centered on the lake where Ellensburg is located, and extends to the surrounding area. Ellensburg has been a neutral area for hundreds of years, even if it is an outbreak among the Northland nobles. Struggle rarely affects Ellensburg. Under the Randolph family’s peace policy, Ellensburg not only has high barriers, beautiful scenery, but also a range of twenty to thirty miles. A huge peripheral urban area. This huge urban area has a population of more than 300,000 and is the economic and cultural center of the entire Hokuriku

This is all the credit of the Randolph family, the controller of Ellensburg. The ancestors of the Randolph family were ordered to **** the Hokuriku princess back to Ellensburg. Later, she was ordered to stay as the tomb-watcher. Wang Ling cannot have more than three thousand armaments, and the successors of the Randolph family devote all their wealth and energy to the development of urban construction

Especially, in order to commemorate his deceased daughter, Randolph Paula Tam of the third generation of the family ordered that all around the lake be planted with his daughter’s favorite Hokuriku red maple, this Hokuriku red maple and other red maples on the mainland It's almost the same, but because of the special geographical climate of Hokuriku, the height of Hokuriku Red Maple is much shorter than normal red maple trees, only more than three meters. If the nearby houses are high enough, you can easily touch the red flames as soon as you open the glass. Maple leaves, and in autumn, when the wind wafting from the lake blew through these large red maple forests, the red sea-like waves are heavy, and there are more than twenty miles in the huge red maple forest. The town is a shocking experience for any traveler who comes to Ellensburg.

Letter, when he was young, once imagined that one day he would be able to go to Ellensburg in the Northland of Fezer to take a look at the beautiful lake and red maple. He didn’t expect it, he just thought The possibility of a fantasy is realized at this moment, but the scene in front of us is really not beautiful, the town is burning, people are fleeing everywhere, and the destructive power of war is fully reflected here.

"The Molina family has taken refuge in the empire and has been executed!"

"All those who take refuge in the empire will be killed!"

"Any resident dares to harbor empires, and is guilty of treason and kill!"

"Any resident who dared to assist Ciary’s house, refused to open the door to accept the search, is guilty of treason, kill!" Soldiers from both factions rushed into the street. Although Ellensburg was the center of the war between the two sides, Ellensburg The total area is that big, and the nobles not only stayed in Ellensburg alone, some also brought a large number of entourages

Therefore, there are only seven or eight thousand people in Ellensburg, and the other 10,000-strong nobles are stationed in urban areas. When the turmoil broke out, the commanders of both sides were almost at the same time from Ellen. According to the order from Fort, the soldiers from both sides who received the order directly used Red Maple City as the battlefield, but this war quickly turned into a chaotic battle

Already said that he would not intervene in the fighting on both sides. The local administrative officer who quietly ran out of Ellensburg was dragged out of the house by the rioting soldiers and killed his parents, wife, son, and 35 relatives in front of him. In the end, he broke his back with a heavy hammer and did not die. The soldiers became impatient and trampled him alive with horseshoes. Fifty-one members of the Red Maple City Sheriff’s family were locked into their homes and then chaotic. The army set the fire, and the soldiers of the noble army who lost their restraint have been stunned. The nobles are all in Ellensburg, and the external contact was cut off as early as the outbreak, so the two factions of soldiers in the town were completely out of control. , They saw which family was rich and had beautiful women, and they yelled, "This is the secret base of the emperor! They broke in immediately, and what followed was the screams of men and screams of women. ……,

Because the incident broke out so suddenly, many family soldiers don’t know why they are fighting and who they are fighting with? Didn’t it mean to fight against the Emperor’s Army? Why did you start a fight? Many bewildered aristocratic troops rushed into the surrounding shops and smashed through the luxuriously decorated iron fence. There was no military power to protect the Red Maple City. In the face of the sudden turmoil, it was exactly like a girl who had been torn off the fig leaf. The whole city was burning. The headless corpses were lying all over the long street that was dyed red by the fire, burning everywhere. There were burning houses everywhere, and large tracts of red maple were also scorched by the heat, set off against the red maple trees planted on the side of the street, and the hell-like scene in front of him made Lighter's brows tightened. Together,

"Oh my God! How could this happen!" It was Geng Di Ruina, who was the guide of the army, who made a cold voice. She looked at the scene in front of her with a pale face, and she couldn't believe that this was the most prosperous Hokuriku. In the Red Maple City, the hot current blows her flaxen hair, and the burning red light shines on her body, as if dyed with a layer of blood. Red Maple City, the most prosperous urban area in Hokuriku, is just a short time. After a few hours, it became the appearance before me. No matter how outstanding Geng Diruina is, after all, she is a girl who has not much experience, and has not even experienced the battlefield, how can he face the cruelty of war.

But for the emperor, the scene in front of me is acceptable. Isn’t it just a dead person? I haven’t seen it. Outside of Roston, everyone cut off more than 40,000 heads in one go. The tragedy is much more terrible than the whole thing in front of us. The black empire army is like a black line in the darkness,

The Hokuriku aristocratic army looting in the town has no idea. At this moment, tens of thousands of bloodshot eyes are looking at their figures.

"My lord, what shall we do now? In such a chaotic situation, we can't tell who is the enemy and who is the surrendered Hokuriku family." An imperial general drove the horse over, and asked Leiter with a grim expression.

"Distinguish? Why do we have to distinguish? That's all, do we still need to take care of this! Tell's voice snorted coldly, and he ordered the imperial generals behind him, "Able to slay his butchers on everyone," The Hokuriku families who surrendered or not, do not need to stay! Go down through the order and find any resisters, and the looters will kill them on the spot."

"Yes, I understand."The imperial generals nodded together with serious faces,

The dark tide is surging, the iron hoof is clanging, and the black armor is like a black ghost emerging from the periphery of the burning town

"Everyone moves forward, any resister, kill on the spot"

Following the transmission of an order, in the shadowy night, the imperial army in black armor marched into the city. The light cavalry was the fastest, the sword was out of the sheath, and the hot wind rushed in, mixing the night. The cold light swooped down, and a soldier of the Northland Noble Army who was robbing things heard the rumbling and shaking sound from behind, and turned his head curiously, like a flash of electric light and flint mountain, and the sharp imperial war knife used its horsepower. , Has been severely chopped off the shoulders of the noble soldier, puff, the noble soldier who had not had time to react was opened on the spot, and blood mixed with internal organs poured out from the incision,

"The sixth group goes to the west, and the eighth group goes to the east. The fastest update┏Ⅹ④③⑨⑨┛..."

Tens of thousands of imperial armies rushed into this flame-burning battlefield, and the iron torrent of black armor moved forward unstoppably. There were no standing enemies behind them. The Hokuriku noble army did not expect the emperor at all. The team will kill people, they are still plundering property in the city, looting and raging in groups of three or five, and the entire command system is completely paralyzed. When they find the influx of the imperial army in front of them, they are still in the north of the city. The Lu aristocratic army was completely scattered. Seeing the imperial army rushing like a black tide, some panicked to take weapons, some crawled in embarrassment, and more people just turned around and ran away.

Amidst this chaos, an imperial cavalry galloped directly towards the stone bridge connecting Ellensburg, and in the direction of the stone bridge, hundreds of soldiers wearing Ciari’s armor were waiting. , A sharp spear blocked the bridge deck, and a middle-aged general in heavy armor stood in front, squinting, staring at the burning town in the distance

From the beginning of the turmoil, the Ciara family quickly cut off the only stone bridge, and at the expense of the entire Red Maple City, dragged down the forces of other families. The families in Ellensburg are afraid that they will be killed. It never occurred to them that the Ciali family would sacrifice the entire Red Maple City to hold their army, and while they were desperately looking forward to rescue, their army was raging in Red Maple City

"My lord, such a Red Maple City, just like this... Isn’t it a pity?" Some people expressed regret to the general who led the team. The wealth of Red Maple City is well-known throughout Beilu. Otherwise, it will not cause chaos and looting from other nobles, and they just look at it like this, and their hearts are itchy

"Tell everyone to cheer up, don't be tempted by the little profit in front of you, as long as you can take control of Ellensburg, just a century of wealth of the Randolph family is enough to be worth a red maple city. Besides, as long as the Patriarch of these families is in hand, it is not up to us to say how much ransom you want. What they eat in Red Maple City will not be ours in the end. When the Patriarch's reward is given, your benefit will be indispensable!"

Just as the general’s voice fell, a row of black shadows penetrated the town area in front, and the faint rumbling sound, like a sea wave rolling, became louder and louder, and the voice expanded into a muffled thunder. The ground rolls over, and it feels like standing indefinitely for a while

"Riding... Cavalry!"

Some soldiers yelled in horror, before they had time to see the true face of the shadow, rows of cold black armor, dark red reflected by the flames on both sides of the street, like rows of leaps and slaps on the coast The imperial cavalry rushed in like the wind, and the noble soldiers of the Ciyali family were hit and squeezed. On the narrow bridge, bright red human blood spattered from the galloping horses. The unconscious soldiers only felt a flower in front of them. The imperial swords had already slashed through their infantry armor with a sharp edge. The sound of tearing was mixed in the impact of metal and flesh and blood, and almost directly rushed onto the bridge. The mouth, flesh and blood fly, and the sound of horseshoes conceal all the sounds between heaven and earth

Blood waves are coming~IndoMTL.com~No one thought that the other party would directly hit the narrow bridge with a war horse, and the short hair of the general of the Ciyali family was erected like a stubble. Although he was astonished, he reacted quickly. The epee in his hand slashed with his violent force. An imperial horse was smashed into the front with a sword. The imperial cavalry above was thrown into the lake next to him. The well-known fierce general of the Ciali family, a great knight commander known for his stubborn temper and arrogance, after a brief blockade, shouted, "Everyone, don't leave, even if you die, you must die on the bridge"

"Qiaokou is attacked, send a signal, we need reinforcements!" At the same time, he shouted to a messenger archer behind him. The archer immediately drew out an arrow cluster and wrapped the front end with tarpaulin and placed it on the torch. Ignite it, lift it up obliquely towards the distance, loosen the bowstring, and a little red line flies out. The sights a hundred meters away follow the red line quickly. I saw a team of armored knights like ants in the direction of the town. The swarms swarmed in, unable to see the quantity, like a cold light projected down, I don’t know how many armored knights followed, the fire was raging, and the murderous intent vacated. The goals of both sides were focused on this stone bridge at this moment.

"Dismount, all march forward!" Because the stone bridge entrance was too narrow, the cavalry who rushed in had torn open but could not make any further progress. The emperor led the team and ordered the whole team to dismount. , Picked up the cavalry shields and swords of the war horses and rushed up, like a bloodthirsty beast, crushing all the living creatures in front of them.
