Martin Liya Kingdom, Wolf Xibia District, Fifteen Mile East of Stam

The sound of fighting in the distance gradually subsided. Even if a large raindrop fell, it still could not cover the black smoke rising from Stam, like a black line straight up to the sky,

The tall silver fox rides on a horse, but the black cloak behind his back is blown by the wild wind to hunt and hunt. Hundreds of Martin Litooth light cavalry, neatly clothed, are silent behind him, just quietly Waiting, it’s just that the expression on everyone’s face is no longer as relaxed as that day with a little arrogance, but the fingers of everyone holding the reins of the warhorse are pale because of excessive force, and both eyes are turned away unnaturally. Everyone desperately came back from the front line of the Order, not just to stop the invasion of the Darkside Army, but they have reached the wolf Xibia, and Stam is only fifteen miles ahead, but he has to stand still. Why?

"His Royal Highness, the surrounding soil fortress of Stam has been broken by the Darksiders, and the Darksiders are attacking the city!" A light cavalry galloped in, strangling the horse in front of the silver fox, bringing it The news stopped everyone’s breathing

"His Royal Highness!" The generals of the Ansili family looked at their young patriarch with all eyes. Because it was an emergency withdrawal from the battlefield of the sect nation, everyone could not know the current situation. They were originally prepared. He rushed directly to Stam in one breath. Even if he didn’t rescue Stam, he just showed his face and believed that the Dark Ser Army who was attacking Stam would not deploy half of his troops to guard against it. However, in an accident, Make the whole plan have to be changed

The figure of the imperial cavalry was found outside of Stamm. These light cavalry wearing black armor and holding a curved bow are very easy to recognize. Martin Liya scouts have been with such imperial scouts on the battlefield of the sect nation many times. Fight against each other, so there is no possibility of admitting mistakes. The road ahead was blocked, and the dark scout decided to change to approach Stam in a different direction. After a lap, he discovered that there were imperial cavalry in the ten-mile land centered on Stam. It is conservatively estimated that there are at least one thousand imperial cavalry scouts near the outskirts of Stam. According to the experience of Martin Riyadh in fighting in the region of the Order, the imperial regiment with thousands of scout cavalry is at least Above 50,000,

In other words, in addition to the 200,000 Dark Ser Army outside Stam, there may be a minimum number of 50,000 Imperial regiments in the dark. What is waiting for is naturally the help from my side. In the silence, there was only the sound of rain splashing on the leaves. General Ansiri said cautiously, "In case, these imperial cavalry are just suspicious soldiers.

"Impossible"

A general shook his head sternly. "We have been temporarily replaced from the battlefield of the sect nation. Nearly 100,000 main forces of the Ansili family disappeared from the battlefield of the sect nation. Such a big adjustment, if it were the previous imperial intelligence department, or maybe I didn’t notice it, but since the empire absorbed the veteran assassination organization Mount Etmund and built a new empire’s southern intelligence department specifically for this battle in June, the empire’s intelligence quality in the south has achieved a qualitative leap. I can guarantee that, We leave for two days at most, and the intelligence will be sent to the Emperor’s table!"

"Mount Etmund!"

When several generals from the Ansili family heard this name, their expressions couldn't help but change

As an assassination organization, Mount Etmund is notorious in Southern Europe. Even Martin Liya has heard of the organization's notoriety. Everyone may not be afraid of being attacked with swords and guns, but assassinations are not prevented. The very defensive approach, but everyone feels a headache. Under normal circumstances, everyone would rather face an enemy army than always beware of the assassins of Mount Etmund, because the other party is too bottom line and can do everything. At its extreme, beggars, pretending to be beggars, poisoning in food, detaining family members are all normal methods, and hiding in the pit for three days and three nights. A governor of the Harvey Kingdom was assassinated while squatting in the latrine. People always want to eat and drink Lazarus to sleep, just ask if you are afraid

"Others are afraid of Mount Etmund, we don’t need to be afraid, because the power of Mount Etmund had withdrawn from Martin Liya ten years ago. If we were not withdrawn from the Order, Etmund Mengshan couldn't even notice it!"

Hearing the name Mount Etmund, an older Ansili family snorted disdainfully, and subconsciously glanced at the back of the silver fox in front of him, and the rain hit the armor. The white splashes made the silver fox's back look so lonely. Hearing his words, the other generals immediately reacted. The old owner of Mount Este is the Erot Empire, and the Erot Empire and the sect nation are rivals. At least half of Mount Etmund’s eyes are staring at the battlefield of the sect nation, so such a huge transfer is absolutely impossible to hide the past

"Master Skerro, are you saying that there are no eyes of Mount Etmund in Martin Liya?" A younger general looked surprised.

"Yes, do you know why Martin tried to march north to the sect, and the empire was so hasty to fight, because they didn’t even know that our army would march north." The general named Scroo Ancili’s commanded it. Nodding, his eyes flashed with the light of memories. "Ten years ago, His Royal Highness and Mount Etmund made an agreement that the forces of Mount Etmund must not enter Martin Liya, otherwise, there will be no mercy."

Hearing his words, the other generals' faces couldn't help but move.

We need to know that Mount Etmund is an established organization in Southern Europe. For more than a hundred years, no one knows how big the network has been. The Assassination incident made this Mount Etmund famous, especially After Mount Etmund attached to the Erot royal family, the Erot royal family, who had always been ambitious for the hegemony of Southern Europe, strongly supported Mount Etmund. It is said that before the Erot Royal family, Mount Etmund had only six groups, but After relying on the Eero royal family, it has doubled in more than ten years. There are a total of twelve groups, each of which is aimed at a competitor of Southern Europe and Baro. How can Martin Liya be regarded as a competitive rival by the Eero royal family? No

But in fact, all signs indicate that the tentacles of Mount Etmund may not have reached Martin's teeth, otherwise Martin's force will march northward, and the empire will not be caught off guard. You know, two In the North-South War a year ago, the empire crushed the countries to death in intelligence. Not only were the countries beaten and dizzy on the battlefield, they were also **** on the intelligence front.

The Nordic Barrow Intelligence Network controlled by the empire, with the addition of its commercial network spreading across the entire Obaro, almost crushed the intelligence networks of other countries. The empire’s eyeliner of the countries has just just been in the war. When it broke out, it was raided by the Imperial Intelligence Department, and the original intelligence network fell apart, and most of the losses were lost

Therefore, although the empire only mobilized 300,000 troops in the North-South War, it was able to defeat the coalition forces of various countries, and finally seized the opportunity to directly send the Hungarian cavalry directly to the location of the coalition base camp, forcing the base camp to move south. , Causing the base camp to be out of touch with the frontline forces, and then using this gap that no one noticed, the Imperial Army made a strong cut. In Anluosu City, it shredded the 200,000 main force of the Southern Allied Forces in one fell swoop, and the northern battle of the Allied Forces collapsed. Afterwards, the blood flowed by the emperor’s army that was swept southward in the Istanbul region, 700,000 troops, not one out of ten who came back alive,

So after the North-South War, the southern countries carried out a large-scale cleanup of their own countries. All the imperial intelligence personnel who performed in the North-South War were arrested. The Imperial Intelligence Department had to abandon the newly improved Southern Intelligence Network and withdraw across the board. Personnel, this is also an important reason why the empire became almost blind to the entire southern European Baro.

"The young patriarch planned the kidnapping of the Princess of Congo, which caused a sensation throughout Obalo. In the hopeless situation of saving the royal family, the Concubine family once asked Mount Etmund to take action at a high price and said that people could not be saved. When I came back, I cleaned up the people. Naturally, the young patriarch could not let this happen." The veteran’s eyes flashed with a flash of memory, and the content of the talk made all listeners’ breathing involuntarily suppressed, Ett Mengshan, the organization that is rumored to have even the king dared to assassinate, has it really fought against the young patriarch?

"At that time, the young patriarch personally made arrangements, using Princess Gangfei as a bait, and with more than 40 lives of Ansili’s guards, he swept all the Mount Etmund who had come to assassinate, and finally captured Etmund. There were eleven members of the mountain group, all of whom were executed by the young chief. Because of this, Mount Etmund issued a lore to Silver Fox, but after several assassinations, His Royal Highness was unscathed. On the contrary, Mount Etmund also suffered losses. After more than a hundred elite, even an important person was skinned and executed by His Royal Highness, and a list was left."

"His Majesty then made a list, and the list of some important members of Mount Etmund in the grouping of other countries was announced. The countries shook, and for a while, Mount Etmund's reputation was wiped out, like a mouse crossing the street, everyone shouted In the end, the Hérault royal family came forward to coordinate. Mount Etmund promised to cancel the lore order, and the young patriarch promised not to pursue the assassination of Mount Etmund and allowed Mount Etmund to evacuate all personnel from Martin Liya. It has always been regarded as a shame by Mount Etmund, so this time, it is absolutely possible for Mount Etmund to use the hand of the Empire to retaliate against His Royal Highness! So even if you know that the Imperial Cavalry may not be in large numbers, your Royal Highness will You can only hold down everyone temporarily!"

Estain, who might have promised the Dark Servant to help him guard the surroundings, did not expect that his decision would have caused the 30,000 Martin Force Cavalry to stop.

The situation is too complicated! Silver Fox took a deep breath, his slightly thin figure was wearing armor, and it seemed that he could not support it. In terms of mentality and strategy, he believed that he was not inferior, but that was the emperor after all! It is impossible to say that there is no pressure inside,

At the moment of receiving the Dark Ser Army entering the border, the Silver Fox already knew that the Imperial Emperor had arrived at Karrisu, otherwise the Dark Ser people would never have the guts to turn their faces directly, and the Silver Fox had to admit that the Empire The emperor's counterattack was so overwhelming, it was absolutely unexpected and miraculous. ┏Ⅹ④③┏Ⅹ④③⑨⑨┛I worked hard and spent a lot of energy to pull the Northland aristocratic coalition southward, and push the Eero south to the north, echoing the Martin Liya army. The three-way attack on the empire in the south, replace it with any country, and face Such an offensive will have to be in a hurry, not to mention the fact that the main force of the empire is still north of the inland sea, and the assembly of troops and the transportation of materials are a big problem

Although the empire has heavy troops in Karisu, the dense forest of Karisu itself is a natural barrier that restricts the transportation of the large corps. In addition, it has its own stable arrangement on the western front. No matter how you look at it, this battle is stable. Winner! But what I’m afraid of is but, it’s only a month, this seemingly like a sky-like situation, I was flabbergasted by the imperial emperor.

Who would have imagined that the Hokuriku noble group, which had high hopes of it, was destroyed by World War I after only supporting it for less than a month, and was set up in the southern part of Karisu to contain the empire’s 300,000 Darkside Army, He was directly instigated by the imperial emperor and became the **** of the imperial counterattack. Who could have imagined that the forest of Karrisu, known as the Hundred Mile Forest, never had a road, was stupefied by the imperial empire in just one month. The corridor passageway that was enough to transport a large number of military resources, the empire used this corridor passageway to solve the innate shortcomings of the inability to launch a large army attack from the direction of Karisu, and the border of Karisu was broken in one fell swoop!

It's worthy of being the ultimate big boss in the South, who was killed with his own power in the last North-South war.

The corner of the silver fox's mouth twitched slightly, and his eyes flickered. Although he still looked calm and confident in front of him, he was in another state completely inside, like walking on thin ice.

Everyone is playing layout. Naturally, the last thing you want is to be led step by step by the other party, but Silver Fox is involuntarily involuntarily at this moment

The opponent chooses to be the counterattack point in the Kalisu area. Naturally, he is sure that he will be transferred back. If the situation is unknown, he would rather be cautious and be cautious when sailing the Wannian Ship, and never take the risk, because What this imperial emperor is best at is ambushes, and the power of the layout is like layers of spider webs, and people are led into the pit without knowing it

In this case, sending troops to rescue Stam without authorization is looking for a dead end!

An hour later, the Silver Fox received the scout's report, and the imperial cavalry suddenly evacuated.

"His Royal Highness, there is still time to rescue Stam!"

"Your Highness, save Stam!"

The generals of the Ansili family became excited. It was only more than an hour before Stam broke the city. If at this moment, the Ansili family’s cavalry could show their faces outside the city of Stam, it would be enough to deter and destroy the city. Tahm’s Darkside Army, the problem is, the consequences of such a risky attempt,

"Wait and see"

Silver Fox waved his hand towards the generals with a gloomy face, his face was uncertain, the emperor’s scouts had withdrawn, but it didn’t mean that the emperor’s team had withdrawn. Tens of thousands of troops did not mean that they would withdraw. It retreated. Who knows if there are any traps in front of him? Maybe the retraction of the scout itself is a trap, maybe the emperor is waiting for himself in Stam! The silver fox’s mind was tumbling with all kinds of possibilities~IndoMTL.com~ staring at the black smoke rising from the direction of Stam, his expression was cold, his clenched fingers were deeply sunken, and there was a pain in the palm of his hand. At this moment, Stamm was being slaughtered, but he could only watch, he had thirty thousand troops, but he did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pond, why!

Because the one who played chess with him is the emperor who has never defeated.

For those who dared to take a risk in front of the military **** emperor, the tomb head grass has no idea how high it is, not to mention that because of the rush, the Martin Lifang cavalry brought back by the silver fox himself is only 30,000. At this moment, in the direction of Stam, the Anser army alone has reached as many as 200,000. The strength of the empire is still unknown. The reason why the imperial scouts blocked Stam's direction should be to prevent the strength of the empire from being exposed!

If at this moment, Silver Fox knows that the empire’s combat power in the direction of Stam is a mere 2,000 cavalry, those 500 empire craftsmen are not part of a combat unit, and they are afraid that they will vomit blood on the spot! Because he did not dare to advance, a surprise attack that might have affected the overall direction of the battle turned into water, so that in later military research, the Martin Liya Army unexpectedly stopped outside of Stam, sitting and watching Stam being darkened. The Serbian army has never been able to get a correct explanation. There are even many scholars who have written as many as hundreds of research papers. Still no scholar has judged that Martin's 30,000 cavalry stopped moving. In fact, It was due to the commander's wrong judgment!
