Power and Empire Chapter 3543: A gale hits (11)
The long-lost morning light began to illuminate the plains in front of him. Estante was on the battlefield with corpses all over the field. His eyes were complicated. Estante, who was born in the Nords, used to look down on the undisciplined Kujites. At this moment, I have to admit that the imperial emperor is indeed the unworldly monarch who knows the Kujites best, and he was able to make the Xiting cavalry, who was rumored not to dare to fight hard, play the momentum of not retreating, and fight to the death last night. , It was so terrible and terrible. Under the continuous impact of the Xiting cavalry, Martin Liya infantry group's resistance was finally destroyed in the early morning, leaving tens of thousands of corpses on the ground and fleeing.
In the air, there is a strong smell of blood, which will not dissipate for a long time. The roads along the way are full of traces left after the **** battle. The corpses are like mountains, blood is everywhere, and there are dead people and horses. Especially in the places where the Xiting cavalry had the most tragic impact, the corpses with broken limbs and arms piled up into a small mound
Such a result of the battle made Estante completely unexpected. A result that was originally thought impossible was achieved, and after he gave the order to withdraw troops, there were rows after rows of West Court. The armor is still fighting hard. As the horse runs under the hips, the belly is going up and down desperately. Obviously, it has exhausted the last bit of strength. With every impact, the swords are staggered and stab each other, and the agile twists and turns to let it pass like a forest. Generally, the long spear that was erected, the reaction was slightly slower, then the horse was poked off, and then it was trampled by countless horseshoes. The fighting was extremely tenacious, and the unrelenting momentum was not inferior to the original Nordic spirit.
As a general Nord, who dominates in foot combat, Estante has always believed that the Kujit cavalry with a longbow horse is sturdy, but it is only limited to flat terrain. Once faced with a strong wall, The role of cavalry will be greatly reduced, only the gritty Nord soldiers can conquer the seat of the seat. But the scene last night completely broke his impression. It turns out that the Prairie Army has such a strong combat effectiveness, and it has the tenacity no weaker than any soldier
In the first battle last night, nearly four thousand Xiting cavalry were damaged, five or six thousand Xiting cavalry were wounded, and 30,000 Xiting troops were already disabled, but the result of Martin’s army was even worse, with a total of six to seventy thousand troops. It is conservatively estimated that more than 30,000 corpses were killed in battle. The remaining tens of thousands fled, all flags and weapons were discarded all over the floor. This means that Martin Liya’s largest heavy army on the Western Front was completely defeated. For the Western Front, it was definitely a strategic winner, and the miracle appeared because of the deadly battle of the Xiting cavalry. . . . . Estante retracted his gaze from a distance, feeling a little inside,
"Report to Master Estante that there is no Martin Liya Army near the entire battlefield. Where do we go next, please show Master Estante" General Xi Ting, who is in charge of searching the battlefield, looks excited. More than a dozen subordinates came from the opposite side, and saluted Estante together, showing a rare sense of identity in their expressions.
"Everyone seems to be less hostile to me"
Estante’s face was slightly wrong, and he sighed and said, I’m afraid that the tens of thousands of Martin Forces who have been defeated would never have thought that the Xiting cavalry who were fighting against him have always been at odds with him, and these Xiting cavalry are still After he issued the retreat order, he stubbornly moved forward and defeated them. Speaking of the commander of the Martin Liya Army, it was a bit wronged. Facing the strong impact of 30,000 cavalry, the opponents confronted them with inferior infantry groups. After persisting for three hours, the whole army collapsed after fighting to the end even when the line was destroyed. Under normal circumstances, it is already a proud record.
Only at this moment, in this battle of Martin Force’s West Line, it is destined to be a shameful role
On the Western Front, because of the collapse of the infantry group, there is no suspense. Even if the Silver Fox can deceive the Ansel in Stam, it is already a vain result. The Ansel is not a fool, so it will be the silver fox. I was scared because I didn’t know the strength of the silver fox. Once it was known that the main force of the silver fox had been defeated in the middle, then the speed at which the dark side turned his face was definitely a fast word.
"I’m sorry, we did have an opinion on the adults before, because we think the glory of the Hokuriku War was originally defeated by me in the Western Court, but in the end it all fell on the adults and was dissatisfied, but now , We have no complaints to the adults" The sturdy General Xi Ting showed a mouthful of white teeth in his mouth, and said with a slightly embarrassed face
"It's because of the Hokuriku war. I actually think that the Imperial Intelligence Department has deliberately misled, but now your attitude towards me has changed for the better, which makes me very puzzled." Estante looked hesitant. After a while, he said, because of the demise of the Beilu Group, the various ministries in Xiting have always been cold-hearted towards him. Today, it turned out to be uncharacteristic, which really surprised him a bit,
Estante’s battle for fame as the rising star of the empire by the comet was the battle to destroy the Hokuriku nobles in just half a month. In that battle, the main attack force was actually the Xi Ting army, but the Imperial Intelligence Department was in the emperor’s battle. Under instruction, he deliberately claimed that Estante was the overall command, and with the sharp cooperation of the imperial west court army and the west coast army, the entire Northland was included in the empire's territory in just fifteen days
So all the forces in the mainland naturally regarded the Xiting Army as Estante’s subordinate. Naturally, all the achievements of the Xiting Army fell on Estante, but for the various ministries of the Xiting, the heart was very much. It’s so sorrow and grief, it is clear that he is the main cause of Hokuriku's surrender, but it has been ignored by others
Without the West Court landing from the north, it would be impossible for the Northland Seventeen Families to burst internally so quickly. If it were not for the pressure of the West Court Army, the leaders of the Northland Noble Legion would not gather in Ellensburg, the first. It was the Xiting Army that entered the Northland and crushed the Northland noble group strongly, and the situation in the Northland at that time, even if this Estante did not launch a counterattack against the Northland, Hokuriku would not be able to sustain the Xiting attack for 15 years. God, and in the Battle of Hokuriku, what Estante, who finally put the name of victory into his bag, was just waiting at the entrance to Hokuriku
As the commander of the imperial army who entered the Northland, Estante was able to achieve a miraculous victory in the War of the Northland. It was only by using the impact of the Xiting Army to destroy the entire North in just ten days. The brilliant record of Lu Group! He did his best, but his reputation belongs to others. How can the rebellious Xi Ting ministries be convinced in their hearts? It is unceremonious to say that the reputation of a generation of famous generals, Estante, can be said to be born on the shoulders of their Xi Ting army. ,
Although the Battle of Hokuriku was only a localized war, it attracted the attention of the entire Obaro continent. The imperial army carried out a slaughter outside the city of Roston, beheading 60,000 Hokuriku nobles in one fell swoop. The core figures of the Lu aristocratic group were almost uprooted. At the same time, the Hokuriku aristocratic leaders accidentally sank the lake in Ellensburg, which eventually led to the surrender of the various families in the North. It was regarded as a landmark event of the empire’s brutality. He didn’t know that what he accomplished in one fell swoop because of the Battle of the Northland was actually a terrible fame. So when I learned that King Falcon Khan specially asked this Estante to take charge of this battle, the violent Xi Ting Army Up and down also feel pressure,
The leaders of the various ministries also secretly discussed giving the empire's famous general a good look, but later it was nothing. In fact, the Xiting army also knew that the merits of the Battle of Northland were put under the name of Estante, obviously. The meaning of King Falcon Khan, because from the beginning to the end, the Xiting Army was not the regular army of the Empire, and Estante was the official commander of the Empire, and the sinking of Ellensburg was really incredible. I don’t believe it. Instead of doing this, it’s better to just acquiesce in. Anyway, Estante’s reputation has been completely reddened by blood during the Battle of Roston City, and the addition of Ellensburg is at best brutal and perverted. , But the battle last night caused the heads of all ministries in Xiting to dispel this thought, or they had misunderstood this fierce imperial general in the past
"The reason why we respect the adults is because they gave an order to retreat when the battle was deadlocked last night." General Xi Ting gave an answer that made Estante's face dull
"The retreat order? I don't understand. Is there a problem with issuing the retreat order in that situation? And you didn't follow the order" Estante asked with a look of confusion,
"In that case, your lord could still take into account the casualties of our army and issue an order to withdraw the troops. All parts of our Xi Ting remembered this in my heart, "The general Xi Ting smiled and said," because this is enough to show that your Excellency did not give me an order. The Xiting man was regarded as the cannon fodder to earn his military merit, otherwise he would never give an order to retreat. Otherwise, in the battle last night, my Xiting 30,000 cavalry slammed up. The collapse of the Martin Liya army is only a matter of time. I believe The adults know this very well, and we have also made preparations for the adults to order the death battle, but I will inevitably suffer heavy casualties from the West Court, but I did not expect that the adults will issue the retreat order at that time ""
"The adults can put the damage of our army first, instead of treating my Xiting man as a sacrifice, it is enough to win the respect of my Xiting man"
Hearing the words of General Xi Ting, Estante showed a daze on his face. He didn't expect that the retreat order he issued last night would have such an effect. At the same time, he felt a little palpitating about the situation of the Xi Ting army. It was other imperial generals who commanded last night. They were used to the perseverance of the regular army, or they would not give retreat orders at all, but ordered forced advancement.
And not everyone can face such a glorious military exploit at their fingertips, and will consider the life and death of Xiting people!
For this kind of mentality, Estante himself has it. Estante still looked down on the Xiting Army before last night, because in the eyes of most regular soldiers in the Empire, the East and West Courts are consumables, although the East and West Courts are consumables. The position in the Imperial Army is not low, and the fighting power is absolutely fierce. Moreover, the two courts definitely have a place in the empire. Among the eleven princesses, three come from the two courts and are unique in the imperial harem.
As for the forces in the empire's territory, the two courts are giants. The total number of cavalry is more than 200,000. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the largest cavalry cluster in the empire. The empire has divided the wilderness of thousands of miles to the north. However, in essence, the two courts are not the true citizens of the empire. After all, they are not pure imperial ownership. While the empire has given the two courts great autonomy, it also prevents the two courts from being able to compete with the regular army of the empire. Sitting on an equal footing, I have to say that the emperor had a clear understanding of the beasts of the two courts. The two courts are like wolves raised in the family. They can feed meat to it and drive them to bite people, but it is absolutely impossible to be parallel to loyal dogs , Because wolves eat meat, wolves will hurt their owners if they are not well managed
"Collect the whole army, let's go to Stam!" Estante drew his sword and pointed to the east, took a deep breath, and shouted, countless Xiting cavalry just looked at Estante's tall figure and the mountain The wind rolled up the cloak behind him.
Stam,
The sun at the end of the autumn is no longer hot, and after Stam enters the rainy season, the humidity is still quite high. When the earth is hazy, a layer of white water-like mist is flowing on the ground, and the silver fox sits on its feet. On the high-rise watchtower in the camp, playing with a few small rocks in his hand, his eyes fell on the front of another special envoy of the Martin Force who came slowly here, and the corner of his mouth curled slightly with disdain. It seems that Anse's interior has no power to control. After he proposed the conditions that the Anse army can be released, although Anse has not replied, some of Anse's tribes can't help but send their own envoys.
"Please also your Highness can give my clan a voucher to let my clan leave the wolf Xibia, and my clan will immediately withdraw its troops from Stam"
The envoy knelt on his knees before the man who the entire Southern Oubaro was afraid of, and said in a trembling voice. There was a violent trembling in the air, and a small stone hit The head of the pale-faced envoy bounced and rolled a few times after landing. The envoy was overjoyed and ignored the blood that was beaten out of his head. He grabbed the stone in his hands with both hands, as if holding it. What do you live with baby
Silver Fox said coldly, "Within an hour, leave Stam with this, I can promise not to attack you"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" With the small stone picked up by the silver fox, this envoy thanked him for leaving. At this moment, in the eyes of Anse's ministries, he continued to stay in Stam. It’s so stupid that I was almost knocked down last night. That’s because the main force of the Silver Fox did not arrive. Once the main force of the Silver Fox arrives, it will be the moment when the whole army of Anse collapsed.
Don’t look at Anse’s aggressive reinforcement of the camp nowadays, putting on a posture of fighting to the end. In fact, everyone knows that the moment Anse’s army was shaken from the moment the Imperial Cavalry turned and left, Arnold’s The guards drove out of the battalion to boost morale, that is, to save a little face. Everyone is not a fool. Even if the military spirit can be maintained, it will not be of much use. Stam can’t stay anymore
Not to mention that there are still 300,000 Martin Liya people in Stam City who can counterattack at any time, even facing the army of Martin Liya's first wise general, the silver fox, is also the result of ten deaths and no life. People are panicked and secretly seized. All ministries have begun to withdraw their troops,
"The Astars just evacuated without authorization"
"The **** of the Stanlan clan have also gone!"
"Master Slick of the tower clan said~IndoMTL.com~The strength of the Star clan is weak and it is cumbersome to stay here. Please allow the evacuation of the adults."
Arnowell listened to the report with a green face, and looked at the flags flying in the camp with cold eyes. The guards behind him presented the perfumed towels, and did not care about admiring the things that Martin Liya had only for the nobles, and only rubbed a handful of them on his face. He threw the towel on the ground. Stand up and stamp your feet severely
"These **** don't have to think about it. Once everyone is gone, Martin Liya can break them all!"
"My lord, the situation is already like this now. The various ministries are in charge of fleeing for their lives." The generals of the Anuo tribe also asked for an order to evacuate. Whoever can leave earlier will have a greater chance to escape. The wolf Xibia jumped out, because even if the silver fox broke its promise and started the hunt, it would definitely be the last bad luck. In the final analysis, the sooner the better, the wolf Xibia will never come again. !
Arnover spoke hard, but he was screaming in his heart. He didn't expect the hearts of the various ministries to dissipate so quickly. Before the main force of the silver fox arrived, the ministries were already scared. Is it that the 200,000 Anse army is not as good as the 2,000 imperial cavalry? Is the distance between Anse and this mainland power really so great! He snorted heavily between his nose, "Asshole, it was a good fight, how come it ended up like this!"
