Power and Empire Chapter 362: The race in the west
That's how the danger of Thieves comes! Hurry, like a sharp cold blade stabbed out of the void "The four throats that are still screaming are cut off,
Six thousand elite Samor cavalry guards are this sudden cold blade, eight thousand mercenaries without dragons have nothing but to be slaughtered, batches of rushing horses roaring past their sides, The stern sword chopped down with blood and cold light,
The horses roared, and the powerful impact smashed the enemy in front of them to pieces. The main Samor cavalry force impacted from a height, rolling up the dust in the sky; the Samor cavalry hurricane interspersed back and forth, killing Huta The Croatian army cried for father and mother, the mercenaries were cut into more than a dozen pieces, and the army broke like a rolling snowball, running under the chariot of horses
The galloping war horse carries a high-moving blade, wherever it passes, the stumps of human heads and limbs fall like raindrops, bright red blood spatters from the fractures of the human body, and the crude leather armor is easily cut like pieces of wood. The shield shattered into several pieces in the heavy chopping
Such a slaughter lasted for an afternoon. The Hutak army that was completely disintegrated had no chance to resist. In front of the Samor cavalry who rushed back and forth, thousands of corpses were stacked like weeds, like being harvested. The straw fell down in pieces, and a ray of sunset shone in from the corner of the two hills, printed and dyed on the bright red land here, the bright red people, the bright red earth, and even the sky was blood red.
"Grand Duke, the enemy has been wiped out by us!" The blood-stained Hu Keqili carried the head of the enemy general and ran over, with a look of disdain, "These guys are too casual! The quality of the Tyre family’s army is higher than that of them! To deal with such an army, only a thousand cavalry is enough! No! Five hundred people, just give me five hundred people." Hu Keqili was very excited and looked disdainful. Two fingers out
"Don't be too careless! The fat man glared at him with a serious look, then muffled and rebuked." After all, this is the west. We can't compare to the natives in the west in terms of terrain and adaptability! You can't underestimate all the Westerners just because of a victory, you are now a famous general in my Samor army! I don’t want to redeem your body from the enemy that day"
"The Archbishop is. I was too careless!" Hu Keqili said sternly,
The fat man nodded and said, "Although the western mercenaries are quite different from our army in terms of equipment and quality, they are locals familiar with the terrain. In this complex terrain area, they may face unprepared frontal conflicts. It will be defeated, but once we are prepared, we will use the familiar terrain to become my rival of Samer.
The fat man's face became dark, he sighed, and continued, "After this battle, our army must have a tendency to despise opponents. This is a taboo in the army. As the commander of the Guards, you should pay attention to this issue. , This is the first battle of my Falcon Principality, and we must never fail!"
"Yes, yes, I was so excited that I almost made a mistake!" Hu Keqili sweated coldly. Since the Battle of Tyre, the fat man hasn't scolded himself like this for a long time,
The name "Fatty Dog" has spread throughout the generals of General Samer. In front of the serious governor, any General Samer, even the three outstanding army commanders, would never dare Taking a breath, the Governor-General has never been soft-handed in the training of the army, and even ruthlessly scary.
"The most important thing in war is the fighter! Now there is a perfect opportunity in front of us. "The fat man waved his hand to him and pointed to Officer Jones next to him." This is the Nabrien of Jones. Captain! He has been in the west many times. He is our guide for this raid on Hutarencu. You immediately order the army to rest and go out after nightfall! We will take advantage of the victory to win the Hutak family’s nest"
The melodious bugle blew in the sunset, and the Samor guards and cavalry dismounted and slept for an afternoon. Even the people and horses seemed to be washed with sweat, and the arms wielding the sabers were already aching slightly. After nightfall, the warm daytime temperature dropped quickly, and the bursting cold wind blew the fat man’s face. There was a car mile from the entrance of the hill to the Hutarens Castle.
In the middle of the night, under the bright moonlight, the black shadow of Hutarencu Castle is faintly visible in the distance. The huge black shadow is like a giant beast entrenched on the side of the road,
"The whole army stop! Rest there!" The fat man waved to the Samor guard cavalry behind and stopped the horse in a higher hill.
"My lord, next to you is the main castle of the Tucker family." Guide Nabrien pointed to the distant castle and said, "I went inside as a family messenger two years ago. This castle is not big and the defenses are average. But there are two large arrow towers on the left, which can not only attack enemies outside the city wall, but also control the city wall. On the periphery of the castle, there are three small towers that control the business road outside the castle and the suspension bridge of the moat. The inside is put down. Only when the outer alarm is heard, the moat is eight meters wide. Only when the outer guard tower is eliminated, can the suspension bridge be rushed to the level of cavalry."
"This is indeed a problem!" The fat man listened carefully to Nabrien's explanation, nodded slightly, his piercing eyes like a sharp blade, through the faint night fog, looking at Hutarencu Castle,
The black shadow of the old Yinzhenwu Gaoshi looked particularly dazzling. It should be the large arrow tower that Nabrien had hungry for. From the perspective of its construction, it is indeed relatively outside. It is inserted horizontally from the middle of a stone wall. The pointed ceiling has the unique style of the west.
The lights on the city wall are very dim, and a few black spots walking back and forth can be vaguely seen,
The fat man looked at the castle in the distance, was silent for a while, then suddenly turned around, and told a longbow guard cavalry behind him, "Tajiktetu! Your archery skills are the best, just outside the guard tower Delivered to your longbow team"
Pointing to a dense forest about 50 meters away from the castle, he said to Hu Keqi, "Order the whole army to sneak into the woods with a wooden stick. If anyone does not get a business, he dare to do it privately." Talk to the voice! Stand up!"
The horses' hoofs stomped on the hard soil under their feet, and six thousand Samor cavalrymen walked along the dense forest. Divided into ten teams to sneak, the bright moonlight shone from the gaps in the leaves above the head, and white spots of light scattered on the fat man’s body,
The fat man waved his hand, and the sound of horseshoes behind him was quickly suppressed. The main hall of the castle was brightly lit, and a hustle and bustle with a melodious and beautiful music was blowing in the wind. It seemed that he was still unprepared inside, even Still holding a celebration banquet for the imminent occupation of Jones’ territory,
The suspension bridge is lying quietly on the moat, there are only a few guards at the gate, it seems that everything is going well
Human legs can't run horse legs, this is the fat man's calculations, a soldier!
It takes at least ten hours to walk from Hutarencu to Jones’ collar, and it takes 20 hours to go back and forth. Hutak’s army leaves the main fort in the morning and enters Jones’ collar in the afternoon.
The Hutak family calculated according to time that their army should have occupied Jones territory now, even if the battle is unfavorable, it will be tomorrow.
I would never expect that not only will my 8,000 troops be cleanly killed on the border, but there will also be a brigade of cavalry attacking in the dark,
In the cold night, white smoke spurted from the horse’s mouth, and the air was filled with a faint **** smell. This is the smell of the Samor cavalry who has no time to wash their weapons.
Black armor is the best cover color at night. A team of Samor cavalry guards squatted beside their horses, their eyes fixed on the wall not far away, where the air seemed depressive and heavy. Meaning is like a raging fire
It's already midnight, and the sky star is beginning to deviate, and it will be dawn in an hour. It is the most sleepy time. The sentries can only respond with anger at the sound of the banquet coming from afar. Look,
On a cold night, a small number of sentinels crowded the corners of the city wall. The extinguished bonfire illuminates their pale faces because of the cold. The night in the west is too cold, and the cold wind is whizzing by, and everything is done. The posture was frozen, the bright moonlight was shining down, everything seemed so cold, I could only hear the crackling of the wood in the fire,
The light of a guard tower in the distance flashed suddenly. Two black spots fell from above, which did not attract the attention of the sentry on the wall.” Soon, a bright torch swayed on the sentry tower in the distance, drawing three circles in the air in a row, “Look! That guy Hulunbei can't take it easy! I still play this game in the middle of the night! "A sentinel squatting by the fire grinned in a low voice and put his frozen hand on the fire
"People are signaling to their lover!" Another sentinel laughed." You don't know, but the daughter of Master Fei Ye's family is getting along with him! Maybe the lucky Hulunbei is about to be Squad leader! Then he can become a member of Master Fei Ye's family!"
"What a lucky man!" The sentinels exclaimed. Master Fei is the tax collector in the castle. When he becomes his son-in-law, he will not worry about food and clothing in his life.
Just when the sentries were squatting by the fire and talking~IndoMTL.com~A large number of black armored cavalry rushed out of the dense woods outside the castle, and the three guard towers had already been occupied by longbowmen. , A large number of cavalry rushed past without hindrance,
The sound of "rumble" horseshoes is like a thunder before a storm. The sentries on the wall raised their heads curiously and saw the bright moon still high in the sky, and several piles of black clouds floating in the sky like smoke. There is no sign of rain at all
"What's the matter?" A sentinel withdrew his hand from the fire, and walked from the warm fire to the battlement with a displeased expression. He leaned out half of his body as if he could clearly see the situation below. A black cloud came over the sky. It seems that even the moonlight in the sky must be covered, and then the firelight on the city gate, the ferocious black cavalry group like the demon **** in the darkness burst through the air
"Enemy! Enemy!" The sentry's eyes were bulging, and he couldn't even speak clearly when he was frightened.
"Beng" a galloping white line penetrated through his throat. The sentry's figure was shocked, and his body was knocked out by the huge impact, and fell straight in front of the other sentry's eyes,
A white arrow trembled at his throat, and his round eyes were panicked and hesitant, as if he had seen **** just now.
