Power and Empire Chapter 3744: Under the sword (9)
Ero Royal Capital,
The state of war has been going on for three months, and the streets are almost completely dark. The Imperial Army has implemented strict curfew measures. The lights must not be turned on after nine o'clock in the evening. The outline of the city of Novosibirsk is hidden in the darkness. There are sporadic fire lights on the wide city wall that is only 20 meters high, shining on the figures of soldiers patrolling back and forth. Standing on the tower and looking into the distance, it is a bonfire full of mountains and plains like a milky way
It has been two months since the southern vassal coalition has surrounded the capital. This situation has been going on. From the beginning of the tension, no one takes the southern coalition too seriously.
The thick and heavy city gates have long been closed firmly, and all the high suspension bridges have been pulled up. The thick black iron ropes look extraordinarily heavy and solid in the dim light. The quiet night is only night. The sound of the wind blowing over the city, the night-time Imperial soldiers are used to standing here and looking into the distance. The 11th and 13th Banners of the Imperial Central Army are stationed in the area of the Royal Capital of the Empire. They are well-equipped and high-spirited. Although it is known that the southern princes coalition outside the city is known to be as many as 200,000, but in the several attacks, the southern princes coalition forces are so weak that people can’t believe it. If they were not allowed to attack without permission, these two The elite flag regiment of the Imperial Central Army has already been defeated by itself.
"Everyone keep their eyes brighter, but don't let the fat in your mouth run away if things happen to you"
An imperial officer walked into the post on the city wall and saw that except for one soldier watching the wind, several other soldiers were resting against the battlement. He couldn't help but shout in a deep voice. Suddenly, the faint noise from the south broke the tranquility of the city wall. They were all veterans who had experienced battlefield fighting. They immediately sensed something and quickly picked up their weapons.
"Dangdang!" The warning bell rang through the city, and the vicinity of the city wall suddenly boiled.
"What's the situation?"
"Are the Erotians going to run away?"
Countless imperial soldiers awakened from their sleep seemed to pop up suddenly, carrying their own weapons and rushing to the tower. Each of them has only one consciousness in their minds, that is, the southern princes coalition forces should not run away. Everyone has watched eagerly here for two months. They thought that these southern coalition forces would take the initiative to rush forward. Who knows except for a few small-scale shocks. Besides, it was as calm as death, watching the other imperial troops on the coast of Fazexi, west of Martin's teeth, invincible in the holy capital of the Kingdom of the Order, under the sword, invincible, and the sharp sword of the imperialists once. Throwing on the pale face of the enemy again and again, only in Erot, the Empire has always maintained a defensive posture, without a large-scale battle. This is true for the two empire’s central flag regiments that were preparing for a battle. It feels too embarrassing,
Now we have finally waited for the news of going south. If we let the Eero Southern Allied forces run away in this way, wouldn't everyone watch it for nothing in the past two months?
Sure enough. The sound from the streets in the city became louder and louder. In the silent night sky, it was already possible to accurately judge the sound of rushing horseshoes, and the faint roar of people, and I saw the imperial ordering cavalry with the flag on its back. The mouth is still yelling, "The whole army is assembled, the Erotians are going to run!"
"Everyone assembled"
"Speed, the Erotians are going to run." Hearing the voice of the cavalry, the officers of the various armies immediately began to gather their troops. All the soldiers lined up. The cold and bright spears stood in rows, carrying the empire. The infantry shooters of the crossbow, the imperial light cavalry that quickly turned on their horses, and the troops stationed in the city began to dispatch on a large scale. The streets of the shady king capital of Eero were quickly filled with countless torches, if there were any. With a pair of eyes looking down from a high altitude, you can see that the whole city seems to be full of fire at this moment, like a beast waking up from the night
"My lord, it has been confirmed that the troops in the southern princes camps have been mobilized overnight, and two of them have left the camps"
An imperial official hurriedly ran up the wall of the Royal Capital of Erot. Lisatir, the commander of the Eleventh Banner of the Central Army of the Empire, was standing at the head of the city. The flames were shining on the imperial banner. On the back of the head, more torches lit up on the wall. In order to be able to see the surrounding situation, beside Lisatir, a row of imperial crossbowmen wrapped cotton soaked in oil on the arrowhead, then lit it on the torch, and then shot it out into the sky with a red dot. Like a star rising from the ground line, it quickly became a small torch that illuminates the darkness in the original place. The land around two hundred meters in front is illuminated by such a torch.
Wow...
The rapid sound of horseshoes, in the dark shadows in the distance, finally appeared a group of shadowy southern vassals scouts, yelling loudly while galloping. Lisatier Qi frowned quietly, and the southern princes' coalition scouts had arrived so close. What these scouts were yelling at, Lisatir could not understand. Their voices are very fuzzy in the dark
"What are they yelling at?" Lisatir heard a low voice from an officer next to him.
"It seems to be shouting and exposing..." Someone replied in a low voice, and the tone was quite puzzled. Because of the stationed in the capital of Ero, the Empire transferred a group of military interpreters from the port of Cairo. Most of these translators cannot be regarded as regular emperors. Most of them are members of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce and are requisitioned by the army. They do not need to participate in combat.
"Exposed?" Lisatir frowned slightly. In addition to him, there was Lu Yafei, the commander of the Thirteenth Banner, in the two Imperial Central Corps stationed in the Holy Capital of Ero.
However, Lu Yafei is not in the Eero capital now, but went to Cairo Port to report the situation in the Eero capital to the Imperial Minister Hu Keqili, so Lisatir is the current Eero capital. The highest military commander, as the news of the empire’s southward spread spread, Lisatir could clearly feel that the entire military spirit was floating, and the already stable situation of the surrounding Erotians began to vaguely surging.
The Erotians were afraid of the rule of the empire at the beginning, because the Erotians did not know how the Imperial Army would deal with the Royal Capital of Erot, especially since they had just experienced the tragic looting of the Order. The loss of the royal capital is tragic, and the population has lost half of it. Only more than 20,000 people were killed by the religious group, but as many as more than 200,000 escaped from the royal capital. The regiment nation, the name of the empire’s brutality is still on it, but out of the Erot’s surprise, the empire’s rule in Erot’s capital is not harsh, but a curfew is imposed, gatherings are not allowed, and occasionally resistance to some behaviors. The suppression was launched, but it is still within a tolerable range
In the back, the army of the princes in the southern part of Eero fought back. The Eero people in the Eero capital thought that the Imperial Army team would escape, but the result was that the Imperial Army team was still there, but the 200,000 troops outside the city did not. It is to besiege King Eero without attacking. The emotions of Neero people in King Ero spread over time, from the initial excitement, excitement, to inexplicable anger, and then to indifference. It is also a mockery. With the imperial army The news of going south has spread, and now even the Aero people themselves know that the princes of the southern Aero outside the city are about to run away! The situation tonight seems to prove this even more. The evacuation of the princes in the south of Eero may be tonight!
"My lord, if you let the Eero run away like this, I'm afraid that Mr. Hukoqili will not be easy to explain. In the final analysis, it also ran away from under our noses." An officer finally couldn't bear it.
Chasing? Still not chasing? Lisatir put his hand on the city head, looking solemnly at the distant fires over the mountains and plains, and the surrounding imperial officials also held their breath. The Eero Southern Allied Forces are about to run away, can they fight or not! Although the Eero southern coalition forces are poor in combat power, they have an absolute advantage in numbers, and the terrain here is still the continuation of the Great Plains. With the 20,000 Emperor Army team pursuing the 200,000 Eero southern coalition forces, the opponent only needs to arrange a little. In one fell swoop, it was possible that the Twenty Thousand Emperor ** team was trapped in a situation of being surrounded, but without chasing them, could it really be like watching the princes in the southern part of Eero pat their buttocks and run?
Whether there is an ambush or not, you will know it only after you fight! Lisatir issued an order to open the gate of the royal capital
"Chuck", the heavy and huge gate of the Eero Royal Capital slowly opened under the push of more than a dozen imperial soldiers. The firelight reflected on the sand lion relief of the Eero Royal Family on the gate, showing a chilling attitude. Ten seconds after the city gate was opened, a heavy muffled thunder began to sound from the city gate, and a group of imperial cavalrymen rushed out of the city gate like a wind. These Imperial Central Army cavalry were wearing red long tassels. The helmet, the whole body is full of thick armor, silently jumping with horseshoes, the ground shakes and the mountains sway, there is a faint feeling of turbulent sea tides, rumbling, heavy hoofs, and the mountains cracking, stepping into the spreading entrance in front, and curling up for a while. The white mist cuts through the ground in front of it like a half arc
"The cavalry queue spread out and search" with a command,
Suddenly, the imperial assault cavalry, wearing a sophisticated cleat and cavalry armor with a pointed red tassel on their heads, quickly spread out from the gate more than 100 meters away, like a big net suddenly spread out, red The capes of the cavalry of the empires of the Central Army brought a chill. A few minutes later, the imperial infantry came out of the city gate. The metal armor and spears flashed in the night, consisting of 1,500 imperial cavalry and 3,000 imperial infantry. The front sharp, behind is the densely packed imperial infantry group marching out of the city to line up again,
"Light up the front"
Lisatier raised his right hand with a cold face, and a rocket on the city head flew high again,
"Kill!" At this moment, the sudden change occurred, and I saw the more than 1,000 imperial cavalry long lines driving out in front, seeming to be violently colliding with another force in the dark,
"Attention, the enemy cavalry" The imperial cavalry did not expect that the cavalry of the southern vassals would ambush here. Among them, there was a sudden eruption, and countless armored cavalry suddenly poured out on the opposite side. Yes, they were armored cavalry. These dark red armored cavalry suddenly appeared in the dark. They were caught off guard. The Imperial cavalry had already hit it. kill! The weapons of the two sides met. The imperial cavalry was caught in a chaotic battle almost as soon as they saw each other. The horses were shot in the impact and neighed fiercely, and the bodies of the cavalry above were splashed with terrifying red, and the southern princes could not be seen at all. A little bit weak
"Wow!"
The collision of the two forces is like the entire strong assault momentum suddenly broken. The horseshoes are tilted into the soil, and they are red when they are lifted. The moment the cavalry lances hit the target, the bones were pierced terribly. The sound, the horses rolled and fell to the ground while running, the imperial cavalry performed extremely sturdy, but the red armored cavalry on the opposite side was no less inferior, and the weapons in these red armored cavalry were not all swords and spears. Some red armored cavalry held them tightly in their hands. Is a thick black iron rod
The huge sound of "Boom Rumble" suddenly exploded, a pungent gunpowder, and the imperial cavalry saw a burst of fire suddenly exploded in front of them, and a large swath of sparks exploded suddenly. The imperial cavalry who were still running seemed to be caught It was hit by a huge force head-on, and was beaten out from the galloping war horse. In an instant, dozens of cavalry were down.
"Asshole, what!" The imperial cavalry who were attracted by the explosion shrank their pupils. Even the trained horses, before the sudden explosion, there was chaos, and the imperial cavalry was not allowed Without struggling to hold on to the horse, the red-armored cavalry on the opposite side showed considerable coordination. They rushed into the imperial cavalry group without any impact. The long iron rod that exploded just now turned into a mace. Sweeping, the imperial cavalry fell from the horses. These red armored cavalry themselves are not the cavalry of the southern vassal army~IndoMTL.com~They are the red dragon cavalry regiment famous for its mysterious and powerful in the Kingdom of Aden
"Imperial Cavalry, but that's all!"
Poros is riding a black horse, watching the fight ahead, his face is cold, although he has used all the princes in the south of Eero as bait, Poros does not want the princes in the south to run hurriedly, so as to comfort people. The best way to prove that the empire is not invincible, and the imperial cavalry is undoubtedly the most elite force in the imperial army, and most of the imperial troops in the capital of Erot are infantry, and the number of cavalry is not Many, because the empire is mainly for defense and there are not many places where cavalry is needed. As long as it is properly arranged, Poros believes that even the imperial cavalry can be touched by the strength of his red dragon cavalry, not to mention the red dragon of Aden. The guards of the temple, the Red Dragon Knights are not only well-equipped, but also equipped with the unique Red Dragon Breath, Red Dragon Breath, which is unique to the guards of the Red Dragon Palace. In fact, it is one of the weapons of the Holy City at the beginning, the predecessor of the Red Dragon Palace. It’s the Holy City Guardian Army,
Because of the collapse of the holy city, the sacrificial group with the knowledge of the holy city claimed to find a new place in the holy city. The Eero branch, which mastered the wealth, rebelled and hunted down the sacrificial group. As the red dragon group armed with the temple, they chose After decades of improvement and imitation of the Red Dragon Palace, the newly developed Gulf of Aden has finally developed an imitation of the Red Dragon’s Breath, which is similar to a fire-breathing gun, and because of the existence of the Red Dragon Palace, the Kingdom of Aden is in Mathematics, navigation, and sky are all at the top level of the entire continent.
