Section 5 War
Pedi's words were sonorous and powerful, and after he finished speaking, the armor of his whole body flowed with divine golden energy, and his eyes looked directly at Muvet-Phil like gods, "This is my decision!"
"I thought you'd take my advice. Muvet-Phile's expression remained unchanged, "Accept everything from me, and you will end the war with me in no time, and... I will also spare no effort to help you get to the Sukh Plains and get everything you want, and all I want is to live forever under this familiar starry sky. β
As if he hadn't heard Muvet, Pedi asked another question, "Do you know why I agreed to come and talk to you?" and he asked himself, "I'm just here to see what you look like, the divine power has memorized your soul, and I will destroy your fortress and strip you of your memory." β
"With your strength, you should be able to perceive a great force from the void, and if I want to, you don't have any chance of killing me, and even if you can kill me, I can still exist in another life form. "But I hate that lifeform, and I don't want to bow down to the Order of Chaos." β
"Is the Order of Chaos really returning?" said Drahir.
"Everything you find is real, it's a force that even I wouldn't dare to resist, but I don't like that. Muvet-Phil didn't answer directly, but he looked at Pedi, "It seems that there can only be war between us?"
"If you are willing to give up your army and promise not to appear in the continent of Ailan again, and not to appear in the world of the living again..."
"I love the world of living people, but I can promise not to disturb them. β
"Maybe this war will make you change your mind!"
"Then we'll see you on the battlefield!"
...
Negotiations between the living and private individuals can only end in an unhappy way.
On the way back to the military formation, the silent magician Leah couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, you should probably promise him..." β
"A very good suggestion. Pedi shrugged and said, "But you forgot, I am Pedi Reagan, the ruler of the Kingdom of Cruria, who is about to rule the entire human world, and he Muvet Phil... It's just a person who can only rely on death to survive. β
Pedi looked at his magical advisor and asked, "Do you think it's worth trading the reputation of a king for such a person's life?"
"Don't talk to death, it's a warning from the elven ancestors, and your decision is the right one. The elven general Drahiel bowed slightly on his horse's back in respect.
Pei Di ignored the two of them and quickly returned to the military formation.
"What does Muvet-Phil want to do?" asked the old orc Morinda deliberately aloud.
"He wants to surrender!" replied Peddy louder, then looked around and said, "But I refused his surrender, the warriors of the Kingdom of Kruria will not trade with any dark forces!"
"Blow the horn and prepare to attack!"
Pedi didn't let the huge army wait any longer, and without hesitation, he drew the command sword at his waist and gave the order to attack.
"Buzz"
In the sound of the horn of the military formation of the Kingdom of Kruria, in order to deal with the heavy armored skeleton legion sent by the undead legion, the two infantry regiments of the First Infantry Army slowly walked out of the military formation, and advanced towards the battlefield under the protection of the holy power of the paladin and the magic shield of the mage.
Immediately flanked by the musketeers, they were dressed in very low-key gray light armor with simple swords, and it was hard to believe how powerful this force could be. Pedi himself led the Paladins and two hoplites on the flanks in search of a chargeable fighter.
More than ten minutes later, after several rounds of arrows from both sides, the infantry began to engage in close combat.
In a matter of moments, the soldiers of the central battlefield were fighting together, countless spears piercing, swords slashing open chests, brilliant magic continued to erode the evil energy of the undead, and divine power continued to cut through the darkness, but soon more evil energy came, bringing countless death magic to re-envelop the darkness.
"Bang Bang Bang"
Suddenly, a strange sound echoed through the plains and valleys.
It was the two musket corps on the flanks of the infantry corps that finally arrived at the firing site, and in the face of the charging army of death, the musketeers skillfully crouched on the ground and fired at the sound of the officer's order.
The guns rang out in rows of brilliant flames and a slight magical response, and countless steel bullets sliced through the void and slammed into the heavily armored skeleton warriors, instantly turning them back into skeleton shelves and spreading them to the ground.
"Boom" is accompanied by a violent explosion from time to time during the shooting of the musket, and after the explosion, the flames like the dragon's breath spread out from the center of the explosion point to all directions, which are the magicians mixed in with the musket corps, and Peidi calls these magicians 'Magi'.
"Roar!" a roar from the undead army responded to the attack of the musket regiment, but the musket regiment on the battlefield did not pay attention to such a roar, and the muskets in their hands continued to harvest the charging undead soldiers under the command of the officer.
The sharp attack method of the musket regiment made the soldiers of the kingdom who were watching the battle in the rear army array let out bursts of cheers, and countless pairs of eyes looked at the fire-spitting equipment, and their hearts were thinking about how to get such equipment.
The attack of the musket regiment lasted for nearly half an hour, and when the necromancers of the undead regiment arrived, and countless shields glowing with evil energy were propped up, the single offensive means of the musket regiment was immediately blocked, and it could only target the troops charging on its flanks.
However, this does not mean that the Musketeer Corps has lost its effectiveness, as evidenced by the undead legions who are too afraid to move forward.
"Roar!" another roar came from the undead legion, accompanied by a slight tremor of the ground.
The Undead Legion has finally sent out the Death Beast and the Iron Guard, the monster's own shield that can effectively protect itself and cover the attacks of other death armies.
In the face of the Death Beast and the Iron Guard, Morinda who commanded the specific tactical policy did not hesitate to send the Orc Brigade and ordered the paladins on the front line to assemble to deal with the surprise attack of the Death Beast and the Iron Guard.
...
Time is slowly slipping away, and the battle on the valley plain has passed a morning before you know it. Judging from the overall battle situation, it is more favorable to the kingdom's army, but the advantage is not very obvious.
However, the troops dispatched by the kingdom army are only the ones planned, and the remaining huge army force is still standing still. Similarly, the undead legion did not use all their strength.
A morning of war was nothing more than a mutual test by the commanders of both sides.
The Paladins and Heavy Cavalry Corps led by Pedi had already occupied a favorable position to charge, but they remained unmoved for a whole morning. Because the commanders on the opposite side obviously had a lot of experience in commanding the battlefield, their flanks were so tightly defended that it was impossible to start.
"Do you think there's any way to loosen their flank defenses?" Pedi asked Wren beside him.
"As long as the commander of the other side is not stupid, we stay here, and it is impossible for the defense on the other side to relax. Wren had been commanding the hoplite cavalry corps for a long time, "and unless we moved, there was no chance at all." β
"You can't hesitate to charge the cavalry!" said the knight in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, we are heavy cavalry, we don't have to care about their defensive strength at all, and... The soldiers are wearing heavy armor now, and if we continue to wait, we will not be able to stand it ourselves. β
Don Nai is right, cavalry charges should not be hesitated, let alone heavy cavalry.
But as the king, Pedi didn't want his elite troops to be too damaged before the Battle of Tyre. What's more, this time he personally led the cavalry charge, so he couldn't lose too much. At best, his charge swept through the undead legion in a perfect state.
However, Pedi knew better that victory on the battlefield was the most important thing, and he thought again and again:
"Order the Goblin Dinosaur Cavalry Regiment to detour to the opposite high ground and harass the enemy's left flank... At the same time, order General Drahiel's troops to respond to the attack of the Goblin Dinosaur Cavalry Regiment, andβ" He turned his head and looked at the herald solemnly, "Let Sir Morinda command the army to press forward!"
Within half an hour, the king's order had spread throughout the entire war zone, and the huge army began to mobilize in the midst of numerous orders as it approached at two o'clock in the afternoon.
First of all, the Goblin Dinosaur Cavalry Regiment constantly stabbed back and forth on the left flank of the Undead Legion with its strong mobility ability. Soon after, the nearly 100,000 troops in the rear also began to slowly move forward, making a decisive posture.
In the face of the sudden and powerful attack, the headquarters of the undead legion did not dare to be too careless, and they first contracted their defensive positions on the left flank that was disturbed by the goblin dinosaur cavalry. As soon as the left flank of the Undead Army had just contracted, the main force of the Fifth Army led by Drachier pressed the entire line and launched a strong attack.
Under the onslaught of the Fifth Army, the Undead had to shrink the forces under its cavalry and at the same time send an army of heavily armored ghouls, which were already fully equipped.
Pedi watched silently at everything on the battlefield in the distance, and when the soldiers on both sides were intertwined in the center and the left flank, and the right flank began to loosen, he took two steps forward and took both hands from his hands and hammered them on his shoulders.
"Wren, you lead the 1st Cavalry Regiment to attack the left flank!"
Pei Di pulled the reins of the horse and deliberately let the war horse move two steps, and after Wren took the military order, he looked at the knight of Don Nai on the other side, "Knight Don Nai, you are responsible for attacking the right flank." β
"Remember, the charge is followed by my royal banner!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The two of them took the order at the same time, and decisively pulled the horse's head,
"Check your equipment to see if your spears are sharp, and your shields, which will be the key to surviving the rain of arrows. Pedi shouted, "Raise your swords and let this land be stained with the blood of the enemy, and let us bathe in blood!"
Pedi pulled the reins of his horse back and forth, and roared loudly:
"Don't be afraid of the darkness, the end of the darkness is the eternal light!"
"For the sake of our families, friends, loved ones, and for the future of the kingdom, warriors of Cruria, take courage... Don't stop charging even if the sky collapses!"
"Fight to the death for the kingdom!"
Pedi roared as he controlled the horses to run back and forth to mobilize the warriors' fighting spirits, and when everyone was eager to try, he raised his hammer and roared again: "Fight to the death!"
The soldiers who heard the king's roar subconsciously followed the roar: "Fight to the death!"
"Fight to the death!" Pedi roared again.
"Fight to the death!" more soldiers responded to the king's endless fighting spirit.
"Fight to the death!" the roar of tens of thousands of warriors pierced the sky, and the sound was instantly transmitted to every corner of the battlefield, making the blood of all the kingdom soldiers boil.
"Raise your spear!"
In the dim sky, countless spears were raised high in a fierce cold light, as if they could pierce the sky.
"Follow me and charge!"
Pedi looked at the herald and flag bearer beside him, nodded to them, and then pulled the horse's head and held the war hammer to control the war horse and slowly move forward.
The two frontmost columns of soldiers in the rear Paladin Regiment and the Heavy Knights Regiment immediately followed,
Soon, the huge cavalry began to move slowly.
"Boom"
As the earth began to shake, the cavalry on the right flank of the entire battlefield began to sweep through every inch of land they covered. The dazzling holy power slowly expanded in the process of charging, and the charging royal banner was illuminated by the holy power, which not only made people have a deep urge to bow and worship.
At the forefront of the charging army, the ruler of the kingdom, Pedy Reagan, was now surrounded by divine power.
Before the charge, Pedi was inexplicably excited, but after the charge, Pedi suddenly calmed down, and he calmly observed the charging target that was constantly approaching in the distance. He knew his duty, he couldn't just be brave like the other warriors, his duty was to lead the soldiers to victory.
Slowly, the speed of the war horse under the crotch was getting faster and faster, the cold wind whistling between the gaps in the armor pierced people's eyes, the thick fishy smell was getting closer and closer, the appearance of the enemy was becoming clearer and clearer, and Peidi's heart was becoming more and more calm.
Before he could see what the enemy was like, the lines of the two sides were already close at hand, and the bone arrows that fell like a torrential rain instantly obscured a large area of the sky, making the already gloomy weather even darker.
Many of the charging warriors fell under the attack of the arrows, but many more were still charging... They charge on the fallen corpses of their comrades!
There was no time to mourn for his comrades, let alone to tell whether his friend had fallen or not, and the distance was almost a moment away for the cavalry.
"Puff"
The spear and spear stabbed, after paying a certain amount of casualties, the huge charging team broke through the enemy's blockade line in a rain of blood that seemed to fall from the sky, like a sharp huge spear pierced straight into the enemy camp.
