2386 The Wind Passes Through the Corridor (6)

The rain-colored mountains, under the dark sky of the night, are an inky undulation

The rainy night when the torches could not be lit, with a rolling thunder flashing, illuminated the rocks on a curved mountain road three or four miles long in front, the Ula Mountain Road, the only way to the capital of King Faisan, and also the place where Valisian stopped his war horse to stand, the imperial general's cloak behind him was rolled up by the mountain wind, and his hand repeatedly rubbed the handle of the imperial arc war knife at his waist,

This war knife has obvious characteristics of the first generation of imperial war knives in the Samore era, with a bit of strange beauty of the blade cold mouth, the blood color of many years of invasion seems to have infiltrated the knife surface, the weight of the war knife is extremely heavy, not counting the handle of more than twelve catties, even the position of the handle is slightly red, although Varisian is known as the imperial lucky general, known as the good luck general, but also in the corpse mountain blood sea again and again killed the imperial warrior. If it comes to the battle under his command, even compared to the five big bosses of the empire, it is only a line of seniority, "The whole team dismounts, pay attention to the search and advance!" A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Varisian's mouth, and he raised his hand behind him, after years of fighting, he had already developed Varisien's intuition for danger, just like a hunter who is good at ambushes is always a little more sensitive to traps, and the Ula Mountain Road in front of him gave him this feeling, "Dismount!" With an order, behind him, thousands of imperial cavalry came down from their horses, iron armor, cold as snow, silent in the rain, the rain flowed down the gap in the armor, and merged into the soil under the feet of the soldiers, like a small stream rushing, the eye-catching red tassels on the helmets of the cavalry had been removed, plus the imperial black armor on the body, if it were not for the lightning overhead, in the vast rain curtain, it would not be as if the whole team was hidden in the darkness, completely integrated with the surrounding mountains and nights, and the weapons in their hands were except for the imperial crossbow that had been opened。 The big shields and flails used in melee combat, thousands of heavy infantry armor stepped away, and suddenly there was a sound of armor colliding, but in such rain, it was more like the sound of the mountain wind and rain,

Thousands of people pounced on both sides of the narrow mountain road in front of them, spreading forward along the mountain road, as if the wings were stretched forward, "My lord, will the other party really do such a thing?" was promoted to deputy commander. Kenneth, the former commander of the Third Banner of the Guards Legion, came up from behind, looking at the Imperial troops poured in one after another, and his eyes revealed a trace of confusion: "Fei San has reached such a situation, do you really dare to risk an ambush, you must know that even if you really succeed, the bloody counterattack of the 100,000 Imperial Army will be a catastrophe for the King Fei Shan, who has no power to resist! Unless the other party is crazy, he will not do such a thing!"

Varisien glanced at him. The corners of his mouth suddenly grinned, and instead of answering him, he asked with a sneer, "Kenneth, do you know why Your Majesty made you my deputy commander?" "This...... I don't know!" Kenneth froze. After being asked, he also thought about this question, and at first thought that as the head of the elite banner of the Guards Legion, it was enough to serve as the deputy commander of a legion that was not directly under His Majesty. However, as the emperor's henchman, Varisien's legion is also considered to be the most powerful in the empire, and bears the burden of suppressing Fessan and Central European Barrow. Whether it is combat effectiveness or weaponry, it is not much worse than the Imperial Guard, it is definitely the main army of the first line, as such a deputy commander, he is definitely promoted, the imperial generals are star-studded, and there are many people with outstanding achievements, if you really want to talk about qualifications, you have to be the deputy commander of the first-line army, and you will have to stay up for at least three to five years

"You and I have both experienced the battle of Bavaried, this should be your Majesty's intention" Varisian looked solemnly at the calm mountain road in front of him, revealing heavy murderous intent,

"The Battle of Bavaried?" Kenneth looked dazed, "The Battle of Bavaried, 300,000 Fesan troops, not one of them was killed, you still don't know Your Majesty's intentions?"

Varisian withdrew his gaze from a distance, and snorted incitingly, "Although it is said outside that His Majesty is killing Ruma, but it is the first time that His Majesty has given such a cruel order, it is not 350,000 people, but a full 300,000 people, with the brand of Bavaried, you and I are murderers in the eyes of the Faisans, so this is convenient for you and me to do things, we can have no scruples, and we can even take any means! There is only one goal, that is, to swallow Fessan!" What you mean is that even if we kill rivers of blood, we will ......."

Kenneth stopped abruptly in surprise, not daring to continue, the tragedy of the Battle of Bavaried, the scene of the countless corpses of the Fishan army piled up dozens of miles of ice ditches, the Imperial army fought so many battles, with the Battle of Bavaried being the heaviest, so that the two people who participated in the battle are still fresh in their memories, "I used to plan like this! If it weren't for the change, it would not be these thousand cavalry who entered the mountain road at this moment, but the soldiers of the 100,000 army of the empire!" Varisien shrugged his shoulders and said without hesitation, he now has an army of 100,000 to guard Fesan and deter Central Obarro, this glory is no longer inferior to the status of the five bigwigs of the empire, as the emperor's henchman, Varisian's temperament is actually seven or eight points similar to the emperor, how can he not know the emperor's attention to Feishan's connection point between East and West Obarro, this is the gate to the east, and it is also the bridgehead of the western frontier of the empire, and the slightest mistake must not be allowed, and it is absolutely necessary to firmly hold Feisan in his hands, not to mention the existence of King Feishan, for the empire, it is like a fish in the throat, as long as it is stuck here, the 100,000 troops of the empire will be crucified

The empire didn't have much time to grind in Feshan, the 100,000 imperial army had been stationed for a long time, and the logistical pressure on the empire was no less than the battle of the imperial expedition to the steppe, which ended in winter, and the emperor's previous order was to ask Varisien to completely solve the problem of Fei San's tail within ten days,

Varisian deliberately left his army behind, and came to the royal capital of Fishan with such fanfare, and the route he took was the dangerous Ula Mountain Road, all he asked for was the other party's shot, as long as the other party made a move, the empire could enter the royal capital of Fishan, give the final blow to the kingdom of Fishan, and make it a historical term

Both sides are calculating, both are calculating the other party's arrangement, according to the intelligence, the nobles of the king of Fei Shan have gathered a private army of no less than 5,000 people, it can be imagined that behind this darkness, how many pairs of eyes are eagerly antinating, the sky is raining heavily, and there is no road at night. The ground is muddy, don't say that horses go, even people are very difficult to walk, it's really the right time and place, it's strange if King Fei Shan doesn't react at all, as long as he passes here, King Fei Shan will no longer have the possibility of ambushing, how can the other party fight it,

Hope don't let me down, or not. I really can't find an excuse to swallow the last area of Feishan in the royal capital of Feishan,

Varisien's voice paused, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he said in a cold voice, "Actually, even if the other party is not ambushed here, I will let the other party ambush! The empire wants to annex Fessan, there is no excuse, so it is better to create an excuse." I'm not afraid of you saying it, I was going to plant it, but I didn't expect that the other party would send it by myself!" The thunder-shaking wind and rain also seemed to pause because of these words, and it became even more fierce,

In the dark. On the mountain road with a slope of more than 30 degrees, a side road has been built out of logs, and the two ends of the logs have been built. Hold it in place with a riding spike deep into the mud. On this sidewalk, more than a dozen piles of stones were covered with nets, facing the mountain road below, Loire stood on a high place and looked down, his brows were tightly locked, didn't he say that the butcher was going to pass by here tonight? Why did it get to the second half of the night, there was still no movement at all, except for him, the other more than 60 people were also covered in mud, resting back to back under a huge rock that had protruded in, everyone was heavily armoured, and some of them were even covered with two layers. The blades are also heavy, and as long as the target is not crushed to death, even if it rushes down, the target will be destroyed.

"How's the outpost going?"

A fierce twinkle flashed in Loire's eyes, and his gaze swept into the distance, perched on a large rock jutting out of the mountain. The line of sight is enough to see the road below at a glance, but tonight the rain is pervasive, even if it is dark twenty or thirty meters away, he sent a few people to arrange a position in front of a hundred meters, the time has passed, it seems that the target will not appear tonight, Loire turned around with some disappointment, at this time, a faint shout came from the direction of the outpost, "Huh?" Loire stopped with an excited expression, the target is coming! But soon, he sensed that something was wrong, in the wind and rain, there was no expected roar of iron hooves, was the goal to cross the mountain road on foot? absolutely impossible!

"Is it so?" Loire's face suddenly turned iron-blue, and he looked back suddenly, looking in the direction of the outpost again, his eyes burned like fire, staring at the black fiercely, his hand clenched the heavy sword, there was a layer of dark red blood stains on the heavy sword that could not be scrubbed, it was enough to make people frightened, the night gradually closed, and the rain hit his face coldly, and the darkness a hundred meters away finally changed, and the black shadow shook longingly, like a hideous monster in this direction, boom, a silver lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the scene below,

Even Loire couldn't help but gasp, only to see the direction of the dark whistle, countless figures moved, the black human armor and the night one, if it was not lightning, it would not be visible at all, several dark whistle corpses were inserted with arrow clusters of tail feathers, blood was flowing along the rain, dyeing the land scarlet, at this moment, there was still dirty blood slowly flowing in all directions, in the electric light, I saw a few rapid silver flashes, flying towards himself, Loire raised the shield in his hand, almost didn't think about it, so he hurriedly protected his body, the two crisp metal crash sounds, in the rainy night full of murderous intentions, Loire only felt that his right arm raising the shield was almost numb, such a huge impact, only the infantry crossbow used by the Imperial Army to penetrate heavy armor can do it, you don't need to look, Loire also knows what happened to him "Everyone hurry up, the Imperial Army is coming up!"

Loire's face turned pale, and he shouted loudly to his subordinates not far away, how could the target know that there was an ambush on the Ula Mountain Road? Isn't it only the Duke who knows about this plan? The nearby subordinates were in a hurry, lifting their weapons and gathering towards Loire, the scale of dozens of people, and the group of black soldiers rushing over on the opposite side seemed so weak, only in the face of these imperial heavy armor, will you know how big this pressure is, these imperial soldiers with black armor are like terrible demon gods emerging from the netherworld, the battle armor is sparkling, and the rain can't even make a splash on it, forming a surround layer by layer, "Kill, it's all death anyway!" Some people shouted, and more than a dozen figures rushed out,

"Papapa" bows and crossbows were all over the sky, and the imperial crossbow arrows of the triling-shaped blood trough pierced fiercely, and the people who rushed out didn't even see what it was, they were pierced head-on, and the blood stains that rushed to the sky spurted out like raindrops, and the particularly thickened heavy armor on the body couldn't resist the crossbow arrows piercing at such a close distance, and the screams came and went, stabbing everyone's eardrums fiercely, "Ah" With a scream of pain, the flesh and blood of an ambusher flew sideways, and he was shot by more than a dozen crossbow arrows at the same time, and his body knelt on the ground, and the viscous human blood flowed down the shaft of the fine iron arrow, and soon formed a pool of blood mixed with this minced meat, "Bastard, we have been betrayed!"

The icy rain hit the face. But it was dissipated by the hot breath exhaled from the mouth, and the smell of blood that rushed into the nose made the black look more like red, and the murderous Imperial soldiers had surrounded them, hundreds of crossbows were held up to this side, looking at the cold and sparkling arrows in the rain, and the corpses lying on the ground in the rain full of arrows, the people on the periphery were already frightened to squeeze inside, in the chaos, Loire heard some people in his subordinates scolding, some people were kneeling and begging for mercy, Loire's face was also a little hot, he actually found that he was scared, he had always thought that he had put life and death out of his mind, this time, when he really faced death, he was afraid, he didn't want to die,

I just crawled out of the mud, do I have to die here silently?

Although the predecessor was the Praetorian Guard of the Kingdom of Faisan, but after all, it is already in the past, more than half a year of turbulence and injustice, so that he is full of disappointment in the kingdom, and at the same time corrodes his courage as a soldier, not everyone can face death calmly, the slogan shouting, and the real face is two different things "My lord, the prey has been found!" At the same time, Varisian also got such a reward, his expression was shocked, and he laughed and said: I just said, how could the Faisan people let go of such an opportunity!" "What should I do next? Kill them all?" Kenneth asked

"Dead people can't speak, and they won't be evidence that we identify the royal capital of Fessan!" Varisien pouted with a gloomy face, and ordered, "Tell the front, those who surrender can not be killed, I don't believe it, there are not a few soft bones in it, and also tell those Fisan people that they will get benefits by cooperating with the Empire, but if anyone is smart, I will kill all his family and friends after capturing the royal capital of Fishan!"
