1330 The Dawn of the Empire (II)

"It's a shame!"

The soldiers of the Starshuil Legion couldn't bear to turn their faces, most of them were hard-boned, they joined the expeditionary force for only one purpose, and that was revenge, otherwise they wouldn't have followed closely behind Starshuil even if they knew that there was no hope, but now, their faces all looked crimson and ugly,

"Kyoto is over!"

This time, everyone's eyes contained complexity and despair, that is, the eyes that had just gained hope from despair, and then were thrown into the pit of despair, there was no one on the city wall to gnaw, not even the most basic whispers, because no one would still be lucky with Kyoto, hundreds of flags with various squadrons of the expeditionary force, almost all of them were in front of them,

In front of these military flags, several top officials in Kyoto were tied up and kneeling on the ground, and behind them was a row of strong men about two meters tall, holding axes like door panels, as if they wanted to be executed in person

At the front is the cloaked Enright, the second person in the expeditionary force, famous for his radical language in the past, and also liberated tens of thousands of Salander people, is the idol of many expeditionary soldiers, and is affectionately known as the "Morning Star" This is a very high title of Salander, and is generally only given to the kind of hero who can bring everyone victory on the battlefield

But now, this "Rising Star" did not see the slightest hero-related thing on him, he struggled to stand up in fear, his pale face was completely bloodless, and his hoarse voice drifted in the wind, like a slap in the face of an expeditionary force soldier on Truburg

"What a wreck!" a soldier spat at the ground in anger, and Starshuil's eyes were bloodshot, and his lungs were about to explode when he looked at the city walls.

"This incompetent coward, why didn't I see it!" If it weren't for the fact that he was held back by his subordinates behind him. He will definitely rush out without hesitation and solve this thing that has made the entire expeditionary force lose face with one arrow,

Until his subordinates said that the distance had reached 200 meters, even with a bow and arrow, it was beyond the range, and if he rushed out alone, he would fall into an ambush of the Imperial army, and Starschuil immediately ran to the catapult, convinced that he would be able to smash the entire scum into scum with the catapult on the city wall. The landing point of the live bomb was 30 meters away from Enright, except for hitting a few grass stalks that had just emerged from the ground, there was only a cloud of dust.

This aroused the vigilance of the Imperial Army, and immediately rushed out several Guards cavalry from Kugit, who accurately threw ropes and dragged several generals of the expeditionary force and Enright to a distance of 300 meters, so that the farce could be temporarily stopped.

Looking at the few small black dots that were pulled away by the war horse, Starschuil's eyes flashed imperceptibly with a sigh of relief, "Kyoto is really over!"

Starshuil pretended to be indignant, but in fact, his heart was sinking, and a sense of dazed loneliness hung over him. The last ray of hope of the expeditionary force overwhelmed him, and what was in front of him was a dead end.

If you don't show Xiàn like that excitement and exaggeration just now. Once the troops have lost the most basic will support

No one can guarantee that the army of 20,000 will not collapse on its own in front of this desperate crying news, and he needs to use out-of-character behavior to divert everyone's attention. Let all the soldiers see that they are not yet broken, they are still fighting, the soul of an army comes from the officer who leads the team, and Starshuil belongs to such an excellent officer

The night is like ink, there is no moonlight tonight, on the Guangping in front of Truburg, at this moment it is lit by hundreds of braziers erected as if it were day, the red flame is in the cold night, blown by the whistling wind and sparks are blowing out, Enright and several expeditionary generals were pushed up again, this time, even the Vekia Falcon in black armor also appeared, even in the dark night, the spears of the imperial army lined up in a long queue still shone with a light that makes people's hearts tremble, under the reflection of the torches, like a large forest dyed red, how many people are there!

Starshuil seemed to sense something, but very quickly, his eyes were attracted by Enright who appeared in the distance, this guy who had disgraced the entire expeditionary force, at this moment like a big dumpling, was tied to a large wooden frame erected on the carriage, and a whole row of black cavalry guarded on both sides of the carriage, neatly came out of the barracks opposite, and slowly came in the direction of Truburg,

The strong murderous aura even made the night seem cold a few degrees, and the wheels made a stopping sound, which seemed so harsh when both sides held their breath, and the expeditionary force on the city wall looked at the carriage stopped three hundred meters away, "The firing squad is ready! Ten, nine, eight......"

As an Imperial officer on the left side of the wooden carriage raised his hand, a group of infantry with infantry crossbows came out of the back of the queue, the soldiers straightened their bodies in the command, turned neatly, and then raised their infantry crossbows at Enright on the wooden frame,

As long as the count reaches zero, Enright on the wooden frame will be shot into a hedgehog in an instant, Enright on the wooden frame is obviously gagged, in the countdown, he struggles violently on the wooden frame, and his mouth makes a whining sound, "Slow!" An officer in black armor ran over from a distance and interrupted the officer's counting, "Your Majesty has an order, Enright is one of the leaders of the Northern Alliance after all, and for the sake of his identity, he is allowed to count with ten consecutive beads!" "Ten consecutive beads?"

The officer's words were full of anger, even from 200 meters away, Starshuyl heard it, and just when his heart was full of confusion and everyone's breath was holding their breath, a violent fireball rose into the sky with an explosion, and even the whole land and Truburg lit up, "Damn!"

The expeditionary force on the city wall was startled by such an inexplicable sight, and hid behind the battlements, and after a while, they dared to show their heads, watching the fireball that rose into the air suddenly turn into a dazzling light and want to disperse around,

touch, another fireball rose into the air, this time, it was no longer as out of shape as just now, but whispered about how the other party's fireball burst in the air, there was no suspense, the second fireball was the same as the first one, it was just beautiful

Starshuil held the battlements with both hands, watching the third fireball rise into the air, but there was a trace of hesitation and uneasiness in his heart, at the position of the city gate that he couldn't see, a group of black shadows were also illuminated by the flashing light of the fireball, like a tiger, quickly rushed into the guard room with only a few people, when a black shadow dressed in sackcloth came out with the bloody short sword in his hand, the lifting bar of the gate of Truburg had been opened by other companions, "Touch, touch!" The sixth fireball rose into the air, and the defenders on the city wall could already comment leisurely on which fireball was bigger.

Slowly, Starshuil's eyes suddenly paused on the fireball in the air, how could it be two voices? He quickly turned his head, only to see a fireball that was not very big, rising from the inside of the fortress, crackling, the firelight exploded, illuminating the sky "Watch out for enemy attacks!"

Starshuil's body trembled and he felt a chill all over his body, and just as he drew his sword and commanded loudly,

The foothills of the city wall trembled faintly, and in the darkness in the distance,

Countless black cavalry, as if melted into the darkness, struck like a tide towards the location of the Truburg gate (to be continued. )
