Volume 1 Once Upon a Time in the South Chapter 63 Bai Ze
Jiu Zhan frowned and looked at these Yafei cavalry who had entered his flank, and his face became more and more ugly.
The flank phalanx on the east side of Tingxiao was directly dispersed by these five thousand people. Even if some infantry on the outside took precautions, these Yafei royal iron horsemen rushed through the plains and came with a monstrous momentum, which was far from being able to be stopped by small tricks such as raising shields and fork guns.
Watching the snow-haired woman fly up from the horse, the silver staff swept away, and dozens of thunderbolts broke through the air, directly attacking the lives of the Tingxiao people's position. As soon as Jiu Zhan saw this woman's magical cultivation, and then observed her appearance, he had already roughly guessed that this was Princess Onian. Thanks to Forle, the prime minister of the Yafei Empire, he was able to understand these influential figures of the Yafei Empire like this. As for the man who was riding side by side with the princess, Jiu Zhan was a little unsure of this person's identity.
Seeing that another powerful Great Magus had been added to the opponent's array, Jiu Zhan's heart became more and more unsettled. After all, with the 5,000 cavalry brought by Onian, the difference in the number of soldiers between Yafei and Tingxiao is 10,000, plus these cavalry also launched a round of charge, Tingxiao's flanks were damaged, in fact, the number of fighters on both sides is about the same now.
With almost the same number of combatants, Ting Xiao still has to face all kinds of magic that keeps falling from the sky. For the generals who knew about the warplane, they could already perceive that Tingxiao's side was beginning to show defeat. Even if Jiu Zhan still had less than 20,000 reserve troops left in his own formation, it had no impact on the overall situation. Even if Jiu Zhan summoned all these people now and set up a position to play with Yafei's side, he would not be able to change his fate of being eaten and wiped clean by these Yafei court mages in the air.
As long as Master Pilo is alone, the mages of Tingxiao are just more than 2,000 stray flies flying around, and they are useless at all. On the other hand, on Yafei's side, the court mages could easily wreak havoc on the court people in all corners of the battlefield. This is the role of a master-level magician on the battlefield.
Even though Jiu Zhan knew that the top priority was to kill the old man who was over seventy years old, he had been restrained by Kelman and couldn't get out at all.
"It's all said that you don't want to be distracted, why don't you have a long memory?" Kelman sneered and slashed through Jiu Zhan's Seiko Iron Boots, leaving a long line of blood on the calf of the Marshal Tingxiao.
Jiu Zhan clenched his teeth and didn't exhale, he felt that the injured calf couldn't move, it should have hurt the hamstring. However, Kelman didn't even give him a chance to inspect his wounds, and Wangjun Jianfeng always approached his vital point. Where did Jiu Zhan dare to be careless, although he injured one leg and his body was inconvenient, he had to struggle to catch Kelman's sword moves.
King Yafei was fighting quite interestingly at this time, seemingly killing him, but in fact, he was aiming to attack Jiu Zhan's wounds. Jiu Zhan relied on one leg to support, so he had to stand in place and concentrate on receiving the move, although it was to block a few Kelman's killing moves, but he couldn't withstand the opponent's drunkard's drunken style of play.
At the head of the city of Yiling Bernard, Prince Ressa and Archbishop Herod were carefully watching the battle between the two.
"Looking at this way, I'm afraid this Marshal Tingxiao won't last long. Herod glanced at Ressa and said.
"It's pretty much the same. Could it be that he was expected to win this battle alone?" said Ressa.
Before he could finish speaking, a scream came from Jiu Zhan's place, because the wound on Jiu Zhan's calf was cut off by Kelman.
"Lessa, does what you say still count?" Jiu Zhan didn't care about the Wangjun stabbed behind him, and held his sword towards the city to the south, and the sound penetrated the Yafei reserve army where Count Ferry was located, and directly reached the ears of the prince.
"Heh, I'll just say this guy can't stand it. Prince Resa pursed the corners of his lips and said. Herod, who was beside him, smiled and nodded.
Seeing Jiu Zhan shouting like this, Kelman actually stopped his figure and couldn't help but stare at Yiling Burner Fort to the south.
Naturally, Count Philip also turned around and looked at Prince Resa at the head of the city.
Jiu Zhan's resounding sound in the sky also disturbed the people who were casting spells in the air, such as Master Pilo and Fei Timo.
Of course, the people of Ornian, Alvin, and Keba, who are in the middle of the fight, can also hear it clearly.
For a while, the big and small people on the battlefield all focused their eyes on the head of the city of mountains.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
As if he could not feel the gaze of these people, Prince Resa picked up a white gold lion's head banner with an ink background at the head of the city, and the fire burned along the flagpole he held, and in an instant, the entire flag was burned to ashes by Ressa's palm fire.
The prince looked coldly at King Kelman in the distance, raised his palm, and spilled the charred ash left in his palm.
Then, as if they had been rehearsed, the soldiers on the city wall uniformly threw the white gold lion head flag inserted in the pedestal from the city, and the brown gunfire flags fluttered on the head of the city of Yiling Burnaburg in an instant.
Prince Ressa has rebelled!
Prince Ressa has rebelled!
Prince Ressa has rebelled!
For a while, the morale of the army on Yafei's side was a little shaken, and from time to time, some soldiers turned back and looked at the south city during the battle.
Even though many people have expected such a situation, there is still a shock in their hearts when it really happens in front of their eyes.
People such as Kelman and Fei Li naturally expected this scene, but they actually always hoped that this scene would not happen, or that it would not be too late to happen after the decisive battle with the Tingxiao people was over. After all, no one wants to be attacked on the battlefield, especially if the enemy on the back is still Ressa's Maine elite. Of course, the political killing of Ressa is what Kelman is most happy to see.
Of course, keeping Ressa's tens of thousands of elites in Yiling Berner is also Kelman's meaning. He knew in his heart that if he scattered these tens of thousands of people, it would only be more dangerous. Because he is well aware of Ressa's influence on the elite of Maine, even if these tens of thousands of people are torn apart, Ressa can quickly bring them together. At that time, Ressa took advantage of the decisive battle and led people to kill him by surprise, and the situation was even more critical. Now we are fighting a prepared battle.
Fei Lie also asked Kelman why he didn't send Resa to fight against the Tingxiao people, and the 100,000 troops from Salyushi only had to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight in Yiling Bernerburg. Kelman felt that it was impossible, firstly, Yuan Kang and these people would not be willing to watch Ressa snatch military merits, and they would definitely speak out to obstruct him; second, he always felt that according to Ressa's scheming nature, he would inevitably get in touch with Jiu Zhan privately after returning to Maine. So even if Ressa is sent to lead the army to fight, it will be a fake fight for show, and it will have no practical meaning. However, more than 100,000 troops were stranded on the front line, and the delay was bound to change over time.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jiu Zhan, who was still embarrassed and miserable, turned around and looked at Kelman with a smile at this time, and the corners of his mouth showed endless mockery. Obviously, seeing Resa's actions, Marshal Tingxiao felt that the injuries on his legs were not so painful.
"Heh, traitor and thief, finally show your true colors!" Kelman scolded as he looked south, but he didn't see a hint of panic on his face.
"Rear army on alert!" Count Philip reacted very quickly, immediately turned his horse's head and roared loudly. The 30,000 reserve troops behind him did not look frightened, their pace was uniform, and in the blink of an eye, they had all turned around, and their blades were facing south.
Resa looked at the 30,000 horses not far to the north, and the white light in his hand was already held high, and a tsunami-like roar erupted from the Yiling Burner Fort behind him.
"Roar, roar, roar!"
"Ressa, Ressa, Ressa!"
Obviously, these 60,000 Maine elites have been waiting quite anxiously, and they have been hearing the shouts and killings outside the city, and now it is finally their turn to play. These Maine sergeants were loyal only to Prince Ressa, and not to King Salyushilai. In other words, the generals of the Maine army wished that the prince had rebelled earlier, and then there would be higher positions waiting for them to be promoted.
The cold wind blows, the war drums beat, and the bones are piled up outside the mountain city.
The gates of Fort Berna opened again, and the blue-clad Maine Iron Cavalry swayed out of the city, heading straight for the 30,000 horses of Count Philip to the north.
"What are you proud of? I'll kill you first! I'll clean up Ressa later. Kelman was the first to come back to his senses, his face turned grim, and he stabbed Jiu Zhan in the heart with a sword. I have to say that in the face of such a change, the king of the Yafei Empire is still very sober. He knew that at this time, as long as he killed the commander of the Tingxiao army first, he would be able to control the situation on the battlefield, and it would be the best strategy to turn around and deal with the rebels after defeating these tens of thousands of Tingxiao people.
Jiu Zhanshi was a little carried away, and he didn't react for a while, seeing that the tip of Wangjun's golden sword was less than two feet away from his heart, and it was too late to draw his sword to resist. He sighed in his heart, "It seems that I have to die today." ”
However, there was a crisp sound of "ding", and a white mang roared, and he bumped into Wangjun who was about to break in.
A sword flies thousands of miles in the sky, and there are no two ministers in the world.
Then a figure strode down from the top of the city, heading straight for Kelman.
"Ressa, you're going to betray me after all. Kelman retracted his sword momentum and said coldly at the flying figure.
"Your Majesty, when you were in Salyushi, you didn't want the old minister to return to Maine alive. Ressa's palm was spread, and Bai Ze had already returned to his master's hands.
