On the morning of November 6th, the rain poured down,

The fierce wind of the plains swept by the rain stars like brushes, as if looking for something on the ground, and the east and west were scurrying, and a shining red flash, like uncovering a black cloud, revealing a large cloud of blood,

The soldiers maintained their formation in the rain, but the commotion still appeared silently, as if sensing something, and someone in the front line muttered softly,

"Stomping" A stirring sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and several cavalrymen followed behind a cavalry general, galloping from the rolling hills in the southeast.

"Your Majesty, the people of Ruierdian have approached the Staros Fortress" Hukochili wiped the rain on his face with his hand, ignored the mud all over his body, turned down from the war horse beautifully, handed the reins of the war horse in his hand to the guards, and hurriedly ran up from more than 20 meters away,

The look on his face was both excited and worried, this time the opponent was a 300,000-strong Rui Erdian army, no matter how you look at it, it is not a very sure thing,

But this battle is destined to be written into the annals of history, this is any soldier who regards glory as his life, a lifetime of hopeful opportunities, victory or defeat is no longer important, to be able to experience this magnificent battle, is the most exciting thing, a battle is completed, and the country is destroyed, what a spirit!

"Are they all here?"

The fat man soothed the war horse under his crotch with his hand, his face looked a little absent-minded, and he didn't look back, as if he had already known the answer, and his eyes were still looking at the white rain curtain floating away with the wind in the air,

Like all the other soldiers, he did not even wear a rainproof cloak this time, and exposed himself to the eyes of tens of thousands of troops, standing under the falcon banner that belonged to the center of the legion.

The fat man looked up at the sky, and the big cold rain hit his face, sobering him up. He looked at his subordinates, and on the green grass at his feet, the 33,000 men of the Falcon Central Legion were scattered into a slightly untidy quadrangle,

There is no end in sight to the neatly arranged armor and bayonet guns. The rain soaked the helmet, and it flowed through the gaps in the cold helmet, flowing down the soldiers' resolute and upright posture.

No one made a sound, only the sound of the rain splashing on the iron pieces of the armor and the dense dripping sound,

Underneath the black iron helmet, were faces tanned by the scorching sun with rain, and eyes that were slightly gloomy from tiredness under the brim of the hat.

After running back and forth all night, with less than three hours of rest, even if the willpower is tenacious, the exhaustion of the body is always inevitable, but what the fat man sees is unwavering expectation, loyalty, trust, and enthusiasm.

The silent momentum of tens of thousands of troops was like a shiny sword that had been washed away in the pouring rain, and as long as they gave an order, they would immediately tear apart any target that stood in their way.

Ten minutes passed, twenty minutes passed,

The rain was still pouring down, time passed in silence, and the horses in the front row were kicking the ground restlessly, whispering twice, and even they were suppressed by the murderous aura that was born in the silence.

"Yes, all"

Hukochili's face was filled with excitement that could not be concealed, "The vanguard alone reached 80,000, and the troops that followed up were as many as 120,000, as His Majesty expected, in the face of absolute interests, any enemy can be turned into an ally, the Paraven side and the crusading army, secretly reached a unanimous decision to fight against our army, if it weren't for our early preparations, we took the six southern cities first, and built a defensive line in front of the opponent, I'm afraid that we wouldn't even know how to die"

"The striker alone is an army of 80,000 people, and he really wants to kill us at one time!" The fat man listened to the number reported by Hu Keqili, a cruel sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he sharply instructed, "Sue Sù Salon, you don't need to retain your strength, you must meet the head-on attack!"

The Ryordian people finally couldn't bear it anymore, and the rapid defeat of the Nord army undoubtedly stimulated the Ryordian, who had been waiting for an opportunity in the direction of Palaven, hoping to pick up the cheap Ryordian people from behind when the Falcon Dynasty and the Nords were both defeated.

Although there is no clear alliance with the Nords, the Nord army's northward march undoubtedly gives a glimmer of hope to the royal family of Raldian, which has been hoping to rise again,...,

For this reason, at the expense of the six southern cities, just to be able to lead the Falcon Army into a situation of confrontation with the Nords, if the Nords are defeated, the Paraven Plain will be completely reduced to an island surrounded by the Falcon Dynasty army,

The people of Ryordian finally couldn't wait, this was a gamble with the kingdom as a bet, there was only one chance to bet, a rare battle of the assembly unfolded in the Anse Valley in south-central Paraven,,

At noon, the rain turned into fine rain, and the relatively low-lying Staros Fortress was located in a swampy valley, which was muddy and difficult to walk because of the rain.

Rui Erdian's 80,000 forwards were delayed for more than an hour before they appeared in the white rain and fog.

The one-eyed dragon Salons stood at the head of the fortress of Staros, only to see the white rain in the distance surrounded by human heads. Thousands of troops and horses emerged from the mist, and the heads were densely packed and could not be counted. With the sound of loud commands, the neat infantry lined up, and the feet of thousands of soldiers were raised and landed at the same time, and the steps were uniform, and the distance they crossed was as neat as a ruler.

Knock, knock, knock!" With the rhythmic sound of neat footsteps, even the walls of the fortress of Anse trembled, the spears were like a forest, the armor on the soldiers of Ruierdian was white in the rain, and the oppressive force gathered by tens of thousands of people was coming,

On the flanks of the infantry phalanx, the cavalry advanced in a skirmish, and the cavalry group quickly crossed the infantry phalanx, rushing like a tide over the distance of 1,500 meters from the fortress, and the fortress was silent and did not react. Compared to the fanfare over there, there was a deathly silence here.

The unfathomable and mysterious feeling was stressful and even more frightening, and the cavalry who rushed ahead to be in charge of reconnaissance involuntarily stopped and stopped to watch.

The Captain of the Squadron used all their strength to shout, "Kill those who retreat from the battle, capture Starros, and reward each with a gold coin!"

Just then, he heard a strange "buzzing" sound.

"Attack!" a sly smile suddenly appeared on Salon's expressionless face, these Ryordians were so cute, didn't they know what a terrible existence a fortress with a large trebuchet like Starros meant in the hands of the Falcon army that was good at long-range attacks, at this moment, with the sound of the tight rope being cut, the violent whistling sound completely obscured the sound that it should have been

The sky suddenly darkened, and one hundred and thirty-five heavy repeating ballistae and fifteen thousand skilled crossbowmen were fired at the same time.

A large cluster of arrows swept away the color of the sky like a large black cloud.

In an instant, the dark clouds turned into raindrops again, and a waterfall of metal fell from the sky!

The powerful ballista steel arrows made the Rui Erdian army, which rushed to the front row, seem to have been punched head-on by an invisible giant.

After a few blows in this storm, the whole platoon of soldiers suddenly flew backwards for several meters, even more than ten meters, and their bodies in heavy infantry armor twisted into an unnatural posture in mid-air, flipping over and being shot into hedgehogs full of arrows.

The heavy ballista, powered by a powerful spring, was strong enough to pierce a shield at a distance of 300 meters, and fired twenty consecutive rounds of arrows in an instant.

With a roar of attack on fame and fortune, the entire Stroth city wall was like a volcano that suddenly erupted, and countless arrows covered the sky and the sun.

In this terrible metal storm, flesh and blood without armor and shield protection are as fragile as papier-mâché,

"Ah" The Ruierdian cavalry in the front row didn't even have time to shout "help", and even the men and horses were instantly smashed.

It was definitely the worst nightmare.

Screams, groans, blood, death, panicked men and horses trampling each other, horses' hooves, screaming, arrows raining like locusts,

And the shrill sound of arrows piercing through the air filled the entire space that could be heard by human ears, driving even the bravest warriors insane. Arrows everywhere! arrows!

In the midst of lightning and flint, as if suddenly struck by a violent lightning, the Ryerdian army in the forefront turned on their backs,

Soldiers sprayed blood and rose in the air, screaming and throwing dust from their horses. The body was pierced in an instant,

The arrows sent the second man flying with blood, and some people were even nailed to the ground.

Blood flowers bloom in mid-air. The soldiers screamed and cried, and you hit me and pushed me into a ball and trampled on each other;

Someone lay down to dodge, but the panicked war horse stepped on the back of the head, and the brains splashed. The cavalry kept falling,

The short, high-pitched terrible screams of the dying side, the rolling of the wounded horses on the ground, and the long neighing of the wounded warhorses.

Seeing this, the rear cavalry immediately became frightened, and some tried to turn the horse's head, but were immediately shot by the law enforcement team in the rear.

Under military orders, it is cold and ruthless

Rush! Rush! Even if you are the last one left, you will rush me!" the second prince, Harusquez, stood in the team of the Dudu Commander to personally supervise the battle, and he shouted hoarsely, his eyes were already full of bloodshots,

At the beginning, he was also cold-blooded on the walls of Parabun, so that the crusading army outside the city was useless several times, and under the cold-blooded military order, the second phalanx of 5,000 infantry blocked the shield in front of him, shouting and charging.

Listening to the voice of the captains of the Rebel Squadron, the shield bearers lined up in a row, raising the shields in their hands above their heads,

In the blink of an eye, a huge steel phalanx appeared.

The shields that covered the mountains reflected the dazzling sunlight like a large ribbon of snowy light.

10,000 infantry shouted and charged, and they bent down and rushed briskly from under the fortress.
