1677 Assault on Gangfei (4)

The army marched forward, the falcon battle flag with gold thread strokes rattled in the night wind, the Imperial Central Army from the Ruilin Fortress marched towards the border of the Gangfei Empire, in the dark night, the horses' hooves rumbled from far and near, under the escort of hundreds of murderous black-armored guards, the fat man's war horse galloped up a slope, the wind blew the black hair, the boundless earth stretched into the distance under his feet, and the gorgeous Milky Way crossed the night sky, like a huge eye, silently watching the army marching below

"King Khan!"

The three Dongting Wan cavalry commanders were already standing at the top of the hill, looking at the oncoming fat man, and immediately squatted down with a respectful face and wore heavy armor to salute the fat man, behind them, the hooves of the Dongting grassland cavalry turned up the clods on the ground, and slowly passed from the flank of the army.

The three-star flag of the moon and the falcon battle flag of the people of the East Courtyard reflected each other, and the torches discharged several parallel long dragons under the huge black canopy, and the fire shone on the black armor of the cavalry, revealing the red light of blood.

"Wood, hard work!"

The fat man's war horse stopped at the top of the hill, dressed in black spiked demon king armor, scattered domineeringly, bringing the three Dongting Wancai commanders an urge to worship, his sharp sword-like gaze was focused on the Wumu in the middle of the three Wancai captains, the only remaining general of the former Dongting Empire, wearing the leather jacket and helmet of the Dongting people on his head, and wearing the black armor with the shoulder shape of a wolf's head, half-kneeling there, still revealing a sense of stability like an iron tower, at a glance, it is the kind of steel that has been tempered for thousands of years, and he is the best general in the grassland." What a tough guy!"

The fat man sighed secretly on his horse, and withdrew his gaze from the wood,

This time, Rui Tang Tingna did not come, but sent the Wu Mu, who had the strongest awareness of the former Dongting in his heart, and he could guess a few points of the intention, the steppe cavalry sent last time stepped on the northwest coast with his horse. In just one month, he swept thousands of miles away, not only made a great reputation, but also made a lot of money, and when he went back, he expressed his allegiance to himself.

The fat man knows too well the mentality of the steppe people, who worship the strong by nature, chase glory, desire wealth, and follow the battle banner of the powerful Khan to conquer the Quartet. Let his prestige spread far away, let the tribe be rich and rich, and the cattle and sheep everywhere, this is the dream of all steppe warriors, not to mention that this Khan King is also the god of war on the mainland,

Rui Tang Tingna took advantage of her own double tree of the Khan King and the Empire to gather tribes in the chaos of the Eastern Court, expanding rapidly, and her power became stronger and stronger. But it also suffers a lot of backlash,

Although she is the titular princess of the East Court, in fact, this woman with a strong heart is also very clear that she has hundreds of thousands of tribes under her command. seems to be obedient to his words, but in fact, what he is following is not the Dongting Kingdom that has disappeared like a meteor, but the unification of the eastern and western grasslands. Hundreds of thousands of elite warlords under his command are like the Falcon Khan King in the sky,

In front of this undefeated imperial god of war, choosing to surrender is the general trend. From the humid and mild islands in the south to the dry and cracked cold in the north, thousands of miles of territory, four-fifths of the continent, fluttering the battle flag of the empire, the Falcon Empire has become the de facto controller of this continent,

Even the former northern grassland, at this moment, is just a strong independent province within the empire, in the face of the irresistible strength, like the grass in the wind, the grassland people have never lacked forbearance, Rui Tang Tingna's resilience is even more terrifying,

The survival of the fittest, the survival of the grassland people for thousands of years has long been integrated into the blood of this Dongting royal family.

The Imperial Military Department once again mobilized the cavalry of the Eastern Court to participate in the battle, with the wisdom of Rui Tang Tingna, how could she not know that in order to weaken her wings and influence, she sent the most loyal Wumu army to the former Eastern Garden, undoubtedly to avoid the situation like before, if it was like before, the tens of thousands of elites who had been accumulated with great difficulty made wedding dresses for others, this eldest princess would vomit blood.

"Don't dare, it's an honor for me to be able to serve the King of Khan!"

Wu Mu, the general of the Eastern Court who was called by name, trembled slightly, his face turned slightly pale, he didn't dare to meet the eyes of the fat man looking at him, and lowered his head nervously, as the former general of the Eastern Garden, he knew too well the power of the mediocre-looking Falcon Khan King in front of him, don't look at the Dongting Iron Cavalry across the grassland, even the original mainland overlord Rui Erdian did not dare to confront it, but in front of this Falcon Khan King, the powerful 100,000 Eastern Court Iron Cavalry was also difficult to resist the fate of the fall, "Okay, don't say polite words!" My promise is one gold coin per head, in addition to the 60,000 gold coins that should be paid, each 10,000 people riding commander, I personally give another 10,000 gold coins, which has been shipped to your camp tent" The fat man got off his horse, smiled and personally lifted the tower-like vultures with his hands, "......Your Majesty!

Wu Mu raised his head with an ugly face, and the eyes of the other two ten thousand horse commanders flashed, but when they saw that Wu Mu didn't make a sound, he didn't dare to speak, 10,000 gold coins, if you want to say that you are not tempted, it is false, in the bitter cold land of the Dongting Grassland, even if you are the leader, you often need to take care of the clan first, and your own personal wealth and its limited, "I am the Khan King, do you have to refuse the Khan's reward?"

The fat man smiled, patted Wu Mu's shoulder heavily, his eyes suddenly appeared, as sharp as frost, and Wu Mu, the experienced Dongting general, also felt a cold air rushing to the top of his head, "Don't dare! I'm just a little ashamed, in fact, we haven't done anything!

Wu Mu noticed his gaffe, and quickly lowered his head, the wind blew over the shoulders of the Eastern Court general, looking a little sluggish, his eyes were full of complexity, beads of sweat climbed up his forehead, even in the cold night of August, Wu Mu felt that his back was wet with sweat

He still remembers the tragedy of the battle of Motu, the cavalry cluster of this god of war, showing the combat power of the orthodox steppe cavalry, defeated the Dongting Iron Cavalry head-on, like a mythical huge ice city, like a giant palm falling from the sky, directly crushing Motu, known as the "City of Never Falling",

In the post-Dongting era, the eastern and western armies that intended to fight against the empire were overturned by their own hands and collapsed directly.

To this day, no one dares to raise his head in front of this person in the steppe full of heroes, and it is really the power of this Khan King that all the steppe people cannot afford to fight. This prophesied immortal walker on the land, his incomparable prestige made all the grassland heroes feel ashamed,

No matter how dissatisfied he was in his heart, Wu Mu also knew that he and the other party were not at all the same level of existence, the imperial military god who ended the five hundred years of turmoil, the greatest Khan king of the Eastern and Western Grasslands, these names were not just as simple as glory, they were the power to kill and seize millions of grassland people, and they were the army that could make the grasslands full of blood. Fighting against it is like fighting against the Immortals!

"Killed 60,000 people in one go, if this is called nothing to do, then what do you want to do?" The fat man also felt that the atmosphere was a little too heavy, snorted, raised the horsewhip in his hand in a half-joking tone, pointed to the direction of the army and said, "The first 20 miles is Alencia on the border between Gangnon, you are in the mood to go hunting"

"What does 陛xià mean?"

Wu Mu looked strange for a moment, and the other two ten thousand cavalry commanders also showed interested expressions, and the private wealth of 10,000 gold coins undoubtedly moved them. Although his heart has not completely leaned towards the Falcon Majesty, at least no one will think that there is anything wrong with serving the Falcon, and worshipping the strong is something in the blood of the Prairie people. What's more, it is the mighty Khan King Xià

"The night is boring, in order to pass the time, how about I make a bet with you!"

The fat man stared at the horizon in the darkness in the distance with flickering eyes, and said slowly, "The main force of the Gangfei border guards has been defeated by me. The entire border was already defenseless, so we took the sun rising on the third day as the time limit for a hunting game. Whoever can obtain the largest number of helmets from the non-border garrison officers within the specified time will be the winner!" The fat man's voice stopped, and his eyes confidently swept over the expression of even the woods who were concentrating, and said, "The winner Jiang received a reward of 100,000 gold coins, what do you think!" "100,000 gold coins!" In addition to the woods, the other two ten thousand cavalry commanders suddenly became excited

"Is Your Majesty going to an all-out war against Gangfei?" Wu Mu is worthy of being a talented army, he calmed down the shock in his heart, and asked with a stunned expression, he can smell a war-torn breath from this gambling contract, and he has been in Obaro for almost a month, and he has probably learned about the situation of Obaro, Gangfei is not a small country, but a powerful empire that has been fighting against northern Gaul for a hundred years, and His Majesty Falcon chose to go to war with two empires at the same time, which is obviously at a strategic disadvantage.

"I've killed a lot of people, and I don't care, you just need to sue me, just bet if you're willing to bet!" The fat man looked at the Umu with a smile, the kind of indifferent expression with a bit of evil spirit, and the indifferent expression that decided the fate of thousands of living beings between talking and laughing, suddenly made the Umu feel a lot of pressure, "This is the true face of the Imperial Military God! Any strong enemy is just a plaything that can be destroyed at any time!" Wu Mu trembled in his heart and hesitated, he wanted to refuse, but he knew that he didn't have such courage, so he could only squat down again with the two ten thousand cavalry commanders behind him, and his tone was a little convincing, "I am willing to fight for the Khan King!" "Okay, I'm here, I wish you a lot in advance!"

A smile appeared at the corner of the fat man's mouth, Rui Tangtingna, this woman is very good at calculations, but against an empire that is incomparably strong in both financial and military strength, what can that little bit belong to the cleverness of a little woman! Righteousness in hand, he is the Khan King of the grassland, the mantis arm blocks the car, and if he crushes it, he will be crushed, and it is a big deal to suffer a few reciprocal "squeezes" in bed That's it, it's just that Gangfei people may be unlucky, for the destructive ability of the Dongting cavalry, the fat man is too clear, if you let the 30,000 killing Dongting cavalry swing around the border of the Gangfei Empire, the Gangfei Emperor will have to jump to his feet!

In the early morning of the border, the white mist floats on the plains like flowing water, and the chill spreads in the wind.

In the distance, dozens of thatched roofs, in the middle is a palace that does not look majestic and tall, on the edge of the earth like a white edge, it looks like a mottled gray, in the vast boundary, it is only an inconspicuous little spot, only the pointed top looms in the white mist that has not completely dissipated, the sheepfold of the shepherd, the fishing net docked by the river, covered with autumn yellow woods, the animals of the forest are awakened by a loud and scattered sound, and the soldiers of Gangfei in blue armor are all over the mountains

"It's the village of Brody on the border!"

A tired soldier looked at the scene in the distance, and suddenly became excited, Brody Village is just a very small village on the border, there are only a dozen families in the small area, and it is more than 20 miles away from the nearest city on the border. This is the hope of thousands of wounded soldiers, and the lives of General Ramia, in order to get rid of the burden and return to the border security zone with all his might, Ramia ordered to abandon all the seriously wounded soldiers of the Gangfei army, although the soldiers did not want to, but also knew that there was no way to do it, the cavalry with high mobility to chase them, if they continued to take the wounded soldiers on the road, the final result was to be all killed. One by one, the stretchers were put in place by the soldiers with ashamed faces,

"You can't do this! I'm going back, alive!"

"I'm going back, I'm going to see my son......"

"You can't give up on me, I don't have a wife yet!"

"Let's go, let's go, you're all going to die a bad death!" a wounded man wrapped in gauze wailed on a stretcher, scolding and finally turning into an unpleasant cry. Like a low curse in the dark night, the soldiers bowed their heads and silently walked forward past the stretcher. No one dares to look at the position of the wounded soldiers, I really can't stand it.

Ramia stopped in front of the stretcher of a wounded soldier whose right leg had been cut off. Because there was no medicine or bandages, only tattered clothes wrapped around the wounds, and bright red blood seeped through the fabric of the clothes. Revealing shocking bloodstains,

"If he can be healed, this soldier may be able to go back, it's a pity!" Ramia sighed inwardly, don't look away, "Your Excellency......" Lida, the captain of the personal guard, stopped beside him, as if he was hesitating to say something

"What's wrong?" Ranmia turned her head

"Some of the officers were dissatisfied with the decision to abandon the wounded soldiers, and refused to advance!They asked to see you," replied the captain of the guard, Lida, with an ugly face, "These guys!" Rumia's lips trembled, "My lord, look?" "Bring them here!" Rumia tidied up his messy collar, and in order to move forward lightly, most of them gave up their heavy armor and kept only the most basic weapons, and soon, the captain of the guard came over with more than a dozen non-officers, most of whom were young people, who were of the age of blood,

"You want to see me?" Lamia glanced at the officers with a calm face,

"Yes, my lord, isn't your Excellency afraid of the disgrace you have accumulated over the years? A chestnut-haired young officer came out of the crowd, he was handsome, with a high nose, but his face looked a little wolfy, whoever ran for a night like this, would look like this, Lamia knew this officer, Luxor, the leader of the fifth squadron of the 3rd Infantry Regiment, from the Luxor family, a military family, resolute, tenacious, never admitting defeat, a young man who was very appreciated by Rumia,

"That's it?" Ramia's face was grim, his eyes were like sharp swords, he swept over the angry young officers in front of him, and said slowly, "If it were just me, I would choose honor and give up my life, but in front of me are tens of thousands of young lives of the empire."

"When I made this decision, I knew that no matter what the outcome of this battle was, the name Ramia would be associated with unpleasant words such as defeat and abandonment of wounds, but in order for more people to survive, I, Ramia, must bear the due responsibility, this battle, the Imperial Border Guards killed and wounded more than 100,000 people, there are weapons reasons, there are also tactical misconduct, it has been a long time since there have been such tragic losses, it is because too many people have died, so I must bring the rest of the people back!

"As for reputation" Ranmia smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his voice stopped, "As long as I can bring you back, I will be discredited! I only hope that you can remember this fiasco, remember this hatred, if you choose to stop now, then the only result will be to make the sacrifice of my Lamia and all the wounded soldiers in vain!" "What do you mean by this, my lord?" Luxor's face changed when he heard this, and he hesitated for a moment. I tell you the truth, we can't get rid of the pursuit of the cavalry, even if we give up the wounded soldiers!" Ranmia said calmly, "There is only one way, the soldiers are divided into two ways, these discarded wounded soldiers will soon be discovered by the other party, and I, Ramia and his personal guard, as well as ten thousand soldiers, continue to advance in the direction of the border as a decoy for exposure, while the others divide into another team and go around the border in a southwestern direction, the commander of the other party is an experienced and old guy,

He knew that our ultimate goal was the border, and after discovering our whereabouts, he would definitely place his cavalry at the border to intercept us, which was the best place for ambushes, and after escaping for the night, the troops were completely exhausted, and with an easy blow, we would collapse on our own,

This is your chance, the enemy's ambush will only be once, they won't think that our soldiers will return in two ways!" "My lord......" Luxor was dumbfounded when he heard this, and the faces of the other officers were also full of shame, they didn't know that on the border line that they couldn't see, tens of thousands of Dongting cavalry who were ready to attack crossed the border like a tide, and the border line of Gangfei was soon a mountain of blood corpses "Okay, that's it, everyone, let's separate in front!" Ramia waved his hand to the young officer who was standing still, and his steps staggered ( To be continued ......)
