Chapter 131: Old and New Confrontation (1)
After a friendly exchange last night, early the next morning, the coalition forces and the garrison began to prepare for battle, and the garrison troops maintained great combat confidence, while although the coalition forces also maintained their combat confidence, because of last night's incident, there was a gap between their own leaders.
However, in general, the coalition forces are still available.
The entire battlefield is 100,000 men on both sides, and the battlefield is somewhat similar to a chessboard, with the armies of both sides fighting on the flat ground in the middle, and two high hillsides behind it, allowing the commander to observe the entire battlefield at a glance.
At this time, after a short rest after breakfast, the two armies began to leave the camp and set up formations outside, ready to start fighting, while the commanders of the two sides looked at each other on the hillside behind them, and at the same time secretly compared in their hearts.
"My lord, although there are many coalition forces on the other side, they are just chickens and dogs in my opinion, looking at their array, it's a mess!"
Frank looked at the army under his feet with pride, to say that the entire garrison is the most eager to kill all the nobles of the White City, except for Frank, there may not be anyone who can rank first, when he learned that De Cress actually brought 70,000 allied troops from the three realms to attack the garrison, Frank was not worried but happy, in Frank's opinion, if the White City wants to eliminate the garrison, if it does not mobilize more than 120,000, there is no hope at all, and it is true, Lelouch even only mobilized an army of 30,000 people to dare to attack the White City noble coalition army head-on。
Hearing Frank's words, Lelouch shook his head with a little pity:
"These people who are fighting and dying are all the children of our human race, if these 100,000 people under our feet can defend themselves against foreign enemies together, even if Mordor comes next time, what do we have to fear?"
Lelouch's idea is not pretentious, after all, in Lelouxiu's view, the entire human race will be his own people in the future, and killing these people now is equivalent to killing his own people, naturally there are some unwilling, but the generals don't think so, veteran generals like Libert will still be ideologically consistent with Lelouxiu, and those emerging military aristocrats are represented by Frank, and there is only the god son Lelouch in his eyes, how can there be Emperor Baicheng'er?
The head on the opposite side is the military industry on his body, and the strong orcs can still fight, can't these miscellaneous aristocratic coalition still fight?
And on the other side.
"Grand Duke, this is really a majestic army, a mighty army!"
A nobleman who came to the east saw the grand occasion of the huge army under his feet, and said happily, the biggest motivation for the aristocratic alliance to attack Lelouch is the eye-catching harvest, almost everyone wants to take the huge material for themselves, instead of continuing to let Lelouch give it to the mud legs so stupidly, the mud legs can't starve to death, why eat so well? It is better to give us naturally noble nobles, although we can't eat it ourselves, but it is always good to exchange it for money.
Wealth is the fundamental reason for the alliance of the aristocracy.
Decrees knew this very well, but although Decrees was also slightly blushing at the output of the garrison, compared to his family's hundred-year plan, Decrees could still endure this little material.
The 70,000-strong army continued to march to the battlefield, they left the camp one by one, and began to set up at the foot of the hillside, the officer's yelling and leather whip made them barely maintain a phalanx, at this time on the battlefield, the army phalanx of the aristocratic alliance was lined up one after another, and the picture looked like the most magnificent epic from the air.
The goshawk, soaring in the sky, the wings that flutter their arms and fly high fanned the restless wind, and the eagle was melodious and high.
The ground under the feet is a shocking footstep, a phalanx is constantly superimposed together, forming a more huge phalanx, the soldiers are holding spears next to each other, the spears are as compact as a dense forest, flying from which phalanx, the dense soldiers seem to be boundless, the spears are fanning, the sword is shielding, the soldiers are full of tacit understanding to let their footsteps step on a drumbeat, this shock, enough to burn each strand of passionate blood.
The nobles of the aristocratic alliance looked at the scene under their feet excitedly, this level of shock is so attractive and tempting to the nobles who yearn for romance and glory, even De Cress also dispelled the slightest regret and hesitation in his heart, still with how well you eat, in front of my army of 70,000, everything will turn into smoke.
The heritage of the human race, in fact, is still very strong, when Lelouch saw this Decres only one realm and organized the coalition army, he knew that the fundamental reason for the weakening of the human race was not to disintegrate the suppression of the demon capital, but to internal disunity, if these 70,000 people did not appear in front of him, but appeared before Mordor under the White City back then, maybe the tens of thousands of residents of the White City who were driven to attack the city would not have died.
For some reason, Lu Luxiu suddenly remembered that when he was cleaning the battlefield under the White City, those scattered children's bodies, war was undoubtedly romantic for people who did not know military affairs~
"Now let me beat the snare drum too, and let the coalition forces on the other side see the majesty of my Horn Fort boy!"
Lelouch, who was riding on a horse, raised his right hand and roared out these words majestically, and a strong wind blew, bringing his cloak, and the silver armor was heroic and charming.
"Column~Array~!Advance~Army~!"
Frank left his horse and walked to the front of the line with the red dragon banner representing Lelouch, and behind him, the slow but powerful rhythm of the snare drum rumbled.
Accompanied by the snare drum, there are terrifying footsteps, and when 30,000 soldiers in steel frames step on a single sound, even the earth will tremble!
When this huge red dragon flag appeared on the horizon, the morale of the coalition army, which was shocked by its own numbers, gasped, and the perspective was very far away from Frank holding a huge banner, and the aesthetics of war reached its peak at the moment of distance.
A phalanx, a huge phalanx, a huge steel array composed of 30,000 male divisions, rolled forward.
The dense forest of super-long spears pointed straight into the sky, the soldiers were silent and resolute, looking along the human wall, the end of the phalanx was almost invisible, the snare drums and footsteps formed a different rhythm at this time, the flags used to distinguish the queue were waved in the sea of people, and the roar of unity every ten steps broke the courage of any enemy who dared to face his own side.
The knight whizzed past the sides of the queue on his horse, the banner on the cavalry spear was so dazzling, the regular military shields on both sides formed a steel wall, and the war spear exuded a cold light, bringing endless chill.
"I'm a god army!"
"We will win! We will win! We will win!"
"I'm a god army!"
"Mighty, mighty, mighty!"
"Phew!"
The slogan that shook the heavens and the earth, so that the leaves in the distance seemed to be unable to withstand the high-spirited killing intent, falling down, what a magnificent scene, Lelouch stood behind the army, the sun on the hillside was like getting the instructions of heaven, gathered beside him, the light reflected by the silver steel frame, so that he really thought that the gods had descended to the world, looking at the marching army, Lelouxiu, who was already enthusiastic, pulled out his long sword, and the smooth sword surface also reflected the light, like a lightsaber, bringing a different kind of beauty.
"Stop!"
"Array up to meet the enemy!"
The heralds instructed by Lelouch conveyed the will of the supreme leader, and the 30,000 army was like a man, and at the same time stopped his steps, and their uniform movements made the last trampling even echo on the land.
Looking at the garrison army that stopped, everyone thought that the shock would end here, but it was not enough, far from enough.
When Frank asked the army to stop, he suddenly raised his military flag and danced left and right in the sky, with the dance of the banner, the large array in the rear seemed to be ordered to spread and began to spread, marching consistently to avoid cavalry surprise attacks, but after stopping, it was necessary to have a flexible army arrangement.
Great array, start splitting!
From which point of view, countless officers turned behind them with the flags, and began to give orders to the soldiers behind them, and the soldiers of the countless small phalanxes turned in unison, like a piece of tight tofu, expanded, and the phalanx was so much that it once again showed the vast military appearance, the phalanx cracked, and a small number of knights passed through the open space in the middle, and they blew the horn over and over again, bringing orders for combat preparations, and when the last queue was completed and dispersed, and turned neatly to face the coalition army, the sound of spears and footsteps touching the earth was finally like the last war drum, beating on the hearts of the coalition soldiers!
Silence, complete silence, there was no sound on the battlefield except for the whirring of strong winds blowing banners, and the soldiers of the coalition army, the nobles of the coalition army finally recovered from the shocking march in the garrison, but then, it was the hands and feet that became cold.
The nobles were timid, the soldiers were in a commotion.
"Son of God, really Son of God, we are actually fighting against the Son of Heaven!"
"Did you see that? He's just glowing!"
"God, it must be God, only God can carry such a dazzling divine light!"
Where were the soldiers frightened by the shocking military countenance, where did their mentality fluctuate and quickly find a reason for their timidity, and what could be more unjustifiable than against the Son of God?
The same scene is a blow and a warning in the eyes of the coalition army, but in the eyes of the garrison, it is God's blessing and encouragement to itself, the momentum of the coalition army depends on the number of people, and the momentum of the garrison depends on the appearance of the army.
And only Lelou Xiu smiled with satisfaction with Wang Zifeng afterwards, which can be regarded as a slight encouragement, not to mention anything else, the church's ability to pretend to be a ghost should be the first in the whole of Middle-earth, the magic of Middle-earth is not strong, and the most powerful thing is just to encourage the fighting spirit of the soldiers on a large scale, if it is a single battle, in Al's words, the most powerful mage in history was beheaded by a sword in a head-to-head battle with ten church trial knights, and the trial knights only paid three lives.
If you want to say that magic is the most powerful and lethal, it may be to use the wind to blow the clouds and bring dense thundershowers, while in other aspects, magic is actually more of an auxiliary function, such as beast language, concealment, and wind calling.
And the strong light that Lelouch just now was just the product of Wang Zifeng using magic to create a small light source not far away, and it was just a product of close exposure, of course, the attendants who were desperately polishing the armor to make it smooth enough also accounted for half of the credit.
At this time, both sides were in good shape, but the coalition forces did not have the slightest desire to fight, and the nobles who were originally motivated by their own lineup had greatly increased morale, and at this time they no longer had the idea of making contributions, at this time they were completely at a loss, and they did not know whether they should continue to move forward or choose to retreat at this time.
The nobles who had lost their minds all set their eyes on Decres at this time!
Decrees is really bitter at this time can't say, now Decrees really doesn't believe that he can win Lelouch at all, it stands to reason that choosing to negotiate and retreat at this time is the best ending, but Decrees doesn't think so, if he retreats at this time, then the world knows that he Decrees is cowardly, sometimes it doesn't matter if he coaxes it, but sometimes, he can't retreat a single step, if Decrees retreats now, then the prestige he has worked so hard to build up will be completely gone.
When De Cres didn't dare to fight, because retreating was timid at most, but if he didn't win, it would prove that there was something wrong with his ability, and his prestige might save his life, but the people in the family who spied on his position would not give De Cres any more chance, De Cres thought that he could still control the country that was collapsing day by day, and if other brothers or uncles in his family came to power, then the empire would really be over, and even if it was Lelouch at that time, I am afraid that he would be unable to face the pressure from both sides.
De Cres thought for a long time, the other nobles became slightly impatient, the nobles, no longer prepared to give De Cres time, just when one of the nobles was about to urge, De Cres finally spoke:
"Everyone, now that the enemy and our armies have set up their positions, let's talk about what should happen next?"
De Cres's words made the nobles breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that De Cres is also ready to run, although he is reluctant to give up the massive supplies in the garrison, but he also has to have his life to spend it, a nobleman said directly:
"Lord Duke, in my opinion, there may be a misunderstanding in this battle, most of the people below lied about the matter, which led to our misunderstanding of the Earl of the Red Dragon, if you want me to say, it is better to withdraw the army today, and resolve the misunderstanding with the Earl of the Red Dragon, and the two sides will explain it in a friendly manner, and this matter will pass!"
De Cres laughed when he heard this, and the nobles around him all showed reasonable expressions at this time, obviously supporting the retreat, but De Cres suddenly said loudly after the effect:
"Okay, then let's stir up the snare drum and get ready for battle!"
