Chapter 117: The Resurrection of the Golden Lion - The Fall of Copper

In the splendid palace of the Golden Dome, Worthen performed a solemn coronation ceremony, and a magnificent crown was placed on Worthen's head, making the already burly man look even more majestic.

"Long live the Golden Lion Family! Long live the King!"

"Alright, everyone, the place of succession, I am sure that everyone is very much looking forward to the future of this kingdom. However, the current situation is very bad, surrounded by many powerful enemies, and the national strength is becoming more and more empty, and neither the future of the kingdom nor the future of you is optimistic! Therefore, I will carry out reforms and completely change the strength of the kingdom! But since it is a reform, it will definitely harm the interests of some people, and I would like to apologize to you first! Let me first ask, if the reform is carried out in the country, will anyone oppose it?"

The eyes of all the nobles were full of horror, if the reform was carried out, would they still be able to keep the power in their hands? It was really just out of Longtan and into the mouth of the tiger! But the Wild Lion Knights in Worthen's hands had expanded to 5,000 people, and no one dared to face the edge of the Wild Lion Knights, give in, at least there was still a way to live!

"Your Majesty, all the people of the Isis family have been imprisoned, what will Your Majesty do with it?"

"This question, I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I am going to send it to Xisar City, everyone should know who lives in Xisar City, I want to exchange the people of the Isis family for peace in the south, who wants to send an envoy to the south?"

Everyone was silent, the question was too acute, and it was not easy to meet the Duke of Cesar, after all, the Duke of Cesar and the Heizun Kingdom were feuding.

A young official stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to send an envoy to the city of Xisa!"

"Oh, what's your name, what is your official position, do you have confidence in the envoy?"

"Your Majesty, my name is Jareth Canon, and I am a royal clerk who drafts decrees, and I am very confident in sending an envoy to the city of Cesa, and I ask the king to send me to the city of Cesa. ”

"The official position is very small, but you have great courage, such a meeting, you are an official in charge of recording, you dare to take on such a difficult errand, I am very satisfied with your courage, from today onwards, you are the Minister of State, okay, let's go when you are ready, I am very urgent to negotiate with the city of Cesar now." ”

"Your Majesty, I will leave at once, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. With that, he bowed and stepped back.

"Antas, you fought very bravely in the previous battles, and you are a member of the Golden Lion family, I now grant you the Electro Magic Spear, and promote you to the rank of Marquis, responsible for leading the Knights of the Wild Lion. ”

"Your Majesty, obey the order, I will do my best to shed the last drop of blood for the Golden Lion Family!"

"Antas, I see your loyalty, if you can make great contributions in the future, I will promote you to duke!"

An intermediate minister said: "Your Majesty, the army of the northern realm is currently unable to resist the army of the Drifting Snow Country, can you arrange someone to go to support?

"Hahaha! You ministers really know how to choose the time, but it may disappoint you, this time the Nuggets City will continue to be fine, and I will also harvest a general! Spread my will! Seal the Grand Duke of Shaliwan as the Grand Duke of Gale and let him lead the army to recover the Gale Fortress!"

"Your Majesty, Gale Fortress is currently in the hands of someone else?。。。。 ”

"Send an envoy to give me an order! All the military supplies will be supplied to Shaliwan at once!"

Worthen reappointed a large number of ministers, changed the Black Diamond Kingdom to the Golden Lion Kingdom, followed the example of the Crescent Federation to promote the government decree of benefiting the people, and began to implement the military participation guarantee mechanism, all soldiers who fought for the country, as long as they made meritorious service regardless of their origin, they would be given knighthoods, and if they died in battle, the country would give a pension.

The thing that made all the nobles shudder was still to come, after Shaliwan received the appointment from Worthen, he actually rebelled against the Northern Kingdom and really accepted the title of Grand Duke of Gale Wind of the Golden Lion Kingdom, purged the Northern officers in the army, firmly controlled the army, and then headed for the Purple Copper City.

After the Duke of Cesar saw the remnants of Isis, he was extremely excited, and agreed with the envoy to give the Golden Lion Kingdom a lot of grain and grass, and said that after sending a large amount of grain and grass, the Giant Elephant Kingdom was temporarily unable to gather a large army.

A large amount of grass is still on the way to be transported, the news has reached the Golden Dome City, Worthen thought that he could exchange for the loyalty of the Duke of Xiza, but he didn't expect the Duke of Xiza to have no intention of returning, but at least he also supported a large amount of grain and grass, it seems that the Grand Duke of Xiza has repaid his favor, and he will still be his own master in the future.

With military rations and reforms, the Golden Lion Kingdom radiated new strength and began to recruit and train troops on a large scale, preparing for a full-scale counterattack on the Crescent Federation and the Drifting Snow Country.

Sha Liwan led an elite army of 50,000 to attack Zitong City, consisting of 10,000 heavy armored cavalry, 10,000 elite crossbowmen, 5,000 crossbowmen, and 20,000 elite infantry.

The current military strength of Copper City consists of 8,000 pikemen, 3,000 longbowmen, 3,000 spear knights, 10,000 infantry, 10,000 crossbow cavalry, and 500 elite magic archers.

Lan Ya, who was guarding the Copper City, held an emergency meeting, and while delivering news to George, he mobilized his army to prepare for the enemy.

Sha Liwan rode on a war horse and observed the Copper City, obviously the guards here did not have much experience in defending the city, and the control of the city was not too strong, and there were many flaws, but he only had 50,000 troops in his hands, and it was not the best plan to forcibly attack the Copper City.

"Lord Duke, the ambush has been set up, do you want to send a decoy force?"

"Okay! Send out the troops to lure the enemy, remember to let the northerners line, our descendants don't move first, and consume those northerners to death on the battlefield!"

"Lord Duke, I see! I'll arrange it!"

Shaliwan's army dispatched 20,000 infantry and 5,000 pikemen to attack the Bronze City.

Lanya sent 10,000 infantry to divide into two phalanxes, each with a thousand longbowmen in the middle, and the Chinese army had 3,000 lancers and 10,000 crossbow cavalry.

Attaya issued an order in the Chinese army to send out crossbow cavalry to attack from both flanks!

Shaliwan's troops collided with the two phalanxes first, and began a fierce battle, although the northern soldiers were extremely elite, but due to the lack of archer support, they were suppressed by Ataya's army and suffered a large number of casualties, and after losing ordinary soldiers, the army began to break and flee.

Ataya said, "Anthony, you go and lead the crossbow cavalry to pursue, the army from the north is too weak, so vulnerable!"

Anthony said: "Although it feels like a fraud, the other party's death is real! Unless the enemy generals don't want these people to live, I'll chase them, be careful!"

Anthony led 10,000 crossbowmen in pursuit of the fleeing soldiers, and as the army reached a hill, an arrow pierced the sky and screamed!

From the top of the hill, a large number of elite crossbowmen suddenly appeared, and began to shoot indiscriminately at the defeated army and Anto's army, the strong crossbowmen had a very long range, and began to shoot Anto's troops in batches, and Anto's crossbowmen could not shoot each other, and there began to be serious casualties.

Shaliwan sent 5,000 pikemen, surrounded the opponent's 10,000 crossbow cavalry, and began to strangle the crossbow cavalry, although Anthony desperately broke through, still could not kill the encirclement.

As the crossbowmen continued to snipe, Anthony fell into the dust with arrows full of feathers, and all 10,000 crossbow cavalry were wiped out.

Saliwan had 5,000 crossbowmen mounted on his horses, and the remaining 4,000 pikemen began to attack Ataya's troops.

Attaya slowly advanced her troops, and suddenly saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance, thinking that Anthony had returned, and did not make sufficient combat preparations, the strong crossbows on the war horses dismounted one after another, pulled out the giant crossbow, and began to throw a large area.

The longbowmen had a shorter range than the crossbowmen, and they could not reach the light crossbowmen in the distance, and the phalanx began to suffer heavy casualties.

"Count Ataya, let's send out cavalry, otherwise the losses will be very serious!"

"Are Anthony defeated, bastards, and where do these strange crossbowmen come from?"

The 3,000 cavalry began to charge at the army of Shaliwan, but before they could rush in front of the crossbowmen, they were shot and killed, and the crossbowmen hurriedly jumped on their horses and retreated.

Ataya's cavalry pursued for a while, and when they passed through a small forest, countless crossbow arrows were shot from the woods, and the crossbowmen who fled in front suddenly turned back and began to concentrate their fire, and all three thousand troops were killed.

After killing 6,000 infantrymen, Ataya finally killed 40,000 cavalry in front of the battle, and seeing that her cavalry had not returned, Ataya's heart throbbed, not good! Anthony would not have been killed in battle, right?

With a thought in his mind, Attaya led the army to retreat steadily, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves in the distance like a tsunami in Yamamoto, Shaliwan dispatched five thousand heavy armored cavalry, and the cavalry rushed into the formation of Ataya's cavalry, slashing Ataya's soldiers like a tiger, and Attaya led the remnants of the army to struggle in the torrent of steel.

Saliwan picked up a thick crossbow and mounted an armor-piercing arrow and shot it at Ataya, the arrow pierced through the heart, and Ataya fell in response, and Ataya's army was killed by Saliwan.

Ataya didn't return for a long time, and Lanya sent spies to find that all the troops outside the city were Shalivan's army, and her heart was cold!

Lanya quickly gathered 30,000 temporary infantry to defend the city, and then asked Lancelot to gather magic archers out of the city, first ambushing in the forest outside the city.

Sha Liwan led the army to attack the city, looked at the copper city Sha Liwan shook his head, and issued an order for the trebuchet to attack the city gate, and soon the city gate was breached, Sha Liwan sent a giant crossbowman, row after row of giant crossbows pressed the defending troops to raise their heads, and the elite light crossbowmen began to approach the city gate, occupying the city wall and commanding heights in batches!

Lan Ya touched her slightly bulging belly and sighed: "George, I failed your expectations and lost the Copper City, woo woo... ”

"Lord Marquis, the Copper City can't be defended, hurry up and break through!"

"No, you can't go! You must defend the Copper City!"

"Lord Marquis, you still have the Duke's child in your belly, you don't think about your body, you have to think about the child in your belly!"

At this time, a summoner of the Capet family pulled Lanya and led 50 elite guards to break through, and after some fighting, Lanya was rescued by everyone and retreated to Gale Fortress led by Lancelot.

Sha Liwan led the army to occupy the Copper City, began to strengthen and install the giant crossbow, installed the giant crossbow in many commanding heights of the Copper City, and then sent a letter to the Jinding City to apply for the support of 50,000 troops.

After the Shaliwan army captured the Purple Copper City, the Drifting Snow Country reacted greatly, and Queen Henna was furious and began to vigorously investigate the dark lines in the country, to thoroughly screen all the unstable factors, and due to the two successive rebellions, the Drifting Snow Country's national strength was greatly damaged, and it temporarily lost the ability to advance southward.

After George got the news, he showed a rare silence, not only because of the loss of the hard-run Copper City, but more importantly, because of the loss of an excellent subordinate, the simple fat man has never enjoyed a good life since he followed him to the army, and now he is saddened by the death of the Copper City.

Tina was even more angry, her eyes seemed to be bleeding, she didn't eat a meal from morning to night, and sat next to George and gritted her teeth.

George took a deep breath and said, "I can't imagine that Shaliwan will actually join the Black Diamond Kingdom! But why? We don't know anything about Shaliwan's military strength! Why did the Black Diamond Kingdom get involved with Shaliwan? Where is Jabad? Let him come to me!"

"Lord Duke, Jabad hasn't come back yet, and he should be back in a few days. ”

Tina scolded: "Brother, what are you hesitating about now? Ataya is our friend, and now she is dead! Die for your cause! What kind of investigation do you still have the heart to do here? If I die in battle one day, will you also do some kind of investigation like now? You bastard! You are not my brother! Woo... ”

With that, Tina ran out angrily.

George rubbed his temples, flipped through the battle report with difficulty, and began to analyze the whole story, trying to find out the problem from it.

After seeing the battle report of the Purple Copper City, Walzen was very relieved, and sent a trained army of 20,000 to the Purple Copper City, Sha Liwan's strength is not only that, just to teach the Crescent Federation how to fight those mud legs!

After returning to Gale Fortress, Lanya began to gather a large army to prepare for a decisive battle with the army of Shaliwan, but Lanlot stopped Lanya.

"Sister, please return to Ammesvalon immediately! You know the importance of children! Now that the Copper City is gone, and the army you rely on is gone, sister! The only person who can protect your position is your child! Please return immediately and don't continue fighting, leave it to me here, and I will guard the Gale Fortress for you!"

"Lancelot, you make me think about it! Ataya is dead in battle, how can I go back and give George an account?"

"Sister! How long are you going to be confused? The general trend is gone! Our army can't stop Shaliwan's elite army, don't you see the strength of his army? I'm afraid that George won't be able to bargain for anything when he comes with people, sister, you go back quickly and discuss a plan with George!"

"Lancelot! That's all you have to do, if you can't hold on, run away!"

The 20,000 troops supported by Jinding City arrived at Copper City, and Sha Liwan recruited 20,000 infantry to defend Copper City, leading his troops and 20,000 supporting troops to prepare to attack Gale Fortress.

Lancelot analyzed the strength of the two sides, and felt that his military strength was far inferior to that of the other party, and the defending Gale Fortress would definitely be surrounded by the other party in the Gale Fortress, and after thinking for a long time, he decided to lead the army to ambush the Shaliwan army, as long as the raid was successful, he would have a chance to turn the tables! Is it whether he can defeat the other party in this station? If he fails, then what face do he have to go back?

Lancelot shook his head vigorously, his brows tightly twisted together, and ordered: "Everyone retreat! All retreat!
