Chapter 107: The Invasion of the Kingdom of Kurut
On the other side, in the territory of the Delman Empire, an important fortress in the north, Blackstone Fort.
"Ahh
The sunlight was dazzling, making him involuntarily squint his eyes and look away. Soon, though, he realized something and looked at the eastern horizon again.
"Hey, hey, wake up!" he looked into the distance while shielding his hand from the sunlight as he kicked his companion with his foot: "Soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom!
"What are you kicking me for, soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom, how can they come to the border at this time?" the other sleeping soldier struggled to his feet, his armor clashing with a crunch.
"What are you talking about, the soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom? hell, Alert the Alert Soon!, the Kurut Kingdom is attacking!" he shouted, rubbing his eyes and looking in the direction pointed by his companion, the soldier who had just been called out was completely sleepy.
"Light the beacon fire! Quick! The kingdom of Kurut has invaded!" As soon as he lay on the edge of the watchtower, he shouted to his companions below: "Hurry up and light the fire!"
"Rain of arrows!" Before everyone could react, a field of bows and arrows flew from the side of the Kurut Kingdom, and these bows and arrows fell from the sky and landed on this high watchtower.
"Ahh
"Shield! shield!" kicked away the shaft of the arrow stuck in the ground, and the officer in charge of the lookout drew his long sword, raised the huge shield, and reminded his men loudly.
The cavalry of the Kurut Kingdom had already swarmed at this time, and the number was as large as ants. After three years of service here, it was the first time that the officers of Blackstone Fort had seen so many soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom.
It's over...... It was the thought in his head. Around him, a huge beacon fire had been ignited, the second round of arrows from the enemy had fallen, and all the soldiers had raised their shields.
"Bang!" the soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom, carrying the giant log, began to pound on the gate of the beacon, and the soldiers on the beacon clenched their weapons in horror.
The enemy attacked suddenly, and they had no chance of retreating. When the soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom rushed in, they could only meet death.
"Can't let them extinguish the flames!Long live the Delman Empire!Long live the Blackstone Castle!" Looking at the crumbling gate, the officer raised his long sword.
"Kill!" a few lonely soldiers beside him raised their shields and blocked the stone staircase to the beacon tower, their sharp swords pointing at the gate.
"Boom!" There was a loud bang, and the gate of the beacon tower was finally slammed open by a giant tree, and the soldiers of the Duchy of the Kurut Kingdom swarmed up. They were greeted by sturdy shields and sharp blades.
Metal and metal collided together, and the soldiers of the Duchy of the Kurut Kingdom, who were the first to rush up the stone ladder, screamed and fell down, and more soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom rushed up with their weapons.
One by one, the Blackstone guards fell, and the rest had to retreat to the top of the steps. Behind them, the beacon fire had already tumbled and connected to the white clouds, obscuring the sky and the sun.
In the direction of the battlements of the beacon tower, the soldiers of the Kurut Kingdom, who had already climbed up by ladder, surrounded the Blackstone Fort guards who were only a few left. Soon, the soldiers of the kingdom of Kurut drowned their opponents.
When the Khan of Seru ascended the high platform, the blood on it had not dried up and solidified. The corpse of the Blackstone Fort officer was still lying next to the fire, and the ground was still full of unrecovered feathered arrows.
Kicking the corpse, the Seru Khan had a look of disgust on his face: "Put out this fire!"
Behind him, in the direction of the hinterland of Blackstone Castle, columns of black smoke stretched one after the other into the distance, disappearing at the end of the horizon.
"Speed up the march! Don't give the Delman Empire any time to react!" Seru Khan ordered with a frown, glancing down at the corpse of the Blackstone Fort officer.
With an angry expression, Alonso pushed open the door of the council chamber with both hands, and because of the excessive force, the two doors slammed into the walls on both sides, making a loud bang.
He was dressed in black armor, and the pieces of armor on his body collided with a determined step, making a nice rattling sound.
"The Kingdom of Kurut actually came to the door to send him to death?" As soon as he entered, the sound of annoyance echoed around the sorghum, making people's ears buzz.
"Seru Khan was greedy and treacherous...... Yesterday his troops had already crossed the border, and today they are estimated to be on the northern edge of the Delman Empire. One of his lieutenants said worriedly to Alonso.
"Your Excellency, we have prepared our army, and five thousand cavalry and twenty thousand of our elite soldiers can set off at any time. Alonso's general, one of the Williams' generals, stood beside Alonso with a helmet in his hand and reported on the state of combat readiness.
"Let's go now! We will block the other side in the north of the Delman Empire for a decisive battle! Where we can give full play to the advantage of firepower! It's really all messed up, even the Kuruts have taken the initiative to invade, and take advantage of the emptiness of the Blackstone Fortress to take advantage of the void. Alonso looked at the map and made up his mind to stop his opponent.
Despite the strength of the opposition, Alonso is still confident that he can defeat his opponent. Now he was thinking about how to quickly expand the results of the battle after defeating this enemy army.
"Let the Imperial Army not have to participate in the war!Order the Imperial Army, carrying twenty magic crystal cannons, take a small path to bypass the main force of the Kurut Kingdom, and directly attack Larma City, the capital of the Kurut Kingdom!" After thinking for about a second, Alonso decided to come up with a two-pronged approach.
He has no time to waste, and it is a more reasonable way to fight if he can defeat the opponent at the same time, seize the opponent's rear foundation, expand his own territory, and solve the troubles.
But in this way, Alonso's troops facing the Seru Khan head-on will be even smaller. Even counting the retreating soldiers in the direction of the Kurut Kingdom, Alonso's troops would not exceed 30,000.
The number of enemies is almost twice as large as Alonso's! This kind of battle seems to be unsuspenseful, and it is not impossible to win more battles with less, but after all, it rarely happens.
"My lord, in this case, divide the troops...... Isn't it a bit risky?" asked the general of the William family, worriedly.
"Is it a risk to defeat the enemy with twenty magic crystal cannons?" Alonso looked at the general, and a cruel smile appeared on his face: "I'm afraid that they will surrender too soon, not enough for me to vent my hatred!"
