Originally, there was only one country on the continent, the Karad Empire, with its capital in Sagos. After the division of the Karad Empire, the Kingdom of Svadia unified the continent, although the kingdom became rich and developed for a while, but it could not avoid many hidden dangers, maybe the previous king of Svadia handled it properly, but since King Haraus came to the throne, he did not pay attention to dealing with the relationship between various important ministers like the previous kings, but wanted to concentrate all the power in his own hands, he continued to suppress these important ministers, and raised the tax rate to an unbelievable point, although the whole country was dissatisfied with Harlaus, But forced by the centuries-old rules of the kingdom, no one wants to break it.

It was a group of pirates who broke it.

Just when the kingdom was about to undergo upheaval, a group of pirates came from the north, who called themselves the Nords, and they were extremely powerful. The Kingdom's infantry were far inferior to these pirates, and the proud heavy cavalry could not fight in the mountains to the north. So soon, Haraus lost the capital of Saggs and its surrounding areas, which caused the kingdom to panic for a while, and some of the ministers who were suppressed by Haraus seized the opportunity to raise the flag of rebellion and proclaim the name of Rhodok, they successfully separated Viruga and Djerkhara, established the town of Aaron, and declared war on the Kingdom of Swadia.

Enraged, Haraus mobilized all the forces in the east to attack the lost Saggs, as well as Veruga and Djerkhara, but before the army could reach the enemy's city, the bandits of the Ringing Horse and the Snow Plains in the east became active. On the other hand, Virgian is not calm either, and their kingdom has risen again after years of decline. The Kugit soon migrated from the steppes and seized the steppe from Viggia, and the Kugit had fast cavalry that made the war very smooth. Soon after the death of the old Khan, Sega used his power to crowd out Dastam and became the new Khan. Due to the turmoil in the regime, the Kugit temporarily stopped their external expansion, and many Kugit began to own fixed assets in the city.

Today, in order to satisfy his ambitions, Haraus has made a vow to march towards Viruga.

The mercenaries and the minor nobles walked at the end of the procession, while the king and the counts led the way on their heavily armed horses. But when the large army of more than 40,000 people arranged the formation in Agorlongburg, there was a dragon tail, and the mercenaries at the end were arranged to the front line, but the counts were watching from behind, although it stands to reason that the army cannot be without a commander for a day, this is no problem, but Yi Ye is very unhappy in his heart, after all, he has been in a fair country for 18 years.

However, Murder still equipped them with equipment, but the money had to be deducted from the military salary, so Yi Ye only let the soldiers take good quality shields. Even so, according to Baron Murder, it seems that there is not much left of military salary, whether it is true or hacked, Yi Ye can only swallow this breath, after all, the other party is a nobleman.

Yi Ye is quite smart, he knows that his 20 or so men have no impact on this battle, he just wants to take the opportunity to let the soldiers see the big scene, and pick up a little loot by the way. So even when the counts gave the order and ordered the 5,000 mercenaries to charge, Yi Ye and his soldiers just raised their shields to fish where the counts couldn't see.

The Rhodok soldiers were condescending on the walls, and their highest-level siege crossbows were equipped with giant crossbow arrows, and it was not a problem to shoot through sleeveless plate armor, but fortunately, there were not many such crossbow arrows in Viruga, and in fact they were rare in the country.

Yi Ye, who pretended to be smart, realized the seriousness of the problem at this moment.

The so-called good quality shields he was equipped with were directly pierced by crossbow arrows, and the white pigeon soldiers who only wore simple leather armor were pierced through their bodies, and at this time, the experienced Fatis saw that this was a broken shield made of simple modifications, just decorations, not to mention crossbow arrows, even ordinary bows and arrows may not be able to withstand a few shots.

Yi Ye looked desperately at the soldiers in front of him being shot through, fear filled his body, and he stood in place in a daze.

"There's no way, listen, White Dove soldiers, move the bodies of the dead soldiers to me, move quickly." Desaivi looked at the overwhelmed captain and gave orders on the fly.

When the white dove soldiers heard this, they immediately moved the bodies of the 11 white dove soldiers who had died and built a human wall, so that they were temporarily safe, because the soldiers had been fighting for a day, and the sky was beginning to darken, but even so, the mercenaries did not dare to retreat, because the Svadian crossbowmen in the rear were also aiming at these mercenaries.

They had to camp on the spot.

For the first time in his life, Yi Ye fell into deep despair, not only the casualties of the soldiers, but also the use of their bodies to save his own lives, which made Yi Ye feel guilty in his heart, and at the same time had a deep resentment towards the nobles of Namad.

Equally sad was Fatis, but he must have been through too many of these scenes, so he just folded his hands and muttered something in his mouth, and then returned to the fighting state. During this period, he also continued to persuade Yi Ye, trying to make him accept this humiliating fact.

However, Yi Ye didn't listen to a word.

The silent night was eerily silent, except for the crackling of the fire and the rustling of the wind through the meadow. After Fatis persuaded to get no response, no one said a word. Because, next to them lay the remains of a white dove soldier tied into a hedgehog.

The foul smell of the corpses caused the morale of the soldiers to drop to a low point. It attracted a lot of mosquitoes. Yi Ye looked at the mosquito sucking his own blood. There is no expression and no desire to slap it to death.

I just thought to myself: suck it, sooner or later you will have to burst your belly.

The next morning, just after dawn, according to the plan, the mercenaries had to launch a charge to complete the task, but after yesterday's fighting, nearly half of the people died, and the wounded could not be counted, and the mercenaries had no energy to charge.

The garrisons of Viruga also seemed to know that this was just a feint and a drain on their crossbow arrows, so they did not dare to make any moves, but just waited for the kingdom's next order.

Haraus finally couldn't hold back the throbbing in his heart. Announce the battle plan to the counts.

Nearly 15,000 Swadian infantry began to advance, with crossbowmen following closely behind, while cavalry of lesser siege warfare waited around to prevent the surprise attacks of other Rhodok kingdoms.

A big war is about to be triggered.

The mercenaries watched the reinforcements behind them shouting high slogans, and they couldn't help but feel a warm current in their hearts, even though they were treated unfairly and used as cannon fodder in this battle.

Although there were some hiccups in the world, the kingdom's offensive capabilities were second to none. The soldiers who saw such a scene, especially those who participated in a large-scale battle for the first time like Yi Ye, gave a big thumbs up in their hearts. More than 50 trebuchets continued to strike at the wall. The infantry also followed the 10 siege engines and slowly advanced, avoiding many of the crossbow arrows. There were also countless huge shields to protect the soldiers, but it took three or five strong men to lift them.

The battle was in full swing.

The sound of metal clashing, the sound of swords and crossbows piercing into the body filled the battlefield, and there was no shortage of soldiers who were wounded and wailing in pain on the ground.

The battle lasted for three days and three nights, until noon on the fourth day, when King Harauth finally smiled for the first time in a long time.

Because the soldiers had taken the city of Viruga, the few remaining Rhodok soldiers raised their hands in surrender.

According to statistics, the kingdom killed more than 8,000 people in this battle, wounded more than 2,000 enemies, and accepted more than 2,000 surrenders. And the kingdom suffered only more than 3,000 casualties, not including, of course, the poor mercenaries and improvised peasants.

Even after such a big battle, the damage to the main forces of the king was still negligible. This is undoubtedly a battle that can go down in history.

To this end, King Harauth held a seven-day banquet in Viruga to boost the morale of his army, and gradually, the pain of the casualties of his comrades was diluted by wine and beauty, no matter who they were, including Yi Ye.

One day at a banquet, a knight ran in in a panic, slammed to the ground, and raised the letter in his hand. The aristocrats scoffed at it, their faces full of disdain, and they muttered something in their mouths.

"Your Highness the King, there is an emergency."
