Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Tide of Rage I
Because the greenskins have not made trouble for three hundred years, the defenses here are quite lax, and because this land does not produce much food at all, a large number of humans flee the famine every year.
The forests of Yafen have long been deserted, the once populous farms have long since been uninhabited, and the castles scattered among the mountains have become dilapidated under the wind and rain, and even some of the fortresses have long since become unusable.
The mountain road is very difficult to walk, this is Lu En's first feeling, he led the army to walk on the path in the Arden forest, although there were a few beasts on the way, and a few monsters, but there were no major problems under the encirclement and suppression of the army.
The key is...... Lu En was unsure of exactly where the battle between the Imperial army and the Council of Nobles was taking place.
With the help of the system, Lu En managed to identify a small arrow on the map, which would at least guide the general direction without any mistakes, but ...... Lu En believed that if there was no accurate battlefield, then it would take at least more time to move forward.
"What do you think about this fight?" Lu En asked Duke Zilfroy beside him.
Duke Zilfroy glanced at Lu En beside him: "After all, this battle is more defeats and fewer victories. ”
"Since the imperial army has entered Bretonnia, it must have the certainty of victory, and this point has already been seen in many battles in the history of the empire, and if there is no certain plan, the imperial army will definitely not attack."
Lu En nodded: "Yes, I also see it this way, the firepower of the imperial army is very fierce, if our cavalry can't quickly destroy the imperial artillery and musketeers, then the probability of defeat is quite high!" ”
Lu En sighed slightly: "The army of the nobles of Bretonnia is really terrible. ”
As soon as the words fell, a crisp dragon groan came from the sky, and Lu En's frost demon dragon was seen looming from the clouds in the sky.
"Looks like my mount has found a place to fight."
Three hours passed, and when Lu and Duke Zilfroy's army reached the top of the mountain, Lu saw the battle below.
The warring sides did not enter the war, they were resting on one of their respective peaks.
Lu En looked at the battlefield not far away, and found that the troops of the noble council not far away were too pitiful, most of them were Kingdom knights, although there were a few catapults in the army, and a large number of infantry were resting.
Although in the Council of Nobles, Lu En found that there were Holy Grail Knights among them, but the armor worn by these Holy Grail Knights was still chain mail, and although the spears in their hands were blessed by the goddess Lilith, they looked very old.
There are very few Holy Grail Knights, and although there are many Kingdom Knights, in this hilly terrain, I am afraid that they will be destroyed by the firepower of the Imperial Army before they have rushed in front of the enemy.
Even if you are lucky enough to rush into the Imperial Army for a while, I am afraid that you will be strangled by the Imperial Army because of excessive physical exertion.
Lu En once again carefully observed the Imperial Army, and it was needless to say how well equipped the Imperial Army was, but with the courage on the faces of these Imperial people, the morale of these Imperial people was high right now.
What's more, from the mountains not far away, one by one artillery pieces are slowly pushing over!
More, more artillery and rocket artillery were delivered to the Imperial barracks.
The time to kill was about to begin, and the thought had not dissipated since it had risen in Lu En's mind, let alone died.
War, I believe it will soon take place in this mountain range.
Lu En sighed slightly, he looked at the valley not far away, there were already many corpses in the clearing that flowed out, I believe that there was a fierce battle not long ago.
A large number of Hippogriffs, Knights, Pegasus Knights, and a small number of Imperial infantry have been laid to rest in the valley below.
But this is only the beginning, and when the two armies are now at odds with each other, the battle is almost inevitable.
Bang!
The roar is naturally the sound of artillery fire, from the emperor
The projectile fired from the cannon accurately smashed into the barracks of the Bretonnian aristocratic coalition, and soon rolled up a burst of blood and a scene of limb splashing.
Bang!!
More artillery fire was fired from the Imperial cannons, and then fell into the Bartonnian aristocratic barracks, from which a frightened voice was soon heard: "Array, prepare for battle!" ”
Amid the whistling, the Imperial army quickly formed its formation, first of all, the Imperial sword and shield infantry and spearmen, these Imperial troops with neat steps, slowly but firmly advancing towards the army of the Bretonnian nobles.
Even though a large number of stones were shot out of the aristocratic coalition, they did not stop at all.
When the stones of the catapult smashed into the army, it caused a wave of casualties, but the warriors who had already been trained to become Iron Will did not stop.
Needless to say, the front line of the Imperial army is naturally the main force of the Knights of the Burning Sun, and a bunch of musketeers, these backbone of the Empire walk slowly in it, ready to go to war at any time!
In the middle of the army, like the stars holding the moon, in the middle of the army was none other than the Grand Master of the Sigma Sect, Ruthless Walkma, who was only seen wearing a priest's robe, and the chariot under his feet walked slowly on the battlefield.
The last drop of the Imperial army was, naturally, artillery, which, instead of advancing with the army, took up favorable terrain and began to launch a fierce artillery bombardment below!
Lu En focused mainly on the ruthless Walkma the Ruthless, only to see the old man standing on top of a scarlet chariot, wearing a street white priest's robe, and holding a glittering warhammer in his hand.
His eyes were full of fervor and determination, as if he had come to Bretonnia not for the good of the Empire, but to spread the glory of Sigmaism in Bretonnia.
Lu En looked to the other side, only to see that the unresponsive Bretonnian noble council had just rushed down from the mountain, and only saw that there were a few catapults left in the camp, although they also kept throwing stones, but compared to the imperial artillery, this primitive war equipment was obviously inferior!
In the center of the Bretonnian aristocratic army is the most gorgeous army of noble knights, including the Knights of the Holy Grail, the Knights of the Kingdom, the Knights of Adventure, and some Ranger Knights, who are majestic, high-spirited, and ready to charge!
