Chapter 616: The Decisive Battle

"Is it only one day away?"

Outside the Death Valley, Arthur led an army of 20,000 men, and immediately met Viscount Garcia and his party who had fled in disarray. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Garcia Wellington!"

He rode on a tall horse and looked down at Garcia, who was still wearing a nightgown, and was embarrassed: "You have insulted the name of the Wellington family!" Because of you...... My army will face a fully guarded, geographically precipitous canyon and fortress! Do you know how much it will cost us? ”

Arthur gritted his teeth.

After the Wellington family established the principality, the next step was naturally to dominate the continent.

The previous arrangement for Garcia to enter the Winfly Plain for development was the idea of attacking Eagle Fort on both sides, otherwise, the Wellington family would not have taken action immediately after the chaos on the Winfly Plains last time.

But now, Garcia has thrown away all the previous accumulation.

"I am willing to accept the punishment of the family!"

Garcia replied with a look of decay on his face, still with a black ash on his face.

This defeat seemed to have drained all his spirits and broken his backbone.

"Take them down!"

Arthur waved his hand, and the knights behind him rushed out, escorting Viscount Garcia and his party down.

He rode his horse and galloped, and before he came to the Death Canyon, he looked at the faintly visible blue dragon banner and muttered, "Is this fate?" Blue diamond crown? ”

……

"The coalition of the Red Lion, an army of more than 20,000 people?"

In the Eagle Castle, Wu Ming also overlooked the plain under the mountain, the red sea was extremely conspicuous, and the amazing eyesight and perception made him determine the specific number of the other party at once.

"It seems that the nobles on the high ground have completely surrendered to the red lion flag......"

He sighed and said in a deep voice.

"I have just received news from the carrier pigeons that the House of Wellington has unified the Highlands and intends to establish a principality......"

Emmaris came behind Wu Ming, and there seemed to be a strange light flashing in her eyes: "And...... And a very interesting piece of information! ”

"Say!"

As the biggest backstage of the black market merchants in the Wind Firefly Plain, this woman's intelligence sources are definitely quite well-informed, and even her network is all over the continent, and even Wu Ming does not have this power at present.

"The general who led the army this time was Arthur Wellington! He has been designated as the heir to the House of Wellington, and there are many rumors about him, and there is also a small rumor......"

Emmaris smiled like a little fox, exhaling in Wu Ming's ear: "This Arthur, nicknamed Lion Cub, is rumored to have obtained the inheritance of the Lionheart King, as well as the proof of the king - the holy sword in the stone!" ”

"Inheritor of the Lionheart?"

Wu Ming listened, but was a little speechless.

Although these five ancient kings seem to be prepared for the arrival of the prophesied catastrophe, they have a taste of their own affairs, and their respective arrangements and intentions are obviously in conflict.

"I don't know what kind of extraordinary power is the inheritance of the Lionheart King?"

Wu Ming looked inwardly slightly, after ascending the throne and becoming king, and capturing Eagle Fort and Death Canyon, the entire Fengying Plain could be said to have fallen into his hands, and the blue-blooded nobles also began to sincerely support him, taking out all kinds of treasures and troops.

With this support, the progress of his people's power is simply a thousand miles in a day, the gold liquid in the heart of the king has been stored for most of it, and the light network in his body has become a few points thicker, running at a high speed all the time.

The golden glory continued to merge into his body, improving his physical strength and mana, and breaking through the limit.

Even he wasn't sure what kind of damage he could do with all his might.

"Since you're here, let's meet each other!"

He suddenly decided: "Send an emissary, declare war on the House of Wellington, and send a letter of war to Arthur, and I will follow the rules of the ancient nobles and fight him on the plains!" ”

"What?"

Amarith asked in surprise, "Are you preparing for a field battle?" ”

Her small mouth opened slightly, and her eyes blinked, looking very stunned: "But...... As long as we defend Eagle Castle, they will have no choice but to retreat! ”

With the favorable terrain, it is indeed not difficult to fight 20,000 with 10,000 people.

Even if the other party comes to reinforce it, he is not afraid, as long as there are no internal problems or accidents, it can be delayed until the patience of the red lions runs out and retreats.

"Why let go of such a great opportunity?"

Wu Ming smiled slightly: "Do you think I will be satisfied with the Wind Firefly Plain?" Now is the best chance to hit the highlands! ”

Emmaris lost her voice and thought of what history says about conquering kings.

That primordial blue-blooded thaler, rumored to be, was also a man full of endless greed and desire to conquer.

"Such a good opportunity, he will definitely seize it!"

Wu Ming watched his envoy go down with an expectant expression in his eyes.

……

"What? The other party wants a decisive battle? ”

Arthur looked at the messenger in front of him, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Very good, William is indeed a warrior, and swear by the honor of the Wellington family, the war between us will follow the most basic noble code!" ”

The so-called most basic aristocratic code is also some ancient etiquette on the battlefield.

For example, no attack is allowed until both sides are thoroughly prepared.

When the other party retreats, especially when the lord flees, the knights on his side cannot pursue, etc.

In fact, it was a group of nobles who wanted to treat war as a game and avoid the restrictions of mutual attrition.

But for Arthur, does he really care?

Watching the messenger leave, he began to seriously consider the possibility of a sneak attack.

It will take some time for William's army to come to the plains from Eagle Castle, and at this time, they can sneak up and cause chaos.

It's just that he weighed the success rate, and finally had no choice but to give up.

Even if William could suffer a defeat and even kill and capture thousands of people, as long as the other party still had a few thousand people in Eagle Castle, it would still be useless.

If you really want to get the Eagle Castle, in addition to storming, you can only defeat William's army in front of the defenders inside, and then use this power to oppress and submit.

"William the Conqueror?"

Arthur lowered his head, his right hand gripping the hilt of his sword, and a playful smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.

……

On the plain, two huge military formations slowly approached.

The blue and red seas converged on this grassland, and the horses galloped, kicking up smoke and dust, and obscuring the entire sky.

"Blue Blood and Red Lion ......"

Wu Ming was wearing a blue diamond-like translucent armor, looking at this scene, but suddenly smiled: "This reminds me of the last time, the war between the Earl of Blue Mountain and the Viscount Garcia. ”

This blue diamond armor, also offered by a certain baronial family, is said to have originated in the time of Teller, and was created by the conquering king himself, and has incredible magical powers.

Wu Ming tried it, although he didn't find any extraordinary traces on it, but his defensive power far surpassed that of ordinary plate armor, and while feeling that these nobles had collected a lot of good things, he naturally smiled honestly and unceremoniously.

At this time, he rode his horse to the front of the formation, and immediately saw the heroic young man in the red sea opposite.

The other party is worthy of the name of the lion cub, and his aura is incomparable, even if there are a large number of knights next to him, he is just a green leaf, and he has become a foil.

Whining!

The sound of a low military horn sounded, like the wild laughter of death.

"Attack!"

There was a shout from the opposite side, and immediately the entire formation was scattered, and many knights and soldiers rushed out in a chaotic manner, like a tide.

"In the end, it's still a militia, the former farmers, after a little training, the formation can barely be maintained, and the charge is still neat, it's a dream!"

Wu Ming also waved his hand: "Open the cannon!" ”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

More than a dozen wooden cannons roared at once, the earth-shattering sound, as well as fan-shaped flames and killing, suddenly it seemed that more than a dozen monsters opened their bloody mouths at once, and bit off several pieces of the opponent's formation at once.

Everywhere there was flesh and blood, a hellish scene.

"Retreat!"

After the blow, the wooden artillery unit immediately abandoned its weapons and quickly retreated backwards.

With the tragic speed of a wooden cannon, such a salvo is already the limit, and it is a dream to reload on the battlefield.

And in this era, those who can skillfully manipulate wooden cannons are all talents among talents, and Wu Ming is reluctant to lose them.

As soon as they withdrew, a dense army appeared behind.

Although the number of people was almost twice as small as that of the other side, the feeling of a neat phalanx and the discipline of facing the enemy's charge without much commotion were very surprising.

"Raise your spear!"

Phew!

With the roar of the front-line officers, a row of steel spears stood up, flashing with a snowy light.

At this time, Wu Ming naturally wouldn't be stingy anymore, and directly put the elite he had compiled on the front line.

"Charge, forward!"

Crash! Crash!

Several spear phalanxes advanced rapidly, and in front of them was a row of tower shields, holding a shield a man high, and many spears pierced out of the gaps in the shields, like huge hedgehogs.

Woohoo!

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and a rain of arrows was thrown almost at the same time.

Arrows of all kinds landed on the shield with a crisp sound like a rainstorm hitting the leaves.

Compared to the special crossbow troops on the side of the blue bloods, the attacks on the opposite side were a little scattered, and after a round of shelling and crossbows, the whole team suddenly became scattered.

"Kill!"

With the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the torrent of blue and red finally converged.

A large number of roars came, accompanied by screams and roars, almost instantly, the two sides of the battle line were intertwined, flesh and blood flew sideways, and I don't know how many lives were harvested away by death.

"There is a huge difference between an organized army and a plate of scattered soldiers!"

Wu Ming looked at the scene where his side had the upper hand, but he smiled slightly, as if he had already expected this result.
