Chapter 9 Crisis
Chapter 9 Crisis
The imperial capital of the Van Empire is still singing and dancing, and His Majesty Dear Shagru has just made love to his queen for less than three days, and has turned his attention to Madame Grimm again, but this time his full attention is not on her, his interest is more in those mature, beautiful, and amorous ladies. The wife of a duke, the wife of a marquis, the wife of an earl... If it weren't for his status, he wouldn't be able to access his people, and he would probably have to add a certain merchant lady to his list of prey.
The entire government and the opposition almost ignored this, Your Majesty was happy, and those nobles still wished that their wives and the emperor could have a one-night stand, which would bring great benefits to themselves. Don't you see that Duke Green, who abandoned his territory and fled to the imperial capital, is now given the official title of a very glorious patrol envoy? Isn't everything the credit of Madame Green?
Except for the Minister of War, the Minister of State, the Prime Minister and a few other important ministers, the entire imperial capital is immersed in a * atmosphere, the so-called upward and downward effect, since Shagru likes to hunt beautiful women so much, other nobles can't lag behind, right? So, who still remembers the front line in the south, the poor Silver Wolf Legion is leading a large number of private army legions against the large number of troops of the Smart Empire? Especially important, the Silver Wolf Legion also fell into an embarrassing situation where they did not dare to attack or retreat, after all, there were too many magicians on the other side, and attacking was to seek death;
The Minister of War sat in his official residence every day, waiting for the battle report from the front line, and he couldn't help but shout and curse in a hurry: "Damn Balu, don't he know how anxious we are in the imperial capital? What the hell happened, not a single battle report was sent back? Even if he defeated the Smart Imperial Army, he would send us a message... Is it impossible to say that they have all been annihilated? If the Smart army wants to annihilate the Silver Wolf Legion, it needs at least 100,000 people to attack constantly, no, 100,000 is not enough, no matter what, Balu can escape. ”
The Minister of War carried a few of his beards and sighed worriedly. At this moment, the nervous-looking Secretary of State kicked away the guards at the door and rushed over with a loud shout: "Oh my God, damn it, damn it, damn the Wright Empire, they refused, they refused our request." Oh my God, is this still our ally?"
The Minister of War jumped up quickly and shouted, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"
The Minister of State gasped a few times and shouted: "Damn the Wright Empire, they have received the will of their gods to get along with all their neighbors, and they are not willing to help us, even if they want them to move a little bit on the border to put pressure on the Smart Empire." It is said that they had a poor grain harvest last year, and now the army is not enough to mobilize troops and horses. If we need their help, we need to give them three months' rations for each soldier in a million-strong army. ”
The Minister of War cursed loudly: "Damn, the direct legion of the Wright Empire is only 350,000 people, ******, where do they have a million troops? Three months rations? Let's go and grab it... By the time we get the food over, the Smart Imperial Army will have achieved its goal no matter what it wants. ”
The Secretary of State said dryly, "Perhaps, the Smart Empire is trying to achieve such an outcome." ”
The Minister of War gasped: "You, what did you say?"
The Minister of State had a gloomy face and whispered: "The highest-ranking envoy I sent, they have not been received by several other allies at all, on the contrary, although the Wright Empire has made unacceptable conditions, at least their emperor has received our envoy... The fact that our allies are making such ambiguous gestures at the same time only proves one thing: the diplomacy of the Smart Empire has come ahead of us. ”
As soon as the Minister of State's words fell, the Minister of Security ran in in embarrassment, sweating profusely, and he screamed: "The latest news, the second princess of the Smart Empire and the crown prince of the Wright Empire have married. Except for the youngest five princesses in the Smart Empire, the other four princesses are all married, damn it, my spy has just sent me these messages now, it's damn it... ”
The Minister of State grabbed the Minister of Security with one hand and roared: "Damn, you're only telling me this now?Forget it, forget it, a princess is nothing, we can seduce the minds of those princes by choosing a few specially selected beauties, but, but what are the treaties attached to them? What other treaties did the Smart Empire give them?"
The Minister of Security looked at the Minister of State with a hideous face with a little horror, and stammered: "I don't know, there is no way to find out, the women I sent to the nobles of the Smart Empire have all been eliminated, and they are now all sold to the lowest brothel in the Smart Empire... Didn't get any information, but ... ”
The Secretary of State frowned: "But what?"
The Minister of Security looked at the Minister of War, and looked at the Minister of War with a weak, distressed look. After being silent for a while, he smiled dryly: "There is also good news that only four of our five allies have been wooed, and the fifth has not been wooed, because the youngest princess of the Smart Empire is not willing to marry our lovely ally." ”
The Secretary of State nodded slowly, "So?"
The Minister of Security smiled bitterly: "So, our ally thinks that the Smart Empire looks down on their crown prince, so they decided to send 30,000 heavy cavalry to help us defend against the invasion of the Smart Empire. That's our neighbour to the north ... Bicester Empire. My spy has received detailed information in advance, but it will take about three days for the official credentials to be delivered to you. ”
The Secretary of State nodded silently and pondered. And the Minister of War roared angrily: "Those northern barbarians who believe in the god of all beasts actually insist on the true covenant more than their allies who claim to be righteous and bright, but they send people to help us, really... Damn it. ”
The Minister of State sneered: "My dear, you have to think clearly, if the little princess of the Smart Empire is willing to marry the crown prince of the Bicester Empire, what will happen to it? But, dear sir, can you tell me why that lovely little princess Smart is not willing to marry the crown prince of the Bicester Empire? Doesn't she want to be the queen of the Bicester Empire, whose territory is the largest and largest on the mainland? Or, she wants to be the empress of the Smart Empire?"
The Minister of Security very shrewdly understood what the dear gentleman was referring to, and he bowed slightly, and replied, "My lord, I think that little princess has a sweetheart, and the lovely young man who helped us avoid being attacked by the Bicester cavalry is the commander of the army of the Smart Empire this time, the seventh-order magician of the Diamond Dragon, Mr. Karin de Edwards. The son of the first prime minister of the Smart Empire... At the same time, according to my spy's answer, the little princess of the Smart Empire once publicly declared at a diplomatic banquet that the crown prince of the Bicester Empire had too thick and long hair, and she did not like a gorilla as her husband. ”
The Minister of War laughed wildly: "Haha, gorillas... He suddenly snorted coldly: "So, can you tell me how many times has that kind of diplomatic banquet been held? Who are the participants? Why are the princes of our empire not invited to attend?"
The faces of the Minister of State and the Minister of Security were pale and speechless... After a long time, the poor minister of security stammered and explained, "My lord... This one... I seem to have received a secret report that the crown princes of our five most powerful allies, or the princes with the most promising succession to the throne, have all attended such banquets... This, this ... Oh my God, the five princesses of the Smart Empire, each time they participated. ”
The Minister of War roared: "Useless waste... Oh my God, dear sir, please forgive me for my rudeness... That's the mistake of your subordinate spies, you should teach them a good lesson, maybe reduce their funds, and greet their relatives in the imperial capital well, which will make them more motivated to work. Well, everything can explain why we are now in such a passive situation. Maybe I'm thankful for Smart's Carlin, who got us a great deal of reinforcements. ”
The Minister of Security smiled: "However, maybe you are wrong, according to the information obtained by my intelligence system, Lord Balu has won five consecutive victories on the front line, and the Smart Imperial Army has been driven three hundred miles, and it is almost about to withdraw from the Qingfeng Plain... Our Great Lord Grimm is too timid, if he persists until now, the military merits he has established will be enough for him to receive a reward. ”
The Minister of War and State laughed with joy: "Aha, really? That's great... ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a piercing sound of swords clattering outside the hall, and the Minister of State shrank to the bottom of the table and shouted loudly: "Assassin, assassin, coming, coming... Where are the people dead?Assassins, there are Assassins... ”
He was still howling, and a wheezing voice had come in: "My lord, my lord... I'm Merome, a bronze third-order knight directly under General Baru, oh my God, emergency military situation. ”
The Minister of War roared frantically: "Let him in." ”
As a result, a cloth-clothed man covered in blood, whose left hand was cut off to the shoulder, but was rigged with a dirty strip of cloth, was kicked in by more than a dozen high-level gold and silver knights. Merome looked at the Minister of War blankly, and roared with difficulty: "My lord, send reinforcements quickly, the enemy commander Karin has led nearly 200,000 troops to completely destroy the 'Iron Blood Battle Castle', and is confronting Lord Balu... The enemy still has 200,000 reinforcements about to arrive, and it is impossible for Lord Balu to resist it. ”
Those high-ranking knights froze, and a golden fourth-order knight rushed forward quickly, as if he didn't want to have the capital, and poured his fighting spirit into Meromi's body.
The Minister of War took a few steps back, and just as he was about to say something, Meromi had already roared loudly: "The 'Green Field Legion' in Xili Province has been wiped out, 500,000 recruits and 30,000 private army legions have been annihilated along with the 'Iron and Blood Battle Fort', Xili Province has no resistance at present, once the defense line of Lord Balu is broken, the entire province will inevitably fall into the hands of the Smart Empire." ”
He spat out a mouthful of blood and said with difficulty: "Lord Balu sent a hundred people to convey the military information, and on the way, I encountered the interception of our empire's own knights, I saw the corpses of thirty-nine brothers with my own eyes, there are spies in the empire, my lord, Lord Balu, please conduct a thorough investigation... ”
As soon as she said the last word, Merome fell to the ground.
The Minister of War stared blankly at Meromei, and suddenly let out a wounded lion-like howl: "Damn it, you killed your own companions. ”
The high-ranking knights knelt on the ground in panic, and they could distinguish in a loud voice: "My lord, as soon as he arrived at the door, he rushed straight inside... Also, he is already seriously injured and is about to die, and we just stopped him from entering your mansion, and we didn't hurt him. ”
The Minister of Guards' face was disgraced, and he took a dozen steps back, sat down on a chair, and could no longer speak. The Minister of War laughed cruelly: "Very good, very good, you are so useful, a seriously injured bronze horseman, actually rushed seven hundred meters, directly in front of my lobby, but... Give Merome a gold first-order knight's pension of 10,000 gold coins and personally deliver it to his family. An official posthumous instrument was immediately issued and communicated to the entire Imperial Army. ”
He didn't look at the Minister of State who was cautiously crawling out from under the table in embarrassment, nor at the Minister of Security who was drenched in cold sweat and sitting there trembling constantly, he rushed straight to Meromei's body, searched for Baru's handwritten letter, and rushed out with a high knight.
Merome's body was respectfully lifted by several golden knights, and they carried him out cautiously, as if they were afraid to wake him up.
In the ruins of the 'Iron and Blood Battle Castle', Carlin floated alone in the air, smashing out more than a dozen huge red and black fireballs with a frenzied wave of his hand, and the fire-based high-level magic 'Fire God Heavenly Descent' exploded the entire ground trembling, and holes more than ten meters wide appeared on the ground. Carlin roared angrily: "Damn Baru, do you still dare to say nothing to me? Aren't you very powerful? Aren't you arrogant? You dare to stand still and let me shoot a hundred 'Flame God Descends'?"
Far away, Balu was also suspended in the air, shouting loudly: "******, Carlin child, do you dare to stand still and let me try to split a hundred swords?"
Carlin jumped in the air and scolded, "Damn Baru, **** you... Mmmmmm If you have the ability, you will bring your army to attack me? See that my 20,000 mages will not smash your 280,000 army into meat sauce. ”
Balu waved his long sword and roared: "Karin, you little white face, an idiot who eats soft rice in the Smart Empire, an idiot who eats rice with the thighs of a Smart woman, you have the guts, you rush up with 20,000 magicians, ******, let your magicians compete with Lao Tzu's personal team, damn, let's compete in boxing, do you dare?"
Carlin was angry, his mouth trembled for a long time, and after a long time, a huge magic fluctuation suddenly surged out of his body, and the fire forbidden spell 'Fire God Annihilation' suddenly fell from the sky, and more than a dozen black pillars of fire bombarded, and the entire ground in the Li Xu radius was bombarded by more than a foot, and the morale of the Smart soldiers was greatly boosted, and they immediately roared loudly. Carlin exclaimed, triumphantly, panting, "Baru, Baru... , he, he, ******... There is a ability, alas, heh, heh... If you have the ability, you take 10,000 soldiers and Lao Tzu alone, and see how Lao Tzu plays you to death. ”
Balu laughed: "Idiot, idiot, will you stand still and let your forbidden spell bombard you as Lao Tzu's soldiers? How many forbidden spells can you use?Damn,You don't even have the strength to urinate now, right?Give Lao Tzu back to lie down and rest.,Otherwise, there are so many female magicians around you.,Save yourself from running out of strength tonight.,There's no way to satisfy them.。。。 Haha, your forbidden spell is powerful, you rush nearly two thousand feet to cast the forbidden spell for me, see if you are powerful in issuing magic, or Lao Tzu's strong crossbow is fast. ”
The soldiers of the Van Empire shouted wildly, clapping their palms and laughing. Their mid-air was much stronger than that of the Smart Imperial Army, and suddenly their shouts spread far away for more than ten miles. In the midst of the laughter, Carlin trembled with anger, and his almost exhausted magic could no longer hold it up, so he planted his head like this.
Fortunately, although the Smart Empire lacked an iron army to charge, there was absolutely no shortage of strong and weak magicians, and a group of magicians flew up, caught Carlin with all hands and feet, and escorted him towards the camp.
Balu laughed, put the sword back into the sheath, and fell to the ground triumphantly, he boasted: "Hehe, Lao Tzu doesn't dare to attack them, do they dare to attack Lao Tzu? Damn, this little white face scolds people in competition with our soldiers? Lao Tzu casually makes him dizzy? Everyone should be on guard, in case there is really a guy who is not afraid of death and rushes to put a high-level magic, we can't afford to eat it, hehe. ”
The Vants around him burst into laughter, and Ray laughed maniacally, he was so happy to see Carlin humiliated.
The soldiers of the Van Empire were laughing, and suddenly the sound of war drums sounded in the distance to the south. Immediately afterward, six military flags rose from below the horizon and fluttered high in the wind. Balu's complexion changed suddenly, and he exclaimed, "Red Scorpion, Black Snake, Vulture, Wolves, the four major guard legions of the Smart Empire, as well as the two Praetorian Legions of God's Wrath and God's Roar, which are directly under their royal family... Oh my God, the total strength of these six legions should be 300,000 people, and the combat effectiveness should not be underestimated. ”
A golden knight was stunned: "The elite troops of the Smart Empire should all be concentrated here." If these six legions were reinforced, then the four guerrilla legions in their imperial capital that had been fighting with us for so long would have nearly 200,000 people. ”
Balu took a long breath: "Look at the sky." ”
In the sky, densely packed, are countless magicians...
The high-ranking knights of the Van Empire all showed bitter expressions: "Could it be that the Smart Empire has summoned all the mages who can use the levitation technique? Aren't they afraid of their low-level mages, how many basic mages have been killed and wounded on the battlefield? Or rather, they must have the confidence to defeat us?"
In the military camp of the Smart Empire, Karin, who was lying on the bed and humming, got up with a bone, and he shouted loudly: "Haha, I guess I should have arrived, damn, I sent a letter the day before yesterday saying that the time was almost up, why are you moving so slowly? ”
With some difficulty, he walked out of the tent by the shoulders of a beautiful mage, and gave a loud order: "Okay, let them camp around our camp, and if that guy from Balu is going to fight hard, let them go as hard as they can... Well, order all the archers to assemble and fire a volley at me with the cooperation of the magician, and give them a little bit of power. ”
Balu watched the archers of the opposing brigade gathered, followed by the dense black-robed mages, and couldn't help but change his face slightly, and shouted: "Prepare the shield, they are going to give us a dismount... Hehe, this tactic has actually proven to be ineffective. However, if someone is accidentally injured, it is annoying. ”
The 20,000 archers lined up in forty neat rows, lined up and stood outside the camp of the Van Empire. Later, about a thousand meters of wind magicians sent out the 'Wind Technique' at the same time. So, in the howling wind, countless arrows were shot.
Driven by the strong wind, the dense arrows roared towards the camp of the Van Empire, and it looked terrifying. However, the mana of those mages was not equal, and the wind was of different sizes, causing countless turbulence in that strong wind, and as a result, those arrows were simply disturbed by the turbulent current, and they spun wildly in the air. There was a 'crackling' sound, and countless arrows struck the shields supported by the soldiers of the Van Empire. Except for a few arrows that were lucky enough to hit the shield directly, and were nailed to the shield due to the acceleration of the wind, all the other arrows fell to the ground.
Carlin looked at the scene in front of him helplessly, sighed and said: "Alas, when the old immortal teacher told me about this, I thought he was telling a joke, who knows, it turned out to be true, it seems that the magician has no way to cooperate with the archers to attack." ”
Several high-ranking mages around him were speechless, just to prove that his teacher of Lord Carlin was not lying, he wasted at least 200,000 arrows, which is an incredible thing for the commander of any country... But who called him Carlin? What else would anyone else dare to say?
Baru laughed loudly, "Carlin, thank you for sending me so many arrows, and I'll give them back to you." ”
Carlin lazily let out an amplification spell and replied, "You're welcome, you can keep it for yourself." ”
The more than a thousand magicians had reluctantly stopped, and the wind suddenly subsided. Just as the 20,000 archers were about to turn around and return to the camp, a group of Van soldiers rushed out of the camp at the command of Baru, and after a period of pursuit, before the Smart soldiers could turn around and draw their bows and shoot arrows, their bows and arrows were already whistling out. There was a terrible howl, and more than 500 Smart archers fell to the ground with arrows.
Balu laughed and got on his horse and roared, "Karin, I'll pay you back some now." ”
A scarlet military banner was unfurled, and a group of soldiers in dark red armor, led by hundreds of knights in blood-red armor, howled and rushed towards the group of archers of the Van Empire. With a wild laugh, Baru rode out, and a group of high-ranking knights rushed out after him, followed by Ray and about two thousand Vant's soldiers.
Dark red and silver streams collided together, and the first spark to splash was a collision between Baru and the knight in front of him. Baru's strange-shaped longsword and the opponent's two-handed greatsword slashed at each other, and Baru's body sat firmly on the saddle, while the knight was trembling and almost knocked off the horse by the huge impact.
The knight roared in a low voice, and Balu was unceremoniously sarcastic: "Red Scorpion Baddis, you are not my opponent, get out of the way." ”
Badis roared angrily and straightened up, and a sword slashed at Baru, and a terrible sword light swept behind Badis with a huge wind whistle, and the sharp knife momentum seemed to cut Badis in two. Bardis's two-handed sword was just about to collide with Balu's sword again, but he suddenly felt the cold air behind him, he roared in horror, forcibly twisted his body, and slashed down with his sword.
With a loud bang, the thunder knife that attacked Badis shattered, and the person flew and fell to the ground in embarrassment, while Badis's hands were slightly numb by the shock, he glanced at Thunder in surprise and exclaimed: "What a lot of strength, hey." ”
An even more powerful sword aura struck from behind Badis, and Bardis was shocked, oh my God, Balu was still behind him, why did he turn around and deal with this insignificant creep? What's so great about this creep? Can he split his own refined heavy armor? But Balu is different, he can definitely kill himself together.
What discouraged the Red Scorpion soldiers happened, their commander, the Red Scorpion Badis, the life-threatening general of the entire Smart Empire, jumped off the horse as soon as the muscles of his butt flicked, and with a 'poof' sound, Balu's long sword unceremoniously shaved about a pound of muscle off his relatively bulging buttocks, and then continued to slash down with the bloody long sword.
Badis cursed in anger and dragged his sword away. The sound of 'whew' was heard, but Ray didn't know where to find a stone the size of a human head and smashed it hard at Badis. At the same time, the smiling Balu saw that he couldn't catch up with Badis, who was running quickly, so he slashed out with an extremely dirty sword, and a white sword qi forcibly blocked the direction of Badis's dodge.
Badis roared angrily: "Baru, ****... With a 'bang', the stone thrown by the thunder fell on Badis's head, and Badis, who was lucky enough to protect himself, shattered the stone, but he still stumbled, and then rushed back to the camp with his soldiers.
The process of fighting between Bardis and Balu was too fast, and when Bardis was defeated and retreated, the high-ranking knights on both sides only slashed a few swords. In the midst of the sword qi, the seven red scorpion knights of the Smart Empire planted their horses, but the Van Empire did not suffer any casualties.
Karlin, who was watching the battle, wailed: "Oh my God, do you want me to lead such a soldier against such a fierce enemy? Fortunately, my wisdom alone can make up for the lack of the Empire's military strength, otherwise, alas... I'm a hard worker. In the imperial capital, I have to be busy in bed, and on the battlefield, I have to continue to work hard, who am I provoking?"
And Balu, who was showing off his might to the camp of the Smart Empire for a while, praised Lei: "Good boy, ******, you can catch up with our war horse barefoot." Your sprint power is about the same as that of a horse... Good boy, hehe, Badis was driven away by you, then, his war horse will be yours. Ha... Well, if it weren't for the family's refusal, I really wanted to teach you something. ”
Ray fell to his knees, thanked Baru, and happily pulled Badis's fiery red steed. The horse's temper seemed to be very irritable, and when he saw that the thunder had passed, he had two hooves against the thunder, but after the thunder smashed it with a few fists, the fierce horse finally calmed down. A good horse doesn't suffer immediate losses, doesn't it? Ray muttered in a low voice in his heart: "It's strange, I often chase a wild beast and chase several mountains, and it is nothing to catch up with horses, not to mention that I am still much slower than the general's horse, what is there to praise about this?"
The Vatican Empire's attacking army slowly retreated to the main camp. On the side of the Smart Imperial Army, although it received reinforcements from 300,000 troops, it had no intention of attacking. The Silver Wolf Legion and the private armies of those lords together also have a spectrum of 280,000 people, although the Smart Empire is the most elite army directly under the Empire, and the strength is stronger than those private armies, but if a full-scale attack will cause too many casualties after all, this is something that the Smart Empire cannot bear.
Karlin retreated to the camp in a fit of rage, kicked open a stake that stood in the way, and then jumped up quickly, criing out in pain while holding his foot.
The high-ranking knight of the Smart Empire, who was wearing full body gold armor and leading the six legions to come to the rescue, quickly chased after him with a horse whip, and he sneered and asked, "Ouch, dear Lord Carlin, your feet, it seems... His voice was crisp, sounding like a girl.
Tears were already welling up in Karlin's eyes, and he wailed, "Oh my God, Master Karoka, my toe seems to be broken. ”
Karoka, whose whole face was shrouded in a golden mask, was stunned for a moment, and pounced in panic, and simply hugged Carlin, and asked in surprise: "You, you, why are you so careless? What's going on? Carlin, you're so careless... What if your feet are real?"
Carlin smiled strangely at the sky, and he howled loudly, "Ahh I'm going to die of pain ... Woo woo, Master Karoka, no... My dear Carroca, take off your mask and show me your beautiful face ... Alas, the young master of our Imperial Minister of War is the first beauty of the Empire, which is really surprising. ”
Karoka scolded: "Shut up, who let you talk nonsense here... Hmph, I'm the number one beauty, and what about your little princess?"
Carlin chuckled, "Well, where is that girl so pretty?" ”
Karoka drank: "So, you made my rumors a while ago, how is this account calculated?"
Carlin quickly put his arm around her head and whispered in her ear, "Well, we'll figure it out later." Alas, think about it, what kind of jealousy are you eating with that little girl. When I become the emperor of the empire, you are all queens, I promise to love you more, don't you? Hehe, that girl has no breasts and no ass, how can she compare to my dear Karoca? Hehe, I spread rumors that you and I are competing for the position of commander-in-chief, aren't you just an idiot who deceived the Vant's Empire, who knew that the idiot with 530,000 soldiers was really deceived. ”
Karoka's body softened, and she chuckled softly, "So, I'll tell you something. Our great, holy, and wise Emperor, His Majesty, asks you, bastard, to give the southern provinces of the Van Empire as a dowry, or he will marry off the little princess immediately. ”
Carlin cursed in a low voice, "Damn, why didn't he die? His youngest concubine was only sixteen years old, right? Die early, the world is peaceful early... Hmm, don't screw my ears, hey, hey, hey, what are you pulling me to the tent for, in broad daylight, if you want to ravage me, you have to wait until it gets dark... Hey, I see, you're ... Hey, hey, hey, I confess, my plan is almost successful, don't you pull it, pull off my ears, don't you feel distressed?"
Talking nonsense, Carlin had already rushed into the tent with Caroka in his arms. Immediately, the Karoka family and the knights of the Karlin family's guards surrounded the tent, and on the outer floor, the high-ranking mages who were loyal to Carlin put on an inviolable expression. Although in terms of formation, these people happened to stand in the opposite position, but anyway, there were 500,000 troops surrounding outside, and these knights and mages could stand as they pleased. Anyway, everyone knows that they are just showing their loyalty in front of Karin and Karoka, so don't worry too much.
On the side of the Van Empire, Balu sat in the big tent of the Chinese army with a solemn face. He frowned and pondered: "Strange, if they want to break through our defenses, why don't they attack us while the army has just come to help and morale is high?"
Meko muttered, "Perhaps, they're too tired to walk? You can see that even the most elite legions of the Smart Empire are a little weaker than the Silver Wolf Legion." ”
Balu smiled bitterly: "That being said, after all, their strength is not weaker than our other armies, right? Alas, knowing that this would be the case, I brought with me ten thousand heavy cavalry and fifteen thousand heavy infantry, and the remaining ten thousand light infantry. Alas... ”
The people in the tent were speechless, among the 300,000 Smart Imperial troops who came to help, they roughly estimated that there were more than 80,000 cavalry, which was a very terrifying force, and it was difficult to say whether those private army corps could withstand their onslaught. The simultaneous charge of 80,000 cavalry is a tingling sight to think about, and this is not a gap that can be made up by relying on the superiority of infantry numbers.
Balu looked at the legion leaders of those lords, and said almost sarcastically: "If your lords, their financial officers can be less corrupt and can use the military funds allocated by the lords more on the right path, I am afraid that you can at least organize a team of 25,000 heavy cavalry, right?"
An old regiment commander smiled helplessly: "A good war horse is fifteen gold coins, a good set of steel armor is fifty gold coins, and a pure steel bayonet gun is no less than ten gold coins... We don't have to be ready for war all the time, so why should we have such a heavy cavalry team?"
Balu shrugged his shoulders, nodded, and stopped talking. Suddenly, there was silence in the tent.
After a long time, Mei Ke sighed: "Hope, I hope the imperial capital can get our military intelligence report as soon as possible, those heralds have been on departure for eight days, and they should arrive anyway." ”
Balu muttered under his breath, "I hope someone arrives." However, he did not let anyone else hear this, except for Thunder, who stood beside him and held the sword for him.
Inside Carlin's tent, the disheveled man wantonly put his hands on Karoka's **** body and muttered in a low voice, "Is your father sure that all the troops are loyal to him?"
Karoka laughed in a low voice: "Don't worry, all the generals are his subordinates, and they are all drawn by him, except for the sarin who was inserted into the Van Empire, and a group of other Van knights, the entire Imperial Army is now my father's." ”
Carlin laughed: "Then, great, I will make Shalin disappear, tomorrow I will order him to attack the camp of the Silver Wolf Legion alone, if he doesn't go, I will cut off his head." ”
Karoka's extremely beautiful face was filled with a heart-stirring smile, and she smiled softly, "Stupid, you can't be too obvious." Hee-hee... Uncle wants me to tell you, you should be careful, after all, the battlefield is dangerous, that's why I want to protect you... Hehe, after testing, my strength is not weaker than the Golden Fourth-Order Knight of the Van Empire, and no one in the Imperial Capital knows that I am such a great master. ”
Karin nodded repeatedly: "That's good, hehe, damn Balu, if it weren't for my plan to be carried out, you could give him a good look tomorrow, hum, how dare you scold me so fiercely? Hehe, if I inject more than a dozen high-level magic into your weapon, I don't know how he died... However, this is my biggest secret, except for the teacher and myself, you are the only one in the entire continent who knows that my magic can be free from any metal restrictions. ”
Karoka snorted: "You're so angry... Hmph, it's just a useless trick, and unless you find the best magic crystal, your skills are of no use. A high-ranking knight will not be seriously injured by the sudden magic on the opponent's weapon... What do those two teams that have been resting for so long say?"
Karin buried his head in Karoka's chest and said vaguely, "They replied that the three lords have received good news from this side and are now beginning to relax. Tomorrow we will be defeated, hehe, the 500,000 army will be defeated, which is a difficult thing. However, feeling the low combat effectiveness of the Smart Imperial Army, I don't think the enemy will doubt it... ”
The vicious light in Karoka's eyes flashed, and she said gloomily: "This time it was the 300,000 private army of those eight old guys who followed Badis and them, hmph, it's good to let them die a few more people, just to reassure Balu and them, and then, as long as those Vantas lords know the news of their victory, they will definitely set up a celebration wine." But, Carlin, my dear, how could you come up with such a good idea?"
Carlin didn't take credit in front of Karoka, he smiled and said, "Thanks to my teacher, he invented a wide range of illusion magic to hide hundreds of thousands of troops... Hehe, Balu can't imagine that the real six elite legions of the imperial capital are not here with me at all, right? Hmph, it's better to die more of those private soldiers, so as not to pose a threat to my rule in the future, damn, those eight old guys, if they don't see their daughters still have a little bit of beauty, they can be your maids in the future, even if they are dukes, I will ask my father to frame them and put them in prison. ”
Karoka sighed absentmindedly and said softly, "Thank God, hehe, our majesty only has a daughter, that's why you bastard got a chance." ”
Carlin also laughed: "Aren't you happy, my dear? You will be the Empress of the Empire in the future... If I were the Emperor of the Empire, I would definitely greatly increase the investment of the army, hmph, if I had five Silver Wolf Legions under my command, plus our bottomless team of magicians in the Smart Empire, I would have been able to sweep the entire continent long ago... Give me ten years and I'll be able to do it. ”
There were some subtle sounds from the tent, and when the knights outside the tent heard this, they immediately took three steps outside in unison, and unceremoniously pushed the magicians back three steps.
Early the next morning, a refreshed Carlin held a black crystal wand, riding crookedly on a black war horse in a small song popular in the imperial capital, and rode to the front of the camp with a smile. He raised his hand and three thunderbolts slashed down from the sky, and he roared loudly: "Balu, have you ****** awake? Damn, brothers, give Lao Tzu Chong, whoever cuts off Balu's head, I will ask His Majesty to make him a baron. ”
After a pause, Carlin drank extremely indecently: "If anyone cuts off his other head, I will ask Your Majesty to make him a marquis... Brothers, rush... ”
Karoka beside him had already taken off her mask, her long golden hair fluttered casually in the morning breeze of the Breeze Plain, she held a slender red sword, and her face was like a flower, and she smiled coquettishly: "Balu, Balu, the silver wolf of Fanth, Balu, you come out." ”
Balu appeared behind the wooden fence of the Vant's camp, he sank into the water, waved his arm slightly, and immediately, the whole Vant's camp, which looked round, poked out of the wooden fence with dense spears, and the whole thing looked like a hedgehog. In the morning breeze, there was the 'crunch' of the crossbowmen winding the crossbows that were designed to deal with magicians...
Ray clutched the machete in his hand tightly, and his muscles trembled uncontrollably. He asked himself in his heart: "Damn, Ray, are you excited? Are you happy to encounter such a big battle? Are you looking forward to how many people can be killed by yourself?" After a while, he smiled bitterly in his heart: "Damn, you can't deceive yourself, I'm afraid... Afraid, scared ... Am I afraid of being killed?。。。 Mom... I don't know if the grass in my field has been removed?"
A hand hit Lei's shoulder heavily, Lei turned his head to look, and a silver third-order knight whispered expressionlessly: "Lei, remember, you must remember." If you don't want to be killed, kill your enemies ... The founding monarch of the Van Empire said that if we could kill all our enemies, then we would never have to fear our enemies again... The best enemy is the dead enemy ... For the sake of your own life, for the honor of some other empire, kill your enemies, understand?"
Lei nodded heavily, he took a long breath, and a trace of internal qi suddenly permeated his whole body, and his muscles gradually softened, no longer trembling. A strange elastic force filled his muscles, and he could burst into a powerful explosive force at any time.
In the past few days, Lei has insisted on constantly exercising the internal qi in his body, plus he has to go out on patrol every day, and he can often move his body with the Smart Imperial Soldiers, and his physique at the moment has been much stronger than before, and it can even be seen that his muscle fibers are a little thicker.
At this moment, Lei took a group of silver wolf soldiers to stand there, one by one snorting and panting, waiting for the next battle, it looked like a group of beasts.
When Carlin saw that the camp of the Silver Wolf Legion was ready, he waved his wand weakly and ordered: "Okay, go up for me, don't lose my face... Hehe, my subordinates have been too tired in the last few days, so this task of cooperating with the attack of the army will be handed over to Mage Colonso, huh?"
An old mage with a beard hanging down to his lower abdomen nodded, smiled and said, "Carlin, you look good. Hehe, as long as the army in front of us resists a little, we can give each other a devastating blow. ”
Carlin shrugged his shoulders and smiled. As soon as Kronso flew away, he cursed in a low voice in place: "******, damn it, don't I know, you eight archdukes have privately opened a magician academy in your territory, otherwise how can the territory of the eight provinces find so many magicians, I'm just going to let you go and have fun." Anyway, it's not my direct subordinate, and I'm distressed. ”
Carlin stroked his smooth wand slightly, and there was a strange glint in his eyes that looked hilarious and wished that someone else would be unlucky. Several high-level mages behind him sneered, and watched with disdain as Colonso, who was also a seventh-order Diamond Dragon, sneaked forward with a group of mages mixed in with a large number of heavy infantry.
Karoka sighed, "Legend has it that during the Battle of the Gods in ancient times, the most powerful mages could unleash devastating forbidden spells from a hundred miles away. And now, you have to get close to a thousand feet or so to unleash powerful magic, really... ”
Carlin looked aggrieved: "Maybe those damn gods are trying to balance our strength." If our empire now had such a mage, the entire continent would have been covered with the banner of the Smart Empire. But Karoka, you also have to think that in ancient legends, the most powerful holy knight could split a mountain with a single sword, and now you can split a house, we are each other. ”
Caroka was so angry that she elbowed Carlin in the waist, and Carlin howled, and the attack of the Smart Empire had begun.
Eight teams of troops rushed towards the main camp of the Silver Wolf Legion from eight directions, and four of the heavy cavalry frantically pounced on the spears in front of them.
In the camp of the Silver Wolf Legion, the spears that stood out shrank back a few feet, and then quickly stabbed out. The 'snort' was loud, and countless cavalry were pierced by the people and horses, and fell to the ground with a miserable howl. The spears didn't have time to retract, and a new group of cavalry roared and rushed over, their huge chains, rods, and hammers flashing with a chilling black light.
Balu roared, and in the camp, a group of tall soldiers armed with heavy battle axes, hammers and other heavy weapons, under the cover of soldiers wielding new spears, rushed to the wooden fence. The cavalrymen roared and smashed their heavy weapons into the wooden spears, the barrels of which broke one after another, and then, with the force of the impact, they twisted their waists and smashed the heavy weapons in their hands into the wooden fence.
'Dang dang dang', a loud sound like striking iron sounded. The weapons of those cavalry were hit hard with those of the silver wolf soldiers, and the silver wolf soldiers could not bear the heavy impact and retreated, but those cavalry were also pierced in the chest by the spears that followed. Although the weapons of about two hundred cavalry still smashed heavily on the wooden fence, smashing the thick wooden bowl to pieces, but after all, the Silver Wolf Legion arranged several layers of thick wooden fences, so the impact was not great.
Four groups of light and heavy infantry quickly approached the wooden fence. Balu snapped, "Defeat them." Smart garbage... ”
Thunder roared, followed closely by a few silver knights rushed out, behind him, five thousand silver wolf soldiers howled, like a tide.
Colonso was in the group of Smart soldiers that they were impacting, and seeing a large number of silver wolf soldiers rushing over, Colonso and they laughed proudly, Come on, come on, just a little time, you will die. They've begun to chant spells, ready to unleash more powerful, massive, lethal magic.
A few silver knights swung their swords cleanly, slashing, and the leader of this group of Smart soldiers was cut to the ground, and then, several silver knights rushed in with a roar like bloodthirsty wolves. The sword light roared, blood rained down, and the heads and arms of Smart's soldiers fell one after another, looking so scary.
Colonso and the others were stunned, how could this be? Thunder snapped, and the machete in his hand slashed heavily, and the extra large machete, which was too heavy, split a Smart light infantry company with a sword into two pieces. Five thousand silver wolf soldiers roared at the same time, and more than a thousand people at the front slashed hard, and the Smart Imperial Army suddenly couldn't stand still, and retreated back in embarrassment, and even a large number of magicians were loosened by them.
Thunder and they marched forward like hot and snowy, where could those light infantry resist them? However, the heavy infantry of the Smart Empire quickly met them, and their movement speed was relatively slow, so they dragged behind the light infantry. At this moment, seeing that the Thunder Mad Tiger rushed over with a group of people, they suddenly roared, raised their spears diagonally, and rushed forward quickly.
Ray has been stimulated by the smell of blood around him, the veterans have said that on the battlefield, there is something called blood, which can stimulate all the people to fight for their lives, the more dead and wounded, the more powerful this strange thing is, which is why the battle together, the losing side has few living people, and everyone is killed by the red-eyed enemy. At this moment, it seemed that the ethereal, unknown blood had played a role, Lei was sweating all over his body, his eyes were red, he was at the peak of his physical strength, and he rushed over with a machete.
The heavy infantry of the Smart Empire let out a sinister laugh, such an idiot in light iron armor actually rushed towards the dense field of guns?
Their spears had been raised, just waiting to enjoy the sight of the thunder being lifted into the air. And those silver knights have already rushed over, and they can easily do what Lei can't do. White fighting spirit flickered, and their long swords slashed through the pure steel spears. The heavy infantry in pure black steel armor screamed, and Ray had already smirked and rushed into their ranks with a flash of sword. It wasn't thunder, it was countless Vant's Silver Wolf soldiers who rushed in with a smirk.
What can a severed spear do? Can it stab someone? It can't be pierced, can it be used as a long stick to hit people? It's too long, and it doesn't turn well. These heavy infantry suddenly fell into an embarrassing situation...
The sword flashed, and one by one the heavy infantry fell.
With a flash of firelight, a ball of magic exploded near the thunder, and the powerful impact sent his body staggering several steps. But it was Colonso, who was pushed backwards, that they subconsciously launched a magic bullet attack regardless of the life or death of their soldiers. These magic bullets exploded in the heavy cavalry group, but these guys in heavy iron armor invisibly brought good luck to the Van Empire, they were too solid and heavy, and the power of the magic bullets was reduced by half by them.
And Thunder, falling into the nightmare of that night, filled his heart with a deep, sticky, cold object that seemed to crawl over him in the middle of the night, as if he had been sleeping in the middle of the night. . . Such a strong fear that Ray almost fainted... However, Ray, who was already on the verge of madness, reluctantly endured this deep fear, and he became completely crazy.
The magic bullet exploded, and Ray strode like a ghost, rushing through rows of Smart hoplites at a speed comparable to that of a horse, and rushed headlong into Colonso's ranks. The knife flashed.
Colonso, who was holding a magic bullet in his fingers, only felt that the figure in front of him flashed, and before he could react, he had a wonderful feeling. Why, how can I see a scene of 360 degrees? By the way, these scenes are still moving... It's strange ... Then, his consciousness vanished.
The magicians who were panicking and handing out magic balls suddenly saw that Colonso was beheaded by a Vant, and they were all stunned, this, how is this possible?
However, they didn't have time to think about it, and under the leadership of a few silver knights, the Silver Wolf Legion paid the price of more than 2,000 casualties, broke through the resistance of 10,000 light infantry and 5,000 heavy infantry, and had already rushed into their ranks. The light of the sword, the light of the sword, those magicians howled miserably, these guys who had no melee ability, under the hands of these crazy Fanta soldiers, they were like melons and fruits.
Those high-level mages who drill dragons, all of them were frightened, they used to be high in their own territory, and they were all in power, where had they ever seen such a terrifying scene? Think about it, a guy covered in blood and stained with some fresh, hot human parts, with a bloody machete chasing them less than a meter behind them, can they not be afraid?
Where had they ever seen real blood, in the old days, they could turn an enemy to ashes a thousand feet away with a flick of their little fingers, where had they ever seen such a scene? God, what about the Smart Imperial Army? They, why are they gone... Damn, who are those people who are running so fast? How can those guys, wearing hundreds of pounds of steel armor, still run faster than themselves?
These magicians were running on the ground in embarrassment, but they were not able to run? Less than fifty meters away, they were overtaken by the silver wolf soldiers, and then they turned into ghosts under the sword.
A frightened high-level mage suddenly remembered: "God, don't I know how to fly? What am I running?" He quickly chanted the spell, and flew up with a gust of wind, and the eyes of the other mages lit up, yes, I can fly, why should I run?
A large number of mages flew up one after another, and a sixth-order mage of the Diamond Dragon sneered and looked down: "Damn it, can you still catch up with us?" So, he saw a heavy machete, and chased after him with a sound of wind, he subconsciously flew a little higher, so the machete, which was about to penetrate his waist, brushed through his lower body mercilessly.
The mage only felt a chill in his lower body, and seemed to be a lot more relaxed, and a stream of hot air leaked out along the lost piece of the treasure meat tower. He let out a terrible howl and his head fell out of the air. Lei Hehe, who had just thrown out the machete, sneered, rushed up, and smashed his brain with an old fist, only then did he grab his body and tear it apart from the middle.
Blood rained down, and the bloody scene made the nearby Smart soldiers tremble, and they slowly retreated. From afar, Carlin shivered as he looked at the sixth-order mage who had been torn in half by the thunder. His mouth trembled a little and said, "Karoka, it's great that you're here... Oh my God, I'm not going to do it myself anymore, these guys from the Van Empire are all crazy... ”
Karoka also frowned, slowly reached out and hugged Carlin's waist, and Wen Yan comforted her.
Thunder roared angrily, and was about to continue the pursuit with blood all over his body, but a heavy blow from a silver knight made him sober up, and seeing that his companions were preparing to return to the camp, he nodded again and again, and followed the silver knight silently. On the way, another knight smiled and handed Ray a good wide sword that could be used as a machete, and exclaimed: "The knights of the Smart Empire are a bit rubbish in their personal strength, but the weapons are not bad, Ray, this sword belongs to you." ”
In the distance, Baru gave a thumbs up to Raybi, who had already received a report that Ray had killed two top magicians. It's a matter of luck, but even luck is a credit. What's more, who could have such a speed like thunder and rush through the cracks of the army into the ranks of other mages? Who could have such good luck and cut off the head of a seventh-order mage who drilled the dragon with a single sword?
Balu laughed in a low voice and joked with the golden knights beside him: "Fortunately, there are not many soldiers like Lei in the entire empire, otherwise where would we have so many bounties? The knights laughed, and the commanders of those private army legions looked at Lei with disdain, he was just a lucky person who had mastered the basic cultivation method of Douqi, his strength should be several times stronger than ordinary soldiers now, plus the body that he had cultivated by hunting in the mountains and forests, it was difficult to think of outstanding.
These commanders firmly believed that if they themselves rushed out, the results would definitely be more brilliant than Ray's. However, how precious his body is, let these soldiers fight.
Carlin shouted dissatisfied, scolding the Smart officers and soldiers to lower their heads and not dare to speak. The leaders of the six legions and several of their subordinate senior knights stood behind Carlin with expressionless faces, anyway, it was not their own legion, so they didn't feel distressed. And they also knew that Carlin was going to use the hand of the Van Empire to weaken the strength of these private legions, and they were happy to see the excitement.
Although these guys are not very strong personally, they still have a good appreciation for a battle plan, and they approve of Carlin's plan, believing that it is difficult for the Vatican Empire to turn over from this plan. After all, this plan has been secretly operating for five years, five years ago, Carlin was just a little guy learning magic in the temple of the god of wisdom, that is, Carlin at that time, jokingly said this plan, and the first prime minister was too fond of Carlin, so he simply allocated special funds for the implementation of the plan. Now, it's time to harvest.
For this plan, they even used the extremely deep spies buried in the Vatican Empire, and now, it is time for the result.
Carlin insulted the officers and soldiers who had been driven back with heavy casualties, and then waved his wand and said with a cruel smile, "Charge me again... ”
Are these people of the private army army stunned and charged without the slightest rectification?
But Karoka had already swirled her blood-red long sword in her hand, the captains of the six elite legions and more than three hundred high-ranking knights also held the hilt of the sword, the soldiers of the warlord team and the four guerrilla legions were also eyeing them, and the black robes on the high-ranking mages directly under the 20,000 imperial capitals also began to flutter... These private troops, who had become officers and soldiers of the six legions, were helpless, and slowly continued to rush towards the camp of the Silver Wolf Legion.
Wave, wave, wave and wave ... In just six hours, Balu commanded his soldiers to withstand seven frantic onslaughts. Many times, the mages had rushed in and unleashed powerful magic that inflicted heavy casualties on the Silver Wolf Legion and the rest of the legions. Although those outlaw mages were quickly killed by strong crossbows, but a single mage killed and wounded hundreds of soldiers, how can this battle be fought?
The sun was setting slowly, and Balu, who had already personally led the troops to rush out and kill several times, sighed: "It's the last time, it's the last time today... What is Karlin doing? Are you going to fight my defenses? So, come on, dear little mage, come on, I won't let you through without leaving a few mouthfuls of flesh and blood... Imperial capital, I hope to receive my military intelligence report... Why didn't the secret agents from the Xili Province come to me to learn about the military situation? Could it be that the secret agent system has also been infiltrated?"
As the sun set, the Plain of Breeze was shrouded in a layer of blood, and Carlin hastily mobilized his army, commanding the exhausted army to rush towards the camp of the Silver Wolf Legion.
Balu sighed: "After all, we are magicians, we don't know how to fight, we are in the big camp, we can let the soldiers repair at any time, as long as a little soldier can defend, but they have to keep attacking and attacking, don't you know, if the soldiers have no strength, they will lose?"
Balu looked at the sky and gritted his teeth: "Don't fight too hard, wait until it gets dark, and then we will defeat them and break through their camp." Assault the whole army, give them a little bit of power. At night, I don't believe that their magicians would dare to attack indiscriminately with magic. ”
The officers and soldiers around took the order, held the hilt of the knife tightly, and looked at the Smart army in front.
Another clash of flesh and metal, this time, Ray slowed down the speed of slashing, carefully attracting the Smart army outside the camp, not letting them advance a bit, but definitely not letting them have a chance to retreat easily. The entire battalion of the Silver Wolf Legion, like a meat grinder made of a magnet, mercilessly attracted a large number of Smart soldiers and slowly slaughtered them.
Balu led a group of elite knights and soldiers, ghostly haunted the battlefield, where they appeared, there was a bloody storm, countless Smart soldiers were cut down by them, and after a large number of these soldiers were killed, they quietly disappeared and appeared in another fierce battle location.
The strong crossbows against the mages were secretly transported out of the camp by the soldiers, and under the protection of countless soldiers, they ruthlessly assassinated those black-robed mages, and the powerful crossbow arrows were still able to kill three or five light infantry wearing leather armor after passing through the bodies of those mages. Wherever the crossbow bolts passed, there was a wave of blood. After all, this is a terrible weapon that can penetrate an inch of iron, if it weren't for the fact that the cost is too high and the craftsmanship required is too high, the Van Empire would have loved to have such a monster weapon in its hands.
It was getting dark, and the soldiers on the battlefield could only see the enemy not far from them. Carlin muttered, "Come on, don't let me down." ”
Balu waved his hand lightly, and the three private army legions of 120,000 people, who had been recuperating in the camp all day, roared out of the camp.
As a result, Smart's Imperial Army collapsed, and they fled in disarray, and a large number of soldiers rushed towards Karin's camp in despair. Carlin nodded, waved the wand in his hand, and the four guerrilla regiments, under the subtle control of the six elite army commanders, were less than fifty meters ahead of these outlaw soldiers, and fled first.
Carlin was on his horse, smirking, smirking. He muttered, "Well, I've lost a big battle, and today, at least 70,000 people have been killed or wounded, right?"
Karoka nodded easily: "It's not my soldier anyway, I don't feel distressed." ”
Carlin smiled, rode his horse with a large number of escort knights and high-ranking mages, and roared back south. Balu roared and led countless Van soldiers to chase down the fleeing Smart soldiers, under Carlin's deliberate actions, how could the Smart Imperial Army, which had been exhausted, outrun these wolf-like Van soldiers? I don't know how many Smart soldiers were beheaded in the night.
As the first rays of moonlight fell, a very exhausted Smart soldier fell to his knees, and he surrendered. However, his head was immediately cut off by Lei, and Lei roared wildly: "Bastard, you killed my 530,000 companions, don't take prisoners." ”
More Smart soldiers fell to their knees, but the Van Army, who heard Thunder's roar, cut off their heads silently. Gradually, all the Van soldiers learned what they did, and all the soldiers who fell to their knees and surrendered were cut to corpses by the roaring Van army.
Balu didn't speak, he could vaguely hear Thunder's roar, and he acquiesced to what the soldiers were doing. In this situation, it is dangerous to take prisoners, and he must separate a part of the soldiers to take in the prisoners, which is dangerous, and he simply kills them.
Pursuit, pursuit, constant pursuit, escape, escape, constant escape.
In one night, after chasing for two hundred and fifty miles, the Smart army had no strength, and the Van Empire army, which was frantically slashing, had no strength, and the two sides confronted each other across a blood-red river. In one night, 80,000 heads were cut off by Smart's Imperial Army, and with the initial casualties of more than 70,000 people, half of the 300,000 troops they had come to the aid of the Imperial Capital had already been lost.
Karin stroked his numb ass that was bumping on the saddle, and smiled bitterly: "The losses are more than I expected, the Van Imperial Army is worthy of being the most powerful legion in the continent... Damn it. ”
Barumer gave the order silently, and he asked the soldiers to slowly maintain their formation and retreated, leaving the confrontational river. He was already satisfied with the results he had achieved so far, and there was no need to risk any more to pursue greater credit. What's more, his Silver Wolf Legion also suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and the casualties of other private legions were also about 40,000, so he had to go back to save the wounded. In any case, the remaining armies of the Smart Empire are still stronger than them, and a rash attack is dangerous.
When Balu was still reorganizing his army on the Qingfeng Plain, the commanders of those private legions couldn't wait to deliver the good news of a great victory.
Two days later, the three dukes who received the good news were overjoyed, and they sent a small number of left-behind troops led by their relatives to reinforce Balu's legions, under the slogan of resisting the invading army together, in fact, they let their sons, nephews, nephews, grandsons, and other young nobles snatch military merits, so that they could be knighted in the future, right?
At the same time, the three provinces celebrated vigorously, and everyone drank bitterly to celebrate the great victory at the front.
Less than six hours after their last troops were dispatched, they had long been lying in ambush on their border, gnawing on dry food for more than a month under the cover of illusion magic, and the six legions of the truly elite Smart Imperial Capital took advantage of the night, taking advantage of those last little bit of city defense to get drunk, and launched a surprise attack from the southwest and southeast directions.
Overnight, the four southern provinces of the Van Empire changed hands at the same time, and the Xili Province was occupied by the Red Scorpion and the Black Snake Legion, completely closing the possible retreat path of the Silver Wolf Legion. At the same time, Smart's six legions increased the city defenses of the cities they occupied overnight, ready to intercept reinforcements from the imperial capital of the Van Empire.
The Vatican Empire, the government and the opposition are shaken.
His Majesty Shagru was pulled up from Mrs. Green by the furious Minister of War, and Shagru, who had received the exact military information, sat down on the ground on the spot, and he quickly granted the Minister of War full authority to mobilize all the legions of the Empire, but it seemed to be a little too late, because the troops of the Smart Empire were constantly moving from the country to the southern provinces of the Van Empire, which were the recruits they had recruited...
