Chapter 59 [Cutting Pupils] Before the war

There is no problem with the development of things so far, although the ratio of troops is 100,000 to 100,000, and in the fortress city to be attacked, in addition to the army, there are also 300,000 aliens. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Because the alien ethnic groups in the north live in a harsh winter environment all year round, and the people are brave and brave and martial arts, these 300,000 people are also a big obstacle.

However, even with the disadvantages of attacking fortifications, inferior troops, and unsuitable winter weather, the Imperial Army still did not think that it would lose.

This is not only due to the sufficient supply of imperial materials and the advantage of gunpowder weapons over cold weapons, but also because they are led by General Estes, who is known as the "Twin Walls of the Empire" and has won all battles.

Because of the terrifying prestige she had accumulated through her undefeated crusades in the empire, no one had any doubts about victory on this expedition.

However, after the 100,000 troops arrived at the border, the situation in the imperial capital changed drastically, the minister Ernest was given to death, and the little emperor regained his power, abolished the bad government, and implemented the policy of reducing taxes and levies, and recuperating.

This is naturally a great thing for the people of the empire, but not necessarily for the army that is on the levy.

Although Estes is not a party of ministers, he is also a cooperative relationship with him, plus he leads an army of 100,000 outside......

Let's ask, how can the group of people in the imperial capital not be afraid? This destabilizing factor is too great to surprise the central part of the empire in any way it is to say that it is not surprising what kind of countermeasures the center of the empire takes.

"What else? It is nothing more than a message of the emperor's cordial condolences, believing that the traitor Earnest has nothing to do with our army. ”

Regarding the question of his subordinates, Estes supported his head with his hands and said with a rather boring feeling.

But hearing this, the officers present were as if they had been amnestied, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, the empire has accumulated power for thousands of years, even if the country has been declining in the past hundred years, not many people can ignore it.

For them, it is naturally best for the imperial capital to not blame the past, otherwise if they are beaten as a traitor, they really don't know how to choose.

"Okay, let's not talk about these boring things, the enemy we have to face now is still the northern alien people."

Then, she picked up a report in her hand and read:

"Numa Seka, prince of a strange people of the north, has never been defeated when he has a gun in his hand, has a terrible situational strategy, and is deeply trusted by his subjects."

After reading this passage, a sadistic smile appeared on Estes's face, and his cold eyes became even more cruel and ruthless.

"I can't wait for such a superior prey."

She stood up and said in a high tone: "Pass my order, immediately raise the army and march north!" ”

…………

The long flowing river, the violent wind and snow, and the majestic and rugged city in the distance, this is the north of the empire, the territory of a foreign people.

But in this icy and snowy environment, there is a figure standing in front of the great river.

He was rugged and muscular, wearing only a single coat, and stood here as if he didn't feel the cold.

At this time, in the wind and snow, I faintly saw a figure walking this way, this figure seemed to be fast and slow, but a few breaths were parallel to this rough man.

This newcomer is wrapped in an overcoat, and his appearance is just ordinary, but the elegant temperament exuded by his body, and the eyes full of wisdom through the vicissitudes of life, also show that he is not simple.

The two stood side by side, looking at the snow-covered northern scenery, at this time.

"Numa Seka is done."

As soon as the elegant man came here, he spoke amazingly.

In this war of the empire against foreign peoples, the number of belligerents reached more than 200,000.

On one side is General Estes, who is known as the "strongest in the Empire", while on the other side is an alien prince known as the "Brave of the North", Numa Seka.

The large-scale war, the famous generals, this battle can be said to have attracted the attention of the entire continent, from the princes and nobles to the peddlers and pawns, almost everyone has talked about it.

But when the two sides have not yet exchanged forces, dare to assert victory or defeat? If this matter is known to others, I am afraid that it will only laugh at its wild words and grandstanding.

However, the rugged man he had worked with for a long time knew that this man never said anything that he was not sure about.

And since he asserted so, there is basically a more than ninety percent possibility, but although he believes his judgment, this rough man still has some doubts.

"Didn't you just praise him when you met him yesterday, and he deserves to be a hero of both wisdom and bravery?"

"In terms of your arrogance, he must have some strength, why did you assert that he would definitely be defeated after only one day?"

The rugged man frowned and couldn't help asking.

"Oh, Numa Seka is indeed a smart man, but it is precisely because he is smart that he is difficult to convince."

The elegant figure put his hand on his forehead, smiled bitterly, and sighed:

"But it's no wonder that in terms of common sense, there is no problem with his battle strategy, and he decisively gave up when the city wall was insufficient, and chose to rely on the long river to defend."

"And the long river runs through half the continent, and it is impossible to bypass it, and the ships are impassable in the face of the rushing waves, and it destroys all the bridges nearby, so this kind of defense can really be called peace of mind."

The rugged man wasn't stupid either, and he understood it all when he said this.

"Indeed, this location is really good, I am afraid that this city was built with this kind of combat in mind."

"In general, this plan is indeed incomprehensible, but he could never imagine what kind of monster he is facing."

After the rugged man muttered these words, the two of them were speechless for a while.

After a long time, the figure with an elegant temperament spoke again: "I am not a combatant, the so-called gentleman does not stand under the wall, there is no point in staying here, I am leaving." ”

As if expected, the rugged man was not surprised, but nodded.

"You deserve to go, but I'm here to stay."

"Do you know what you're doing?!"

Suddenly hearing the news, he was completely shocked, and his elegant temperament was completely gone, and he said a little out of control.

"Don't put on such an expression, I've thought about it carefully."

The rugged man looked serious. "You must also know that my strength has reached the bottleneck of this level."

"Relying on the nightmare space to break through, I'm afraid my savings are far from enough."

Speaking of this, he smiled casually: "I can only take some risks." ”

Having said that, others can't persuade anything anymore, although the two have a good relationship, but if they continue to talk about it, they still have a deep relationship after all.
