Chapter 829: Unacceptable Conditions
The emperor's cup of wine released the military power, which solved the problem of the military generals supporting the army and rebelling for thousands of years, but the result was far more serious than the military general's self-respect, after all, the military general's rebellion can still be suppressed, but the martial emperor in the north, how to suppress it?
The Spirit Emperor is not really mediocre, but no matter how wise the emperor is, no matter how centralized the power, no matter how harsh the rule, he can't defeat a lofty and intangible thing after all, this kind of thing is called the legacy of the emperor.
The dead rules set by the founding emperor, as well as the huge institutional inertia and social inertia formed under these rules, are not at all something that the Spirit Emperor can change, and it is almost impossible to even try. In the country under the rule of Emperor Ling, the civil official group has formed a number of groups with great power, such as the Hou Party, the Eunuch Party, the Donglin Party, and so on, and outside of these groups, the contempt and ridicule of the generals and soldiers by ordinary people and warriors are more irresistible than any vested interest groups, not to mention, even those who serve as soldiers themselves think that they are in charge of cheap business! The entire empire, in the hands of the Emperor Ling, is almost impossible to change the trajectory of its operation.
And hearing Han Shuang's sad sarcasm, the Spirit Emperor was even more firm in his thoughts, but instead relaxed, and said with a smile: "Listening to your tone, it seems that I have been wronged first, I may not notice it for a while, and I may not be able to be deceived by the villain, why do you have to wronged yourself and be willing to be a minion among the mountain bandits! Then Uncle Zhao Guang is only more than 20,000 people in the sky, and it is not easy to control the Soul Refining Mountain, even if it is in the situation of the princes competing for hegemony in the future, he will not be able to become the climate! You are still very talented, why do you want to hide your identity in front of me? What kind of holy lord should you serve that ridiculous bandit king, and what kind of generalissimo do you call yourself?! If you are willing to abandon the darkness tonight, why can't I make you the generalissimo tomorrow?"
"Are you insulting me!" Han Shuang seemed to hear the Spirit Emperor's rebellious words, but became even more angry: "What is the use of rehabilitating Zhao Xue?! You can't resurrect the dead!" he roared, and the wind suddenly let go, and the huge pressure even made the Spirit Emperor almost fall to his knees!
"You! you're so stubborn!" the Spirit Emperor scolded, but there was still a strong sense of defeat and decadence in his tone.
He lost, in the end, he lost cleanly, the whole hunt, the transfer of troops, and the arrangement of a series of measures, after all, it was not as good as Uncle Zhao Guang's desperate gamble, and the tiger's mouth and buckteeth were very ruthless! In this game, he lost all the games, if it wasn't for the queen's cleverness and meticulousness, and laid the last resort, he would have to put his life into it.
The Spirit Emperor knew that if he lost this time, he might not be able to win next time. On Uncle Zhao Guang's side, there are few people, and he can't beat the regular army of the Spirit Emperor, but because of the small number of people, it is quite neat to run, and the mobility is much stronger than the regular army of the Spirit Emperor. The empire is so big, and Uncle Zhao Guang is a justifiable former prince, if he really wants to play guerrilla warfare with Emperor Ling, he is afraid that he will not be able to suppress it for a few years! Emperor Ling's retreat not only loses face and national prestige, but also loses the opportunity.
But he can't help but leave, stay here, and secretly don't even have any hope of turning the tables.
He secretly carried a little vitality in his hand, ready to slap three times quickly and continuously.
At this moment when the Spirit Emperor knew that he was hopeless and was about to flee in embarrassment, two fireballs rose from somewhere, collided and merged in the sky, and then expanded into a mighty fire dragon, and that dragon-shaped fire light meandered from the northwest.
The pouring rain, at this time, suddenly stopped for some reason, as if the concerto of fate suddenly stopped playing at this moment.
The orange-red light illuminated the heavens and the earth, illuminated the small encirclement in the dark night, illuminated the ugly face of the Spirit Emperor, and illuminated the happy revenge that burned in Han Shuang's eyes.
Everyone, including the Spirit Emperor, suddenly turned their heads and looked at the mighty fire dragon. The Spirit Emperor's face changed slightly, and he recognized that it was in May, when the kid named Yinchen used a very peculiar magic skill when he was performing martial arts.
""Roaring Dragon"?" The Spirit Emperor, who regarded magic as a divine skill, subconsciously said the name, and his originally somewhat sloppy eyes condensed again, and in his dark green pupils, a cold light like a ghost wolf shot out. At that moment, he almost gave up, almost patting Empress Linghua on the leg and ordering her to activate the holy weapon and end this originally glorious hunting trip with an almost unbearable humiliating escape of a samurai. In his heart, the hope that had been turned into ashes was once again ignited as a fierce fire of hope at this moment. The hand under the golden-colored wide sleeves clenched into a fist again, and the originally stiff expression was also soothed.
The fire dragon that was suspected of being roaring of the flame dragon fell from the sky, but it did not really explode into the roar of the flame dragon. The fire dragon mightily bombarded the outside of the encirclement, and the moment it touched the first target, it immediately exploded into a hemispherical blast of flames.
Fire Magic: Burning Hell
The thunderous explosion completely drowned out the screams, screams and howls of the thieves, and all those who were caught up in the undetectable red light of the flames were silent for an instant, as if there was not much air for sound transmission in the expanding flames. The huge fireball swelled along the ground to a diameter of nearly forty meters, and even the Spirit Emperor inside the encirclement felt a life-threatening heat wave. Finally, the fireball exploded with a second sparkling explosion, breaking open and turning into a sea of burning fire.
In the sea of fire, hundreds of charred black bodies struggled twice, completely turning into carbon ash, and the raging flames were like boiling lava, scorching the people on the edge of the sea of fire to the ground.
Han Shuang seemed to turn his face and saw the brothers in the village who were struggling in pain in the flames, and a pair of originally clear eyes almost erupted with angry Cangyan. "Change the formation!, stay away from the sea of fire!" he shouted, his voice so loud that the Spirit Emperor's ears were buzzing, but the Spirit Emperor did not blame him, but enjoyed his miraculous sound very much.
The cottage warriors were far more qualified than the so-called imperial army, and at the moment of the attack on Boaza, they began to flexibly change formations, and in the original large circle of encirclement, hundreds of people were divided into a straight defensive array in the direction where the fire dragon flew from, and the direction was towards the mountain road that the Spirit Emperor walked. It was a military posture formed by the repeated nesting of many Nanamiza military forces, the samurai in the cottage wore chain mail that was strictly forbidden to be privately possessed by the people, held a tower shield that also belonged to the folk prohibition, and held a long-handled war hammer for armor breaking, and put on a powerful military posture to restrain the heavy cavalry, the Spirit Emperor looked at the military situation from a distance, and snorted coldly with disdain and dissatisfaction, he saw that it was only the official of the Southern Empire that was qualified to train, and the royal army that specialized in restraining the heavy cavalry of the Northern Kingdom.
Ordinary mountain gates and the like, if you don't say anything, you can have that kind of military formation diagram, let alone a cultivation method.
The enemy came much earlier than the Spirit Emperor and Han Shuang seemed to expect.
At the moment when the line army was ready, a violent sound of horses' hooves sounded wildly in the dark night. The sound of horses' hooves didn't sound like the sound of a squad of one or two hundred people, but like the sound of thousands of horses, maybe some huge army, not even like the sound of animals like horses running, almost like the bloody drumbeat of some kind of multi-legged prehistoric monster when it ran, and like the sound of hundreds of steel golems charging down. The neat and furious sound of horses' hooves is the most shocking war drum and the loudest military trumpet.
The rain stopped completely. Bright light appeared at the far end of the darkness, and in an instant, two hundred windproof horse lanterns illuminated the slippery road and the steely body on the horse's back. The knights in golden chain mail held heavy swords in both hands, and the blades of the heavy swords reflected the light of the horse lanterns, emitting a terrifying blood-red light in the dark night. The Spirit Emperor looked at this extremely unfamiliar forbidden army with wide eyes, it was the first time he had seen the forbidden army with blood looming on the blade.
Killing intent, in the black air can only fluctuate like a tide, clear and cold. The gang wind was strong enough to blow the black clouds overhead into a wide gap, transmitting the cold starlight of the crape myrtle constellation to the encirclement.
"Enemy attack!" Han Shuang seemed to have only time to roar, and he could only see that the solid defense line of 600 people was directly blasted open by the cavalry of 200 people.
Although cavalry has a natural advantage over infantry, the shields and armor-piercing hammers of heavily armored infantry can reduce this advantage to negligible or even flattened at all. Han Shuang seems to be commanding the heavily armored infantry, can rely on the hook lock on his shoulders, each soldier and the companion next to him are completely locked together, and the entire row is locked as a whole, so as to greatly improve the strength of the military Gangfeng, plus the Gangfeng resonance of the companions who are also locked together in the back six rows, the giant shield in the hands of the soldiers in the first row almost has the defensive power of the city wall, even if it is the cavalry impact of Jianzhou Nuer, it can definitely be blocked, and the enemy's weapons, Gangfeng and war horses can be blocked together.
However, this time, when the moment of the collision between the cavalry and the heavy infantry, not only Han Shuang, but even the Spirit Emperor's face turned pale.
On the arrow of the cavalry was a silver-haired young man riding a red horse. On the hands wrapped in chain mail, two dazzling golden lights in the shape of long swords lit up, and they merged into a shining long sword in the air, and the two-handed heavy sword composed of that light was almost as terrifying as the Sith lightsaber, and with a slight slash, the blade that exuded high temperature broke through the wind blessed by the seven layers of heavy infantry, and split the entire row of heavy shields into two pieces of red-hot and soft scrap iron.
Light Magic: Daybreak Sword.
The moment the terrible blow like a circuit breaker ended, as if it had been rehearsed many times in advance, a real thick sword drilled through the breach of the army's mighty Gangfeng, and with the backing of the triple force of men, horses, and military Gangfeng, it stabbed out the first sword of the collapse of the defensive line.
At that moment, the wind swept and thundered, and the two wind and thunder forces with the same characteristics collided fiercely, bursting out with a piercing scream, and the thick Gangfeng of defense, at the moment when the steel shield was torn apart by the light, there was a weak void with nothing, just at this moment, one after another two-handed heavy sword broke through the weakened Gangfeng, and under the high speed given by the war horse, it stabbed into the body of the infantry who was also wearing chain mail.
The blood light, under the light of the horse lantern, turned into a whole piece of brilliance.
The scream, just at the moment it was made, was drowned in the sound of roaring horses' hooves.
The moment the offensive momentum of the cavalry and the defensive momentum of the infantry collided, both the Spirit Emperor and Han Shuang felt that their hearts had missed a beat. At that moment, the collision of Gangfeng was not like an elephant hitting a rhinoceros, nor was it like a lion hitting a jackal, but like a 10,000-ton aircraft carrier hitting a tank, it was completely irresistible crushing. The cavalry corps of 200 people was like carrying the blessings of tens of thousands or even 100,000 people, showing a terrifying wind that only a super-large army cluster could have, and the strength of the Gangfeng broke through the sky. The long swords they swung did not bring up a splash of blood, but simply a flying human head, a splash of arms, and a wave of broken waists. In the face of such a terrifying legion, the armor-piercing heavy hammer was completely unable to break through the outermost protective wind, and there was no way to land the power gathered on the hammer's head on the heavy armor.
Not only that, the heavy cavalry on horseback has the skill of almost many times faster than the light cavalry of Jianzhou Nu'er, and their movements are very simple, except for horizontal slashing or straight stabbing, but like a blade in a meat grinder, it swept through all the infantry that could be obtained like a whirlwind, smashing them into many disconnected pieces one by one.
This is no longer the cruelty that can be described by flesh and blood.
In 15 seconds, the defense line of six hundred people collapsed directly, and the people who did not die were frightened by the overwhelming military force and turned around and fled, and they had no will to fight, but they could not escape the galloping war horses in any case, and they were cut into two pieces in an instant, and were trampled into mud by hundreds of horses' hooves. Behind the defensive line, there were more than a thousand bandits who had not had time to turn around and change formations.
"Change the formation! Hurry up and change the formation!" Han Shuang shouted anxiously, watching as some of the brothers had obviously turned around, but because they did not have the blessing of the military Gangfeng, they were quickly cut off their heads, chain mail, divine soldiers, Gangfeng, and even the three talents and four elephants that were temporarily assembled, six in eight wilderness, these small military forces were like mantis arms as a car in front of the powerful military force of two hundred people, and they were wiped out by the whole area. Many crossbow bows have already shot arrows, but for the bandits and sealing gates who are seriously lacking in broken arrows, those once powerful quenching arrows are not much more powerful than toothpicks at this time, and many crossbow arrows are even more unable to hit these cavalrymen and are blown aside by the Gangwind.
At the front of the cavalry, the flashing greatsword swept across, fusing shields, bows, chain mail, and any other steel products into a rushing stream of water, igniting the flesh and blood body and clothes together, instantly turning into a semi-arc line of fire, and the cavalry behind him, wielding heavy swords, with a terrifying speed that ordinary people could not see, frantically slashed and slashed everything they could, and a whole team of two hundred people pierced in less than a minute, piercing from outside the two lines of defense, and directly attacked the surrounded Spirit Emperor.
