Chapter 1565: The King's Death

"Maldini, come in!"

Before Downton's words fell, the mayor, who was proud of the spring breeze, walked into the door like a loyal dog.

"What does Your Highness command?"

Maldini scoffed.

Syllable!

Downton grabbed the inkwell and slammed his hand on the mayor's nose, and his face blossomed, ink and nosebleeds pouring down.

Maldini was blinded, knowing that the horse's ass had been slapped on the horse's leg, but he didn't dare to have a dissatisfied expression at all.

"Give me to do things with my heart, and don't get these small means, and in two days, I won't see the army assembled, and I will hang you and hang you under the street lamp!"

Downton burst into a shout, "Get out!"

The people in the room all retreated in a cold sweat.

In charge of millions of armies, destroying the wealthy, slaughtering the royal family, setting off countless bloody storms, Downton's hands stained with life, has been countless, under this iron and blood tempering, a temperament called tyrant, in rapid cultivation.

Two days later, the Roman legions assembled and marched towards the city of Milan.

"I will take the light cavalry regiment and rush to the front as fast as possible, you don't have to worry. ”

Downton stroked Sissi's hair and whispered comfort.

"I must come back, father, and I will leave it to you. ”

Sissi hugged Downton hard, she also wanted to go, but Rome was originally decided, there must be a big man in charge, otherwise there would be chaos, and it would be all over.

"Well, wait for me to triumph!"

After the hug, Downton rolled over and rode wildly, never looking back.

The Praetorian guards followed.

Sissi clenched her mouth tightly to keep herself from crying, but she was worried that the two closest men in her life had stepped on the battlefield. How can she feel at ease?

On the Corsican plains, the cold wind howls like a wolf.

Downton led 50,000 light horsemen to advance, day and night, but after all, he was a step slower, in Bonia. He encountered the first wave of routs.

"Defeated, the city is broken, Your Majesty is dead!"

The commander of the thousand people who was arrested was completely devastated, and shouted out this sentence that was enough to make Shi Shatter the earth.

"Disturb the morale of the army and hang him!" Downton roared, "the whole army is speeding up!"

"Downton, calm down, take care of the overall situation!"

Homer reminds.

There are more and more routs. Like rabbits being chased by wolves, running desperately on the plains, the spiritual energy of these people has been knocked out, and even if they are collected, they are still a group of waste.

At dusk, Downton received the latest battle report.

The governor of Milan was greedy and was beheaded by Lorraine's Shadow, and the Milan army was broken. Half a million elite were killed and wounded, after which the city of Milan was besieged.

Lorraine's Shadow infuses a large amount of demonic potions into an underground water source. After causing the citizens and soldiers in the city to drink, they were directly demonized, and these monsters who lost their minds began to kill and slaughter other lives.

This is the first time in Lombardy's history. It was a great shame, and Similian II felt that he did not have the face to meet the previous kings, so he broke off and bought time for the remaining people to flee for their lives.

In the end, the second and the city of Milan co-king!

Crunch

Downton smashed the battle report. His face was terribly blue, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.

"Don't be angry, hurry up and think about the follow-up plan is the right way, otherwise Lorraine will call. ”

Homer urges.

"Order, go to Modena, let the Roman legions, assemble on the front line of Montier, Piacenza and Verona, and build a defense!"

Thankfully, Downton had thought about it earlier, so he was able to do it now.

The tide of the war has changed dramatically.

Downton wanted to fly back to Rome to comfort Sissi, but he couldn't, he was now Lombardy's only pillar and hope.

The death of King Similian was the greatest defeat of the Western Turkish camp since the Holy War, and the supreme commander who was killed in battle.

All the major theaters that got the news lost their voices, and they all felt great despair coming.

The fall of Milan also marked the occupation of most of Lombardy's territory by the Evil God Army, you know, this is the logistics and military source base of the Western Turkish camp.

Well, even if all major theaters can be self-sufficient, the loss of the Eastern Theater also means that the southern and northern theaters must adjust the deployment of combat forces, and there will be more and longer fronts that need to be defended.

The Eastern Theater has never fallen, which also makes neighboring countries not build defenses, so if you want to block the advance of the Evil God Army, you can only rely on the lives of soldiers to fill it.

The only reassuring news may be that Downton has arrived, but some people are pessimistic, saying that Lorraine is a copy of the Holy Coffin, but her excellent military talent has been fully demonstrated in the war that broke the city of Milan.

There is also a point of interest, that is, in the battle to annihilate the Milan Legion, Lorraine used the Mechanical Golem Legion, and the effect was extremely good.

Many people have not forgotten that this class concept was first proposed by Downton and shined in the heroic secret realm of Great Britain.

"Defeated by the army conceived by the son-in-law, I don't know if the second is happy or depressed in the end?"

Everyone has different thoughts, but the Eastern Front has suddenly become the most eye-catching battlefield, and any general will take advantage of the big victory to expand the results, so there must be a contest between Downton and the Shadow of the Holy Maiden.

The current military situation is that Downton has the Roman legion, which is the trump card, with a strength of up to 600,000, as well as various miscellaneous cards, plus the integration of the rout, can make up 1.2 million, but these soldiers are arranged on a long defensive line.

The Shadow of Lorraine, known simply as the Commander of Lorraine, commanded the Shadow of the Shadows, and the corps under his command is dominated by the Maki Demons, that is, the Western Turen who believe in the evil gods after being eroded by evil energy.

The characteristics of these people are purple pupils, there are natural evil patterns on their bodies, and their combat effectiveness is much higher than that of ordinary humans, as for the way of fighting, there is not much difference.

Luo Ying has a total of six major corps, a total of three million soldiers, and the miscellaneous cards of auxiliaries and reserves are not counted.

Almost no one is optimistic about Downton, Lombardy is a large plain, otherwise it would not become a grain production area, but at the same time, this terrain is also very suitable for large corps operations, and can perfectly play the advantage of troops.

Standing on the walls of Modena, Downton held a telescope and watched the battle of scouts on the plain, and behind him, was a general.

"The Green Sun Legion is advancing so fast!"

Some generals sighed that this is Luo Ying's vanguard corps, mainly cavalry, as high as 300,000, rushing up, it is like a torrent.

Soon, Shuai Qi appeared in everyone's field of vision.

There was no confrontation and no shouting, and after half an hour, the cavalry began to divide into several waves, bypassing the city of Modena and attacking all around.

"Damn, these guys are so arrogant. ”

The generals were anxious that if the Modena and Roman armies flanked the cavalry, they could crush them, but the current situation was that the enemy wanted to cut off the reinforcements of Modena, and then wait for the arrival of the army to besiege them.

"No way, the advantage of Zhenximo's strength is too great, Your Highness, I suggest that we retreat immediately, with Rome City as the core, build a defensive line, and resist the evil god army. ”

An old and serious general spoke, and many people nodded, they were not afraid of death, but they were staying here, and they would be broken by each one, so it was better to concentrate the limited forces.

"What about the citizens?"

Some soft-hearted generals questioned that at the speed of the Green Sun cavalry, those civilians had only one way to die, and if they were protected, they would be caught up in a struggle, and if they were caught up by the enemy army......

The group returned to the command room worriedly.

"What do you think, can you?"

Downton asked the staff officer to hang up the map, and according to the scout's report, laid out a map of the current location of the large army.

After the initial rustiness, the generals began to express their opinions, and these noble generals who were not cold in their blood originally thought that the country and the people would sacrifice their lives.

Downton was relieved that these nobles had not forgotten their glory.

"Good. ”

Downton applauded, "Next, I will arrange your appointment, General Adrey, you are stationed in Modena, no matter what happens, the city is in the people, the city is dead, without my order, you are not allowed to take a step back, otherwise, I will punish you nine clans!"

"Yes!"

Adley saluted, his expression was tenacious, revealing a strong sense of ambition, this is a depressed middle-aged man, whose ability is beyond doubt.

Through the Eye of Odin and the information that Sissi had, Downton already had a detailed understanding of these generals, otherwise he would not have been able to pick out the right person and entrust him with important tasks.

"Verratti, Paro, Mota, I want you to lead your army out of the city and distribute them in these places, not seeking to destroy the enemy, but to delay as much as possible, harass the enemy, and slow down their pace!"

Every time Downton clicked on the map with his whip, there would be a staff officer marking.

The generals listened attentively, this was the strategy of the first general star in the north, and these young and middle-aged people admired Downton more than those stubborn old men.

"If there's anything you don't understand, ask now!"

Downton's voice was clear.

"Your Highness, I basically understand your tactical thinking, which is to divide and delay the enemy with miscellaneous cards, and then concentrate superior forces to defeat the enemy army individually. ”

"But where is your main force? If you can't defeat the enemy, then this tactic won't work." ”

The other generals also nodded frequently, they knew that the men and horses brought by Downton, a three-thousand-man Dark Ranger cavalry regiment, a hundred-strong goblin regiment and a thousand-strong barbarian regiment, and the rest were ten thousand mechanical golems.

With the deployment just now, Downton had already sent all the troops of Modena out, obviously relying on the Frankfurt army to break the enemy.

Not to mention the combat effectiveness of the Golem, the number of other classes is too small, you must know that the enemies that Downton faces will be at least thirty or forty thousand.

If Downton is with the Immortal Abomination Corps, everyone still has some confidence, after all, it is the most famous army under his command at present.

"Enough. ”

Downton's expression was as cold as 10,000 years of ice, almost freezing everything, "Didn't Luo Ying take out the mechanical golem? I'll let her know who is the ancestor of the mechanized army!" )
