Early the next morning, Viscount Marco von Gertz came to the Sultan's camp alone, and under the astonished gaze of the Turders, he shot a letter from Princess Eudora into the enemy camp, and then he rode back with great brawn, because the distance between the two sides was not far, the crowd watching the coalition camp gave a warm cheer, and no one in the opposing formation dared to respond, and the low morale can be imagined.

However, there are two treasures of the Turde Empire, that is, the wise and powerful sultan and the pious faith. Believing that they would go to heaven when they die in a righteous holy war, there are seventy-two delicious raisins waiting for them in that cool oasis of stars and moons, so these people are overjoyed to be able to give their lives for the true God. So there's still a long way to go to beat them.

In the Sultan's splendid tent, the daily court meetings were still held as usual, the wise Sultan Suleiman and his ministers were discussing the letter of challenge they had just received, and the guards had summoned all the important officials of the empire. In this letter, Princess Eudora formally challenged the Sultan of Suleiman as the heir to the Whira Empire.

Sultan Suleiman, after listening to his favorite young eunuch read the letter in a sweet voice, did not let out a trace of resentment on his face, and asked the ministers for their opinions in a soft and friendly tone.

Halkan Pasha, as the Grand Vichy, was the first to answer.

"Great Sultan, our army has broken twice in a row, and the enemy's morale is high, so it is not suitable for a decisive battle. But we still have an absolute advantage, as long as we hold out, relying on the magic cannon on the hill, the Western coalition forces will not be able to attack us head-on. And when they run out of supplies, they will retreat without a fight. ”

"My Great Viqi, do you mean that the Sultan who drove the expedition retreated from a weak woman? In the past three hundred years, no one has ever been able to stop the conquest of a Sultan! ”

The wise Sultan uttered these words in a soothing tone. It's just that the guards are different, they only obey the orders of the Sultan, whether it is a slave or a large vizi above 10,000 people, they pounce on Harkan-Pasha without the slightest hesitation.

At this moment, it was the national teacher who stood up, although the evil eye witch king Ozturk and the Grand Vidzi Harkan-Pasha often had different political opinions, but he understood that what they were doing was for the Turde Empire to be able to conquer the world, and before this great goal was successful, Harkan-Pasha could not die.

"Great Sultan, please be merciful, Halkan-Pasha has fought countless battles for the empire, and has worked hard and made great achievements, and today is just a momentary gaffe, and the least to death!"

Hearing what the national teacher said, those ministers of the national teacher and the Great Viqi faction also became emboldened, and they knelt on the ground one after another, asking the Sultan's subordinates to show mercy.

Of course, the great Sultan was as good as he could, and his purpose had been achieved, so he said with a smile.

"That being the case, I am not a cruel faint king, and I have allowed Daviqi to retract what he had just said and make a new plan. ”

When the guards heard this, they left the struggling Daviqi and returned to the big tent door, as if nothing had happened just now.

Halkan-Pasha gently wiped his forehead and prostrate himself at Suleiman the Magnificent's feet.

"Great Sultan, our army has His Majesty's personal conquest, and the protection of the true God, since the automatic army, every battle has been victorious, and the small Western coalition army is just a rabble of 30,000 people, vulnerable in front of Your Majesty's heavenly might. Tomorrow is all it takes

"Well, Da Viqi is right, do other people have any opinions?"

"This is a good strategy to break the enemy, and the ministers fully support it!"

The next morning, in addition to the army guarding the city walls. The 100,000-strong army of Thurd poured out of the nest and lined up on the great plain west of the city of Severus, their army was neat and firm, and the corpses of the defeated generals hanging at the gate of the camp raised the morale of the whole army, and both the Tulde cavalry and the orc slaves all held the belief that they would win, because they did not dare to imagine the consequences of defeat.

Among the 100,000 people, 80,000 are the cavalry of the Turde tribe, and 50,000 are the heavy imperial cavalry with strong combat effectiveness and skilled bow horses, all of them are composed of military feudal nobles, and the knight class of the Western continent is not used. Their equipment was also somewhat different from the heavy cavalry of the West with full plate armor, these elite cavalry wore chain mail, rode Arab horses with strong endurance, and were equipped with a wide range of weapons, they grew up on horseback with bows and arrows, scimitars or spears could be equipped according to personal ability, and the powerful ones could make maces or long sabers, among which the high ones used Uzi steel Damascus knives covered with Muhammad patterns, and the iron was sharpened like clay.

The remaining 30,000 men in the cavalry were light cavalry composed of Turde civilians from all over the Eastern Continent, who were almost unarmoured, and their weapons were only bows and arrows and scimitars, but they were extremely dexterous, whether it was reconnaissance, pursuit, or outflanking. The remaining 20,000 men were infantry composed of the people of the Western Continent who had subdued the Turde Empire, and in addition to the Sultan's own soldiers, who were equipped with magic firearms, most of the engineers and artillery were also composed of these people.

The Turde army was divided into three parts of similar strength, each with magic firefighters and light cavalry arranged on both sides to protect the flanks, and heavy cavalry in the middle ready to attack, this tactic was invincible in the face of orcs and Dongyi cultists.

The left and right wings were led by the Grand Viziharkan-Pasha and the national teacher Uzturk, Suleiman the Magnificent personally commanded the Chinese army, the only difference from the left and right wings was that there were also a thousand Turde Janissaries around the Sultan, they were the elite of the elite, not limited to birth, composed of warriors among the sons of nobles, powerful foreign mercenaries, and strange people and strange things among the alien races who submitted to the empire, all maintenance expenses were paid from the Sultan's private treasury, and no one was allowed to transfer except the Sultan, and their uniforms were composed of red and gold, which was very easy to identify。

In the end, at the repeated requests of the Grand Vizi, the Sultan's artillery did not move, and remained on the hill next to the camp, which could not support the army's attack, but ensured the safety of the camp. Daviqi's reason was to prevent a sneak attack by the coalition forces, but in the eyes of the national division, he was afraid that if the battle failed, he could cover the retreat of the army, but the national division did not express his opinion to the sultan.

In contrast to the Turde army, the Western coalition forces were also correspondingly formed into the left, center, and right flanks.

The six thousand heavy cavalry of the Divine Grace Empire served as the main force on the left flank, and the Tutonian northern cavalry of the New Mark Principality wore well-made mask-style long-tailed helmets, white robes painted with heraldic patterns, and held high the black dragon banner. The Order's Tutonian Southern Cavalry, with their distinctive grid-like protruding beaks, looked terrifying, using the banners of their respective lords and the "Knights of the Dead". The reserve on the left flank consisted of 1,000 men from the Emperor's Guard and the Regent, plus 1,000 men from the three tribes of the Bearpaw Clan. All because of the patriarch Ivan's bravery, he was willing to act with him.

Princess Eudora sat in the middle of the main force of the 5,000 Murasen army, these brave and fearless mountain people have been integrated by General Corvado with the new wing system, each thousand people are a wing, a total of three mixed spears, halberds, swords and shields of the infantry wing and two pure magic guns, the old general borrowed from the ancient imperial legion that has been forgotten for thousands of years - the centurion system, so that this military history of one of the most elite systems to see the light of day. On the other hand, due to the enlightened Queen Lydia, the Kingdom of Muracen also separated the ranks, titles, and military ranks, and after the adoption of the military rank system, the high-ranking ministers and noble-born people could not directly command the army, and the military position could only be obtained by military merit, which ensured that the capable and experienced people had the command of the army. The commander of the wing is called a colonel, and a company of 250 men is under it, and the commander is a captain, all of whom are experienced and experienced in battle. At the same time, this policy stimulates their loyalty and initiative.

Each infantry wing was lined up in a rectangular phalanx as wide as fifty men in front and twenty men in depth, with a distance of one man's width between each soldier. The two magic teams are evenly distributed across the four corners of each rectangular phalanx. Highly trained wings can flexibly change formations depending on the situation. The reserve of the Central Route Army consisted of 8,000 religious volunteers from all over the continent, and although they were numerous, they were of little use in the eyes of General Córdoba, and they were simply lined up in the middle to gain momentum.

On the right flank of the coalition was 5,000 men from the Kingdom of François, led by the Duke de Pompadour, who had won several battles with the Long-eared and was the most admired general of King Feli. About half of the four thousand heavy infantry were Franços, half were mercenaries recruited from all over the Western continent, and a thousand were the royal guards under the command of the Count de Castelmo, all in a neat and tight line-up, exactly as they had been hundreds of years. With this tight formation, the Kingdom of François has defeated countless enemies throughout history. Joining them on the right flank were 4,000 mercenaries from the city-states of Itkanya.

At this point, the two armies spread out in formation at a distance of only one kilometer, waiting for the decisive moment to come. This was the first battle of Severus in history.

"Salian, I'll show you my secret weapon today. Miss Werther came to the Duke of New Mark and whispered to him.

"Oh, that's exciting. "Salian hadn't seen Estfaria take out anything strange, it must have been hidden in her spatial ring.

At this moment, a horse came out of the ranks of the Knights, and it turned out to be Sebastian.

"Salian, we can't afford to lose to those guys on the right. ”

"Of course, I'm absolutely confident of our victory. ”

The commander of the Left Wing Army, Duke Salian von Hohenstelingen, rode on the bloody horse "Doros II" from the middle of the river, flanked by his newly appointed generals Anna and Estfaria, whom he had just learned from the general of Córdoba, who could take charge of the army in his absence. His lieutenant, Miss Chieko Nanjo, was also a rare figure in the style of the Far Eastern Islands—an expensive set of black silk velvet with twenty-four sinew helmets and bronze ghost faces, and in addition to the armor, she wore a well-made, brightly colored array of haori. It looks heroic and unique. Meyer (Aphroa), Teresa, Hilda, and Cezela did not show up, and remained in the camp at the rear.

At this moment, in the forgotten city of Severus, the Emperor of the Whira Empire, Justin XI, was discussing a great battle outside the city with Patriarch Severus, his generals, and the commanders of the Itkanria mercenaries in the crypt of St. Mary's Cathedral.

"Everyone, I want to send troops out of the city to help the coalition army and contain some of the Turds, do you think it is feasible?"

Although he was emperor, Justinian XI's land was now only a city, and even more sadly, even here he was not a dictatorship, and there were too many people who could influence him.

The general said: "Your Majesty, we only have a total of 9,000 people, and we are no longer able to guard such a long city wall, and we can't divide the manpower!"

The Patriarch said: "Those people of the Western Church exclude only 30,000 people, I don't see any, we can only pray for a miracle from the Lord to save us!"

The commander of the fleet from Vilanto had his own opinion: "Your Highness, we should take the opportunity to launch a naval battle and break the blockade of the Turde navy. ”

As the voices of the crowd grew louder and louder, the emperor finally couldn't sit still.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Western coalition is fighting bravely for the city of Severus!
