Chapter 340: Turbulence (4)
After a day and a night of galloping, the cavalry regiment made its way through the relatively peaceful Vandagon realms, a process that would not come as well as the territory of every county as large as the southern districts controlled by the Del family. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the early morning, the cavalry regiment entered the outer area of the royal domain, and the vigorous weeds on the roadside were half waist high, spreading from both sides of the avenue to the middle, and there were some dusty trivial items on the ground, through which it seemed to be possible to see the great exodus of the people months ago, and the once rich royal domain was now only ruined and desolate.
The royal territory under the direct control of the Hawke royal family is not small, and it will take a long time to reach the royal capital, so the cavalry regiment rests again in the deserted village with no people.
However, the environment for this rest was not good, Bai Sensen's bones could not be seen on the village path, some houses were also burned to black, and there was a faint resentment in the air, but the resentment was washed away by the fierce aura of the cavalry and quickly disappeared.
The cavalry found a clearing that had not yet been spread by weeds and vegetation, gathered the nearby unsightly skeletons, threw these into the distance, and in order to ensure that the terrain was spacious, they also pushed down the dilapidated wooden houses around them, and the rear area was ready to house the war horses, so they tied them to the ground with sharpened wooden stakes and lined up in a row of fences.
When all this was done, the cavalry began to divide the work, one went out to hunt prey, and some stayed on the spot to feed the horses.
Charon came alone to the other end of the village, and in front of him was a secluded waterhole the size of a football field, and the silence around him was eerily silent, as if there was only silence left in the world.
Standing for a moment, he silently pulled the gray iron sword out of its scabbard, a little flame emerged from his body, the sword pointed at the surface of the pool, and the fighting qi poured into the sword body condensed into a point at the tip of the sword, the arc light was diffuse, the dim gold slowly became dazzling, and the terrifying edge slowly and firmly extended from the sword.
However, in just a moment, this sharp edge quickly retreated, and the fighting spirit became dim again, and the power also dropped by a few notches.
"Has it failed?" Karon muttered softly, there was no disappointment in his eyes, after all, he was just a rootless Ping, driven by will, although he successfully stimulated the vitality of the fighting spirit, but there was no stable follow-up force.
The sword qi that was about to be released gradually dissipated, and the gray iron sword was put into the sheath by Charon, quietly looking at himself in the pool of water, his bangs were about to cover his eyebrows unconsciously, he stretched out the index finger of his right hand, and the fighting spirit lingered on it.
As the fingers flicked, the tufts of truncated blonde hair fell to the ground, they may be blown away by the wild wind, or they may be swallowed up by the black and red dirt, a very bleak ending, but sometimes they are abandoned to become stronger.
The pool reflected the indifferent eyes, the calm water was rippled by the breeze, and when it calmed down, it was empty, only the blonde hair that fell on the edge of the pool, quietly dotted with the dark ground.....
Helian Line.
As the western front of the war between the royal family of Hawke and the three dukes, it experienced extremely cruel battles in the early stage, and some lands still had dark red colors, which made people feel depressed and dilapidated.
Behind the Helian Line are four cities facing each other, one after another to enter the hinterland of the royal territory, attacking this side is undoubtedly a practice of wasting troops in vain, and the reason why the three major dukes attacked this side with great fanfare at the beginning was only to attract the attention of the Hawke royal family, so as to facilitate the establishment of forbidden spells on the battlefield that had been planned for a long time.
After the goal was achieved, it was natural to collect troops and move the battlefield, so this battlefield was abandoned.
At this time, stationed in the Helian defense line is the Cheetah Cavalry Regiment under the command of the Flying Wing Royal Family, compared to those famous cavalry regiments, this cavalry regiment of more than 5,000 people is not prominent, stationed in this area to prevent the three dukes from raiding, the role of decoration is greater than the substance.
However, the Cheetah cavalry squad patrolling today found an anomaly and chased in one direction after the sentry eagles surveyed the sky back and forth, which meant that the enemy was found, and the leader McCann shouted at twenty-three of his men and rode towards the high slope to the northeast.
The wild horses galloped, and the crushed grass splashed up, falling along with the mud and sand, and was annihilated by the billowing smoke and dust.
Although it was now known that the third duke had just flipped a shot, their Cheetah Cavalry Regiment had not relaxed their vigilance, and as soon as they found traces of cavalry on a large scale, they immediately dispatched to close the distance to observe.
When they came to the high slope, just behind the strange cavalry regiment, with amazing eyesight, McCann saw the other party's banner clearly, and his eyelids couldn't help jumping, as a soldier who had participated in the attack on Thors, how could he not recognize this nightmarish existence, so he took out the equipped communication props, "The seventh team of Cheetahs has found the enemy's traces, the enemy identity is suspected to be Tors's Southern Army, the number is more than two hundred, they are running to the northeast Winter City, we are tracking ....."
After reporting the situation, McCann did not immediately lead people to pursue, but said to all the members with a solemn face: "Maybe some of you already know the origin of the enemy, but here I still have to warn you, don't think that this is an ordinary operation, they are the Southern Army of Thors, the strong enemy that defeated my Flying Wing Army on the frontal battlefield, and it was the defeat with them that led to the outbreak of domestic contradictions at the same time." ”
"Now that the royal family has chosen to cooperate with them, I don't want to comment too much, I just want to tell you that they are the most terrible soldiers I have ever seen, bloodthirsty and belligerent, not afraid of death, and even more cruel to the enemy, even if we just track them, we will be in a dangerous situation, don't take it lightly!"
The unsuspecting cavalry shook their hearts and agreed in unison, and McKenn turned his horse's head and led them to track the high-speed black shadow.
Bowen was naturally aware of the prying eyes behind him, but the head of the family did not order the purge, and he could not make any claims, so he glanced back with disdain, and no longer paid attention to it.
After receiving McCann's situation, the cavalry captain immediately reported to the regimental commander, and the news was passed on to the upper echelons again and again, and finally arrived at the capital of the Flying Wings - Andes City!
In the splendid palace, Gustav stood up from the throne suddenly, his increasingly cloudy eyes showed a sharp essence, this group of people must be the head of the Del family, at this moment he forgot the unhappiness of the past, and his mind quickly thought about how to create a momentum, so that the three dukes felt that the Hawke and Del families stood together, and forced the three dukes to obediently admit and compensate for the war losses.
"Summoning the order, let the city lord of the cold winter prepare well, once the lord of the Del family arrives, open the city gate to greet them on behalf of the royal family, receive them with the best and most valuable things, and everything will be compensated by the royal family afterwards. Activate the teleportation array tomorrow and teleport them to Andes. ”
After the herald had left in a hurry, Gustav paced back and forth, summoning a waiter, "Inform the Prime Minister, General Asilid, and Uncle Byron that they may come and consult with me on important matters." ”
After all this was done, Gustav had a complicated expression, as the head of a country, he was so downcast that he had to rely on the strength of his former enemies to deter his current enemies, but no matter how humiliating he was, the difficulties in front of him had to be overcome.
Although the war brought pain, he also took the opportunity to clean up the cumbersome waste under his command, the number of troops is smaller, but it is more cohesive and combative, and the future is not hopeless, exterminate the three dukes who covet royal power, cut off the noble titles that do not respect the royal order, how can the Flying Wing Kingdom, which centralizes power and does not pull each other's hind legs, unable to defeat the power of a region of Thors!
At this moment, Gustav consciously or unconsciously ignores the fact that there is no peak powerhouse in the flying wings, and does not think about the power of the master of the Del family to raze a city, and only in this way can the encouragement and comfort of the self appear to be powerful, not pale and powerless self-deception.
