Chapter 457: The Battle Situation Is Unfavorable

The news that the lord of the Rose family had ordered a battle soon reached Rose City, and most of the people cheered, they had endured it for too long. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Under the rule of the Rose family, this rich land has endured for hundreds of years and has never been invaded by foreign enemies.

When Raymond seized the world, the first Duke of Rose personally led the army and made great contributions to the establishment of the Lionheart Empire.

But now that Raymond has only been dead for two years, his son has taken the Rose family without his own strength, which has long made the people of Rose unbearable.

At the top of the aristocracy there was a dispute over the question of war or peace, but among the lower classes of the populace there was a striking unity of opinion.

"Let's teach that stinky boy in the royal capital a lesson, do you really think that if you get rid of his brother, he will be the emperor? ”

"That's right, that kind of bastard doesn't want to rule us, we have been guarded by the Rose family for generations, and we only recognize the Rose Banner, not the Golden Lion Banner. ”

"Drive them all back to their hometowns, we never gave in to outsiders hundreds of years ago, even if we fight for our lives, we will protect our homeland!"

The populace was filled with indignation and the atmosphere was high, and the young soldiers were sent out of the city to fight the Imperial army outside the city.

After all, as a powerful family with a long history, the Rose family is not at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, although twenty legions are less than the Empire.

But the Rose family occupies the home advantage, and can recruit another twenty legions at any time, which is a total of forty legions.

It will surpass the strength of the Empire's thirty legions in one fell swoop, and there is reason to believe that once the Rose Family fights seriously, they will definitely be able to have the last laugh.

What is the Imperial Army? Dare to invade the territory of the Rose Family, and they will definitely beat them up!

With such longing and determination, in terms of strength on paper, the Rose family actually has the upper hand in addition to losing the right to control the sea.

However, some visionaries expressed deep concern, although on the surface it appeared that Miss Wendy had made the decision to fight against the Imperial Army, which was rare for her age, but she did not hold control of the Rose family.

The whole family is still controlled by Pompey's uncle and nephew, and the upper echelons of the nobility are still dominated by the lords and factions, which is very unstable.

These people began to worry about the progress of the Rose Army, and the upper echelons could not work together, and it was almost impossible to defeat the Imperial Army in such a situation.

And this fear was soon confirmed, and on the first day of the official confrontation between the Rose Army and the Imperial Army, with the morale of the Rose Army, they not only resisted the charge of the Imperial Army head-on, but even annihilated the strength of one of the Imperial legions, which can be called a great victory.

But this victory did not last long, and within a few days, the Rose Army began to appear incongruous.

Especially in a big battle on the third day, the infantry units suffered heavy losses due to the fact that the cavalry units did not appear at the appointed time.

Not to mention the annihilation of a reorganized legion under the encirclement and suppression of the Imperial Army, and the death and casualty of another legion was more than half, which was a painful defeat!

"Rose, you bastard, what the hell is going on? I didn't agree to appear at a later date and attack the Imperial Legion from the flank, but when the time comes, my men are fighting bloodily, but they have held out until the end, and they have not been able to wait for the cavalry troops, you killed them!"

After nightfall, the infantry commander of the Rose Legion, General Panda, rushed to Rus's tent, grabbed his collar and shouted menacingly.

"General Panda, please calm down, this is the garrison of the cavalry, are you here to cause trouble?"

Rus's lieutenant came over and tried to drag Pandara away, and several soldiers poured in at the door of the tent, all of them were Rus's own soldiers.

After all, although Ross is young and has little qualifications, his status in the army is still the same as that of Panda, and he naturally has a lot of Pompeii's light.

"It's okay, General Panda is a senior, it's just a little misunderstanding, you don't have to be nervous when you step down. Rose smiled and waved.

Although Panda was brave, after all, he was old, and he had not taken Panda in his eyes, and he also knew that Panda was angry.

"Misunderstanding? Do you want me to fill it with the lives of a half-legionnaire? That's three thousand!"

Panda was very angry, if the cavalry appeared in time for the position where it should appear, it would be worth the sacrifice.

When the two armies are fighting, how can it be possible not to die? Since you choose to be a soldier, you must have the consciousness of dying on the battlefield.

But he died on the battlefield with dignity, there was absolutely no complaint, he died to defend his family and country, but because the friendly army deliberately neglected and died in despair after waiting for it, it made the soldier's sacrifice very meaningless, which is also where Panda's anger lies.

"Because there was some emergency in the barracks, I couldn't send troops in time, I'm very sorry for the death of your troops, but they are the most elite warriors of my Rose family, and their death is very honorable, I will apply to Lord Pompeii and treat their families well. ”

Ross looked as usual, and when he spoke of the Rose family, he used a specific reference like "I".

Everyone in the army knew that he had long regarded the position of Duke Rose as a bag, and Pompeii was also trying to match him with Wendy.

"You bastard, now in the field, you guy doesn't want to deal with the enemy well, do you still want to fight for power and profit? You two uncles and nephews are not good things, sooner or later the Rose family will be bad in your hands, it's really hateful, hateful!"

Panda shouted angrily, and there was a posture of waving his fist to beat Rose, and others were afraid that Pompey and Rose's uncle and nephew would be in the ascendancy.

But as a veteran who followed the previous duke, he never had so many taboos.

"General Panda, you need to calm down, now that the enemy is present, if your emotions are not stable enough, you will not be able to lead the army well, if you continue like this, it is not impossible to be sent back to Rose City to recuperate. Rose chuckled.

There was a clear threat in his words, which made Panda stunned.

"What are you talking about? Go back to recuperate? Do you want to deprive me of my military power? I followed the former duke to fight in the north and south, and you were not born when Lao Tzu was fighting, and your uncles and nephews have harmed government affairs, and even the army will not let go?"

Panda was furious and yelled at Rose like an angry bull.

"General Panda, it is a great crime to openly insult the Governor, you better go back to the camp and rest early, I can treat all this today as if it didn't happen. ”

Rose smiled coldly and gave the order to evict the guest, he waved his hand, and his own soldiers began to drive Panda out.

"Damn, you will invite retribution, there will be retribution!"

Panda was driven out of the camp by the soldiers, and with his seniority, how could he have been treated like this?

Just as he was being kicked out, a man in a black robe passed him.

In his astonished gaze, the black-robed man entered Rose's tent, and soon a pair of soldiers came to guard it closely.

I don't know who it is, and what they're plotting.
