Chapter 484: Meeting on the Mountain
As the leading elite unit of the Imperial Central Army, the Dragonwing Knights are full of attack power if they attack in the plains. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It can be said that there is no legion in the entire Rose Army that can withstand the attack of the Dragonwing Knights head-on, both in terms of equipment and the quality of soldiers.
The two sides are not at the same level at all, but now the leader of the Dragonwing Knights, Doragon, is concerned about the safety of the Imperial Army's food route.
After Adolf was arrested and warned that Ka Miao was ineffective, he could only personally lead his army to hold the choke point of the Imperial Legion to prevent a surprise attack.
Due to the difficult terrain, the soldiers of the Dragonwing Knights were forced to dismount and camp in the mountains, which was not their usual training course.
Letting the cavalry who rode their horses on the plains to the mountains take on the task of guarding them was obviously self-defeating, and their strength was greatly reduced.
In response to the oppression suffered by Doragon himself, the Dragonwing Knights also complained internally, and they were not convinced that Ka Miao was on the throne.
After three days of stationing in Pepper Village, the fearful thing happened, and more than four legions of Rose Army soldiers launched a surprise attack.
Although the Dragonwing Knights occupy a geographical advantage, their preparation is simply insufficient, and they are not good at mountain warfare, and their troops are also at a disadvantage.
This caused them to suffer a heavy blow, and after fighting day and night, they lost more than a third, and the entire army had a tendency to collapse!
"General, we can't hold on anymore, the soldiers of the Rose Army rush up like mad dogs, let's retreat, there is no way to fight this battle!"
"Yes, General, we don't need to wade into this troubled water, let's retreat, don't care about the life or death of that guy Ka Miao. ”
"Report to the general, the back mountain has also been blocked by the people of the Rose Legion, we have no way to retreat, what should we do, are we going to fight to the death?"
Just as the officers of the Dragonwing Knights were admonishing them to retreat, a scout immediately stepped forward to deliver the news, which surprised everyone.
"What? Didn't the general write a letter to that bastard asking for help?
"Ka Miao's mind is now full of how to capture Rose City and prove that he is stronger than General Adolf, who doesn't know this?
"Then what are we going to do, are we just waiting for death?, General, do you have to surrender to the Rose Army?"
When the officers learned that they were completely surrounded, and that reinforcements were far away, they completely exploded, and all eyes were on Doragon.
"What bastard are you talking about? We are the proudest soldiers of the Empire, only those who died on the battlefield and never surrendered!"
Doragon, who had been silent for a long time, scolded sharply, and his right hand pressed on the hilt of his sword, and a deafening sound of slashing and drumming came from the bottom of the mountain.
"That's right, how can we surrender to those thieves, although it's a pity that we don't have war horses, but now it's only like this, fight with them!"
"Let's kill a few more traitors before we die, we are warriors loyal to Your Majesty, and we are never afraid of all kinds of difficulties, everyone let go of it!"
"General, please wait, it seems that someone on the other side has come up the mountain to negotiate, should we stop the attack and let him come up?"
Just when the officers drew their swords and prepared to fight to the death, someone immediately came to report the situation, and their faces looked very surprised.
"What is the best way to negotiate with those thieves? Directly slaughter that person, let's rush over and fight them to the death!" An officer scolded.
His assertion immediately won the response of a large number of officers, who were ready to fight to the death and would never surrender to the enemy.
"No, that man must not be killed, General, you better meet him. The staff officer quickly shook his head, his expression very eager.
"Why can't you kill you? Shouldn't you kid take advantage of the enemy and disturb the morale of the army? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu cut you?"
Doragon's adjutant drew his sword and pointed it at the staff officer, accusing him of fornicating with the enemy, and in this situation he began to speak for the enemy?
"Wait a minute, tell me who that man is, why can't you kill him, and why do I have to see him?"
He heard something strange and decided to listen to it, anyway, it was at this juncture, and he was not in a hurry for a while.
"That person, that person is Lin Ye, the Duke of the Far East, he personally went up the mountain and pointed out that he wanted to see you, the general, where do we dare to touch him. ”
The staff officer shook his head and smiled bitterly, he knew that Lin Ye was not a big person of his level who could deal with it, so he didn't dare to make his own decisions at all, so he came to report.
"What? That guy Lin Ye dared to come here in person? Isn't he looking for death? Quickly arrest him, arrest him and force them to retreat!"
"What stupid words are you talking about? We are an elite imperial army, not barbarians, how can we kill a big man of his status?"
"That's right, this is not our style, even a person of his status dares to go up the mountain in person, how can we attack him?"
The officers looked at each other, and the noise of the arrest of Lin Ye was quickly drowned out, and it was obvious that this choice was absolutely not advisable.
They were an elite army, with a sense of honor and pride, and many were amazed by the audacity of the Duke of the Far East.
"Are you sure it's him? He should be in the Rose City at this time, why did he come here?"
If Ka Miao sent ten legions of troops to besiege them at this time and attack them inside and outside, the army commanded by Lin Ye would definitely be annihilated.
He really wondered whether the duke had come here in person out of recklessness, or was he sure that Ka Miao would never raise troops to save him?
"It's indeed Duke Lin Ye himself, his subordinates have had the privilege of seeing him before, General, what should we do?
The staff officers waited for Doragon's orders, and now they were surrounded and trapped halfway up the mountainside, which could be described as a dead end.
There was really not much room for manoeuvre left for them in this situation, and Doragon had to make a choice in the shortest possible time.
"No need, I'll go and meet him myself, and see what the hell he has in mind, he has the courage to go up the mountain as a nobleman, wouldn't it be too rude if I didn't go myself?"
At his command, a large number of officers followed him to meet with the famous Duke of the Far East.
The next step is to reach a solution that will make both parties happy, or whether to completely collapse and kill you again.
It's all up to the meeting between Lin Ye, Duke of the Far East, and Doragon, the leader of the Dragonwing Knights!
