2088 The Empire Strikes Back (3)
It was a strategic adventure for Yagrin to lead the cavalry into the northern Hunja-controlled area south of Ryla in an active attack, and for the Silas army, which suffered the main blow, this cavalry was fierce and unstoppable, almost disrupting the entire southern war.
But in the eyes of the experienced Hungarian military minister Bai Dulasu, this is just a strategic chess piece, and the white-headed military minister who has spent most of his life on the battlefield, from the imperial cavalry's abandonment of defense and reversal of counterattack, it can be seen that more is that the empire has invested in the southern battlefield of Rayla The lack of troops, is no longer able to take a hasty counterattack of conventional frontal battles, and only to take this kind of desperate game like a waltz on the tip of a knife before death comes, Bo is that the Hungarian army will temporarily give up the northward advance because of the chaos of the Silas army
"Quite a brilliant approach, the person who made this decision is already a rare talent who has mastered the change that offense is the best defense, but unfortunately, this is only a tactical level after all, this is too underestimating his own Hungarian Prime Minister, does the other party really think that in this way, he can make himself unable to move forward? The power of fireflies, do you also want to pretend to be the light of the bright moon! The army is already insufficient, and now the cavalry is drawn, see how you can stop my northward army!" The corners of the Hungarian military minister's mouth were slightly grinned, and he picked up the golden military order placed on the table with a heavy hand, and looked at the half-kneeling commander in front of him." From now on, you no longer need to care about the reaction of the Silas army, leading the headquarters of 15,000 elites, there is only one task, if that cavalry continues to make trouble on the side of the Silasians, you don't need to pay attention to it, but if this cavalry shows signs of moving northward, immediately at any cost, even if 15,000 people are all dead, you must also block it, the Hungarian army minister Bai Dulasu's voice fell like a knife, and his hand pressed down violently. The golden arrow snapped and threw it in front of the captain, and a resolute momentum came like a mountain, making it difficult to breathe, "Even if you just let go of a cavalryman, I want your head!" "Yes, my subordinates understand!"
Captain Wanfu's face changed, he lowered his head, picked up the golden order with a slight tremor in his hands, and a cold sweat broke out coldly behind his back.
It's been many years since I've seen such an imposing military appearance. Everyone thinks that the military minister is the old man, but they forget that this old man used to be a man-eating tiger, even if he shows his old state, it is also a tiger town in the mountains and forests, as for why the military minister judged that the chaos in the rear of the Silas army was just smoke, and why the other party would eventually choose to go north after going south, this captain did not dare to speculate,
For him. This is an opportunity to take a good look at the other party's condition, although the Silas people are cheating, but they are tens of thousands of people, even if they are slashed by horses. It's not something that can be cut in a few days, you just need to wait and see what happens, even if you can't beat it in a short time. Can't you stop it? The military minister is so strict, isn't he a little too nervous!
The Rayla army stubbornly insisted on holding the fortress of Figey, and the entire battlefield changed dramatically. Bursts of smoke rolled wildly on the ground. The various forces triggered by the hegemony of Central Europe and Barrow are making their own arrangements according to their own wishes and calculations. If there is a person at this moment, he can be in the clouds, and he can take all the Qiē of the land of Central Europe and Pakistan into his eyes. It can be seen that countless armies under various banners are going south and north, attacking and defending, setting off dust and smoke that permeates the earth. The luck of the country, the ambition of the heroes, and the fate of countless living beings are all tied up in this war, just waiting for the final showdown!
When Yagrin led the cavalry into the south of Ryla, Reposti's 60,000 imperial army entered the Figue line at the same time.
In the night, Reposti took a few personal guards, immediately from a high place, looking at the countless campfires scattered in front of the Feige outpost as the center, his heart was complicated, the Feige outpost is now the center of gravity of the Empire and the Rayla army, the terrain of this outpost is not good, even if the city wall is temporarily strengthened, the outer defense line is built, and the Rayla army also dug several trenches overnight, but after all, it is only an outpost, and most of the defensive forces can only be arranged outside, which is completely different from the kind of strong fortress that can accommodate tens of thousands of troops
There are 30,000 Rayla troops, and only 5,000 troops are deployed in the Feiguei outpost, and the other troops are arrayed outside the fortress, probably after receiving an order to defend to the death, these Ryla people's camping style is as strong as a turtle shell, and before the time to start, the enemy can hardly enter, and they can't get out much. In the camp, there are dense arrow towers. In the interval between the camps, there was enough passage for the infantry to counterattack, and the cavalry sentry was also placed in ten miles, even at night, there were also insistence on having a ranger patrol, and the range of control could be twenty miles away, even if the Hun cavalry launched a surprise attack, it also had enough time to react
The Imperial army's defensive line was in the hilly area to the right of the outpost, and in just two days, there was already contact between the scout cavalry and the sentinels released by the Huns to the north. The Huns seem to have an impression of the Imperial cavalry, and when they encounter the Ryla scouts, they chase the radiation, and the Ryla people who kill them flee, and when they encounter the Imperial cavalry, they shrink backwards and retreat to the back of the dock wall that the Hyorans are connected at the foot of the mountain in order to the north, and they don't want to show another one.
These dock forts were originally part of the Ryla border defense line, extremely strong, if you do not carry heavy attack tools, it is difficult to pull out suddenly, originally should be an important line of defense to block the enemy's breakthrough, but now it has become the support of the Hungarian army to the north, with the support of these dock forts, 200,000 Hungarian cavalry can be mobilized without any worries, together with the captured more than 300,000 Rayla slaves, with these dock forts as the backing of the attack line, all the way out, ready to take advantage of the weakness. The momentum of the Hun people is almost at its peak here, and the population and materials that can be collected in the south of Ryla are also gathered.
The cavalry shuttles back and forth, the iron cavalry is strong, showing the fierceness of a fighting nation, the meaning of this fighting nation is not only to be able to fight fiercely, but also because of the harsh living environment, every day is facing a hundred years of oppression than other forces, in the struggle to survive, in the hunting of daily life, for the battlefield, honed a good sense of smell,
Although these Hungarian soldiers and horses are arrogant and fierce, they are not really arrogant to consider themselves invincible, the battle of the front sharp, was beaten by the cavalry of the imperial army, everyone knows that there is a far stronger cavalry than themselves on the opposite side, and repeatedly assault the front elite with inferior forces. Almost the collapse of tens of thousands of people in front of the sharp edge, the fierce to the extreme Hun people are also a little afraid, when the army is about to go north, the generals of the army have also ordered the scouts not to force contact it, the Hun scouts, who have always been accustomed to calling themselves eagles, can only shrink behind the cover line composed of the dock fort at this moment, and watch the other party stop in the distance in the dark, and there is no impatience to fight
This kind of calmness is the most stressful, Reposti sighed inwardly after receiving this report,
The cavalry of the Yagrin is turning the south of Rayla into chaos. If the Hungarian army moves frequently, it can be considered normal, but like in front of him, no matter whether it is moving or still, it is calm enough. This almost shows that the counterattack of the Yagrin cavalry did not shake the heart of the Hungarian army to advance northward, and even the Hungarian army, which calmed down, compared to them who fought desperately on the battlefield. Behind the Hun man's actions, Reposti could almost sniff out that the northward bowstring that the Hun military was gradually pulling apart was about to reach its peak!
"Your Excellency. Lord Boazo, please go to the military council!"
An Imperial guard approached and reported to Reposti, who had a calm look on his face in his eyes. With the bearing of a famous general, he stared coldly at the small dock forts in the darkness of the south. And farther away, the shadows of the swarthy mountains. It was as if every change in this land was under his control. It seems that the victory is already in hand.
"Yes, got it!"
Reposti turned around and nodded, who would have thought that in the hearts of the famous generals of the Empire, in fact, at this moment, they were all depressed and scolding their mothers, relying on the outpost of Feigei to resist the northward advance of the Eastern Army, what kind of strategy is this? No matter how much this military meeting is held, can it still bloom a flower!
Under the hilly slope, there was the neighing sound of war horses, and under the light of the camp fires, I saw a cavalry galloping here, this cavalryman strangled his horse violently in front of Reposti more than ten meters away, and the cavalry above jumped down and came over eagerly, saluted Reposti and took out a letter of order
"Your Excellency, reply from the Ministry of Military Affairs"
"This?" Reposti hurriedly took the order, opened it and glanced at it, and was stunned for a moment, the change in the plan of this battle was really helpless, as a front-line general, he immediately reported the change in the battle to the Imperial Military Affairs Department as soon as possible, but he didn't expect the reply from the Military Affairs Department to be like this
Reposti closed the order with an abnormal face, looked at the dark sky in the distance, and was a little thoughtful, he had a hunch that the Hungarian Eastern Army's large-scale northward march should be in the past few days, even if it was guarded by the Imperial Army, in the face of such a large number of Hungarians, it would be a bitter battle, as for whether or not the order of the Ministry of Military Affairs could be completed, it would really be fate,
In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves came again, and under the scorching firelight, more than a dozen Imperial scout cavalry rushed into the camp, and on the top of these cavalrymen's heads was a fluttering red brocade, which was the mark of the Imperial scouts, and in this night, it reflected a faint light. In the blink of an eye, the scout captain at the front had stopped his horses, and the men and horses were all sweating.
The Scout Captain slammed to the ground. He trotted all the way and said, "My lord, the Huns have begun to assemble, I am afraid that they will march tomorrow morning" "Reposti went south, and it really accelerated the determination of the Huns to go north!"
Reposti was stunned for a moment, then snorted, the hands holding the order book were clenched together, his face was cold and he thought for a while, then turned his head and said to a guard behind him, "Tell the news to the Sù Ryla people, and I won't participate in the meeting." Reposti's face was gloomy, and his figure stood lonely on the top of the hill, coming from the south and blowing the wind on this land for thousands of years, blowing the blood-red cloak behind him, rolling up behind him, 200,000 Eastern troops pressed the border, and hundreds of thousands of slaves, could he really stop it?"Yes!" The guard nodded and left,
After receiving the report of the Imperial Army, the Ryla Army immediately mobilized the whole army, although no one dared to say that the Huns would definitely come, but they all knew that the gathering of the Huns must not be a good thing.
The sky gradually brightened, and the vision was clear. Looking down from the outpost of Figue, the Rayla army was already arrayed behind a makeshift earthen wall. The Ryla border army, which was already full of soldiers and was supported by the Empire, was basically wearing armor, and was looking nervously at the distant horizon at the moment.
I saw the horizon in the distance, surrounded by human heads. Thousands of troops and horses emerged from the morning mist, and the heads were densely packed and counted. Knock, knock, knock!" With the rhythmic sound of neat footsteps, even the ground trembled, and the armor on the Hun people was revealed in the white expanse. The oppressive force of tens of millions of people gathered was the footsteps of the Huns, who numbered 100,000 men, were about to pounce
Soldier Rayla couldn't help but swallow dryly. Will the Huns really come today? Everyone stood on top of the battle position, and the knuckles of their weapons were a little white. The wind whipped up the smoke and dust from the opposite side, hitting the face, but no one had the leisure to wipe it, motionless in their respective positions, occasionally moving, and also nervously taking a deep breath,
Shooter located at the Fegueil outpost. He took out the greased bowstring from the bag, carefully dried the grease and hung it on the bowarm and crossbow arm, and silently adjusted the string force. Without saying a word, everyone tensed up. When all the sight of Qiē also seems clearer and clearer. I heard the sound of the desolate Hungarian horn, and a group of Hungarian cavalry rolled up the sky from the opposite side and drove away. Like a wave of cold light, it gradually closed and opened to both sides. With no end in sight, countless cavalry horses covered the ground ahead. "Oh my God, how many people are there?"
Rayla's soldiers' faces became more and more ugly, and the enemy in the distance seemed to have no end. Everyone couldn't help but lean back slightly, as if they couldn't bear the murderous aura that came to their faces. The soldiers looked at each other in a panicked manner, and the general of the Rayla army, Boazo, and the generals of Rayla, pressed the battlements and tightened their faces as well. Looking at the one in front of him. A murderous aura that had not been seen for a long time overflowed from his emaciated figure. General Rayla behind him was also like him, and today he either blocked the Hun army and let it bleed, or was trampled to death by the Hun army, and the sound of the "woo" horn continued to whine. Stirring up the cold, the sky is full of slaughter,
This time it was a different light cavalry from the front, and after the light cavalry, some cavalry in heavy armor appeared, and the horses were wrapped in felt. With a stiff bow at his waist and a long bayonet in his hand, a torrent of streams poured out. In the end, there are people wearing heavy armor, horses covered with horse armor, armored horses, a large area of cold and glittering, there are thousands. The armored cavalry was surrounded by a tall black flag, which crackled in the wind, and the Hun cavalry lay down layer by layer. Facing the front as coldly as a hungry wolf. This is the Hungarian Eastern Army that has broken through several kingdoms in a row, breaking through the edges, and carrying the smell of killing and blood!" "Military Minister, the 110,000 troops of the former army have arrived at the combat position! Request an attack!" A Hungarian Wanfu reported in a loud voice to Bai Dulasu, the minister of the Hungarian Eastern Army, who was standing in the rear, with a strong battle intent in his tone,
The Hungarian army looked at the front line with slightly narrowed eyes, the 30,000-strong Rayla army was not in his eyes, what he was concerned about was the imperial army on the flank,
From the point of view of defense, although the defense line of the Rayla army is densely packed with arrows and towers, it seems to be stable, but the shortcomings of the rigidity are obvious, it is not easy to break in, but it is not easy to rush out, but he brought 100,000 Rayla slaves this time, even if it is filled, it can fill the Rayla army to death.
However, for the Imperial Army's defensive line, these Rayla slaves are only afraid of little effect, although the position of the Imperial Army's defense is not as strong as the Feigei Outpost, but it is the highest position in the undulating hills, condescending, with the strong long-range of the Falcon Imperial Army. You can advance or retreat, looking down on the overall situation, and you don't know how much better than the Rayla army who are stubbornly defending Feigei, "But as long as you entangle the Rayla people, this Falcon Imperial Army can be slowly gnawed off when the time comes! As for the cavalry you are looking forward to killing back at a critical moment, I'm afraid it will disappoint you!"
Bai Dulasu's hand holding the horsewhip tightened, and the corner of his mouth smiled coldly, this is already the last military force in the south of Rayla that can still block his northward advance, open up here, half of Rayla will fall under the hooves of the Hun Ya, he has spent so much effort to let the Falcon Empire put its forces into the decisive battle field he designed, naturally he can't let it slip away like this, as long as all these imperial troops are annihilated in the southern battlefield, the Falcon Empire will feel the pain,
After all, the death of sixty or seventy thousand elites in hundreds of battles before and after will also be a heavy blow to the Falcon Empire, which has always been invincible, and when the time comes, the two armies of the East and West of Hungary will have a combined combat power of 500,000 and a million slaves, which is enough to encircle the entire Central Europe Barrow as the backing, even if it is a northern hero like the Falcon Empire, in the face of such a situation, you must consider whether you need to continue to fight! As long as the other party's heart is shaken, only if the other party is willing to sit down and negotiate, then the century-old rise of Hungary can be regarded as truly hopeful, and he has already taken ninety-nine steps, how can he turn back at this moment!
"Permission to attack!" said the Hungarian military minister Bai Dulasu, with a stern expression, at this moment, the whole world seemed to be instantly silent (to be continued......
