Chapter 22: The Kingdom Rerises [15/60]
At this time, there were still twenty miles to go from the A Heights of Great Britain. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe 20,000-strong army of the Principality of Tedes has been divided into three groups, and the first to lead is undoubtedly the Third Tydes Legion of the Tydes, the Fisk Infantry Regiment, which is composed of displaced people. But this is only in the name of an empty legion, which is actually an army of vagrant civilians who are not even D-class reserves.
The man at the head of the Fisk infantry regiment was named "Barian Fisk", who came from an ordinary blacksmith family and lived a happy and beautiful life. However, with the advent of turmoil and war, his original peaceful life was destroyed.
In an unexpected war, Barian loses everything he has, including his lover and six-year-old child. All this plunged the twenty-four-year-old Barrian into great grief. He has prayed to God countless times today that he can come out of despair and face life again.
But unfortunately, Barian was not able to do so until he was framed by himself and went to prison and took the opportunity to swallow his property. And being betrayed by his only relative again, Barian was even more physically and mentally exhausted and wanted to die.
And at this time, in order to recruit enough soldiers, the Principality of Tedles went around the country looking for people with war experience to join the army and serve as a commanding class.
Barrian's father was a blacksmith in the army, so he followed his father into battle at the age of six, and at the age of thirteen, he used his sword to block a knight's attack, taking the opportunity to save the life of a Tedes soldier.
Now, the soldier who had been saved by Barian was now a high-ranking nobleman in the Duchy of Tedus. He came from a wealthy family, was hugely influential, and knew that Barian had great dreams and talents. In order to repay the favor of the sword, the nobleman recommended Barian to the king to join the army.
After being recruited into the army, Barian was quickly embraced by the soldiers, who were almost all refugees, but could not stop the enthusiastic worship of Baryan. Barian was a man of integrity, bravery, and justice, and he never disliked the origins of these men, and every time he fought was often a leader in his own actions to inspire the soldiers around him.
Therefore, Barrian's position in the barracks has been promoted very quickly, and in two years, he has jumped from an ordinary captain-level task to the position of a legion commander. Of course, this also has to do with the fact that his legion is only cannon fodder, so that no one wants to compete with him at all. Regardless, Barian managed to take the position of Legion Commander and began to train the soldiers based on his own experience.
Unfortunately, Barrian's training program has not yet had time to begin, and the Duchy of Tedes is like Great Britain declaring war. Overnight, an army of 20,000 men marched southward, and with a large number of men along the way, the Duchy of Tedes marched forward and nearly cut through half of the Kingdom of Great Britain.
While the other generals were celebrating happily, Barian repeatedly warned the nobles of the Duchy of Tedes that although Great Britain seemed to be weak and vulnerable, the Duchy of Tedles itself was also in danger at this time. The 20,000-strong army seems glamorous, but the price is that the domestic economy is in shambles, and a large amount of materials are used to rush into the army and cause civilian hardship.
And Barian himself did not have hope for the supplies that rushed into the army, basically those materials could not be the turn of their poor legions, they were all swallowed by the real five thousand Tedes elite army, and what remained was divided up by the nobles. There was no such thing as their legions of the poor.
But on the contrary, all the hard work was done by the poor army, and every day when I was hungry, I had to go out to fight, and if I was lucky, I could come back alive, and I almost became a starving ghost and went to reincarnation. This makes the people who have always followed the principle of "the big husband should save the suffering." Barrian, whose father's famous words, looked sad in his heart.
..........................................
The expedition was not far from the King of Great Britain, but until now the army of the Duchy of Teddes had encountered no decent resistance. From the point of view of the Tedes nobles, this was indeed something to celebrate, and the stupid and timid Britons had lost the courage to resist their army.
However, it seemed to Barian that he felt that the storm was getting closer. As we got closer to the royal capital of Great Britain, a very ominous premonition was gradually amplifying in my heart. This feeling has appeared several times in the past, and each time it must have symbolized the bloody rain.
But never had this sense of foreboding been so strong - it was as if the heart was about to fly out, and the whole brain was filled with warnings, don't go over...... There will be death, there will be death, there will be death, many people will die. This keeps screaming and shouting to warn himself.
Barian raised his head and looked at the huge dark clouds that had not dispersed in the distance, the scene that covered the sky and stretched for thousands of meters, the fierce lightning and roaring thunder were continuous, it was like a hell of a group of ghosts boiling.
Barian took a deep breath, then shouted to the lieutenant beside him, "Ranko, send scouts to survey the terrain ahead and for enemy tracks." In addition, send someone to inform the rear army that we have encountered some situation here and need to stop advancing. ”
The herald lieutenant, with short brown hair, nodded in response, and then immediately turned around and ordered the few dozen cavalrymen behind him to reconnoitre.
These cavalry were arguably the only cavalry units in the Barrian army, few in number, and without armor, spears, which only served a basic reconnaissance role. But thanks to these horsemen, who brought their own horses, Barrian's army had always been able to function as a basic backup for a regular army.
After sending out the scouts, the army of the Principality of Teddes was stationed less than fifteen miles from the A heights.
..............................
At this time, in a certain wooded area less than seven miles from the Principality of Tedus.
More than twenty heavily armed Pleon cavalrymen were on the lookout, brave and loyal, strong and swift. The Pulun Lieyang Gong on his body, as well as the Fire Phoenix Repeater crossbow carried on his waist, are all first-class high-end weapons in this era. Coupled with the high agility of the horses under their hips, these Pleon cavalry have powerful attack and movement power, as well as the most durable and sustainable combat effectiveness.
However, coming to this forest to hide means that the team has no intention of attacking, on the contrary, in addition to playing an offensive role, they also temporarily have the task of field reconnaissance and mapping on the battlefield. At this time, they were using the D-series weapon "Clairvoyance" of King Pullen to reconnoiter the Tedus army seven hundred meters away.
Clairvoyance, this one is like two iron boxes stuck together, one is a telescope and the other is a peep glass. A Pleon cavalryman with a red fluff on his head was using his clairvoyance to scout the movements of the troops ahead.
And at this time, the scout cavalry sent by Barian was dispatched. But almost at the same time, their movements were immediately captured by clairvoyance, and their armament and combat level were quickly seen.
"Target Thirteen was found, classified as a scout among the light cavalry, armed with a sword and shield. Said the captain of the Pleon cavalry, with a red fluff on his head. "It doesn't look like a regular army, it should be part of the elite of the refugee army that Wang said." And judging by the direction of their march, the target should be to probe the area around Heights A. ”
At this time, a vice-captain with white fluff on his head walked forward, and his expression as a deputy asked with a serious and serious expression: "Captain, what are we going to do?"
The captain of the Pleon cavalry raised his head from the clairvoyant's observation port, and after a moment of thought with a serious face, he said, "According to the first essence of the Scout Manual, when encountering enemy scouts, destroy them at all costs. Vice-captain, you immediately send someone back to inform the king that the enemy has come to the edge of the battlefield, and that he may enter the battlefield in half a day at most. At the same time, the scene is left to you to command, and I personally lead ten cavalry to snipe the enemy's reconnaissance force. ”
Captain Pullen: "Understood, but what if the enemy suddenly appears to reinforce the enemy?"
Captain Pullen smiled and said, "Then it means that we have been exposed, and we don't need to worry about blowing the wind whistle directly." Even the king will understand, after all, our main task is still to annihilate the enemy, and reconnaissance should be handled by some more professional troops. ”
patted his deputy captain on the shoulder and handed over the reconnaissance task at the scene to him.
At the sound of an order, ten Pleon cavalrymen, including the captain, turned on their horses in unison, and at the same time, they had already taken off their dark green forest camouflage cloaks, after all, this thing was a bit heavy and would affect the mobility of the cavalry. In addition, their Pulun cavalry is still a light cavalry type, and pays more attention to speed and agility.
Moreover, it is still more than seven miles away from the enemy's army, and it is in the dense foliage forest, unless the enemy has the same clairvoyant detection weapon as the Pulon King City, there is no need to worry about being discovered.
