At dusk and sunset, the flotilla sailing upstream from the inner bay of Bosa entered the outer area of Sarander Kyoto.

The calm surface of the river was divided by the bow of the small light boat, and the current was so soft and bright that it flowed hurriedly towards the front, and at a glance, only the turbulent shore light tips seemed so quiet and beautiful that the soldiers did not speak, but watched quietly, and the regiment had a strict order that no one should talk at will until he reached the resting position

The fleet sailed past the front exit, and a wide three-way opening came into view, thousands of trickling waters, flickering whirlpools, like many chaotic images surging up in a frantic mind, turned into a white scene on the wide river

"Send scouts ashore to ensure the secrecy of the fleet"

Statunko half-crouched, with a cold expression, turned back and shouted to the herald standing behind him, and as the order was given, hundreds of ships in the middle of the flotilla quickly docked,

The baffle was lowered, and a passage about 3 meters wide was set up with the shore, and thousands of black-armored guards cavalry landed on the baffle, and the baffle of the heavy horses' hooves thumped, and the horses who had been suffocated on the ship for several days made a long neighing from time to time.

"The first team goes to the front, and the second team is responsible for the flanks," the scout captain ordered his subordinates, and the horse's hooves flew up a cloud of dust, and the figures of the guards cavalry quickly disappeared into the dark night on both sides

The sky was getting darker, the sun was sinking in the west, and there was not a single figure in the twilight dream, this was a barren tidal flat, except for some scattered village ruins, only the whistling night wind blew, and the hooves of the scout cavalry passed slowly like combs past these scorching ruins,

These are all testimonies to the brutal massacres of the Normans.

The swarthy ruins burned everywhere, whining like a devil crying in the wind, no one dared to pass from here at night, as if it had been forgotten,

The flotilla sailed into the place for the first time, and after the scout cavalry wandered among the ruins for a while, and after confirming that there was no one, the horses' hooves also groaned in the night and continued eastward along the river.

"Keep going" Statunko waved his hand to make the waiting fleet move, the night was like water, the dark river was like a large piece of floating bronze, the white moonlight was like a fluctuating current, and the water in front of him flowed together, the frogs on the shore made a loud short sound, a huge fleet of 1,300 small warships, like a long dragon floating behind, slowly sailed into a wider river, the dense sails almost blocked the drenching waves of the river,

Time passed in a moment, and in order to relieve the tension, Statunko, who was standing on the bow of the ship, spread out the structure of Salander Kyoto from the Sky Temple in his arms on the board of the ship again, and carefully examined it.

This is the first time in the two years since the Southern Army calmed down in such a large-scale battle, there must be no mistakes, for this battle, he has been preparing for a long time, this time the troops participating in the battle accounted for three-quarters of the Southern Army, in addition to the 18,000 main forces that crossed the sea to attack, and also used the two Southern Army flag regiments that His Majesty Falcon had long been deployed in the four counties on the eastern coast,

As soon as the battle of Salander Kyoto starts, the two flag regiments in the four counties in the eastern coastal area will immediately forcibly insert into the flank of Salander's Kyoto army, completely cut off the enemy's main force from Kyoto, and delay time for the southern army to capture Salander Kyoto, and Nilai's northern army will also take advantage of the situation to launch a large-scale counterattack, completely trapping Salander Kyoto in Kulongze in one fell swoop

This is a well-thought-out joint operation, this battle is so important for the southern army that has always been eager for military achievements, the soldiers who have been silent for a long time have already been boiling blood, as a warrior of the Falcon Dynasty, only on the battlefield to fight for their lives, establish immortal merits, worthy of the title of the first strongest soldier on the mainland

If you take Salander Kyoto in one fell swoop, not only can you wash away the slander that the Southern Army is not good at attacking, but also will get more combat missions from the Falcon Majesty, after all, on Salander Island, not only has the Salander Kyoto Army, but also entrenched Normans in the broader southern region, once the war starts, the Southern Army will inevitably be the preferred force for attack...,

Because of the strict order that no ignition was allowed and no loud conversation was forbidden, the huge fleet of boats, which had been towed for several miles, quietly sailed along the river into a bend in front of them. In the middle of the night, the forward scout finally sent a report in code to find the target.

After resting on the spot for half an hour, the 18,000 Southern Army divided into four routes and hid in a dense forest less than 5 miles from Salander's Kyoto.

The moonlight shines through the swaying branches,

The black shadows of the night birds swept swiftly over the branches, and a cooing call flowed through the air, startling the dark still streams around, the horses were grazing with their heads down, and the soldiers were resting on the roots of the trees.

The night breeze was blowing, Statunko stood on a huge cliff outside the woods, his eyes were blazing at the end of the river in the distance, along the moonlit river, a majestic outline of the city loomed in the huge bend a few miles downstream, the solid city wall that stretched for more than ten miles, like a huge arc, almost occupied most of the river, the inner side of the outer ring formed by the city wall was four wide platforms that extended to the castle at the four corners of the city, and a huge tower was erected in the center of the city like a column.

With the knowledge of Statunko as the southern governor of the Falcon Dynasty, this huge city was also shocked, and the rushing river there was like a, flashing with a floating light,

Three long stone bridges span the river in front of the city gate, turning the river into a vertical waterway, and at the right fork of the river is a tall iron water gate, and the lights of the city like stars surround these high platforms.

This is a typical Salander style three-dimensional multi-level defense system, if you want to occupy the city, you must also occupy the huge castle in the four corners, even if you control this qiē in your hands, you still need to constantly send tired soldiers to attack the well-defended central tower, the road to the central tower can be described as dense with arrow towers, it is simply a man-made killing trap, such a tight defensive structure, no wonder it can resist the Normandy offensive several times

"My lord, Captain Fesoland is here."

At the time of the extraordinary meeting, the adjutant whispered in the ear of Statunko,

"Really, so fast."

Statunko's face was a little surprised, he put away the structure map of Salander's Kyoto, which he had studied many times, and whispered to several other generals for a while before turning around and walking towards a young officer standing on his right,

"Fesoland, are you ready?" Statunko asked after looking at him closely

"Yes, my lord, as long as we see the signal, we will release 5 small boats full of explosive bombs from the upstream, go down the river and finally collide with the city barrage water gate" The young officer quickly straightened up and responded with a stern expression, "I believe that even the hardest fine iron will be blown up on the spot, and then our second batch of 50 small boats will enter the city along the inner city river,

Blow up all three castle passages that cross the river, and even if the enemy reacts and wants to immediately reinforce the walls, they will be in chaos because they can't get through."

After being silent for a while, Statunko stretched out his hand and patted the young officer's shoulder vigorously, and said, "Your Guards Squadron is the most elite unit in my Southern Army, so the mission is also the most dangerous, although what you just said is good, but you must remember that war is ever-changing, and any situation can be encountered, a boat full of explosive bombs can blow up the Sarande Kyoto defense system into ruins, and it can also blow you into minced meat, you must be careful."

"Don't worry, my lord, the guys below me are very clever, and they will definitely not make a mistake" The young officer raised his hand and saluted, grinning at the corners of his mouth, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and turned around and disappeared into the night,

Statunko waited until his figure was completely engulfed in darkness before returning to his previous position,

From his position, he could see the whole situation, not only the quiet Salander Kyoto in the distance, but also the 10,000 heavy infantry of the Southern Army who were walking through the forest and approaching the city wall.

In the moonlight, these slowly approaching heavy infantry were like several long black lines, under the cover of the dense forest, reaching 500 meters outside the city wall before stopping, all ready, the air was calm and tense, as if a needle falling on the ground would cause a deafening roar. ...,

"Let's do it"

Statunko took a deep breath and gave the order to attack with a solemn expression,

After a while, five small boats whose draft line was crushed by the heavy hull and almost completely submerged in the water came out of the river not far away, and quickly drifted towards the downstream in the northeast direction.

The northeast wind was blowing more and more fiercely, and the sails of the ship were bulging faster and faster, and they rushed straight down like sharp arrows. The waves cleaved by the bow of the ship like a snow-white melody surging,

The waves even hit the side of the boat, spraying Fesoland all over his body.

Hold Speed

Fei Solang looked at the city water gate that appeared in his field of vision with some anxiety, and a guard next to him cautiously reminded, "Captain, crash into the water gate at such a speed, if we are not careful, we will be crushed......"

"It's not time yet," Fei Solang half-crouched in the bow of the ship, staring at the water gate that fluctuated like light and shadow in the distance, the hull of the ship was violently jolting, as if something was scraping the bottom of the ship, the hull seemed to be about to spread out at any moment, but it still rushed forward like a sharp arrow. It's like a flying bird

Fei Solang said coldly, "Such a rapid river will inevitably form a huge whirlpool at the entrance of the water gate, if we jump off the boat now, the small boat with insufficient speed will inevitably be wrenched into the whirlpool, and the small boat will stay in place and spin at that time."

We only had one chance to blow open the water gate and clear the river, so that the 50 boats upstream could enter the inner city and destroy the enemy's defenses

Otherwise, once the defenders in the city are alarmed to reinforce the city walls, there is no telling how many soldiers' lives will be filled in at that time."

As he spoke, the boat had already crossed the river at a rapid speed, like a swift cluster of huge arrows, and suddenly rushed towards the direction of the water gate, and only a few lonely fires flickered on the tall city wall.

The shadows of the city defenders could be faintly seen walking back and forth, and the sleepy Salander soldiers were unaware of the danger approaching at high speed, until one of the soldiers, who had risen in the middle of the night to relieve himself, undoubtedly glanced at the river below when he passed by the battlement on the water gate

"What's that?"

Because of the lack of sufficient light, the soldier could only see a series of black objects floating rapidly from the river upstream, and when he entered the range of 100 meters, he clearly saw that it was a series of five small boats, which seemed to be filled with heavy cargo, undulating up and down in the rapidly tumbling river, pressing down and turning up like leaves.

Just as the soldier was about to turn his head and shout, he saw a bright light on the boat almost at the same time, and then a red line of fire swimming rapidly, and the eyes of the Salander soldier were instantly widened, because he saw that the five small boats did not get into the river leading to the stone bridge of the city gate, but rushed straight towards the water gate where he was

"Enemy Attack"

At this moment, the Salander soldier only reacted to what was happening, but it was already too late, and a small boat slammed into the huge iron gate of the water gate like a pile hammer, and after the crisp crash, it was the "boom" that shattered the calm of the entire night sky with five huge explosions.

From the place where Statunko stood, you can see five huge balls of light like the sun rising in the night sky, the intense light seems to illuminate the entire vast field, and the whole earth seems to be violently shaking at this moment

The Southern Army, having received the signal, quickly launched a general attack,

The sound of the hooves of the horses coming from the woods outside the city, a distance of hundreds of meters, for the galloping war horses, it was only less than 30 seconds, and the swift cavalry was like a bloodthirsty demon god who emerged in the night, and had rushed into the open city gate like a whirlwind.

"Ah" There was a terrible and terrible scream, a small group of Salander soldiers guarding the city gate were directly rushed by the galloping war horses, turning into a puddle of broken sack-like minced meat, the bright red cloak of the black-armored cavalry fluttered in the wind, and the symbol of the white thorn flower scorched in the light of the fire burning at the water gate of the city gate,

Fierce shouts of killing resounded in the night sky,

Countless black-clad Wecchian heavy infantry rushed out of the woods no more than 400 meters from the city wall,

The crossbowmen who rushed to the front stopped at 100 meters, knelt down on one knee, and quickly poured a rain of arrows on the suspension bridge at the head of the city, and the Salander soldiers who wanted to pull the suspension bridge on the top were in a mess, and fell down in pieces, "popping" The heavy suspension bridge that had been pulled to about 3 meters trembled, and then smashed down from a high place as if it had lost its center of gravity...,

The trombone sound representing the enemy attack was particularly poignant in the bursts of violent explosions, and countless dazzling balls of light flashed inside the city of Salander Kyoto.

The high-altitude passage connecting the tower to the surrounding castle walls collapsed in large numbers in a violent explosion.

These passages that traversed the city, the pillars of the high platform they built on the river, directly became the target of a large number of explosive bombs pouring in from the gap in the water gate, and the huge stones broke and collapsed from the heights, crushing the houses below, and there were people running everywhere, no one knew what was happening, whether it was civilians or soldiers, and now they were all watching in horror as the terrible balls of light exploded in the position of the river, like the end of the world

The fierce explosion woke up the fourth prince of Salander, who was resting in the palace, and the resolute and resourceful prince turned extremely ugly when he heard the explosion like hell rolling thunder.

At the beginning, he had seen the scene of the eldest prince being ambushed by the bursting bombs of the Dyrens family in Cooper Harbor, and the scene of tens of thousands of troops being killed in battle, that kind of tragic scene, still flashed in Fabaylou's mind from time to time

"What's the matter" Fabaylou ran out of the dormitory wearing a single coat, behind him, several Mamunuk's knights followed closely, the whole palace was now in disarray, the maids and attendants were running around like headless flies, shouting that the enemy had entered the city and something like that, and the fires that broke up from time to time in the distance almost lit up half of the sky of Kyoto,

"Come on, immediately send someone to my father's bedroom, don't let people frighten my father" In the face of the chaos, Faurelius still ordered with a calm face,

At this time, Baron Berntick, who was in charge of the city's defense, ran over with an anxious face, knelt down in front of Fabel and said, "Your Highness, something is wrong, the enemy raided Kyoto, first blew up the water gate and then seized the city gate, and now it is pouring into the city in large numbers, please let Your Highness withdraw immediately."

"What's the panic, who is the enemy, how many are there?" asked Faurelius angrily, the light of the fire shining on his face, dark and hideous, he saw that Berntick was wearing only a simple armor, and it seemed that he had just been awakened, and the empty sleeve on the left side was blown up without noticing,

This general Salander, who is known for his bravery, although he does not have the identity of a Mamunuk, but because he is the assistant of the fourth prince Fubailou, and now he is also an important minister in charge of the city affairs of Kyoto, but unfortunately his ability is limited, although he is regarded as a confidant by Fubailou, it is difficult to rise to the top of the line

"I don't know," Baron Berntick shook his head half-kneeling on the ground, his sweat beads on his head, "The road to the north gate has been cut off by the enemy, and the passage of the fort guarding the four garrisons has also collapsed in the explosion, and now the armies can only fight alone,

"No one knows how many people there are on the other side, and I don't even know who they are fighting with, but the other party's offensive is very fierce, and the troops I sent to reinforce the city gate are almost at the touch of a button, and they are definitely the real elite of a hundred battles With less than 10,000 troops in the city now, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist, and I ask Your Highness to withdraw from the city first, and wait for the army to return to help before making plans."

"The army is coming back, a bunch of waste, still thinking about the army's reinforcement, can't you even hear the Wikibians' explosive bombs" The fourth prince Fubaylou raised his head, his eyes were full of depression, and said, "Do you think I still have a chance for the army to come back, I believe that the enemies all over the city are searching for me now, as long as I wait until tomorrow dawn, I can't leave even if I want to"

"Your Highness is saying that it is ...... who led the army to attack this time"

Baron Berntick's face suddenly turned pale, that man's name was taboo in the Salander army, and even the most courageous Mamunuk knights would choose to be silent when their name was mentioned

"Crossing the strait, launching such an elusive thousand-mile attack, could there be anyone else but that terrible guy with a powerful fleet?"

With a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were red and bloodshot, as if he had decided something, he suddenly turned around with a cloudy face, and strode in the direction of the Sultan's bedchamber

"Since you must go, let it be done, or I am afraid that I will have a long night," said Faureaut to Berntick

"Your Highness still has something to deal with, his subordinates are doing it for him, now that the war is urgent, it is better to evacuate immediately" Baron Berntick hurriedly stood up and followed,

Fbaylous ignored him, but hurried through the chaotic corridor in front of him to the Sultan's palace of Borles,...,

A terrible and terrible cry of the old man came from within, followed by a staccato cry, mixed with the terrifying sound of fingers digging through the walls, and a huge iron lock locked the door of the temple

The guards around were expressionless, as if they had become accustomed to it

"Your Majesty is sick again?" Fu Bailou stopped and asked the captain of the guard standing guard with a dull face, the captain on duty nodded with an ugly face, and said, "Your Majesty has always been like this these days, and I finally slept peacefully, and I often woke up in my dreams, and then I cried like this all night, and it will not slow down until dawn."

"Thank you, go down first" Faurelius opened all the guards with a gloomy face, and then used the key in his hand to open the door of the temple that was closed by a huge iron lock,

There is no lamp in the gloomy hall,

Ever since the Sultan of Salander had lost his mind, in order to prevent His Majesty from burning the palace or crashing into any sharp objects, all the things in the hall that could cause injury were emptied

It was almost impossible to see anything but a thick blanket on the floor, and only a shrunken shadow could be seen in the corner of the hall in the dark.

"Father, don't come unharmed" Faurelius squatted down with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and at his feet was an old man curled up on the ground, looking at him with a crazy gaze,

"Rebel, you rebels" The old man's frantic cry seemed to erupt from his throat, he tried to stand up angrily but fell heavily to the ground, his fingers like chicken claws wanted to grasp Forbayron's feet, but they could only stretch halfway, a heavy chain was chained to his wrists and ankles,

Each section is no more than 30 centimeters long, and at the other end of the chain is a black iron ball as big as a watermelon, at least 50 catties away, it is this chain that makes the old man completely unable to stand upright, even if he occasionally straightens up, he will be forced to bend over because of the heaviness

His Majesty, the Sultan who had ruled Salander for 34 years, was only an old man of about sixty years of age, bald and white, of medium stature, and his face was a little swollen and even a little blue from indulgence and excessive drinking.

His scalp was blue, his eyelids were red and swollen, a pair of tiny slitted eyes shone with a bright reddish and crazy color, his clothes were full of stains, there was only one button left in front of him, and the half-hung clothes barely covered his body

"As a Sultan, the Kingdom of Salander will become what it is today, you can't escape the blame."

The corner of Faybayr's mouth sneered, and he took out a short sword with a cold light from his arms, "Although I have the heart to support it, it's a pity that I can't do anything, for the sake of you still have a trace of guilt for my mother after all, it's better to live than to let you live like this, or fall into the hands of the enemy and be humiliated, or let my son and I give you a ride,...... ，
