Chapter 272: Let's Talk
Although he did not have a Travino surname, he knew from Preston's appearance that he had Travino ancestry, and he must have heard of the "annexation of Dan Ruis".
Sure enough, Preston's face nodded with a hint of surprise: "Yes, it is indeed possible for the Elfasils to do that, please forgive me for being rude." If this is the case, I will be willing to serve, and I will use all my connections to inform my colleagues who are still in the orthodox army, abandon their prejudices, and join in the grand event, and restore the orthodoxy of Yarufasir. ”
"Then there is His Excellency Duke Law. After nodding to Preston, Ling Xuan turned his head and smiled at De Cos, everything went well, De Cos touched his beard and showed a fox-like smile......
The streets of Danlu were very quiet, except for the sound of Ling Xuan's broken steps, there were only one or two barking dogs, and the moonlight was softly sprinkled on the bluestone slabs, reflecting a faint light.
"Kingdom orthodoxy really has a big selling point!" Looking at the moon in the sky, Decos suddenly stopped.
Ling Xuan was slightly stunned, tilted his head, and waited for the old fox's next words, De Cos cleared his throat and continued: "The power of bloodline is also very important in the eyes of the people, even Drakop must put on the shell of the prince before he has a chance to be a country thief. ”
"Strategist, what do you mean ......" vaguely grasping the old fox's thoughts, Ling Xuan asked tentatively.
De Cos laughed: "It's a pity that you are too idiot, be smart, marry that Mina or something earlier, become a prince, and then rightfully control the whole of Yarufasir." At that time, you can do whatever you want, and you don't have to worry too much. ”
Ling Xuan smiled, then shook his head: "Let the blood of the Semitic people flow in the blood of the noble Arufasil royal family, just thinking about it will make those nobles crazy." What's more, Ling Xuan was already the kind of person who could only go to hell after death, and there was no need to dirt the royal family, Ling Xuan didn't want to be the second Drakop. ”
"Actually, that Drakop may also have great justice. Caught off guard, Decos came up with this sentence.
Ling Xuan paused for a moment, Decos's words were really hard to disagree with, but ...... Dispelling the doubts in his heart, Ling Xuan took two steps forward, and then turned around: "Strategist, no matter what reason that Drakop has, he is just an enemy to Ling Xuan. His justice will be told to the people after he is victorious, at least Ling Xuan can't hear it. ”
"It's really a sharp insight, I can't imagine that you will also have an enlightened day. De Cos laughed.
"Did Ling Xuan say anything?"
“...... You're not an ordinary idiot......"
"Really?" Ling Xuan scratched his head and looked at De Cos, and then there was a silence, the moonlight shone on De Cos's face, and only then did he clearly see that there were a few more wrinkles on his face, the years of battle were really old!
Touching his face and smiling weirdly, Decos replied, "Yes, but it's just idiotic." Then he dropped a string of laughter, breaking through the quiet night and jumping up to the Nine Heavens, in response to his laughter, Ling Xuan couldn't help but laugh.
The two men put their shoulders on each other and strode out in Konoe's surprised gaze, leaving behind them a shadow stretched by the moonlight......

"Why is there always a deficit in the accounts of the legion?" this is the famous quote of Magura, through the surplus of the northern trade of one million gold coins, the purchase of grain and grass exceeded 900,000, and the enthronement ceremony of Princess Minavia also cost an astonishing amount, by November 17, when everything was ready, the only funds that the corps could use were sixty gold coins, and the next payment was more than sixty thousand.
"However, Danlu's arrangement is really speechless. ”
In order to show the officialness of this enthronement ceremony, Preston spent a lot of energy, and he did not expect that this thin nobleman not only had first-class ability to defend the city, but also had the ability to handle this kind of thing not inferior to Russell.
The main street is lined with freshly painted red lanterns, a symbol of good fortune, and the bluestone slabs on the street are as if they have been completely replaced, glittering in the direct sunlight.
In order to demonstrate the authority of the new regime, a total of 2,400 people, including dragoons, were summoned as the honor guard for the day, and nearly 70,000 gold coins were spent on the purchase of new armor alone.
Others, such as the queen's palace and the decoration of the enthronement hall, were extremely luxurious, so that Ling Xuan had the worry of facing the anger of the people in case of famine!
One thing must be admitted, however, that in the last days of November, the fighting on the whole continent ceased, and almost everyone's eyes were drawn to Tanru, the holy city of Travino, under Preston's deliberate arrangement.
"Fap, who does he think he is! Holding this kind of ceremony, he is just a lowly flash citizen!"
"Preston, a shameless guy, actually followed the untouchables to hang out, which is really a shame for Ling Xuan's nobles. ”
"I can't imagine that the strength of the Wandering Army is so great, so Ling Xuan's position ......"
"If it is really Her Royal Highness the Princess, it is necessary for Ling Xuan to re-understand their own path, and Ling Xuan must walk on the true orthodox path!"
......
All kinds of noise rushed from every corner of the Holy Land to Danlu City, and Ling Xuan's ears were filled with countless curses and flattery.
While some of the people resolutely resisted, the other part began to tilt their movements, and for a month, more than a hundred nobles who expressed their willingness to submit and obey the command of the wandering regiment were in their hands, and in their hands they had thousands of troops.
"What an upstart the Wandering Legion!" was the exclamation of the time, which raised the strength of the army to a frightening number almost overnight, and the surrendered noble army, the volunteers of Travino, and the exiled warriors of El Fasir, together with this team, totaled more than 20,000 men.
Numerically, it was already a force that could compete with the Drakop rebels, but the internal supply of food and grass and the mutual distrust between the various units were nothing more than an expansion of a small but capable wandering regiment into a large and chaotic Yaruffasir Liberation Army.
"It's all a problem, maybe the Wandering Legion will be destroyed because of this. This is Decos's point-to-point opinion, with this trace of helplessness, Ling Xuan stepped into the eighteenth, this day known as the "Danlu Orthodox Enthronement Ceremony" in history......
"Why do you wear such clothes?" said Minavia, tugging at her long skirt that was dragging on the floor, and frowned.
"Is this a dress!" Ling Xuan grabbed his hair, he didn't know what to say for a while, she was dressed in a white Minavia against her fair complexion, bright eyes, and she really looked like a fairy.
But her expression was like that of a barbarian girl dressed in human clothes, and this was the one who was about to become Queen Arufasir......
Faintly, Ling Xuan brought a trace of sympathy for this holy country: "But His Highness is still dressed quite beautifully. ”
"Really?" Minavia's eyes seemed to light up, this guy, no matter how savage he was, couldn't get rid of his woman's nature, and when he heard the praise, he became like this.
In order not to anger this doctor and make the next ceremony a real disaster, Ling Xuan had no choice but to nod.
Minavia looked at Ling Xuan again, and then added, "Where is it beautiful?"
Ling Xuan's mouth opened wide, dumbfounded for a while, at this time, the nearby maids covered their mouths and laughed, and one of them said: "Your Highness, you are just like a goddess today, your whole body is full of holy light, and you are beautiful everywhere." ”
Although it was a flattery, Ling Xuan couldn't express too much dissent, he nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, and when his neck was a little sore, Melchior's voice sounded: "My lord, the ceremony is about to begin, please prepare your lord and His Royal Highness!"
"Got it. After sorting out the yellow military dress with silver trim on his body, Ling Xuan said to Minavia: "Her Royal Highness the Princess......"
Minavia nodded slightly, a faint sadness slipping through her eyes, and her face seemed to be covered with a soft white glow.
At that moment, Ling Xuan couldn't say what he felt in his heart, with a panic that he didn't dare to face it, Ling Xuan turned around and pushed open the door, and the bright autumn sunlight poured in, smearing the entire room with a layer of gold.
Minavia walked out slowly, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance in the air, and Melchior, who was standing outside the door, opened his eyes wide, rolled his throat for a moment, and then fell to his knees, his head bowed, and did not lift it for a long time until Minavia's long skirt slid in front of him.
At this time, it was November 18, 1354 in the royal calendar, and at 8 o'clock in the morning, the "Danlu Orthodox Enthronement Ceremony" began.
The sky above Danru
Celebratory fireworks are in full bloom
O people of the earth
Their voices could be heard from beyond the clouds
Warriors in armor
On this day, like a god......
It was one of many hymns in praise of the celebration, and of course, in contrast to the cursing that came from everywhere, and it was not difficult to understand this, just go to the cells where the infiltrating agents, assassins, and saboteurs were imprisoned.
"That Semitic pariah, who wants to destroy the third nation!"
Ignoring this, the longest list of rewards in history appeared after the High Priestess had recited the prayer and completed the ritual of Princess Minavia becoming Queen Minavia.
"Take advantage of this opportunity to turn a bandar of thieves like the Wandering Corps into a regular army!" was Decos' suggestion.
A total of 1,600 people were given the title of knighthood, including the thieves of the Black Eagle Regiment, the hunters of Travino, the servants of El Fasir, etc., and the blood of the lowly flowed into the upper class of society on this day.
There had never been so many low-ranking people who had become the lowest-level nobles, and before the nobles could wake up from their shock, the next blow was enough to bring them into a state of chaos.
De Cos, the old fox, came up with the idea of redividing the land controlled by Ling Xuan and distributing it to the families of those who had died in previous battles, as well as the families of soldiers who were still in the corps.
And those who surrendered to the nobility were given those lands that were still under the control of the enemy.
"Those are rich, productive lands, and now they have been given to you by the Holy Queen, and it is up to you whether you can get them or not!"
Everyone knows that most of the territories of the northern nobles are barren, and there is no way to compare with the territories of the southern nobles.
This was like throwing a piece of meat at a pack of hungry dogs, and it was also the best strategy to avoid Ling Xuanjun's senseless casualties.
On this day, it was also the time to establish the establishment of the entire New Yaruffasir Liberation Army, which divided the surrendered aristocratic army into two corps, most of the nobles were under the unified control of Preston, and the other part was to divide the private troops in the hands of the nobles, commanded by Melchior, with a total of 8,000 troops in the two parts.
The Spear Regiment headed by Tatum and the First Regiment headed by Magura were selected from the exiled Yarufasil, while the Second Infantry Regiment headed by Falcheni and the Third Infantry Regiment headed by Radius were all composed of Travinos, and the cavalry brigade of Jaschu, the Dragoon Brigade of Mandala, the Bow Regiment of Speed, and the personal regiment of Celavizo, with a total strength of nearly 7,000 troops, were still collectively referred to as the Wandering Corps, the central corps with the core.
The Randinovian Corps, consisting of the Landinovians and Elfasils, commanded by Teyas, was stationed in the north, and this part of the force was about three thousand.
Finally, with the addition of auxiliary troops, the total strength exceeded 20,000, known as the 50,000 army.
"The exiled thieves of the north are clothed in a sacred garment, and those scum who give up the dignity of nobility and turn to the wandering thieves in exchange for fame are even more shameful than the wandering thieves themselves!"
The remnants of the Orthodox Kingdom Army entrenched in France issued such a vicious curse, and after the crushing defeat of Nandanru, the current Orthodox Kingdom Army has less than 10,000 troops, and in terms of numbers, the battle between the two sides is no longer at the same level.
Ignoring the hustle and bustle of the Orthodox Kingdom Army, Ling Xuan was more concerned about the establishment of the new Yalu Fasil troops, after all, most of the troops only had such a formation, and in essence, the combat effectiveness was not enough compared to the scattered warriors of the guerrillas, and many troops could not be called a collection of peasants.
In this way, after the hustle and bustle of the enthronement ceremony, while training the new subordinates, he was planning to move eastward. While waiting, on November 27, news came from the west.
"The defenders of Sylvia are willing to accept the rule of the Holy Queen. ”
This important town of Travino is the only gateway close to Fran, and if you take it without blood, it will be much easier to fight in the next battle.
But the news came too suddenly, and more importantly, the troops stationed in Sylvia were not the improvised private soldiers of the nobility, but the regular troops under unified command, although they numbered only more than 2,000 people, but their combat effectiveness could rival that of Preston's troops.
For the sake of prudence, Ling Xuan convened the first military council after the ceremony.
"I'm afraid it's a trap. Melchior said with a frown.
"Yes, those troops have always been the core of the Orthodox army, otherwise they would not have been placed in a place like Sylvia, and it would be too strange to suddenly say surrender. Tatum touched his smooth chin and continued.
"But if it's true...... Ling Xuan can lose a lot of people!" Magula said.
"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, Ling Xuan has gathered enough troops, rushed over as soon as they puffed up, and if they surrendered, they would receive it, and if they didn't surrender, they would simply destroy it!" Rheditus shouted loudly.
"But now, the formation of the various units is far from complete, and I am afraid that a hasty departure will not be conducive to the battle. Melchior shook his head and replied no.
Listening quietly to the arguments of the generals, Ling Xuan knocked lightly on the table, and his eyes couldn't help but slide to Decos, who was sitting quietly on the side and did not speak, only to see him holding a teacup, leisurely blowing the water vapor on it.
It seems that it is better to make your own plans first, this old fox will not be able to say half a word until the end.
In the original plan, the strategy of Sylvia was not taken into account, and due to the obvious superiority of Ling Xuan's army, it could be besieged first, and then ambush Fran's reinforcements, or make a gesture of strong attack, and then use cavalry to sneak up on Fran's troops.
No matter which one it is, it is mainly to weaken the opponent's main combat power, and the winter battle is not to get the territory of the orthodox army, nor to destroy them, after all, with this buffer, it is still of great use to the weak Ling Xuan.
"Weaken the opponent!" Ling Xuan thought in a low voice as his original plan suddenly crossed his mind: "Ling Xuan is going to personally receive the surrenderers of Sylvia. ”
"Ahhh
"Since the other party only has two thousand people, Ling Xuan is not ready to bring more troops, Magula's First Rank Corps and Cheravizo's personal corps have almost two thousand men, no matter how many there are, it is too much to show Ling Xuan's weak heart. Then Ling Xuan continued to state his intentions.
"My lord, in case it is a trap, Ling Xuan will face an army of 10,000 nobles, and a foot army of only 2,000 people, is it too rare. Melchior said in a deep voice.
"For the sake of prudence, Mandala, Yaxiu!" Ling Xuan shouted the names of the two cavalry commanders, and after receiving the response from the two, Ling Xuan said: "After Ling Xuan's army set off, your troops will give Ling Xuan a circle between Sylvia and Fran, in case there is an enemy, don't attack the opponent's own team, just destroy the supply team inside." ”
"Yes!"
"Su, Tatum, Melchior, Rhettus, next is your troops, slowly follow Ling Xuan, keep a day's distance, and be ready to respond at any time. Once there is a change, Ling Xuan will quickly retreat and join you. In this way, the troops participating in the battle were nearly 10,000, which was similar to the strength of all the noble armies, but Ling Xuan's army far surpassed the other party in terms of morale and combat effectiveness, if the other party wanted to use Sivia as bait, just give them a fatal blow!"
"Yes, my lord!" the officers around them stood up and tapped their chests in a resounding response.
"There's nothing to worry about the cowering Orthodox army, the problem is that the south of Sylvia is the territory of the rebels. Putting down the teacup, De Cos said suddenly.
Ling Xuan shook his head and said, "Now that Drakop's troops are pinned down further south, if those noble troops forget to join him shamelessly, the assistance they can get is very limited, but it is not unreasonable for the military advisor to be worried...... In this way, before the battle, send the scouts to this area, in case there is any change, you can only take your time, anyway, winter is coming, and Ling Xuan's food and grass are still on the way. ”
De Cos nodded and smiled: "That's fine, it's better to have a plan in case than to start in a hurry." ”
"Well, Ling Xuan knows, it's best if the defenders of Sylvia really feel the call of the Holy Queen, in this way, Ling Xuan's future is really a sunny avenue!"
After speaking, Ling Xuan couldn't help laughing, the recent series of battles was really the favor of the heavens, sometimes, Ling Xuan was a little convinced that Ling Xuan was fighting at the request of the heavens, and the next battle should be so smooth sailing!
"Okay, everyone go and prepare, the specific departure time is set for the day after tomorrow, if it goes well, in five days, Ling Xuan will be able to drink in Sylvia. ”
With a burst of hearty laughter, the officers retired one after another, and after a while, Ling Xuan was the only one left in the entire room.
"Threat from the South......" Silently looking at the map spread out on the table, Ling Xuan touched his chin and fell into deep thought: "Probably not, the south of Sylvia, but there are hundreds of miles of barren land, and the rebels can't have the courage to risk their lives so much. What's more, their forces are a bit difficult to deal with the barbarians. ”
Dispelling the shadows in his heart, Ling Xuan paced out of the house, there was not a single cloud in the clear blue sky, the warm sunlight sprinkled on Ling Xuan's face, and a gust of wind rushed towards him, wrapped in the smell of real autumn, the fresh smell of falling leaves.
It's really fast, it's approaching winter again in the blink of an eye, but this winter, if you're not careful, it will really become a disaster for Ling Xuan.
With his hands folded, Ling Xuan closed his eyes: "General Lambis, General Valencil, Lord Char, and everyone, bless Ling Xuan in the heavens!"
Two days later, on November 29, Ling Xuan set out from Danlu with 2,000 soldiers to receive the surrender of the Sylvia defenders......
※※※
December 6, 1354 in the royal calendar
As soon as I stepped into the wax moon, the cold air from the north blew through the Travino grassland, and the originally green earth seemed to turn yellow overnight.
And the moment you walk out of the tent in the early morning, you can see that the earth is covered with a light layer of hoarfrost, and this year's winter is coming earlier than usual.
"It's too bad, if it snows early, then the next battle will be in trouble. Stepping on the thin frost on the ground, Ling Xuan showed a look of embarrassment, the water vapor spit out of his mouth condensed into a white mist in front of him, slowly drifting away, the cold of the weather could be seen with his eyes.
"Fap!" Rubbing his hands, Magura trotted all the way over, his face was red from the cold, and he didn't know when, he put on a deerskin coat over his armor: "What the hell, it's cold, it's cold, it's still a few days away from Sylvia, if you don't hurry up there and live in a warm house, Ling Xuan will be unlucky." ”
In the midst of the words, the officers of the various departments came to the main tent one after another, and on their faces they all wrote the meaning of hurrying away.
"My lord, looking at this, it will still be cold, the brothers don't have much to wear, and if they move forward so slowly, the brothers may not be able to support it. Cheravizo looked worried, many of his subordinates in the pro-corps were his former subordinates, and it was no wonder that he was particularly worried.
"But there is still no news from the scouts in the south...... "The reason why the advance is so slow is because the scouts sent to the south have not had a clear message so far.
The place where he was now was an endless grassland, and he was not afraid of the other party's ambush, but if he went deeper, a small forest would appear, and Ling Xuan didn't want Nandanlu's battle to appear on Ling Xuan.
"Let's follow the original, in another hour, when the sun comes out, Ling Xuan will continue to hurry. With a wave of his hand, Ling Xuan made a decision, and the officer's face could not hide the look of disappointment, and after a long silence, he tapped his chest in response, and at this time, the sound of galloping horses' hooves suddenly broke through the early morning silence.
"Urgent!" Before Ling Xuan could come back to his senses, a fast horse rushed in front of Ling Xuan and rolled down from the horse a person dressed as a scout.
"Is it news from the south?" The first thing that flashed through Ling Xuan's mind was that the news from the south had finally arrived.
The scout raised his head, stunned, and then shook his head: "No, my lord, it's the battle report of Lord Mandala and Lord Yaxiu!"
"What!" Ling Xuan snorted, according to the itinerary, the mandala should indeed be interspersed between Sylvia and Fran, but this battle report also came too quickly: "Read!"
"On the 2nd of December, between Sylvia and Francois, they met the enemy on the third day, and the sneak attack was successful, annihilating the enemy's army of 600 men, and the rest were scattered. The scout shouted, and after a moment of silence, shouts of joy erupted all around.
The speed of the mandala was much faster than Ling Xuan imagined, so fast, it was no wonder that the other party was not in a hurry, but the development of the battle situation was too much like Ling Xuan's deduction, could the enemy's wisdom really only be to send troops from the flange?
In this case, they would not have a chance to pose any threat to Ling Xuan's forces at all, could it be that the aristocratic army had really joined forces with the rebels, and the real ambush force was coming from the south?
"My lord, what else is there to hesitate about, now that the noble army has even been defeated by the troops that may pose a threat, what else do Ling Xuan think!" Cheravizo shouted excitedly.
"Yes, Fap, rush to Sylvia in one go, hurry up, and the day after tomorrow Ling Xuan will be able to lie in a warm house. Magura was also agitated.
The cold wind of the wax moon blew on his face, and there was already a sting pain like a knife, and the sky was a hazy sun, and the pale light could not even tear through the fog of the early morning.
If you advance carefully, I am afraid that before you reach Sylvia, the troops will have unexpected frostbitten people, and after hesitating for a moment, Ling Xuan finally made up his mind: "Inform all the troops, set off in advance, and strive to rush to Sylvia the day after tomorrow." ”
"Yes, sir!"
"Scout, if you work hard again, immediately notify the troops behind you and let them catch up. ”
"Yes!"
The sound of rustling footsteps, accompanied by a clear order, filled the whole camp with an uproar. Standing in front of the big tent, Ling Xuan glanced in the direction of Sylvia and sighed softly: "What an impulsive decision. ”
On that day, it was noon
"My lord, the messenger of Sylvia!" The scout who went forward led back to the horse, compared to the magnificence of the ordinary aristocratic army, the armor of the people who came was simple and practical, which showed the person of the Sylvia guard, after seeing Ling Xuan on horseback, the messenger turned over and dismounted, and knelt on one knee on the ground: "Below is the messenger representing the Sylvia guard, His Excellency Archduke Vendenster de Lyle. ”
"Please get up!" Ling Xuan nodded, and did not dismount, now that the situation of the enemy Ling Xuan is still unclear, there is no need to be too polite.
Beating the dust on his body, the messenger straightened up and stood up, his bright eyes staring directly at Ling Xuan, and there was no cowardice of the surrenderer: "According to the courtesy of your subordinates, your subordinates will come to greet Lord Fapp on behalf of Lord Vendenster, and in Lower Posta de Lyle. ”
"It's hard to work, Lord Vendenster is also anxious in Sylvia, Ling Xuan hasn't arrived for so long. Ling Xuan smiled, just from the envoy's surname, he knew that it was Vandenster's relatives, this was undoubtedly sending hostages to Ling Xuan's army, it seemed that the other party had the intention to surrender.
Posta said: "Where, Lord Vendenster has received the news that your army has defeated the French army, and this time let me convey his congratulations. ”
"Thank you. This Vandenster is very thoughtful, and he can't underestimate it, this thought crossed Ling Xuan's mind: "In this case, in order not to make the Grand Duke of Vandenster wait too long, Ling Xuan should continue to hurry! Posta, get on your horse and go to Ling Xuan's side, on the way Ling Xuan can also listen to the deeds of the Grand Duke of Vandensted, I heard that he started from a white Ding, and it took decades of hard work to reach such a high position, which must be wonderful." ”
Posta looked around with a hint of surprise on his face, and then nodded.
Along the way, he carefully recounted the story of Archduke Vendenster who grew up in a family of ruined nobles, and then relied on his military service to achieve great feats in the battles in the north, so as to ascend to the position of grand duke in one fell swoop.
In his glorious years between the ages of thirty and forty, Aru Fasir's vast number of warlike generals emerged, starting from the wings of the kingdom, to the several archdukes stationed on the border, and even the rebellious Drakop.
"The king of Arubasir is the king who owns the earth. "There used to be such legends, but after the twenty-third of Dekos turned forty, all the aura disappeared from him.
During the ten years of being obsessed with women and lazy government, all government affairs were handed over to Drakop. In the past ten years, the world-famous Grand Duke of Yaruffisir, who died in battle, retreated, and since then, the seeds of rebellion have been planted!
“...... Lord Vendenster did not agree with Drakop's rebellion, but he was also disappointed in the king, and originally did not want to be involved in this civil strife, but since the El-Fasil army moved south, in order to protect the territory, he had to join the Orthodox Kingdom Army. But in order to avoid the senseless casualties of the family, he has been the defender of Sylvia. Posta concluded.
I have to agree with Van Denster's method, for him, protecting his family is the righteousness of everything.
This conversation somewhat changed Ling Xuan's opinion of the aristocracy, at least made Ling Xuan realize that they were not all lying comfortably at the back, waving the banner of righteousness, driving innocent people to fight in front of the garbage, and the glorious blood of the ancestors was still flowing in some people!
"By the way, Posta, are you interested in joining Ling Xuan's command and becoming a commander!" After blinking, Ling Xuan extended his hand to the nobleman for the first time.
Posta looked stunned: "...... This,It's too sudden.,I didn't know much about the adults in the next.,The adults suddenly said that they were going to recruit in the next ......"
"Just one glance at people is enough, not to mention, Ling Xuan doesn't want to drag the Lyle family into the chaos of war. Vandenster Grand Duke Ling Xuan is not moved, but he should be very happy to let the knights of his family show the martial arts of the Lyle family!"
Posta suddenly showed gratitude: "Thank you for raising your lordship, if the Grand Duke allows it, I will be happy to join the banner of my lord and make a meritorious service." ”
"Then it's decided!" patted Posta on the shoulder, Ling Xuan laughed.
"Ping--" A crisp gunshot interrupted Ling Xuan's laughter, and several drops of liquid splashed into Ling Xuan's mouth, and the bitter, fishy smell filled the air.
Posta, who was still smiling, froze his movements, his blue pupils spreading, and blood gushed from his neck, staining his white chin.
"Enemy attack--" The screams pierced the quiet afternoon, and in a daze, several guards pulled off their horses, and soldiers holding shields gathered around Ling Xuan.
In the confusion, Posta, who was still on the horse, shook and fell to the ground crookedly, and in the gap between shaking his thighs, he could still see that his eyes were not closed.
"Ping-pong--" The sound of the musket rang out intensively.
Posta de Lyle, the first young man to be devoted to the ambush at 3 p.m. on December 6.
"Travino Infantry Battle", began......
"Where did the enemy come from?" This question not only appeared in Ling Xuan's heart, but also appeared on the faces of all the soldiers, and at this time Ling Xuan saw clearly that Ling Xuan had entered a small forest, and the black smoke of muskets continued to rise around them, and every sound brought the wails of Ling Xuan's soldiers.
"Don't panic, the enemy is just a musket team! Shield team, immediately set up a shield formation to suppress the enemy's firepower!" Quickly sobering up from the shock, Ling Xuan shouted: "There are still six thousand soldiers behind Ling Xuan, the enemy is not terrible!"
"Yes!" Responding to Ling Xuan's voice in a loud voice, the soldiers around him quickly calmed down, dragging their wounded companions behind the shield array, and at the same time, they lined up and began to suppress the place where the guns were placed, and just when the situation was under control, a loud howl rang out in their ears.
"Kill!" the angry cries of thousands of people only saw countless black shadows jumping out from the depths of the woods, rushing from all directions.
"I'm going to die here......" With a low voice, Ling Xuan drew his scimitar and looked up at the sky, it was dim, there was no light, it was really ironic to die in this kind of weather, and the messenger of hell finally couldn't wait to receive Ling Xuan: "However, Ling Xuan still has very important people to wait, I can't let you take it away." ”
The fighting sounds around him became more intense, and they soon rolled in front of Ling Xuan.
The black battle armor, unadorned to reveal the identity of Sadden El, was the first to rush in front of Ling Xuan after cutting down several Hu Cong.
"Shadow Knight Burrata has come to take your life!" the comer shouted, reported his name, the sword stabbed in front of Ling Xuan like lightning, took a light step, and after avoiding the first stab, he swung his knife and cut off his hand, a stream of blood sprayed on Ling Xuan's armor, and before the man could recover from the pain, the second knife had already slashed into his abdomen.
The attacker let out a muffled grunt, then slipped and fell to the ground, silent.
"Shadow Ride...... Uh--" Stepping over the corpse of the Burata, Ling Xuan didn't let the second enemy who rushed up finish speaking, and the scimitar simply slashed through his neck, ending his life.
The sound of the fight was even more dense, and the other party didn't know what fear was, and waves of black waves rushed up from the depths of the woods.
"Fapu, find a way to escape!" With a body injury, Magula rushed to Ling Xuan's face, no need to say it, Ling Xuan also knew the chaos of the battle situation, the Ling Xuan army that was raided fell into passivity from the beginning, the various troops could not respond, they could only fight on their own, and one by one the bad news crossed the battlefield and rushed into Ling Xuan's ears.
"Captain Yahan is dead!"
"Captain Cross is dead!"
......
The Shadow Knights were initially targeted at the high-ranking officers, and within a quarter of an hour of the battle, more than half of the officers had died, and the troops that had lost their command were soon targeted for slaughter.
There had never been a battle that made Ling Xuan feel so powerless, yellow was like a leaf leaf in the black wave, and after a wave hit, several ships were destroyed.
"Get ready!" Looking at Magula, Ling Xuan suddenly said, "Maybe Ling Xuan's path will end here." ”
Magura wiped the blood stains off her face, stared at Ling Xuan for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Fapu, it's Ling Xuan's road that has come to an end, you have to take Ling Xuan's share and go on well, for the future of Ling Xuan's Semitic clan." ”
Before Ling Xuan could come to his senses, Magura punched Ling Xuan in the abdomen, and then pushed Ling Xuan, who was temporarily weak, to Cheravizo: "Fap's life will be handed over to you." ”
Then he took off his helmet and exposed the black hair peculiar to the Semitic tribe in the air, and right in front of Ling Xuan's eyes, Magula held his scimitar high and disappeared into the shadows, his shout resounded throughout the battlefield: "Fapu is here, who will take Ling Xuan's most valuable head!"
"Ling Xuan, let's go!" Holding Ling Xuan, Cheravizzo did not hesitate at all, and after shouting, he commanded another part of the soldiers to rush in the opposite direction, the chaotic wave dispersed, and in the sound of fighting, stepping on the ground wet with blood, Ling Xuan was carried and knocked into the dark woods......
"Ahh
Gasping for breath, Ling Xuan fell to his knees, and there were only a handful of people left around, and the soldiers of the two regiments disappeared into the grassland of Travino in the blink of an eye.
"You must not die here!" A voice sounded in his heart, Ling Xuan struggled to stand up, Cheravizo's hand held Ling Xuan, and looked back at the thief-turned-officer, Ling Xuan put on an ugly smile: "The sneak attacker was attacked instead, Cheravizo, it really made you see an ugly scene." ”
"My lord, this is just an accident, Ling Xuan still has reinforcements, as long as he grits his teeth again, Ling Xuan will be saved. ”
