"Ready to attack" Haglo looked at the city with contempt, his raised arms falling, the sound of heavy horses' hooves rang out, and a platoon of 20,000 ironclad archers lined up in the field in front of Rebogan

The black knight, the black horse, and a black sky overhead, the wind whistled and blew, rolling up the trampled blades of grass on the field, and kept circling to the side, the heavy armor of the black armored archer has been covering the legs of the war horse from the body, although it is not as thick as the heavy cavalry of Ruierdian, there is still a weak Pi Kaicun zài at the joints of the arm, but its visual defense ability is enough to resist the shooting of ordinary bows and arrows

As the siege order was given, the captains of the black-armored archers with feathers on their heads appeared in the front row of their respective queues, and the bows and arrows in their hands were the most powerful large composite war bows, the bowstring of the bison tendon winch and the thicker bison horn bow handle, which showed the terrible lethality of this strengthened weapon,

The 5,000 black-armored archers in the rear team dismounted from their horses, took off their weapons and shields from their horses, and slowly advanced in a formation of about 4,000 people

The Rui Erdian archers at the head of the "preparing" city were also nervous and their faces turned blue, they were all new soldiers, where had they seen such a battle, the hands holding the bows and arrows were a little trembling,

"Shooting"

Seeing the dense cavalry cluster below getting closer and closer, the Ruierdian archers on the city wall released the bowstrings in their hands before they could wait for the order, and a cold light flickered arrows, drawing countless swift white light and shadows in the air to cover the black armored archers, and the crisp impact sound sounded like dense raindrops,

Arrows flew sideways, but few fell in the rain of arrows, and the strong defense of the black-armored archers below made the recruits who had only learned to draw a bow and shoot for 2 months above were dumbfounded.

"Devil, devil" Some of the new recruits of Ruierdian were like magic barriers, constantly pulling their bows and shooting, but each of their arrow clusters was either bounced off the spot, or was blown away by the wind lightly, and the soft novice bow and arrow could not penetrate the armor of the black armor archer at all, but was hit by a large area of arrow clusters reflected from under the city, and the city head mountain was full of wails

"Win and win"

The black-armored archers who were rapidly approaching under the city were like beasts that had smelled blood, and they quickly accelerated towards the not tall city wall of Riborgen, running behind the black-armored archers, dragging more than a dozen huge iron-clad pieces of wood, which were used to deal with wooden gates like Riborgen

"Don't these fools know the defensive power of the black-armored archers, but this kind of arrow cluster can shoot through" The corners of Haigru's mouth pursed disdainfully, although the arrows rained down on the city, but in the eyes of a true marksman, these arrow clusters could be believed to be light, even if they were only 10 years old Kugit children, they were stronger than these cowardly Ryordians

He had already obtained the information that there were only 20,000 Ryordian people stationed in Ribogen, and they were still recruits who had just formed an army, judging from the cowering figure at the head of the city, this situation was undoubtedly extremely accurate, with 20,000 black-armored archers against 20,000 recruits, the result of this battle had already been decided

"Boom"

A bolt of lightning swept through the dark sky, and the muffled thunder roared in the clouds overhead, illuminating the beast-like gaze of Hygru looking at the city, his hand holding the reins was covered with sweat, although it was easy on the surface, in fact, as the advocate and executor of this raid plan, it was also a very risky thing to suppress more than half of the elite black-armored archers in the East Court

This attack on Rebogen is the biggest initiative of the East Court this year, as the battle situation becomes more and more unfavorable, the people of the East Court need a big victory to lift the atmosphere, to let those nested in the fortress, behind the shield Rui Erdian know that the iron hooves of the East Court cavalry are as fierce as ever,

Defeating the weakly defended Rebogan would tear a gap in Ryldian's increasingly constricting defensive line, allowing the hooves of the Eastern Court Warriors to run on the Paraven Plains again

"Order the Blanc squadron to prepare for the battle at the city gate" The Duke of Halle, who was standing at the head of the city, had a blue face, and the faces of several other generals were not good-looking,

"Grand Duke, let's withdraw from the secret passage of the castle," a general Rui Erdian said a little timidly, "Everyone knows the power of these black-armored cavalry, and it is simply impossible to fight against them with 20,000 new troops,

These heavily armored archers are basically immune to the damage of ordinary bows and arrows, and have extremely strong melee and long-range combat capabilities, and only strong fortresses and regular hoplites can fight against them.

Kreburgen is only a recruit training, with thin walls and wooden gates, which can be described as defenseless for the black-armored archers, and the fall here is only a matter of time."

"Withdraw?" Duke Halle's emaciated body turned around, looked at him with cold eyes, and said in a stern tone, "General Burris, as a soldier, don't you think what you just said is shameful?

"Duke Halle, please make it clear, I am not those very bad reputation of the Northern Army, I am the nephew of Lord Berris, the undersecretary of military affairs, I don't need to obey your orders" The general Rui Erdian, who was reprimanded by him, said with a disapproving face, "My task is to supervise the training of the new army, not to fight, in this situation, I have the right to decide whether to go or stay with you, if you order me to be imprisoned, the second elder will not let you go"

"yes? I'd like to give it a try."

Duke Halle's face was full of murderous intent, this inspector sent from the Ministry of Military Affairs, he had long been displeasing to his eyes, he either slept with women or wandered around every day, if it weren't for the face of the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, he would have been kicked back to the Ministry of Military Affairs by this good-for-nothing guy

"Someone," Halle shouted to the guards next to him, "immediately put this guy into the city gate team, tell Sù Blanck, let him stand in the first row, this is the warrior I sent him, I must let him and the Dongting people be the first to see blood"

Several Rui Erdian generals looked at each other, and the guy who shouted that he was the nephew of the deputy minister of military affairs just now let out a terrible wail

"No, don't, the Grand Duke spared me this time" The general Rui Erdian, who was dragged away upside down, struggled with his face, and the voice in his mouth was like a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered, and the siege station loved the first row, and there was basically no chance of survival, most of them were real dead soldiers or prisoners who made mistakes

At this time, everyone remembered that this Duke of Halle was not an ordinary local commander, this was a real warrior, and under his leadership, the southern Suruo region was able to resist the attack of the Roudes for thirty years and was as stable as a rock, and his contribution was the most significant.

This stubborn archduke never gave the Roude people a good face during the contact, which was that the Goude people in the south also admired him, and His Majesty the King handed over the most important military affairs of the three northern counties to him, in addition to compensating for his losses in the south, but also vaguely made him the military governor of the three northern counties.

Such an identity is that the second elder may not dare to provoke, let alone such a guy who doesn't know how many heads he has

"May the glory of knighthood shine upon your poor fellow," the Duke of Halle muttered habitually reverently, and then raised his head and said to the other ugly-looking generals of Ryrdian, "first we need a suitable man, and we need to go to Brendit 30 miles away to ask for help."

The Duke of Halle asked the adjutant Styros to take out a map of the Ribogen region, pointed to one of the points, and said to the other generals, "The 6,000 men of General Macchuka of my subordinates are stationed there, and those are the veterans I brought back from the south, and if they appear behind the Eastern Court cavalry at the right time, our pressure will be reduced a lot."

"Let me go on this matter," said Adjutant Styros, who stood up from the side with a resolute expression, "I have been to Brundit, and the roads are relatively familiar, and General Macchuka knows me, if there is a fast enough horse, it will take about half a day to reach it in 30 miles, and I believe that before dark, General Macuka's reinforcements will arrive."

"Well, it's you," Duke Halle thought for a moment, nodded solemnly, took out a ring from his bosom, and handed it to the young fearless lieutenant to instruct." Remember, no matter what happens on the road, you must not delay on the road, give this ring to Macuka, and tell him the number and disposition of the cavalry of the Eastern Court, so that he can make the most appropriate arrangement, and if there is any misfortune, ask him to bring this ring back and give it to my daughter, I have promised her to attend her wedding, the war is important, I am afraid that I will miss the appointment."

When the adjutant left, Duke Halle spread out the castle structure diagram in front of the generals, and said, "Okay, now we can discuss carefully, how to deal with these Eastern Court cavalry, otherwise, we will really go to see the Grim Reaper, although I am 60 years old, but my wife and sons do not want me to die, I believe you are the same as me",

It was sunny outside the tent, but the fat man was squatting in his cool little tent, marking the cities of great significance on the map with the pen in his hand.

Porta, Tritt, Harrell...... These cities are concentrated in the northwestern and central parts of the Northern County, and some have been labeled as occupied by Vekia, and some have crosses drawn that have not yet been occupied

Because the tent is made of lambskin, which is very well ventilated, the light is very good, and golden spots are cast from above.

This is a mountain road leading to Harirri in the southern part of the northern county, and the scenery along the way is beautiful, with large green forests and rolling green hills forming the main color here.

Put down the place in his hand, the fat man opened the door of the tent, squinted his eyes and looked at the mountains in the distance, the plan to attack the northern county was carried out very smoothly, 1 day ago, the besieged Dvalin Fort chose to surrender without a fight, in the list of personnel, the name of the Marquis of Chubard was not included, which made the fat man a little surprised, this is the murderer who nominally killed the former Khan, and he is the target of the Kujitters, but this cunning guy seems to have run away from the secret passage of the castle the night before surrendering,

This also puts the fat man who has been a little worried at ease, and some secrets are destined to be sealed forever,

The key defensive tactics set up by the people of the three northern counties are very much like the French in those days, hoping to rely on a few strong fortresses to delay the invading enemy, and then wait for reinforcements to arrive, this tactic is very common in this era, which is also the meaning of spending a lot of effort to build a strong castle fortress

When the assault armored group, replaced by 20,000 lightly armed Kugit cavalry, completely ignoring the tactics of Dvalinburg blocking in the middle, cutting on both wings, and advancing all the way, in just 4 days, scattered all over the place, and the 15,000 defenders of Ruierdian, who had no time to react, they were pessimistic to find that they were like a rat covered in a cage, and they were stuck in place and could not move.

In particular, the early fall of Ukhaus in the center of the county has left the defenders of the entire northern county completely leaderless, and only some small cities near the south are still resisting.

This is the fat man's new attempt at cavalry group tactics, if in modern society, this tactic of avoiding the enemy's important defense points, interspersing from weak points, surrounding, cutting, until the tactic of plunging the opponent into a Jedi, has a well-known name "lightning tactics",

Because the strategic significance was not important, the Kugit cavalry in charge of the assault directly bypassed them, and when they found that there was no hope for reinforcements, the Vekia infantry group marched forward, with Porta in the east as the center, and all the nearby fortress defenders chose to surrender.

You know, the Vikia army is famous for being good at siege cities, and the meager strength of these fortresses is not thought to be able to stop the offensive of the Vikia infantry group.

As a result of 4 days, two-thirds of the northern counties easily fell under the control of the Vicchian army, and the door to the three northern counties had been opened in front of the fat man

"Attack, Rebgen"

The second phase of the battle of the three northern counties is being quietly implemented, and Ruibogen, known as the granary of Rierdian, is undoubtedly the next strategic target.

This is an open field, typically easy to attack and difficult to defend, and from the military map of the entire northern part of Raldian, the county of Rebogen, which is located behind the northern county, is a very loose area.

Because of the close proximity to the Paraven Plain, there is even a large blank space on the map of the three northern counties of the basin topography.

This means that the northern part of Ribogen is a plain, while the southern part is very rare and undulating, and occasionally a few small hills have quietly risen, which have also been ignored because they are inconspicuous

This is the flattest area in the north of Ruierdian, and it is also the most fertile area in the north, where the wheat production accounts for almost one-third of the wheat production in the north of Ruierdian, and is known as the granary of Ruierdian.

Because of the abundance of grain and minerals, there has never been a shortage of wars in the reborgen, but in the past, the focus of the battle for rebgen was not in the flat north, but in the south and southwest of the hilly region

In densely populated areas such as Paraven and Emilin, as long as these areas are controlled, the flat Ribogen will fall down like a ripe peach.

At the beginning, the Ruierdian people only insisted on fighting with the Rotu people who controlled the north of the country at that time, and the eyes were on the three northern counties controlled by the Rotu people, and the facts also proved that the Ruierdian people were able to quickly expand into a powerful power in a short period of time, and the role of the three northern counties was crucial.

The northern county with high-quality iron ore allows Ryerdian to equip a large number of knights, and become the only country on the continent that can form a knight order in the true sense, and the rich Ribagan is the largest grain-producing area in the north, and it is the driving force and logistics center for the expansion of the Ryordian people to the north, as for the last county, Emir, was once the most prosperous commercial area in the north,

Before the rise of Vekia's commerce, the commercial center of the north was recognized as Emil County, one of the three northern counties, and in recent years, due to the aggressiveness of Vekia's merchants, this former commercial capital has declined, but its former glory still proves its importance

Each of the three northern counties is the lifeblood of Rui Erdian, and it is also the core area that dominates this northern land, and taking Rui Bogen, which is close to the south, is equivalent to closing the door to the connection between the three northern counties and the hinterland of Rui Erdian, which has long been in the strategic concept, and it is also the ultimate goal of this raid operation.

The 5,000 cavalry brought by Philanton had already marched towards Ribogan, and she was followed by 15,000 regular Vecchian troops, and the commander in charge of this campaign was Salon, known as the one-eyed dragon.

According to the intelligence, Riborgen's defense is not strong, and the local commander-in-chief is a veteran named Duke Halle, who is shrewd and sophisticated, and is an extremely tenacious guy, but unfortunately most of the troops under his command are new recruits, and their combat power is undoubtedly greatly reduced.

If there is no accident, the fat man believes that Isaron's shrewdness and sophistication will definitely make this Grand Duke of Halle choose to give up and hold on without tears, and it is a very stupid act to fight against the Vikian army that is good at siege and the Kugit cavalry who are good at field warfare in the open land of a plain, and Salon's favorite thing to do is to rely on the bullying,

The so-called dignified battle, such a thought is absolutely impossible to appear in the head of this despicable guy who only has one eye left,

"If there's no bad news, don't bother me"

The fat man commanded the guards standing guard at the door, his bubbly eyes were bloodshot, his face was a little pale, in order to coordinate the various attack queues, he had not slept for a day and a night, the situation on the battlefield was ever-changing, and any slight mistake could lead to a delay in the entire strategic advance,

This is undoubtedly even more important in raids where time comes first, and every minute of delay requires hundreds or more of a warrior's lives to be filled.
