2009 The Foundling's Counterattack

Watching the ruts of the brigade disappear in the direction of the dense forest to the northwest, the experienced scout captain frowned slightly, the northwest is almost completely opposite to the direction where the main force of the empire is located, if the Gangfei Northern Legion that withdrew from the fortress goes in the wrong direction, from the time calculation, when it is dawn, it will be found that it is wrong, at least it will deviate from the main force by more than twenty miles,

The judgment of the scout captain is still relatively reliable, the empire started with war, after countless battles of all sizes, the overall quality of the imperial soldiers is significantly higher than the average level of this era, the rise of each empire must be countless star-studded era of great tides, even if it is the scout cavalry under the command of the main army of the empire, it also reflects a relatively high military level

If he knew that His Majesty Falcon had asked Jarglin to go north with tens of thousands of transport horses a month ago in order to be able to retreat in time and completely, then this distance should have been more than thirty miles, not twenty!

I hope it's too late, the scout captain looked in the direction of the dense forest, the mane of the light horse under his crotch fluttered in the wind, the snow was all over the ground, and the main movement of more than 100,000 troops of the coalition army was unknown.

It is already very rare for the Gangfei Northern Army to be able to withdraw, and it is very likely that there will be a pursuit force of the coalition army behind, which is the most headache, and it is easy to crash into the net arranged by the main force of the coalition army in a hasty retreat.

Although there is still a bit of sophistication about the combat power of this newly established legion, after all, they are all in the army, and there is even a central army colleague in the northern legion, and no one wants to see tens of thousands of imperial soldiers, trapped and frozen to death under the pursuit of the main force of the coalition army, thinking of this, the scout captain's face couldn't help but become more and more serious, and ordered, "Immediately follow the car in this direction, and you must find them tonight!"

"Yes" A dozen Imperial scout cavalry accelerated to follow, and the squad turned northwest along the rutted tracks, deep in the dense forest. I found a piece of mud left by people and horses, and scattered debris, but there were no corpses or bloodstains, not even broken weapons,

"Huh" The captain of the Imperial Scout stopped his horse, his face relaxed slightly, he took a deep breath, and said to several subordinates, "Fortunately, except for the rut marks of the brigade, no traces of the allied pursuing troops were found. This proves that the Gangfei Northern Army was still safe when it withdrew last night, as long as the coalition forces did not follow closely in pursuit, it was a field force of tens of thousands of people, and it could easily deal with a small number of enemies, as long as it could delay until the main force of the empire led by His Majesty arrived at the fortress!" "Since the captain said this, then we will naturally do our best, but according to our horsepower, if the other party runs for thirty miles, I am afraid that even if it is found, it will take a long time!" one of the scouts rubbed his frozen hands. He said with an ugly face, "Not to do your best, but to be sure!" The scout captain raised his horsewhip, and his face turned cold. He said solemnly, "The main force of His Majesty's army has already entered, and it should arrive at the front of the fortress tonight, so everyone work harder, no matter what." The main force of the empire counterattacked the fortress, deciding the ownership of the entire northern Gangfei region, and no one knew what kind of bloody battle it would be with the more than 100,000 main forces of the coalition army. As the arranger of the fortress defense, he is most familiar with the internal situation of the fortress, there is a gap in the attack, there is an area that needs to be suppressed, and the Gangfei Northern Legion is undoubtedly the most powerful force"

The sky was getting darker, the wind and snow had stopped, and the snow wind was still rolling vigorously at the head of the fortress

The non-Tallinn general Ambata, who proposed to be alone at the coalition meeting, appeared at the head of the fortress, his emaciated figure was like a benchmark, his eyes were burning like fire, standing at the mouth of the huge fortress battlements and looking at the vast scene of the land at one end of the Ling, which was about to be submerged in darkness, the barren land was covered with winter snow, and it was uninhabited, it was hard to imagine that this was once the most prosperous area of the empire, and now there was only barren grass all over the ground, and the once powerful empire had weakened only a medium-sized kingdom in size, and it was funny to say, just non-people tried their best,

In order to bring the pro-coalition faction to power, he did not hesitate to launch a palace rebellion in the country, which was already unable to withstand the toss, and encouraged hot-blooded young officers to assassinate the old minister Marcos, so as to frame the Falcon Empire, which was regarded as completely helping the coalition find an excuse to start a war with the Empire of Lieyin, and waiting for the victory of the war with joy.

Who knows, the coalition army with 200,000 troops to attack the northern region of Gangfei, but it is a typical anticlimactic, the border battle was first thwarted, and then even the enemy could not be seen, so it was driven all the way into the hinterland of hundreds of miles, in fact, I had already made plans to turn around and flee immediately when the situation was not good, this time the army stormed the Edgar barrier, but it was just to escape a little safer,

As for the Gangfei who was waiting for the main force of the coalition to defeat the Falcon Empire, this time it was completely sold, the coalition held a retreat meeting, and there was no mention of whether to rescue Gangfei, and even the nominal general sent by Gangfei was directly isolated, and the people who died in the country, who would take a look at it, the attitude of the coalition towards Gangfei, just like the attitude of the coalition towards Feslin in the future, will be thrown off immediately after use, there is really no psychological burden, there is no hope for the Ista in the coalition, in the eyes of the coalition army, the role of the Ista people is to serve as cannon fodder, if it is not for the barren and mountainous area of the Physta, except for a group of poor and crazy mountain people, It is estimated that the first thing the coalition forces will divide up is Festa, "General, that Serio is here!" The guard next to him whispered in the native language of the Vislin tribe to remind the pensive Basta, "Lord Ambata, the time is at night, about the defense of the fortress, I still want to talk to the adults in detail!" A middle-aged man in a bright red robe walked away from the other end of the city road under the escort of an arrogant-looking coalition officer, the middle-aged man's face was a little cold, obviously his eyes were full of disdain, but he still had to put on a posture of lowering his body and making friends, how unnatural it was,

The coalition officers who followed the middle-aged man saw the sky with their eyes, and they were still muttering something behind the middle-aged man, and their eyes passed away at a glance on Ambata, as if they didn't see this person, this person's name is Kiruo, a squadron leader in the White Steel Legion of the Kingdom of Rayla, and a well-known star in the army in Rayla's country.

This time, the main force of the coalition army was evacuated in a hurry, and Fit, as an experienced battlefield general, naturally would not be stupid enough to completely lose the rear of the army to the mercenary-born Ista people.

Fett ordered the two men to lead the three thousand Rayla troops, and to guard the fortress with Ambata, nominally to assist in the defense, but in fact everyone could see it. This is not at ease with Ambata, afraid that as soon as the coalition army withdraws, the non-Tallinn people will take the money and do nothing, turn around and lose the fortress, and completely sell the backs of hundreds of thousands of coalition troops to the Falcon Imperial Army,

Selena and Kiro were obviously extremely dissatisfied with the withdrawal of the main force of the coalition forces and the fact that they were left here to assist in the defense.

It is certain that the Falcon Empire army will counterattack in a big way, but it is not known when it will be, and the Frista army is only two thousand people. In addition, the remaining Ruila army adds up to only 5,000, even if it is known as a rare elite in the coalition army, but it can still be more elite than the first-line field groups of the Falcon Empire's main force, Hengshao Gaul and Gangfei's two major empires?

These 3,000 remaining Rayla troops are all from the White Steel Legion of the Fett lineage, under the fortress of Basta, they have fought with the Falcon Empire's Southern Second Army, the battle of Gangfei North has just begun, and it was raided by the Gangfei Northern Army, and these two Falcon Imperial Army, which made the White Steel Army, known as the ace of the Central European Barro Army, jump its front teeth, is just the second line of the Falcon Empire. The Gauls have always been feared by the Central European Baro people as the northern bear, and the expansion of the Central European Baro side to the north several times was contained by the Gallic Empire, which can be seen. In just a few years, what is the level of the first-line army of the empire that swept through northern Gaul in one go,

If the entire White Steel Legion is here, everyone will still have confidence. But this time only 3,000 were left,

Suddenly, from soldiers to officers, they all felt that staying here and waiting for the main force of the Falcon Empire to come to the door was simply looking for death. Staying one more day is more dangerous, isn't the army already gone for a day, how can it be considered safe, it's already staying up until the night, I can't stay, I have to leave immediately, the lives of the Feislin people are not valuable, two thousand people are only the price of 50,000 gold coins, and it is less than twenty gold coins on the head, even if the price of the old mercenary named Ambata is more expensive, it is a hundred gold coins at the top, and the warriors who have been cultivated by the kingdom for many years need to be compared with these mercenaries who are willing to be cheap?

The officers below found Sesaura and Kiro, and the two also discussed, and they definitely couldn't stay any longer, who knows when the main force of the Falcon Imperial Army will arrive? Not to mention, even if the Gangfei Northern Legion that is still fully armed is killed, it can't be stopped with its current strength, this is the Edgar Fortress, when it was built by Gangfei, it was built according to the expansion of the 300,000 army, and 5,000 people were scattered on such a huge defensive surface, it was simply nowhere to defend, of course, the two of them couldn't say that." Lord Sebala, General Kiru!" Ambata turned around, looked at the two of them, and put his hand on his chest and gave a non-Tallinn military salute, "Lord Ambata is too polite, you and I are of the same level, but now you are the head of the defense, we are only assisting in the defense, it should be us who salute you!, how can you let you salute us!" Sebala smiled kindly, said so, but did not mean to return the salute to Ambata at all, but he reluctantly nodded his head, which was considered to be a reply," What was Lord Ambata looking at just now?But then think about it, how did such a great empire become like this!" Se said with a smug feeling as he held the battlements with his hand and his eyes swept over the ground in front of him. In fact, Gangfei people have today's point is completely self-seeking, Gangfei is reckless, always thinks that it is the barrier of Central Europe Barrow, in fact, it is just a light touch to shatter, really to clean up this broken land, or we need to be Rayla, hundreds of years ago, our ancestors once wore armor and guns, repelled the steppe cavalry from the east, if it were not for the Jedi blow of our Rayla people, the current Central European Baro would have been the pasture of the steppe people"

"What our ancestors were able to do hundreds of years ago, now we Rayla people can do the same, you see, the people who are now resisting the invasion of the northern falcons are still us Rayla!But not all the glory can be attributed to us Rayla......" Sebala's voice paused, and looked at Ambata, Ambata was silent, the corners of Sebala's eyes twitched, and he muttered in his heart, the mountain people are the mountain people, do you still expect them to understand the great feelings of the heroes of Rayla, and finally said in a hurry" Lord Ambata, you have also seen that the fortress of Edgar is a barrier for the retreat of the army, and its importance does not need to be said, the counterattack of the Falcon Imperial Army does not know when it will come, rather than dredging here, it is better to make some necessary preparations in case of a sudden situation!" "What does the sudden situation in the mouth of the Sebora man mean?" Ambata's expression was calm, only his gaze fluctuated, like a sharp sword out, and the chill was pressing. Sekora knew Ambata's reputation outside, and had participated in many battles in the sea of corpses and blood, and a row of fine beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead, and his mouth opened, but he didn't dare to continue,

The young officer next to him, Ji Ru, was a little anxious, in front of him, Ambata was just a mercenary leader, Lao Tzu paid for his life, do you still need to take into account the feelings of you mercenaries.

Ji Ruo said with a righteous face, "Actually, it's nothing, the main force of the coalition has retreated for a day, and the contact with the Edgar fortress is almost cut off, which is extremely unfavorable for the front base camp to grasp the overall situation of the battle, I discussed with Lord Seliola, and decided to set up a liaison post every thirty miles from now on, and contact the front command from the fortress, so that as long as there is a situation on the fortress side." The front-line base camp can send reinforcements to rescue as soon as possible!"

"That's a good idea! The fortress can't be defended, and if there are no reinforcements, we can't hold it!" Ambata's calloused hand touched his thin chin and expressed a hint of appreciation. In fact, I have already scolded in my heart, what is a liaison post in thirty miles, these two bastards obviously want to monitor the fortress, and they don't want to die in the fortress. So just watch from the outside, and as long as there is a battle on the side of the fortress, you can immediately turn around and run away. And it is also called the general's newspaper to the base camp of the coalition army!

"So, Mistress Ambata agreed?" said Sebora's face with a look of joy,

"Of course, I have no reason to object!" Ambata said with a somewhat embarrassed face, "I just don't know how to arrange these liaison posts, and now the fortress guards are already insufficient, if we transfer more manpower, I'm afraid that it will ......"

"We are here to mention yƬ, and the manpower is naturally arranged by us, so Lord Ambata doesn't have to worry about it!" Ji Ruo looked indifferent and waved his hand disapprovingly, "This time, I and Lord Sebora are here to inform Your Excellency, as for what Your Excellency thinks, we don't care at all, we are Rela people, we are the descendants of heroes! The guardian of the entire Central European Baro! Not a mercenary! You have no authority to command us! That's it, I'm tired!" As soon as he finished speaking, the young officer Kiru turned around and walked down the city road, completely ignoring Seyola, who was still standing there with an embarrassed face

"Young people nowadays, it's really ......" Sehala looked apologetic, looking a little at a loss

"Young man, it's normal to be a little arrogant!" Ambata looked unimpressed,

"I hope it doesn't upset Your Excellency, I'll take my leave first!" Sebala embarrassedly turned around and walked down the city road, leaving Ambata alone, Ambata watched Sebala's figure disappear with a hint of playful coldness on the corner of his mouth, and then turned around, his eyes continued to stare into the distance, as if waiting for something

"Phew, obviously I'm afraid of death, these Rayla people, what else is there besides self-righteousness!" The non-Tallinn guard next to him couldn't look at it, and spit on the ground with disdain,

In the corridor below the city road, the young officer Ji Ruo, who was still cold just now, did not have the arrogance just now, but looked at the city road with his eyes from time to time, the fire light in the corridor shone on his face, it seemed a little dim, seeing the figure of Se Vela coming down, Ji Ruo hurriedly walked up, and asked uneasily, "How is the situation?"

"Good, better than I expected!"

Sezara took the glove from the adjutant who had been waiting in the corridor for a long time, put it on his hand, and said with a cold gaze. Is the carriage ready, we are going to leave immediately, I have a bad premonition, to be honest, I don't want to stay here for a moment, there is a smell of blood everywhere and the stench of non-Tallinns, who knows how many days they haven't bathed, take our people and leave immediately, while that Ambata has not yet reacted, and let the soldiers pull away the food in the fortress, that is the military material we supervise, and the other party doesn't know, the road is so far, you can't walk back hungry with thousands of people"

"What about the non-Tallinn people?" Kino was stunned for a moment

"There are only 2,000 non-Tallinn people, just leave them a day's food" Sezara smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth, "After a day, how can we be dozens of miles away, the main force of the army is even more distant, what does the life or death of non-Tallinn people have to do with us! Being able to bring back these three thousand elites of the Rayla Kingdom is what Lord Fit cares about the most!"

Darkness fell, I couldn't see clearly, a cold wind blew on the fortress field, Ambata came down from the city wall, and the captain of the fortress guard hurriedly ran to report with an ugly face, "General, the people of Rela have just left the fortress with food and supplies......!

"Yes, I agreed!" To the surprise of the captain of the guard, Ambata nodded

"General, the other party has taken away most of the food and supplies, what should we do now?" The captain of the guard has red eyes, the main force of the coalition has been retreating for a day, our logistics are completely cut off, the road is barren, ice and snow, there is not even a place to hunt, no food, no wood, all of them will freeze to death in three days!" "I can't die! someone will send it!" Ambata pursed his lips disapprovingly, as if he really heard something in his ears, Ambata unexpectedly raised his head to look at the outside of the fortress, and the captain of the fortress guard next to him was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly rushed to the entrance of the city, "Attention, Imperial cavalry! The number cannot be counted!" The urgent sound of the sentry came from the sentry tower, and the earth roared, like an earthquake wave, (to be continued......)
