2136 The Great Turning Point (5)

The earth is picturesque, a navy blue goshawk spreads its wings in the sky, the huge wings stretched by the wind drag a dazzling arc in the turquoise sky, under the wide wings of the open sky, there are countless huge city house spires towering, it is a vast forest like a flower, it is a huge mountain range that winds towards the east, the winding bend of the great river, the blue waves sparkling in the sun, the green and blue sea cascades around the fleet, the white sails rise like a forest, strong and rich, ruling a qiē, this is the future of the Istanbul Empire,

The crown prince of the empire, the future emperor of Istanbul, from the moment he was born, the content of the education he received, he is the master of the future world, he is the master of this empire, the master of this land, such a beautiful scene and the future, this qiē, just ten days ago, a qiē has been flipped and changed, when he heard that the emperor disappeared on the way home, the crown prince already felt his fate, is like a meteor across the sky, unconsciously deviated from the trajectory that should be, the bright passage of Soladin I, changed the trajectory of the entire empire, but also changed the fate of countless people, the sudden death of an emperor, with him died, There was also that strong era, and the culprit who caused this qiē result was the Falcon Empire, Moses wanted to bow to the Falcon Empire and endure humiliation and live secretly, how could this be possible!

The earth shook violently suddenly, the sound of people coming and going outside, the neighing of war horses came into the ears, and most of the crown prince leaned against the stone wall of the cave, his body trembled slightly, and he woke up in his sleep, blinked, and what came into view was a dark cave, dark and damp, cold and abnormal, a pile of almost extinguished fire,

Moses, a veteran of the empire in heavy armor, walked in with the chill outside, "Your Majesty, the rain has stopped!" The veteran Moses sat down opposite him with a tired face. "The situation is not very good!" said the veteran Moses, "I went to inspect it just now, although the morale is low, but there are still 140,000 people in the whole army, as long as it is properly arranged, it can be supported for a while, but it can't last long, once it falls into a bitter battle, it will be very troublesome"

"What do you mean by trouble?"

The young crown prince struggled to sit up, his body aching, and his hand subconsciously touched his saber. In this cold world, this is his only reliance, as for the veteran Moses, the imperial general who can say such things, his loyalty is worth considering, in this cave, now there are only himself and him,

"To put it bluntly, we're going to collapse the whole army!"

Moses took a deep breath with a pale face, "I have a hunch. The total attack of the Fei Shan army should be in the past two days, and this heavy rain will not stop the Fei Shan people for long, as long as the rain stops. The general attack of the people of Fesan will begin, and this, whether it is Fessan, or us. Instead of wasting limited supplies in vain in the chaos, it is better to concentrate in an elite team, and I will gather all the skilled archers in each army. The main target is these Fishan light cavalry who are always looking for opportunities,

"In order to block the cavalry from the flank of the Seventh Army of Faisan, we have filled in all the remaining 5,000 cavalry in the Aristi River, although we finally got rid of the Fesan army temporarily in the river, but the cavalry in charge of the broken was strangled by the Fesan soldiers"

Moses' ugly voice paused, "The loss of the last mobile force of our army has made it difficult for the remaining more than 100,000 people to move forward, and it is impossible to get rid of Feishan's army, and there is only one battle left, the only fortunate thing is that the incoming enemy is blocked by the terrain, and the two sides are full of knife-like steep mountains, and it is difficult to set up a posture of thousands of troops and horses, otherwise just such desperate pressure is enough to lead our army to collapse."

"General Moses, you collapse on the left and collapse on the right, are you threatening Your Majesty?" A guard officer walked in with a dissatisfied expression, flaxen hair, a high forehead, and a pair of slender eyes with a sharpness, or rather coldness more appropriately, behind him, seven or eight more guards sergeants came in one after another, invisibly arranged around

"What do you mean, Ula flax?"

Moses, who felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, unfastened his helmet casually, put it on the fairly dry ground, his eyes swept around, frowning slightly, he remembered that when he left, there should be more than a dozen seriously injured soldiers in the cave, although the cave is small, but for most of the injured soldiers of Istanbul who have no place to shelter from the rain at present, and can only roll in the mud, this is heaven!

"What about the wounded soldiers?" Moses asked in a deep voice

"I want to be quiet alone, their smell is too strong, I let them all out!" the crown prince looked embarrassed, took the towel from one of the chamberlains who came in, wiped his face, and said disapprehantly, "You know, the smell of blood mixed with the smell of earth is disgusting! How can I fall asleep in that environment!"

"Disgusting, they're fighting to the death for your majesty!"

Moses's veteran Moses's face changed, his hands trembled slightly, it was raining heavily, there was no place to hide, so did the wounded soldiers soak in the rain like this? This young highness is also too willful, and now the morale of the army is low, in full view of everyone, the young highness drove the seriously wounded out to get drenched in the rain in order to rest for himself, how can this make the soldiers below die!

"General Moses, please pay attention to your words and deeds, you are speaking to His Majesty, the Supreme Emperor of the Istanbul Empire!"

The guards officers said loudly, their hands on the hilt of their swords, the crown prince ascended the throne, they are all meritorious ministers, and now all the guards officers are thinking about one thing, how to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince return to Iraq, only when they get there, the crown prince is the real emperor, and they can have real glory and wealth, instead of waiting to be shown to the public one by one by the Fishers in this muddy water, as for the more than 100,000 Iranian soldiers whose fate is unknown in this mud, does it have anything to do with them? No, fleeing with more than 100,000 people, such a big target, how can you escape, why bother with the life and death of these soldiers, as long as you bring your own dozen people!

"I was reckless, but I really can't accept it!"

The crown prince took a deep breath, the guard officer was his confidant, Moses was only one person, if he still needed to rely on Moses, an old minister of the empire, to suppress the whole army, then now, he no longer needed to deter this old guy virtually, he was the emperor of the Istanbul Empire, how could he follow these hundreds of thousands of desperate soldiers to die!" If in order to be able to survive and return to China, he bows his head to the enemy who killed his father, such an emperor, even if he really goes back, he will not be convinced!" said the crown prince slowly

"But without the help of the Falcon Empire, we wouldn't be able to ...... at all," the veteran Moses said with a stern face

"It's not us, it's the ordinary soldiers, it's they who need the mercy of the Falcon Empire. But you need me to sacrifice, Lord Moses, do you think it is appropriate? It is not impossible to go back, such as boarding a smuggling ship in disguise!" The crown prince's tone was cold, his eyes paused on the face of the veteran Moses, and he said slowly, "There is one of my squires who knows these smugglers, and the port of Morlua, fifty miles away, can board their ship, and now the Falcon Empire's navy is pressing in the direction of Triland Island with all its strength, and it is powerless to take care of other movements. As long as I'm on board, I'm safe!"

"Your Majesty, are you going to abandon the army and abscond?"

Moses' eyes were bloodshot and his fists were clenched. The trembling of his body's qi, as a general who has experienced a hundred battles, he is not afraid of death, even in the face of the fierce eyes of more than a dozen guards officers. Holding the hilt of the sword, he also said it out loud

"It's not absconding, it's going back home. It's to go back to my empire!" The crown prince was also enraged by Moses' stubbornness, and said categorically, "I am the emperor of the Istanbul Empire, and here, I am just your puppet! If it weren't for your loyalty, I could have killed you just now!"

"Then you might as well kill me now!" Moses' heart was full of coldness, twenty years of recuperation of a race, the heroic martyrdom of the Soladin generation, and the cross-sea expedition of hundreds of thousands of troops, is it just the result of this? 300,000 elites of the empire all died here, if it was possible, even if it was just a line, he would do his best, in order to stabilize the wavering military heart, he patrolled the battle line with his old body, and divided the remnants of more than 100,000 exhausted Iran soldiers into three lines of defense.

Because of the lack of combat arrows, he ordered all the team's arrows to be concentrated in the hands of a team of archers of 10,000 people, and the heavy infantry team was ruthlessly pushed to the front, in the rain, watching the muddy soldiers silently leaning together, letting the rain hit their bodies, the whole body was muddy and water, only the weapons were cold and dazzling, in the white rain curtain, looking at the figure of the cavalry of the Fishan army in front, like the appearance of hungry wolves at night,

These Fishan cavalry are famous for their rapid assault, wearing only light leather armor, equipped with shock spears and round leather shields, in terms of frontal combat power, the Fishan cavalry can only be regarded as an auxiliary army, but such light cavalry, in conjunction with the famous phalanx filling tactics of the Fishan people, in the fierce battle stalemate, or quickly poured in from the gap after gaining an advantage, for the current morale has fallen to the freezing point of the Iranian army, it will be a huge disaster, the appearance of these fast as the wind battlefield hungry wolves, has indicated that once the collapse, no one will be able to survive"Your Majesty, we need to leave immediately, the people of Feishan are coming soon!"

Just as the atmosphere in the cave was about to erupt, a guard officer stumbled in from outside the entrance of the cave and whispered in the crown prince's ear, the crown prince stood up like a rabbit with a tail stepped on, he didn't expect the Fishan people to come so quickly! The other party has been chasing after him for a few days, aren't these guys tired! Wait for the weather to get better? "How many people?" The crown prince took a piece of guard armor from a chamberlain, hastily changed his clothes, there were soldiers outside, if he didn't change his clothes, he would be found as soon as he left, and he still needed to rely on these soldiers to drag the people of Feishan!"Uncountable! It should be the convergence of Feishan's Seventh and Eighth Armies!" The officer swallowed with an ugly face

"Then what are you waiting for, are you waiting to die here?" the crown prince hurriedly fastened the buttons of his cuffs, snorted with a very dissatisfied face, and finally put on the guard armor as quickly as possible very awkwardly, regardless of his demeanor or immorality, he eagerly walked towards the entrance of the cave, and suddenly, a figure blocked the front

"Your Majesty, please consider ......" Moses made his last effort, his voice suddenly stopped, and a huge pain came from the back of his head, and the scabbard in the hand of one of the guards officers hit him hard in the back of the head, and another guard officer pulled out a cold dagger,

Before he fell unconscious, Moses heard someone ask, "Your Majesty, do you need to kill this old fellow who is in the way?"

"Forget it, leave him to the Faisans!"

On the front line of the Iranian army, the heavy infantry leaned on the queue with large shields, and the unarmored ones were simply crowded together, all of them turned pale, only to see a huge Guangping in front of them, and the heavy cluster of horses' hooves cracked like a landslide, one by one stopped in the spreading shallow water, rolling up a white splash,

Under the pale sky that had just stopped raining, this black-red assembly was cutting through the ground in front of it like a huge half-arc, and the Iranian soldiers saw that they were staggering, "My God, how much is this!"

No one noticed the escape of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and surrounded by a dozen or so retinues, the young Crown Prince turned over the horse that had been prepared long ago, and turned his head to look at the endless torrent of people and horses. Dense clouds of bayonet spears were spreading out along the back, and several queues were still marching along the terrain along the huge plain terrain in front of them, so that the military momentum almost covered the ground in front of them, and shocked everyone's minds, and the red and black armor of the Fishers was like a continuous flame dancing. The cavalry slowly rising is even more numerous and innumerable!

Almost instantly, this rolling red stream crashed into the first line of defense of the Iranian army, with a large number of assault cavalry as the front, followed by the shock knife, the morale of the Fisan army was calculated in tens of thousands, and the crowd was like an iron stream, like a flock of eagles in the sky swooping down from the distant earth,

Countless spears collided together, and in the gurgling crash, the fierce advancing Fishan cavalry bayonet pierced the body covered by the heavy infantry in the front row of the Iranian army, the bloodstains, the sound of "poof" sharp weapons piercing the body, and the countless arrows that fell densely into the air burst into the red blood mist in an instant

, the up and down of the combat power of the two armies, at the moment of collision, then the table xiàn came out,

Whether it is morale or courage is high, the Fishan army, in front of each cluster is the spearhead of thousands of people, the Istanbul army is like ice and snow meeting the sun, at the moment of impact, the entire defense line is reversed by the impact of the reverse blow,

The swift thrust of the spur spear poured down, broken, stirred up the flesh and blood, and the spear pierced through the flesh and blood of the Iranian army, even if the arm was dislocated due to the anti-shock force, Fessan's light cavalry also stabbed forward with the bayonet spear between the shoulders, and directly impacted the battle line of the Iraqi army in the fastest way

"Your Majesty, if you don't leave, it's too late!" someone urged in the crown prince's ear

"Let's go!" The crown prince gritted his teeth and waved his hand violently, the 300,000 Iraqi army is over, but it does not mean that the era of the Iraqi people is over! I will come back one day! Moses don't blame me, the crown prince is still His Majesty, only living makes a difference, this is what you told me to choose! (To be continued......)
