(362) The dark forces appear
"It's up to you!"
King Louis Lafalette I of Solan slowly raised his right arm and extended his index finger to point at a tall, thin young general.
"Wells, you are the new commander-in-chief of the army, and now, you have the command of the million-strong army of our Solan Kingdom army.
In other words, you are about to take control of the most powerful land military force in the world today, and I am looking forward to your performance, brave man! ”
"Thank you for your trust, I will not fail in my mission, and the world will be surrendered at your feet, Your Majesty!"
General Wells's eyes were blazing, and he took a step forward, trembling with excitement.
This man was a distant relative of King Louis Lafalette I, a young man who had been in trouble everywhere and had been punished several times in the military academy for fighting and brawling, but his grades were not bad, and his performance after joining the army was amazing, and he was later promoted for his exploits, and before the age of 30 he became a general in command of an infantry division, and was a well-known young talent in the kingdom.
General Wells has a fierce personality and advocates a very aggressive foreign policy, and is one of the representatives of the young Zhuang faction in the parliament of the Kingdom of Solan, he does not like hard work, but only plunder, and appointing him as commander-in-chief of the army is tantamount to starting a world war.
When the new officials with fierce personalities took office, the generals of the main battle faction in the tent looked ecstatic, while the others secretly worried about the future of the kingdom.
General Wells gave the king a standard military salute, and then said in a firm tone:
"Your Majesty, I will not let you down! The ignorance and incompetence of the former commander-in-chief will not be played out again, and I will go and draw up a new offensive plan!
I swear to take this fortress in two days, then set foot on the capital of Valstad, put the Empress of Salantos in an iron cage, and send it to you to display! ”
King Louis smiled with satisfaction: "Hehe, look, you all learn something for me, young and energetic people are different!"
Man, I know you're in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, but don't be too anxious, we have an absolute superiority in strength, and those Valstas don't have any chance, because our fourth fleet is on the way, and when they land, the total strength of our expeditionary force will reach 290,000. ”
At this time, a ragged colonel returned from the front to report that the man had been wounded in battle, blood was running down his skin, he had almost been thrown off his horse, and then stumbled towards the headquarters tent:
"Damn! Don't stop me! Hurry up and get out of the way! I have important military matters to report to His Majesty the King and Your Excellency! ”
Entering the tent, the colonel looked around puzzledly, and then saluted the king:
"Your Majesty...... May I ask where is our commander-in-chief, General Tiago? ”
Prince Begonzoli said on behalf of the king: "Major, you don't know, just now, General Thiago has been removed from his post, he has been handed over to the military court, General Wells is the new commander-in-chief of the army, and everything will be reported to him in the future." ”
"What is it that has made you like this, Colonel? Take a sip of water, slowly, His Majesty the King and I are here. General Wells said.
"Your Majesty, and my lords, I'm sorry I brought bad news, our siege force has suffered another setback, and ......
The defenders of the fortress launched a counterattack against our troops who had stormed the fortress, the 16th Infantry Division was routed, the division commander was killed, and the rest of the men were driven out of the walls, and the enemy was consolidating the defenses of the walls and filling the gaps that had been blown up. ”
General Wells angrily asked, "What? An organized massive counterattack? What the hell is going on? Isn't it that General Redmond, the general of the defenders of the enemy fortress, has been killed? ”
The colonel replied, "That information is true, but the new defending generals are even more difficult to deal with." ”
"Who is it?"
"Now a captain of the Varsta Guards cuirassiers, commanding the remaining defenders of the fortress, she has taken the lead in repelling many of our attacks.
The cavalry captain was as powerful as a bull! I saw with my own eyes that she had a terrible big axe in her hand and hacked to death no less than fifty of us in a row, it was terrible! Under her leadership, the remnants of the enemy's defeated troops were cheered up, and our morale suffered a heavy blow. ”
King Louis stood up with a look of astonishment:
“…… She?
You mean, the new guard of the Michian Schwagen Fortress is a woman? ”
The colonel said with a serious expression: "Yes, it's a woman, but don't look at her!" Like a demon, she carried a tomahawk and slashed people everywhere, and everywhere she went, blood flew and heads rolled.
For a moment, we almost killed her, when my brave lieutenant, Linde, shot her horse, and the woman fell from the saddle, and I took the opportunity to take a closer aim with my carbine, but unfortunately only hit her in the thigh.
And then...... The horrible didn't seem to care about the pain, and rushed straight at us!
She was actually much taller and stronger than she had seen from a distance, about 1.8 meters, and she moved swiftly like a ghost, wielding the terrible axe with dexterity, and lifting her weight like a dagger.
Mr. Linde's head moved in an instant, and the other people around him did the same, but fortunately I ran quickly to pick up a life, otherwise I would have been cut in two! ”
Hearing these terrible and incredible accounts, an old man sitting beside the king suddenly opened his eyes, and this man, who had been closing his eyes until now, stood up suddenly,
This man is the number one favorite of King Solan, powerful in the parliament, originally just a wizard of the southern tropical islands, because he cured the king's gout in a strange way, so he was reused, not only himself, but also a group of foreign religious forces under his command were also favored and favored.
This person is the leader of the notorious cult of Soskaya Voodoo, the Dark Sect, Diamund Xespar.
The Dark Patriarch's vicious terror is well known to everyone in the Solan Kingdom, and no one dares to question his power, and provocateurs will be cursed with a terrifying voodoo.
In the kingdom of Solan, although the power of Voodoo has grown in recent years, most people are still afraid and uneasy about these terrible black witchcraft, and oppose this foreign religion, so when the dark sect speaks, the generals in the tent invariably clench the hilt of their swords at their waists.
General Wells, the newly appointed commander-in-chief of the army, also frowned, but was speechless for the sake of the king's face.
