(578) Unexpected encounters
"It's them, that's right!"
Mayer Onassis was so excited that his eyebrows fluttered; The buckle on the boot stuck in the stirrup, and the body was crooked, almost falling off the saddle:
"I saw the banner of the Royal Forbidden Army, Her Majesty the Mother Emperor must be directing the battle nearby!"
A general drew his sword and shouted: "Long live the Emperor!" Victory is ours! Everyone followed suit, and the morale was instantly boosted, and the warriors' tired bodies and minds were restored.
"Win this battle under your nose first, and then it's not too late to celebrate!"
With that, Edgar Midknight pulled the blood-stained bandage open and tossed it aside, and the crowd rushed to scramble for it, and a soldier who adored her gathered it away as a precious souvenir.
I only heard the princess in military costume say to Prince Meyer: "What are you waiting for, my good brother, hurry up and give the order!" ”
"Steady, little sister, I will give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, and later your troops will go and join the infantry of the Guards first, and see if there is anything you can help with."
Due to the lack of prior preparations, the Northern Army hastily joined the battle,
The enemy was clearly determined to hold the metropolis, and once they reached the east side of the city wall, they could see the main force of the Voodoo Cathars.
Due to the old fortifications of the city, they could only be beaten passively by shrinking their heads and holding on, so they wisely chose to go out of the city to meet the battle, so as to spread out a large number of troops.
The main forces of the southern army led by the emperor himself were gathered in the direction of the woods on the outskirts of the city, and they were attacking the enemy's strongest right flank, and the northern army of Prince Meyer began to advance on the other side.
All the Valstad soldiers who were on the front line immediately noticed that the enemy here was different from what they had encountered before,
The Cathar force is a large number of elite troops of dervishes and martyrs, and these most devout and crazy voodoo cultists fight to the death, but their weaknesses are also obvious: these people are not professional soldiers, and their weak military qualities limit their performance.
After the head-on collision, the two warring sides were extremely close on their fronts, biting together like dogs, charging each other in an attempt to seize the initiative.
At this time, William Einfurt had completely recovered from his injuries and was in a good state of energy, and the young man was determined to carry out the artillery charge tactics to the end.
William placed his heavy artillery on a high ground near the south side of the city wall, and he himself marched forward with four light artillery companies.
Engaging the enemy at medium and close ranges, using solid shells and shotguns to kill and wound a large number of living forces, forcing an infantry division to retreat continuously.
"Well played! They withdrew! Move forward 200 meters! William was about to continue the pursuit, but was stopped by a friendly general.
This man was a short officer with a strong body, a calm and mature attitude,
His military uniform was covered by splashes of mud, his rank was unrecognizable, his face was blackened by gunsmoke, and his voice was hoarse from the cold, making him completely unrecognizable.
"Boy, I advise you to stop quickly, there will be no good fruit to eat if you go deep alone! Wait until the infantry presses up to cover it. ”
William was enjoying the fight, and his passion as a young general was completely ignited, where could he listen to the advice of his predecessors, he replied in a somewhat rude tone.
"You want me to stop? Never! I have the trust of His Royal Highness the Prince, and I have the power to act on my own, and it is not your turn to direct me what to do! ”
The man was not in a hurry, but continued to persuade:
"Hey, you kid, you haven't grown all your hair, you're quite arrogant! I kindly tell you that you will suffer if you do not listen to the advice of the veteran on the battlefield, and Prince Leopold's artillery charge must not be too aggressive! ”
Hearing someone refute himself in the area where he was most proud, William looked extremely unhappy and pulled down his face:
"Sir, you're too wide! Isn't it just a few years early, what's the big deal! Pointing fingers at us young people!
Tell you! I am an authoritative expert in the field of artillery! There are few people in the Imperial Army who are qualified to guide me! William Einfurt patted his chest and said this, looking quite confident, and was about to lead his troops forward.
The short officer in front of him seemed amused, and he grabbed William with his dirty hand; "Boy, it looks like you don't recognize who I am."
Seeing that the enemy was about to flee the firing area and that the good fighter plane was about to be delayed, William became a little impatient, and said angrily:
"Who the I care about you! It's annoying! Let go! ”
The short man snorted, looking extremely contemptuous:
"Who are you scolding, little one, Lao Tzu is your father!"
"What did you say?" William spat and scolded, "you#的!" I'm still your grandfather! ”
As soon as William finished scolding, his heart suddenly trembled, as if he felt that something was wrong,
The short officer's figure looked more and more familiar, and he hadn't paid much attention to it just now because he was in a hurry and excited, and he had already vaguely guessed the answer by savoring his voice.
When the man saw William's embarrassed appearance, he couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed, "Haha, you stupid boy! With this smile, a mouthful of yellowed teeth appeared on his dark face.
An adjutant handed him a soaked towel, wiped off the stains, revealing a resolute and mature masculine face; A pair of cyan eyes were shining, and this person was actually Darly Ainfurt, the prime minister of the empire.
"Father...... Father......"
William Einfurt stood like a schoolboy who had done something wrong, his pride and arrogance swept away, and his men were amusedly silent.
"Father...... I'm sorry...... I was too excited to recognize you, those rude words...... It's all a misunderstanding! ”
"Boy, you're getting older, you're getting taller, and I'm not even able to reach you! I command you, in your capacity as the Prime Minister of the Empire, to bend down and bow your head! ”
William did as he was told, his mouth shrinking and his eyes squinting, ready to be slapped with a big mouth.
Dali Einfoot curled his fingers and flicked a brain melt at Aiko's head:
"Hmph, this is a punishment for your disrespect! You think I'm going to pump you? I don't dare to beat you bastard, after all, you are our Majesty's beloved son-in-law.
Boy, have you forgotten everything you've learned at the academy?
In a hurry like you, you rush and fight without judging the situation on the battlefield...... What kind of cannon charge tactics are such brute force, if Lord Leopold knows about it, you stupid apprentice will be amused! ”
Despite the colder weather at this time, a few beads of sweat of shame welled up on William's face:
"Yes...... What you're teaching is ...... It's the son who is proud of his achievements and overconfident......"
"It's good to know!
You kid let me stay where I am and support the infantry with fire! ”
