Chapter 105: Dedication of the City
As the speed of the march increased, Rollin soon led his peak knights to the first border city of the Silver Fall Empire. It may be better to say that it is a border city, and it may be better to describe it as a barrier. There are a lot of such barriers at the border, there are one every few kilometers, and the number of people in it is only a few dozen.
There are only dozens of people, the equipment is still average, and the strength of the soldiers is even more ordinary. Therefore, even if they have a barrier to defend against, they will not be able to resist in the slightest. It's just shattered in the blink of an eye.
If it weren't for Rollin's permission, they wouldn't have been able to even raise the alarm.
As their alarm sounded, and Rollin's invasion quickened, Rollin soon encountered a decent border city, a decent army. But it's just 'decent'.
This is the main city with a wall of dozens of kilometers around, and there is a general in it, and thousands of people are stationed here. As the alarm sounded, he had already brought the army to rescue and ambush Rollin's army.
This result, naturally, is self-evident, but it was completely defeated in the blink of an eye.
The peak knights of Rollin didn't even have any wounded, so it can be seen that the situation is one-sided, and it is simply exaggerated to the extreme.
A thousand people were captured by Rollin, and more than 800 people were captured.
Subsequently, Luo Lin took these more than 800 people and attacked the next border city. Soon, like a snowball, the frenzied accumulation accumulated.
One city after another, in one day, more than 300 kilometers in a row, almost non-stop capture, no need for the process at all.
Soon, a rather large snowball rolled up under Rollin's command.
An army of 30,000 men.
Naturally, this is a contingent formed by the army that came all the way to capture them. They had no choice but to join Rollin's army under the threat of death, and were led by Rollin, pushing all the way, and along the way, they saw the invincibility of Rollin's army more and more, so they became more and more afraid and did not dare to resist. There were even many soldiers among them who cheered and swore allegiance to Rollin. Of course, these people are only a minority, but it is the existence of these few people that makes these 30,000 people not have the slightest intention of rebellion.
In this way, Rollin's 600 people, pressing 30,000 people, went all the way. This is a ridiculous and frightening situation.
However, the first day was finally over, and the sun had set in the western mountains, and Rollin ordered repairs to allow these captives to adjust their state, and tomorrow began to attack the first province in the northwest of the Silver Fall Empire, Kaki Province.
This is an area near the Khaki Mountains, directly above the Silverfall Empire.
At this time, Luo Lin's fiery offensive had already spread to this side.
The whole province of Khaki is in complete disarray.
The eyes of the executive governor of Khaki Province were full of shock: "How is it possible? In one day, the entire city was swept over, and 13 border cities were captured?"
Thirteen cities in one day. Even in mythological stories, there has never been such an exaggeration. Not to mention reality.
The Governor hurriedly summoned many of his confidants and began to discuss.
For a while, the sound of disputes kept coming from the conference room.
It is inevitable that there will be disputes due to differences of opinion and opinions, but what is the situation now? We will face a serious threat and even a catastrophe. The governor of the province of Kaki was furious and roared.
The anxiety of the governor of Kaki Province, Luo Lin did not know, and he would not think about it, this night was uneventful, and it passed quickly.
On the second day, Rollin set out for the province of Kaki with his peak knights and an army of 30,000.
Because the speed of the capture was so fast, now the khaki province probably didn't have time to convey this situation to the imperial capital, and they hurriedly prepared to resist.
The first city in the province of Khaki that Rollin faced was called Ferry City.
Next to the Ferry City, there is a large river called the Ferry River.
The water of the river is so clear that you can almost see the sand and gravel at the bottom of the water, and the city built on this river naturally has a different style, but unfortunately, it is inevitable that it will be attacked by war today.
Just the night before yesterday, the information that Rollin's army had begun to approach also reached the city lord of Ferry City.
The city lord Salot, who is over fifty years old, although he was born as a warrior, is resolute, and his strength is not weak, but after receiving this information, his palms trembled, and his whole body was paralyzed for a while, and he almost fainted.
"Where did these people come from? It is so terrifying that it is unbelievable that today, in just one day, thirteen border cities have been captured, and those fortresses are innumerable. How terrifying is this concept?"
"And...... Moreover, these people are even more with an army of prisoners, there are 30,000 or 40,000 people, so many people have swept over, how should I deal with it? No, I can't go on like this, I must move troops to the governor for help, otherwise, in less than an hour, the ferry city will die. ”
It is precisely because he has been in the army for many years and is already fifty years old that he knows more and more clearly how much the horror of the achievements caused by Rollin has meaning!
At this moment, a cold wind struck, and the objects in the room were blown and thumped, and he shook again, feeling weak for a while, and said helplessly: "Why is it so sudden?"
The adjutant next to him, listening to Salot's mournful cry, thought about it, and couldn't help but say: "City Lord, our army in Ferry City is only one thousand and five, and we can't defend it at all, if the Governor doesn't move his troops over tomorrow morning, we should retreat first! ”
"Where do I have the courage to retreat from the city? If I do this kind of thing, my reputation in this life will be ruined. Salotte quickly shook his head and said.
"But if you don't retreat, you will definitely die......," said the adjutant, a little pale, who also knew the danger of the situation.
"Lord of the City!!!
Salotte was stunned for a moment, nodded, barely calmed down, and said, "Hurry up!"
"The Governor told the lord of the city to hold on for one day, and then he could abandon the city and retreat!
Salotte sat directly on the chair: "Stick to the day, how can it be so simple?"
He closed his eyes a little weakly.
Fifteen hundred troops, thirty or forty thousand defense troops, and that unbelievably powerful cavalry, this ...... How can it be?
He had some realization, and the Governor had given up on him.
Case......
On the second day, when Rollin approached Ferry City with his army, and felt that this beautiful city was about to be cleansed by war, the lord of Ferry City actually opened the city gate and came to greet Rollin's army from afar......
It was surrendered without a fight, and the city was sacrificed.
