"No way!"

In the big tent, Ruhl looked angry. He threw his gloves on the table fiercely, supported the table with both hands, and gritted his teeth fiercely: "Your Highness." Do you know that such an order will only drag our army into a Jedi!"

In front of Ruhr, Garcia, the crown prince of the empire, who was also dressed in military uniform, had a grim face. Under the helmet, the golden hair pressed the eyebrows slightly, but the face was particularly gloomy: "I know." ”

"The Thirteenth Corps is cavalry. Ruhl took a deep breath. Trying to suppress the annoyance in my heart. He slowed down his voice and said in a deep voice: "The greatest role of cavalry is field warfare, once it enters the city, the use of cavalry is even inferior to that of infantry! Only by staying outside the city to fight in the field can the greatest restraining effect on the rebels. But once you enter the city. We're not even as good as an average infantryman!"

"I know that too. ”

"You! Your request is simply to order me to draw my sword and cut off the legs of my own cavalry!" Ruhr shouted angrily: "No matter what, I absolutely cannot accept your request! Although you are the crown prince, I am the commander of the 13th Corps personally appointed by His Majesty. Your Highness, you are only in the name of the Observer, and you have not restrained my power. ”

Dare to say such a thing to the future emperor, it is obvious that Ruhl has already let it go.

The wind was blowing outside, and I don't know how. Tonight's wind and thunder are particularly amazing, as if a storm is coming on this summer night.

Garcia had a cold face, still staring at Ruhl so closely.

Ruhl was a little hairy by the crown prince, but he still straightened his neck: "Your Highness, we have already discussed whether to enter the city when we arrived here! According to the battle situation, our best choice is to wander outside the city to seek fighters! ”

The crown prince's eyes did not waver, but he finally nodded, took a scroll from his bosom, and gently placed it in front of Ruhl.

When Ruhl saw it, his eyebrows raised: "Sent from the city?"

He naturally knew that although this crown prince was in his own army, the other party was the crown prince of the empire after all, and he had his own channels for news exchange with the city.

As he spoke, Ruhl unfolded the scroll, and after reading it quickly, the fat man's face suddenly changed, and his hand was quickly supported on the desk, so that his body did not stumble.

This scroll is not an appointment. But it's just a reward order. The content of the reward order also seems to have nothing to do with Ruhr: the emperor ordered the imperial prime minister Salembonili to be rewarded, and at the same time, the Solom family, where Salembonili belonged, was rewarded in a big way, and the reward was so high that it was rich. It's all jaw-dropping! It's as if the emperor was eager to give half of the power of the entire central government to the Sarumpo Ashikaga family!

Under normal circumstances, there would never be an emperor who would make such a crazy reward to any of his courtiers.

After reading this reward, Ruhl's face changed quickly, first shocked, but then the smart fat man soon had a flash of realization in his eyes. Raised his eyelids and glanced at Garcia. Seeing that the crown prince was also awe-inspiring, there was no sense of annoyance at all. He is the future master of the empire, but the current emperor actually gave half of his power to other courtiers, and this future emperor is not annoyed at all?

Weight-planing

Tuo Gu !!

This is Togu!!

Ruhl's heart suddenly thundered over this thought! It was Togu, and he deliberately picked up Salenbonelli! For what?

"Balance. The fat man's mouth spat out such a word, and when he sank his face again. Looking at the crown prince's eyes, he was already much more solemn, and the previous anger and annoyance had all subsided, but there was still a trace of deep unwillingness.

"I see. Ruhl's face twitched: "Just do what Your Highness says!" The whole army "Immediately assault and enter the city!" He clenched his fists hard, only to feel the blood dripping in his heart: "Even if the Rhodrian cavalry drains the last drop of blood, we will definitely escort you into the city,"

It's a helpless choice.

Or rather, the Ruhr simply had no choice.

He knew that strategically, it would be extremely stupid for the cavalry to abandon the field battle and enter the city to be trapped. He clearly knew that if suddenly it seemed that the army would break straight into the rebel defense line and force their way into the city, the troops would suffer great damage.

But he had to!

This reward order. Since it was the emperor who rewarded the prime minister, Sarunbonelli, why did the ear be sent out of the city and handed over to the crown prince?

Quite simply, it's a signal!

The old emperor told his son that I was no longer good, and that I had already entrusted the orphan to Salembonili! The old emperor didn't even need to say a word before he hinted at his son's strategy for the future: to promote Salembonili to balance Adric, who was in charge of the military.

No one-word suicide note, no one-word explicit words, just handing over this reward order is enough to explain everything.

What's more, Ruhl also understands that he has to go into the city.

Since the emperor has already entrusted Gu, it means that the emperor is dying, and it is even very likely. This scissors the emperor has been,,

Once Emperor Kantos is gone, the hearts of the army in the city will surely be shaken! At such a time, Garcia must enter the city! He must enter the city and join the throne!

If Garcia could not enter the city, and there was no emperor in the city, then the army would be unstable, and it would be difficult for Osgilia to continue to hold on. Even, if there is no emperor in the city, then most likely. All people with ulterior motives, even today,

Garcia had to get into town anyway! and immediately! right away!

There seemed to be a fire burning in the fat man's heart. He angrily rushed out of the big tent, and there was a roar from him: "Drum and blow the trumpet! The whole army is ready! All the officers will discuss it! ! In less than a moment, the military law will deal with it!!"

The heavy drums and the strong military horns sounded, and the originally quiet camp suddenly got up, and countless soldiers rushed out of the tents. Quickly wearing armor and weapons, the cavalry led the horses, and the auxiliaries ran back and forth with all the heavy ordnance.

The sound of the owl's boots, one by one, the officers rushed to the camp, although it was an urgent call, but after all, it was the Rodria cavalry, the iron army of the empire, none of these officers looked embarrassed, but everyone's face was full of fear and excitement.

Ruhl turned around and ran up, stood on the platform, and saw that the officers in the tent had arrived, and the fat man took a deep breath: "I don't have time to explain to you! Tonight, the whole army will raid the rebels, and we, , enter the city!!"

As soon as these words came out, the tent changed color, and some officers couldn't help but say loudly: "General, isn't it too urgent." Even if you want to enter the city, you must first give the soldiers some time to prepare! The war horses have not yet raised enough horsepower, and the team needs to be reorganized. ”

"Yes, General, and our plan for marching should also be carefully arranged. Which one hits first, which one is behind, if you give such a sudden order

Ruhl had a gloomy face, looked at these generals, and suddenly yelled: "Shut up!!"

He tore off his helmet and slammed it to the ground, his face full of hideous murderous aura: "What you say, I can't care about it now! Now I have only one order! Immediately go down and straighten out our own people! In a quarter of an hour, we will set off! Throw away all the heavy grain and grass!"

"Adult !!"

A brave officer stepped forward, looking at what appeared to be a general at the level of a flag regiment, looked up at Ruhr, and said loudly: "Even if we want to enter the city, we should make a plan before acting! Entering the city requires breaking through the rebel lines, which is not a trivial matter! If we are not careful, we may even be surrounded by the enemy! The best way is that after we have put things in order, the whole army will be pressed." Advance towards the rebel lines in an oppressive posture, lead them out into the field, and only need to defeat one or two rebels, and then wait for them to rout and get out of the way, and then we can calmly pass; nbsp; It's like the first guy we played when we got here. You gave such a rash order, regardless of everything, and suddenly asked everyone to abandon everything and set off overnight. There is no battle plan, there is no careful arrangement," the general showed a trace of dissatisfaction on his face: "Even if the cavalry of our main battle flag regiment can rush through! But what about those logistical auxiliary battalions? There are thousands of people in the three auxiliary battalions! They are not cavalry, so they can't rush over with us! Do you want to abandon them all here?"

Ruhl's face shook violently, and he gritted his teeth, but he didn't look at the officer who was talking. Instead, he turned his head and stared at the crown prince, his eyes were almost spewing fire!

Seeing the general's demeanor, several senior officers were somewhat faintly shaken in their hearts. There is another one. The officer stepped forward, but it was the quartermaster chief in the army.

"Your Excellency. ”

The quartermaster was an old man in the Rhodrian cavalry regiment, having served in the Rhodrian cavalry since Adric's time. The qualifications are also very old, and even when Ruer speaks to him on weekdays, he is extremely respectful and polite.

The old quartermaster opened his mouth, and Ruer took a deep breath, put away the annoyance on his face, and looked at him: "Please speak."

"My lord, we have been stationed here for a month, and the consumption of food and grass depends on local supplies. The original coercion has been exhausted. When the net came here, we still had 30,000 horses. But now there are less than 20,000. Last month, 80 percent of the soldiers' rations were distributed every day, but this month it has been reduced to 60 percent! Our combat strength is not in a good state at present, and it can be said that our soldiers have endured it for more than a month, and they can only eat half full every day, and everyone is gritting their teeth and persevering, just because we are Rhodrian cavalry! But the soldiers can still grit their teeth and endure hunger. Horses are not good! Due to the lack of fodder, we have already begun to slaughter the horses. At present, the remaining 16,000 horses can only be guaranteed to feed the 8,000 war horses in the best condition, and the rest "have all lost weight seriously!" The horsepower is also very insufficient. In other words, even if we had to fight now, we would only have 8,000 horses! We could only go up to 8,000 cavalry! nbsp; , the war horse is not strong enough, and if it is forced to go to the battlefield, it will be an adventure for the life of the soldiers."

The quartermaster's eyes were grim, and he continued: "Even if you don't summon me to the military today, I will come to you and persuade you to withdraw from the army! We can't hold out here anymore! It is better to retreat to the northeast, take down a town, replenish supplies, and then have at least another three or five days of repair." The fighters will be able to recover to their best. I don't know what caused you to suddenly issue such an order tonight, but I must remind you that such an order is at risk for the lives of all the officers and men of the army! We, the Rhodrian cavalry, are not afraid of death! However, we need a reason for us to die."

"Reason!" Ruhl's teeth rattled, and the fat man's heart suddenly swelled with infinite sorrow.

Do I say to these people, because the crown prince went back to the city to be crowned! So you have to die?!

"Everyone. ”

Just as Ruhl was about to bite his lip to bleed, the crown prince stepped forward.

Garcia tucked his helmet under his armpit and walked inside, only to bow deeply to the generals around him.

The crown prince gave such a big gift, which suddenly made all the generals change color, and they quickly lowered their heads.

Garcia lifted up and played a book with a fine notch mixed with a different body clam. "Xiao Hou, there is already a calm frightening on that face! Its heart-warming smell, but it sounded in this small tent, but with a kind of death-like loneliness!

"I know" said such a request. It's brutal. But tonight, I must ask you to come into the city for me!"

The crown prince's eyes were cold, but instead they exuded a determined light: "I must tell you the truth, just tonight." I have received a secret letter from the city!My esteemed father, His Majesty Kantos, the current Emperor of the Empire, is dying!!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the big tent suddenly changed color!

Garcia's face became more grim and raised his voice. "Everyone!!!!!

He raised his voice suddenly. Immediately attracted everyone's attention again.

Garcia's body stood up straight, and he said loudly: "In this war, the key to victory or defeat lies in Osgilia! If the imperial capital is defended, the empire will still have a glimmer of life! If the imperial capital is not defended, there will be no disaster! After the rebels conquer Osgilia, they can drive straight in. Straight south! More than 10 counties in the south will also be lost! The banner of the empire for a thousand years will be burned! At this moment, in the city of Osgilia, His Majesty the Emperor is dying. If His Majesty is gone, it can be imagined. There will be great chaos in the city! In the imperial capital, there must be no emperor for a day! Therefore, I must rush back to the city at once, take over the throne, and be crowned as the new emperor! If I do not return, Osgilia will not defend! If Osculia does not defend, the empire will not exist!! so tonight, no matter what, we must march."

When the crown prince said this, everyone in the big tent had quieted down, and they all looked at the crown prince with solemn eyes. Garcia bowed deeply again: "At the moment of life and death, the survival of the empire is between the kings!!"

No one spoke anymore, and all the generals bowed deeply to the crown prince, and when they raised their heads again, everyone had a blank expression!

Syllable!!

The fat man slapped the table and shouted: "Okay! Since the empire needs us to die, there is no one who is afraid of death in the upper and lower cavalry of Rodria!

All the generals immediately straightened up. Facing the Ruhr, everyone looked resolute.

"The Second Banner Regiment is ahead! Once the enemy is defeated, the two sides will be separated! The heavy cavalry of the first banner regiment is in the second wave, and your task is the heaviest, if the second banner regiment is defeated, then the heavy cavalry must crush anyone in front of you at all costs! The fourth banner regiment is mounted infantry, and you follow behind the heavy cavalry: "The task is to protect the crown prince! In the midst of the chaos, I don't care how many people you die, and no matter what method you use! Even if the fourth banner regiment is dead! The safety of the crown prince must be guaranteed! The crown prince is here. Osgilia is here, the empire is in!" exhaled. The fat man gritted his teeth: "After the "Third Flag Regiment" is broken, I am afraid that the Third Flag Regiment will suffer the greatest losses. There are not enough horses, and I need you to give priority to the best horses to supplement the first and second banner regiments! And when the enemy counterattacks, you must firmly hold back the pursuers

Speaking of this, the fat man couldn't bear to look at the expressions of the generals, he turned his head and said fiercely: "A quarter of an hour to rectify, listen to the trumpet sound." The whole army set out for camp! Gentlemen, this battle is "just death, so you should die hard."

The generals did not say a word, and after saluting silently to Ruhl, they turned away proudly.

Looking at these silent generals in the army... Leaving, Crown Prince Garcia's face also changed. It seemed that they wanted to say something, but the officers did not look at Garcia and all left.

"Your Highness, or perhaps I should address you at this moment, Your Majesty. Ruhl turned around and looked at the pale crown prince: "A few words, I must make it clear to you." ”

"General Ruhr, please speak. ”

"Our entire army and its officers and men have been starving for nearly a month! Our entire army has only 8,000 war horses that still maintain intact combat effectiveness! I can barely muster together 10,000, and 10,000 tired and hungry cavalrymen are riding war horses with insufficient physical strength! But I have to be unplanned and unprepared. To attack the defense line of hundreds of thousands of rebels! In this battle, the Rhodrian cavalry regiment will suffer huge losses, and even the end of the regiment will not be nothing. But I assure you, no matter what. Even if these 10,000 people fight to the last drop of blood. If I die on the battlefield, I will definitely send you to the city!"

Ruhl smiled miserably, but in this smile. But it's more hideous.

"We, the people in the army, it is our duty to die for the country! But I ask Your Majesty not to forget today! Don't forget the blood shed by the Rhodrians for Your Majesty and for this empire today! Don't forget these 10,000 heroic souls who knew to die but acted generously!!"

Garcia stood solemnly, and then faced Ruhl: "I swear again, for the rest of my life, I will not dare to forget today!"

Ruhl looked at the crown prince in front of him, the supreme who was about to become the new emperor of the empire: "Please go and get ready, Your Majesty, I still have to pack up." ”

Garcia silently walked out of the big tent. Ruhl had already sat down.

The fat man patted the fat on his face, suddenly smiled, and scolded something in a low voice, before he said to himself, "Damn." I've been running for a lifetime" this time, but I had to hit the wall hard. This kind of approach really doesn't fit my Ruhr-sama's style!haha!hahahahaha

Suddenly, a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he shouted in a low voice: "Reinhardt!

Outside the door, a young officer dressed in the uniform of an officer of the Guards Battalion strode in, it was the same light officer who came from the Imperial Affairs Academy and came to the Ruhr guide.

"Reinhardt, you've already submitted your resignation to me, and you're going to go into town with us tonight. Still is

The young officer looked at Ruer, his face was serious at first, and then he suddenly smiled: "My lord, please forgive me for being a different body clam, I don't want to talk about the city, you lead the army to set off, and your subordinates plan to leave the stone factory on horseback. ”

Ruhl didn't look surprised. Looking at this young officer, whom he admired very much, he said: "Hehe! Sure enough, he is a student trained by Cavishir! Unlike us guys, who only know how to send a tendon to death." ”

"My lord, my subordinates are not afraid of death, but Mr. Cavishir has taught us that death is not terrible, what is terrible is wasting life and not achieving the goal. Your subordinates don't take your decision right tonight. It was decided to leave a useful body for the future. ”

Leave a useful body, ha!

The fat man raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you now?!"

Reinhardt was expressionless, but shook his head: "If you do this, you will not be General Ruhr, and you will not be worthy of Mr. Cavishir's other eyes on you in the first place." ”

"So, you're deciding to go north. Go to that mad dog Green, go to Char Thundering, go to that guy Char Thundering, the crown prince here, the emperor here, the capital of the empire here! You're a soldier. But you want to go north somewhere else?!"

In the face of such a fierce question, Reinhardt looked calm, looked at Ruhr, and said calmly: "The emperor can not be the emperor, as for the imperial capital." It's just a city. The general's conviction is different from that of his subordinates, and his subordinates are not willing to be loyal to only one person or one family! His subordinates are loyal only to the country! His lord is willing to gamble the lives of all the officers and men of the army tonight, just because he is convinced that the matter of the crown prince's accession to the throne is the most important thing for the empire! But his subordinates are not the same. The difference between subordinates and adults is that the loyalty of adults is to the emperor, and the loyalty of subordinates to the country has been well known to the subordinates since the beginning of this war. ”

He suddenly sneered: "Your Majesty is willing to give up half of the northern territory and half of the people of the empire. Throwing them into the flames of war and ignoring only the south" is a clever plan. But if you think about it carefully, this plot is "for the sake of the stability of the imperial family, or for the sake of this empire?" Since His Majesty the Emperor began to release half of the country in order to stabilize the imperial family, this royal family is no longer worthy of the loyalty of his subordinates to death!"

Rurkin's body was shocked, and he stared at this young officer, staring at this young man who actually said such a big rebellious remark!!

Ruhl's eyes were like lightning, and Reinhardt just stood there and looked at each other calmly, but his eyes did not waver in the slightest.

Ruhl lowered his head and pondered for a while, and when he raised his head, his face was also expressionless, but his voice was hurried and fast!

"There are no horses, I can only muster 10,000 cavalry to fight! There are other battalions and auxiliary battalions in the battalion. In total, there are more than 3,000 soldiers and soldiers of all colors. There are still three or four thousand horses, but they are all weak horses. These people, after our main force goes into battle, will not be able to hold this big battalion. Once the rebels came, it was ruined. Or just disperse, "I'll give you a warrant and make you my personal guard battalion officer, and I will leave you all these 3,000 people." Listen to your command. ”

Ruhl stood up and walked up to Reinhardt: "These are some of the seeds left by my Rhodrian cavalry" Rather than just scattering here and engulfing in the chaos, it is better to hand them all over to you, if you have the ability, take them all out, go to the north, go to Green, find Char's boy."

The three thousand men and horses were handed over to him, but the young Reinhardt did not have the slightest trace of pride or excitement, but instead sighed and smiled bitterly: "General, you really look up to me He touched his nose: "It is thousands of miles to the north, if I leave alone, incognito, sneak all the way, and it will not be difficult to reach the northern Mor County." But you give me these 3,000 men and horses and let me command, and this road is thousands of miles, but it is all enemy-occupied area! 3,000 weak soldiers have to go straight through the enemy area for thousands of miles." ”

Ruer snorted: "The disciple of Kavehill is also the elite of the Emperor's Academy, this matter should be difficult for you."

Reinhardt sighed, and finally nodded with a sad face: "The subordinates will try it desperately." ”

Ruhl didn't talk nonsense, he directly wrote a warrant on the case, stamped it with the general's mark, and threw it to Reinhardt: "You wait for my large army to come out of the camp and then go and collect the people, so as not to mess up people's hearts", and don't let other flag group people know, especially, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince

Reinhardt's face was expressionless, and he took the warrant into his arms, but he faced Ruhr, and suddenly his legs were together. Straightened up and solemnly made a military salute.

The young officer, with his head straightened, said in a deep voice: "General, although I do not agree with your choice, I admire you and the will of the whole army to die! If it weren't for my other beliefs in my heart, I would not have been able to stay here tonight." Reinhardt is not a person who fears death, but because the belief in freedom in my heart has not been completed, leaving a useful body for the future. If we have the opportunity to meet,"

At this point, the young officer's eyes were already red. But he couldn't say any more, so he simply gritted his teeth: "Although it is only a few months, being able to serve by the general's side and serving in the Rhodria Cavalry Corps is the most glorious experience of Reinhardt's life!"

After saying that, the officer, named Reinhardt, had already turned around. With his head held high, he strode out, his steps were firm, and he didn't even look back!!

Ruhl stood still, watching this year's light and heroic back disappear from the tent, but suddenly smiled.

"Rodria cavalry" Hmph! After tonight, I am afraid that there will be no more Rhodes in these realms
