Chapter 1024: The Victor Is Not Condemned?
"Your Tiyì?" Angel looked at the gray-robed man inexplicably.
The gray-robed man sneered and laughed, but at the same time, he secretly cursed in his heart: all of them are as shrewd as ghosts. I want to be a bitch and I want to set up a chastity archway. Phew, how can there be so many things in this world?
Of course, the gray-robed man knew that Angel was pretending to be confused and wanted to fool himself. But......
He looked at the other party's flickering and somewhat evasive gaze, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart: If the opponent is Hadu, maybe he is still qualified. But this little rabbit cub who has not yet exhausted his fetal hair actually wants to play sloppy with the uncle?
He's also worthy?
Uncle doesn't need to dip sweet noodle sauce when he eats it raw~!
Moreover, with the Northern Coalition pressing in, there is not much time left for them to operate. Chapter 1024: The Victor Is Not Condemned? (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
According to his original plan... As soon as you get here, you should have Haddou's support and take it in stride.
After such a long time, the entire Almohad empire has long been in its hands.
It's a pity that Amor and Haddou are an out-and-out old fox.
Amor, although Haddou did not dare to offend himself, he did not seem to be interested in the powerful power he wielded, and only prevaricated.
Facing this shrewd Hadu, the gray-robed man felt that his proud IQ was a little insufficient.
The old guy seemed to be able to see through people's hearts with just a glance of his eyes.
And what they were planning could not have been carried out without Haddou's support.
In this regard, the gray-robed man could only complain in private that Hadu had killed himself.
As the information from the front line was passed on to their hands one by one, the gray-robed people knew that time was running out for them.
Without such a place as Almohad to gain a foothold, it will be difficult for their plans to unfold.
Fortunately, at this time, Amor Haddou fell.
By the way, Ya deserves it~!
All day long just thinking about what kind of command art to rely on, what kind of soldier Chapter 1024 The victor is not condemned? to win the battle.
Grandma's, obviously her brain was caught by the door~!
This time in the battle of Prisca, this peerless celebrity was slapped by that little white face~!
Fight bravely, command wisely.
There's a fart in front of a powerful spell~!
So many arrogant soldiers, haven't they been blasted to pieces by the opponent's magic alchemy cannon?
Although he and Lorraine are bitter enemies, they are really impressed to see the other party use alchemy to create such a powerful weapon of mass destruction.
At the same time, there is also a slight pride in that feeling.
A pride to be a mage~!
Since the gods and knights have become more and more developed and powerful, although the mages are still treated preferentially, it has to be admitted that due to their natural numerical inferiority, they have gradually declined. The glory days of the past have been lost.
That ancient belonged to the glorious age of magical civilization.
That era when magicians could move mountains and reclaim the sea with a wave of their hands, calling for wind and rain.
But gradually, that time has passed.
More and more magicians had to step down from the altar in order to survive, in order to be able to do real, bow their noble heads, and become vassals of the powerful.
Every time the New Year is celebrated, he also uses his precious mana to perform some smoke huā performances to please the dead people and nobles.
migbd~!
The magician has been reduced to the same status as the clown.
How embarrassing is this?
But after the battle of Prisca, with the blood dripping under the city of Prisca, and the corpses on the pillow, it was announced to the world.
Our mage is still the strongest~!
Faced with a powerful magic weapon, Haduna was finally beaten to the ground, but he only bled out of anger after losing so many excellent soldiers. If you just roll your eyes and kick your feet, it will be more perfect.
But then again, if he does die. This is bound to be a big mess, and when the time comes, it will be even more difficult for you to act if you want to.
Thankfully, Nahr, the little fox, couldn't wait to take his father's place.
In the eyes of the gray-robed man, this wise and martial prince is still a little chick that has just hatched and has an eggshell on its buttocks.
Proud, arrogant, complacent, empty-eyed, ambitious to do something big, but unrealistic. And only he takes himself very seriously.
However, the gray-robed man saw hope in him, so the first one who succeeded Haddou in Angel made a special trip to stop him here, and even did not hesitate to explicitly help him kill the internal enemies.
Seeing that Angel was still pretending to be stupid in front of him, the gray-robed man couldn't help but feel a little funny, and said secretly: Knowing that he doesn't have any bargaining chips, he still dares to pretend to be stupid?
Although the little rabbit cub has a good father, everyone else has to look at his father's face and will not bully him. But he doesn't mind banging and banging this guy who will only be beaten behind someone's ass, and then flattered for a few words, thinking that he is really like his father, an idiot who has become a future star of fame.
Thinking of this, the gray-robed man shook his head slowly, and said regretfully: "Eldest son, I have to say that I thought you were wiser than your father, but it seems that I was wrong. ”
Angel raised his head slightly, looked at the gray-robed man and sneered, and said secretly in his heart: Everyone knows that you guys are not well-intentioned, and I will only die faster if I use you.
"Tut-tut" The gray-robed man shook his head and sighed, his face hidden in the shadow of his hood could not be expressed, but he must have a look of regret when he thought about it.
Then he continued: "Do you really think you still have a chance?"
Angel smiled confidently and said, "How do you know if you don't try, it's not the tradition of our Hadu family to be captured." ,
The gray-robed man laughed and said, "Okay, the young man really has courage. In that case, let me analyze the current situation for the eldest prince. The enemy currently has 120,000 troops stationed on the north bank of the Zamibia River.
In the north, 400,000 troops are slowly moving southward, recruiting rebels along the way, and clearing out the remnants of our southern army that will have time to break through in the future.
Once they have reached their positions, they will cross the Zamibiya River and enter the south.
As far as I know, the only ships that carry grain and grass to and from them every day are almost the first line connected at sea.
What's more, they have a weapon like cannon, and even your father admits that artillery will change war.
Don't forget that your father was defeated by Lorraine's cannons.
By the way, I don't mean to be disrespectful.
Even we, until now, have not found effective means of dealing with artillery on the battlefield. And that's just an external problem. ”
The gray-robed man held up a finger.
Angel's face was a little ugly, and he tensed his mouth and looked at the gray-robed man with an unkind expression.
The gray-robed man raised another finger and said, "You still have internal worries." Although the Southern Army claimed to be 100,000, it had less than 60,000 troops. Not to mention the loss in Prisca. Your strength is actually only one-tenth that of the enemy. ”
Angel sighed dejectedly, he always had a thousand ways, but when he thought that the enemy was ten times his own, he had no confidence.
The gray-robed man smiled smugly and said, "Of course, if you uh, our leader is General Hadu, then it goes without saying.
With his superb command and exquisite strategy, coupled with the bravery of the officers and men of our three armies, it is not impossible to fight.
At the very least, if you hurt the enemy, you can earn bargaining chips. But General Hadu seems to be unable to recover for a while, and your position is unstable~!"
When Angel heard the last sentence, a blazing fire flashed in the pupils of his eyes.
This sentence stung him deeply.
He knew that the Grey Robe had said that his greatest concern was that although he was Haddou's heir, he was too young to have enough prestige to serve the people, and he did not have a direct army of cronies.
Temporarily replace Haddou, you can~!
But Haddou's men are all proud soldiers.
After a long time, if there are internal contradictions and disagreements, no one will listen to him.
The gray-robed man patted Angel's shoulder and said, "What's more, the second son seems to have a little different thoughts about you being in charge." I heard that the old lady likes the second son very much. Angel forced a bitter smile.
"And more importantly, you think your men are united, and no one has any other thoughts when the catastrophe strikes?"
If he hadn't mentioned it to the gray-robed man, he really hadn't thought of this aspect, but after the gray-robed man reminded him, Angel instantly realized that this problem not only existed, but also was very fatal.
The enemy's army was overwhelming, and Ren Sui could not see any hope of victory, and even Haddou himself had the idea of fighting to the death.
In this case, in order to save their lives, some people in the southern army can do anything.
The peacekeepers have indicated that they want Haddou's head, not their shrimp soldiers.
Most of the people in the Southern Army don't have a bitter hatred for the Almohads Empire, they just have different bosses.
If you surrender, you can at least save your life, and if you make some contribution to the Almohad Empire's government, you can save your glory and wealth.
In this way, surrender is not an unacceptable thing.
Especially after the Battle of Prisca, even Haddou was defeated, and he vomited blood in a coma in anger, and the Southern Army could not help but feel that the future was bleak.
Some people would be reluctant to sink with the wrecked ship Haddou.
Angel sighed inwardly, and only then did he feel the huge gap between him and his father.
The gray-robed man said indifferently: "As far as I know, several generals in the north have often seen some fresh faces recently. ”
Looking at Angel's questioning expression, the gray-robed man shook his hand and said, "Don't ask Lou how he knows, we always have some special means." ”
Angel also felt that there was something unusual about the generals who did not come back to visit Haddou under the pretext of the military emergency.
Usually, even if the Haddou kitten has a cold, they will run back to condole, and even if they really can't come, they will take the lady route and let the family visit them instead.
This time, the two generals only sent a message back, not even a letter.
And their family, it seems, was no longer in Harrigad a few months ago.
Angel suddenly realized.
He slapped his palm hard and scolded hatefully: "Grandma's gang of two or five boys, it turns out that they have long been anti-hearted~!"
The gray-robed man sighed and said, "Now, don't you understand, eldest prince, that it's only us now... It is your staunchest ally, and only we have the strength to help you.
And we're just a bunch of Avengers, with the same goals as you, but no conflict of interest, neither asking for your land nor competing with you for the crown. ”
"The Emperor...... Crown~!" Angel said.
The gray-robed man nodded and said, "Yes, you heard it right, the crown, as long as you achieve victory, the Almohad, this crown will be placed on the head of your eldest son."
The victor is not condemned, my dear son, as long as you are the final victor, the world will only sing the praises of your great deeds.
To do this, you only need to pay a little bit of cooperation. ”
Angel hung his head and muttered to himself, "If I don't do this, all that awaits us Haddou is death." If it's a dead end, why don't you give it a go?"
The gray-robed man looked at Angel with satisfaction and said slowly, "What you said is very right. ”
Angel clenched his fists and shouted, "it, why do we have to wait for death." Teacher, you are right, the victor is not condemned. ”
The gray-robed man nodded and said, "As it turns out, you'll be proud of this decision."
Now let's discuss the action ...... of the first step"
"We need a special place, and we need someone you can trust completely," the gray-robed man grabbed Angel's arm and walked towards a hidden place in the backyard.
xx、x、x、x
One of the traditional forces of Haddou in Kirkfors, an important province on the south bank of the Zamibia River, is not rich compared to Harua Province, and the people in the mountainous areas of the territory are fierce, often drawing swords at the slightest disagreement, and it is known as a place where poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people.
But the soldiers of Kirkfors, who were also the best soldiers of the Southern Army, were also known for their skill in mountain warfare and bravery.
The Zindelun Pass is important as a gateway to the capital city of Middelburg and most of Kirkfors.
In order to guard against the imperial government in the north, Haddou operated here for many years.
The pass of the Zindelun Mountains has been transformed into a huge and impregnable mountain barrier, which is known as an insurmountable natural hazard.
If you can't cross the Zindelun Pass, you can't directly enter the province of Kirkfors, and the only way to do this is to make a detour from both sides.
This is why the New Army took the Jindelun Pass without paying huge casualties during the first southern expedition, and it was so carried away.
This was also the sad place for the new army, where they were ambushed and suffered heavy losses, so they had to flee back to the north in a hurry, losing the initiative on the battlefield.
After the start of the battle, the pass of the Zindelun Mountain was guarded by the southern army of a whole army, and with these forces alone, even if the 100,000 troops from the opposite side could not knock on the wall of the Zindelun Pass.
A stocky middle-aged man stood on the tallest tower at the pass of the Zindrun Pass, facing north and looking out over the mountains and plains beneath his feet.
He had a dark and rough face, a large beard, a lion nose and a wide mouth, and a military uniform, and the whole person looked extremely powerful.
He was Haddou's number one general, Quindus and Pierdius, who commanded the army in Kirkfors.
It has been more than 30 years since Hadu followed him in the northern and southern wars when he was a small officer.
He is also the second person in the Southern Army after Haddou. He commanded four legions and more than 20,000 Kirkfors soldiers.
It was Quindus who had defeated the new army that had taken the initiative to attack a year earlier by luring the enemy into depth.
The Almohad Empire's government has offered him a reward of 50,000 gold coins, and he still lives or dies.
At this moment, Pidius was looking into the distance in a daze without saying a word, and the subordinates behind him also knew that when the boss was thinking, he hated being interrupted the most.
But a young man who looked like a staff member, striding with the sound of a mountain on the soles of his feet, stepped several steps with each step, and came to Quintus breathlessly.
Pidius frowned in displeasure, and his stiff face made the hearts of the officers around him skip a beat, and they all knew that the boss really killed people when he started the fire.
The young man lowered his head and whispered in Quintus's ear.
Pidius had a fierce look on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, General, they have been ordered to prepare for the battle. The young man nodded.
Pidius slapped the city wall angrily and scolded loudly: "Huangkou Xiaoer~!How dare he?"
"My lord, what's going on?" the officers around them asked nervously.
Pidius waved his hand, and the young man turned to the crowd and said, "The eldest prince himself took the position of Lord Haddou, and ordered the division of troops to attack Alpha and other places. ”
"Huh~!" The people around were in an uproar for a while, in their opinion, since Hadu was sick, now the entire Southern Army should listen to their boss, the second person in the Southern Army, Pierdius, not the eldest son who has just grown up, how can he have any experience in commanding the army to fight, and that little achievement is not all blown out by others.
"This" The officers looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Pidius took a few big breaths, forced down the anger in his heart, and said, "Old Adu has made a positive and brittle plan... , Angel's kid actually scattered his troops and played the piano~!
There are not enough successes and more failures, so how can we fight now? Will Kirkfors defend or not?"
"Do you want to go back and persuade the eldest prince?" someone said.
Pidius shook his head and said angrily, "Is persuasion useful?
Alas...... Amor fell too suddenly. ”
Hadou has always been the only leader of the Southern Army, and if this leader is suddenly paralyzed, the entire Southern Army will naturally have problems.
Everyone thought that they might have to fight the peacekeepers under the command of Angel, and they all shook their heads in unison, which was simply impossible.
Pidius said: "I still misread him, this kid, when he seized power, he was really fast." ”
"My lord, do we listen to the orders from Haligard or not?" Someone raised the question that most concerned everyone, the enemy is overwhelmed by a large army, if there is any more infighting over the issue of command, then this battle will simply be stopped.
Pierdius hesitated and asked him to listen to Angel's little child, of course Pierdius would not be willing, but the order from Haligard represented Haddou's authority, and if he did not listen, it would be tantamount to rebellion.
Pidius was in a state of confusion for a moment, and suddenly he felt a sense of discouragement, and felt that the road ahead was dark.
He let out a long sigh, waved his hand weakly, and said, "Let me think about it." Go down, all of you. By the way, go and bring me the merchant from the inn. ”!!!
