1978 Sky Wolf Army
The war horse passed through the huge city entrance of the city wall twenty meters high and twenty meters long, the echo of the horse's hooves sounded in the ears, as if walking through the body of a giant, a light shone through, at the end of the city road, the huge space was displayed in front of everyone, a huge unbelievable Guangping, wooden two-story barracks and into more than a dozen rows almost without end, the city gate was a whole row of blacksmith shops flickering with firelight, and the smoke coming out, with a hint of pine and moss, as if rising in the black earth, pale fog drifting in the wind
"This is inside the long wall!" Fei Tang was a little distracted, what appeared in front of him was a city at all, in order to temporarily house the more than 200,000 soldiers and families of the Fifth Legion who had withdrawn from the Slavic region, it was like a medium-sized city within the long wall, and later the Fifth Legion moved away, but these facilities were retained, and became the camp of the Longwall garrison and the gathering place of the caravans,
An imperial officer in charge of inspection at the entrance of the city crossing, after looking at the documents in Murphy Obon's hand, respectfully gave him a military salute, "Lord Murphy Obon, the resting place is ready!"
"Thanks"
Murphy Boone nodded solemnly, his eyes looked left and right, his eyes were slightly gloomy, he would come to the Longwall once or twice a month, in addition to exchanging the wilderness specialties with the merchants here for food, and also handing over the newly expanded terrain map to the Longwall side, in return, the Longwall side would provide a relative amount of armor and weapons, otherwise Murphy Oone would not be able to gain a foothold in the wilderness where there were almost not too many supplies, and expand his influence, at that time, the strength of the Longwall was only about forty or fifty thousand people, and now the number of troops appearing in front of him is obviously more than that
"May I ask, what is the cavalry cluster you just met outside the city?" he asked, turning over and getting off his horse, the armor on his body making a clashing sound, thinking of the terrifying cavalry cluster he had just seen outside the long wall
"My lord, it's from Dongting. I don't know the specifics, I heard that one of their strongholds outside the long wall was attacked! There is also an important person who was injured, you know the temperament of the people of the East Garden, and those who moved them will definitely be killed!" The young imperial officer replied with a natural face, completely unaware of the fact that Murphy Boone's face was a little pale and gloomy, "Yes, when I came, I did see that a camp was attacked!" Murphy Boone pretended to be casual and gently played with the horsewhip with his fingers. Eyes swept over the front camp outside the wide flat, saw a continuous white tent like clouds, eyes narrowed, the top of the tent floating star and moon flag and just now outside the long wall looked at the east court cavalry slightly different, just saw the silver-white star and moon three glows, and this one saw the sky blue star and moon three glows, from a distance, the blue flag in the wind like the sea, like a rolling wave fluttering in the wind. "And who are these?" Murphy Boone asked pretending to be calm, as if he had guessed something in his heart "That's the camp of the Xiting people!" the young officer naturally responded, "Is the Xiting also here?" Murphy Boone's body trembled slightly unconsciously, he knew very well that the Empire had signed an agreement to place himself outside the long wall. It's not good, it's not bad, except for a bit of vigilance, it also means that the empire needs an outpost. One day, the empire will definitely use force beyond the long walls! He once wondered if he could take the opportunity to become independent, but now he saw such military power. Secretly glad that he didn't act rashly, "Yes, both courts have participated in the war this time!"
The young officer smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said strangely, "This time the empire marched north, gathering more than 300,000 troops, Princess Rui Tangtingna from the Eastern Court and the two princesses from the Western Court are here, in addition to nearly 100,000 grassland cavalry, there are also troops from local families such as Maumo in the northwest and Dylans in the south" "300,000!
Fei Tang was startled when he heard this number,
Thinking of the combat power and unique customs of the grassland people, Fei Tang asked cautiously
"I don't know why these steppe people are so submissive here, but the steppe people are very famous for their unruliness and moodiness, and the opponent this time may be the steppe people, in case there is nothing but problems in the war, isn't the empire afraid?" "Question? Are you kidding?"
For this question, the young officer looked at this Murphy Obon's entourage with some surprise, and found that the other party's serious look really didn't seem to be joking, and asked in a hideous tone, "What do you mean by this, didn't Lord Murphy Boone tell you, His Majesty Falcon is the emperor of the empire, and at the same time the Khan King of the steppe!"
"The steppe people fight for their own Khan King, but they are regarded as the most honorable thing by the steppe people!" the officer said in a solemn tone, Fei Tang's body trembled slightly, and his face became a little pale in an instant, he didn't expect that the ruler within the long wall turned out to be an imperial emperor wearing the crown of the steppe Khan, could it be that the steppe empire has even occupied this side?
"Your Excellency, don't mind, I'm sure you can see it, he is not familiar with the situation of the Empire" Murphy Oone hurriedly came forward to explain, when the Imperial officer wanted to continue to say something,
"Murphy Obon, don't come unharmed!" The loud voice came, the officer's face turned pale, and he chose to shut up very quickly, Murphy Oone's body trembled slightly, and he turned around to see a group of black-armored cavalry coming from the opposite side, the first one was a fat man with a slightly chubby body,
With black hair and black eyes, a black dark demon king stabbing armor, only a slight squint of eyes flashing with a terrifying cold light, bringing people a cold feeling, seeing Murphy Boone here, the fat man suddenly stopped the war horse and got down from it, and strode towards this side,
The hustle and bustle along the way suddenly stopped, and the people on the side of the road took the initiative to make way for this person, "Majesty!" Murphy Boone hurriedly saluted. Keep your head down
"Okay, that's all for you! I happen to have something to look for you, do you know who attacked the East Courtyard camp outside the long wall, outside the long wall, you know better than me" The fat man waved his hand to him, his mouth nagging, his eyes inadvertently swept over Fei Tang next to him, and his surprised voice stopped
"Your Majesty, this is Fei Tang"
Murphy Boone raised his head, stretched out his hand and hurriedly introduced, "A Central Biya general I inadvertently rescued was once chased and killed by the Dongting people for thousands of miles, and finally stayed with me because the way back to China was cut off by the Dongting people, he is more familiar with the situation beyond the long wall than me, let him say it!"
"Tell me about it, then. Who will attack the camp" The fat man looked at Fei Tang, a string of sweat beads flowed nervously on Fei Tang's forehead, he didn't dare to raise his head, he didn't feel anything just now, but at this moment, he was as stiff as being pressed by a mountain, and took a deep breath,
"My subordinates don't know the situation, but Vala and the camp have five thousand troops, which is definitely a powerful force outside the long wall. However, the subordinates believed that outside the long wall, there was only one force that was attached to the steppe people of the Eastern Garden, the Heavenly Wolf Army, mainly composed of some steppe tribes who migrated from the eastern part of the wilderness, and the leader was called Ugantai, who was originally the leader of a medium-sized tribe, since he occupied the land in the middle of the Slavic region. With the Heavenly Wolf River Land as the center, the support of the people in the East Court is very strong, and it controls a large area east of Murphy City, if it is fully assembled. The number of troops can reach more than 30,000 people,
This force has always been a pawn used by the Dongting people to block this exploration, and just some time ago, the Heavenly Wolf Mansion army sent someone to warn us. The Slavvo field is the land of the Eastern Garden, and if you continue to explore, you will attack us! Vala and the camp are attacked, and it is likely that you will continue to explore further."
The fat man's eyes were bright when he listened. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, the Slavic region of the fertile wilderness is a piece of fat, and he can let Murphyo Boone serve as the front station, and the Dongting people will also arrange one or two spokespersons, and in this wilderness, the more threatening Dongting people obviously have more right to speak.
It's time to change the whole situation, the empire must let all the wilderness forces know who is the master of this land, "Come on, pass the news to Rui Tang Tingna, doesn't she want to take revenge?
The smoke billows out of the wilderness, the red flames lick through the felt roof of the tent like a greedy cat, the burning tent supports crackle and explode in the flames, the sparks are scattered by the wind, and in the camp, thousands of naked corpses lie on the ground in the mud and blood,
The rescue forces of the East Court arrived in Vala and the camp in the afternoon of the second day
The remnant sun is like blood, the dilapidated camp is only a ruin, the searching Dongting cavalry galloped cautiously from the camp, and the red human blood on the ground was splashed under the horse's hooves, which was so thick and terrifying, splashed on the ground,
The faces of every Dongting cavalry were very angry, surrounded by scattered remnants, broken scimitars, the corpses of war horses lying in a group, the cattle and sheep in the camp were artificially driven away, and even the chain mail on the soldiers who died in battle was pulled out, and the flesh of Baihuahua was mixed in the soil, which was a naked insult to those Dongting warriors who had fought to the death, "Your Royal Highness Princess, no living person has been found! This is the weapon of the enemy we have found, and the scimitar of our steppe people!" The Eastern Courtyard General, Wu Mu, held the half-broken scimitar with a pale face, and reported to Rui Tingtingna, who was parked next to the ruins in the center of the camp, "This is not our scimitar!"
Rui Tang Tingna's eyes paused on the broken knife, and said affirmatively, the position where the edge of the knife is sharp like moonlight and the handle below is connected, and a steel seal can be clearly seen, which seems to be a kind of square text, that is not a sign that belongs to the east and west courts, the scimitar is the life of the steppe people, and all the scimitars have the mark of the forging craftsman at the bottom
Tang Tingna ordered someone to find the Slavic guide who accompanied the team, and after seeing it, the Slavic guide who accompanied the team said with certainty: "Although I don't know it, there is no doubt that this is the Central Biya style!"
"Her Royal Highness Princess, it seems that it should be the Heavenly Wolf Mansion Army mentioned by His Majesty!" Wu Mu's face was gloomy and revealing a hideousness, and he gritted his teeth and said, "The base camp of the Heavenly Wolf Mansion Army is in the Heavenly Wolf River, let's kill him, kill him without leaving a piece of armor, and avenge the dead clansmen in Vala and the camp!"
In the early morning, the sky was overcast, and the wind blew through the grass, rolling the broken grass into the sky,
Five huge queues of 10,000 cavalry slowly appeared from the distant horizon, and the well-equipped Dongting cavalry clusters advanced neatly, neatly lined up, and the quiet sound of the grassland wind could be heard,
All the Eastern Court cavalry looked in only one direction, and a huge camp began to appear in front of them, a simple camp built with wooden fences, surrounding the entire huge riverland, and a group of nearby Eastern Court cavalry was clearly found on the opposite side. The bell representing the alarm is ringing violently
"Advance the whole army!"
Wu Mu raised the scimitar in his hand, he rode on a tall and thick black war horse, his eyes were instantly covered with blood-colored red silk, his hands full of green tendons tightly grasped the reins of the war horse, his fingertips were deeply immersed in the flesh, "woo" A burst of agitated Kugit trombone sounded behind him, and dozens of slightly spaced smaller thousand cavalry began to accelerate, of which in the center was the most elite main force, 30,000 elite melee cavalry, and 20,000 archers on both wings were like two wings protecting the center. Start moving at high speed. It was like a dark cloud covering the earth
Battle flags began to rise on the opposite river, and a blue-red wolf's head flag fluttered in the wind
"Prepare to shoot!" As the two wings of the archers distanced themselves from the center of the formation, like huge wings that suddenly spread forward, countless compound bows began to rise at a 30-degree angle into the air, and the cavalry on the opposite side reacted a little slower, or they didn't expect the archers on the opposite side to be so bold,
Lightweight leather armor, wearing a furry felt hat on his head, and holding a powerful compound bow unique to the Dongting people in his hand. When the distance of "Bumper" was about 100 meters, the compound bows in the hands of the Dongting cavalry bounced off one after another, and countless clusters of arrows with cold light had already shot into the air from the bowstring with the sound of the wind.
Clusters of shining arrows flew from the left and right flanks like swarms of locusts from the horizon hills, and slammed into the defenses of the opposite camp. "Papa" arrows are nailed into the wooden rows, like a gust of rain hitting the banana leaves, full of holes.
"Bastard, it's an elite cavalry!"
A middle-aged man wearing a wolf helmet stood on a sentry tower and was dumbfounded, he was the leader of the Heavenly Wolf Mansion Army, Wugantai, because he was in a hurry to fight, he hadn't figured out what the identity of the enemy was, but the enemy's elite Cheng dรน made him feel tricky suddenly, and the number was even more uncountable, and the three-star moonlight battle flag fluttering in the air made his pupils unnaturally constrict
"Trouble!" His body was smart, his eyes were full of bloodshot and remorse, it turned out to be the clansmen of Vala and the camp, his intestines were all remorseful, he knew that there was such a huge cavalry cluster behind Vala and the camp, he would never dare to do it without permission,
It was indeed him who attacked Vala and the camp, he learned from some news that the strength of the Long Wall was actually only forty or fifty thousand people, which couldn't help but make him a little covetous, he knew that the people of Dongting had long seen the Long Wall unpleasantly, but for some reason they had been holding back without fighting, and supporting themselves was to deal with the continuous invasion of the Long Wall, as the overlord of the middle section of the Slavic wilderness, the number of troops under his command had reached 30,000 people, and he did not dare to say that it was the elite that could compete with the warriors of the Eastern Garden, and it was also the strongest military cluster in this area,
But the extreme lack of supplies and weapons is the biggest bottleneck, and from the eyeliner sent to the longwall, just a few days ago, Vala and the camp, who have always been regarded as a thorn in their side, received a large number of supplies, and the strength is less than 5,000 people, if you can swallow the materials of Vala and the camp in one bite, it should be enough to survive this winter!
With such thoughts, he personally led 20,000 people, with four times the force, with the previous eyeline raid on Vala and the camp, Vala and the camp were really unprepared, and he was successful in the sneak attack, and he was happy to get so many supplies, but he didn't expect the other party's revenge to hit like a storm,
Tens of thousands of iron horsemen descended from the sky like divine soldiers, dozens of swift black lines wrapped in the raised soil, and rushed towards this side with great momentum, so frightened that he anxiously shouted, "Pass the order, desperately resist it, and immediately send someone to ask Lord Zamu Hebi for help!"
He didn't think that just relying on the rudimentary river defense line, he could block the elite clusters armed to the teeth in front of him, the array that the other party posed was simply to swallow the Heavenly Wolf River in one bite, and then kill everyone, the lightly armed cavalry advancing on both sides of the opposite side had already pulled out the javelin with a fine iron spear head from the crotch of his war horse, and threw it hard at a distance of 80 meters from the wooden fence, turning into a waterfall of dead metal light in the air, countless javelins pierced through the defense line of the river, and the body of the archer behind the wooden fence was instantly pierced, and the javelin shot the second person behind him with blood; Someone was even shot and rolled to the ground and then nailed to the ground by the falling javelin, the javelin man fell from the watchtower, blood bloomed in the air, and there was a scream and dodge behind the fence, but he crashed to the ground with his panicked companions, "Kill!"
The melee cavalry advancing in the middle finally began to accelerate. Holding up the scimitar in his hand and shouting loudly, under the cover of the cavalry on both sides holding javelins, he hit the outer wooden fence like a wave, "pop" a violent collision of short distances, the wooden fence was knocked over, like a wave pushing the tumbling, suddenly dispersed, and then collided together, slashing at each other with all the weapons that could be used on the wooden fence, the two sides were so close that in the eyes of the people behind the fence, the other horse's cavalry seemed to be jumping down from the wooden fence on the back of their horses!
The ensuing rumble was enough to drown out all the sounds, the earth trembled violently under his feet, and in the direction of the camp gate, at the moment when Ugandai was stunned, he saw the neat black-armored heavy cavalry line as heavy as a majestic mountain but rapidly pressing from the front!
"Heavy cavalry!" Ugantai's face immediately turned pale, as if he had seen a ghost,
As soon as the shouting of panic in the direction of the camp gate was shouted, it stopped abruptly, only to see the neat and straight Dongting heavy cavalry spear mercilessly stabbed into the body of the Wolf Mansion Army soldiers from the front, and the powerful impact force directly made the Wolf Mansion Army cavalry be picked up from the war horse.
"Forward, crush them, and avenge the people of the camp!"
The black array that struck like a steel stabbing wall suddenly erupted with a deafening roar, snapping "The broken weapon flew into the sky, and the heavy armor of the heavy cavalry completely made the scimitar of the Wolf Mansion Army cavalry unable to start, and the earth trembled violently under the feet, but the lightly armed Wolf Mansion Army cavalry didn't even have time to shout the first exclamation, and was swept away by the huge impact force, and then fell under the iron hooves of the back row, (to be continued......)
