Obaro Continent, Southwestern Border, Ruilin Fortress Outpost

"Captain, is Gangfei really coming? It's been three days, and I haven't even seen a ghost!" the young sentry Mokad curiously stood on the watchtower at the top of the hill, looking out over the plain below

The arrival of late autumn has given the mountains withered yellow. The defensive walls of the fortress are solid granite, the soil that had only rained heavily last night, under the sunlight, evaporated bursts of faint white smoke, looking at it from a distance, it seems that the earth is smoking, and the light smoke drifts up with the breeze, making the surrounding qi qi qi unreal

"I don't know, the order from above, no matter what, you have to cheer up first!"

Next to Mocard, a middle-aged veteran in his thirties stretched his limbs, lifted an infantry crossbow from his feet, aimed at a chirping sparrow in the sky, put down the crossbow, found that Mokad was a little nervous, and said with a smile, "Don't be so nervous, we are just a fortress outpost, if the people really come, their target is the fortress, not our broken watchtower built on the top of the mountain!"

"I know, but I'm still a little nervous!" Mochad said, with an embarrassed look on his face

"Nervous? Do you need it? I can say with great peace of mind that if you don't come, you will definitely be beaten badly!" The veteran Lincoln Tower pursed his lips with disdain, raised his hand and pointed to the Ruilin Fortress on the mountainside, and said, "Now is not the time for your Southwest Army to defend this place, this time it is directly taken over by the Imperial Central Army, it is said that there are hundreds of Thor withdrawn from Rasti, and this time the Thor is installed on the head of the Ruilin Fortress, what else are you afraid of?"

"Thor! really!" Recruit Mokad looked excited, he was a soldier of the Southwest Army, after the reorganization of the more than 100,000 Southwest Army, only 30,000 were left, and the rest of the soldiers were either disbanded and returned home, or incorporated into the local army to maintain daily law and order. After all, the development of the southwest suffered a heavy blow in the war, and the hundreds of thousands of prime-aged people can have an immediate effect on stabilizing the hearts of the people in the southwest and for the economic and agricultural development of the southwest.

During the Battle of the Southwest, Mokad had seen the devastating power of the Falcon Thor, no matter how strong his flesh and blood. Under the power of shaking a qiē, it is irresistible. Those dense charging troops, under the fierce artillery fire of the other side, were simply group suicidal acts. Every fireball falls. All of them mean the end of several lives, or even the absence of bones. The elite infantry, of which the commanders were proud, were also wiped out

The current location of Mocard and Lincoln Tower is the highest point of the cliff wall on the left flank of Reef Fort, and even without a lookout scope, you can see the distant land in front of the fortress.

In front of the fortress, there is a winding road that leads to the unknown distance, this road. The throat of the northeast, which is the most important part of the southwest border, has also left countless corpses and blood behind.

After receiving the report of the successful attack on the island by the Admiralty Minister Dustrenkicz, the fat man knew that his war with the Gang Inhuman had broken out

Gangfei has always been eyeing the southwest, the battle of the southwest. The Imperial Navy has inflicted heavy losses on the Gang Africa's navy, and now it has directly occupied the pivot island of Kaxili, blocking the road for the Gang Africans to enter the southwest from land and sea. Now the only way is by land, with the transfer of the two Imperial Central Army into the Fortress of Ruilin, and the two Thunder God squadrons directly under the Central Army entering the fortress, these are the troops that have just been withdrawn from the Rusti region, and the combat experience and combat morale are at the peak "How is the reaction of the Gangfei side?"

In the Fortress of Ruilin, the fat man raised his head and stared at the huge military map hanging on the wall, and asked the governor of the southwest, Salon, next to him, "Three days ago, there was an unusual movement of the garrison on the border side of the Congo and Africa! The border guards, which originally had only 30,000 men, increased to 70,000, and then became 110,000 yesterday, and frequently sent scouts to our border defense line."

"What are the main positions of the border line?" the fat man frowned slightly

"From the first line of Armai in front of the Fortress of Ruilin to Barone, the length is 50 miles!" Salon replied with a respectful expression, "The garrisons in these two areas are the previous Southwest Army, and the strength is not much, only less than 20,000 troops, but as the first line of the Gauls against Gangfei in the past, it has a very strong barrier group, and the last time the Gangfei broke through to the southwest, it was from here that they entered, and all the barriers were destroyed when the Gangfei people withdrew, and it is not advantageous for our army!"

"Since you don't have an advantage, then withdraw!"

The fat man gave the order with certainty, and said, "We can't enter the two-front battle in advance, and on the Gallic Kyoto side, Hukochili should be able to grasp the rhythm of negotiations with the Gauls, which will make the Gauls not notice our sudden war with the Gangfei people for the time being," As long as the time of the battle is short enough, we can quickly solve the problems of the southwest before the Gauls react, and the necessary retreat can allow the Gangfei people to follow, and we need to be able to win the decisive victory, which is enough to make the Gangfei people frightened, and finally give up the peep into the southwest region!" "Majesty Xià means to let the Gangfei people enter the border first, and then defend and counterattack!" Salon showed a look on his face, "It's not to release, it's to lure!" The fat man raised his hand and nodded on the map on the wall. Order the troops in the area in front of the Fortress of Diamond to withdraw one by one, give up the line from Ama-Barone little by little, and give the Gang Fei people a little sweetness first, so that they will unconsciously come to the direction of the Fortress of Rigin! Bring in all the border guards of the Gang Fei people, we will wait for them here, we will defeat their border guards here, and then directly enter the territory of Gang Fei, so that the Gang Fei people will feel afraid, they can't beat us, but we can hurt them hard!" "I see, my subordinates understand!"

Salon smiled and nodded, as the governor of the southwest, he also hoped to solve the hidden danger of the Gangfei people in advance, after all, the main role of the southwest is to serve as an important logistics base for entering the hinterland of the Gallic Empire, the goal of the empire is still Gaul, and it is not wise to start a full-scale war with Gangfei, if you can't directly hit the Gangfeiren, the two-front battle will make the Falcon Empire fall into an extremely unfavorable accuracy

And just like that, the border garrison, having received the order, began to withdraw in an orderly manner,

A group of Gangfei scouts wearing silver chain mail and carrying serpentine swords at their waists looked at the empty land in front of them. These lands were once a buffer zone on the southwestern border, and they were also the battlefields where the scout cavalry of the two sides clashed many times, and the blood of many colleagues stained the dust here

"It seems that he took the initiative to retreat!" "After observing carefully for a while, the captain of the scout cavalry said unnaturally at the corner of his mouth, "Could it be that something happened in the southwest?" "Captain, what should we do?" The scout cavalry next to him asked, "Report to the corps headquarters, anyway, this matter is a little strange!"

The scout captain waved his hand, his expression a little blank, and they reported the situation. The reply was to immediately occupy the evacuated area, and after occupying one end of the border in succession, the Fifth Army of the Gang and Africa, which was in charge of border defense, began to enter the second line of defense of the border, and the Raidin fortress in front of the Gang Fei people was placed in front of the Gang Fei people at once

Lamia, the commander of the Fifth Army Corps of Gangfei, was an experienced commander who had planned strategic advances to the southwest many times, and was very familiar with this fortress at the chokepoint, and he stood in the distance and looked at this fortress, his eyes full of complicated feelings. At the beginning, when the Gangfei army withdrew from the southwest because of the fighting forces, he had destroyed the Ruilin Fortress that was guarding the road, but he didn't expect the Falcon Army to take over the southwest. Immediately a new fortress was built from scratch,

The new fortress in front of me, although much smaller than the previous large fortress, resembles a pentagonal edge. Let all the city surfaces be under the flanking attack, which is obviously more suitable for the defenders to play, and the defense power does not decrease but increases.

Although the original Ruilin Fortress was dangerous, it had not completely blocked the road to the southwest, but now, this new fortress has given up its huge size, but it is stuck right in the middle, and on both sides of the fortress, there are gently undulating mountains, slowly stretching to the north and south. But this gentle stretch, only less than two thousand meters away, suddenly becomes steep, and the composition of the mountain is no longer dirt, but granite with moss, these granite are very hard, the new fortress is obviously built with the stone here, the two wings of the fortress have been closely linked with these granite mountains, like a giant with open arms, cutting off the road to the southwest of Gangnon, if you want to enter the southwest from here, you must destroy the fortress," Order all armies to assemble!" Ramia estimated the defensive strength of the fortress, and felt that although it had been strengthened, it was only a small fortress after all, and under the strong pressure of the army, it was as fragile as a piece of paper, "Is Lord Ramia going to attack?" Ramia smiled noncommittally, the news of the defeat of the navy had already spread throughout the military circles of Gangfei, the emperor of Gangfei was furious for the fall of Kaxili Island, and denounced the navy for its ineffective operation, but the main force of the navy had been transferred to the south to participate in the joint operations of the allies, and it was difficult to turn around in wartime, the emperor Gangfei could only put his hope on the army, and the Gangfei Fifth Army Corps, which was in charge of border defense, had just received an order to find fighters and take retaliatory actions against the southwest region, and if the southwest gate could be opened again, His Majesty the Emperor would launch the third personal expedition to the southwest region

End of August

The Congolese army that had entered the border began to gather in front of the Fortress of Ruilin

The lights are like stars, the hazy moon has risen in the sky, on the wilderness of the wilderness, countless tents and small sheds built of branches have been erected, as if a forest suddenly appeared on the flat ground, in the open space between one camp after another, the mist like cotton wool was blown by the wind, and every qiē became hazy, except for the 70,000 people of the Fifth Army of Gangfei, in mid-August, I felt that it was possible to enter the southwest again, and the Emperor of Gangfei added 50,000 people of the Third Army of Gangfei, and a total of 120,000 Gangfei troops were spread out in front of the Ruilin Fortress

The fat man raised the lookout goggles in his hand and looked through the lenses at the lineup of the Gangnon army

At the beginning of the Battle of the Southwest, the Northwest Navy was responsible for the counterattack at sea, and the land confrontation was the first time.

The fat man needs to get a more correct assessment, and the scope he uses is the third generation of the Imperial Navy.

It was more sophisticated and distant than the one used before, and the object three thousand meters away seemed to be in front of you, and even every movement of the dog's tail grass swaying there in the breeze could be seen clearly.

The Gangfei army in the distance is at a distance of 500 meters, overwhelmingly assembling the array, and the first thing that appears in the sight of the lookout is the black military flag of the Gangfei people waving in the wind, which is particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.

Follow the flag at high speed. It was a group of cavalrymen who galloped out of the sky, wearing light silver armor, with brocade feathers on the top of their helmets, and the weapons hanging behind them were not cavalry spears, but nail hammers for breaking heavy armor.

The cavalrymen each held a black military flag in their hands, which suddenly appeared on the ground, the flying hooves of horses, silver armor, and the military flag fluttering in the wind. The wind entered the open space in front of the fortress.

It was a stretching land, empty, except for countless dog-tailed grasses stretching their bodies in the wind. The dense hooves of the horses of the non-cavalry trampled over the dog's tail grass, sinking them all into the muddy ground.

The cavalry stopped in front of the fortress, showing off their strength in a straight line, hundreds of inhuman military flags fluttering in the wind, it is a rigid and inhuman tradition to erect military flags before the siege, "idiot!" The fat man snorted disapprovingly at this bad habit that was obviously still preserved in the knightly era, and put down the lookout goggles in his hand. He said coldly behind him, "Icasa, kill those flag bearers for me" "Obey, my majesty!"

Ikaza the leader of the Longbow Banner Regiment grinned at the corners of his mouth and showed a cruel smile.

200 meters away, the Gang Fei light cavalry holding the military flag was raised, chatting and laughing with each other easily, and suddenly from the diagonal rear came several sounds of breaking the air. The well-trained light cavalry could naturally hear the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air. And then before they could react. Then I heard a few more muffled grunts. Immediately after that, the sound of "clucking ......" was the sound of a few unlucky ghosts being shot through the throat of a dozen military flags as the corpses tumbled down from the war horses.

I watched my former companion clutching the shaft of the arrow inserted into his throat and wailed in pain. Several flag-bearers were dumbfounded. They couldn't make out the sharp arrows that had been fired there, and then there were several more shots of arrows breaking through the air.

This time, the flag-bearers were prepared, and quickly squatted on their horses, and then heard three "ding, ding, ding", and several people fell down in pain after the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the armor, but it was the arrow feathers that directly shot through the armor of the cavalry, this time, it was still the throat.

"Damn... The hussars roared in panic, and there was an uproar, and they retreated with a loud and angry curse

"It seems that the other party is not easy to deal with. In the distance, Lan Miya, who was forming a large army, looked at this qiē solemnly, with 73,000 troops under his command, one hundred and ten infantry squadrons had been organized according to the scale of a thousand people, and the rout of the standard-bearer made him dare to spare his head a little, no one thought that the opponent's shooter would have such a long distance, and now it was difficult to ride a tiger, the army was ready to attack, and he vomited directly, and at this moment, there was a sharp sound in the air that crossed the sky,

"Boom"

A thunder god landed in the large number of assembled Gangfei infantry, and exploded a thick puff of black smoke, in the vicinity of the black smoke, objects flew up, some flew high into the sky, and then fell in an irregular curve under the gaze of everyone, there were the remains of the corpse that were blown up, and the whole war horse that was blown up, as well as the broken spear, and countless dust and sand.

In particular, the snake sword, the symbol of the Gang Inhuman Force, was like a leaf flying in the air of an explosion, fluttering lightly, making various turns in mid-air, but finally slammed its tip down into the damp, soft but blood-stained dirt.

"What is this?" Ramia was completely stupid, the array torrent of the non-army was cut off in an instant, and he didn't have time to react.

Suddenly Ranmia felt as if the sky was torn apart, as if countless sharp objects had cut through the dull sky. It was a sound with the breath of death, like the howl of death, and like the howl of a ghost released from hell.

Thundered

A whole row of white smoke came out of the walls of the Ruilin Fortress, and the whistling white light smashed fiercely at the dense formation of Gangfeiren, and the continuous explosions covered the ground in front of the fortress, turning it into a place filled with gunsmoke. In the smoke of gunpowder, the fire caused by the explosion seemed to be more dazzling than the sun just now, and every red-light explosion seemed to cause the earth to shake, and the continuous explosion seemed to be the earth trembling.

In the smoke of gunpowder, Thor fell like raindrops in the queue of Gangnon. turned that area into a sea of death intertwined with blood and fire,

The soldiers were dizzy and ran in all directions, but there were too many people, and the queue of hundreds of thousands of troops was all chaotic and crowded together

Suddenly and exploded, came so fiercely,

Directly and simply, countless lives will be harvested, and the scorching waves will be washed down like non-infantry throwing flies in rows.

There are a lot of non-soldiers who have been shattered before they even understand what is happening.

The dense explosion formed a visible wall of fire, cutting the distance of 500 to 700 meters, and almost instantly, the land was filled with corpses of all kinds, and the fierce artillery fire tore apart the cavalry and the horses, and the horses were frightened and scurried, rampage through the crowd of panicked running, trying to cross the blockade of death. The chaos caused is no less than the explosion (to be continued......
