Chapter 5: Prelude to the Decisive Battle
The Imperial Palace of the Miro Empire, in the dormitory of Princess Arya.
Princess Arya sat on the bed, and the handsome and toned Knight Cornell half-knelt in front of her, raised her head and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess Qiqi, this is a report sent back by Marshal Lupsas recently, Prince Dick did not hesitate to make a deal with the devil in order to win the war!"
Princess Arya looked at the man she liked half-kneeling on the ground, her heart was quite uncomfortable, in recent days she had tried her best to close the relationship between the two, but Cornier still looked at each other, and was meticulous in her courtesy, which really distressed her. However, the words that came out of Knight Cornier's mouth immediately attracted her attention and stunned her.
Arya said incredulously......, "What?
"Yes!" said Knight Corneil, "Prince Dick is the regent of Miro, and for the victory of a war, he actually reached an agreement with the filthy and despicable demon clan in the abyss, and at this moment there are no less than 300,000 demon clans in Miro's military camp!
"Your Highness, it has not been a day or two since Prince Dick did whatever he wanted, and the ministers of the court and the central government dared not speak out. Let's just say that this time, Marshal Lupsas persuaded him with kind words for this matter, but instead of listening, he was arrogant, and moved out as the Prince Regent and the leader of the rebel army to suppress Marshal Lupsas. "Cornier is loyal, but prejudice against one person is enough to distort everything.
"However, Mitte Bixia relies on him very much, no, it is simply obedient to him, and in the long run, my Miro Empire will be his Dick's! For the sake of my Miro Sheji,Please persuade Bixia no matter what.ใ โ
Arya didn't know what to say anymore: "But ...... But...... Dick Ta ...... He's not that kind of person. โ
"Your Highness!" said Gonier, urgently. "I confess that Prince Dick is a great man of a generation. He has made countless contributions, but after all, he is only a young man who is less than twenty years old, and young people will inevitably make mistakes, how can he afford to take on such a heavy responsibility as Prince Regent?"
Princess Arya's voice was as thin as a mosquito's chirping: "Are you ...... Is there any prejudice against him?"
Cornier said earnestly: "Your Highness, Dick, who is powerful, ignores his ministers, is proud of his achievements, has no one in his eyes, and now he is colluding with demons, is such a person really qualified to be the Prince Regent?"
Arya shook her head. "You let me think about it......"
"Your Highness, now you are the only one who can persuade Mitte Bixia, please think twice!"
Dick led the rebel army of the Miro Empire and the demon army to march side by side, all the way to the west, attacking cities and plundering villages along the way, invincible. At the beginning, the Terran soldiers were still very uncomfortable with eating and living with the demon legions, and the officers who came to complain about the tent were about to squeeze through the camp gate.
However, Dick gave a death order: "I, Mirรณ, am now in a state of decay, and it is not appropriate to send too many troops." The Demon Clan's generosity to help, we should welcome it, and if anyone comments on this, they will all be dealt with by military law!"
As for which article of the military law is the punishment for this. Dick couldn't tell, of course, but the others didn't dare to ask.
So gradually, the Terran soldiers gradually went from discomfort to habit. Then from habit to nature.
And having the demon clan with the army is not necessarily a bad thing. The low-level demons are fierce and resolute. is the most haode cannon fodder regiment. In the fierce siege battle, the losses of the Terran soldiers were greatly reduced.
The high-level demons are powerful and powerful. Although only the third demon king, the troll Herrerad, has been exposed so far, but it is shocking enough, the city wall is more than ten meters high, and Herreard, who is more than twenty meters tall, can cut a huge crack with one sword, and the four lava giant swords dance together, it is simply a siege machine, and it is vulnerable in front of him in the solid city wall.
Moreover, this siege machine cannot be destroyed by the tactics of crowds, once the enemy soldiers surround him, it will immediately be a terrorist attack similar to "war trampling", and in an instant, flesh and blood will fly everywhere, and corpses will be floating all over the field.
With an absolute superiority in troops, a demon army that is not afraid of death, and a city-breaking machine Herrerad, Dick's rebel army is invincible, and several other royal brothers of Macfarlane have just been driven to the east of the empire by the Faun army of the eldest prince Daniel, and now they have been defeated by Miro's rebel army.
Several Macfarlane's royal brothers have already raised the white flag and surrendered in line with the principle of being a good man and not suffering immediate losses, and Macfarlane has also accepted their surrender, and treated them well, and persuaded them with good words: "Ladies and gentlemen, please rest assured, I, McFarlane, am not an unrighteous person, and he will restore the empire in the future, and he will also give you a few titles." โ
The effect of this was also obvious, so the cities on the way of the rebel army were exempted from even symbolic resistance, and the princes who knew that they could not be defeated horizontally and vertically chose to surrender one after another. This saved a lot of troops for the rebels.
Encountering no decent resistance along the way, the rebel army of the Miro Empire and the demon legion totaled more than 700,000 troops in more than two months to conquer the city, regain the town and uproot, and recover a large territory east of the city of Xiufaster.
General Shakel of the Faun Empire is also preparing for the upcoming war, in which the Faun Empire has invested a total of 637,000 troops, and now in addition to maintaining the basic security forces in the western cities of the Hughes Empire, all the forces have been reduced and gathered in the city of Huvvest, which is high and thick.
On the same day, the Faun soldiers stationed in the city of Shofan saw the banners fluttering in the wind, and the army formation was boundless.
There is no end in sight to the elite army, and the mighty is pouring from outside the horizon. It was already dusk, and the soldiers of the rebel army had set up camp across the Sandra River, waiting for the general attack to be launched tomorrow, and the white expanse of the camp tent stretched all the way to the other side of the sky.
McFarran raised his whip and pointed to the city of Huvist in the distance, "You see, that is Huphaster! โ
The black walls of the city of Huvist were gilded with a layer of golden-red crimson in the sunlight, like a black beast in golden armor crawling on the vast plain, and this giant beast did not know how many lives it would devour tomorrow.
The Sandra River meanders like a meandering jade belt around the city of Huphaster. In the setting sun, flickering with flickers of broken gold. A drawbridge connected the river bank to the city gates, but it was now hoisted high.
Dick and Landas stood beside Macfarlane, heard his words, and looked silently at the city in the distance.
"What a beautiful city!" Landas said with a smile.
"What a strong city!" Dick frowned, "and I don't know if Herrerad's four lava greatswords will be able to smash it to pieces." โ
He suddenly added, "McFarland, would you mind if the city you grew up in was destroyed by the troll's lava greatsword?"
"Of course I do," said Macfarlane without hesitation, "but it's nothing compared to the lives of the soldiers, tell Herreard that tomorrow he will have to cut down the walls of Huvendrest." โ
The angry horse galloped, the horse's hooves rattled, and a herald rushed to the front, rolled his saddle and dismounted, and said, "Three lords, the camp tent has been set up." โ
"Well done," Dick said with a smile as he turned around, "you can go down and rest well, there will be a hard fight waiting for us tomorrow." โ
"Yes, as you order!" the herald rode away. Dick and the other three watched for a while, and then returned to the camp to recharge for tomorrow's battle.
Lupsas was also looking at the city of Huphaster at sunset, and he remembered that the last time he came here was when Edward VII was personally driving the empire of Huce, and he and others designed to defeat the main army of Huces, but encountered the crusaders under the city of Hufaester. Killed by the legion of fanatics who are not afraid of death.
Lupsas still remembers the declaration of "drinking the Masandra River, garrisoning Huphaster" before the war, how the main army of Hughes was defeated by the earth wall and fire attack, and the 200,000 crusader soldiers who fought and fought without fear of death.
Lupsas sighed, he was really old, and he always loved to remember the past. He slowly turned his horse's head and went back to the camp.
The sun was setting in the west, and the deep night had fallen, and after the black night had passed, I wondered how much blood would be there. (To be continued......)
