"Curtis, you immediately report this to Master Nilai"

The old duke of Russia and Germany, who felt a great crisis from the battle situation in front of him, suddenly turned his head with a sad expression, and shouted to a Mamunuk knight behind him, "Envit violated the previous arrangement, and privately transferred away from the direct knight to avoid the enemy, and the intention of evacuating from the battle was undoubtedly revealed, and the collapse of the left flank was imminent, I was ready to order the middle line to shrink and defend to death, but I don't know how long I could hold out, and I asked her to choose an opportunity to quickly withdraw from the battlefield!"

"My lord, isn't it too early to make such an inference" Glancing at the left flank of the coalition that had almost been penetrated, the Mamunuk knight he called Curtis, said with some hesitation on his face, "Although the Envit army is wolf, it is still some distance from a complete collapse, as long as there are enough reserves, the left flank can still hold on......" "Enough, do you think Envit really has no troops to send and can lead the bad situation?" The old duke of Ode stopped him loudly, and his face, which was covered with the vicissitudes of time, showed a trace of sad anger, raised his horsewhip and pointed to an area of the left flank, and said

"Just look at it, there is a squadron of two thousand Mamunuk knights directly under Envit, who is fighting on the front line? No!, they are resting and gathering, but they are not sent to plug the gap, you haven't seen it yet? Envit, this guy is clearly betraying everyone, his people are hiding behind, and the blood that was killed in front is all people who have opinions about him."

"What do you mean...... All of us have been calculated?" Curtis was still a little unsure, and his face suddenly lost its color as he watched the left wing of the soldiers fall like a wheat heap,

The fight was too chaotic just now, and he didn't notice it yet, but now after the Duke of Russia and Germany's guidance, the situation immediately became clear.

The situation on the left is indeed extremely bad. As the old duke of Russia and Germany said, the people of the Envit faction basically did not rely on the front line of the tragedy, and most of the people who were sent to plug the gap were those northern lords who did not listen to Envit much in the past.

Under the onslaught of the Normans like a rolling dragon, the northern lords were no better than they had been in Salander, and the ranks were completely disrupted, the flesh and blood of the soldiers were scattered with the flails of the Norman hoplites, and the corpses were piled up on the road. Dragged out a bloody path of minced flesh,

In less than an hour of fighting, two lords had already been killed, one lord was seriously wounded and carried down, the left flank was half disabled, a large number of wounded soldiers were constantly carried down, limbs were broken, and the chest was smashed and dented by the flail of the Normandy heavy infantry, and it was obviously difficult to survive. The screams of the wounded soldiers in pain made the entire bloody and flesh-and-blood battle line shrouded in misery and hesitation.

"Resist. Resist!" even though the Overseer sent out a team of swords against the back of the soldiers, the coalition soldiers were still beaten and retreated, powerless to parry. And the two thousand Mamunuk knights of Envit, who were the most elite in battle, watched coldly from not far away

"See," said the old duchess of Ode, with a grim smile on the corner of his mouth, "from the beginning." This guy proposed a plan to form a coalition to attack Normandy, and it should be with such a plan.

"It's just that everyone was too anxious at that time, and was blinded by the so-called strength in Envit's mouth, and no one would think of it! Everyone thought that after half a year of training and improving equipment, the Normans were already vulnerable, but no one thought that the equipment could be changed, but we actually had no improvement in terms of combat power, and we were not the Falcon Army! The Normans were not afraid of us, but the elite Falcon Army! This guy just grasped the blind confidence in the strength that we Salanders have always had!" However, what good is it for him to do this?" Curtis's eyes flashed with a hint of anger, his fists clenched, and he asked through gritted teeth, "Isn't he afraid of being punished by the Empire?" "Everyone is dead, even the wise Falcon Majesty will not know what the situation is now!" "The dead man will not come out to testify against him, he can swagger and return to the country with countless treasures, and be regarded as the great hero of the revenge of the Salander people, in the absence of opponents, he is the master of the northern part of Salander" "Very despicable, but effective!" The old duke of Russia and Germany looked up at the sky, the corners of his mouth pursed with disdain, and said, "Power, wealth, and glory! If he is now in the country, even if he is given a hundred dares, he will not dare to have too obvious dissatisfaction, but now in a foreign land, if he only gives up a war that is not important to him, he can use the hands of the Normans to wipe out all the opponents in the alliance, according to the character of that fellow, it is absolutely possible!" "That ...... What should we do?"

Curtis's eyes were blood-red, and his heart was already shocked by this terrible conspiracy, and now he understood why Enwitt had been dismissive of the orders of the coalition forces since the landing, because he knew that these people were dead people, and he didn't need to listen to a group of dead people!

The old duke of Ode swept his gaze over the left wing, his face was solemn and silent for a while, as if he had made up some kind of determination, but there was a rare calm on his face at this moment, and his right hand patted Curtis's shoulder heavily

"Tens of thousands of compatriots are fighting in blood, we don't have time to sigh here" "Judging from the current situation, the left wing will soon be finished, then we will be betrayed, and finally the right wing of Nilai's master!, if there is only one person between me and Nilai to go back, then I will choose Nilai!" "Why!" Curtis said with a sad expression, "Since your lord is aware of Envit's conspiracy, you should live and personally expose this guy's ugly face to His Majesty the Falcon!"

"What to announce? Do you have any evidence? No, say anything!" The old duke of Ode smiled slightly, looked at the sky that had become bright in the distance, and said slowly, "Since I set foot on this land, I have no intention of returning alive," the northern part of Salander can be without me, but it must not be without Nilai! Don't forget, His Majesty Falcon's favor for Nilai's master may completely turn into ruined anger! Envit, that guy is playing with fire!" He didn't know at all that the reputation of the Vecchia Falcon in the interior, but with the title of the tyrant of blood and rain, blood for blood, tooth for tooth, the reputation of the Falcon Army was more of a tyranny that made the enemy tremble.

"For the sake of a woman, the Falcon of Vecchia, who did not hesitate to go to war against the whole of Ryrdian, for the sake of the beloved Nilai, to order a bloody sweep of the northern part of Salander, it is entirely possible, don't forget the Black Forest, that is the example, do you want that kind of tragedy to appear again in the beautiful land of Salander?"

"This ......" Curtis's whole body shook slightly, and the scene of the tragic shattering of mountains and rivers a few years ago flashed through his mind again. It was Salander's worst nightmare, the blood-stained land, the mass of displaced people with nowhere to go

"Go, ride on my black cloud, Nellai knows you can trust it when she sees it" Odd waved his hand to the guard behind him with a calm expression, took the reins of his favorite warhorse, and handed it to Curtis

"It has been with me since the beginning of the war with the Normans, and it has saved me several times. This is not its homeland, and I can hear the deep nostalgia for its homeland from its low breath every time, so take it back. My soul will turn into the stars of heaven and protect Salander forever!"

"Yes, I promise to bring the black cloud back to Salander without hurting a single hair!" Curtis straightened up, placing his right hand on his chest with a stern expression. Taking the reins of the war horse, he rode his horse to the right-wing battlefield under the charge of Nilai, and "stepped on" the black cloud extremely fast. Like a bolt of lightning crossing the slope that was the dividing line in front of the town, at the top of the slope, "Neigh" Curtis took the reins, stopped his horse, and turned his head to look back,

On the left flank in the distance, a deafening roar mixed with a large number of screams came, and a large number of Normandy cavalry in black armor roared down from the commanding heights they had occupied like a flood.

The Normans finally launched the deadliest attack, at least 3,000 heavy armored cavalry, like steel spears, rushed into the already crumbling left flank, the war horse wrapped in iron armor made a thunderous rumble, a vague blood mist came under the horse's hooves, the cold light of the weapon flickered, even the morning fog could not cover it, countless Salander soldiers were knocked away by the war horses, overthrown,

The army could no longer hold on, the rout army fled all over the hills, and the black pressure was constantly pushed by the Normandy cavalry, which was miserable, and Envit, who was originally watching, and his direct Mamunouk knights, were completely missing at this moment

Curtis's body shook on his horse, his heart was like being hit by a heavy hammer, his face immediately turned pale, and in less than two hours, the left wing of 7,000 people was finished, and the old duke, who had only 4,000 troops, was about to face the crisis of being surrounded by the flank, and his situation can be imagined

"The direct subordinate team is ready, the whole army fights to the death, if you dare to retreat to the latter, you will be killed immediately! We have no way to retreat!" The sad voice of the old Duke of Russia and Germany also came at the same time in the rising morning light, becoming a swan song that resounded throughout the earth

"Lord Duke!"

Curtis's eyes blurred, and he forcibly turned his head and rushed to the slope where the right wing was, "Who is it?" A guard on the left flank defense line stopped Curtis, and it was much quieter than the fighting between the left wing and the center,

"I'm Curtis under the command of Lord Ode, and I have an urgent military situation to report to the master of Nilai!" Curtis stopped his horse, his eyes swept across the calm and unusually calm battlefield in surprise, and shouted to the guards blocking the road in front,

The guard glanced at the armor of the senior knight of Mamunuk on Curtis, and consciously got out of the way, Curtis did not dare to delay a little, and quickly walked in the direction of the right flank military flag,

The Normans did not have a lot of troops on the right flank, about 6,000 people, and sent 6 thousand troops to pile up on the opposite side, but the strange thing is that no matter the other two sides are fighting crazy, only the mountain wind is blowing on this side, and there is not a thousand people on the opposite side attacking the right flank, just watching quietly, this strange scene makes the atmosphere of the entire right wing extremely heavy

A thousand Salander crossbowmen, armed with Falcon standard armor, half-crouched on the slope of Nilai's right flank, and the thick defense line discharged by the heavily armed pikemen made the Normans on the opposite side basically dare not advance,

Generally speaking, the 3,000 guards deployed on the right flank, the smallest of the three, should be the main direction of attack of the Normans, but until now, the opposite side has nearly doubled its forces, and there is still no sign of attack.

After the Battle of Silver Sparrow, the Normans already knew the horror of the crossbow, at a distance of 100 meters, it was possible to shoot through the armor of the cavalry, and at a range of 50 meters, even the heavy armor of the heavy infantry could not stop the piercing of this killing weapon,

Behind the opposite defensive line, 20 ballista carts lined up, and the cold light of arrows in the hands of the crossbowmen like stars in the sky. Before the Normans approached, they were already afraid of these soldiers in black armor,

Brave, fearless, but also extremely cunning, attacking like fire, immobile like a mountain, such an opponent, even Normans did not dare to directly grab its edge "Nilai master" Curtis, who saw Nilai's figure, turned over from the black cloud. trotted to the front of Nilai and knelt down on one knee, "Lord Ode asked me to report that the Envit army on the left flank is close to being defeated, in order to avoid accidents, Lord Ode has ordered the Chinese army to shrink and defend, please evacuate immediately!"

"Black clouds?" Nilai glanced at Curtis's war horse, and when he heard what Curtis said, his face suddenly turned pale, "What about Envit? Doesn't he have 2,000 horsemunuk knights? How could it be crushed by a blow!" Nilai asked with a look of disbelief, in fact she already believed it,

Not just because of the black clouds of Curtis, but also because of the rumbling sound coming from the left flank. Those who are familiar with the battlefield know that this sound is like rolling thunder, a sign of the fierce onslaught of cavalry groups,

The left flank, which should have been the most solid and strong. At this time, there were constantly shocking sounds of fighting, screams, and the friction of weapons colliding and breaking. The neighing of the war horse before death, which was relatively vague before, can now be clearly felt closer and closer, indicating that the fierceness of the battle has reached a white-hot situation, it seems that the main force of the Normandy army has smashed all its strength on the left flank, and its own right flank, which should have become the main battlefield, has been directly ignored by the Normans

"Master Nilai, the battle on the left flank, Envit's army has watched coldly, and now it has retreated without a fight!" Curtis raised his head again and reported loudly, "Lord Duke has ordered the Chinese army to fight to the death, but under the onslaught of Normandy from both sides, it is difficult to ...... even fear" Curtis's voice was a little choked, and his eyes were bloodshot and said, "Please also Master Nilai, don't live up to Lord Duke's expectations!" ......

The sound of "boom" rolling thunder churned through the gloomy clouds, and the sky had been gloomy since morning. At noon, the wind suddenly blew, and clouds poured up from the sky, and the sky and the earth suddenly darkened, and there was a rumbling thunder on the horizon, and the wind blew for a while, and the soybean-sized raindrops crackled down, and a misty rain and mist spread on the dry and hard ground of Normandy.

In the tent of the Southern barracks, Statunko was discussing the situation with several generals of the Southern Army, and a map of Normandy was spread out on a simple four-legged stool

"Three days ago, the Northern Coalition suddenly left the scheduled rendezvous site El Alamein and headed north, according to the report of the remaining generals, the goal of the coalition army is Ilru, an important town in the east of Normandy! And according to the information provided by the expeditionary force, the main force of Normandy has been tracking the coalition army, and the coalition army has abandoned El Alamein, which has a complete defense, to enter Ilru north, and the Normans will definitely not let go of this opportunity, so we must speed up, I am afraid that the coalition army will have an accident!"

"No, how can I say that the coalition army also has 14,000 people, and the morale is very high......" Regarding Statunko's analysis, the commander of the Fifth Banner, Hamilton, said with some hesitation, "If you encounter the main force of Normandy, you should also have the strength to fight!"

"It's hard to say, the northern coalition forces lack tacit understanding and discipline with each other, and the combat power is not strong" For Hammiton's statement, the newly transferred second flag commander Cleveland did not agree, he said that the coalition army lacks a real main force, but also lacks an elite sharp knife unit, this force should be the backbone of the whole army, to be able to tear the enemy's defense line, directly smash the enemy's vital points, let the enemy collapse, no matter how many troops, there must be such a force to open the battle,

The opponent of the coalition army, the main force of Normandy, is a battle-hardened force, although it suffered a certain amount of heavy losses in the early stage, but as the coalition army burned everywhere, the soldiers' revenge is like a bowstring that has been pulled to the apex, once it is released, it is bound to be indomitable and invincible! Before Cleveland was transferred to the Southern Army, he was an adjutant chief of the Imperial Adjutant's Office, and he had extremely rich experience in command and analysis

"Tactics ready to go!" said Statunko thoughtfully, "this battle is very similar to the battle of the Mustang Plains fought a year ago in the north of Salander. ”

"Really! As soon as my lord said this, I remembered" Cleveland's eyes flashed with a hint of shock, touched his chin, and said, "It's really almost exactly the same as the situation of His Majesty at the beginning! When the coalition forces were completely relaxed, they suddenly launched a blocking battle, taking advantage of the favorable terrain to defeat the main force of the coalition forces in a short time, this possibility is completely preserved,

"The Normans with the home advantage, if you want to talk about the understanding of the terrain, the coalition generals are not as good as the Normans even if they are all combined! Therefore, it can be judged that the Normans will find the best place to fight before the coalition army reaches Ilru, and completely defeat the main force of the coalition army advancing to Ilru! In the hazy rain curtain, several black spots on the distant plain were rapidly expanding, and several galloping Salander cavalry appeared in front of them. The cavalrymen were covered with wolf bèi, covered with fish mud, and hurried away with whips, and the horses' hooves trampled on the mud and stained the horses' bellies, and their expressions were flustered.

Statunko's mind moved, and he immediately ordered, "Scouts, stop them!"

The Mamunuk's cavalry was too fast, and in an instant they pounced in front of them, and they were about to rush over.

The scout cavalry of the Falcon Army entered the rain curtain, the horses neighed and raised their front legs high, and an officer-like Salander cavalry fell heavily from the horse, and fell heavily in the muddy water with a "snap",

Soon, these Salander cavalrymen were brought in front of Statunko, and several almost collapsed figures fell heavily from the scout's hands to the ground, their foreheads were half covered by wet hair, their helmets were crooked, and the armor on their bodies was tattered.

The rain dripped from the faces and bodies of the Salander cavalrymen on the carpet inside the tent, stained with red blood

Staring at one of the guys, who was obviously an officer, Starunko's heart throbbed, and his eyes showed a compelling light that made people dare not look at it, exuding a terrifying aura, "You are from that unit?"

"Your Excellency, ......?" the Salander officer looked up blankly, his pale face covered with rain,

"The Falcon Empire's Southern Governor Statunko!" Statunko looked at it condescendingly, and said word by word (to be continued. )
