1666 Empire vs. Empire (V)

The sudden rainstorm outside the window hit the glass like a bead of broken thread, and the commander-in-chief of the left wing of the Gallic army, Greda, stood in front of the window with a pale face, holding the report on the riot area in his right hand, the situation of the development of the riot was completely beyond his imagination, first Hitachi City, and then the Bello area thirty miles away from Hitachi City, the Stanku area, it seemed that overnight, the riot completely turned into a great rebellion with the momentum of the prairie fire, and even the troops sent to pacify did not dare to advance again,

At this moment, he realized that the severity of the Hitachi City incident was simply a destructive disaster, and it was too careless! The corners of Greda's mouth flashed with bitterness,

As long as the barracks can be fed, such a model is set up, soon spread like a prairie fire, for a long time, the anger of the Gallic army hidden in the hearts of the Lasties finally broke out, hundreds of thousands of displaced people rioted, the first to go to the Rusty people who had been forbearance seemed to be awakened overnight, one became two, two became a group, the group and the group met into a team, picked up a simple weapon, desperately pounced on the nearest local garrison

"Urgent, there are homeless people attacking the army everywhere!"

The herald cavalry was drenched in rain and ran into the base camp from the rain curtain, and the commanders of the infantry regiments of the local army, who had just attended the meeting, were completely frightened by the sight in front of them, they had become accustomed to facing those tame, gentle, and obedient people, and now, they suddenly felt that the ground under their feet was crumbling, and the displaced people who had been like ants had suddenly become so brave and unafraid of death, that these wandering people between the troops had cut off the connection between the troops,

Crowds were gathered to attack the army's logistics troops, and in some areas, they directly attacked the local camps, and the garrison troops saw the large crowds of displaced people gathering, and immediately ordered a formation to come and drive them away. The officers on their horses, swords unfurled, rode their horses straight towards the demonstrative crowd, their hooves knocking down the displaced people, as the local garrisons had traditionally driven away, and in their experience, the gathered homeless people ran faster than frightened rabbits at the sight of the army.

But today, the situation was unexpected, and the homeless people, who were still hesitating, were enraged and "rushed forward." Catch that bastard"

I don't know who shouted among the homeless, but the homeless, who was still in terror, quickly turned into a terrible storm and broke out, and hundreds of people roared and rushed up, and suddenly pounced on the officer who hit the man on horseback.

Before the local garrison of several hundred people could react, the queue was smashed in an instant in the surging crowd like a leaf in the storm. The arrogant officer was pulled off his horse. The soldiers fled in wolves, dozens or even hundreds, surrounded a soldier and fought in the Lanjie area, less than fifty miles from Hitachi Castle. Right under the noses of the 17th Local Infantry Regiment, the mob ransacked the army's rear camp warehouses and wiped out a squadron of garrison troops.

The noise of the fierce fighting can be heard even in the city of Langer. The 17th Infantry Regiment, which had 6,000 infantry, did not dare to go out of the city to rescue. According to reports, there were as many as 70,000 mobs outside the city at that time, and it was night. When a force of several thousand men drove out of the city, it was tantamount to crashing headlong into a pile of displaced people, and they were not yet eaten alive

The whole area is in chaos,

Especially in the Hitachi Castle area, the source of the riots, the mob occupying the city distributed food to the outside on a large scale, which led to a large number of displaced people gathering in these areas, more and more, and the number of people suddenly changed from tens of thousands to more than 100,000. "It has been confirmed that this riot has the support of the Northwest rebels! Greda hurriedly handed over the report signed with his name to the legion base camp, involving hundreds of thousands of people, covering the entire left flank of the army in just a few days, the situation must be stabilized, as for this riot, it doesn't matter whether it is related to the Northwest rebels or not, the empire needs a reason to suppress it strongly, even if it is wielding a butcher's knife, it also needs a seemingly righteous reason.

The commander of the Sixth Gallic Army, Hasenlimpo, took this report with a hesitant expression,

He knew that as soon as he signed his name on the order to counter-insurgency, the left-wing army would launch a bloody massacre, the blood of hundreds of thousands of displaced people was enough to make himself forever bound and humiliated, before the war, slaughtered hundreds of thousands of displaced people on his own side, and these displaced people were still Gauls, if such news was transmitted back to Gaul Kyoto, no matter what the victory or defeat, his reputation would be completely ruined, but if he did not sign, the riot formed by the displaced people would soon impact the entire left wing, and then the army would collapse before the battle, and the left wing would collapse, involving the 300,000 troops of this battle, and the northwest rebels on the opposite side would not let go of such an excellent opportunity, which is already the last force that the Gallic Empire is currently able to gather,

The Slavs in the north, the Central Beians in the east, and now the Falcon Empire in the west, the three-hundred-year-old Gallic Empire, under the convergence of the three forces, the powerful Gallic Empire in the past is rapidly falling from the seat of the northern overlord of Obaro, and there are hundreds of thousands of Gallic troops, but they are forced to fight on three fronts, tired and coping, especially the Falcon Empire rising in the west, in just 2 years, from a small local power, gradually encroached, swallowed the northwest, and fought the southwest, and has formed the strength to compete with the empire. "I hope this rainstorm can wash away a qiē!"

Hasenranpo closed his eyes, thinking that he was about to let the blood flow all over the earth because of his order, he took a deep breath of air with water vapor with difficulty, and withdrew his gaze from the distance outside the window, after all, he was a decisive general, after a short period of distraction, he picked up the pen on the table, and scribbled his name on the order book, the left-wing army went all out to kill the homeless, and it was necessary to stabilize the situation in the shortest possible time, this battle, the empire can no longer afford to lose!

"Someone, give this order to Greda on the left flank!" Loading the order book, Hasenlampo handed it to the guards at the door, the herald from the left flank has been waiting, and when he got the order back, he rushed back to the base camp of the left wing non-stop, and Gleda, who had been waiting in the base camp, glanced at the signature on the order book, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously skimmed, it seems that Lord Hasenlampo has been mentally prepared, so let's start, Gleda rolled up the order book and shouted to the guards at the door, "Come, convey the order immediately." From now on, the whole army will put down the rebellion!"

"Legion headquarters order, all armies to quell the rebellion!"

The order from the base camp was quickly delivered to the armies, and the Gallic army on the left flank near Hitachi Castle was mobilized, and the first to march towards Hitachi Castle was the Nineteenth Infantry Regiment of Gaul, the defense area of the Nineteenth Infantry Regiment of Grilen Castle, about 60 miles away from Nikko Castle,

As soon as the order was received, the commander of the 19th Infantry Regiment, Turo, immediately ordered the assembly of troops, because of the proximity to the city of Nikko. He was also frequently attacked by mobs here, several times, the mob almost stormed the camp of the 19th Infantry Regiment, Turo had long wanted to find an opportunity, a hard blow to the mob that made him lose face, received an order from the legion headquarters, he knew that his opportunity had come, the army marched into the rebellion with all its might, and the order said who could take the core of the rebellion Hitachi Castle first. It will be the first contribution to this counterinsurgency

The sky was gray and raining, and the 7,800 men of the 19th Infantry Regiment marched from Grilen Castle to a bay thirty miles from Hitachi Castle, and the surface of the lake was rippled by rain. Turro was on his horse, staring at the lake in front of him, and the infantry regiment had marched forty miles into the center of the riot, but it was not stopped by a mob force. This made Touro feel a little bad in his heart, as if he was being put into the hinterland by the other party,

"Is it finally here?"

Suddenly. Turro seemed to sense something, raised his head, his gaze swept over the horizon in front of him, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a large shadow appeared on the horizon in front of him in the white rain that flew in the sky.

"Attention!" The officer who walked forward cautiously raised his hand, the closer he got to the rumored core of the mob, everyone's spirit began to tense, hundreds of thousands of mobs, even if they stick out their heads for you to chop, it will take several days,

The panting soldiers hesitated and stopped, "It's the rebels!"

"What are you afraid of, the rebels are nothing but a rabble" The Gallic officer rode around on horseback, and gave the panicked soldier a horsewhip, which made the soldier's eyes blush, "What are you panicking, stand back in the queue!" punched and kicked them back to where they were. The team fell silent.

A muffled thunderous sound came from the opposite side, the black shadow was rapidly expanding, the earth was shaking slightly, a black cloud covered the front, a dazzling weapon cold light exploded at the black shadow position at a distance of 200 meters, a huge black steel formation came out of the white rain, the black majestic war horse, the knight on it was wearing heavy black armor, and in his hand was a cavalry spear like a thorn wall, and the black pressure was quickly approaching,

I saw that the number of cavalry on the opposite side was about a thousand, and the black war horse cluster was rushing forward like the wind in the wind and rain, and the rumbling horse hooves were like waves and tsunamis.

As the distance approached, the image of the knight above became clearer and clearer, the sharp array formed by the black pressed metal iron hooves, the riding spears raised forward in unison, and the dirt splashed by the thousands of horse hooves, flying all over the sky, a huge and neat steel phalanx suddenly revealed the sharp teeth that were hideous and blood-devouring,

A cold flash of steel, like a dazzling ribbon of light, the cold rain hit the helmets of these black cavalrymen, and the red long feather was as gorgeous as a flame, pressing closer at an incredibly high speed! Every blink of an eye, it was a little closer! You can see the neatly side by side cavalry spears, the hideous faces of the cavalry, the white gas spewed out from the nostrils of the horses, the soldiers and horses galloping forward, like a storm, like a raging storm, and swept in a dense formation. The eyes of the Gallic soldiers were confused and puzzled, the cavalry was not infantry, and they could go to the battlefield with a weapon, and the cavalry needed to be able to ride well, and judging from the neat and uniform movements on the opposite side, this could not be the ragtag cavalry that could be hastily put together in a short period of time, "Damn, it's the cavalry of the Northwest Rebel Army!" In the Gallic army, I don't know who shouted bitterly, blowing away a rain curtain in front of them, and people's vision became clearer. All the phalanxes were in chaos at once, and the cavalry of the Northwest Rebels was notoriously fierce, and the Gallic soldiers who saw this scene immediately turned pale with fright

"It's the Northwest Rebels!

"Oh my God, run, we're going to die!" One by one, the soldiers dropped their weapons and ran out of the queue, and the officers stopped them shouting: "Don't run! Whoever runs will be killed!" "Stop! I order you to stop!" But more and more soldiers are fleeing!"Don't mess around, it's just some ordinary rebels on the other side!" Touro, the commander of the 19th Infantry Regiment, called out on his horse

A loud shout, suddenly came from the rain curtain in front of him, completely drowning out his words, this was the battle cry of the cavalry charge of the Central Army of the Falcon Empire! The whole group of cavalry crashed heavily into the chaotic ranks of the Gauls. It was like a swirling spike flail smashing heavily on the thin armor, the fragments were splashing, and even the hundreds of Gallic soldiers who were the first to contact could be clearly seen, directly swept into the galloping war horses, and turned into a cloud of meat on the ground. It's the cavalry of the Northwest rebels!" The chaotic Gaul was completely overwhelmed by the cavalry, and the black cavalry that came with a whistling blood, before they could fully react, had already struck by them like a hurricane, bringing up a rush of blood,

The head of the "killing" fighter was slashed into the air by a sharp blade, and the cavalry came like rolling thunder. Thousands of flying horses' hooves kicked down from the front, and thousands of people shouted "kill" in fright, looking at the corpses of their comrades like residual leaves that have been rolled up in the storm. Knocked down, trampled, and finally torn apart by the galloping horses, the 19th Gallic Local Infantry Regiment, which was only the combat strength of the local army, suddenly collapsed. All queues immediately collapsed. The soldiers no longer heeded the order, scrambled to drop their weapons, turned and fled.

The scattered soldiers are like the water that has opened the floodgates, like the waves of a river. The crowd was surging, and the troops behind it were suddenly overwhelmed. There was a clamor everywhere, "Run, run!" and "No life!" The Gallic soldiers scattered and fled, trampling and squeezing each other. Rolling, colliding, Bai Huahua's weapons were thrown to the ground, and there were discarded infantry regimental flags everywhere. In an instant, the army of more than 7,000 people was torn apart by the impact of the cavalry of 1,000 people, and there was no longer zài

"What the hell is going on, how did the outcasts become rebels in the Northwest?" Tulo pale and stopped his useless shouts,

At this time, there was no power that could save his subordinates from the rout, and groups of routs ran past him, "It's too fast, it's only half an hour!" Turo's eyes were glazed, and he didn't even have the expected resistance, it was a completely one-sided slaughter

The captain of his personal guard ran over panting, "My lord, the rebels in the northwest have been killed, let's retreat quickly!"

"How can there be a rebel army in the northwest?" Turro muttered to himself in a trance, and the captain of his personal guard thought he hadn't heard, and repeatedly shouted, "My lord, if we don't retreat, we will all die here."

"So what are you waiting for!"

Turro snorted, as if he realized how dangerous his situation was, and shouted angrily, "Quick, order the whole army to evacuate, run as far as you can, these intelligence officers who say that only the outcasts here deserve to die!"

The distant mountains meander, the confusion and drizzle add a bit of hazy autumn, and the mountains are full of red leaves, like a burning flame spreading from the mountainside to the top of the mountain

Hu Keqili, the central general in charge of the left wing, walked up the steps of the mountain road surrounded by more than a dozen falcon generals, and in a wide flat on the top of the mountain, in the drizzle, a slightly chubby figure was standing quietly on the top of the mountain, dressed in black demon king armor, and behind him was a big red cloak hanging down from his shoulders,

The broad back just stood there, but it gave people an unfathomable feeling, as if it contained the most terrible power in the world, like an undercurrent ocean, black hair draped over the shoulders, a pair of eyes full of bewitching charm, cold and radiant, were looking at the vast earth beneath their feet, making people feel that they could destroy anyone or anything at any time. "Majesty!"

Ten meters away from his back, Hu Keqili and the generals behind him stopped neatly and said with a respectful expression

"How's the plan going?" the fat man turned from the front, "The Liaoyuan plan has begun," Hu Keqili replied with an excited expression, "The 15,000 men of the Central Army have already taken control of the fifty-mile area centered on Hitachi Castle according to the plan, and the counterinsurgency army sent by the Gauls has been defeated, and I believe that more drastic measures will be taken soon!"

Hu Keqili's voice stopped, with a hint of sternness on his face, and he continued: "The follow-up army of 50,000 has been prepared, as long as His Majesty gives an order, our army will open a gap from the left flank of Hitachi Castle, and attack the enemy's left flank in one fell swoop, coupled with the sluggishness formed by the movement of hundreds of thousands of wandering Gallic troops, even if the Gauls react as quickly as possible, and to gather enough troops to fight our army, it will be at least ten days later, and our army will have already retreated safely by then!"

"In that case, let's go and prepare!" The fat man turned around, nodded with a deep gaze, the troops are insufficient, and the only way to delay the pace of the Gauls is to use external forces, hundreds of thousands of homeless people are undoubtedly the best help to disrupt the Gauls' plans, just think about the hundreds of thousands of homeless people who are about to be involved in the bloody battlefield, the fat man's heart is still a little sad, (to be continued......)
