1880 Xinjing Turbulence (3)

"The King?...... King!"

Duke Putao looked stunned, in disbelief, his voice was directly raised a few degrees, his hand trembled slightly to open his own order, his eyes were as hot as a flame and looked at it carefully, the position of the signatory, what caught his eye was a line of hard font that was difficult to see, maybe a student who had just studied for more than a year would write better than this person's handwriting, but at this moment, the three words of Dustan depicted in this ugly handwriting had already made Duke Putao have the urge to immediately kneel on the ground and cry bitterly at the hundreds of years of ups and downs of Putaohai, the founding of the countryDuke Putao is excited and irrepressible, since hundreds of years ago, the territory of the Putao Kingdom, which was several times larger than the current one, was divided in the war, and the title of the new kingdom has always been something that the monarchs of Putao have dreamed of, hundreds of years have passed, and the strength of Putao has become weaker and weaker, and the Duke of Putao has given up this dream, but the result has fallen from the sky

"This ...... Isn't it too much of a joke to establish a kingdom in Putao,...... "Duke Putao's happy mouth can't be closed, but his family knows his own affairs, according to the current strength of Putao, it will be up to the sky to become a principality, if he really steps up to the steps of the kingdom, the eyes of the Central European and Barro countries will fall on Putao, in the final analysis, the countries are still about strength! He looked a little nervous, smiled awkwardly, took out a white handkerchief and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, although it was a cold winter December with low temperatures," Your Excellency the Duke can rest assured that His Majesty the Emperor believes that the Duchy of Putao is very loyal to the Empire, and it is very important to the Empire, and His Majesty never treats his friends badly, so His Excellency the Duke is specially allowed to form the Putao Kingdom, and we will fully support it in terms of military and financial resources!" Sokutus Delan's pretty face smiled with a little comfort, and said slowly, "And this news will soon be transmitted by the Foreign Affairs Department of the Falcon Empire to the entire Obarro Continent, and other countries must first ask the Falcon Empire's attitude if they want to pay attention to the Putao." So you can congratulate the Duke in advance, your dream of building a country can finally come true!"

"Is it announced by the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs in person? Thank you so much!" Duke Putao showed irrepressible joy on his face, and his eyes kept looking at the cold and abnormal face of Dustrunkai, the Minister of the Imperial Navy next to him, this news was so sudden that Duke Putao couldn't figure out whether it was joy or worry for a while,

But one thing is clear, it is not him, the duke, who is now dominating the Putao region, but the Falcon Empire's naval minister beside him, and since July, the main naval force of the Falcon Empire has been gathered in Putao. There are more than one hundred and ten warships, more than two hundred auxiliary ships of all kinds, and nearly 30,000 combat personnel of the Falcon Empire's navy are in Putao, this huge military force is enough to crush the Duchy of Putao, which has disarmed itself, several times.

"The establishment of the state is a matter of His Majesty's decision, and the Imperial Navy naturally supports it with all its might, so Lord Duke can rest assured!" Dustrunkai felt the cowardice from the duke, and his face was grim. He snorted in a dull tone

"There, there is Lord Dustrunkay in charge, and those clowns who jump off the beam don't have to worry!" Duke Putau's face finally relaxed when he heard this

"I still have some business to talk about with Master Dustrenkay," Sokutus Delan said in a lighter tone. Eyebrows flowed, revealing the meaning of sending off guests, and Duke Putao immediately said that he still had urgent matters to deal with in the Duke's Palace, and hurriedly got into the carriage. waved his hand to the two and left, the founding of the country is not as simple as a sentence, and there are many things involved. The Duke of Putao just needed to rush back immediately to discuss with his subordinates, and when the Duke of Putao's carriage completely disappeared from the dock, the Minister of the Navy, Dustrunkai, turned his head with a solemn face and asked, "Miss Dailan, I take the liberty of asking, why did Your Majesty allow Putao to establish the country? This should not be in the reported plan!"

"Can you walk and get into the carriage again?" To be honest, I'm a little dizzy, I've been on the boat for three days, and I still feel like I can't stand on my feet!" Sokutus Delan's coquettish mouth smiled wryly, and she made a gesture as she walked downstream along the pier, the white waves drifting and the ice floes rising and falling in the pale white water

"Of course!" Dustrenkai followed beside him, as the fat man's henchman and clan, he knew very well that the identity of the woman in front of him was not simple, and even knew that this woman could represent that person in some places, this was the eyes of the Falcon Majesty arranged in the business alliance, "Your Majesty's plan, Your Majesty appreciates it very much!"

Sokutus Delan said as he walked, "And His Majesty also knows the concerns of the adults, although Putao is currently respectful to us, but no one dares to guarantee that Putao will not regard us as enemies that day! As for the reason for the establishment of the state of Putao, it has been written in the letter to the lords," said Sokutus Delan with a calm expression, "The reason for the establishment of the state of Putao?"

Dustronike's face was stunned, and he hurriedly opened the scroll in his hand, his eyes swept over, his eyes burst out with a flickering light, he gasped, and his voice trembled with a trace of irrepressible trembling, "Amazing, Your Majesty's hand is really powerful, let Putao build the country, we can use Putao as a springboard to completely take over the borderline of Putao, after all, hundreds of years ago, where can it be regarded as the control area of Putao people!" With the card of Putao's founding of the country in front, no one will be able to say anything to the empire even if it swallows Gangfei Coastal in one gulp! As long as this strategic goal is accomplished, even if Putao is founded, it will be surrounded by the empire, and there will be no other way than to follow the empire all the way!"

"That's right, His Majesty left the Putao card at the beginning, just waiting for the opportunity to start from the Putao region and split the southern part of the Gangfei Empire!" Sokutus Delan nodded, looked at the Putao Sea floating with ice floe, and said with a sharp look on his face. This time, the Gangfei people asked us for help, the empire can take this opportunity to exert pressure, if nothing else, there will be news within this month, as long as the Gangfei people also agree to the establishment of the Putao state, then whether the Gangfei people agree or not, the trend of southern division will accelerate, in addition to diplomatic actions, Lord Sallton's Southern Second Army 40,000 people will also arrive in Putao in the near future, and will cooperate with the battle plan of the adults"

Gangnon-Central, Focodil. In the heavy snow, the muddy land, the desolate battle cry of "Woo Woo Woo ......" resounded throughout the vast land, and the blue army formation of the Gangfei army spread out like a long wall, and on the opposite side of the Gangfei main army, the pure red army was also stopping in an orderly manner: "Bastard, get rid of these Iraqis immediately! Duke Andya ordered to the general behind him with an angry expression, his eyes were full of anger and looked at the battle flag fluttering in front of the opposite Iraqi army formation, and it was the cunning guy named Hayela, who didn't kill him last time. Now it's like a kraft candy that can't be shaken off! After receiving the news of the crisis in Kyoto, the main force of Fukodil's side decided to return to help, but he did not expect to be closely followed by the 110,000 troops of Hayala, the governor of the East of Istanbul on the opposite side.

With the sound of the battle horn tearing through the sky, under the goose feather snow, one after another infantry and cavalry teams began to move, and various battle flags flew in the air. Dressed in heavy armor and drawing a long serrated greatsword in his hand, the main infantry of the main station of Istanbul wearing a spiked helmet on his head and holding a shield in his hand. Their eyes on the opposite side were flashing with greed and bloodthirsty red light, and the 110,000-strong troops of the Istan were neatly spread out under the banner of the stars and moons, numerous but not chaotic. A qiē well-organized. The heralds ran around, quiet and solemn.

On a splendid chariot pulled by eight war horses, Hayera, the governor of the East of Istanbul, looked at the Gangafe troops opposite. The corner of his mouth sneered, raised his right hand, and the huge battle flag unfurled in the wind behind him, and the Governor of the East, Hayera, was known as "the hunting dog of the Emperor of Istan!" Although the man was fat, he was a veteran of the battle,

After experiencing an ambush, now Hayela's march is looking forward to it, just like an old rich man who is a turtle, afraid that he will leave something behind while walking, even if it is a straw, he must resolutely pick it up, and follow the Gangfei army with the posture of the tail of the crane, steady and steady, and let Duke Andya's ambush fail several times,

In the half month since the battle, in addition to the Fukodir ambush to gain some advantages, the main force of the Gangfei army did not take advantage of the Governor of Hayera, who was tricky in this battle and did not play cards according to common sense, but was at a loss, like a mouse pulling a turtle, and he didn't know where to start at all, "This is an oriental monster on the battlefield!"

In the eyes of the whole army, except for the shameless Istanbul who made a mistake at the beginning, now the corps has a tacit understanding, leaving no dead ends, the cavalry is on each other's wings, and the center is slowly advancing, and the accurate, well-trained, and crisp mobilization ability that comes out of the table can be called pleasing to the eye. It is no wonder that even a figure like the Emperor of Istanbul dared to trust half of his forces to this Hayala, and although the forces of the Iraqi people suffered losses in Fukodir, they were still very considerable.

In the middle is the sixteen infantry wings of the main battle, a total of 50,000 people, all of them are battle-hardened Iraqi regular troops, wearing heavy armor, in their hands is a solid iron shield wall, the left flank is arranged with a mixed light cavalry, the number is 25,000 people, all kinds of flags are swept in the wind, the most striking of which is the Istan light cavalry archers wearing red armor and hanging a red braid on the top of their heads, these light cavalry are much better equipped than other troops, and they are also the troops that make the opposite Gangfei troops feel a headache, and finally there are the lion guard gunners who are arranged to cruise on the right, these spear throwers are all wearing light armor, short swords across their waists, and four to six short javelins on each person, these throwers are not very well armed, but the throwing guns in their hands can reach sixty to eighty meters, and a single salvo can not withstand even a heavy infantry group.

Seeing the Governor's hand raised,

"Victory! Victory! Victory!"

The light cavalry on the left flank began to move, like a sea tide and a landslide, the red armor brought up a gorgeous Ambilight, and the strong and burly war horses pulsated neatly. At its neat pace, the earth seemed to be sinking. Immediately after, the sound of heavy hooves like an avalanche of thunder sounded, and the light cavalry began to accelerate, from the beginning of the trot to a little acceleration, and finally turned into a gallop, like a red tide.

"Spear!"

The Gangfei army on the opposite side began to stir, countless spears lined up in a line, and the sound of the powerful bowstring shaking at the rear of the military formation shook the entire space at the same time, and a dense and terrifying arrow covered the inky sky like locusts from the rear of the Gangfei army in an instant, like a gorgeous metal light rain, crossing the distance of dozens of meters in front, drawing a graceful arc in the air towards the Iranian cavalry cluster. The Istan light cavalry was blasted open by the metal arrows, but at the same time, the light cavalry spears also slammed into the neatly arranged left flank of the Gang Fei in front of them like a huge rolling dragon. "Bang" There was a bone-cracking crash, and the non-infantry who fluctuated in the queue were smashed by the impact, and the war horses comparable to giant beasts pressed up like a mountain

"Ukawa!" "Ukawa!" The Islamic light cavalry shouted and roared one after another, and countless flying swords in their hands rampaged through the group of infantry of the Gangfei, they disrupted the flanks of the Gangfei like death squads, and the impact arrows had cut deep into the middle edge of the Gangfei army, and the momentum was like a red-hot knife, cutting like a cream cake as smooth as a mirror. Dragged out a blood-colored long mark, the Gangfei army suffered heavy losses, and the Istan also suffered heavy losses, and under the countless thorns of the Gangfei people, the cavalry fell to the snowy field that was hot and muddy with blood in an instant.

"Right flank!

The Governor of the East, Khayara, withdrew his gaze from the left side of the fierce battle, grinned at the corners of his mouth, and raised his hand again, not giving Gangfei people any respite,

"Bastard!"

Duke Andya shuddered in his heart. My heart tightened for a moment, as if I felt something,

The unnatural fanaticism and fear of death of the people of Islam are clearly trying to prevent themselves from returning to Kyoto. If the main force is unable to return to Kyoto...... Duke Andya hardly dared to think about it,

His eyes were blood-red and his fists were clenched, and his face was ugly, and he ordered loudly, "Cavalry, stop them immediately!" Wielding countless snow-bright long swords, he galloped towards the spear thrower opposite, galloping in the wind. Countless throwing spears struck at you, like lightning in the sky. Fiercely stabbed into the breastplate of the non-cavalry. "Shoot!"

The gun pitchers of the Istanbul people are like rows of replacement machines, their individual combat is very ordinary, but once they become a cluster, they are a killing frenzy that sweeps across the battlefield, the javelins in their hands are like lightning flashes in the air, throwing them at the Gauls in the distance, crossing the arc and plunging into the crowd of non-soldiers, only to see an arc falling, which is the blood flowers in the crowd blooming,

"Fight back, kill all these Istanbul bastards!"

Behind him, a large number of elite Praetorian Guard cavalry transferred from the main formation were entering the battlefield, and the surprise attack of the Istanbul light cavalry finally showed its exhaustion, and in front of the Janissaries who were flying in the wind, thousands of horses' hooves trampled them, and the screams were completely drowned out in the hustle and bustle.

"Woo woo" represents the retreat of the melodious and strange horn sound from the direction of the Iranian army, it seems that the Iraqi people can't bear it! Duke Andya secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but unfortunately, his breath has not been completely released, "pop" countless violent crashing sounds have come from the front, and the ground shakes! "Attention, heavy cavalry!"

The hesitant shout in front made Duke Andia follow the sound, only to see a steel triangle of about a thousand people has rushed over like a meteor across the sky, the war horse is like thunder, the red heavy armor that rises and falls, the knight on the horse can only see the eyes, and the others are covered with a layer of red armor like fish scales, and two staggered long handles are exposed on the shoulders, "It's the Istanbul Glow Heavy Cavalry!"

Duke Andya shuddered, and was stunned for a moment, these red armor heavy horses. It's like a torrential rain shot out of an avalanche, and rows of them hit the tired bodies of their own soldiers, snapping. Countless soldiers were hit hard and flew out, "Fooled!" Duke Andya was already pale at this moment, his fists were clenched together, and at such a close distance, he was hit head-on by a heavy cavalry armed to the teeth, unless it was a solemn gun formation, a qiē block was futile, and the little advantage just gained was not only completely lost, but also the danger of being chiseled through the front,

Although there are only about 1,000 people, the opponent's heavy cavalry is too sharp, and the time of the attack is also very well grasped.

In the face of this heavy cavalry rushing towards the back of the military formation, the Gangfei soldiers who were intercepting head-on were like being hit head-on by the waves, stirring up countless splashing waves.

That is the blood of the soldiers. Their weapons clanged against the iron armor of these heavy cavalrymen, and it had little effect,

On the contrary, after the initial impact, the glow heavy cavalry, the famous killing weapon of the Istanbuls, pulled out the long-handled arc moon knives staggered behind their backs.

With every heavy swing of the well-trained, a Gangfei soldier let out a scream and rolled to the ground!

Swords and horses, heads rolling, red heavy cavalry is like the rice waves that have been hit by the typhoon, even those who can escape by luck will be trampled into flesh by the iron hooves that follow, "surround them!"

Fortunately, the number of heavy cavalry is limited, and after impacting for a while, it shows exhaustive fatigue, otherwise Andya can already consider running away, the red heavy cavalry decisively chose to retreat, and the angry Andya almost vomited blood,

On the first day, the losses on both sides were not small, tactically, neither side stood too cheap, but strategically, Andya knew that he had lost,

Because the other party used this most simple and direct method to completely nail his army back to Kyoto! (To be continued......
