2367 The Emperor's Sword (6)
In the province of Luwu of the Istanbul Empire, the sound of heavy cavalry hooves brought smoke and dust in the distance, and a cavalryman wearing dark black armor and a white streamer tied to his head rushed to the front pass with the momentum of the wind and clouds
At the position of the pass, a golden unicorn flag fluttered at the top, seeing the cavalry that appeared in front, the winch of the pass gate was heavily pulled up one by one, the spiky iron gate of the fortress slowly rose, the cavalry rushed into the front gate and pulled the horse's head violently, and the soldiers next to him hurriedly surrounded him, and asked in a bustling voice, "Ulayan, how is the battle? Is the army of the Falcon Empire easy to fight? Is it really as rumored by the outside world?" "It is that there are some troubles, and the enemy is very tenacious! The brothers have suffered great losses." The messenger cavalry jumped off his horse, sighed with a faint sigh on his face, and the faces of the people around him became ugly, "Sure enough, I know that the army of the Falcon Empire is not easy to deal with!" A squad leader-like figure said, "Five thousand brothers, how many people are still alive?"
"Well, our army suffered five hundred casualties and defeated eight thousand people on the other side!" The messenger cavalry's face suddenly swept away the appearance just now, and the corners of his mouth grinned and said, "The Falcon Imperial Army is like that, don't look at what the Istan people say, in fact, they are the same people, if you stab them in, they will bleed and die, and in front of the black dragon heavy cavalry of my Viognier Kingdom, they will collapse almost as soon as they make contact!"
"Really, so we won!" After a moment of silence, a deafening cry erupted, "Win, we won!" The whole fortress was boiling
The report of the great victory at the front was quickly sent to the corps commander Jovia. Satisfied with the success of the operation, the Empire's motley army of eight thousand men did not perform any better than other motley armies, and according to intelligence. At present, the Falcon Empire army that has broken into Luwu Province is such a ragtag army, it is really a martial artist sent to the door, this general stared at the map on the table, Fortress Chorlenardo, where should be the main force of these imperial armies, if the combat power remains the same. The fortress should be able to hold on for two days, which is enough time for him to make a big detour with his cavalry. Attack this ragtag army of empires from behind,
If you can wipe out the Falcon Empire's intrusive troops...... Jovia's eyes were shining, and the army had been lurking in the Istanbul Empire for a month, and all he wanted was a stunning first victory in the First World War. It's just that the Falcon Imperial Army's reputation is too fierce and a little more famous. Destroying Gaul, swallowing Gangfei, and defeating nearly a million troops in the Central European Barrow region, Fei Shan killed 300,000 Fei Shan's army in one battle, and fought with such an enemy, even if it is too cautious, as for the Falcon Imperial Army on the opposite side, it is actually a ragtag army in the eastern province of the empire, and he naturally will not tell the soldiers below. The morale of the soldiers needed to be boosted by victory, as the first foreign reinforcement regiment to enter the Empire of Istanbul. Giovia commanded the Black Dragon Legion of the Viognier Kingdom in the southern part of the Inland Sea, with 5,000 cavalry and 15,000 infantry, including 1,500 heavy cavalry, which is the elite legion of the Viognier Kingdom.
The time to enter the Istanbul Empire was last month, because the internal chaos of the Empire was too chaotic, the local and central systems were not connected, and the eyes of the Imperial Intelligence Department were mainly stranded on the Kyoto side of Istanbul, so until the time of the attack of this legion, the report of the southern countries sending troops into Istanbul had not been issued
As the fat man expected, the empire's power expanded too quickly, especially after the sea country Strant was also annexed by the empire, the entire inland sea area has become the control area of the imperial navy, for the southern coastal region, facing the pressure from the behemoth of the north, forcing countries to join forces, and the direct war with the empire has not yet reached that level, but it is urgent to restrain the expansion of the empire's power,
Originally, the southern countries chose to support Fei Shan, who knew that in the battle on the plateau, Fei Shan's 300,000 combat power was exhausted, even the king was beheaded, and the imperial army controlled Fei Shan's country, Fei San was already unable to resist, and finally caused Crown Prince Fei San to commit suicide by drinking poison in despair, Fei Shan's defeat shook the south, and the strength of the Falcon Empire needs to be re-evaluated
Fei San is finished, so now in the north-central region can play a role in restraining the Falcon Empire, the eyes of the south are looking at the Istanbul Empire
Although the Istanbuls were defeated in Feshan, the foundation of the empire is still there, and the mainland has not experienced large-scale wars for more than 20 years, as a hegemon-level country that has ruled the Barrow region of Eastern Europe for a hundred years, how can the Iranian Empire not be willing to succumb to the fierce flames of the Falcon Empire, not to mention the rebel general of the Istanbul Empire, the governor of the Eastern Province of the Falcon Empire, Hayera, is still constantly attacking the borders of the Istanbul Empire, which is undoubtedly the best reason for the countries to send troops,
In the winter, taking advantage of the accession of the new emperor of the Islamic Empire, the six southern countries have planned this matter, and secretly sent people to sign a secret agreement with the Iraqi people, saying that they would send troops to help the Islamic Empire resist the invasion of the Falcon Empire and consolidate the central government's control over the locality, while the Islamic Empire promised to use the minerals and taxes of the six southern provinces as collateral to send troops, and the troops of the six countries, the first wave of which entered the first wave was full of 50,000 people, and entered the Islamic Empire as reinforcementsIsn't this the duty of the Iranian soldiers! It is precisely because of this that the six countries have the confidence to negotiate with the Falcon Empire.
The collapse of the two empires of Gaul and Congo, the turmoil in the Central European Baro and the Fessan region, and the impact of dozens of large and small countries, such a big change is the time when Obaro once again needs to define the framework anew
"The Falcon Empire is just an outsider, with the use of force to seize most of the land north of the Inland Sea, set off a series of wars of conquest, has seriously damaged the Obaro continent for thousands of years of north-south equilibrium, must immediately stop the military expansion of military operations" The attitude of the six countries is very clear, that is, to ask the empire to stop expanding "For the annexed Strand Sea Kingdom and the extinct Fishan Kingdom, it must be restored, and the imperial navy cannot enter the waters of other countries at will. The Inland Sea must be restored to its original state, and only then can we believe that the Empire has no ambitions for the southern lands. "Your Majesty has been given enough land and wealth. Why don't you still want to stop!" As an intermediary, Emperor Eero's letter to the Emperor of the Falcon Empire was written like this, as an intermediary, such a naked expression of mentality, indicating that the six southern countries have made preparations for the use of force, for the south, the expansion of the northern falcon is too terrible, if it cannot show the power of the south. Who dares to say that this extremely greedy falcon will not step across the inland sea with one foot, and the Falcon Imperial Navy is the overlord of the entire inland sea. Whoever has such a naval force in hand will inevitably have such an idea, but fortunately, the feedback from the empire, the Falcon Emperor agreed to negotiate.
And according to intelligence. The main force of the empire seems to be still fighting in a far away place, and at present on the side of the Istanbul Empire is only the troops of the Eastern Province, which is really a golden opportunity, the Falcon Emperor is not in the homeland, and the main force of the empire is on an expedition, and for two months, relying on the Iranian Empire, with the strength of the six countries. There should be no problem in opening an eastern province, which is going on in negotiations two months later. It will undoubtedly be very advantageous, whoever occupies the initiative will have the right to speak, and should use his strength to tell the emperor of the Falcon Empire that agreeing to the request is the wisest choice!
Ha Ye held his hand to appease the irritable war horse under his crotch, and looked at the siege battle ahead, the defenders on the fortress had already appeared wearing white cross and black background battle robes and armor, and hoplites with black and white helmets on their heads, holding heavy double-sided axes in their hands, and drove down the highlanders who rushed up in front of them, which couldn't help but make Ha Yela's eyebrows frown slightly,
As the No. 1 military general in the former Istanbul Empire, he doesn't remember that the Istanbul Empire has such a class, if he really has an impression, the bloody hand legion of the Southern Syri Kingdom has such a dress,
"My lord, something is wrong! I don't remember that the Iranian army had such a unit," said a member of Hayala's men, who had been with Hayela for many years, and looked confused.
"Yes, there is indeed a problem, but I can't say what it is!" Hayela snorted with a gloomy face, and the terrible intuition for danger that she had developed through a hundred battles was revealed at this moment, and she slowly raised her head, and gave a clear command, "Pass my order, the front team withdraws, and the archers cover with all their might! I don't know why, I have a feeling that we may have fallen into a trap!" "Trap!" The subordinate's face changed, and at this moment, a scout in the distance galloped over, panting and came to Hayala, reined in his horse violently, and said loudly, "My lord, I found a large number of cavalry approaching on the left flank!" "Sure enough, I knew there was a problem!" Hayela glanced ahead, the troops that had already driven up were entangled, and the types of troops that appeared this time made him also take a deep breath, is that a kind of scale infantry, holding a square scale gray-white shield in his hand, the armor on his body looks a little thin, and he is not wearing a helmet on his head, but wearing a strip of cloth with a red moon mark, the strip of cloth is very long, and the rest of the part flutters in the wind, which looks extremely strong,
This is the death squad of the Iraqi army, often served by people who have made mistakes or criminals in the army, all of whom have been sentenced to serious crimes, if they want to survive and get free, the way is to exchange a hundred heads of the enemy, mainly armed with bayonets and short and wide swords, some of them have undergone professional short-term training and are good at hand-to-hand combat, "Langur, you take all the machetes to stop the flank cavalry! Be sure to stop them!" At the critical moment, Hayela's expression did not move, but he just waved his hand to a general behind him, and said in a condensed voice"There are only so many troops in the fortress, and after attacking for several days in a row, even if it can be hidden, the power that can break out is limited, but the cavalry from the flanks is the big problem, stop him, I will mobilize the main force to support you!" "Yes, my subordinates understand!" The general named Langur nodded and said, the burly man was like a mountain bear, wearing thick solid chain mail, with a helmet with interlaced bear teeth on his head, the immortal god, Langur, the head of the famous four fierce generals under the command of Hayala, it is said that he once fought a squadron of 100 people by himself, and created forty-five places in his body, and he was able to jump around alive, so that the enemy called him the immortal in horror, but when he arrived in the Hayala army, he became an immortal
Unlike a Lemur who collapsed in front of him, Lemur's soldiers were all members of the Highland tribes, and the officers in the main force of Hayala were all his henchmen brought out all the year round. The shield bearers were well combined, and five of the highly combat-effective highlander machete teams broke away from the queue and marched towards the side of the main force, these are the strong men in the highlanders, with the iron blade inlaid with the shoulder blade of the ox, the body is wearing a heavy body, and its powerful slash is that even the heavy cavalry armor can be smashed into the dent, and the heavy armaments that Hayela got from the empire are all thrown into the body of these machetemen, they are the killing machines that Hayela has built up with countless efforts and financial resources, and it is also the capital of Hayela's ability to suppress the Iranian army all the way, this time, it can be regarded as all pressed up!
Solved the flank problem, the corners of Hayela's mouth showed a cruel smile, if this is the opponent's hole card, then now he has seen it, it is not a good arrangement, raised his hand, Hayela pointed to the fortress in the fierce battle, and shouted, "The enemy has killed himself, what are we waiting for, press the whole line, kill them!"
"Kill!" All the queues left on the side of the formation all swarmed up, countless sharp weapons were slashing and killing, the two sides of the fierce battle gritted their teeth, bleeding profusely, there were swords and swords everywhere, and the battle line was completely beaten into blood red,
"Go ahead, kill them all!"
"Block, block!"
Both sides stepped on the wounded and the deceased's human bodies to continue to fight, screams continued one after another, the fierce slamming of weapons, sparks splashed, the wounded were in **, the soldiers had red eyes, and their feet were slippery and greasy, that was the human body that was stepping on, and the thick smell of blood choked their noses,
"Bastard, where are the reinforcements, why haven't the reinforcements come yet!" Marquis Marquis Marquis, the general of Istan in the fortress, scolded angrily, just from the moment he found that Hayela wanted to run, he was excited and showed his hole cards, but he didn't expect that Ha couldn't run away, and all the troops that came up at once were as unstoppable as a flood! (To be continued......)
