Chapter 67: The Elephant of the Dead Country
In the hurricane pass, the million-strong army of the Fengdu Empire gathered.
Zheng Fengdu had already arrived here to preside over the war, and Shen Gongbao, who was going to Fengdu City to find him, was destined to have no chance to meet for the time being.
There are 10,000 people, boundless, not to mention the scene of millions of troops.
Endless tents stretched from the mountain pass to several border cities in Song Emperor County.
The Eighth and Eleventh Legions of the Black Pupil Empire have reached the north of Hurricane Pass, with a total of nearly half a million men. ”
The Black Pupil Empire Templar Knights are about to reach the hurricane pass, with a total of nearly 100,000 knights, led by Paladin An Feng. ”
......
As soon as the army was assembled and dispatched, various military reports began to flow one after another.
As soon as the Fengdu Empire's army was mobilized, it was impossible to conceal it. With such a large-scale gathering, the Black Pupil Empire is not a fool, so it naturally knows what it means.
Correspondingly, the boss's Black Pupil Empire also began to mobilize.
However, after all, it is a declining empire, and this mobilization force is far from being the opponent of the Fengdu Empire.
In less than a month, the Fengdu Empire could gather millions of troops to the Song Emperor County, while the Black Pupil Empire only mobilized the two legions closest to the Hurricane Pass. The Knights of the Templar were able to arrive, not because the Black Pupil Empire government had such great ability.
The Knights of the Templar are subordinate to the Hades Temple, and behind the Black Pupil Empire's Hades Temple is the support of the Mostek family. Naturally, for the actions of the Fengdu Empire, he reacted so quickly and rushed to the aid of the Hurricane Pass at the request of the Black Pupil Royal Family.
"Hmph, Knights of the Templars, but Er'er!" Zheng Feng sat down, the corners of his mouth raised, and said disdainfully.
This is not intentional arrogance, but compared to the Holy Knights, the Knights of the Templars of the Black Pupil Empire are really nothing. Even if the Holy Knights are not in the sequence of this national war, the Knights Templar will not be able to change the outcome of the war, but only pay some more sacrifices.
"Your Majesty!" After his voice fell, the many generals in the tent naturally shouted.
Waving his hand, Zheng Fengdu's gaze fell on the sand table.
"Your Majesty, the strength of the enemy's First Legion on the Hurricane Pass is not too weak, and I think it is best to use some cannon fodder to consume their strength first, and then deliver a thunderous blow. "The president of this war is Zheng Shunyi, the commander of the Song Emperor's army, who was born as a domestic slave of Zheng Fengdu, so he is naturally a henchman among his henchmen.
As soon as Zheng Shunyi said this, the commanders of the other legions nodded their heads.
I shook my head at this henchman in my heart, I can't use it!
Zheng Fengdu raised his head and said, "Do you all think so?"
Although I don't know why His Majesty asked such a question, but wars are not usually fought like this, so almost all the generals nodded in agreement.
"Ha, my generals, do you think this war is an ordinary war! No, by no means, I tell you that this is a war to destroy the country! I want the entire Black Pupil Empire, and I want my empire to become the only empire of the Black Pupil Star!
Therefore, this war must be resolved quickly, and must not be protracted and plunged into a war of attrition. My generals, look, the Black Pupil Empire is indeed twilight. My army had already assembled and was about to attack, but they had only just mobilized three reinforcements.
Haha, the opportunity for this war is in your hands. It's to consume the strength of the defenders of Hurricane Pass according to what you said, and then sit back and wait for their reinforcements to arrive. Still, in one go, he directly inflicted a thunderous blow without giving them the slightest chance to delay.
How to fight, my generals, you can decide now!
Zheng Feng did not directly accuse the generals of their conservatism, but instead analyzed them and then let them decide for themselves.
"Ministers and other fools, Xie Majesty Xià teachings. ”
The generals were able to sit down to the lord of the army, and they still didn't understand the meaning of His Majesty, and hurriedly asked for a while.
"Your Majesty, the ministers are so stupid that they almost let down Your Majesty's painstaking efforts. Since it is a battle to destroy the country, then our army must quickly break through the hurricane pass, and with a thunderous sweep, it will go straight to the Black Pupil Imperial Capital, the Great Emperor City. Zheng Shunyi knew that he was wrong in what he had just said, so he naturally hurried to atone for his sins.
"Well, that's good. I also mean a quick victory, a final word. Although the Black Pupil Empire is weak, it is also a great power in the world. If nothing else, if they are mobilized and lightly pull up hundreds of millions of troops, it is also possible. We can't let our soldiers exchange their lives for their lives with the Black Pupil Empire! I can't take this kind of big battle in which one thousand enemies are killed and eight hundred are lost. So, generals, gather the elite of your army, this time, I want to make the Black Pupil Empire afraid! In the face of the might of the Fengdu army, all the blockers will be crushed into powder, so that the army of the Black Pupil Empire will be terrified when they see my military banner. Let's go! Attack tomorrow morning, and the first battle will be a decisive battle!" After speaking, Zheng Fengdu waved his hand, and the generals were all excited.
The first battle is a decisive battle, and the first battle will destroy the black pupils!
......
Both sides believe in civilization, and this kind of war in the age of cold weapons is far different from the war in the age of cold weapons on the earth.
The battle of millions of armies at every turn, if it was placed in the Middle Ages on the earth in the previous life, it would certainly not be easy to organize.
However, it is different here.
With powerful knights, mages, and warlocks, the logistics and liaison of the Great War are easy to organize. It doesn't take a lot of people to transport supplies, only a few logistics officers need to carry space rings, millions of ordnance and supplies, and they can move with the army. Connecting with each other, with mages and knights, is just a spell that can be transmitted to the lower legions. And the warlocks can also use guò various blessing spells to ensure the morale of the army.
Moreover, the cohesion of the ordinary legion with the knights as the core is extraordinary. Ordinary sergeants, as long as they are led by knights, can closely follow the knights to charge and fight.
Because of this, not only this Black Pupil Star, but also most of the star fields in the Honggu Universe can organize a major battle with millions of troops.
This is still a small scene, at the time of the God War, which side is not a big battle of hundreds of millions of armies. If we had relied solely on the level of logistics in the era of cold weapons, these armies would have collapsed long ago.
......
Emperor Fengdu's military orders were handed down, and the legions below quickly began to draw elite mages, warlocks, and knights.
The forward, composed of these backbones, quickly broke into the Hurricane Valley and rushed towards the gateway of the Black Pupil Empire, the Hurricane Pass.
The main army, composed of ordinary sergeants, surrounded the imperial camp of Emperor Fengdu and slowly followed.
"Report! The Fengdu army has reached thirty miles outside the pass!"
"Report! The Fengdu army has arrived ten miles outside the pass!"
"Report! The Fengdu army has reached five miles outside the pass, and the forward is advancing towards the pass non-stop!"
......
The flow price of the horse sent the intelligence of the Fengdu army to the hurricane pass, making the situation here more and more tense.
"How long will it take for the Eighth and Tenth Legions to enter the customs?" The Hurricane Pass Guards were the First Legion of the Black Pupil Empire, and the Legion Commander, Duke Hermin, asked with a sad face.
"Grand Duke, it will take another day to reach the pass! One of the officials under Hermione reported, and his expression was quite tense about the current situation.
"Whew, it's okay, it's okay. What about the Knights of the Templars?" Hermione was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but when he thought that three legions might not be able to stop the menacing Fengdu Empire, he asked for reinforcements from the temple.
"This ......" the official's mouth was bitter at the thought of the return of the contact sent to the Knights of the Templars.
"What's the matter? don't ramble, if you have something to say!" Hermione was startled by his look, and his intuition was not a good thing.
"Lord An Feng is still stationed a hundred miles away, and he hasn't advanced half a step!" Wiping his sweat, the official hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth.
"Hmm!?What the hell is he doing?, do you want to sit and watch the Hurricane Pass fall!?" Hermione jumped up in anger, eager to scold.
"Grand Duke, Lord An Feng said that the promotion fee allocated by the empire is not enough, the army has been cut off, and the Templar Knights are unwilling to move forward. ”
"Fart, fuck stinking shit! This greedy thing, when is it, and he can't get out of the eyes of money. Go, go and sue him, Lao Tzu has no money, he wants gold coins, and he doesn't have a single one. provoked Lao Tzu, so he opened the pass, Lao Tzu wanted to see if he could bear the Fengdu people!?" He Min's eyes turned red instantly, and if his subordinates returned, how could he not understand. This Nima's An Feng wants to make a fortune from the First Legion.
He was a duke and the commander of the First Legion, and his status was noble, and he could scold the Knights of the Templar with impunity. But he is a down-and-out royal child, but he really doesn't dare!
You are not all raccoon dogs, An Feng is dead asking for money, this Grand Duke Hermione is an iron rooster, alas, I really don't know what the imperial capital thinks. Putting these two on the front line of facing the Fengdu Empire is purely a rhythm that I don't want to have!
The official fell to his knees, deaf to Hermione's words, and was full of slander. At the same time, the battle of the Black Pupil Empire is really not optimistic. Alas, perhaps, the Boss Empire is going to die this time, but as a courtier of the Black Pupil Empire, since he has taken the money, he should do his best again!
"Grand Duke, my subordinates immediately sent someone to urge the Templar Knights again. However, there is one thing, please show it as soon as possible, otherwise, the subordinates are worried that if we can't wait for reinforcements to arrive, our hurricane pass will fall!"
Hearing this, Hermione was stunned for a moment, and then his face became even more ugly, he already knew what this guy wanted to say.
Sure enough, before he could speak, this guy opened his mouth and said: "Grand Duke, the First Legion has been peaceful for many years, and there is already a lot of shortage. In addition, the armament is not neat on weekdays, and usually relies on those old, weak, sick and temporarily recruited strong men to put on a shelf. This time, the Fengdu Empire has invaded in a big way, except for the knights and mages directly under the legion, the rest are all newcomers!"
"Enough, defend the country, there is no country to come to their home. When such a national disaster is at hand, the people of the empire should throw away their heads and spill their blood, regardless of death. Xinding is the same, he has seen a little blood, and he is not a veteran. Hermione didn't wait for him to finish before she interrupted and diverted the subject.
"Grand Duke, my subordinates risk death to report it, and ask the Grand Duke to pay the military salary and bounty in full. These newcomers are all forcibly recruited, and if they don't show kindness, I'm afraid that the disaster that I can't bear to see is in the present!
After saying that, he kowtowed to Hermione. In this way, it is already considered loyalty.
"Hmph, you're all a raccoon dog, and you all have the idea of your father's vault. The money of this duke should be used to reward the knights and the mages, those untouchables, don't think of taking a big son from this duke. Hermione looked like she had been stepped on by the tail, her face changed drastically, and she pointed at him and cursed.
"Get out!
Amid a burst of scolding and gloating gazes from the guards and servants of the Duke's Palace, the official stumbled out of the door.
"O god of the underworld! Don't open your eyes! This big empire is about to be completely finished!"
Just as he was lamenting to the sky, He Min's scolding could still be faintly heard behind him, "He Ruhui, you are a child of the royal family, and you actually ask for your father's money for those untouchables! Damn! bastard!"
"Haha, it should be destroyed! Such an empire, how can it not die!" He Ruhui sighed, then looked up to the sky and smiled, waved his sleeves, and strode towards home.
The sun was setting, shining on his lonely back, mottled with blood!
A picture of the death of the country!
