1893 War of the Princesses (3)
Marcos Marcos, the Marshal of the Gangfei Empire, stood at the gate of Besuka City in a marshal uniform, and more than a dozen Gangfei ministers stood behind him, looking into the distance with solemn expressions, they received a report that the Falcon Empire's princess's car was less than a mile, and the Falcon Princess was the emperor of the Falcon Empire on behalf of her, so the Gangfei Empire also put on the highest standard, except for the emperor who did not appear, more than a dozen people led by Marcos were all members of the latest power structure of the Gangfei Empire
In the distance, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves, like a muffled thunder rolling through the sky, and a slowly rising black line appeared at the intersection ahead, like a black and dark band of light, and the thunderous hoofs came, and the earth shook slightly. The black cavalry group began to slow down, the neatly arranged horse heads were like black clouds, like a cloud banner, the cavalry's hideous red tasseled helmets, the white gas spewed out of the horse's nostrils, the red helmets fluttered in one direction in the wind, like a flame on the black tide, and the long-handled spear in his hand flashed in the distance with a chilling cold light, this
"Woo" The loud trombone sound resounded in the sky, and the black-armored cavalry that was still side by side just now spread out to both sides like a tide, revealing a black carriage in the middle that was slowly moving forward, as the carriage moved forward, the black cavalry was calm, like a wave galloping down from the back of the carriage, and the weapon slots on the crosses of the war horses were inserted with cavalry bayonet guns and assault crossbows of the Falcon Empire's Megatron Continent, and a team would stop every ten meters, and it was dragged from a distance to the city gate of Besuka,
The black carriage slowly passed through the passage of cavalry
"It's the Falcon Empire's princess's chariot!" someone in the minister whispered nervously, "Marcos took a deep breath, his hand straightened his collar, everyone became nervous, and the pressure came to his face, "Hehe, this black carriage is like an upstart carriage compared to the Stray Sea Country that opened to the gate of Guò just now. Personally, I think that this black carriage really represents the atmosphere of a powerful country, and the guards are also the personal guards of the Falcon Emperor, the guards of the Falcon Empire!"
One of the ministers teased to lighten the mood, but he found that the expected laughter did not appear, "What's the matter?"
The minister's face was stunned, only to find that the nearby generals, looking at these approaching black cavalry with blazing eyes, their faces were heavy as if they were about to drip water, and they had not fought with the Falcon Empire. I don't know how terrible these black deaths are on the battlefield, let alone the name of the Falcon Empire's guards, which are completely tired from the enemy's heads and bones, and in the enemy's gorgeousness, this is a group of real professional soldiers, who are not afraid of death, kill people like hemp, and the biggest feature is loyalty and fearlessness, for such an enemy. The generals had complex eyes, admiration, hatred, and fear. Envy...... Their subordinates, colleagues, friends, and even relatives have records of dying at the hands of the Guardsmen. Even Imperial Marshal Marcos's eyes were bloodshot, and his fingers were clenched together, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry!" The minister felt that he might have said something he shouldn't have spoken, and his face turned pale, since the 1.12 incident, the military power has risen rapidly, even with his current status, he is not able to ignore Cheng Dù, who offended the military, "This joke is not funny, I hope there will be no next time!" said a non-military boss. The Falcon Empire's Guards Cavalry Armor O'Barro's name has long been widely spread with the decisive war between the Falcon Empire and the Northern Gaul Empire, and it may not be long before we have to face the elite of this elite, who do you say we are still laughing at now!" "Could it be that the Falcon Imperial Guards Cavalry is really so terrifying!" The minister looked stunned, "It's not just terrible!" The corners of the military boss's mouth twitched. You only know that the Iraqis are overwhelming us in the north, but how do you guys know that at the same time that the Iraqis attacked our Kyoto, in the north, the Falcon Empire in the north forced down 200,000 Gallic Kyoto defenders in one fell swoop, compared to the victory of the Istanbul people who finally broke through the defenders of less than 20,000 people, it is just a small drop. "Then the northern conflict broke out, the 110,000 Iranian army marched north vigorously, in the sparse forest area, confronted the 200,000 army of the Falcon Empire, and even did not dare to fight, the invincible Iraqi army directly chose to retreat south, and was followed by the other party like a lost dog for fifty miles along the way before stopping, and the panicked combat power expressed by the Falcon Empire's army has reached the point where the entire Obarro is terrified."
The voice of the military boss paused, and he sighed" In the intelligence transmitted to various countries, it is unanimously believed that in the Falcon Army sequence, the Imperial Central Army is the most elite, and the Falcon Emperor's personal guard cavalry is the most powerful, once an intelligence officer wrote in the report that the Falcon Empire's combat power comparison, a Central Army Falcon Cavalry is equal to three Falcon Empire infantry combat power, but the combat power of a Guards Cavalry is equivalent to the combat power of three Falcon Imperial cavalry of the Central Army, which is the most elite force of the Falcon Empire, and it is also the Falcon Emperor's personal guard.
The Falcon Empire has a regular army of 400,000, while the number of the Guards Legion has been kept below 20,000, and the financial and material resources it consumes are not inferior to a large army of 100,000 people.
"Because the Guards always go hand in hand with death, and their outfits are black armor and red cloaks, they are called "black red-haired crows!" by the Gauls, and if they see the Guards cavalry of the Falcon Empire on the battlefield, the idea of the Gallic army is that they will either be ready to fight to the death, or withdraw immediately!"
This report has been used by many Central European Barrow countries as a reference for understanding the powerful monsters of the north.
It is precisely because of knowing the special significance of the Guards Legion in front of him,
So even Marcos and Gangfei's generals couldn't help but feel nervous, and they waited at the city gate, one was to see the rumored top legion of the Falcon Empire, and the other was to confirm the status of this Falcon Empire princess in the Falcon Empire.
The result is obvious, the Falcon Empire liaison officer is not lying, this woman is really extraordinary in the Falcon Emperor's heart, three thousand Guards Legion, even if it is the first Putao War, the Praetorian Guard used by the Falcon Empire is only five thousand, if you convert it according to the combat power in that report. Such combat power is almost equal to the combat power of 15,000 regular infantry,
This princess is simply moving with the combat power of a complete army!
Marcos and the ministers felt that their scalps were faintly shining, and there were 60,000 regular troops behind this woman, as long as there was a little problem with this woman,
Dare to say that without the Falcon Empire's 200,000 troops stationed in the southwest region going south, these 3,000 Falcon guards are enough to make Gangfei chaotic for a while, not to mention that the 60,000 Falcon Empire troops staying in Baruta will immediately pounce quickly, and they will not even give themselves a chance to explain, and directly launch a brutal revenge on the entire southern Gangfei!"
"It's so hot!"
Beads of sweat were already oozing from Marcos's head. He turned around sternly, his gaze swept over everyone's faces, and said in a cold and aggravated tone, "Now that you have all seen it, I hope that all parties must exercise restraint during this time! Otherwise, we will drag everyone to death together!" "Yes, yes, we know!"
The ministers nodded one by one with ugly faces, and the generals blushed with embarrassment, what a humiliation. The Falcon Empire is completely crushing Gangfei by force this time! The basis of the inter-state conversation is still strength.
Although the generals were unwilling, there was no way, they had just lost their century-old foundation. There was no way to fight a war, although there were still 200,000 troops in the south, and the integration of power from top to bottom was also achieved. But after all, the time is too short, only ten days. What effect can it be, the troops in the south have not yet been assembled, and the unexpected mistake of the Falcon Empire is planted. It even annoyed the always fierce Falcon Empire, and without declaring war, the army advanced hundreds of miles into the territory of Gangfei in one day and one night, forcing Gangfei people to take the initiative to negotiate
This time she said that she was here to attend the funeral, and this imperial princess was more like the master of King's Landing, so she accompanied her with three thousand imperial guard cavalry, and the Gangfei Empire didn't even have the courage to raise an objection. Tomorrow, this matter will become a laughing stock!" The generals looked at each other and sighed secretly,
At this time, an attendant came up from the stairs at the entrance of the city and said in Marcos's ear, "My lord, the camp is stationed outside the city as soon as the other party has just made a request."
"Stationed outside the city?"
Marcos was unexpectedly stunned for a moment, his eyes narrowed into a line, and he took a deep breath of cold air, this woman is not simple,
The high-profile arrival with three thousand guards cavalry undoubtedly shows the incomparable strength of the Falcon Empire, but at the same time only requires the cavalry to be stationed outside the city, which can not only allow the Gangfei Empire to ensure its safety in the city, but also express the goodwill of the Falcon Empire to Gangfei and other countries.
There is really no reason to refuse, Marcos suppressed the ups and downs in his heart. With a wave of his hand, "Grant his request!"
The Falcon Imperial Guards outside the city quickly set up camp, and rows of military tents were erected.
Turit Colin got out of the carriage with the support of the middle-aged noblewoman, and looked at the city wall of Besuka not far in front of her with complicated eyes, according to the eyeliner information received on the road, her second sister, the arrogant first lady of the Sea of Strand, entered Besuka two hours before her arrival, tomorrow is the funeral, tonight, should be the best time to launch the plan!"
"Former sisters, now enemies ......" Turit Colin looked at the city wall from afar, the poignant corners of her mouth smiled bitterly, and said to the middle-aged lady beside her, "Get ready, tonight, there may be a war where you can't see the smoke of gunpowder!"
"Is Miss Three saying that Miss Two will choose to make trouble tonight......?"
The middle-aged lady made a gesture with a slightly cold face, she was the butler of the Turit family, this time it was the first time that the Falcon Empire joined forces with the Turit family, and it was a golden opportunity that the Turit family had been looking forward to for many years, even if it was to use all the hidden power of the family.
"No, in fact, I would rather use the right reasons to convince the Inland Sea countries than to use the influence of the family!"
Tritt Colin waved his hand and shook his head, "And these countries are not the leading figures, even if they agree, it won't play any role, so I just need them to pass the word back, the Falcon Empire is the one who can bring them enough wealth, and it is actually the Strand Sea Country that dominates the inland sea market!"
"It's just going to be difficult. According to the character of the second young lady, she will definitely use her status as a shrine maiden to guide those countries in the inland sea."
The middle-aged lady Long looked a little anxious, and said with a solemn expression, "Although I shouldn't say it, but since the family is called the Shadow of Obarro, it naturally has its reasons, the heritage of the top continental giants for hundreds of years, under the intertwined roots is countless latent forces, Third Miss, do you know what kind of situation you are facing? Although I don't know what the head of the family agreed to, it is true that with the assistance of the family, the second miss has persuaded those inland sea countries to reach a consensus against the Falcon Empire, and they have already believed that the second miss is the Turit witch of this generation. Coupled with the support of the connections cultivated by the family for many years, it is enough to affect the attitude of many countries, this war, just this point, Third Miss, you are in an extremely unfair position!"
"Even if it's a real shrine maiden, she doesn't have the magic power to send people to death! The family helped the second sister gain the trust of these countries. But he also handed over that crucial account book to me! Now that he has sent you to me, in fact, if you think about it, you can see that my mother is retreating and not agreeing to the request of the second sister. How could it be possible to go deep into her interior and get such a detailed ledger!" Turit Colin smiled disapprovingly, and said, "Don't worry, I have a hunch that I won't lose tonight!" We'll use it tonight!" Turit Colin thanked Ronze's steward for his persuasion, "There should be no problem, but this time I brought seven scribes from the family. It's specially prepared for this matter!" The middle-aged noble lady Takashi found that persuasion was useless, and since she had decided to go to war, she would enter the preparation node, "Now it can only be like this, I hope to let these inland sea countries know who the real enemy is!"
An hour later, a squadron leader walked into the tent with a letter with a strange expression: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, we have just received an invitation letter from the Sea of Strand Sea Kingdom! The Sea of Strange Sea Kingdom is holding a banquet in the city at eight o'clock tonight, and Her Royal Highness the Princess is specially invited to participate" "The banquet of the Sea of Strange Sea?
The carriage passed through the dark night, the sky was already dark, and entered the dark stone street of the curfew, with pine resin torches hanging on the wall, with a pine fragrance, making a "crackling" burning sound, like rows of indicator lights, in the flickering firelight, the richly decorated carriages turned out of all corners of the street like magic, as if pulled by an invisible hand into the street ahead,
A crisp sound of horses' hooves sounded from the fork in the street ahead, and a group of heavily armed black cavalry turned out from the corner of the street, and these black cavalry were tall and unusual war horses under their crotches, which were on average significantly taller than the noble carriages attending the banquet,
The scaly chain mail on his body glistened in the firelight of the night, and the wind blew, making a sound of metal colliding,
"It's the cavalry of the Falcon Empire!"
The traffic to the banquet slowed down almost at the same time, and many people looked up and down at this team of uninvited guests with surprised eyes, the calm and neat upright figure of the Falcon Imperial cavalry, with an inexplicable sense of pressure, this feeling can only be found in the soldiers who really went to the battlefield,
In the middle of this group of cavalry was a carriage that looked extremely ordinary, without any grand decorations, not even the most basic gilded borders, but the white thorn flower on the door that could be clearly identified in the dark night, as if the king himself was there, was enough to make all the carriages in the whole street consciously get out of the way
"Quick, get out of the way!" a representative of an inland sea country attending the banquet hurriedly shouted to the driver in front
"Quick, stop, let the other go first!" someone shouted at the carriage, and the orderly carriage in front of it was in disarray, until it stared at the carriage with envy and jealousy.
The banquet of the sea country of Strand was held in a huge villa area rented temporarily, the representatives of various countries wearing gorgeous costumes, the noblewomen dressed up with flowers and branches, the flow of people shuttled, coquettish laughter, in the brightly lit hall mansion, the passionate and agile waltz and the beautiful figures of the ladies complemented each other, on the stage above, several bewitching figures, snow-white skin of the sea lady in the hall with unique music, flexible rotation of the pleasing waist, convex front and concave superb figure, the golden lock plate on the body with the waist swing to make a heart-warming sound, its clothes are bold and the dance posture is enchanting, many people salivate,
The dignitaries in gorgeous costumes shuttled back and forth like fish, some people heartily scurried around with wine glasses, and some people whispered the inside story of the so-called 1.12 incident, in exchange for the ladies covered their mouths and shouted in surprise.
Of course, it's more about the discussion of the first lady of the Sea of Strand, who will be on the scene tonight. The beautiful first lady of the Turit family, the outstanding diplomat who united the entire inland sea countries against the hegemony of the Falcon Empire,
Suddenly, all the voices fell silent, and the faces of the representatives of the Inland Sea countries, who had been talking loudly just now, suddenly became ugly
"Ma'am, the goal has arrived!"
The maid in a long white dress carefully pushed open the door in front of her and reported to the woman who was wearing makeup inside (to be continued......)
