: Two thousand three hundred sixty-six Emperor's sword (5)

　　Istan Empire, Lubuxing Province, the gray sky is raining.
　　
The 8,000 highlander infantry of the Fourth Infantry Regiment of the Imperial Eastern Province were heading towards the provincial center thirty miles away. The infantry commander Lemur looked at the marching queue very satisfied, and each soldier was put on The iron armor, the arms in his hands shone cold, the sound of neatly queued footsteps, the shaking of the ground water splashes, the magnificent army in front of him, so Lemur did not dare to think before.
　　
Regarding weapons and equipment, Lemur is confident that he has reached the level of the regular army of the Istan Empire. If the Highlanders had such equipment 80 years ago, they would not be ruled by the Istan Empire. The empire expanded the province of the East. In addition, the wilderness tribes in the highlands are specially accepted, and a large number of weapons and armor have been allocated. Now the highland warriors in the eastern province have exceeded 40,000. With the support of the empire, the highlanders’ swallowing of the border of the Istan Empire is greatly accelerated. In one winter, nearly one province has been swallowed up. The highland tribes have won a great victory against the Istanians for the first time. In April, the troops of the Eastern Province have attacked the Lubuxing Province on the second line of the Istan Empire The rapid progress made all Highlanders feel happy. Decades of enslavement and slaughter. The highlanders’ hatred of the Istanians broke out at this moment. Blood is blood, teeth are teeth. City was destroyed, a large number of Istanians were killed by highlanders,
　　
　　 "Adult, in the first fifteen miles, is the capital of Luwuxing Province, Leonard"
　　
The front road guide pointedly pointed at the distance with a flattering face, and said that this is an Istanian, with some bald head and a big belly poop. At first glance, he is afraid of dead ghosts. Under the high-pressure violence policy of the highlanders, the total Some Istan nobles chose to succumb, and the guide in front of him gave all the property to the Highlanders and took the Highlanders to break through the towns,
　　
In front is a lake bay with ripples formed by the rain. Lemur rides on the horse and looks over the lake. The fog is not clear, but it does not matter. The strength of the Istan Empire since the defeat of Fissan Suddenly reduced, the central government decree has long been unable to be communicated to the localities, so that even the military power of the region has been lost. In the face of the attack of the highlanders, the fart hit by the fart was urinating
　　
　　 "Go ahead, I will win Leonard tonight!"
　　
Lemur raised his hand, frowning at the guide’s flattery, disgusted. I don’t know why, Governor Hajera would agree to the surrender of these maggot-like Istanians. According to the guide, Lu Wuxing The province is just a remote second-tier province of the Istan Empire. Most of the land is a saline-alkali wilderness that cannot be planted, so it has never been the center of gravity of the Istan Empire’s defense. The strength of 8,000 people can already be said to be in this area It was crushed, and the weak resistance in front of it proved this. The regional defense team of dozens of people and the town guard of hundreds of people encountered the most one time. There were only three hundred Istanian troops, some of them gritted their teeth and shouted. The Istanians who started the charge with their own army were cut off their limbs and nailed to the wooden piles. What other people can stop in front of them? It is the mission of the 4th Infantry Regiment to pass through the province of Wuxing, and join the main force of the Governor General to encircle the most important fortress in the second line, the Giorenado Fortress, and open the gate towards the hinterland of Istan.
　　
"Advance!" The cavalry was ordered to pass by the infantry marching queue, and the infantry queue began to speed up. At this moment, the front queue seemed to feel something. An officer raised his head and glanced at the horizon in front of him, frowning slightly. With a forehead, a large shadow appeared on the horizon in front of the flying white rain.
　　
　　 "Attention!" The former marching officer raised his hand carefully,
　　
　　 "What's the situation? The highland warriors stopped hesitatingly" Is it the Estan? "
　　
"I'm afraid, the Istanians are just a group of Ugly people." The officer rode on the horse and shouted to the rioting soldiers around him. There was a thunderous sound across from him. The shadow was rapidly expanding, the ground was shaking slightly, and a black cloud layer Paved the front, a dazzling weapon cold light began to flash in the distance, the cold directly penetrated the heart
　　
　　 "God!"
　　
The highland officer looked at the front, shivering violently, still shouting the array loudly in his mouth, and he could not see it. I saw a giant steel cavalry formation, which broke through the mist. The white rain silk came out in rows of majestic horses. The knight above was wearing a heavy armor. In his hand was a cavalry lance like a piercing wall. The black pressure quickly rolled. As the distance approached, the image of the knight above also It became clearer and clearer, the dim and cold metal light, the rifle that was lifted forward uniformly, and the mud splashed by thousands of horseshoes, flying all over the sky, the huge and neat steel rushed in an instant Exposing the sharp teeth that grieved blood,
　　
　　 "Attention, heavy cavalry!"
　　
The highland officer panicked his face and shouted as hard as he could, looking at the cold flash of steel, as if a dazzling band of light was rapidly pressing in his direction. In the rain, the white long streamer of the enemy cavalry helmet , Like a high-speed moving cloud, the speed is fast, close to one point every blink of an eye, neatly side by side cavalry lances, the white gas from the nostrils of the horse can be seen
　　
"Asshole, doesn't it mean that there is no army in the province of Luwuxing? What is the heavy cavalry in front of you?" Lemur's eyes bulged. The heavy cavalry is not an infantry. It can be sent to the battlefield with a weapon. The heavy cavalry needs to know Long-term training requires a very tacit cooperation. The queues advancing across from each other are uniform. This is simply not a short-term cavalry that can be put together in a hurry. He was ambushed himself. This was the first time Lemur thought of By the way, although the highland wildernesses are tough, they are also frightened by the sight in front of them. In the highland wilderness, at most you can see the light armored Istanian assault cavalry, where can you see such a terrible battlefield killer, queue There was confusion at once, and each one was pale and scared.
　　
"Run quickly, we will be dead!" Highland soldiers dropped their weapons one by one and ran out of the queue. They were soldiers pulled out by temporary training. The front was just a small fight. How can they rely on the number of people? Gained an advantage. Now when I encounter this kind of battleground crusher, it is just the momentum that has caused them to collapse. The officers shouted and stopped them: "No running! Whoever runs will kill someone!" "Stop! Command you to stop!" But there are more and more soldiers running away!
　　
"Urasdu! There was an incomprehensible shout from the opposite side. The front of the cavalry of the whole team, like a sword, slammed into the chaotic queue of the Highlanders. The huge impact immediately broke the Highlanders. It was like a rotating spiked flail, smashing the single bó's armor, the debris splashed, and the first hundreds of highland warriors who were in contact were directly involved in the galloping horses and turned into a mass of meat on the ground ,
　　
　　 "Urasdu!" ​​Thousands of lances that protruded neatly, like a river of light turned up under the weight of a white rain curtain, with horseshoes rumbling and the earth trembling. The Highlanders were completely crushed by the cavalry. These heavy cavalry who did not know where they came from, were madly hacked in the chaotic queue of the Highlanders. They passed by like a hurricane, bringing up a sky of blood stains, fighting big heavy flail Thousands of flying horseshoes that thundered and thundered, stepped on the corpses of the Highlanders. A fluffy blood exploded like fog. The Highland soldiers had completely collapsed. They cried and wailed, watching The corpse of the companion was like a remnant leaf that was rolled up in the storm. It was trampled down by the galloping horses and shattered. Whatever combat power disappeared, the queue collapsed immediately. The soldiers no longer ignored the order, and hurriedly dropped their weapons and turned around. Running away, the collapse of the water was like opening the gate, the crowd was turbulent, and there was a clamor everywhere "Escape! Escape!" "It's dead!" The highland soldiers fled around, stomping on each other, slamming, the weapon was lost all over the place, everywhere No discarded infantry squadron flag
　　
"What the is going on? What happened to me?" Lemur stopped his useless shouts pale, and at this time there was no more power to save the defeat, and groups of defeated soldiers ran from him. After that, the opponent's heavy cavalry rushed to kill, it was almost impossible to stop, only half an hour! Lemur’s eyes were dull, and he didn’t even have the resistance he expected. It was a unilateral slaughter.
　　
The distant mountains meander and the misty drizzle adds a bit of hazy summer. The imperial governor Hajera walked up the surrounded by several generals and looked at the familiar old castle, Giorenado Fortress, which was built in The Great Fortress, one hundred and fifty years ago, was the largest military node in the northern part of Istan. Although it has not experienced the baptism of war in a century, the fortress is still sturdy and formidable, and it is hard to shake for five miles. The city walls are large enough to hold 30,000 troops. The fortress stretches along the middle mountain range, winding and rising as the terrain rises, like the giant beast of the dragon and the dragon, and the vast plains under the tiger, the Istan Empire has been established here. A legionary
　　
　　 "Admiral Governor!" An officer on the was looking in the direction of the fortress, and when he saw Hajira, he stood in a row and saluted
　　
　　 "How about the fortress?"
　　
Hajera waved his hand. The dark shadows of the castle in the distance could be seen faintly. A towering main fortress was outside. The walls spread to the mountains on both sides, forming the most important defense core. The huge castle wall was gray and white. Constructed entirely of solid granite in the nearby mountains, up to 20 meters high, the outer circle is drawn by the nearby mountain springs, the walls are lined with sentries, wearing a red cross robe, weapons and shields are neatly placed on the edge of the city, although Istan Kyoto’s control over the place is reduced, but the invasion of the mountain people has brought several nearby provinces into a state of readiness. Joe Leonardo serves as a barrier to ensure his own safety, and each province does not dare to have any private places. , Put together a army of 40,000 people and kept on guard
　　
"The assault troops are in place!" The officer said with a respectful look. As a former of the Istanian Empire, he participated in the revision of the Istanian military defense many times. Hajira knew that this fortress had a path to go up, but during the day No, so Hajera set the attack time at night, night, and no starlight after rain,
　　
A woodland below the "Fortress", the branches were trampled by iron boots, and a sound of trivial leaves trampled from behind, breaking the calm of the surface of the woods, a highland warrior wearing black armor stepped on the undried Muddy wet soil, drilled from the bushes next to him, above him, the moonlight was blocked by the dense foliage above him, and a little white afterglow fell on the shoulder of the highland soldier,
　　
"Be careful!" Behind this highland soldier, more soldiers showed up. Thousands of highland archers in a row of black dots lined up in four teams, lifting from the dense woods towards the fortress. Bow
　　
　　 "Let's go!" Hayla nodded,
　　
　　The first archer captain standing on the left side of the team, the first to release the bowstring, the special armored arrow tears the air and flew out with a white cold light,
　　
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!" With the first sound, the dense bow string sounded continuously, and countless arrow clusters were like locust swarms suddenly bursting from the edge of the forest, crossing a rapid and beautiful white line . It quickly leaped to the height of the fortress. At five in the morning, several sentries squatting beside the fire were yawning, and there were other soldiers sitting opposite them. The blazing fire shone on their exhausted faces, and a sentry ugly tightened the woven linen collar with his hands, throwing a piece of firewood into the fire,
　　
"What sound?" A sentinel heard something vaguely. He stood up curiously and looked up at the sky. A white light hit the sentry. The sentinel flew backward like a collision, and a thick arrow cluster shot through. He flew out of the chest with continuous casters, nailed firmly to the wooden post at the back, the sentry was covered with blood, his hands were struggling to hold the tail of the arrow that had penetrated the throat, and wanted to pull it out, The painful complexion turned red. There was a gurgling unpleasant sound in the chest that was shot through, like a pile of rubble rubbing, a white arrow tail trembling in his throat. Let his last effort stop abruptly, hands and feet hang down, his feet hanging from the ground
　　
"Enemy...enemy..." Several other sentries were stunned by the sudden situation, their voices had not been fully pronounced, just like the Void Blades struck in the cold night, countless arrow clusters at the same moment, rushing from the air The fall of the Istanians shouted abruptly, and everyone only felt that a dense cold star shone on the eyes, and the scary star was like a star burst from the darkness, with a deadly Breath, shot through the body with incredible speed,
　　
　　 "Start, attack!" Hajera's voice resounded through the night sky,
　　
　　 "Enemy attack!" At the same time, a formidable and tragic cries also sounded on the fortress wall. On the frontal attack line, the steel shield shone with silver light at night, like a layer of sparkling river. The dense crowd of people squirmed like ants, and the Istanian army on the city wall blew the trumpet panic and hurried out, "Dang! Dang! Dang!" The alarm bell ringing through the morning was like a frightened woman , From the lookout tower of the city wall.
　　
The golden sunset outside the carriage. On the road from Dijing to the south, Tirnarant returned his gaze from the caravan of the caravan that had just passed the wrong car, and looked dignified at someone who had just woken up from sleep. , Ning Sheng asked, "Don't the southern negotiations come two months later? Are you going to the south a little early? If you let the other party know that the Falcon Empire emperor is so calm, it is not a good thing for the negotiations!"
　　
　　 "You also know about the negotiations in the South?"
　　
The corner of the fat man's mouth grinned slightly~EbookFREE.me~ Organized his clothes and looked at the scenery outside. It was already the moment when the sun was setting. The wheel palace he was riding was a black double-layer carriage, which was shiny with oil It is made of oak and gold-rimmed metal. It is dragged by four horses. The spacious appearance makes the caravans passing by on the road look frequently. However, most of the signs of the Imperial Ministry of Interior on the carriage doors shrugged their shoulders. This should be an imperial administrative officer who has just been ordered to go south. Judging from the quality of the carriage, the status is not very high, because the cavalry without guards will not be very low, because the door of the car must have the tattoo of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The chapter also needs at least the district-level administrative officer
　　
"I heard a little bit. "Tirnaran nodded characteristically and snorted heavily on the nose." If I guessed right, transfer me to Lisbon. It should also be related to the negotiation! I said in advance, active trade This kind of thing is not what I am good at. When Lisbon has a problem, it can't be counted as my negligence. Otherwise, you can order me to cancel it now!"
　　
　　"Negotiations have always been a game for both sides to win chips. Whoever holds more chips naturally wins. The opponent sets the time two months later because the opponent has already selected the chips!"
　　
The fat man looked at the ground illuminated by the golden sunset outside the window, yawned heavily, leaned on the leather sofa, and said with a condensed voice, "I hurriedly went south quietly because I didn't know where the other party pressed the chips. But I believe that the other party has already started to act"╰☆╮╰☆╮ (to be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets.
