1309 The Eastward Battle (5)

"This... is a private recommendation." Presnafa was seen by young people and said with some embarrassment, "If it was a family recommendation, it would not be my turn. The family had not reached the point of speaking for a barbarian, but it was just a private friendship." Oh, is it that you have a connection with the Falcon Kingdom? "The young man's eyes lit up and asked calmly. To be honest, the Falcon Kingdom is my big customer. Two-thirds of the overseas trade in the entire Northwest Sea comes from the Falcon Kingdom. "Presnafa raised his eyebrows and said without any comment. "Just the first two months, the trade volume in the Northwest Sea reached 400,000 gold coins." This was a one-year transaction volume. You also know that if the foreign brigade personnel like us have the opportunity to return to Kyoto, they must show enough ability. If the Falcon Kingdom becomes the consul of the Ruodu area, the trade volume will inevitably be expanded.

"In 7 months, it will be the annual family assessment time. If everything goes well, I should be enough to transfer back to Kyoto. Otherwise, I will have to wait until three years later. Who knows what happened at that time?"

"That's the case." The young man nodded with emotion. He was a wealthy family in Kyoto, and no one knew who was in the background. Don't think that Presnafa is the younger brother of the Finance Minister Prescott. However, as a fiercely competitive family, unless you are lucky enough to be the heir to the family's establishment, you will be sent to the family's fief after the age of 24.

Only one assessment in three years can be qualified to be transferred back. There are countless people who die in other places. Of course, there are also examples of being transferred to the local area after returning. Just like Julilfford, who was responsible for the Northwest Guide, left Kyoto again and was already the deputy commander of the Fifth Legion of the Empire, representing the family's interests in the empire and becoming a real power person who actually controls one side. In just two years, he took over as the former and became the commander of the Fifth Legion, which was naturally the result of the family's support.

"Returning to Kyoto is the dream of a wealthy family like us. Next year, I will also transfer to the outer sealed territory." The young man sighed deeply, his eyes swept across the sky in the distance, and said, "But your approach is afraid that there are some problems. According to the regulations of the empire. In addition to the recommendation of the Kyoto family, the regional consul must also have enough prestige in the region. As a regional force, the Falcon Kingdom has little prestige. Once it is recommended, I am afraid that the entire northwest coast will express a strong voice of dissatisfaction, which will also affect the family's prestige in the northwest region, so I promise you this proposal."

"The northwest coast is now full of winds. The war is about to break out. I believe there will be a result." Presnafa smiled disconcertedly. He said to himself with a joking look.

"Very? How much? You are very confident in the final victory of the Falcon Kingdom." The young man looked at Presnava with surprise, not knowing where the other party's strong confidence came from. "Nothing, it's just a kind of intuition."

Presnafa turned around from the front of the house and said, "From the speed of the Normandy people's defeat, the Falcon Army's combat power is very extraordinary, and what interests me the most is that the opponent's combat weapons are also something we have never encountered before, so there should be surprises."

The sunlight had just shone down from the clouds. The milky white light mist enveloped the earth. Under the breeze, the light mist slowly dissipated. It gradually rose from the ground and finally disappeared. The world suddenly became much more refreshing and clear.

On the flat ground in the northwest of Normandy, you can see the rolling hills a few thousand meters away on the clear view. On the edge of the connection between heaven and earth, you can also see the rolling clouds vaguely, forming a strong contrast with the calm and peaceful expression here.

Marshal Ushuaia, the Marquis of Dunkiel, rode on a war horse, with a proud face with obvious arrogance, and his eyes were observing the flat area ahead, the clouds in the front, with great visibility. Even with the naked eye, he could see the lonely castle of Schershag in the distance. Since entering the border of Normandy, he has not seen any living person. Now the same is true. Near the castle of Schershag, the Marquis of Ushuaia has not seen any signs of living person.

"Didn't it mean there is a Falcon Army here? Where are the people?" The Marquis of Ushuaia turned his head and asked dissatisfiedly to a general who led the team behind him. "It should be in the castle in front." The general who led the army expressed his ugly face. His name was Benisav, with a burly and powerful appearance, big and eight thick, and a thick armor like a steel. In the Duchy of Dunkire, he was a brave general known for his bravery. This time he was fully responsible for the war in the Normandy area. Under the urge of the Marshal of the Principality, he could only say that the Falcon Army was born timid and retreated immediately after meeting him several times. Out of caution, the army adopted a slowly advancing strategy and crossed the border for 4 days. Until now, he didn't know what the Falcon Army looked like.

"The enemy hasn't seen it, you are still here to be slow." Regarding the general's explanation, the Marshal of the Principal of the Principal, Marshal Ushuaia, looked pale with anger and said angrily, "You should know that the troops sent by the Principal this time account for one-quarter of the Principal's strength. The Grand Duke hopes that the overlord of the Northwest Coast can be established in one fell swoop with this battle. You have only advanced 10 miles a day, and so far, they have only occupied 8 border villages. Is this the explanation you gave to the Grand Duke?"

However, the two did not know that at this moment, in the distance where they could not see, there were also a pair of eyes. They looked at the road in the distance from the look glass. Unlike the angry mood of the Marquis of Ushuaia, the person's eyes were full of coldness.

This person is Cleveland, the commander of the Fifth Flag of the Southern Army who is responsible for the defense of this area.

The Duchy of Dunkire and the Principal of Romana jointly attacked the northwest of Normandy. Statunko ordered the main force of the Southern Army to shrink the front line, and with the core of the Irru Fortress, the three front lines were divided into Shersha Castles, Ferro and Poul Fort, three areas were arranged along the line of the three main battle flag regiments, and the Cavalry Flag regiments remained in Irru, used as mobile forces. Among them, the Fifth Flag Commander Cleveland was responsible for the Shersha Castle on the front of the Dunkires.

The Fifth Banner Regiment of Cleveland has a force of about 8,000, and the Dunkiers is facing the main force of the Dunkiers. With a huge gap in force, Cleveland ordered all the external troops to be taken back.

But the Dunker's advance was so slow that on the fourth day, Cleveland saw the late arrival of the Duncher army from the lookout glass.

"Order everyone to prepare." Cleveland put down the look glass in his hand and whispered the order.

In the distance, a team of heavily armored cavalry from the Dunkier army stopped 200 meters in front of the Shersha Castle. 20,000 Dunkier soldiers began to line up, with spears and infantry shields densely lined up outside the fort. Facing the empty Shersha Castle, the other party was very careful to form a tentative formation, "Woooooo"

With a long war horn, the two infantry teams left the large army and began to advance. The speed of the rushing was very slow. They entered the range of 50 meters before they started to accelerate with great strides. Finally, they began to rush toward the barrier that no one had. The army outside the castle began to move forward. It was obvious that they had completed the battle against the Shersha Castle. The last one entered was the armored cavalry that arrived first. "What a group of idiots."

Cleveland, who saw this scene in the distance, showed a sneer on his lips.

His arm slowly raised, and the cavalry lined up behind him dragged a large number of branches and ran in the wilderness. The branches were running at high speed, covering the sky, rolling with the wind, just like a sand city storm hitting at the end of the horizon. "There is a situation."

The Dunkier army, which had just entered Schalsha Castle, quickly filled the castle's head and put on a stance to prepare for it.

In the smoke rising from the sky in the distance, teams of black armored infantry slowly emerged from the dust and sand, heavy shields and spears, especially under the dust of the sky, the black armor of these mysterious troops brought people a cold and bitter solemnity, "Is this the Falcon Army that defeated the Normandians?" The Marquis of the Principality, Marquis Ushuaia, stood on the observation deck of the castle, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes. "The person came, and immediately sent two thousand-person teams out of the city to find out the situation of the other party."

At the critical moment, the Marshal of the Principal State, Marshal Ushuaia, simply issued an order directly. The other party's pretended to be mysterious made him feel something was wrong. However, before his words had fallen, the number of red light spots had risen from behind the dust in the distance like a meteor, "Oh my god. What is that?"

In everyone's stunned, a huge castle of flames burning, in everyone's sight, suddenly broke through the blockade of smoke and dust like a beast, with howling and long black smoke, violently hit the wall of the castle, and the fire splashed everywhere. The huge explosion that shocked everyone's ears roared. As a blow, a ring impact circle formed, the dozen Dunker soldiers who were caught off guard turned into firemen with flames. The shrill screams resounded on the top of the city. The tragic Marshal Ushuaia, who was a nobleman, was so scared that he sat on the ground. "Note, cast stones"

Before the horror sound fell, the number of red dots had turned into a meteor-like castle. Rumbled, a fireball hit the castle's arrow tower, and a huge explosion sounded throughout the castle. The huge vibration made the foundation of the castle shake. A hundred meters long city wall actually had huge cracks, and then collapsed. The Dunker soldiers on it were like drowned dots.

Hundreds of crude oil buried in the castle arrow tower were ignited by the cracked flames at almost the same time. The huge power of the explosion caused the stones inside the castle to fly everywhere, and the stones in Gucheng were also cracked into pieces by this huge power.

The soft plain foundation cracked from the bottom of the castle wall due to the explosion at a distance, and then the big collapse of the city wall was quickly created.

The city wall was pushed down like a pile of building blocks, and the 20,000 Dunker troops ran wildly inside.

Several soldiers jumped out of the collapsed area, but were smashed into minced meat by huge stones. Even if they were not dead, they were buried in dust and gravel. "The whole army advanced"

Cleveland issued an order with his expression on his face. In the dust in the sky, the black military formation showed its hideous teeth, and several clusters of arrows burst out from the dust like locusts.
