On the Qingfeng Plain, there is no such thing as air pollution, and there are very few clouds in the night sky, so the sky is dotted with stars, making the whole sky look extremely beautiful. The stars are bright, just in time for a small team to fly sneakily towards the black robes of the Silver Wolf Legion People were reflected clearly. The camp of the Silver Wolf Legion was pitch black. Except for a faint light in one tent, the rest of the place seemed like a ghost.
In the camps of the other three lords' private legions, there were bright lights, loud shouts, fights, and occasionally women's shrill laughter. The whole place was smoky and chaotic. Even the sentries were drooling. Looking at the camp, I can't help but feel like standing guard.
Those men in black robes were suspended above the camp of the Silver Wolf Legion, with all kinds of brilliance emerging from their hands. This time they did not retain their magic power, and all activated their most powerful magic. But just before their magic When it was about to be completed, with an old command, several powerful crossbow arrows roared out. The pure steel crossbow arrows, which were two meters long and as thick as a thumb, smashed the bodies of a dozen high-level mages like eggshells. After being pierced, with a shrill howl, the mages fell from the sky. The backlash of magic power caused their bodies to expand instantly, and they exploded like several cannonballs.
A light yellow light curtain appeared outside the exploding bodies of those mages, isolating the huge noise they made and limiting the power of their explosions to a distance of less than two meters.
Outside the camp, a surprised sound came from very far away, followed immediately by a strong voice: "What a Silver Wolf Legion, Balu, you are worthy of being one of the five beast generals of the Imperial Capital..." .Assault." With the last shout, the sound of 'rumbling' horse hooves sounded from all directions, followed by fireballs, waterballs, and lightballs all over the sky, densely hitting the Silver Wolf Legion's camp.
The Silver Wolf Legion's camp was suddenly brightly lit, while the camps of the three private army legions suddenly turned dark. Then, a hazy yellow light curtain appeared over the entire camp, facing the dense magic. Bombs. In the roar of the explosion, the light curtain was blown to pieces, but all those magic bullets were intercepted. The roaring Smart heavy cavalry just approached the camp, but found that they were greeted by countless crossbow arrows. With bows and arrows, their horses fell down one after another. Wearing heavy armor, they fell to the ground in embarrassment, and were immediately trampled into meat patties by the horses of their companions behind them.
Another burst of magic bullets came over, and another yellow light curtain greeted them. After three times of this, more than thirty high-level mages from the Smart Empire flew into the sky under the leadership of Carlin, far away. floating in a place beyond the reach of crossbows. Carlin shouted loudly: "Which old immortal mage from your Vante Empire is in the camp? Come out here and let me see, is it Gibbs or Dalgio? No, you guys The Silver Wolf Legion still can't equip such a high-level mage, right? Come out and let me take a look."
Meco floated up to the sky, dripping with sweat, and looked at Carlin with a gray face. After staring at Carlin, he nodded and said, "Are you Carlin?"
Karin proudly took off his cloak, revealing his mage badge, and said with a smile: "Oh, it turns out to be Meko. I have seen your portrait. You can be considered a top mage in the Vante Empire." , But, compared to us, your so-so virtues are just a living... Humph, no wonder our magic bullets are useless, your strength is probably equivalent to the level of the fourth level of our empire's Diamond Dragon, you can do it If we dominate and purely defend, it will be difficult to break your barrier."
Carlin muttered a few words, and his voice drifted with the wind, but Meco almost became angry to death. What Carlin muttered was: "This old man looks pretty, but I wonder what his daughter looks like? What if she is very beautiful?"
If she's pretty, she can be her lover."
Meko muttered a few words angrily, then raised his hand and threw a hundred-meter long water dragon. Karin laughed, and an even bigger fire dragon came out of his hand. The two giant dragons collided in the air and exploded.
After catching a large group of Smart Empire cavalry below, Kalin smiled evilly and led the mages back. He laughed loudly and said: "Balu, Balu, you are so insidious, using the bows and arrows of those miscellaneous private armies.
You want to use your hands to deal with me? It’s a pity that I’m not fooled, sir, I’m wearing chain mail.”
Meko's expression changed. How could a mage wearing heavy chainmail still float in the air? This Kalin's magic power is too amazing. Whose disciple is he? In the wizarding world, Kalin has never been noticed.
This young man.
Two teams of more than 500 private archers sneaked towards Carlin under the cover of night, but Carlin and the others had already flown away quickly, followed closely by more than a thousand Smart infantrymen wearing light iron armor.
They surrounded them and chopped them into pieces. However, these archers fought back before their death and knocked down more than two hundred Smart Empire soldiers. Their strong fighting power left the Smart soldiers speechless.
The strong voice gave the order, and the heavy cavalry, which had lost more than 2,000 people, immediately turned their horses and retreated. The heavy infantry and light infantry, under the cover of archers and magicians, formed a regular formation.
The impact formation rushed towards the main camp of the Silver Wolf Legion. On the two wings of the Silver Wolf Legion, large groups of three private army troops took advantage of the night and prepared to outflank their retreat like pliers, but they retreated back.
The heavy cavalry was already watching them from a distance.
The officers of the three private army regiments gave the order and they stood still. Fighting the impact of the heavy cavalry head-on on the plain? That was a joke. There was no need for them to waste their troops here. Anyway,
Considering that he had held back the opponent's more than 10,000 heavy cavalry, Balu wouldn't blame them.
At the beginning, there were tents with lights in the entire Silver Wolf Legion camp where Lei was temporarily placed. Lei slept for a whole day and had fully recovered. When the mages flew over to attack him, he was
He was gnawing on barbecue and drinking porridge. Several Balu soldiers looked at him and sighed in their hearts: "What a big young man. What a pity. This is the first time I went to the battlefield. Hehe.
, it looks like he is disabled... So many friends died in front of him, maybe he will be scared when seeing blood in the future, so how can he still fight?"
When the sound of crossbow arrows sounded, the soldiers rushed out of the tent like the wind, while Lei listened blankly to the unique "dong-dong" sound when the crossbow arrows were fired, not knowing what happened. But when the sky
When a medium-intensity explosion sounded, Lei's eyes went straight. The same explosion was the one that knocked him out that night. When he woke up, everyone was dead.
Bit and the others were all dead.
Lei shrank into a ball and began to tremble all over. Gradually, he also let out a sharp scream, but the noise outside was already loud, and no one noticed Lei's noise at all.
Outside, the Silver Wolf Legion actually opened the wooden gate of the camp. Two thousand soldiers formed an attack formation and faced about 20,000 Emperor Smart soldiers. Balu was as dry as a dead tree, and a hard voice sounded. : "Haha, Sarin, is it you? Do you still remember how you were defeated by me in the imperial capital? You are not as good as me, and your soldiers are not as good as mine. Who do you think you are... You are very powerful in battle. , However, fighting depends on strength, who do you think you are?"
Sha Lin was speechless for a moment to retort, and the courage of those Emperor Smart who charged forward suddenly weakened by seven points.
Balu laughed dryly: "Salin, hehe, you have become a famous general in the world and guarded the 'Iron-Blooded Battle Castle'. But if you really talk about strength, you are the least powerful person in the Vante Empire." Who do you think you are when you are ranked outside the top twenty? No wonder you want to betray the empire. When you get to the Smart Empire, you will be the first general in the empire, huh?" Balu's last 'um' was deliberately provocative. He made a high-pitched voice and mocked Salin very much.
Shalin roared angrily, with a voice mixed with powerful fighting spirit: "Charge, what are you looking at? Heavy cavalry, charge, scatter the infantry on both wings, and rush straight into the opponent's camp. Magician team, use your full strength to be the most powerful. Magic. The Silver Wolf Legion has a maximum of 150 magicians, but you 20,000 magicians still can't break through their defenses?"
Carlin's dissatisfied voice sounded: "If you are not a magician, why don't you give random orders here? Twenty thousand magicians activate their most powerful magic at the same time? That magic interference is enough to kill eighteen thousand people. You are indeed a magic idiot. Ah...A hundred and fifty magicians are few? The magic power they concentrate is also very powerful. We don’t dare to get close, so how can we attack with all our strength?"
Shalin roared angrily: "Then you all charge forward."
Karin sighed and shouted: "There is no door, don't forget, I am the commander-in-chief, you are my fucking subordinate, you dare to order me? I will ask my father to revoke your title immediately, do you believe it?" Don’t believe it? Don’t think that just because that kid Karoka came over with reinforcements, you will have a backer... So what if Karoka came over with 200,000 people? I’m still the commander-in-chief. If you piss me off, I’ll kill him now. You... hmm, you want my mage team to charge? Can you imagine that you, just your soldiers, can cover them? There is no other way except to fire magic bullets from a distance. What if I had an army of Silver Wolves? , I’m rushing forward on my own now.”
Sarin was furious, and the infantry of the two countries also charged together. The heavy infantry of the Smart Empire raised their spears in an irregular manner, but the Silver Wolf Corps uniformly made a "ha" sound, and five hundred guns were raised. The spears were thrust out at almost the same time and at the same angle without any deflection. A finger of thick heavy armor could not resist their thrusts. The five hundred Smart heavy infantry howled miserably and were lifted high by them. And took advantage of the situation to throw it out.
Such a blow made Emperor Smart completely frightened. Look at this momentum, look at this momentum, it is worthy of being the corps of the mainland's first army. But Sarin's order has been issued, and those infantry still have to Keep charging. The 500 Vant heavy infantry took three steps back neatly. The 1,500 light infantry behind them roared and rushed forward. In groups of three, they wielded heavy machetes and cut down countless people. The heads of the Smart Empire soldiers wrapped up in them.
Kalin's sarcastic voice sounded across the battlefield again: "Oh my God, God, God, please forgive this idiot Sarin. Their soldiers blocked the gate of the camp and kept their formation and killed them happily. It's a pity that we
Lord Salin, he didn’t even notice that he couldn’t form a formation, so he just ordered the soldiers to charge forward... Oh my God.”
Sha Lin yelled in an angry voice: "What are you paying attention to those people with less than 2,000 people? Break through their wooden fence, rush in, and kill them."
Amidst the rumble of horse hooves, the heavy cavalry had already rushed towards the soldiers of the three private armies, but those soldiers actually shouted and ran towards the back. The heavy cavalry was just happy when they discovered that the soldiers of the private army were
Behind them, a dense group of pikemen and archers of the Silver Wolf Legion appeared. The long spears had been set up on the ground, and the archers had already released the first shower of arrows.
Amidst the howling of horses, countless heavy cavalrymen were lifted up high, or their horses were hit by arrows, throwing them to the ground. Countless spearmen were also broken by the heavy impact of their spears, and those who were on the verge of
The dead heavy cavalry, including men and horses, collided with them, knocking them upside down with blood spurting from their mouths. However, the fierceness of the elite legion of the Vant Empire finally showed. Those rolling spearmen, as long as
Those who could still get up screamed and got up. With blood all over their bodies, they pulled out the daggers from their waists and pounced on the heavy cavalry who fell on the ground. They took off their helmets and cut their necks.
He stabbed me hard with the sword.
Another column of pikemen rushed up. They roared and thrust. This time their target was the horses... Another group of cavalry fell to the ground. Before they could get up, they were beaten by those madmen.
The pikemen cut off the heads.
With a shout, the heavy cavalry of the Smart Empire actually retreated, while the soldiers of the private army rushed forward with cheers. Who wouldn't want to beat up a drowned dog? The head of one heavy cavalry can be worth ten
What about the gold coin bounty?
Kalin did not use his magic power to shout loudly this time, but discussed with Shalin in a low voice: "Hell, if I don't go to the battlefield, I don't know that our empire's cavalry is so timid. Oh my God, General Shalin, how can you do it in the future?"
We need to train them well."
Shalin also had a wry smile on his face: "Lord Carlin, how do I know that the soldiers of the empire are like this? In my plan, as long as they are as brave as the Vant soldiers, I can lead them to raid this camp. Look,
stand up..."
At this moment, the two of them were no longer tit for tat and roaring at each other. They were clearly two wolves gathering together to conspire.
Karin muttered a few words, shook his head and said: "Then, forget it, the goal has been achieved, let's retreat. Their four corps combined have 100,000 people. With our strength, even if we forcefully eat them, the losses will be small."
It will be very disastrous, really, I wanted to eat a roasted wolf leg, it’s such a pity... But it doesn’t matter, I think Balu should have heard what we said, right?”
Shalin nodded: "Yes, I really want to see what Balu will do if he knows there are 200,000 reinforcements behind us. Will he run away? No, hey, I know this guy Balu, he
He will never escape. He will definitely demand reinforcements from the imperial capital, but..."
Karin sneered: "We have spent decades cultivating so many of our own people in the Vant Empire, and it's time for them to play their role. God, the entire southern province of the Vant Empire is such a fertile land.
Shalin, work hard and I will fully recommend you as the lord of Xili Province and Qingfeng Plain."
Salin thanked Karin gratefully, and shouted loudly: "Damn it, you bunch of bastards, retreat, retreat...all retreat...keep the formation, you useless trash, the front team becomes the back team.
Team, cover the archers in the middle, use bows and arrows to cut off the retreat, and the heavy infantry to cut off the rear, retreat carefully, don't mess up, you bastards..."
Salin complained: "The middle and lower-level officers of the empire need to be properly trained. Lord Karin, my God, they don't know how to control the army at all... The empire attaches too much importance to the cultivation of magicians. I heard that there are only two in the imperial capital.
A military academy that trains middle and lower-level officers, right?"
Karin rolled his eyes: "Yes, there are only two military academies in the imperial capital, but there are more than a hundred magic academies... In fact, I wanted to join the military academy when I was a child, but unfortunately it was too difficult to get in, so I ended up getting in.
It's a relatively popular magic academy and it's easier to take exams. Who would have thought that those old ghosts would actually say that I'm a genius? Oh wow, in fact, I've always wanted to be a knight." Karin began to feel sorry for himself again.
Salin also rolled his eyes. He had absolutely nothing to do with this treacherous and changeable Karin.
The soldiers of the Smart Empire retreated in panic. Balu stood at the gate of the camp, watching them retreat with a gloomy face, and stopped the pursuit of his subordinate soldiers. But at this moment, a beast-like howl came from the silver wolf.
There was a sound in the legion's camp, and a man knocked away two soldiers like a wind, and rushed towards the retreating Smart army with a machete.
Balu was furious: "Who dares to disobey my order?" When he looked closely, who was that person if it wasn't Lei?
Someone once said that when a person who is usually gentle and never angry gets really angry, he will definitely become a crazy beast. This is what Lei was like at the moment. When he first started, he was extremely scared and heard the sound above his head.
The sound of dense explosions made him fear nothing but fear, a fear so deep that it could make him go crazy. He thought of the fire and blood that night, and of Bit's head that had been trampled to pieces.
Then, maybe it was the unique toughness of the mountain people, the heroic temperament passed down by blood, and the mountain people's way of survival against wild beasts that made Lei deeply despise his own fear. Yes,
What is there to be afraid of? When I was fifteen years old, didn’t I kill a giant wolf? What is there to be afraid of?
Lei screamed: "Damn it, what's there to be afraid of? Isn't it just humans? I'm not afraid of wolves or tigers, how can I be afraid of you?"
An inexplicable emotion flooded his mind, the fear of seeing his father torn to pieces by wild beasts when he was a child, the pressure caused by years of worry about his mother's body, the fear and pain caused by their bloody corpses.
Sadness, these strange emotions softened together, causing Lei to fall into a strange and weird madness. He picked up a knife and rushed out.
The agility cultivated on the rugged mountain trails, the keen sense and hearing brought about by hunting wild beasts, and the strong body trained by fighting countless wild beasts, allowed Lei to easily avoid the sparse rain of arrows and howl.
Shouting, he rushed into the retreating Emperor Smart.
With a roar of thunder and a flash of the sword, he chopped off the head of a heavy infantryman. Then he slashed with another sword. It was a machete specially made by the Fante Empire and specially assigned to the elite corps directly under the imperial capital. It weighed about thirty kilograms.
Coupled with the special shooting lines that are conducive to chopping, it is simply a must-have weapon for killing people and slaughtering cities. In Lei's strong hands, such a weapon fully exerted its power. With a flash of light, another heavy infantryman was killed by him from the left shoulder.
The right waist was split into two pieces, blood spattered, and Lei's entire body was dyed red.
Lei laughed ferociously and shouted loudly: "Karin, you bastard, I'm going to kill you."
A black iron knight rushed over with a gloomy sword. Lei Kuang smiled and swung his sword to meet him. The swords met and the sword was suddenly split into two pieces. The second-level black iron knight looked at Lei in disbelief and was stunned.
, the sword flashed, and his head flew into the sky.
Emperor Smart's rear team was in chaos. Where had they seen such a crazy fighting style? A guy without armor actually slashed to death two heavy infantrymen and a black iron knight with a knife.
...The soldiers panicked and left with a roar. General Salin had ordered a retreat anyway, so why should they risk their lives?
Lei Kuang screamed and rushed forward. Immediately afterwards, dense but orderly footsteps came from behind him. Long spears were poked out, provoking each of the Smart Emperor soldiers.
The long arrows poured down, causing the light infantry to be splashed with blood.
Lei was swinging the knife and slashing randomly. Now not only the people of Emperor Smart did not dare to approach him, but also the people of the Silver Wolf Legion avoided him. Who wants to be slashed by him for no reason? The result is
It evolved into a weird situation where Lei took the lead alone and led the 5,000 Silver Wolf Legion men to pursue more than 20,000 Smart infantrymen who were fleeing madly.
Sha Lin was furious and roared fiercely: "Stop, the whole team will fight again, the heavy cavalry will surround the two wings, and the magician team will take action."
As soon as Shalin's order was given, a skinny arm stretched out towards Lei like a ghost. After punching away the machete in Lei's hand, he was slapped more than a dozen times in a row until he was dizzy. Then the man carried a
Catching thunder, he retreated with five thousand Silver Wolf soldiers. The man laughed loudly: "Sha Lin, you have found a good master. Look at the soldiers under your command. To describe it as rubbish is too much to praise.
They were so frightened by a soldier under my command that they lost control of their position, thus depriving me of the military merit of two thousand men. I, Balu, cannot thank you enough."
Sha Lin was furious. When he saw Balu leading his men back to the camp quickly, he stamped his feet angrily and fixed his murderous eyes on the commander of the infantry. It looked like that man was going to be in trouble.
Already.
However, Karin had enough time to peel an apple and gnawed it. He asked vaguely: "What was that kid yelling about? It seemed that I heard my name. Strange, could I have someone in the Vante Empire?"
Are you acquaintances? Could it be that I once had a relationship with a certain beauty from the Vante Empire, and then her lover came to seek revenge on me?" He had already forgotten about Lei who he let go, and he never thought that Lei was going crazy there.
What about scolding? But Lei has no fighting spirit, and he doesn't have the magic to spread sound, so Carlin can't hear clearly.
Shalin shook his head and said nothing.
Karin sighed: "Really, I thought I could let Balu suffer a loss, but who knew it was us who would suffer... The elite army of the Vant Empire is really not something that our brigade can deal with, so we still have to
Slowly teasing them... Fortunately, the purpose of tonight has been achieved. Well, let's camp on the ruins of the 'Iron-Blooded Battle Castle'. It would be a waste not to use such a large piece of flat land for camping."
Emperor Smart retreated slowly. In this night's raid, only 3,000 members of Emperor Fanter's army were killed or injured, but they themselves suffered more than 15,000 casualties.
The strong strength once again taught the Smart Empire a good lesson. On the way to retreat, Kalin complained again: "It would be nice if the troops who betrayed you were here. Alas... at least they are also Emperor Fant*
*ah."
Sha Lin was furious and muttered: "Didn't you say that they are Vant people after all and are unreliable? Do you have to send them to the other two attack groups?"
Karin raised his eyebrows: "Really? Is there any? Oh, by the way, I said that, Sarin, since you don't have suitable soldiers on hand, you have to work hard and train these soldiers hard.
, Alas, otherwise no matter how good our plan is, the soldiers will not be able to fight at all."
Shalin stretched out his right hand: "Then, it's easy. It's enough to ask Lord Carlin to give one-tenth of the funds allocated by the empire to the Mage Association every year to the army."
Karin was stunned for a moment, then shouted: "There is no door, how about giving you one-tenth? Why don't I give it to myself? The Imperial City has just released more than a dozen exquisite jewelry, and I am worried about having no money...
My bastard father, as the first prime minister, doesn't do much corruption. His income of just a few million gold coins every year is not enough for my expenses. I have more than 200 lovers in the capital, don't I have to spend money?
?”
Shalin almost fell from his horse, and he roared gloomily: "I seem to have heard that the funds used by the empire to develop new ordnance are only one million gold coins a year, right?"
Karin snorted a few times: "That's the empire's business, what does it have to do with me? It's my father's private property. If I donate them to the empire, then I might as well become the emperor's majesty...
.Although I have this hope... Alas, I wonder when our Majesty will die? He has no sons. If I marry all the princesses, wouldn’t I be the next His Majesty? How wonderful.
The future...hehehehehe."
The surrounding knights once again took the initiative to ignore Karin's rebellious words. Including Shalin, they all knew that this was very possible, and none of them dared to say more. After all, among the five princesses in the empire, and
There are four that Carlin doesn't know. The last little princess is also pursued by Carlin like a mad dog.
In the Silver Wolf Legion's camp, Balu was throwing the struggling Lei on the ground with his teeth and claws arrogant. Lei howled crazily: "Kill, kill, kill, kill..."
Balu smiled and kicked Lei in the stomach, and roared: "Kill, kill, kill, kill your ass. Wake up, Lorber, and count Lei's military exploits."
A soldier nodded and reported: "Heck to death seven heavy infantrymen, reward thirty-five gold coins. Kill seventeen light infantrymen, reward fifty-one gold coins. Kill a second-level black iron knight to death."
, the bounty is thirty gold coins, and according to military regulations, the rank should be promoted."
Balu smiled: "Okay, that's right. You're worth the time I spent. Well, if my Silver Wolf soldiers were as crazy as you, I would dare to lead more than 20,000 people in pursuit, hehe.
..The boy has a very strong physique. He is worthy of being from a mountainous area. Damn, he can actually cut through such a thick armor with one stroke. You used to be an ordinary soldier, right? You'd better be an ordinary soldier now, but as my dear
Soldiers."
Lei finally woke up and shook his head. He suddenly remembered the scene where he had just split a living person into two pieces. Lei howled miserably and suddenly began to vomit like crazy. He vomited non-stop, and his limbs were all injured.
The convulsions started.
Balu shook his head: "You are a novice after all. Hehe, it seems that it is right not to let you be the squad leader. Otherwise, how will you lead my soldiers? There is no way to make them respect you... Take care of me."
Lei, I'm going to see the three legion commanders. They must be carrying a bunch of heads to collect the reward. Damn it, how can I give them so many gold coins? I should scare them... 200,000 reinforcements
?God, it’s enough to eat us.”
Balu walked out with a few soldiers a little worried, and Lei gradually calmed down on the ground and gradually slowed down his body.
One of the soldiers pulled Lei up affectionately, punched him hard twice on the chest, and shouted: "Good boy, you are really powerful. We are just cooperating with the heroes, but we don't dare to charge alone like this."
Go out, hey, they are indeed good brothers. However, you still have to learn to kill. Think about your brothers who were killed by Emperor Smart... When the Smart people killed them, it was
There will be absolutely no mercy."
Another more experienced soldier patted Lei on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Lei, is this your first time to kill someone? Remember that feeling, remember that feeling of flesh and blood flying everywhere. In the future, you will slowly
It’s a habit, and you finally fall in love with that feeling, whether it’s your own flesh or someone else’s flesh, it’s a very enjoyable thing.”
A tall soldier hit the thunder hard and laughed loudly: "The boy is very big and very strong. Not bad, not bad. I, Tuga, like people like you. From now on, just follow me."
Yes, I will take good care of you. Well, isn't it just killing people? You have killed wild beasts in the mountains, right? Just kill them as wild beasts."
Lei nodded slightly, his stomach churning again. He thought in confusion: "Oh my god, how could I rush out like this? How could that person be me...I, I killed someone,
I killed so many people, more than twenty people... Their mothers will definitely be sad... But, but... if I were killed by them... Mom..."
Early the next morning, the Silver Wolf Legion's spies came back to report the military situation. Carlin and his army had camped on the ruins of the 'Iron-Blooded Battle Fort' fifteen miles away from the Silver Wolf Legion. Balu was furious: "That damned one
Magician, he's trying to provoke us on purpose, damn, they're camping there, damn guys."
The gray-faced Meko trembled and asked: "Master Balu, what should we do? If the Smart Empire really has 200,000 reinforcements, it will be difficult for us. I already
All the magic power has been overdrawn, and it will be impossible to use any magic for at least three days. If their magicians attack in large numbers, we will not be able to protect them."
Balu was silent for a while, nodded slowly, and whispered: "No, we can't retreat. Even if they have reinforcements, we have a hundred thousand soldiers in total. As long as we defend properly, they can't eat us quickly."
.If we retreat, the entire Xili Province will be exposed to them. The entire Xili Province does not have any defensive force at the moment. If the province is occupied by them, it will be troublesome."
The three private army commanders were speechless. If the Xili Province was occupied, then their lord's territory would be in danger. Even if the soldiers of the Smart Empire were finally expelled, the war would start on their own territory after all.
, when the ruins are left to them, they will have no time to cry. These southern provinces are the most fertile places in the entire Vante Empire. If they are reduced to ruins, let alone the future economic development of the empire.
After being in trouble for a few years, at least the furious His Majesty Shagru will take it out on them.
Balu emphasized again: "No, we must not retreat. Yes, we will never retreat."
The three private army commanders looked at each other, nodded silently, and sighed in their hearts. They could not retreat. After all, their families were in a province close to Xili Province. For their own interests, they had to desperately resist Shi.
The Matt Empire was attacking. Thinking of this, they couldn't help but regret it. If they had known what was going on, they shouldn't have just sat back and watched Duke Greene's show. They should have brought troops to reinforce them. At that time, if they had
Join forces to attack the Smart Army. Judging from their performance last night, they can defeat the opponent in one fell swoop, right? Who knows?
Balu said in a low voice: "Have the people we sent out to deliver military information set off?"
One of his subordinate golden knights nodded silently. Another golden knight asked in a low voice in confusion: "But there is no reply from the imperial capital. What happened? The Minister of Military Affairs said that as long as we come to find out the enemy's situation,
He will ask His Majesty for authorization to mobilize the reinforcements we need, but now..."
Balu frowned: "Something seems to have happened within the empire. Do you remember the scene when we set off? Because of problems with food, military pay, and ordnance, our departure time was delayed by three days. Three days.
..Although we traveled day and night, we were still almost a day late. The forward sentries got in touch with General Kailuo, but were unable to save them... Damn it, three days. According to normal procedures, we shouldn't
It’s been delayed for so long.”
The people in the big tent were shocked and asked one after another: "Sir, what do you mean?"
Balu Shen drank: "Since we have spies in the Smart Empire, their Smart Empire will only have more spies inside our empire. Moreover, those people must have already taken action. I sent them out for the first time.
The messenger who reported the destruction of the 'Iron-Blooded Battle Fort', maybe...maybe he has been...otherwise, we should have received a little reply anyway."
Meike twitched his beard: "Yes, although the reply from the imperial capital cannot arrive so quickly, there are military stations on the road to receive the messengers. According to the rules, they should send us a message back, reporting that our people have arrived.
...Could it be..."
Balu shouted: "Come here, send a hundred messengers, disguised as ordinary people, and rush to the imperial capital day and night. Order them, whoever gets to the imperial capital first, will directly take my personal letter to see the Minister of Military Affairs and report
Related matters require him to thoroughly investigate these matters... Damn it, it would take five days for a single person to travel day and night to get to the imperial capital. Even if the imperial capital sends troops immediately, it will take more than fifteen days for a large army to reach the capital.
It will take twenty days to arrive."
Everyone looked solemn, and Balu stood up suddenly: "Everyone, we just need a month. We must hold on here for a month. No matter what, we can't take a step back within thirty days, even if Emperor Smart changes.
No matter how many reinforcements we receive, we will never retreat... Balu, please do your best."
The three legion commanders stood up, silently pulled out their swords and pointed them towards the sky, nodding slightly. After a while, one of the legion commanders gritted his teeth and drank: "I can send someone to ask our Lord Duke to send reinforcements. I
They brought 23,000 people. There are still five divisions in the duke's territory with a total size of more than 30,000 people. There are also more than 70,000 miscellaneous troops and seven teams of the emperor. I think they will be enough to reinforce us.
"
Balu frowned and pondered for a long time, then nodded and said: "Very good, but Duke Luke's division is obviously overstaffed. Although the private armies of the lords are all overstaffed, those who have reached his level of overstaffing are quite a few.
It’s rare... We currently have nearly 100,000 troops. If each of the three lords can support us... 20,000 people?"
The legion commander who just spoke was trembling all over, regretting that he had told the truth. According to the imperial establishment, a division consists of three teams, which is 3,000 people, and five divisions only have 15,000 people.
The size of the army, but why did you say that Duke Luke's five divisions have 30,000 people?
The three legion commanders assured loudly: "Don't worry, we will ask the Duke to reinforce as many troops as possible. There will be absolutely no problem. We will not take a step back until the legions directly under the imperial capital arrive."
Balu thought for a long time and finally nodded slowly: "Okay, in that case, I think the size of the private armies in each lord's territory is about the same. Well, let's ask them to each reinforce 30,000 combat-effective soldiers. At the same time,
We need to bring a lot of food, grass and arrows. We are mainly for defense, so we need a lot of wood to make fences and stop horses... The magicians of the Smart Empire are too hateful. If there are strong crossbows specially designed to deal with them
, just bring them all to me.”
The three army commanders nodded. Balu laughed: "Well, according to the strength shown by the Smart Empire in the past, their entire army will not exceed 400,000 people. If there are more than 300,000 people concentrated in front of us, they will
They are unable to attack us from other directions. With the reinforcements of the three lords, we can have a good fight with them."
Balu calculated: "Let's deal with the immediate crisis first. Even if the Smart Empire recruits the private armies of their great nobles to participate in the battle, but their regular armies are like this, what power do their private armies have?
Their two commanders, Sarin and Karin, are still at odds with each other. Maybe, maybe I can take the opportunity to teach them a lesson. Well, I hope the reinforcements from the imperial capital can arrive soon."
The iron cavalry rumbled, and more than a hundred messengers roared out of the Silver Wolf Legion's camp.
Over at the 'Iron-Blooded Battle Castle', countless magicians began to set fire. Under the supervision of Carlin, those magicians, no matter what type of magic they were, the high-level ones used high-level fire magic.
If the attributes are different, use the lowest level fireball technique to burn the corpses on the ground desperately.
Kalin floated in the air and said with a smile: "Ah ha, the location chosen for the 'Iron-Blooded Battle Fort' is good, the scenery is very good. When I get rich in the future, I will build a villa here and bring thousands of beauties here to be happy.
It's really wonderful...except these corpses are so disgusting, everything else is really good."
Kalin didn't notice that in the Silver Wolf Legion camp far away, Lei clutched the bow and arrow in his hand and stared at him fiercely... Although from a distance, Kalin only seemed to be floating in the air.
It was just a small black dot, but Lei relied on a beast-like instinct to know that it was Carlin.
