Realm of Power

In mid-January of the 3rd year of the Falcon Empire Calendar, the continent of Obarro entered the deep winter. Cave drifts floated in the cold night wind, and large areas of white covered the earth. The traces seemed to purify everything in the world into one color. Falcon Empire The war with Normandy finally broke out from an early tentative attack into a full-scale war.

Nilay personally led 14,000 reinforcements to land at the Port of Beruye in Normandy. Within a day, the reinforcements set off from the Port of Beruye with lightning speed and stormed the weak Alamein area. Reaching the suddenness, the reinforcements took a small road called Dax County. Although Nilai had tried her best to choose roads that were rarely visited and difficult to walk, she still had to pass through many remote villages and those in the mountains and forests. Working villagers. With tens of thousands of troops crossing the border, it is completely impossible to do so without alerting anyone.

Based on the decision made by the coalition forces at the port, Nilai Zhineng ordered: "Kill people on sight and massacre every village! Never let a single person alive!"

For this order, the brutal massacre of Alamein began. On a cold winter night, there is a peaceful silence in the sleeping cottage. Suddenly, there was a clamor in the darkness, horse hooves rumbled, and a large group of Salander cavalry broke into the village. The young and middle-aged people in the village had already been transferred to the front line of Silver Moon Hill, leaving only the women, children and the elderly who had no ability to resist. The village suddenly woke up from their sleep, and there was a sound of babies crying and pleading. Officer Salander just looked at it coldly. At one glance, he shouted loudly: "Search carefully. Except for the Salanders, don't let anyone alive!"

Screams and wailings, blood flowing, and corpses everywhere, everything soon became silent, with only the rustle of winter snow falling to the ground. The soldiers of the Northern Alliance walked through the burning village with expressions on their faces, and the firelight shone on them. There was an almost ghostly silence on their serious faces. Some only have the overwhelming murderous intention filling their chests,

Nilai's war horse decorated with a silver saddle stopped in front of a village burning with flames. She glanced over, her beautiful big eyes containing complex emotions that could not be described. In a collapsed thatched house in front, a baby was heard. Crying, a disheveled Normandy woman used her body to block the falling heavy beams, and her body was already stiff. The woman's outstretched hand stopped only one centimeter away from the baby, as if she wanted to reach out and touch her child at the last moment. This fixed picture vividly shows the cruelty of war.

Although she was mentally prepared, Nile couldn't help but be touched in her heart. It turned out that the Normans were human beings too. They were also creatures of flesh and blood. Nilai raised her head and looked at the large hole falling from the black sky, and finally looked away with determination. Put the baby's cry completely out of your mind, harden your heart, and pretend you didn't hear anything.

This is war. At this moment, she suddenly understood that on the night when she proposed this plan to Fatty, Fatty stared at her for a full minute. What was said was not a compliment, but a "Are you really ready for this?"

"What does preparation mean? We Salanders are all preparing to fight back!" Nilai said with shame and anger. "I mean, are you ready to face death? Or something more cruel than death." Something?" The fat man looked at her with piercing eyes, revealing a sharp light, and said speciously, "If you can't be ruthless, don't To participate in this war, this is the revenge of one nation against another nation. There is no mercy, no kindness, no humanity. There are only victories and defeats. National wars are always the most cruel, and extermination is often the most common use in national wars. Means, survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, are you really ready to face all this? "

"Of course, we are never merciful to our enemies!" Nilai recalled her sworn answer at that time and couldn't help but reveal a wry smile. It turns out that facing death can sometimes be so heavy! Even if they are the enemy's subjects, they are still subjects! When he saw this plan, Falcon must have predicted the situation tonight, so he asked such a question. Now that I think about it, the distance between Belouye Port and El Alamein is only 20 miles, but this is a relatively densely populated area. In a dense area, it is not easy to make a surprise attack without anyone noticing. The only way is to annihilate everything along the way, or there is still a glimmer of a chance.

On this sinful night, the place where the reinforcements passed must be drowned in blood. Countless quiet and peaceful homes turned into seas of fire in an instant. Those once vibrant villages were razed to the ground overnight, leaving only a misty black smoke and the intermittent cry of the baby. The strength was finally covered up by the sound of falling winter snow

At dawn, the reinforcements had already advanced to the edge of El Alamein. Because they were marching urgently at night, the scouts sent out in front were caught off guard and encountered a huge Normandy food transport team, with more than 3,000 people. This encounter was unfortunate for both parties.

The food transport team was not a regular army. They were civilians recruited from the Normandy army. Their task was to transport food to the front line of Yinqueqiu. There were less than two hundred regular soldiers in it. Seeing Salander's sudden army, the civilians were frightened. I was so distraught that I left my food behind. The cars scattered and fled, hiding in dense forests and bushes, with the Salander cavalry in hot pursuit. The Norman soldiers responsible for escorting were still a little tough, because they knew that losing the food team would lead to a dead end and they resisted until the last moment. No one surrendered. "This Xu Dan!" The person leading the forward scouts was the old Duke of Russia and Germany who volunteered.

He was very annoyed with the situation in front of him. Could it be that the only gain from the first battle with the Normans was to capture hundreds of trembling civilians? Now that the traces had been exposed, the old Duke of Od simply went to work and ordered The heads of hundreds of Norman men and women were beheaded and hung on branches by the roadside.

The Alamein defenders were caught off guard. Under the fierce attack of tens of thousands of coalition troops, 2,000 people died in battle. 500 people were refused to surrender and were all killed. The principality was stored in the Alamein area, accounting for 50% of the country's total. The food was also looted by the coalition forces, and the rays of the rising sun shone on Alamein, which was filled with black smoke.

As the granary of the principality, all that was left was a city filled with smoke and flames. More than 30,000 ordinary citizens of Alamein were massacred in this attack. Their mutilated corpses were scattered like hills. The same piled up in the city of El Alamein In the central square of the city, the human blood flowing along the city streets even completely melted the snow on the ground, solidifying in the cold wind into a shocking red road. The sound of silence witnessed the cruelty of human beings. The black The crows are hovering in the sky

This was mainly a good thing done by the nobles in the Northern Alliance. Among them, only the old Duke of Odeh, who was filled with the pain of losing his son, personally chopped off the heads of 30 Normans with a sword. The others were filled with hatred and desire for wealth. One can imagine the brutal behavior of nobles with such a strong heart. Rows of Normans were driven out of their homes by the coalition forces, densely packed in the central square of the city, and then massacred collectively.

According to the northern nobles, they just repeated what the Normans did in Salander.

Even the kind-hearted Nilai adopted a policy of silence in the face of this national hatred of country and family. She only ordered the 5,000 soldiers in her own unit not to participate in the massacre.

The white snow fell quietly, quietly, blending it all into the same color. When the reinforcements rushed to Alamein, the 15,000 expeditionary force led by Reposti broke in from the narrow Yinqueqiu at the same time. In the weak hinterland of Normandy, the war situation became two fronts.

In Salander's mainland, Yuense, it was the last rainy season before the end of winter. The raindrops hit the marble steps of the Admiralty Building in Yuanse, and waves of white water splashed on the steps. , the entire building turned into a hazy and beautiful scenery in the clear rain. On the wide flat leading to the central hall, groups of people were covered with brown waterproof felt. The black-armored guards patrolled back and forth on the ground, and the sound of their regular footsteps was like a low muffled thunder rolling in the rainy dusk. At the large iron gate of the mansion in the distance, the iron railings on the green gate had long been washed away by the rain. It was bright, and the hundreds of guards responsible for standing guard were wearing waterproof felt cloaks. Their standing figures had turned into fixed black spots in the blurry rain.

"Tata" Several war horses emerged from the rain and stopped in front of the mansion's gate. The leader took off the black cloak on his head, revealing a somewhat ferocious face, with a black eyepatch covering his left eye. There is only one right eye, and the military horse's regimental markings indicate that these horses are neither the Navy nor the Confederate Army.

"Commander of the Salon Army." A black-armored guard captain stretched out his hand to block Salon's way, and said with an ugly look on his face, "I'm sorry, as usual, ordinary weapons cannot be brought in!"

Salon handed all the sabers he had to the guard captain in front of him, and asked, "Can I go in now?"

"Of course!" The captain of the Guards moved out of the way. Just as Salon was about to walk in, his eyes suddenly glanced at the stables next to him. He saw several horses with Hu Keqili Legion marks on their crotches, and he couldn't help but frowned slightly. , asked, "Is Master Hu Keqili here too?"

"Yes, in addition to Lord Hu Keqili, there are also Lord Caesar Sauron, Lord Varisien, and Lord Salton of the Second Army of the South!" the Guards Captain responded respectfully.

"Oh my God, what is your Majesty doing?" Salon's gray single eye was frightening. He stared at the raindrops above his head. Such a large army gathering was almost comparable to the battle with Ruidian's 200,000 troops. ,

"Does His Majesty really want to go to war with an empire?" This thought immediately ignited his inner ambition. For a general, is there anything more exciting than this? To be continued
