Realm of Power

Main text 1610 Southwest versus Northwest (IV)

The wind picked up a wisp of grass, like a dividing line and opened a thin window slit. Yiyi stared at the scenery outside. 150 Falcon Guards Cavalry slowly came out of the open fortress gate. In the ray of morning light that illuminates the earth,

Two cavalrymen with the same neat appearance faced each other at a distance of 200 meters.

Murphy O'Brien, who was standing on horseback under the banner of the Murphy family, had his eyes wide open. He was so powerful, especially the commander of the black armored cavalry who was sitting on the horse's head in front of the black armored cavalry, with two men on his back. The style of the knight's sword and its violent style that is good at close combat can be clearly seen. Under the ferocious helmet, there is only one eye, but looking at it from a distance of 200 meters, it makes people feel like being scratched by a sharp weapon. Like a sword warrior! There is no doubt about this,

Under the leadership of this warrior, the 150 black cavalry were clearly just lightly armored, but they exuded a solemnity like a landslide. Black and purple were like two parallel straight lines, and the wind blew up from the middle, like Being squeezed, the battle flags of both sides fluttered,

"It's all light armor!"

Murphy O'Brien was surprised for a moment,

The opponent took a different approach, but there was a hint of solemnity and a mysterious smile on his face.

150 light cavalry versus 150 heavy cavalry, the opponent is no longer frivolous and unmanned, but is looking for death! Give up the shackles of armor and use the lightest posture to attack the heavy cavalry commanded by Murphy Lins. 150 vs. 150. With the speed of the light cavalry, you can easily become invincible. It is a good plan, but it is a pity.

Murphy O'Burn curled his lips slightly. He was not Algernon Katya, the arrogant greenhouse flower who couldn't even figure out who the enemy was, nor was he the self-righteous Southwest Army. He was Murphy O'Burn. He joined the army at the age of five, and was seriously injured in a battle at the age of eighteen. Murphy O'Brien cut off the battle flag of the famous Central and Asian general Li Gesi with one sword, which made all the Central and Asian generals feel terrified.

The 150 battle-hardened Murphy dragon-armored cavalry who went into battle this time were not ordinary dragon-armored cavalry. Each of these cavalry was a dragon lance that terrified the enemy on the eastern battlefield! Only 500 of the 30,000 Murphy Dragon Armors have Dragon Lance, the most honorable title among Murphy cavalry. More than half of Murphy's armor-breaking fame is due to the Dragon Spear. To become the number one armor-breaking attack Queue of Dragonlance. The first condition is to kill an enemy squad leader and have participated in more than three battles.

The establishment of 500 people is fixed. If there are too many, there will be no sense of honor. If there are too few, they will not be able to be the frontline assault force of the entire queue. No, 500 people. It is often possible to change every six months, not only because of battle losses, but also internal competition. The number of 500 is neither more nor less. In other words, if someone enters, someone must retreat. Who retreats and who advances depends entirely on personal ability. Every six months, the Dragon Armor Army will hold a Dragon Spear induction ceremony. Those who meet the conditions have an opportunity to challenge the Dragon Spear members. Whoever wins will stay. The loser will only be eligible to challenge again after half a year. Therefore, the morale of the Murphy Dragon Armor Army is extremely high.

As the commander of the top family military group in the empire, Murphy O'Brien considers that in terms of personal force, he is not as good as his younger brother Murphy Lins, who is known as the family's most powerful general. What he is good at is his command ability, which is to make thousands of troops fight. Horse, the ability to turn into an irresistible sword.

The Murphy family started out as cavalry, and they also attached great importance to cavalry. Murphy O'Brien also took a high look at things related to cavalry, including the Falcon Guards Cavalry. The strongest cavalry on the northwest coast. In the Battle of Biye Valley, five thousand such cavalry strangled the vitality of the 60,000 Southwest Army. It completely made it difficult for the Southwest Army to raise its head in front of the Northwest Army. Only a hundred cavalry had an attitude that did not belong to the army. The momentum of one hundred and fifty heavy armored cavalry. For such a brave and well-equipped northwest cavalry, how could Murphy O'Brien not understand at all?

Compared to Algernon Katja, who has always maintained a disdainful attitude towards the Northwest Coast, and Julius Forbaugh, who is more supportive of the Northwest Coast, Murphy O'Brien is the rare one who regards the Northwest as a place worthy of respect. Looking at it from its opponents,

With the lesson of Algernonkaja in front of him, and the heavy losses suffered by Gangfei Navy in the back, both news have reached the capital of the Gallic Empire, and the slanderous words of some families about the northwest coast have also followed. The navy turned the tide of the Southwest War in one battle and gradually calmed down.

Murphy O'Brien, who took over the Southwest, was very clear about his opponent. He was already at the end of his strength and could no longer do anything. The Northwest was the biggest hidden danger for him to gain a foothold in the Southwest. The first thing he did when he arrived in the Southwest was Murphy O'Brien. Not to hold a military meeting. Discussing how to deal with Gang Feiren, we secretly made a trip to several southwest ports controlled by the northwest coast, just to really get in touch with the real power of the northwest coast.

After Murphy O'Brien took office, while fighting against the Gangfei people, he secretly sent many people to sneak into the northwest coast. The intelligence from the northwest became more and more detailed, including a volume of intelligence bought at a high price. , it says "Falcon Guards Cavalry!" Also known as the sharpest claws of the Vecian Falcon, it is good at long-distance assaults. They are not afraid of death, are brave and tenacious in combat, and are equipped with heavy armor. Their main weapons are falcon cavalry spears, curved swords and cavalry assault crossbows." Due to limited conditions, no more information can be obtained. The intelligence definition of cavalry assault crossbows , is a simple cavalry assault bow. Murphy O'Brien attaches great importance to this information.

His greatest characteristic is that he is good at analysis. Murphy O'Brien cannot confirm whether the assault bow of the Falcon Guards Cavalry can penetrate the Murphy Dragon Armor, but it is different from the one specially made by the family equipped by his own Murphy Dragon Armor Cavalry. The "Dragon Cone Bow" should be roughly the same. They are both powerful weapons equipped for cavalry battles.

In this battle, I had the upper hand. The main reason was that the other party didn't understand the Murphy Dragon Armor Cavalry too well. The Murphy Dragon Armor had a great reputation, not only because it was difficult for spears to penetrate barrel armor and it could be heavy in chaotic battles. The lance of the opponent's shield, as well as the "Dragon Cone Bow" equipped on the saddle. The name "Dragon Cone" refers to this weapon, although it is not very lethal. , but at a certain distance, it can quickly break through the military formation. This is a cavalry bow specially made by the Murphy family and equipped with a special heavy-duty war horse saddle as the base. The width of this bow string is up to 1.5 meters. , with strong elasticity, the specially reinforced bow groove can fix the two arrow clusters in the bow handle at the same time to prevent the arrow clusters from loosening when the horse leaps.

Before the battle, draw the bowstring and place it on the slot of the saddle. If you suddenly pick it up during the battle, you can fire two arrow clusters at once. Although the accuracy of the dragon cone arrow that pursues the armor-piercing ability of the arrow is not very good, it can be used in large-scale assaults. When armor-breaking and oncoming cavalry were fighting, a heavy rain of dragon cone arrows was suddenly fired from the heavy armored cavalry queue. It can often overwhelm unsuspecting enemies in the front.

When 30,000 Murphy dragon-armored cavalry swept through, they would often find corpses everywhere.

Without any long-range combat capabilities, how could the Murphy Dragon Armor have been able to dominate the eastern battlefield for so many years? Just relying on the advantages of heavy armor and its ability to withstand the gun array, it had long been defeated by the cavalry regiments attacked by the Central Asians. There is no scum left. Anyone in the Central Asian Army knows that the Murphy Dragon Armor can not only break formations, but also has a very powerful long-range killing ability. It is very troublesome to fight against it. It cannot chew you, and it will bite you from time to time. One bite will make anyone feel helpless

"Let's get started!"

Murphy O'Byrne sees his brother as a commander. The family's number one general, Murphy Lins, looked at him. Murphy O'Brien nodded very confidently, stretching his right hand forward with his thumb down. On the eastern battlefield, this is what the two brothers did. One was responsible for dispatching and commanding. , one is responsible for charge operations. The tacit understanding reveals the trust the two brothers have in each other.

Seeing Murphy O'Brien's gesture, Murphy Lins calmly and slowly pulled out the knight's epee sword with an exotic red long handle from his waist. An unknown smile appeared at the corner of his mouth unconsciously. meaning,

This Bloody Knight epee, which is full of blood at first glance, has a very inappropriate name "Linglong", which is a word from the Central Asian Empire. It is said that this sword is the sword of an emperor of the Central Asian Empire. I don’t know how it ended up in the Murphy family.

Among the Murphy children who have been away from their homeland for more than 300 years, not many of them remember the meaning of this word.

But this sword is very famous in the Gallic Empire. When "Linglong" was transferred to the hands of the first Duke Murphy, who was known as the family's strongest general, Murphy Lins, it had gone through seven generations in the past three hundred years. , beheaded more than 21 famous Central and Asian generals, and even changed their names to the title "Blood of Famous Generals" in line with the Gallic Empire.

Looking at the black light armor lined up on the opposite side, Murphy Lins slowly put down the face armor of the heavy cavalry. Light armor vs. heavy armor. There is no suspense in this battle. The two armies are facing each other. If the other side thinks that it can rely on the high power of the light cavalry, If you use speed to find flaws in your heavy cavalry formation, the opponent will definitely regret it.

Facing the light armored cavalry that cannot threaten the heavy cavalry at all, I don't even need to charge. I just need to rely on the heavy armor and "Dragon Cone Bow" to advance step by step. If the opponent chooses to escape, I will take Murphy with me. The dragon-armored cavalry moved forward, crushing them all the way to the opponent's fortress gate. This was just the time to shame the self-righteous Vecchia Falcon. He wanted to let the northwest barbarians know that the heavy cavalry was the real king of war.

"I'm afraid that guy will be so embarrassed and angry that he will find a crack in the wall to crawl in! I just didn't know he was so fat. I'm afraid he won't be able to find such a big gap even if he tried to crawl through it!" Murphy Lins felt melancholy for the Vecia Falcon, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly Come on,

"go ahead!"

The blood-colored "Linglong" swung down fiercely, bringing up a line of blood in the sky. For hundreds of years, the long sword that has always been accompanied by blood sounded a low and ferocious sound.

"Woo"

The formation of the 150 Murphy Dragon Armored Heavy Cavalry began to change. The cavalry spears were unified, and the cavalry shields engraved with the family crest were in their hands. The heavy armors began to move forward slowly like hills. The thick and oppressive cavalry is now so tight that even the wind can't breathe. It's like a huge hammer that is slowly accelerating to completely crush all the obstacles in front of it.

The trembling of the war horse began to accelerate, the earth trembled slightly, and the sound of thunder echoed between the sky and the earth. Black and purple were like two parallel straight lines. The wind rolled up from the middle, like being squeezed and whirling on both sides. battle flag,

"First round of preparations!" Salon looked at the purple line that started to move in the distance, raised his hand high, and 150 Falcon Guards Cavalry skillfully took out their bows from the weapon slots, and the sharp arrows were neatly arranged. Point to the sky,

"shoot!"

"Pa, pa, pa." The first round of arrow clusters flew out. Because it exceeded the maximum range, the arrow clusters only landed densely about a hundred meters in front. The Guards Cavalry skillfully pulled out the second arrow cluster. The purpose of a round of shooting is just to find out today's wind direction and the 100-meter distance benchmark. This is the combat habit of the prairie rangers. Accurately grasping the distance between the enemy and ourselves is always better than trying to shoot one more arrow.

far away. The purple heavy cavalry rushed forward unhurriedly, with a trace of pride that could not be erased in the steady queue. The 150 cavalry lances formed a unified roar, and together with the mud wrapped up by the heavy cavalry's horseshoes, the entire battlefield was reflected. The coldness is overwhelming,

When the distance reached 150 meters, the heavy cavalry began to move at normal speed. The pace of the scattered war horses was as silent as a rock, and the heavy war horses gathered into a torrent of steel. The beat of the hoofbeats gradually changed from slow to fast, and gradually turned into a tense drum, and turned into a thunderstorm. Finally, it formed a huge sound wave that destroyed the world!

100 meters away, the entire ground groaned miserably amid the roar. There was a lot of gravel scattered on the ground, and there was a rustling sound like falling rain. Countless gravel fell to the ground while jumping on the ground. The skillful riding skills of the Murphy dragon armored cavalry, who had opened their stance, made it unnecessary for them to control the reins. The shield in their left hand was already on the side of the horse, and the neat spear was like a huge rolling thorn. Behind each heavy cavalry armor, there were A pair of bloodshot pupils exuded a coldness as sharp as a sharp blade.

Murphy's dragon armored cavalry at the forefront. The most neat charging momentum explains what it means to be well-trained. There is no heavy horse to stand aside, only the lava spurting out, like the hurricane waves rolling in from the tsunami, can have such a lineup!

"Let's go, for Your Majesty! The hunting begins"

Salon shouted loudly, his hand raised in the air suddenly dropped, and the 30 guards behind him appeared. The other 120 Falcon Guards Cavalry were divided into four teams and flew out from both wings of the long line. Like countless black swarms raiding the earth, sweeping towards the purple direction

"Shoot!" Bows and arrows came from both sides like a storm,

"Pay attention to maintaining the formation and prepare for the dragon cone counterattack!" The advance of Murphy's dragon-armored heavy cavalry began to slow down, and some arrow clusters were shot from the heavy cavalry. The grassland that was originally blank before the arrows fell was suddenly covered by a burst of arrows. The arrow clusters that swooped in were filled to the brim.

The vest of the heavy war horse made a jingling sound among the arrow clusters, and the skin and flesh were tearing! The Murphy dragon-armored cavalry who were occasionally hit by arrows were trampled to pulp by the subsequent torrent, and the heavy war horses were hit in vital parts by armor-piercing crossbow arrows. Staggering and falling violently, the strong inertia brought out by the high-speed galloping broke the strong horse's legs, throwing the heavy cavalry on the horse, drawing hollow circles one after another in the air, dancing with sand and blood all over the sky. , the roaring hoofbeats continue,

Various tones were mixed into a huge and complicated sound. After being baptized by arrow clusters on both wings, the charging team of Murphy's Dragon Armor intercepted a clear cut. Although this blow was caught off guard, the well-trained Murphy's Dragon Armor quickly put the round shield over its head. , no one panicked, and no one roared, this was a silent, cold-blooded cavalry!

50 meters,

Looking at the 30 black-armored cavalry who were still motionless in the distance, the Murphy dragon-armored cavalry who had already sacrificed more than thirty people finally began to fight back. "Whoosh whoosh" the arrow clusters shot out from the heavy armored cavalry queue, flying in the air. Dense afterimages swept out, " "Puff, puff" pierced into the strong muscles of the guards cavalry who were roaming and shooting nearby. Because they were lightly armored, the sharp dragon-cone arrows produced an extremely terrifying tearing effect on the wounds. This sudden burst of counterattack reached Astonishing lethality,

The dragon cone that can shoot through the shield at close range. Under the blow of this power, the Guards Cavalry Stormtroopers on both wings quickly blanked out, like a razor wiping the top of their heads. The sharp dragon-cone arrow spears of more than a dozen Guards Cavalry pierced through the strong body, flew off the horse, and were nailed directly to the sand.

"What a strong heavy cavalry!" The fat man rarely praised people like this, and his sharp pupils were trembling, but that was because the horses' hooves were ravaging the earth. The power of the heavy cavalry was always so breathtaking, and it was as huge as a natural disaster. In the roar. Even a fat man who has experienced many battles can't help but feel his heart contract violently!

"Someone, bring it up!"

The fat man, who seemed to feel something, turned around and ordered loudly. He saw a dozen soldiers using a wheel axle to pull a giant drum one meter long and wide to the top of the city. "Tong~Tong~Tong~" There was also a sound from the fortress location. The surging drum beats were as dense as heavy rain falling,

The wind and clouds are changing color, the earth is trembling, and the air is beginning to become suffocating.

"It's His Majesty who is beating the drum!" The Falcon Guards Cavalry, whose face was a little pale, was suddenly full of morale. At the top of the fortress, the fat man's thick hands were holding long-handled drumsticks, beating the whistle on the left side of the fortress like a storm. On a huge war drum on the tower,

It was a royal court war drum. No one knew when it was placed there. The stirring drumbeats were just like the rumbling echoes that had sounded on the grassland for hundreds of years. The sound of the drumbeats even overwhelmed the gradually accelerating hooves of the enemy's heavy cavalry. The heavy and sad sound of the war drums made every guard cavalryman from Kugit excited again. The trembling crossbows in their hands suddenly became motionless. It seemed that at this moment, they turned into a giant hammer beating the war drum, and the drum surface was the vast earth. (To be continued.
