Main text 1814 Falcon Arrow (IV)

Seeing the falcon cavalry turn around and flee quickly, the somewhat bewildered Gaul Eighth Infantry Regiment, from the Infantry Regiment Commander Lescott to the ordinary soldiers, were all dumbfounded. Was this still the Falcon Empire cavalry that had just chased the Ninth Infantry Regiment like a tiger?

They were simply a bunch of hooligans!

The chasing light infantrymen were so angry that their mouths were crooked. These hooligans turned around and threw crossbow arrows at this side while running. Some crossbow arrows were obviously beyond the range and were blown away by the wind in the sky. No one knew where they were blown!

"We should be considered the victors who repelled the enemy! Why do I feel like a failure?"

A squadron leader of the 8th Infantry Regiment stuck his spear on the ground with a wry smile, holding the spear with both hands, breathing heavily. Although he was a light infantryman, running 200 meters at full speed would turn him into a person like him. He had never run so fast before. He didn't feel anything when he was running just now. He was just thinking about catching up and killing all the falcon cavalry. Now that he stopped, he immediately felt like his whole body was falling apart.

It felt like the air in his lungs was squeezed out completely, and a burning feeling of oppression spread throughout his body. He heard the soldiers next to him breathing heavily like himself, like a broken drumhead beating. The light infantrymen staggered here and there, but no one wanted to sit down and rest. Instead, after looking around, a light infantryman's face turned from gray to pale.

"Ugh"

The soldier bent over violently and vomited. There were many people who reacted like him. Although they were soldiers who had experienced the northern campaign, they had never encountered such a terrible scene like the hell of Shura. Even if some veterans could still remain calm, their faces would not look that good. It was really terrible! Lescott, who came up from behind, trembled slightly and looked a little pale. It was too miserable. The bodies of the soldiers of the 9th Infantry Regiment were lying all over the slope in front. The rain in the sky was getting heavier and heavier. The raindrops hitting the ground were like a handful of salt grains jumping. In the large area of ​​mud, there were tens of thousands of soldiers of the 9th Infantry Regiment floating. Because they encountered a cavalry cluster charge, the soldiers of the 9th Infantry Regiment fell in the same direction. These fallen bodies gave people the feeling that the huge sickle in late autumn suddenly cut off the wheat stubble. They were piled up and stacked into piles. The most reminiscent word is "massacre". The bodies at the bottom were lucky. Because their bodies were preserved the best, it was hard to say about the bodies above. Under the wanton trampling of the horseshoes of tens of thousands of cavalry clusters. The corpse had been completely broken into pieces like meat residue, and the bones of the corpse were all broken into pieces. The human body was bent at an extremely strange angle, the head and feet had touched each other, and the spine was broken, like a broken U. There was really no human-like place.

Or there were heads all over the ground rolling in the mud, making people not know how to scare their feet.

The blood gathered into a stream along with the rain, flowing in front of these bleached heads, and they were like naughty children who were pulling the heads left and right without any scruples. The red water flowed through the gaps between the stems and leaves of the weeds. If you look closely, you will find that there are countless limbs, internal organs, fingers and toes of people who have been trampled inside.

This is a Shura slaughterhouse. There was a dead silence, no one said a word, only raindrops bursting on the ground, and that sound was like exploding in people's minds.

"All troops assemble!"

There were too many corpses. Lescotts gave up the idea of ​​looking for the body of Adrulechar, the head of the 9th Infantry Regiment, in the pile of corpses. He frowned slightly, raised his hand and ordered the squadron leaders behind him, "The whole army should dig ten big pits on the spot and bury all enemies and friends. We don't have much time. It's still more than 20 miles away from Danerni. We must reach Danerni before dark. The appearance of the Falcon Army Cavalry indicates that more Falcon Army troops are coming aggressively. The cavalry of the Falcon Empire is famous for its sharp falcon swords, but what is more frightening is the Falcon Cavalry Assault Crossbow, which is a top cavalry capable of all-round attack and defense. Before reaching Danerni, if we are entangled, and at night, we will be in great danger!". "Yes, sir!" the squadron leaders answered in unison.

The fire in Granburg had just started, but it was quickly extinguished in the rain. Hukoqili's imperial cavalry quickly moved in. The city walls and camps were ready, and there were even eleven stables. He ordered his subordinates to build defenses on the spot and clear the dangers that might be left in the fortress.

Hukoqili got off his horse and walked onto the wall of Granburg, surrounded by his subordinates. The Granburg in front of him was more than 300 meters long and wide, with a main fort and six cylindrical corner forts. When the Gauls evacuated, they set fire to the warehouse area in the main fort. Some large siege equipment inside could not be transported away, and the Gauls were unwilling to leave these siege equipment to the Falcon Army. The best way was to burn them on the spot. Therefore, the fire point was still some distance away from the military camp near the fort gate. The stone-structured outer wall was bathed in a kind of desolation.

"Report to His Majesty that our army has completely controlled Granburg and beheaded more than 10,000 people on the way!" Hukochi stroked the mossy battlements of the city wall with his hand, suddenly raised his head, and looked at the raindrops above his head with complicated eyes, which seemed to have no end. His eyes flashed, getting closer and closer, and the smell of the trap became stronger and stronger! It would be more appropriate to say that the occupation of Granburg was accepted. The Gauls no longer had any strongholds that they could give up. Next time, it would be a real bloody battle!

Like a gambler, Algernonkaja bet everything there. The main force of 110,000 troops with almost no damage, and more than 200,000 reserves, gave up two strategic points at all costs, just to Lead the enemy into a trap,

What a huge gamble!

Hu Keqili sighed inwardly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and took a deep breath of the fresh air with raindrops. The development of the Battle of Daniel was like the rain that filled everything in front of him. It was really hazy and difficult to see. Clear, like two players playing cards alternately, Algernonkajia threw away all the useless cards as quickly as possible, while His Majesty held a handful in his hand that seemed to have an advantage. In fact, it is an ordinary card. Apart from ordering the Southern Army to occupy the upper reaches in advance and ensuring the supply of the logistics line, there does not seem to be anything particularly targeted.

This is not His Majesty Falcon's habit of taking the lead. How on earth would His Majesty Falcon defeat Daniel? Hu Keqili also wanted to know, but His Majesty Falcon was very strict in his tone, and even he didn't say anything! But Hu Keqili had already keenly felt that an invisible curtain was slowly opening in front of his eyes! No one knows what is behind this curtain, except His Majesty Falcon!

An adjutant walked into Algernonkaja's study in the city of Daniel with the latest report. Raindrops hit the window sill of the room. It was completely white outside the window. Algernonkaja, who was standing in front of the map with his hands behind his back, looked much haggard. He was only in his twenties, but white silk like autumn frost had grown on his temples, sweeping away the arrogant and arrogant pride of his youth. He has a hint of the temperament of a true general. steady. Reserved, looking at the map like a hunter carefully checking his animal trap,

"I just don't know if your bear trap can capture the raptors in the sky!" An inexplicable thought flashed through the adjutant's mind. The hand holding the information couldn't help but tighten.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Algernonkaja turned from the direction of the map, his eyes turned red. The news that Sukojad refused to retreat almost made him angry and ordered the war supervisor to kill people. In the end, the herald came forward to persuade him. , and made a trip in person to solve the problem. Sukojad agreed to evacuate, but Granberg was slow to Without moving, the corners of his eyebrows kept twitching. This was not a good sign. He had experienced the sharpness of the Falcon Cavalry in Biye Valley. The final decisive battle was coming. He carefully arranged two Yue's counterattack plan has reached its final conclusion. Every force saved now is the force that can quickly reverse the situation after counterattack.

"What's wrong, is there any news about the Trunsk troops? When can they arrive in Dani?" Algernonkaja glanced at the adjutant's ugly face, felt a bad premonition, and asked loudly Dao, Granburg is not a big problem. Algernonkaja is worried that Sukogad's retreating troops will be bitten by the opponent's cavalry. Those ferocious cavalry like wolves will not stop until they tear their prey into pieces. , such a long road can be described as a line between life and death!

"Lord Terensk's troops have entered the territory of our army in Daniel. Everything is safe! Sir, you can rest assured."

The adjutant's face hesitated and he paused before saying, "But during the retreat, Granburg's troops encountered a raid by a cavalry group of the Falcon Army. The 9th Infantry Regiment in charge of the rear was completely wiped out. The infantry commander, Lord Andrew Rechar, fought Die! This is reported by the 8th Infantry Regiment, which has also entered the safe range of Daniel!"

"What! The 9th Infantry Regiment was completely wiped out! How is this possible!" Algernonkaja's body trembled slightly, but the joy on his face did not stop for a second. He took the report from the adjutant's hand, his eyes filled with emotion. I looked at it several times unwillingly, and my face looked a little gloomy. The Ninth Infantry Regiment is the heavy infantry regiment of the Northern Army. Its equipment costs are higher than that of ordinary infantry regiments. It was prepared by Algernon Katja to be used for Daniel's defense. The main force was lost on the retreat road without any reason.

"This is simply worse news than hearing that Trunsk's troops were attacked!"

The corners of Algernon Katya's mouth twitched a little. He was like this when he was angry. He muttered to himself in a low voice with an ugly face. He punched the desk as if he was thinking about something. He suddenly raised his head and asked, "How many times have the Falcon Army occupying the upper reaches recently?" What’s going on?”

"The other party has cut off some of the tributaries of the river, and it seems that they are still hoarding water!" The adjutant's face was strange, a bit mocking. The city of Danieli is backed by plateau hills, and half of the terrain is rocky. If the place can be flooded, then the upstream area where the water is released is already underwater.

When we first heard about the situation of the Falcon Army in the upper reaches of the river, everyone was nervous for a while. After all, the Falcon Army used its warships to sail down the river ferociously to attack the city, which had a profound impact on the Gallic military circles. So what? What a crazy idea to dare to do this! But the news from upstream was that the Falcon Army was just hoarding water, and not even a shadow of the warships or anything could be seen! Moreover, the Gauls did not believe that the Falcon Army could transport huge warships to this barren plateau like the Battle of Rusty with dense water networks!

"Forget it, ignore him! Even if they compete for time, they can't catch up with us!" Algernonkajia shook his head, and the Vekia Falcon gathered an army of 40,000 people upstream. It should be regarded as a major decision-making mistake. The most likely thing is to store water and release the flood, which will flood Daniel again!

"Completely ignoring the unique terrain height of Daniel City, it was probably a stupid move made by looking at the map and patting my head! It is more likely that it was to put pressure on myself downstream, forcing myself to come out of Daniel and take the initiative to fight." Algernon Katya who judged this way There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth. Thinking of the sad face of the Vekia Falcon waiting to be flooded by the flood, and suddenly receiving the report that Lukozi had turned into a land of chaos, Algernonkaja felt like he had drank in the hot August A glass of snow-capped fruit wine is as refreshing.

In late August, the battle in the Dani area was filled with rainy weather, and in the southwest sector behind, there was also chaos. As a head-on confrontation between the two most powerful empires in the northern part of the Obaro continent. Intelligence agents from various countries in the Obaro region also gathered in the Southwest District a little behind.

Li Yuehua, the head of the Southwest District Intelligence Department, was very busy during this period. He handed his black raincoat to the maid behind him. Li Yuehua was very dissatisfied and threw a stack of reports on the table. These guys are crazy! He actually made a blatant request to the empire for strict protection.

These intelligence agents come from various countries. They cannot be regarded as spies in the true sense, and some even openly show their identity as a viscount, earl or other official status of a certain country. They just came to watch the battle, waiting for the final result of the battle, and then transmit the results back to their country as quickly as possible to use it as a reference for their country to weigh and consider the situation in northern Obarro.

This is a very normal foreign affairs job. It originally had nothing to do with the Intelligence Department of the Southwest District. However, since the count of a certain country was assassinated by a representative of a hostile country in the Southwest District, the situation in the Southwest District has tended to get out of control. , if the Southwest Governor Salon is here, he will definitely send troops to "protect" all these self-righteous guys in prison. When has the Falcon Empire ever been threatened by other countries? But Salon, who had the temperament of killing soldiers, went to Daniel,

The new supply line needed to be garrisoned, so Salon volunteered to lead 20,000 elite southwest troops to move into the mountain city.

In the absence of this top leader in military and government affairs, the burden of power in the southwest region rests on the Governor's Office, the Intelligence Department, the Undercover and the Business Alliance. When faced with the foreign affairs requests from these countries, the Governor's Office stated that it did not have the power to handle them. , the assassins said that they were very good at killing people. If they sent people to protect them, they would not be able to get away without paying them. Si Duhan from the Business Alliance regretfully said that such matters involving important relations between the empire and other countries have gone beyond business. In the end, only the Intelligence Department came forward to handle the alliance's affairs.

Because Li Yuehua planned the "Lover" incident, Fatty sent him back to the rear area to wait for orders. However, Li Yuehua's guidance suggestions were adopted by Fatty. The troops remaining on the front line were all elite members of the Southwest Intelligence Department. Without these people, Li Yuehua could mobilize The hands of the people suddenly became tense, and almost all the strength in their hands was mobilized, and finally the loss of control in the Southwest District was gradually stabilized.

After recovering from the tension, Li Yuehua picked up a report from a few days ago on the table and took a look at it. It was a report on the transportation of supplies. Just six days ago, the Southwest Governor Salon personally escorted the supplies northward. , the amount of supplies is a bit ridiculous. Most of it was military rations, because they might face transportation difficulties in the future. This time, they went out with all their strength and emptied half of the grain stocks in the Southwest District at once. The number of horses used for transportation alone reached 60,000. It seemed like a very ordinary report.

Li Yuehua put it down casually and frowned slightly. For some reason, this report gave her a strange feeling.

"Sixty thousand transport horses, how much military rations are here? What else does that damn fat man transport besides food! Rubbing his swollen temples, Li Yuehua complained in a low voice, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he took it again Picking up the put down report, his eyes were fixed on the 60,000 transport horses, and he jumped up from his seat as if he had been pricked by a needle.

"Come here, let Fulo come to see me immediately!" Li Yuehua's voice has always sounded cold, but at this moment, his voice has a feeling of being burned by fire. Why didn't he expect a transport team of 60,000 horses? The damn fat man is indeed a generous person!

"Sir, you are looking for me!"

A thin Central Bian man appeared in front of her. At this time, Li Yuehua brought his subordinates from Zhong Bian. In order not to be discovered by Zhong Bian, everyone changed their clothes to Obaro people after leaving the Southwest District. The name, even Li Yuehua's name to the outside world is Barbara, the fat guy got it specially, it's very vulgar! Li Yuehua objected several times to no avail. Fatty felt that this name was particularly suitable for a woman like Li Yuehua who was always thinking about how to harm others.

The rain hit the tarpaulin on the top of the tent and flowed down the top of the tent.

The yellow light projected through the military tent was like countless rays of light slipping down from the top of the tent. On a dark rainy night, the fierce plateau wind and rain swept the rain stars like a brush, as if searching for something on the ground. , scurrying around here and there

"Rumble"

Thunder, a shining red flash, seemed to lift a black cloud, revealing a large blood-like cloud. Countless people and horses were in the rain, and the neatly arranged armors and horses could not be seen to the end. No one made a sound, only the sound of raindrops splashing on the iron plates of the armor. Under the black iron helmets, there are faces of prairie people that have been tanned by the scorching sun. Under the iron plates, Full of heat like a wild wolf With slightly gloomy eyes, the rain is still pouring down, time passes in silence, the horses in the front row are kicking the ground uneasily, screaming twice in a low voice, even they are suppressed by the murderous aura bred in the silence Don't dare to neigh.

Under everyone's gaze, the felt curtain of the military tent was slowly rolled up, and a slightly fat figure appeared there.

"King Khan!"

The sound shook the fields and continued like waves in all directions.

Kneeling at the front were the leaders of the thirty-one tribes. They looked at the fat man with burning eyes as if they had been injected with chicken blood. They all knelt down.

Behind them, 60,000 prairie cavalry knelt neatly on one knee in the muddy water,

The rain soaked the felt-style helmets of the prairie people, and entered through the gaps in the cold helmets. The rain hit the saddles of the war horses, dripped on the ground along the smooth hair, and flowed down from the soldiers' resolute figures. Ignoring the splashing mud, he hit his chest hard with his right hand, bang! Neat sound waves rolled in the dark night,

"Warriors of the grassland, I once told you that as long as you follow me, you will return home with great rewards. Tonight is the time for me to fulfill my promise!" The fat man's eyes showed a touch of majesty, and his momentum surged. He pulled out the sword from his waist like an immortal. , suddenly Pointing to the sky to the north, "The whole army attacks, and the troops are divided into two groups to bypass the Gauls of Daniel. In fifteen days, everything you see is your spoils! Enjoy it to your heart's content!" (To be continued) Search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
