Main text 1825 The Tragedy of a Famous General (VI)

Under the gloomy sky, there was a vast emptiness and chaos, and the strong wind whistled between the two armies.

The battle in Daniele entered a brutal battle of life and death from the very beginning. The Gallic Northern Army was completely risk-free this time. Everyone from the general to the soldiers knew very well that this was the only chance to survive, and there was no way to break out. He could only starve to death in the city of Daniel, so the speed of his attack was the only one seen in previous battles.

The fastest light cavalry bravely moved forward in the light that exploded like a fireball, like a wild beast forced into a desperate situation. Above their heads were the roaring fireballs, and the heat wave caused by the explosion brought dust to their faces. It hurts, like countless scattered objects on the vast land The red flowers bloomed, and in the place where the heat wave rolled up, in the firelight, there were fast running horses screaming and falling down, some cavalry were thrown into the air like toys, and then smashed down heavily, and the people and horses were turned into minced meat by the red waves. Spreading out like raindrops,

"assault!"

The blood inspired the passion of the Gallic light cavalry. The speed of the light cavalry was brought to its extreme here. It was like a group of lights and shadows shaking. When hundreds of fires exploded again, the light cavalry commander Artua Gao had already rushed out. explosion zone,

He raised his hands excitedly and shouted "Raise the gun!" behind him. The dozen or so light cavalry who followed him raised their spears with extremely determined expressions, and even the scattered queue rushed out of the sea of ​​​​fire. Miraculously, it’s like a river converging, first dozens of people, and then people Hundreds of people, hundreds of people, light cavalry like swift leopards rushed out of the explosion. Some of them had half of their mails torn off, some of their D-helms were blown away by the heat wave, and some of them were dislocated by the heat wave. His body was swaying on the galloping horse, half of his body was dyed red with blood,

But when they heard the sound of "raising a gun", everyone without exception made an action. They used all their strength to level the bayonet in their hands, and moved closer to the commander who was moving at high speed with the battle flag flying in front. "Forward. For Gaul." The world was filled with the shocking sounds of the Gallic light cavalry. Horse hooves were flying, and the ground was thrown behind at high speed. The light cavalry hunched their waists and moved forward quickly like taut arrows, heading towards Before, half of the Gallic hussars were killed in the artillery fire. Half of the Gallic light cavalry rushed out of the explosion area,

400 meters in front of them was the defensive line of the Falcon Army. As the first legion to bear the attack of the Gauls, it was the Southern Legion of the Southern Governor Statunko. He looked at the Gauls who were fighting desperately. Light cavalry. He ordered someone to put up a battle flag representing the Southern Legion on the flanks of the army. There was no emotion on his cold face. A battle of one hundred thousand against one hundred thousand was not uncommon in the history of the Falcon Empire, but at the beginning of the battle It was not the first time for the Southern Army led by Stetunko to enter such a fanatical battle. He just felt that the Gallic light cavalry who launched a fanatical charge despite the pouring thunder cannon fire showed a tragic and fearless life and death, which made Statunko, who looked down on the Gauls, feel a sense of respect in his heart.

"However, some things cannot be obtained by just relying on courage!" Statunko glanced slightly at the corner of his mouth. In front of him, heavy spears were sharp, steel shields stood, and 30,000 people wearing heavy armor held long spears. The southern heavy infantry stood like a solid steel wall under the clattering flags, their expressions serious as eagle wings spread,

The entire Falcon formation was divided into a huge rhombus by His Majesty the Falcon. Among the four military formations, the Central Army has 40,000 people in the middle, occupying two square formations. The Southern Governor Statunko's 30,000 Southern Army is on the right, and the Salon Army has 30,000 people on the right. Such an array, No matter which direction the Gallic Northern Army chose to break out. In addition to defeating the first military formation on the flanks, they will eventually encounter the central army led by His Majesty Falcon, who is behind the first phalanx and is in charge of the second phalanx, of course. If that really happens, it means that the war situation has reached an extremely tense moment.

Before that, "Shoot!" came from the direction of the central military, like a dense flock of birds flying high into the sky, and dense arrow clusters flashing with cold light were thrown out, covering the color of the sky. This was from the first line of defense. The powerful firepower of the crossbowmen of the Imperial Central Army in the rear penetrated the attack, and 20,000 Thousands of imperial crossbowmen, with arrows as dense as raindrops, threw lines of death at high altitudes and fell towards the front of the Gallic light cavalry. At that moment, it was like huge waves hitting the hard rock wall. Above, the dense clouds formed by arrow clusters violently bombarded the Gauls' assault cavalry group without any hindrance.

"Neigh" The war horse that was hit by the arrow was neighing violently, and the huge body splashed with terrifying bright red,

"Puff, puff, puff!" The metal arrows pierced the flesh of the light cavalry who were only wearing thin mail, making a terrible sound of the flesh being torn apart and the bones being pierced. Such sounds came one after another, and the horses rolled and fell to the ground while running, raising smoke and dust. Gallic light cavalry penetrated all over the body Full of arrow clusters, they fell from the war horse, and blood flowed from the position of the helmet on the head. The entire strong attack momentum was suddenly like a spear head that was violently broken, tilted and inserted into the soil, but this soil was gurgling. A human body with blood pouring out,

Of the tens of thousands of light cavalry, less than two-thirds were able to rush out of the thunder god's explosion area. Under the heavy rain of arrows, the formation of the light cavalry became thin again. Teams of hussars rolled over and ran at the front of the queue. Viscount Atua had seven or eight arrow clusters inserted into his body, and the arrow clusters stopped. The light cavalry behind him fell one after another, and no one survived. He was the only one who kept moving forward bravely like an immortal body. Two more sharpshooters shot him in the body and head until he rushed out of the 100-meter-high barrier. After a short distance, Viscount Atua on horseback got off his horse.

The horse that had lost its owner turned its head and stuck out its tongue to lick its owner's hand, which was covered in blood. The corpse's feet were still hanging on the horse's back, and were also driven around. The Falcon Army on the opposite side also looked solemnly moved. Artu Viscount Ya will himself His legs were firmly tied to the stirrups. At least two arrow clusters shot through his chest and stomach. The arrow clusters on his head were spread out by his helmet. Blood stained the saddle from his trouser legs. At first, he I have no intention of dismounting alive.

"Atua!"

Algernonkaja, who was watching the battle from a distance, had bloodshot eyes. His fingers held the reins of the horse tightly, and his body was trembling slightly. Atua, who attacked with a death wish, in order to break through the swamp problem, Atua The secret came to him and expressed his willingness to use himself as bait to clear the way for the army.

The light cavalry completed the difficult task assigned to them within a period of time. Successfully attracted the long-range suppressive power of the Falcon Army to the swamp area. When the Falcon Army's thunder gods and arrow clusters exploded crazily among the light cavalry, and when the arrow clusters penetrated the body of the lightly armored light cavalry, in Behind the smoke billowing from the Thunder God, unable to see clearly from the Falcon Army, a group of 100,000 Northern Army infantrymen was rapidly crossing a thousand meters of swampland, when the sound in front stopped. The infantry at the back suddenly became nervous. When the smoke cleared, the ground in the distance was filled with corpses of horses and light cavalry. Broken limbs were scattered everywhere, but no one fled. In the direction they fell, their heads were facing forward, and several bloody horses were lingering next to their master's body.

The cost of this strategy was that none of the 10,000 light cavalry survived, but the price was worth it. The low morale of the Northern Army was instantly stimulated, and the tragic light cavalry made the infantry behind them red-eyed. The soldiers endured the grief in their hearts and accelerated towards the front. Their time was accumulated with the corpses of light cavalry. Every second they spent, light cavalry were dying and bleeding. These guys knew that it was impossible to survive. But he had to act extremely relaxed before going into battle.

The hands of the infantrymen holding weapons were trembling, and their hearts were bleeding. A stroll turned into a trot, and finally turned into a crazy and desperate run. In front of them, shouting that the whole army was charging, they followed closely behind the light cavalry. The 30,000 Gaulish light infantry were like a huge wave crashing into a dike. The shields of the light infantry collided heavily with the Falcon Army on the opposite side. The shields of the light infantry collided with the dense forest of spears in front. Blood exploded between the two armies in an instant.

"The Gauls are crazy!"

When the Southern Governor Stetunko saw the scene ahead, his mind suddenly became confused. Facing the solid heavy infantry of the Southern Army, the charging Gallic light infantry used their shields to protect their chests, and then slammed into them with their bodies regardless of anything, "Advance, advance!" Ignoring the sharp The heavy rifles of the infantry penetrated the bodies of the companions in front, and blood mixed with bones and debris spattered on their faces. The Gallic light infantry rushed forward like crazy, relying on brute force to shake the heavy infantry's defense line.

They were like a swarm of ants biting into a sugar cube. They were so dense that even the corpse at the front could not fall. They did not care about casualties and were not afraid of sacrifice. The 30,000 light infantry seemed to be superimposed on top of each other, so dense that they could not be counted. Just like this, layers of pressure were pressed on a certain point on the defense line. Under this ultra-close push and collision, the heavy infantry of the Southern Army that was caught off guard was actually pushed back, as if they were being pushed around in a storm. The undulating hull, the entire defense line heaving up and down, corpses piled up in front of the battle line,

"Boom: A sound of thunder, which seemed to be impacted by the hostility of the world. The sky had been gloomy for several days. After a series of thunder booms, white raindrops began to fall. Soon the light rain turned into heavy rain, turning the earth into a The mud makes the surroundings seem to be covered with a layer of white gauze

"It's rain, it's raining!"

The Union soldiers who passed through the swamp suddenly burst into cheers. Everyone thought this was a sign of victory from God. Algernon Katja held his head high, and the cold rain hit his face and his armor. , turned into a chill and flowed down his neck. His hand holding the riding crop was trembling slightly, but his eyes were shining with excitement, and he murmured in a low voice at the corner of his mouth, it was raining really hard. . . . . , under such heavy rain, the power of the Falcon Army's Thor will be greatly reduced, which is a reversible power for a breakout battle.

"The whole army attacks! Crush them!"

Algernon Katya decisively risked everything. If this was God's favor, then those who wasted it would be the sinners of the hundreds of thousands of Northern troops. Raindrops fell on the fat man's face at the same time. The emperor subconsciously touched He touched his face and felt a little cold. He shook off the rain and his face became serious. This rain was really a timely rain for the Gallic Northern Army who was trapped in a desperate fight! His black eyes looked a little different,

The heavy rain brought unexpected changes to the battle situation. Thor's resistance to the infantry group became minimal in the heavy rain. In the end, even the sporadic explosions stopped. Thor, a big killer against the infantry group, withdrew from the battle early. , and then Statunko's Southern Army will become an important attack point for the Northern Army of Gaul. The heavy infantry of the Southern Army is good at defense, but without much support, if it wants to face several times the enemy's impact, it will be difficult to survive. It's difficult,

"Come here, order Salon to close the flanks!"

Fatty adjusted his encirclement strategy in advance and quickly mobilized the left wing of the Saronian Army to approach from the side, forming a pincer attack on the Gallic Northern Army that was attacking the right wing.

After receiving the order, the Salon Army began to move, and the Gallic Northern Army also sent troops to block it. They were the Eighth Infantry Regiment and the Third Infantry Regiment of Gaul specially arranged by Algernon Katja. With a total of 27,000 elite troops, although the Salon Army has the upper hand, it is difficult to break through and reinforce for a while.

The war situation has fallen into an unfavorable situation for the Falcon Army.

The only assistance that Stetunko's Southern Army can get is currently only the crossbowmen of the Imperial Central Army where the central army is located. They are shooting wildly at the soldiers of the Northern Gallic Army who are swarming on the opposite side, but the Gallic army is in a melee. It became more and more difficult for the crossbowmen to aim at the target, and the fierce battle continued to heat up. Both sides almost tried their best. Three hours later, the front of the Southern Army was already covered with mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The heavy infantry in the front row were exhausted and were killed one after another. Replacement troops. Almost all of them were maimed. Those who persisted in the front relied on their tenacious will and strong combat power to hold on desperately under the fierce attack of the Gallic Northern Army, which was several times their own size.

In the heavy rain full of mud and blood, the Imperial Cavalry, the last trump card of the Empire, began to charge. The sound of galloping horse hooves sounded like rolling thunder in the heavy rain. The 20,000 Imperial Cavalry who had been waiting for a long time were attacked by Hu Keqili. Under his leadership, he launched a forceful attack from the Gallic Northern Army's testing side, which was in a state of exhaustion.

The ground shook violently at this moment. The galloping cavalry was like a black iron wall forcing its way into the side of the Northern Gallic Army. "Kill" Hu Keqili slashed the head of a Northern Gallic Army soldier with the sword in his hand. Yellow and white brains mixed with blood flowed from his head. Exploded out, behind Hu Keqili, hundreds of falcon cavalry rolled up their killing swords and mercilessly chopped off the heads of the Gallic soldiers blocking them. Following the impact knife, thousands of Falcon light cavalry followed. The war horses were like thunder, as unstoppable as the iron flow, and the countless iron hoof war knives were like sharp knives, being cut open along a certain incision visible to the naked eye, revealing the bright red flesh inside.

"Go forward and stop them!" The Gallic Northern Army, which was already red-eyed, refused to be overwhelmed by the momentum of the Falcon Cavalry and insisted on standing still and erecting a gun array. He was immediately overwhelmed by the torrent of flying swords.

"My lord, the Falcon Army cavalry is dispatched!" A cavalryman galloped over.

"Got it, order the First Infantry Regiment to attack as planned!" Algernonkaja nodded solemnly on his horse,

The Falcon Empire's cavalry is the most terrifying unit in this battle. It is also the most terrifying trump card in the opponent's hand, not to mention that the opponent is the Imperial Military God who is famous for his cavalry assault. In Biye Valley, he once experienced this Military God's terrifying and keen ability to grasp the opportunity of a fighter.

The cavalry was the biggest obstacle to this breakout. Just as the light cavalry were prepared to die to open the way, another unit was also prepared to die to resist this trump card, and that was Algernonkaja's personal troops. The 1st Infantry Regiment of the Northern Army has a total of 13,000 people. From captain to infantry leader, it is entirely composed of Imperial Guards. The soldiers are also veterans with rich experience in the Northern War. In order to In response to the assault of the Falcon Empire cavalry, the First Infantry Regiment had deployed a dense array of spears on the flanks in advance, with four-meter-long special spears. As the order was issued, the four-meter spears were picked up by the soldiers with serious expressions. , in an instant, a forest composed of countless spears appeared in front of the imperial cavalry led by Hu Keqili. Their goal was only one, to turn everything that hit them into pieces.

The speed of the Falcon Empire cavalry group was so fast. Many cavalry rushed into the collapsed Gallic soldiers. They didn't even see the situation clearly before they ran into them. "Kill!" The leader of the first infantry regiment kept his spear in order. Strutting forward, the men and horses were pierced by the four-meter spear at the same time. Blood exploded from the exposed spear tip. The horse was covered in blood and plunged into the spear group of the 1st Gallic Infantry Regiment with inertia, and the cavalry on top was thrown away. Falling on the countless rising spears in front, the blood spread like flowers

"There is a spear formation ahead! Pay attention." The Falcon cavalry behind were startled. Their eyes were completely filled with protruding spears. Hu Keqi reined in the horse fiercely, and looked hesitant for a moment. The enemy in front of him There are too many. Although it is impossible to determine the thickness of the spear array, it can be seen from the firm eyes of these soldiers holding four-meter spears that they are definitely the elite of the Gallic Northern Army. Facing the four-meter long spear in the opponent's hand, Rifle. It would be very disadvantageous for us to bump into him rashly.

"Put up the flag of death! Tell Hu Keqili and Salon that in this battle, the enemy's obstruction must be defeated!" The fat man stood on the heights of the Central Army's second line of defense with a serious expression, watching the cavalry cluster appear on the flanks of Gaul. situation, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, the battle situation has already At the most critical moment, the outcome lies in whether the Gauls overwhelm Statunko's southern army and successfully break through at a heavy cost, or whether Hukoqili's imperial cavalry overwhelm the Gallic flanks and defeat the Saronian army that is approaching at the same time. Forming an encirclement of 100,000 Northern Gallic troops,

"Sir, this is the death flag of the central army!" A captain of the Falcon Empire cavalry pointed at the flag flying in the sky in the distance and shouted loudly. On the eleventh day of the Battle of Danni, the situation of the battle became confusing because of the sudden rain.
