Realm of Power

Main text 2014 Po Jun (IV)

The Ruela Army was already red-eyed when they saw that the Fifth Army's camp was trampled by the Imperial Cavalry. Now tens of thousands of people were pulled out in one breath, and the ground was full of mourning soldiers. The number of soldiers was more than double that of the Imperial Cavalry opposite them. Although they were all Infantry, but the morale of the soldiers has been so high that they dare to directly open field camps with the imperial cavalry, as front-line heavy troops. The heavily armored troops holding spiked infantry shields stared straight ahead with blazing eyes. There was no possibility of being timid. The blood of the Ruila army had been aroused, and the array of tens of thousands of people exuded a bloodthirsty and ferocious aura. ,

At this moment, Marquis Fit hoped that the Falcon Army cavalry would be dazzled by the previous victory, become complacent, and directly attack his infantry group in an attempt to severely defeat the entire coalition battalion. The flags were fluttering, and each flag was covered with Rila's sword-leaf coat of arms. Under each flag was the absolutely fearless momentum of Rilla soldiers. Military spirit can be written on the face of Marquis Fite in four words. It's full of stuff,

Although the Ruila Army lost its fifth legion, it still had more than 60,000 infantry and more than 5,000 cavalry. This time it pulled out 40,000 people at once. The best of the best, the heavy-armed White Steel Army was mobilized in full force. Naturally, It is their duty to become the spearhead of this counterattack. The white steel armored column has always fought to the end. The latter person has the title of Steel Army who will never back down, but this title was completely shattered by the Falcon Emperor in the border battle. The White Steel Army with a strength of 50,000 actually collapsed in the Falcon Army's blocking battle. This naked humiliation has long become a shame that is engraved in the hearts of the entire Baigang Army. Now that he received the order to attack, he raised his weapons and shouted in unison, "White steel armored column, advance or retreat!" The sound shocked everyone.

"Advance!" the white steel heavy infantrymen wearing pointed helmets shouted and marched in neatly, followed by other infantry groups on both sides, the blades of the armor colliding together, like an unstoppable torrent of close formations, with many people and strength, the Ruila Army Soldiers have long put aside the idea of ​​infantry being inferior to cavalry;

That's what's on everyone's mind. No matter how fierce the cavalry on the opposite side is, can they still use their war horses to disperse the Miyun spears in front of the heavy array? So what if we really dive in?

The opponent is just an assault cavalry. Under the surprise attack, it was enough to drive the scattered troops into the camp, but it was necessary to overwhelm the formation and kill the generals, and directly defeat the formation. Unless the opponent presses forward completely regardless of casualties, and uses the sacrifice of countless cavalry to open up a flesh-and-blood corridor leading directly to the formation, it would have been possible just now, but now, this is absolutely impossible!

The infantry formation may be disadvantaged by the mobility of the cavalry, but if it is arrayed for battle and the morale of the army is high, it must be like a mountain of iron shields and a forest of spears. Now the anger of Ruila's entire army was at its peak. At this time, even the heavy cavalry dared to fight to the death, let alone these assault cavalry who mainly used bayonet as their main weapon.

The double-layer armor of the white steel heavy infantry is a cylindrical heavy armor specially designed to suppress the spear lance. All key joints are covered with armor plates. The outer cover is the overall heavy armor, and the inner part is pierced with dense locking ring armor. The lance can penetrate through it. Once it is one layer, it will be stuck by the lock ring armor. At most, it's just half a foot sharp.

This kind of harm. If it were not hit in fatal parts such as the head, heart, liver, and spleen, the heavy infantry would not be killed. It would be the opponent's assault cavalry's turn to die. There is no trick for infantry to kill cavalry. It is nothing more than slowing down the opponent's horse speed and relying on manpower. Pile the opponent to death. As long as the cavalry's horse power has a brief pause or is entangled by the infantry below, the surrounding infantry groups will instantly chop the cavalry into pieces. Stab into a gourd of blood,

Salon, who had received the order to lure the enemy, would not be stupid enough to challenge Rila's army.

"Damn, the opponent is desperate!" Salonle turned his horse and glanced at the corner of his mouth. The result of this assault was huge. Half of the coalition camp was destroyed, and nearly 50,000 enemies were killed and injured. The defeated army was countless, burned and captured. The heavy equipment of the coalition forces was piled up like a mountain, but there was no time to even count it.

For Salon, the joy of such a huge victory only lasted a short moment in his heart. Faced with the complete defeat of the main force of more than 100,000 coalition troops, this is only half of it. Almost everyone under his cavalry has scars, and exhaustion is written on everyone's face. Even if they can still break through the Ruila army formation in front of them, they will not be able to defeat it. The energy continued to move forward, barely forming a team, and the flags of each army were flying. However, regardless of whether they were dismounted or dismounted, many cavalrymen were staggering around, and many were gasping for air. These were composed of veterans. Some cavalrymen recruited in the Southwest District were even more unbearable. They were so tired that they lay on their horses.

For these Southwest Cavalrymen who were new to the battlefield, they were high-spirited at first, but they soon discovered that fighting and killing people was also an exhausting task. If they are too weak, they cannot break the armor, but if they are too strong, their weapons may jam. It's impossible to pull it out from the target bone without gritting your teeth and exerting all your strength.

Heavy snow fell one after another, landing on Salon's shoulders. After a while, his shoulders were covered with snowflakes. The cold wind blew against his face, and even Salon's beard was covered with ice edges. But he opened his bloodshot one eye and stared at the approaching Ruila Army. The Imperial Assault Cavalry, more than a hundred meters away from the front of the Ruila Army, began to retreat while firing with crossbows, and the arrows hit The frontal shield wall of the White Steel Legion was bounced off in pieces.

"Go forward, charge forward!"

The Ruila people accelerated their advance, and the white steel heavy infantry even used up all their strength to struggle forward in the heavy snow. Hold your shield to protect your head and face, and you can't care about the others, "Archer!" The Rila people's archery team also came up. At this point in the battle, the Rila army was already full of momentum. The Falcon Emperor *The cavalry were suppressed and retreated continuously. Suddenly a war horse whined and fell to the ground. The imperial cavalry on horseback fell from above, and the war horse fell out immediately. He rolled up covered in snow, trying desperately to pull his mount up. The war horse was covered in sweat, snoring feebly, and its legs were weak and could not stand up. The cavalry gritted his teeth and stabbed hard. He heard the horse whine and lay down in the snow without moving. The cavalry gritted his teeth, put away his sword, and ran back.

"Hail, victory!"

The cheers of the Ruila army were like a tsunami and the mountains collapsed. In the eyes of the Ruila people, this was a sign of the collapse of the imperial cavalry. Anyone with a discerning eye could see it. The war horse was completely exhausted. Are the cavalry on the opposite side so exhausted? There was an unconcealable joy on Marquis Fit's face. If it was the courage inspired by blood just now, now he has seen the heroic glory of his ancestors who saved the fate of Barrow in Central Europe. It is falling steadily on my head,

"You bastard recruit!" The veteran of the Imperial Cavalry saw this scene. There were roars and curses, but it was still time to turn. The Rila people’s infantry queue was already pressing forward.

"Long looked at it with a stern look, and the faces of the generals gathered behind him were ashen. Although they were ordered to lure the enemy, everyone hoped to evacuate decently. Now that they were disturbed by this new soldier, everyone felt ashamed. In the light, Salon looked up at the sky and watched the snowflakes falling from the blue-gray sky. He did not pay attention to the scene just now and said in a solemn voice, "Let's retreat too!" Everyone attacked with all their strength. It will be difficult to maintain the momentum after retreating. But it is true that all the cavalry are exhausted. The coalition's twenty-mile camp is really too long. The front started from Edgar West and ran fifty miles in one go. , plus 30,000 assault cavalry divided into units of 500 people. Everyone divides and intersperses to drive the broken army into the camp, which requires constant back and forth attacks. Such three or four hours of continuous fierce fighting has reached the limit of men and horses. Although I don't want to admit it in my heart, our army is indeed unable to move forward."

"Sir, the Falcon Emperor* wants to run away!"

In the Ruila army formation, a general shouted in the ear of Marquis Fit,

Marquis Fit didn't say anything. No one expected that the Falcon Cavalry would be so vulnerable to a fight, but that's true. The scene just now fully exposed the exhausted situation of the Falcon army. The horses were exhausted and the cavalry had to kill their beloved horses themselves. This was not something that could be performed just by acting. Under the pressure of Rilla's heavily arrayed army, If the horses are so frightened that they run to death, what else will happen?

"Sir, order a full-scale counterattack!" The generals were unsteady, and they all gathered next to Marquis Fit. One general took a breath and said, "Sir, the main force of the Falcon Emperor has collapsed. If you have a fighter in front, you are risking your life." We have to take a gamble... If the imperial cavalry can safely evacuate and attack again next time, it is hard to say whether our army will have such a chance..."

Marquis Fit's face tightened and he remained silent. The Falcon Cavalry in front of him was dying, but who could guarantee that there were no more troops behind these cavalry. Now they were arrayed to fight, and their morale was full. You can fight to the death with the opponent's cavalry group, and even get a slight upper hand. Once the pursuit is ordered, the army formations will disperse. What should you do if you are attacked by the Falcon Army again?

"My lord, you can't hesitate any longer. The opponent is cavalry and we are infantry. If we can't make a decision on the spot, everything will be over when the opponent gathers again. If you don't dare, my subordinates are willing to lead our troops to pursue! Life or death depends on fate. The decision Don't drag me down!" A general couldn't bear it anymore and said righteously, looking like he was determined to fight to the death.

"If Mr. Fit is concerned, you can adopt the method of advancing each army in order. Even if there is any change, the army will have time to deal with it!" A general suggested this. Marquis Fit is the commander of the Rila Army, and he is also the first army of the Kingdom of Rila. God, without his nod, the generals would not dare to act rashly, but the monstrous achievement of defeating the main force of the Falcon Emperor is right in front of them! How many people can be as stable as Mount Tai? Even if they offend the God of War of the Rayla Army, they still have to fight. Once they can't figure out the true and false status of the Falcon Army, the hearts of the Rayla generals begin to get excited.

At first it was a desperate fight in anger, but now what I'm thinking about is whether I can show off the majesty of my ancestors who turned the tide a hundred years ago.

The Falcon Army has lost its energy and has given up on the plan to continue to gather. Instead, even the battle flags in the army have turned and run away. They absolutely do not have the courage to fight with themselves again. This is true escape. No matter what happens next, this battle, Ruila's army is determined to save the situation. Now we just have to see how far it can save the situation and stop it? Or fight back? Or even go out of the Edgar Barrier to the east and end the battle in the north of Congo, so that the Falcon Empire can no longer go south to invade Barrow in Central Europe. How big this situation is and how strong the temptation is, any general on the battlefield can do it Smell out the smell inside,

"Really, are you just looking at it like this?"

"Who says it's not the case? If the Falcon Army really escapes, how can we Rilla people be called heroic descendants!" Seeing Marquis Fit's toughness, the generals expressed their dissatisfaction, and veins erected in Marquis Fit's temples. Hearing this, his face turned red and blue for a while, but changed rapidly several times within a few minutes. People who don't know think he has the special ability of a chameleon. As a battlefield veteran, Marquis Fit is still very good. Otherwise, he would not have been appointed as the commander of the White Steel Legion. It was precisely because of his experience in the Battle of Baluta that he was full of doubts about every move of the Falcon Emperor.

In the battle of Baluta Fortress, the coalition forces were at their peak, their power was overwhelming, and the battle flags were flying like clouds and snow with no end in sight. As a result, Leng was adopted by the Falcon Emperor to introduce the tactics first and then counterattack, and once again created the main force of the coalition forces! Countless coalition baggage was burned. Tens of thousands of injured soldiers died in the flames. When it comes to bullying the enemy, the commander of the Falcon Army is definitely a master, fighting against such an opponent. He may step into a trap at any time without knowing it, but the chance of victory is in front of him. Even he himself thinks that it is unreasonable to just sit back and watch. The Falcon Army has collapsed like this, and there will be no reinforcements.

The scariest thing on the battlefield is luck. Once even the most rigorous generals fall into the trap of luck, they basically lose sight of the danger.

Some people fight to the death and become famous generals, and some famous generals get lucky. Falling into a trap and annihilating the entire army, Fatty asked Salon's 30,000 assault cavalry to evacuate. First, he brought the Rila army in from the strong camp. The other was to make the Rila commander feel lucky.

Under the burning gaze of the generals. Marquis Fit finally raised his hand

"The entire army advances in echelon formation to mop up the remnants of the Falcon army!"

"Yes!" Rilla generals were delighted. Taking orders loudly, agreeing at the same time, they split up and galloped towards their own team.

"Woo!" On the slopes covered with snowflakes, the Ruela trombonist straightened his back, raised the metallic white trombone in his hand mightily, and summoned all his strength to play the long sound of drums and horns. The Ruela army began to move, and the army Under the snow, the white steel of the battle armor flashed like a river of light. The light infantry passed over the heavy infantry as the front line of the echelon, and the light cavalry was like a horizontal slant. The line, with the high morale of the entire army, rolled toward the back end of the camp where countless black smoke was rising. Now everyone in the Ruila army had concluded that the Falcon army was exhausted and even assembly was difficult. All the hunters along the way When the Eagle Army cavalry saw the Ruela Army approaching, they all turned around and ran away in fear as if they were fearless, beating their horses desperately, making people laugh in their embarrassment.

In the main position of the Falcon Army, the Imperial Guards Cavalry gathered behind the slope a few hundred meters away from the coalition camp. After giving the order to Salon to lure the enemy, Fatty led the army to withdraw from the direction of the camp. The whole army stood up, heavily armored. Snowflakes fell on the armor, and soon condensed, making the armor and the submachine gun in the knight's hand look twice as powerful. It was cold to the bone, and groups of cavalry were still mobilizing from the front. News from the front kept coming back. The Guards Cavalry plus the Imperial Heavy Cavalry totaled 18,000 people, stretching out like black clouds in the heavy snow. , all the way to the end of the line of sight, the war horse spurted white air in the cold air, and tossed the frozen soil on the ground with its hooves uneasily,

Salon finally appeared at the top of the slope out of breath. He ran up here in one breath. Even he couldn't bear it, let alone the others. He looked around and immediately led several of his subordinates towards the top. Holding the lookout glass and looking at the fat man approaching from a distance, he was wearing a red general's cloak and stepping on the snow-white earth under his feet. The heavy figure was like a cold wind mountain range, which made people look up inwardly. Salon stopped behind the fat man, stood firm, saluted, and said in a solemn voice, "Ruila's entire army is less than five miles away from here, and my subordinates have already detained him." The flag bearer lures the enemy and orders the troops to gather here! I believe that the Ruila Army will arrive in less than an hour!"

"Thank you for your hard work!" The fat man put down the observation glass, turned around and patted him on the shoulder. His eyes moved and he said, "The first achievement in this battle must be yours, the New Southwest Army. Logically speaking, you attacked for dozens of miles. and immediately plunged into several hours of fierce fighting. We are tired and tired, and now we have completed the important task of luring the enemy. We should let you go down to rest, but what you still need to do now is to form an array here to wait for the arrival of the Ruila army, and to act as bait for our army to make the final blow. ! I wonder if you dare?"

"With Your Majesty here, why don't you dare!" Salon grinned, revealing his white forest teeth. As a confidant of the Lord, it is his duty to work to the death for His Majesty the Emperor. Moreover, Salon also believed that the Ruila army would pursue him. The ashes behind my butt are miles away, I have four legs , the opponent only has two legs, and it is quite rare to be able to reach here in full force. Without a break, it is absolutely impossible to muster up the courage of the infantry to attack the cavalry. Maybe the subordinates can take advantage of the attack of His Majesty's Guards Cavalry. Sometimes, you might get some unexpected credit! After receiving the order, Salon immediately returned to prepare, and the flag of the assembled regiment was erected on the top of the slope. The wind spread, and the scattered cavalry from the Southwest District came closer. This assembled group of cavalry quickly attracted the attention of the Rila people.

"Sir, the enemy has set up a rally flag outside the camp and is gathering scattered cavalry on the slopes!" Rilla ordered the cavalry to gallop to the Marquis of Fit.

"Order the army to speed up. The Falcon Army has lost all its energy! This battle has been decided! Tell all the generals that we will turn the tide like our ancestors' heroes!" The corners of Marquis Fit's mouth were crooked in excitement, and his previous worries had been completely swept away. ,

The fact that the remaining Falcon cavalry only dared to gather secretly outside the camp proved that the enemy had been completely timid. They didn't even have the courage to gather inside the camp and fight to the death. What was there to worry about with such an enemy? (To be continued)
