Realm of Power

It was already daylight on the river bank. Feishan's Eighth Army and Seventh Army, which had broken down from the front, seized the slopes on the side of the river. They were being attacked by more than 100,000 Istani people who had just escaped from the desperate situation of death. There were about 10,000 people in front of them. Istan's spear and heavy shield. Then came the main force of the pressure formation. The three troops at the front and rear were each a hundred meters apart. The pressure group was like a ferocious long snake, taking turns attacking the Eighth Army's defense line. It was obvious that they wanted to rely on their military superiority to push the enemy forward. The Eighth Army's weak defense line was defeated frontally, and then a strangulation encirclement was formed in this river beach area.

"Sir, it's the Ninth Army!"

A Feishan general looked at the waving Feishan military flag on the other side of the river. A large number of infantrymen wearing Feishan military uniforms were approaching the river like a mountain. His face suddenly showed uncontrollable excitement, and he even cheered with the soldiers next to him. , I thought I would be trapped and die in this river. Even if reinforcements arrived, it would take at least two to three days, and there might even be no reinforcements coming at all. How could I not be excited when I suddenly saw my own people at this moment? abnormal

"Ninth Army?"

In front of him, Furlong, commander of the Feishan Seventh Army, also saw the Feishan Kingdom's Ninth Army appearing on the other side of the river. His resolute face was immediately covered with a layer of haze. How did the Ninth Army come? Even if they got the news and moved all the way to the Aristide River, they shouldn't be so relaxed and calm. The whole army was so strict, and it was clear at a glance that there was no obstruction from the Falcon Emperor along the way], w≦ww., like this The situation made Furlong's heart sink slightly, although Although his position is not very high, and he is not in charge of the military affairs department responsible for the overall strategy, he also knows that the Feishan Kingdom's troops are currently here in the coastal area. Once they are besieged or nailed here, it will take three to four days. Within, Feishan's coastal area was completely blank. The Falcon Emperor can completely arrange the Feishan Coast into a battlefield dominated by himself during this period of time.

"Send someone to contact the Ninth Army immediately and find out the situation!"

Furlong said loudly to the messenger behind him with a serious expression. His eyes fell thoughtfully on the tumbling river. Heavy rain had been falling for several days, and the water in the river had already overflowed most of the river beach, making it much wider than usual. There are many times more, blocking the advance of the army, but if you look for one or two soldiers with good water skills, you can still cross this rolling river.

anyway. He had to first figure out what was going on with the Ninth Army. In this river with surging waves, Furlong felt a sense of crisis that made his hair stand on end. This was not the right situation! , the Falcon Empire suddenly broke out and launched an all-out attack. Naturally, it could not be just to give Fei Shan a show of strength.

Everyone knows how crazy and aggressive the Falcon Empire's combat style is once it takes action. He has never been in the habit of holding back. The Battle of Gangfei, the day-and-night battle in the Great Lakes region that changed everything, was launched suddenly by the Falcon Emperor. He devoured more than 100,000 Central and European Barrow coalition forces in one go, causing the Congo Empire to completely fall. The decisive battle for Central and European Barrow's hegemony also faced the Hungarian army with a strength of nearly half a million. In just three days, with only 200,000 troops, the emperor slaughtered the previously aggressive troops in one fell swoop. The arrogant 300,000 Hungarian Western Army forced another Hungarian main force, the Eastern Army, to surrender. It could be said that it was a sudden change of hands, and the opportunity for Hungary's rise that had been accumulated for decades was suddenly cut off!

If you are facing the Istani army whose position has been completely confused, this may happen, but you are facing the powerful troops known as Obarro, who once defeated Gaul and killed Gangfei. In terms of combat, With such rich experience, the entire continent has never seen such an opponent or such an enemy. How could such a serious mistake be made?

Will the opponent sit back and watch the Ninth Army safely rescue them, letting the results of the all-out attack go to waste? How is that possible! Absolutely not! There must be something wrong somewhere. There must be something wrong with the Ninth Army!

Furlong's fingers clenched together unconsciously! The order was given, and soon a few soldiers who were familiar with water properties were selected. They took off their armor, jumped into the swirling torrent in front of them, and swam towards the opposite side of the river. The figures were rising and falling in the rolling waves. Even if the water properties were good, in this situation It is also difficult to guarantee that you can swim to the right side alive in a flood that is 60 to 70 meters wide. Some people jumped down and swam to the middle and then returned because they were exhausted. Some people were engulfed by the strong waves while thrashing. Only a few people actually arrived. They rolled onto the other side in embarrassment and were almost completely exhausted by the Ninth Army scouts on the opposite side. After dragging them to the river beach, it took more than ten minutes for the news to come back from the other side.

Furlong's mental arithmetic was a little more relaxed. After all, Rousseau of the Ninth Army was also a veteran on the battlefield, and his style could be called cautious. Otherwise, he would not have been the final anchor of Fei Shan's three carriages in the coastal area. Being able to take on such a responsibility, naturally It’s not like entering rashly, facing the seventh and eighth When the army asked for help, Rousseau rushed to the rescue all the way, and scouts were constantly released. Whenever they encountered dangerous areas on the road ahead, they would only lead the army forward after receiving reports from the scouts. It was not unsteady, but even so, it was still like this along the way. What does it mean to be blocked by the Falcon Emperor?

There is indeed a huge loophole in Falcon Emperor's layout! Although I don’t know the reason, the facts are clearly there. There is a problem with the Falcon Emperor’s siege. It should be due to insufficient troops or a coordination problem! The Ninth Army fought all the way without encountering any resistance from the Emperor. The Ninth Army's scouts were released twenty miles into the river, and no traces of the Emperor's ambush troops were found in the future. This is really interesting! Furlong looked at the Istan army with bright eyes. The black cavalry group had not launched an attack since arriving at the river bank. He thought that the opponent had spent so much effort and made such a flaw in such a joint that the battle was ultimately impossible. After achieving the victory, he couldn't help but let out a mocking smile. The commander of the Falcon Emperor, who was known as the number one in Oparo, was nothing more than that! "Sir, the Ninth Army has requested cover. They have to build a pontoon bridge with all their strength!" The returning soldier was panting with water all over his body. "I understand. Order the whole army to use all their strength to cover the Ninth Army's building of a pontoon bridge!" Furlong nodded, standing next to him. There was a commotion. "Look, what is that?" The soldiers were talking a lot, and suddenly a fiery red fireball slowly rose above the black cavalry that had been holding the line still. The tail of the red ball was trailing a red tail, which was particularly eye-catching on this battlefield. With this, At the same time, bursts of trombone sounds were heard from the Istanbul army.

Wuwu, the shrill sound pierced the sky. As if the wind was moving, "Is this going to attack with all strength?" someone whispered. Although the Istanbul army was suppressed by him all the way, after suddenly turning around, it also burst out with staggering combat effectiveness. These were forced into The Istani people in desperate situation are now like ferocious beasts with red eyes. After all, they have a scale of more than 100,000 people. If they really press with all their strength, they will definitely be overwhelming. "Put your guns up. Hold on!"

The Feishan soldiers in front formed a formation. They may have been chased all the way by Feishan's army. The soldiers' courage and courage were at their lowest point, so that the Feishan people ignored that it was this army that continued to move westward for a hundred years. expansion, the Feishan Kingdom devoted almost all its energy and financial resources to fight against it. Five years ago, this army also powerfully seized the Eastern Province, known as the kingdom's barrier, from Feishan, and slaughtered more than 50,000 Feishan's troops. Shocking the entire Obaro, this army invaded the capital of Gangfei a year ago, causing the people of Gangfei to fall from the pedestal of the empire. Half a month ago, this army divided into two groups and occupied one-third of Feishan's territory. It was so overwhelming that hundreds of thousands of Feishan troops could hardly breathe.

At this time, the battlefield was suddenly turned upside down. The soldiers were still unable to react and scattered all the way to the river. Forced to death, Fei Shanjun also began to come back to his senses, but so what? The emperor of the Istani people died, and high-level officials rebelled. Now they can't even return to their homeland. They have been completely cut off from all supplies. Even with the help of the Falcon Empire, they are already at the end of their efforts and are irreversibly defeated. Now they can What was presented was just a fight to the death. It's just a posture, otherwise, they would have rushed up just now. Now the Ninth Army's rescue has arrived. Although the river is wide, it only takes three or four hours to build the pontoon bridge with the efforts of tens of thousands of people from the Ninth Army. In three or four hours, the opponent will definitely not be able to eat him!

In this battle, as long as we can persist until the pontoon bridge is completed, we will win! "Instruct the Eighth Army to come closer to me!" Furlong's face was determined! The hand holding the riding crop couldn't help but tighten. This was a sign that the Istan army was preparing to attack in full force. It was simply a daydream for the Istan people to use this battle to turn the tide of the war. Even if the Falcon Emperor was involved, it would not matter until the main force of the kingdom. Once it arrives, the other party will not be able to escape the fate of destruction.

Feeling the imminent pressure of the Istanbul Army on the opposite side, the infantry group of Feishan's Eighth Army also became a little commotion. "Don't be chaotic, the enemy dare not come up yet!" The officers of Feishan's Eighth Army tried their best to suppress the commotion. Feishan's Eighth Army, which lost two-thirds of its strength due to the withdrawal of its main formation, still has about 15,000 men at this moment. Several attacks by the Istanbul Army were beaten back, and Feishan's Seventh Army was beaten back. As for the strength of the army, Fei Shan also has more than 40,000 troops on the river. This kind of strength is enough to last three or four hours! As long as you escape from this river, what else can the opponent do besides watching with your eyes! Everyone seems to think so. Invisibly, the morale of Fei Shan's army that had been defeated earlier has also recovered a lot.

There was another ear-splitting sound, and the third red fireball that quickly shot up into the sky exploded in the air, like three red flowers blooming suddenly in a row. At that moment, Istan, who was moving forward on the opposite side, The army suddenly stopped, and countless Istani spears were dropped in the distance like a forest,

"Array!" More than 100,000 Istanbul soldiers shouted in unison. Dozens of strict military formations opened up and opened up. It was like mountains of sharp spears pressing on the opposite side, and the armor rubbed against each other as the formation marched. At the same time, the sound was like the sound of wind coming from the morning mist on the opposite side, making people tremble in their hearts.

The heavy infantry's shields were lined up in front, and a heavy gun used for attacking fortified areas was leveled from the gap between the shields. Killing intent was revealed from the entire attacking front line.

The atmosphere of the whole world felt a sense of solidification in front of such an array. At this moment, the eyes of two centuries-old enemies looked at each other a hundred meters apart, with blood-colored pupils. At the same time, the Istan army formed a formation like a black hole. , after slowly opening it, a group of black heavy-armored cavalry, like a nightmare, slowly emerged from behind the Istan infantry queue, "It's the Imperial heavy cavalry!"

The soldiers in the front line of Fei Shan's army who had just calmed down were making a sound of panic. It was this heavy cavalry that killed Fei Shan's Eighth Army with unstoppable killing power in less than an hour, leading to the collapse of the Eighth Army. At this moment, it was again In front of the huge impact triangle that unfolded, there was a mountain of heavy armor, murderous intent, and the pressure that came from it was no less than a burst of wind that cut into the face, stinging the face and causing pain. Even from a hundred meters away, in all directions In the ear of an Istan soldier. It seems that the vests of these heavily armored war horses also made a squeaking sound when they paused. The steel killing formations wrapped in these armors pressed heavily on the chests of Feishan soldiers like a nightmare. "Don't be afraid, they There are not many people! Ten people are enough to deal with one! "

Officers Fei Shan cheered up the soldiers with pale faces, although they themselves did not believe that relying on the light infantry of the Eighth Army could stop the ferocious horse hooves of these ferocious steel beasts. Under the black iron helmets, the imperial cavalry were full of killing. and slightly sinister eyes. The heavily armored war horses were kicking the ground. Everyone felt the murderous aura bred in the silence and swallowed nervously, "No matter what, we must block it!" Furlong could hear the general beside him. They made a sound of gasping. On such a flat river beach, the impact of the Empire's heavy cavalry would definitely be fatal, but luckily. The number of such heavy cavalry is limited, otherwise, I will really take the lead and jump into the river! Look, what is that! Right now. An attendant on the other side suddenly pointed at the river in the distance and shouted. The attendant's voice made everyone look away and saw the rolling upstream corner of the river. There were several small black dots. Because they were too far away, everyone was stunned for a moment.

"That seems to be...a battleship?"

General Feishan's face looked as if he had seen a ghost. Didn't it mean that there is no situation within twenty miles? Judging from the distance of these small black spots, they are only two or three miles away at most. Are the scouts of the Ninth Army blind?

At this moment, the faces of General Fei Shan, including Furlong, all changed colors. Everyone knew the sharpness of the Imperial battleships. Even though the Imperial battleships were small in size, each one was a giant turret loaded with weapons. In such a river, putting these huge weapons that can even shake the ocean is simply a killing sweep for the enemy." Immediately tell the Ninth Army to evacuate and leave me alone. We! Otherwise we will all die together!" Furlong shouted angrily. If you can't see this now, you are really stupid. If the other party has imperial warships, they would have launched it if they wanted to destroy them. In front of the ferocious beasts in the sea wearing iron armor and carrying a door to destroy the thunder god, any land soldier is the target of being killed. "You bastard, you are being used!"

Furlong's body was shaking, and his eyes were so angry that they were about to burst. No wonder, there was no force to stop the Ninth Army along the way. That's because there was no need at all. This was a dead land. From the beginning, the opponent's goal was to be in Waiting for the Ninth Army, and the bait is yourself! The opponent wants to annihilate all three legions that have pushed the kingdom into the coastal area. It's so cruel!

The Ninth Army also saw black spots flowing down the river from the upper reaches. When they saw the ferocious outline of the imperial battleship revealed about a thousand meters away, Rousseau's face looked as ugly as if someone had punched him. There are no enemies for twenty miles. What a ridiculous mockery. The Falcon Empire has sailed such a large warship into the river. I still naively thought that Everything goes well." Sir, the other side asked us to give up the rescue and evacuate immediately!" "Evacuate? How to evacuate!" Rousseau's face was ugly, and he looked at the half-built pontoon bridge on the river with bitter eyes. The number of his ninth army Thousands of people were scattered on the river beach, and the enemy's warships were swarming down the river, arriving in the blink of an eye. Evacuation at this time was not easy.

If you have a pair of eyes looking at the overall situation from the sky at this time, you will find that in a 100-meter lake formed by a huge tributary of the river in a section of the curved Aristi River two or three miles away, one after another Imperial Dragon Teeth battleships are unveiling. The water plants covering the battleship were opened, revealing the ferocious triangular bow. The gun bay baffles on the side were also opened like scales, revealing the black Thor muzzle, like a fierce dragon awakening from its slumber, revealing despairingly huge fangs

In September, the rain-covered lake surface was almost completely covered by wild grass growing on the lakeside. More than a dozen imperial warships were docked inside. Unless the other party could cross the river and reveal the camouflage in person, even if they were within fifty meters No trace could be seen, not to mention that Fei Shanjun's scouts couldn't even cross the river, let alone go to the other side of the river to find out! Moreover, Fei Shan would not have thought that this small direct-current lake would lurk these ferocious beasts that only appear in the ocean. The situation of the battle was completely tilted at this moment.
