Main text 2578 Imperial Interests (IX)

"General Omu, can we really win the target?" Prince Feize's voice was a little trembling, but his eyes were bright and frightening. This huge gamble, with the life and death of an army of 200,000 as a bargaining chip, was completely worth it to him. Passive, but since there is no other way, it is better to think on the bright side.

"Your Highness can rest assured. Judging from the current situation, unless a large number of reinforcements arrive from the other side, the fall of King Paput is an unchangeable fact." Omu smiled slightly, showing confidence that everything was under control, and asked the entire army to The choice to attack the capital of Papute was actually made temporarily.

Due to the sudden declaration of war by the eight central countries, the war situation suddenly changed. Fezer's army of 200,000 people who had penetrated into Papt suddenly fell from the prospect of victory to being cut off. There was also a tragic situation in front of the imperial cavalry sharpening their swords. At this moment No matter how you look at it, the road in front of the 200,000 Feize troops is a dead end. If you withdraw, you will be strangled by the Imperial Cavalry Company and the Eight-Nation Allied Forces on the Paput Plateau. If you don't withdraw, your retreat will be cut off, but you can still persist. how long? The consumption of the 200,000-strong army is not a small figure. In addition, the news of the declaration of war by the eight central countries has spread among the army. As long as there is a shortage of food for one day, the 200,000-strong army will completely collapse.

We can’t retreat, we can’t defend, we can only capture and capture the capital of Paput. Although the Kingdom of Paput is only a second-rate small country, since it is the capital of a country, it must also be an area where supplies and people gather. Capture Paput. In the special royal capital, with the huge number of 200,000 Feize troops, even if they face the emperor, they can hold on for a long time. They may not be able to hold on until reinforcements arrive or the two countries start negotiations, so Feize's generals unanimously agreed. plan to seize the royal capital

In the previous military meeting, Omu, as the commander-in-chief of the army, said, "The Falcon Empire in the north believes that our army will inevitably choose to retreat under the current unfavorable circumstances, so it will not arrange reinforcements to rescue the Paput King's capital. Admiral Fetzer Omu's mature and solemn face looked more like a ferocious tiger at the moment, with the breath blowing out from the wings of his nose. With a bloody smell,

Since the order was to attack by force, it would be at all costs, with 200,000 Feize troops totaling six Feize legions. There are strong and weak. When facing the Paput Army in the past, they always lined up the most powerful legions in front, used powerful and focused attacks to open a gap in the Papute Army's defense line, and then swarmed them. And enter. The entire defense line was completely torn apart, and this time, the two weakest legions among the 200,000-strong army were put on the front line to attack the city.

Obviously, these two legions, which are not strong but ranked first, are cannon fodder, and their purpose is to use them to consume the defense thickness and supplies of King Papt's capital.

The commanders of the two legions silently accepted this arrangement. Some things were not said at the meeting, but everyone knew that King Paput was not an easy bone to chew. The plateau kingdom of Paput had been defeated by the enemy three times in history. To the royal capital. In the end, they all failed because of the existence of this strong royal capital. Therefore, the Paput Royal Capital is also a well-known level 6 strong city in the south. There are more than 100,000 combat resources in the city that can be mobilized at any time. If an army of 200,000 is surrounded and slowly consumed, it will take a while to consume Remove the opponent's reserve of defensive materials, and then capture the opponent's outer pillar forts one by one, slowly kneading them like stripping off the clothes of a peerless beauty. It will take at least twenty days to capture this royal capital, but The most lacking thing now is time. The imperial cavalry may go south at any time. The supply shortage caused by the cutoff of the back route will soon become apparent. If we wait until then, everything will be over.

Now the only option is to use violence to break the speed. Press heavy troops to open the gap in the shortest possible time, use human flesh and blood to fill up the opponent's strong city wall, suppress the outer wall, smash open the solid outer shell of Paput King's capital, and use the loss of tens of thousands of troops to fill this thorny road. . Only the victors are qualified to control the fate of this land. We must tell the Northern Falcon Empire that conspiracies and tricks are of no significance to the real war. We must use the fall of the capital of Paput to let them know , I, Feize, with an army of 200,000, are not trash that can be manipulated at will. Don’t compare us with the trash in the Civil War!

"Your Highness, before the Falcon Empire reacts, we need to pull out the tiger's teeth and seize the capital of Paput in one fell swoop. Only then can everyone survive this killing situation. We can only choose to fight to the death and never retreat. In order to The survival of the two hundred thousand troops is at stake. I hope that His Highness can truly fight as a Feize soldier. This is a battlefield. Do you understand, Your Highness?"

"Soldier? I understand."

Hearing Omu's words, his expression was shocked. Prince Feize, who was sitting on the horseback, straightened up unconsciously. His bloodshot eyes stared at the scene of the bloody battle of the army in front, and the tight fingers of the horse's reins. It hurts, but looking at the crenellations in the distance filled with densely packed heads, the discomfort caused by the heavy losses just now has been abandoned far away.

In his eyes, at this moment, there were only countless Fezer soldiers climbing the stairs below the city. There were countless such siege ladders, just like black water pouring into the city wall above. The attack line of 200,000 troops was spread out. The Fezer flags of hundreds of combat teams fluttered and rolled like the sea,

The Paput defenders were divided into more than a dozen small circles, making meaningless resistance. Even a newbie on the battlefield like Prince Feize could see that the opportunity to seize the capital of Papute was right in front of him. This was incredible. It was inexplicable not to let him be excited, but despite the sudden change in the situation, he still tenaciously achieved the ultimate goal of the strategy and snatched a chance of life for the 200,000 Feize elites, with this solid royal capital in front of him as a support. Support, I only need to wait for the final negotiation between the two countries to take all the glory and merit and become the hero of the entire Feize Kingdom. Especially the fact that I saved 200,000 Feize elites, Wang Fang's appreciation must be direct Surprisingly, among these 200,000 elites, there are still many family elites who have high hopes from major families. This is the strongest foundation for him to ascend to the throne!

Feize's 200,000-strong army was fighting against the Paput King's capital. The entire war situation was completely out of control. The bank flag troops transferred by the empire to the Paput King's capital were no longer unreservedly exposed.

After the collapse of Paput's garrison, the Imperial Standard Corps guarding the second line of defense became the first line. Facing the enemy whose morale was shaken and densely packed like a tide, all the Imperial Standard Soldiers could do was to fight. , the flag-force spearmen wearing heavy armor, holding the cold-gleaming spears in both hands, stabbed down from the second city wall,

"Pap-pap-pap!" Countless sharp thorns composed of densely packed gun heads instantly formed a twisting strangulation line like a rolling dragon. Thousands of flag-force shooters who drew their bowstrings held strong black composite bows, and countless gleaming arrows were pointing at them. Facing the first line of defense below, the flash of coldness in the shooter's eyes was the look he was looking at a dead person.

"Swish, brush, brush"

At the same time, a dazzling cold light suddenly hit us from the direction of the Pillar Castle with a violent whistling sound. The sharp arrows brought out white lines like heavy rain, forming a waterfall-like spectacle in the sky. Yikanshu w?ww?·1?kanshu·cc At the front end of this waterfall, there is the completely pale face of the Feize people. The Feize people were all hit by arrows, and countless blood bloomed like flowers in their crowded queue.

"Shoot!" the captains of the flag shooters shouted almost simultaneously. Immediately, another cluster of arrows fell towards the covered area, hitting two consecutive layers of arrow clusters. Those who were cheering loudly just now felt as if they were hit head-on by an invisible big hand, and they were all knocked down. Next slice.

"It's the Imperial Hundred Crossbow Chariot!"

The face of Onibe, commander of Fezer's Fourth Army, who had suffered a loss because of this, changed slightly, and the scene in front of him was so similar. However, the reaction to the situation was completely different. After being hit, Feize's army only paused slightly, and then continued to rush towards the second defense wall. They fell one by one despite the brutality of countless sharp arrows shot into their bodies. . But no one retreated. Instead, they used their bodies to form a flesh and blood shield for the people behind them. There were a forest of spears and a crowd of people. The shields in their hands were shining brightly. The first city wall corridor below shone with cold light like layers of fish scales.

"Sir, the enemy has begun to contact the second line of defense!"

The report from the front made Rose Anvik, who was standing on the second line of defense, frown tightly. According to the plan, Feizejun should choose to retreat after receiving the news, but the situation in front of him showed that, The Feize people had gone completely crazy, and the entire army was shrouded in an aura of mourning, displaying staggering combat power. In the siege battle, where casualties were not considered at all, amidst the high-pitched shouts of killing from both sides, the light of the sword flew like a stream of light. In the exploding blood, countless heads rose and fell with the light of the sword, and blood flowed from the headless chest like pillars. Straight up to a height of more than one meter

What the hell is going on? What on earth was the Fezer commander thinking?

Ruosanwek's face was livid. Under the strong attack of 200,000 troops, even if King Papt had 40,000 banner troops that were not inferior to the emperor's fighting strength, they would eventually be crushed to pieces.

At this moment, countless lives are being lost. Siege warfare has always been the most brutal of all battles. It is a life-and-death fight at close range. The breath from the nose even reaches the opponent's face, and the shields hit each other heavily. The spears were in chaos, and countless spears and sharp blades rushed over. Any timidity was meaningless. Those who could be sent to the front line of the siege were the warriors with the toughest fighting ability and willpower. Logically speaking, there wouldn't be many such soldiers, but I don't know what kind of medicine Fei Ze's army took this time, so that the entire army erupted with such a ferocious and desperate aura.

I have also faced the emperor's crossbows and arrows, and I know what it is like. The arrows are like locusts. They are so overwhelming that they can cover the sky, the sun and the moon. The density is enough to make any tough nerve collapse. Even if they stand in a group, they are like paper. They are knocked over by the falling arrow clusters. The arrow clusters are in the air. The crowds of people were flying like locusts, like a whirlwind coming in, sweeping and destroying everything, like a dividing line between life and death. Before the people who had just surged up could stand still, they fell like a huge blade,

But the Fezer in front of him was shot down by countless arrows, and he was still moving forward! Does the other party want to fill in all 200,000 people without giving up? King Paput was afraid that he could no longer hold on, as the other party simply ignored the lives of his soldiers!

Ruosanwek took a deep breath and clenched his fingers fiercely, you are cruel enough!

The opponent knew that King Papute could not fill the 200,000 people, so the only possibility was to be conquered and fell. The opponent's commander did have considerable tenacity. This kind of attack that was not afraid of life and death would either collapse or be crushed. The enemy's nerves, and I don't know what method they used to arouse such a terrible determination to die in Feize's entire army. But now it seems that the possibility of his side being crushed is 100%. In a fierce battle, In the morning, no matter how sharp the imperial crossbowmen were, the piles of arrows under their feet had already been shot, and there were not many left. The first line of defense of the Paput army collapsed, leaving the opponent with the ability to attack the first line of defense. In the Pillar Fort, where the battle was fiercest, some of the crossbow attacks had become sparse. They relied entirely on the hundreds of crossbow arrow carts arranged on top to support the suppression. Either the arrow clusters were exhausted, or the crossbowmen were exhausted and unable to pull. crossbow string

"My lord, Marshal Langlis asked me to tell your lord that King Papt had already escaped when the war started!" The adjutant came up from behind with an ugly look on his face and whispered in the ear of Rose Anvik.

"This bastard!"

Even Ruosanwek's face changed color in vain. The situation was not only out of control, but also quite bad. Tens of thousands of people were still fighting bloody battles for the capital of King Paput. As the king of Papute, he actually He escaped. As the marshal of the kingdom, Langlis naturally knew about it beforehand. He didn't reveal any information, just hoping that he could hold off Feize's army and let King Papt go farther. However, considering that Lanlis had been sticking to the front line and was even seriously injured before being carried down, For this old man who was full of loyalty to his emperor, Roose Anvik couldn't hate him even if he wanted to.

The empire wants to use Papt to consume the strength of the Fezer people. Isn’t it true that Papt is also using the empire? What qualifications does he have to blame the Papt people?

"How is Marshal Langlis doing?" Rotheanwick asked.

"The marshal's heart and lungs on the right side have suffered a heavy blow that cannot be treated. I'm afraid... The marshal said that he was very grateful for our help, but Papt was still too weak after all. If he could leave, he should leave as soon as possible. "Okay!" The adjutant lowered his head as he spoke, his voice filled with blazing anger. "The Paput people are so unscrupulous. They only told us the news of the king's escape. They just left as long as they could. In this situation." , how to go?"

"Order the entire army to withdraw into the city. Only when it gets dark can we have a way to break out." Ruosianweike calmed down. Feize's army was completely unprepared for the violent attack on King Paput's capital, but he was not unprepared at all. He also considered what would happen if the city wall fell and the city was trapped. Feize's army spent such a huge price and even after taking down the city wall, they all rushed in. As long as Feize's troops spread out in the city, he would deploy with his elite. Even if you break through, the opponent may not be able to react. (To be continued.)
