Main text 2538 Roar (XVIII)

Please enter the text Kurudia led the infantry group to the Blue Valley battlefield. The sight he saw made him unable to recover for a long time. In front of him, as the sharp sword of this battle, the Fezer royal family was about to become famous all over the world. The heavy cavalry troops actually collapsed like headless flies, running all over the mountains and plains. Following these heavy cavalry troops like hungry wolves were groups of light cavalrymen from the noble army wearing only light mail armor.

These noble light cavalrymen held sharp javelins, flails and iron rods specially designed for breaking armor. They followed the disintegrating royal heavy cavalry, just like bees stinging thick-skinned bears. Heavy cavalry that moves slowly and loses its formation, even if it has an excellent whole body A, was also penetrated by the javelin in the hands of the light cavalry of the noble army within a few meters. He was covered in blood and fell down one by one. When the light cavalry of the noble army discovered that the main force of the royal infantry appeared in front, they reined in their horses and stopped in pursuit. When turning around, the royal army camp also made various provocative sounds.

"Immediately send troops to rescue and bring an officer. I want to ask who gave the order to attack!"

Kurudia's face was livid, and the fingers holding the riding crop clacked. He just asked the cavalry to press forward to delay the arrival of the main force. He did not let the cavalry directly attack the noble army. If the light cavalry of the noble army were fighting in the field He defeated the heavy cavalry. Kurudia would never believe it. Heavy cavalry are not hothouse flowers like the Royal Guards. Many of them are warriors specially trained by the royal family from childhood. Through some secret channels, they have participated in several more brutal battles. However, only ordinary people appeared on the battlefield at that time. cavalry, rather than fully armored heavy cavalry,

This is the blade that His Majesty the King relies on most, and it is meant to be used at the most critical moment. ♦♦, the weight used to completely reverse the disadvantage in fighting the military

In the battle that defeated Feletri, these royal heavy cavalry lived up to expectations. At the fiercest moment of the battle, they suddenly came out and directly collapsed the defense line of the elite Fezer First Army, which eventually led to the First Army's defeat. Overwhelmed. The most important and magnificent blow of the entire battle was completed, but now, these heavy cavalry, which had been piled up with countless money, were surrounded and hunted here, and suffered heavy losses.

Soon, a heavy cavalry squadron leader was brought over. This officer could no longer support his heavy armor, and his whole body was half-kneeling on the ground. There was blood seeping out from the metal rings of the armor. I don't know if it was his or the enemy's. During the escape, the red cloak behind him was torn off. There was also a large amount of blood on his face, and there was a very obvious look in his eyes. Ashamed,

"Rooftop. What's going on? Where's Retel!"

Krudia called the heavy cavalry squadron leader's name sternly and asked where the heavy cavalry commander was. The cavalry, known as the most powerful cavalry in the royal army, suddenly collapsed like this. No matter how good-tempered Krudia is, he can't care about the feelings of his colleagues now! Originally, the whole army believed that this battle should be easy, and their morale was high. They all thought that even the 100,000 military elites of Ferretri had been annihilated, and this mere tens of thousands of noble troops were nothing. However, the situation in front of him was as devastating to the morale of the entire royal army as if a few large ice cubes were smashed into boiling hot water. That was a heavy cavalry, and it was beaten like a dog to death by the noble cavalry. In this case, who dares to do it!

Kurudia had long heard that in order to train this royal army to dare to attack the military elite at critical moments, Gan Kefu, with the tacit approval of His Majesty the King, continuously instilled in this army that heavy cavalry is the best in the world and is the leader of all enemies. Nemesis is the thought that dominates the entire battlefield, and it also uses the world-famous Falcon Empire heavy cavalry as a reference, so these heavy cavalry are always on the battlefield. All of them are like engorged cocks, extremely aggressive and arrogant. According to the heavy cavalry, this is the dignity that belongs to the master of the battlefield. This time they were assigned to act with the Praetorian Guards. It was clear on his face and in his heart that he despised the Guards, which was known as a useless army, so Kurudia simply sent them out as a frontline force to avoid causing trouble in his own camp.

Kurudia forgot that these guys were so used to being wild under Gankefu, how could they completely obey his command? Moreover, these heavy cavalry had just shined in the battle of defeating Feletli, and they were so energetic that they When you think you are invincible, if you ask him to just press on you instead of giving him an order to attack, he will definitely be direct. He was ignored. After all, Kurudia was an experienced commander. He quickly figured this out. His face was as cold as ice, and he waved the riding crop in his hand. He secretly felt a little guilty for his order to let the cavalry attack first. He regretted it and said sternly, "Did Retel order the attack? Where is this bastard now!"

"Sir, the noble army is too cunning. They deliberately led us into the Blue Valley, ambushed us with bows and arrows, and sent light cavalry to chase us. At the critical moment, Lord Retair was alone in the rear. He should be still behind at this time. I beg you to respond immediately. , rescue Lord Leitel first and then talk about it! The arrogance on the face of the heavy cavalry captain named Roota has long since flown to nowhere. At this moment, he has no face to speak of. Just be afraid. Krudia is the commander-in-chief of the Guards, and the heavy cavalry Belonging to the legion directly under the Duke of Gankefu, Krudia's important cavalry was annihilated! When he thought of this, the captain of the roof heavy cavalry squadron knelt down heavily and leaned his head on the ground, speaking with a cry in his voice.

Rethel is Gan Kefu's favorite general. He has just received special recognition and praise from His Majesty the King for his outstanding battle against Feletri. There is news that Rethel will soon be transferred to the Praetorian Guard and serve as the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard. The Duke of Gankefu, who established the royal power in World War I, has been regarded as the perfect candidate for Minister of Military Affairs after the royal family takes over the royal power because of his qualifications and contributions.

When he thought of this, Kurudia felt uncomfortable in his heart. Retair joined the Imperial Guard with such military exploits, which was obviously a bad sign. However, as an important figure in reversing the battle of the royal capital, he was in this battle of royal power. During the war, he did not get the respect he deserved as expected. Although he had contributed to cutting off the military's retreat, Also because the attack on the Second Army was frustrated and blocked, making it difficult to achieve a full-scale pincer attack, the combat power of the Guards once again became the focus of discussion. Then, they blocked the escape of the military troops and finally saved some face. , but the reputation that the Imperial Guard had just improved fell to its original position again, or even lower. After all, it was just speculation in the past, but now I can actually see it.

So much so that even His Majesty the King directly surrendered the nearly 100,000 elites of the former military forces, the Fifth Army, the Eighth Army, and the Twelfth Army. All were incorporated into the directly affiliated legions, and not a single soldier was given to the Guards. At the same time, Duke Gankefu was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the southward expedition, replacing Krudia's original identity. It can be seen from this that the royal army that His Majesty the King considers in his heart is still the military faction directly under the royal family led by Gan Kefu. Even the major raids against the vassal armies in the south were carried out by Gan Kefu's direct army.

After all, that is the main field force that the royal family has trained over the years. The staffing and weapons equipment are all those of a field army. Coupled with the royal family's years of painstaking training, their combat power is no worse than that of the military. As for the Royal Guards, in this battle for royal power, they are more like fireworks used to deceive others. , after the splendor. The kind that was quickly forgotten, and now the entire king's capital. What he talks about is the legions directly under the royal family.

Praetorian Guards, what is that? Is that considered a field force?

The entire royal capital can see that the Imperial Guards have been kept in the royal capital for hundreds of years, and their combat effectiveness has long since deteriorated. Not only are they inherently deficient, they still have numerous shortcomings. War is not just about putting on armor, but just putting on weapons. A group of showmen wearing gorgeous armor, one hundred thousand people. Just encountering a second army with less than 50,000 incomplete men, they were beaten to a pulp and could not make any progress.

In the previous battles, we could only watch from afar.

Now it is used to suppress the 50,000 to 60,000 noble troops, and it actually requires the dispatch of all 100,000 imperial guards. What else can we expect from this kind of army? It would be a joke if it really became a military force that the royal family relied on! Gan Kefu sent the heavy cavalry to assist in the battle because he was not confident about the combat power of the Guards. However, he did not expect that the heavy cavalry would advance so rashly and be ambushed by the noble army! "

Pass my order, the 3rd and 6th regiments will move forward at the front, the 5th and 7th regiments will be responsible for the flanks, and the rest will follow the formation forward."

Ten seconds later, Kurudia stood on his horse, raised his right hand high, and gave orders loudly. Although he did not like these heavy cavalry, they were all from the royal army, and these heavy cavalry were from His Majesty the King and Gan Kefu. Even if I complain about His Majesty's arrangements, I can't just sit idly by! But how to save it is another matter.

Thirty minutes later, Krudia received news from the scouts in front that Retel's body was found in front.

A row of figures stood silently, and some people's bodies were trembling slightly in the cold winter wind. Not only because of the cold, but also because of the uneasiness in their hearts,

It's so miserable, many people are looking at it from the corners of their eyes.

On the vast pale plain ahead, countless broken guns and arrows and the corpses of the royal heavy cavalry were covered with wounds, like a red blood line, dragging from the distant Langu Pass to thousands of meters away. ,

"He died so cleanly"

Kurudia raised his head and looked at the sky, with a vague twitch at the corner of his mouth. The cavalry of Fezer's noble army chased them several miles outside the Blue Valley, killing them all the way. He was just an infantry group, and it was so far from here to Blue Valley. The army Rushing forward, even if you want to go faster, you can imagine that the chance of Retel's lone rear guard surviving is even slimmer.

But isn’t that what war is? It is impossible not to die, and I cannot let a hundred thousand soldiers of the king rush to death just to save people. This kind of truth can be explained to both His Majesty the King and Gan Kefu.

"Contain Lord Retel's body and order the army to move forward." Krudia spat out a word from his thin lips, looked away, and ordered the army to move forward.

The Royal Army's infantry cluster appeared several miles away, and the Noble Army quickly received a message from the Noble Light Cavalry who ran back. Soon, the Noble Army saw dense shadows appearing in front of them, and all the Noble Army soldiers outside the Blue Valley suddenly disappeared. After suppressing his voice, so many people suddenly piled up in front of Blue Valley. Seen from above, the black army seemed to be one after another. Under the heavy clouds, all the legions were lined up in skirmish lines. As far as the eye could see, people seemed to be everywhere in the field of vision. There were also countless flags rolling in the wind, and the long spear tips moved forward in unison. It was as if a forest of spears suddenly appeared on the ground. The terrifying light of metal flashing from the spear tips reflected in the eyes of every noble soldier, bringing out a piece of horror.

"Is that really the Royal Guards in front?"

Grand Duke Geng Di was riding on his horse with a serious face, a little surprised. In his impression, weren't the Royal Guards just a useless army? I didn't expect him to be in such a posture. He was wearing heavy armor and a golden helmet like a cockscomb on his head. The long cloak behind him was draped from the shoulders to the horse. The military flag behind him had the pattern of a flying snake with heads and wings. Zhang, that is the flying snake of the Geng Di family, the head of the seven northern dukes. Behind him, two square formations of cavalry are formed. Preface, each phalanx has about three hundred men, and the light cavalry troops that have just returned from pursuit. These two phalanxes, 600 cavalry, are indeed genuine plate armor, holding in their hands a cavalry flying bird that can protect most of the body. With a metal shield and an unusually heavy and long-pointed spear in their hand, these are the flying snake heavy cavalry of the Geng Di family, known as the number one in the Hokuriku.

The Geng Di family was originally the number one prince in the Hokuriku. They were second to none in terms of financial and material resources. Because they were close to the coast of the Hokuriku, the Geng Di family even had 600 flying snake heavy cavalry and 2,700 light cavalry. There are four thousand heavy-step swordsmen fully equipped with armor. Although they are a private army, they are no worse than the regular army. On the contrary, they are horribly sophisticated.

"There's nothing surprising about this. After all, Krudia is also a rare famous general. Even a bunch of trash can show off after passing through his hands." A nobleman next to Grand Duke Geng Di said with a bit of laughter. Said in a teasing tone, the six princes, who are similar to the Geng Di family, all have their own extraordinary backgrounds. At this moment, the reflections of metals unfolded, and the densely packed swords shone with dazzling light under the military flags fluttering in the wind.

"Yes, whether we can fight or not doesn't depend on the surface. Just like those royal heavy cavalry, we didn't kill them all." The Hokuriku lord Lantrockle, who was wearing a scorpion heraldry armor, said with a contemptuous smile. "I don't believe that these imperial guards who have been raised in the royal capital for hundreds of years really went south and turned into an elite force? But I heard that just a second army made it difficult for them to move. It’s been four full days” (To be continued.)
