Realm of Power

"To the east, the Imperial Cavalry is attacking!"

Various shouts of death coming from the side of the camp were like needles piercing into the faces of the people who were illuminated by the burning warship on the river bank. A centurion also ran over in a hurry at this moment. Kneeling on one knee behind Mongolia, the news he brought made everyone change their expressions. What is going on? The generals were completely stunned and looked at Mongolia in front of them.

The word "Empire" really puts too much pressure on them. The grassland people have fought with the Imperial Army not once or twice. That time, there were hundreds of people killed by the Imperial Army. Don't look at the hundreds of thousands of coalition forces heading south now, but back then The 100,000 troops of the northwest grassland people were not forced to surrender by half of the emperors!

"Are you kidding me?"

Mongolia turned around with a laugh on his face. The night breeze was blowing, and the firelight still reflected on his armor, like red blood. He had begun to have the aura of the hero of the grassland on his body. He felt that his subordinates The generals were frightened. He raised his hand and pointed to the other side of the river and said in a cold voice, "The three members of the Yelu family are here." Wanbai's army is on the other side, and the empire's troops only moved in 20,000 cavalry from the Imperial Capital West Road after the envoy incident. There is no doubt that the ones who attacked us were just these 20,000 imperial cavalry, here and there It’s called a force attack. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that the empire has given me as a prairie people!”

"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" The other generals were also stunned for a moment.

Mongolia's eyes were bright and frightening, and his voice was sharp and filled with grief and anger. "Since two years ago, the Langrui army killed Angnacuo in battle, the Yelu family and 300,000 people were driven southward to escape like lost dogs. They are the backbone of our prairie people. It was broken by the empire, the royal court was in civil strife, and the situation was even more unbearable. Facing the extremely powerful empire, even we, the descendants of Canglang, could only If we can bow our heads, we have been groveling under the imperial banner for two full years. Even the lowly imperial businessmen dared to be arrogant in front of our most courageous warriors, and swept away mountains of blood from their bloody hands. Ordinary wealth made the scarred warrior sign a debt that would never be repaid in his lifetime. "Why not?" It's because behind these businessmen stands the most powerful army in the world. Do we still have to bear this kind of humiliation?" Mongolia paused, his bloodshot eyes swept over everyone, and he said in a condensed voice, " Now, the opportunity for reversal is right in front of us. There are only 20,000 imperial troops, but our army's combat strength is five times that, and the opponent is actually arrogantly powerful. Attacking our army camp is really asking for death! Do you really think that the Imperial Army is invincible? Do you really think that the scimitars of our prairie people can't kill people? Today we wiped out 20,000 Imperial cavalry with the heads of Imperial people. Build up the capital and let the whole world see that we are still the descendants of Cang Lang!" Mongolia suddenly pulled out his saber and pointed it to the sky, shouting.

"Yes, we descendants of Canglang! We have wiped out all 20,000 emperors!"

The generals all looked excited and roared. Everyone's blood was boiling inspired by Mongolia's words. Who can become a general of the grassland department, who is not strong and strong in the cold wind and cold blood of the grassland, and who is born in the bones? With the gene of fighting flowing, no matter how strong the Imperial Army is, what can 20,000 people do? The commander of the empire doesn’t know how to use troops at all! How can there be such a way of playing? There are rumors that the person who attacked the imperial envoy was Lord Mongolia. It seems quite possible. Otherwise, the empire would not have adopted such an unwise attack! "Someone among the generals subconsciously said this. As long as we annihilate these 20,000 emperors and the news spreads, the rumors of the empire's invincible victory will be self-defeating, and all ministries will no longer hesitate to join our army. ! At that time, with the various ministries gathered together and controlling hundreds of thousands, even if we were to face the empire, what would we have to fear? "

"Pass my order, the Bedrock, Suharta, and Kuli tribes come from the right, the Gu tribe and the Feita tribe come from the left, centering on the fighting area, and press forward with all their strength. I don't believe that with five times the strength of our army, we can still return it." We can't annihilate these 20,000 emperors!" Mongolia said on his face. The solemn and decisive tone violently affected the nerves of every general, and the fighting spirit was soaring. The grievances he had suffered in the past two years were all detonated by this imperial attack. Kill, kill all these emperors, even if the emperor **So what if it has three heads and six arms? It's still possible to defeat 20,000 to 100,000. This is a battle for the prairie people's military morale! Even if two are exchanged for one, or even three are exchanged for one, it is a victory for the prairie people!

"Press up, we must not let the emperor escape!"

The excited voices of the generals could be heard in the messy camp,

"Woo woo" was the horn horn that represented the attack. Countless cavalry began to mount their horses, hung their scimitars on their waists, picked up a quiver and left. Mud and water flew everywhere on the ground trampled by the horses' hooves. In the chaotic situation, , groups of cavalry almost didn’t need to gather, they followed closely and rushed towards the side of the breached camp. Go, this kind of calmness in chaotic battles fully demonstrates the characteristics of the grassland people's quick response in battle. They spread their wings to both sides, and the two ends are like a long rope. As long as they are firmly tied to the imperial cavalry, Above their heads, these imperial cavalry will be trapped and killed by the superior prairie people, and no one will escape.

"kill!"

The black line struck by the imperial cavalry pressed up against the side of the camp like a landslide and tsunami, expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye. Almost at the moment of contact, the sharpest spear tip at the front of the thrust smashed a Fengtai. The patrols of the Ministry were overwhelmed, and the three hundred Imperial heavy cavalry were like rolling snow masses trampling over these patrol cavalry. The scimitars of the Fengtai Ministry of cavalry were completely ineffective in front of these Imperial heavy cavalry.

The scimitar struck the heavy armor and was bounced off, and the arrows shot on it were directly bounced away.

They saw the heavy cavalry advancing side by side with their spears, and the razors moving forward efficiently and neatly. They used the simplest and crudest fighting method to knock down all the living creatures in the way. From a distance, it looked like a black wave sweeping the outside of the camp. Dyeing black, the imperial heavy infantry in the firelight, with their black heavy armor covered in blood-red spots, looked like demons in the dark night, scaring the prairie people out of their wits.

"Attention, spread out!"

Before the shouts could stop, the prairie cavalry who was hit was hung up like grass flakes blown by the wind. The war horse was even knocked over. The cavalry fell heavily to the ground. When the horse's hoof stepped on it, there was a blast of bones. Sound, trampled to death, crushed, overthrown by stabbing spears, cold light from stabbing spears, thundering like snow,

The horses' hooves were stained red with the blood of the prairie people. Charge, charge, charge. This was the only thing the heavy cavalry had to do. When the cavalry on both sides squeezed into the middle, the heavy cavalry's steel waves completely crushed Leng. The cruelty and bloodshed of the age of weapons was brought to its extreme. Broken limbs were flying everywhere, all kinds of heavy weapons were flying, and various sounds were heard, tearing apart the dense array of people and horses, and fighting all the way into the depths. Rows of them were cut down! Countless horses' hooves trampled everywhere, and any person or horse in the way was ruthlessly pushed down.

On the front of this razor arc, the prairie generals have become red-eyed.

"Hold them at any cost!"

The grassland generals gnashed their teeth and tore their throats. Although they suffered heavy losses, the inspired generals were desperate to hold back the emperor.

"Rush forward, for the prairie"

Countless prairie cavalry opened their eyes angrily, facing the blood rushing towards their faces, and launched a fearless counterattack towards the mountain-like imperial heavy cavalry in front, just like a swarm of bees chasing a thick-skinned mountain bear. One or three teams of troops started to fight with the imperial cavalry. The sound of the war horses clashing together turned into a dark red color that swept the world.

"Kill"

"Don't retreat"

Despite being pushed back continuously by the well-equipped imperial cavalry, the prairie cavalry still held on without collapsing.

The soil splashed by the horses' hooves on both sides has been infected by the almost solidified human blood, as if it had rained. In front of the spear tips of countless imperial cavalry, it is like a bloody wave has rolled up, and the surging prairie cavalry is almost a pile of people. People rushed up, and the pierced body exploded with a stream of blood, which was blown by the night wind and scattered on the faces of the people behind,

"Sir, enemies are coming from the left and right!"

An imperial cavalry officer, covered in blood, came to Mu Lihe, the deputy commander of the Imperial Wilderness Corps who was leading the attack. Under the firelight, he looked like a bloody man. In just one hour of assault, the grassland was defeated. Three lines of defense, countless counterattacks, conservatively estimated to have defeated 10,000 people, Killing three or four thousand prairie cavalry, even the emperor would feel the pressure with such intensity of the assault. If the assault at this moment were fifty thousand cavalry, then under such a strong force, the prairie people would have collapsed, but only a mere Twenty thousand people, facing a camp of 100,000 people, the shortcomings in military strength are undoubtedly exposed

"Signal!"

A ferocious look flashed in Mulihe's eyes, he hesitated and said to the officer

Although they were caught off guard, the enemy in front of them was indeed worthy of being the elite of the northern prairie. If they were Central Asians, they might have already collapsed. But here, these prairie people behaved like the wind. With the tenacity of a medium-sized grass, it has collapsed several times and still has no tendency to waver.

The cavalry in front were scattered by the heavy cavalry, and were chopped to death by the imperial cavalry from behind. However, amid the rolling flames in the camp, there were still countless prairie cavalry pressing in from both fronts.

The sounds of fighting and fighting between the cavalry on both sides came one after another, especially for the heavy cavalry, which was under special care. Under the obstruction of the prairie people, the violent waves started to slow down. Once the heavy cavalry was entangled, they would immediately be attacked. More prairie cavalry will surround them. Some heavy cavalry have lost their horses and begin to use their melee weapons to kill the approaching prairie people.

"The emperor's power is the best in the world, but it's nothing more than this!"

Mongolia looked at the battlefield sharply, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. The two lines had been completely pulled apart. At this time, even if the emperor forced a retreat, he would still have to pay a considerable price.

The length of the camp of one hundred thousand grassland troops along the line of the Han River is three to four miles. Any commander with a little common sense in such a deep camp will understand that even a strong cavalry attack will not be successful without enough cavalry. The investment of troops will become weak after about a mile in depth. And when the attacked party is also a sturdy field cavalry, attacking with a weak force is courting death. You only need to hold off for a while and use all your strength. , we will definitely be able to counterattack.

In this battle, the emperor's mistake was that he chose the wrong opponent. If it were the Zhongbia people, they might have collapsed long ago, but the grassland people don't know how to surround the enemy in a wide area. This is what the grassland people have always known. There are things that everyone must learn to become a warrior. As a prairie man, you will be a warrior from the moment you learn to mount a war horse. , on the endless prairie, it is common for enemies to attack the camp. Even the women in the camp will not be too panicked. When encountering a strong attack, the prairie people will immediately respond intuitively. Gathered together, the prairie people responded quickly to the attack.

What's more, the superiors have already issued orders to prepare for an attack before dawn, and many soldiers are almost in a state of combat readiness.

The soldiers were not disarming and the horses were well fed. If not, how could they react so quickly?

This is the reason why Mongolian Luo said that the empire's mere 20,000 people dared to attack the camp of a hundred thousand troops because he was seeking death. The other generals were all warriors killed in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. How could they not know this truth? The emperor** If you jump into the pit, you can't blame anyone. Mongolia is the leader of all generals. The army believed that tonight, the grassland people defeated the Imperial Army for the first time, trampling the legend of the Imperial Army's invincibility under the blood-stained horse hooves, and the heads of 20,000 Imperial soldiers would tell the whole world, He, Mongolia, is a genuine descendant of gold and the leader of all grassland people! After tonight, more prairie warriors will gather under their own flags than now.

At this moment, a red light suddenly rose into the sky from the Imperial Cavalry group,

"This is this?" Mengluo's pupils were fixedly looking at the light rising into the sky, his eyebrows were tightly twisted into the character "Sichuan\

,"Suddenly there was a dense "rumbling" explosion, and the fire was steaming. The area near the river bank on the left was shrouded like a scattered ball of light. In the dark night, the white light instantly stung everyone's eyes, and a series of exploding fireballs erupted from the river. It whizzed in and hit the ground. Immediately, a deadly red halo spread out, lifting up the prairie cavalry in pieces. At the moment when the fire ball shattered, a terrifying bright red was like thunder exploding, and the pieces of flesh were broken. The remaining limbs are scattered like rain

“On the river, the enemy is coming up!

Crazy shouts came from the direction of the river bank. On the black river, huge ship hulls, like giant beasts in the night, began to emerge from the towering decks like city walls. Dense black shadows could clearly be seen on them. Knowing how many soldiers were loaded, the hull of the ship was pushed by the current, tearing away the flood water on the river. The bow of the ship was slowly approaching the river bank, making waves of rushing water.

The red light balls were shot from the hulls of these boats on the river. Although the number was not large, the power was amazing. The place where each fire ball fell seemed to be hollowed out, and war horses and cavalry were constantly being hit. Lifting up, in addition to these approaching hulls, there were obviously several giant ships. The boats were parked side by side on the river, and some soldiers were driving iron chains into the docking position on the ship's deck. Obviously, as long as these giant ships rushed up, these iron chains would become the supports of a pontoon bridge with a huge hull. As a support, even the cavalry can easily cross the river and pour down from the side.

"Stop them! We must not let them build the pontoon!"

This scene made Mongolia's face suddenly turn pale, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, asking the shooter who was on the river bank to stop him with all his strength.

He didn't expect such a change. There were 30,000 of the most elite Baihe troops of the Yelu family on the other side of the river. Once the opponent's pontoon bridge was built, the cavalry attacked the side and pressed against the main force of the imperial army with all their strength. I'm afraid it would be really... About to collapse,

"Shoot, don't let them get close!"

The Fengtai tribe archers were ordered to rush to the shore, facing the giant ship in the distance, and neatly raised the grassland bows in their hands. The front ends of the arrow clusters had already been lit, and they were waiting for the other side to enter a sufficient ignition range.

At this moment, there was a violent sound of "pah, pah, pah". A Fengtai shooter watched in disbelief as he was knocked away by a huge force. He saw that half of his body was still in place, and The scene in front of me is flying, even the flesh and blood body protected by iron armor and shield, It was also like the sound of a series of blown balloons. Blood and minced meat were flying everywhere. Blood flowers rose in the air. The corpse fell heavily into the dust, and the body showed huge torn wounds. A thick steel The arrow-making arrow was still stabbing into the stone on the ground with blood flowing out of it.

"Imperial heavy crossbow, there is an imperial heavy crossbow on board!"

The shrill screams reached the ears of the Fengtai shooters. Everyone's face turned pale, and the hands holding the bows were trembling.

Now even a fool knows that the fireball that came out just now is the famous Imperial Thunder God, and the Imperial Heavy Ballistae is even more notorious. If it is killed by the Imperial Thunder God, at most, the hands and feet will be broken, but if it is killed by the Imperial Heavy Ballistae, If you bite one, half of your body will be gone, and the wailing sounds from some people who are still alive are even more frightening.

"collapse"

The steel crossbow arrows from the Empire on the river were still like lightning, hitting the crowd of Fengtai tribe fiercely, setting off a bloody storm, penetrating from their backs, hitting the rock fragments on the shore and flying. The heavy crossbow carts of the Empire, which were powered by powerful springs, were strong enough to penetrate shields within 300 meters. Moreover, the entire river was only 100 meters wide. Especially the wreckage of the burning hull in front, it was like a huge torch, illuminating the situation on this side of the river bank. Every move on this side was clearly seen by the archers on the hull. The transport ship specially sent to test the opponent's firepower range and serve as a torch. 8
