Realm of Power

At the Hengshan Pass, Lu Yang, who came from the Lu family's headquarters, was also shocked by the situation in front of him. Although he had come into contact with the Aden people in Liucheng Port, in his impression, most of the Aden people had a smile on their faces. The image of a businessman, after knowing that the Aden army had indeed landed in the direction of Liucheng Port Afterwards, Lu Yang did not think that these Aden people would attack Luzhou immediately, but the densely packed Aden troops in front of him made Lu Yang's face look ugly. Not only did the Aden people come, but they also marched in on their own. , directly hitting the three horizontal passes of the Luzhou portal

"As long as they can give the Aden people a head-on blow, the Aden people will turn to Longchang in the north. After all, compared to our regular army Luzhou Army, the thousands of guards recruited by Lu Yangyu in Longchang are obviously in a position that is easier to defeat. As long as the people of Aden are not fools, they will choose which one they choose."

At the family meeting, Lu Yang used this method to persuade the Lu family to do basic mobilization. However, because everyone in the Lu family regarded the news of the Aden people's landing at Liucheng Port as a joke, the mobilization effect it could have was very limited. It is limited. Even at the gateway to Luzhou like Sanheng Pass, the Lu family's headquarters only increased its strength by two thousand, from the original three thousand to five thousand.

Five thousand people, facing at least 30,000 Aden troops in front of them, was obviously too small. Although Sanhenguan was built on a slope, as a fortress of local forces, the height of the city wall restricted by the court made it even more difficult. The fortress of Sanhenguan is like an isolated island crumbling under the huge waves attacked by the Aden Army.

The first row of Aden siege heavy infantry has begun to climb the city wall. The armor style of this row of heavy infantry is obviously different from that of the Aden heavy infantry behind them. The heavy armor only covers the chest and the waist below. It's light mail, the top of these soldiers' helmets It is a long red feather with a cross-shaped notch for the eye protection. On the left hand is a small buckler of Aden, and in the right hand is an Aden machete more than one meter long. The blade is thick and the edge is made of hundreds of stacks. The circles of lines that appear appear to have a bright luster.

"Rush up" The moment they boarded the Sanhengguan city wall, these strange-style assault heavy infantry were like chicken blood. No matter how many long spears the Luzhou Army put up in front of them, they raised the small round in their hands. Shield, wielding a machete and rushed into the crowd of Luzhou soldiers.

"Hold them off!"

The Luzhou Army officer shouted fiercely from behind, but in front of him, the Luzhou Army was beaten back by these Aden assault heavy infantry wielding machetes and bucklers. Human blood mixed with rain formed dark stripes on the ground. Red stream, iron boots stepping on the dark red blood. If the sword is broken, pick it up casually. Wave after wave of enemies fight together, slashing with all their strength until they fall, and the enemy steps over their bodies. keep moving forward

The situation is not good for Luzhou

The overcrowded queue turned the spear formation's stabbing into violent slashing with their own melee weapons. The machete of the Aden assault infantry was more able to exert its advantage at such a distance. The machete slashed with great force, and Luzhou's The rattan shields used by the military can often be Seeing the cold light of the machete hitting the shield, the shield was suddenly broken into pieces. Then, before even a bite could be heard, the Luzhou Army soldier behind the shield had half his head chopped off, leaving a headless corpse. Braving a pillar of blood, he fell on the blood-stained city wall,

"It's Yun Lungang! All the enemies are Yun Lungang!"

During the chaotic battle, someone from the Luzhou Army suddenly made a sound of panic, and the Luzhou Army during the battle even fluctuated. Yunlun Steel is a specialty of Aden. In the past, only a small amount of Yunlun Steel was transported from Aden to China. It is sold in Biya, and its price is ridiculously expensive, but the sword made of Yunlun steel can be sharp. It is said that cutting iron is like mud, and the blade is not stained with blood. Therefore, being able to obtain a weapon made of Yunlun Steel is also the dream of the Central and African military generals. However, due to the forging of Yunlun Steel in Aden, The method control is extremely strict, and even the Aden businessmen have extremely tight control over Yunlun Steel.

Therefore, Zhongbia always thought that the forging of Yunlun Steel was extremely rare. But at this moment, Lu Yang felt a sense of being fooled. The first batch of assault heavy infantry from the Aden people rushed up, and all the weapons in their hands were expensive. In a hurry, Luzhou Army overturned a large piece of Yunlun Steel, and it only took a short time for the Luzhou Army to make contact with it. By half an hour, more than a thousand of the five thousand defenders were already lying on the city wall, and the number of the Aden Army was constantly expanding. The opponent's thunderous slashes, relying on the sharpness of the cloud steel, were on the defenders. He cut gaps in the army and looked at the Luzhou Army soldiers who fell one by one. Lu Yang's eyes were filled with blood.

In the absence of the main force of the family, those who can be sent to such a position as Sanheng Pass must be the elite of the Lu family. These elite soldiers of Luzhou are often the best among the young men of Luzhou, because they are mainly responsible for fighting against the enemy. Fighting in the southern mountains, most of the Luzhou Army is not strong, but they are agile and have strong endurance. They need to exercise their physical strength and endurance. Also train in swordsmanship. Spear skills, shields, etc., any weapon that can be used in close combat in the mountains, a year of continuous training, only then can you be considered successful. It takes a year to make a qualified Luzhou soldier. So, killing a Luzhou soldier in such a A hand-to-hand encounter only takes five seconds!

If the weapons of the Aden Army were all Yunlun Steel, then there would be no need to fight this battle! , Lu Yang looked at the sharp blades without even a trace of blood in the hands of those Aden assault heavy infantry, even though they had killed many people, and his body could not help but shudder, and his mouth was almost bitter, wanting to The difficulty of forcing the Aden people to the north was far beyond my expectation. I originally thought that if the opponent was blocked at Sanhengguan, they would turn to the north.

But I didn't expect that this was the situation in front of me. The weapons of the Aden people were all made of Yunlun steel, which was as sharp as mud, and the number of heavily armored troops was astonishing. This is absolutely invisible in Central Asia, because they are always in contact with the north. Nomads fought. A long time ago, the scale of heavy armored troops was already large in Central Asia. In front of the northern nomads with long bows and fast horses, the heavy armored troops are living targets. Therefore, as time goes by, the proportion of heavy armored troops in the Central and African armies becomes smaller and smaller. This also leads to The reason why the weapon forging technology in the Central Asian region has gradually been left behind by the Western Continent where heavy armor is the mainstream

"Sir, our army has already attacked the city. In less than two hours, the Central Asian fortress in front of us will fall into our hands."

An Aden general reported to Cateus with an excited expression. The wind blew against Cateus' face. He looked at the extremely tragic battlefield in front of him with piercing eyes. His brows were knitted together, and the three horizontal passes were crossed. From one bulge to another, the swords colliding with each other looked cold in the sun.

The two armies intertwined like two huge dragons tumbling. The expected strong combat power of the Central and Belgian army did not appear. On the contrary, the evaluation of the Central and Belgian army in front of them was at best the level of the local army. Is the gap in combat power so big? The Central-Bian army in Longchang was able to destroy tens of thousands of Aden troops in one night without leaving a trace. Their combat power was so terrifying that the entire Aden army was shaken.

That's why the Aden Army decided to move south across the board, and decided to launch a desperate attack with all its strength. It was like the last hope of a dying man. It was surprisingly powerful, and also fierce and decisive. The whole army was filled with an indomitable spirit. The grief and anger, but the expected hard battle did not appear. Instead, the pass that was originally thought to be difficult to overcome was cut open in one fell swoop.

"The situation is going very smoothly, isn't it a trap?'

An idea flashed through Cateus' mind, and the corners of his mouth tightened together. Could it be that he had made a mistake in judgment? The combat power of the Central Asian Army was not as strong as expected. If this were the case, I would have been sent there like the most powerful atoneer at the beginning. Wasn't he overqualified? The atonement was the one who killed the Luzhou Army. Everyone in the Luzhou Army was frightened. The names of those two thousand Aden heavy armored assault troops

In fact, they are not ordinary soldiers, but a group of people who take life and death lightly. Their families were broken up, or their relatives died, and they were scattered in all directions, wandering in the ravines. Those who work as mercenaries under the aristocrats will die in the fights between the nobles at any time, and they will also die in the harsh treatment of their own nobles at any time, because as long as they are given money, they will do anything, and they will be called sinners. , after these people joined the army, they were turned into the legion of redeemers in front of them. Their only role was to kill people for money! Even within the Aden Army, there is a lot of contempt for these redeemers with questionable conduct.

Pulling out the Aden machete in his hand from the corpse of a Luzhou Army, Lubiyesu wiped the blood from his face, leaned against the battlements and gasped for air. Even an elite redeemer is still a human being. After continuously swinging the Aden machete, which weighed more than 20 kilograms, hundreds of times, even Lubiyesu began to feel soreness in his arms.

At his feet, there were still the corpses of several redeemers, and around them were a circle of Zhongbia corpses. Lubiye Su soldiers did not take a second look, but stepped directly over their corpses, followed by several The Aden soldiers looked at his back with disdain. One of them, Aden, who was carrying a bow, took off his crossbow, raised it diagonally forward, and a rocket flew into the air.

"The east side of the city wall has been taken!"

There was a burst of cheers from the Aden Army. As long as they could win, it didn't matter whether it was the Redeemer Legion or other troops. After seeing the signal rising in the east, the Luzhou Army had to shrink its troops. Originally, The dense clusters of arrows pointing downwards have become a chaotic rain of arrows. This is a sign of the wavering heart of the Central Asian soldiers. Occasionally, one of them hits the armor leaves worn by the Aden heavy infantry, and it just makes a clanking sound and falls down. On the contrary, the accuracy of the Aden Army's shooters was quite high. In order to suppress the city wall, Caterous specially selected more than a hundred sharpshooters from the army. When attacking the city, he paid special attention to the Central Asian soldiers who poked their heads out of the city wall.

This is why Cateus overestimated the combat power of the Central Asian army and actually treated it as a strong enemy. More than a hundred Aden sharpshooters were behind the attack team. They were often in groups of three, shooting at one target. These The Luzhou infantry, mostly in light armor, saw a few rays of cold light coming and fell down from the top of the city. After several times, the Luzhou army on the wall no longer dared to check at will.

"Command to the front, take down the city gate!" Cateus snorted with a stern expression. After taking down the east wall, he realized that the structure of the Zhongbia fortress in front of him was very clever. The three sections of the city wall were stacked diagonally. , that is to say, it is of little use to capture one section of the city wall. The next two sections of the city wall can still protect the fortress.

The combat power is only this. Cateus raised his hand. The battle damage was not great. Except for the Redemptor who died in more than 300 people, the other losses were only one or two hundred people. The loss of the east wall was a big blow to the entire Aden people. For the army, they undoubtedly saw the hope of victory, "Don't waste time, attack the city gate directly."

"Send the order, attack the city gate." The cavalry came galloping with the order.

The huge battering ram began to be pushed forward neatly by the infantry. The array of 10,000 Aden troops marched out from the direction of the formation, like a dark red tide that quickly flooded the flat ground in front of the Sanheng Pass.

"Attention, the Aden people are attacking the city gate" shouted the Luzhou army on the top of the city. The loss of the east wall had made the situation very unfavorable. Facing the Aden army coming in large numbers again, Lu Yang could not sit still because The wall sections of Sanheng Pass are separated, so even if the east wall is lost, Sanheng Pass can still hold on for a while. However, if the city gate is breached, the Aden army on the opposite side will inevitably rush in without any resistance, even if it is The cleverly constructed three-level checkpoint allows you to break through the level immediately.

"The order goes down. No matter what, the city gate must be guarded." Lu Yang put the helmet on his head and took the guard next to him with a serious look and handed him the weapon. The fighting power of the Aden people made him feel terrible. When he thought of these wolves and tigers, the aliens Sweat was on his forehead at the sight of people pouring into Luzhou. When will the main force of the family come back? If the main force of the family is still there, the situation will definitely not be like this. If the Lu family's headquarters can trust themselves more a little, Sending more troops to Sanheng Pass will definitely not be like this. The 5,000 Luzhou Army has already lost more than half of its battle damage. Sanheng Pass has lost a third. The remnants of the army that were just withdrawn from the east wall , it even moved the Luzhou Army on the other two walls, and was almost completely disabled. Especially when these soldiers confirmed that the weapons used by the other side were all Yunlun Steel, which was as sharp as iron as mud, even he himself was shocked. I don’t know how to encourage the soldiers to persevere.

Because the soldiers who are still persisting are entirely supported by the loyalty of the Lu family to the family, just like a man who is exhausted and brandishing weapons in a completely numb state.

"Gruck" The attacking ram is slowly approaching, and the crushing sound of the wooden runner is more like oppression on everyone's nerves.

"Is this the end of Sanhengguan? Is Luzhou destroyed like this?" Lu Yang's face turned blue.
