War is everywhere, the world is in turmoil

The aftermath of the war in the south of Obarro, which was called "Libra" by later historians, has finally come to the end, and it is also the most intense and harsh end! In the eyes of historians, although the battle of Rutia Subcastle led to the death of Emperor Ero and the defeat of 200,000 troops, it is still a long way from the collapse of the Ero Empire."

"After the tragic defeat of Rutia Subcastle, the Ero Empire still has more than 100,000 elite troops in the eastern border of Ero who were not involved in the battle, the Ero capital that the Ero people have devoted countless efforts and manpower to defend, and hundreds of thousands of Ero people in the Ero capital as logistical support and supplementary troops. Looking at the Church Army and the Imperial Coalition, the total number added up to only ten Ten thousand troops, and this is the result of the Legion Army taking into account all the wounded soldiers in the camp. With such a comparative strength, no matter from which aspect, the Ero Empire still has the advantage. As long as the war is dragged into the cold winter, even if the lost territory cannot be recovered, it is not a problem to drag the war to the spring of the next year.

But the magic of change lies in this.

No one expected that the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Rutia Subcastle, especially the humiliation of the emperor's death in the battle, led to the commander of the Eastern Frontier Army of Ero, Kabulin, who was angry and humiliated, and issued an order not to return the whole army to defend the capital, but to revenge the army in full force. In this way, the last guarantee that could have allowed the Ero Empire to smoothly pass through this crisis was lost.

The 100,000 Eastern Frontier Army of Ero, who were already exhausted from the long journey, marched 30 miles without even a moment's rest and defeated the Legion Army's obstruction. They turned to the Imperial Port of Ero, which had already built a strong defense line and mobilized the entire Imperial Navy as an attack force. It was because of this order that the last heavy army cluster of the Ero Empire was finally devastated in Port of Ero. "

" In just two days Within a day, the 300,000-strong army of the Eero Empire, which dominated the south, was completely wiped out. The outstanding commanders that the Eero military had cultivated over the years suffered collective losses, and the death rate of middle-level officers above the rank of squadron leader was as high as three-quarters. Even the Eero Empire, with its profound cultural heritage, could not afford such heavy losses. Faced with the aggressive religious order and the imperial coalition, the Eero royal family, which could not even gather 5,000 guards, had no choice but to choose to move south in despair, and handed over the Eero capital, the gate to Upper and Lower Eero. Since then, the Eero royal family has never returned to Upper Eero! "----The History of Imperial Wars, Volume 5, Chapter 7, "Raging Fire"

The cold wind blew in his face, and it felt like a knife cutting his face.

Kabrin, the commander of the Eastern Ero Army, rode on his warhorse, his eyes fixed on the scattered and disorderly formation of the Order Army in front of him. He tightened his hand holding the reins of the warhorse, and the war flags were blown by the wind and snapped above his head. The atmosphere of silence was solemn in the entire Eastern Ero Army. The eyes of both the generals and the soldiers were red. They came all the way from the direction of the Rutia Sub-Fort. The scene of the bodies of the Ero soldiers covering the mountains and plains along the way, and the countless Ero team flags trampled in the mud and water made everyone's brains feel dazed. Soon they recognized that many of the military flags were actually the team flags of the Eastern Frontier Army.

It's over, all died here ! The faces of the Eastern Border Army of Eero were quite ugly. They were all comrades who fought together on the desolate border of the east, but the difference of just a few hours was already a matter of life and death! Tens of thousands of Eastern Border Army, many of whom were the elite among the elite, died here!

When the royal flag of Emperor Eero, which had been shattered into pieces, was finally found in a pile of corpses, the last bit of luck in the heart of the Deputy Commander of the Eastern Border Army, Kabrin, was gone, and the faces of the Generals of Eero were even paler. The fall of the royal flag represented the annihilation of the entire Royal Guards. According to the situation described by the Royal Guards officer brought back by the scout, the main camp of the Royal Guards encountered a powerful attack of several times the number of cavalry at that time. I am afraid that His Majesty the Emperor has already...

"It was just a few hours... "

The generals of the Eastern Frontier Army felt annoyed and ashamed,

because at this moment they had also woken up. This was obviously a trick. The sudden cavalry raid that night was a trap. The opponent's purpose was undoubtedly to stop their approach to the Rutia Sub-Fort, and then use a cavalry group to hunt down the cavalry sent to the Rutia Sub-Fort to report the news. It was this short time difference of six or seven hours that became the main reason for the disastrous defeat of the entire battle.

The opponent took advantage of the gap between themselves and the emperor's army, and took advantage of the time difference of six or seven hours. They suddenly cut in with 20,000 to 30,000 elite cavalry. When the Royal Guards were completely unprepared, they used several times the cavalry to crush the entire Ero Royal Guards, and finally killed His Majesty the Emperor, causing the entire battle situation to collapse and be unable to be saved! Is this still a human being? The strategic ability shown by the opponent in this battle has reached an inhuman level!

"What should we do now?" The generals of the Eastern Ero Army all looked at Kablin,

Kablin remained silent, his face uncertain. The emperor died in battle and the army collapsed. All this was due to the failure of the Eastern Army he commanded to arrive at the battlefield on time. Once such news spread, all the hard work he had worked hard for decades would be lost. Kabulin was obviously unwilling to go back to the royal capital with his reputation ruined. He had suffered in the wild border for more than twenty years. Is this the result of his return? Moreover, what happened this time was so big that even His Majesty the Emperor died. If the punishment was really imposed, not only themselves, but also the family members behind them would not be able to escape. The entire Eero is so big that they would have no place to stand. At!

"Sir, in fact, our army may not be able to make a turn for the better!" Viscount Kenafele, who was still oozing blood red from the white cloth wrapped around his body, made a difficult voice.

"Turnaround?" Kablin looked at him with cold eyes. Although this remnant of the Guards was seriously injured, as long as his ribs were broken by the Imperial Cavalry horse during the attack, it was not a problem in itself. There were no fatal injuries. He came with the army as the only witness to the real situation last night.

"Sir, before our army was attacked, our army had been fighting fiercely with the religious legion for five hours, and had achieved a decisive victory. If we hadn't been attacked suddenly, we would have been cheering for victory!" The Viscount's eyes swept across the battlefield painfully, and he said every word in a hoarse voice.

"Are you saying that the religious regiment also suffered heavy losses?" Kabulin hesitated and vaguely grasped the core of this sentence.

"Yes, not only have the losses been heavy, but the morale of the army has been completely wiped out! Although the battle was turned around in the end, I can guarantee that the remaining number of the religious army will never exceed 100,000, and their combat power has been greatly damaged. It is a miracle to be able to exert the combat power of 50,000 people, and His Majesty the Emperor is probably in the hands of the religious legion at this moment."

Viscount Kennerferre nodded and replied, his eyes flashing with heat. As an officer of the Imperial Guard, he has sworn allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor from the day he joined. The current situation shows that His Majesty the Emperor may not be dead. It is very likely that he is. He was captured by the Legion Army, and the only power that can save His Majesty the Emperor is right in front of him! He must give it a try no matter what. Once such thoughts arise, Kenafele feels more and more that the emperor must still be alive and must be detained in the camp of the religious army. This kind of spirit is similar to the one that explodes under great pressure. The symptoms made his expression look a little crazy.

"How are you sure that His Majesty the Emperor is in the hands of the Legion?" Kablin frowned tightly.

"What are you still hesitating about? His Majesty the Emperor is now waiting for rescue in the religious camp. Every minute of delay here is a sign of disloyalty to His Majesty the Emperor!" Kenafele looked serious.

"His Majesty the Emperor is in the hands of the enemy, and he hurried back to the capital without even taking the most basic actions. If such news is spread back, have you ever thought about the consequences?"

"Faced with a beaten and collapsed religious regiment, don't you dare to have the courage to fight?"

Under Kenafele's questioning, Kabulin's expression became more solemn, and the expressions of other generals also became more and more strange. What this guard said was not wrong. The emperor may not be dead. Even if he was not captured, facing an army of the Order that had just experienced a major defeat, wouldn't Lord Kablin dare to fight to the death? As a soldier of Ero, it was safe to return to the royal capital in such a dishonorable manner, but how could he be qualified to stand upright in front of others!

"Give the order, immediately follow the traces and look for traces of the enemy!" Kablin ordered in a low voice with a serious expression.

Two and a half hours later, the scouts sent back a report of the discovery of the Order Army's camp. This can only be said to be that the Order Army was really unlucky. Because there were too many wounded soldiers, the traces of the entire Order Army's march were undoubtedly It was quite obvious that the scouts followed the traces all the way. The religious regiment army, which was unable to march for a long time due to the burden of wounded soldiers, was almost directly exposed to the eyes of the Eastern Army scouts.

As for the Imperial Army, because the Port of Hérault is so conspicuous, no one would have thought that the Imperial Army would be stationed openly outside the Port of Hérault. The scouts of the Hérault Army all missed the direction of the Port of Hérault. This is quite a surprise. A serious mistake, at the first moment, the religious army entered the eyes of the Eastern Army of 100,000 eros, which was looking for them.

"How many troops are there in the Order Army?" Kabulin asked the scouts who came to report with a solemn expression. Until this moment, he still had not made up his mind whether to turn to the capital of Aero or to pursue the Order Army to save the emperor. As a As a veteran, Kabulin knows what these two choices mean.

As the last heavy army group of the Ero Empire, when the army was defeated and the emperor disappeared, it was undoubtedly the safest way to return to defend the capital of Ero.

But what the guard officer said was correct. If he retreated to the royal capital like this, it would have allowed Eero to stabilize the situation, but he would have become the culprit of the entire fiasco, even though he ordered to stop advancing that night. It was quite a correct order, and it was supported by most of the generals, but all these rational decisions were in vain when His Majesty the Emperor's life and death were unknown!

"The enemy's strength is only between 60,000 and 70,000, and a large number of wounded soldiers have indeed been found! We also searched within ten miles of the religious regiment's camp and found no other troops." The scout answered in detail, revealing quite a lot of information. Reconnaissance experience, this is the advantage of frontier scouts. They have been in combat readiness situations all year round, and their combat experience and willpower are top-notch.

Following the scout's answer, the generals of the eastern frontier of Héro also began to stir. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was hard to find even with a lantern. No matter whether the emperor was in the camp of the Order's army or not, he just went to the Order. The fact that the army is not strong enough and the camp is full of wounded soldiers is already worth a try.

"My lord, if what this Guards officer said is true, then what we have in front of us now is the last strength of the Order Army. If we eliminate them, we can end the entire war!" A general of the Eastern Front Army of Héro said impatiently

"Sir, if the Pope of the Order Country can be captured alive, I believe the mistakes made in Lutia Castle can be alleviated."

"Come on, if such a prey escapes, it will be difficult to catch it again!" The generals' eyes were bright. They had just experienced a tragic defeat, and suddenly they saw hope. How about such a temptation? If you can endure it, the emperor's life and death will be a huge loss, but if you can capture the Pope of the Order, ending the entire war will be a huge victory that can wash away everything. And such a victory is right in front of you, just reach out and get it! Go get it!

"Send the order, the whole army marches urgently, and goes straight to the religious regiment's camp!"

Kablin snorted on his thoughtful face. For the sake of his family, he chose to attack! , no matter whether they can win in the end, at least they won't be scolded for avoiding battle. Moreover, Kabulin believes that the opponent's troops are limited. Even if the attack is weak, how much damage can it cause to the 100,000-Ero eastern frontier army?

If only there was one person who could be in the cloud at this moment. Everything can be seen. You can see that in the distance from the capital of Hérault to the port of Hérault, going south and north, attacking and attacking, defending and hiding, the fate of the two countries and the fate of countless people are all affected. In this war, we are just waiting for the final showdown!

Outside the Hérault camp, the two armies faced each other. The sound of the wilderness passing by spread to all directions, shocking people's hearts. The battle flags were blown by the cold wind behind the two armies.

"go ahead!"

The huge front wing composed of the eastern frontier troops of Erault rushed forward like a comb, almost completely ignoring the oppressive gaze of the religious regiment army, and directly pressed the entire line, and the two huge black lines began to slowly accelerate forward.

"Woooo" I felt the sound of the horn tearing through the sky above my head. The clear sound of metal breaking like a gun being broken and a knife being broken resounded through the battlefield like hell. The spear was broken, the horse fell, the military flag shook, and the shield hit the head hard. , the ax split the helmet, and on the fierce battle line, the flags of the two armies seemed to be rolling in the surging tide of people, like the waves rolling, flapping, colliding, and biting each other with all available weapons.

Blood splattered on the faces of the warriors on both sides, making them look like ferocious beasts!
