Realm of Power

Black smoke spreads over the Port of Hérault, like a huge black cloud pressing over the city

In the blazing flames, the air was briefly close to solidification. The nearly 80,000 main force of the Hérault Eastern Army were fully committed to the battlefield in the southern area of ​​Port Hérault. For a time, the number of Hérault soldiers wearing red armor increased sharply in the direction of the southern area, shouting slogan, shield, spear , rolling forward like an angry wave, the crowds are surging, the armor is clanking, and the sun is piercing the skin. The field of vision seems to be slightly distorted, like a scattered stream, rushing towards the port, like a furious wave. crashed into the south zone defense line

"Shoot, stop them!"

The imperial heavy ballista from the high building fired deadly heavy arrows towards the sea of ​​people below, bang! At the location where he was hit, flesh and blood flew everywhere, like a huge hill collapsing, flesh and blood turned into powder, the human body flew into the air, the shield was twisted and broken, the soldiers in the front row were killed by force, and the soldiers in the back row were killed quickly. Filling the vacant position, under the charge of such a large group, dozens of imperial heavy ballistae set off The waves of blood seemed so insignificant. Some of the Eero heavy infantry even dropped their shields and rushed forward against the crossbow arrows fired by the emperor in front. The Eero infantry was getting closer and closer, 100 meters, 50 meters. The number of people and the momentum were so great. Powerful, it feels as if the entire earth is being submerged right in front of you.

"Kill!" The fierce shouts finally broke out. The imperial soldiers in front were running away in a hurry. Obviously, they did not expect that the Ero army would suddenly attack the southern area with all its strength, almost collapsing at the first touch. This was not for the always brave Imperial army. To say that it is rare is enough to illustrate the success of this raid!

Even General Ayrault's side was filled with excitement.

"It's so easy. Are we really looking at the Imperial Army that swept through the 700,000 coalition forces in the south?" A General Ayrault couldn't believe it.

"The Imperial Army is certain. It can face nearly ten times the enemy and retreat calmly, which is enough to show its elite level. But sadly, the commander of this Imperial Army is really not very good! The famous imperial general Ruyun, general Ruyu, why did they send such a newcomer to the battlefield? It's a pity If these 30,000 elite cavalrymen of the empire are placed in a field battle on the plains, let alone 100,000 infantry, even 200,000 infantry may not be able to catch their tails. But now they are tying their own hands and feet, what else do we have to fear? ! "Another General Ayrault showed a contemptuous smile. "Ahaha!"

Generals Ayrault burst into laughter, and even the commander of the Eastern Army, Kablin, had a smile on his face.

For the first time, he felt that victory was in sight. The pressure caused by the emperor's death in battle and the collapse of the army caused even him, a veteran Eero who had been on the eastern border for twenty years, to feel the pressure and force his troops to attack. The religious legion then rushed straight towards the Imperial Army in Port Hérault. , this series of lightning-like assault operations almost squeezed out the entire eastern frontier army's strength. If it weren't for him, Kablin had been in the eastern frontier army for more than 20 years and was regarded as the rock of the eastern border. They were all convinced by him. If it had been another general, the whole army would have mutinied long ago.

And now, this miraculous series of defeats has finally reached the final juncture.

Kabulin also felt that his nerves were about to go crazy under the tremendous pressure. He clenched the riding crop with his fingers and made a gurgling sound.

This is his only chance. After he orders the army to turn to attack, life or death depends on this one move. There is no way out and no possibility of turning back. Will he become a famous general known throughout Oparo, or will he become the ridicule of countless people? Synonymous with this battle, the Southern District is the most critical node in the breakthrough battle of Port Hérault. If we capture the Southern District, we can completely cut off the retreat route of the Imperial Army in the city, and there will be a glorious smooth road behind!

Annihilate all 30,000 imperial elites, capture the important officials of the empire, and regain the golden port of Eero from the empire. This is enough to become a bargaining chip to force the empire to cease war with Eero, defeat the army of the Order State that invaded Eero, and save the Eero Empire. In danger, he tried his best to turn the tide and finally drove out the religious legion who were no longer able to fight. Go and regain the lost territory. When the time comes, you only need to station troops outside the royal capital. Someone from the royal capital will naturally come out to speak to you. After all, the last combatable legion of the Aero Empire is in your hands now. For the Aero Royal Capital, Speaking of which, by then it will be too late to even fawn over, and who will have the heart to pursue the death of the late king! This is the best result for him, Kabulin, and the best result for the eastern frontier army! All of this is here to win the Southern District!

Outside the gate of Sky Temple,

"His Majesty!"

In the hall of the Sky Temple, Imperial General Varisien was riding on a war horse, wearing heavy armor. A large red cloak was put on the thick black heavy armor. Behind him, there were two imperial flag captains. When they saw the emperor His Majesty walked out of the temple and neatly put his right hand on his chest to salute. Rows of imperial black-armored cavalry stood tall and proud on their horses. The cavalry capes behind them were fluttering like battle flags. The imperial falcon battle flag was flying on the towering cavalry. Flying from the gun

The murderous intent of thousands of imperial heavy armored cavalry made Putamia, who followed the fat man, feel cold on her skin. The Templar Knights under her command were also heavy armored cavalry, but her eyes fell on these heavy armored men in black. The war horses are equipped with various weapons, and the equipment on them is like a killing machine, and their eyes are a bit imaginary.

Behind these thousand Imperial heavy armored cavalry were more Imperial cavalry, so densely packed that they almost filled the vast square in front of the Sky Temple. Under normal circumstances, this wide square could accommodate tens of thousands of people. The place where the Sky Temple is used to hold events is now filled with imperial cavalry.

The army is fighting in silence, waiting for only one person

"The main force of the Eero army has entered the southern area, let's get started!" The fat man glanced at the imperial cavalry in formation, and nodded sternly towards Varisien at the front.

"I understand, Your Majesty!"

A sinister smile appeared at the corner of Varisien's mouth, he put on the helmet in his hand, and ran towards the South District with the heavy armored cavalry behind him. Rows of black men followed closely behind, and drove past one after another, roaring towards the South District. The roar swept down, the war horses put down their face armor, and the towering cavalry The sharp edge of the soldiers' spears shone coldly in the light. "The Imperial Army is crazy. They want to use cavalry in urban areas. Don't they know that cavalry attacks cannot be launched on the streets?" Putamia heard the Templar Knight behind her. The voice of discussion showed a touch of embarrassment on the pretty face

She said in a deep voice to the Templars who were talking behind her, "There are some things that I don't know so I shouldn't talk nonsense. The last time I came to Port Hérault, I passed through the Southern District. As the largest maritime trade port in Barro in southern Europe, more than half of the Southern District is Belonging to the port area, most of them are cargo yards where goods are accumulated. For the convenience of transportation, the roads are wide enough to allow eight carriages to pass parallelly. If it is cleared, there will be no difference from an open land, or even nothing. An open space without any barriers!”

"Most of the open land in the southern district... a road that can carry eight carriages in parallel... The empire is indeed a luxury!" After hearing Potamia's words, the Templars' expressions couldn't help but change. It was so shameless. Got it!

If it is true as His Highness the Pope said, it would be extremely clever for the Empire to use the southern area as a cavalry battlefield. Even if the Eero East Army broke their heads, they did not expect that the Empire could clear such a huge open terrain in the city! I knew there must be something fishy about the Imperial Cavalry suddenly retracting into the city. How could all the 30,000 Imperial Cavalry be used as infantry?

There are great restrictions on the use of cavalry in urban areas, but in the Southern District, there is an obvious exception! This exception will become a fatal trap for the Eero army that invades the southern district. What's more, the empire has also mobilized thousands of heavy armored cavalry this time. Think about the scene of these heavy armored cavalry crushing into the streets in formation. The Templars also felt a little frightened inside!

"Charge!" The Eero soldiers rushed into the South District. The Eero soldiers rushed into the streets and sailed through the houses. The crossbows from high places occasionally hit one or two people, but they had little impact on the large army.

"What are you doing? The target is the port!" An Ayrault officer yelled at the soldiers who were trying to break open the door next to him. The soldiers who broke the door also discovered that all the house doors were blocked, and the end of the street ahead It's a huge square

"Stop!" Officer Ayrault, who was leading the team, raised his hand. The square in front of him was too big. The cold wind brought a dampness to his face. It was almost impossible to see the open space at the end. No one expected that it would be in the south. In the center of the district, seeing such a huge square, I was at a loss for a moment, and the strangest thing was that there was no one left. Where was the Imperial Army? Where are people? Did we go the wrong way?

"Sir, I think this seems to be the cargo yard of the port, the port cargo yard of the Southern District," a soldier said in a timid voice.

"Port cargo yard? Are you kidding me? Such a large port cargo yard, you know how much goods are needed to fill it. Do you think I am a country bumpkin who has never even seen a port cargo yard!" The officer yelled and looked around. Finally, he couldn't help but take a breath of air-conditioning. "Besides it being a port, there seems to be no other possibility to explain such a huge port!"

"It looks like the Sixth Army is in front!"

"The Eighth Army, did the Eighth Army rush in too?"

"It's that bunch of shit from the 16th Army. Even they rushed in."

Groups of Eero troops rushing into the South District poured out from various intersections in this square. They stared at each other, and they were all confused in front of such a huge square. The square with the final target of the battle was actually here? There is no defensive force at all, not even the most basic defenses are used. From here, you can even see a line of whitecaps on the blue sea in the distance.

"No matter, go ahead and occupy this place, there are so many of us!" A squadron was the first to enter the port cargo yard and saw someone entering. Other Eero troops also began to drive in one after another. The ship dock at the port was discovered. "Lord Kablin's arrangement is really clever. The empire has only 30,000 troops. Faced with such a sudden attack, even if it wants to mobilize troops, it may not be possible."

Standing on the vast pier stone with no edge visible, the white lines formed by the rolling waves on the pier embankment, and the piles of Titos used to park ships, Itair, commander of the Eighth Army of the Eastern Frontier Army of Hérault Standing proudly against the sea breeze, the port, this is the port of the Southern District. There is no doubt that these huge docked ships must have been filled with huge merchant ships from all over the world in the past. I originally thought it would be the most difficult offensive and defensive battle, but who knew it would be so easy to get! "Report immediately to Lord Kabulin, the port is already under the control of our Eighth Legion!" Itair turned around from the stage and said to the messenger cavalry behind him, just as he finished speaking. , chaotic sounds came from the distance, "Enemy attack!" shrill shouts, countless black-armored cavalry were like generals. A black line flashed out from the mist in the distance, roaring like thunder. It was impossible to distinguish the points. It just made a rumbling sound. At this moment, the earth thundered, and I thought of a sharp and huge scythe, scattered in the port. The Eero soldiers on the square suddenly attacked, advancing so fast that in the blink of an eye they were "Bah, bang, bang!"

The sword was like a knife inserted deeply into the group of Hérault soldiers who were completely in chaos. The sharp cavalry thrust forward effortlessly drowned the first squadron they encountered. In front of such a group of cavalry, the flesh and blood body, It was like the sound of tearing cotton, and the blood that suddenly exploded was so gorgeous. "It's a cavalry, an imperial heavy armored cavalry!" The shrill voice was even more desperate, "This... turned out to be a cavalry attack, I'm here The city was charged by imperial cavalry?

Itair watched in stunned silence as his subordinates in the square were scattered and trampled to pieces under the hooves of the forcibly charging horses. The sharp charge formed by these heavily equipped imperial cavalry, the stabbing spear in his hand just moved forward, and with the help of The high-speed impact of the war horse was like a sharp blade, causing the Eero soldiers who were caught off guard to fall down.

After the horse's hoof passed, long bloody marks made of blood and minced meat were revealed.

"I am Aruin of the 16th Army, everyone come closer to me!" A tall and strong man from Erro shouted bravely. There were about a hundred guards around him with their spears raised, like faces. To a stubborn stone in the rushing torrent,

"Boom boom boom"

The black heavy armored cavalry hit him like a wall.

Bang bang, flesh and blood spattered, and the blood seemed to be squeezed and exploded by some force. More than a hundred guards were pushed down like fragile tissue paper, and General Ayrault was pierced by countless lances that came up from cover. His body, the gleaming spear head exploded from his back with hot blood, and his whole body was lifted off the ground by the spear running forward, and then was dropped heavily on the ground.

"It's the commander of the 16th Army, Aruin!"

Seeing this scene, Itair's whole back felt cold. The Sixteenth Army was just a miscellaneous force among the eastern frontier army. It was mainly composed of Kalua people from the border areas. It was not a very orthodox Eero. man, but this does not mean that the commander of the 16th Army, Aruin, is bad. On the contrary, this A barbarian with Kalua blood, he has the most powerful force among the generals of the entire eastern frontier army. He likes to compete with each other if they disagree with each other. Not only 100 but also 80 people died under his fists. He is a famous figure in the army. The God of Death, it is even said that he once broke the neck of a bison with his bare hands in the wild.

But even such a fierce man can only die with one shot in front of the overwhelming Empire's heavy armored cavalry! rw
