Realm of Power

The clouds are hazy, and the sun shines down from above. It is more like a layer of water flowing on the earth. On the ground in the northwest, thousands of troops and horses are coming quickly from east to west. The smoke column rises, and a team of thousands of people in the temple The military cavalry rushed towards the location of the stone bridge. The scene in front gradually became clearer. The Templar cavalry quickly slowed down and finally stopped.

Opposite them, tens of thousands of imperial black-armored horse archers rushed towards them like a large spread net.

"What's going on?"

"Imperial Cavalry! It's Imperial Cavalry"

All around are an endless torrent of men and horses, dense clouds of swords and black armors like rivers, shining brightly in the morning sun. This is the powerful imperial force that has been tempered and forged into steel after countless fierce battles on the battlefield. The murderous intent that came made the Templar cavalry trapped in the middle turn pale. In just a moment, the Templar cavalry found themselves surrounded by people.

"We are the cavalry of the First Legion of the Templar Army. What do you want to do? Don't forget that this is the land of the Order State." The Templar Commander Mukesu who led the team came out of the queue and faced the surrounding people. The Empire's black-armored cavalry shouted loudly. They were heading straight for the stone bridge here. Along the way, they could see obvious ruts extending from the direction of the camp that was attacked. There were a lot of them. It was conservatively estimated that there were at least Two to three hundred carriages and carriages The tracks are quite deep under the road surface, which is enough to show that the things carried on them are extremely heavy. It is enough to show that the Martin Liya people must be coming here. Judging from the freshness of the traces, the time when the Martin Liya people left is not It won't take long, no more than an hour at most. As long as he works harder, he will definitely be able to catch up. But he didn't expect that they would be surrounded by the Imperial Cavalry here. Such an unexpected situation completely overwhelmed the Templar Cavalry. method reaction

"Is the Emperor going to take action against us?"

"It's over. I knew I shouldn't steal the emperor's supplies. Now it's better. The other party comes directly to kill me."

The Templar cavalry had hesitant expressions on their faces. They looked at the cold-eyed eyes around them and felt the coldness coming from the back of their necks. They couldn't help but think about it. You know, the Templar Army had just confiscated the Imperial supplies in the Holy Capital. Even though the Temple Army believed that the Empire did not dare to fall out and had no choice but to swallow this dumb loss, it would be false if there was no guilt at all. The reputation of the Empire for its barbarity and cruelty was not meant to scare people, and the barbarian Emperor of the Empire was furious. Who can stop him from doing something? You know, this is the tyrant who killed 300,000 Feishan people in one breath in Bavaria. In a battle on the river, he ate ten people in one bite. The murderer who is the main force of the Ten Thousand Martin Riga Cavalry Demon, in just a few days, turned the tide of the entire holy capital war, and defeated half a million Martin warriors, the peerless military god, if he really broke his face, his own more than a thousand temple cavalry In other words, it is qualified to fill the gaps between teeth.

"Everyone, please don't mess up. The emperor will never dare to touch us."

Mukesu shouted with all his strength. He could feel the commotion among his subordinates. What was needed most now was to stabilize the morale of the army. He raised his hand to the surrounding Templar cavalry and said loudly, "Others are afraid of the emperor, but our Temple army does not need it." Fear, in the Holy City, we didn’t even take the emperor’s supplies, and we didn’t see the empire dare to say a word. Do you know why? Because the empire does not dare to break up with our temple army at this moment.

"The Empire needs the Order State as a way to go south, and now the real power in the Order is our Temple Army. Whether the Empire is an ally of the Order State or an invader depends entirely on our Temple Army. Only Our Temple Army recognizes that the Empire is an ally of the Order State. Only then can the Empire truly turn this victory in the battle for southern hegemony into capital for the Empire to move south. Otherwise, it will be in vain, and the main force of Lord Hussa will soon catch up. arrive"

But before Mukesu could finish his words, he saw a white light flying from the direction of the imperial cavalry.

"Puff!" The blood suddenly exploded under everyone's astonished gaze. The arrow cluster, which was still shaking its tail feathers, accurately penetrated into Muxu's neck armor. A bloody Mitsubishi arrow even came out of Muxu's neck. The back of the neck penetrated, and Mukesu's eyes flashed With a big lower bulge, he held on to the arrow cluster that shot through his throat with his right hand in disbelief. Because he was shot through his throat, he could only make a gurgling sound. His body swayed, and he stood up from the war horse. Falling down, the surrounding Templar cavalry were in an uproar.

"Anyone who rushes into the Falcon Khan's formation without permission will be killed without mercy. Others must surrender and put down all their weapons, or suffer the same fate as him." A tall and burly man wearing black armor put down his weapon with a cold expression. The grassland compound bow slowly came out from the Imperial Cavalry. The arrow just now was obviously shot by him. As soon as the other Templar Cavalry took hold of the weapon, they saw countless grassland bows all around. The bow string was broken, and the gleaming metal arrow It looked like stars in the sky under the sun. From the eyes of the man, the Templar cavalry felt that the other party was like looking at a dead person. The other party would really kill everyone. The Templar cavalry felt already in their hearts. Panicked, some showed determination on their faces, ready to fight with the Imperials, while others looked hesitant. The disparity in strength between the two sides was so huge that the other side didn't even need to fight with them, they could just rely on arrow clusters. Shoot all the thousands of people like you into hedgehogs

"Everyone, don't mess around. Save your lives first. I believe Lord Husa will seek justice for us." In the depressing atmosphere, a clear voice said, "嘡啷" Another Knight Commander of the Templar Army first put the knight sword in his hand. Thrown on the ground, the two knight captains who led the army this time, Muxu, had been killed by arrows, and the remaining This is the supreme commander. Seeing that the commander dropped his weapon, the other Templar cavalry also gave up the idea of ​​fighting to the death. Survival is the most important thing. When Lord Husa's main force arrives, they will naturally ask the empire to give him a Let me tell you, if you were killed by the empire in advance without any explanation, that would be an unjust death.

Then one, two, the Templars threw away their weapons one after another, and thousands of Templars were captured collectively. This was the first time in the Templar Army’s war history.

"Your Majesty, we have captured them all!"

Salton looked at the signal flag coming from the distance, with a rare expression of excitement on his face. This was the last Templar Knights of the Templar Army, and it was also the only one that Husa could catch up with Martin's remnant army. The power of the mobile cavalry was easily broken by the Emperor. From this moment on, the Temple Army could no longer catch up with the horse. With the possibility of Ding Liya's remnant army and the rise of Hu Sa's Temple Army, it can be said that it is really on the verge of doom at this moment. An hour later, the main force of Hu Sa's Temple Army appeared on the horizon. Hu Sa's side has obviously received the advance. report and sent a Templar envoy to ask why the Empire was attacking their people.

The person who received this special envoy was naturally Salton. He curled his lips with a cold expression. "To attack His Majesty the Emperor's main formation without authorization and just kill the first offender is already an extra mercy from His Majesty. If it weren't for the fact that we are all allies." For my sake, all you see now is a line of corpses."

"Okay, even if we attack His Majesty the Emperor's formation, the first offender has been dealt with. Please leave the others to us to take back, unless the empire wants to tear up our alliance agreement." The special envoy of the Temple Army looked at Looking around, they looked arrogant and said in a disdainful tone that the alliance agreement was their biggest support, and it was the same in the past. As soon as the Temple Army proposed the alliance agreement, the empire would immediately give in.

"Alliance agreement? Are you kidding me? When you forcibly confiscated our imperial capital in the Holy Capital, you did not mention the alliance relationship with us. However, our army fought hard in the river with the main force of the Martin Liya Cavalry. You Not a single soldier participated in the battle, but after the war, he said that the credit for defeating the Martin Liya people was all yours."

Salton's voice paused, and he smiled slightly. "And the most important point is, I don't know when the Temple Army can represent the Order State? From the very beginning, there was only one person who signed the agreement in our empire. Then His Highness the Pope Potamia! We have never had an agreement with the Temple Army. You are really naive. You really think that relying on a so-called agreement can make the empire retreat. If Husa is now It's in the Holy City, hand Holding the power of the Order State, even Pope Potamia had to surrender. Naturally, he can threaten the empire. But now that Husa has left the Holy City, what qualifications does he have to represent the Order State, even if it is our imperial team? After wiping out all the Templar Army outside the Holy Capital, as long as His Highness Potamia added a name for the Templar Army's rebellion afterwards, even the forces in the south would be blameless, because the top leader of the Order State has always been His Highness the Pope of Potamia

Naturally, it is Putamia who has the final say whether the empire invades or not. It is also Putamia who has the final say whether the Templar Army is a hero or a rebel. The moment the Temple Army leaves the Holy City, it is tantamount to putting themselves free. On the chopping board of being slaughtered, it’s just that the Temple Army doesn’t know it yet. At this moment, the Temple Army wants to return to the Holy Capital, but they can’t go back. The Imperial Army blocks the return route.

"you……"

The face of the Temple Army envoy changed greatly. Although he didn't want to admit it, the fact was true. The Temple Army that left the Holy City was an opposing force and was not qualified to represent the Order State. It was ridiculous that the Temple Army still had Believing that the empire could be constantly threatened, the Templar envoy glanced at the murderous Imperial cavalry phalanx and immediately knew that the emperor Why are they arrayed here? This is the only way to cross the river. If the Temple Army wants to return to the Holy Capital, this is the only way. Otherwise, they will have to walk more than 20 miles upriver. They have been fighting fiercely all night. Now that the Temple Army has lost even the last of its mobile cavalry, it is impossible for the Temple Army to move upriver for more than 20 miles under the watchful eyes of the Imperial Cavalry.

The river in front of us has undoubtedly become the dividing line that completely blocks the Temple Army.

Supplies are the biggest weakness of the Temple Army. Without supplies, going south is a luxury. There is no way to go south. The consequences of the previous expansion will soon explode like a hidden bomb. The camp is attacked and nearly 200,000 Saints are killed. The Temple Army was defeated. Such a mess was too much for people to clean up. Now the only thing left in front of the Temple Army generals was One way is to join the empire. Otherwise, I am afraid that even before returning to the Holy Capital, the tree will fall and the hozens will be scattered. And in such a situation, as long as one person falls to the empire, there will be more behind him. Many people turned to the Empire, and the Temple Army that Lord Husa worked hard to support was actually a wedding dress for the Empire in vain.

"Please go back and tell Lord Husa that Lord Husa should hand over the Empire's supplies. This is the only chance my Majesty has given Lord Husa." Salton's words to the Templar envoy almost made the Templar envoy want to vomit blood. The camp was attacked last night and all the supplies were looted by the Martinliya people. How could there be any supplies left, let alone returning the Empire's supplies?
