Realm of Power

Sourav Mesa,

After the heavy rain, the ground was muddy. More than a hundred armored cavalry moved forward in the rain, splashing up large black and yellow mud balls. The blood and mud on each knight's body were mixed together, making them look extremely embarrassed. The drizzle is still falling continuously, and too many corpses of people and horses have been piled up on the tidal flats of the river ahead. The originally moist water has become puddle after puddle of blood. Thousands of corpses are lying on both sides of the river, and the cold light of various swords is still there. flashing in the rain

In the drizzle, looking at the Rila people in front of them who were temporarily withdrawing like a tide, the King of Lobos, Pramkasit, had a complicated look on his face. He tightened the reins of his war horse with his right hand. In the drizzle, tens of thousands of Lobos The Sri Lankan army defended from the bottom of the hill layer by layer, standing in groups at the top. The flag of the Kingdom of Robles was above his head, filled with water and wrapped around the flagpole. Pramkarsi was riding a horse, looking at the opposite side carefully.

Ever since Ruila's army defeated the left line of the Royal Robles Army last night, the Robles Army has been retreating continuously, and it was only until this river that it could be considered stable.

Robles' military equipment was by no means sophisticated, but he grew up in the northern hills of Barro in Central Europe. On one side was the rebellion of the mountainous Qiuluo people, and on the other was the towering Suta Mountain that blocked the road to the north. Until ten years ago, Robles Only then did the kingdom put down the rebellion of the Qiulu people, allowing the development of the Lobos Kingdom to enter a stable period. Then the Hungarian Rebellion swept through the Barrow countries in Central Europe. The Lobos Kingdom was located in Central Europe. The mountainous area to the north of Barrow, with high mountains and dense forests, is not a good terrain for cavalry operations. Therefore, the Hungarian cavalry did not enter the Kingdom of Robles, but chose to pass by the southern line of the Kingdom of Robles. The Kingdom of Robles unexpectedly escaped. After the Hungarian ravages, during the Hungarian Rebellion, a large number of craftsmen were absorbed from other countries invaded by the Hungarians, allowing the country's forging skills to advance by leaps and bounds.

The Lobos people are the most feared by other countries, and they are the Lobos mountain strong bow shooters. The longbows used by the Lobos strong archers are made of composite materials, usually made of fir narrow boards, which are almost as similar as the archers. Same height. The toe of the bow is carved from cow and sheep horns, and the bow string is made of hemp fiber. To pull the bow string, you need a pulling force of thirty kilograms, and the range can reach 150 meters.

The Robles longbowmen are best at attacking the upper part of the enemy fiercely at a high parabolic angle. Using the inertia of falling from high altitude, they can easily penetrate ordinary mail armor. Each archer carries 24 arrows, tied together. Put it in the quiver. After using up, go to the supply caravan to get it. After the Lobos longbowmen line up, they will insert the arrows on the ground in front of their feet, so that they can be retrieved more conveniently.

This time, King Robles can be said to have completely drained the longbows of the country. There are a total of 3,000 Robles longbowmen. The best battlefield for the longbows is undoubtedly the beach in front of them. Although the water flow in the river can Swimming, but it can greatly slow down the opponent's speed, so Robles' army actually retreated here step by step on purpose.

Only then did Pramkasit look away from the distance with a solemn expression, took a deep breath, turned to Military Minister Hattusya behind him and asked, "Is there any movement from the empire?"

Minister of Military Affairs Hattusya shook his head, but with a hint of excitement on his face, he said in a serious voice: "No, the empire's reaction was still calm, as if they didn't know about it at all, and there was no sneak attack on the Rila people. Our army did not show any intention to intervene in this battle. Otherwise, at this moment, even if the main force of the empire's army is still in the religious order country in the south, the Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs should express the empire's attitude towards the Rila people's attack."

"So, we made the right bet!" After hearing Hattusya's words, King Lobos's eyes lit up and his voice trembled slightly. This was excitement. The empire or for people like them. Small-scale confrontations look down on them, but for them, it is a decisive war that affects the weather vane of the Barrow countries in Central Europe.

"Yes, Your Majesty, we won the bet. The empire should not intervene in this battle, and it was the Rila people who attacked first. Even if the empire asks, we still stand on the moral ground. We can definitely blame the Rila people. Destroy the agreement that Central European Barrow signed with the Empire, not us Robles "Kingdom" Hattusia's voice paused, with a look of disdain on his face, and he snorted. "The Rila people have been under the banner of the Empire Alliance in the past few months. In the Barrow region of Central Europe, they are like Claiming to be the spokesperson of the empire, and forming the Hanshan Alliance to monopolize trade routes this time, it was also in the name of being a spokesperson. In the name of supervising the empire, the reason why other countries have to bow their heads is actually because they think that the Empire is standing behind the Rilla people. But now, the Rilla people have launched an attack on our army, and the empire has not responded, which shows that the empire does not agree with the Rilla people at all. Everything the Rila people have done, and everything the Rila people are doing now, is the result of King Rila Personally, I was originally worried that the empire would side with the Riela people, but now I can let go of that worry. It seems that the empire is dissatisfied with the Riela people’s performance, as long as they don’t blatantly support the Riela people. From my standpoint, this is the best news for us, King Robles."

"Well said, no news is the best news." The king of Lobos, Pramkasit, seemed to have thought of something. A sinister smile appeared on his lips. He pulled the reins, and the war horse neighed and galloped under the mound. "Sent Go to the Ruila Army. Tomorrow morning, we will have a decisive battle with the Ruila people here! The Ruila people have been arrogant and domineering for twenty years and always think that they are the lords of Obalo. It’s time to wake them up."

On May 4th, the Robles Kingdom Army requested a decisive battle from the Rayla Kingdom Army.

"Haha, it seems that the Lobos people are ready to take a gamble."

"The Lobos people have not had a large-scale war for fifteen years. I am afraid they have forgotten what a mountain of corpses is and a sea of ​​blood." The generals of the Rila Kingdom looked down upon the Lobos people's request. If it weren't for the Hungarian Rebellion, the Robles Kingdom would be nothing. Moreover, the confrontation between the two countries actually started two months ago when the struggle for control of the Sulav Platform began. The Rela Army's rebuke The scouts of Hou and the Lobos people were working hard to detect the opponent's troop configuration, and at the same time, they also prevented the opponent's scouts from spying on their own side. The scale of the battle was not large, but the casualties were tragic. Entire teams of scouts from both sides were wiped out by the other side. On the ground, the number of casualties of scouts on both sides has exceeded 500. Now that the Ruela Army has taken advantage of breaking through the left line and swept over with a overwhelming offensive, the disadvantage of the Kingdom of Robles has become even more obvious.

"Tell the Lobos that we agree to their request for a decisive battle!"

Lu Si, the commander-in-chief of Ruila, pressed the delivered book of decisive battle directly on the table, and ordered that the head of the messenger be cut off and sent back together with the book of battle.

"Sir, is this..." The expressions of the generals of the Kingdom Army of the Hanshan Alliance changed. This time, the Rila people suddenly attacked the Lobos people, which was a bit unreasonable, and now they killed the opponent's people. Messenger, it’s really hard to explain.

"Why do you need to worry about these small things? You are just a messenger. What is the difference between dying today and dying tomorrow?"

Lu Si said with arrogant disdain. He was at the peak of his life, exuding enthusiastic vitality. He is of medium height, has a vigorous crew cut, light brown skin, and sharp eyes. His whole body is full of the crisp and neat temperament unique to a soldier. It was he who proposed the plan to attack the Royal Robles Army first. The sun shines through the dense In the woods, fish-belly white appeared in the east, and the first morning light A ray of sunlight has already shone in, illuminating the dark woods, the damp muddy ground, the unknown frightened birds chirping on the branches, and the large army of Robles' army arrayed on the river tidal flats, "Woo woo woo." Woo..." The desolate war horns resounded across the vast land, and one after another the Ruila army An infantry team left the camp. On the side of the array of Rila's army, there were also many infantry formations wearing armors of various colors. These were troops from other kingdoms. It can be seen that the equipment was different from Rila's. The gap between people is huge, and many people wear various beast-like leathers on their heads. The headdress looks full of barbaric atmosphere, and the weapons in his hands are crude, including spiked sticks, heavy long-handled axes, and hammers made with simple methods, including standard long knives. The number of people is 2 Between ten thousand and ten thousand, in front of the queue, the military flags representing the countries to which these soldiers belong are flying.

Lu Si curled her lips slightly with disdain. This time His Majesty Owitt gave him a full 30,000 rila army. Together with other troops from the Hanshan Alliance, the total number was 67,000. Opposite Robert Due to the losses on the left line, the Shaju Alliance of the Royal Sri Lankan Army currently has less than 40,000 men. The strength of the two sides is quite different. The ratio is obvious, and the morale of our side is high, and the military flag is flying like the sea. On the other hand, the opponent's lineup is sparse, and everyone is dejected. It is a miracle that half of the ten combat strengths can be used. They can only rely on the river to stabilize their feet. The opponent actually expects to be able to It's ridiculous to come back through a decisive battle!

"The army moves forward!"

Lu Si sneered, raised her right hand high

"Must win! Must win! Must win!" A sound like a tsunami and landslide came from the team in front. Lu Si arranged all 11 teams of 30,000 Ruela troops in the middle, wearing armor on their bodies and holding solid spirits in their hands. Iron Shield Wall, Rilla Although they suffered heavy losses, there was no shortage of armaments. All the armaments left behind when the more than 100,000 Hungarian troops collapsed fell into the hands of the Rila people. This time, in order to seize the Sulav Platform, whether the Kingdom of Rila could be restored Come here with great Because of the important significance, Owitt simply gritted his teeth and sent the young army that had just formed an army in the country. On the one hand, it would make the young calves fearless of tigers. At the same time, it would also allow this army to see blood. After all, , the Rila people have never regarded the newly rising Kingdom of Lobos as their equal enemies. Who are the Lobos people? The empire just scares them and immediately runs to the despicable people who are responsible for the empire, and Ruila was the hero who resisted Hungary twice.

"Kill!" The offensive black line headed by the 30,000-riela youth army began to step into the river in front of them. It was only seven or eight meters wide, and the deepest point only reached the waist. Countless pairs of feet stepped on the golden water, and the river seemed All are tumbling

"Attention, arrow attack!" A fierce whistling sound quickly covered the area, and the large clusters of arrows were like large black clouds in the sky that instantly turned into raindrops, like metal waterfalls falling from the sky, snap, snap, snap. The well-prepared Rila soldiers raised their shields high and quickly gathered into a group. The shields flipped piece by piece, dense rain of arrows hit the shields, and countless tail clusters were bounced away. This large-area coverage was like If a blind cat bumps into a dead mouse, the threat it can pose is really very limited!

"Haha, the Lobos people have been away from the war for too long, and they are still using such backward tactics. It's really stupid."

A smile appeared on Lu Si's unconcerned lips, and he raised his hand. Behind him, dozens of large trebuchets began to pull the winches, and the huge trebuchet arms tightened as the winches pulled. With one command, more than a dozen balls The rolling stones made a roaring sound, and fell towards the huge crowd of Robles' army on the other side of the river tidal flat. With a roar, the stones hit the crowd hard. No shield could withstand this irresistible terrorist attack, and brains flew everywhere. . Minced meat flew everywhere and shields were twisted. This effect was more shocking than the actual battle on the battlefield. A piece of the neatly arranged queue was directly dug out.

The soldiers of Robles Army opened their eyes wide with fear on their faces, and got out of the way in a panic. At this moment, blood gurgled out from under the stone ball in the stop, infecting the mud on the ground. Originally, he wanted to laugh a few times. Soldier Robles felt as if he had been punched on the bridge of the nose at this time, feeling both sweet and bitter. The roar came again, and stones were thrown like a stream. It hit like a star, and the dense and crowded crowd was pierced like paper. The boulder ball did not stop immediately when it hit the ground, but rolled forward a distance of twenty or thirty meters under the action of inertia. Wherever they passed, a piece of broken limbs mixed with blood was thrown up, and a large piece of the entire queue seemed to have been swept away.

"Send the order, and the entire army will retreat three hundred meters!" King Robles's face was a little pale, and he gritted his teeth and said in a solemn voice,

"Your Majesty, it is not advisable for the army to move at this moment. Otherwise, if there is a disconnect, the opponent will take the opportunity to kill you!" Hattusya, the Minister of Military Affairs next to him, quickly stopped him and said in a low voice, "Now we can only hold on, and the opponent's stones will not stop us." There are a lot of them, and the opponent is about to land, so the deterrent effect of the opponent's stone throwing will be much smaller!"

"Okay!" Pramkasi nodded. His military talents were average, but as the leader of the resurgence of the Lobos Kingdom, he still had merit. Hattusya was already in the Lobos Army. For fourteen years, although there has been no major war in the Robles Kingdom for more than ten years, Haha However, Tusiya is still paying close attention to the war on the Oparo Continent, and has been planning for a long time to challenge the Kingdom of Ruila. The real victory or defeat does not actually lie on the battlefield, but whether the empire supports Ruila or not. La Ren continues to be the spokesperson of the Empire in Central Europe Barrow!
