Realm of Power

The sky was so gloomy that it seemed like if you stretched out your hand, you could squeeze water out of the air. After one rain after another, the soil in the mountains absorbed enough water, and the streams began to splash down, rippling a little bit of water.

The bloody battle between the Rila people and the Biang people in the Sun Fortress finally came to an end. The two kingdoms each invested the most troops in the war. For five days and five nights, the most brutal battle between the two sides was at the place where the soldiers fought. It is said that the piles of corpses were more than three meters high. In the end, it was the Rila people who took control of the Sun Fortress.

When the morning light of the sixth day shone from the distant horizon, the Biang army had completely disappeared. In addition to leaving corpses all over the mountains and fields, black smoke was still billowing up into the sky. It was almost impossible to tell that they were counting. An hour ago, this was a battlefield where hundreds of thousands of troops were fighting to the death. There was a lifeless atmosphere. Only the broken military flag of the Rila people on the incomplete city head of the Sun Fortress fluttered in the morning light.

The Rilla army, which had won a great victory at the Sun Fortress, began to march towards the hinterland of the Kingdom of Biang. At the Sancha River crossing in the deadwood forest of the Kingdom of Biang, which was close to the Fortress of the Sun, the Rilla army caught up with the remnants of a Biang force that was evacuating. Army, more than three thousand generals The Biang soldiers drove into the rushing river, and then used some transport carriages to push into the break of the river. Taking advantage of the blocked water flow, the Rila people crossed the river, and then in units of 500 people per team, they advanced towards the river in a hierarchical manner. forward extension, Continuously feeding back the previous situation, the severely damaged Bion army was escaping like a swarm of swarms. This situation made King Owitt of Rila feel a little surprised. He did not expect that he had fought a bloody battle with him in the Sun Fortress a few days ago. Bion's army collapsed so quickly. For Rilla's army, which was originally preparing for a battle, it was like preparing to break the barrier in front of it with a fierce blow, but found that what was in front of it was not a barrier at all, but a touch. Instant tissue paper

"Discover the traces of the Eleventh Army of the Kingdom of Biang"

"Lord Subile has caught up with the Eighteenth Army of Biang." Ruila's army advanced all the way, with great momentum. Because of the continuous heavy rains in the past few days, the river water surged, and many of the retreating Biang troops were blocked. After reaching the river position, the Biang army had to retreat across the board. The morale and morale of the army had been completely exhausted in the Fortress of the Sun. Apart from the regular army that could still be maintained, the other civilian armies drawn from surrounding provinces had long since dispersed.

Now the Biang people are thinking about how to go back. No one expected that the Rila people would come up from behind fiercely. Seeing the Rila army coming like a tide, the Bion soldiers blocking the river immediately collapsed. The troops were crushed like a line, and the fierce spears pierced the bloody flowers. The ground opened up in the sky, and the Bion army collapsed. The combat effectiveness of these civilian armies was mediocre. The main enemies they fought were bandits and thieves in the area. They were forcibly dragged up to the Sun Fortress to be used as cannon fodder. After an impact, almost It swept through like a storm, leaving only corpses on the ground.

"The Rila people are catching up."

"Run for your lives!" The Bion soldiers shouted in horror. They were torn to pieces by the impact. They were as panicked as a group of mice. They crawled through the grass and ran into the woods in embarrassment.

"Carry all the supplies back." A Rilla general stopped his horse and looked forward with bright eyes, the queue rolling towards the river. The sharp edges of the entire row of spears shone coldly in the rain. He originally thought it was better than The Biang army suffered heavy losses, but its basic combat effectiveness was still there. Unexpectedly, it would be so loose that it allowed them to march straight in. It was like a deserted land, breaking up the Biang troops one after another and encountering strong resistance. There are only a handful of times, and the scale is not large. After interrogating a captured General Biang, Rilla learned that King Lucize III of Biang had secretly escaped last night, and the regular army was in They all began to evacuate in an orderly manner last night. Only the civilian soldiers who were used as cannon fodder discovered that the regular army camps were empty in the early morning, and the Imperial Guards had long since disappeared. Under such circumstances, who would have the intention to stay? Come down and fight

"How many people are there in the Biang regular army?" King Owitt of Rila was riding on a war horse.

"Ignore these miscellaneous troops, pursue King Bion's army and capture Lucize III alive."

Realizing that he had been deceived, King Owitt of Rila had a gloomy face. He did not expect that King Lucize III of Biang would be so cruel. In order to escape pursuit, he would not hesitate to place tens of thousands of miscellaneous troops behind him, making it clear that he was escaping for himself. After stalling for time, the Rila army approached thirty miles below the city of Mekgar, the capital of the province, before discovering the whereabouts of the Biang royal guards.

"Call the troops to gather at Merkgar City immediately." After receiving the news, King Owit of Rila looked overjoyed and immediately issued an order to encircle Merktel.

"Your Majesty, I think it's better to stop here." Sulag's voice suddenly sounded. "The five-day and five-night battle destroyed more than half of the main force of the Biang Kingdom, but it also cost us more than 50,000 people. More than 60,000 people were seriously injured. In other words, in the area of ​​Sun Fortress, which is only seven or eight miles wide, the two sides were not injured, but only died in battle. As many as one hundred thousand, it is not an exaggeration to say that every inch of the land here is dyed red with human blood. The capture of the Sun Fortress is equivalent to opening the door to the Kingdom of Biang. The main force of the Biang army suffered heavy losses. At this time, the army continued Moving forward, it is not impossible to swallow one or two provinces of Biang, but His Majesty should consider how to better defend these occupied areas."

"Asshole, isn't it wrong to seize the enemy's land?"

"Are you sympathizing with the Biangs?"

Before His Majesty Owitt could say anything, the generals of Rilla were already scolding each other, with angry expressions on their faces. What was the purpose of everyone fighting desperately to take down the Sun Fortress? Isn't it just to take down the Bion portal and then bully Biang in any way they wanted? Everyone can do it. Now that the Sun Fortress is in hand, the situation of the Kingdom of Ruila The situation has never been so favorable. The Biang people had already injured the main force, so they hurriedly evacuated before dawn. They were afraid that they would be counterattacked by the Rilla army after dawn. At this time, if they did not take advantage of the situation, it would be really dangerous. I'm so sorry that so many people fought in the Sun Fortress for five days and five nights.

"We have already killed enough people. Even if we seize a province from the Biang people, what can we do? This is within the Sun Fortress. Facing the counterattack of the nineteen provinces of Biang, unless we take Rilla All the troops of the kingdom have to be filled in, otherwise there will be no way to defend it." Risurag showed no sign of weakness. He glanced at the generals whose eyes were as red as rabbits and took a deep breath. "No. Forgot, the purpose of this battle is to seize the Sun Fortress and make the Biang people no longer able to compete with us for the Sun Fortress within twenty years. Now that we have done it, if we continue to fight, for For the Biang people, it is not a battle, but a war of genocide. What do you think is the possibility of wiping out the Biang people in one fell swoop based on the current situation in Rila?

"Destroying Bion is still difficult." The generals collectively gave up.

"Yes, the big homeland should still be visible. Even if the Kingdom of Biang loses the Sun Fortress and the main force suffers heavy losses, there are still at least 100,000 domestic troops, and there are many cities. Even if I, Rila, invest all my military power, , and it is impossible to destroy the Kingdom of Biang in a short time." Surag said in a solemn tone, "Don't let everyone get carried away by the favorable situation in front of you and forget that north of the Fortress of the Sun is the hinterland of the Kingdom of Biang. Take advantage of the main force of the Kingdom of Biang to be severely damaged and seize one or two provinces by force. , it’s not impossible, but then we have to face the Kingdom of Biang A huge counterattack from nineteen provinces cannot be defended at all. On the contrary, the Kingdom of Rila will be plunged into the quagmire of endless war. According to the current national strength of the Kingdom of Rila, a short-term outbreak is still possible. Okay, once you are really dragged into a long war, you will eventually be brought down. , and from a strategic point of view, winning the Sun Fortress is the best victory. The Kingdom of Rila can finally develop the land of Three Rivers without interference, and finally forces a way out of the current deadlock. It’s necessary to waste the country’s power for one or two provinces!”

"Pass my order, all armies are not allowed to move forward any further. Anyone who disobeys the order will not be able to make great achievements and will be treated as a violation of the king's order." His Majesty Owitt finally spoke up. He snorted coldly. Others The generals opened their mouths, but no one spoke. They had obviously taken the absolute initiative, and it was really unacceptable to stop like this. But what this disgusting Sulag said was right, and he continued to fight. If you go on, you will really fight to the death. In the end, you will only benefit others in vain.

"Your Majesty, I just received the news that the empire has just announced at Castle Rock that it will send special envoys to mediate between the Kingdom of Rila and the Kingdom of Biang." At this moment, a royal attendant officer came from behind with a report in his hand. come over

"Send a special envoy? Isn't the Imperial Minister of Military Affairs Hu Keqili a special envoy? Why is he sending a special envoy again?" King Owitt of Rila glanced at the report, with a look of astonishment on his face. The other generals were in an uproar. This time The reason why everyone was able to send troops to the Sun Fortress and fight fiercely for five days and five nights in one go was because Everyone believes that they must seize the Sun Fortress before the empire intervenes to mediate, and turn the occupation of the Sun Fortress into an ironclad fact. In this way, even if the empire wants to favor Bion, it cannot shake the established situation. But now, the empire has stated that it will In addition, the meaning of excluding special envoys from intervening in mediation is very complicated!

"Won't the empire ask us to withdraw from Fortress of the Sun?" In the silence, someone whispered hesitantly.

"Asshole, if the empire really demands this, I, Slia, will die in the Sun Fortress even if I die!" Someone said angrily.

"If the Fortress of the Sun is to be stained with blood, count me Romandos."

The emperor of the empire acquiesced in handing over the Sun Fortress to the Kingdom of Rilla, could he still regret it? The Imperial Minister of Military Affairs, Hu Keqili, went south and did not show up after landing at Fort Rock. Isn't this just to show the attitude of the empire? The entire Obarro also believed that Hu Keqili was the special envoy for this mediation. How did it end? , and another special envoy appeared. What does the empire mean?

His Majesty Owitt was not sure, and his heart was even more confused. He held the report in his hand and snorted with a heavy nose, "Immediately send someone to Castle Rock. You must find a way to find out who the imperial envoy is." !”
