Realm of Power

The cool night breeze carried the scent of wild flowers. As he inhaled the curls mixed with water vapor into Crolissatt's nose, a towering black shadow was vaguely visible in the black curtain in the distance. The sparkling Satsuma Ri River was surrounded like a silver belt, and the trees were floating in the night wind. Singing songs, April glowworms danced among the trees, and the sound of rushing water filled my ears. Everything seemed so peaceful and calm

A trivial sound of trampling leaves came from behind, "Reporting to your lord, the Longbow Flag Regiment has arrived at the predetermined position!" A guard came out of the bushes nearby and whispered to Crolisate who was squatting in the grass. According to reports, although she is already the commander of the legion, Crolisate, who was born as a hunter, still likes to hide in the bushes as before, using her pair of night eyes that can penetrate hundreds of meters to carefully examine her opponents in the darkness.

The Western Line of Kyoto is not the Southern Line where the main force is concentrated. However, the terrain is more dangerous than in the south. I only have 20,000 mountain troops who are not good at attacking. What I have to face is the thousands of elites of the Kyoto Army and the tough natural defense line.

The surging Satsuma Rijiang River is Kyoto's first natural barrier. After passing through the vast southern plains, it hits the hilly area in the west. The western terrain causes the Satsuma Rijiang River to quickly turn south,

This makes the Satsuma Rijiang River form a narrow corner in the west. The entire west side looks very big, but there are only a few places suitable for crossing the river. Although the nearby Feterai Town has the flattest terrain and is most suitable for large army operations, the Kyoto Army The main force of the army is also deployed there. Hundreds of heavy trebuchets form a dense network. Any ship that attempts to cross the river will be immediately smashed into pieces. For the mountain army that lacks construction craftsmen, it is impossible to storm across the river. task

The military order from the Legion Headquarters requesting the battle in Kyoto three days later has been sent to Crolisate. This made Crolissart a little embarrassed. After examining several points, Crolissart's eyes focused on the most prominent location. That was the center of the corner of Satsuma Rijie, Danzig Castle, which is the entire Kyoto. The most important fortress on the west side and an important fulcrum on the western front of Kyoto.

The Kyoto Army deployed a flag regiment in Danzig, which echoed the main force guarding the Fetele Riverbank downstream, and Crorisart took a fancy to this place. It's because this is the corner of Satsuma Rie. It is the narrowest section of the river. The wide river surface of more than 50 meters begins to shrink to more than 20 meters here. Although the water flow becomes fast and dangerous here, it is the most suitable for mountain troops to cross the river.

Croissant looked at the slightly white sky. Five o'clock was the most tiring time. The garrison on Danzig Castle was significantly reduced. Some soldiers even dozed off leaning on the battlements. No one would think that the Samor army would come from Danzig Castle. Not only was it difficult to fortify The fortress cannot be attacked, and the rushing Er River is not suitable for forced crossing operations. Even the largest merchant ship will be washed away immediately.

Crolisate closed her eyes tightly, and her keen ears heard the rushing sound of the river and the whistling wind. Crolisate was waiting. The wind on the river began to slow down. Crolisate, who was born as a hunter, knew , the period of time before the sun appears each day. All trends will slow down,

"Do it!" Crolisate's eyes lit up. He quickly emerged from the bushes, raised the heavy hunting bow in his hand, and shot an arrow with a whistle in the sky. "Kill!" Countless longbowmen suddenly rushed out from the dense woods opposite Danzig Castle. The body quickly squatted down, tightened the long bow string and made bursts of crackling sounds like raindrops, "shooting" the dense arrowheads like a sudden burst of locust swarms. It drew an arc in the air and landed on the Danzig defenders who had not yet reacted.

"Ah." There were only about a thousand people on duty in the castle. They were immediately penetrated by the powerful thorn-wa longbow. The unsuspecting Kyoto army immediately fell in large numbers. "Woo!" "The chief of the castle's alarm The number is rising!

"Quick! Release the hook line." The Samor longbow captains shouted, and the Sanwa archers' long arrows were quickly replaced by thick arrow ropes. This action had been practiced hundreds of times, and the longbowmen completed the conversion within a few seconds.

"Height ten:, shoot!" As the captains shouted loudly, countless special arrowheads tied with ropes were shot out from the powerful thorn-tile longbow, and the river surface of more than 20 meters jumped across, hanging firmly. Lived at the battlement entrance opposite

"Longbow cover, the Hunter Flag Regiment crosses the river!" Crolisate frowned and gave orders to the soldiers behind her in a serious voice. Unexpectedly, the defenders on the opposite side were so alert. They immediately sounded the alarm as soon as they launched the attack. , here is only a few miles away from Feterai River where 10,000 elite troops are stationed. Reinforcements will arrive in half an hour at most.

Countless Samor soldiers carried huge shields on their backs and held sharp hunting knives in their mouths. They walked out of the woods, hanging upside down by their hands and feet like monkeys, and nimbly kept moving along the ropes nailed to the battlements. Climbing forward, they are all mountain hunters from the southern barbarians. Climbing and shooting are their special skills. The steep and difficult-to-reach mountains and cliffs are the best stage for them to show themselves. I saw them using their hands and feet together, as if they were sliding on a rope. The rope was trembling in their fingers. Below them was the rushing Satsuma Rijiang River. If they were not careful, they would fall down.

"Hurry! They are going to climb up directly." A Kyoto army commander on the opposite side shouted that he was the person closest to the battlements along the river. He had just escaped the first wave of arrows with the body of his companion, and the golden morning light shone from the clouds. The sight before him made him gasp. I saw hundreds of ropes connecting from the high hill on the other side of the river to the battlements, all of which were covered with people. The dense crowd of people made his scalp numb

"Hold them off." The Kyoto Army obviously discovered the Samor Army's intention, and countless soldiers rushed forward with the long bows of the opposite side. The sharp and powerful longbow shots caused them to fall one by one. Within a hundred meters, even the shields could not block the powerful longbow volleys of the Sanwa tribe. For a while, the Kyoto army in Danzig was staggered by the shots and could not form enough formation at all. Thick defense

"Archers! Hurry! Hurry!" the Kyoto defenders shouted, and the queue moved out of the way. Teams of archers drove up to the top of the castle. However, the defenders of Zeburg mainly focused on defense, and archers accounted for the majority. , for a moment arrows were like rain, crossing the sky on both sides with a shrill sound.

"Puff" the arrow cluster shot at the longbowman's chest, splashing up snowflakes. The soldiers crawling forward quickly on the rope also fell off the rope. "Puff" a hunter made a deft move. Turn over and jump from the rope to the battlement with your feet on the ground."
