The King

  Chapter 197 Golden Bimon Royeia

  Receiving the message from the explorer, Hudson immediately summoned the officers to come over for a meeting. Although he didn't know who the Beamon cavalry besieged and killed, it didn't stop him from joining in the fun.

   Originally, I thought about leading the cavalry to help the venue first, but after some hesitation, I decided to forget it. It's not worth taking risks for a group of strangers who are not close relatives.

  Anyway, the battle is still in a stalemate, and there will be no winner for a while. The most important thing is - the temptation to besiege and kill a Beamon cavalry regiment is too great.

   Just leading the cavalry regiment over, at most it will help to clear the siege. It is simply impossible to keep the enemy behind.

   The war has been going on for so long, and Hudson has never heard of it. The Beamon Cavalry Regiment was wiped out.

  In the case of equal strength, his cavalry regiment is definitely not the opponent of Beamon cavalry in the field alone.

  …

   "Tan Ma received news that a Beamon cavalry appeared in front of them, surrounding and killing a group of unidentified people.

   Judging from the location in the field, this human team is likely to be the survivors who escaped from the Bethel Fortress.

   Everyone heard the explosion just now. It was the nobles of Bethel who used special means to perish together with the orcs.

  They defended the dignity of my human race with their lives. Now that their descendants are being hunted down by orcs, and we happen to run into them, how can they just sit idly by!

  Even if my judgment is wrong, those who were hunted down are also members of my human race. It was always right to save him from the orcs.

  According to the news from Tan Ma, the fighting between the two sides was very fierce, and the number of Beamon cavalry still alive is about eight or nine hundred.

  A 1,000-man Beamon cavalry regiment, if we want to wipe them out on the battlefield, our cavalry regiment alone is not enough.

  So I decided to choose 3,000 elites and go out with the cavalry regiment.

   Baron Kettley, Baron Calvo, Baron Reno, Knight Sean, Knight Ball, Knight Feed...The first elite guards, follow me.

   Baron Berio, Guarente Knight, Nelson Knight, Adrian Knight... You are responsible for staying behind.

  Viscount Raquel, if there are nobles willing to participate in the new 23rd Legion, they can also lead elites to participate.

  Soldiers are precious and fast, and those who are named will go to count the soldiers and horses immediately. "

   Hudson said without a doubt.

  The aristocrats selected by him are all private troops with strong combat effectiveness, and they all have their own cavalry troops.

   Half of the cavalry regiment in the Wrightshire Army was contributed by these people. This kind of opportunity to gain military exploits cannot be justified without them.

  Three thousand elites are just an imaginary number, mainly based on the number of elites in the hands of these guys, plus the elite veterans of the Mountain Territory, the final approximate data given.

  More or fewer people will not have much impact on the final result. The only regret is that the number of war horses is not enough, so we can only use poor horses to make up.

  Thanks to the selfless dedication of the bureaucrats in the logistics department, otherwise it would not be easy to get together 3,000 poor horses.

   Deep down, Hudson has decided to expand the cavalry. This battle is the best opportunity, as long as the Beamon Cavalry Regiment is encircled and wiped out, more battle losses will be reported later.

   This kind of thing is simply impossible to get to the bottom of it. With outstanding military exploits, even if he knows that there is a problem with the battle damage. The Moxi people still want him to continue working hard, so they will pretend to be confused and add it.

   What's more, he hasn't eaten alone yet, and the second generation of the newly created 23rd Legion also left a portion. As long as you have the courage to participate, you will gain something.

  The newly formed 23rd Army Corps collapsed, because the overall quality of the soldiers was not good enough, and the guards who followed the second generation were still very capable of fighting.

  …

  The loud noise in Bethel city not only alarmed the nearby orc army, but also alarmed the nearby human defenders.

  The information from the high-altitude reconnaissance of the Griffin Cavalry gathered in the hands of the commander-in-chief of the front line, Marshal Hodge, as quickly as possible.

   When he first received the battle report, he suspected that someone would play a joke on him again.

  The Liboron family is not a small nobleman. Even if it has been going downhill in recent decades, it is still a veteran nobleman who can be ranked in the top five in the Principality.

  More than a dozen generations, hundreds of years of long-term operation. The Bethel Fortress can be regarded as impenetrable, and in terms of defense capabilities, it can be ranked first in the entire Principality of Moxi.

   Marshal Hodge never considered the possibility of falling to such a huge fortress city. At the very least, it shouldn't have fallen into the hands of the orc army at the beginning of the war.

  According to the experience of the Alpha Kingdom, as long as the old nobles don't die, the orcs want to break into their lair, and it is impossible to complete it without a few months of strong attack.

   It’s useless not to believe it. The nearby defenders all gave similar battle reports, and personally sent griffin cavalry to investigate, which also proved the fact that the Bethel Fortress was reduced to ruins.

  As for how the orcs breached the Bethel Fortress, no one can tell for a while, but some people speculate that it is related to the shocking explosion, and suspect that it is the work of the orcs.

  Fortunately, the Griffin Cavalry's reconnaissance was strong and they discovered that the orc army had suffered heavy losses, which made Marshal Hodge heave a sigh of relief.

   It’s fine if it’s not the hand of the orcs. If the orcs have the strength to easily destroy a giant fortress, the subsequent battles will be impossible to fight.

  In fact, Marshal Hodge doesn't even know how to fight the next battle.

  Bethel Fortress fell, and a huge vacuum gap appeared in the originally solid line of defense.

  From then on, the orc army can drive straight in from here.

  Although the defenders on both sides can also attack their logistics transportation lines from the fortress.

  The problem is that the orc army's dependence on logistics is not as serious as that of the human army. In addition to a small amount of strategic materials, they can use local materials for consumption such as eating, drinking, and scavenging.

   "Halley, immediately send a message to the capital to inform the Bethel fortress of the fall.

  Tell His Majesty the King that our mobile forces are insufficient and we are unable to close the gap in the defense line in time.

  The construction of the follow-up line of defense has not yet been completed, and it is unable to stop the orc army from driving straight in. It is suggested to His Majesty the king to expand the scope of fortifying the wall and clearing the wilderness.

   It is best to include all the northern provinces of the principality, so as not to leave an opportunity for the orcs to take advantage of. "

   While speaking, Marshal Hodge's expression gradually dimmed. "Strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness" is easy to say, but it is not an ordinary difficulty to implement it.

  The most realistic question, after the wall was cleared and the production was completely destroyed, what do you guys eat?

  Different from the nobles on the front line, they had the experience of being robbed by orc tribes, and they had enough sense of crisis.

  Having stored food in the castle early, coupled with the principality's subsidy, quickly completed the clearing of the walls.

   Now that the area of ​​"Strengthening the Wall and Clearing the Field" is expanded, the situation has changed. First of all, the principality's subsidies are difficult to implement.

  Even if the finances can be supported, there is no way to immediately produce enough food.

   Even if there is food in the rear, it cannot be guaranteed to be delivered to the castles of the nobles before the orc army arrives.

  The aristocrats who are wealthy, have sufficient sense of crisis, and know how to store grain in advance may be able to survive.

  But most of the nobles have never thought about this issue at all, or even if they thought about it in advance, they don't have enough financial resources to complete the reserve.

  In fact, after the war broke out, the nobles in the northern region also had a wave of panic buying of food, but only wealthy nobles were eligible to participate.

  It is almost impossible for the poor to have more than two or three years of grain reserves. After all, as lords, they not only had to support themselves, but also their subjects.

  The autumn harvest has not yet been completed. Once the comprehensive fortification of the walls and the clearing of the fields are implemented, the food production will be cut off. Maybe it will not last until the next year, and some people will run out of food.

   It cannot solve the food shortage caused by the strong walls and clearing the fields. Even if the king makes an order, it is difficult to implement it.

   If you know, you know, Marshal Hodge is still powerless. Who could have predicted in advance that Bethel Fortress, which was least likely to be lost, would be the first to fall?

  Deep in his heart, he could do nothing but scold Earl Langton for being useless and the Leblon family for their vain reputation.

  Even if you want to settle accounts after the fall, you have to be alive. Judging from the news received so far, there is no evidence that Earl Langton has run away.

  As long as they didn't run away and chose to live and die with the territory, no matter how big the mistake was, they could only be forgiven.

   Even in the final accountability, there is a high probability that he, the frontline commander, will be responsible. The charges are all off the shelf—rescue is not good.

   Imprisonment is impossible. As long as the king is not mad, he will not touch the commander-in-chief.

  In any case, Marshal Hodge took over the mess when he was ordered in a crisis.

  After taking office, although he didn't have any outstanding achievements, at least he completed the construction of the new line of defense and blocked the orc army for two months before being torn apart.

  Compared to the previous defenders of the Augustsburg defense line, they are all top students at first glance.

  If you want to change people, you have to have a more powerful commander.

  In the face of the crisis of national subjugation and genocide, all disputes have to be left behind. Even his political opponents would spit twice at most.

   If he really quits, the most anxious ones will be the gang of dignitaries in the capital.

   Everyone is a smart person, very aware of the current situation. If it can run, it is estimated that the transnational immigration movement has already been in full swing.

  It's a pity that the free people can run away, but the nobles can't. Not only can they not run away, even the younger generations can't run away either.

   If you fail to fulfill your noble duties, not only will your ancestral foundation be lost, but you will also have to face the pursuit of the entire Human Race Alliance.

   If you want to escape for your life, it's not like you don't have a chance. But you have to wait until the situation completely collapses before you can make a strategic shift with the king.

  Theoretically speaking, this kind of strategic shift usually involves going to a province that is easy to defend, and continuing to fight the orcs.

   There can be exile, but in the face of the orc invasion, no king has set a precedent for this.

   After all, it was the Guangming Empire that ruled the north three hundred years ago. Even if it didn't suppress the Orc Empire, it wouldn't be a disadvantage.

   Next, the Alpha Kingdom is another **** nail shop. There are many kings who died in battle, but there are really no kings in exile.

   At most, it was just one relocation of the capital again and again. Even if they go abroad under special circumstances, they will return soon and continue to host the resistance movement.

  With this tenacious attitude, the Alpha Kingdom won the respect of the Terran Alliance. With the support of all countries, they have been resurrected with full blood again and again.

  …

   Pausing for a moment, as if thinking of something, Marshal Hodge hastily ordered:

   "Chief of the guard, immediately send someone to convey the news of the fall of the Bethel Fortress to the legions that are changing defenses as quickly as possible."

   After finishing speaking, cold sweat broke out on Marshal Hodge's forehead. Almost ignored the most critical issue.

  If the changing army is unprepared and encounters the orc army in the wild, the consequences are unimaginable.

   Even if there was a loud noise when the Bethel Fortress fell, the nearby human army should be vigilant.

   Marshal Hodge still chose to remind him again. After all, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds; when there are many armies, there are also commanders of all kinds.

   Don't look at everyone is usually smart, but that's just political. Some people's military literacy is really hard to show.

   Even though these aristocratic officers received military education from an early age, it still cannot change the fact that some of them have terrible military skills.

  Learning military knowledge only allows them to learn mechanically and mechanically, and they cannot use this military knowledge flexibly at all.

  Pure talent is like the difference between a classmate and a scumbag. Those who are good are really good, and those who are not good are really bad.

  …

  Leading the troops to go out in a mighty way, when he was about to approach the target, Hudson waved his hand: "The order goes down, and everyone wraps the horseshoes with cloth.

  Now we will act separately. The cavalry regiment will follow me to copy the enemy's rear.

   Baron Kettley, Baron Calvo, and Baron Reno, you all have experience in commanding cavalry combat, so the three teams will be entrusted to you.

   Members of the newly formed 23rd Legion also attacked from the front together with the cavalry led by Baron Kelette.

  The opportunity is rare. It is rare that a single Beamon cavalry regiment is sent to the door. We must take them all down. "

   I don't know why, but when giving orders, Hudson always feels wrong.

   "Lone Beamon Cavalry Regiment", it seems that when the Beamon Cavalry moves, most of them are in regiments.

  In a frontal field battle, a 1,000-man Bimon cavalry regiment can defeat an ordinary human army of 10,000 people.

   Like the newly formed 23rd Army, the combat effectiveness of the new regiment is not bad, and there is a high probability that it will not be able to stop a charge of the Beamon Cavalry.

   Even if you encounter the main force of the human race, even if you can't win, you can still run. It is rare to think that this kind of chance to miss.

  Even if the horseshoes were wrapped, when the army was about to approach, they were still discovered by the warring parties.

   There is no need to hide, they all appear within sight, no matter how much you hide, you can't hide them.

  Combining the power of the two families, nearly 5,000 troops encircled them on all sides. From a distance, the mountains and plains are full of human cavalry.

   "Reinforcements are coming!"

   Anthony was the first to discover all this, and shouted in surprise.

   Originally at a disadvantage, the guards of the Leiboron family, who were in danger, instantly boosted their morale!

   Regardless of where the reinforcements come from, as long as it is a human army, when facing the orc army, everyone is their own.

   Realizing that the situation is over, the Beamon officer, who had no intention of fighting, immediately threw off his opponent and ordered: "Withdraw!"

   Unfortunately, it was too late. The human cavalry appeared in their sight, and their figures were also exposed in the sight of Hudson and his group.

   After fighting for so long, half of the guards of the Leiboron family fell down. Now that the opportunity for revenge has come, how can they let them go.

   "Hold them, don't let this group of Bimons escape!"

  Anthony shouted.

   It is true that two legs cannot catch up with four legs, but there is still a kind of power in this world—magic.

   Several magicians holding magic cores to replenish their magic power, no longer caring about their own consumption, took out their abilities at the bottom of the box and released slowing spells on the Beamon cavalry.

   Frankly speaking, this magic is not easy to use. While slowing down the enemy, it often also affects the speed of action of one's own people, making it impossible to achieve precise strikes.

   But there is no waste magic, there are only waste magicians. In special occasions, the slow technique can also play a big role.

  After a short delay, the distance between the two sides has been shortened to only a few hundred meters, and the encirclement is closed.

   "whoosh whoosh..."

  Hudson's signature arrow has already flown towards the Beamon cavalry. In an instant, four unlucky behemoths fell from the giant beast to the ground.

   If you observe carefully, you will find that some cavalry have taken out the magic crossbow.

   Didn't launch, it was because the distance was too far, and it was impossible to aim while the cavalry was running.

  Getting rid of the entanglement, the Beamon cavalry who wanted to forcibly break through became the first victims. Before rushing up, he was directly shot into a sieve.

  Looking at the Beamon cavalry who had been hit by multiple crossbow arrows, Hudson secretly cursed "prodigal son".

  The biggest feature of the magic crossbow is that it is expensive, and even the arrows must be specially made. Although the Principality of Moxi is responsible, it cannot be wasted casually.

  During the war, such scarce resources cannot be bought with money. Even if the Principality of Moxi has a rich family background, it is impossible to have too many reserves in his hands.

  In case the replenishment is not available, these magic equipment will become luxury toys.

  Now is not the time to worry about these things. The hundreds of desperate Beamon cavalry on the field can bring a lot of losses to the coalition forces.

  The Beamon cavalrymen died, and the beasts under them became crazy. In the blink of an eye, Hudson saw several rough horse cavalry being attacked by war beasts.

   Without any hesitation, Hudson hurriedly replenished the arrows for the mad Lordless Beast, and at the same time ordered the cavalry under his command: "Kill together with the Beast, don't leave anyone alive!"

  Frankly speaking, he is also very envious of this Beamon beast. It's a pity that in the continent of Aslante, there has never been a precedent for humans to domesticate Beamon beasts.

  According to the common saying in the mainland, Behemoth Beast and Behemoth live and die together, if the Behemoth knight loses and dies in battle, the Beast will soon follow to die.

   True or false cannot be verified, but Hudson does not think he can do things that countless predecessors could not do.

   Perhaps because of their outstanding performance just now, or because they ordered to expose their commander's identity, a group of Beamon cavalry chose to get rid of the entanglement of their opponents and rushed towards Hudson's position.

   In deep siege, "Capture the King" is undoubtedly the best choice to break the predicament. Hudson expressed his sincere appreciation for the super high military literacy shown by the Mongolian cavalry.

  Especially if these guys choose him as a breakthrough point, it needs to be praised. After all, the iron plate on this side of the court is the hardest.

   Instead of running from the weak point, they came to kick the hardest iron plate. It can only be said that this Beamon cavalry was very lucky.

   Without ordering, the crossbowmen consciously aimed at the charging Beamon cavalry.

   It can be said that every step forward is paved by Beamon Knight with his life. It was getting closer and closer, and the archers, who had long been impatient, also started their own performances.

  After two rounds of cavalry and shooting, the Beamon cavalry, who were supposed to enter close combat, suddenly found something was wrong. It seemed that the speed of their war beast suddenly slowed down.

  Under the enemy's arrow rain, the forward speed is suddenly reduced, and the consequences are absolutely disastrous.

  In the blink of an eye, teams of cavalrymen appeared in front of Hudson with spears in hand.

  The encirclement became smaller and smaller, and the members of the Leboron family who had fought hard with the Beamon cavalry gradually withdrew from the battlefield, leaving the stage to the cavalry.

   Perhaps realizing that the situation is not good, the face of the middle-aged Beamon officer turned livid. Intuition told him that "capturing the king" this time was a wrong decision.

   It is impossible to retreat, and the signal for help has been fired. But this place is still dozens of miles away from the nearest orc army camp.

   Except for the Yingren Air Force who had the opportunity to come to support, even if the rest of the army rushed over, they could only collect their bodies.

   Glancing at the magic crossbow in the enemy's hand, he knew that even if the Eagle Air Force came over, it didn't seem to have much effect.

As if he had made up his mind, the middle-aged Beamon officer's eyes were filled with blood, and his aura suddenly rose. Regardless of the rain of arrows, he lifted the special knight gun in his hand and jumped up to take Hudson's life. Door.

  Closer, closer!

   Just when the knight spear was less than 30 centimeters away from Hudson, it stopped suddenly, and it couldn't stab anymore anyway.

   Before he could react, a huge bear paw appeared in front of him, and then he flew upside down.

   A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the middle-aged Beamon was completely dumbfounded! At the cost of greatly injuring his vitality, the blow he got in exchange ended up like this.

   Originally, he wanted to trade his life for his life, kill Hudson to disrupt the human coalition forces, and win a chance for his subordinates to break through.

  Unfortunately, the final result is that his body is full of arrows, while Hudson on the opposite side is unscathed. Looking at him, it seems that he is looking at a clown.

   Enduring the pain by force, the middle-aged Bimon held up his last strength, and unwillingly said in the common language of the mainland: "The Bimon family, the golden Bimon Royia.

  Human beings, say your name, let me understand! "

   "Sorry, I'm not interested in talking nonsense with dead people."

  While replying, Hudson did not forget to add an arrow to Royeia, so that the golden Beamon went to meet the beast **** with full of doubts.
