Warhammer Throne

Casvann led his army to the Doom Mountain. This mountain was called the "Doom Mountain" on the Breton side, and the empires across the mountain preferred to call it the "Heart of Ice and Snow."

The Duke of Pallaon did not stay too much when passing by Ubeselik. He did not try to attack the town. Instead, he took the opportunity to blackmail the Earl of Graf a sum of rations and army payments in exchange for a promise not to attack the city.

Count Graf obediently followed suit. Ubeselik has a standing army of three hundred. Count Graf also has his own private guard. These troops naturally dare not resist the army of more than 15,000 people in Casvan. And Casvan didn't plan to stay here either. After getting enough rations and gold coins, the army passed by Ubeselik and went straight to Hemgart.

Although war has been declared, human beings still abide by the bottom line in the civil war, do not kill captives, do not kill civilians, nobles will be placed under house arrest and wait for ransom.

An army of more than 15,000 people was stationed on the mountainside of Doom Mountain. Casvan asked the knights and soldiers to take a rest and prepare for the next war.

Emperor Karl-Franz was stationed behind the ford in front of Hemgart with an army of about 20,000 people. The eight thousand Iveys led by the Elector of Umberto were located on the flank of the Emperor’s army. The momentum of the horns.

There are still more than four thousand emperor teams remaining in Hemgart. The emperor does not intend to defend the city, because this is a civil war of mankind.

The two armies began to confront each other while looking for a fighter.

In the early morning of February, Ryan and François stood on the city wall of Hemgart, looking at the confronting army. The champion of the Lake Fairy’s selection whispered: “The Imperial Army is well-trained and consists of a variety of troops. The composition is high and morale is high, but the number of knights is small. Even if the guards of the Rick Guards and Elector Umberto are included, the total number of knights is only about 1,200."

"The size of Casfan's army is much smaller than that of the Imperial Army, but there are more than two thousand two hundred knights. The outcome of this war is hard to say. The empire has a certain advantage in military strength. There is an advantage in the number of knights, but sometimes the victory or defeat is in an instant."

Francois nodded, and Duke Winford thought for a while, and said: "Casvain has been fighting for a long time. He knows that if the emperor is strong, then the knights will not be able to win. He needs to wait for the opportunity and wait for one. The opportunity for the Imperial team to expose their weaknesses."

"Exposure the weakness..." Gerrod looked at the opposing army and frowned: "Casvain's army is fighting in the Empire, and it is an expedition. He has no capital to drag him down with Emperor Franz, and Emperor Franz only needs Tighten the camp and Casvan will have no chance of winning."

"No, you are wrong, Gerrold." Ryan shook his head: "His Majesty Karl-Franz understands that this war is not as simple as it seems. Gerrold, you only count the military, but Karl He understands more. Not only is he a good general, he is also a good politician."

"Yes, the emperor may be able to rely on his defense to win victory, but this is not what he wants." Francois nodded and smiled. He was satisfied with Ryan's political wisdom: "So many of us are watching here."

Some enlightenment flashed across Gerrod's stern face: "That's how it is."

War has never been simple.

…………

In the former imperial army camp before Hemgart, the emperor and his general Kurt Heilberg, the flag officer Ludwig Schwarzheimer, the Elector of Tuscany Umberto, etc. People are looking at the battlefield sand table.

The great alchemist Baiershaze-Gellt was also there, but the great alchemist who had many ideas in the past was not interested in this human civil war and stood by without saying a word.

The front of Hemgart city is filled with red flags symbolizing Rick's army and Ivey's yellow flags, crossing the shallows and a small plain, and a blue flag is planted on the mountainside of Doom Mountain.

"Casvann stationed his army on the mountainside, where there is plenty of water and steep enough terrain." Heilberg pointed his finger at the blue flag: "If we attack his camp directly, Then a large group of knights will directly charge our army from the hillside, and it is difficult for us to resist this level of charge."

Several generals nodded, how powerful is the charge of the Knights in Brittany. The empires knew very well that when these knights charged with the name of the goddess, any enemy that blocked them would be crushed. Fragments.

"Our number of knights is not as large as that of Casvan, and our active attack will definitely be defeated." Karl Franz was dressed in uniform, and he shook his head: "Our artillery can cover our charge, but Casvan's There are about fifty Pegasus knights in the army, and they will definitely look for opportunities to attack our artillery positions."

"We will suffer great casualties from a frontal beating. This is a civil war between humans. We cannot fight like this. The lessons of the Three Emperors’ blood are in sight, but we can’t stand still, just like Victor said, provocative The enemy of the imperial authority must be defeated, and completely defeated." Karl-Franz said calmly. The young emperor knew very clearly that he and his army could not hold fast. In full view, he must fight a battle. Beautiful victory.

"In fact, there is the easiest way to win, Karl Franz, that is the championship showdown. If you come to the army and send an invitation to Kasvann for the championship showdown, then he can't refuse it." Weng Elector Beto said suddenly, he looked at the rune tooth on the emperor's waist and the warhammer Gail Malaz in his hand.

"No, Kasvann has a good reason not to agree." Karl-Franz shook his head, and the emperor smiled bitterly: "The knight on the opposite side of the mountain will no longer believe us."

He was talking about an incident that happened on the "Road to Kurona" not long ago. It came from the border friction between the Empire and Brittany, and the imperial generals Helberg and Brittany’s confronting each other in the swamp. Marshal Roland felt pained by repeated seesaws and small-scale conflicts, so Bretania proposed to decide the winner through a championship showdown.

Heilberg agreed.

Heilberg is the strongest swordsman among the Rick guards. There is no doubt that he has amazing strength and superb swordsmanship, but Breton has sent a holy grail knight, Baron de Albeken. .

Needless to say, the strength of the Knights of the Holy Grail is of course needless to say. Heilberg found that he could not defeat the powerful Knights of the Holy Grail even after exhausting all his life's learning. Warrior, if not compelled, he would not fight Earl Hale.

Heilberg agreed with the baron's point of view, and he withdrew some distance backward in the doubtful gaze of the Holy Grail knight.

Then he ordered the cannon to fire.

In the Imperial formation, a dozen cannons that had been arranged long ago fired at Baron de Albeken at the same time. The Knights of the Holy Grail were hit by cannons in succession. Taking advantage of De Albeken was injured, Heilberg Take the opportunity to behead the Knight of the Holy Grail and declare that he is the winner.

Before his death, Baron de Albeken was still cursing Heilberg's despicable and unbelief, but Heilberg turned a deaf ear. The imperial general only cared about victory and duties, and glory had nothing to do with him.

This incident triggered a very fierce diplomatic conflict. After Karl-Franz learned of the results of this incident, he quickly sent someone to make peace with Richard, redrawing the boundary line, and immediately transferred Heilberg back to the cloth. Lenswick gave a severe reprimand.

The emperor meant that when you deal with chaos, northern barbarians, vampires, greenskins and other creatures, you can use this kind of insidious trick, but it is a bit too much to use such tricks against human compatriots.

Heilberg doesn't care, he just wants to win.

Whether this imperial general is correct or not is divided, but it is certain that the Bretons will never accept the invitation to the championship easily.

Moreover, even if the Bretons accepted the invitation to the championship showdown, the emperor was not sure of winning.

Karl Franz is about thirty-four years old this year. He is a legendary mid-level. The emperor himself knows that his strength is very strong, mainly because of his good equipment, whether it is the "Silver Seal" or the "Rune Fang". It is "Gail Malaz", these are all artifacts, one of the strongest enchanting artifacts in the old world.

Even so, facing the holy grail knights, the emperor can hardly be sure of victory. The holy grail knights are much better than normal people in the same tier.

"So, our plan is that I will lead about a thousand knights, roundabout from the side, and attack Casvann's flank through the mountain trail behind Hemgart." The emperor's fingers moved on the war sand table. He bypassed a nearby hill, and then directly clicked to Casvan's flank: "We will spend about two hours on the march to complete the circumnavigation."

"At the same time, the Elector of Umberto led all the infantry and a small number of knights across the ford and waited for the fighters. When I led the knights to complete the roundabout, our two armies attacked together. No armies can support both sides for a long time. As long as the combatants plan properly, Casvan and his army will be defeated!"

"Prepare for action. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the knights to set out, and I will also ask Your Excellency Umberto to lead the army across the ford at the same time, waiting for the news of my attack, and then immediately join forces with Casvann's army!"

"Yes!"

At the same time, halfway up the Doom Mountain.

The army of the Duchy of Pallaon is resting. After a day’s rest, Casvan's army gradually recovered from the exhaustion of crossing the mountains, and morale has rebounded. The large group of ranger knights are gearing up, waiting to compete with the imperial knights. .

The knights of the kingdom are different. The main knights of these armies are mostly silent. They know the strength of the empire in their hearts and know how to face a bitter battle.

Casvan is also discussing the military situation with his lieutenant, Earl Canel.

"The empire's army is far superior to ours in terms of quantity and quality of infantry. If we launch an attack rashly, then the empire's artillery and elite phalanx will cause the knights to suffer heavy losses." Kasfann looked at the map, The duke who has gone through hundreds of battles is also troubled by the battle: "We have more knights than the emperor team, and we need to find fighters."

"The question now is, will Emperor Karl-Franz defend Hemgart forever?" Count Canel raised his concerns.

"No." Casvan frowned, but he came to the same point of view, that is, the emperor team will take the initiative to attack.

So... how will Karl Franz take the initiative to attack?

Casvann looked at the map. His army was stationed on the mountainside. The Imperial Army was stationed in the open space in front of the city of Hemgart. The forward of the open space was a shallow shoal, then a narrow plain, and then close Where Casvann’s camp is located.

The Duke knew that he had to take advantage of his number of knights and powerful impact to have a chance to completely defeat the empire army.

"Send another scout!"

"Yes!"

…………

In the early hours of February 2nd, the sky was completely dark.

The emperor led the Rick guard and several knights of the Imperial Knights to set off. They would bypass a hill and unexpectedly attack his camp from the back of Casvan.

The Elector of Umberto led all the Imperial infantry, Imperial Artillery and a small number of Imperial Knights to cross the ford.

In the dark, the lighting completely relied on moonlight, and the emperor army did not dare to light the torches. The army of more than 20,000 men crossed the shallows from the front. Because of the cold weather and the dry season, the process of crossing the shallows was relatively relative. smoothly.

"I hope everything goes well." The Elector of Umberto wore a finely crafted mithril plate armor made by a dwarf. He rode on a half-blood elf war horse, which wore a magnificent armor, and the Elector’s own burqa. With beautiful flowers and colorful helmet feathers, he crossed the shoal under the protection of the candidate guards, and the river of the shoal can only flood the horseshoe.

"My electorate, why did your majesty let you control the army? I think it would be better for you to lead the knights in a roundabout way?" The guard of the elector of Tuscany is also the golden fleece led by Ivey. The knights of the Knights said so.

The Knights of the Golden Fleece are Ivey’s most elite troops. Most of them are personally selected by the electors themselves. They have fought with Greenskins at the Black Fire Pass all year round and have very rich combat experience.

"Because Karl Franz needs him, he needs enough prestige." Elector Umberto said with a smile: "This new emperor is a talented man, but his current prestige is not enough to support his ambition and Faith, so he has to continue to lead the army to win, which can ensure that his policy can continue. Compared with those nobles, he is more willing to trust his army, and there are many nobles who hate him."

In the early hours of the morning, the moon was sparse, the gray mountains and the doomsday mountains and the area up to Hemgart were thickly foggy, and most of the empire's army had crossed the shallows.

Elector Umberto felt something was wrong.

It's too quiet.

"My advisor, where is Otto?" the elector yelled behind him.

"I'm here!" Wearing a white robe, a legendary wizard of the Light family rushed up from behind with a staff in hand.

"Disperse this thick fog! Immediately!"

"Yes!"

The spell was moved, and the thick fog that filled the valley and plain was dispersed.

The powerful light of exile is illuminating the plain. It not only disperses the dense fog, but also illuminates the hidden army hidden in the dense fog.

Flags are like forests, guns are like rain, more than 2,000 Breton knights are fully armed, and tens of thousands of Bretonian infantry regiments have all stood in array, and their troops have been continuous from the mountainside. Not far from the Emperor ** team.

"Okay, it's okay." The heavily armed Casvan riding a pure blood elf pony horse, he said to a prophet of the lake **** next to him, the beautiful prophet of the lake **** nodded and stopped his spellcasting .

As a result, the dense fog dissipated completely on the plain.

Casfan has led all his main forces down the mountain.

"Crap!" The elector of Umberto knew that the plan had failed, and Casvan took the initiative to attack them.

He immediately signaled the Golden Fleece Knights to blow the horn, and the Elector pulled out the Elector’s holy sword "Mother of Destruction": "Emperor Team! Focus on me!"

The emperor team lined up hastily, and then quickly gathered towards the emperor himself.

"Go forward! Breton knights!" Casvan raised his lance, and more than two thousand knights also raised his lance in response: "Charge! For the lady!!!"

"For the lady!!!"

Thousand horses galloped, mud splashed, and the raging waves of the Bretonian knights swept across the field.
