Warhammer Throne
Chapter 967: , The eastern light of the empire-Herzig
PS: It’s updated, it’s a little late today, please forgive me.
PS2: This chapter is 5,000 words, with a lot of attention, and I wish you all a happy reading!
The news that Su Liya got here was actually a bit late. When the Knight Queen and the Dark Jing maid were still discussing the battle, the siege of Herzig, the capital of Hawke, was actually over.
At the time when the Battle of the Three Kings took place, the Legion of Sinners led by Prince Siegwald, the Champion of Sinners, was still several days away from Middenstang, so after receiving the news of the defeat of the Beastman and Greenskin Alliance , Prince Siegwald immediately gave up approaching Middenstang and attacked Hawke’s collar instead.
This ancient imperial province once again ushered in severe disasters and terrible tests.
Taking advantage of the empire’s attention to the Oster and Ostermark, the Legion of Sorrows immediately swept the entire Hawker collar. Under the command of Prince Siegwald, the Legion of Sorrows gave full play to their swift winds. With the characteristics of invading and plundering like fire, the marching speed is extremely fast wherever it passes, and the defenders often arrive before they can react. However, the crossing of the horror army is not like the horror army wants to kill enough people, get enough skulls and shed enough blood. , Unlike the Legion of Nurgle, which is full of spreading plague and corruption, the Legion of Sex is swift and windy. It is enough to celebrate in one place, and only after satisfying its desires will it go to the next place.
Of course, Prince Siegwald targeted Herzig, the capital of Hawke, a city known as the Eastern Light of the Empire, and killed thousands of Hawkers and looted several people on the road. In the town, a few days later, the army of **** had already come under the city of Hezig.
Elder Elder Hawke, Edbrand-Ludenhoff, personally led the Knights of the Broken Sword and the Defender of Hawke to fight against the Legion of Sex. The siege lasted about five or six days. The army of the gangsters in the field lacked siege weapons and was unable to attack the city. The two sides fell into a stalemate, and the army of the gangsters was in a high mood, because the coach promised that once Hezig was captured, no matter how terrible desires and strange hobbies were, they could get them. satisfy.
At the same time, Prince Siegwald also managed to "charm" a large number of wild orcs from the Drachwald Forest to break down and join the siege as the "Imperial Army".
Edbrand-Ludenhof gathered almost all the adult men to form an army of more than 20,000 men, and was ready for a long siege. Fortunately, there was a bumper harvest last year, and the food reserves in the city were not bad. adequate.
Edbrand-Ludenhof is a tall, thin, middle-aged man with a horse face. In addition to the elector, he also serves as the Baron Hawke, Marshal Tarabek River Cruiser, The guardian of the temple and the title of Baron Herzig, this elector has always been known throughout the empire for his loyalty and bravery. He is brave in fighting and is particularly good at dealing with huge enemies. His eyes are like eagles, and his body is tall and thin. Surprisingly strong, he is a rare brave general.
There are advantages and disadvantages. As an elector, Edbrand doesn’t like to stay in his palace. He spends all the year in the hunting grounds south of the Hawke’s and indulges in hunting activities. He rarely talks about internal affairs. He is very special I am proud of my large collection of hunting raptors. Because of their huge number, every room in the palace has at least one large bird of raptor roosting. Even during the battle, the emperor kept the falcon on his arm.
Only when the winter hunting activities cannot be carried out, the Elector will return to Herzig, and then live in his Christopher Electoral Castle for the winter. The high-wall fortress will take him and his family and the most filthy and humble. The poor are distinguished.
In February, it was winter. The annoying snow and ice used to be something that Hawke’s leaders hated, but now they cheer for every heavy snowfall, because the low temperature will prevent the Chaos army from attacking the city, and the first side is still cold. The bones were still hard, the trees stretched their bare branches to the gray sky in vain, and the refugees inside the city wrapped themselves tightly. They were trembling and trembling in the dark, listening to the voices outside, chanting constantly. In the name of Charlemagne, Urik, Tal, or Valenna, hoping for salvation.
The streets of Herzig were empty, and the city was under the strictest military control. The elector asked every inhabitant and refugee to stay in the house as much as possible and not to go out. At the same time, he enlisted every male aged 16-50 to the battlefield. Now, the entire small town and neighborhoods of Hawke have become tidy, and teams of soldiers on patrol are walking on the road, alert to everything.
On the wall, the elector is discussing the defense of the city with his general, General Scharnhorst.
Hawke’s Nation is located in the eastern part of the Midden Nation, the southern part of the Central Mountains, the northern Tarabek Nation, and the western part of the Oster Ning. It can be regarded as the central transportation hub of the empire. Because of this, the Hawke’s people will not be hostile. Outsiders, they are optimistic and cheerful, and at the same time wise and flexible like an old hunter, but wars still plague the people here. Every two years, Hawker has at least one large-scale security war. Since nearly a thousand years ago, the legendary Beastmaster Beastman After the ravages of Gatwo, Herzig never returned to his former glory, but the people here always refused to succumb to the darkness. They would rather die than give up their homeland.
"Chaos and Miscellaneous have stormed the North Gate and West Gate these days." The Elector said to General Scharnhorst: "Be more vigilant, there must be other possibilities waiting for us."
"The enemy's offensive is very fierce. Our order is to avoid close combat as much as possible. We have enlisted every blaze, every bow and every sword in the city." General Scharnhorst said: "Chaos Miscellaneous lacks siege weapons and has no advantage in number. Herzig will never fall so easily."
"Where are the reinforcements of the King of Knights and Boris?" General Scharnhorst is a general trusted by the Elder Elderbrand, and the Elector will not hide his worries in front of him: "We can't stand alone and persist. Too long."
As Edbrand said, Herzig could not hold on for too long in front of the army of evildoers, because Hawke was the smallest province among the provinces of the empire, with a small population, and Hawke and the empire The biggest difference between the provinces is that Hawke only has a security patrol and a semi-professional defender, plus the electoral personal guard. This province does not have a strong standing army, and the reason is very simple. , That is, the small area of Hawke’s collar does not allow a fully professional army to be kept for a long time.
When the Osterner was invaded, the Hawker also sent a lot of troops to support the Osterner, so now in the city of Herzig, there is no talent for suppressing the field except for the electoral guards, even if all adult men are enlisted. , The defenders only had 20,000 people.
Now the most elite army in the city is the famous Hawker Drachwald Patrol Battalion. The commander of this reinforced battalion is served by the Imperial General Kazburgh. This is a legendary powerhouse with a long-standing reputation. The most famous heroic deeds are Killed a minotaur in heads-up and became famous throughout the province.
The patrol battalion has five companies, of which three halberd companies are collectively referred to as the "green cap regiment". These halberd soldiers are praised for their red and green uniforms and their ability to face the assault of the beasts without changing their colors.
A swordsman company "Scarlet Rebels" is responsible for protecting the flanks of the halberd formation and is known for his bravery and tenacity.
Of course, the first four companies are not as famous as the last company.
"Ganderman's victorious shooter", the most famous firecracker company in the old world uses the Hawker’s specialty long-tube sniper firecracker, according to the original (blowing) words (bull) of the locals, Captain Gunderman-Bulz can shoot a coin from 350 meters away, which is of course impossible, but if enough time is given to aim around 100-150 meters, this sharpshooter may really be able to do it.
This patrol battalion is the backbone of the electorate’s army. In addition to fighting in the forest and wilderness with strong combat power and being extremely good at fighting in the wilderness, the patrol battalion is also notorious for its dirty hands and feet. "Weird disappearance", after several investigations, it was finally nothing. Considering the arduous task of patrolling the forest and the possible troubles and turbulence in the thorough investigation, the elector himself finally chose to acquiesce.
"It should be very close." General Scharnhorst replied: "If nothing happens, reinforcements will arrive today or tomorrow."
Edbrand-Ludenhof breathed a sigh of relief. Such a huge reinforcement should be able to solve the chaotic army that besieged Herzig once and for all. He is very fortunate that the Empire and Brittany signed an alliance treaty at the time, Charlie Man and Tal are here. He was still firmly opposed to the one that signed the alliance, because the alliance with Brittany may affect the timber export, glass manufacturing and animal husbandry production of Hawking.
Since the elector only needs to hold on for another day or so, the elector is much more relaxed. He looked at the barbarian army under the city, and they looked a little helpless facing the walls of Hezig, basically relying on hooks and ladders made of wood to siege the city. .
Hawker has never lacked excellent musketeers and hunters. Volleys of muskets and a waterfall of arrows fell on the city wall, and the army of evil soldiers lost their troops. After several waves of continuous attacks, they were still unable to attack the city wall. Siegwald The prince refused to bring the behemoth army because he did not like ugliness, and the original Chaos Hell Cannon was lost in the battle of Zedevka, so when he encountered a siege, it was very difficult.
The champion of the goddess selection has tried to personally lead the warriors to attack the city wall of Hezig, but because his dress is too conspicuous, it directly attracted the attention of the chief Hawke’s gunmen and bullets. There were sparks on Siegwald’s armor, which scared the champion of the goddess of choice. He came to the old world with Motkin and he didn’t want to give his life to him. sent!
"According to this attack intensity, we can sustain it for a long time, my elector." Another imperial general came up with a revolver in his hand, and his equipment was significantly better than the surrounding Hawker nobles. A lot of luxury, black and gold color military uniforms and gorgeous body plate armor gleaming.
He was a military adviser sent by Noor, General Erich von Küchler, a senior artillery expert, responsible for commanding the artillery unit led by Hawke, and was sent by Lady Emmanuel to provide professional As the commander of artillery, the elector attaches great importance to him. After all, his eldest son Konrad Ludenhoff is studying at the Noor Gun Academy.
"I hope so." The Elector continued to personally command the battle, and the army of the evil army attacked time and time again, but they were all repelled by the heroic Hawk leaders. The cannons on the walls kept firing, and the proud Hawker musketeers Rows of bullets and white smoke were pouring at the warriors of the shameless warriors, trying to make Prince Siegwald retreat.
Siegwald did not want to give up, he hoped to be able to dedicate the eastern light of this empire to the evildoer, and to his master joyous prince.
Until in the dim setting sun, a ravenous knight rushed to Prince Siegwald's side: "The situation has changed. Master's champion, a huge army is coming towards us from the west! There are a lot of them. , Carrying a lot of artillery, look at the flag, it is the human coalition of Knight King Ryan Macado and Midden leading Boris!"
"Idiot! I knew it a long time ago!" Prince Siegwald waved impatiently, motioning for the mad knight to go away.
Hearing that a huge army was coming, all the mirror guards of Prince Siegwald's guards turned their eyes to their master.
The prince raised his reflective shield, lightly checked his arrogance, and then said faintly: "Give up, in terms of beauty, he Ryan Macado is no match for me."
"Your Excellency, the number of enemies is much more than us!" A magic mirror guard reminded: "Once we are caught in a double-sided attack, we will be in danger of being annihilated!"
"Shut up!" Siegwald's voice sharpened: "Don't I know? I Siegwald doesn't need anyone to remind me!"
"I have sent several Beastman warbands to set up ambushes on the periphery! Today is the day when Ryan Makado will fall!"
On the other side, in the Drachwald Forest, Hawk leads the way.
The army is advancing fast.
"Your Majesty, Herzig is under siege!" The scout sent intelligence: "We are less than three kilometers away from Herzig!"
"All army, speed up!" Ryan commanded loudly, and the Knight King walked at the front of the team himself.
The human army eager to support Herzig just slammed into the beastman’s ambush. For a moment, in the dark jungle, hundreds of beasts and horns led a larger number of inferior horns and centaurs. Various monsters rushed out of the forest, led by dozens of big horns and minotaurs, like waves on a green ocean, gushing out from all directions.
"Roar~hoooooooo~"
"Ouuuuu~"
"Kill...human...meat...eat!"
Thousands of wild orcs looked extremely ferocious, screaming shamans praising the name of the evil god, heralding the coming of glory, the wild beasts were given the opportunity to serve the evil god, the children of Chaos opened their lazy mouths, muttering, Then he screamed, then yelled in groups, praising the gods, and rushed out of the forest in groups, toward the vanguard of the human army.
In the next second, they saw the Knight King Ryan Makado riding on Griffon Impris, and the bearskin caps behind him, with the bearskin caps holding up the golden "L" letters and A tricolor flag embroidered with a lot of place names!
"Knight King, Lady's Chosen Champion, Ryan Makado is here! Who dares to fight with me!" Ryan and Griffin took the lead. The King of Knight raised Thor's Hammer, and he was like a **** descending on the earth: "Ryan is here. this!"
"Go forward! For the lady and the king! For Bretania!" The old guards and the Knights of the Holy Grail immediately followed.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! It's...Lane! It's...a natural enemy!"
"Ululu~ Apocalypse...coming...destroy...coming!"
"We... doomed... fail!"
"Gore... cry!"
"Lane is here! Ryan is here!"
"Lightning...will...burn us!"
"Escape... Escape!!!"
When the big horned beasts saw Lion and the bearskin caps directly pressed over them, they were terrified and shivered. These Beastmen battle groups, which had always been known for their strength and bravery, almost subconsciously threw away their weapons and turned their heads to flee for their lives.
The screaming shamans were frightened. They threw away their staff and fled around. They didn't even have the courage to look back. They ran with their hooves desperately, and even the screaming shaman slammed into the tree and fainted.
The horned beasts and the inferior horned beasts are even more embarrassed. They are already scared with excrement and urine, their legs are weak, and they can only crawl out of the battlefield with their limbs. "Remove feces and urine on the spot.
All the orcs are escaping for their lives. The only thing they thought about at the moment they saw Ryan appeared was to escape. Obviously occupying a geographical advantage and passing an ambush, the first response of a big horned beast group that caught the human coalition by surprise was not to take the opportunity to fight melee. Exerting their strengths, but thinking of running away, and they are disorganized and unordered, each taking care of their own full-scale rout.
The big horns are like this, and the remaining beasts are even more unbearable and completely defeated.
escape! escape! The farther you escape, the better! We can't beat Ryan, it's never possible!
The ambush tactics elaborately designed by Prince Siegwald were completely defeated. Thousands of Beastmen were completely defeated without even reaching the human army. The moment Ryan appeared, the victory or defeat was already doomed.
The fear of the knight king and his army has been carved into the DNA of the Drachwald Beastman, and it is difficult to eliminate it.
Ryan didn’t show mercy. With a wave of his warhammer, the knights took the opportunity to chase and kill them. After a wave of charges, thousands of Beastmen were killed in battle, and all the others had fled. The human army was riding except for one unlucky knight. The horse accidentally tripped over the corpse, causing the horse to fall and break his leg without any casualties.
"WTF?" Prince Siegwald stared at this scene dumbfounded.
It's too late, Ryan personally led the Cavaliers brigade, rolling towards the evil army on the outskirts of Herzig!
