Realm of Power

Hearing the emotion from the old Marshal Antuo, the Dorok generals fell silent.

This time, they stormed Palavon with a strong force, but were blocked by a mere 20,000-strong Falcon Army on the outskirts of Palavon. It was indeed an unexpected surprise. If anyone was greedy in this battle, It would be wrong to be afraid of death, because knowing the importance of this battle to the entire Dorok, even the general who was most afraid of death in the past personally went to the front line this time, taking turns to fight, and tried his best.

At the cost of nearly 5,000 men, they only managed to open a few gaps in the opponent's river bank defense line. However, as soon as a gap appeared, the opponent's mysterious black cavalry would quickly attack.

On the open beach, the cavalry group assault left the assault soldiers who were still marching in the mud with no buffer to resist. They were crushed like mud on the ground by the cavalry's hooves. This happened several times, and they were about to end up on the river bank. When the gap was opened, the black cavalry came like the wind, slashing with swords and trampling on horses, and heads rolled over. The attacking troops retreated in a panic like broken arrows.

The generals can all feel that as the war drags on and remains indecisive, the morale of the Dorok soldiers is declining.

Various squadrons have already reported deserters. The Dorok soldiers have forgotten about their previous great victories. They are fighting against the most powerful country on the continent. Everyone only knows that they are advancing with high morale, advancing, and shouting "March to Palavon" is a slogan that just sounds enough to make people's blood boil. The army is like bulldozing. With just one click, it can push away all the enemies in front.

However, the fierce battles in the past few days have brought the Dorok Army back to reality. The title of the strongest army in the mainland is indeed not an exaggeration. This is already the hinterland of the Falcon Empire and the defense center of the Falcon Army. In this area Fighting on the vast plains made the Dorok soldiers who were accustomed to the local mountain defense operations very uncomfortable. Many of them were temporarily recruited mountain hunters.

They were a little confused as to why they appeared here. Didn't they recruit them to rescue Fort Kurma? Why did they arrive in this strange land in a blink of an eye? If everyone came here, what would happen to that family? ?

"Your Excellency Marshal"

An unruly figure stood out from among the Dorok generals, wearing polished half-length plate armor. Wearing a large scarlet cloak behind him, he half-knelt in front of Antuo

"I beg you again to let my Red Guard cavalry go up."

"You?" Antuo glanced solemnly at the figure kneeling in front of him. This person was Mo Angrig who was still being punished. Under Marshal Antuo's electric gaze, Mo Angrig held up his arms with great pride. head

"I hope the marshal will approve my request. I have observed carefully in the past few days. Although the opponent's cavalry is powerful, their weaknesses are also obvious. Their number is obviously not large, and they need to rush back and forth for reinforcements because of the lack of troops. This affects the physical strength of the war horses. It consumes a lot of money. If we can arrange it properly, our subordinates are sure to completely defeat them in a single confrontation and open up a smooth path for the army to advance."

"Proper arrangements? I understand what you mean, but you want to go to the battlefield. That's not possible, you haven't arrived yet." Antuo looked at Mo Anglige, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. But after a moment of silence, he still rejected his request for a fight without mercy.

"Marshal, all the armies are exhausted now. In terms of combat strength, only my Red Guard cavalry is still intact." After hearing that his request for battle was rejected, Mo Angrig became convinced.

He had been preparing for this opportunity for two days. Both the plan and the strategy had been engraved in his heart. As long as Antuo asked, he would be able to show it off. You can not only show your wisdom, but also give a severe blow to those villains who are peeping by.

"A general who only knows how to kill, even if he has combat power, what's the use of it? I don't dare to use someone like you."

Antuo snorted disdainfully and stopped listening to his explanation. He raised his legs and walked past Mo Anglig who was half kneeling on the ground, completely ignoring Mo Angrig's face that looked insulted and angry.

"Indeed, if it weren't for someone's wanton killing, we wouldn't be in such a predicament."

"That's right, just look at the Falcon Army who are fighting for their lives against us. They are fighting there with the determination to die. This is all the work of some idiot."

Amidst some small discussions nearby, Mo Anlig's face turned red with frustration, like a beast that had been severely wounded. He raised his head and looked at the back of the old handsome Antuo with bloodshot eyes.

The few generals Dorok who were talking quietly next to him were frightened by his distorted expression and quickly stopped talking. Since the last massacre of the fleeing prisoners, Antuo has never sent Mo Anglige's Red Army again. The Guardsmen have been on the battlefield,

There is no airtight wall in the world. The conversation between Antuo and Mo Anglige was also spread by some guards present at the time, and various versions were derived. At first, no one believed it. Mo Anglige As the commander of the Red Guard Cavalry, at such an emergency, would the Marshal let go of the strongest unit in his hand?

But subsequent facts proved that these rumors were not groundless. During the three days of fierce fighting, the careful generals discovered that even at the most critical moment when the two armies were strangled, the most elite Red Guard Lancers in Dorok's army obtained The only order was to stay in the camp and rest, not to mention fighting, there was not even the slightest sign of gathering.

This undoubtedly proves some of the previous rumors in the army. Mo Anglig's excessive pride finally angered the Marshal. In a fit of anger, the Marshal directly hid Mo Angrig in the snow. If it was in Aaron, Maybe the General Council will come out and say something fair, but this is a battlefield, and Anto can completely cover the sky with one hand.

"Deserved it"

Regarding this situation, some people say that the punishment is too severe, but there are also many people who take a gloating attitude towards this matter.

Most of these people are middle-level generals with the same status as Mo Angrig. They clearly smelled the opportunity from this matter. You must know that Mo Angrig is not an ordinary flag commander, but a guard. The commander of Aaron's Red Guard Cavalry, his special characteristics directly affect Aaron's every move. The 8,000 Red Guard Lancers under his command are the most elite troops stationed near Aaron.

Moreover, it is the fastest to obtain the assault cavalry. It does not even take 3 hours to get from the station to the center of Aaron City. It is the most combat-effective organized unit nearby. Whoever can control this unit is the same as having control of Aaron. A hand in the region can easily hold Aaron in his hand when necessary. There is never a shortage of careerists in troubled times, but Aaron's unique status also prevented many generals from thinking in that direction in the past.

But things are different now. The President of the General Assembly, Duo Zai, first broke the iron rule among the various tribes that Aaron must not see blood. With the emergence of the old marshal, the power of the military has surpassed that of the parliament. In the face of this turbulent opportunity, as long as Everyone will be tempted,

Now that Mo Anglig has lost his trust, the new successor may very well become Aaron's first governor after the general council loses power. And with such a force in hand, even if the Falcon Army approaches Aaron, Lun, you can also have a negotiation weight in your hand.

"Let's go, who knows what this lunatic will do..." Several Dorok generals looked at Moenlig with the same eyes as the god of plague, full of all kinds of contempt, no wonder He would be so angry because he could faintly hear the sound of Marshal Anto's military deployment in the distance.

"All armies continue to be on alert and must not slack off. Take a day off today to recuperate. Tomorrow, using this method, we will definitely be able to capture the opposite river bank in one fell swoop." As for the method he mentioned, even a fool would know what it is.

"You villains." The humiliation and grief in his heart at this moment made Mo Anglige's depression and depression reach the extreme. He suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and a mouthful of hot blood surged into his throat, and a stream of scarlet blood surged up. The arrow suddenly spurted to the ground, and his struggling and swaying body fell from the ground. He stood up, pulled out the sword from his waist, and thrust it into the ground. The sharp blade made a crisp sound. He supported his whole body and said in a weak voice that only he could hear. "I swear by this sword that one day you will regret today's decision."

On the fourth day, the battle of the Gadisa River became fierce again.

Hu Keqili discovered that after a day of rest, the Dorok people's attack seemed to have adjusted. The original thunderous all-out offensive had turned into an attempted attack. The Dorok people carried out several small attacks in different areas. The scale test attack was intended to test the strength of the troops in each section of the river through the intensity of the counterattack on the other side of the river. Because without Hu Keqili's order, the defending troops could only defend the river bank and fight back with bows and arrows.

"Sir, I feel something is wrong." Bolar, the leader of the Second Flag, came over with a confused expression and said to Hu Keqili.

"What's wrong?" Hu Keqili was a little disapproving. Launching a small-scale test before attacking is not a very clever tactic. It basically occurs in most offensive and defensive battles. There is really no need to make a fuss.

"That's right, I saw the other party quietly picking up the arrow clusters we shot on the deck of their ship."

Boral has always been cautious. Even when it was clear that it was a small probing attack, he was on the front line, so he could clearly see the enemies launching probing attacks in small boats. There was a row of baffles placed in front of the opponent's ships. ,

This is not uncommon in battle, but it is very problematic if the opponent sneaks around the river and picks up arrow clusters on the baffle.

"Are you sure they were trying along the river section and picking up the arrow clusters we shot?" Hu Keqili's expression suddenly became serious. Such behavior was indeed full of doubts, but for a moment, he couldn't figure it out.

“Absolutely true”

Bolavan nodded affirmatively, with a wry smile on his face, "Maybe I'm overthinking it. Have the Doroks finished shooting their arrows? Are you kidding? Tens of thousands of troops still care about the few arrows we shot. ?”
