Realm of Power

The outpost battle of Fegei broke out suddenly and ended suddenly. The Hungarian army had more than 100,000 troops, but only attacked with a few thousand cavalry. Yaglins judged that this was probably because the Hungarians did not expect to encounter a surprise attack. The imperial cavalry, otherwise with such combat power, would be enough to easily overwhelm the outpost of Fegei, which was only guarded by a few hundred people. More than a hundred imperial cavalry were escorting groups of Silas prisoners passing by. , these Silas people huddled in the ditch of Fegui Fortress, numbering seven or eight thousand in number, and were easily surrounded by the imperial cavalry. Except for a few who escaped, most of them chose to surrender directly.

Looking back from the imperial cavalry figure who was escorting a group of Silas prisoners in the distance, Yaglins said to Rilla General Boatho next to him.

"Although I hate to say it, I think Fegey should be abandoned because we decided to build a defense line along the river. Then Fegey, which is located south of the river, is equivalent to giving up. This time it was luck, and it also occupied the terrain. Advantages, it will be difficult to say next time, after all, no matter it is Neither our emperor nor your Majesty's Ruela Army can focus on this place with such a tight force. Fegey's defense is simple and it cannot bear the front wall of the battle. Giving up on Fegey is a helpless choice. Now we need Save any force that can fight!"

"I don't agree to give up Feigey, and we need to strengthen our troops! If you are worried about it, I am willing to personally lead the Rila Army to station here and serve as an eyeliner for the imperial army!" Boaso hesitated for a moment and said in a serious voice.

"What does Mr. Boaso mean by this? How to persevere and not give up. The price we need to invest will be very high! It may even change the entire deployment." A trace of anger flashed on Yagelinsi's face, and his bloodshot eyes flashed. With a touch of desolation, he said, "As a soldier, I can understand your persistence, but if all the soldiers die, who will recover the fallen areas and who will save you Ruila people!"

"Don't get me wrong, Mr. Yaglins. I don't agree to give up Feigey, not just for personal reasons." Rila veteran Boaso's face was resolute, and his eyes firmly swept across the city wall in front of him that was completely stained red with blood. The hand holding the riding whip tightened and said, "It's also because this is the frontier of the south bank. It's only an hour away from the river. Once the Hungarian army captures Fegei, it will inevitably use this as a support point to promote the entire northward advance." , our Ruila army can't resist it for long even if it's stationed along the river!"

"And give up Fegey Fortress. This means that there will no longer be any Rila army south of the river. For the southern Rila people who yearn for it day and night in the fallen land, the presence of Fegey means that the kingdom is still there. Planning a counterattack, the absence of Fegei means that the kingdom has completely given up on them, which will be a disaster! '

"Have you made up your mind to hold on? You must know that there are 200,000 Hungarian troops on the opposite side, and even the target of your first arrow will be your own countrymen. Do you really have such a consciousness?" Yaglinsi felt See the determination in this veteran's heart. Knowing that no matter how I tried to persuade him, it was useless, I sighed helplessly.

"I'm burdening you. I know this request. It must be very embarrassing for you. You already have insufficient troops, and you have to take into account the stubbornness of old man Ruila. It's really... Please forgive me!" Boaso nodded slightly. , with an apologetic wry smile on his face, it was his temporary decision to stick to Fegei. And he also thinks that Yagelins is right. Will he raise his sword to his compatriots?

"According to the nature of the Hungarians. After suffering a defeat here, there is a high possibility that they will come in force next time." Yaglins looked serious. "If the Hungarian army drives the southern Rila people to fill the city, then your Excellency what to do?"

"I don't know!" The Riela veteran showed a look of pain on his face, laughed miserably, and looked at the earth in the distance. "But giving up Fegey like this is equivalent to giving up the hundreds of thousands of Riela people in the south!" If I were the ministers of the Kingdom of Kyoto, such a choice would not be difficult, there would be no personal pain, and there would never be a shortage of people who sing loudly and advocate that the overall situation should be the most important thing, but the goods are soldiers. He is a soldier who has devoted thirty years to this land. As he moves from youth to old age, his shrewd eyes become cloudy. Looking at the sunset and sunrise here, and the stern armor on the border, it is the support of the land here. For me, at this moment, how can I turn my head and not look at the wailing of the Chinese people in this land?"

"If you insist on guarding Fegei, then I will have to change all my plans! With your Rila army and our empire's 60,000 troops, it is impossible to resist the Hungarian attack of 200,000 troops in Fegei. , since you can't resist, you can only find another way! "Yagelins' eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. To Boaso's surprise, he didn't get angry, but smiled and said, "Actually, I have always had an idea, but I never had the courage to do it. The disparity in military strength is so great. It’s so big that even if we defend ourselves along the river, we won’t be able to stop it for long.”

"Since we can't defend, it's better to take the initiative to attack! Attack is the best defense. This sentence is the mantra of our Emperor. I always didn't understand it deeply in the past, but now, I have this understanding! Twenty Although the Wanxiong Ya Army looks powerful, it is actually alone The combat power is not strong,” Jagelins’ eyes flashed and he murmured in a low voice. “The Hungarians’ biggest mistake was to leave their backs to the Silas who had no combat power! Mixing the sheep into the wolf pack was not only a mistake! It won’t increase your strength, but it will drag you down! "

"sheep?"

"Your Excellency means to take the initiative to attack! This...this...!" Boaso looked at Yaglins with a horrified expression, his mouth half-opened, and he was so shocked that he could not find the words to express it, even though he knew this With the ferocity of the imperial general on the battlefield, he vaguely felt that attacking might be a way to deal with the current predicament, but he just flashed through his mind and forgot about it. Attacking twenty Behind the Wanxiong Army, this joke is too big. You must know that the Huns are not infantry, but cavalry, and there are many highly mobile light cavalry. Once their whereabouts are detected, and they turn around and encircle them, those who invest will die. , even if the attacking force is replaced by the elite cavalry of the empire that we saw today, which easily defeated 7,000 Hungarian cavalry with 5,000, this plan is quite unrealistic.

"I know what you are thinking, but such an idea is too dangerous! Please don't..." Boaso trembled with an ugly face, "You cannot let your Excellency go into danger just because of my stubbornness. territory"

"Haha, it's not as serious as you think," Yagelins interrupted him. His eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, and he said nonchalantly, "Although there are 200,000 Hungarian cavalry, if you break them down, you will find that the Hungarians' ability to quickly engage in a battle is actually very limited. "

"Limited?" Boaso was stunned for a moment.

"According to what I know, most of the elite Hungarian troops are gathered near the main force, and the combat power scattered on the periphery is not strong," Yaglins explained. "Secondly, the Hungarians are good at driving prisoners away and attacking cities. But. This time, tens of thousands of prisoners were escorted to the south of Rila, and the speed was destined to be so huge. Unable to maneuver quickly, it is only possible to advance slowly in groups. In order to control these prisoners, at least half of the Hungarian troops are restrained. This is the biggest advantage and biggest disadvantage of the Hungarian army. It is like a heavy body. The beast cannot capture the agile jumping sheep on the rock! "

"Based on this, among the 200,000 Hungarian troops, the number of elite cavalry units that can truly engage in a high-mobility encounter will not exceed 30,000, and they must be assembled in advance! With the combat power of our army, Even if you encounter it, what can you do? Why don’t you give it a try!

Yagelins licked his lips excitedly. Teasing two hundred thousand Hungarian troops would be the pinnacle of his life, if he succeeded. His name was destined to be written into history. He completely failed to notice the huge waves in the heart of Boaso, a veteran of Rila. What a terrible guy, facing 200,000 Hungarian troops, he still had such courage. His courage, his decisiveness and his keen sense of opportunity. They are far superior to the generals of the Barrow countries in Central Europe of the same era. This is the true character of a warrior that can only be tempered through many battles like mountains of corpses and seas of blood. If the generals of the Falcon Empire are of this caliber, no wonder they were able to sweep through the two empires in just a few years and become the pinnacle overlord of this era!

"That's it, let's decide!"

Yaglins rolled up the riding whip in his hand and said, "Your Excellency, immediately transfer the main force of the Rila Army. I will go and talk to Reposti. Although the defense here is simple, when it comes to defensive capabilities, Reposti is in the Imperial Realm." He is also one of the top five figures. With his help, he will definitely be able to attract the main force of the Hungarians. , the other party never imagined that I would lead the cavalry into their rear from the flank and kill him like a fool!" Seeing the pride on Yagelins' face, what Rila veteran Boaso thought of was that among the empire's wings, Jaglins is good at raids, while the other Reposti is good at defense. The two are mutually supportive.

The headquarters of the Hungarian Eastern Army,

"You don't know how to live or die, do you really think that you are the King of Hungary! He even dares to think about it!" The Hungarian Army Prime Minister Baidu Lasu threw a secret letter in his hand on the table with disdain. , this letter is made of animal skin, and there is a dark red seal on the convolution corner. This secret letter comes from the Hungarian Spanish Army.

What is mentioned above is that the Hungarian Prime Minister Wu Ya was arrogant and domineering, and he was so cowardly that during this period he even took the concubine of the former Hungarian King to the Western Army camp, although the Hungarians never cared about men and women. As for relationship issues, it doesn't matter even if adult men and women have sexual intercourse privately. However, some people still expressed their dissatisfaction that the prime minister actually reached out to the late king's concubine.

Part of it was because the Prime Minister’s actions were a bit too much, and part of it was the nobles who were greedy for Concubine Mo Hongluo Na.

The King of Hungary died. This Hungarian beauty with the title of concubine was only twenty-five years old. She was in the prime of her life and her beauty that captivated the country naturally made many people miss her. There is no such thing as being so forceful and oppressive without regard for face, trying to win over a beautiful woman!

There are always people who are dissatisfied! The Prime Minister Wu Ya is now extremely powerful and has military power in his hands. Everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak out. I don’t know who remembered that the military minister of Hung Ya has a detached status and has the responsibility to supervise the entire army. Now is the time when the whole country is revolting for revenge. Zhan Zhan After losing military power, it was the jurisdiction of the military minister, so someone wrote a secret report to the Eastern Army.

However, for the sophisticated Eastern Army Prime Minister Bai Dulasu, such a secret report was really meaningless. He had been in a high position as a regulator for decades, and he had seen no matter how noisy and domineering, she was just a woman. , there is as much difference as to whose arms you are in. The only thing that made him frown slightly was that the Mo Hong family was one of the three most powerful families in Hungary, and the Prime Minister of Hungary, Wu Ya, was now the first-class figure in Hungary. This combination of power is what makes him feel the need to be vigilant. The Eastern Army is incompetent against the Western Army. It is still stagnating on the northern front and doing nothing, secretly holding a sigh of relief.

Previously, the Western Army mocked the Eastern Army as an old horse with all its fur falling off. It was used to eating the food in the trough and lost the courage to go out to find new grass. But now the Eastern Army can move hundreds of miles away. They reached Ruila's southern line without a fight, and even defeated Ruila's southern defense in one fell swoop. Looking at the Hungarian Western Army at this time, it is called incompetent. Nearly 300,000 people were held back in the mountains for two months, using a lot of manpower and materials. More than 30,000 Hungarians were killed, and 70,000 to 80,000 slaves were filled in various ditches and ditches before they could reach the northern line of Rila. However, outside the gate, more than 100,000 Rila were temporarily recruited. La Jun stopped, but the Western Army's battle was really terrible. Since the troops were dispatched, although the troops have been expanding, they have been looting. It also left serious hidden dangers. The crisis of food shortage has exposed the internal conflicts of the 300,000-strong Western Army, and everything that can be looted has been looted. As resources become less and less, infighting among tribes occurs frequently.

Under this situation, Prime Minister Wu Ya was able to calm down, but the nobles of the Western Army could not. How to fight if there is no food? When it came to attacking the defense line drawn by the Ruila people in front, everyone hung their heads and remained silent. The angry Prime Minister Wu Ya could not do anything, after all, he was still the leader of the Western Army. He had no choice but to line up his direct troops, but the attack was not effective. Thousands of people were killed by the Rila army equipped with hundreds of imperial heavy ballistae. It was so frightened that no Hungarian archer dared to go to Rila anymore. Drifting within two hundred meters in front of the defense line,

There is a stalemate on the northern front, but the Eastern Army is ready to attack on the southern front. The Hungarian Eastern Army has 200,000 troops, including 70,000 to 80,000 elite troops. After reorganization and rest, its combat power has long exceeded the so-called Western Army. 300,000, and with the support of the Kingdom of Silas on the southern front, military rations will not be a problem in a short time. Question, before the 200,000 Hungarian army on the southern front, there were only 60,000 emperors and a small number of Rila border troops. It is said that they all withdrew to the second line of defense Peres early and almost gave up three points directly. Ruila, one of the countries, swallowed up such resources and population in one go.

"The Eastern Army was tense. As soon as everything was ready, it marched north with all its strength, swallowing up Rila, the former most powerful country in Central Europe, in one breath, and completely disappearing this country that had defeated the Hungarian ancestors a hundred years ago! "With such a consensus, it can be imagined that the generals of the Hungarian Eastern Army admired Military Prime Minister Baidulasu. The armies prepared for war and gathered Sori They recruited people as cannon fodder. When the news of Feigei's defeat came back, several ten thousand captains in the Eastern Army immediately asked Military Prime Minister Baidu Lasu to fight. As soon as they entered Prime Minister Baidu Lasu's military tent, they saw the old military commander. With a tired face, he was leaning on a bed with a fur coat. On the side of the bed, there were a few books scattered, with dense circles on them, and the handwriting was still fresh. It seemed that they were the result of the past few days.

"Fegey is defeated, why is the military minister still so calm?" Several captains looked at each other awkwardly, but looking at Baidu Lasu's aging body, he looked even thinner, and he seemed to stand up with a tired look on his face. No strength at all. My heart is full of apologies,

"Now that you are here, sit down!" Baidulasu raised his hand slightly to signal the captains to sit down, and said this as soon as he opened his mouth, "Fegey's defeat was intentional. There is nothing surprising." , Fegui is the outpost of the opponent's army. Although there are not many troops stationed, its geographical location is very important. It can be said to be support for the northward march, and it can also be used as a support for the southward march. Shield, because of this, I deliberately sent the Silas people to fight. The Silas people are incompetent and will definitely not be able to defeat them. This can instead remind the other party of the importance of the Fegei outpost. As long as the other party has such thoughts, they will We will inevitably give up our previous plan to defend Perez and push the defense line to the Fegui line. That is our opportunity! "

Baidulas stood up immediately, glanced aggressively at the surprised captains, and said with a smile, "My Hungarian reputation is known to the world for being good at attacking but not good at defending. Although a large number of slaves have gathered this time, , but it will be very difficult to capture the strong wall of Perez, which has been managed by the Riela people for hundreds of years. However, if we can successfully lead the enemy's main force to the Fegui line to fight our army decisively, then our army can break through the southern border in a short time. possible The sexual power will be greatly increased, and you have also seen the combat power of the Falcon Empire Cavalry. They are our powerful enemies in Hungary. With the same strength, no one can fight with them. If they are allowed to run wild on the battlefield, our army will be very disadvantageous. , the terrain around Fegei is flat, and the opponent's cavalry will inevitably move in and set up defenses, which is equivalent to being put on the horse's head. No matter how good he is at fighting, if I use 100,000 riras to pile him up, I don't believe that the opponent will still be alive. body!"

"Haha!" Several captains laughed slightly. They did not participate in the battle of Qianrui that day, but the fact that the other party was able to fight one against three was put there. The battle of Qianrui was commanded by the military minister. Who dares to say that the military commander's command was improper, leading to the defeat of the front line? It's just a pity that the more than 10,000 Hungarian warriors were really useless in that battle. With the strength of the Hungarian cavalry, they were pushed back by the opponent with long-range weapons. This was so embarrassing to say that even the front-line warriors were defeated. War has virtually become forbidden, (to be continued)
