Realm of Power

The eleventh day of the battle of Cornelia,

The Emperor of the Erro Empire immediately stood on the top of the mountain on the right side of Cornelia Port. His right hand grasped the reins of the violently galloping war horse under his crotch. His eyebrows were slightly furrowed and his eyes were like a sharp sword. He swept across the large military camps in front of the mountains and fields with the Star and Moon Flag, and landed. The faces of some of the Aden warriors wearing white-and-red-moon battle robes and armor became more and more solemn.

The attire of these Aden soldiers is completely different from ordinary Aden soldiers, and even different from those elite troops with gorgeous armor.

These plainly dressed soldiers only wore black and white helmets on their heads, with cold faces, and strange curved double-edged swords on their waists. When walking, the Aden soldiers would immediately and consciously make way for them, and The soldiers of Aden would kneel on both sides devoutly and kowtow to these passing soldiers with a red moon on a white background. When the officers of the Ding Army saw these strangely dressed soldiers, they would bend down and salute. This was absolutely impossible in the hierarchical Kingdom of Aden, but the situation in front of them was so natural. Those eyes in the past The Aden nobles looking towards the sky seemed to be subconsciously avoiding these soldiers.

"Your Majesty, you are the God's Punishment Army of the Aden people!"

Behind him, a General Ayrault took a breath of cold air and whispered. Like him, the faces of several other General Ayrault also turned ugly. Their eyes fell on these red moon shirts. People will subconsciously avoid dangerous things, just like people’s conditioned reflex towards dangerous things.

"What kind of God's Punishment Army are you boasting about? A younger General Aero who just came from the rear obviously hasn't figured out the situation yet. Hearing what was said here was very serious, he immediately curled his lips in disdain, but he was His colleagues glared at him angrily, and even the emperor glared at him with an unkind look, which frightened General Ayrault into a cold sweat.

"Although the Aden God's Punishment Army is the enemy, as the strongest warrior in the Kingdom of Aden for a hundred years, you are not qualified to humiliate them!" A gray-haired veteran snorted angrily.

"Warrior?" The young General Ayrault was stunned for a moment. The word warrior is generally not used in the army, but if someone is really called a warrior, then this person must be extremely strong, because warriors live in the desert. In the customs of the nation, they often refer to famous warriors within the clan.

The veteran's eyes flashed with a sharp luster, and he said slowly, "The Aden God's Punishment Army is a warrior, not a soldier, because they do not belong to any lord of Aden, not even to the king. They only obey the orders of the Aden God Sacrifice Hall. Every god The punishment army is all the king of Aden Excellent people who have been specially trained by the Kingdom God Sacrifice Hall from childhood in various parts of the Kingdom of Aden. After more than ten years of combat training, they have been selected layer by layer. Among the one hundred selected candidates, there are often less than 100 candidates who can eventually become the Temple God Punishment Army. Ten people can finally enter the God's Punishment Army Every one of them is a super soldier with rich combat experience. They are extremely fanatical and loyal in their beliefs. It is said that during the ceremony to become the God's Punishment Army, they will use their own dagger to carve the two words of God's Punishment between their eyebrows. words, and the most frightening What's more, each of the God's Punishment Army voluntarily accepted the castration in the temple to show that they completely belong to God, both mentally and physically. This kind of super soldier who is merciless to himself has arrived on the battlefield. There is a ferocious beast above. There is no life or death, only faith. With its superior combat power, even several times the number of troops may not be able to stop their assault. In previous battles, there have been exaggerated records of 500 Aden God’s Punishment Army defeating a team of ten thousand people. The Aden God’s Punishment Army has The name is notorious throughout the South. , together with the Pontifical Black Knights of the Wish Tree Order Country, are known as the enemies you least want to encounter on the battlefield. "" Sir Kate, don't boast too much about these God's Punishment Army. The God's Punishment Army's combat power is truly outstanding. , but the total has never exceeded three thousand. In this battle of hundreds of thousands of people In the great battle, it will play a negligible role!" Emperor Aero's face was extremely calm, and he waved his riding whip. While comforting his general, he looked at the Aden people in front, like a hero from a high place. The eagle is sizing up its prey, "God's punishment" Army, the Aden royal family really can't handle it!" Emperor Aero had a faint sneer on his lips. For more than a thousand years, Aero has been the front line against the invasion of desert peoples in the Obarro region. Of course Emperor Aero is very Clearly, what does it mean for God’s Punishment Army to appear on the opposite side!

As the spiritual belief of the Aden people, the Aden Shang Temple participated in the war. This kind of news is the most terrifying.

The Kingdom of Aden, whose army was in trouble due to the imperial attack, finally made a request to the Temple of the Lord. Such a situation often only occurs when the Kingdom of Aden is in danger of life and death. Although Aden is a country with strong religious beliefs, the royal family and the Lord The temple has always maintained a certain tacit understanding that will not be broken, and the God's Punishment Army will not break it. What's scary is that the influence brought by the arrival of the God's Punishment Army is enough to wipe out the low morale caused by the previous unfavorable battles of the Eero Army. The power of religious belief is enough to slow down the Eero Army from its sluggish state. At such a moment, Requesting the temple to send out the God’s Punishment Army means that the Aden royal family has begun to want to end this war as soon as possible!

Emperor Ayrault's speculation was verified in the early morning of the 13th day of the battle.

Smoke and dust were billowing. Since the last large-scale decisive battle, the camel cavalry of the Aden people, guarding the Aden nobles, appeared again in the sight of the Aero army. As the dense fog in the early morning dispersed a little, the first wave of the Aden people The queue began to appear, it was countless slaves, The black mass was like a black tide covering the earth. "Damn it, can we kill all these Aden slaves?" There was a commotion in the Aero army, and the hands of the soldiers who pulled the bow strings were trembling. Such a large-scale dispatch of slaves , indicating that the Aden people are going to launch a full-scale attack this time

Most of these prisoners are old people and women, and many are young adults.

Usually behind these slave armies, Aden's cavalry would follow them, whipping them with whips, stabbing them with spears, and slashing them with sabers, forcing them to move forward. Those who fell behind would be brutally whipped if they lagged behind a little. , but this time it was different, the Eero soldiers were not behind these slaves Seeing the Aden cavalry driving away, just when the Eero army was in a daze, the dark Aden slaves on the opposite side suddenly spread out from the middle, and a knight of the God's Punishment Army wearing a red-bottomed star-and-moon shirt rode a huge The camels came slowly, and wherever they passed, all the slaves knelt on the ground.

In silence, hundreds of meters along the route where the God's Punishment Army knight camel passed, suddenly it was like a pair of invisible hands suddenly opened from below, like a huge sword cutting through the earth, like a divine mark coming, The knight of the God's Punishment Army raised the weapon in his hand and pointed it fiercely at the Ero army on the opposite side.

"God!" the overwhelming voice of a hundred thousand Aden slaves

"What's going on!"

The ordinary soldiers of the Aero army were dumbfounded. How else could they explain it other than saying it was a miracle. However, the generals of Aero, who had vaguely guessed something, had serious expressions on their faces and wanted to drip water.

"Stabilize the entire front, no retreat!"

Generals Ayrault shuddered on horseback and roared wildly at the back of the queue. The supervising team raised their beheading axes in succession, God's Punishment Army! , there is no doubt that the situation has begun to get out of control, and these slaves can make these slaves willing to die so consciously. Although it is not known what the knight of the God's Punishment Army did to cause such a scene, at least it can be regarded as showing in front of countless Aden slaves. With the power of God that does not belong to the human world, these were captured by Aden The God's Punishment Army, which people respectfully call the God's Chosen Warriors, represents the will of God. Now, as long as the God's Punishment Army declares that the Ero army on the opposite side is the enemy, then the nearly 100,000 Aden slaves in front of them will fight against it without hesitation. The enemies of God launched an attack. One hundred thousand slaves and one hundred thousand fanatics were completely different things!

"Kill!" Under some kind of inspiration, the Aden slaves rushed towards the Aero army like a collapsing flood. Countless arrows flew from the direction of the Aero army. There were more than 200,000 soldiers in both armies. The battle line of troops suddenly filled the flat ground in front of Cornelia. Din Slave attacked the Eero army like crazy. The battle line expanded from the hundreds of meters they first met to thousands of meters at an unimaginable speed. The archers of the Eero army did not even need to aim, just filled the sky. Shoot, row after row of archers take turns firing intensively

"shooting!"

Orders came and went, tens of thousands of bows kept "squeaking" like a full moon, and "swooshing" arrows poured on the heads of the Aden people like a continuous rainstorm. Countless Aden slaves fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, but the number of attacking Aden slaves was so large that even the weapons of the Eero army could not kill them. Although the Aden slaves lacked weapons and armor, they were surrounded by people with various simple weapons in their hands. He stabbed the soldiers of the Hérault army indiscriminately, even if they were killed by the Hérault army A sword split open his stomach, and his intestines flowed out. He still rushed towards the Aero soldiers in front without any scruples. When many Aden slaves fell, they were still shouting "Damn heretics!" Rui Soldiers slashed and killed with sharp weapons, and the battle line was completely turned blood red.

"Stay still, don't panic, the opponent's weapons are not that scary!"

An Ayrault infantry captain was squeezed back covered in blood. His sword was still stuck in the stomach of an Aden slave, and the Aden slaves hit him with a stick on his arm. Fortunately, these Aden slaves had weapons. Simple, if what hit his hand was a hammer, the entire arm would be useless. Within his sight, the Aden people seemed to be going crazy. If the spears in the hands of the Erro infantry were thrust out, they would be grabbed tightly by the opponent's hands. The color of blood spread everywhere. His men were shoulder to shoulder, shields Holding shields, the back row was next to the front row, and the Aden people on the opposite side were so crowded that it was hard to breathe.

"Stay steady"

"No, there are too many people on the other side." "Pay attention, ah!" A cold light struck, and just as he shouted loudly, a spiked hammer hit his head, and his helmet was dented. The blood was like sauce exploding from the inside of the helmet, and the entire neck was broken. Inside the Aden slaves, a group of Aden infantry mixed inside tore open This line of defense is mixed with some elite troops among the slaves. This is a combat method of the Aden Army. Because there are too many slaves, as long as they don't wear too obvious armor, the enemy will not notice this at all. As a result, When faced with the onslaught of slaves from Aden, if you are not careful, you will be hit to open the gap, "Woooo!"

Hundreds of bare-chested Aden buglers raised the long horns that curved like the moon, put them in their mouths, and blew them vigorously. The regular army of Aden began to advance, stepping on the road covered with blood and flesh. The Aden infantry formations were like lines, holding scaly white shields and wearing scale armor. Plate armor has never been equipped by the Aden people. The scale armor technology of the desert people is the top level of this era. "Only the barbaric Obarro people like heavy and aesthetically pleasing plate armor." This is the mantra of the Aden craftsmen.

With the loud horns, the first Aden infantry to advance began to accelerate. They all did not wear helmets, and the weapons in their hands were single-edged machetes that were good at close combat. Many people simply took off their leather armor. These were all criminals sentenced to felonies. The way to survive and get freedom was to exchange them with the enemy's heads. Their equipment was mainly bayonets and short broadswords. Some people had undergone professional short-term training. Good at close combat, the entire army advanced in a scattered line. Row after row of archers, swordsmen, lancers, and shieldmen were organized in an orderly manner, showing extremely high morale in their neatness. They were no longer the Aden army that had lost its fighting spirit half a month ago because of the burning of food.

All this was because of the arrival of the Hall Master of the God's Punishment Army, Yagoro. The 40-year-old Hall Master of the God's Punishment Army rode on a pure white warhorse that represented nobility, with a long golden cloak hanging down to the ground. Behind him, the star-crescent battle flag was like blood, and his eyes flashed with an inexplicable luster as he looked at the battle ahead.

From his position, he could clearly see the outline of Cornelia, as well as the semicircular coastline outside the city, which was blue and moving. The large area of ​​shrubs was green, gradually turning into the dark black color of Cornelia's withered things. That was the mark of being burned by the war. Next to Yagoro, there was a dark red-haired man, A handsome boy about fifteen years old, wearing a gorgeous gilded headgear with a white ribbon on his head, his two thin and arrogant lips were tightly pressed together,

"Palace Master, is that thing really in Cornelia? What if there is a problem with the royal record?" The handsome boy asked in a crisp voice

"It should be correct. The temple has spent so much time and research. If the royal family had not been forced into a corner this time, the other party would not have taken it out for exchange. If there is a problem, the anger of the temple will ignite the entire royal family!" The hall master of the God's Punishment Army, Yago Luo, said with a cold face, "As for how the Ero people knew it, this is not difficult to understand. Don't forget that the ancestors of the Ero people were the attendants of the God. They were forced to flee the holy city of Logmoria. It is normal for them to record the news about the ruins of the God!" (To be continued.)
