Realm of Power

In the southern part of the Order State, at Roanglink Fortress, heavy rain poured down, and the sound of killings shrouded the world. The densely packed Martin Tooth soldiers attacked the huge fortress in front like a tide. The fortress seemed to be in front of a huge wave, and it seemed that it would be destroyed at any time. Suddenly collapsed, the famous imperial general Reposti stood on the head of the fortress in heavy armor. The main siege force below changed for the fourth time. People, a large group of Martin Liya people refilled the vacant battlefield, but they crowded behind, shouting loudly as they moved forward, their swords hitting the shields, making a loud sound, in response. Although the drums and roars are loud, the pace of progress is not very fast. Even so, this overwhelming wave of people is enough to put pressure on people.

Behind the Martin Liya army below, a tall flag made Reposti's pupils shrink. The Anxili family, it is said that the killed Lord Martin Liya was the lord of the Anxili family, and this time, Martin The leader of the Sharp Tooth Army was the Anxili family. Even if Reposti was confused, he could guess that the person who killed Lord Martin of the Sharp Tooth Army should be someone from that army.

What exactly does the other party want? "

Reposti's eyes were blood red, and his fingers could not help but clenched into fists. The other party used to frame the empire to suddenly attack. It was obvious that they had planned it for a long time. Ever since he found out that Lord Martin Liya was plotted by one of his own people, Reposti felt anxious in his heart. Already aware that he was being plotted, the lord of the Martin Tooth people stepped over When the border comes, it is 100% supported by someone behind it. The other party has no intention of letting this lord go back alive. From the moment he crosses the border, the lord is already dead in the eyes of the other party. As long as the imperial army takes action, When the time comes, all we need to do is kill Lord Martin Fang, and the empire will only be blamed.

The other party's methods are not cruel, but they are also extremely effective.

The Martin Fangs have swallowed half of the Harvey Kingdom and forced the Harveys to the plateau. How could the hundreds of thousands of Martin Fang troops fill half of the Harvey? After realizing that they could not attack the plateau, Their eyes will inevitably turn to the southern part of the Order Kingdom, but they are hesitant because of the empire's reputation. The death of Lord Martin Liga undoubtedly gave the Martin Liga people the best excuse to start a war. Fortunately, he reacted quickly. On the one hand, he immediately evacuated all the imperial troops from the border to avoid being attacked. The Martin Liga people's revenge, on the other hand, was to quickly build a defense line in the southern part of the Order State.

Facing Martin's Tooth Army, whose number is several times, or even ten times, that of his own, it is impossible to defend across the board. The only way is to concentrate his forces and hold on to the nodes.

In the end, Reposti chose to concentrate the empire's forces at the node, which was Roanglink Fortress.

Roanglink, which means "rock" in the official language of the Order State, is the third largest fortress in the southern part of the Order State. It was once the headquarters of the 7th and 9th Southern Squadrons of the Knights Templar of the Order State. In addition to being extremely strong, there is another reason why Reposti decided to launch a blockade here.

That is in front of Roanglink Fortress. The surging river is the tributary extending southward from the largest river across the entire Order State. The materials and soldiers in the northern part of the Order State pass through this river. The rivers were constantly being transported from far and wide, which gave great help to the imperial army that hurriedly responded to the battle. A large amount of armaments flowed down the river and arrived at Roanglink within two days.

Otherwise, how could Roanglinco, as an important military town of the Order State, possess such a large number of important defensive weapons? However, the so-called man is not as good as God. While the continuous rainy season fully moistened the land in front of him, it also made the imperial army the most powerful. The long-range combat power of the Imperial Army was restricted. In such rain, the Imperial Army The power of Thor's explosion was greatly reduced, and the imperial crossbows that the empire swept across the continent were also affected by the humid weather. Almost no one dared to pull them out directly and shoot at the city. They could only choose to wait until the enemy climbed up the city wall before firing. Although It doesn't seem like much difference, but actually the difference is quite big.

If the imperial ballistae could be pushed directly to the battlements and fired, although it might not be able to kill many more people, the deterrent effect of the ballistae's shooting on the enemy was often more than that of Thor. The explosion of Thor was certainly terrifying, but the impact of the explosion was often A single shot draws in all the surrounding areas, but very few are directly blown to pieces. However, the ballista is different. Once it hits a human body, it will basically be torn apart, or the opponent will be beaten to pieces. Pieces of meat of different sizes exploded mixed with blood, or were lightly scratched, and most of the body was taken away. The bloody internal organs mixed with blood were splashed onto the nearby enemies. This kind of thing is shocking. The feeling of being completely powerless and the scene of such a tragic death will make even veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles feel frightened. No matter how high the military morale is, it will become low. No matter how brave the soldier is, he will unconsciously slow down. pace!

But this rainy season has caused the Empire's crossbows to lose their bowstrings. If they are soaked by rain again, they will be scrapped directly next time. In the Empire, this is not a problem, but this is the southern part of the Order State, even if it is shipped from the mainland No matter how fast the replacement products are, by the time they are shipped here, all the Martin Sharptooths may have arrived in the Holy Capital!

"Boom!"

The roar of the God of Thunder shook the sky. The God of Thunder, trailing a long black smoke tail, shot out from the fortress turret and landed on the front line of Martin's Toothmen in the distance. A red ball of light exploded in the mud. You can see Someone was swept in by the air waves and fire. The area where the explosion quickly turned into black smoke was finally extinguished by the rain falling from the sky.

go ahead! "The centurion in Martin's Tooth Army pulled out his saber and shouted to the soldiers. The rows of raised spears were like rolling wolves. People could not open their eyes with the cold light. Hundreds of black lines rolled in like waves.

This is Martin's sharp-toothed army advancing towards the fortress in a skirmish line. As far as the eye can see, at the end of the field of view, there are countless military flags of various colors and spears with colorful ribbons, stretched straight in the rain, a vast expanse of land. The battlefield was densely covered with more reserves, and the messengers galloped between the battle formations to organize their formations.

Although the Imperial Thor's shots seemed to be intimidating every time, in the face of such a large number of enemies, the casualties they could cause were extremely limited. Martin's fangs, which were pushing against the Thor, immediately fell to the ground when they were bombarded. After the explosion passes, immediately jump up and rush forward in a swarm. The crossbow arrows on the opposite city wall came like rain, hitting the large and small shields of the Martin Liga people's impact line, making bursts of clanging sounds. These were the trophies captured by the Martin Liga people from Harvey's army. It even has the emblem of Harvey Kingdom engraved on it, which looks nondescript.

Below the fortress, dense groups of Martin fang infantry are climbing the city wall.

"Quick, the first team retreats, the second team goes up!"

The imperial archers on the city top shot in a rotating posture, squatting behind the battlements to reload as quickly as possible, then stood up and shot directly towards the climbing crowd below the battlements. Immediately, there was a painful groan of an arrow being hit below. Then there was the sound of heavy objects falling, arrows rained down like rain, and people in the climbing Martin Tooth Army kept falling from high places.

Reposti looked at Martin's sharp-toothed army below with a stern expression. As the Imperial Thunder God roared, he saw streams of white smoke continuously spraying out from the huge fortress walls, like countless small flowers blooming on the opposite side in an instant. The walls of the fortress bloomed, and the marching queue dispersed as if it had been broken.

Logically speaking, the imperial cavalry has excellent combat power, so it should fight in the field, and Reposti is a newly rising star of the empire. In the battle of the Holy Capital, 30,000 imperial cavalry defeated a hundred thousand coalition troops in a field battle. It is enough to show the true nature of Reposti's field expert, but this time, Reposti's side was normal and adopted a decisive defensive posture. In fact, it is not that he has not tried to let cavalry guerrillas attack, hoping to slow down the advancement of Martin's Tooth Army, but the effect is not great. The number of Martin's Tooth Army is really amazing, and the cavalry strength of Martin's Tooth Army is Many, although the imperial cavalry has excellent combat power and is equipped with cavalry crossbows, which are powerful weapons for cavalry, this mainly refers to one-on-one situations.

This time, the disparity in strength between the two sides was too great. The number of Martin Liya soldiers was at least five times that of the Imperial side. After the Martin Liya cavalry found that they could not defeat the Imperial cavalry alone, they simply resorted to the tactic of a pack of wolves killing the tiger. To fight against the Imperial cavalry, Swarming forward, once the imperial cavalry is entangled, they cannot get rid of it. It was a dead end, and the number of imperial cavalry lost as a result had exceeded 3,000, and many of them were elite scouts in the imperial army. These elite light cavalry in the empire were as important as the eyes of the imperial army, because the losses of the scouts were too great. , Reposti has lost all contact outside the city

At this moment, facing the surging main force of Martin's Tooth Army and the enemy battle flags covering the ground, all he can do is to turn into a nail to attract the attention of Martin's Tooth Army as much as possible. One day is a day,

"Heavy ballistae ready!"

The imperial heavy infantry in heavy armor stood ready at the entrance of the battlements. Their sharp spears were pointed directly at the entrance of the city. They held white cloth strips in the hands of their heavy guns to ensure that even human blood could be poured out. When it flows along the barrel of the gun to where they are holding it, the gun will not slip.

"Kick-kick-kick"

A series of heavy bodies appeared in the city road, huge curved lines as wide as wings, two and a half meters in length, almost entirely made of metal, and it took eight to ten people to push it up. It was a powerful killer. It is an imperial crossbow vehicle specially used by the empire to defend the city. These imperial crossbows are used in field battles. The imperial crossbows used are not exactly the same. Because they were cast for city defense, they are bulkier. The back end has an iron hook for fixing, but the larger front end of the crossbow makes this city defense crossbow more powerful. Its lethality, the killing distance even reaches a terrifying five hundred meters,

A large bundle of metal-forged heavy arrow clusters were scattered on the ground. Several soldiers struggled to use levers to pull the bowstring of the crossbow. The crossbow arrows with sharp half-moon arcs on the front were put into the shooting slot. Every time they were fired, for The enemy is a psychological critical hit

The Martin Liga people did not expect that the Imperial Army would deploy so much heavy ordnance in Roanglink at first. As a result, General Martin Liga, who was in charge of the command, was shot by an Imperial ballista 300 meters away and was shot to death on the spot. The Martin Tooth Army command was so frightened that they retreated five hundred meters away. Although they could no longer sneak attack the opponent, these heavy ballistae vehicles were equally good at defending the city.

As long as Martin's sharp-toothed infantry crosses the city wall, they will see streaks of cold light hitting the position near the crenellations, bang bang bang! Human blood exploded as if being squeezed. The fragile human body, even if protected by iron armor, was torn apart and exploded alive.

At such a close range, the one-meter-and-a-half-meter fine iron crossbow arrows often penetrated the human body in front and then penetrated the human body in the back. The largest single crossbow arrow pierced four people together, and shot from the towering fortress. Falling down, the scene even caused the entire battlefield to become silent for a moment.

When the heavy arrows from the crossbows penetrated the pile of Martinliyas, the long spears of the heavy armored infantry of the empire were intensively pressed against the battlements of the city wall.

Blood bloomed like flowers. The long spears of the heavy armored infantry of the empire were so densely arranged that they could hardly get through the air. They poked at the armor and shields and made various noises. Some were crisp and some made people's teeth ache.

The soldiers who had just pounced on the battlements of the Martinliyas were immediately chopped into meat paste. The bloody smell filled the city wall. There was blood and minced meat in front and behind their feet. Broken limbs mixed with blood splashed on the bricks and stones of the fortress.

"Your Highness, it's not a good idea to fight like this. In two days, we have lost more than 8,000 people. Compared with our army fighting to the death here, the Sam army had crossed the Salt Warehouse River yesterday and entered the Silisbon Province." Under the military flag of the Ansili family, a general of the Ansili family watched an attack being beaten back. The pile of corpses under the city wall made them frown slightly. This time, they were speechless. Originally, in the name of revenge for the lord of the Ansili family, the Sam tribe, one of the three major tribes, also stood on the side of the Ansili family and sent 30,000 troops to participate in the war. However, just after entering the border, the Sam army immediately broke away from the main army and went straight to the most sturdy province of Silisbon in the south of the Church State. The other troops of the Ansili family, because they were under the banner of revenge, ended up fighting a deadly battle with the empire here!

Elite troops were sent up one by one, but they were riddled with holes by the various long-range weapons of the empire on the city wall. They finally climbed up to the top of the city and were driven down again. Such a scene made the Martin Liya generals below secretly shocked, and they were jealous of the Sam tribe's gang of cheap bastards in their hearts.
