Realm of Power

The reinforcements of the Sun Fortress did not step into the trap he had carefully laid, which really surprised King Owitt of Ruila. He did not expect such a change in the battle of ambush reinforcements.

"It has been confirmed that the commander of the reinforcements of the Sun Fortress is Ishakrnan, who slaughtered my 20,000 Ruila youths. This is the captured enemy flag." The messenger cavalry who came to report took out a piece of the Bion flag mixed with the smell of blood and mud from his hand, and handed it to the attendant who came over with a respectful look. Owitt's face couldn't help but change at this moment.

"The leader is Ishakrnan!" Hearing this name, the eyes of the Ruila generals were full of blood and anger. They came to avenge the 20,000 Ruila soldiers. Hearing that it was Ishakrnan who led the army, the generals' eyes immediately turned red. 20,000 Ruila youths were killed in the Three Rivers Land. This collective death in battle has not happened for more than 20 years.

Since the Ruila Army defeated the Bion people in the Three Rivers Land and became the leader of Central Europe, the Three Rivers Land represents the glory of the Ruila people, the glorious years of the kingdom's rise, and the countless Ruila soldiers who have fought one after another. Even on the Ruila flag, the peach-shaped ruby ​​red on the hilt of the maple sword emblem representing the royal family represents the Three Rivers Land. This is the battlefield that the Ruila soldiers are most proud of. It was this Ishaknan who not only tarnished the glory of the Three Rivers Land, but also did this right under the noses of the Ruila Ruila Army! This is a naked slap in the face for the Ruila soldiers!

In this revenge, no matter what compensation the Bion Kingdom will give in the end, this person must die!

"Your Majesty, please allow your subordinates to capture this bastard alive."

The generals of Ruila asked King Owitt for battle. Ishaknan, hearing this name that brought discredit to the Ruila soldiers, Sabov, the commander of the Fifth Army of Ruila, stood up with an angry look. He knelt on one knee in front of King Owitt with a firm face, shook his hands into a fist and placed it on his chest, and said in a concentrated voice, "The spirits of my 20,000 Ruila youth army are watching us from behind. If we let this person escape, how can we call it a war of revenge? Your Majesty, please give me 2,000 cavalry. If it doesn't work, 1,000 cavalry will do. Even if I fight with this body of more than 100 pounds, I will definitely nail Ishaknan to death before the main force arrives!"

"Enough, one Ishaknan makes you forget what you are here for?'

King Owitt of Ruila glared with a sullen face. Under the sharp eyes of their master, the generals lowered their heads and dared not look at each other. They came to attack the Sun Fortress. Although they claimed to be It was a war of revenge, but everyone knew that this war was not only about the face of the Kingdom of Ruila, but also about the life and death of at least 300,000 people in Ruila in the future. The reason why Ruila deployed all its troops in this war of revenge was that there was only one real goal, that is, the Three Rivers Land, which was rich in water and grass and was known as the most fertile hills and fields. As the only area where the three major river systems in Central Europe and Barrow converged, the three rivers irrigated the land here, which was fertile and flat. It was also a large swamp in the generally dry environment of Central Europe and Barrow, and a natural granary. More than a hundred years ago, the Hungarians entered Central Europe and Barrow, and after suffering heavy losses from the Bion people, they turned to the Three Rivers Land for recuperation. They were attracted by the fertility of the Three Rivers Land, but they did not expect to be ambushed by the Ruila people in one fell swoop. In the end, they could only lick their wounds and flee eastward. After that, the Three Rivers Land became a battlefield for the Ruila people and the Bion people to fight each other, so that this best granary buried thousands of people for decades. The corpses were covered with wild grass as tall as a person. Looking around, all you can see is desolate and ruined. The Ruila people had thought about developing the Three Rivers Land, but because of the decades of war with the Bion people, they had been fighting back and forth intermittently, and they were simply unable to develop the Three Rivers Land. It was not until more than a decade ago that the Ruila people completely defeated the Bion people in the Three Rivers Land and drove the Bion people out of the Three Rivers, and only then did they truly take control of the Three Rivers Land into their own hands. However, the Bion side then changed its strategy of fighting for the Three Rivers in the field, and began to rely on the Sun Fortress and use the means of building stronghold cities to nibble away at the Three Rivers Land bit by bit, constantly migrating refugees to these occupied areas and developing these areas. Over the past decade, they have actually built more than a dozen stronghold cities in the Three Rivers Land, with a population of 500,000 to 600,000. The grain harvested from these areas each year accounts for more than a quarter of the grain production in Bion. Even so, the Bion people are still not satisfied. They use these strongholds to... Small groups of troops were constantly sent to harass the settlements of the Ruila people in the Three Rivers Land, burning, killing, and looting, squeezing the space of the Ruila people, leaving the Ruila people with only the Three Rivers Land as a natural granary, but unable to gain any benefit, and only letting it grow weeds there.

When the Ruila Kingdom was at its peak, King Owitt was thinking about how to lead Central Europe Barrow to independence from the shadow of the East and West forces, and did not care about the little benefit from the Three Rivers Land. But now it is different. The Central Europe Barrow Alliance led by the Ruila Kingdom was first defeated by the Empire, and then there was a Hungarian rebellion that shook the entire Central Europe Barrow. The continuous heavy blows have caused the national strength of the Ruila Kingdom to decline sharply. Several provinces in the south, which used to be the main grain-producing areas in the country, have been trampled into a wasteland by the Hungarian cavalry. The domestic economy and agriculture have shrunk significantly. In addition, the national tax revenue has been mortgaged to the Empire for fifty years. If no new sources of income and grain production areas can be found, the Ruila Kingdom will have no chance of revival within fifty years.

In this case, the Land of Three Rivers is undoubtedly the best hope to solve the current predicament of the Kingdom of Rila. The Land of Three Rivers is located to the east of the Kingdom of Rila, bordering the Kingdom of Biang, the Kingdom of Sith, and the Principality of Sulav. In addition to the rivers crisscrossing the area, , in addition to fertile land, it is also a trade route connecting several countries in Central Europe. Once the hub is developed, it will not only solve the current food shortage dilemma of the Kingdom of Rila, but also open up a financial source in business. The tax revenue of the Kingdom of Rila has been mortgaged to the empire, but that refers to the original financial resources and taxes. The empire does not have the power to tax the financial resources of newly developed areas.

Owitt, the tycoon of the generation, overwhelmed two-thirds of the troops of the Kingdom of Rila. Through loans and mortgages, he obtained a million war funds from the Imperial Bank. How could he just be seeking revenge? Therefore, the first thing the Ruila Army did when they broke through the border defenses was to uproot all the strongholds built by the Biang people in the Land of Three Rivers. In the past, this approach, which was almost massacre-like, would have been criticized by other countries, but now there is revenge. Under this guise, even if the Rila people killed all the Biangs in these strongholds, the countries would not say a word. The Biangs attacked the returning Rila Youth Army and killed all 20,000 of them. , this alone is enough,

In war, defeating and defeating the enemy falls within the normal scope

But if it is to kill them all, that is another matter. The Empire was called cruel by Obarro because the Empire had a record of completely annihilating the opponent in several wars. Until the Battle of Bavaria, they killed them all in one fell swoop. Three hundred thousand Feishan elites have brought the empire's reputation for cruelty to its extreme.

If the Biang people only ambushed and defeated the 20,000 Riela youth army, the countries would only say that the Biang people's fighting methods were despicable and they could not win with force. But if they killed all 20,000 people, that would be another matter. That's 20,000 living people, not 20,000 pigs. Even if 20,000 pigs are running around, they want something. It is also difficult to kill everyone with just one breath. The Biang people killed all the 20,000 Riela troops. This can only show that the Biang people had planned this ambush for a long time and remained silent afterwards. If it were not for the Biang people and Luo When the news of the alliance between the Kingdom of Perth came out, the countries may not necessarily associate this matter with the Biang people.

With such a precedent, it is not surprising that the Rila people launched a cruel revenge. If the Rila people want to develop the land of Three Rivers, they must defeat the Sun Fortress. Otherwise, when the Biang people recover, they will still be defeated by the Sun Fortress. Driving into Sanhe again, using the step-by-step strategy, all the efforts of the Ruila people were in vain. This is the biggest problem that the Ruila Kingdom has to face.

The Kingdom of Rila and the Kingdom of Biang have been at war for decades, and no one knows who the other is!

Historically, when two armies met in a field battle, the Biang people could not defeat the tenacious Rila people. However, once the Rila army's attack momentum slowed down, the Biang people could often turn the situation around with subsequent efforts. The Cirila Army was also caught by surprise and seized the opportunity. In just a few days, they penetrated the Biang people's border defense line and defeated the Biang people. All the more than ten strongholds that the people have painstakingly built over the past ten years have been pulled out, but once the Rilla army evacuates, the Biang people will soon build settlement strongholds again in these destroyed locations, which have been occupied by the Biang people. After more than ten years of development, how could the Biang people give up, and this was after more than 200,000 people starved to death due to lack of food last winter?

The Rila people took a fancy to the fertility of the land of three rivers, and so did the Biang people.

In fact, even if the Rila people do not take the initiative to attack, the Biang Kingdom will launch a full-scale offensive against the Land of Three Rivers this year. Both kingdoms, without exception, are interested in the food production of the Land of Three Rivers and the Land of Three Rivers. Its status as a commercial hub shows the importance of the Land of Three Rivers to the fate of the kingdom. This was originally just a revenge war for the Rila people, but it has become a major confrontation between the two kingdoms that has dominated the national destiny for thirty years.

Staring at the Biang Army that once again disappeared into the black night, Ishakelnan breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know that if King Owitt of Rila hadn't been awake, he would have been there at this moment. It was a Rilla cavalry that came up to kill her. As long as she showed any sign of being entangled, Rilla The main force of 100,000 people will rush over quickly, eating him and the so-called 40,000 reinforcements in one go, and then turn around and attack the Sun Fortress again, instead of letting all the arrangements on Rilla's side be like now. It was a fist that had accumulated huge power, and it was as painful as hitting the empty space.

What Ishakel said is correct. For the current Rilla Army, the longer it spends in front of the Sun Fortress, the more unfavorable the situation will be for the Rilla Army, because before arriving at the Sun Fortress, the Rilla Army has already It took two days, two days, neither long nor short. It’s short, but for a raid, two days is too long. Time is the biggest weakness of the military operation of the Kingdom of Ruila. Since it is a raid, it should be burned like a raging fire. After sweeping the area, it should be quickly evacuated. How could he be like now, still thinking about attacking the Sun Fortress! To put it bluntly, from the moment the Ruila Army stormed the Sun Fortress, Ishakelnan believed that the Ruila Army had already failed.

After all, Ishakelnan is just a general. When it comes to how his gaze can be compared with that of the cunning King Owitt of Rila. In the eyes of Ishakelnan, this is a battle of revenge, but in the eyes of King Rila, this is a battle of revenge. A life-and-death struggle for Ruila

"Have our reinforcements arrived? Why do I feel that the Rila people want to run away?" Above the Sun Fortress, Marquis Ankexi, who was in charge of guarding, looked at the Rila army below that was slowly evacuating, and said to himself in confusion. Talking to himself, the siege battle ahead almost made Marquis Ankoshi despair. , who knew that the Ruila people suddenly withdrew, and there seemed to be faint shouts of killing coming from the east direction. From the analysis of various signs of the Ruila army, Marquis Ankexi believed that reinforcements must have arrived, and the number was still large. Quite a few, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to frighten the army of 100,000 Ruila and directly order the evacuation.

"Sir, the order from the Ministry of Military Affairs was just sent."

At this moment, his attendant ran over from behind panting, holding a sealed letter in his hand. When he heard that it was an order from the Ministry of Military Affairs, Marquis Ankexi looked very ugly, "Sending an order at this time? The one from the Ministry of Military Affairs Those bastards who are gesturing on the map, do you know what I need most? The Rila people are already approaching the city. I don’t need any orders. I want reinforcements, reinforcements!" Marquis Ankexi was furious and received the letter with a livid face. He came over, glanced at the content above, and whispered angrily, "What are these bastards thinking? I only have 40,000 people. It's good if I can keep the fortress from falling. How can I be allowed to spend 100,000 Rui?" Isn’t this a joke that the Lajun have been holding back at the Sun Fortress for five days? The Riela people want to evacuate themselves, so why should I go out and try to persuade them to stay? These guys really think that just by pointing at the map, the Riela people will completely obey. Arrangements for them? "

"Sir, please be careful what you say."

The attendant next to him hurriedly pulled him, and pointed to the corner of the order book with an ugly expression. The heraldic pattern on it made the originally angry Marquis Ankoxi take a breath of air and his lips trembled slightly." Your Majesty the King? "Marquis Ankoshi's pupils were wide open, as if he had been scratched by a cat.

It was a round purple pattern that looked like a purple ball. The ball, that was the emblem of the sun, was the emblem of the Biang royal family. The arrogance of the Biang people not only created the nation characteristics, and also created a strict hierarchical system. The Biang royal family likens itself to the Sun Family of Barro in Central Europe, and the Sun Fortress represents not only a military fortress, but also the meaning of the Biang royal family that will never fall.

Putting away the order book respectfully, Marquis Ankexi waved his hand in annoyance and gritted his teeth. What is this? There were originally insufficient troops because the Ruila people broke in too fast. If they hadn't been taken in by the front, they would have collapsed from the front. The border troops who came down, Sun Fortress probably didn't even have 30,000 troops, and looking at the Rila Army, the king was here in person, and the most powerful Imperial Guards must have arrived, as well as a large number of them who had experienced fighting against the empire. Fighting the Huns We have elite veterans, and if we are well prepared, taking down the Sun Fortress in a surprise attack is not an empty talk. There has been no war in the Sun Fortress for more than ten years, and no one thinks that the enemy will attack the Sun Fortress on weekdays. The armaments are weak, and even the city walls The catapults on it are still old from more than ten years ago. If you pull it a little, it will rattle like an old man. The garrison has long since been transformed from elite troops into ordinary troops with average combat power.

The real elite troops were either transferred to the frontier army or the king's army. Only those who were not wanted by both sides were stuffed into their own Sun Fortress. Everyone just wanted to get some qualifications and then find their own troops. Family, why did they let themselves run into a big attack by the Rila people? This time everyone fought desperately to contain the Rila people's attack. They were just waiting for these plague gods to leave, but the king asked himself to hold back five Rila people. Damn it, aren't you kidding yourself?

How to drag? Do you want to stand on top and shout to the Ruila people not to leave?

"Pass my order to the 7th and 11th teams to prepare for attack, and at the same time, let the 10th Heavy Armor Squadron be ready."

Marquis Ankexi took a deep breath and said this as if he had exhausted all his strength. The seventh team and the eleventh team are the only two standing assault cavalry units in the fortress, and they are also the only ones in the fortress that can take the initiative. With the power to attack, if he didn't come up with some bait, how could the Ruila people have been squatting under the Sun Fortress. The so-called best Defense is always an offense. Although the Sun Fortress is extremely strong, it also has shortcomings. For example, the Sun Fortress is too long, a full six or seven miles in length. Once danger arises, an elite force must be available. As a reserve force, whenever a problem arises, the troops will immediately line up to fill the gap. This is the 10th Heavy Armor Troop.

The tenth heavy armored force pressed the formation, and the cavalry of two squadrons were used as the blade. Although the number was not large, the two squadrons were only 1,500 cavalry, but the victory was due to the elite and capable. Marquis Ankosi was ready to touch a Rila The king's tiger butt and the pride of the Rila people are famous all over the world. The Rila people failed to attack the Sun Fortress, but they were stabbed by themselves. It would be weird if the Rila people on the opposite side didn't go crazy!

"Sir, we are ready." The adjutant came over from a distance.

Fifteen hundred Biang light cavalrymen were decorated with streamers on their heads. Behind the fortress gate, they were like a black cloud. The cold light of their armor was soaked by the rain, and the bonfire at the city gate reflected a coquettish light, silent. In the atmosphere, no one spoke, only the white smoke breathed by the war horses. Marquis Ankexi came to the city gate in heavy armor. After hesitating, he raised his right hand high. The queue below was solemn. Suddenly, the raised hand pressed down hard, and Marquis Ankosi said in a deep voice, "The Biang people will never surrender!"

"The Beans never surrender!"

There was a low and undulating sound, and the fortress gate in front slowly opened with a friction sound. In the dark night, teams of Bion light cavalry with resolute faces drove out of the gate corridor that was 11 meters thick. In the darkness, they began to disperse like a silent pack of wolves. They started to move slowly, little by little, and gradually accelerated, getting faster and faster. Finally, they started to run at full speed 300 meters away from the evacuating Ruila army. The sound of horse hooves like a torrent finally began to penetrate the rain curtain flying in the sky, and the sound was like thunder. The evacuated Ruila troops in front, the queue was black and overflowed the entire flat land, and there was no end to it.
