Realm of Power

"Can the other people in Raging Eye Castle spare their lives?"

With a haggard face, Atrice walked into the black-haired emperor's military tent and begged the black-haired young man for mercy, hoping to bypass the remaining people in the Angry Eye Castle. Some of these people were subordinates of the Yoshizawa family. When she saw the Yoshizawa family Suicide, these people immediately surrendered to the Imperial Army that entered the city, and the Imperial Army handed over these prisoners to the Kentam family for disposal.

"Spare them?"

The black-haired young man glanced over with cold eyes, which made Atrice feel guilty. The black-haired young man shrugged his shoulders and continued, "Of course it's okay. Since I've given everyone to you, it's up to you how to deal with them." thing, but one thing you must be clear about is that you got this at the cost of you, the future head of the Kentam family, I can I can promise you this time, but from now on, you will not have the opportunity to make demands to the empire, and the empire will not interfere with Kentam’s family affairs again. The imperial army cannot always be in Raging Eye Castle, but I do. I really hope that when the time comes, those who have been forgiven because of your mercy will let the Kentam family go because of your mercy!”

Atrice's pretty face was silent, her white jade-like teeth biting her lips tightly.

She knew this was impossible. The Alliance lost 5,000 people at Fort Angry Eyes, and was slapped hard by the Kentam family in front of all the major families in the south. It could be said that they had lost all face. Now it was because The imperial army is pressing here, and the alliance does not dare to make any move. Once three days later, the empire If the army withdraws, the Alliance will definitely take crazy revenge. There were originally more than 8,000 people in the Fort of Angry Eyes. Under the bombardment of the Empire's Thunder God, almost half of Fort Angmu was blown into ruins, except for the thousand who were held hostage by the Bai Ze family. In addition to many people, more than 3,000 other Angmu Fort people were killed and countless injured.

This is an indelible blood feud

"I'm sorry, I will go back immediately to execute these rebels!" Atrice straightened her body and took a deep breath, knowing how wrong she was.

Look at the red eyes of the prisoners of Angry Eyes Castle when they look at you, and you know that your plea for pardon is meaningless against this kind of hatred. Just as the black-haired young man said, when the time comes, because he will be pardoned by Angry Eyes Fort, He will definitely be the first to attack Kentam's house. Feng was even crazier than the previous Bai Ze family, and the one who did the greatest harm by bypassing the Angry Eyes Fort might be the empire. The empire sent troops for the Kentam family. As a result, as soon as the crisis for the Kentam family was resolved, the Angry Eyes Fort was immediately destroyed. Pardon, then what’s the point of the empire sending troops? No wonder, the strong disappointment in the tone of the black-haired young man

"Seeing as you are not completely hopeless, let me help you one more time." The black-haired young man's eyes flickered, and he let out a long sigh, picked up a piece of paper on the table and handed it to Art across from him. Liz,

"Where did this come from?" Atrice curiously reached out and took it, her eyes swept over it, her pretty face was shocked. This is a list, with many red and black circles drawn on it, and everything written on it is Although not all of the major families in the south, there are still more than one-third.

"This is the list of the major southern families that are most likely to take refuge if the Southern Alliance is shaken. It was provided by Anclo. As the former Princess of Hérault, she was once responsible for the actions and investigations against the major southern families. The Héro royal family had sent people to secretly communicate with these families, and had obtained promises from some families that as long as the Southern Alliance wavered, they would join the royal family's camp." The black-haired young man smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. With a slight glance, she told the origin of this list, and even Atrice took a breath of air-conditioning. The Royal Family of Hérault had spent decades infiltrating the southern part of Hérault, installing exiled nobles, and relying on the help of southern adventurers. In the name, many people have been recruited from various major families. This list is definitely a collection of decades of hard work by the Eero royal family, but they were all given to the black-haired young man by Anklo. What is the identity of the black-haired young man!

"What do you want me to do?"

Atrice's delicate body trembled, and the hand holding the list felt as hot as fire. From the words of the black-haired young man, she could vaguely feel the suffocation of the bow string being stretched. There was no turning back when the bow was opened. Since she was willing The Tam family has broken with the Alliance, so it will be difficult to coexist. Either the Alliance is over, or the Kentam family is driven out of the south. There is no other choice in between.

The black-haired young man seemed invisible to the shock in Atrice's eyes. He smiled slightly and said, "I have asked the Imperial Army in the central part to put pressure. The southern side can currently bring back 5,000 people from the central part. This is the limit. Now they are all dead in Fort Angry Eyes. In the next few days, the Southern Alliance will be completely unable to fight against the Kentam family. In other words..." Black-haired The young man's voice paused, and his eyes became as sharp as a knife. "Whether you can use this opportunity to destroy the Confederacy at once depends on whether you, Atrice, have the courage. If I were you, I would immediately ask The families on the list sent envoys to the Kentam family, promising that as long as the Kentam family became the new royal family, they would be willing to share the governance of the south with them."

"In this way... the other party will join the camp of my Kentam family?" Atrice said to herself in astonishment. Although she believed that the black-haired young man would not talk nonsense, she was definitely taking it for granted. Kentam It can be said that the crisis in the Tam family has just been resolved. These families will feel that the alliance is wavering, but they will not take refuge in the Kentam family.

"Of course the black-haired young man knew what Atrice was thinking, and he pressed the list on the table with a smile. "Don't forget, the Kentam family now is not just the Kentam family, but also the empire! The empire has even sent troops for the Kentam family, so the empire’s military strength is the military strength of the Kentam family! "Of course it was impossible before, but if the Kentam family shows enough strength, it won't be a problem. According to Anklo, most of these families have resentments or are uneasy about the status quo because of some old things in the Southern Alliance. Want to get more wealth and land, and even the Eero royal family The agitation for dissension was mixed in, but because of the original agreement and the existence of the alliance, they had to endure it. The South is not as monolithic as it seems. Even if it was once monolithic, eighty years have passed and people have changed. After two or three generations, it’s a joke to still talk about the unity of the top and bottom.”

The imperial army moved in, but the Kentam family’s camp was obviously not enough.

In just half a day, the imperial flags were flying everywhere in the plains, valleys, and high slopes southeast of Angmu Fort. Behind the troops were patches of white tents. The tents stretched eastward along the river, and above the river. , another fully loaded Imperial Navy transport ship. One day later, the Imperial army marched eastwards by land and water, naturally flying the flag of the Kentam family.

Atrice personally led the city and quickly captured Yejie City by land, which was the pass east of Kentam's house. Ali, the lord of Yejie City, abandoned the city and fled.

At the same time, the Imperial Navy fleet sailed along the large river into Lake Duolun. The lord of Duolun Lake area, Ruwa Muli, was frightened when he saw the masts of the Imperial warships and the rows of dark Imperial Thor cannon muzzles floating all over the lake. raised a white flag,

The restrictions on the expansion of the Kentam family to the east were shattered. As a victor, Atrice divided the army into three groups, with 4,000 men in each group, and drove directly into the hinterland of the Confederacy. After the waterway was opened, , the Kentam family's land march was even more invincible. The southern lords who were just watching the excitement along the way were frightened when they saw the sea of ​​imperial flags. Their legs were weak, and some families chose to join the Kentam family camp under the sword of the empire. Four days later, the army captured Milton, the important southern material town, and began to encircle the city of Roshni, which has the hub of the southern technical secondary school. In the following two days , the Kentam family began to attack the surrounding areas of Roshni City, rapidly sweeping through the surrounding areas of Roshni City at the rate of two to three small and medium-sized territories per day.

In Po Valley City, the hot wind under the sun blew through the hall, and the alliance princes were in dead silence in the conference hall.

"Please also ask the alliance to send troops to rescue immediately, otherwise our city of Roshni may not be able to hold on for long." A middle-aged noble with an anxious look, his eyes red, looked angrily at the several big families sitting at the top, and said what he had just said The information about Roshni City that was sent was placed on the table. The faces of the other southern princes all looked extremely sad.

What was a sure thing turned out to be overturned. As the largest force, the 5,000 alliance troops, instead of forcing the Kentam family into a desperate situation of betrayal and separation, were actually killed by the Kentam family and the imperial army under the Fort of Angry Eyes. It can be used as an excuse for the Kentam family to launch a full-scale counterattack. To describe it as swift and violent, the Kentam family's subsequent counterattack was too fast. In the name of the unfairness of the alliance, with the 20,000 imperial army as the backbone, they were invincible and unstoppable. When the alliance received The news is that it is already the afternoon of the third day, and the imperial army has arrived at Roshni City.

At this time, the southern princes were also confused. How the imperial army passed by, no one knew!

The city of Roshni is located at the core of the southern Erault. It is also an important place for the southern coalition to store supplies, and it is only eighty miles away from the city of Po Valley. The Kentam family's siege of Roshni city is equivalent to cutting off the southern coalition at once. Logistics supplies, although the 200,000 Southern Allied Forces were partly reduced due to the breakaway of the southern aristocratic factions

After returning to Po Valley City, the alliance disbanded all its weak logistics troops. Now there are about 70,000 troops on the front line in Po Valley City. Someone immediately said with red eyes, "We must send troops to Roshni immediately." , otherwise once the Kentam family defeats Roshni, not only will the army’s retreat be cut off, but the entire Southern Alliance will be shaken!”

"If Luoshi City falls, I'm afraid Bo Valley City won't be able to defend it."

The situation was so severe that the southern lords stopped arguing

The imperial army in the central part has been pressed to less than thirty miles away from Po Valley City, and the southern nobles who have taken refuge are even more willing to serve as vanguards. The imperial army directly bypasses the flooded area, although the southern princes are still in Po Valley City. At this moment, the 70,000-strong army dare not mobilize even a single bit easily, because no one can We know when the imperial army will arrive at Pogu City. Although Pogu City is known as the first strong wall in the south and has blocked the ambitions of the Eero royal family for decades, this kind of glory is no longer suitable for the current era. The entire Obarro Everyone knows that no fortress dares to be called a strong wall in front of the imperial army.

In the end, the alliance was dominated by eight princes, and assembled a rescue force of 30,000 people. They marched in formation with heads held high, with colorful war flags flying over their heads one after another, with various patterns painted on them. : axe, black sheep, flying eagle, bull horn, tiger, sword... In order to rush on the road, various armies marched day and night without even setting up outposts or flanking defense troops.

Before they even got close to Rosh City, they were attacked by the Imperial Army.

The first person to suffer the misfortune was Count Kaslavie. The imperial cavalry suddenly rushed out on the road, like the wind sweeping the yellow sand, and a large group of cavalry swept across the sky and the ground. The cavalrymen looked stern, capable and brave. They wore light armor to protect their chest and limbs. They wore the red cloak of the imperial central army on the outside, and galloped on their horses. The wide cloak fluttered in the wind, like the wings of a falcon. They carried a crossbow and a quiver on their backs, and a slightly curved imperial sword tied around their waists. Even when they launched a charge, the ranks remained in order. One team after another, Count Kaslavie's troops who were still on the march were tired and exhausted. They were defeated at the first contact. Count Kaslavie himself was injured and scattered, and more than 4,000 infantrymen were defeated. After defeating Caslavie's army, the imperial cavalry ignored the fleeing soldiers who fled all over the mountains and plains. Instead, the troops quickly turned around and rushed to the flanks of other nearby allied armies before the allied army closed in.

"Kill!" The overwhelming shouts of killing, seeing the aggressive black-armored cavalry, Count Brouck, who was on the attacked flank, became timid before the battle even started. He knew that his tired soldiers were no match for the imperial cavalry, so he did not dare to attack them. He just lined up on the road and waited for help. However, the imperial cavalry's impact was so terrible that they split the infantry's spear formation in just one encounter and crushed Brouck's cavalry like ashes. The Earl's infantry was cut in half. The infantry on Buruk's left wing collapsed first. The front team was killed in a mess, and the rear team was also collapsed by the momentum. The horses were galloping, followed by horse trampling, sword slashing, and spear piercing. The relentless pursuit was like a hurricane, killing the allied army so much that they couldn't lift their swords or breathe. The Empire's black-armored cavalry swept through like a storm, leaving only corpses everywhere. The defeated soldiers were torn into pieces, panicked like a group of rats, and burrowed into the bushes and the woods in a desperate attempt to avoid the whirlwind of death behind them.

In a state of extreme embarrassment, seeing the defeat of their allies, the other rescue troops dared not move forward.

"The Imperial Army has surrounded the perimeter, waiting for us to fall into its trap."

"Roshni is the Empire's bait."

"There must be an Imperial Army waiting for us ahead, we can't move forward."

Inexplicable panic spread among the soldiers, and the princes were in a panic. Rescue became waiting for help. The news that the unfortunate Earl Buruk was captured alive also exploded among the southern princes. More than 30,000 people had just approached Roshni, and before they even knew the strength of the Imperial Army, more than 2,000 people were killed or injured, and even a prince was captured.
