Realm of Power

"attack"

As the soldiers from both armies shouted hoarsely, several black lines collided together in front of the wall of Ai Chemore.

The thundering sound of fighting resounded through the sky, and the bright red blood stained the earth. Countless war horses and corpses were piled on top of each other.

"Kill, kill, kill" the spear pierced the enemy's body and was pulled out with blood.

The Ruidian heavy infantry responsible for the encirclement were divided into three rows, holding thick and tall heavy shields, and pushed forward in a neat formation.

Like a shrinking triangle, it kept squeezing the Kujit army trying to break out from three directions.

"Assault shot" the resurrection bow string in the hands of the Kukit cavalry made a crashing sound. The horses that moved forward lined up and charged forward. Countless arrowheads slid across the sky and poured down on the heads of the Ruidian army.

"Bang Bang" arrowheads hit the shields in the hands of the heavy infantry, and bounced away with a crisp sound. Many soldiers in the back row were hit by arrowheads that fell from their heads, and let out shrill screams, bending down from the formation in pain. Falling down

At this moment, "the galloping war horses were like rapid arrow clusters, roaring into the first row of Ruidian's heavy infantry formation,

Countless sharp scimitars also chopped on the heads of the Ruidian soldiers, and blood spurted out from the headless chest.

"Charge over, charge over." A heavily armored General Ruidian waved his scimitar and rushed in with the second wave of cavalry behind him.

""Creak" The dense spears pierced the bodies of the Kugit cavalry at the same time, knocking the Kugit cavalry off their horses. The war horses neighed sadly and were overturned to the ground by more than a dozen heavy spears.

"Bump, bump." The entire row of Ruidian soldiers were knocked away by the Kugit cavalry who followed, including their shields. However, more spears came out from the back row, knocking the Kugit cavalry off their horses. ,

The entire front line was littered with human and horse corpses, and the bright red blood turned the dry ground into red mud.

Countless Kujit cavalry were like a fierce wave, constantly beating against the thick steel gun wall of the Ruidian people, and finally turned into broken black spots,

The way back was cut off, and the left-wing king who stayed behind in Aichemore decisively issued the order to break out. Tens of thousands of Kujit cavalry with sad and angry expressions collided with the Ruidian army gathered on three sides.

Either life or death, both the Left Guards and the Ruidian Army were forced into a dead end.

The battle has become a life-and-death battle from the very beginning.

On a plateau hill not far outside the city of Aichmore, Marshal Rui Erdian looked at the stalemate battle line with a solemn expression.

Although they were well prepared, the tenacity of the Kujit army still cost the Ruidian army a lot of money.

According to the original plan, the encircled Ruidian army only needed to stick to the outside of the city.

When the Kugits in the city panic because their escape route is cut off, and use their superior strength to press forward with the entire army, they will surely be able to seal their throats with a sword and completely crush the Kugits' will to fight.

However, Mount Rudato caught fire in advance, which ruined Berlant's carefully crafted plan.

The desperate breakthrough of the Kujit army caused the Ruidian army outside the city to enter a bloody battle in advance.

After all, these are Kujit troops

Naturally, Marshal Bertrand of Ruedian could not let go of the fat in his mouth. It would be a safe way to capture Aichmore first and then march to Turga.

Seeing the shattered Kugit cavalry line hit in front, Handsome Berlant turned around and asked a young general Ruidian standing next to him, "Nalinger, do you know what is the biggest advantage of the Kugits? "

Taknarlinge, the second son of the head of the powerful Takna Ventu clan in Kyoto, the top scorer in the Department of Strategy at Palavon College for two consecutive years, and the most valued student of Marshal Berlant.

As a commander, the battlefield is the best classroom.

This time Berlant specially brought him out of the academy to let him experience firsthand the war that would determine the hegemony of the entire north. This shows his preference for this top student.

"Students think the biggest advantage of the Kugits is speed." The young man was stunned for a moment and responded respectfully.

"The Kugit light cavalry that comes and goes like the wind is the nightmare of all enemies. As long as in this vast grassland, no one can be an opponent of the Kugit wolf pack tactics."

"Well, you are right." Berlant nodded happily. "The prairie is vast. The high mobility of the Kujit cavalry makes them the masters of this prairie. Therefore, if you want to defeat them, you must first Beat their speed”

"What the teacher said was that Nalinger had a trace of regret on his face and said, "This time the teacher used Ai Chemore as a bait to nail the main Kugit cavalry here. This tactic is not without its ingenuity, but it's a pity that Kugit The Gith people withdrew the royal court cavalry, the most adept at fighting among them, in advance, otherwise our army would have been able to conquer the north in one battle."

"Oh, the fact that you can see this only means that you are just qualified." Berlant nodded slightly at Naringer's answer.

"If I tell you, there is a clever opponent opposite us. He not only guessed our intention to burn Mount Rudato in advance, but also turned against us. With only one fire, we had to face 9 How can you still be as relaxed as you are now despite being driven to a dead end by a pack of crazy wolves?”

"This... shouldn't be possible." Naringer looked stunned, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his determined face.

He had also heard about the mysterious fire at Mount Ludato two days ago. Because it was a matter of top secret, Berlant did not tell him about the plan for Mount Ludato.

Now when he suddenly heard the teacher mention it, Naringer suddenly realized,

"You are still too young. There are many things that cannot be taken just one step." Berlant saw Naringer's expression and knew that he, the student he valued most, was still a little too young in some places.

He couldn't help but have a slight look on his eyebrows, shook his head and said, "One who can calculate one step can only be regarded as a qualified commander, a true commander-in-chief. Before the war breaks out, he has planned everything for the enemy.

Otherwise, we will be in the same situation as we are now, being controlled by others.”

"Ah" Berlant's words shocked Naringer, and he said with a surprised expression, "Teacher, you are the famous first general of our Ruidian. Does it mean that even the teacher can't defeat that person?"

"Although I don't want to admit it, the facts are there." Berlant pointed helplessly at the noisy battlefield in the distance, and said with excitement, "Have you seen that we and the Kugits in front of us who are fighting to the death with us, It's like two puppets whose strings have been pulled, but we both know it, but we have to continue acting according to the strings pulled. This person is indeed more terrible than me."

Outside Turga

The green grassland seems to have no end in sight,

Several rolling hills blocked the fat man's sight.

If there wasn’t the faintly visible city at the end of the line of sight,

Fatty simply couldn't imagine where this overwhelming green would extend.

It is said that the ancestors of the Kugit people came from a foreign continent. I wonder if the end of this grassland is also a foreign continent.

When the Maomo family's caravan passed by a remote wilderness, the fat man took the opportunity to let go of the left guard He Lunya, and told this silly girl,

Tell her not to go to Aichmore, but to return directly to the Zuowei tribe camp in the west.

If the main force is trapped in the Zuowei tribe of Aichemore, they will inevitably suffer a bloody purge from the royal court.

There is no room for compromise in the cruel struggle for the throne, and eradication is the most basic method.

Fatty didn't believe that the Kugit Royal Court would be so kind.

If you want to leave a glimmer of hope, the only way is to continue heading west and hide in the inaccessible western wilderness.

After traveling for 3 consecutive days

Fatty finally saw the shadow of the legendary Cloud City,

On the vast horizon in the distance, a towering mountain peak reaches into the sky. Countless white houses are built on the mountain, layer upon layer, extending to the misty heights.

The gathered caravans gradually dispersed outside Yunzhong City, with deliveries coming and going to trading stations.

Mao Mowenlis also brought his daughter to say goodbye to the fat man. The Maomo family has its own trading station in Yunzhong City, and Maomo Wenlis's goods have to be transported to the family's cargo station.

Maomo Wenlis sincerely invited Fatty to his family's trading station, and promised to introduce Fatty to the high-level officials of the Maomo family in Yunzhong City.

The fat man refused because he had something to do. For this reason, the fat man was almost scorched by Maomo Allen's plaintive eyes.

After Momo Wenlis dragged his daughter away, a Samorian guard disguised as a mercenary came in from the door and placed a ring engraved with a white thorn pattern on the fat man's table respectfully. ,

The fat man picked up the ring and asked, "Have they done everything?"

Konoe responded with a respectful look, "Yes, Sir Hu Keqili has contacted the Commercial Alliance branch in the city, and in accordance with the instructions of the Grand Duke, submitted a submission to the Kugit Court in the name of the Wikiya Mission. In response to the request to open trade routes throughout the territory, the Kugits have promised to start talks in three days,"

"Oh, so fast." The fat man's eyebrows twitched. Thinking of Wang Ting's vicious plan, he couldn't help but said solemnly, "Do you know who is the leader of this negotiation?"

"I heard that he is the newly appointed foreign affairs officer of the royal court, Duo Weiyan," Konoe replied.

"Duo Weiyan, this is quite unexpected." The fat man looked stunned for a moment and muttered in a low voice, "Does this plan have anything to do with this kid? Probably not, it's just a good time to test it out."

Fatty was also disgusted by Wang Ting's sudden move. It was originally a plan to save people, but it turned out to be a means of eradicating dissidents. Whoever fell on it would be angry.

"Give this to Hu Keqili." The fat man thought for a while, then took out a recommendation document from his arms and handed it to Konoe.

"This is the best certificate issued by the Business Alliance. It tells him to talk as he wants and to show off his posture. With this certificate, all the goods of the Business Alliance can be controlled. It is best to let the entire Yunzhong City You know, we Wikiia sent a trade mission "v
