The Face Changing Warrior
Chapter 70: [Before the war]
When the first dawn of the morning slowly shone on the earth, the wilderness in front of the wall of the Watt Fortress seemed so calm and peaceful. Looking at this scene, no one would have thought that it was here. Just last night, there was a tragic killing. Tens of thousands of people shed their blood here, and tens of thousands of people screamed and wailed here. But now, only the bare land with red faintly faintly reminiscent of the massacre last night.
The flag of the thorns flower on the wall is still standing, but the soldiers standing on the wall are already tired and confused. At midnight last night, the Great Moon Kingdom suddenly launched a fierce attack on Watt Fortress, and the battle continued until dawn. After the two sides paid the price of thousands of casualties, the Great Moon Kingdom finally retreated.
At this moment, the soldiers above the city wall did not sleep all night, looking blankly at the barracks of the Great Moon Kingdom in the wilderness. In the unconscious barracks, those alien barbarians in furs and long machetes have begun to form a team. "It seems that today is another fierce battle..." Some veterans couldn't help sighing in their hearts, and glanced at the sun that has just risen in the sky, wondering if they can survive today.
The original strong and tall city wall has long been full of barbarians. The black smoke and red blood stained the city wall into a frightening gray and death color. The city gate was smashed in the battle last night. , Although the soldiers in the city had urgently reinforced them with huge woods before dawn, the soldiers on the walls couldn't help but see the heavy and sturdy crash that was slowly rolling out from the Great Moon Kingdom Formation.
General Ruben, the commander of the Northwest Army, stood above the city gate. He had already personally fought for a night last night. At this moment, he was only physically and mentally exhausted. The defeats these days have made him full of frustration. As the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army of the Empire, he lost a large area of the empire, damaged his troops and replaced his generals, and was finally trapped in this Watt fortress. Ruben knew in his heart that even if he could hold on here and wait until the reinforcements repelled the army of the Great Moon Kingdom, his legion commander would have already endured. After the war, the emperor's first to kill must be his defeated general.
But Ruben is still struggling to support. Just because he must not let the entire Northwest Army be wiped out in Watt Fort! As a loyal soldier of the Empire, he must hold on to the last moment! Can't let the last barrier of the northwest of the empire-Watt Fortress fall into the hands of the Great Moon Kingdom again! He knew that behind him was the northwest plain of Yimapingchuan! If the Great Moon Kingdom breaks through the last line of defense of Watt Fortress, then the entire Northwest Plain will be ravaged under the iron hoof of the Great Moon Kingdom!
Morale has already fallen to the bottom. After successive defeats, the 200,000 army is left with less than 100,000-and Ruben knows that even if the number of 100,000, excluding the soldiers who have been injured and disabled, they still maintain There are less than 70,000 people with combat ability. Ruben had a deep fear of Luo Yantar, the commander of the Great Moon Kingdom-this terrible opponent, with strange use of soldiers, was especially good at long-distance attacks. Just like a wolf on the grassland, it can always pinpoint the opponent's weakness, and then bite it hard!
Frankly speaking, Ruben knows that he is not an excellent strategy master, he is a diligent soldier, he is more good at being an executor than a decision maker! Back then, when I was under the command of the great Tulip Duke, as long as the Duke gave any instructions and tasks, I could go all out to complete it!
He was completely relied upon to fight bravely under the command of the Duke of Tulip, and after successfully completing the mission and accumulating military merits, he slowly rose to his current status-of course, this is also related to the lack of real military talents in the empire after the death of the Duke of Tulip. . But if he wants Ruben to be the commander of the army, let him plan the strategy and win a thousand miles, it is not Lu Inn competent.
Especially in the face of the cunning and ferocious opponent on the grassland-Royantal, Ruben has been beaten back and forth since the battle with him! In a completely passive state!
Reminiscing about the brilliance of his time under the tulip duke, Ruben sighed deeply and couldn't help touching his half-white beard. He didn't like to be this commander at all. In comparison, he preferred to be a brave commander under Lord Duke. At that time, he didn't have to think about anything, as long as he executed the orders drawn up by Lord Duke! ——Not like now, watching the sand table with a group of staff in the command all day long, racking my brains to ponder the next move of the opponent.
Shaking his head, Ruben forced himself to concentrate-the Great Moon Kingdom army in the distance has already begun to gather a whole team! It seems that today will be another **** battle!
"Huh! See if your saber is good or my long sword is good!" Reuben gave an order loudly to make all the soldiers who were off the city go up to the wall to prepare for battle.
Fortunately, like the traditions of the barbarians in the steppe, this Royantal also has his weaknesses-he is good at field battles in the plains, but he doesn't seem to have any good methods for siege.
After the previous news learned that he used a sneak attack and thunderous speed to pull out the Blackstone Fort and Trier Castle in one breath, Ruben stood up to guard against the opponent's sneak attack. Sure enough, in the past few days, the Great Moon Kingdom performed the same trick again. First, on the eve of three days ago, an army of hundreds of thousands drove to the city, and then attacked the city without stopping, almost hitting himself by surprise—the **** gang All the horses are idiots! Two hours ago, he even reported that his opponent's main force was still hundreds of miles away in the important town of Mudan, but in a blink of an eye he ran down to his nose! Had it not been for Reuben to have been prepared after several losses in a row, I am afraid he would have to let the other party succeed in a sneak attack.
In the past few days, the opponent always attacked the city at night, and during the day it was just a symbolic harassment. Obviously, I want to use this method to consume the combat power of my army, and I want to use fatigue and harassment tactics to drag myself down.
The soldiers have long been exhausted, but the main force of the Northwest Army is, after all, the elite of the empire! On the plain, Ruben really couldn't beat Royantal. The foreign cavalry on the grassland came and went like wind, which was really a headache, but you must know that the cavalry was useless in the battle of siege! Siege depends on infantry!
Reuben ordered the archer to prepare. The only capital he has now is the archer. When Luoyantar sneaked an attack on the important town of Mudan, when the army was defeated, all the equipment was lost, especially the sling and fire crossbow, which are essential for city defense. Those things were not brought out in the chaos!
Fortunately, Ruben made the most courageous decision in his life at that time!
Seeing that the defeat was irreversible, Ruben resolutely ordered the burning of all military supplies that could not be taken away! Although distressed, the important town of Mudan has stored sufficient war preparation materials for many years, various sophisticated equipment, slings, artillery, etc., and there are enough 100,000 troops to eat the grain and grass for the previous year, all of which were caught in a big fire. Burned it clean! The ignited fire burned for three days and three nights. In the end, even though Luo Yantar gave the order to kill and wounded hundreds of people to extinguish the fire, he only rescued a little bit. Food only.
Fortunately, Ruben made that decision! Otherwise, let Luoyan Tal get the excellent equipment, I am afraid that they have already pushed the slings made by the empire to attack the city!
"My lord! They are coming up!" one of his commanders shouted loudly.
Reuben cheered up, drew out his sword, and said loudly: "Raise the battle flag!"
Below the city, the army formation of the Great Moon Kingdom has been assembled. The cavalry is on the two wings, and the center is a neat infantry formation!
"Damn it!" Reuben scolded fiercely: "Infantry! God knows how Royantal trains those barbarians who can only ride horses and can't walk into infantry! Humph, I thought it would be infantry if they would line up two squares Already?! Let me see how good your infantry is!"
The sun in the east has completely risen, the sunlight is shining on the wilderness, and the rows of scimitars are reflected, the knives are dazzling and murderous!
