Warhammer Throne

Chapter 288: , Aftermath

When Kasfan led the remnant knights and a few knights to retreat to the mountain road of Doomsday Mountain, it was not the response of the left army that was waiting for them.

The gate of the camp was closed, and the sentry was empty.

"What's going on ?! What about Didiers? Open the door!"

The heavy horn sound echoed among the mountains.

"Mummum"

The sound of the army marching from the mountain road, the sound of small steps rang from the other end of Doomsday Mountain.

The sound of "Boom Boom Boom" pressed down the call of Casfan and others. At the end of the line of sight, on the other side of the mountain, an army appeared.

The first appeared densely with spears and battle axes, as well as wings on the helmet, until after the team had advanced for a certain period of time, the stout voice appeared from the mountain road in pieces.

"Go forward! Granny's descendants!"

"Hey hah!"

"Pull out your weapon!"

"what!"

More than a thousand dwarf troops appeared from the other side of the mountain. They held shields and tomahawks, or held up long guns to completely block the path of Kasfan ’s retreat. The muzzle of the black hole pointed at Kasfan. Wait for someone: "It is not allowed to pass here!"

"Oops! It's the reinforcements of Fort Karak Breeze!" Kasfan looked back, and Emperor Karl Franz led the Rick Guards to block their backs.

They were surrounded.

"His Excellency Kasfan, welcome to the territory of the empire. I have arranged for you a residence in Braunschweig." The emperor was slowly approaching Kasfan's remnant troops, surrounded by Rick guards: "You There is nowhere to escape, put down the weapon, I, Karl Franz, the emperor of the empire, are willing to promise you preferential treatment of the captives and healing the wounded. "

"Even if it was a war between humans, you finally won me by relying on the power of the dwarves, Karl Franz!" Kasfan knew that the trend was gone, and he said sarcastically: "You are a decent victory? "

"This is of course an upright victory, Kasfan, when you declare war on the empire, you automatically declare war with the dwarves." Karl Franz's face was calm: "To this day, you will shirk the responsibility of failure to Anyone else? "

"Cathfann sighed in the sky:" Yes, I should have thought of it, the dwarf supreme king and the sacred covenant dwarf of the empire will definitely stand on your side. "

"Damn shit! Immediately dismount and pay tribute to the great emperor!" Rick shouted guardedly, and Carl Franz extended his hand to signal him to shut up, and the emperor remained calm: "So, What do you think of my proposal, Lord Casfan? "

Duke Palaon turned and dismounted. He took off his handguards and handed his blood-stained gloves to Karl Franz.

The emperor of the empire reached out and took over Kasfan ’s gloves. At this point, the Duke of Palaon finally sat on the ground: "I lost. In the name of the lady, I Kasfande Palawan, here, Surrender to the Emperor Karl Franz! "

At 10:30 in the morning, the Emperor of the Empire, Prince Rick, the Grand Duke of Braunschweig, and the heirs of the sacred heritage of the Charlemagne from the sea to the mountains toured the battlefield on horseback, and the battle of Hemgart ended with the overall victory of the empire. .

After the war, corpses and wounded people were everywhere on the narrow plain before Hemgart. The Empire ’s medics and merciful female priests worked hard to rescue the wounded on the battlefield. At the same time, groups of Breton captives sat directly On the ground, he was guarded by the imperial team and he was also rescued.

In this war, the imperial team killed more than 400 people and injured more than 800 people. The Breton army killed more than 900 people, including more than 100 knights, and injured more than 600 people.

This is the case of human civil war. Everyone is very fierce, but in fact they all have a decent size. Generally, the wounded soldiers will not be attacked as long as they sit down to show that they are injured. Most of the knights can survive as long as they are not killed on the spot after falling.

On the walls of Helmgart, Lane looked at the still smoky battlefield and sighed secretly.

The world he traverses is very special, and the technology that many traversers are proud of is actually not useful here.

Musket guns, steam drive technology, and grain improvement are the technologies that humans and dwarves of this world have.

When Ryan first crossed, he wondered whether movable type printing could be used in this world, but he soon discovered that movable type printing was invented long before the great snn.

However, this technology cannot be promoted at all, because this technology has been corrupted by chaos in itself. The first printed books produced are very beautiful, but almost all readers have become strange believers. In the end, this type of movable type Printing can only be controlled by the church, and only with the blessing of the gods will the printed books not be corrupted.

Ridiculous, but reality.

In the same way, many technologies are not mastered by humans, but they cannot be promoted at all. The technology of forging plate armor and large siege weapons is destined to be mastered by a small number of people, because once mass production, green skin and chaotic believers will be more than humans Quickly master this technology.

In addition, the power of artillery and muskets is actually limited. At least Ryan can conclude that even if the Empire ’s heavy cannon hits himself, it is difficult for him to be injured. In this world, there are many face-to-face cannons. The Holy Grail Knight is One of them, firearms are not invincible.

Britannia did not have the financial resources to build steam tanks like the Empire, but after seeing the high-tech of the Empire, Ryan determined that his army should also be equipped with enough firearms, and at the same time speed up the construction of the gun battalion and artillery unit.

At the same time, he is really envious of the big killer such as the steam tank. The steam tank is one of the big killers at the bottom of the empire. It was built by the famous Southern National Engineering Masters and the Dwarf Engineer Association before the great snn. The prototype steam There are twelve tanks in total, each with a different internal structure.

At present, there are eight vehicles left in the hands of the empire, all controlled by the emperor. In addition, the engineers of the Noor Gun Academy and the Brunswick Royal College of Engineering have also tried to copy some steam tanks. Of course, these Imitations are not as invincible as prototype steam tanks, but they are still powerful war machines.

The secrets of making steam tanks are kept strictly in the Ludwig Sanctuary of the Noor Gun Academy.

"Compared to the empire, we have fallen behind in many places." Francois and Ryan walked down the wall. The cheers of the electors and the roar of the imperial team on the wall made the Duke and Earl feel a bit harsh. Lansova said with a sigh: "Since the Dorta incident, there has been little progress in science and technology in the past three hundred years in Britannia. The knights and nobles believe that the Holy Grail is everything. Countless war machine innovations, His Majesty Ludwig vigorously promoted firearms to strengthen the Empire ’s army, but we are still relying on trebuchets and serf archers. Yes, our knights still have a clear advantage over the Imperial knights. but"

"But war is not just about knights." Lane also sighed softly.

"Yes, war can never rely on knights alone. Our Holy Grail knights will not be afraid of those cannons and steam tanks, but the Holy Grail knights are very few." Francois nodded.

The two entered the battlefield. The imperial team was cleaning the battlefield. The captives were settled. The serfs and knights who surrendered were everywhere. Seeing the two Holy Grail knights entering the battlefield, many knights were ashamed, and the serfs were even more Pray for forgiveness.

Casfann was defeated in this battle. He used his prestige accumulated over decades to achieve Karl Franz's fame in the first battle.

Surrounded by hundreds of imperial knights, Karl Franz was patrolling the battlefield. The emperor rode on a sturdy mixed-race elf horse and saw the appearance of Ryan and Francois. The emperor smiled: "Good morning, Fri. Lord Langsova, Lord Lane. "

"Good morning, Your Majesty Franz, I hope you treat the captives well and do not insult them." Ryan sighed slightly, and said calmly.

"Oh! Of course, I promised." The emperor froze for a moment, he nodded immediately: "Please understand that our empire does not want to fight this war, we are actively defending."

"Oh." Ryan was a little sarcasm and a little self-deprecating. Karl Franz had carefully designed a trap for Casfan to drill in, and then won victory under the position of justice. This war made the emperor do his best. It has won popular support and enough political capital.

Compared to Richard, who was in his 100s, Carl Franz, the emperor in his 30s, was perfectly reflected.

"Let me go!" A beautiful lake **** prophet was **** by several imperial soldiers, her hands were tied behind her, and she was put up before the emperor: "My lord, we caught a lake **** prophet!"

"Madam curses you!" The Prophet Lake God was **** by ropes. Many Imperial soldiers took the opportunity to reach out and wipe oil on her body. The beautiful female Prophet twisted her body and tried her best to avoid it.

"Let her go." Lane said towards Carl Franz. "The Prophet of the Lake God enjoys refuge."

"The Prophet of the Lake God enjoys refuge, but you need to pay enough ransom." Tuscany Elector Umberto Corleone respected Ryan and Francois, and after a bitter battle, the Elector Hou himself did not leave a drop of blood. His gorgeous plate armor and tall helmet feathers were still bright: "The ransom price of a lake **** prophet is five hundred gold marks. Looking at the two faces, the price of three hundred gold marks."

"Lady curses you! Take your dirty hands away from me!" The Prophet Lake looks about 30 years old, looks mature and beautiful, most of the Prophet Lake keeps youth and beauty all his life, only wait until the last few years They will age quickly, and then wither in front of the shrine of the fairy in the lake or in the holy place, and merge with nature.

"Forget it, this Lady of the Lake God Prophet is free." Carl Franz did not want to be entangled in this matter anymore. He also wanted to give Ryan a face. Ryan's strength is what he saw with his own eyes. In fact, this The war empire won this time is very thrilling. If there is a Holy Grail knight to lead the team, the ending may be completely different. Maybe the Umberto elector ca n’t insist on his arrival. The steel plate of the steam tank is a difficult defense for the Ranger Knights and Kingdom Knights. , But many of the Holy Grail Knights can tear steel plates by hand.

The emperor knew that although the empire was strong, there was a fatal problem.

Lack of high-end combat capabilities of the formed group.

As the most powerful country in the old world, the empire has many legendary powerhouses, but the empire ’s highest-end combat power is very scattered.

Each holy knight is a living saint with strong strength, firm belief and loyal commendation. The holy knight of the same rank is much stronger than ordinary people. As long as the lake fairy or witch witch gives a command, the holy knights can collectively dispatch , Fighting for the goddess.

As a empire emperor, Karl Franz could not do it. The high-end empire of the empire was very scattered and cared for. It was very difficult to integrate them. Heilberg is already the best swordsman in the Rick Guards, but He is not even an opponent of the ordinary Holy Grail Cavaliers, the Griffin Legion champion Roger was even knocked down by Ryan.

To fight the darkness, the power of the Holy Grail Knight is very necessary.

Selling personal feelings to Lane and Francois here is beneficial and harmless.

When the emperor waved his hand, the prophet of the lake **** was let go by the imperial soldiers. She glanced in disgust at the imperial man who had taken the opportunity to put her hand on her before, and hurried to Ryan and Francois behind.

The other knights are not so lucky. They are taken away in groups. These knights will be held in the prisons of Hemgart and Braunschweig, waiting for the ransom.

"What about Casfan?" Ryan asked.

"Kasfan? A ransom of 20,000 gold marks. When will the ransom arrive and when will we let go?" Imperial General Kurt Heilberg said in a deep voice.

This is the amount of ransom that the empire has negotiated for a long time to calculate. It can make a lot of money, and it will not allow Casfan to pay the money. The empire believes that with the accumulation of thousands of years in the Principality of Palaon, There should be no more than 20,000 gold marks, or 20,000 gold kronor.

"No, I'm not saying this. I just want to ask where is Casfane now?" Ryan shook his head. He certainly would not have paid the money. He just had something to discuss with Casfann.

The Duke of Palaon is a conservative in his position. He does not like Ryan's close relationship with wood elves and dwarves, especially Casfane suffered a great loss in the trade with wood elves.

At the same time, Kasfan also took the dwarves to build weapons and houses for themselves, but the level of these dwarves is very different from the level of rune craftsmen and dwarf engineers recruited by Ryan, because the dwarves he can receive are mostly in An imperial dwarf whose empire cannot mix.

So the relationship between Kasfan and Lane is very poor, and it is almost impossible to establish an equal conversational relationship.

Now, the opportunity comes.

"This" Kurt Heilberg is hesitating ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Lane is strong, in case

"Take Lord Lane, Heilberg." Carl Franz agreed, "I agreed."

"Yes!" Since it was the emperor's order, Heilberg said no more: "Lord, please follow me."

"it is good."

Ryan followed Heilberg to the barracks of the empire, where he saw the debilitating and imprisoned Kasfan: "Hello, Lord Kasfan."

"Ryan Macado ?! It's you! Are you here to laugh at me?" Kasfan was imprisoned in an iron cage, he was not shackled and handcuffed, and he looked many years older, seeing Ryan appear , He said angrily to Ryan through the iron window: "You are not satisfied with watching my failure, but also to take the opportunity to humiliate me?"

"No, I came to see you because I wanted to talk to you about something."
