Proof of the Sun King
Vol 4 Chapter 1214: , Boderick's decision
Standing on the ruins of the Duchy of Aquitaine, Baudric, Duke of Boldero, couldn't help but think of the previous storm.
Bodrick is already 100 years old this year. If he hadn't drank the water of the Holy Grail, the old duke would have been completely aged. There is not much interest in internal affairs.
In the previous civil strife, Bodrick himself has always been in a neutral position. He neither stood on Ryan's side nor chose to join Free Britannia, even if the knights and nobles over there wanted to win him over. The old duke was unmoved by the extremely high price.
He was really tired.
But he knows how serious this crisis is. Carcassonne has been destroyed, and the Skaven have taken the hinterland of Brittany, and even directly attacked the city of Jean in Lane. If the enemy cannot be intercepted in the old Aki In the territory of the Principality of Tan, then the disaster of the Skaven will greatly damage the entire knight kingdom, so Bodrick himself decided to lead the attack in person.
The old duke couldn't help showing a smile when he thought of this. His son Federmond gradually matured and had children.
Of course, there will not be too many Poldro troops temporarily recruited, but thanks to Poldro’s extremely prosperous urban business environment, high industrialization and the continued expansion of the Poseidon fleet, with only one order from Ryan, Poldro immediately formed An army of 12,000 men left the duchy, although Bodrick knew there were countless Skaven, but so what? The Rat Man always wins by numbers.
As head coach, Boderick's army was at the center of the line, with the Knights of Neptune and the Guard of Mannan guarding the Duke himself, as well as the Marines of Poldro and the five regiments of the Freedmen's infantry, which proved to be durable The test, unlike most of the Principalities of Brittany, Boldero was the first duchy to be equipped with artillery. The old duke looked at his two artillery regiments, a total of 22 artillery pieces and 4 rocket launchers, and he was still satisfied.
The army on the left flank was the Vichy army of Juan, the defeated Duke of Magritte, 4,000 men, consisting of the Estalia militia, the knights of the three knights, and a small number of personal soldiers of Juan himself.
Boderick despised this group of Estalians. Due to historical reasons and the pride that the Poseidon fleet had defeated the Armada, the Duke of Bordeaux and the Admiral of Brittany believed that the Estalians were all These eggless bereaved dogs.
The army on the right flank was the Berleone Army, led by Duke Theodoric, 3,000 men.
This is also an old slick. The first time there was a problem with the belief in the goddess, the duke started his career again and again. His attitude towards the fairy in the lake, the guardian **** of the kingdom, was that he neither denied the goddess to Britta Nia's contribution, but he did not think that nothing happened. Facing Ryan's speech and orders, Theodoric did not listen to the tune. From this point on, Theodoric is competent.
But after losing the lady's faith, this guy's old problem is committed. He starts to drink and indulge again. He hooks up with noble women and even freedmen's wives. Duke Theodoric's old problems make him probably Never getting close to the Holy Grail, but he didn't care.
Things were soon reversed. With the success of Ryan's speech, the first thing Theodoric did was to repent. He immediately responded to Ryan's order and repented his sins loudly to the goddess. In good faith, Theodoric did it, and beneath his horse now hung the heads of five Skaven Warlords, Grey Seers, or Captain Skaven.
Theodoric must be the first in battle, and the rush must be the first. Bodric was surprised by Theodoric's bravery and firmness. However, recklessness is often not a bad thing for knights, right?
"Our middle army will be in charge of dealing with the main force of the enemy." Tactics were familiar to Boderick, and the Admiral said to Juan and Theodoric: "Our artillery, muskete, and crossbowmen corps will cooperate with Skaven crossfire, our strong shield walls and formations will be able to deal with the Skaven population, and when the time is right, the knights charge through the flanks, targeting the Skaven warlord."
"The knight's group charge? This is too obvious." Juan hesitated.
"The Prophets of the Lake God will provide us with dense fog cover." Bodrick continued: "And the Sea God Knights will assist you, and I will follow them to charge."
"I understand the Skaven Rat Man, these rats cannot stand a little setback, and our knights will give them the most fatal blow!" Duke Theodoric said excitedly.
Gradually, thick fog began to appear on the plain.
Baudrillard de Boldero, the old duke of Boldero looked at the battlefield he had chosen. The Duchy of Aquitaine was once a very beautiful and fertile place, with vast fields and prosperous manors. and noble knights, but everything changed after the Red Duke incident.
Most of the current Principality of Aquitaine has been incorporated into the Principality of Bordeaux. Most of this place is plain and safe to defend, which is very conducive to cavalry charges. Historically, this Principality was not easy to be surrounded by. Facing the invasion of foreign enemies, the knights and nobles here love internal fighting. They built a large number of castles on the plains. Over time, most of these castles became ruins.
Maybe one day, the prosperous Boldero will also be in ruins?
Bodrick looked at the beautiful scenery in the distance, the pastoral scenery of Aquitaine, and the old duke could faintly hear the bells of the Skaven and the very messy horns.
Bodrick once scolded, regretted, and annoyed the truth about the fairies in the lake, but he was probably the duke who first accepted the identity of the fairies in the lake as elf gods. The reason was very simple. First, he was The Holy Grail Knight is a vested interest. Second, he not only believes in the fairy in the lake, but also believes in the sea **** Mannan.
If one fails, at least there is another.
The old duke looked at the battlefield, and he clenched his Seagod Trident.
my old buddy! We will fight together again, Duke Bodrick thought.
Ocean, trident, and that unique smell of fish and sea.
More for Britannia and Mannan for the lady!
The order was conveyed like flowing water, the army was formed, the artillery entered the position, the shield wall was formed, and the free people who were temporarily recruited were nervous and full of chess expectations. Although the Sea God Knight did not fight on the ocean that he was best at, But still gearing up.
"Prepare for artillery fire~"
"emission!"
The sound of the first fire of the artillery spread throughout the entire battlefield, the Duke of Baudric closed his eyes, and such a beautiful place of Aquitaine was about to become a slaughterhouse of flesh and blood. Overwhelmed by the chaotic voices of the Skaven, hundreds of slave rats made their first attack, before being overwhelmed by bows and artillery.
The two armies began to fight.
Even armed with muskets, archers and crossbowmen have proven to have their place, with the tried and tested Bretonian longbowmen and dwarven crossbow-armed crossbowmen delivering satisfactory answers, round after round The shooting caused huge casualties to the slave rats at the front, and Ikt-Claw also noticed that the chief engineer ordered the soldiers to move forward, but in the overwhelming "yesyes!" and "diedie!" Calvin's triangular shields have poor coverage.
All Skaven rats don't care, the slave rats are originally used to send.
Duke Boderick also noticed that the number of slave rats was very large, so many that they covered the entire front and continued to move forward. The old duke secretly scolded the enemy, how many rats are there? Juan's Vichy army was then ordered to press on from the left.
Just let those Estalians and Slave Rats exchange! The only goal is to defeat the Skaven's middle army! Bodrick judged that only by giving the Skaven a taste of defeat would they be able to make them crumble one after another.
"Theodoric Duke of Berleon is here! The great grandson of the Rat Man! Your grandfather is here! In the name of the lady, go back to your underground!" Duke Theodoric was the first to initiate In the charge, the brave and fearless Theodoric may be an old-fashioned and alcoholic violent, reckless guy, but he is also a heroic warrior. Theodoric holds the giant of the first Holy Grail companion Balduin. The axe, personally rushing into the formation, is invincible wherever it goes.
"The descendants of Balduin, where is your courage?"
"We are here!"
"Don't let any of the rats go!"
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Theodoric's courage greatly boosted the morale of the Berleon army. Behind him were dozens of Berleon's knights, two hundred knights' squires, and the famous gang of idiots, a thousand men. The army rushed forward just after the battle, and started a life-and-death battle.
"Skaven~yesyes~breakbreak~Skaven~the strongest~the most powerful~"
"We have a lot of rats~ a lot of rats~"
"The Horned Rat bless Skaven, will bless Skaven, yes, bless~"
On the other side, the Scully army of Ikert is also in good spirits. Clan rats and slave rats form an ocean of rats. Under the crowd of rats, the Skaven are in high spirits, and the plague monks hold up the filthy Banners, chanting the motto of the Rat, the Engineers activate the terrible war machines, with the will of the Rat, the technology of Ikt-Claw and the blessing of the plague, Skaven, what else is there to fear ? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!
Duke Theodoric also knows very well that there are so many Skaven, so when the war begins, his target is the commander of the left flank of the Skaven, the deputy of Ikot-Sharpclaw, from the history The Engineer Warlock of Clan Curry, Balekunt-Mazquek.
"The cavalry, the cavalry is a lot, a lot~" Balekunt-Mazquek's army has thousands of clan rats and a larger number of slave rats, but in the face of the personal attack of Duke Theodoric, its troops are a bit Unable to resist, I saw the soldiers of the Bo Leon Rogue Group follow the Duke bravely. Although they and the Duke did not like each other, they were eager to die facing each other, but facing the foreign enemy at this time, the people of Bo Leon were still in the end. united.
"Forward! For Madam and Berleon, for Britannia!" The idiot rogues, armed with shields, spears and swords, first attacked the weak point of the Skaven army. There were so many that the formation was not spread out, and a considerable number of Clan Rats were stuck behind, and Slave Rats tended to collapse at a touch.
Theodoric, Duke of Berleon, did not choose to concentrate the cavalry in one place, but scattered the cavalry a little. He himself led forty cavalry to charge. Theodoric only had one goal in his eyes, and that was this Sis. The head of the Calvin Rat Man!
"Fuck the rat, get out! Your grandfather Theodoric has come to get your rat's head!"
A large row of clan rats set up a gun formation, thousands of them together, trying to stop Theodoric's charge, the duke shouted loudly, he raised the artifact battle axe in his hand, the axe shining with the blessing of the lake **** prophet The blade swept across, and dozens of spears snapped off. Theodoric's angry roar made the nearby Skaven rats feel timid: "Rat, get out!"
"Humph! Ignorance, hairless, ignorant!" The rat is the rat, and the Skaven warlord and engineer Balekunt has no glory at all. He sneered at the enemy's brainlessness and recklessness, as well as chivalry. , I thought to myself that I still have at least ten years to live, how can I exchange it with this hairless guy like you?
"Poison Wind Grenadiers, Poison Wind Mortars, prepare." The engineer waved his hand, and dozens of Poison Wind grenadiers and the Poison Wind mortars of three weapon groups stepped forward. Balls and cannonballs fired.
Duke Theodoric had to order the army to withdraw temporarily in order to avoid the poisonous gas. The Berleon army dropped more than a hundred corpses and gave up the attack in confusion.
"Hahaha~" The engineer laughed loudly at the incompetence and fragility of human beings~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Regardless of the fact that it lost at least 1,500 rat people, and at least 500 rat people were poisoned to death by its own poisonous gas.
"Bah!" Duke Theodoric spat: "Shameless, a rat is a rat."
"Your Excellency, what shall we do now?" shouted his valet.
"It's alright, I've been prepared for a long time. Your Majesty reminded us that the poison gas of the Skaven is very powerful." Duke Theodoric raised his artifact tomahawk.
After the army formation, the two prophets of the lake **** cast spells together, and a wind blast technique converged under their control.
The left wing of the Rat Man collapsed suddenly, the Slave Rat and the Clan Rat wailed to avoid the oncoming poisonous wind, and the formation became a mess.
"Reform! Attack again." Duke Theodoric charged again.
At this time, the engineer Barracute began to realize that the situation was not good. In addition to the sound of the hoofs of the knights of Duke Theodoric, another group of knights was rushing towards the place where it was.
The leader is the Knight of the Holy Grail of Carcassonne, Sir Amanric de Garderon.
This old Holy Grail is a strong sanctuary. Even in the south of Brittany, there are very few Holy Grail knights as tall, strong, mighty and full of confidence in the goddess. Carcassonne was destroyed, but he still There is still a chance for revenge.
"Send the Storm Rat Corps and the Ratchet Team to support Balequint."
"Tristan, send two teams of Seagod Knights to defeat Skaven's left flank."
The two orders were issued almost simultaneously.
Both Boderick and Ikert ordered determination that the confrontation between the Berleon Army and the Skaven left-wing army would be the key to this war.
