Realm of Power

To say what Yaosen's remnant Hungarian army lacks most, it is food, weapons, and arrow clusters for bows and cavalry that urgently need to be replenished, and the carriage he unveiled at this moment was filled with piles of arrow clusters. The new shield that had not been used had a strong smell of paint. Although Rila's infrastructure was poor, But this does not mean that the weapon forging technology is poor. On the contrary, Ruila, who has poured all the country's financial resources into the military, in order to build a strong army that can shock the entire Central and European countries, formed a foothold between the two major forces of the East and the West. Next, the forging of weapons is almost harsh and rigorous.

Not only did the heavy infantry's steel shields, double-layer armor, and armor-piercing spears go through a series of special acceptance procedures, which were not inferior to the standards of any powerful empire, but the tail ends of arrow clusters that were used as consumables were also painted with black paint. , this can prevent the tail feathers of the arrow cluster from falling off due to being wetted by rain during combat or improper transportation. The front end of the arrow cluster is made of fine iron, which is cold and cold. They are bright and sharp. Even in Hungary, which is famous for its archers, such finely crafted arrow clusters are of the highest quality. In Rila, they are only suitable for use by the main army. At this moment, they are everywhere in Hungary. In front of the remnant army, how could Yao Sen, who was considering risking an attack on a Rila city to obtain supplies due to a shortage of supplies, be ecstatic?

"Everyone has seen it, this is God's will! This is God's will for us to return to China!"

Yaosun's eyes turned red with excitement. He grabbed the high-quality arrow clusters piled on the carriage with one hand, stepped onto the carriage and shouted loudly to the fighting men around him. The Hungarian soldiers raised their weapons and cheered, "No need to die, we You can return home! At this moment, everyone's faces showed a look of relief. Although they didn't know whether they could return to their country, it would be nice to die on a land closer to Hungary, so that their souls would be closer to their own people, because The retreat was cut off by the coalition forces. In addition, being chased by the Falcon Empire cavalry and running all over the ground, the remnant army of Yaosen did not know the news that the Hungarian soldiers destroyed the two principalities in two groups. In their eyes, these arrow clusters, these supplies, and That brand-new armor is their capital to continue moving forward. It is God who gives them hope to survive.

"Go back quickly and set fire to those supplies. We must not let them fall into the hands of the Hungarians!" Baron Sige was shocked. Hysterically, he pushed away the guard captain who was pulling him away, pulled out his sword and turned around to fight back. At this time, in his eyes, everything seemed to have turned into a doomsday scene.

"Run away, sir, we can't fight back." The guard captain held him forcibly, with a sour face that almost made him cry. The ferry could no longer hold on, and the soldiers collapsed. They desperately fired arrows to block the attacking Hungarian auxiliary troops. These Hungarian auxiliary troops rushed over almost with bare hands.

After the Hungarian cavalry broke through the car formation, they turned around and returned to the back. They used arrow clusters to suppress Ruila's counterattack. The tricky and precise arrow clusters were continuously shot out from their hands. The blood of dead men and horses flowed out from the gap where the battle was fiercest. The ground was dyed red, and the blood couldn't even be absorbed by the land, turning into bright red streams that merged into the river. The color of the water on the shore turned into a light pink. The Ruila soldiers at the ferry had completely collapsed under the impact of the chaotic civilians. The ferry had become a Shura field-like existence. At every moment, no one knew how many people died here!

In the midst of the smoke, screams shook the sky,

"Kill!" The Hungarians rushed to the nearest place, less than fifty meters away from the bridge entrance. They were almost galloping not far away from them, rushing into the chaotic crowd, overturning people and horses until they were trampled down. Turned into a pile of meat. The cold wind hit his face with the smell of blood. When General Rilla, Baron Sige, saw this scene, his face suddenly turned pale. How could he fight back in this situation? He could also see now that the Hungarian army that suddenly appeared was actually an army that was extremely tired and embarrassed. The three thousand or so light cavalry that came out at the beginning could be seen through, but the ones behind them covered them up. The infantry looks like beggars, there are almost no armored soldiers, and many of them don't even have weapons in their hands. There is definitely something wrong with this Hungarian army. Even if they don't encounter themselves here and encounter these supplies, they will casually If you encounter that one, Rila's army may be destroyed.

But why did he meet me! Baron Sige had a dull look on his face. He didn’t know how badly the remnant Hungarian army in front of him was being chased by the Falcon Empire cavalry on the border. Although these half-servant auxiliaries had poor weapons and equipment, they were still They were all in good order, and naturally there was no Hungarian regular on the horse during the escape. The army ran very fast, relying on two legs to run. If they encountered the Falcon Empire cavalry, they would be dead. Originally, there were 24,000 auxiliary troops, but now there are only less than 16,700 left. , most of the weapons and equipment were lost long ago, along with those people on the border! There are also food supplies that have been almost consumed a long time ago. If they hadn't encountered such a material transport team here, Yao Sen had no choice but to ruthlessly abandon all these auxiliary troops. As for these auxiliary troops Yaosun has no control over what will happen if he stays in the coalition territory. His duty is to bring back three thousand Hungarian elites.

For these auxiliary troops, this glimmer of hope is so slim. He followed the light cavalry fearfully, always afraid of being thrown away by the light cavalry. At this moment, the chance of survival was right in front of him. How could the auxiliary army not fight to the death? As long as these weapons and materials were seized, even the auxiliary army could become a fighting force. Yes, tens of thousands of people anyway,

The Hungarians are tough by nature, and the auxiliary army has a poor living environment and is consumed by war, so these auxiliary armies do not have a strong fear of death. There are also tough people who care about life and death among them. It is just that they fought in the past and went out to work. Not contributing, just serving as the main auxiliary force, there are no mandatory regulations, it is common for a team of ten thousand people to fall apart after losing 700 to 800 yuan. Or they just dispersed in a hurry,

They are auxiliary troops with status, not slaves who can be used as cannon fodder to fill the city. Even if they are defeated due to poor combat, they will not be punished too severely.

The Hungarian regular army also knew the virtues of these auxiliary troops, and never placed any hope of victory on the auxiliary troops. They generally did not stop the auxiliary troops when they saw them collapse, but only rallied them back behind to prevent them from completely running away. Just push them up again, but today, these casualties saw their companions being shot down by arrows from the opposite side. Looking at the bright spear points in front of them, the auxiliary army took the initiative to rush forward. It should be said that they ignored the casualties! Killing all the way forward,

The auxiliary army forcibly broke through the Rila people's defense line in one breath. The Hungarian auxiliary troops that continued to pour in rushed into the group of frightened civilians. They took out the weapons on the carriage and started killing everywhere. The civilian husbands were originally uneasy and reluctant to stay behind the protection of Rila soldiers.

When the Hungarian cavalry broke in from behind the ferocious auxiliary troops, the men and horses were all dressed in blood-red and rushed in frantically from left to right. Thousands of civilians building the bridge suddenly collapsed and ran aimlessly on the battlefield, shouting. This situation can no longer be dealt with. The civilian husband who was running around and the Rila soldiers who were impulsive and wanted to fight back.

"Run for your life, Mom!" Chaos surged. Even Baron Sige was dragged by the flow of people and could no longer move forward. He completely collapsed. The soldiers were turning around and running away. Many of them had the same goal, which was the stone bridge over the river! Large groups of people rushed to the stone bridge and were crowded on it.

I don’t know how many people stepped onto the bridge but were squeezed out by the people behind them. The Hungarian Qingqi kept rushing in and screamed wildly. All this increased the anxiety of the collapsed crowd, and the people's screams and howls became louder.

More people fell into the water. More and more people are like ants pulling at the supports that have not been removed in the river. A small pontoon bridge nearby that was used to repair the bridge can no longer support it. With the dense crowd on the bridge suddenly falling from the middle, there was a burst of mournful howls, and suddenly there were densely packed human heads under the bridge.

The spring is cold and the water is cold, so people wear thick clothes. Being invaded by the river water, they struggled to be swept up by the river water, and then floated and rolled away downstream.

This wild current completely submerged the back crossing. Looking at the chaos up and down the stone bridge, people kept squeezing down from the bridge. The sunshine above the head is bright and springy, but in Si Ge's heart there is only coldness.

The huge amount of supplies gathered by Ruila’s whole country. Materials worth millions of gold coins, transferred by countless transporters and civilians, were handed over here for nothing, and were regarded as important materials to resist the Hungarians. Without these, how could the combat troops in front fight?

"Thunder God! Thunder God!" Suddenly, the Hungarians in the distance burst out with a shocking voice. Among these supply carriages, there were obviously several carriages dragging black imperial thunder gods behind them. The Hungarians did not know at first that this was What, but several Hungarian officers came over and took a look, and the hair on their hair stood up. Isn't this the rumored Imperial God of Thunder? There was a sudden burst of ecstasy. I didn't expect that there was this in the Rila people's convoy... Even Yao Sen was a little stupid. Now he has food, weapons, soldiers, and the God of Thunder. God is going to make him big. Have a fight?

"It's over, it's all over!" Baron Sige heard the cheers of the Hungarians, and he was so troubled that he wanted to vomit blood. That was the God of Thunder that King Ruila spent a lot of money to buy from the black market in Putao. There were thirty of them in total. , regarded as a national treasure, the main force of the coalition forces broke into the northern part of Congo in such an important battle. His Majesty the King only crossed twenty gates, because the main force on the front line collapsed and became the war weapon of the Falcon Army.

The remaining ten doors are becoming more and more precious. They are simply national treasures. During transportation, special instructions were given. If one door is lost, Si Ge’s head will be taken.

They are all here. Si Ge's face is full of hopelessness. Each door is the result of the kingdom's hard work. Ruila has a strong desire to build the Western Front. To a large extent, he also has high hopes for these thunder gods. But now, he I can only watch helplessly as these national treasures fall into the hands of the Hungarians, and are either burned and destroyed, or used as weapons to attack Ruila.

"Sir, let's go. If you don't leave, it will be too late!" The guard captain dragged the lost Si Ge onto his horse.

At noon, the battle at the ferry ended. Groups of Hungarian auxiliary troops were sorting and counting the materials on the carriages at the ferry. These Hungarian auxiliary troops were wearing the armor and helmets of the Rila people. They seemed to be indifferent, but for For the Hungarians, the most painful period has finally passed.

With the support of these materials, and such sophisticated armor and weapons, they finally saw the hope of returning home. What made them most happy was that there were more than a thousand horses pulling the carriages. Although they were all rogue horses, But the Huns are a people on horseback, and they still vaguely have the abilities of their ancestors.

These horses are not good for fighting and charging, but they are enough for carrying supplies. This means that they can easily carry more supplies and continue moving forward. The carriages are too bulky, and the transportation roads in Ruila are too poor. , many areas are still rugged mountain roads, where it is convenient to directly use horses for transportation.

Beside the collapsed hut at the ferry, Yao Sen held his hand on the railing and glanced at the highly motivated subordinates in front of him. Although they were remnants of the army, there were still 20,000 cavalry and auxiliary troops. They spread out densely at the ferry, quickly controlled the surrounding areas of the ferry, and set up shop on the spot. In the rising smoke, there was a faint aura of an army. Now with these weapons and armors, the quivers of the horse archers, which had been withered for more than half a month, were all filled up this time. Each of the auxiliary soldiers had a fine armor and a powerful bow, and each of them had two full quivers. Arrows, even Hungarian regular infantry are of this level.

It was truly like a shotgun exchange for a cannon, and even he felt that his luck was a bit unlucky. It felt a bit overwhelming to be hit on the head by such a big pie. It was easy to cross the border without encountering the Falcon Army, and to seize the ferry supplies in one fell swoop solved the most urgent supply problem. So what’s next? Keep moving forward? This road is not easy to walk. If the ferry is attacked, the coalition forces should be on alert soon. The main force of the Ruila people will attack them with all their strength. If it is a lonely and angry army from before, they just hope to die closer to the tribe. He just left, and at most he would die fighting like a Hungarian soldier. But now that the morale of the army has suddenly improved, and even ten thunder gods have been captured, Yao Sen's mind is alive, and he continues to move forward, even if No matter how well prepared you are, you can't break through the obstruction of several times the coalition forces all the way. The Rila people must be waiting for you in front!

There should be other ways to take this path!

There was a hint of coldness in Yao Sen's eyes. After all, he was a veteran Hungarian general who had experienced many battles. Since he chose to risk a narrow escape to fight back, he naturally would not choose to sit back and wait for death. At this moment, his heart was even more excited. With a fierce energy, since I was not allowed to go back comfortably, I wanted to mess up Ruila. He immediately asked for several squadron captains, as well as a dozen auxiliary commanders and auxiliary soldiers. Soldiers are the official establishment of the Hungarian army. Although the soldiers were treated poorly, each of these dozen captains were genuine Hungarian nobles. They had just had their stomachs full, held their heads high, and the decadence on their faces had long been swept away. They were wearing the newly captured Rila The human armor looked quite mighty, but his steps were a little wandering, revealing that his abilities were not very strong. A dozen captains and three squadrons stopped outside the hut, put their hands on their chests and saluted Yaosen neatly, shouting Said "General Yaosen"

"Everyone, please sit down! Those who can survive until now are all our own!"

Yao Sen sneered at the corner of his mouth and raised his hands to them cordially. The three squadron captains were his confidants and believed that they would not encounter obstacles. However, it was hard to say for the captains of the auxiliary army. They had previously considered throwing them away if necessary. The auxiliary troops were used as bait to contain the pursuers, but now, these auxiliary troops have been equipped , that is a force worth relying on, Yao Sen's tone could not help but soften, and said, "I originally wanted to risk my life to bring everyone back, but now, I'm afraid we can't I’m following the original route! I’m going to change it. I wonder what you think!”

As soon as Yao Sen said these words, the conversation stopped immediately. There were no chairs around, only a temporarily cleared empty space with a dirty carpet. When Yao Sen asked them to sit down, these The captain, who is a Hungarian noble, was not polite. They sat down cross-legged in a circle and joked with each other. During this time, everyone got used to it. It was originally the habit of the Hungarian people. Just sit on the ground and spread out a blanket, you can sit on it or sleep on it. During this time, your buttocks were covered in smoke when being chased by the Falcon Empire cavalry. I was thankful that I couldn't have a place to rest that time. Even one person The fat commander's arms and arms showed muscles and were quite a bit smaller. In addition, during this period of time, he was sharing weal and woe, so naturally he was not very particular.

Hearing Yao Sen's words, the expressions of the three squadron captains and more than a dozen captains changed. The three squadron captains quickly regained their composure. Without asking any more questions, the captains stopped.

"General Yaosun, what do you mean?"

"You said you would take everyone back, and that's why everyone followed you so desperately. Now you say you can't go back, what do you want the brothers to do?" A captain asked with excitement.

"Don't get excited, everyone! Since the route is to be modified, there is a reason!" Yao Sen looked calm, picked up a piece of dead wood next to him, and drew a rough outline of the Barro region in Central Europe in front of everyone, with the dead wood among them. He nodded at a position and said in a solemn voice, "This time we intercepted the Ruila people's supplies. The other party will definitely not stop, and we To return home, we must pass through Rila. If we had marched in secret before, there would have been a glimmer of hope for us to rush through, but now that we have been exposed, the main force of the Rila Kingdom will come over soon. To continue moving forward, everyone has only It's a dead end, and the only way now is to mess up the entire Rila, or we still have a glimmer of hope!"

"What do you mean, general?" A light cavalry squadron leader's eyes flashed and he asked curiously.

"The road to Wuduya will inevitably encounter a deadlock from the Ruila people, so we will take another road! Let's go north first and kill the royal capital of the Ruila people. They will definitely not think of this, and then we will take the opportunity to enter The Yalu Mountains in the north! As long as we enter the mountains, the coalition forces will no longer be able to surround us." Yao Sen smiled slightly (to be continued...)
