Rise of the Empire Total War

At the junction of Luwen Territory and Cork Territory, Richard's army has already begun to besiege the rebel fortress on the right side of the road. Facing the hostile nearly 5,000 Ravana Kingdom Army, the 2,000 rebel fighters holding the fortress were not afraid. Even before that, more than a thousand of their comrades in arms were all wiped out overnight.

Just as Richard was discussing with several officers how to attack next, an imperial soldier came over, half-kneeling on the ground, and said, Your Majesty Caesar, Knight Renato and feudal knights on foot come around from behind. On the way, they also captured a group of rebel knights intending to go to Cochranburg.

Captured a group of rebel knights? Richard looked at the half-kneeling imperial soldiers in surprise, and asked, Did you find out their intentions?

According to Knight Renato's report, they want to go to Fort Cochrane to report the battle here and remind the rebels there to improve their defense preparations. The imperial soldier replied truthfully.

Listening to his words, Richard couldn't help but sneered and said, It's a beautiful idea, but he also gave me an idea.

After finishing speaking, Richard turned to look at Condela and the others, and said, Our Chief Gehrman gave me an idea, we don't need to smash this fortress, why don't we just bypass the fortress and attack it more easily? Cork leads the way?

However, in this way, Gehrman can lead his army to threaten the rear of our army. Two thousand enemies is not a small number. They can even directly send troops to attack the four eastern countries. Condela questioned.

Of course it is impossible to let them act. Richard said with a sneer, he waved his hand to make the imperial soldiers who reported the report retreat, and then said: Leave the suspects as the main force to continue to besiege this fortress, but in fact , our army has moved westward, heading straight for Fort Cochrane!

Good strategy. Condela's eyes lit up and he nodded, but then he asked a question: If Gehrman sees through the suspicious soldiers and breaks out, how should we respond?

My dear Condela, there is no perfect tactic in the world, and every tactic must be prepared to fail. Richard reminded with a smile, However, in order to avoid this failure, let us step into a situation where there is no redemption. , I will leave behind a coalition of a thousand imperial soldiers mixed with Danish soldiers, which will be commanded by Toolagris.

Let me command? Toolagris pointed at himself incredulously, Your Majesty, leave a thousand soldiers with the most combat effectiveness, what are you going to do? Going deep into the enemy's territory is dangerous, in case something goes wrong...

Toolagris didn't say the latter words, but everyone present knew what he meant.

Don't underestimate me.

Richard smiled and patted Toolagris on the shoulder, and said to the loyal Dane: My dear Tooragris, oh no, I should call you General Tooragris in the future, As long as you can firmly trap the rebels in this temporary fortress, I can fight on the front line with peace of mind.

But……

Toolagris wanted to continue to say something, but Richard interrupted him, saying: That's it, Tooragris, I hope you won't let me down.

Understood, Your Majesty. Now that Richard has said so much, Tooragris can't continue to shirk, so he can only promise.

Yeah. Seeing that Tooragris agreed, Richard also nodded. He straightened his armor and said, I will leave tomorrow night with the main force, Tooragris , after I leave, you must deal with it carefully, and don't let the rebels find any flaws.

This subordinate obeys the order, and will not let any of the rebels walk out of the fortress alive. Toolagris knelt on one knee and said solemnly.

While reaching out to support the loyal Danish commander, Richard made a joke: Of course, if you can capture this fortress by yourself and surprise me, I will be even happier.

Your Majesty, I will do my best.

Before that, I want to give our Chief Gehrman a gift. Richard said, looking at the rebel flag flying on the wall of the fortress in the distance, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

...

Look, that's Lord Sebas and the five knights who left with him!

On the wall of the fortress, a cry of exclamation suddenly sounded, and then the soldiers of the entire section of the wall rushed towards the wall, stretched their necks and looked outside, following their line of sight, six tied-up rebel soldiers were pushed out of the Royal Army's formation , Forced to kneel down on the ground, behind each of them stood two burly Danish soldiers, and the blade of the battle ax in their hands still reflected a cold light.

Sebas...how did they get captured alive?

The rebel commander Gehrman, who was quickly alarmed, came to the city wall and saw Sebastian among the six captives at a glance. However, Sebastian is now extremely embarrassed. Not only is his body covered with dust and weeds, he His face was also swollen in several places, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding. Not only him, but basically everyone who was captured.

We should go save them!

At this moment, a person on the city wall took the lead in shouting, and got the response of others. A group of people was about to walk down the city wall. Before Gehrman could make a sound, the officer beside him scolded Said: What do you want to do, go out to die?

But my lord, we can't just watch Sebas-sama and the others being killed by the enemy! A soldier in the crowd couldn't help but argue.

If you go out, you can only increase our losses for nothing! The officer continued to scold.

Stop arguing, the Royal Army is starting to move! At this moment, a soldier who was still observing the situation shouted in surprise, drawing everyone's attention back, and everyone turned their attention to the open space outside the city wall again. Look, their eye sockets are cracked, and their blood is filled!

In the eyes of everyone, a rebel knight on the far side was forcibly knocked down like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. The Danish soldier beside him directly raised his battle ax and slashed at his neck. The poor man Before the rebel knight could utter a scream, the body was separated, and blood gushed out, splashing several meters away.

The first person was killed by an axe. The knight next to him was already frightened, and he knelt there sluggishly. Even though the Danes pinned him to the ground, only when the tomahawk was struck down, blood flowed from the corner of his eyes. A crystal tear.

No, don't kill me, don't kill me...

The tragic death of the two comrades made the next knight almost crazy with fright, feces and urine flowed all over the ground, and the stench made the Danish soldiers beside him frown.

The next thing is to repeatedly hold down and behead. After killing five knights, finally came the rebel officer Sebastian. , Feeling the pain caused by the sand and gravel on his face, his eyes drifted to the distance, farther and farther, farther and farther away, as if he had returned to his hometown, to his wife who was waiting for him to return home...

After the execution, the blood-stained Danish soldiers picked up the heads of the six people, put them on their spears and held them up high, showing them to the rebels on the city wall in a demonstration.

Looking at the six heads, the rebels on the walls of the temporary fortress were boiling.
