Chapter 52 The Battle of Eden
"Ah..." A soldier yawned in Eden.
He was waiting for the soldiers who had changed defenses, and he was already very tired after standing all night.
Finally, he looked back in the city many times and finally saw a group of soldiers slowly walking towards the city gate. It was the Eden City defender who replaced them.
The Alton Empire, which had been in peace all year round, except for a limited number of troops that maintained high-intensity training, the rest of the local defenders and noble private soldiers were neglected in military affairs.
This cannot be blamed for this. After all, in the Alton Empire, no one would want to join the army as long as they were not the kind of person who could not survive. A good man would not join the army. This sentence is very popular in Alton. Because of the developed business environment, the emergence of capitalism was the germination of the Senate, and the Senate was also a national product of this stage.
When Zhou Yunfei was studying the situation on the mainland, he was very concerned about the Alton Empire.
As a modern person, Zhou Yunfei clearly knew that the Alton Empire was in a form of transformation from feudalism to capitalism. However, due to the special external environment of the Ross continent, not only human society, this process has been going slowly.
In the Alton Empire, business prosperity has long been achieved. People can get a certain salary by working in shops or participating in labor, so as long as they can survive a little, no one will be willing to risk life and death to join the army.
This also explains the reasons for the military evacuation of the Alton Empire in disguise.
As a relatively famous force in the northwest of the Alton Empire, the Eden family has established business through business throughout the ages.
After being attacked by the Dragon City Caravan, the Eden family repeatedly proposed to crack down on the Dragon City Caravan at the Senate meeting. However, due to the interference of many opposition forces, these proposals were repeatedly shelved. The plan to assassinate Zhou Yunfei was planned by the Eden family and the Barrow family in private. However, when they acted, they fought the banner of the Senate, which made many other members of the Senate quite dissatisfied. However, instead of shrinking, Long City further increased its commercial scope in the Alton Empire, which made the Senate pass the plan to crack down on the Dragon City for the first time, thus creating a series of previous assassination plans and actions.
The destruction of the Barrow family once made the Eden family members panic all day long. However, after waiting for half a month without any movement, and the Senate and the Byvost Empire reached an agreement, the "perfect" resolution of this conflict was paid, which also made the Eden family members relieved.
But little did he know that the Second Army led by Zhao Yun had arrived at the city of Eden!
When the soldier on the front of the city saw that the soldiers who had changed their defense arrived, he ignored the cumbersome verification procedures and walked down the city wall to prepare to leave.
The soldiers who handed over were used to it and allowed the replacement soldiers to leave. These links that had to go through every day were already used to. In this city of Eden, where there was no war, even bandits and thieves in the north did not dare to come to the city of Eden, which was "harshly garrisoned". Therefore, these cumbersome procedures became boring processes.
While yawning and rubbing his sore eyes, the soldiers were about to leave the city and return to the warm bed to have a good sleep.
Before this alternation process was over, a hundred tiger and leopard cavalry who had already ambushed near the city gate rushed towards the empty city gate.
Seeing the tiger and leopard cavalry rushing towards them, the soldiers who were about to change defense were all stunned. They were completely confused about the situation and lacked good training and measures, which caused them to be caught off guard.
Facing the defenders of more than 300 Eden City, the tiger and leopard cavalry dismounted, formed a three-person sharp knife formation, waving the sharp swords, and killed the dazed Eden soldiers.
After losing dozens of soldiers, a leading officer reacted and shouted loudly: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Under his shout, the confused Eden defenders resisted in chaos.
But they were facing the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry! They were the elite among the elites in the Dragon City! The skillful tactics, excellent equipment, and inner anger made Eden's defenders retreat step by step, and their completely overwhelming strength made the battle at the city gate end in a very short time.
No tiger and leopard cavalry died, only a dozen injured soldiers, and their good tactical qualities and excellent protection all suffered only a little injury!
The gap, this is the gap between the two sides.
After controlling the crucial city gate, the city's intelligence personnel put the fireworks they accompanied into the air.
The 20,000 cavalrymen of the Second Army waiting outside Eden City were paying attention to the direction of Eden City.
Zhao Yun held the reins tightly. Suddenly, a bright red track appeared above Eden City, and then with a "bang" in the air, a beautiful firework bloomed.
Zhao Yun took a deep breath, then shouted loudly at the soldiers of the Second Army: "Go!"
The team was quickly divided into two parts. The first team was led by Dian Wei, with a number of up to 10,000 people. They were responsible for rushing into the city, quickly occupying important city defense areas, and destroying all resistance forces in the city.
The second team was led by Ma Chao, and he would be responsible for commanding the remaining 10,000 cavalry, scattered among four city gates and many trade routes, intercepting and killing all those who ran out of Eden City!
Whether it is Dian Wei or Ma Chao, the orders he received are all unforgivable!
In other words, this revenge operation will be full of blood! However, for the Second Army, this is not enough! It is far from enough!
After receiving the order, the first team led by Dian Wei quickly formed a marching team and accelerated toward the city gate.
The advance team that controlled the city gate was waiting bored. The evacuated city defense in Eden City allowed them to open the city gate leisurely without even reacting heavily in the city.
This cannot be blamed on the defenders of Eden City. They have received news of the enemy's attack. But in a panic, the soldiers did not see the generals and the generals ignored the soldiers.
The lord of Eden City and the younger brother of the patriarch of the Eden family, Jerrys Eden, is angrily scolding the general in front of him.
"Bastard! Who is it? Who dares to provoke the Eden family! What about your army? Why don't you defeat the enemy yet!" The rebuked general was suffering and was neglected to guard all year round. The defenders of Eden City only had more than 3,000, and most of them were untrained soldiers. Is this possible?
Not to mention that I don’t know what the other party is now, it will take half a day to assemble the troops in the city and private soldiers of the noble merchants! Now the entire city of Eden is in chaos, what can he use to resist?
Just as the two of them were talking, Dian Wei's troops had already entered the city through the opened city gate!
Following the advance preparation, the intelligence personnel immediately contacted Dian Wei.
The city defense base in Eden City, the location of the main aristocratic merchants, the location of the city lord's mansion and the garrisoning forces were all obtained by intelligence personnel.
This great gift made the Second Army feel like it was a treasure. It quickly divided into many squads, and 10,000 Second Army soldiers ran on the spacious roads in the city.
Many people looked at the Second Army running on the street in a daze. These weird knights with black hair and black eyes were all murderous. Although they couldn't figure out the situation, the people subconsciously thought that big things were not good, and almost everyone hid in their homes, afraid of causing trouble. And more merchants and nobles, when they saw the black "Han" characters on the dragon flag raised by the knights, their faces turned pale, and they quickly packed up their fines and prepared to escape from Eden City.
"They are the Longcheng army! They are here to take revenge!" Such thoughts fill the minds of every noble businessman who sees the Dragon Banner.
Dian Wei led five hundred cavalry to run straight towards the city lord's mansion!
The City Lord's Mansion has more than 700 private soldiers from the Eden family, and these private soldiers are elite soldiers built by the Eden family for a lot of money!
After receiving the enemy's entry into the city, Jerry Eden, who was commanding the soldiers at the gate of the lord's mansion, cursing the Second Army. Until now, he still believed that this was just a bandit or thief who had eaten bear gall, and wanted to come to Eden City to get a vote. But when he saw the Second Army rushing to the streets in the distance and the bright red-bottomed dragon flag flying in front of the team, he seemed to have been exhausted in an instant.
"Dragon...Dragon...Dragon City!" The trembling words made Jerrys Eden, who saw the dragon flag, look pale and sweating in cold sweat!
He never expected that it was the arrival of the Dragon City army! Aren’t they afraid of provoking war between the two countries? These madmen actually dared to go deep into the empire! Are they not afraid of death? These thoughts flashed through Jerry’s mind in an instant.
Don’t worry about the answers to these questions. You can only survive by repelling the enemy!
Jerrys Eden's elite family soldiers, each holding single swords and shields, arranged in several formations to prepare to fight the charge of the Second Army.
When the two sides were about two hundred meters apart, Dian Wei roared first, and then the tiger and leopard cavalry behind him adjusted their team.
Most of the cavalry charged in the city were arranged in wedge formations, so Dian Wei was the first to become the most cutting-edge point!
One hundred meters!
The tiger and leopard cavalry began to accelerate uniformly.
With only three breaths, the charge speed will be increased to the highest level!
Jerrys Eden looked at the rushing cavalry with trembling eyes. The first time he saw the family soldiers who were charging at the cavalry, each of them was frightened! Several even threw down their weapons and turned to escape! Many of these new recruits who had never been on the battlefield were so scared that they peeed in their pants by the pressure brought by the cavalry charge!
This is no joke, few people can calmly face the rushing cavalry.
In a short distance, Dian Wei put down the reins of the horse and clamped the war horse under him with his legs. He pulled out the two halberds behind his back with his hands, and his bloodthirsty face made Dian Wei now look like an evil ghost in hell.
"Kill!" Dian Wei's roar resonated with the Second Army at its peak speed behind him.
Chapter completed!
