Chapter 93: Back to the Imperial Capital

Chapter 93: Back to the Imperial Capital

At this time, it was almost dusk, on the main battlefield in Solade Town, the only street in the town.Almost all the main forces of Emperor Pang Xin's army were gathered here, struggling to resist the tide-like attack of the enemy.

The line of defense has been breached, and countless soldiers of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom rushed over, and the blocking battle has turned into a melee.Commander Higgins bravely took the lead, slashing with his sword, and shouted loudly: "The warriors of the empire, the time has come to sacrifice your life to serve the motherland and the goddess! As soon as it gets dark, we will be the victors! The empire will never forgetEven if all of us die here today, our heroic souls will be remembered by the people forever! In order to be worthy of our loved ones, worthy of the land that gave birth to us and raised us! Warriors, join me in heroism!"

"Fight it!" Countless soldiers of the Pangxin Empire roared and rushed towards the enemy soldiers with all their might.Use your own life and blood to defend the dignity of this land!

The battle can no longer be described as tragic, it is truly heroic!In the melee, the captain of the 18th Battalion died heroically for his country!The 20th captain sacrificed heroically!General Lipsko's left arm had been cut off by the enemy, and a feathered arrow had been shot in his back, but his eyes were still red, and he rushed into the crowd of enemy soldiers with a roar.

However, there are still more and more enemy soldiers. After killing a group, more groups rushed up again.At the town's entrance in the distance, there are still a large number of enemy main forces pouring in continuously!The battle in Solad Town has reached its final moment!

At this moment, every soldier in the town who was fighting suddenly felt the ground tremble slightly.Then, far away behind the town, there was a faint roar: "Salmondo!"

Hearing the extremely familiar sound of the cavalry charge, all the soldiers of the empire became excited.This is the unique roar of the imperial guard cavalry, and it is the death charge that only General Buck's troops can roar!Reinforcements are coming!The cavalry is coming!General Barker did not forget them. At this most critical moment, Salmondo's roar appeared in time!

Commander Higgins jumped onto several obstacle bunkers piled up with boulders, and looked behind the town.On the plain, dust was flying and hooves were rumbling.A huge imperial cavalry is galloping at the fastest speed.

The familiar flag and the familiar roar made the strong Commander Higgins burst into tears.He turned around, raised his sword and shouted suddenly: "Salmondo!"

Although most of the remaining defenders of the Pangxin Empire are not cavalry, what does it matter?At this moment, the name of General Buck is the slogan of victory and the slogan of charge!It is the slogan of death!More than 10,000 living soldiers of the Fourth Army also immediately shouted: "Salmondo!"

The earth shook even more violently!In the blink of an eye, the cavalry had rushed to the entrance of the town.Another deafening roar: "Salmondo!"

The soldiers of the Fourth Army knew that the cavalry was about to start charging, and immediately retreated to both sides like a tide.But the soldiers of the Zhuanghan Kingdom forgot to chase and kill them. They also saw this cavalry that seemed to descend from the sky. The momentum of an angry lion and thunderous thunder shocked them petrified!

I don't know who was the first to shout: "The enemy cavalry is coming! Run!" The crowd who received them was in chaos, and countless people turned around and started running wildly.

Fighting against the cavalry on the street, the only end is to be trampled to death by horseshoes.As soon as these tens of thousands of soldiers turned around, they immediately crowded together with the troops that had just poured into the town.The small street was suddenly chaotic and crowded!

The cavalry are coming to town!The charge number has become a battle number: "Kill!" The dozen or so riders in the lead plunged head-on into the crowd of enemy soldiers, and immediately there were sounds of collision, wailing, and bone cracking.The cavalry didn't stop, and urged their horses to rush straight into the crowd.Then dozens of riders, hundreds of riders and even thousands of riders rushed forward.For a while, the enemy only hated his parents for giving him two missing legs, and they retreated from the entrance of the town crying and shouting.

At this time, Duke Wenhan, the commander of Zhuanghan Kingdom, had already led his follow-up troops through the filled ditch.Originally thought that today's victory is in hand, and the enemy will be wiped out and defended.While he was excited, he suddenly saw the troops in front of him in chaos. The soldiers who had just entered the town ran out desperately, even disrupting the troops outside the town.

He couldn't help saying angrily: "What's going on? Why are the troops in such a panic?"

"Report...Report to your lord! It's not good!" A captain-level officer rushed over and shouted in a panic: "My lord, the enemy suddenly came with a support army, all of which are cavalry troops. Our army is all infantry, I can't resist it!"

"What?" Duke Wenhan was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "How many enemy cavalry are here?"

"No... I don't know, there are many, many, I can't count. I think it is at least five thousand!"

"Five thousand horses?" Duke Wen Khan couldn't help but gasped, originally five thousand horses wasn't too scary.However, since the main cavalry force was surrounded and wiped out by the defenders of the Pangxin Empire, the enemy has an absolute advantage in the number of cavalry!

On the plains, no matter how many infantry there are, if they encounter the impact of cavalry, they will have to flee to avoid it.In such a messy scene, it is impossible to carry out arrow attack.Could it be that they were about to successfully capture the town of Solade today, but at the last moment, they lost all their achievements?

The retreat of the soldiers who entered the town quickly caused panic and anxiety among the tens of thousands of soldiers who were still outside the town.Then, the cavalry of the Ponsin Empire appeared at the entrance of the town.Ten rides, fifty rides, hundreds of rides, thousands of rides.Accompanied by the shout of killing, he rushed into the infantry formation of Zhuanghan Kingdom desperately.

In order to survive, the panicked soldiers didn't care about maintaining formation and obeying orders.With a cry, they all turned around and ran away.With this run, all the soldiers couldn't stand up, and in an instant, it turned into a complete defeat for the entire army!

In the town, Commander Haxa, who led the cavalry galloping for a long time and crossed the Pangzu Mountains non-stop, and rushed to reinforce in time, had already met Commander Higgins!Not much to say, Haxa saluted first, and said: "Commander Higgins, you have worked hard! The general ordered me to lead the cavalry to come for reinforcements!"

Commander Higgins also saluted, and said: "It's just in time! Thank you for arriving in time. The town of Solade is still in the hands of our army so far!"

Haxa nodded and said: "The battle is still going on, I will lead the cavalry to pursue the victory. You lead your men to reorganize the defense line, see you later!"

"Okay! See you later!"

On the stone building at the corner of the small street, Zhu Di also saw the imperial cavalry rushing into the town. He shook Keya in excitement and shouted happily: "Did you see it? Did you see it? It's our cavalry! It's our cavalry!"Our reinforcements! That's it! We're saved! We won't die!"

Keya had no choice but to grin his teeth and said: "Wow! Oh, I saw it! Don't shake it, my wound hurts like hell!"

Outside the town, Duke Wenhan hissed and ordered the soldiers not to retreat.But the big defeat is already unstoppable!Under the violent impact of the cavalry of the Pangxin Empire, hundreds of thousands of infantrymen of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom threw away their helmets and armor and fled.In desperation, Duke Wenhan had no choice but to turn his horse's head around and retreat in panic with the flow of people.

This run covered almost fifty miles.Countless soldiers of the Kingdom of Zhuang Khan were scattered and killed along the way.After finally retreating to a small town, there were less than 50,000 soldiers around Duke Wenhan.

By this time, it was already dark.The Haksa cavalry retreated at night.In this battle, King Zhuang Khan's team was seriously injured and frightened.It is impossible to reorganize the army before counterattacking in a short time.

The town of Solade finally calmed down.After Ke Ya was carried back to the room by Judy, he found that Keya's wound had ruptured and blood was constantly oozing out.This panic made Zhu Di hurriedly apply medicine to bandage him again, and after a long time, the bleeding finally stopped.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and Britney, covered in blood, strode in and said with a smile: "Master, our army won a big victory in today's battle. The enemy was defeated by our cavalry and fled.Within, we will definitely not be able to attack our defense line again!"

When Ke Ya saw the blood on her body, he couldn't help being taken aback, and shouted: "Are you injured? Why didn't you go and bandage it and come here? Do you want to die?"

Britney smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a small injury. Most of my blood was splashed on me by the enemy. It looks scary, but it's actually not serious!"

Zhu Di hurriedly picked up the bandage powder again, and came over and said, "A little injury needs to be treated, let me see, where are you injured?"

Britney didn't refuse, she sat on the bed, took off the bloody clothes on her body, and said, "It's probably on the shoulders and back, I'm too involved in the fight, I don't know it myself, help me find it.look."

In a blink of an eye, Britney was stripped naked.Sure enough, she saw two shallow knife wounds on her left shoulder and back.In addition, there were many bruises and abrasions on the right arm and lower abdomen.When Keya saw her, he couldn't help but hold her hand distressedly, and said, "Britney, thank you for your hard work! I want you to lead the swordsman team to fight for me, and I'm so sorry for suffering so many injuries!"

Britney also took Keya's hand backhand, and said with a smile: "Look at you, what do we have between you and me? Didn't you say that we are of one heart? Besides, although I am your servant,But they are also soldiers of the empire. Isn’t it right to fight for the empire?”

Keya smiled and said, "Thank you! After I go back, I will ask the great saint to save you from slavery and restore your status as a free person. From now on, you don't need to call me master!"

At this time, Judy had already started to bandage Britney.Britney raised her hand to facilitate Judy's treatment, and said: "Actually, it's the same, I'm like a free man now. Besides, even if you regain your identity, you will always be my master. This is true.There is no way to change it!"

Keya said: "Whoever said that there is no way to change it, as long as you become a free man, you can be justified..." Before he finished speaking, Britney suddenly saw the bandage on Keya's leg, which seemed to have a new leak.There were bloodstains, and he said in surprise: "Huh? Is your wound bleeding again? Judy, what's going on?"

Judy raised her mouth and complained: "What's more, Ke Ya is not honest at all lying here. When he heard the sound of fighting outside, he insisted on going out to join the battle. I refused, and he was still in a hurry with me. So,I had no choice but to carry him out. The wound was ruptured after being moved, and I had to treat him again."

"Really?" Britney suddenly became anxious, turned her head and shouted to Keya: "Oh my master! Why are you so unconscious? With such a serious injury, why do you fight? Your life is comparable toWe are precious, and in case of excessive bloodshed, the Holy Church will not spare us. Besides, if you don’t think about yourself, you have to think about Anne and Judy.”

Keya had no choice but to surrender, and said with a wry smile: "Okay! I was wrong, and I won't dare to do it again next time, okay?"

Britney didn't have much to say about her master.Then he reached out and lifted off the clothes covering Keya's lower body, and looked at it and said, "How is it now? Has the bleeding stopped? Don't be careless about such an important place!"

Keya hurriedly shouted: "It's all right, quickly cover it back, I...I..."

Britney was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously put down her hand, didn't speak, just raised her head and looked at Keya with a smile.Ke Ya could only blushed, and turned his head away from looking at Britney's naked upper body.

At this moment, Judy leaned down while bandaging Britney, and whispered something in her ear.Britney couldn't help but giggled after hearing this, and said, "Really? Hehe, this is a good sign!"

After the defeat of the Zhuanghan Kingdom, they did not dare to attack Solade Town again.The entire second day, the defense line of the Ponsin Empire passed in peace.When it was dark, according to General Barker's order, the troops began to retreat in an orderly manner.After the cavalry was cut off, about 17,000 soldiers who were still capable of fighting, and more than 6,000 seriously wounded who did not die, took advantage of the moonlight to embark on the road back to the imperial capital.The Battle of Solade Town has come to an end.

In these four days of fighting, plus the last 5,000 cavalry, the Pangxin Empire invested a total of 85,000 troops.When they withdrew from the battle at this moment, there were less than 30,000 seriously wounded.In other words, more than 55,000 soldiers of the Pangxin Empire died in this battle!

The army of the Zhuanghan Kingdom was even worse. Afterwards, they recollected the lost soldiers and counted the number and losses.It was discovered that there were originally a huge 200,000 dispatched army, not including the wounded, but at this moment there were less than 80,000 people who were still able to fight.The loss was so huge that it almost lost the strategic threat to the Poncin Empire.And in the last battle, the cavalry of the Pangxin Empire killed the courage of King Zhuang Khan's army.Knowing that they had already started to retreat, King Zhuang Khan dared not pursue them.

On March 25, 208 in the imperial calendar, the troops of the Pangxin Empire that had withdrawn from the defense line of Solade Town returned safely to the imperial capital.At this time, millions of refugees had all withdrawn into the imperial capital two days earlier.General Barker also led his troops to fight with the pursuers of the Kingdom of Tankax 20 miles away from the imperial capital, annihilating more than 20,000 enemies and forcing the enemy's main force to retreat 30 miles.

After that, Buck's main force withdrew into the imperial capital.That day, on the training ground of the barracks, General Barker saw the remnants of the Fourth Army who were still neatly lined up despite being ragged and exhausted.Rao was such a tough guy, but he burst into tears and couldn't say a word.

But a soldier has a soldier's expression, and he salutes these warriors, living and dead!Thank them for their sacrifices for the motherland!

It was very windy that day, and countless flags in the barracks were blown by the strong wind and crackled.But no one in the entire barracks spoke. The living soldiers had no sorrow, only firmness!When General Barker saluted them, they returned the salute.They looked at General Buck silently, expressing their determination to serve the country with the highest military etiquette!

That day, Ke Ya returned to the Holy Cult and received magical treatment from Master Fania.The great saint came to visit Keya in person. Although she inadvertently lost her concern for him, she still ordered him to go back and report to General Buck immediately after he recovered from his injury.Assist General Buck to defend the imperial capital!

At this moment, in the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms, except for the Imperial Army of Roverdo, the troops of the other two countries have already approached the imperial capital.It's just that they fought all the way and suffered heavy losses, so they didn't dare to launch a siege battle.They had no choice but to set up camp far away, while resting, while waiting for the arrival of Roverdo's army.

After Ke Ya recovered from his injury, he didn't bother to go home and take a look. He just asked Britney to report to his mother and sister that he was safe.He ran directly to General Buck's frontline headquarters and reported to General Buck.It's just that General Buck happened to be going to the palace to attend the emergency combat meeting convened by His Majesty at this moment, and he hasn't returned yet.He was stopped by the soldiers guarding the entrance of the headquarters, so he had to wait outside the headquarters, walking up and down anxiously.

At this time, only the sound of horseshoes was heard, and a fast horse came running in the distance.When Keya heard this, he thought that General Barker had returned, so he hurried up to take a look.But the person on the horse is not Buck, but Diana, the daughter of General Buck.

Diana also saw Keya. After galloping to him, she pulled the horse rope and stopped immediately, "Keya, what are you doing here?"

Keya had no choice but to smile bitterly and said, "The great saint ordered me to report to your father and assist your father in defending the imperial capital!"

Diana jumped off the horse and said, "Then what are you doing here? Go in and meet my dad!"

"Your father is not here, the guard said to see His Majesty. I can't enter the command post casually, so I have to wait here."

When Diana heard this, she said, "Then you come with me. I know my father's guards, and they dare not stop me. Let's go inside and wait. I just need to find him too!"

Sure enough, the soldiers guarding the door did not dare to stop Diana when they saw her.After Diana swaggered in with Ke Ya, she went directly to the command center.Everyone in the command center at the moment looks busy, and no one has time to take care of them.Those who knew Diana took the time to say hello to her, and then went on with their work.

Diana didn't care, she just found a stool and sat down, and asked Keya: "I heard that you went to participate in the battle of Solade Town? How is it? After returning from the battlefield, how do you feel?"

Keya was stunned, and said: "Only after returning from the battlefield did I deeply feel the preciousness and beauty of peace! Only then did I know that we must love life and life! Only then did I understand the greatness and nobility of soldiers! Only then did I understand that even death,Die with dignity and meaning too! This is how I feel after returning from the battlefield."

"Really?" Diana sighed softly, and said, "Actually, I also want to go to fight like you. But my mother won't let me, saying that my father has already gone to fight. If even my only daughter goesIf not, how can she live! Alas! I have no choice but to stay at home obediently."

Keya smiled, and when he was about to speak, he heard a long laugh from outside, and someone said: "Don't listen to your mother, my Buck's daughter must have such ambition, is it true that the country is in crisis and she still hides at home to embroider?"?”

Diana immediately jumped up, ran to the door and shouted, "Dad! You've been back a long time ago, why don't you go home and have a look?"

At this time, the figure of General Buck appeared at the door.He hugged his daughter tightly and said with a smile, "Where do I have the time? Since I came back, I have been so busy that I haven't even drank my saliva! Huh? Keya, are you here? Great, I was looking for youWoolen cloth."
