On the continent of Searle, the noble castle is not only a symbol of power, but also a specialized military building, the embodiment of the ultimate defense.
Eagle Fort is located in the west of Howling City, and has always been responsible for blocking the high ground.
And Viscount Eagle Castle, Viscount Burle, and Earl of Blue Mountain are all of the purest blue blood, forming the core of the Blue Blood Alliance on Fengying Plain, rigidly and conservatively rejecting all external forces.
Until the arrival of Viscount Garcia disrupted all this.
With this person guarding the rear, the Earl of Lanshan was very relieved.
"In fact... the Viscount Eagle Fort betrayed us and his sacred blue blood. He opened the Eagle Fort, lowered the drawbridge, and let the knights from the highlands pass through the Death Canyon!"
Viscount Barle said in a dry tone: "When the pigeons were released, the coalition forces of the Highlands and Eagle Castle had already reached the surroundings of Howling City. With all of us already out, I really don't think how long Howling Castle can resist... at last In the worst case, Wind Howl City has already fallen, and we are about to face the front and rear attacks of the highland coalition forces and Viscount Garcia!"
The Earl of Lanshan sat down on the chair at once, his eyes were lost, and he was speechless for a long time.
The current situation is naturally extremely dangerous.
The fall of Howling Castle not only means the loss of all previous strategic advantages and food and grass support, but for the Earl of Blue Mountain, this is the loss of his own ruling authority!
Once it falls, it means that the rule of the blue bloods on the Fengying Plain is already in jeopardy.
"damn it!"
He suddenly stood up and roared: "Garcia doesn't want to defeat me, what he wants to perish is the entire blue blood class!"
Boom!
The nobles in the entire camp suddenly panicked. They cursed Viscount Garcia loudly and shifted responsibility from each other. Their eyes looked around uneasily, as if a mole was looking for a tunnel to escape.
"Withdraw immediately! Now! Immediately!"
The Earl of Blue Mountain stood up, knowing that all the hesitation now is just to increase the chance of victory for the opponent: "Let's withdraw our troops immediately and return to help Wind Howling Castle!"
"The city walls and fortresses there are the strongest in the entire Fengying Plain, and they must be able to support us until we go back!"
As for retreating rashly, what Garcia would do on the opposite side, the Earl of Blue Mountain no longer wanted to think about it, nor did he dare to think about it.
Many nobles stepped out of the camp one after another, and immediately the entire military camp was boiling.
It is beyond the ability of the nobles to call back soldiers who have been addicted to alcohol and women.
And they were even more astonished to discover that the news that Wind Howl City had fallen had spread like a hurricane in the barracks, reaching the ears of every soldier in an instant.
"grown ups!"
Wu Ming returned to his camp, and immediately saw Ava, Jack, Marlette and other subordinates who had come.
"Send my military order, and our camp will be on alert immediately!"
He looked at the noisy barracks with worry in his eyes. Even if such a big commotion did not happen, once Viscount Garcia came to steal the camp, it would definitely bring huge troubles.
Fortunately, Wu Ming had already made preparations. Not only did he have 500 soldiers and 500 cavalry in full force, but he also ordered them in order. He barely had the capital to fight.
…
early morning.
The dewdrops were still hanging on the green grass, but the army camp of the Earl of Blue Mountain was in chaos.
After a noisy night, these nobles finally began to withdraw their troops. After all, the betrayal of the Viscount Eagle Castle brought not only the crisis of Howling Castle, but also the danger of the opening of the Fengying Plain. With the possibility of surprise raids on all the territories, no nobleman has the heart to fight against Viscount Garcia here.
In the chaotic army, Wu Ming's five hundred private soldiers and the surrounding cavalry were particularly dazzling.
"I may think too highly of Viscount Garcia..."
He was riding on a war horse, thinking of the stolen camp that he had waited for all night last night, he couldn't help but secretly sighed.
Obviously, even though Garcia's soldiers are relatively elite, their military discipline is not much better, and Garcia's ability may not be able to handle such a difficult task.
Fighting at night, the requirements for soldiers are too high, if you do it reluctantly, maybe you will get separated and become a joke.
Of course, Wu Ming secretly guessed that the reason why Viscount Garcia didn't take the risk was because he was sure that Howling Castle had already fallen, and the Earl of Blue Mountain had already fallen into control, and there was no need to take any more risks when he entered the desperate situation of death.
"Yes or no, it will appear immediately!"
Wu Ming slowed down his mount and came to the rear.
Tread!
A faint shock came, and a sneer appeared on his face immediately.
"Jack! Order our soldiers, be alert immediately! Get closer to the cavalry!"
After the order was issued, it didn't take long before the sound of horseshoes came from behind, and many knights rushed out. The red lion banner bared its teeth and claws, roaring ferociously, trying to tear its prey apart.
"Baron William! The Earl is calling for you!"
A fast horse flew over, and Lord Richard was on board, but at this moment, he was like a frightened quail, trembling, and he didn't have the slightest bit of prestige from last night.
Only then did he understand the value of knights and power.
"My baron, bring all the cavalry to protect me!"
As soon as he saw Wu Ming, the Earl of Blue Mountain couldn't wait to announce the order. He looked haggard, but he was wearing armor: "If we abandon all the infantry, how long will it take to reach Wind Howling City?"
"Two days is enough..."
Wu Ming shook his head: "It's just the Earl, are you going to let the horse mount the city wall to protect your castle?"
In siege warfare, the role of cavalry is far inferior to that of infantry.
"Baron William, carry out the order!"
Standing beside the Earl of Blue Mountain, Richard regained his arrogance.
Wu Ming shook his head secretly.
In such a situation where the army's morale is scattered and the enemy is attacking from the tail, the most sensible choice is to send a real elite rear, the army may still have a glimmer of life.
But now, the Earl has obviously lost his position, and actually wants to gather all the mobile forces to his side to escape!
"I'm sorry to inform you that it is no longer possible..."
Wu Ming pointed in the direction of Wind Howling City: "Look!"
The Earl of Blue Mountain and Richard looked around, and their whole bodies were shocked.
red!
A dazzling red, like a flame burning the world, slowly emerged on the horizon.
When they got closer, they realized that it was a wave of cavalry wearing red armor. On the brightly colored banner, the roaring army's coat of arms was extremely conspicuous.
"We're surrounded by red lions!"
The whole team came to a standstill, falling into panic and confusion.
As expected, the powerful family on the opposite side did not leave the Earl of Blue Mountain with the slightest chance. After capturing Wind Howl Castle, they immediately mobilized their elites and prepared to attack from both sides, destroying all the blue blood here.
"No! They can't do that!"
The count of Lanshan lost all color on his face: "I want to send an envoy to ask for negotiations! According to the rules among nobles, they can't treat me like this!"
The red armies on both sides came oppressively and surrounded the private soldiers of the blue blood nobles.
The Earl of Blue Mountain immediately sent Richard as his representative of surrender.
But before the Lord of Honor rode his horse to the army formation, he was shot into a honeycomb by a shower of arrows!
All the blue-blooded nobles who saw this scene had cold hands and feet, knowing that the other party had no intention of peace talks at all. The Xiongshi family from the highlands was ready to annex the entire Fengying Plain, and their blue-blooded group was no longer needed.
"Eagle Eye!"
Wu Ming climbed up a small hill, and the power of all peoples turned into the power of magic, and cast a witch's magic.
His astonishing perception, coupled with his keen eyesight, made him discover the reality of the enemy at once.
"To be able to come so quickly, the direction of Howling Castle is indeed full of cavalry, about 1,000! In the rear, Viscount Garcia's army has 3,000 soldiers! But with a force of 4,000, the blue bloods may not be without strength. It's a pity. …”
Wu Ming looked at his army.
The hustle and bustle of the night, coupled with the rebellion in the rear, and the inner hesitation, not only made the blue blood nobles lose their courage and confidence, but also the soldiers below were at a loss.
After the panic spread, this army has been completely defeated. As long as the enemy charges again, many soldiers here will degenerate into peasants, even if their number is equal to or even slightly exceeded by the enemy!
"Bring Baron Terry, Baron Wilfer, and Lord Tana, we are ready to break out!"
Wu Ming took a deep breath.
He originally had 500 soldiers, and many of his cavalry responded to the call of his lord and went back to protect their nobles, but more people chose to stay. In this way, plus the army of the other three nobles , Wu Ming has more than a thousand troops in his hands!
Even in the original blue tiger army, it is still an important proportion.
"Baron William!"
Soon, three little nobles in military uniforms arrived, all with apprehensive expressions on their faces.
"When the battle starts, we choose to break out, the target..."
Wu Ming pointed at the cavalry behind with a whip: "The Highland Knights Alliance!"
These cavalry came from the highlands, captured Wind Howling Castle, and immediately came to intercept the Earl of Blue Mountain without stopping. They seemed unstoppable, but in fact they were at the end of their strength. As long as an attack exceeded their tolerance, they would start to collapse. Make way for birth.
This is also the only way to preserve a lot of strength.
Otherwise, even if the other nobles can break through under the protection of the knights, they will inevitably leave all their private soldiers here, flee back to the trembling castle in the territory, and be defeated one by one by the highland knights.
Originally, Baron Terry and the others still didn't understand, but after Wu Ming explained, they immediately showed admiration.
Woohoo!
The next moment, the loud bugle sounded.
The attack of the red lions has begun!
