~: 1305 Battle of the Eastward Advance (1)

Ilru

The Illu Fortress, which stands between the mountains and the mountains, stretches for several miles, forming a connected situation. Almost all the arrow towers and the inner ring of the three fortresses are made of granite weighing several tons. Between the stone joints, the Normans use an unknown mixture of white stones to bond the stones firmly. Together, as the eastern barrier of Normandy, the main purpose of the construction of the Illu Fortress was aimed at the northeastern rival Principality of Romana,

To this end, the Normans used a lot of manpower and material resources. Almost all the young and middle-aged labor in the Irru area was evacuated. It took six years to build this solid fortress among the steep mountains. The whole fortress is like a ground tiger lying in a mountain valley. Staring at the fierce eyes, the predominantly staring at the enemies in front of it, as if someone would dare to offend it, it will immediately return with the most ferocious fangs, in fact, indeed, in the past fifty years, Romana In the Principality’s war against Normandy, on several occasions, the Irru Fortress was hit with blood and ran into awkward..

"It's really a strong fortress. No wonder the army of the Principality of Normandy dared to speak wildly and look at the northwest region!"

Statunko put down his peeping mirror and gazed at the front, praising the majestic fortress in front of him. With the capture of the capital of Normandy, the fortress of Illu has become the last line of life and death that the Normans adhered to.

After receiving a personal order from the fat man, Statunko held an emergency meeting, abandoning the plan for further advancement, and instead led the 15,000-south southern army in a hurry to turn to the direction of Illu and pursue the Nord remnants. The Second Cavalry Banner Regiment meets at the Illu Fortress..

"Sir, does your majesty have some filtering?" A head of the Southern Army's flag, next to Statunko, was somewhat dissatisfied and whispered. "Even the Normandy remnants are here. But this fortress is only a border barrier after all, There will be no impact on inland operations. His Majesty Falcon asked us to abandon our plan to continue the march and turn to Illu. Our subordinates couldn’t figure it out!” “If you can’t figure it out, continue to think, but you must execute His Majesty’s order!”

Statunko withdrew his gaze from a distance and snorted heavily to his unruly subordinates, saying, "Although your majesty did not express it in the letter, I can feel that your majesty should have noticed something. Victory." Brilliance is the easiest way to cover up potential dangers. Don’t you think that the whole area of ​​Normandy is too quiet? Isn’t this a normal reaction?" "Too quiet? What do you mean, sir?" "Blank face" If one of them suddenly ran out of an unknown person in the morning and beat your neighbor hard in front of you, what would you do?" Statunko stared at the distance Fortress outline, smiled at the corner of the mouth

"Of course it is to help the neighbors!" said the leader of the Southern Army Banner without hesitation. "Otherwise, what if he hit the neighbors and then hit me?"

"Yeah, that's it!" Statunko's voice stopped. Say "We beat the Normans, but there are no movements in other critical countries, don't you think it's too abnormal?"

"Adult is saying that several other countries are waiting for the opportunity. Eat us and the Normans!" The head of the Southern Army Banner suddenly realized

The **** Statunko solemnly raised the whip and pointed to the far-reaching Illu fortress. "The Normandy terrain is surrounded by the sea on three sides and facing the mainland, and the center line on this side is Illu in front of us. The northwest of Illu is Dunker, the southwest is Romana, and the flank is the city of Beyond. Taking Illu, we can guarantee at least one back is safe, just like fighting with people. In the case of solitary power, naturally, the less exposed, the better, so that we can avoid falling into the crisis of fighting on several sides!"

The strong battle of Illu Fortress began in the early hours of February 27,

The Thunder Soldiers of the Southern Army Group pushed six special siege guns to the top of the **** opposite the fortress.

On both sides of the specially-made siege gun, there were more than 70 doors in total, and the Qu Shé Thor, which was dismantled from the navy battleship, became the last swan song of the Illu Fortress. "Debug angle, turn left 6 degrees."

After more than ten minutes, all the Thors have completed the aiming correction. The muzzle of the black hole is raised high, all in an ice cold killing intention. Everyone looks forward to aiming at the city wall of Illu immediately." Let’s start! "Stato Enke's face ordered indifferently that Thor's siege is not the first time for the Falcons, but this time the use of the rare siege Thor is something that makes many people feel very novel. ,

"Booming" with the first siege sound of the siege, the earth shivered slightly. With the huge siege gun roaring in an instant, the shells were drawn out of the barrel with a harsh roaring sound. A white curved line was drawn in the air, and it hit the first outer wall of the fortress of Illu,

The sound of a violent explosion seemed to come from the sky and the earth was thundery. Unfortunately, because of the barriers of the city walls, no one could see the landing point of the shells on the site. Nor could they see the power of the shells exploding, and could only wait anxiously for the observation post After a while, the observation post sent the message. The shell fell on the inner wall of the fortress. The gravel splashed like a raindrop, and the line formed a circle that destroyed about 100 meters in diameter.

The shock wave caused by the "huh" shells caused the Normandy people to clutter on the spot, and lay down a lot of people, some were hit by fragments, and some were scared to sit on the ground, and the pale face of the firelight, There was fear in his eyes, "Oh, what is this! "

The Ilru defender, who had never seen Thor, was chaotic on the spot and ran around, "Come on, take Lord Duke to a safe place!" Kavibod, who was still wearing gauze, was forced by a group of guards from his command post. Come out, the position of the first wall at the front of his commanding station, "Asshole, what are you going to do, I will not go! I will not die even if I die!" Kavibod screamed, the failure of the World War I, and the capital The fall of the northwest owl is no longer expecting anything. Now he just wants to fight the falcon army well. He wants to let the falcon army know that not all Normans are dead and swollen. The sound of the explosion came again, but this time it was dense, like lightning and thunder in a rainstorm. After confirmation of hitting the intended target, countless flames spewed out at the top of the hill opposite the fortress at the same time, and the ground shook, and the flames fell like a meteor, and the flames shone again, just like inside the Illu Fortress Lit the lights

Rumble...

The shells landed on the **** of the inner city ground of the fortress, blazing brightly, and the covered area was immediately completely covered by smoke and black smoke. The power of the siege artillery made everyone feel a little stunned. Many houses in the fortress are big. Some of them are piled up with stones and are very strong. However, in front of the siege cannon ground, these solid stone houses, like children's toy blocks, shattered apart. It seems that there are huge light **** in Iraq As Erlu rose, the stone house was uprooted, and the whole land flew into the air, and then fell down fiercely, making the large area below all messy. The screams and screams were one after another, and the smoke was scattered. Too much, that area is already in disarray, "Continue to strike and defeat them!"

Among these people, only Statunko’s face did not change at all, and his ruthless order made Ilru’s walls continue to shatter under the bombardment of large-caliber siege cannons. The walls of the city collapsed one after another, and the smoke inside the entire fortress rolled. The sound of collapse is continuous,

The large trebuchet on the city wall was blown apart before it was too late. The heavy trebuchet of the trebuchet flew all over the sky during the explosion. It rolled forward along the ground in the sene and injured many Normans Soldiers, the first wall was very disappointed, and there was a crack. "Renren. What was he doing, he took away the Duke!" "The fire that shone from everywhere shone, and the scattered stones hit many people. Body, face. Every second, it felt like he was tormenting in hell. A guardian of Cawibod's eyes flashed anxiously, and he slammed into the stomach of Kaweibod who was still clamoring for perseverance. "I'm determined not to..." Kavy Bodt's lips flicked, and the pain was silent on the spot. The guards quickly took him from the original place to the safer second wall.

Rumble, Rumble..., countless spots of light dropped unscrupulously, Norman soldiers who had nowhere to hide in the rocks and the sea of ​​fire, constantly jumping into the moat between the city walls, these channels became the Normans to avoid artillery fire Best place to go. But often carelessly, a siege shell falls on the wall next to it, and the collapsed wall covers the ditch water, and all the people inside will be buried alive or killed.

This offensive lasted for two days. Every morning was a fierce artillery bombardment. In the afternoon, the infantry crossbowmen of the Falcon Army approached the wall, and the crossbow bows in their hands kept the defenders on the fortress for two days. The shelling completely shattered the resistance of the Normandy people. No one was willing to accept the baptism of this artillery fire. Many intrepid Norman soldiers fell into a hysterical state in the continuous bombing, and even deliberately killed their companions. In the end, he was also killed. The shelling caused serious chaos within the Normandy soldiers. Sometimes in order to seize a trench that could avoid the bombardment, several squadrons often flocked together, and then several thunder bombs came with unexpected whistle of death, into pieces of corpses Floating between the gullies inside the fortress,

On the third morning,

Statunko let the heavy infantry of the Southern Army formally launch an attack. The black formations rushed towards the collapsed walls of Illu like cháo water. The defenders above had not waited for the heavy infantry to rush to the side. I collapsed first. The morale of the Normandy army has been seriously reduced. Most people have serious tinnitus problems in their ears. It seems that the sound of cannons is still rolling. Some people even seem to have difficulty in standing. The artillery bombardment created the unprecedented fear of the Normans, "Retreat"

The Norman army had almost no courage to touch,

The morning light slowly penetrated the clouds, reflecting the golden rays of light on the tall ruins of the fortress of Illu,

The earth is bathed in the vibrant sunlight of the rising sun, the wild grass stretches its body in the morning breeze, and the unknown wildflowers absorb the sun's air and moisture under the sunshine, and let themselves grow taller Stronger, can see higher and farther, stay in this world longer,

The black smoke that curled up in the distance appeared very abrupt in the glow of the sun, out of place, and the cold wind blew through the yellow bushes next to the fortress, and the black branches that were smoked in the thick smoke made a loud noise, most of them were not In some cases, only half of the bare wooden piles remain. The above half is already unknown where to go,

The forefront of the fortress is littered with scattered stones and rubble, as well as broken weapons and armor. The incomplete corpses are hidden from time to time in gravel rubble. A white winter snow covered here last night, and many corpses were buried in the snow cap,

The horse's hoof stepped on a miserable white hand that was still bare outside the mound. Statunko suddenly stopped marching on the horseshoe as he passed by the tragic fortress, "What's going on?" Statunko's face asked ugly, appearing in his sight, It is a pile of corpses up to more than ten meters high. I saw these white flowers and corpses piled up like mountains and stacked one on top of the other. Even Fan Lun Tien felt sorrowful about the **** corpses of white flowers on a hill Both are Normans. Some are regular troops, but most of them should be ordinary civilians in the fortress. These Normans, who were seriously injured in the battle, were casually placed on the open space in the center by their own countrymen.

"Bad adults, they are all seriously wounded by the enemy." A squad leader who was in charge of cleaning up nearby hurried over to salute him, then said his teeth.

"Self-control? All suicides?" Statunko's face grew more solemn. Slightly frowned, so much? As a soldier, he is not afraid of death and blood. But in the face of such a large-scale massacre, it is another matter,

"No, they didn't commit suicide!" The captain raised his head and said very ugly

"There are no obvious weapon wounds on them, just because there is any treatment after the injury, not even the most basic shelter from the wind and rain. Many soldiers did not die because of wound inflammation. In severe cold weather, the chance of inflammation of the wounds is not great. They were frozen to death alive. When we were cleaning up, we also found that there were a few people who did not fully swallow. Their clothes were also stripped, but just treated as The dead are pressed under the same pressure, so that they will not die in the severe cold"""As usual, all burned!"

Statunko turned his head and did not want to ask any more,

This is war, killing and being killed, just like you pass by some cities in the hinterland of Normandy which was cleaned by the expeditionary army. Such scenes are everywhere on this land. The Normans killed in this two months Within a period of time, at least more than 500,000,

A large area of ​​land has lost its owner, the luxuriant manor has been turned into wreckage, the town is almost empty, and few people can be seen during the day. The destruction of war has always been the destruction of 200,000 Salander slaves Although, after being sold everywhere, it has been scattered to all parts of the mainland, but there are still more than 100,000 people who remain in Normandy, accounting for one-twentieth of the total population of Normandy.

As the expeditionary forces advanced towards the interior of Normandy, the Salander riots burst like volcanoes,

The expeditionary army with the slogan of rescuing compatriots can even sometimes take over several towns within a rì without the use of soldiers and soldiers. The lack of faith and repressed revenge, followed by Sa Sa The Rand has brutal and **** revenge against the people of Normandy,

The Salander slaves killed every Norman they saw, even the children did not let go, and some of the means were outrageous. Even professional soldiers like Statunko couldn't bear to continue watching

Statunko has been stationed in Salander for more than half a year. He thinks that the Salander people are a people who love peace and romance, but what he is showing before him is completely a kind of violent violence of the whole nation. In respect, the Normans under the river mobilized everything that could be mobilized. In order to make up for the shortage of troops, they also sent a large number of Normandy civilians to the battlefield.

These civilians were wearing simple linen clothes, holding a three-meter wooden gun that was temporarily polished in their hands, and discharged a meaningless phalanx. The process of this wooden gun was very simple. It only needed to build an iron gun tip and put it on the back. A wooden stick is enough. The process is simple. Even an ordinary blacksmith apprentice~lightnovelpub.net~ can complete ten in an hour, which fully meets the Normandy’s requirement for a large amount of equipment in a short time, although there is no killing. Yes, but these soldiers can barely act as a cannon fodder unit under enough circumstances,

But such a force is completely the object of slaughter on the battlefield. The main force of the Normans has been trapped in Ilru. Although the defense force of the capital is claimed to have 80,000 people, it is actually just a group of peasants.

Statunko still remembers that in the suburbs of Normandy and Kyoto, under the ruthless moonlight, his southern army easily defeated 6 such 10,000 troops with 15,000 troops, and he always remembered that battle. , Not because of victory, but the wilderness that bleeds into the river, the ignoring corpses covered with the earth, almost became the cheapest fertilizer on this land, the black vultures hovered in the sky, even the sound of beautiful night music strings With sorrow,

In front of the expeditionary army and the Southern Army, the Normandy resistance was easily crushed.

According to the order, Statunko handed over the capital to the expeditionary troops who entered the city. At this moment, there was a trace of luck in his heart. The letter from His Majesty Falcon came too timely. Tatunko also dare not guarantee that he will not become a real butcher! At least for now, he is still a soldier! Your opponent is also a soldier!
