Chapter 105 The Rosefinch Army was defeated

"Your Excellency, retreat. If you don't order retreat, we will be doomed." A general advised anxiously.

"However, there are still hundreds of thousands of troops in the city, and there are tens of thousands of red flame iron riders that I have carefully trained in front of me." Xia Changkong can't let go.

"If the soldiers are gone, they can be trained again. If their lives are gone, there will be nothing." Another general quickly said that he didn't want to die here. This is the land of the Holy Empire, and there is not even a cemetery.

"General Zhao Wu, after you lead the cavalry and infantry that have not yet entered the battle, whether our army can be safe depends on the general to fight." Xia Changkong gave an order.

"My subordinates are designated as generals to delay the enemy." A big man held his fist and said with tears in his eyes, "General, please take care of my old father." Seeing Xia Changkong nodding, he turned around and led the troops without hesitation.

Not far away, the First Cavalry Corps of the Holy Empire is about to tear apart the Eternal Night Empire cavalry in front of them, and the form on the battlefield is very unfavorable to the Eternal Night Empire.

"The former general, the dragon ordered the infantry entering the city to withdraw and retreat on the whole line. You lead the troops to retreat to the Midock River. When retreating, pay attention to keep the cover of the guard troops, and withdraw as much as you can." When Xia Changkong ordered, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength and said weakly.

"My subordinates will live up to the trust of the general." A white-faced general came out and rushed to the city alone.

"How many cavalry are there in this battle?" Xia Changkong turned around and asked.

"Report, there are still about 3,000 people." A young general said.

"Move back with the headquarters and move slowly, otherwise the whole army will collapse." Xia Changkong took the horse and turned to the rear slowly. A general also followed. They saw that General Xia, who was originally in high spirits, was so lonely and silent.

The banner of the Middle Army of the Rosefinch Army and the White Tiger Army of the Yongye Empire began to move back slowly. Although it was not obvious, the infantry fighting hard in the Thor Fortress, which was waiting for the order to withdraw, still sensed a trace of danger.

Just as these infantry generals began to repeatedly send people to confirm orders with each other, General Long rode his horse into the gate of Thor Fortress. As soon as he entered the city, he began to order loudly: "The whole army retreat with me. The army maintains its formation. Each general finds his own army to stabilize his position and stabilize his position!" Hearing the sound, the Yongye infantry began to slowly retreat from the Thor Fortress under the command of the small officer, and General Long continued to ride a horse to inform the scattered troops everywhere.

On a section of the tower of the Thor Fortress, in terms of the Holy Empire, the veteran General Brown saw a general of the Eternal Night Empire in the city retreating. He wanted a soldier beside him to shout: "Tell the remaining cavalry troops to launch a counterattack. The enemy is going to retreat and will not encounter serious resistance. I attacked the enemy general and tried to kill him.

The soldier nodded and ran under the wall. General Brown's only 3,000 formed cavalry regiment soon launched the most brilliant charge of their lives.

Under the leadership of the regimental commander, the cavalry gathered an offensive formation. The infantry who wanted to fight in the Eternal Night Empire launched an unreluctance attack. Then they found that their attack had almost no decent resistance. The infantry of the Eternal Night Empire only sent them out of their positions, with only a small number of bows and arrows. The hand made a limited counterattack.

This cavalry ran all the way to its goal, that is, the former general of the Yongye Empire. At this time, the counterattack force retained by the veteran Brown reflected their value. They captured the flag along the way and disturbed many eternal nights that had just been gathered. The imperial infantry phalanx and killed the target Long Zai's former general in the chaos.

Long found that there had been enemy cavalry chasing him, so he had to run to a still complete infantry phalanx and warned loudly: "Enemy cavalry, prepare for defense."

The infantry put the dragon in front, raised the shield gun, and prepared to compete with the rushing cavalry. As a result, in the chaos, he did not order the archers in his army to fight back, which led to immediately fail to rely entirely on shields and spears to defend against the impact of the cavalry. The cavalry of the Holy Empire easily tore up the infantry. The defense line formed by the time caught up with the dragon who was about to catch his breath, and a group of cavalry fell with knives, resulting in the * army of the Yongye Empire.

This deadly attack successfully completed their assault mission. The city was originally an orderly retreat. After a while, because there was no command, it turned into a farce for the gate and a race towards North Carto Province. Xia Changkong's originally planned organized retreat turned into the collapse of hundreds of thousands of troops.

After waiting for half an hour, they found that the infantry in the city still showed no sign of organizing a retreat, and saw that there were few cavalry left to block the foreign aid forces of the Holy Empire. The troops under the jurisdiction of General Zhao Wu had been surrounded by regiments. Xia Changkong finally realized that the general trend had gone and ordered the whole line to retreat.

Xia Changkong led 3,000 light riders to retreat. The commander's flag was cut off by his subordinates. The Yongye Empire troops, which lost all their courage, suddenly turned into a group of poor farmers. They threw away their weapons, cried and surrendered, and prayed that their benevolent opponents could let them go. Most of the people joined the long The Mildock River and the long run in the direction of North Carto Province, they pinned their hopes to escape the pursuit of the Holy Empire and return to their hometown.

The speed of the six-shoe bright war colt was vividly reflected in this pursuit and annihilation battle. The Light Empire, the most brave cavalry, rushed to the headquarters of Xia Changkong, and bit the guard troops of Xia Changkong to death, all the way to cover the border of Dos Province. Xia Changkong's 3,000 light horses have been less than fifty. People, the generals either died in battle or found another direction to escape. The desperate Xia Changkong couldn't run on a stone, and his horse was almost weak. Falling on one side and gasping for breath.

Suddenly, there was a shout of killing in the distance. It was expected that the cavalry of the Holy Empire annihilated the 500 light riders behind the palace and chased them again. When Xia Changkong saw this, he couldn't help but feel sad and looked up to the sky.

"Oh, my God, I, Xia Changkong, joined the army at the age of 17 and took charge of the rosefinch army at the age of 34. He fought more than 100 times. Unexpectedly, he experienced such a great defeat and killed me! God will kill me!" After saying that, he pulled out his sword, pierced his heart and fell on the edge of the stone. The guards next to him did not have time to stop him. Seeing that the commander was dead, they hurriedly carried his body to the dry yellow grass next to him. They stripped the illustrious armor with seven hands and eight feet, buried it with snow a few times, and then hurriedly carried one person. A piece of armor, get on the horse and continue to flee forward. They were afraid that the body of the imperial general would be found and then humiliated, so they dealt with it like this.

In the year of the creation of the gods 36179, on November 20, 1574, the commander-in-chief of the northern front of the Eternal Night Empire, General Xia Changkong, committed suicide, and the offensive force of the northern front of the Eternal Night Empire collapsed.
