Holy Sword Dynasty

Chapter 282 Blood Sword Song

McVlon watched the battlefield situation in front of the people in a command post carefully arranged on a high ground not far behind the position.

He put down the binoculars he had held for a long time, looked at the two armored human officers behind him, and said slowly, "Your two divisions are the newly formed cavalry division of Faria Province. Now I need you to prove your loyalty to the Principality of the Holy Sword."

The two stood up straight and said, "I promise to fight until one soldier and never retreat."

McVlon waved his hand: "I don't want you to fight until the last soldier so exaggerated, but there will definitely be losses. I want you to fight back north and repel the Yongye Empire troops attacking my left wing! It only takes half an hour."

Yes! Repuls the enemy for half an hour!" The two cavalry division commanders turned around and walked out. They know that if they are lucky enough to survive this battle, they will be truly recognized by the military headquarters and become part of the powerful military force of the Principality of the Holy Sword.

Just as the Yongye Empire attacked McVlon's troops and encroached on the position of the Principality of the Holy Sword inch by inch, the left wing of the Principality of the Sword suddenly turned to counterattack, and the two light cavalry divisions suddenly rushed out of the position and rushed into the dense soldiers of the Yongye Empire.

Although they were light cavalry, due to the sudden incident, the Yongye Imperial troops on the front line did not prepare weapons against the cavalry, so there was nothing they could do with this unit for a while.

However, the experienced Yongye Imperial troops did not wait for death. They quickly sent people to ask for support and sent messengers to the nearest heavy cavalry troops.

After 20 minutes, the Holy Sword Principality Cavalry, which rushed into the crowd of the Yongye Empire troops, finally met his opponent - a heavy cavalry force of the Yongye Empire with armor.

The two sides fought in one place until noon, and the light cavalry of the Holy Sword Principality of the two divisions returned to the army. There were only more than 10,000 troops left.

However, their efforts are not unrequited. The Yongye Imperial troops, which had been about to break into the left wing of the Principality of Shengjian, had to face the rest and prepare for an hour.

The battle continued on a more than ten-kilometer-wide defense line, and the eternal night empire paid a heavy price. However, in order to defend its position, the Duke of the Holy Sword also paid the blood of tens of thousands of soldiers.

However, at about 3 p.m., McVlon finally waited for General Buck's report that the Belo cluster had broken through the defense of the defenders of the Eternal Night Empire and detoured to the rear of the army of the Eternal Night Empire.

At 3:15 p.m., the whole line of the Holy Sword Principality turned into a counterattack. More than 300,000 troops quickly recaptured some of the positions lost in the morning under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, and began to launch a tide-like attack on the Yongye Imperial Army.

Ye Shengwu, the eldest prince, found that the situation was not good and immediately ordered to shrink his troops to retreat back to his own defense line, but found that the back road of his army had been copied.

Behind him, nearly 200,000 steel troops of the Holy Sword Principality suddenly appeared, destroying the guard troops of the Eternal Night Empire in an instant.

For the first time in his life, the prince of the Yongye Empire suffered such a fiasco. At this moment, he didn't know what to do. Fortunately, several experienced officers rushed to run away with Ye Shengwu with some elite cavalry.

Because the troops of the Holy Empire were busy besieging the large-scale Yongye Empire army, this small unit guarding Ye Shengwu was not heavily besieged. After repelling a Chasing Sword Principality cavalry, they abandoned their armor and fled back to the place where they set out in the early morning. Point, that is, the defense line of the Eternal Night Empire.

At this time, the second prince Ye Shengwu realized that more than 400,000 troops of the Yongye Empire were surrounded on the border of the Antarctic province, with no command, no supplies, and even no equipment to camp. If nothing happens, this poor Yongye imperial army is really finished.

The factual situation is not unexpected. The Yongye Imperial troops, which lost their effective command, fought separately and did not form an effective breakthrough and defense at all. They were soon dispersed and surrounded by division.

The resistance stopped completely in the evening, and more than 400,000 troops laid down their weapons and surrendered to the soldiers of the Principality of Shengjian.

McVlon, who was worried about how to deal with such a large number of prisoners, suddenly received a telegram from the capital Romell.

Acardo looked at Lin Ria, who was standing respectfully with a plate in front of him, and Anne with a cold smile, and issued a terrible order that made future generations criticized.

"Call from the Royal Palace of Romer, the capital." An amissary walked into McVlon's headquarters with a strange expression, shocked, puzzled and trembling.

"Ret read!" McValone was looking at the report on the number of prisoners in his hand, pinching the bridge of his nose and thinking about how to escort such a huge team of prisoners.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty St. Rudolph..." The messenger shivered to read the words on the paper, but found that he could not read them anyway.

"What's wrong with Your Majesty?" McVlon was shocked and immediately stared at the messenger and asked.

"Your Majesty is fine!" The summoner immediately said, "It's just a message. There may be something wrong with the message. I think I need to confirm with Romer."

"What did Your Majesty say?" McVaron asked.

"Your Majesty ordered that the surrendered 400,000 prisoners should be selected to be incorporated into slaves, build roads for the empire, and never be separated from slavery." The summoner said.

"What about the rest?" McVallon suddenly grasped the point of the matter.

"The order says, kill all on the spot, and don't leave any one." The summoner reported.

"I know, you go! No need to verify." McVlon closed his eyes and said, "Remember, Your Majesty did not issue such an order! Do you understand! Never!"

Yes! I understand!" He ordered the official to salute and said solemnly.

Historical records: In the winter of the second year of the Gregorian calendar, on the night of December 8, Mac Wallon, the army marshal and military minister of the Principality of the Holy Sword, privately ordered to slaughter 300,000 soldiers of the Yongye Empire on the grounds of wasting supplies.

There was no moon that night, and the screams were endless, and it could still be heard clearly several miles away. The river blood polluted the groundwater source, causing the well water to turn red in a village on the border of the Antarctic province, and the smell gradually recovered for several years.

More than 200,000 troops left behind by the Eternal Night Empire gave up the defense line overnight and retreated to the tributary of the Dafos River. Relying on the river bank, they rearranged the defense line and gave up a large area of southeast city-state territory.

The Principality of the Sword acquired the territory of the Holy Empire and became a true neighbor of the Holy Empire.

St. Rudolf God Arcado, Lord of the Principality of the Holy Sword, did not punish Mc Valon for killing prisoners. Instead, he personally ordered that the army marshal Mc Vallon be promoted to duke, who was given the title of Grand Duke of the Holy Sword, known as the Duke of Protector.

However, another name has quietly spread among the people, that is, the murderous man of the Holy Sword Duchy - Blood Sword Grand Duke McVlon.
