I have a lot of wives

This army is so large and so elite.

Excellent marksman, strong barbarian berserker, equipped with dual swords, gloomy gray elf ranger... a huge war elephant and an earth travel dragon.All this made the emperor's army seem a bit noisy, lively, and huge.

Standing on his own vintage chariot made of gold and inlaid with countless gems, the emperor looked around happily and confirmed that this victory must be won by himself.

...

at the same time.In the ice sea area in the north.

"What shall we do if the emperor defeats Arbach, grandfather?"

In the palace of the Kingdom of Fenris, Princess Xueni, who is already a powerful figure in the kingdom, calmly looked at the grandfather in front of her and said her plan.

"You mean, are we going to start a war against the empire?" On the other side, King Knut suppressed his dissatisfaction, looked at the princess opposite and asked: "You should know, my child, this is for Fenris There is no benefit to it."

"No, my plan is not to attack the empire. It does not do us any good to attack the empire."

What surprised King Knut was that Princess Xueni...or rather, what Xuexia Xuena said was not about how well and how to attack the empire under such circumstances.

If she said that, King Knut would not agree to it anyway, and would lower his evaluation of Yukino Yukino.

but.

"What I want to say is that we can attack the Venetian kingdom." She calmly said this, making King Knut's expression a little exciting:

"By attacking the coastal areas of the Venetian Kingdom, we can strengthen our control of the ice sea area and increase our wealth and strength.

At the same time, the Venetians have experienced a serious decline in their strength after a period of war. They are not our opponents.

Later, in the Kingdom of Veneti, the believers of the Holy Light were persecuted by the believers of the old gods.If we play the banner of liberating the believers, on the one hand, we are justified, and on the other hand, we can win the support of the believers of the Holy Light.

It only takes a little effort to get so many benefits.Of course we should do this."

"..."

Opposite her, King Knut was in a calm mood. He knew that apart from the reasons above, Xuexiaxuena had another reason that he had not said.

That is, the Kingdom of Veneti is likely to accept a bribe from Otto I and attack the Principality of Arbas in the name of inheritance.

But at this time, if the Kingdom of Fenris launches an offensive against the Kingdom of Veneti, it can relieve some pressure on the Principality of Arbas.

However, King Knut just thought about this in his heart and didn't really say it.

Because such a strategy is beneficial to the Kingdom of Fenris, he has no reason to refuse.

But when I think about it again, King Knut still feels uncomfortable and very concerned-because she can say this, it proves that Princess Xueni has excellent strategic vision... In this case, she is very concerned about the orthodox heir to the Fenris kingdom. The threat becomes even greater.

...

"Student Xuexia, also working hard."

At the same time, the light and fluttering voice of Kato Megumi came from Lu Cheng's side.

Although she was not by Lu Cheng's side, but in the north of Arbas, to be more specific, at the edge of the emerald forest, she wanted to merge these countries into the Principality of Arbas by way of united front.But this does not prevent the two of them from continuing to talk.

"Yes, it can be considered a contribution to the future victory." Lu Cheng's tone was relaxed.In response to Kato Megumi.

"Student Lu Cheng, listening to your tone, are you confident about your future victory?"

"Of course." Lu Cheng replied: "There is nothing simpler than this."

"However, that Constantine XVI, obviously brought a hundred thousand troops to attack. Among them, there are three demigod-level powerhouses, and it can be said that they have been dispatched."

"There is no one hundred thousand, only sixty thousand."

"?"

"Sixty thousand?"

"Because before they met, I had defeated the army of the three governors in the north."

Lu Cheng's tone still maintained that kind of relaxed and happy taste, but what he said was shocking, and Kato Keita made a "Oh." voice expressing surprise.

...

Things are just as Lu Cheng said.

In Constantine XVI, when he was still marching slowly, maintaining a marching speed of about thirty miles a day, Lu Cheng had led his light cavalry troops and easily defeated the three Argosians in the north. The army of the governor.

——If not counting Lu Cheng’s own tiles, then the light cavalry unit under Lu Cheng’s command is not as powerful as a human and a governor’s army.

Each of them has an entire army.The standard Argos legion.There are ultra-long pikemen, equipped with compound bows, and strong crossbow skirmishers, as well as the most elite musketeers, assault cavalry and magicians.

If the two sides opened up the battle, and the soldiers opposed the soldiers, then the five thousand light knights under Lu Cheng, plus less than a hundred air knights and a group of holy knights, would definitely not be the opponent's opponent.

But Lu Cheng had never thought of fighting against the opponents.

He fully displayed the mobility of the cavalry.Of course, there are also "freedom of action" spells, allowing them to run like flying in dense forests and hilly terrain.

After that, during the opponent’s march, Lu Cheng’s cavalry directly killed without hesitation.

Then there is no more.

As mentioned above, in order to save energy during the march, the armors of the soldiers and horses need to be put off.In addition, when marching, there is no way to line up, but to advance along the road in a long snake manner.

The combination of these two makes the army's combat effectiveness drastically reduced during the march, and there is no 20% of the formal array warfare.

Thus, after magic, crossbows, and muskets, the cavalry charge.

Using Eastern-style light armor, Western-style ultra-long lances, and dense arrays, just like the last glory of the Lancers, and the Polish winged cavalry in the final form, the black cavalry of Arbach roared and howled, Launch the most violent attack without hesitation.

They shouted in the name of Arbashi, the great bishop, and gave the enemy equal destruction...

In this way, a battle usually ends within a few hours.The enemy's legion was crushed by the continuous fierce charge of the cavalry.Legion commanders, generals and governors were either captured or killed in battle.

This rapid attack lasted three times in one breath, like a hurricane, at a much faster speed than the eastern nomad army, and a professional army mode.Lu Cheng's army accomplished the feat of easily defeating 30,000 enemies with five thousand in half a month.

...

When all this crazy and unimaginable information reached the ears of Emperor Constantine XVI, everyone was surprised and terrified.

Many people thought of those terrifying nomadic sweats raging in the empire like no man's land.

Their nomadic communities razed cities and villages to the ground and turned them into pastures where they graze.

And now, everything that Lu Cheng did was faster, more vicious, and more incredible than they did.This is why they won.
