The Amber Sword

Inside the port of Fatan, at this moment, the walls of the main city are ruined, many walls are enchanted, the rubble is scattered, the smoke is scattered, imperial soldiers in red and white robes are stepping on the collapsed walls. And the well-preserved city head, the army in the same robe is gradually gaining advantages, a dense and numb siege staircase is hung on the city staircase, more and more red and white colors gradually converge on the city through these ladders into a flood flow. In contrast, the Green Orthodox Festival, which represents the guards of the Port Fatan Army, was defeated and, in fact, in most areas the fighting was at an end and turned into alley warfare.

The situation seemed to have changed just moments before Sidney summoned Angel Eroma to destroy all the dead in the valley, after which the Harbour Guard launched a counter-attack to reoccupy the cliff fortress. But the scenery was short, and the White Legion then arrived on the battlefield to launch a major offensive, and the Imperial Legion of Mages, led by Tony the Great Shanian Wizard, bombed the Cliff Fortress almost at any cost and left a hundred meters of see-through pits there. The Port Guard lost a lot of money in this attack, and Charles did not allow Tonigal's magician regiment to strike back - in fact, the strike didn't do much, and the power gap between the two sides was obvious.

The White Legion immediately launched an offensive against the port of Fatan. Although the Gang Guard, who had gained morale as a result of previous victories, also made a special death resistance, the disparate power gap determined the result at the outset. The Imperial Magic Corps quickly destroyed the main walls of the port of Fatan, and a previous scene appeared.

Delphine relocated her position to the monastery under the cover of the crowd, and when she heard the front-line wavering slaughter, she quickly found that the Harbor Guard was still unable to hold its heels.

The Empire invested guard infantry on the front battlefield, and these arrays of infantry proceeded along every street, looking at a moving wall of floating square shields, where those heavily armored infantry with almost only a pair of eyes under the metal mask could be seen. They held a spear a few meters long and extended it out of the gap between the contradiction and the shield, as if a forest of spears had been raised and the dense, numb spear tip flashed.

Harbor Guard archers are almost powerless in the face of these metal fortresses, and only occasionally can the marksman in the army get the results - shoot the arrows into the crevices of the shield, or in the eyes. However, as the infantry in front falls on its back, the heavy-armored infantry in the rear immediately fills the gap in the upper formation, and a few casualties appear to be stone-throwing to the sea.

While the advance of the garrison infantry was not slow and desperate, under duress, the Port Guard in the western sector of Port Fatan launched a short-lived counter-attack, but the results were very unpleasant, the entire battle was destroyed and decayed, the entire squadron was barely present in the battle for less than a minute, and few wounded, most of them turned into cold corpses lying on both sides of the street.

It is only then that the Guardian infantry of the White Legion became known in the Second Jihad as the 'Dragon Gun Formation’, which is not in any way a false name.

On the roof, there are also White Eagle Archers dressed in red bottoms and white cloaks - these Rangers are actually from the Red Legion, but in the year of the Rabbit, the Silver Queen intended to cultivate a similar army in several other Legions, so she gradually drew a large group of Fire Eagle Archers from the Red Legion to enrich the other three Legions. Later, however, the plan progressed poorly, as most of the flaming eagle archers were in fact from Rangers, coming from mountainous areas such as Floating Cloud Hill, Anzlova, Anzeluta and Anzelin; the other three regiments were mainly from Metz, Mehotofen, Ludwig and peasants or mountaineers in Banker, Cape Bay countryside. The talents and understandings of archery are far from the original expectations, although many outstanding archers are cultivated in the end.

However, after the plan was put on hold, the Silver Queen did not return the drawn team of Firehawk Archers to the Red Legion, but rather left them in the three Legions for a special presence. These Fire Eagle Archers have different experiences, and the White Legion's Fire Eagle Archer coaching team even had a track record of fighting with the Fine Zen Silver Flag Knights in the Alca area during the Column Year, so a tail feather of the Falcon is marked on the left chest of their cape to distinguish them from other Fire Eagle Archers. Inside the White Legion, these Fire Eagle Archers are commonly referred to as' Falcons'.

The Falcons, cautiously lying on the roof, proceeded in groups of two or three men along a scattered line, a small number of them posing a great threat to the Hong Kong Guard. Often in alley warfare, the captains, knights or great knights of the Hong Kong Guard are exposed to unpredictable cold arrows with alarmingly high accuracy, once the lower command structure of the Hong Kong Guard was almost collapsed.

As for the soldiers of the Harbour Guard and the White Lion Guard, who were stubborn in temporary work, the Falcons were cleared one by one with rockets and refractive projectiles, which was a great play for them. Fire Eagle Archers' rockets can create explosive effects similar to fire ballooning, while refractive projectiles can be used to attack enemies hiding in buildings, barely a strong fortress in front of them.

If the guard infantry is like a simple, flimsy, sharp sword that can easily break the opponent's defense from the front, then the Fire Eagle Archer is like a clever bone sharpening knife. The two sharp blades work together and have no disadvantage in alley warfare.

The Hong Kong Guard soon lost the first and second streets of the barrier, and the White Lion Guard of the Eruins also encountered trouble in the first battle, and although they succeeded in stopping the White Legion from advancing towards the Temple of Fuchsia, they themselves suffered the worst casualties since the beginning of the war. On the map of Delphine, the port of Fatan was almost one of three trips in an instant, and important streets were stamped with red and white flags representing the Empire, whose aggressive fighting forces drove everyone into silence.

Even the imperial nobles...

Although every empire may have heard from birth about the pride of the empire - the legends of the four legendary Legions of Burnett Legion, Anderson Legion, Odypheus Legion and Donut Legion, inherited from the time of the Saints' War, it was these four Legions that later gradually evolved into today's four great Legions of Blue, White, Red and Black. But without really standing opposite them and becoming their adversaries, people will not understand how powerful they really are.

The glow of the empire, the majesty of the empire, the power of the empire, is not an empty word.

“What do we do?” Baron Ludwig's wrinkled face was very pale: “Shall we defeat the fortress of Fatan? ”

“No,” Count Olkons shook his head: "If we retreat now, we will have a breakdown in morale, and not yet. ”

“If we don't back off, we won't be able to hold back until the old wolf's men push us forward! ”

Count Alcons smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that old man to have two brushes. ”

Everyone else looked at Prime Minister Kim in the wheelchair and seemed to want to see if she had a solution, but Delphine's face was also very heavy, and she nodded and agreed with the former.

The offense was really suffocating, and the previous judgment was still too optimistic. The other party had not invested in the Vulture Knight and the Silver Flying Horse Knight, otherwise it would not have supported it at all after noon. In fact, even now, the entire harbour defense line can collapse at any moment, and the Harbour Guard is like a string stretched to its fullest extent, and no one knows when it will suddenly collapse.

Knowing that the White Legion is still one of the four Imperial Legions that is better at defending and fielding, they are proud that the Garrison Infantry is in fact a powerful defensive infantry, while the Dragon Knight Regiment simply cannot be put into the battle to attack the city.

“Has the Empire stopped in the direction of the attack on the Temple of Fuchsia?” She suddenly asked.

“Yes," the nobleman who brought the message answered immediately, but Delphine called the White Legion ‘Empire’ and made him feel somewhat ill-adapted, in fact most people here still saw the war as a civil war. After finishing his emotions, he replied in some incredible tone: "Indeed, Miss Delphine, I really don't know how those Eruins did it, as if they had repelled the Legion's attack from the front. ”

……

The White Legion was equally puzzled by the fighting power of this enemy in front of them, and the sound of the tsunami from the Eruin's position was constantly echoing like crazy. On this side of the street, the cavaliers of the White Legion, big and small, faced each other, before they had organized three attacks, but each time they were relentlessly repelled, the ratio of Eruins to their casualties almost reached three to one across the street, but the other was a successor to the former servants, with no idea what death and fear were.

The streets were ruined, both sides almost had no time to recover the bodies, the blood stained the streets red, every stone in the streets seemed to be immersed in the blood, reflecting a different light, so much so that the soldiers below had visually referred to the street in front as' Blood Street ’. Yet the Eruins still perished guarding several critical streets and refused to take a step back, as if they had not all been killed, the legions would not be able to move forward by half.

These junior officers of the White Legion have endured countless battles, but have never fought so fiercely that heavy infantry on the front line has been reduced by nearly a dozen percent. In fact, to date, at least three squads have been completely disabled and have fallen off the front line.

The ‘Falcons' on the roof also met their opponents, who were much stronger than the Eruins' infantry - a Windy Ranger unit, made up mostly of Pokémon soldiers with pointy ears, who not only shot amazingly, but also had the ability to hide their whereabouts. For the first time, the Falcons were caught close to each other by almost thirty feet without realizing it. As a result, they were subjected to an intensive shooting at a distance of almost one roof, leading to the near-total demise of the army.

The soldiers of the White Legion who reacted later tried to chase them, but the elf shooters had opened their capes and several leaps had jumped far and wide onto the other roofs. Then he turned around and sniped them for a while, after all the heavy infantry losses ahead, killing several cavalry captains.

The White Legion's first-line troop attrition was almost entirely accounted for by the Pokémon Shooters, and the Commander of the White Legion was forced to mobilize all several nearby 'Falcon' squadrons in that direction before finally relieving some of the pressure.

But it merely relieved the pressure, and although the number of ‘Falcons' gathered had far surpassed that of the Pokémon Archer squad, it had in fact been overwhelmed. After countless sneak attacks, these shooters from the Red Legion finally discovered that the other side could be invisible.

The ‘Falcon' on the roof, who had been suppressed from showing up, had in fact been caught in a stalemate when the battle hit the ground. Even if the White Legion were fearless, it would no longer be possible to advance without full cover, and not to mention the fact that the Eruins across the street put up a posture of death at the end of the battle, even if they were willing to do anything, they would not necessarily be able to make a breakthrough for a moment and a half. Not to mention, there aren't as many junior and middle cavalry commanders on the front line who can snipe at each other's elf shooters.

“Opposite should be the White Lion Legion of the Eruin,” a knight finally couldn't help but say after a moment of silence: "Their will to fight is a little unexpected to me, and I am now curious how those second-line Legions of Anzeluta have prevailed in the battle between the highlands and these guys. ”

“No, it's not just a legion of white lions, they have white lion capes on their shoulders, obviously distinguished from other white lions, maybe something like our Falcon. Have you noticed that their costumes look a lot like the White Lion infantry documented in history? ”

“But anyway, the really powerful ones are the elf shooters,” another knight frowned, "where the hell they come from, and we've never heard of a Ranger unit like Warnde, whose abilities are too special to be nameless. It can be seen that alley warfare is not their main battlefield, and this Ranger unit is the true king of jungle warfare. ”

“Is it the Wind Elf? ”

“No, that's the Tree Elf, but not the Tree Elf's Forest Projector, who performed worse in alley warfare than this Ranger army. ”

“Well, whoever they are, at least I can be sure this Ranger unit will be famous after today. ”

The first knight looked at his friends, frowned and waved: "You're off the hook, now we're talking about, what are we going to do? It requires us to cooperate with the southern offensive and take down the Temple of Fuchsia within an hour. But at the moment, these Eluyns are like crazy, and no one else is going to listen to us. They're just laughing at us. We can't even handle a bunch of hillbillies. ”

“This is not a very good solution, and if these guys are just hillbillies, I can't help wondering about our fighting power. ”

“You should indeed review your performance.” At this moment a majestic voice was plugged in, and all the knights present could not help but look at it and turn to salute the man who plunged in: "My lord! ”

The man who walked into this circle was the commander of this unit, Sir Leuch, who looked seriously at his men and replied, “No need to discuss, the order above has come down. ”

“What, will it give us air support, my lord? ”

“No,” Sir Ruch replied succinctly, "this was the order of Duke Ambnar, who ordered us to stop the attack immediately and return to the Golden Needle Valley for standby. ”

“What!? Why, the port of Fatan is at hand? ”

“No reason, the offense has been blocked. Have you seen the Buga fleet? This is an order, execute it immediately. ”

“Yes -” the knights were silent for a while, but still nodded.
