The war between the Byron Empire and the Centaurs before the winter of the second year of the Divine Calendar has lasted for less than half a year.
Both sides invested a total of nearly 700,000 troops and started fighting in the southern hilly areas!
The leading marshal of the 400,000-strong southeastern army of the Byron Empire was Derek Rostall. Last summer, Derek led a 300,000-person field army to conquer the centaurs. However, due to the leak of the news, a war started early.
After half a year of gathering, the centaurs and horses formed a large tribe of nearly one million people. While constantly dealing with Derek, the centaurs and horses gathered their forces bit by bit and made sneak attacks on the human army from time to time.
At first, Derek failed in a series of battles because he divided his troops ahead, forcing him to shrink his defense line. The two sides formed a stalemate before entering winter. The 100,000 soldiers of the Seventh Army of the Byron Empire who were ordered to come to support,
Break through the defense line of the centaurs in a tyrannical way and meet up with Derek's army.
The man who leads the Seventh Legion is named Halford Rebain. This legion is the most powerful legion in the Byron Empire.
Its predecessor is the famous Byron Empire Vanguard Army! Yes, its name is the Vanguard Army. During the Holy War period three hundred years ago, as long as there is a battlefield and there is a battle, they will always appear on the first line.
First-line!
Crossing the top of the Hengduan Mountains and crossing the central plain, no matter what enemy you face!
————We keep fighting!
No one knows my name, no one knows my appearance, we are the pioneers of mankind!
In the name of the empire, we will always be at the forefront and we will always fight to the end!
We are the glorious Seventh Legion!
We are the glorious imperial vanguard!
Every soldier who joins the Seventh Legion will be told on the first day to forget their name and their past. You are just a number in the Seventh Legion!
You all look the same, each of you is the Seventh Legion!
Even if we fight to the last man, the Seventh Legion will be the one alive!
Such an army adheres to the glorious tradition and has the most rigorous training. In other armies, training requires sweat, but in the Seventh Army, it takes blood and life!
Every soldier who finally survives to join the Seventh Legion will straighten his chest and shout out his number proudly! They deserve it!
Derek's eyes almost popped out of his eyes when he learned that the Empire had sent out the Seventh Legion. Of course he knew the name of the Seventh Legion. When he was young, he had thought about joining it, but in the end he gave up due to pressure from his family. Every
A soldier who joins the legion will be separated from all the past, even if you are the prince and heir apparent!
The powerful intrusion of the Seventh Legion dealt a big blow to the human and horse army. Back then, it was their predecessor, the Imperial Vanguard Army, who drove the human and horse clan to the southeastern hills!
Now, this legion has once again intervened in the race war, which really makes the people of the horse clan panic!
Derek received the report and hurriedly organized an army to respond. However, when he was just about to set off, he saw a murderous army coming from the front, and it was none other than the Seventh Legion.
They used a straightforward method to attack the army of men and horses head-on. They used 3,000 heavy armored cavalry to clear the way and charged directly against the men and horses!
Although they suffered some casualties, they directly destroyed the morale of the troops!
When they meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. Halford announced the arrival of the Seventh Legion in the most powerful way, causing the morale accumulated in the early stage of the Centaur clan to plummet.
Derek looked at the military flag coming from far and near - a roaring golden lion. This flag embodies the soul of the entire Seventh Legion. Just like the roaring lion in the flag, every time the Seventh Legion is dispatched,
Shout out to the world!
The soldiers of the Southeast Army looked up to the sky with excitement and roared when they saw the Seventh Legion coming from afar. In the Byron Empire, this legion was a legend, a myth, and a place that everyone yearned for!
Derek looked at every soldier in the legion with pride. They had the right to be proud. They were the darlings of the empire, but they indeed deserved their name!
Halford got off his horse, stepped forward, saluted Derek and said: "Halford Rebain, under the order of the empire, led the Seventh Legion here, please give instructions!"
Derek took a deep breath excitedly, patted Halford's shoulder heavily with his right hand, and said: "Okay! Okay! Okay! Well done! With your help, a great victory is just around the corner! Let the soldiers rest first.
, you come and discuss with me!"
In this way, the number of Derek's troops, who had joined the Seventh Legion, increased to 360,000 (nearly 40,000 soldiers were lost in the previous battle). Facing an army of more than 200,000 centaurs, he believed that he would definitely win!
After taking in the money, Halford first conveyed the imperial order, and then told the news from the outside world.
Regarding this unexpected war, the emperor was very angry at first. However, as the northern orcs moved south, a large-scale war broke out with the Byvost Empire, and a border war broke out between the Eastern Elves and the Oakley Empire, the Byron Empire
The war must continue!
The empire is also unified like never before, and all kinds of passionate young people are asking to join the army to fight the enemy. Especially news from the north comes one after another. First, the attack and defense of Karst City. The sacrifice of soldiers and people makes the entire human race seem to have returned to the 300s.
Years ago, the passionate era of fighting for the survival of the race!
With the epic victory of the Far North Fortress, it inspired all mankind. At this moment, everyone was smiling with tears. The kind of pride from the heart made them wipe away their tears, pick up weapons, and join the
In the war against foreigners!
The officials of the Byron Empire also took advantage of this trend and took advantage of this force and sent out the Seventh Legion. Their purpose was not only to rescue the Southeast Army as planned earlier, but also to severely inflict heavy losses on the Centaur tribe and use this momentum to further expand the Byron Empire.
Popularity throughout human society!
Derek and others also heard the intelligence from the north of the mainland. When they heard about the heavy losses and the epic victory of the Far North Fortress, their blood surged and they wanted to fight the centaurs immediately! This kind of encouragement is better than any words.
It's all come in handy. Look at the soldiers after hearing this. The increasingly tired look over the past few months has completely disappeared. Instead, there are pairs of red eyes, looking into the distance as if they have a life-and-death hatred.
A gathering place for the centaurs and horses.
Derek decided to use this fighting spirit to look for opportunities to fight the opponent in a short period of time!
After discussing the action plan, everyone got up and went back, with Derek leaving Halford behind.
"In a blink of an eye, you have grown so big. How are you doing recently?" Derek said to Halford with a smile.
"Marshal, Rebain is doing very well now." Halford answered standing upright.
Derek motioned for him to relax, "I remember when your father and I joined the army together, fought together, were promoted together, and went to see the Holy Father together. But more than twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you have grown up and become a man. I
I think your father would also be proud of you."
Halford Rebain is the son of Imperial General Carol Rebain. Carol Rebain died in the battle for the Brooke Empire more than 20 years ago.
Derek and Carol were originally known as the twin walls of the empire. They joined the army at the same time, and they were both descendants of the great nobles of the empire, so they got along very well. In battle after battle, the two did not know how to save their lives.
Having passed each other so many times, this fateful friendship has made the two as close as brothers. They even joked that in the future they would get married and become in-laws.
However, with the battle more than 20 years ago, Carol died in the battle, and Derek was hit hard. After recovering, Derek finally rose to the rank of Marshal of the Empire.
The son of his best friend is the Halford in front of him. After learning that his father was killed in battle, he ran away from home alone and secretly joined the army and went to the battlefield. It was because of his bravery that Halford was only fifteen years old.
He was selected into the Seventh Legion. At first, Halford did not use his father's surname. He just took step by step and spent more than ten years to reach the position of commander of the Legion. At that time, he announced his real name! "Only
Only in this way can I be worthy of the name my father gave me!" This was his explanation to everyone.
Since Derek found out that Halford was the widow of his best friend, he rushed to him and looked at the face that was very similar to Carol's. He couldn't stop crying with excitement. He was happy for his late best friend, yes, ha.
Elford did not embarrass his father!
"Thanks to you this time, otherwise, I would have almost lost all my face." Derek said sadly. As he said, without the support of the Seventh Army, his Southeast Army might be trapped in the
The southern hills.
"Marshal is worrying too much. Even if Rebain doesn't come, you will definitely defeat the centaurs." Halford said with certainty. His father and Derek were called the twin walls of the empire. It was not a joke, but
It is real strength! This view has never wavered.
Derek smiled slightly, then straightened his expression, "In a few days, you will lead the Seventh Army. As the vanguard, you must fight well!"
Halford clicked his heels together and saluted: "Yes! The Seventh Legion guarantees to complete the mission!"
Derek nodded and arranged for Halford to rest.
Alone in the tent, Derek took out the long sword from his waist. This long sword was exquisitely made, but the hilt did not bear the emblem of his family.
This sword was Lalor's sword during his lifetime. Before the two went to war, they gave each other their swords and agreed to drink together after the war. As a result, after that, the two were separated forever. Derek
Often when I'm alone, I pull out my sword and wipe it carefully with a handkerchief, recalling the past when I was young and reminiscing about it alone.
"It's time to hand you over to Halford. He has grown up, and we are also old. Stand at the last post, and it's time to hand it over to the young people." Derek wiped his sword carefully.
