In the eyes of the elite Eden family, time seems to pass so slowly.
It only takes less than five seconds for the cavalry at peak speed to cross a distance of tens of meters. But in the eyes of those soldiers with pale faces and trembling hands and feet, this short time seems like several hours have passed!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Loud noises were heard one after another. This was the sound produced by the soldiers who were thrown away by the high-speed impact.
The 500 fine cavalry of the second army led by Dian Wei were like a sharp dagger, easily cutting through the Eden family's defense line.
Without the spear phalanx, in this small-scale battle, the wedge-shaped charge formation of the Second Army easily penetrated the defense line!
The spear in the tiger and leopard rider thrust out fiercely with the anger in its owner's heart.
Simple and neat movements, the fallen soldiers had blank expressions, and even to death they had not yet gotten over the fear caused by the cavalry charge!
When Jareth Eden saw that the "elite" he had high hopes for was destroyed in an instant, his vision went dark and he fell down. At this time, there was only one voice in his heart, "It's over, it's all over. The Eden family is over, patriarch."
The hospital is over!"
Everything turned into despair. After being penetrated through the formation, the elites of the Eden family were discouraged. They cried and ran away, completely ignoring the soldiers around them.
Dian Wei waved a pair of short halberds with a grin, and human heads flew out from under his halberds. The blood dyed him and his horses red. He looked like a demon, which made the Eden soldiers who saw him
They were all scared out of their wits.
"Cut! Vulnerable! Tiger and leopard cavalry obey orders!" Dian Wei shouted loudly towards the battle station after seeing all the enemies around him dead.
"Here!" The five hundred tiger and leopard cavalry responded in unison while chasing the enemy.
"Leave no one behind! Kill!" Dian Wei showed a cruel smile and said words that made many Eden soldiers who were ready to surrender despair.
"The order is given! Leave no one behind! Kill!" As if they were stimulated, all the tiger and leopard cavalry who received the order showed happy smiles. In the hearts of the Eden soldiers, this smile represents death, fear, and despair!
The battle ended quickly. The more than 700 elite infantrymen of the Eden family who resisted were all killed! No one was captured.
The charging tiger and leopard cavalry lost more than 20 people, all of whom were injured, but none died!
In fact, the huge advantage they had over the defenders resulted in no deaths. Faced with the lack of long-range weapons and spears specially designed to deal with cavalry, it was completely impossible to kill cavalry who were twice the height of ordinary people with a single-handed blade.
impossible!
Coupled with the power brought by the charge, these young chicks, who have never been on the battlefield and have seen blood, have lost their determination to continue fighting before they come into contact. So the whole process is equivalent to chasing down the defeated troops!
This can also explain why the tiger and leopard cavalry were not injured and could not die.
The streets in front of the city lord's palace were filled with the corpses of dead soldiers. The expressions of fear before death remained on their faces.
As for those who didn't die? Sorry, the Second Army doesn't need prisoners.
With this order, more than a hundred soldiers who surrendered were massacred!
This order came from Zhao Yun. As the leader of an army, deep into the hinterland of the empire, with no supplies, no backup, and only himself, he had to ruthlessly make the decision to leave no prisoners and eliminate all resistance forces!
He can't let the power behind him exist that can threaten him! He also doesn't have the energy and ability to lead the prisoners forward! For all cavalry teams that pay attention to mobility, time speed is everything!
In the end, they came for revenge! Only blood and killing can express the resentment in the hearts of the Second Army!
Therefore, this order was implemented without any hindrance.
Dian Wei looked at Jaris Eden who was caught in front of him. At this time, the Lord of Eden had long lived up to his former glamorous appearance. His wet hair was scattered on his head, his eyes were distracted, and his body was trembling.
Now the city lord is in extreme panic.
Dian Wei glanced at the city lord and waved his hand casually. Following his signal, a tiger and leopard knight behind Jaris Eden drew out a sharp sword, and with a refreshing roar of revenge, he slashed with the sword.
Got Jareth's head off.
As the head with a confused expression fell to the ground, the battle at the City Lord's Mansion ended.
At the same moment when Dian Wei attacked the city lord's palace, the detachment led by Zhao Yun also rushed into the Eden City military camp.
Facing the panicked defenders, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry gave full play to their cavalry's mobility, forming a hunting team in groups of three and two to hunt down the defenders one by one!
Zhao Yun stationed his horse at the gate of the military camp, looking coldly at the killings ahead. This is revenge, this is war! No one can show mercy, there is only killing!
In the military camp, the 3,000 garrison garrison were slowly being depleted by the repeated attacks and interceptions of the powerful Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
About half an hour later, all the soldiers in the military camp were killed. There were as many as 5,000 tiger and leopard riders participating in the hunt.
Then, a fire burned the entire military camp. Zhao Yun led the detachment and cleared the targets prepared by the intelligence team one by one.
Those nobles and merchants who had some strength were vulnerable to powerful force.
Anyone who had some connection with the Senate was captured by the intelligence team, gathered together and killed by the angry Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
The tiger and leopard riders who were responsible for inventorying the warehouses and grain stores loaded all the things they could use onto the stolen carriages!
Bags of high-quality grain and grass, which will serve as the logistics for the Second Army's advance and follow the entire operation.
The battle in Eden City ended completely near dusk. At the end of the day, more than 4,170 Eden City defenders were killed, of which more than 3,000 died in the military camp and more than 300 died at the city gate.
, and more than 700 soldiers of the Eden family were killed by the 500 cavalry led by Dian Wei in the battle in front of the city lord's palace!
The noble merchants who were captured next, along with their families, relatives and friends, a total of more than 14,000 people, were all massacred!
This bloody list made the entire Eden City panic.
Zhao Yun piled the heads of all the killed people at the gate of the city!
Immediately, Zhao Yun ordered all residents in the city to be driven out of the city!
This decision made the people who had lived in Eden City for generations dare not speak out, because those who resisted were all killed! The people were forcibly driven out of the city, and then Zhao Yun left with the stolen supplies.
Eden City.
As the Second Army left, a fire burned Eden City, a centuries-old city.
It was not until three days later that the 20,000 troops of the Eden family who came to support after hearing the news were dumbfounded when they saw the city of Eden still burning!
Especially the mountain of heads piled up at the city gate, everyone who saw it was so frightened that they collapsed to the ground and vomited.
The Second Army led by Zhao Yun rushed towards the next target with enough food and grass to last them for half a month!
The news of Eden City was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, and the shock instantly swept away from the southwest of the Alton Empire.
The Senate was silent after receiving the news. They were caught off guard by the news. Although they had received a warning from Linda before, they completely ignored the message. While they were daydreaming, they received a message from Linda a few days later.
The Eden family asked for help. Only then did they realize how ridiculous their previous thoughts were!
However, the fact has happened, and they can only respond hastily.
A quarrel ensued, with each other spitting and spitting, turning the entire Senate into a vegetable market!
"Farce! What a farce!" Linda looked at the noisy crowd in the venue and snorted indifferently.
In her heart, she was also surprised by Dragon City's ruthless and swift actions. In Linda's understanding, Dragon City's method of revenge was nothing more than to attack some small towns, and then use this to put pressure on the Senate and the Empire.
Eventually we will return to the negotiating table.
But judging from the information obtained, the tragic situation in Eden City is chilling! Everyone was massacred mercilessly, and the fire burned the largest town in the northwest. This means that this operation in Dragon City will be unprecedentedly large, and it will also
The so-called ruthlessness before!
"Zhou Yunfei, Zhou Yunfei, who are you?" Linda was curious more than once about what this Dragon City lord wanted to do with his miraculous rise and his extremely elite army.
Despite this, the Senate was still undecided at this time.
Some people believe that this revenge was carried out against the planners of the previous action that harmed Zhou Yunfei. Based on the idea of using the help of Longcheng to eliminate hostile forces, they believe that it is enough for each member to guard their own family territory.
The other part is the members who originally supported the operation against Dragon City. Some of them are small nobles and small businessmen. Facing the fierce Dragon City army, they can only rely on the help of the large forces in the Senate, otherwise
Just like the more than 10,000 noble merchants who were killed in Eden City!
Both parties were in a stalemate, and the Senate meeting that failed to reach a consensus had to let each of them go back to prepare. The disappointed Linda left the meeting place. On her way back, she ordered the middle-aged man beside her: "Get ready.
Well, it seems that the Senate is likely to perish this time, and our industry will shrink to the ground. Also, let’s implement that plan!”
The middle-aged man nodded cautiously, then turned and left.
As the Second Army swept across the battlefield, battle reports and intelligence were transmitted to various places in the Byvost Empire like snowflakes.
The eldest prince looked at the latest information in his hand, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
So cruel! Just like Linda's thoughts, the eldest prince did not expect that Longcheng would be so hateful! He killed tens of thousands of people in one go! This was not just an action for profit, it was complete destruction!
The second prince took a breath of air after receiving the news. Earlier when he was in Lille City, the second prince paid special attention to the Second Army. This large cavalry team once almost made the second prince salivate.
It flowed down! But in the end, he still gave up the idea of mobilizing the second army. After all, the 50,000 elite members of the Claire family were right under his nose at that time, and it was impossible for the Lancelot family's army to face the troops gathered from all over the empire at the same time.
So in the end the second prince had no choice but to put an end to this idea.
Now, after learning that the Second Army captured Eden City overnight, massacred tens of thousands of people, and then left, envy arose spontaneously in my heart. Who do I envy? Of course the third prince!
The entire northern part of the Ross continent is focused on the Second Army galloping on the Alton Plains. Where will their next target be?
