"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1249
Hazy drizzle enveloped the desolate wilderness, and the air became damp.
The rain-soaked battle flag moved crookedly, and the exhausted army was trudging through the mud.
"Damn spooky weather!"
A skitaris soldier with a haggard face slipped into the mud, and his body was covered in mud immediately. He wiped the splashed mud on his face, and couldn't help but yelled.
The Skitarii soldiers next to him saw this cursing companion, and they passed by numbly, looking weak.
At the beginning, under the leadership of the general in red, Kenan, the Guardian Army invaded the Yunzhong Province of the Far East Empire with a murderous look.
They were unstoppable all the way to attack the city and pull out the strongholds. At one time, they occupied more than half of the province in the cloud. At that time, their momentum was like a rainbow.
However, after Chen Ziang led the Qinghe Army reinforcements to Yunzhong Province, the situation changed suddenly.
The Second, Sixth, and Ninth Army Corps of the Qinghe Army led by Li Lang launched a counterattack against the Skitarii and recaptured a large number of towns.
At the same time, a powerful enemy also appeared within the Holy See, making their cities and towns full of smoke, and many areas were burned to nothingness.
The main force of the Patriarch Army on the front line was unable to obtain domestic supplies for a short time, and the supplies they stored were raided by the Qinghe Army.
Facing an increasingly unfavorable situation, the general in red, Kenan, prepared to shrink his defense and led his troops to retreat.
According to Kennan's original idea, they only need to take back the food and fodder of Zicheng Mansion, and then they can build a line of defense based on Zicheng Mansion and relying on the surrounding urban areas.
As long as the domestic situation stabilizes, they will be able to launch a counterattack again when reinforcements and supplies arrive.
It's a pity that the Qinghe army guarding the Zicheng Mansion was caught dead, and faced with a mountain of grain and fodder, they set it on fire without blinking an eye.
Years of wars have caused various resources such as food and fodder to become scarce items on the battlefield. Even if the two sides in the battle use human lives to fill them, they will not be easily burned.
However, the Qinghe army just played cards out of common sense. They couldn't get it themselves, and they wouldn't leave it to the enemy.
With the food and fodder in Zicheng Mansion being burned, the general in red, Kenan, had to give up his plan to build a defense line in Zicheng Mansion.
?Because they have no food, if they guard the front line of Zicheng Mansion, they will not be able to guard it.
So they have to withdraw to the border, and only in this way can they obtain certain supplies from the country.
When they marched, they were full of spirits, but now they want to retreat, but it is a difficult road.
Not to mention the continuous rain that made the road difficult, the main force of the Qinghe Army followed them, which made them restless.
Seeing the soldiers of the Skitarii who were drenched and trudging through the mud, General Kenan in red felt extremely depressed.
"Report, General, we have found General Morey!"
When the general in red, Kenan, was in a bad mood because of the continuous rain, several scout cavalry rode over, and there was another person on the back of one of them.
"Morey?"
After hearing the voice of the scout cavalry, the general in red, Kenan, also strode forward.
The dying general on horseback was lifted and put down. This man was ragged and disheveled.
If Kennan hadn't identified it carefully, he would never have recognized that this person was Morey, his powerful warrior.
"Morey, why are you here?"
Kenan was also very puzzled when he saw Morey, the general in black.
"General, I am sorry for you, we have lost the battle, there are too many Qinghe troops, and they are all over the mountains and plains."
The army led by General Mo Lei in black was responsible for containing Li Lang's troops of the Qinghe Army, buying time for their main force to annihilate Chen Ziang.
However, Kenan did not complete the encirclement and annihilation of the Qinghe Army Chen Ziang's troops. Instead, the black general Mo Lei's army was defeated by Li Lang.
After all, Li Lang has the second, sixth, and ninth legions under his command, while Morey has only tens of thousands of cathars.
These tens of thousands of cathars are loyal believers. Although they fought desperately, they were still unable to recover from the end of being completely annihilated.
General Morey in black also broke out of the siege under the desperate protection of his personal guards. He originally wanted to go to Que'er Mountain to find Kenan.
But on the way, he heard that the army had withdrawn to Zicheng Mansion, so he had to rush to Zicheng Mansion again.
However, when he arrived at Zicheng Mansion, he found that Zicheng Mansion was occupied by the Qinghe Army. He fought with the scouts of the Qinghe Army, and all his guards were killed. He escaped by chance and chased the main force all the way.
After many difficulties, Morey finally met their retreating main force.
Kenan also sent an order to Morey's people, asking them to fight and retreat to St. Lei City.
It's just that what Kenan didn't expect was that Morey and the others had already been wiped out, and it is estimated that their messengers have not found them yet.
"Send him down to rest."
Seeing the muddy and frail General Morley in black, Kenan did not lose his temper.
Since he fought against the Qinghe army, he has also learned how powerful the Qinghe army is, so Mo Lei's entire army was wiped out, and he didn't blame him, because he himself was defeated.
"Any news about the Snow Moon Knights?"
Seeing Morey being carried down, Kenan asked a general in black beside him.
"General, we have lost contact with them, and we have sent someone to find them."
"But don't worry, general. They are all cavalry troops. The Qinghe army should not be able to deal with them. They will join us soon."
Seeing the worried look on Kenan's face, an officer paused and comforted him.
"I hope so."
They have lost contact with several knight orders for several days, so Kenan is also a little worried about them.
"What are you doing!"
When Kenan was about to continue marching, suddenly there was a roar not far away.
Kenan looked up, and the scout Qingqi who sent Morey over just now were thrown into the mud by the marching Skitarii soldiers.
The horses of these scout Qingqi were snatched by the infantry. They drew their scimitars and slashed at the horses.
"asshole!"
Seeing the horse being cut down and drowned by these infantry amidst the screams, a group of infantry rushed forward to snatch the flesh and blood of the horse. Kenan's personal guard captain also roared and led the team to rush over.
Soon, the infantrymen who snatched the scouts' light cavalry horses and killed them were all arrested, and many of them were still chewing on the raw meat of the horses, looking extremely terrifying.
"General, they attacked the scout Qingqi and slashed and killed the horses. They seriously violated military discipline and must be severely punished!"
Seeing Kenan walking over, a black-faced general in black also said murderously when he saw dozens of ordinary soldiers being arrested.
"General, we were wrong, and we dare not do it again."
"General, we haven't eaten for two days. We are really hungry."
Seeing Kenan approaching, the captured soldiers kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"Let them go."
Seeing these brave soldiers who were once on the battlefield attacking the horses of the cavalry for a bite at the moment, Kenan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"The general¡ª¡ª"
"Let them go!"
"yes!"
"Bring my war horse here."
Kenan gave instructions to his personal guards.
Soon, the guards pulled his horse over.
Kenan pulled out the scimitar from his waist, any sharp blade pierced the horse's neck, the blood was soaring, and the horse fell into the muddy water with a mournful cry.
Seeing General Kenan kill his horse, the generals and soldiers around him were also full of astonishment.
"The order goes on, except for the scouting horses, the rest of the pack horses and horses will be slaughtered on the spot, so that the soldiers can have a full meal."
Their army has run out of food, and if they continue, they will not be able to reach the border, so the general in red, Kenan, had to order to kill the horse.
