Many years later...
Even hundreds of years later, whenever the scholars of the Basaran Empire looked through the historical documents they had recorded, they could not help but take another look at it.
In the two or three hundred years since the Empire was founded, apart from the first few turbulent years, there have been few major wars. The most serious of these wars was the battle with the Borg! A large amount of land was occupied and a large number of soldiers died in the battle.
There were countless battles, big and small, but few were victorious.
The defensive policy implemented by the empire has become the focus of criticism and debate among historians for many years, because such a decision almost led to the destruction of the Basaran Empire. The enemy even united multiple armies to attack from the south!
However, during this war, a battle on the border involved three factions, and in just a few days, the enemy was completely annihilated in an almost brutal and devastating manner. This included the then-powerful Golden Group in the Adak desert.
There aren't many words recorded...
In history, it was just a few days.
But its impact was unmatched by many civil wars in the empire... In the years that followed, it left a deep impression on the Adak people in the desert. It seemed that from then on, the desert countries began to pay attention to the research on gunpowder and firearms in the Zambutal region.
After all, under normal circumstances, the physical fitness of the Adak people is stronger than that of the people in the Zambutal countries, so the average level of the Orderers is higher.
A famous scholar, Ross Leonard, once said that we should thank the Creator for his magic, which allowed people in every region to love the land under their feet, and that there were chaos and fighting, insidiousness and cunning, betrayal and conspiracy at any time. Otherwise, if the desert peoples attacked collectively, it would be hard to say whether the countries in the Zambutar region could withstand it.
But no matter what.
This battle in the Oro region also gave the generals on the front lines hope of victory...
…………………………
Sean looked at the ruins in the valley before him, including the high walls that had collapsed inward.
Claude's calculations turned out to be correct. If the wall collapsed outwards, it would be a different story!
My ears are still buzzing...
"Sir...sir!"
Turning to look at Joseph, Barnier and the others, including the witches, they all had the same expression on their faces.
"Sean... you destroyed the entire wall?!!" The scene before her was so shocking that Karlyana forgot to use respectful titles in front of people and just instinctively called out the name.
Just half an hour ago, everyone present had mentally prepared to die. If the defense line was breached, the soldiers of Oro City would be no match for the enemy in the open battle. The only thing they could think of was to give up everything to ensure that the lord and some high-level soldiers returned to the city, and then rely on the city's residents and the city wall defenses to resist until the arrival of the imperial reinforcements.
But that would mean all the surrounding towns would be abandoned!
The Oro region, which was built with great difficulty, was completely destroyed, and it is not known whether the city wall can hold out for a few more days like this side... After all, there are still so many people in the city, and this is already where most of the troops in Oro City are.
However……
In such a short time, the balance turned around!!
Changing rapidly? Or just reversing?
Karyana couldn't find a good adjective for a moment. She always felt that it was too dreamy, but at the same time she also felt a sense of relief.
I'm afraid the others around me feel the same way...
Joseph and Barnier looked at each other. It was true that they all had their own plans some time ago, but they didn't need them anymore... What kind of person was this who could be so cruel as to blow up an entire traffic artery as a grave for the enemy, and do it without anyone knowing!
"What a pity, we thought it was a trade route leading to Adak." Sean said.
Seeing the people in front of me have an immediate positive impression of me...
Ugh, it’s all so real!
"No, I will bring people to open it when the time comes. Don't worry about this... sir." Joseph suddenly assured him.
Then?
In fact, Sean wanted to send people in to finish off the dead, because there must be people who were not dead. Maybe they were injured by the explosion or crushed by the big rocks. However, once the high wall collapsed, there was no way to go inside. The big rocks were piled more than ten meters high, and there was a possibility of another landslide at any time.
And I’m afraid that the condition of my soldiers is not very good!
"Sir, what should we do now?" At this moment, Joseph already had great admiration for the young earl in front of him.
He felt so lucky to be able to follow such a lord who was about to become great. Now thinking back, there must be a reason why Earl Sean was able to hold a high position at such a young age. And it was definitely not the kind of thing that was said in the neighborhood that Earl Sean had the opportunity to show his face among the high-level officials because he became the mistress of a famous witch.
His own abilities, wisdom, and methods far surpassed those of many nobles...
"Count the wounded brothers, and then wait for reinforcements from other towns to arrive before we begin cleaning up the battlefield. Eliminate any living enemies on the spot, and bring the remains of our soldiers out separately!"
"Yes, my lord." Only then did Joseph realize that this was why the lord count had asked people to contact the surrounding towns in advance.
hiss~
The more I think about it, the more scared I feel.
Could it be that the Earl had thought of all this during those days of the war stalemate? ! !
Master, this is a master.
