Lord of Riders

Chapter 264



King harlaus was delighted when he heard the soldiers\' report. This seemingly abnormal move of the Anglo empire was nothing more than an obvious message that they were also threatened.

At this time, the siege has reached a critical moment. They have won a certain degree. As long as they continue to attack, they may break through the defensive line of the kingdom of Swadia and control part of the city defense of Palaven. However, at this time, they suddenly closed the army, which basically greatly weakened their offensive.

It must be a result. The main force of Shaoming Kingdom has arrived near palavin, and the troops of the Anglo Empire have received intelligence. In order to prevent the sudden attack of Shaoming Kingdom, they have to draw out a large number of troops to prevent Shaoming kingdom. But they didn\'t want to stop attacking the city, so they would have wasted all their previous efforts.

The Shaoming Kingdom\'s troops entering the city must be more than the Anglo Empire attacking the city, and the strength of the Shaoming kingdom is not easy to estimate.

In this era of cold weapons, the news is not particularly well-informed. Now these troops came out early to sneak attack palawen. It is not clear that Shaoyu\'s army captured kulau and wiped out tens of thousands of troops of Dun in a short time. But Balka is also a tight person. He doesn\'t want to expose any obvious shortcomings and loopholes to give Shaoming Kingdom an opportunity.

Sometimes an unknown enemy brings more worry.

Just like people\'s fear of ghosts and gods, in fact, people are not afraid of ghosts and gods, but out of fear of unknown threats. Even if a pure and firm non ghost theorist puts him into a quiet and endless darkness, they can\'t help feeling that there seems to be something terrible staring at him in the darkness.

Of course, Barka was not afraid of Shao Yu\'s reinforcements as he was afraid of ghosts and gods, and he was not afraid, but cautious. Because of caution, Barka gathered the army and didn\'t give the other party a chance to sneak attack.

Sure enough, as expected, soon the army of Shaoming Kingdom appeared in the sight of palawen garrison.

The army of Shaoming kingdom is completely charged.

First, tens of thousands of cavalry rushed to the front. All the cavalry were equipped with sleeveless plate armor made of steel. The cavalry rushed to the army of the Anglo empire with lances.

The soldiers of the Anglo-Saxon Empire were already ready and immediately pointed their spears at the cavalry of the Shaoming kingdom.

For the convenience of attacking the city, the spearmen of the Anglo Empire were very small in this regiment. Only 10000 of the 100000 troops are spearmen, just to deal with the charge of the cavalry Corps. Now it comes in handy.

Seeing that the troops of the Anglo Saxon empire are ready here, Irene knows that the cavalry charge must not work. Even if he kills the enemy, his own casualties may be large, and the subsequent reinforcements have not arrived, so Irene does not intend to fight hard.

Elaine took the cavalry around like a demonstration show. Soon led the cavalry back, the two sides did not fight, but they sent a clear message.

For the defenders of the kingdom of svadia, the reinforcements of the kingdom of Shaoming have arrived. They don\'t have to worry too much about whether Palaven will lose. For the Anglo Empire, we should consider whether this battle will continue.

The intervention of Shaoming kingdom made the balance of war tilt to the kingdom of Swadia.

"Remember, what I want is absolute victory. Defeat them completely! It\'s a mistake for them to send the navy to the land. The crossbow soldiers press on and directly defeat their main force for me, and the cavalry cut off their back. I want their navy to come and go." Shaoyu ordered the army to stop and camp only five miles away from Palaven, Summoned his generals and said the above paragraph.

Now the army morale of Shaoming kingdom is booming. Shaoyu is not worried about whether Palaven will be broken by the Anglo Empire, because Shaoyu will eat these Anglo Empire troops now.

The soldiers of Shaoming Kingdom packed up the camp, placed horses and began to march towards palavan under the leadership of their respective Lords.

They didn\'t ride horses. After all, they weren\'t cavalry.

"Governor, the reinforcements of Shaoming Kingdom have arrived. I\'m afraid it\'s difficult for us to capture palavan as soon as possible. Should we withdraw to the sea first and wait for Marshal Dunn\'s army?" a young general suggested to Barka when the Anglo-Saxon Empire found a change in the situation

"No, we went back to the sea and let the troops of Shaoming Kingdom enter the city. At that time, we will have to pay more military losses to break Palaven. We still control the initiative and at least stop the convergence of the defenders of Shaoming Kingdom and Palaven." Barka quickly thought about this question and immediately replied

"We must control the initiative, pass my order, withdraw the siege troops back to defend Shaoming Kingdom, and we can\'t let them join the defenders," Barka ordered

"Are we not going back to sea tonight?" asked the general

"Ah, don\'t withdraw, stare at them, send soldiers to send a message to field marshal Dunn, hoping that field marshal Dunn can arrive at Palaven as soon as possible. I don\'t think these troops of Swadia Kingdom and Shaoming kingdom can eat us in a few days!" Barka said firmly

Balka knows they\'re at a disadvantage now. Shaoming Kingdom and swadian Kingdom have more troops than them, but it is definitely not something that can be accomplished overnight to destroy his army with 60000 people.

Balka was confident that even if the coalition forces of the kingdom of svadia and the kingdom of Shaoming wiped out his 60000 troops regardless of losses, the coalition forces of the kingdom of svadia and Shaoyu would no longer be able to resist, or would lose their resistance due to heavy losses, when Dunn\'s army came to Palaven.

And Balka doesn\'t think the two armies can really destroy his army at that time.

After considering the changes of the war situation, Barka immediately ordered to stop the siege and ordered the soldiers to start camping not far from palavin, ready to meet the Shaoming army who came to support.

"Your Majesty, Balka\'s army is camped in the southeast of the city, only three miles away from our palavan."

Palavin, the scouts who went out inquired about the trend of the Anglo Empire and came back to report to harlaus

"Shaoming Kingdom, what\'s the situation now?" King harlaus nodded and then asked

"The army of Shaoming kingdom is advancing slowly here. It seems that they are going to launch a direct attack," scouts reported

"What? Are they going to attack? The Anglo Empire? How can you tell?" King harlaus asked with a frown
