150 Episode 22 After the Battle of Bellejuen Pass (1/2)

It was raining hard that day.

The rain poured down in torrents, wetting the earth and creating a mire.

However, the cobblestone roads once laid by the Lemurian Empire were still intact, and the Bulgaron army was able to continue its march without getting trapped in the mud.

King Bulgalon, with more than a thousand cavalrymen, had crossed the mountain range to repel the invading Lemurian Empire.

”You, Crom and Territorial ......, will see when this war is over.

King Bulgalon was trembling with anger.

King Bulgalon was trembling with anger, especially at the betrayal of the Crom Clan.

He was especially angry at the betrayal of the Krom people, who, in his opinion, had betrayed him first.

”Traitors. ...... Alicia Crom!

King Vulgaron shouts the name of Alicia, the whore who sold his country to the Lemurian Empire.

It was already known to many Bulgarons that Alicia had sold herself to the Lemurian emperor to beg for her life and that the Krom clan had betrayed the Bulgaron kingdom as a result.

There are three kinds of thoughts that people have when they hear this story.

One, ”Alicia Krom is a whore and a coward who sold out her country to the Emperor of Lemuria.

Two, ”Alicia Crom is a hapless princess who sacrificed herself to a tyrant for the sake of the Crom clan.

Three, ”The Cotormiers are ungrateful, heartless people who put Alicia Krom in a situation where she had no choice but to do so.

The first comment is mainly from the Bulgarons of the Kotormia faction, the second from the Bulgarons of the Lemurian faction and the subjects of the Lemurian Empire, and the third from the neutral Bulgarons, including the Territorial clans.

However, there are exceptions.

”Oh, Alicia, ...... why, are you okay, ......?

There is one man who is worrying about it.

This is Telerig, the prince of the Bulgaron Kingdom and Alicia's fiancé.

Terelig regretted that he was the reason for Alicia's outburst.

He regretted the cruel words he had spoken to her.

And at the same time ......

Did Alicia really do such a thing? ......

Alicia's betrayal was always followed by rumors that she had licked the shoes of the Emperor of Lemuria.

Not only that, but it is also said that she was stripped naked in public and raped.

Telerig was filled with remorse for having caused Alicia's unhappiness, a sense of loss and burning jealousy that Alicia had been taken from him, and hatred for the Lemurian Emperor.

”Terelig, stop slouching!

”I'm sorry, Father.

King Bulgalon scolded him, and Terelig came to himself.

King Bulgalon snickered.

”Forget about that whore. If you really want it, win the war. Then chop off her hands and feet and turn her into a mirror. Then you'll never be able to do what you want again.

”Yes, yes .......

Telerig nodded vaguely at the angry King Bulgalon.

It's not like Terelig has a taste for cutting off women's limbs.

Concentrate on the battle for now. There may be Lemurian infiltrators lurking somewhere.

That's when King Bulgalon said that.

Something black covered the heads of King Bulgalon and Telerig.

Being good warriors, they immediately realized that it was a rain of arrows and hurried to raise their shields.

In an instant, their shields turn into hedgehogs.

”Where did it come from?

'From the bushes in the forest!　I can't tell how many there are because of the rain, but ...... there are about a hundred!

”Lemurian archers!　You're being clever. ......

King Bulgalon immediately sent his troops to try and eliminate the Lemurian Empire's ambushers.

But the surprise attack that had just taken place had injured several high-ranking generals who had been with King Bulgalon and Telerig, and some of the chain of command had been disrupted, making it impossible to eliminate the ambushers as planned.

And ......

”Your Majesty, the King!　We're in trouble!　We're being attacked from behind!　The flag belongs to the Krom clan!

The Bulgurons were in a state of panic.

Alicia's plan was as follows.

The Bulgaron army is composed mainly of cavalry, and their route of advance is much more limited than that of infantry.

This is especially true when crossing the mountains, where they can only take roads that have a certain width and are well maintained.

Therefore, the Bulgaron army always passes through the Belejuen Pass.

Nia and her 120 troops, hiding in the forest, would launch a surprise attack to temporarily paralyze the chain of command, and then Alicia and her 200 troops from the Chromium Clan and Jebe would move in behind them, for a total of 220 troops.

The question is how to get around behind them. ......

Alicia, as his fiancée, had been to Terelig's ...... territory many times, that is, the territory of the Kotormir clan.

Naturally, she had also visited the Berejwen Pass many times.

It was possible for him to get ahead of them or use the trail to get behind them.

”Commence fire!

Commence fire!

At Alicia and Jebe's command, the arrows were released, and they rained down on the Bulgaron army in unison.

At the same time, the heavy cavalry charged, driving the Bulgurons back.

We can't lose, either. Let's charge!

Nia gave the soldiers short spears and led the charge herself.

The Bulgurons were caught off guard by a surprise attack from behind and were hit from the flank, throwing them into chaos.

The hobbled cavalry was no longer a threat.

Stuck in a state of complete panic, ......

Some of the Bulgarson soldiers begin to move north to escape the infantry coming from the south.

Once the flow of people is established, even the calmest of people can no longer resist.
