Twins and Ex-wife
Chapter 1443 Side Story of Jaden, Destroy the Fitzgerald army

Late last night, the young general of the Fitzgerald family, Alistair, with a small army, sneaked into the Huns camp and took advantage to set fire to their provisions. The greatest advantage of the Hun army was that they now had plenty of provisions in their army, and they naturally could not afford to let any of their provisions slip away. When the fire was discovered, the Hun soldiers were quick to put it out, but the east wind was blowing so hard last night that the fire could not be stopped.

The Huns army had been preparing provisions for a whole year, and they no longer had any advantage in terms of food and fodder.

Even the Fitzgerald army could barely support itself for a few days with the provisions brought from Jiangnan, but the Huns were already without rice for even their next meal.

The Huns army was far away from their base camp, plus there was already a shortage of food within the Huns country, and with the sudden destruction of so much grain and grass, they would not have been able to replace it in time.

Leading an army of half a million men in this attack on the Great Wei was the Huns' great general, Austin.

A decade ago, the Huns were defeated by the Fitzgerald army. The Huns had been emboldened by the Fitzgerald army and were divided into two factions within the Huns, the main peace faction and the main war faction.

The main peace faction decided that as long as the Fitzgerald army was still in place, they, the Huns, must not go to war with the Great Wei.

The main war faction, however, has always wanted to wipe out the shame of the past and fight to the death against the Fitzgerald army.

The main war faction had the upper hand in the subsequent struggle between the two factions. The fact that Austin led half a million troops on the expedition had already made the domestic main peace faction unhappy, but now they had lost so much food and provisions, and if they could not defeat the Fitzgerald army, the main peace faction would have to censure them to death in front of the Huns king.

If they could behead the Fitzgerald family and return home in triumph, it would be a different kind of scenery, and from then on, the main peace faction would no longer be able to compete with them! Austin desperately wanted to destroy the Fitzgerald army and completely overwhelm the main peace faction, so he no longer dared to wait, he beat the war drums himself, intending to take the border city and kill the Fitzgerald family!

In Austin's view, although the Fitzgerald army was brave and fierce, it only had 300,000 soldiers, while they had 500,000 troops. Moreover, he had already gotten the news that Emperor Wei wanted to put the Fitzgerald army to death, so he was afraid that this time, he could still make use of Emperor Wei to make this world with no more Fitzgerald army!

At this time, the Huns army had already started to attack the border city, and the Emperor Wei had even quietly built tunnels in the border city earlier. 30,000 of his own soldiers, following the tunnels, sneaked inside the border city and quietly cut down the Fitzgerald army, which could now be said to be under attack at the back and desperate at every step!

Kieran was a military genius, he had been in battle since he was a teenager and had achieved numerous miraculous feats, he was also the best at strategizing, but no matter how clever he was, he did not dare to think that the Emperor Wei would build tunnels in the border cities and send soldiers to kill the soldiers who were fighting on the front line when the two armies were at war.

Those who quietly entered the city were not only the 30,000 personal soldiers of the Emperor Wei, but also the 100,000 troops led by Xander, who even took advantage of the battle between the two armies to force open the city gates and let the Huns soldiers enter the city, slaughtering the people of the border city!

Even the soldiers under Xander took up the butcher's knife themselves, slaughtering the people of the border city so as to distract Kieran, so that they could destroy the power of the Fitzgerald army in one go. After listening to the spy's report, Sethaden's face was as dark and sullen.

The three generals were furious and cursed incessantly.

Throughout the ages, they had never heard of a king who had been so lethargic and brutal as to join forces with foreign enemies and slaughter his own people in order to kill the generals who had done so much for the country!

Such a heartless ruler should be eliminated by everyone!

The three generals had been taught to be loyal and patriotic all their lives, but at this moment, they only wanted to rebel against this dim-witted ruler!

Faced with the massacre of the soldiers, the people of the city had no power to fight back.

The people of the border city were defenceless when 30,000 of the Emperor Wei's own troops, as well as Xander's army, suddenly appeared in the border city.

Luckily, Kieran was quicker to react and he found out the exit of the underground passage in the city in time and ordered his soldiers to intercept Wei's troops who were trying to enter the city through the underground passage, so that all of Xander's soldiers would not sneak into the border city.

Emperor Wei could ignore the lives of the people in the city, but Kieran could not stand by and watch innocent people die in front of him.

He mobilised a set of Fitzgerald's troops to decimate the Emperor Wei's own soldiers and, more importantly, to protect the people of the city.

As long as there is one last Fitzgerald army who has not fallen, they will never forget their guardianship of the people.

Half a million Huns troops, Xander led 100,000 troops, plus 30,000 of the Emperor Wei's own troops, and the Emperor Wei's sharpest minions, the secret guards, adding up to almost 650,000 troops, while the Fitzgerald army, only 300,000, they also had to divide their troops to protect the people in the city, this battle, for the Fitzgerald army, actually seems like a massacre.

At that time, when the Huns came to invade, Kieran had already asked for troops to go out, but the Emperor Wei had been deliberately delaying, and by the time he led his army over, it was already too late to evacuate the people in the city, which made the situation of the Fitzgerald army more and more critical.

Sethaden's fists were clenched, Kieran had never wanted to plot a rebellion.

But the king had forced the issue and he had to rebel!

If this time, the Fitzgerald army can still return to the capital in triumph, there will be rebel!

What the Fitzgerald army guards has always been more than a mountain and river free from worry and peaceful people, not a dim-witted and brutal emperor!

Casey, Emperor of Wei, deserves to die!

The soldiers under the three generals also had a heartfelt admiration for the Fitzgerald army. They were still tired from the long journey, but now they heard that the Fitzgerald army had been attacked on their backs and that the Emperor Wei had not even spared the people in the city, they were so enraged that they did not feel tired even though they were walking fast.

They just want to grip the spear and slaughter, not to let the scheming of the unscrupulous emperor succeed, not to let the loyalists who are dedicated to the country and the people spill their blood on the frontier.

Without realising it, the army accelerated its journey.

There were some words that no one said, but everyone knew clearly in their hearts that if this time, all of Fitzgerald army was killed, they were only afraid that the Emperor Wei's lackeys would join hands with Huns to slaughter the city.

When the time comes, the Emperor Wei will definitely place the charge of slaughtering the city on the Fitzgerald army, and then, the Fitzgerald army will sacrifice for Wei, but in the end, they will still be tarnished as bandits!

On what grounds!

How is it that the loyal and virtuous are wronged and the sinister and cunning Emperor Wei is still able to sit on this great land?

Each of the 100,000 soldiers secretly gnashed their teeth.

They must not allow the Emperor Wei's machinations to succeed!

Because, if the Emperor Wei's plotting and scheming succeeds, the Fitzgerald army dies, the loyalists are gone, and this country, too, dies.......
