1819 Falcon's Arrow (9)

The fat man stood on the top of the hill and watched a bright white line spread from the upper reaches of Danny City, the stirring wind made his black hair fly in the sun, looking at the Gallic scout cavalry cruising in the direction of Danny, he was frightened by the sight and ran in panic, his face did not have too many expressions, the rolling torrent churned the earth, the speed of the flood spread, even exceeding the speed of the Gallic war horses to escape, swept away people and horses, and I don't know how Statunko hoarded so much water, and in the blink of an eye, it overflowed the large plain in front of Danny City, Some of the dilapidated houses outside the city were swept into the debris that drifted with the waves, and under the power of the sky, all the obstacles were swept away in one fell swoop, like a huge cluster of arrows piercing through the plateau called Danny.

"Beat the drums, put up the flag!" the fat man retracted his gaze and raised his hand, he wanted to tell Sù Algernon Katya, didn't he want to come by himself, so now, I came! The other party may still be imagining that he will roll in the mud, he needs to tell him, who is the one who is about to roll in the mud, dozens of infantry formations are lined up, and the falcon army is marching forward in unison, like a black steel wall moving slowly, behind the neat spear stabbing phalanx is a phalanx of archers holding crossbows, ten huge leather drums stand solemnly under the largest golden falcon flag, and twenty strong men with red upper bodies vigorously wield drum hammers, making a drum sound like rolling thunder,

"Bastard!"

Standing on the walls of Denny, Algernonkatya's face was the same color as the flooded land, so black that it seemed to be able to drip water. His green muscles protruded on the battlements, his eyes looked like a wolf at the army that appeared from the horizon in the distance, the falcon army walked neatly like a person, marching majestically with the dull sound of drums and knocks, and finally it was like one mountain after another stopped at the edge of the flood, countless falcon battle flags fluttered in the wind, the battle array was like a cloud, and the black army array was shivering cold in the sun,

Every drum beat from the opposite side seemed to hit the hearts of the Gauls. The soldiers' faces were pale. The generals had a look of timidity on their faces. "Don't be fooled, the Falcon's logistics have been cut off, and now it's just a bluff!" Algernonkatya said loudly, "As long as we hold on, the Falcon will retreat"

The flood lasted for more than an hour before revealing the black soil, which had become completely muddy. The human foot stepped on it. I can go straight to the little feet. It takes a lot of strength to pull it out, and it's even more difficult to move if you're wearing combat armor.

Such a land is not just a few hundred meters. Rather, it was three or four miles wide, completely blocking the area in front of the exit of the city of Denny, and the situation after the flood began to be unsettling, and the faces of Algernonkatya and the generals became ugly, and everyone realized the fact that they were trapped,

The falcon army was staring at the opposite side, with long spears in rows, crossbows and bows, like beasts with huge mouths open, and countless arrows flashing in the sunlight reminded the Gauls very clearly that they didn't even need to fight, and they could shoot all the Gallic troops out of the city in the mud with terrifying crossbow arrows.

"Order the troops to hold on! it must be more difficult for the other side than we are."

Algernonkatya took a deep breath and ordered the generals in an affirmative tone, in his heart, he firmly believed that the Vikia Falcon was bluffing, but the timing of the other party's appearance was too good, and then the flood and the army overwhelmed the city, causing great turmoil to the hearts of the people in the city, which was not important, Algernonkatya firmly believed that in less than five days, the fierce Falcon Army under the city would become a dead dog in the mud, and then he could wield a big stick and beat the water dog, "Your Majesty, do you need to give an order to siege the city?" The Governor of the South, Statunko, asked the fat man for instructions

The fat man waved his hand with a flat expression, "No, Danny City is already a dead city, there is no need to let the soldiers be killed or wounded! Tomorrow, Salonn will personally lead a large number of supply convoys to arrive, and find that the supply of our army has not been affected at all, at that time, Daniel himself will collapse! It's just that Hukochili doesn't know what's wrong, and there is still definite news!"

The fat man's face showed a trace of worry, the 20,000 imperial cavalry that Hukochili brought to ambush Hasenlimpo have not returned yet, but only sent back a battle report, the Gallic Sixth Army, known as Kraft Candy, is completely finished, under the full force of Hukochili's blow, Hasenlimpo's Sixth Army of tens of thousands of troops were all wiped out on the border between Danny and Philippe Province, but Hasenlimpo, who was necessary to capture, did not seem to be caught as scheduled, according to the battle report, it was too chaotic at that time, plus the back of the river, Hasenranbo, who was unwilling to be captured, desperately jumped into the river and escaped, and the cavalry had opened the search net in the river。

On the 31st of August, the Falcon cavalry searched the river, and the whole forest was covered with birch, thorn, beech, and oak trees, and the clattering branches surrounded them like walls. The flat ground was covered with green moss and thick weeds, and there was hardly any sound for people to walk on it. There are no trails in sight, and even if there are, they have long been obliterated by the dense barren grass.

Everywhere there were unkempt leaf holly, wild plum trees, ferns, dense and tall thorns, and no one could be seen beyond ten paces. In order not to miss anything, the cavalry dismounted from their horses, and in a row of hundreds of men in the manner of infantry, they used their weapons to sweep through the bushes, and searched forward step by step like a comb.

At that time, the assault caused a great chaos in the Gallic army, and many Gauls chose to jump into the rolling river between being trampled to death by war horses and jumping into the river and drowning, "Look for it immediately, see people in life, and see corpses in death!"

Thinking of the Falcon Majesty's thunderous face, Hu Keqili secretly complained, and immediately ordered the cavalry to search downstream along the river, and finally found the target more than ten miles downstream of the river, a search team was attacked during the search, and when the reinforcements arrived, there were only three of the ten people left, all of them wounded, because before the battle, the drawing of the target Hasenlimbo had been circulated to the whole army, and the remaining three cavalry were very sure to point out. They were attacked not only by Hasenlampo himself, but also by two guards and a woman, who "snatched a horse in the chaos and ran into the dense forest on the east side of the river."

The bloodied cavalry leaned on the trunk of the tree, covering the wounds of the wounds, and there were the corpses of several Gauls lying on the ground, dressed as a general's attendant, and the attackers were not having a good time, and four were killed in the counterattack, these desperately guarded the commander to the last attendant, looking into the distance with bulging eyes, "Order the teams to move closer to me!"

Hukochili rolled up the drawing of Hasenrimbaud in his hand. To the east of the river is in the direction of Daniel. Hasenlimpo is going to flee to Danny. The cavalry rushed into the woods, and from time to time there were herons and pheasants flying in the bushes, and the other party walked in a panic, breaking many branches. Grass that was stepped on. Faint footprints. There were also bloodstained twigs and fragments of clothing. It is clear that not so long ago, the target had stayed here. Or bandaged the wound here.

"There were four of them, but there was only one horse, and one was seriously wounded! The horse was supposed to be used to carry the wounded! Such a team could not run fast unless the other gave up everyone else and ran away on horseback." The scout cavalry at the front stood up from these marks, the forest was too dark, the cavalry couldn't speed up, they were tripped by the vines as they ran, and they violently waved their knives to cut the vines and clear a passable road, and in the afternoon, the pursuing troops had entered the range of Danny, and the range of the dense forest was shrinking,

"Hold on to him, be sure to catch him!" The cavalry could all sense that the target was nearby, and the signal of finding the target was sent from the front, and the cavalry hurriedly followed

In a hidden place in the dense forest, Hasenlampo leaned on the mossy trunk in pain, his ribs were wounded by Yan zhòng's arrows, the wound was infected because he jumped into the torrent, the wound was hot and stinging, and all kinds of chaotic pictures were churning in his mind, his whole person was in a semi-comatose state, and he could only feel countless figures shaking in front of him, and the world in front of him began to distort and deform, and his consciousness was blurred little by little...... He was horrified to find that he had slowly lost the ability to think, which was a precursor to the beginning of a collapse of his will. Purely a knee-jerk reaction,

After running for most of the day, it has consumed all the strength of the escapees, and it feels that no matter how hard they struggle, they can't get rid of the ghostly searchers behind them, but fortunately, an attendant rode a war horse and ran in the opposite direction, so that the pursuers behind him were thrown away a large distance, but the traces of the Falcon Army will find their mistakes and readjust the search range, which will be very dangerous at that time!

"My lord, you have to hold on! There are still a dozen miles to go before Danny." Adjutant Andaline and a squire set him up with a wooden frame one after the other, the tall squire walked in front, Andaline walked behind, Hasenranpo's gaze was on Andaline's face for a long time, there was no beauty who was once beautiful, at this time her hair was covered with fallen leaves and dirt, her pretty face was a little more pale, and under the green vine used to bear the wooden frame, there were blood stains oozing out of her clothes, and when she was resting, Andalyn used the wet cloth in her hand to constantly stroke his forehead, bringing a cool look to the half-dazed Hasenlimbo who had been burned

The attendant nervously observed the movements around him, half-squatting, holding the short sword of the attendant in his hand, the search ability of the falconry army was too strong, if they knew that among the cavalry collecting them, there were many tracking masters on the grassland, just because they were not familiar with the difference between the dense forest and the grassland rope, and they had staggered past them a few times, they would feel how lucky they were,

They had tried hiding in hidden caves, climbing to high places, and even wading through water in forest streams, but each time they thought they had shaken off the trail behind them, for a maximum of an hour, there was another loud noise and noise behind them, and the chase was getting tighter and closer.

Fleeing and pursuing, this is a cruel test of will and body for both sides. The problem, however, is that one side has an almost infinite number of bodies and reinforcements, ready to replace the exhausted soldiers with a lively new force, while the other side has only a few isolated men, no food, no rest, no water...... What's more, there is no hope, Hasenrimbaud's heart is still full of confusion, how can this be, why did the cavalry of the Falcon Empire, as if they had known it for a long time, ambush themselves on the road to flee to Philip's Sixth Army,

The number of people who know about this plan, in Danny, there are definitely no more than five,

Each of them was Algernonkatya's confidants and trusted people, could there be something wrong with it! Hasenrambo shook his head, which was getting more and more confused from the high fever. The fingers tightly grasped the soil under him, and the fingertips felt a heart-piercing pain, but this pain was completely incomparable with the pain in the heart, and the feeling of being betrayed was like the most violent poison churning in the heart.

If, if I knew who it was, I would have broken it into thousands of pieces! For the sake of the tens of thousands of subordinates who were unwilling to die! Just a little bit, as long as I crossed the pontoon bridge, it would be a safe place. But. It was that little gap, and the tens of thousands of soldiers who went home full of joy were pushed and crushed by countless war horses in front of their eyes. Turned into a cold corpse. I was stunned at that moment. It was Andaline who pulled herself into the river with a few attendants, rising and falling along the current, constantly fleeing. He couldn't rest for twenty hours, and even with his superhuman will, he couldn't withstand the torture. What's more, he was also wounded by an arrow, and in this dense forest, everyone had already lost their way, and they were moving towards the expected Danny in the dark, running without even knowing where they were.

"I can't do it, you guys go, even if the Falcon Army catches me, they won't kill me!"

Hasenrambo struggled to his feet, moving his numb feet to make them come alive. You could feel that the wound was bleeding again, and he staggered a few steps, and almost fell into a pit filled with rainwater, if it wasn't for Andaline's timely support, he would have been wet. The dense branches seem to be consciously drilling straight into the wounds on the body,

"I won't leave the Falcon alive!Because I know that the Falcon Army won't let the Falcon Army capture alive!" Andalyn looked at him with affection, gritted her teeth with a crimson face, and suddenly kicked at Hasenlimpo's other hand, a small dagger with cold light on the ground, and kicked the dagger to the grass.

Hasenlampo's face was a little stunned, "You, how do you know!" Andalene said, "Don't forget, hiding a small dagger on your waist can end your life at a critical moment and keep your honor from being insulted, this is what adults specially taught me!"

"Attention! The Falcon is coming!"

The sentry attendant said in a low voice, a human voice came from a distance, and the scalps of the three people who listened to it exploded, very close, almost fifty meters away, there was no room to hide, and when it was time to choose, Andalyn stood up resolutely, patted the grass clippings on her clothes, and pulled out the sword at her waist, "Figedi, the lord entrusted it to you!"

"No, it should be me this time!!" the attendant known as Figdie stood up, stopped her with his hand, and whispered, "Your Excellency needs someone who can support him on his way, and no one can replace this except you!"

"Figedi!"

"Give me your sword, and if you can, you might be able to confuse your enemies!"

The squire glanced into the distance, smiled at the corner of his mouth, lowered his head to Hasenlampo, put his hand on his chest and saluted, and said, "My lord, you must persevere, for the sake of those dead brothers, please continue to fight the Falcon Army!" With a gust of wind, the squire quickly accelerated in another direction, where the cliff could be seen in the distance, and the Falcon Army cavalry, which had approached fifty meters, quickly headed towards the direction of the squire's run

"Let's go, my lord!" said Andalyn, trying to pick up Hasenrambo,

"Figedi!" Hasenlampo burst into tears and snapped his tongue, spurred by sharp pain, and he was much more awake. Every step was accompanied by a piercing pain. He had to bite his clothes so as not to cry out, and his muscles twitched: even the iron-clad hero could not endure such terrible torture, and his wounds ached fiercely. There was a continuous tearing pain between my chest and abdomen, and I was so thirsty that my lips were already chapped. He took Andalen's hand, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, let's go, the face with a high fever turned a dark red, Andalin's hand was like a piece of ice, which was a sign of overdraft.

"My lord, we've found a target!"

The cavalry chasing the target saw the figure jumping from the cliff, and immediately sent people to the bottom of the valley to check, which took some time, to check the return of the people, below was a hard pile of rocks, people fell from a high place, the whole person was folded into a pulp, the face was rotten, the only thing found was this, the person who investigated took out a cold command short sword, the silver-white sword body is gorgeous, this is the style of the Gallic general's command sword, Hukochili held this sword with an ugly face, Hasenlimpo died......? Whether it's true or not, I can't help but be scolded!

"My lord, do you want to continue your search?" the Imperial Cavalry asked,

Hukochili was silent. He looked at the tired faces of the cavalry, it rained all night, and fought fiercely for half a night, and it was a continuous nervous collection, and it was not as simple as not finding the target, these imperial cavalry still had more important combat missions, what everyone needed now was to rest, Hu Keqili looked at the Gallic general sword in his hand and stopped for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't look for it, assemble, let's return to the base camp!"
