Chapter 239 [Yin and Yang] (II)

In the afternoon, we arrived at the scheduled location.

It's a valley. There is a forest on the left, a hillside on the right, and a field in the middle, but it seems that there are more people walking, and it forms a bare dirt road.

Chen Xiaolian didn't see where Merlin's men were ambushed, so he had to continue to lead the people forward and walked to the end of the hillside.

The big-headed guy has made a meritorious contribution again.

This guy told Chen Xiaolian that he had been here when he was smuggling wine, and knew that there was a depression not far behind the hillside, which was not ventilated, and there was a hillside to block the view, which was the best place to hide.

Chen Xiaolian personally ran over to take a look, and found that this was the tail of the hillside, forming a natural small gourd mouth, with mountains on three sides, and a small flat bottom in the middle, which was about the size of half a basketball court.

And the side slope is very gentle, so it is not difficult to climb up. As long as you leave two people lying on the hillside and watching, you can ensure safety.

"Good place!" Chen Xiaolian praised.

The spare tire also nodded: "Ambush here, it's generally not easy to be found." ”

"Then rest. Our target is not expected to arrive until the night. Chen Xiaolian thought for a while: "Don't make a fire tonight!" Sue those guys, whoever catches up with even one spark will directly break his leg. ”

The mercenaries didn't complain too much about not being allowed to light fires.

The days of drinking cold water and nibbling on hard black bread, they are used to it anyway.

In the valley, the mercenaries lay on their backs.

At this time, Chen Xiaolian did not restrain them anymore. He knew that before the big war, everyone should have enough rest and recover their bodies.

But God seems to be a little faceless.

When the sun goes down, the wind hangs. It also rained lightly.

This made Chen Xiaolian a little worried in his heart.

The spare tire lay on the hillside and was responsible for guarding and watching.

Chen Xiaolian was in the valley, asking everyone to try to avoid the rain by the side of the mountain.

Unfortunately, in the evening, the rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.

The mercenaries were all doused in the soup - if it weren't for Chen Xiaolian's forcible suppression with majesty, these rabble would have dispersed in a hurry and ran to the woods opposite to take shelter from the rain.

Listen to the mercenaries' complaints and swearing. Chen Xiaolian sat quietly on the side, looking at the time from time to time.

At the same time, he did not forget to pay attention to the radar in the system.

I don't know what this vanguard army is tonight...... Will there be game participants in the opposing camp?

Will it be the player, or will it be the Awakened?

......

In the second half of the night, Chen Xiaolian was closing his eyes to recuperate, and suddenly, he received a call for a spare tire in the team channel.

"Someone's coming!"

Chen Xiaolian jumped suddenly!

"It's all quiet!!"

Chen Xiaolian ran around the valley quickly, making everyone silent, and a few who were sleeping and snoring were also woken up, and everyone squatted down against the hillside together.

The spare tire is still lying on the hillside looking out.

Spare tire at the moment. In the midst of the heavy rain, the whole body has gained momentum.

The rain seemed to be a little lighter, but it was still windy.

On the field, a group of black shadows could be seen slowly coming.

There are still people holding torches, but the flames of this torch are swaying in the wind, and the amount of Cheng dù that can be illuminated is really limited.

No one rode horses, all were infantrymen, as Merlin said.

The spare tire is lying on the hillside. Motionless, silently estimating the number of each other in his heart.

The opposing ranks were also loose and crumbling - as was the case with most of the medieval armies. And there's no discipline.

However, at the end of the procession, there was a relatively uniformly dressed soldier, and the shield mountain in the hands of these soldiers was marked with a white cross.

The ranks of these people are slightly more extensive.

Finally, there are two men on horseback, who look like commanders at first glance.

It was only at night that the dirt road became more and more muddy after being washed away by the rain, and the horses' hooves trampled it. It's hard to walk.

The spare tire estimated in his heart, and the number of people on the other side seemed to be close to a thousand!

That's almost the upper end of Merlin's estimate.

The queue dragged on for a long time, and it took twenty minutes to pass the guò on the hillside where the spare tire was located.

Some people scolded, some shouted. And the neighing of horses.

Finally, after these people passed, the spare tire quietly slid down the hillside, ran to Chen Xiaolian's side, and wiped the rain on his face vigorously.

"There were close to a thousand, probably more than expected. The spare tire said quickly: "There are no cavalry, but there are two commanders, riding horses." The equipment is not bad, a third of them are regular soldiers. ”

Chen Xiaolian noticed that the spare tire spoke Chinese.

He immediately understood and nodded.

Chen Xiaolian glanced around, all the mercenaries were looking at him with complicated eyes, some were nervous, some were excited, some were afraid, and some were eager to try.

"Listen up!"

Chen Xiaolian stood up straight and walked to the middle of everyone: "Our goal has come! As we judged before, their number is not large, less than five hundred!"

Chen Xiaolian opened his mouth and reduced the number of people on the other side by half.

"And...... They had already walked a long way, and they had traveled overnight, and their bodies had been almost exhausted, and many of them were almost unable to walk, not to mention holding weapons!" Chen Xiaolian tried his best to boost his morale: "And don't forget jì, we are not alone! There are Lord Merlin, and the two hundred men led by the Taylor Buddha Knight ambush them on the other side of the valley! The Taylor Buddha Knight has a full hundred cavalry under him!

There are no walled cities here, and you all know that in the plains, a cavalry charge is irresistible to the infantry!

We have won this battle!"

After some words, the fear and nervousness on the faces of the mercenaries were mostly eliminated.

"You remember! These guys are not vulnerable at all! They are no match for us! They are just a herd of lambs who come over to give us trophies! Yes, yes! They are lambs! A herd of lambs to the slaughter!!"

Chen Xiaolian waved his arms vigorously and shouted in a low voice: "Now, check your weapons and equipment! Put your shoes on! I don't want someone to trip over themselves when I go to harvest the spoils of war for a while!"

"Hahahaha......"

Several mercenaries couldn't help but laugh, these people were real tough people. The knives and axes in his hands have been sharpened!

Chen Xiaolian led the team to the mouth of the valley and carefully stared at the other end of the valley in the distance, waiting for the flame signal that Merlin said.

He didn't have any more tactics in place.

It's night, fighting at night, plus this is a group of medieval mercenaries, and it's a joke to talk to them about what kind of coordinated battles.

This kind of time. The right time, the right place and the right people are all occupied. As long as they can give full play to the characteristics of "rushing up" on weekdays, it is probably enough.

To Chen Xiaolian's surprise, he waited for more than ten minutes......

On the other side of the valley, there was no flame signal!

Chen Xiaolian felt a little uneasy in his heart.

This valley is not very long, and it takes only 20 minutes to walk to the end!

At this time...... It stands to reason that Merlin should have already launched an attack and fought.

But...... The flame signal has not been sent out for a long time?

After waiting for another two minutes, Chen Xiaolian felt a chord in his heart!

"Don't wait! Let's go!" Chen Xiaolian took a deep breath: "Things are a little wrong! I didn't see the flame signal...... I suspect it was because of the heavy rain overnight that they couldn't find dry wood to light the fire!!

There's no point in waiting any longer! They should have already done it by this time! Otherwise, the target will be out of the ambush in the valley!"

"Then we ......"

"Let's go!!"

......

A war horse's roar.

A cavalryman struggled in the mud. Pull the reins hard.

But the horses' hooves were stuck in the mud, and it was difficult to walk!

The whole team struggled through the wilderness.

Merlin was at the head of the line, sitting on a warhorse, his robes soaked with rain running down his beard.

Merlin's face is very ugly, and his eyes are becoming more and more terrifying!!

They are delayed!!

Because in the morning, the guide led the way with the wrong section, which made the team walk at least ten miles more!

And in the evening it started to rain. Heavy rain makes the roads muddy!

Especially the 100 cavalry!

The cavalrymen were all wearing heavy armor! such a load, on a muddy road. War horses are struggling!

They are already far behind schedule!

At this time, I'm afraid the target has already entered the ...... The ambush location has even been passed!!

Furious, Merlin had already cut down that stupid guide at night!

The plan for this ambush battle is probably about to ......

And I still have a partial division, a hundred mercenaries, I don't know if I have arrived at the designated place!

The plan I originally made with a high degree of success was because of a stupid guide. And this damn weather and going bankrupt......

How can Merlin, who is arrogant, endure it in his heart?!

"How far are we from our destination!!" Merlin angrily called out to one of the soldiers.

The soldier immediately took out the map and looked at it, and said loudly, "Your Excellency...... And less than a kilometer at most!"

Merlin's heart is cross!

"We can't go on like this!, give the order to the cavalry to leave the area as much as possible!

Others...... All the infantry picked up speed and followed me!!abandon heavy armor!shields. I don't need any rations or anything!Follow me with only my weapons!!"

I, Merlin, will never accept such a failure!!

Merlin's heart roared with anger!!

With that, Merlin jumped off his horse and rushed over to grab Taylor Fer, who was struggling in the mud.

"Tyler Ford Knight!!"

Merlin's eyes almost burst into flames, and Taylor Buddha's heart froze.

"Listen! I'll put all the cavalry under your command! I'll charge first with the infantry!! I'll give you only one request...... You have done everything you can to bring me the cavalry!!I hope that when I stop the Londoners, your cavalry will come to your aid at the crucial moment!! If this battle is successful, I will personally ask King William for your credit!! I promise you that you will be given the title of a true nobleman! You will no longer be a knight of Taylor-Fer, but a Lord or a baronet of Taylor-Ferdin!!, depending on what you do!!"

......

[Two more complete!!]

I wish you all a happy holiday!!
