Chapter 255: Great Achievement
After two battles, although it was not a big victory, but the losses were much less than the opponent's, this result was not bad, but it did not meet Duran's expectations, he knew that the opponent's number of troops was twice as many as his own, even if he continued to fight at the current attrition, he was probably defeated in the end.
At night, Duran reported the military situation to Prince Arthur, and Prince Arthur frowned after listening to Duran's report: "In this way, our chances of victory are not good?"
Duran said: "Back to the prince, we still have 2,000 soldiers and horses, and the enemy army has more than 3,000 soldiers and horses. The last general's biggest concern now is that Cherry's men are guarding us while asking Jack for support, if Jack sends a large army to help, the enemy's two armies will converge and our army will be in danger. ”
Prince Arthur said: "How can we give up if Jack's thief doesn't get rid of us, if Sheri sends a request for help, he will send heavy troops to attack, we have to prepare in advance." Luckily, it's a long way from Caldor, and even if he sends reinforcements, it will take some time to arrive, so we can find a way to get out. ”
Duran said, "Where does the prince think we should move to?"
Prince Arthur said: "I have already thought about it, the dwarven king Radahan is a man who forgets his righteousness, and he must not continue to stay in his land, otherwise he will not know when he will be sold." Let's move to the undead territory in the north first, King Flino has a good relationship with the former king, and I believe he will take us in. ”
Duran said: "What the prince said is very true, in addition, the firearms such as muskets and grenades produced by the mechanical engineers are very powerful, and they will definitely come in handy in the future, but they will cost more money, and I ask the prince to support them." ”
Prince Arthur said: "You don't have to worry about this, how can this king be reluctant to give up this money, as long as it is equipment that can improve the combat effectiveness of the team, no matter how much you invest, you can let those mechanical engineers rest assured that they are bold in research." ”
The two discussed for a while, then dispersed.
Sure enough, as Duran and Arthur expected, Sheri only had 3,000 soldiers and horses left in his hands, and these soldiers and horses were not much more than the enemy, and they no longer had an absolute advantage in troops, and the enemy still had cities as cover, so it was difficult to predict the outcome if he launched a strong attack. In order to be on the safe side, he decided to adopt a strategy of besieging but not attacking, on the one hand, closely monitoring the movements of the enemy, and on the other hand, sending people to Caldor's city to ask Jack for help.
For the next few days, neither of them took the initiative to start a fight, and Duran instructed the mechanical engineers to work overtime to produce weapons in case they were needed. That day and night, Prince Arthur and Duran were drinking and chatting in the big tent, and Prince Arthur said, "What can you find out about the movements of Sheri's house these days?"
Duran said: "As we expected, Xie Li did not dare to attack rashly, he has sent someone to ask Jack for help, it seems that he wants to gather heavy troops to take us down in one fell swoop." ”
Arthur said: "I expected him to have this trick, continue to send people to closely monitor the enemy's every move, we are not optimistic now, we must find out the enemy's movements clearly, and what is the situation on the mechanical engineer's side?"
Duran said: "They are working overtime to produce muskets, grenades and other weapons, and a batch of weapons and equipment comes up every day, and more than 100 weapons will be produced at this pace." ”
Arthur said: "Very good, with this batch of new weapons, our combat effectiveness will be raised to a new level." ”
While the two were talking, suddenly a soldier hurried in and said, "Report to the prince and the general, the brothers standing guard have seen two wyverns flying towards our station, and it looks like Princess Grace and Mrs. Emmel are coming." ”
Prince Arthur was taken aback and said, "Why are they here, Duran, let's go out and have a look." With that, the two of them hurried out of the tent.
Sure enough, the two flying dragons slowly landed in a wide place in the playground of the station, and from above came down Grace, Mrs. Emmel, Yi Qingfeng, Mu Qianqian, Xiang Chen, and Wu Renliang.
Grace said excitedly: "Brother Arthur, General Duran, look who I brought." ”
Prince Arthur said with a displeased face: "Grace, why are you here, didn't you let you stay in Greenland, what kind of mess are you running around here, do you know how dangerous it is here now?"
Grace said: "Why don't you come here and teach people with a straight face, I'm not a child anymore, do I have to listen to you." These four are the top human warriors I mentioned to you before, they are all amazingly strong, enough to resist thousands of troops, and with their help, we will have great hope for the restoration of the country. ”
Prince Arthur and Duran hurriedly moved their eyes to Yi Qingfeng and the four of them when they heard Grace say this, and saw that they were behaving well, and their bodies naturally exuded a strong aura, which made people reverent. Yi Qingfeng and the four of them bowed and said, "Xiaomin has seen the prince and the general. ”
Arthur also saluted: "Since there is a distinguished guest coming, please also enter the account." As he spoke, he led everyone into the big tent and sat down, and then a sergeant brought a lot of melons, fruits, and refreshments for everyone to eat. Everyone chatted while eating, and in the chat, they briefly said a few words about their recent situation.
Prince Arthur said: "I didn't expect the four of them to have this relationship with the sister-in-law, it's really a coincidence." Since the four heroes are willing to help each other, it can really be said that God helps me, this king originally wanted to wait for the enemy's reinforcements to arrive and abandon the city and flee, but now it seems that it is a redundant move. ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "The prince can rest assured, tomorrow's battle will be able to break the enemy army with the help of us and the other four." ”
Arthur was overjoyed and said: "Okay, this king believes that the four heroes are not boastful, they must have peerless magic skills to dare to be so confident." It's not too early, so it's better for everyone to rest early, and when you have enough spirits, you will fight to the death with the enemy tomorrow. ”
Yi Qingfeng and others: "That's very good." As he spoke, they dispersed.
Early the next morning, Prince Arthur personally led Duran, Grace, Yi Qingfeng, Mu Qianqian, Xiang Chen, Wu Renliang and others, as well as all the soldiers and horses under his tent, to rush out to compete with Xie Li. Sheri didn't expect Arthur to take the initiative to fight, he quickly ordered his troops and horses to meet the battle, and the two armies stood opposite each other, and a big battle was about to break out.
Yi Qingfeng knew the truth that the thief had to capture the king, and he whispered to Mu Qianqian, Xiang Chen, and Wu Renliang beside him: "The enemy doesn't know our strength yet, and as soon as the battle starts, we will rush up and solve the other party's three generals first, as long as these three people are eliminated, the enemy army will be leaderless and will be panicked, and this battle will be decided." Mu Qianqian, Xiang Chen, and Wu Renliang said in a low voice: "Understood." ”
As soon as the soldiers and horses on both sides handed over, the four of them swept out like arrows from the string, and rushed straight towards Xie Li, Xie Sha, and Xie Qi, and the enemy troops who tried to block along the way were easily solved by the four of them with three punches and two kicks. Yi Qingfeng was full of firepower, and the Great Zhou Tian Intermediate True Qi in his body was urged with all his strength, killing the general like a killing god possessing his body, he didn't say a word and slammed out a palm at Xie Li in front of him, only to see a fiery red flame several feet high rushing towards Xie Li, Xie Li didn't dare to slack off, the big knife in his hand slashed out a violent Qi to resist, and a bang came out, Xie Li only felt a shock all over his body, and he retreated a few steps under his feet.
He was shocked, his eyes glared at Yi Qingfeng angrily and said, "Whoever is coming, report it quickly." ”
Yi Qingfeng snorted coldly: "For the sake of your death, let me let you die to understand, Yi Qingfeng is also, suffer death." As he spoke, his palms flew up and down, only to see countless flames emerging rapidly from his body, instantly converging into a monstrous flame ten feet high towards Xie Li under the hood, Xie Li's heart was horrified, his eyes were full of fear and surprise, he shouted angrily, his body quickly retreated, and at the same time, the big knife in his hand slashed out wildly, only to see a series of fierce cold light sources flying out continuously, a series of roaring sounds, and the ground under the feet of the two was torn apart.
Xie Li tried his best to resist, but in vain, Yi Qingfeng's strength was much higher than him, and the raging flames that came from the rage broke through many obstacles and finally fell on him, and the huge energy was released, he only felt that the internal organs in his body seemed to be displaced, and then spit out a mouthful of blood and died.
At the same time, the battles between Mu Qianqian and Xie Sha, Xiang Chen, Wu Renliang and Xie Qi also presented a one-sided situation, and the strength of the two sides was far apart, and the battle seemed to be doomed from the first round. I saw Mu Qianqian's palms flying up and down, and a fiery red flame that was as strong as a flame forced Xie Sha to retreat, although Xie Sha fought hard to resist, but the effect was very limited, under Mu Qianqian's strong attack, he only had the share of being beaten passively. In the blink of an eye, he was injured in many places, and seeing that there was only one way to die if he continued to fight, he roared wildly: "Stinky woman, Lao Tzu fought with you." Saying that, the thick arms waved the big knife in his hand and turned quickly like a windmill, and even the person with the knife set off a violent aura several feet high and swept towards Mu Qianqian, Mu Qianqian did not dare to slack off, and the heaven-level aura in his body urged with all his strength, only to see countless flames falling from the sky, instantly converging into a huge fireball to meet it, a deafening roar came, Xie Sha was hit by the fireball, and he screamed and returned to the west sky.
As soon as Xie Sha's front foot died, Xie Qi's back foot followed in his footsteps, only to see a lightning beam the thickness of a wrist and a small mountain phantom slamming down on Xie Qi's head, blasting him with a knife to pieces. In less than a pillar of incense, Sheri, Xie Sha, and Xie Qi died one after another, and the elven troops who had lost their backbone suddenly became a pot of porridge, while Prince Arthur's troops were greatly demoralized, and they attacked the enemy army desperately.
Prince Arthur won a great victory and led the army back to the camp, and then killed pigs and sheep to reward his soldiers, Yi Qingfeng, Mu Qianqian, Xiang Chen, Wu Renliang The four people made great contributions, and were naturally appreciated by all parties.
