"Brother Li, do we have to cooperate with the other Dream Walker Squads?"

Huang Hao frowned, most of the dreamwalkers were serious offenders, and he knew very well what virtue was in his bones, even if he joined forces with his own dreamwalkers, it was impossible to guarantee that he would not be stabbed in the back.

Li Mengnan naturally understood Huang Hao's scruples, in fact, he didn't trust the so-called national dream walkers, but he still patiently explained: "Everyone has seen the information we bought in the mercenary union, if you want to attack Dracula's Castle, you must pass through the cursed land, and there are a large number of monsters gathered in the cursed land, although the strength of the individual is not high, but the number is amazing. If we only use the six members of our current team to act, I am afraid that we will not be able to break through even half the distance of the Cursed Land, and we will be completely exhausted. ”

"We're not going it alone this time, are we? Isn't there also a native crusade, and this notice also mentions that the Holy See and the kingdom will also send corresponding regular troops. Guo Yimin was puzzled.

"Although the regular army is strong, it cannot be expected at all, and even our advance route must avoid the regular army's advance line on a certain distance."

"Why?"

This time, Guo Yimin, Huang Hao, Lao Man, and Dongzi asked at the same time, obviously they couldn't figure out why they didn't need such ready-made help as the regular army, but they had to risk the danger to open up the wasteland alone.

"Because the goals of the regular army are too big."

Everyone was stunned, especially the three young people Guo Yimin, Huang Hao, and Dongzi.

Haven't seen the war of the Cold Weapon Age, haven't played a real-time strategy game? How could the other side still play all-round defense in a scattered manner, and they would inevitably concentrate superior forces to block the attack, and they would also have to regain the initiative by counterpressing.

This also means that those who follow the regular army and try to pick up the leaks may take advantage of the situation in the first half of the day to pick up some cheapness, but once Dracula's side comes to his senses, he will inevitably face a stronger backlash, and it is very likely that there will be a legendary wave of monsters.

"Not only that, but I suspect that this summoning order itself is looking for cheap cannon fodder for this crusade."

Padio spoke out again.

Guo Yimin and the others were suddenly shocked, and said: "This is a bit of a conspiracy theory, right?" ”

"No, it's very likely."

Li Mengnan's fingers tapped the summoning order on the table, and the yellowish paper made a rhythmic slight crisp sound.

Huaxia is the ancestor of cold weapon warfare, and it can even be said that the history of China is a history of war, there are so many historical battles for reference, even people who don't understand military affairs can be mixed into half an expert under the influence of their ears and eyes.

Although the individual combat effectiveness of the mercenaries is slightly stronger than that of the regular army, it is indeed far inferior to the regular army in terms of overall combat effectiveness.

What is the role of the ragtag army? Those who are familiar with history know that in addition to being used to strengthen the façade before the war, the biggest role of the miscellaneous army is to use it as cannon fodder when attacking or retreating, so as to reduce the damage of the regular army.

Judging from the historical materials of this world collected so far, before the emergence of Dracula's forces, the three countries around the Cursed Land had been attacking each other for nearly a hundred years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was a feud.

But to say that this alliance has become monolithic because of this, it can only be said that Sao Nian is too naïve.

In order to ensure that after eliminating Dracula's forces, their own countries will not be swallowed up by their neighbors, and the three countries will definitely not spare no effort to kill each other in the crusade, and may even dig holes and stumble with each other, which may be why the aboriginal forces of this world have been able to completely eliminate each other for decades.

still responds to the old saying, "If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates", no matter how strong your strength is, you can't stand a group of people playing with internal friction.

But no matter whether the three countries are sincere in crusading against each other or fighting each other, this is not important to Li Mengnan and the others, their ultimate goal is just to take advantage of the situation to attack Dracula's Castle.

I have to say that their luck as a group of dreamwalkers is indeed good, as soon as they entered the world of legends, they caught up with the large-scale crusade of the local forces against Dracula, if not, if they want to break into Dracula's castle by themselves, although it may not be impossible, but the price paid may be unimaginable.

With the backward means of communication and poor traffic conditions of the era, it often took months to organize such a large-scale crusade by means of a summoning order.

Due to the abundance of time, Li Mengnan did not rush to the nearest of the three registration points, the royal city of Grana, but paid a few mercenaries who had been hunting monsters in the Cursed Land for a long time, taught them combat experience, and made up for the weakest martial arts courses for the six members of the team.

Of course, the martial arts mentioned here are not fighting skills, just the most common weapon moves, and the legendary martial arts cheats, fighting skills in this world are also very few people will master the secret of the secret, only the royal family, nobles, and some of the heirloom warrior families will have the inheritance of fighting skills.

Li Mengnan once inadvertently complained that this setting is very similar to the rhythm of some foreign continent magic martial arts Xiaobaiwen in China, and he didn't want to really get a jaw-dropping answer from padio, a pseudo-girl who seems to be a know-it-all.

"It can only be said that the population of Huaxia is too much, equivalent to the consciousness of one-fifth of the total population of the earth, which is enough to interfere with the consciousness of different Cheng Dù in each legendary place in the Gaia world."

I am mighty in China, and millions of online articles are mighty......

The so-called martial arts in this world can only be regarded as the use of some weapons, and then there are some personal combat experiences, which are not as systematic as the martial arts of Huaxia, and have even risen to the spiritual realm of "Dao".

The only limit to learning this simple and pure killing technique is one's physique, but this is not a problem at all for dreamwalkers who have broken through the limits of one's physical body.

In just ten days of assault training, everyone has mastered the skills of using most of the commonly used weapons in this world, with their own physique that can be called cheating in this world, Guo Yimin and others can already fight with the mercenary old bird in a one-on-one situation, padio, the strange pseudo-girl in the case of holding heavy weapons, is even more outrageous 1v5 record.

Li Mengnan's melee ability has also increased explosively in this training, in contrast, due to the lack of power, the throwing knife, which was once the main means of attack, has become a chicken rib.

According to the veteran mercenaries who taught them martial arts, unless Li Mengnan can obtain a set of enchanted throwing knives with additional attack effects, or learn some kind of combat technique specifically designed for throwing weapons, this throwing knife skill can only be used for harassment and containment.

In addition, according to the characteristics shown by Li Mengnan and the others in the training, this senior mercenary also taught them an additional set of small battle formations, which can cover and cooperate with each other through guò, and exert almost double combat effectiveness.

……

Nearly half a month passed in a flash, and the departure of Li Mengnan and others was imminent, and the blacksmith shop sent people to send several people with tailor-made weapons and equipment.

The choice of weapons is determined by the position of the battle formation.

The core of the battle formation is the pseudo-lady of Padio, the strange power of madness, coupled with the tower shield and war hammer of the heavier and larger models, whether it is offensive or defensive, it can make the entire team take the initiative in the battle.

If it weren't for the refusal to focus on armor, this strange puppet girl would definitely be an insoluble battle fortress on the battlefield.

Guo Yimin, who is wide and fat, has been shouting that he wants to be an MT, but in addition to his qualified weight, the others are completely unreliable, and the technical content of the second knife flow is too high, and this product does not have the talent to comprehend the passive attribute of "left and right fighting", and in the end he can only choose an ordinary short-handled battle axe as a weapon, and his left arm is additionally equipped with a small round shield of steel, and if necessary, he can also cover the members of the team that Padio can't take care of, which can be regarded as a disguised realization of his MT dream.

Huang Hao's talent in melee combat is average, and he is only equipped with a short knife that does not affect his actions for self-defense, and the real main battle weapon is a compound bow designed and supervised by him.

Although this hand-made composite bow is not as fine as a real-world industrial product, it has achieved almost the same effect with the blessing of the world's unique alchemy and monster materials.

It can easily penetrate leather armor within 150 meters, and with a special three-edged armor-piercing arrow, it can even break through the defenses of ordinary plate armor within 30 meters.

Of course, such incredible power can also cost a lot of money, and it can be said that it is the most expensive of all custom weapons.

Dongzi and Lao Man didn't have any weapons that they were particularly good at, and considering the lack of long-range attacks in the entire battle array, they were each equipped with a spear.

The whole body of the gun is about two meters three long, the special triangular pyramid tip not only ensures that it will not be broken lightly, but also can cause a rather strict bloodletting effect, the connection position between the tip and the hardwood barrel is only about 30 centimeters with sharp teeth steel column, if necessary, it can be used as a blunt weapon such as a mace.

If it were for humans, this strange-looking spear was obviously a bit too powerful, and it could be said to be extremely inhumane, considering that the main opponent this time was a monster that was more difficult to deal with than humans, such a crazy design was directly ignored by everyone.

Li Mengnan's position in the battle formation is that of a raider, to put it simply, he is a free man who has no fixed position, and goes there to put out fires wherever there is danger.

Moreover, when the battle formation is stable, it is also responsible for the task of being free from the battle formation and waiting for an opportunity to threaten the enemy in another direction and reduce the pressure on the battle array.

With his combat style, it is indeed very suitable for such a flexible position.

However, the biggest regret is that Li Mengnan has never found the weapon he is most comfortable with, and almost all the mainstream weapons in this world have been tried by him, but no matter what it is, it will always feel like it is a little worse in his hands, but even he himself can't tell where the difference is.

In desperation, he could only use an ordinary one-handed long sword to deal with it first, after all, this is the weapon chosen by more than eighty percent of the martial artists in this world, and it is characterized by moderation, with no obvious advantages, but also no obvious shortcomings.

In addition to weapons, things such as tent dry food must also be brought, and this crusade will go deep into the interior of the Cursed Lands, and even if it advances, it will take at least half a month to reach Dracula's Castle, and there is no place to stay in the barren mountains and mountains halfway.

The road to Wangcheng was not smooth, due to the poor harvest of the land year after year, a large number of peasants who could not pay taxes had to find another livelihood, some of the family's own weapons became mercenaries for money, and more poor people who had nothing had to go up the mountains and grass to survive.

In just three days, Li Mengnan and the others encountered at least five groups of bandits robbing the road, and the largest group had nearly 100 people.

However, the only advantage of these bandits is only that there are many people, they don't even have a decent weapon, they can't pose any threat to Li Mengnan and the others who are almost armed to the teeth, often a charge, after killing the most capable of fighting a few young people, the other bandits will scatter in a hurry, and the whole battle often lasts less than a minute, like a ridiculous farce.

At this time, Li Mengnan would order a pursuit until the thieves' nest was destroyed.

This kind of poor bandit who doesn't even have decent weapons naturally has nothing to fish, and he just does this to make Guo Yimin and the others adapt to the battle...... To be precise, it is to adapt to killing.

The last thing people dare to kill is people, as long as they cross this psychological barrier, everything in the world will not dare to kill.

A soldier who has never seen blood, no matter how elite he is, is not a good soldier, Li Mengnan doesn't want to go to the battlefield with a team of rookies who will collapse and pee their pants at any time.

He proved to be right in doing so.

After killing people with their own hands for the first time, Guo Yimin and the others vomited directly on the battlefield where they knelt on the corpses and covered the field, their hands trembled like chaff, and they could no longer grasp their respective weapons, but fortunately, the remaining bandits had been frightened and did not dare to turn around at all, otherwise a counter-charge would likely catch them off guard.

However, padio, the pseudo-mother, is still mentally strong and terrifying, and the sixty-pound war hammer has smashed people into meat patties, and she can calmly set up a fire next to her to roast pork legs to eat, which made Guo Yimin and the others vomit on the ground again.

Li Mengnan also became more and more curious about Padio.

Of course, there are still 3,000 nails in the broken ship, these bandits can pull up such a large team, it is impossible to say that there is no inventory at all, although there is no superb equipment or fighting skills in the nest, but there are still some ordinary goods, and the pockets of Li Mengnan and others who have been deflated due to customized equipment are also full again.

It was only at this time that Li Mengnan felt a little happy and vengeful in the sword world, but unfortunately this world is not the background of oriental martial arts, and the western fantasy scenery full of oil paintings will always make him feel like he is inexplicably jumping into the play.
