At the southernmost tip of the Taihu Lake region, a large military camp is busy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"General Ding, how is the construction of the pontoon bridge progressing?" Wei Chen walked back and forth in the big tent, and immediately said happily after seeing the person who came.
Before Ding Feng could speak, Yan Ruohao on the side said: "It must not be finished yet, the alliance leader is coming, relying on those bridges, when will our army of tens of thousands of people be able to cross over." ”
"You have demolished so many things in the settlement, and the progress is faster than mine, the alliance leader will not look at you differently because of this, everyone still relies on strength to speak." Wei Chen, who heard this, chuckled and motioned for Ding Feng to continue.
After a slight pause, Ding Feng still had some reservations and said: "Lord, the scout has come to report that our army is heading south, and it is already less than three miles. ”
"So fast? Is this a hasty march. Yan Ruohao was a little surprised.
Wei Chen ignored Yan Ruohao's exclamation and continued to ask, "How many people are in the vanguard, and is it the Xuanjia Cavalry at the beginning?" It is the cavalry unit holding the banner of the Tang character. ”
"Hui Lord, the scale is about 6,000 people, the team did not go very far, and the people who came were all cavalry, the army at the beginning was the Xuanjia cavalry, and the spies of the last general also found that behind the army, there was no infantry army to follow." Ding Feng looked at Wei Chen and said quietly.
"All of them are cavalry, and they didn't bring a single infantry army, this is a new change in the situation, Yan Ruohao, it seems that the alliance leader has a new situation to tell us, and the infantry troops you worked hard to cross the river seem to have been in vain." Wei Chen approached Yan Ruohao with a smile, and then patted Yan Ruohao on the shoulder, "I will explain your contribution to the alliance leader, and this time, you will take over the task of guarding the camp, and my brothers from the Wu army's infantry army will also trouble you to take care of one or two." ”
"What a pleasure." Yan Ruohao pushed Wei Chen's hand away without a trace, and walked outside the big tent, "Let's go, go and meet the alliance leader, your desire to grab territory with the Romans has been disappointed no matter how you say it, my idea is correct." ”
"Didn't I want to help you get back on the field?" Wei Chen said with a smile, and walked out of the big tent closely.
The large battalion with an army of more than 20,000 people stopped all movements at this moment, and all solemnly lined up in front of the camp, a sea of helmets pressed by black, and everyone holding sharp spears neatly erected, as if creating an artificial woodland.
Wei Chen, Yan Ruohao and the others were all dressed up, neatly dressed, and with their own strengthened men and cavalry, they waited at the front of the queue, quietly watching the Xuanjia cavalry that was gradually approaching.
"How's the progress of the pontoon bridge across the river?" Before the person arrived first, Zhao Ruyan's figure appeared on the floating screen of Wei Chen and Yan Ruohao, and the words of communication clearly entered the ears of the two.
"Alliance leader, more than 3,000 people in our department have crossed the river, and the construction goal of the pontoon bridge has been basically completed." Yan Ruohao hurriedly replied.
Zhao Ruyan in the floating screen nodded, and said with a smile: "Very good, I need to continue to rely on your strength next, but this time there is a new change in the situation, I need to cross the river with all the cavalry and march towards the southeast coast, and all the infantry troops will stop crossing the river and stay local." ”
When Wei Chen heard Zhao Ruyan say this, he immediately knew that he had guessed correctly, so he said, "Alliance leader, the time is short, and our department has not yet completed all the pontoon bridge construction, but every pontoon bridge built by our department is wide and sturdy, and there is no problem for the cavalry to run up and ride on horseback." ”
"I'll go and see it myself, tomorrow morning I will gather all your cavalry troops, prepare food reserves for surprise attacks, today's cavalry will rest here for a day, Wei Chen, you can arrange it, tomorrow the whole army must march to the southeast coast."
"Alliance leader, is this a surprise attack on the stronghold of English civilization? There are still remnants of the Sanhan civilization on the southern coast, and if I don't attack them with all my strength at this time, I am afraid that it will give them a chance to accumulate strength, and I am willing to give up all the command of the infantry army and promote Yan Ruohao as the commander of the local infantry army. Wei Chen said with a very sincere expression on his face.
Yan Ruohao was a little angry when he heard this, but his cavalry was not as good as Wei Chen, it was a very realistic existence, and if he couldn't get the opportunity to fight, he would lose the first choice to divide the spoils of war, that was something about the continuation of life, as long as he got a few watches, he could complete the collection conditions of twelve watches. Even if there is an accident when the conditions for accumulating the number of replicants are in the future, one more watch will give you one more chance of survival.
"Oh, yes." Zhao Ruyan glanced at Yan Ruohao, and immediately understood something, and then said, "At this stage, the Sanhan civilization does not need to be completely eliminated for the time being, it only needs to curb the growth of their strength, this time it must be all the seeds of civilization to act together, so, Yan Ruohao, you will also take your cavalry to act with me tomorrow, and all your infantry troops will be temporarily led by Luo Cheng, and he will continue to be responsible for your original task." ”
"Yes, Alliance Master, I will definitely obey the order this time, and the situation last time will definitely not happen again." Yan Ruohao, who was originally prepared to be disappointed, suddenly responded with some excitement.
"By the way, this time I invited Alia of the Rus civilization, she has a thousand cavalry of the Rus Principality, which will be an important combat force, you must properly arrange the accommodation of her and the army under her command, and tell me as soon as possible if there is any situation." Zhao Ruyan's expression became a little solemn and continued: "The enemy this time is the civilization seed group of the Southern Continent, not only the people of the English civilization, their combat effectiveness is different from the Sanhan people, don't underestimate the enemy, after the various departments are properly settled, all the civilization seeds will be gathered in the Chinese army's big tent, Lan Zhongjie from the central Chinese civilization will tell us in detail the watch and the enemy's intelligence." ”
"Yes." Wei Chen and Yan Ruohao responded in unison, and then the communication was cut off.
Looking at the Xuanjia Rider who had arrived in front of him, Wei Chen looked at the person in front of him and arched his hand: "General Luo has worked hard. ”
Although it has not been a long time to come to this world, every civilization seed has the illusion that it seems to have spent a year and a half, and in the struggle between life and death, Wei Chen has learned to use the way of strengthening people, and skillfully greet each other in various ways.
Seeing that the person who came was Luo Cheng, Yan Ruohao also smiled a little rustily: "General Luo." ”
Luo Cheng nodded, responded slightly with his gun, and then rode into the camp with the Xuanjia horse.
Just as Wei Chen was about to talk to the alliance leader who came over later, he suddenly saw something incredible, and looked at a team behind Zhao Ruyan in surprise.
"White Horse Righteousness? Chen Xiaochu, I didn't expect you to really succeed, if you say that, Zhao Yun has become your subordinate. After seeing the white horse Yicong of the white torrent, who actually appeared with a banner with the word "Chen", Wei Chen said to himself a little, this is the first time the two have met after fighting for territory.
