Chapter 504: The Great Rear Fortress Pass of the Kingdom of Häagen-Dazs
Because the lid of the kettle is airtight, the water boils quickly, making a boiling sound of "gurgling".
The kettle was connected to a rope, and Meng De picked up the rope with a branch, put the kettle aside, used his soul power to protect his hand from being burned, and then twisted the lid of the kettle.
When the lid of the kettle opened, a large cloud of hot water vapor rose upward, and the hot white vapor was clearly visible even in summer.
Meng De took out another special small basin from the soul guide.
This small pot is divided into two layers, the lower layer is a pot, and the upper layer is an iron frame with circular holes.
Meng De poured boiling water into the bottom of the pot through the hole, and then kneaded a small ball of viscous flour with his hands and placed it on the iron armor with the hole.
He pinched several more dough dough, and the flour dough in the original small basin was basically gone, so he quickly put the pot on the fire, and at the same time covered the lid and closed it.
The water in the pot was originally boiled once, and with a special lid sealed, the inside of the pot soon boiled.
Because of the high temperature and closed heating, there is a continuous gurgling sound in the pot, and the pot is also a little beating.
After a long while, Meng De estimated that it was almost over, took off the pot, and opened the lid.
As the lid of the pot opened, a large cloud of hot white steam came out, and only touched it slightly, and Meng De's hands were a little hot and painful.
He craned his head slightly to look into the pot.
In the pot, the previous flour dough has been steamed into a round white steamed bun at this time, and the middle of the steamed bun is bulging, and the shape is very round, which is quite beautiful.
This is due to fermentation, and during the fermentation and steaming process, the flour naturally changes shape and becomes slightly round balls.
Meng De took out a steamed bun with his left hand and took a bite.
Because of the addition of cane sugar and butter, the steamed buns are very sweet, not tasteless at all.
Meng De was very satisfied with what he ate, and took out a small yellow square from his soul guide.
This is the cheese produced by the Wuhun Empire, the Wuhun Empire raises many cattle, sheep and horses, and the dairy industry is very developed.
However, after several days of rapid marching over long distances, Mende and his 50,000 hussars had eaten almost all the cheese they had brought with them, and if they could not capture the Häagen-Dazs Pass, they would have to milk the mare.
In the camp, Meng De ate ate a few bites of steamed buns and a piece of cheese, and it took a while to finish eating.
After dinner, he went to the river to clean the pots and pans, drank some boiled water, and then sat down cross-legged in the camp and meditated and cultivated.
The night is getting deeper, the sky is slowly getting darker, and there is occasionally a little wind in the air, which brings a little coolness.
The night was not very good, with insects chirping and birds chirping, and buzzing mosquitoes fluttering.
There was an occasional rustling sound in the grass, and I didn't know if it was an earthworm or a snake.
Sometimes the call of the aunt melon can be heard from the riverbank, and most of them are made by field chickens or frogs, which make a song at night.
There were black clouds drifting in the sky, the moon and the stars were obscured, and only the light on the edge reminded everyone that there was still a moon in the sky.
Little by little, the night passed, and gradually, the time passed to two or three o'clock in the morning.
Meng De woke up from his state of meditation and cultivation, he stood up and clapped his hands.
"Bang Bang!"
One by one, the light cavalry of the Wuhun Empire woke up from their sleep, and they began to rest directly after eating in the evening, and at this time they had slept for more than seven hours, and they had almost rested.
Although the soldiers were not full of energy, they were also relieved of fatigue and no longer sleepy.
Meng De gathered the team, because he was going to sneak attack in the middle of the night, he did not let many soldiers light torches, but found a soul master of the bat martial soul and asked him to lead the team towards the Häagen-Dazs Pass.
Bat Spirit has the ability to emit ultrasonic waves to detect objects and roads, and even at night, it can clearly see the road conditions and avoid falling in the dark.
After the team was assembled, the Bat Martial Soul Master was in front, and many soldiers rode behind, and everyone did not run, because that would make the horses' iron hooves roar and wake up the enemy troops stationed in the fortress.
The crowd moved at a steady pace, and after some time, they walked a little and a half kilometers of road to the foot of the walls of the Häagen-Dazs Pass fortress.
Mende rode to the front of the procession and looked at the city walls.
There were no torches above the walls, not a single figure, only the slight snoring of soldiers.
The cool evening breeze blew through the city walls, and the flag of the Star Luo Empire fluttered slightly on it, and the atmosphere was very soothing and relaxing.
Meng De raised his eyebrows.
So lax in defense?
In fact, the Häagen-Dazs Pass Fortress was more than 700 miles away from the front line of Longxing City, and even if Tang San and the others wanted to break their heads, they couldn't imagine that the Martial Spirit Empire would carry out a sneak attack from such a long distance.
What Tang San thought was that the Martial Spirit Empire might send its elite to the rear of the Star Luo army for dozens or hundreds of miles to sneak attack the grain and grass.
But she didn't expect that Qian Nawei's gaze was far more than that, and she directly saw the rear of the Star Luo Empire!
Therefore, the garrison of the Häagen-Dazs Pass fortress is extremely lax, not to mention the large-scale city defense army, and all the soldiers in the city add up, there are no more than thirty!
Moreover, more than half of them are still recruits!
No one would do such a vigil at night, and the soldiers standing guard on the city walls entered the small room on duty early and lay down to sleep.
All the soldiers stationed at the Häagen-Dazs Pass had a hundred hearts in their hearts about the Häagen-Dazs Pass Fortress, and no one would have thought that the Häagen-Dazs Pass would be attacked. new world
Under the city walls, Meng De beckoned.
Several tall and sturdy hussars stepped forward, each holding a circle of hooked ropes in their hands.
Many people thought that the hussars were horse archers, so they had to be slightly thinner and lighter in weight than the heavy cavalry.
But in fact, this is not the case, at least not after Qian Fei'er reformed the light cavalry of the Wuhun Empire.
As the main force of the cavalry unit, the light cavalry is not a simple attack, but a powerful mobile unit that attacks and shoots the enemy!
Moreover, to open a strong recurve compound bow, a thin soldier cannot do it at all, and his physique must be stronger, otherwise he will not even be qualified to enter the hussar unit!
Therefore, every light cavalry of the Martial Spirit Empire is more than one meter eight tall, weighs at least seventy-five kilograms, and has bulging muscles.
It is the elite of the Wuhun Empire!
Under the city wall, several soldiers threw out the hook rope in their hands, and the hook rope flew up diagonally for more than ten meters, accurately landing on the nine-meter-high wall of the Häagen-Dazs Pass.
A few soldiers tugged a little harder, making sure that the hook was firmly in place and would not break.
These hooks and cables are quite thick, and the hemp rope is matched, with a diameter of more than one inch, and it will not break even if it is hung with a weight of more than 200 catties.
As for the hooks at the top of the hook cable, they are all made of steel and can also withstand a certain amount of gravity.
Meng De dismounted at this time, walked to a hook in person, and put his hands on the hook.
He pushed a little harder and began to climb.
At the same time, on the left and right sides of Meng De, several strong soldiers also began to climb, and in the back, several soldiers held recurve compound bows in their left hands, and took heavy arrows 90 centimeters long and weighing nearly 2 taels from their backs with their right hands.
They stretched out their bows and arrows, making the bowstrings tighten.
In a short time, Meng De and a few soldiers had already reached the city wall.
Several soldiers next to him took off the cavalry knife that is standard in the Wuhun Empire from their waists, this kind of cavalry knife is one meter long, with some curved arcs in the middle, which is more in line with the characteristics of human body mechanics, and the force is stronger when chopping, and it can cut off the enemy's bones more easily.
The hilt is 25 centimeters long, so that the soldier can choose to hold the knife in both hands, and even when dismounting, it can exert greater power.
As for Meng De, he took out a dagger more than thirty centimeters long from the soul guide and held it in his hand.
On the city wall, Meng De's empty left hand moved, pointing to the left and right sides of the city wall, signaling several people to disperse.
Several of the soldiers nodded, and then they separated, and Meng De also went to one of them.
Walking through an empty section of the city wall, Meng De came to a stone chamber that resembled a watchtower on the edge of the city wall.
There was a door in the stone room, which had already been closed, and Meng De pushed it open with a little force.
Is there a deadbolt?
Meng De frowned slightly.
However, this did not bother him.
In front of the door, Mende unleashed his Gaborga Curse Spear Spirit.
"Boom!"
The powerful soul power fluctuations spread, blowing off a large cloud of dust on the ground, and rolling up a gust of wind, and the soldiers behind the wind had to squint their eyes, and their cheeks were also a little painful by the strong wind.
On Meng De's body, seven soul rings, two yellow, two purple and three black, rose up, releasing dazzling light in the dark night.
Of course, the colors of these soul rings were all disguised by Meng De, and he was good friends with the Hell Three-Headed Dog Clan, and his true strength was far from this.
At this time, the Gaborga curse magic spear was more than six meters long, its whole body was scarlet, and its body was covered with intricate ancient patterns, releasing a bloodthirsty and cruel aura.
A yin wind blew strangely, and the bodies of the soldiers behind them were cold, and they shuddered back.
Meng De didn't care about them, he directly held the Gaborga Curse Spear Martial Spirit, used the tip of the spear to reach into the crack of the door, and aimed at the deadbolt to scratch it.
"Whew!"
A scarlet glow streaked across the door.
Meng De put away the martial spirit, held the doorknob with his left hand, carefully pushed it open, and grabbed the dagger tightly with his right hand, and his footsteps were lifted along with a heart.
Inside the door, a Star Luo Empire soldier was lying on a bamboo stand, his hands clasped to his chest, snoring.
With the sound of snoring, the Star Luo Empire soldier's chest rose and fell rhythmically, and he was obviously asleep.
Meng De came to him, covered his mouth with his left hand, and held a dagger in his right hand, and stabbed it down!
"Poof!"
The Star Luo Empire soldier's chest was bleeding, his eyes widened suddenly, and he wanted to speak but couldn't.
After a second, his pupils began to dilate, and he lost his breath.
Assassinating the soldier of the Star Luo Empire, Meng De carefully followed the stairs of the watchtower and began to ......
After that, Meng De and a few soldiers eliminated several Star Luo Empire defenders on this city wall, and several people came to the city gate and opened the city gate.
