Chapter 45: The Battle to the Death (I)
Through the hills, over the streams, over the yellowed meadows...... Chen Feng and his party fled frantically in the wasteland. Until they saw the familiar village.
In the evening.
Chen Feng and the others were finally accepted into the lower village.
This is the second village on the border of Rogue Town.
Walking into the gate of the village, Luo San couldn't bear it anymore, and fell to the ground, greedily breathing in the air. The tired body didn't want to move again.
Fortunately, they are safe now, and looking at the familiar people around them, they can finally sleep peacefully.
Early the next morning.
Chen Feng woke up from his sleep.
I have forgotten which village girl slept next to me last night, and I only feel sore. It could be a day of fighting, it could be last night's hard work, or it could be that the bed board was too hard.
Chen Feng gathered 400 guards in the lower village. Among them, the fourth squadron was a hundred people, and the squadron leader was Lieutenant Cady. The fifth squadron of a hundred people, the squadron leader Lieutenant Vincent. The sixth squadron was one hundred people, and the squadron leader was Second Lieutenant Gerdor. The hunter team was fifty people, and the squadron leader was Captain Chen Ping. There are fifty people in the lower village.
The rest of the old, weak, sick and disabled were not counted by Chen Feng in the guards.
Chen Feng directly told Chen Ping, the temporary garrison general of the lower village, that the upper village was almost completely wiped out, and now only less than 80 wounded people were brought back.
In addition, it only takes a day for the noble army to find the location of the lower village, and then it will face the fiercest battle.
Once the aristocratic army had crossed the lower village, there were no more fortifications to prevent the nobles from stepping into the heart of Rogue Town.
Thinking that ten miles into the village would be a quarter of wheat fields to be cultivated, Chen Feng told the guards in front of him, "If we are lucky enough to survive, our children and grandchildren will be proud of us, because because of our efforts, they have laid a field of their own." ”
Chen Feng looked at the onlookers and asked the young man beside him, "Your family, they are waiting for you, wasn't the purpose of you joining the security group in the first place to be able to get a tax-free wheat field?" Can you get a house given by the security team to marry a wife and have children? Now your chance has come, right in front of you, maybe this evening, maybe tomorrow morning, look at the next enemy's head, take credit once, if you kill ten enemy soldiers, it's an honor for you to be a second lieutenant. ”
Everyone knows very well what the second lieutenant represents, and Chen Feng has explained a lot, that is, there is meat to eat and a farm house.
"Oh!! Long live the security corps! ”
The boys muttered excitedly, as if the enemy's head was already in their own hands.
Chen Feng looked at the wounded next to him, those soldiers who had retreated from the upper village along with the defeat. "Look at them? They all have more or less credit for it, but the scene was too chaotic at the time, but it doesn't affect my new appointment to them, and if we can return to Rogue after this battle, you will at least have the rank of sergeant. I hope that you will show me your enthusiasm and loyalty in the next selection of the Guards. ”
Chen Feng not only threw out the rank of sergeant and the position of the personal guard, but also made those soldiers who had already languished fight again, screaming and ready to enter the next battle.
The simple reprimand made the whole village in a state of high spirits.
Then Chen Feng made two more important decisions.
The first is to appoint Da Tiejian as the new leader of the Guards squadron, and his rank has also been promoted from warrant officer to second lieutenant, temporarily leading the Guards with less than 20 people under him. Although judging from the few battles of the Great Iron Sword, you can get a higher rank, but if you cross too many ranks when you are in danger, everyone else will be red-eyed.
The second is to merge the young men of the lower village and the retired soldiers of the upper village who have recovered their combat capability into the third squadron, led by Luo San.
The third squadron, which was originally ranked in the top three in strength, made up a full formation at this time, but its combat ability made people unbearable to look at directly, and a hundred soldiers could not pull out a fully equipped squad.
On this day, Chen Feng took out a lot of food stored in the lower village to reward the soldiers of the security regiment in front of him, maybe after today, they will not have the opportunity to enjoy this leisure time, maybe they will never see the sunset tomorrow.
The time of the day passed quickly, and the lower village was surrounded like a tietong, and it was very inconvenient to enter and exit every time, and Chen Feng didn't bother to send someone out to investigate. At this time, no amount of intelligence is the same, it is a melee.
In the evening, Chen Feng stood on the highest hill in the village. Looking at the aristocratic army that began to appear in the distance, "It's finally here." ”
After a night of nervousness, the village was fully armed and ready for battle when the sun rose.
With the experience of the previous battles, the aristocratic army this time seems to have been prepared to deal with Chen Feng's indiscriminate tricks. All sorts of tools were brought up, and they began to remove the barricades outside the village, and even a wagon laden with sand was pulled up.
Chen Feng looked at Lord Deli in the distance, and he seemed to be smiling.
"It seems that this old boy has learned a lot." Chen Feng felt that he should have taught this stubborn old nobleman what real fighting was.
A small Macedonian formation unfolded in front of Chen Feng's eyes, which the old Lord Edley had learned from Chen Feng.
It's more appropriate to learn than to innovate.
Lord Deli spent an extra day finding a nice woods around, cutting down wood for a day, and finally erected two improvised carts. Twenty soldiers were hidden in the heavy planks on three sides of the rushing cart, and they relied on the two axles in the middle to pull the wheels and kill the village.
From time to time, a soldier poked his head out from behind the car and gave a cold arrow to the group of soldiers of the security regiment who were in a daze.
Maybe some people have bad lives, and such a rough archery can kill him.
Only a scream was heard, followed by a thick voice, and Chen Feng knew that another soldier had died.
After coming to this world for more than half a year, Chen Feng finally met someone as shameless as himself.
Chen Feng looked at the aristocratic army that had already rushed to the gate of the village, and reluctantly let Chen Ping carry out the military order.
I saw that the team guarding the gate of the 4th Squadron had an extra ceramic jar in their hands, and the jar shattered after hitting the rushing vehicle, and the viscous liquid inside was left on the ground along the wooden board on the side of the rushing vehicle, seeping into the dry grass on the ground.
When the car came out of the ten or so more, Chen Feng nodded at Chen Ping.
Chen Ping, who received the order, shot the arrow in his hand, and the arrow with the flame shot at the place where the car had just passed by, and then a flame burned from the ground.
The soldiers in the rush were right at the front of the fire.
Leave the rush behind? It's too high, and I still don't go out at all.
Running back? Such a big fire, you can't rush through.
Keep going? The entire inside of the car was full of smoke, and I couldn't find my way out of the way.
