Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Soldiers, treacherous ways.
"The two on patrol, the guards are enjoying the wine today, come to the house."
The two patrol soldiers immediately complained: "They have been in for so long, why are they calling us now?" β
A soldier next to him helped: "Do you think we are easy to bully?" Lao Tzu's gun is not a wax beat, but I heard early in the morning that the garrison chief robbed others of dozens of gold coins, what? A little wine and want to say buy us? There are no doors. β
Ye Xiaofei looked at the soldier from the crack in the door and beeped, and he didn't know what Pami said, so he didn't go here until now.
Pami was also aggrieved in her heart, damn, do you have the ability to complain to your boss? Beep what with me here, but I have to pile up a smile: "Two big brothers, hurry up, otherwise all the wine will be drunk, and none of those drunkards are fuel-efficient lamps." β
Squeak!
The gate was open, and the garrison chief counted the gold coins with his back to the door, and two or three gold coins fell next to him, and the golden light suddenly made the two patrolmen unable to take their eyes off.
The huge city tower is full of drunkards, and one of them even spilled wine on the ground, and waste is a crime! The two patrolmen who watched were heartbroken, they were patrolling outside in the bitter cold, and the people here were drunk one by one.
Pami closed the door softly, only to hear a voice behind her:
Click! Click!
Ye Xiaofei and Cangya didn't know when they appeared behind the two patrolmen, covering each other's mouths with one hand to avoid making a sound, and breaking their heads with the other, the two patrolmen's eyes widened and they didn't bat at each other.
dragged the bodies of the two patrolmen and lowered them to the pillars, while shoving the jar into their hands, which were gradually losing their temperature, and posed as if they were drunk and drunk.
"Next!"
Ye Xiaofei snorted lightly.
"Ahem!" Pammy paused, reopened the door, and went to greet the last five patrolmen.
Unexpectedly smooth, when the last soldier fell, the three tense nerves breathed a heavy sigh of relief, twenty-two corpses, almost filling the entire tower.
There was not a single soldier on the entire city wall.
However, Ye Xiaofei went in from the city tower, and at the stairs, there was a small military camp, which was estimated to be more than 100 soldiers who had changed their guards.
Not daring to alarm the soldiers under the city for the time being, Ye Xiaofei could only ask Pami to keep an eye on him.
On the city tower, a torch swayed from side to side very regularly, a team of knights, horses wrapped in hooves, mouths, and even the knights on their bodies bit the white cloth and did not dare to make a sound.
The whole army, like a ghost, hides its fangs and approaches silently.
Squeak!
The turntable made an overwhelming sound, even if it was very small, but it suddenly made Ye Xiaofei nervous, and when the two knights in the frame hung up, they were already sweating profusely.
"Lord Marquis, your elven bow!"
Ye Xiaofei motioned for him to put it aside, turned around and continued to stir the turntable, and hung the person up with all his might.
Looking at the twelve knights standing behind him, Ye Xiaofei gave up the position of the turntable: "You guys come!" I'll take a look. β
When Ye Xiaofei touched the stairs, Pami was staring intently at the small military camp under the city: "How is it?" β
"Who?"
"Me! Ye Xiaofei"
Ye Xiaofei pressed Pami, and both of them broke out in a cold sweat, and lowered their voices: "How do you open the door?" β
Pami pointed to two ten-meter super large winches under the city: "The city gate is divided into an inner gate and an outer gate, and the outside are two large iron gates eight meters high and one meter thick, which are pushed outward. The inner gate, on the other hand, is a large steel gate that rises through these two winchs. β
"Can you open it quietly?"
"No, the sound of a big winch stirring will definitely alarm the small barracks ten meters away. So, Boss, why don't we just go in? β
Cangya walked over and lowered his voice very low, afraid of disturbing something: "Boss, thirty-six people have been pulled up, what should I do next?" β
"Wait, they still have ten minutes to change guards and pull a few more people up." Ye Xiaofei thought about it, and suddenly remembered something, so he spread out a defense map on the city wall, a defense map of Lauren City that he had dreamed of.
It is very clear that in the south of the city, a whole area is hoarded with food, while the west of the city is the military camp, and the east of the city is the material reserve area. The original inhabitants of the entire city of Lauren, nearly 300,000, were all driven out.
"Pami! As soon as you bring five hundred knights and bring enough oil, gunpowder, and exploding magic crystals into the city, you will immediately go south along the central street into the grain area, and burn all the grain in the entire southern area to me.
"Cangfang! You led 500 knights, also with plenty of oil, gunpowder, and blasting crystals, to get all their supplies, and let their army of 200,000 freeze to death this winter. β
"Bond, Nock!" Ye Xiaofei beckoned and asked the two to come over: "You two, lead two hundred knights to the east of the city, give me their barracks, and burn this group of bachelors." β
"Yes! Lord Marquis. β
"That's it!" Ye Xiaofei glanced at the fifty or sixty knights behind him, "Let's go!" We went into the small barracks under the city, and we could be quiet without making a sound, and remember to kill all the people, and not leave them alive. β
Whoosh!
Poof!
The small barracks were not fenced, so they were built on flat ground with their heads covered, except for the two soldiers on duty outside the barracks gate, and the other soldiers were still sleeping with their heads covered.
With an arrow sealing, the two sleepy soldiers widened their eyes in disbelief and wanted to make a warning sound, but all the blood that came out of their mouths was that they couldn't say a word.
Bond and Cangya trotted all the way, one lunged forward, catching an arrow to seal the marquis, and the two who were crumbling.
In all directions, the knights trotted into the small barracks, one by one silent.
Yes! Helpββββββ
Slight wails and shouts rang out in the small barracks, but soon everything was calm again. As if nothing had happened.
Squeak squeak!
Thirty knights, struggling to push the ten-meter winch, the waist-thick huge magic steel cable made an overwhelmed sound.
The steel floodgates are rising little by little,
The two big winches let out a final roar: Click!
The floodgates were completely raised.
Ten more knights came down from the walls. Together, a total of more than seventy knights suppressed their excitement and trotted to open the gate.
Squeak! Squeak!
The eight-meter-high, one-meter-thick super iron gate slowly opened, like the mouth of a giant beast, devouring the cavalry that poured in.
"Victory!" Ye Xiaofei bowed deeply to Pami, and shouted to the first cavalry team that left: "This battle!" Win! β
As soon as Pami's cavalry went, Cangfang gathered the knights who entered the city: "Lord Marquis! This battle! It will be glorious! β
Ye Xiaofei bowed his hand deeply: "This battle!" Win! β
Seeing Cangya leave, a thousand cavalry poured into Lauren.
"Nock! Bond! β
Ye Xiaofei let out a low shout, the two of them led two hundred cavalry and silently embarked on the journey, their group was the smallest in number and the most dangerous. With 200 men to resist the army of nearly 10,000, once surrounded, there is no doubt about death.
"Lord Marquis! This battle is a lifelong honor. I am willing to go to the soup and fight the fire, and I will never give up! β
"Good!" Ye Xiaofei bowed deeply: "This battle!" Win! β
Seeing the three cavalry leave, Ye Xiaofei returned to the city tower.
At this time, there were only a hundred knights left, but what they shouldered was to ensure that the only way to retreat. The weight of the task and the small number of people show Ye Xiaofei's determination to win, and he has gambled on the determination of all the soldiers' lives.
He said, "This battle! Win!
But he didn't say: victory! Triumph!
At least, Pami and Cangya can understand that in this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, their return is very slim.
but
Ye Xiaofei did not give up.
"Someone! Give the muzzle of the magic crystal cannon to Lao Tzu and aim it at the central street in the city! β
