Chapter 12 Cavalry!
Xia Yi returned to the stone room where he lived, just lying on the stone bed, thinking about the fat man, but there were not many people who really helped each other, love was originally something you and I wanted, could he still force the other party to like Dezhu?
Looking at the hanging magic lantern and thinking for a while, footsteps walked in.
Tilted his head, the light was obscured, and a slender figure stopped not far from the bed, and then sat down in Xia Yi's sight, and Zhou Jin's voice sounded.
"Boss, I actually have other things to tell you today. ”
"About the White Wolf Prince, Sun Zhi, or the eunuch Bai Ning?" Xia Yi sat up, leaned his back against the wall, took out his cigarette case, and took out a cigarette and held it to his lips.
Next to him, a lighter was handed over and lit for him.
Zhou Jin watched the sparks burn, emitting green smoke, and nodded: "There is news from the garrison for me to bring to you, Ituni of the northern country has gathered fifty nobles and formed an army to go south, if it breaks through your disciple's resistance, the garrison will soon face their troops." ”
"It can't be broken. Xia Yi took a puff of cigarette, tilted his face, looked at the dome of the stone room, and smiled: "The White Wolf King can come here, the Commuter Bureau has already thought of this." ”
As he spoke, he paused and looked at the woman: "How many people are there in Ituni?"
"I don't know, but your disciple said that there are at least half a hundred thousand. ”
"500,000 ..... is not enough for the grandson to eat. Xia Yi extinguished the cigarette butt and lay back, "On the side of the eunuch gate, there are people with strong martial arts, all of whom have come over, and they will definitely not come to travel, maybe at this time, they have already sneaked to the palace of Ituni." ”
After a few simple conversations, the woman went back to rest, and then also extinguished the magic lamp and gradually fell asleep.
After dawn, the periphery of this cave has been lively, Xu Qiuhua and Wang Suhua, two women who got up early, made a breakfast of the ingredients stored in the cave according to the method of the earth, and the others re-improved the cave and put daily necessities, which seemed to be much more popular.
And the depths of the cave, it is forbidden to enter, it is not a matter of distrust, Jiang Yu has been there once, and he is very scared, the deepest part is the most central location of the volcano, there is lava flowing, and occasionally high-temperature steam erupts from the cracks on the rock wall or the ground, except for Xia Yi, only the limestone dwarves with thick skin and flesh can adapt.
The reason why Xia Yi moved here was that, in addition to the special metals mentioned earlier, he also reshaped several weapons that had resonated with him.
With redstone particles, lava at high temperatures, special metals, ...... So far, although it has been built, it is a pity that it is flawed after all.
Busy until noon, after lunch, Xia Yi still didn't want to miss the war in the south of the northern country, even if he didn't participate, he wanted to see what the cavalry of the White Wolf King looked like, and after telling everyone, he took a few recast weapons, jumped up in everyone's sight, and rushed into the distance.
Meanwhile.
In Timinoa, where the north and south meet, the northern army has launched an offensive in the south.
The rebels who raised the banner of the 'Holy Crow' also did not dare to show weakness, and attacked in the plains and forests, and the fierce fighting lasted for five days at this time.
The green plains, dyed with a huge red spot, and the sticky blood dripped from the tip of the grass to the ground, and the sky was bright, and the arrows with inscriptions staggered through the sky, falling in front of the fierce battle between the two sides.
Crowds clashed, blades, spears stabbed, countless warbands crowded on the front line, explosions of magic rang out all around, and people were lifted into the sky, with a long scream, falling into the crowd, smashing their companions or enemies to the ground.
The corpse stretched out left and right on the staggered front, and the wounded soldier desperately retreated with his torn stomach in his hands, staggering, and was found by his companions and taken to the sacrificial group behind for treatment.
A long army of dragons under the command of reinforcements to the battlefield, the explosion of flames, the nearby woods ignited, encountered the wind, the flames overwhelmingly engulfed the once green woods, the burning soldiers screamed and rushed out, rolling on the ground, between the rotating vision, the reinforced foot soldiers and the cavalry with riding beasts met, and a more fierce battle broke out.
Many, many lives were disconnected at this moment.
In a big battle, not too many troops will be invested in the early stage, but for Artoria, 20,000 people is already all the hole cards in her hand.
On the hill behind the battlefield, the Holy Crow banner was waved in the wind, and the girl with a big sword in her hand was dressed in a military uniform, riding on a long-haired mount with a solemn face, staring at the ever-changing battlefield, and from time to time issuing one or two orders to the rebel soldiers to repair or attack.
Being able to use less than 20,000 people to kill the opponent's 50,000 advance troops to this extent is the result of her persistence in the past two years, and it is also the limit.
The battle of 70,000 people on both sides, put into people's field of vision, is full of dense figures, if an inexperienced commander stands here, it is impossible to distinguish which ones are under his command.
"Artoria, we've done our best, let's get out of here, and if we continue to fight, all the valiant soldiers will be buried here. ”
The adjutant general next to him looked at the fight below in horror, and there was distress in his eyes: "We can't fight anymore, there are still many troops in the northern country, we only have such a few people, in five days..... we have lost 3,000 soldiers, and there are still 400,000 behind them, and we, without reinforcements, can't expect those foreigners to help us!"
"Must ....."
Artoria stood still on the back of her mount and clenched the hilt of her sword: "..... if we fail here and dare not face the soldiers of these nobles, we will not have the courage to continue fighting in the future, and we will soon disappear in front of cowardice, even if those foreigners do not have the courage to come, we will continue to fight." ”
As he spoke, he urged his mount to move forward and drew his sword from the ground, "Have you forgotten that there are many other compatriots who live in the same humble way as us?! ”
The broad blade of the sword was raised above his head, and his blonde hair fluttered in the wind.
A clear voice rang out highly: "Arise, people who do not want to be slaves, fight for freedom, for us..... and even for the next generation-"
In the end, more than 1,000 people guarding the holy flag picked up their swords and shields, and slowly walked down the hillside, at this moment they were pious in their beliefs, looking at the front line that had been broken through, there were soldiers of the noble army who killed them, and walked step by step to form a formation below.
Bang bang bang.
One shield after another was spliced in the hands of these flag guards, connected into a shield wall, holding his breath, his eyes red as he watched closer and closer, flying fast as the original beast riders and noble foot soldiers,
They were slaves, peasants, and even Southern soldiers who joined in after being captured, and when they understood what this army was fighting for, the wall in their hearts would never collapse, even if it was in the face of the incoming soldiers.
"Kill—"
"Kill—"
The hysterical cry tore open in his throat, and he clenched his shield, and at a distance of 100 meters from the onrushing soldiers, there was a different vibration on the ground.
On the high ground, Artoria on the back of her mount looked to the south behind her, and the galloping roar flowed faintly like thunder, which was the unique sound of the iron hoof conquest of this world.
In the bright sunshine, the figure of a war horse rushed out and stood on the grassy knoll in the distance.
The Law of Sighs –
The horse hissed, the cloak was raised in the sun, and the silhouette of the knight, with the spear between them, stood up, and the helmet fluttered in the wind.
The next second.
One, two, four...... The figures of the hundred and thousand cavalry leaped out from around the knight, and the churning iron hooves swirled into the mud like a flood that burst its banks and washed down the hills.
A huge banner painted with a white giant wolf appeared behind the knight, Gongsun Zhi urged the black horse, carrying the Yitian sword, looked over, and at a certain moment, the sword blade was raised, pointing directly at the other party: "Wolf ride, charge-"
Moment.
On the plains on both sides of the hill, more cavalry flocked to it, without any formation or discipline to speak of, and the fury spread over the hill where the girl was, and the more than a thousand soldiers guarding the arch, and the ground trembled under the countless iron hooves that ran wildly.
Artoria, and even everyone in the rebels, stood stunned as they watched as the cavalry they had never seen before, forming the arms of giants, and swept towards the northern army in the distance.
Then, a collision is formed, setting off a huge wave of blood.
