Chapter 291: So Sleepy, So Sleepy
The Cadore Warband, the legion of the Duchy of Blackstone once stationed in the border fortress of Constantinople, has a full strength of about 3,000 people, in fact, it has not been full for hundreds of years.
Because in the west of Constantinople, north of the Black Forest, the plain that was supposed to be on the edge of the Death Marsh, the only thing the fortress of Constantinople had to defend against was the gloomy Black Forest until a young kingdom called the Third Reich of Fell appeared.
It's a pity that since a certain bear-child lich moved in in the Black Forest hundreds of years ago, the fortress function of Constantinople has become less and less, although every few years, Grand Duke Taketori, who knows a little truth about the world, will allocate a special amount of money to strengthen the fortress of Constantinople.
But as far as actual combat is concerned, even if the walls of Constantinople are getting higher and higher, and the resistance field is getting stronger and stronger, the Cadore warbands stationed here have not experienced any real battles.
If it weren't for the fact that this wargroup later moved to Yorktown, a satellite fortress of the fortress of Constantinople, and took up a lucrative job as a courier, then the Cadore Wargroup would have been worth a guard of honor.
Under such historical background conditions, the combat effectiveness of the Cadore War Group can be imagined, and the leader of the Cadore War Regiment, the veteran general Lexington, who has no achievements or defeats in his life, can also be imagined.
"If the army in the city on the other side is really led by a general who is good at raiding operations, as the old general said, I wonder if this group of soldiers can still stand alive?"
Robert just walked around the barracks for half a circle, and then whispered to Wang Rui.
"You mean to say? ...... "Wang Rui couldn't tell at first glance how effective these brightly armored soldiers were, like Robert. Some wondered why Robert would say that.
"Obviously, the combat effectiveness of this army says that they are logistics baggage troops, and they are all lifting them, but they are more like honor guards or something." When Robert said this, he still had a little face. just whispered to Wang Rui alone.
"Then why did the troops in the opposite city rush out and break through this group of honor guards?" Wang Rui expressed his curiosity.
"I find it strange too, but it's easy to explain." Robert glanced at Constantinople, built in the distance at the foot of a stone hill and similar to the shape of the Valley of the Holy Helmet in a classic novel, and said: "
"It's very likely that the goal of the army on the other side is not to occupy that city, nor is it an army that needs any other territory, they obviously have a purpose to stay in that city, and the army around us now is still vigorously surrounding that city, which only means that the other side does not take this army seriously at all."
“…… I see. It's a feeling that is completely irrefutable. Under Robert's reminder, Wang Rui, who was a little stunned, nodded and stuffed something into his mouth, and continued while chewing: "But then again, although I can't see the combat effectiveness of this Cadore Clan, the treatment of this Cadore Regiment is still very good." ”
"Treatment?" I don't know how Wang Rui's brain circuits are convulsed, and when it comes to this, Robert asked with a strange look in his eyes.
"Like this. Their rations look cute, taste good, and are hungry. Wang Rui took out a piece of dim sum composed of pink, white and green three-layer cakes from his pocket and said.
“…… Did you just take it from their cooks? Robert asked in a tone that was defeated by Wang Rui. Especially after Wang Rui recognized her guess. The chief sergeant's tone became even more strange, and he said, "It's really a cook...... It's called a kitchen, it's really professional. ”
"Of course, the job of the chef has always been to dig up the secret delicacies hidden all over the world, let's have a piece, I heard those cooks say that this thing is called a rhombus cake, and it tastes very good." I don't know how much I got from the cooking class of the Cadore War Regiment, Wang Rui, who is called Lingbao Dim Sum, ate one piece after another, and then took out another piece and handed it to Robert and said.
"This is the most ...... I've ever seen Lovely military rations. Robert, who is accustomed to pursuing simplicity and practicality in military catering and giving up some image talents, was very accustomed to this kind of military food that brought cuteness to the extreme for the first time, and the chief non-commissioned officer who took the diamond cake from Wang Rui carefully tasted it and immediately said:
"Give me another piece."
"Let go of your stomach and eat. And so much more. Wang Rui put the diamond cake in his hand and put it in a flush shape and said, not looking at the empty food rack in the cooking class. Tearful eyes muttered "Rhombus cake...... I also came over to ......", a little Lori put it in my heart.
Just as Wang Rui and Robert expressed their opinions on the taste of the military rations of this honor guard warband, the invaders guarding the walls of the fortress of Constantinople were full of question marks.
General Lexington, knowing that after the attack on Constantinople, the veteran general, who still had a little military literacy, knew that he had to be prepared to arrive that the enemy had already occupied the fortress, so he brought with him the few magic cannons that he had in York.
Then the old general found that his worries were indeed not wrong, but he also found that those magic cannons were not very effective against the fourth-level defensive enchantment of the fortress of Constantinople that had been reinforced.
In order to show everyone that he was not passively slacking off, and the consumption of this low-power magic cannon was not high, General Lexington simply arranged for these magic cannons to take turns in the center of the military formation to bombard the fortress of Constantinople to firmly resist the enchantment.
Even if it doesn't have any practical significance, at least it can make a sound, isn't it, this is also the scene that Wang Rui saw after getting off the highway.
This scene lasted until Chloe said that he wanted to try the power of the corn cannons, so the magic cannons were moved aside, and the constant bombardment that had been used as a part-time alarm clock came to an end, and this contrast quickly drew the attention of the invaders who occupied the fortress of Constantinople.
"Binoculars!" A blonde woman of short stature, but with no problem with her stature, shouted as she stood on top of the two-tiered armament box that had been specially padded for herself, and after a brief look through the battlements at the location of the Cadore Warband.
This is the old general Lexington when he introduced the invaders to Wang Rui, with many repeated sentences, the second executive of the Third Reich of Fel, known as the "meat grinder" Marshal Verdun, a famous general known for his quick blitzkrieg tactics, compared with others, General Lexington has no advantage except for age.
As for why this marshal is nicknamed "meat grinder", because in her seemingly short body, there is a heart that is colder than steel, whether it is the life of the enemy or the life of her own soldiers, in her eyes it is just some numbers.
She can calmly put her personal guard troops into the dead place on the battlefield, just in exchange for the advantages of several other armies, as for why the personal guard troops are arranged, her answer is that the personal guard troops have high combat effectiveness, and they can delay a little longer before they die.
"Your Excellency Marshal, the city wall is dangerous, and you should not be in danger with your golden body." The leader of the city wall defenders, who looked more like a mage than a soldier, said after handing his boss a binocular.
"Dangerous ground? If that old shitty Lexington could make this place dangerous, I could have looked up to him, but the truth ......" Marshal Verdun, who took the binoculars, made no secret of his disdain for a veteran who relied on his seniority and family background.
"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of just in case" A certain dragon set mage of the leader of the city wall defenders may have said a few more words because of his profession, and other normal soldiers will not waste this tongue.
"There are only 10,000, no in case, if I are entangled in those just in case, I will not be qualified to erect this flag here today."
Marshal Verdun's housekeeping skills blitzkrieg was originally a gambling-like tactic, betting that his speed was fast enough, the assault power was enough, and the opponent's reaction could not keep up, and there was a time lag in the allocation of troops
, a flag arranged by the three letters "FFF".
"That's what the marshal said." The boss of his own family has said this, and the dragon set mage, who temporarily serves as the leader of the defenders of the city wall, lowered his head and said.
As a result, without waiting for the dragon master to think of any more sycophants, Marshal Verdun, who had taken down the telescope, said with a stern face: "There may really be a case." ”
“??”
"Did you think someone was watching us just now?" Wang Rui, who had just glanced at the fortress of Constantinople in the distance, stood next to the flat ground prepared for Chloe and asked.
"You can feel it too? But it's nothing, everyone can see such a big movement. Robert, who glanced at the same position in Constantinople as just now, stared at Wang Rui with some surprise, and hesitated for a moment before saying.
"That's right......" Wang Rui didn't delve into the meaning of Robert's expression, and continued to shift his gaze back to the middle of the flat ground, where a cannon the size of a truck slowly emerged on the deliberately emptied flat ground.
"Corn?" In addition to Wang Rui and Chloe, Robert and even all the onlookers present shared the common voice.
Because this is a scene of a four-wheeled vehicle carrying a large corn cob mallet that can only be held by three people. (To be continued......)
