Chapter 309: The Decisive Battle of the Great Wall 21

After the first appearance of the Blue Dragon Archers of the Silver Moon, the barbarian army outside the Great Wall of Desperation fell into a brief silence.

"Give me a quick ascertain, what kind of Qin Ding reinforcements are coming from the Great Wall of Desperation!" Barbarian Marshal Ulm commanded to the soldiers beside him with a gloomy face.

After a while, the soldier returned to the high platform with a cyan steel feather arrow.

"Marshal, the Qin Ding reinforcements of the Great Wall of Desperation are the Blue Dragon Legion, one of the four major legions of Qin Ding!" After speaking, the soldier respectfully held the steel feather arrow in his hand in front of Marshal Ulm.

"Blue Dragon Legion!"

A gleam flashed in Ulm's eyes.

He raised his hand to take the cyan steel feather arrow, frowning and falling into deep thought.

Since Ulm became a barbarian marshal, he has led a large army to invade the border of the Qin and Ding Empires seven times to "fight the autumn wind".

Since ancient times, the barbarians have been the main nomadic people in the bitter cold land in the north of the Qinding Continent, and the living conditions of many of their tribes are relatively difficult. In the bitter cold land of the extreme north, where ice and snow are used for half of the year, spring and summer are fine, but in late autumn, the livelihood of the common people of the barbarian tribes is unsustainable.

At this time, most of the northern part of the Qinding Continent was already a country of ice and snow, and the barbarian people, not to mention grazing, were difficult to collect even wild vegetables and fruits. If you rely on hunting alone, the prey you harvest will not be able to feed the entire barbarian tribe.

For the sake of livelihood, the barbarians set their sights on the territories around their territory, and the wealthy Qin and Ding empires immediately became the first target of the barbarians to "fight the autumn wind".

Every year, as long as the late autumn passes, the barbarian Great Khan will gather the elite warriors of various tribes and go to the border area of the Qin and Ding Empire to burn and plunder. Wherever the barbarian armies went. The local grain and livestock were looted, and the old, weak, sick and disabled among the people of Qin and Ding were killed. Young women were ravaged and humiliated, and young men were taken into slavery by barbarian armies.

For the atrocities of the barbarian armies. Emperor Qin Ding was furious, so he ordered the construction of the Great Wall on the northern border to resist the barbarian attacks on the Qin and Ding borders.

I have to say that after the construction of the Great Wall is completed, it will become very difficult for the barbarians to wantonly invade the Qin-Ding border. So the barbarian army had no choice but to retreat and turn the iron hooves of their ice horses against other small countries in the north.

Unfortunately, these small northern countries have few people and little property, and the food and property looted from them cannot meet the needs of all the barbarian tribes.

Therefore, the barbarians had to lock their covetous eyes on the Qin Ding Empire again.

Since then, for thousands of years, the northern barbarians and the Qin and Ding empires have been constantly engaged in friction on the border. The border people are in ruins, and the people are struggling to make a living.

The emperors of the Qin and Ding dynasties sent large armies north of the Great Wall several times to sweep the barbarians, in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots and cut off future troubles. But helplessly, in the vast northern wasteland, the Qin Ding army could not wipe out all the barbarian tribes at once. In addition, the barbarians are the natives of the north, they are very familiar with the local terrain and climate, and before the Qin Ding army arrived, the nearby barbarian tribes had already fled.

Moreover, during the expedition of the Qin and Ding armies to the north, the barbarian tribes would send elite cavalry to attack and harass them. The bad weather and the elusive enemy made the Qin Ding army miserable, and several expeditions could only end hastily, and they could not achieve any results at all.

After the withdrawal of the Qin and Ding armies, the barbarians were still active in the vast land of the north. It's late autumn. As in previous years, they gathered a large army to launch an invasion of the Qin and Ding Empire.

Over time, both the Qin and Ding empires and the barbarians seemed to regard the northern border as their best training grounds. So much so that the elite soldiers and horses of both sides have dealt with each other here.

As the elite of the Qin Ding Empire's army, the Blue Dragon Legion certainly fought against the barbarian army. And the number of fights is not a few. Both sides know each other's military strength and combat strength.

In terms of the combat power of the elite troops of the Blue Dragon Legion and the Barbarian Army, if the number is equal. The barbarian army will be defeated! But if the ratio of the two sides is more than 1:5, the balance of victory will be tilted in favor of the barbarians.

Thinking of this, the barbarian marshal Ulm immediately opened his mouth and asked the pro-soldier:

"How many people are there in the Blue Dragon Legion who came to the Great Wall of Desperation to support this time?"

The soldier hurriedly replied: "Marshal, according to the report of the scout flying eagle of our army lurking in the territory of Qin Ding, the Blue Dragon Legion that has just entered the Great Wall of Desperation has more than 20,000 people, including 1,000 cavalry and 2,000 archers. ”

Hearing this, the barbarian marshal Ulm suddenly frowned.

Unexpectedly, the Blue Dragon Legion only came with more than 20,000 people, which is not to be afraid of for the 200,000 barbarian army!

"Order the lurking scouts to continue to closely monitor the movements of the Qin Ding army, and once any more Qin Ding army approaches the desperate Great Wall, report back immediately!" Marshal Ulm said in a deep voice to his soldiers.

Judging from Marshal Ulm's cautious attitude, he was still very jealous of the Blue Dragon Legion of the Qin Ding Empire.

Because in the previous encounters between Marshal Ulm's army and the Blue Dragon Legion, there was very no victory, and every time the Blue Dragon Legion swept his barbarian army with an absolute advantage. This is an eternal sore spot in the heart of the arrogant barbarian marshal Ulm.

But at this moment, for Marshal Ulm, the time has come for him to be ashamed!

"The Blue Dragon Legion has only arrived with 20,000 horses, and I, Ulm, will definitely wipe them all out today! Use the blood of the green dragon to pay tribute to my barbarians and the warriors who died in battle! ”

Thinking of this, the barbarian marshal Ulm's eyes had more confidence and fanaticism. He squinted and stared at the Far Wall of Desperation for a moment, then turned sharply and gritted his teeth and said to his herald:

"Pass my order, and in a quarter of an hour, all the barbarian warriors will launch a bloody assault on the Great Wall of Desperation!"

"Yes!" The tall herald immediately walked to the edge of the platform and held up the huge battle flag embroidered with the head of the ice wolf.

At this time Marshal Ulm instructed another herald:

"Quickly inform General Shatuk and let him prepare for the attack, and whether he can successfully break through the Great Wall of Desperation in a later period depends on his 40,000 horses!"

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the soldiers hurriedly ran down the high platform and rushed towards the direction of the barbarian camp.

When all the strong attacks were ready, the barbarian marshal Ulm walked to the edge of the high platform and looked at the towering Great Wall in the distance.

"Blue Dragon Legion...... The Great Wall of Desperation...... Today, I, Ulm, vow to wipe you out under the iron hooves of my barbarians! ”

The barbarian marshal Ulm's hands were tightly clenched into a pair of iron fists.

At this moment, Yue Tian, who had been observing the barbarian army formation with his Eagle Eye skill on the Great Wall of Desperation, suddenly turned his head and asked Yinyue beside him:

"Yinyue, a battle flag has been raised on the high platform where the barbarian marshal is, are they trying to make any big moves?"

"Battle flags? What is the pattern on the battle flag? Yinyue asked with some alarm.

"It's an ice-borne wolf head with teeth and claws." Yue Tian squinted and replied.

Listening to Yue Tian's answer, Yinyue's face suddenly sank. She said to Yue Tian with a solemn expression:

"Xin Yi, hurry up and inform your men and horses to prepare for battle, the barbarian army is about to launch a bloody oath attack on us!" (To be continued......)
