Chapter 179: Three Families United
The strangest and worst cooperation situation in the world is that the two sides obviously don't trust each other but still have to team up for various reasons, not only do they not have the slightest cooperation, but they also need to worry about being gank by their teammates and dare not use their full strength, and the efficiency can be said to be completely ineffective. And now, Nangong Rong is experiencing this kind of helpless teamwork, and he feels very painful.
Luckily, Octavir focused most of her energy on lecturing a certain snake girl Lori, who had a thin sense of existence, and pointed at Nakiris's nose with one hand on her waist and the other to crack at her, causing the latter's eyes to turn into mosquito coils.
Before the little girl spit out her white soul, Nangong Rong, who couldn't stand it, couldn't help but speak: "Hey, let's stop in moderation, you can already see the enemy's vanguard." ”
The mountain pass, which is not much better than the sheep intestine trail, is generally in a zigzag shape, but near the pass into Mangrove Ridge, it is a straight line, and no one should try to do something with the blind spots in the terrain, it doesn't exist. Therefore, when a team with equipment and clothing and aura that was obviously different from the bandit group appeared from the corner of the road, it was immediately seen by Nangong Rong, who was paying attention.
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who had already slepit on her face about Nakiris's unauthorized departure and followed Nangong Rong to join in the fun, finally gave up the education of her own pet (?), walked over, raised her hand on the pergola, looked into the distance, and said: "Sure enough, it is a regular army, not the robbers who fled before." Anyway, the coat of arms on that banner belongs to the Alfred family, isn't this guy going to cover it up a little?"
People have begun to blatantly attack the down-and-out royal family, is it to send out invitations, want to take you sister and brother back to do something unspeakable, do you still need to hide it? Although the boy thought so in his heart, he didn't say anything, the current situation is not suitable for playing, and it is more important to take the girl to the point of frieze, obediently keep a low profile and watch the play, and then find a chance to shine on the stage.
Or maybe they were looking for an opportunity to escape - reinforcements from the interior of Mangrove Ridge had not yet arrived, and Old Man Toronso took a lot of vehicles with him when he supported Ledana, so that these troops, who had already arrived by car, could now only rely on two legs to hurry, and there was a lot of delay.
Charlotte walked quickly to the eldest princess and said to her, "Your Highness, the reinforcements will arrive in about half an hour, and in this way, the enemy will be able to attack the pass in a few minutes, what should we do?"
Octavier subconsciously glanced at Nangong Rong next to him, but the young man still had that indifferent expression, without any expression, and the girl had no choice but to ignore him and said to herself: "No way, let's see the enemy's situation first." Let the soldiers stay in the car and not come out, their mission is to fight the enemy in the chariot, not to act as cannon fodder infantry on the city walls. If the enemy's vanguard is far away from the main force, we will simply abandon the defense and take the initiative to fight out. ”
Indeed, it is simply difficult for a strong man to let the armored troops guard the city wall or something, and it is better to drive out and give full play to the firepower and mobility advantages of the combat vehicle. There was nothing wrong with the eldest princess's decision, but the girl's next plan was a bit unacceptable.
"Everyone is waiting here, I'm going to scout the enemy. ”
After saying that, Octavir was about to launch a spell and prepare to fly into the sky, but the fast-eyed knight hurriedly grabbed her arm: "Wait, are you planning to go there in person!?
Can I call him?" The eldest princess couldn't help crying and laughing, but it was hard to say it, so she could only turn her head and look at the young man with an inquiring look on her face: "That, what do you think?"
Nangong Rong actually doesn't have much opinion on this, although he doesn't believe in the eldest princess, he just doesn't worry about handing over his back to the girl, and he won't deliberately pick on the serious things that should be done. That's why the eldest princess here asked, and the young man over there nodded decisively and lightly.
"No problem, just leave it to me. ”
The large dragonfly that had rushed to Mangrove Ridge with Nangong Rong and others was originally parked on the cliff wall on the left side, still and posing as a sculpture, when it suddenly flapped its wings and made a loud buzzing sound, jumped up into the sky, and flew straight towards the enemy troops in the distance.
The altitude of the flight is a little subtle, only a little higher than the city wall, compared to the fighter plane, it is almost close to flying close to the ground, and when it rushes over, it startles all kinds of people on the other side to turn their horses and scatter them, and even people who raise their guns and shoot indiscriminately in the air.
This guy definitely did it on purpose, right...... Octavier secretly glanced at the expressionless Nangong Rong, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead and said, "I see, it's really labor-saving and safe to use that thing to replace people to investigate." Go and have the gates open to make it easier for the troops to attack, and if the situation is not suitable, we have no need to defend here, and it makes little difference if the gates are closed and open. ”
"Understood, let's do it. ”
The iron gates were slowly opened with a creaking sound of metal, and even though they didn't play much role in the face of demonic beasts and mechanical weapons, the people in the Razfield plane still liked this ancient wall, and at least they could get a little sense of security through it in their hearts. Even Octavir attached too much importance to the pass, always thinking about how to hold it, thinking that it would stop the enemy from attacking.
Nangong Rong, who had gained a lot of knowledge in Lin Weiyin's hometown, was neither sure nor opposed to the actions of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, and he could come up with many ways to easily break through the pass, but it did not mean that the enemy could also think of and have the equipment to carry out these plans. So it's better to do things according to the will of the eldest princess now, after all, she is the commander.
In this plane, there should be no one who has such advanced consciousness, even if the lord who takes the initiative to attack is an extremely wise and resolute hero, and even if he has that kind of consciousness, he can't do it with the power of a single lord.
So the boy did not send the dragonfly to the sky to check the situation in the sky, but used it to disturb the enemy army on the ground to buy time for everyone, and at the same time conveyed the situation of the enemy army to Nangong Rong in real time, so that he could [see] the situation of the other party.
"The vanguard consisted of infantry in cars, with a few tanks mixed in the middle, some of which had artillery towed behind them, and except for its relatively small size, it was no different from the Third Motorized Infantry Regiment of the Empire, which had been wiped out outside the city of Ledana. Nangong Rong closed his eyes and explained to the friends next to him while receiving the scene of the dragonfly in his mind, in a sense, it was very similar to the on-site commentary, "But in this kind of place, they can't deploy at all, unless the opponent's tanks are willing to run over their own infantry to rush out and maneuver, otherwise after your troops pass, Eldest Princess, they can only become targets that are difficult to move." ”
Sure enough, the terrain here can indeed limit a large army to death, but only Razfield, who has a short time for technological transformation and is even particularly overshadowed by the abyss, will feel a headache for the mountain pass road. That's fine, it's better to let them spend time in the mountain pass than to go on a rampage in Mangrove Ridge.
Nangong Rong was completely relieved at this time, he controlled the dragonfly to sweep straight past the vanguard, and then flew towards the main force in the rear, intending to find out there. If the conditions are right, the boy doesn't mind detonating a dragonfly on a cliff face and smashing countless rocks down on the enemy's head.
However, after turning the corner and seeing the enemy army in the distance, Nangong Rong couldn't help but wonder on the spot: "Ahhhhh
However, what the young man didn't see was that Octavir next to him changed his face every time he heard the description of a flag, and finally he couldn't help but squeeze his hand and punch the battlement, gritting his teeth and saying hatefully: "Westft, Tannidon and Alfred, you can, the three of them have formed an alliance!
Before the eldest princess finished speaking, Nangong Rong opened her eyes, raised her hand and scratched her head, with a painful expression on her face: "That's really a pity, but it's normal for one family to join other families to form a team to gather fire, nothing strange." ”
"Aren't you going to keep checking on the other party?"
Immediately following the girl's words, there was a dense roar of machine guns from the corner, and the young man immediately spread his hands helplessly: "There are several anti-aircraft vehicles in the front row of the line, and it is estimated that the vanguard notified the people behind by radio. ”
"Okay. So how far apart are the two enemy teams, and will our troops have enough time to make a sortie before returning safely?"
"Most of the main forces in the rear are infantry, and they can't catch up in a short time, and even if they do, they don't necessarily carry anti-armor weapons, and about ten minutes is almost what they should have. ”
Although Nangong Rong was not good at analyzing and speculating, which caused him to be very vague, it was enough for Octavir, and the girl immediately turned around and walked to the other side of the city wall, looked at the neatly arranged armored convoy below and took a deep breath, waved her arms fiercely and said loudly: "It's time, attack!"
The torrent of steel soon rolled up a large amount of smoke and dust and roared away, leaving only Nangong Rong and Lin Weiyin silently playing soy sauce on the city wall, and even Nakiris, who was originally reluctant to act, was dragged away by the eldest princess.
At this time, Lin Weiyin had the opportunity to talk to Brother Cheap, she looked at Octavier standing on the turret of a tank in the distance and said with a sigh: "I always feel that this eldest princess is a little different from what I imagined, she is not the kind of person who is completely unreasonable, on the contrary, she is very brave." ”
Nangong Rong unexpectedly did not deny this statement, but nodded approvingly: "No matter what she has done to me and my compatriots, it is for her country, not for what she likes to do." So I just don't trust Octavier, but I don't hate her. In a peaceful and prosperous dynasty, she will probably become a beloved and approachable princess, and she will definitely not need to go to the battlefield in person like now. ”
"Hmm, is that so?" Lin Weiyin squinted her eyes and looked at Nangong Rong meaningfully, and suddenly asked when the latter couldn't help but be about to blow up, "Na, you actually like her a little bit in your heart, right?"
If he was drinking water at the moment, Nangong Rong believed that he would probably be choked to death on the spot, even if he didn't drink water, the boy still gasped and coughed violently, and when he finally calmed down and breathed, tears even appeared in the corners of his eyes: "Death, dead girl, what are you talking nonsense, have the lines really been considered by the brain?"
In the distance, the armored forces under the command of the eldest princess had already launched an artillery bombardment, and the enemy's side was not slow to react, with the tanks trying to move and some infantry trying to unload their guns. It's just that from the beginning, what they were thinking about was how to overcome the pass, which had been completely ragged and defenseless by the bandits, and they did not expect the active attack of the defenders' armored forces at all.
The counterattack was met with little force, because the enemy would not be able to organize at all for a while.
It's remarkable that Octavir had already thought of this just by looking at it from a distance, so he decided to take the initiative. Seeing this, Nangong Rong first sighed with admiration, and then gently shook his head and continued: "In short, liking will never be there, at most it is a little feeling, after all, she is an out-and-out beauty, and it would be a lie to say that she is not tempted." But, that's all, I don't and don't intend to think more about her, and even plan to part ways with her after evacuating all my brethren from the Razfield plane. So don't mess around anymore, Octavir wants to restore the glory of the Empire, I want to arrange a new life for my people, and unless the Empire abandons the current discriminatory ideology, the two of us will never be able to coexist. ”
"Yes, that's a pity, I always feel that the eldest princess seems to be a little interesting to you subconsciously...... It hurts!"
The young man's hand knife interrupted the cheap sister's mouth, and was about to continue the reprimand, but suddenly stopped.
"I said Weiyin, did you hear any strange sounds?"
