Chapter 1: The First War: 1. Blocking the Great Wind

The next day, when the sky was hazy and slightly bright, I beckoned everyone to get up. When we reached the top of the first slope of the mountain, the sky was clear. Depending on the situation, today is another good day.

I stood at the top of the slope and looked back at the valley where the tribe was located, at the rolling hills under the bright blue sky, at the lush trees on the mountains, at the lush trees surrounding a golden wheat field, at the golden waves set off by the breeze on the golden wheat field. I stood on the top of the hillside and watched a gleaming river flow out of the mountain like a shiny blue string through the boundless gold. The river flowed calmly and silently. Like a melodious violin, it blooms like a cloud flower that delicately describes the wandering sky in the sky. It depicts that when the clouds pass over the top of the mountain, all the leaves flicker in an instant, and they shine brightly with the wind. At this moment, it seems that I can feel the atmosphere of the colors of the sky, the flow of the colors of the forest, and the colors of the fields. I can feel the romance of the colors of the seasons, the ethereal colors of time, and the elegance of the colors of the air. I can feel the solemnity of the mountains, the hazy colors of the water, and the infinite variety of colors of the sky. Even if it's a leaf, even if it's a small flower, even if it's an ear of wheat, I can feel the subtlety of its color, and I can also feel the vitality of its color. I stood on the top of the hillside, looking at the incomparably moving beauty in front of me, but my heart was filled with emotion. In order not to destroy the beautiful homeland of the Horde, I try to keep the fighting away from the land. It's just that under the fire, I'm afraid it's not as I want. The direction of the war will not be shifted by my will. But I still hope that after the war drags on, everything here will remain as beautiful as it seems.

I left the old man and a few little ones in the valley behind, and once the mercenaries broke through our first line of defense, I let them blast along the way to stop the mercenaries in their advance. According to my assumption, using these three lines of defense can hold off the mercenaries for at least two days. In this way, Aya and the leader of the tribe had enough time to arrange the rest of the matter.

But things turned out beyond my expectations.

By the time we reached the top of the hillside that had been prepared the day before after the gale, Dole and the watchman were already waiting behind the rocks. Doler told me that at dawn they were ready to retreat as I asked. But unexpectedly, the mercenaries sent people to set off first as soon as it was dawn. The men quickly found their way into the mountains, and just as they had laid a few traps, the mercenaries appeared. Fortunately, they noticed it in time and hid in the rocks of the gale. However, they only have time to set up some simple obstacles on the road to confuse the mercenaries to identify the road, and they have no time to destroy or hide the road. Shortly after they reached the top of the hill, the mercenaries came down the hill. But these mercenaries obviously have some scruples about the strong winds and rolling rocks on the hillside, and are now resting behind a few large rocks at the bottom of the hillside, and it is estimated that after a while, it is time to start climbing. But we hid well along the way, and the mercenaries didn't notice our presence.

The speed with which these mercenaries advanced surprised me. It seems that I still underestimated Ruoyu, for a person with a heart, she must have done enough homework on the geography here, and these complex environments did not stump her. These mercenaries were able to find their way into the mountain so quickly, and pass through the rocks at the mouth of the wind so quickly, it should be that Ruoyu had already provided the mercenaries with a map and a direction to travel. I was careless. Ruoyu may have already sensed my intentions, and her so-called road signs are nothing more than her double insurance, or simply cover. If I didn't find it, her signposts were the coordinates of the field. If I had found out, the signs would have given me a delusion. Thus making me make wrong judgments and arrangements. In fact, her plan is progressing step by step. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but gasp. Fortunately, Ruoyu didn't know what I was going to do, and even if she noticed it when she arrived at the temple, she was already imprisoned at that time, and she couldn't send any information to the outside world at all, so she could only cry out in vain!

I told everyone to hide behind the rocks and never reveal the target. I asked Doler, "How many mercenaries are there down the slope now?" ”

"I didn't count them, but there weren't many of them, probably a dozen or so. ”

I nodded, and told everyone, "Let's not expose ourselves, and when these people climb halfway up the slope, they will attack by watching my gestures, and they are not allowed to use firearms, only these rolling stones, and try to kill all of them without any left!" ”

I lay behind the pile of rocks and looked down the hillside through the cracks in the rocks. Soon, I saw the mercenaries, who had changed into uniform uniforms, emerge from behind the boulders. I counted twelve of them, two of whom had bandages around their arms, as if they had been wounded by traps or traps set by Doler. It seems that these people are the vanguard reconnaissance detachment of mercenaries. The mercenaries were unaware that there was an ambush on the top of the hillside, perhaps in their minds, no one could survive in such a harsh environment.

The mercenaries stepped out from behind the boulder and came in a three-three-two-two direction towards the top of the hillside. I look at the figures of these people, one by one walking is not difficult, even when they encounter the rolling stones, they do not run away, but identify the direction of the rolling stones, and when they are almost in front of them, they dodge a little and avoid the rolling stones. Obviously, these people were trained to walk against the wind before entering the mountains.

The mercenaries soon reached the halfway point of the hill. With a wave of my hand, everyone hiding behind the pile pushed the stone in front of me. In an instant, large and small stones rained down on the mercenaries halfway up the hill.

The mercenaries were unprepared, dodging left and right in this sudden influx of countless rolling stones, embarrassed. The first few people who walked in front were quickly hit by the rocks, and they rolled down to the bottom of the slope with the rocks, where they lay motionless. Even if the stone in the back hit the body again, there was no response, and it was obviously already returning to the west. The person walking behind moves quickly, and as soon as he realizes that the situation is not right, he turns around and runs. The men quickly ran down the slope and found cover.

As soon as I saw that the mercenaries were hiding, I motioned for everyone to stop.

After a while, the mercenaries who were hiding seemed to notice that there was no movement outside, and one by one they stuck their heads out of their hiding places and looked up the hillside. Moments later, a mercenary stepped out of hiding.
