Without further ado, I hope the follow-up episodes won't disappoint you. ^^

These 1,800 people were specially applied by Major General Buffett to the command post of the Left Wing Group, and they were drawn from various units on the Left Wing, and all of them were composed of fighters above the fifth level, and most of these people were of the non-commissioned officer class, which made this trapping team particularly luxurious. Compared with these people, most of them are only third-level warriors' private army, which is too bad.

Feleg and Kaidi were at the head of the line, and the fighters in the front row were Feleg's private army, so it didn't look like they were strong. Those warriors above level 5 are all real warriors who have experienced the war, no matter how they disguise themselves, it is easy for people to see the flaws, and the smell of blood on their bodies cannot be hidden no matter what.

"Did you say the Mayan Elite Rider would be fooled?" asked Feleg with some concern, if there were more people.

"Definitely, our team is considered to be small in the food transport team, the Maya has less than 10,000 horsemen, and they will definitely send people to deal with us, even if they know that we may be a trap here, they will not care, but they may be careful, such as sending three or four thousand people, it is possible, if there are more, it will be difficult, it is easy to be discovered by our scouts. ”

"That's good, the last fight was so humiliating. ”

"It's better to be careful, this time our strength is not weak, but the enemy is also very strong, we must be careful. "Kaidi is not optimistic about this operation, but he doesn't care about his own safety, not to mention that he has such a strong chain mail, even if he only uses a magic shield, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to escape, so far, I haven't heard of a magician in the Mayan Spirit Ride.

As long as there are no magicians of the same level among the enemies, and there are no warriors above the fifteenth level, it is impossible for them to leave the two magicians behind, not to mention that he also knows that Feleg's mount is a wind beast known for its speed, and others can't recognize it, and he, a magician, will not admit it.

"Your Highness, according to the report of the scouts, a grain convoy was found, with a hundred carts and a thousand guards. Zhou Guoqiang walked into the tent and reported to the young man sitting in the big tent.

"Uncle, sit down, do you see if there is a problem with this grain transport team?" Zhou Wenfu asked, as the third prince of the Mayan Empire, at the age of twenty-six, he has the combat power of a fourteenth-level samurai, and among the eighteen princes of the Mayan Empire, in terms of ability alone, he can definitely rank in the top three. He not only has a strong combat power, but also has a unique way in command, is a rare handsome material, this harassment of the Oakland Empire's left-wing logistics base was commanded by him.

Although he has worked very hard, the gap in strength is still too big, among the eight thousand elite cavalry, only three thousand are warriors over the fifth level, and most of the others are third and fourth level warriors, which is already a very remarkable team.

There is nothing surprising about Buffett and his subordinates in command, but there are no major mistakes, and being decent is sometimes the most difficult to deal with. The entire left flank logistically supplied the four cities, with a total strength of more than 200,000 troops, and it was too difficult to achieve the goal with 8,000 men.

Under such difficult conditions, Pike divided his troops into small units, with elite knights as the main force, and set up ambushes everywhere, and in less than two months, he annihilated more than 28,000 people of the Oakland Imperial Army, and his own losses were only 600 people.

But this kind of battle is not satisfactory to him, if he can burn a supply city, it can be said that the current harassment war, although it has also brought a lot of trouble to the supply of the left group in Oakland, has not reached the level of breaking the bones, the enemy on the front line does not even have the possibility of starvation, at most to reduce the supply of alcohol and meat.

"It must be a trap, in the past month, Auckland's grain escort has never been less than 5,000 people. Zhou Guoqiang said.

"Then let him go?" Zhou Wenfu raised his head and said with a smile on his face, revealing two cute tiger teeth.

"Why let it go? A thousand escorts, plus a maximum of a thousand people in the cart, even if they are also fifth-level fighters, we still have a great chance, even if we can't burn the supply base, it's not bad to hit the enemy army hard, if these people are really fifth-level fighters, it is equivalent to emptying the middle-level fighters of the left wing group, if we can eliminate them, it can greatly reduce the pressure on the right wing of our army's front line, isn't it?"

"Uncle really doesn't get old, I think so too, let's be careful, bring all the three thousand elite horsemen, and those five small siege crossbows, I don't think they would have thought that we would bring this thing. Zhou Wenfu smiled a little evilly, but the two little tiger teeth were so cute that they were enough to fascinate all the women in the entire capital.

"Third Highness, aren't you afraid of Auckland's reinforcements? You must know that within a few hundred kilometers around here, there are nearly 200,000 Auckland troops, although most of them are garbage soldiers of the principality, but 40,000 Auckland regular troops are still very strong in combat effectiveness. ”

"Since it's a trap, naturally there must be enough bait, I guess there won't be any enemy reinforcements within 50 kilometers around this grain convoy, that is to say, that old guy from Buffett gave us two or three hours to see if we can eat. Whether we can eat it or not, within two and a half hours, we must withdraw from the battle. Wen Fu said confidently.

"You're right. "Zhou Guoqiang is in a good mood, he has long been optimistic about the Third Highness, and he has enough ability to become the next Mayan king. Although he is not very old, his personal combat strength is already the same as his own, and the most important thing is that his grasp of the overall situation and his command ability when facing the war are very good.

"Do you have anything to worry about?" Seeing the thoughtful and hesitant look on Zhou Wenfu's face, Zhou Guoqiang asked.

"Yes, a little worried, remember the battle a month ago? Wen Fu said.

"I don't think there's too much to worry about, according to the commander at the time, Peter Berg, the armor of these two hundred people is quite special, but it is not difficult to deal with, their combat level is very low, Peter and his men did not expect that there will be such a large number of casualties, as for the magician, it should be a junior magician, it is indeed a little difficult to deal with, but if you use a small siege crossbow, the situation is different. ”

"No, you don't know how powerful a magician is, my sixth sister is a junior magician, I am not her opponent at all, and the two of us are only the strongest individual combat power in the team, even if the two of us go together, we are not his opponents. Wen Fu said.

"Then how is Your Highness going to deal with that magician?" asked Guoqiang, who also couldn't think of a good way.

"First of all, use the siege crossbow, and then prepare a few groups of good hands, just drag him down, don't let the warriors concentrate, the magician has a group attack magic. Among the magicians, the junior magicians are not strong, their magic is limited, and I am ready to spend two hundred people to exhaust his magic. Zhou Wenfu said softly, feeling that it still didn't seem to be enough to do so.

"Your Highness, I think this is enough, you know, elemental crystals are very precious things, a young magician, it is impossible to have many elemental crystals, and even if there are, he does not have enough magic. "Prince Guoqiang is not ignorant of magicians.

"We made the mistake of thinking that there wouldn't be any magicians here, and if we had known were, we should have brought two magicians here. Wen Fu regretted it a little, he thought that 8,000 warriors were enough.

"The right place ahead is the best place to ambush, but the scouts haven't spotted the enemy yet. Kay reports to Feleg.

"Well, keep going, slow down, be careful. Feleg replied, holding up the magic shield, and Kaidi used the magic shield first, for the magician, the magic shield is the guarantee of life.

"Boom ......" the sound of breaking the air, Feleg didn't make any quick moves, and reluctantly injected more magic power into the magic shield, the blue light of the magic shield shone, and the flexible magic shield was almost pierced, and the powerful force knocked Feleg into the air.

The crossbow arrow with a thick arm, after knocking Feleg into the air, was still castrated, knocking Kai behind him into the air, but fortunately, after the crossbow power passed through the magic shield, it was much weaker, and it failed to penetrate the armor on Kai's body, leaving a deep mark.

"Enemy attack. Kai, who was flying in mid-air, shouted loudly, after a month of intensive training, the quality of Feleg's private army has been very significantly improved, and a row of arm shields has been erected.

The arm shield is only two feet high and one and a half feet wide, unable to block the whole body, but can only protect the vital parts, and all the soldiers choose to raise it above their chests, and the neck is the most vulnerable part of the armor.

It's a pity that this time they were wrong again, the other party used not bows and arrows, but siege crossbows, even the smallest ones, which could not be resisted by armor.

The three soldiers flew up, the crossbow arrows with the thickness of their arms, piercing them through the armor, the shining arrows pierced through the back armor, and the people crashed into the soldiers in the second row, the defense of the memory metal armor was really strong, and the weakened crossbow arrows barely pierced the armor of the soldiers in the second row, and they had lost their power and were not enough to be fatal.

The regular Imperial troops in the back row reacted faster, and at the same time as the first row of crossbow arrows attacked, they had already begun to counterattack, the crossbow arrows in their hands were much smaller than the siege crossbows, but there were many more of them, and since it was a surprise attack, they could not accurately judge the location of the target, and could only carry out suppressive fire.

In addition to the five siege city crossbows, there were more than two hundred crossbow bows, fifteen hundred longbows, and arrows rained down on the Oakland Imperial Army. The front row were all Feleg's private army, with memory metal armor, which reflected their preciousness at this time, whether it was a flat-fired crossbow arrow or a thrown bow and arrow, it could not cause fatal damage to their armor, only the five attacking crossbows were the most threatening.
