Chapter 62: Ice Sword vs. Golden Arrow

Sijiu shouted stupid two big guys, and at the same time prepared the weapons that the young master would use to requisition. Putting on a lightweight version of the knight's armor for the young master, and going around the back to help the young master tie the silk under his ribs, Sijiu asked, "This young master, do you think you are sure to fight this battle?"

Lu Jingzhi glanced back and said with a smile: "This battle can be expected to be won." ”

When Sijiu heard this, he immediately smiled, his movements were much brisker, and he muttered to the young master: "Look at my stupidity, and I still think that the guy from Ice Sword Shaoer is very difficult to deal with, and I didn't think that you didn't even pay attention to a lineup as big as Ados, and you were worried about it." ”

Tangtang watched from the side, and when Sijiu was busy and walked away, he asked Lu Jingzhi, "Brother Jing, what is your way to win?"

Lu Jingzhi sighed and replied in a low voice: "There has always been only a way to win a war, how can there be a way to win? Sijiu's happiness and fear are all written on his face, if he has not yet played in the battle, he will cry and mourn his face, which makes people feel unconfident at first glance. I'm a clever trick to calm the world, and I'll lose ......" suddenly remembered that the second half of the sentence was not very auspicious, and hurriedly stopped his mouth, haha smiled to cover the past.

Lu Jingzhi patted the stupid big leg and asked him to squat, then stepped on the small stool brought by Sijiu, jumped up, and sat firmly on the stupid shoulder. Silly could sense that his master was seated, so he stood up and walked forward. Behind him was the silly second who was dragging the baggage cart, and then behind him were the undead cavalry.

On this expedition, none of the knights of the Afalon Legion were brought with him, and all the recruits he had trained were with them. Those recruits were originally subordinates, and they used to fight with the knights, and the honors they received were all knights', and they could only get some pitiful rewards from the knights. This time it was different, after three months of combat training, they were about to fight for themselves, and their names would be written on each of their exploits, and their morale would be different from usual.

After half a day's march, he saw in the distance the Ice Sword Sauer Domain, which was twenty miles away from the castle. Here he built himself a small fort, which, though not strong, would be difficult to take if he was not prepared.

The sentry in the walled fort had already seen the marching army, and the alarm bell rang in the distance, echoing in the open fields. Lu Jingzhi patted the stupid big head, made the stupid big stop, and ordered the undead army that came up to set up a formation to fight the enemy. Under Busen's command, infantry, archers, and cavalry were arranged in a staggered formation, waiting for orders.

"Busen, if you were to be in command, how would you fight this battle?" Lu Jingzhi asked the deputy commander who was riding a horse and following him.

"Your Excellency Commander, the soldiers of our army are several times taller than the other side, of course, after surrounding, attack more points, so that the other party is tired, and then choose the weakest point to attack, and take the entire fortress in one go. Buson replied without thinking. This answer is very pertinent, but if you attack a city or pull out a fortress, as long as you have an advantage in troops, you will have the initiative in your hands, and you can fight it no matter how you want.

"That's a good answer, but today we're going to play differently. Lu Jingzhi ordered a few undead infantry to unload the contents of the baggage cart, and then called a few human slaves who accompanied the army to come and assemble them. Not long after, a huge ballista appeared. The ballista's launcher is made of a spiral-shaped steel wire that is so resilient that it can launch a 22-pound ball of stone along a smooth, semi-cylindrical trajectory that can fly up to 1,300 feet away, 40 feet high, and finally break two layers of stone slabs.

"It's a pity that the quenching technology of spring steel is not mature, and the spring will collapse after three or four launches. Lu Jingzhi regretfully drove the stupid big to walk a few steps far, just in case the spring broke and accidentally hurt himself, "Next time, remember to add an iron cover to the place where the spring is installed, so that it will be much safer when operating." He took out a pen and paper and jotted down his thoughts.

Soon, the first stone ball flew out, whistling past the low wall of the fort and crashing into an observation tower behind it. There was only a crackling sound, and the sturdy-looking watchtower was knocked down.

Busen's eyes were about to fall off—the eyes of the undead were already easy to fall out of their sockets—and he said in surprise: "Your Excellency, what kind of weapon is this? A small stone ball can shatter such a sturdy wooden tower!"

"Cannon!" Lu Jingzhi replied succinctly, each spring on the ballista was the thickness of an adult's index finger, and pressing it down required two strong men to desperately turn a winch. And to launch one of these stone balls, four hundred springs must be pressed. The stone ball fired out hits the obstacle, and it can release the energy of a small bomb, smashing a small wooden watchtower, and it is no simpler.

Ice Sword Sauer appeared on the wall of his fort, frowning at the Duke's army that had formed hundreds of feet away, but there was nothing he could do. For him to take his own personal knights to assault the positions that have been arranged, it is tantamount to sending him to death. But if they do nothing, they can only watch as they throw stones at the distance and attack their forts.

"Lu Jingzhi boy, do you dare to fight me?!" Ice Sword Shao'er danced a one-handed sword with a cold light, standing on the wall and shouting in battle. Lu Jingzhi sat on his stupid shoulders and replied, "Why don't you dare? You come out first, and we will decide the winner one-on-one." "But it's too far away, and he doesn't have enough breath in the end, and if he shouts out, he can't send it to the walled fort.

Sijiu has been following the young master for a long time, so he naturally knows the situation, and as soon as he lifted the reins of the donkey, he trotted to the front of the formation, and shouted loudly: "The ice lump resting on the wall is true to Lao Tzu, my young master asked you to roll down from the broken wall, if you don't fall to death, wash your neck and wait to be slaughtered, my young master will come over to teach you a lesson." ”

When Ice Sword Shaoer heard this, he immediately became angry in his heart, and evil was born to his guts. The low wall was not high, so Shaoer jumped down, rushed towards Sijiu with his sword, and swore to split this evil bastard in half with a sword. Sijiu originally came to curry favor with the enemy, but when he finished scolding, he turned around and returned to the battle, but he did not expect that the enemy would jump down from the wall and kill himself? This frightening hand was so weak that he could not even hold the reins steadily. But the donkey only cared about grazing, and not only did not go back, but also took two steps forward.

Seeing that Sijiu was about to split Sauer in half, he suddenly shot three arrows from the formation. The first arrow was shot at the gap in the armor around Sauer's waist, and he picked it open with his sword; the second arrow was shot at Sauer's right eye, and after calculating that his right hand sword was opened, the sword momentum was old, and the empty door on his right side was wide open, unstoppable, forcing him to dodge to the left; the third arrow was shot on the front leg of the donkey ridden by Sijiu, who hissed in grief and fell to the ground with the same screaming Sijiu.

At this moment, a stone ball flew with a scream, past the fallen Sijiu, and shot straight into Sauer's chest. Sauer was horrified, and at this time his steps to the left were already old, and he couldn't turn around in a hurry, so he had to hold his sword in both hands and slash at the stone ball. Hearing a snapping sound, the stone ball broke the long sword and hit Sauer's breastplate, directly shattering the cuirass. In a desperate situation, Sauer hurriedly turned sideways and used his right arm to block, and the stone ball swirled, tearing Sauer's right arm, and flew out with a shoulder, crashing into the low wall of the walled fort, and a large piece collapsed, and several of the infantry standing on it fell. The famous Ice Sword Shaoer seemed to be vulnerable under this stone ball, and he had no power to fight back.

Seeing that after Sauer fell, he didn't even have the strength to get up, Lu Jingzhi casually called two human slaves, lassoed Sauer with a rope pole, and tied him up.

"It's a pity. Lu Jingzhi said to Busen.

Although Busen had seen the stone ball destroy the watchtower before, he didn't expect that even the Ice Sword Sauer would not be able to walk in front of it, and then he heard His Excellency the Legion Commander say that it was a pity, and he hurriedly asked: "Your Excellency, what do you say is a pity?"

Lu Jingzhi pointed to the ballista and said: "When I fired just now, I didn't even tighten half of the spring, if I tightened it again, it would be faster and more lethal, if I hit it head-on, I was afraid that the whole body would be blown up." ”

Busen knew that this was true, and he couldn't help but feel a sudden shock in his heart. He peeked at the miserable situation of the Ice Sword Sauer, and thought to himself that if he faced this cannon, even if it was a shot that was not full of springs, he would never be able to resist it.

Sijiu limped over from the front of the formation, pointed to a large piece of black green that was pressed out of his leg and complained: "This young master, look at this small injury, just shout two words for you, and let people fall with one arrow." The small number of lives is too bad, I'm afraid that if I go to the battlefield with you a few times, I will not be far from death. ”

Lu Jingzhi said with a smile: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to catch this guy Ice Sword Shao'er." As he spoke, Busen had already led his troops to reclaim the fort. The infantrymen and knights inside were all frightened by the ballista, and they couldn't even think of resisting. Everywhere Busen led his troops, there was a sound of choking and throwing swords.

On the way back to the army, Sijiu changed to a pack horse. This is not an undead war horse, but a live horse used by the human slaves accompanying the army to transport heavy loads, but they are far inferior in height and physical strength to war horses, and they are only used to carry things in the army.

"This young master, do you know who shot this arrow? Go back and find it, and punish him heavily, so that he can give the little one his anger. Forty-nine rode a horse and followed Silly Da, babbling and muttering.

"Don't talk nonsense, or I'll turn around and provoke the archer to start a fire, and I won't be able to save you. Lu Jingzhi scared him.

"This young master, you can laugh. Is there anyone in this army who is not afraid of you?" Sijiu was quite proud of his young master, and said disapprovingly at the moment. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, he was kicked in the waist and fell directly from the horse. A petite figure jumped on horseback, carrying a small bow behind him.

"You...... You...... Are you ......" Sijiu was shocked and scared, who dared to snatch his horse in front of the young master. But this bow, this figure, how can it be so familiar.

The figure on the horse lifted its hood, revealing a ponytail, and there was a laugh of cards. "Sijiu, I shot that arrow, aren't you satisfied?"

"Mom!" Sijiu had the heart to cry, how could he care about the injury on his leg, he hurriedly trotted a few steps to follow, and said with a smile: "Miss, it turned out to be you." Little one never thought of it......"

Lu Jingzhi casually knocked on his head and said, "Idiot, if it weren't for the three arrows of Miss, do you think Sauer would be so easy to dismiss?"

Busen was two or three horses behind and followed His Excellency the Legion Commander, and when he heard these words, he suddenly realized that it was a golden arrow! No wonder it was so easy to fight Sauer, this is the real battle of masters.

Will Sauer be honest after he is captured? What will the Duke of Wensha do to Lu Jingzhi?

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
