Chapter 563: Reinforcements
"It hurts!", General Yuri, who was sitting in the tent at this time, bared his teeth, and carefully took out a black iron thorn badge from his bosom, which Al had given him before leaving, and he kept it carefully as a token.
But it was precisely because of the personal collection that he was just copied by the edges and corners of this little thing.
General Yuri carefully rubbed the badge in his hand, it was such a swarthy, even inconspicuous little thing, how many people were worth their lives in exchange! How many sacrifices the Edward family had paid in order to make it have such value in the world.
General Yuri knew in his heart that Al had given him this badge not only as a token, but also as a promise to him.
"But this badge is rough enough. He pinched the edges and corners of the badge again, and the roughness and tingling sensation from his fingertips made him think that he was still holding an unpolished piece of rough iron. In a trance, he actually reminded him of the time when he was not yet promising, when he was most poor, he relied on mining to make a living, and at that time, he had handled countless ores like this.
This gave him a rare fondness for the Iron Thorn Family, but soon General Yuri threw this goodwill in his heart out of the clouds.
Favoring this feeling, General Yuri has always considered the most useless and superfluous. He thought that he had experienced the world, and that heart had long been polished to be colder and harder than ore.
"It's been three days since Al that guy left, and his so-called reinforcements should have arrived, otherwise he wouldn't be able to catch up with the battle in Shenghui City. He thought silently in his heart.
And General Yuri himself was very curious about the "reinforcements" that Al said, except for the Western Army he brought, where did the reinforcements come from?
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly a hurried and panicked shout came from outside the military tent, "General!
"What's the matter?", General Yuri thought something was wrong, and hurriedly ran out of the military tent, only to see a soldier running out of breath and being stopped outside the military tent panting.
"Why are you so frightened?", General Yuri asked with a stern face.
The soldier gasped and pointed in the direction of the outside of the camp, "General...... Checkmate...... There was an army outside the camp that claimed to be reinforcements from the west. ”
"It's just reinforcements from the West, why are you so frightened?", General Yuri asked, could it be that these big-headed soldiers who licked their blood with knives were so panicked, what was wrong with the reinforcements from the West?
The soldier swallowed, "You...... You can see it, and everyone is stunned. ”
By the time General Yuri arrived at the entrance of the barracks, it was already crowded with onlookers, and he finally knew why the big-headed soldiers were so frightened.
Hundreds of holy, pure white, well-built horses with long silver horns growing on their heads. Sacred and beautiful, it is simply difficult to describe in words.
"Unicorns!", General Yuri groaned inwardly, "If nothing else, ...... will be able to ride them."
When he looked closely, he could see the riders' long ears that were slightly hidden by their long hair, and their beautiful faces, which were enough to cause a sensation in human society.
"It's an elf! It's a legendary elf! And it's here!" , General Yuri groaned again in his heart. He had no choice but to squeeze a smile on his face, "Are you all Al Edward's reinforcements?"
The elves just rode on the unicorn and watched him quietly, without speaking.
"Is it a language barrier? It seems that only those mages know elven language. General Yuri, who had a smile on his face, only felt that his face was about to stiffen with laughter.
"Don't bother, we are indeed reinforcements from Al Edward, the general just needs to order your soldiers to clear the way. ”
Unexpectedly, the only unknown figure in the group of elves wrapped in a cloak answered him, judging by the voice, it should be a woman.
She pulled out an Iron Thorn badge and motioned to General Yuri, "This is our proof. ”
"Of course, of course. General Yuri wiped a cold sweat and hurriedly scolded the soldiers to move the fence and let go of a road. As for the badge, he didn't even look at it.
Anyway, even the legendary elves have appeared, and he really has no reason to doubt these elves.
After sending the elves away, General Yuri left the chattering soldiers behind and returned to the tent with a full stomach full of questions, and began to meditate with a frown.
"I still underestimate the Iron Thorn Family, I didn't expect them to be able to have anything to do with those long ears. ”
"But it doesn't make sense! One of them is in the west and the other is in the south, and they really can't be connected, so how can they get together?"
General Yuri couldn't figure out what he was thinking, he was thinking about it, when suddenly there was a report again, "General, there is another batch of reinforcements from the west outside the camp. ”
"Is it an elf again?"
General Yuri ran out again to look, good fellows! hundreds of mysterious figures in cloaks, tightly obscured. He couldn't even tell what race they were, whether they were male or female, and even their mounts were wrapped in cloth, as if they were afraid that others would see them.
However, General Yuri still thinks that they are not human, and the reason is simple: these mysterious figures sit on mounts with long tails, like cats, how can a horse ridden by a human have such a tail?
As usual, he still didn't speak, and one of them took out the Iron Thorn Badge as a token. However, unlike the elves just now, they asked for some supplies, especially some meat.
"It seems that they are not elves, and legend has it that elves are vegetarians, but who are they? Where did they come from?", General Yuri, who returned to the military tent, couldn't figure it out, he was annoyed, and suddenly a report came from outside the military tent.
"Report to the general, there is another batch of reinforcements from the west outside the camp. ”
"Why are the reinforcements from the West again?", General Yuri was directly startled, "This is still the end." He shouted angrily: "It was an elf before, and it didn't look like a human just now, so isn't this group still a dwarf?"
"Isn't there no human for his reinforcements to the west?!"
"Will ...... General, this batch of reinforcements is indeed human, but ...... It's just ......", the soldier who came to report involuntarily lowered his voice.
"The inscription on their flags and weapons is a cross. ”
"Damn it. General Yuri involuntarily cursed, "Can you have some normal people?"
