Hodge and Layton split up at the entrance of the mountain path and led their respective teams along different mountain paths, from which Leiden would break directly into the back city of Van Bia, and attack at dawn when the city gate first opened, while Hodge would have to take a detour further to the west gate of Uhe.

Fifty horsemen galloped behind Hodge, Antler Bay is a small seaside town without its own horse farm, which is a great disadvantage compared to inland cities, but thanks to the small number of soldiers, it allows each soldier to get a war horse, and the mobility is much stronger than the garrisons of other cities.

The trail was not remote, and passers-by could often be bumped into, and the fifty well-armed soldiers were eye-catching, but Hodge did not hide the group's whereabouts.

In this era, the speed of information transmission mainly relied on birds as messengers, and even if they were bumped into by these farmers on the road, by the time someone actually used pigeons to deliver the letter to Wuhe City, he would have already occupied the city.

Fifty people attacked 1,500 garrisons, and the six-meter-high earthen city wall relied on Wuhe looked like an egg hitting a stone, but Hodge's confidence was that he didn't want to fight head-on at all, and he didn't think about completely annihilating Wuhe's garrison, just by launching a surprise attack, he would be able to include Wuhe in his sphere of influence if the Wuhe City garrison lost its fighting spirit in a short period of time.

There are two things that can have a deterrent effect in a short period of time, the first is the bronze dragon crossbow arrow, the ontology structure of this hand crossbow has evolved in several versions, and it has been perfected to a certain extent, and it fits quite well with the bronze dragon arrow.

This arrow is an important product of the third stage of Borch's plan, combining part of the power of Daphne's instinctive talent, melting it into a special metal, when the arrow is squeezed by an external force, it will break in an instant, and the surrounding space will be slightly compressed, and then the fire element contained in the metal will explode in a limited space, and the killing effect that can be achieved is huge.

It can be said that this kind of crossbow arrow is several times stronger than the conventional firearm power that has not yet appeared, and at present, the bronze dragon crossbow arrow has not appeared in any battle, except for Antler Bay, no one will know the existence of this weapon, and the asymmetry of information can make this already terrifying weapon to a higher level of lethality.

Then there's the wizard's power, and Hera's natural abilities are best suited for large-scale combat.

Hodge and Hera were at the head of the line, and in addition to their position as leaders, there were other factors involved, such as the soldiers in Antler Bay were loaded with more than ten kilograms of light armor, while he and Hera were only wearing warm jackets.

Now that the weather has warmed up, even the north has rarely ushered in spring, Hera's jacket is relatively light, close to her body, and when she straddles the saddle, her body curves are outlined, and a pair of full and tight long legs step on the stirrup, moving forward in an orderly manner.

Hodge looked up at the sky, it was almost dusk, and the march after night would be dangerous, but in exchange for arriving at the city of Wuhe before dawn tomorrow.

The sun had completely set, and the pedestrians on the mountain road were no longer visible, except for the sound of horses' hooves kicking, the sound of swaying grass began to appear.

In the dark jungle, the unequaled dark green, as if ignited eyes, appeared and stared closely at the speeding procession, and the heavy gasps of the beasts sounded like a heavy drum in the ears of the people in the ranks, always pulling the beating of the heart.

"Don't look back. ”

Hodge kept his face calm and shouted loudly to the team behind him, the formation of the team must not be chaotic at this moment, as the leader of the team, he has the responsibility to keep everyone in the team awake and not let them be swallowed by fear, thus disrupting the march of the team.

Roar! Roar!

Countless roars rang out, and several black shadows burst out of the jungle on both sides, and their hairs could be seen in the bright moonlight, each of which stood up like a pinprick, and the blood would surely flow when pierced into the body.

The most terrifying demon in the jungle, there are enough ghost wolves to make teams of witchers helpless, this monster is extremely aggressive, and will not stop attacking because of the death of its companions, and stepping into an area where ghost wolves gather at night is no different from death.

The eyes of each soldier under the armor were wide, their minds were full of ominous signs, fear made it difficult for them to even breathe, the only consolation was Hodge, the leader of the front, his back was still strong, this usurper of Antler Bay had made an unimaginable contribution to the development of Antler Bay, he was a trustworthy man, as long as he had not fallen, the soldier could still maintain the last shred of confidence.

The ghost wolf soared in mid-air, baring its teeth and claws and pounced on the team, people can fight fear with will, but horses cannot, even trained war horses startled several horses, neighed and did not gnaw before moving forward.

"Hera!" Hodge yelled.

At the same time as the voice sounded, Hera opened her mouth with great tacit understanding, squeezing thin syllables out of her throat, she still could not speak, but she was able to speak, unlike the violent and sharp tone when she released the storm of sound blades, at this time her voice was as soft as water, and a faint ripple vibrated in the air, covering the entire team of fifty people, and the fear in the hearts of the horses and soldiers was offset by the soft voice, and the startled horse stepped on its hooves again.

But that's not enough.

The ghost wolf kept rushing towards the team, and if they didn't completely move away, soon the team would be damaged, and the bronze dragon crossbow arrows were given priority to Leiden's team, and the number they carried at this time was not much, so they were used to deal with the ghost wolf now, and there would be a shortage of crossbow arrows when attacking Uhe.

"Stop, stop, ears!" Hodge first plugged his ears with a wooden cork, and then blocked the ears of the warhorse under him with his index finger.

Fifty soldiers were also prepared, and they followed Hodge's example.

Hera simply covered the horse's ears with her hands, coughed lightly and blushed, a sharp trill spurting out of her mouth.

Buzz!

The roaring ghost wolves suddenly froze, the dark green flames burning in their eyes shook violently, their bundled hairs began to tremble irregularly, and countless tiny turquoise meridians could be seen from the bare skin on their necks suddenly erupting from the skin.

They let out a painful roar, but they couldn't make even the slightest movement, and within the range of Hera's shrill voice, they were completely stripped of their mobility, and they could only feel the sluggish flow of blood and the ringing in their ears.

By the time they were released from this state, Hodge and the others had already driven out of the jungle.

"Woo!"

The ghost wolf hissed under the moon, venting his anger and fear.

Dawn.

The west gate of Wuhe City slowly opened, the guards yawned, and the procession of vendors preparing to enter the city lined up on the ramp outside the city, waiting to be reviewed by the guards.

No sooner had the guards beckoned the front line to enter than they saw a commotion at the end of the procession entering the city, and dust and smoke rising at the end of the procession.

"Who dares to make trouble in front of the city gates, and don't want to enter the city?

The commotion continued, and the sound of horses' hooves trampling became more and more pronounced amid the shouts and curses of the vendors.

"Something doesn't seem right. ”

Another guard saw something unusual, such a dense tapping sound did not look like an ordinary caravan, and he stood on the stone next to him, looking at the team on the ramp, and in the center, dozens of fully armored cavalry were rapidly charging.

"No, that's not the armor of our city!"

The guard's face turned pale in an instant, and he shouted behind him: "Enemy attack! Close the city gate and prepare for battle!"

Fluttering.

The machine began to move, and the heavy solid wood gate slowly fell.

The guards at the gates lined up with spears and nervously watched the approaching procession of Antler Bay.

Hodchitima was the first to rush out, not afraid of the cold spear, his fingers were slightly flexed, and the dazzling light burst out from between his fingers, and the eyes of the soldiers of Wuhe City were instantly strongly stimulated, and their bodies put down the spear uncontrollably, covering their painful eyes with their hands.

Bang Bang Bang!

The horses ran over several of the guards, and the following teams did the same, and the guards became bloody mud stuck to the road under the pressure of the horses' hooves.

The giant wooden gate had been completely closed, and Uhe City reacted faster than expected, but fortunately it was a wooden gate, and Hera took the horse forward and snapped her fingers.

The human ear did not hear any fierce sound, but the sound of Hera's fingers resonated with the wood of the city gate accurately, and soon countless cracks were listed on the huge wooden door, and the sawdust trembled and flew out of the cracks, piled up on the road, and then a more deafening loud noise appeared, and the cavalry retreated a distance, and the city gate cracked into countless pieces with a bang, and behind the open city gate were lined up the Wuhe army that had not yet stood firm, and they looked at the fifty people outside the city gate in a daze, no matter what, they did not expect the city gate to be broken in an instant.

Hodge raised his hand, and the cavalry behind him raised their bronze dragon hand crossbows, skillfully pulled out the brackets, put on the crossbow arrows, aimed at the rear of the Wuhe team, and fired a long-range shot.

The violent explosion was accompanied by fire and black smoke, and the rear of the Uhe army was in chaos, and the precept officer shouted but to no avail.

"I'm Sir Hodge from Antler Bay. ”

Hodge cleared his throat and said loudly to the opposite team: "Time is precious, I won't go into too much detail, surrender or die, choose one, I suggest you choose the former." ”

A team of fifty people is so insignificant in front of more than a thousand people, even ridiculous.

But there was no sound of ridicule in the Wuhe army, and the shock caused by the previous wave of bronze dragon crossbow arrows had not yet eased from it.

"You're delusional!" roared a near-broken man's voice from an old man with red hair.

Hodge looked at him, "Baron Lourdes, you have the right to make decisions on behalf of Uhe, and your decisions can avoid the bloodshed of your soldiers." ”

"You have broken the convention of attacking and defending the city!you scoundrel!scum!scum!" Old Man Ludd was so angry that his beard fluttered up, and he waved his arms on horseback.

"Convention?"

Hodge chuckled, "How old are you?"

He turned serious and nodded at Hera.

The Storm of Sound Blades appeared in the middle of the field, rolling up countless pieces of flesh.

In the face of extraordinary power, ordinary human force seems vulnerable.
