Chapter 107: Bridge Guard
Count Wei Lun sank his face, pondered for a moment, rode out of the crowd, looked at Xu Yi condescendingly, and said in a deep voice: "What? President Xu, after seeing my army, was you scared, and are you willing to accept my conditions?"
Xu Yi smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "No, I'm just here to advise Lord Earl." We had been working together very happily before, and there was no need for you to take the initiative to ruin the good relationship between us. If you retire now, I can assume that this has not happened, and we can continue to work together happily. ”
"Hmph!" snorted heavily, Count Veron. "Happy to continue to cooperate?In order to obtain military magic machinery from your Chamber of Commerce, I will quickly give you all the most important resources in the territory to your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. If you continue to cooperate, are you going to swallow all my territory?"
Xu Yi looked at Count Wei Lun in surprise, thinking that this lord's posture of biting back was very full.
Obviously, he was too greedy and wanted to swallow the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in one bite, but now he said that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce planned to swallow his territory.
Of course...... Seriously, Xu Yi is not without this idea......
"Lord Lord, I am a merchant, the cooperation between us is normal business cooperation, if you provide us with enough gold coins, or all kinds of resources we need, then we will naturally provide you with all kinds of military magic machinery you need. In any case, in your defeat of Count Fran and the other lords, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been of great help to you, right?"
Count Veron snorted coldly, but he didn't deny it.
This is a fact that everyone knows, and it is a denial of it. On the contrary, he seems to be too inferior.
"Alright. Don't go with me for these words. I'll just ask you one question. Would you like to accede to my request?" asked Count Veron in a cold voice.
Xu Yi shook his head slowly: "Lord Earl, I just said that I am a businessman. For merchants, commercial trade is the fairest trade, and if you force a difference, it would be against the principles of being a businessman, so I can't agree to it. ”
Count Velun snorted coldly again, "Do you dare to say that you don't treat you differently? When you supply Her Royal Highness King Sevigny of the Lampari Kingdom with all kinds of military magic machines, you are very different from others. ”
Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders: "I think you should know very well that Her Royal Highness Princess Severny is indeed different from others. What's more, she's my friend. ”
"Friend?" the Count of Willon scoffed, "It's ridiculous!
Xu Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Although he himself felt that once Sevini became the most noble queen of the Lampari Kingdom, it would be difficult for the two to maintain the friendship that was still pure before, but this kind of words from the mouth of Count Veron inevitably seemed too harsh.
"Okay, Lord Earl, it seems that you won't be retiring today?" Xu Yi asked.
"Nonsense!" Count Wei Lun raised the long sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Xu Yi: "Since I have already led the army, I have come." Why don't you surrender obediently? I sue you, if you are willing to surrender. I can also leave you a suitable spot. If not...... Hehe, don't blame me for being rude. ”
Xu Yi's gaze swept over the 10,000 subordinates behind Count Wei Lun in different shapes, and the formation was not neat at all, and the clothes were a little scattered, and the subordinates who looked like a ragtag army swept by, smiled, spread his hands and said: "Since Lord Earl refuses to retreat, I also refuse to retreat, so Lord Earl ...... Let's see you again after the battle. That long assumes that you're still alive by then. ”
Count Weilun's face changed, and he shouted: "Since you are here, do you still want to leave?
With Count Veron's order, a crossbow squad of five hundred crossbowmen behind him raised the magic repeater in their hands and pressed the switch of the magic repeater.
"Whoosh Whoosh ......"
The sound of countless feather arrows breaking through the air sounded, and the sky in front of Xu Yi was completely covered with dense feather arrows in just a blink of an eye, looking simply overwhelming, and the momentum was extremely amazing.
Seeing that these feather arrows were actually mixed with countless lights representing the magic array flickering, Xu Yi couldn't help but smile.
It's just to deal with him alone, and Count Weilun actually used a magic arrow that costs a full three gold coins, which is really enough to look up to him.
This overwhelming rain of arrows, if you roughly estimate it, the cost is probably close to a thousand gold coins.
No wonder Count Wei Lun always complained to Xu Yi that fighting was too expensive to fight, and that the military magic machinery of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was too expensive.
It's strange to spend less on a usage like his.
Seeing the rain of arrows covering the entire sky overhead, Xu Yi raised his hand, and a light blue magic cover completely wrapped him.
Those ordinary arrows shot at this magic cover, but they didn't cause any reaction at all, and they all softened weakly, and then slipped from the outside of the magic cover to the ground.
And those magic arrows, which were much more powerful, swayed on the magic cover with subtle ripples like water waves, and then the light disappeared completely, falling down like ordinary arrows.
Just between breaths, piles of arrows piled up on the ground around Xu Yi, but none of them could enter the range of his magic shroud.
Seeing Xu Yi's relaxed appearance, Count Wei Lun thought about it with a gloomy face, and raised his hand to stop the crossbow team from continuing to shoot.
Although, according to the number provided by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it means that relying on the terrifying power of the magic repeater alone is enough to defeat a high-level magician.
But after all, this is the number given by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and it is not certain whether there is adulteration or not.
Moreover, these magic repeaters are something developed and produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and Xu Yi, the president, may have some special methods to deal with these things.
Seeing that the other party stopped shooting and continued to shoot, Xu Yichong raised his hand at Lord Weilun, turned around and flew back.
looked at Xu Yi's figure in mid-air. Count Veron gritted his teeth hard. Only then did he resist the urge to order the crossbow team to shoot him out of the air.
There is no point in wasting these things on Xu Yi. As long as he successfully invades Xu Yi's private territory and occupies it, then no matter how strong Xu Yi's magic strength is, he is only one person after all, and it will not affect the overall situation.
Even with the addition of the terrifying existence of Grand Magician Camilla, it is still impossible to change the entire situation with the strength of a few people.
In judging this point, Count Veron has great confidence in himself.
However, the thought had just flashed through his mind when he suddenly heard a muffled sound from across the river bank that sounded like a bowstring. Suddenly made his face change greatly.
"Oh no! It's a magic trebuchet!
As soon as Count Veron raised his head and shouted, he saw a huge fireball in the sky on the other side of the river instantly piercing the wide sky on the river bank at a super high speed and falling into the army behind Count Veron.
"Boom-"
With a deafening explosion, the fireball exploded violently in the large army formation, scattering into countless small fireballs of various sizes.
These fireballs slammed into Count Veron's men, instantly setting them on fire all over their bodies, turning them into burning men.
And some people and soldiers were even directly hit by these fireballs, which shows how terrifying the momentum carried by this fireball is.
Just this one fireball fell and instantly made at least a hundred soldiers incapacitated.
See the chaos behind you. Count Veron was furious.
"This damn Xu Yi really hid the best things!"
However, no amount of anger at this time will help. After the first fireball exploded, there were countless muffled noises on the other side of the river, each of which made Count Veron's heart tremble, and at the same time brought a huge fireball.
Countless fireballs smashed into the ranks of Count Wilun's men as swiftly as meteorites, and countless loud explosions rang out across the banks of the Abdant River.
The tens of thousands of soldiers who were still in a posture behind Count Weilun just now, looking majestic and high-spirited, were instantly smashed into chaos by these terrifying fireballs, and suffered heavy casualties.
"Fuck it! Rush forward! Rush to the bridge! Don't retreat! Whoever retreats will die!" Count Veron drew his long sword, cut off the head of one of his subordinates who was about to flee backwards because of fear, and shouted: "The first one to cross the bridge and reach the other side will be rewarded with five hundred gold coins!"
Perhaps because of the excitement of the high gold reward, or perhaps because of the fear and persecution in their hearts, the subordinates of Count Weilun did not care about any formation at this time, and rushed towards the bridge of the Abdant River, which was the only thing.
There were even quite a few soldiers who simply jumped into the river, intending to swim directly from this end to the other side.
However, as soon as the first batch of soldiers boarded the bridge, they saw three rows of guards standing on the bridge on the other side of the bridge, wearing the uniform uniforms of the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, each holding a thick cylindrical object, aimed at this side.
From a distance, I heard a low shout from the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on the opposite side, and then I saw that the cylinders in the hands of those guards emitted a single pale cyan magical light.
A moment later, countless arrows shot out of the cylinder.
The appearance of these feather arrows is obviously much shorter than ordinary feather arrows, but the speed of shooting is indeed extremely fast, and the penetrating power of these feather arrows is extremely strong, and the various leather armor and even real armor worn by Count Weilun's subordinates are like paper paste, and they are lightly pierced by these feather arrows.
Some of the feathered arrows even pierced the chest of one of the soldiers in front of them, and could once again pierce the chest of another soldier in the back.
Just one arrow took the lives of two soldiers.
Although the number of guards of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce guarding the bridge was not large, the feather arrows shot from the cylinders in their hands were extremely fast, and much denser than ordinary magic repeaters, and they were divided into three groups, the first batch shot all the feather arrows in the cylinder, and the second group immediately followed, shooting wildly again.
By the time the third batch had also been fired, the first batch of crossbowmen had been reloaded and could go into battle again without interruption.
So from the moment the first soldier under Count Willen boarded the bridge, the feathered arrows on the other side of the bridge did not stop at all.
Under such a terrifying and dense rain of arrows, Count Weilun's subordinates rushed to the bridge in batches, but they fell down one by one.
In just a few moments, the bridgehead was already full of soldiers' corpses, and the distance they advanced was not even twenty meters.
"My lord, we ...... Retreat, right?" said the cronie who was standing beside Count Veron turned his head to look at him with a look of horror.
Count Veron's face was cloudy, and he wanted to give up, but he was extremely unwilling.
Naturally, his cronies could see the hesitation in his heart, and he persuaded him: "My lord, we are only temporarily retreating. This new flyer will not be able to jump out of our control. We can't get in, but they don't want to get out. As long as we block their way out, with such a small place as them, there is nothing to supply, and sooner or later they will surrender voluntarily. ”
Earl Veron's face softened slightly, and after thinking about it, he felt that what his cronies said was very reasonable.
Looking up at the other side of the river, which was still calm, as if he had no idea what was going on here, Count Veron snorted heavily and waved his hand.
"Retreat!" (to be continued......)
