Chapter 69: The Meeting of the Falling Star Lake
Every organization must have a leader, and every line of defense must have a main city.
The main city of Jiulian City is elected by the nine military cities themselves, and once every three years, the method of election is to hunt.
It is said that it will hunt, but it is actually a large-scale competition, and which city has the strongest force is the main city in the next three years.
As an important military line of defense, it is very reasonable and necessary to rank the seats in a fist-sized manner.
Weishan City is located in the very center of the entire lock barbarian nine cities, and it is the most ideal from the geographical point of view, but unfortunately, it has not been the main city for nearly fifty years.
In terms of military strength, Weishan City has never been the strongest of the nine castles.
The Torrent City in the upper four cities in the west, and the Moon Cliff City in the lower four cities in the east, are the two strong men who have long held the title of the main city, the former of the Red Feather Guard, and the latter of the rattan soldiers, are all terrifying warriors that terrify the southern barbarians.
"On September 15, there is still a full month to go. Tell me everything you need to know about hunting, Uncle Darigori. Gao Ge became serious, "This time, we in Weishan City must no longer be a supporting role just to join in the fun." ā
......
"Father, there is Falling Star Lake in front of you. Garcia reined in the snow and pointed with her whip to the blue lake in the distance, which was embedded in the yellow plains, as horizontal as a mirror.
On the shore of Luoxing Lake, tents have been erected, flags are flying, and there are obviously those who have taken the lead.
"Well, I see. Viscount Bose Forman glanced at his daughter, who was dressed in military uniform, and nodded, his eyes full of softness.
But when he turned his head, the softness in his eyes had become as sharp as a knife and axe, and he roared: "Play the banner of Riptide City, give me the spiritual head to fight, don't lose your momentum in front of those turtle cubs in Moon Cliff City." Otherwise, I will flay you alive. ā
He clearly saw that it was the black black moon flag that was flying in that camp, which was the military flag of Moon Cliff City.
Although he was nearly fifty years old, his eyesight was still remarkable, and when he was younger, he was nicknamed "Red-Haired Hawkeye" in the army, and his excellent eyesight was on par with his fiery temper.
It is precisely with his extraordinary eyesight that he became a sharpshooter with every shot, and was born and died for decades, constantly accumulating military merits, and finally became the lord of a city and was named a viscount.
With Boss's order, the red torrent behind him roared.
Five hundred people dressed in red armor and carrying two arrow boxes full of red tail feather arrows, the most elite Red Feather Guard in Riptide City set up a large flag in the blink of an eye, and with a wave in the wind, the red rushing flag with white stripes on a red background, the military flag of Riptide City, was already hunting in the wind.
"Garthea, to take the position of the main city from the hands of Moon Cliff City, the battle will start from now on. Boce narrowed his eyes slightly, but he couldn't hide the eagle-like sharpness in them.
"Father, this time, we are determined to win Riptide City. Garcia stabbed her horse and drank in high spirits.
She was dressed in a military uniform, but she did not wear a helmet, and her long flaming red hair was braided into a thick braid, which matched her dazzling and gorgeous face, which was as dazzling as fire.
Five hundred Akabane Guards, all of them followed this flame, this blazing flower of Riptide City, with burning and awe-inspiring eyes.
When the red torrent surged towards the Falling Star Lake, on the horizon, one east and one west, two more troops vaguely appeared, and in the autumn wind, there was a long sound of a horn.
On the shore of Luoxing Lake, a moment of wind and clouds.
......
When Gao Ge led all his family resources and two companies of Weishan City's standing army arrived at Luoxing Lake, he knew that he was the last to arrive this way.
The Nine Route troops each occupied a piece of land and formed a camp, and the nine camps were adjacent to each other, forming a huge circular camp.
There is still a small vacancy left on this circular camp, the most low-lying terrain and the most narrow area, which is the territory reserved for Weishan City.
Let's be smaller, and with an order, the Weishan army began to camp in an orderly manner.
No one came to visit Gao Ge, and for the other eight city lords, Gao Ge was a complete stranger, and he had no friendship at all, and his strength was the weakest, so it seemed natural that he didn't need to take the initiative to show goodwill.
But to their surprise, this little baron didn't take the initiative to visit the seniors at all, and there was no movement for a long time.
Some people just can't sit still.
At the scene of the camp, some groups of idle soldiers began to appear, hugging their shoulders.
"Look, digging a ditch and piling up dirt is very neat!" a big fat man with a red face pointed to the soldiers of Weishan City, who were busy with their work, and laughed loudly.
"Yes, I heard that they are best at cultivating wasteland, maybe they see that the land on the edge of Luoxing Lake is so fat, and they also want to open a few fields here to grow food!" A thin man beside the big fat man with a bit of a tower on his back laughed sharply.
One is fat and one is thin, one sings and one harmonizes, just like talking about cross talk.
"Farmer, you're in the wrong place!"
"Go back to Weishan City and dig the earth!"
......
There was laughter and whistles all around.
Although the work in the hands of the soldiers of Weishan City did not stop, the flames of anger began to burn more and more in their eyes, but no one acted rashly, but intentionally or unintentionally turned their eyes to the young figure who was sweating shirtless like them.
In the wave after wave, full of insults and ridicule, this young figure finally straightened up, looked around, and then said lightly: "The honor of the Weishan Army cannot be tarnished for no reason, whoever dares to defile it is the enemy." ā
As soon as the words fell, the soldiers of the Weishan Army, who were already furious, roared one after another and met the provocateurs around them.
A stout and strong figure came out of the crowd, his eyes were wide with anger, his halberd pointed like a gun, pointing directly at the nose of the big fat man, and shouted: "I, the former golden griffin sergeant, and now the commander of the first company of the Weishan Army, Han Sijia, will launch a life-and-death duel against you, report your name!"
Another tall and vigorous figure jumped out after him, stepped in front of the thin man in a few steps, looked at him with a serpent-like gaze, and said coldly: "I, the former Golden Griffin Sergeant, and now the commander of the second company of the Weishan Army, Hidesen, will launch a life-and-death duel against you, report your name!"
"Me!"
"And me!"
......
There were constantly soldiers in the Weishan army who jumped out to meet the provocateurs who had long been unhappy, and they proposed a life-and-death duel.
At this moment, the provocateurs, who were originally very lively, suddenly became dumbfounded, and only looked at each other.
These people who were selected to pick quarrels and provoke troubles are not particularly good men, but they are especially capable of shaking their tongues and making noise.
Because, the purpose of sending them here is to humiliate the ignorant Weishan Army and their city lord, as long as they can scold, as for the other party will use force, it is something that I didn't even think about, how dare you?
But now, Weishan City really dared, not only dared, but also forced each other to a life-and-death duel, according to the rules of the army, once the other party proposed a life-and-death duel, either stand up and fight, or admit it in a very humiliating way, and must not be ignored or avoided.
The ladies and gentlemen immediately made their choice, and they confessed.
No wonder they, they were preconceived, I heard that the soldiers in Weishan City were all composed of fleeing peasants, so they were quite unscrupulous.
But when the angry Weishan soldiers stood in front of them, they were shocked to find that these legendary peasants were all tall and strong, with fierce and fierce eyes, and they had the slightest cowardice of farmers.
In a duel with such an opponent, not only is there no certainty of winning at all, but also, for such a trivial matter, you will fight a life-and-death duel without a word, and risk losing your life, which is too cost-effective!
Not in the same way as these big bosses, the provocateurs quickly found a reason for themselves to back down.
"Huh...... Hehe, IāI'm joking!" the big fat man smiled dryly, and the fat on his face was about to twitch with laughter.
"yes! joking, kidding, absolutely!" the thin man nodded repeatedly.
"I don't think you're joking, hurry up and do it, today is either you dead or I live. Hansjia shouted loudly, like thunder.
"It's okay if you don't dare to fight, then follow the rules!" Haydenson looked the opponent in front of him up and down with a malicious gaze, and saw that the opponent was chilled all over.
"Yes, either you don't die, or you follow the rules!"
"Hurry up and decide, grandpa still has to work!"
The soldiers of the Weishan Army clamored one after another.
"Plop!"
After a short stalemate, the thin man, who had already been seen by Hydenson to be hairy, weakened his knees, fell to his knees, and said with a trembling rope: "Little Aquitaine, I dare not fight with a good man, from today onwards, whenever I meet a good man, I will meet him on my knees." ā
Then he fell to the ground was the big fat man, and now he still has the majesty of "such a peasant, I can fight five of them" that he boasted about before, and he wailed repeatedly: "My lord, I'm just a guy, treat me as a fart, let me go!"
The power of example is endless, and then the sound of "plopping" continues, and all those who shouted fiercely just now, and were forced by the soldiers of the Weishan Army to fight to the death, all knelt down and confessed.
"Get out! When you see grandpa in the future, remember to stay out of the way. Hansijia kicked over the big fat man who was kneeling in front of him, and shouted disdainfully.
Like a prisoner who has been granted amnesty, the big fat man crawled on the ground and turned around and ran, followed by dozens of provocateurs, like a pack of lost dogs.
The sound of laughter shook the entire Nine Cities camp, but now the laughter and the laughed ones were replaced one by one.
"Lord Castle, won't we offend people by doing this?" Zoranama was a little uneasy.
"We don't take the initiative to offend people, but if others come to offend us first, then we don't want to be rude. If you are offended, you are offended!" Gao Ge waved his hand, not caring.
"Won't that affect our relationship with the other cities?" said Zoranama euphemistically.
"We're not here to have a relationship with them this time, we're here to compete with them for the position of the main city. Until the position of the main city is clear, we are first and foremost an adversary, not an ally. If you want to engage in relationships, you must wait for the location of the main city to be determined, and everyone will do it after everyone has arranged their seats. Otherwise, with our current strength in their minds, we will only make them feel that we are currying favor with them. Remember, to please and never get real friends. "Singing the right way.
"The subordinates remembered. Zoranama was convinced.
"Pass the order down, after the camp is set up, no matter who dares to step into my camp without permission, die!" Gao Ge said coldly.
