Chapter 121: Delaying the Pursuers (1)
"Woo......".
A heavy trumpet sounded outside the city of Eyre, and a flag struck in the wind.
Below the banner were eight hundred-person phalanx, and the aura of slaughter quietly spread, making people breathe.
The one at the head was none other than Danton, riding on a war horse, and the slightest fighting spirit flashed on his body.
Denton looked ahead with a majestic face, then stretched out his hand and shouted, "We should have been in Fort Guton, where we should have fought freely with Kochi County, but we didn't want to let us abandon our battlefield because of the refugees in front of us."
"This damn refugee has made us give up our low-hanging glory and waste this great opportunity." Denton shouted ahead.
Hearing these words, a trace of anger began to brew in the hearts of the eight hundred trainee soldiers.
Feeling this breath, Denton's voice was mixed with anger: "So all these sins should be borne by them."
"It is time for you to show your wrath and make them tremble under the hooves of our horses." Denton yelled ahead.
Behind him, a row of generals on war horses shouted in unison: "Kill."
"Kill". The sound spread, and the phalanx of eight trainee warriors shouted in unison.
The aura of slaughter made the surroundings quiet, as if even breathing had stopped for a few moments.
Sensing that the fire had arrived, Denton raised a hand and yelled at the front: "Kill".
As soon as the words fell, he slapped his horse heavily, and galloped forward with the phalanx of eight trainee warriors behind him.
The rapid movement of the flag made the aura of slaughter a little stronger.
......
There was a sound of footsteps in the woods, and countless eyes stared at the official road in the middle.
An old man put his ear to the ground and felt the information coming from the earth, and then his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he hurriedly got up and ran towards Mondstadt behind him: "There is a sound ahead, and I guess there is a large number of cavalry galloping here."
"A large number of cavalry?". Mondstadt gradually fell into contemplation, and thanks to the gift of the Lord God of Light, he made himself the leader of the ascetics. At the same time, it also gave the ascetic different talents, so he had a certain confidence to intercept the soldiers and horses of El City in the woods.
Besides, he still has a hundred people left behind at this time, and they are collecting dead branches and leaves in the camp, so it will take some time.
After a little consideration, he looked ahead and said to the old man, "Keep exploring."
"Yes". The old man replied loudly to Mondstadt.
As the old man departed, Mondstadt's gaze deepened.
Subconsciously spread his hand to catch a floating leaf, his eyes moved to the leaf, and his thoughts couldn't help but fly far away. I don't know how the camp in the rear is prepared.
Hopefully, this fire can burn back the soldiers and horses of El City. It's just that as for the soldiers and horses behind, then you have to think about the rest of the ways.
Thinking of this, he quickly suppressed the sense of urgency in his heart, and then said no more.
A short time later, the old man came running again and replied loudly to Mondstadt: "Ten miles away, eight phalanxes are galloping towards this place."
"I can feel the fluctuations in their fighting spirit, it should be a trainee fighter." The old man spoke slowly to Mondstadt, his tone a little hurried.
Mondstadt's heart tightened, but as the leader, he couldn't show it, so he nodded to the old man, "Tell them it's time to gather and work."
"Yes". The old man replied loudly to Mondstadt.
A ray of light gradually spread around the body, and figures appeared among the surrounding trees and grass. Roughly calculated, there are exactly more than 200 people.
These two hundred ascetics are also the main force to deal with the soldiers and horses of El City in front.
Hundreds of eyes looked ahead in unison, revealing a decisive light one by one.
Mondstadt didn't say much, just raised his hand, and then lowered it heavily.
The two hundred ascetics immediately understood, nodded secretly, and walked quickly to the left and right.
Seeing that everyone had hidden in the woods on either side of the road, Mondstadt smiled with satisfaction.
Ropes showed shallow traces, and then the leaves drifted in to hide them.
"Pedal Pedal Tread".
The sound of horses' hooves was heard, and a torrent rolled in.
Looking ahead, Mondstadt stood in the woods and took a deep breath. I saw that the eight hundred-person phalanx in front of me appeared, and the shape was menacing.
A frown furrowed as Mondstadt silently calculated the distance and turned his gaze in one direction.
The dozens of ascetics standing in that direction reached out and pulled the rope in their hands as if they had received an order.
The ropes that were buried in the ground were revealed.
"Boom".
There was a loud bang, and the person in front turned on his horse, and the trainee soldier behind rode over on a war horse, trampling the person who fell to the ground in front and seriously injuring him. If it weren't for the Dou Qi Protector, I'm afraid there would have been casualties at this time.
Faced with the sudden change, Denton pulled the reins in his hand, and the horse that sat down immediately stopped its hooves.
The trainee soldiers behind him also stopped in a hurry, and only stopped completely after a while.
The trainee soldiers who fell to the ground reacted from their confusion one by one, wanting to get angry but not knowing how to attack, so they could only bury these anger in their hearts.
Denton frowned, his eyes looking around, a faint hint of foreboding in his mind.
"You are guilty of sinning, and you dare to offend the land of our lord." Voices came from the woods on the left and right, and then from all directions.
Hearing this, Denton and the eight hundred trainee warriors sank.
"Who is it? so sneaky." Denton yelled at the Quartet.
The eight hundred trainee warriors showed vigilant eyes at the same time, and instinctively put the heavy sword in their hands on the heavy sword behind them.
Denton's gaze fell on the generals on the left and right, two of whom nodded at Denton. With a wave of his hand, he took two hundred people in a phalanx, and strode forward with heavy footsteps.
Looking at the approaching footsteps, the ascetics hiding in the woods on both sides were silently on guard. Look for the fleeting fighter plane, then unleash a thunderous strike.
"Kill".
I don't know who shouted, and the two trainee hundred-person phalanx sped up in front of them.
Countless fighting spirits surged above the heavy sword, and two hundred trainee warriors slaughtered them under the leadership of their respective generals.
All of a sudden, the sound of drawing swords resounded in the sky, and the giant trees broke in response. But none of the men who laid the ropes were found.
Then the anger in the hearts of the trainee soldiers increased, and they vowed to find the hiding rat.
