027: The Gintama Squad
The cavalry is the king of the plains, and the swordsman is the god of war!
Any class can find an arena on the battlefield that suits them, such as cavalry dominating the plains and scouts dominating the jungle, but the swordsman is the only class that can adapt to any terrain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Powerful explosiveness, no less than the speed of a war horse, and its own armor that is harder than steel, plains, glaciers, dense forests without roads, and even fires wrapped in raging flames, as long as the fighting spirit is good, these ordinary soldiers are completely unable to stand on the ground for them.
And his large base, which far exceeds that of rare mages, also makes him qualified to form an army on his own.
Because of this, swordsmen have always been the mainstay of the human military field, the most feared nightmare of the alien race on the battlefield!
Because of the regular support, although the Rigila Mountains are a little tight, but so far several strategic points are still in the hands of the Empire, and the orcs seem to feel that this bone is too difficult to gnaw after spending a huge price last week and still not taking the Rigila Mountains, and this week has been very stable.
So after leading the army out of Bradit City, Carlos maintained a regular speed and approached the direction of the Reggila Mountains.
The original plan of the military headquarters was that they would arrive in the Rijera Mountains in a week, but on the evening of the third day, a group of messengers arriving from the direction of Rijilla brought bad news.
According to the news from the scouts of the Rigila Mountain Defense Army, two days ago, a large number of orcs suddenly began to gather near Songguo Peak in the northwest of the Rigila Mountains, more than thousands, and this number continues to increase.
Pinecone Peak is located on the main road to the Rijera Mountains, the main access road from the mountains to the north, and because of the wide terrain for attacking, it has become the main direction of attack for the Orcs, and it is also the location of the most tragic fighting in the Riggilla Mountain Theater last week.
It seems that instead of learning the orcs' lesson, the obstruction of the worship had provoked their anger.
But this is in line with the usual bestiality of orcs.
Rough, direct, and completely relying on fists and strength to speak, in the words of the orcs, in the face of the enemy's defense, a hundred orcs can not break through the two hundred, two hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, until the breakthrough is broken.
If they could learn to be obedient with a single punch, humans would find it strange.
"These brainless fools!"
After listening to the scout's report, Carlos sneered and commented.
After all, the Reggila Mountains, as a defense area with not too much flow and still a lot of passes in the rear, even if they are really allowed to fight, it will not have a fatal impact on the current strategic deployment of the empire in the entire Rhine, and no human commander will spend a huge price to bite here.
After taunting the orc's brainlessness, Carlos furrowed his eyebrows again.
Although in the Reggila Defense Zone, even if the Reggila Mountains are lost, the Empire still does not lack a considerable level of strategic value after being postponed, but the Empire does not want to lose any defense line unless it is absolutely necessary.
After all, if every defense zone has such a mentality and retreats when the situation is not good, sooner or later the Empire's defense line will shrink into a dangerous situation.
The last time Reggila invested about 8,000 troops in the orcs, and according to their usual style, this time it was at least doubled, and it was impossible for the current 5,000 defenders of Reggila to defend it.
According to the information obtained by the front-line scouts, with the current speed of the orc troops, this number of troops will be accumulated in two days at the latest, which means that in three days at the latest, the orcs may launch an attack on the Rijla Mountains, and before that, the Carlos army will never reach the Rijilla Mountains.
"The war is urgent, so let's take someone over first, let's go directly to the bottom of the ditch, and when we reach the Riggilla Mountains, I will cooperate with Bernard to launch a few attacks to delay time. ”
Before Carlos could finish thinking, Zax decisively made a proposal.
Don't look at Zax's command with only 300 soldiers, but these 300 are all swordsmen! And the commander of the army is a powerful existence at the level of Sun Flame.
A swordsman corps led by a swordsman of the Sun, as long as it is not a straw bag general, plays no less powerful role on the battlefield than three integrated thousand regiments.
And is Zax a straw bale?
Apparently not!
"Yes, I'll send you four more mages!" Carlos didn't hesitate much, nodded, leaving the winding mountain path along the mountainside, and going directly through the dense forest would be equivalent to walking straight to the Riggilla Mountains, but unfortunately the dense forest valley was dangerous, and the regular army couldn't pass it at all.
After a pause, Carlos curled the corners of his mouth and said, "Don't leave your reputation as a raging dragon here!"
"Hahaha!" Zax looked up and sneered, "Just them?"
After a pause, he turned over and dismounted, opened the military map, drew his long sword, and the blade fell on one of the positions above, and then began to discuss the preliminary strategy of this battle with Carlos: "I will try my best to control the battle in the southwest of Songguo Peak, the generation of Wind Ridge, you take Shitang Town Avenue on the fork in the road in front, and when the time comes, you will directly attack their rear from Maple Leaf Mountain and me..."
After a simple strategic plan, the two sides parted ways, Carlos ordered the march to speed up and lead the army onward, while Zax himself led the army of swordsmen to jump down the nearby hillside and into a wooded ravine.
The cliffs next to the main road are stacked with layers of steep ridges ranging from one to several meters in the form of a ladder, like a multi-layered cake, and continue to the bottom of the ditch is full of moss-covered raised stones and thick trees, at this time in the dry season, the weeds in the valley that are over the knee are thriving in this area of uncivilized activity.
Except for a few elite scouts in the army, no ordinary soldier could easily pass through this kind of steep hill with no road, let alone run at high speed in it.
But for a swordsman, this is too childish.
The strength of the fighting spirit is not only the increase in strength, but the enhancement of the comprehensive quality of human beings!
After tempering the fighting spirit, the five senses of human beings will be improved, whether it is nerve reflexes, bounces, speeds, strikes, blow resistance and other aspects are incomparable with ordinary people.
Because of this, the swordsman will leave the prestige of the god of war on the battlefield!
Jumping onto a raised boulder, Kane's right foot touched the ground, and his figure left an arc in the air, landing again on a thick branch a few meters away, beside his companions, who were also shuttling.
Looking down from the sky, they are like cheetahs with great dexterity, easily navigating through those dangerous places that ordinary people are afraid of.
It was difficult for Kane to run long distances, especially if he was still maintaining a high speed.
However, at this time, it reflected the results of the spur of the devil Zax a few days ago, and he shuttled through the dense forest for four hours in a row in an extremely energy-consuming way, but no one felt exhausted.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Zax with some emotion for a while, and said in their hearts that this bearded man's harsh training seems to be really for everyone's sake, if it weren't for him...
"What do you see? Do you have flowers on Lao Tzu's face? When you take a break for a while, you can continue to practice for Lao Tzu, don't practice running, practice squats!"
Bah!
This scum is purely trying to satisfy his own sadistic desires!
The crowd cursed in their hearts.
It was not until noon that Carlos ordered to rest on the spot, and everyone took out the food from the marching bags they were carrying, and sat down without saying a word.
This scum only gave everyone five minutes to eat!
5 minutes to eat, 10 minutes to 'rest', and the tense rush began to continue again until the sun went down.
After finding a relatively dry ground in a swampy ravine, they set up their tents and rested for the night, and the next morning the team set out again.
However, when crossing a steep slope and jumping off the cliff below with an interval of more than two meters, Zax, who was ahead of him, did not continue to advance, but stopped suddenly, and quickly raised a hand with a serious face and made a defensive gesture.
There seems to be something going on ahead.
