Volume 10 The First Battle Victory Chapter 274 Tactics
Chapter 274: Tactics
The Taihang Mountains, rolling and undulating, seem to be endless.
Dozens of miles to the west of it is the city of Mingjiao, the stronghold of the Caesar people.
Bancroft led the army, along the mountains, slowly forward. On the left side of the army, you can faintly see the Taihang Mountains that are like the ups and downs, advancing layer by layer, stretching endlessly, and the emerald green color of the mountains reflects each other, forming a natural scene.
"General......
A loud roar interrupted his train of thought, and he withdrew his eyes from the scenery around him and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"There are three horsemen in front of who claim to be Han envoys and ask to see the general."
Bancroft looked up in surprise and looked ahead, but the road was quite far away, and there were figures in front of him, and he couldn't see anything.
"Bring them in." Bancroft's narrow, thin eyes shone with a palpitating light, and he commanded softly.
"Yes......"
A moment later, sure enough, three people came slowly under the watchful eye.
Caesar was tall and tall, and Bancroft's personal soldiers were even more proficient. At this time, without waiting for orders, they all cheered up, their eyes were wide open, and suddenly a wave of murderous aura spread in the field, and those who were slightly inferior in courage were all frightened.
However, the three people in front of him were calm and composed, ignoring the fierce murderous aura that rose to the sky. They traveled all the way to Bancroft's side.
In the middle was a man, young and handsome, with a dignified appearance, and the straight bridge of his nose made him look particularly energetic, and Bancroft's brow furrowed, and he only felt that the person in front of him was somewhat familiar, but he was sure that he had never seen it.
Beside him are two old men in gray, the one on the left, his face is like black charcoal, he is tall, and the one on the right has a special hair, but it is impossible to tell the age.
Bancroft's gaze swept over the faces of the three men, and somehow, there was a faint sense of danger in his heart. He was not a master of the Grandmaster level, so naturally he could not comprehend the early warning ability of spiritual power. However, years of birth and death have given him an extraordinary sense of crisis.
He had already made up his mind that these three people seemed to be no threat at this time, but they were definitely not to be underestimated.
Suddenly, a tall figure approached his side, and Bancroft turned his head to look, and his face suddenly changed slightly.
That man turned out to be Lord Harry, the deputy head of the Knights Templar.
At this time, Harry stared at the three men with a solemn face, however, the sharp-eyed Bancroft found that his attention was completely focused on one person. It's the iron-faced old man with a face like black charcoal.
Bancroft's heart sank, and he immediately knew that this well-informed and experienced old man also sensed that something was wrong, and this person was definitely not trivial, otherwise he would not have been able to make this old man who had reached the top of the first grade so cautious as early as twenty years.
"Who are you?" Taking a deep breath, Bancroft asked in a deep voice.
His hand behind his back made a strange gesture, and the face of a personal soldier beside him changed slightly, but he had followed the general for many years, so he naturally knew what it meant. Immediately retreated silently.
After a few moments, the whole army tensed up, and there was no more noise. Because, the general they admired actually gave the order of first-class alert at this time.
Another old man with long beard and hair slowly opened his slightly closed eyes at this time, as if intentionally, if unintentionally, he glanced at the group of people who were gradually becoming more and more solemn, and there was a trace of disdain mockery at the corner of his mouth, as if he had never put these elite people in his eyes.
"In the Xia Lin family emblem." The young man in the middle said loudly, his tone high and powerful, spreading far and wide, eye-catching.
Bancroft's brows frowned innorantly, he seemed to be vulgar, but in fact he had always been cautious, and before he reached the Great Han, he had already memorized the names of famous people such as Xu and Fang, and even looked at their portraits no less than ten times.
Since he can come on behalf of the Han people, his status must not be low, and judging from his performance, he is by no means a simple person. It's just that why his name is so unfamiliar and I have never heard of it.
"So these two are ......," the old man Harry on the side asked suddenly.
"These two are the guards below, and they are smiling." The young man bowed his hand without humility or arrogance, but he did not answer his question.
Bancroft and Harry raised their eyebrows at the same time, not believing a word of his words. Wouldn't it be a man who could not see the depth of the person to act as a guard, wouldn't it be telling nonsense with his eyes open?
"Okay, what are you doing here?" Bancroft's eyes flashed with a fierce gleam and he asked bluntly.
He is not a good person, what two countries fight, do not cut to make this set, there is no place in front of him. In his eyes, there were only two kinds of these infidels, one that could be tamed and the other that must be eliminated.
At this time, he was ready, and once Lin Jiahui said something that dissatisfied him, he would immediately use the killer and take his life. Under the siege of this tens of thousands of troops, I am afraid that only the top masters of the grandmaster level can only be spared.
In the face of this legion elder who was famous for his fierce reputation as Caesar, Lin Jiahui showed no fear, and he said aloud: "Under the order of Commander Xu Haifeng, the lord of Wolong City, I came to your army-" He paused for a moment, took out a letter from his arms, and his high voice spread throughout the whole army: "The book of decisive battles." ”
His answer was a great surprise to Bancroft, and his words were in the language of the Caesars, and his profound skill spread far and wide, and everyone in the army could hear it.
After receiving the letter handed by his subordinates, Bancroft opened it and saw that eight big characters were written on it: "Tomorrow at noon, a hundred miles of plain"
He sneered, he had led his troops to fight for many years, and he had never seen any battles. These men were very bold, and if they met Artuso, the big fool who regarded himself as a knight, they should be treated accordingly. It's just that they encounter themselves.
Bancroft was waiting for the men to make a move, and killed the men to strengthen the army. Suddenly, a chill ran through his heart, and a dangerous aura firmly locked him. Goosebumps immediately appeared on his back, and a dense layer of sweat quickly oozed from his forehead.
His eyes were level, and he glanced at the long-bearded man, the most inconspicuous of the three Han envoys, and suddenly a chill spread through his body in an instant.
"General......
A low cry seemed to come from the boundless sky, and Bancroft suddenly woke up, and the solemn aura disappeared without a trace in an instant, if he wasn't still frightened, I was afraid that he really thought it was his own delusion.
His gaze wandered around the bearded man again, but he could not see the slightest abnormality, and the man stood there defenselessly, more like an ordinary person than an ordinary person. Walk him down the street, and promise that in the blink of an eye, he will never be recognized again.
However, the more this happened, the more shocked he became.
Who is this?
He was no stranger to the horror of falling into an ice cellar, and he had already had this experience twice in his life. There were only two people who could have given him such a feeling of fear, one was Grandmaster Auburn, and the other was the head of the mysterious Knights Templar.
Could it be that the old man in front of him, who didn't say a word from beginning to end, turned out to be a super person who could be compared to them.
Bancroft's heart sank, and if that was the case, he didn't know if the 50,000 troops of the Fourth Legion would be able to stop him, but at such a close distance, he was sure that he would want to take his own life.
At this moment, he deeply regretted why he was so reckless and let them get close to him easily. However, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, the Han people would actually send a grandmaster-level figure to pretend to be an entourage, I am afraid that it will be the first time to open the world.
"The war book has been issued, what the general wants, please decide."
The young man's voice rang out just in time.
"Okay, please reply to General Xu Haifeng, tomorrow at noon, we will fight to the death in the Baili Plain." Bancroft's eyes lit up and he shouted.
Lin Jiahui arched his hand and said, "I must bring it." ”
With that, he turned and left, and the two old men beside him gave Harry and Bancroft a deep look, and then followed.
Seeing them in the distance, Bancroft let out a long sigh, and the heart that had been in his throat was released. He was thinking in his heart, now that the distance between him and them had widened, even if the old man was a grandmaster, it would be difficult for him to threaten his life in the midst of thousands of troops, so whether to order the interception at this time.
Suddenly, there was a boo sound around him, and he turned his head to look, and couldn't help but be stunned, only to see that the old head of the Harry regiment was full of face, looking exhausted.
"Captain Harry, what's wrong with you?"
Harry smiled bitterly and said, "The Han people are crazy, they actually sent a master of the Grandmaster level to act as an envoy, fortunately you didn't have any drastic actions, otherwise you would have ...... at such a close distance" Harry shook his head, looking apprehensive.
"Grandmaster?" Bancroft thought back to Harry's performance, and a ridiculous thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he asked uncertainly, "Do you mean the long-bearded old man?" ”
Harry glanced at him inexplicably and said, "Commander, what are you talking about?" Of course, it's the black-faced bearded old man. ”
The old man's words suddenly stopped, and he looked at Bancroft in a daze, and asked, "Could it be that the man is also ...... :”
The face of the Fourth Legion Commander was the same pale, and his smile was extremely bitter, with a hint of horror in it: "I have seen Grandmaster Auburn and the Regimental Master, I should not admit that I am mistaken. ”
The two commanders looked at each other, and at the same time a sense of bad omen flashed in their hearts.
Xu Haifeng actually has such two trump cards in his hands, and this seems to be only the tip of the iceberg that he has surfaced, so what kind of behemoth will it be under the water?
