Chapter 4 Killing
At the beginning, the Norland Expeditionary Force led by Gordon and the Hulands fought fiercely on the kilometer-long bridge of the continent, and every inch of land here was repeatedly watered with blood.
Whenever Gordon was about to make a breakthrough, Hulan's warriors would stop him with their lives. In the end, the Norland Expeditionary Force ran out of vital strength and stopped at the Continental Bridge. Since then, the two sides have faced off across the bridge and built a large number of fortifications.
During this time, the fortifications of both sides continued to move forward until they were less than a kilometer apart. The area became a death zone, where I don't know how many warriors died, their blood staining the ground a dark brown.
Richard and Reilly stood on a watchtower, observing the situation on the other side. From this point of view, the first half of the Hulands fortifications are in full view. The small area was lined with thousands of shield warriors, and the Arrow Towers and Bastions were specially designed to strengthen magical defenses, and were highly resistant to the archmage's group attack spells.
The Hulans were clever and cautious, and they built a second wall on the commanding heights opposite. This not only made it much more difficult for the Norlanders to cross the Continental Bridge, but also blocked their view, killing two birds with one stone.
At this time, Minnie Mouse walked over.
"Lord Richard, the reorganization of the army has been completed. β
By the time Richard and Reilly went to see the sea, Minnie had already stayed in the fortress to reorganize the army. She had followed Richard for a long time and knew how to reorganize it to suit her lord's wishes.
Richard nodded and led the group into the war room.
A sophisticated magic map has been laid out in the hall, and several mages are entering the latest data into the map. As a result, the terrain of the Continental Bridge has become clear little by little, this magic map is extremely accurate, and it can be disassembled, and it can be carried with the army, which is the best product of its kind, and each Norland giant will buy one or two to show its military professionalism.
Although this thing is a mass product, it also costs hundreds of thousands of gold coins a piece, and of course Gordon can't afford to use it.
Richard thought for a moment and said: "The heavy corps moved forward and entered the attack position, the light infantry followed, and the garrison corps also entered the position in advance. All transfers must be completed by dusk tomorrow. β
He made a few manipulations on the magic map, pushing several flags representing the Legion to the front, which was equivalent to putting two-thirds of the troops into the attack position.
Semia asked in surprise, "Do you want to attack the city?"
If you use this kind of hard-hitting style of play, even if you break the Hulan people's defense, you will lose a lot.
"No, wait for them to call. β
"Wait for the Hulan to call?" Semir was even more surprised.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you just need to carry out the order. Reilly smiled and said, "Do you want to go and say hello to the Hulan people first?"
"Of course. Once the army had been deployed, Richard headed out.
"This time, I'll show you my new followers. Reilly patted Riven on the shoulder and said.
Richard looked at the girl with the giant sword on her back and said, "Then let her go first." β
Some gorgeously dressed guys appeared on the fortress of the Hulans, apparently alarmed by the battle on this side. Many of them are strong, and some of them are even staring at Richard with unkind eyes, who makes him the leader?
Riven saluted Reilly, and then jumped off the fifteen-meter-high wall, landing without making any sound!
The Norland powerhouses were shocked. Just by looking at this hand, a discerning person can judge the level of this white-haired female swordsman's martial arts.
Rui Wen walked to the middle of the Continental Bridge and shouted: "Rui Wen is here, who dares to come out and fight to the death!"
Under the effect of the fighting spirit, the voice of the female swordsman quickly spread, constantly echoing in the rift, as if there was only one voice left in heaven and earth.
The Hulan powerhouses all changed color, and for a while, no one dared to fight.
Seeing this, Rui Wen shouted again: "Isn't there a warrior in Hulan?"
This is a blatant provocation, as if a slap in the face has been slapped in the face of all Hulan powerhouses. Many of the fighters showed expressions of shame, and the morale of the troops quickly declined.
"Isn't there a warrior in Hulan?"
A few minutes later, Riven repeated the sentence again.
This time, someone finally couldn't take it anymore.
A burly man jumped off the wall and strode over to where Riven was. His skin is a pale cyan characteristic of the Hulan people, and he is more than two and a half meters tall, more than one-third taller than the one-meter-eight Rui Wen. The big man was carrying a two-handed giant sword, which was also a circle larger than the giant sword in Rui Wen's hand.
Dahan's speed is not slow, and he is obviously a strong man with both strength and agility.
Seeing her opponent play, Rui Wen stepped back some distance to make room for him.
The big man held the sword in both hands, and his whole body exuded a violent momentum. He stared at Rui Wen and said awe-inspiringly, "Who are you? I am Marquis Jeffreys of the Hulan Empire. β
"My name is Riwen and I'm a fighter. β
As soon as the words fell, Rui Wen disappeared from the sight of the big man.
The big man's pupils shrank, but he didn't have time to make more movements, because Rui Wen had already appeared above his head.
The giant sword fell with the momentum of Mount Tai's overwhelming force, instantly smashing the big man into the ground. The entire continental bridge shook suddenly, and a visible ripple spread out from the battlefield, and a spiderweb-like crack appeared on the ground.
The scene was so shocking that even the fighters on Norland's side forgot to cheer. No one thought that a Sacred Domain powerhouse would turn into a corpse in an instant,
"Come back, Rivien. β
When he said this, Reilly suddenly remembered the cartoon "PokΓ©mon" that he had watched as a child.
(Now I'm like a trainer...... Haha)
Now, no one on Hulan's side will dare to come out again, and Ruiwen's purpose of fighting has been achieved.
The swordswoman dragged the body of the Marquis of Jeffries back. This move not only made the Hulan people angry, but even the strong men on Richard's side frowned.
The Marquis of Jeffreys, who had died in a fair duel, had shown his dignity and deserved respect.
Ruiwen's approach not only trampled on the dignity of the Hulan people, but also made the Norland powerhouses very uncomfortable.
"Why do you want to do this?" asked Richard, frowning.
"I was going to lure those guys out, but who knew they could bear it so much. Reilly said with a smile.
"Since the Hulands didn't come out, then the body of the Marquis of Jeffries ......"
"Can be used to craft Sanctuary golems. β
β......β
Richard was silent. Compared to the puppets of the Sanctuary Realm, his insistence was really insignificant.
Losing an opportunity to increase one's strength in order to preserve the dignity of the enemy is not something a good commander would do.
Richard left the city, and the Hulan strongmen returned to their fortresses. At this time, both sides felt the tension of the approaching big war, and the Norland army drove into the forward base with murderous violation, and the Hulan people also continued to increase their troops and strengthen their vigilance.
