Chapter 16|4 King Elliot's counterattack
That night, in the mountains northeast of Fort Stanley, bonfires were blazing, laughter and laughter, and an army of 20,000 elves was here to disarm and toast and receive constant hospitality.
Although the military strength led by Changle is weak, it has a "portable forward base" in its body, and the most important thing is logistics supplies, and there is enough wine and meat at any time.
The reason why the meeting place is not in Fort Stanley is partly because the place is not large enough, and partly because it is for secrecy.
With such a strong reinforcement, Chang Le is more confident that he will stab the enemy in the back, so it is even more necessary to tightly seal the news in order to achieve the effect of surprise.
Fort Stanley housed thousands of refugees within the walls, and it was impossible to identify them one by one, and it would be impossible to say that there were no enemy spies in them, and it would not be believed that they were often happy to die.
Now for the defenders of the castle, the daytime thing is very simple, that is, the army of unknown origin appears, and when the siege is about to be attacked, he often goes to negotiate with him, and the enemy army withdraws after the negotiations.
Chang Le himself also took Lola back to the castle first, watching the queen's headquarters walk away along the river bank and disappear.
Then he announced to the public that the enemy army that appeared just now was the Kayan people, who came to seek revenge because of old grudges, and paid tribute and food to make peace, saving everyone from a bloody disaster.
So what's the matter? Who said that there can't be beautiful women among the Cayenne?
It just so happened that this time the queen brought a large number of elf male heavy armor infantry, with a strong and huge body, which was different from the image of the elven female warrior who was agile and good at shooting in the traditional impression, and also made Chang Le's statement more reasonable.
After the false news was spread, he quietly took Lola out of the city and met the queen at the agreed place. As for the castle defense, she had to be handed over to Miranda, although she was annoying, she was also a general after all, and she was always more reliable than Master Webb.
Also present was Phil, the skinny monkey, who had been monitoring the elven army from afar with hundreds of cavalry, and had also witnessed Changle's negotiation process, and after receiving the notice from the herald, he naturally became the queen's guide and led her to a hidden camp in the mountains.
Also for the sake of secrecy, the traditional singing and dancing of the elves was stopped in time so as not to make too much noise, but the atmosphere was still harmonious and cheerful, the elves were curious about humans, and humans were friendly to elves.
The most wonderful thing is that some elf female warriors drink alcohol, and when their emotions are high, they come to tease the human soldiers, and they attack the tall and handsome people, and the teasing methods are different from the tavern girls, more like a man to a woman, touching the face and chest, judging the head, and coveting it at a glance.
Instead of getting angry, the elven man clapped his hands.
The male and female warriors selected by the queen are the elite of the clan, and it is very rare for them to have a husband and wife, not to mention that the women of the elf clan are respected and polyandry, and it is traditionally forbidden for men to compete with each other and be jealous.
Chang Le's soldiers turned red and twisted, on the one hand, embarrassed by the reversal of gender roles, and on the other hand, they were afraid of violating military discipline.
But they must have a thousand wishes in their hearts, they have not touched a woman for a few months on the battlefield, and the elven women are beautiful and slender everyone, and the dry firewood has already been poured with oil, and if the torch is stretched out at this moment, there is nothing that cannot be lit.
On the top of the nearby hill, the commanders of the two armies stood side by side, looking at their subordinates carnival, and Chang Le smiled:
"Today is an exception, starting early tomorrow morning, until the end of the war, whether it is my subordinates or your army, not a drop of alcohol. ”
Queen Pantania had also taken off her armor at this time, changed into a long dress, and had a smile on her beautiful face:
"No problem, during the war, all of us are your subordinates, and whatever you say, you can be. ”
Chang Le was a little embarrassed:
"No, no, no, you are my ally, a guest, not a subordinate. ”
"On the battlefield, there can only be one person in the Supreme Commander, you are better than me to fight, this person can only be you. ”
Seeing that the queen was serious, Chang Le nodded:
"Thank you for your authorization, I will win this war with as little loss as possible, and I will give you enough rewards after the war!"
The Queen's brows gradually furrowed:
"If you don't want our covenant to go wrong, please change the way you speak. ”
Chang Le was stunned:
"I beg your pardon, I may have spoken too bluntly, and I beg you to make it clear if I have offended anything. ”
The queen was furious:
"On the contrary, you speak too politely, too politely, and don't treat me as your own!"
"I see. Chang Le grinned, "It's not my fault for being polite, the responsibility is on you." ”
"Why do you blame me?"
"Because your beauty is the best in the world, and your power sweeps one side, I look at you like a ......"
Chang Le pointed to the sky and continued:
"It's like looking up at the bright moon in the dark night, admiring, admiring, and never daring to have the slightest blasphemy and disrespect. ”
"Sycophants!" the queen smiled as she looked up at the moon.
Gradually, her expression turned serious:
"I did suggest that you be my husband. But that thing is long gone, and you don't have to hint at me over and over again, pushing me away again and again!"
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. ”
Chang Le lowered his head, saying that he didn't mean that, but in his heart, he actually calculated that his rejection of the queen must be very tactful, otherwise it will inevitably hurt the self-esteem of this beautiful and powerful man.
The queen sighed:
"I have eternal youth, a long life, you are a cultivation genius, and your life span will not be short, the human woman you love now may not be able to accompany you through your life, so what I have is patience. ”
Chang Le fell silent, the queen was right, if he married Fanny, and if the latter could not cultivate to a very high level, there would be a day in the future when he himself was still in the prime of life, but Fanny died gray-haired and old, this scene is sad to think about.
The queen suddenly smiled and took Chang Le's hand:
"It's too noisy here, let's go somewhere else. ”
As soon as this hand was held, they did not separate again, and the two walked hand in hand like a little couple.
The starry sky is more reminiscent of the topic of "eternity", in fact, the queen is a better lifelong companion than Fanny, even if wealth and status aside, a peerless beauty with eternal youth, which man does not dare to think only in dreams?
The two sat down on a rock, and the queen hugged her with open arms, and Chang Le naturally leaned on her shoulder.
But after a few seconds he was alert:
"No!
It was quickly changed to the man hugging each other with open arms, and the woman leaning into his arms.
Pantania "giggled" like a girl:
"Why can women rely on men? I'm taller than you. ”
Chang Le sighed:
"Your figure is slender enough to look beautiful from afar, but the closer I get to you, the more I need to look up. ”
This is another hint, in fact, it has nothing to do with the figure, the queen is only a few centimeters taller than him, the key is that the status and strength of the two are very different, Chang Le does not like the feeling of men looking up to women.
Pantania smiled softly, got up from Chang Le's arms, turned and knelt in front of him, put her hands on his knees, and looked up into his eyes:
"And now, who's looking up to whom?"
"Her Majesty...... You...... Don't ...... that."
Looking at the suffocatingly beautiful face in front of him, Chang Le's breathing was disordered, and his speech began to stutter.
"You said, today is a special day, don't be too disciplined. The queen smiled and stroked his hands on his legs, "So I agree, you don't need to be responsible for anything you do today." ”
"Queen's ......"
"Call me Pantania, or just Panta. ”
"Panta ......"
Seeing that the atmosphere gradually became gentle and sweet, and there was a sudden sound of footsteps not far behind him, Chang Le hurriedly turned around, but saw Odysia and Lola standing side by side.
Odysia turned cold and didn't speak, while Lola smiled evilly, patted the shoulder of the elf princess beside her, and looked at Chang Le and the queen:
"My new friend said that her mother was dating someone, and I told her to be nosy, and that widows also have the right to pursue happiness. ”
Odysia raised her elbow and hit Lola, and the force was not light, so that the "female man" grinned.
Then the princess said coldly to her mother:
"You are the queen of the elves, how can you kneel down to a human man?"
Pantania had to stand up, her face embarrassed:
"This ...... It's not kneeling!"
"Isn't kneeling, do you want to use special techniques on him?"
"You are presumptuous!" the queen finally became angry, "this king's private life is in your turn?"
Odysia pushed Lola forward beside her:
"It's none of my business, it's her business, she's loyal to Chang Sler, and she is born and died, isn't she worthy of love?"
Lola was so forcibly sold that she suddenly became embarrassed, and her eyes avoided Chang Le.
And Chang Le couldn't intervene in this dispute at all, and his face was even more embarrassed, and he coughed hard and walked away quickly.
I vaguely heard the queen sneering at each other, as if to say that Odysia had an experience similar to Lola, born and died for a man, and never received emotional returns, but now out of the psychology of making up for it, she regarded Lola as her own and forcibly stood up for Lola.
However, when she came to take care of the queen's affairs, she still ate too much, and it also hurt the relationship between mother and daughter.
The person concerned had no choice but to come to the valley to drink and laugh with his subordinates and elves, and gradually left the whole thing behind.
At his suggestion, the group organized an archery and wrestling tournament, and the winner was toasted by him.
Although winning or not winning does not prevent drinking, warriors will always seek honor, whether human or elven alike.
As a result, the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic, and the elven female warriors were diverted from teasing the human soldiers, because the elves had achieved almost all the victories, which also made the human soldiers especially admire this allied army.
In the midst of this joy, a series of screams suddenly came.
Chang Le hurriedly rushed to the place of the incident, it turned out that the thin monkey was beaten, Victor couldn't pull it on the side, and after asking the reason, he only sighed, said to the perpetrator Lola, "Please continue", and turned to leave.
It turned out that Lola came down from the mountain with a gloomy face, and the thin monkey was joking loudly without knowing the time.
He said that in the past, Lola stood among humans, and there were always a few women who were not as good-looking as her, but now there are beautiful elves everywhere, and there is no one on her back, and the "big tyrannosaurus" should stay away and find a place to "avoid the limelight".
Lola is indeed not as beautiful as the elf, but she is definitely a beauty in humans, and it is natural for the thin monkey to ridicule her for being ugly, but at this moment, it is equivalent to taking the initiative to send her to the door for the other party to be angry, and Chang Le can't save him.
In fact, this pair of enemies is more suitable to be husband and wife, and they will not be depressed for a lifetime, Chang Le always thinks so, but unfortunately Lola doesn't think so.
Eventually, Chang Le came to another mountaintop, this time alone, silently watching the east.
"Elliott, King of Fisher, has always ignored my provocations, and now that the supply lines have been cut off by me, and he has not sent anyone to fight back, what are you thinking?"
What King Fisher was thinking, even the people around him didn't know.
At this moment, in the camp of the coalition army west of the city of Sessnek, there was a lot of noise in the tent of Elliott, King of Fisher.
Some people thought that the siege should be started immediately, while others advocated that the whole army should turn back and clear the rear of the bed bugs first.
Both sides have their own claims, but they are all based on the same point: supply lines have been cut off, and food and supplies can no longer be transported by water or land.
If we don't solve it immediately, once the whole army goes hungry, it will collapse without a fight.
They quarreled with them, and King Fisher shrunk quietly in his chair, bowed his head and trimmed his nails, and said nothing.
If the leader doesn't speak, of course his subordinates can't fight for fame, and no one can convince anyone.
Until everyone was so loud that they had no strength to argue, King Fisher slowly raised his head and said softly:
"Since there is no conclusion, let's go back and rest, it's not too early. ”
The voice was gentle, like a wife's concern for a busy husband.
And that face is even more ashamed of the wives all over the world, it can be called delicate and elegant, beautiful!
And yet he was a man!
The generals seemed to be fearless about such a man, some left angrily, and some had to babble a few words, reminding the coach that there was not much food in stock.
Elliot smiled slightly, lowered his head to manicure his nails, and replied softly:
"There is not much food, you can eat less, the rations of the whole army are halved, the fourth day is full, and the fifth day the battle starts at dawn, so be it. ”
"You...... Why are you so scared? The one who cut off the supply of our army is a robber, who is good at stealing things, but he can't fight a war!"
King Fisher fell into a silent state again, burying his head in meticulous care of his nails, and seemed to value him far more than his subordinates disposed of it.
"Honorable King Fisher!" Another general of the Zaran Kingdom couldn't help but roar, "That robber beheaded our army and built a tower, it was a provocation and even more humiliating! If you refuse to return to the division, I will lead 20,000 men and horses from my headquarters to bring back that bastard's head!"
King Fisher raised his head, narrowed one eye, and gestured with his fingers, but did not reply to the general's question.
"What are you doing?" the man asked, stunned.
"I'm going to calculate how tall a tower should be with 20,000 heads. ”
"You!" the general pointed at King Fisher, and his respectful tone swept away, "You actually humiliated me, I am a Zhalan **, and I will not listen to your command from now on!"
King Fisher chuckled softly:
"Teacher, someone is disobedient. ”
His voice was not loud, and he didn't know who to speak, but a scream came from outside the tent in an instant, and then a bloody forest head flew back and rolled in the tent a few times.
King Fisher frowned and turned his head, not looking at the dirt on the ground, and told the guards around him to clean up quickly.
It wasn't until the head was removed and the blood was cleared that he turned his face to look at the silent coalition general:
"I'm the head coach of the coalition forces, and if anyone forgets, I don't mind reminding you about it once. ”
Everyone didn't dare to say anything more, and King Fisher also expressed his satisfaction, nodded and smiled, and asked them to go back and have a good rest, it has been too hard to fight continuously recently.
Even the generals of Zaran did not dare to express the slightest objection at this time.
I've always heard that King Fisher has a war sect by his side, and Elliot calls him "teacher", but no one has ever seen the appearance of that master, and until now, he still only sees him killing, but does not see his face, which is even more terrifying.
Until all the idlers had left, Elliot got up with a grin and tilted his head to the left:
"Teacher, it's really hard for me to pretend like this. ”
Then he turned his face to the right again, and still answered himself:
"But how can people be afraid if they don't put on a show?"
After asking and answering a few words, he looked up to the sky and chuckled:
"That robber, his name is Changsler, isn't he? cunning, dirty, like a fly, encircling with a great army, like a hammer beating a fly. ”
Then tilt your head to the left:
"Teacher, what should I use to fight flies?"
"Silly boy, of course a fly swatter. ”
"So, who's going to make this fly swatter?"
"Silly boy, you have itchy hands yourself, why do you bother to ask me?"
"Haha!"
"Hahaha!"
After talking to himself like a split personality, Elliott the King of Fisher stepped forward slowly.
In the first step, the wind is faintly whistling;
In the second step, the whole body is lit up with brilliant brilliance;
In the third step, a pair of light wings stretched out from behind, shimmering with flowing shadows and slowly flickering
Step 4...... And he was gone.
High in the sky, a meteor-like brilliance flashed in an instant, and almost no one noticed.
