Chapter 45 Tian Dan Locks the River
Not to mention the development of Huaxia that Ji Wuwu cared about, the three people in charge of the Bauhinia Legion had no sleepiness after being attacked at night, and after letting the soldiers go down to rest, the three of them simply sat all night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The fierce man named Zhang Liao in Huaxia City did not raid again, which made the three of them breathe a sigh of relief. As soon as it was dawn, the three of them began to cross the river according to the plan discussed during the night.
The Long River is the largest river in the Godforsaken Lands, and it can also be said to be the mother river of the Godforsaken Landers. More than half of the creatures living in the Godforsaken Land rely on this river for their water. The long river field is also named because of its irrigation.
Perhaps due to the strange weather of the Forbidden Sea, the Forbidden Lands have abundant rainfall, so the water in the river is quite abundant from its source. Although its length is much shorter than that of continental rivers, the width of the river is quite wide. In this area of Huaxia City, the width of the river is moderate, about more than 1,000 meters long. The impact of the river and the silt at the bottom of the river made it take half an hour for the beast to walk through the mud, let alone any other way.
This time, in order to cross the river, Hall, at Gai's suggestion, brought hundreds of special rafts, which were originally used for fishing on the seashore, and the carrying capacity was quite strong, and it was of course impossible to transport giant beasts, and the warriors used to transport redbuds could be loaded with 20 fully armed warriors at a time. Hundreds of rafts, one round trip, could carry enough fighters to establish a safe landing site on the west bank of the river.
If the winter wolf still wants to attack halfway like last time, those warriors who cross the river will definitely let them taste the power of humans. Even if Zhang Liao, who had raided last night, attacked again, Gai was confident that with the help of these soldiers, he would gain a safe time for the subsequent river-crossing army. Because, the first group to cross the river was none other than Gai and his most powerful troops, the Qingjia Army.
It's a pity that Gai didn't know that the opponent he faced this time was not Zhang Liao, but Tian Dan, whose command ability may still be above Zhang Liao.
Just this morning, when the three major legions of Bauhinia were dragged out of the raft, they were discovered by Tian Dan at the head of the city. After knowing that the other party had plans to force the Long River, he immediately transported all the ballistas in the city to the outside of the city, and personally notified the Winter Wolf King who was hiding outside the city. The Winter Wolf King was also quite jealous of this guy who was covered with beast souls, and without any effort from Tian Dan, the Winter Wolf King agreed to help him transport and protect the ballista.
Waiting for Gai and his Qingjia army, sitting on the raft, halfway through the river, some winter wolves suddenly appeared on the bank of the river, as well as the figure of the Huaxia army. Just as Gai was putting the soldiers on the nearby raft on guard with a serious face, crossbow arrows emitting a death aura were fired from some strange equipment.
These crossbow cars owned by Huaxia originate from the "Luban Secret Record" and have their own extraordinary, one crossbow and three arrows, covering a wide range is one of them. Dozens of ballistas, launched in a row, turned a piece of water near the west bank of the long river into a place of death. The Qingjia army in the middle of it, on the uncovered raft, how could they dodge this spear-like crossbow arrow. All of a sudden, there were screams on the rafts, and from time to time some soldiers of the Qingjia Army were shot by crossbow arrows and fell into the water. What's more, in order to avoid crossbow arrows, the raft was overturned, and the entire raft warriors died at the bottom of the river together.
Under the three-wheel fire of the ballista, the 3,000 Qingjia troops were reduced by one-fifth, and many of those killed by the crossbow arrows did not sink to the bottom of the river. And under the deterrence of crossbow arrows, the rest of the rafts hesitated and lay there, becoming the best targets. Gai knew that the warriors had lost their courage, and even if they rushed ashore now, they might not be the opponents of the Chinese warriors and winter wolves on the riverbank.
"Go down the river and change the landing site!" The casualties of the Qingjia Army made Gai's heart drip blood. After a moment's hesitation, Gai gave the order to give up. The Qingjia Army is his trump card, and he doesn't want to lose it all here, otherwise even if this battle is won, he himself will still lose. Especially when he thought of Hall's strange tone last night, his thoughts were even stronger.
If one side loses its courage, it can only be beaten into the water dogs.
When Gale directed the raft to turn, Tian Dan did not let them go, and the ballista continued to shoot, and bit off a piece of meat on the Qingjia army. And his arrangement, not only that. Looking at the raft flowing downstream, Tian Dan smiled reservedly. Young man, you have to learn a lot more than Le Yi!
Gai's failure to rush to the ferry put Hall and Yunwu on the other side in a dilemma, and they didn't know whether to continue the attack or retreat. If you attack, although you can't see the weapons of those Chinese people on the other side clearly, just listening to the screams that came from you made the soldiers who had experienced a nightmare last night tremble. retreated, but Hall was unwilling, not to mention that Gai and his Qingjia army were still on the other side, even Angela's hatred, and he was unwilling to give up.
"Cloud Hunter, the current situation, you see how to deal with it!" Hall was in a dilemma, so he had to ask the leader of the Second Giant Beast Legion who was frighteningly low-key and had no sense of existence in the Bauhinia Tribe.
"Wait!" After smiling and looking at Hall, Yunwu gave his advice. "At present, the head of the hunt is going down the river, and if there is a suitable landing spot, he will definitely send a raft to turn around to guide us. If there is no suitable place, he will also lead his troops back to the east coast. It's better for us to be still at the moment, just wait. ”
"Wait a minute!Okay, I'll follow what the cloud hunter said. What Yunwu said was quite in line with his wishes, and Hall immediately agreed.
"Did you choose to wait? The generals on this side of the strait are too vulnerable! Attract troops to force the crossing, there are so many of you, even if all our soldiers kill softly, they can't finish killing. Or make a simple bracket on the raft, cover it with a layer of giant animal skin, and add a metal shield, which can also reduce the loss!" Tian Dan, who originally planned to kill and injure some of the opponent's living forces, found that after the other party was killed for a while, he didn't move, and couldn't help but complain to himself.
But he didn't know that his words shocked a group of people behind him in a cold sweat, secretly glad that the other party was a general sent to his side by the gods, if he was sent to the other party, let alone defend the city, even if he fled to the mountains and forests, he would find out and kill it.
"Cough, Tian Xiang is merciful, if you keep talking, I'm afraid that I, the little city lord, won't even be able to stay in Huaxia City, and I'm going to flee to the mountains!" After listening to a paragraph, seeing that Tian Dan seemed to have plans to continue, Ji Wuwu coughed lightly and stopped.
"Ha, it turns out that the king has come up! Shan is a Chinese man in this life, and the official position in the previous life should not be called the king for the time being, and after Shan has achieved enough merits, he will come to the king to ask for an official position. Tian Dan turned his head and saw a group of people standing behind him, and he was not embarrassed, he said hello to Ji Wuwu, grabbed the question of salutation, and joked with Ji Wuwu.
"Okay, I'm just waiting for you to take the position of Xiangguo!" Ji Wuwu didn't smile, but said to Tian Dan with a straight face.
Tian Dan's expression also changed, and he bowed respectfully, "Shan will achieve the merit of the country." ”
