Chapter 408: Welcome
Night.
"You said the pathfinder scouts didn't come back. Which side. ”
In the tent. Ma Cheng had a gloomy face. looks like he's about to kill someone.
"Report to the commander-in-chief. Either side is ...... Didn't come back. ”
The scout chief knelt in front of Ma Cheng. A look of trepidation. Ma Cheng is notorious for his irascible temperament. It's a guy who can execute his subordinates without changing his face.
"Hmph. Dismount. Do you still think that my dignified commander of the army will still be afraid of this? Amusing. You can step down. Scouts. It's okay not to send it out for the time being. ”
Ma Cheng waved his hand at the scout manager. Motioning for him to get out of here now.
"But...... Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief. The staff group is still asking for your opinion. ”
The Scout Supervisor finally breathed a sigh of relief. More and faster chapters are here. What happened next had little to do with me anyway. Even if you have to take the blame, you can't take your turn.
"What is the opinion of those old things in the staff group. The scouts are gone. They're going to want me to quit. Isn't it. ”
Ma Cheng glanced disdainfully at the scout manager who had not yet gotten up. Vicious words blurted out.
"The commander-in-chief is wise. ”
This opportunity is rare. The scout manager hurriedly slapped his ass. Although this is a fact that is well known to individuals.
"Let them fuck off. Just know how to retreat. Withdraw. Withdraw. From the time I sent out the troops. Someone said a good word. Retire now. Now that I have withdrawn from the army, will I use their money to pay for the pirates' military expenses? Outrageous. That's what you tell them. Early tomorrow morning. The whole army attacked. The first time to update, go all the way to burn all the way. I really don't want this land. ”
If it's a different occasion. Ma Cheng shouldn't be so irritable. It's just that the messy affairs of the past few days have really made him angry. Once he was impulsive. It's easy to make reckless and tyrannical acts.
"This ...... Be. The subordinates will report it. “
The Scout Governor is also one of the important ministers. Nature knows how much it means to have territories and people. But now Ma Cheng is in a state of rage. If a refutation is expressed here. The unlucky one must be himself. So he hurriedly responded. The herald went. "Coward......
When the Scout Master is out. Ma Chengcai spat fiercely.
Ma Cheng is naturally not afraid. Both in terms of the number of battles fought and the number of victories. The first update was enough for him to sneer at all the nearby lords. He relied on well-trained troops. and decisive tactics. The interception of scouts on the White Sea Territory side is not new. It's a threat. The intention is to tell the other person that no matter where you come from. We all have a way to deal with it.
But Ma Cheng has always only believed in power. He had long known the strength of the White Sea Territory. So this kind of behavior is nothing more than a bluff in his eyes.
"Someone. Tomorrow we will attack the town. Let the pirates be the vanguard. ”
A cloud of malice suddenly appeared in my heart. Ma Cheng shouted to the soldiers guarding outside. He had made up his mind to turn the pirates into mere cannon fodder.
It was just dawn. The mighty pirate army thought it had earned a good fortune. One by one, they dangled at the front of the marching procession with high morale.
Naturally, it was the people from this side of the White Sea who killed the scouts. One of them is Qiu Wuyi.
Ma Cheng's marching plan did not change in the slightest. Although this man is stubborn and self-serving. Once you really step into the battlefield. But he also knows how to calculate. Scouts were sent out to require. This time, however, it went well.
Soon. The scouts have made a discovery.
"Army. What an army. ”
Ride on your beloved mount draped in heavy armor. Ma Cheng heard a piece of news that he thought was good.
"There are no flags. He was wearing the armor of the regular army. But the number of people is very small. There may only be more than a hundred. It seems that a combat meeting is underway. More and faster chapters are here. Most of the soldiers were in formation. Only a few people were arguing about something in the tent. ”
Scout Fifteen-Ten spoke of everything he saw. Before the two armies face each other. It is also an essential action. There is nothing suspicious.
"Haha. God help me. You want to ambush me. Don't you know that the terrain of their White Sea territory is more familiar to me than anyone else? Herald. Rush me. Don't be afraid of ambushes. I know it. ”
Ma Cheng laughed. The order to attack was given decisively. It's not that he's arrogant. At least he really did enough homework on the terrain distribution along the marching route.
After the military order was issued. The pirates were the first to stir up. They're just a rabble. Had to leave the sea for some reason. Converted to mercenary. Of course. There is no waiting for the achievements to be made. And the chief died......
So their anger is even greater than Ma Cheng's. As soon as I heard that I could kill and loot, I could kill and loot happily. One by one, the spirit is like being beaten with chicken blood. Even if the opposing troops can't see it, they will scream and charge.
It was a few miles away. Ma Cheng's eyebrows gradually furrowed.
"Report to the commander-in-chief. That team...... Retreated. ”
The scout brought the latest information to Ma Cheng in time.
"Retreated. When. ”
Ma Cheng's brows suddenly expanded. Hurriedly asked.
"Not so long ago. Traces of the retreat of the army are still there. Didn't go into the valley. ”
"Give me chase. They didn't have time to set up. Follow their route. ”
Ma Cheng recalled the nearby terrain. The first update knew that there was only a narrow valley ahead that could place ambush soldiers. Nowhere else is suitable.
If it's an ambush strategy. It was necessary to lead the enemy into the valley. But as long as it's not in the valley. No amount of ambush is useless. Therefore, Ma Cheng thought that the army in front must have retreated because it was too late to arrange.
Now that Ma Cheng has given the order. The people below had to obey. It didn't take long. The mighty army had already chased before the valley.
Over the valley. It is the flat continental highway. But there's more than one way out. There is also the option to go up the mountain. You can still let the army pass. It's just going to get slow.
"Hmph. Ambush. Don't you want to play ambush. Look where you hide. ”
Ma Cheng finally smiled hideously. More and faster chapters are here. The grinning mouth is like a beast about to tear the flesh of its prey. Follow the trail all the way to here. It was clear to see the footprints of the army climbing up the mountain. It's certainly an escape.
The army followed many footprints. The mountain is not steep. There is no problem with the road. Combat is also barely feasible. It's just that the road is a bit narrow. It is not easy to get the army to immediately reflexively retreat. Ma Cheng doesn't think this is his disadvantage. The troops are here. Once a conflict arises. The only one who retreats is the White Sea side.
Soon after. The serpentine army had already climbed to the top of the mountain.
"Look. ”
A few of the more eyesighted ones immediately screamed. The forward pirates spotted a group of soldiers lined up in the valley below. Armor. Helmet. A complete set of warrior equipment. But the number is small. There are less than 100 of them.
The soldiers standing in the valley stood upright. Even when the cold wind blows, it doesn't move. In front of the phalanx. Four non-commissioned officers, who were also heavily armed, seemed to be walking around anxiously. Don't know what you're waiting for.
"Haha. Are you waiting for me? It seems that they need to be taught a good lesson. I don't even know how to set up an ambush. Rush me. Within five minutes. Defeat them completely. ”
Ma Cheng was the first to pull out the long sword at his waist. The blade of the sword pointed at the "ambush soldier" hiding in the valley. True. It is a common art of war to let a small group of soldiers deceive and lure the enemy. However, the mountains are all their own team. There was not half an ambush.
The pirates have been waiting for blood for a long time. The cavalry regiment led by Ma Cheng was not to be outdone. These two armies marched the fastest. Pulled the ordinary infantry behind a little distance. More and faster chapters are here. But overall, they are still not left behind. Even if something goes wrong, you can still rescue it.
A few small soldiers saw such a large army descending from the sky. I'm afraid I'm already scared and crying. Ma Cheng thought so. However, the "army" of no more than 100 people remained unmoved.
"Stop. Stop me. Let's see what's going on first.
Ma Cheng finally felt that something was wrong. Have the team stay in the middle of the road down the mountain. The pirates were dissatisfied. Explained by others. Reluctantly accepted the order.
The army is on standby. The scout immediately slipped into the valley. The scout sent by Ma Cheng was one of his cronies. Usually will not be released. It can only be enabled at critical moments.
The scout reached into the valley. He saw several "people" walking back and forth still moving. Although there are some doubts. But he still quietly approached the backs of those "people".
"Dummies. ”
The scout quickly grabbed a man walking around. Press it to the ground. only to find that it was empty armor. There are only a few metal wires in it. But I don't know why the metal wire causes the armor to move.
He immediately brought down the second man. The same is true for the second person. There are only metal wires. There is no body.
Look no further. The faces of the soldiers of the warbands were empty. There was nothing under the helmet.
Unexplained visions sent hairs to the scouts' hearts. Don't look at it carefully. Hurriedly jumped up the hill along the edge of the valley. I want to report this matter to Ma Cheng immediately.
But he didn't see a piece of armor standing on the ground suddenly fall apart. It wasn't a human being that appeared in the armor. Rather, it is an elongated column.
Two soft metal threads break through the snow. A black stone pillar was entangled in it. The other one was curled up in the shape of a ball of thread. Slammed down on the top of the pillar. This sequence of actions took place in an instant. Almost at the same time. The butterfly-like figure also broke through the snow at the same time.
"Assassins. ”
Everyone saw Qiu Wuyi's figure. But no one noticed the stone pillar that Qiu Wuyi had nailed into the ground before rushing out of the snow.
The stone pillar was nailed into the ground for nine minutes. Only one point is exposed. It's almost equivalent to turning on the maximum power.
"Catch him. ”
Ma Cheng was waiting to give the order with his sword. What I heard in my ears was a "flutter". The slender tip of the sword peeked through his chest.
"Welcome. ”
Qiu Wuyi smiled coldly. Jumped to the other end of the valley in quick succession.
The army, which had not been very well organized, suddenly fell into extreme chaos. All the soldiers and pirates wielded their weapons. Start attacking everyone you can see without distinction between friend and foe
