readx;
The snow lasted for three days, and when the snow stopped, the exhausted search troops returned to the Crusade garrison, but to Gamudi's surprise, not only did Captain Ikwan not return, but six thousand-man teams were missing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Snap" Gamudi's hand slapped heavily on the table, and his eyes showed a fierce light and looked at the two kneeling captains below. "Waste, with so many people lost, I didn't even find out who the enemy was. What do I want you to do with these things, the loss is so great, but there is no useful information at all, how can I explain. ”
Gamudi's shouting frightened the two of them not to raise their heads, and they could only wait silently for the marshal's anger to subside. At this moment, a herald rushed into the big tent: "Report to the marshal, a group of remnants have returned, and their commander has asked to see the marshal, saying that there is an important situation report." ”
"Oh, let him in. Gamudi was shocked when he heard this, and immediately asked the commander to summon him. Soon a stumbling figure with a tattered body and blood stains on his clothes rushed into the tent. "Marshal, we have found traces of the enemy. The man fell to the ground and gasped.
"Tell me what you've found. Gamudi's eyes widened, and his hurried voice showed his anxiety. At this time, the two captains kneeling below breathed a sigh of relief, if there was really news, their responsibility would be much smaller.
"Report to the marshal, we were attacked by an unknown cavalry unit last night, and although we resisted with all our might, the opponent was wrapped in armor, and even the horses were covered with a layer of armor, and it was difficult for our weapons to penetrate the opponent's armor. The commander shook his body, as if he saw something terrible, and said, "Those people are so powerful, our soldiers have no resistance to being slaughtered by them. In the end, the villain had to order a retreat, and under the cover of night, I escaped, and finally only collected back more than a hundred remnants. ”
The commander's body trembled as he spoke, most of his troops were killed or wounded, and he didn't even know what the other party was like, and he didn't know what kind of severe punishment he would receive. However, what the commander did not expect was that Marshal Gamudi not only did not reprimand him, but applauded repeatedly: "Great, I finally know what they look like." Go back and rest when you have done a great job, and henceforth take over from Ike's position as a captain. ”
originally thought that he would die, but it turned out to be such a turning point, the commander was stunned for a moment and knew that he kowtowed and thanked him, and then left happily.
When the new Captain Wan left, Gamudi looked left and right and said, "What do you think about what army is so powerful, not only full of armor, but also easily annihilating Captain Ikwan's troops." ”
De'ang suddenly stepped forward and said, "Does the marshal remember the time in Gaoyang Hill, in the end, it was such a cavalry unit that completely crushed our large array. ”
"You mean the Dragon Soul Legion," Marshal Gamudi said in a lost voice.
"Yes, it must be the Dragon Soul Legion, we were killed very badly by those cavalry at the beginning. Abuda also thought about it.
"If that's the case, it's troublesome, most of our Eastern Crusade Army has gone to the south at this time, and it can't resist the opponent's attack at all. If the Dragon Roar Empire launched an attack at this time, we would not have the power to fight back at all. As soon as he thought of the Dragon Soul Legion, Marshal Gamudi trembled a little, and he didn't dare to easily compete with this elite army.
"Marshal, I don't think so, now it's freezing on the grassland, so those infantry will definitely not be able to stand it, I think only the opposing cavalry has come. According to intelligence, Ruitao only has 20,000 cavalry in his hands, and we have 100,000 cavalry, can't we defeat them?" said a commander of ten thousand soldiers.
"Yes, Marshal, after all, we are outnumbered. Another captain also said excitedly.
Marshal Gamudi shook his head and said, "The opponent is well-equipped, and it is difficult for our weapons to deal effective damage to the enemy, let alone kill the opponent. For the sake of safety, I immediately asked the imperial capital for reinforcements, believing that the imperial family would not let such a serious invasion problem go unchecked. ”
"You don't have to send a letter for help. A rather feminine voice suddenly appeared in the tent, followed by a man in green clothes and a man in white clothes in the middle of the tent.
"Whoever dares to break into the big tent, report it quickly. Gamudi shouted, he was just about to say something more, his eyes were sure that the man in green clothes was attracted by the costume, he asked tentatively: "This gentleman, are you?"
The man in Tsing Yi nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, I am the Khanate Worshipper, the second-rank war king Ratti." This is Good, a good friend from the Temple. ”
"It turned out to be an offering, and there was a loss of hope and inclusiveness. Gamudi immediately showed a flattering smile when he heard the other party's identity revealed. Even Gamudi, who was the marshal of the Imperial Expeditionary Army, did not dare to provoke these countries that seemed to have no military power. The Chagatai Khanate is a country where the strong are respected, and the level of status cannot be above the strength, even the Great Khan is polite when he sees these offerings, let alone a marshal.
Gathudi's attitude made Ratty very satisfied, and he nodded and said, "Marshal Gamudi doesn't need to be polite, we are here for the cavalry of the Dragon Soul Legion this time. This time, our temple friends warned us in advance, which is why we came so quickly. ”
Goode on the side nodded and said, "Yes, this time I was appointed by the Pope to warn the allies. This time the situation is more complicated, the cavalry attack of the Dragon Soul Legion is not their main operation, this is just a cover, they are building a new castle near Jialan Pass. This is the most serious act of aggression against the Chagatai Khanate, and we must put an end to it. ”
Gamudi suddenly realized when he heard this, and he had always wondered why the other party took such a big risk and went deep into the grassland to carry out a sneak attack, but it turned out to attract his attention. "Two adults, even so, it is impossible for us to deal with the Dragon Soul Legion, after all, most of my army has gone to the south now. ”
Ratti waved his hand to stop Gamudi and said: "Marshal don't worry, this time we are not alone, a team of 10,000 people drawn from the imperial capital will arrive soon, and they will carry a large number of new steel weapons and armor for you, which is supported by the suzerain, enough for your subordinates to redress." ”
"Steel Weapon Armor" Gamudi was excited when he heard this, the steel weapon armor sent from the Durrant Empire must be the masterpiece of craftsmen, this is a good thing that they couldn't ask for before, and now they can actually change clothes for the whole army, such a good thing He is naturally happy.
