Chapter 52: The Mercenary's Duty

As the most limelight in the "Human Dragon God" group, it is not the mercenary king Amy, but the black-faced dragon king Chi Aotian who dislikes words the most.

After the War of the Gods, between the bards of the night, there will be people mysteriously asking for the story of the black-faced dragon king, and the moment the request is made, the bar must be as silent as death.

Faced with the needs of customers, the bard is bound to meet the demand, but all bards must put forward one condition: they need to be escorted when returning to the hotel at night. Under the fame of death, not only the children who cry at night, but even the bards who go south and north do not dare to walk alone at night after singing.

One of the most well-known bards of the prairie jīng played and sang the music of the black-faced dragon king for three hours at the request of the guests at the Ulu Tree House bar, and collapsed after playing, and when the mercenary warrior helped him out of the bar door, the poet looked at the bright stars in the sky and muttered: "Look...... The brightest twin stars in the sky will not be beyond the eyes of the brave men of the Creation God Realm. "Everyone was speechless - according to legend, the Death God Realm and the Creation God Realm were connected to each other, and perhaps the Black-Faced Dragon King and his mount Dragon looked at each other in silence.

The most stable evaluation of the "human dragon god" in the world is not the mercenary king Amy, but the holy dragon knight Daqingshan.

"Even with the 1,000-year-old twilight jīng spirit, Daqingshan will show the demeanor of an elder. --Bloodaxe Locke evaluation.

"Xìng's fate is entrusted, and I sincerely feel the world. --Mercenary Empire Southern Heavenly King Commentary.

"A model of knightly code!" - Headmaster of Amy's Imperial Knight School.

"It is the glory of our dragon clan to make a covenant with you in this life, and the dragon realm and your descendants will always be partners. "--This is also the highest rating in the Divine Dragon Assembly.

--"A Sigh of the Ages: The Dragon God"

※※※

Amy and Sha Ruo rushed to Daqingshan's side at the same time. The little mercenaries next to him were crying into tears, Daqingshan himself had fallen into a coma, shortness of breath between the wings of his nose, and everyone turned Daqingshan over with all hands and feet, there were two wounds on his back, and the wound on his right shoulder was slightly shallow--before the expedition, Amy specially sent someone to take the steel crossbow that Daqingshan had not used for a long time, and the sword was piercing the back of the crossbow, so although the wound was visible to the bone, the depth was no more than 2 points, and the wound on the left side was as deep as 5 points, almost hurting the internal organs, and the broken blood vessels continued to gush out.

Sha Ruo whispered to the priest magic: "Merciful Moon God, unleash your divine power and save the innocent." ”

The vicinity of the wound, especially the place where the blood is stagnant, is constantly jumping with a white sè divine luster, the greatest effect of magic from the Holy See priest system of Ulu is to heal diseases and save people, these magic are almost effective on all species in the creation god realm, and the best way to absorb this magic is of course humans. Legend has it that a truly otherworldly great priest can even use supreme magic to retrieve a soul from the Grim Reaper's hand that is about to enter the Grim Reaper's realm. Although Daqingshan's injuries are serious, they can still be treated in the eyes of the pastor who has been transferred.

Seeing that Daqingshan's life was not in danger, Amy relaxed slightly, and asked a few little mercenaries to carry Daqingshan to the city, Sha Ruo and Lin Yushang accompanied the guards, and the little mercenaries retreated to the city gate one after another.

The Berserk Knights and Knights finally retreated to the city gates.

The two deputy captains of the Great Swordsman Battalion, Fan and Ka Fei Yan Sè Tieqing, ran down from the city wall, ordered their subordinates to immediately stumble over all the civilians who had been rescued, and sat on the ground in a pile of every 10 people in the square of the city, surrounded by the Great Swordsman with a long sword. In the latest personnel transfer of the small mercenary group, Horns was appointed as the captain of the Berserker Battalion and the Berserker Battalion, the Great Swordsman Battalion is the largest number of small mercenary groups, and the captain position is hot. Seeing that the captain was sneak attacked, the soldiers of the Great Swordsman Battalion saw that these people became swertier eyebrows one by one, and naturally they would not treat them well. Horns then came down from the city wall and told the old residents of Broken Ice Harbor to cooperate in their identification, and then let the other civilians be identified by the conclusive person, and if anyone did not know anyone, they would be immediately imprisoned until the end of the war.

Amy watched Daqingshan be carried to the large courtyard that had been specially packed out as a temporary treatment place, and only then did she regain her sense from the gaffe just now, and walked up to the city wall with heavy steps.

Amy's clear words resounded through the sky, and everyone could clearly feel the surprising anger in them: "The two armies clashed, fighting wits and courage, although in the battle of Xilin Island, the small mercenary group was heavily damaged by the Fanos soldiers, but we always have enough respect for you, most of us believe that both the generals and soldiers in the Fanos army have abilities beyond the level. This time, we were deeply disappointed, first using crossbows to attack, then driving the civilian team to attack the city walls, and finally, hiding killers in the civilian ranks to assassinate the senior officers of the small mercenary group, and trying to use the good heart of the small mercenary group to conquer the city. I just want to ask the human soldiers involved in the operation, why are you doing this? I declare: From now on, all human soldiers who join the Fanos army, especially the humans of the Eminole Continent, are traitors to the human race. Whatever the reason, once captured by the small mercenary group, kill immediately!"

After speaking, Amy waved her hand, and finally the captured more than 20 human soldiers were pushed to the battlement, and the swordsman of the Great Swordsman Battalion raised the long sword in his hand and cut it down with force, and the human head rolled down the city wall with a grunt, and then tied the corpse with thick ropes and hung upside down from the front of the city wall to bleed to show the public.

In the sky, only the Dark Dragon Knight Chi Aotian and the Vulture Swordsman Battalion and the Fanos Dragon Warriors who had gathered behind him were facing each other. The black-haired boy made a disdainful sound in his nose, ignored the dragon knight and pseudo-dragon knight who were left in the air, turned the dragon's head and flew towards the Broken Ice Port, the young mercenary of the Vulture Swordsman Battalion of course understood the meaning of the captain's snort, and did not say anything to leave the defensive swordsman to retreat to the Broken Ice Port continuously.

The setting sun was already on the sea, and looking at the battered front and left flank, Merlin smiled bitterly and gave the order to camp in place.

In the First Battle of Broken Ice Harbor, both the small mercenary group and the Phanos Legion were severely damaged - the wounds were visible. The deputy commander of the small mercenary regiment, Aoyama, had two swords in his body and needed to recuperate for at least half a month, the Great Swordsman Battalion had 26 killed and 19 wounded - the casualties were so disparity, mainly due to the blessing of the Baifanos crossbowmen, the Berserk Knight Battalion had 4 killed and 21 wounded, the Berserker Battalion had 1 wounded and 18 wounded, the Vulture Swordsman Battalion had 1 wounded, the Swordsman Battalion had 3 wounded and 12 wounded, and the knight squad directly under the Lord of the Broken Ice Harbor suffered the destruction of the Golden Dragon Knights, killing 176 people, seriously wounding 19 people, and slightly injuring 5 people, and killing two people for disobeying the orders of their superiors。

The Phanos were no better, the four wolf warrior hundred-man detachments were wiped out in the conflict, with a total of 669 wolf warriors killed and 632 wounded, 59 heavy infantry killed and 231 wounded, 15 centaurs killed and 52 wounded, 14 human crossbowmen killed and 8 wounded, 16 knights wounded, 68 human mercenaries killed and 15 wounded, and the most distressing thing for the senior officers was the casualties of the pseudo-dragon warriors, 2 dead and 3 wounded, accounting for 60% of the number of participants. Any pseudo-dragon knight can be used by a hundred-man team, and only the clan commander has the right to call this unit in a campaign, so its value can be seen. The Phanos continent can't produce a few pseudo-dragon knights in a year.

This is not the worst for the Phanos soldiers - in the battle of the Broken Ice Port, two consecutive leaps caused the Phanos Legion to fall into its own strategic trap, and now it is difficult to ride a tiger, and it is in the northernmost part of the Eminole Continent, and it is impossible to take the Broken Ice Harbor by sneak attack, and it is impossible to break through the defense line of the small mercenary group in a short time by attacking; Even if you use the most stupid war of attrition, you can completely annihilate them, and retreat, not only is the strategy completely defeated, but also the commander of the small mercenary group has made such a vicious oath, it is still a question whether they can easily escape.

In various subsequent literatures, most people believe that the second leap of the Western Expeditionary Army was a failed strategic shift. Of course, all of this was also set up by a small mercenary group stationed in the Broken Ice Harbor, if not? Wouldn't it be a successful sneak attack.

Of course, to the delight of many professional soldiers, the small mercenary group cleverly used the sneak attacks of different troops, especially the vulture knights, and finally disrupted the defense of the Fanos soldiers and achieved their tactical goals. Some people also sighed, if the siege lords of Fanos at that time were not Merlin and Norton, in the battle of Xilin Island, the thousand-man team led by Merlin was once pierced by the sharp attack of the small mercenary group, the sharp attack power and speed comparable to that of the orcs made Merlin unforgettable in this life, for fear that the tragedy would happen again, so he repeatedly mobilized his troops- If it was an extremely stupid commander at that time, it might be much better, so many attacks by the little mercenaries are actually not true, and those who know Amy know that this kind of discounted mercenary Wang never does. If the Phanos regiment itself is not in chaos, the losses will be at least more than half.

In short, on the first day of the battle, if it weren't for the accidental sneak attack of a few small people, the performance of high-ranking Phanos generals such as Merlin and Norton would have become a brand new medal on the chest of Lord Amy.

That night, it was safe and sound, and the soldiers like Merlin and Norton, who had been promoted in the war, were quite tightly defended by the night camp, and they were originally worried that the Dark Dragon Knights and the Vulture Swordsman battalion would come to attack at night, and arranged for all the crossbowmen to sleep with their arrows. Amy and Horns also knew that even if they went for a sneak attack, nothing good would come of it, except that after night and before dawn, they sent a knight to run wildly from the front of the Fanos camp in the hope that the other party would not sleep well, and did not make any other substantial arrangements. As for whether it had the desired effect, the enemy side does not know, Amy and Horns really tossed and turned in bed and did not sleep well all night because they were worried that the Phanos legion would carry out a counter-raid on the knight troops, so they could only expect the generals of Fanos's army to be so careful, cautious, walking on thin ice, and unable to sleep.

The next day, neither side had any intention of starting a war, and the camp of the Phanos Legion was busy, and standing on the city walls, you could clearly see the young soldiers making various large siege facilities. The small mercenary group is also happy to relax, waiting for the imperial backup is just a few days, and after a day, it is closer to victory, and it saves more lives and blood for the already meager mercenary money.

By the third day, quite a number of siege engines had been prepared in the Phanos legions, and a large number of sea ships could be seen in the small bays to the south, and it was clear that the enemy wanted to unload more soldiers and supplies before the arrival of imperial reinforcements. The small mercenary group is also very cautious when they go out to scout now, and in the city, they can often hear the thunderous dragon roar from the distant sky, maybe those dragon knights are waiting nearby to prepare for an attack. Every day, Chi Aotian led at least 20 or more vulture swordsmen to patrol the city for 20 miles.

On the fourth day, Amy couldn't sit still, the expected reinforcements had not yet arrived, and even if the reinforcement generals were very cautious, they should not delay for so long. The camp in Fanos was twice as large as before.

On the fifth day, just as Amy and the others were discussing the imperial reinforcements in surprise, a little mercenary suddenly entered the council hall with a strange smile on his face and reported: "Commander, someone is looking for you and Miss Ying." ”

Not only Amy and Ying, but almost all the mercenary group cadres guessed who was coming, and everyone quickly left the meeting hall with each other's eyes.

Regarding Ying's health condition, Amy has already entered the realm of perverted concern, for fear that Miss Jīng Ling will be injured again, and this time the war comes, Ying is strictly forbidden to enter any war site. Ying also knew that her father had brought great pressure to Amy before, and the number of the little mercenary group had now exceeded 2,000, and the demand for individuals was indeed not strong, except for occasionally accompanying Amy to the council hall, she spent more time playing with the little vultures and the small earth dragons - jīng Ling loved life so much.

Qingxin stepped into the hall silently, and although his face was slightly tired from the journey compared to the previous times, his spirit was in much better condition.

Seeing the two juniors standing up to greet him, Qingxin was not polite, he sat down directly and took a few sips of tea, and after closing the lid of the cup, he suddenly said to Ying: "I want to talk to Amy alone, you go out first." ”

Amy's jīng god immediately tensed, and when she was alone with this money-loving elder, the prime-aged jīng spirit would put down the mask she was still trying to wear in front of her daughter, and put forward some extremely difficult demands to meet.

Ying glanced at Amy worriedly, bit her lip tightly, and hurried out with tears in her eyes.

"Amy, Uncle wants to ask you for a favor. For some reason, Amy once again remembered the story Ying had told him about the dark jīng spirit before, and the middle-aged jīng spirit in front of her was even darker, and there was a shiny glow.

"Uncle, you said, as long as it doesn't violate the principles, I will definitely agree. In the face of such elders, Amy Jīng was highly nervous, and it was no less than fighting a war.

"I'm here to help you. Qingxin Huang Sè's eyeballs are more protruding from the orbit, and the eyes reflect shè. Looking at Amy's puzzled expression, Qingxin spoke again: "Do you know? You mercenaries have fallen into a situation of imminent destruction! You are still waiting for reinforcements, let me tell you, this time the purpose of the Phanos Legion under the guidance of the true god was not to conquer the Ice Broken Harbor, but to use you to attract the army from the imperial headquarters to come to support......"

Airplanes......

Amy's mind was blank: using the Broken Ice Harbor as a bait prompted the Emperor ** to misjudge that the Phanos Legion would go north to attack Dìdū. On the one hand, troops were sent to feign an attack on the city, and on the other hand, troops were sent to ambush on the main road to cover the killing. As an important part of the western gate of Dìdū, the Broken Ice Port will inevitably continue to issue orders for rapid reinforcements to the nearby troops that have already been assembled...... Amy's mind flashed through the scenes of the past ten days, why did the Fanos soldiers not attack the city at all? Why did the phanos legion's camp gradually expand must be a strategy to show the enemy's strength! Why did the enemy try his best to make use of all the civilians around him, only in this way could the small mercenary group feel enough pressure......

Everything is understood.

Amy shook her head slightly, there was still something to doubt, if the enemy really didn't want to attack the city, then there was no need to arrange an ambush in the civilian ranks, if they really didn't want to attack the city, there was no need for them to attack the city on the first day, resulting in so many casualties on their own.

For the command ability of Fanos, a group of generals from the wilderness, Amy and Horns all spoke highly of it. This arrangement is even more extraordinary -- if the Phanos Legion had thought of changing its strategy from the day of its departure as soon as the sneak attack failed, from siege warfare to ambush and attack reinforcements, so as to consume the Empire's effective mobile forces, then the strategic ability of these officers really needs to be described by the words "from a high vantage"; if the strategy of temporary change in the case of an all-out sneak attack fails, it can also be called "quick with eyes and quick hands".

I don't know who the commander of the imperial army reinforcement is? If it is Uncle Chi Hanfeng, the possibility of an ambush is extremely small; if it is Grandpa Chi who is in charge, it is estimated that even if he encounters an ambush, he will not suffer a great loss; what if it is someone else? If it is himself? Will he crash into the ambush circle?

Amy shook her head lightly and slowly calmed down, at this time, no matter what, what should have happened has happened, as the head of the small mercenary group, it is better to listen to what kind of advice this father brings.

"Uncle, I thought about it, and it seems that this possibility does exist. Amy slowly poured a cup of tea for Qingxin: "Please ask uncle to teach one or two." ”

"As far as I know, tens of thousands of Phanos orcs were ambushed on both sides of the three main roads leading to the Broken Ice Port seven days ago, and it will take at least 10 days to send troops here from the hinterland of your empire, from notification to the arrival of reinforcements again, right? Qingxin looked directly at Amy with her eyes.

Without waiting for Amy to answer, Qingxin continued: "The mercenary regiment is responsible for defending the land for ten years, but that is on the premise that it can defend the reinforcements, and now that 4 days have passed, and the first batch of reinforcements has been wiped out, you will definitely not be able to wait for the second batch of reinforcements in ten days, right?"

"What do you mean?" Amy's tone became formal.

"I hope you can leave the Broken Ice Harbor early, don't stick here anymore, and don't let my daughter worry and be afraid!" Qingxin looked a little emotional.

At this time, Amy had calmed down safely, and many things were immediately answered: "Uncle, I'm afraid you're not worried about the little mercenary group and Yingying's comfort." I suppose that no matter how well the Phanos army is attacking reinforcements, even if they win, the defeated army will not have the strength to attack the city, so they have found you and want you to be a lobbyist, right?"

"That's right, what?" After the mystery was revealed, the middle-aged jīng Ling did not have any shame at all: "You are very smart, my daughter can't marry you for nothing, don't you want to pay me a million bride price?" Now you leave here immediately, they will give me 1 million gold coins. I greeted them, if you want to leave them and make way, you will not kill them all, if you want to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, they will raise their hands to welcome, at least the position of regiment commander and above. In this way, hello, I am hello, everyone, your little mercenary group can also leave safely, and my daughter can rest assured that you can live a happy life, okay?"

Amy let out a long breath: "Uncle, I'm afraid that the relationship between you and the army of another continent is not so simple, but, I won't say much here, what you said, I can't complete it, although I will have a prison arrangement for the empire, but! Uncle Qingxin, all the elders in my family are from the emperor **, and most of the mercenaries in the small mercenary group are also from the emperor **, so it is impossible for us to give up our country." There was no room for negotiation between the tones.

"Okay, that's okay!" Qingxin released the killer weapon again: "You let my daughter go with me, it has nothing to do with us whether you live or die, now what are you talking about, you live together without getting married!"

"No way! Although you are Yingying's father, I can't give her to a father who ties his daughter to money. "Amy was pushed to the edge of the cliff again.

"Well, remember, Amy, if you don't let my daughter go, you're going to die a terrible death. As soon as the words fell, the dark jīng spirit disappeared into thin air.

"Daddy......" Ying heard the angry shouts of two people outside, and the moment she ran out, she happened to see the dark jīng spirit gradually disappearing.

"Don't call me ...... Amy, you're dead, I'll see who can defend the city!"
