When Gaida and Du Wei approached the strange cavalry, they all immediately stood up, and Huo Ran formed a defensive line, the hands of the soldiers at the front were already pressed on the hilt of their swords.

"Presumptuous, this is our Duke Tulip!" Gaida snapped, "Please come out of your captain!"

A middle-aged man immediately walked out of the crowd, this was a knight wearing imperial armor, medium stature, but he looked very sturdy, he strode up, turned around and said steadily: "All retreat, put down your weapons, and rest on the spot." ”

As he spoke, he walked up to Du Wei, beat his chest with one hand, and performed a knightly etiquette: "Commander of the Third Cavalry Battalion of the Second Jǐng Reserve Division of the Bohan Provincial Garrison Army, Aroor, salute you!

Du Wei nodded, looking carefully at the officer who called himself Aror.

The cavalry commander was a middle- and low-level officer in the imperial military system, commanding about a thousand cavalry. Looking at this guy's calm bearing, and the knight badge on his chest is level four, his strength is already quite good.

"Your Excellency the Knight of Aror, please tell me what you are here for. Du Wei was still a little jealous of the Governor of Bohan, the relationship between the two sides was not quite right, when he came to the northwest, the other party also gave him a hand, and the relationship between everyone was very stiff. At this time, the garrison of Nulin Province crossed the border and came to their territory...... Is it good or bad?

"Your Excellency. "This Alor is clearly of the kind of person who does things steadily, and he has a faint tiredness on his face. His voice was a little hoarse, but he was still full of energy: "I am here on the orders of Governor Bohan. ”

After a pause, he said, "Our Second Jǐng Beishi Regiment has been stationed on the border of the two provinces, and we have been moving more frequently during the recent chūn season cāo performance...... You should understand the purpose, my lord......"

Du Wei smiled.

Of course, he understood that it was to guard against the Northwest Army.

Speaking of which, Governor Bohan is also quite pitiful, the base camp of the Northwest Army is actually located. In the territory of the province of Nulin, which was under the jurisdiction of the governor of Bohan, although Bohan claimed to be the governor of a province. But because the Northwest Army was within the jurisdiction of other places, the strength of the Northwest Army was spoken. Bohan's decree could only cover half of the province of Nulin, and the other half was in fact under the control of the Northwest Army.

Therefore, Bohan was particularly annoyed that Du Wei came to the northwest, because the province of Desa was originally his territory, but it was "taken away" by Du Wei, yes, he is the governor. Now there is only half of the province in hand.

In this chūn season cāo exercise, the Northwest Army was frequently moved, and Bohan naturally did not let his garrison be idle.

"My lord, we received word two days ago that there had been traces of the steppe cavalry in your territory! The situation was urgent. I've heard of steppe cavalry troops haunting your territory, and we've heard of traces of steppe people in at least three locations. Governor Bohan has sent a letter to you...... However, the letter was sent to Loulan City...... Now it seems. Since you're here, you've probably never received that letter. Our Governor-General said that the military situation is urgent, and we can't afford to stick to the rules. And he knows that you have just come to the northwest, and the military strength in your hands is tight, and I am afraid that it will not be enough to quell this sneak attack by the steppe people. Therefore, I did not have time to get your permission, so I first sent a cavalry regiment under our second Jǐng Reserve Regiment to cross the border lightly, and searched for the traces of the steppe people in four ways in units of thousands of people. ”

Speaking of this, the Yalor knight glanced at Du Wei: "The matter is urgent, although the rash crossing is a bit rude, but the overall situation is important......"

Du Wei waved his hand, and a sincere smile already appeared on his face: "Okay, Knight Yaror, you don't need to say more. I'm so grateful to you for what you've brought! Governor Bohan is right, the big picture is important, let's put those rules first!"

Du Wei couldn't help but sigh in his heart, although this Bohan Governor is a little small and a little too rigid in authority, but from the overall situation, he is still a capable minister who is truly for the empire.

At least knowing that Du Wei was in an emergency, he did not hesitate to send troops to help, without the slightest concern about the previous two families, such a move was enough to win Du Wei's respect again.

If it were a different bastard, I'm afraid that even if I didn't fall into the well at this time, I would have hid and gloated.

Looking at this Aror knight, Du Wei suddenly found that his number was only five or six hundred, and many soldiers still had scars on their armor, and there were faint blood marks on their swords: "You ......"

Alor said lightly: "My lord, we crossed the border two days ago, all the way here, on the way we met a group of steppe cavalry, the two sides fought, fortunately the other side is not many in number, we beat the other side back." Last night, I met Commander Gaida on the road, and I followed him here. ”

Although he said it lightly, almost all of these soldiers were wounded, and judging by the blood stains on their bodies, it must have been a fierce battle. And...... From a thousand-man team, the number of people reduced to only five or six hundred, such casualties and losses cannot be said to be heavy!

Du Wei silently looked at these cavalry of Nulin Province, although they stood there silently, but everyone's face showed a resolute expression, and some of them had blood on their faces, and some of them were still wounded.

"We have lost more than 300 brothers, and some who have been seriously wounded, so as not to affect the mobility of the team, I have sent them back in advance. Alor's voice was a little muffled.

Du Wei couldn't help but be a little moved in his heart, and suddenly bowed deeply to these people, and said in a deep voice: "The Tulip family will definitely remember your army's help today!"

"You're welcome, Lord Duke. The Aror knight groaned slightly. Said slowly: "Our Lord Governor said it...... All for the Empire!"

At a critical time, he let go of small grievances and put state affairs first, and such a move made Du Wei's perception of the governor of Bohan suddenly change greatly.

"There's no wine here, Knight of Aror, but I promise that tonight we'll enter Gilliat in triumph, when the time comes. I will personally feast the warriors of Nulin Province and get drunk together for three days!"

After speaking. Du Wei asked Gaida to take care of the local garrison cavalry of Nurin, but he gathered twenty-eight magic students himself. Quietly leaving the woods, he made his way back in a low-lying terrain about a mile away from the woods.

Whoa......

Du Wei took off his magician's robe, untied the magic baggage sewn inside, and fell down with both hands.

All the students looked at the esteemed Dean in amazement, and poured out the storage props......

A bunch of brooms!

That's right, a bunch of brooms! dozens of brooms. Piled on the ground.

The landed people couldn't help but be stunned, why did the dean take out so many brooms?

"These will be your ......' mounts, come and try your new mounts!" Dewey announced, "Pick one for each...... Don't pick, just grab a handful, these things are all the same. ”

When the students all picked up the broom with a strange look and each of them had a handful, Du Wei also picked one in his hand.

"The method used is simple. See that six-pointed star on the broomstick's head? Inject magic! Yes, just like you use a wand! Everybody can try it, but not too fast and too hard. Unless you want to break your head......! Ride on it and tuck it under your crotch...... ...... like me"

Saying that, Du Wei has already demonstrated it himself...... I have to say that he himself is a little nervous, because this thing is the first time he has fiddled with it, and in the city of Gilliat, he has not had time to use it.

"Like me...... Infused with magic ...... Then, with a slight glaring of his legs, ......"

After saying this, in the eyes of all the students, they looked at their dean, and even people with brooms, like a meteor, rose from the ground......

Du Wei's last voice was a short, as if it was an exclamation in his throat......

"Ahh

Immediately there was a thud on the ground, and in a moment Du Wei disappeared! Above the sky, a figure rushed straight into the distance at a speed that was almost invisible, leaving only a series of exclamations at the end......

"What is the Dean doing?" some of the students stared blankly at the sky.

"I don't know...... But he's flying so fast......"

——————————￣————————￣―

When Du Wei flew back from afar, his hat had already been blown away by the wind!

Hell, the speed at which he injected his magic power was too fast and too fierce! The broom was out of control just now, and it flew straight out, if it weren't for Du Wei's quick reaction, he almost didn't hit his head on a mountain bag in the distance.

However, by the time he returned, he had quickly mastered the method of cāo.

When he landed, he calmed down and said, "Did you see it...... What you have in your hands can make you fly! without any spells, it's a flying magic item. ”

All the students were immediately interested.

"Ahem...... But be careful, at the beginning, the injection of magic power should be light and slow!, otherwise, ......" Du Wei said this, paused, a little embarrassed: "It will be the same as me just now." Okay, now you guys try it! Remember, hold the broom handle, pull it up to go up, press down to go down, and I don't need to teach you left and right, right? and...... The more mana you infuse, the faster it will be!"

——————————￣————————————

It's really not difficult to make this thing, at least what makes Du Wei depressed is when these students test the flight. There wasn't a single person who flew out like he had just done.

Perhaps, because the students' own magic level is not too high, and Du Wei's magic is relatively too strong.

In an hour, the trainees were already able to control simple flights, and some of them were able to do seemingly arrogant dive maneuvers.

I have to say, these guys are really talented. Gargamel was right, "If you can ride a horse, you'll ride this thing." ”

"Alright, everyone, be quiet!"

When the students returned from an hour-long test flight, they saw the place where the dean was standing, surrounded by piles of black clay pots. Each clay pot is sealed. And there is something that looks like a flower vine is inserted in the mouth.

"What I'm going to say next is very important!" Du Wei looked at everyone, "I'm not going to give you these broomsticks, ......it's not fun!" You will ride on him. I'm going to take you with me! This operation is very dangerous! Someone is likely to die! If you want to quit now, I can approve it. Because you are only my students, not the warriors of my family. You are not obligated to die for me. ”

No one spoke.

Du Wei was very satisfied, and looked at the group of students with emotion: "Now, looking at this thing in my hand, this is not an ordinary clay pot...... It's a lethal weapon!"

After saying that, Du Wei lightly lit a flower vine, and then threw the clay pot out as hard as he could......

When a loud roar and explosion came. Shock was written all over everyone's face!

Such a clay pot filled with gunpowder, ignited the fuse and threw it out, dozens of meters away, the fire that erupted was enough to be comparable to the fire magic of a low-level magician!

A shallow crater has been blown out of the ground!

"From now on, you will be my first ......," Du Wei said. There was a deliberate pause: "Air combat army!" for short...... Ladies and gentlemen, remember this day, because your presence will be of epoch-making significance to this continent! Because of you, the way of war will change dramatically!"

The students were silent for a while, and soon, everyone had excited expressions on their faces!

"This evening, we will ride these broomsticks and fly to the heads of those steppe people, and then in the sky, throw these clay pots down and blow up the heads of those steppe wolves!!" Du Wei roared loudly: "You are the first air combat army on this continent...... Therefore, you will have a resounding name! Henceforth any enemy will tremble when he hears your name, and he will tremble for it, and he will tremble for it!!!

"My lord, what's our number!" Ziggy couldn't help but ask excitedly.

Du Wei smiled lightly, his smile was very dangerous......

——————————￣————￣

As the sun began to set in the west, Robert Knight felt like he had squeezed the last of his strength.

Just now, the steppe people launched one last frantic attack, and this attack made Robert's men almost unable to hold on. Luckily, Du Wei killed the other party's shaman last night!

Looking at the corpses left under the city walls, Robert let out a sigh.

Fortunately, the morale of the soldiers is still strong, and Du Wei's feat last night is really a very uplifting move. Now everyone has developed an almost fanatical trust in the Duke.

Less than a third of the soldiers remained above the city walls, and Robert knew that the final hour had come!

When the last rays of the setting sun shone obliquely, he ordered the beacon fire above the city wall to be lit! The raging flames burned under the tulip flag, and from a distance, the tulips on the banner were in full bloom in the flames!

Hunting in the evening breeze, Du Wei was already standing silently on a hillside not far behind the steppe people, he quietly looked at the steppe people who retreated like water, looked at the queue of the black pressed steppe people, and looked at the dense tents of the other party...... Swords are like forests, arrays are like mountains......

He took a deep breath, and then suddenly his body floated high, and he suddenly opened his arms in mid-air, and roared: "Let's go! Destroy the enemy tonight!!" Behind him, in a row of black pressure, twenty-eight magic students rode on broomsticks, levitating behind Du Wei!

A sinister smile flashed at the corner of Du Wei's mouth, and then he suddenly shouted:

"Decepticons!!"
