93 Northern Expedition preparations
Sodeeth immediately saw Anka's worries when he came to him.
Sodeeth came to the front of the map and turned to ask, "Is Mr. Ankh worried about how to unify Caddes quickly?" ”
Ankh nodded in response, "They are moving faster than I expected, if we advance quickly to the target mountain range, then we are likely to face the blockage of countless soldiers and fortifications, and we are likely to be dragged there, and we may even be surrounded." ”
"Do you want better weapons that can be equipped on a large scale?"
Ankh nodded, looking at the map in silence.
Sodeis smiled and said, "I've been working on new weapons lately. ”
"What is it like?"
Sodeis smiled and pulled out two iron pipes from his bag, but they didn't look the same.
Ankha asked, "What is this?" ”
"I call it the Trumpet Cannon and the Dragon's Breath."
After speaking, he took out a horn-like iron pipe and aimed it at the wooden stake outside the door, pulled the trigger, and with a bang, an iron ball shot out and smashed on the wooden stake.
Ankka opened his mouth and clapped and said, "It's okay! ”
Then Sodeeth took out the iron ball and put it in from the front, and then pulled back and forth the switch at the rear.
Ankha asked, "What's going on?" ”
"I'm playing!"
After hearing this, Anka directly lost interest and said, "By the time you got on the bullet, the other party had already rushed over." ”
"I have one more!"
After speaking, Sodeyith took out another iron pipe connected to the vat, and as Sodeyith ignited a small piece of gel in front of him and pulled the trigger, a tongue of fire more than ten meters quickly erupted.
Ankha asked, "How long will this last?"
"A bucket of ten minutes, the material is very good, and it can be used after gelling."
"It would be nice if it was more convenient to carry and have a better range."
"I'll try."
"Please go to mass production! This kind of thing must be very useful in the face of those mountain fortifications. ”
"There is no need to produce it, I have already led people to produce three hundred of these weapons in the past few days."
"Well, tonight you go test and see if there are any problems, I'll go see what those soldiers are doing."
"Try it tonight? Do you want to leave tomorrow? ”
Ankka nodded in response, and Sodeis showed a look of joy on the surface.
Before leaving, Sodeis said, "I want to see with my own eyes the transformation of those Kalans into roasted meat. ”
Anka then walked in front of the soldiers who were training.
After stopping the paladin who wanted to salute, he asked, "Have all the equipment captured last time been repaired?" ”
"Three thousand pairs of half-body armor, five thousand spears, three hundred crossbows and tens of thousands of arrows, if I were their commander, I would definitely be angry."
"Can you distribute this equipment to them?"
The paladin asked excitedly, "Are you going to leave again?" ”
Ankh nodded in response, "You can't always be passive!" ”
Before leaving, Ankh said, "Go and select three thousand men and let those who shoot accurately take the crossbows." ”
"What about the rest? Recently, more and more people have become soldiers. ”
"The rest will stay here and assist the upcoming Santa Seca in supporting the construction work, as well as improving the censorship body as much as possible, we can't let anyone come over as a soldier in the future."
"Yes!"
After saying that, Anka looked at the moon and said, "I'll go back first, you should rest too!" ”
(Northern Plains)
On a northern plain, the naked officer shivered on the ground.
After some Kahlan soldiers found him, they led him to a young girl riding a tall horse.
The girl said, "Can't you either?" ”
"Sorry ...... sir"
Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped on the ground by a strong man leading a horse beside the girl.
"Useless waste, what do you write on you?"
"This is, this is ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was hacked to death by the strong man in front of him.
"It's a shame."
At this time, a young man came from behind and said, "Oh? Retribution for the invasion! ”
The strong man stepped forward and wanted to slap him, but was stopped by the girl and said, "Although he is just a messenger, you really dare to beat him?" Get your pig brain moving! ”
The strong man said to the young man, "Hmph, if it weren't for your family, I would have killed you a long time ago." ”
The young man rolled his eyes and said, "You can kill your own people at will, and this country is almost over." ”
"You!"
The strong man drew his sword and was about to cut it down, but the girl jumped down directly and stopped it with her shield and said, "Stop." ”
The strong man threw down his sword and shouted, "Princess, why do you want to protect this kid all the time? ”
"He is a messenger appointed by his father himself, and if you kill him, you will not escape death."
The girl picked up the saber and threw it at him and said, "Calm down! Save your strength for the battlefield, and he and I will return home tomorrow, and I would like to see you take that man's head and send it back home. ”
"My lord, I will live up to your expectations, and if I can't defend it, then I will die for my country."
The next day, Ankka stretched his waist and sneezed a few times and said, "Why do you feel so cold today!" ”
After saying that, he walked out and found that the prepared Northern Expedition troops had gathered in front of the door and were ready to go, and the paladin brought a piece of jerky and milk after seeing Anka get up.
Ankh was taken by the paladin on a white horse after devouring it.
Ankka walked at the front of the line blinking as if he hadn't woken up, and the soldiers were all excited to say goodbye to their families, and as the team marched, the residents on both sides of the road delivered the best things they had found.
After leaving the city, Sodeyith stepped forward and pointed to the north and said, "Mr. Anka, ahead is the city headed by Commander Karan, who is known as the Iron General, and through there is our destination, the Western Mountains. ”
Anka asked, "Is he strong?" ”
"His personal bravery is definitely not as good as yours, but his combat experience is something you need to learn and absorb, and he is good at siege warfare and defense warfare, which will be a hard bone."
"Can we take a walk to get the word out that the Cades in that city will revolt in support of our attacks from the outside?"
"There are some difficulties, I heard that the practice is that the Kades traitors manage the Kades, the policy is extremely strict, the Kades women even need to wrap themselves tightly to avoid being spoiled by some disgusting Karan soldiers and puppet government soldiers, and the men also need to be careful for fear of being sold abroad on any charge, and it is not allowed to go out after 18 o'clock at night, and I heard that in order to avoid the appearance of resistance, every household has even a knife to report, and I heard that there are only five hundred kitchen knives in the whole city."
Ankh shook her head angrily and said, "I won't accept their surrender this time." ”
After saying that, Ankh asked, "How many of them are there?" ”
"The puppet army is 70,000 and the Kalan people are 10,000, and most of the people defending the city are the puppet army, and the Kalan people only have 1,000 people, and the rest of the Karan people seem to be hiding in the fortifications of the mountains behind."
"Hurry up!"
