Chapter 45: The Pit!
The song of the soldiers of the raiding regiment also sang to Fisher's heart, but it was a pity that he was not standing on the cusp of the storm, but was pushed to the cusp. Another 500 years to live? This Fisher did not dare to think that if he could live another 500 days, Fisher should be thankful. After making up their minds with Horry, both were ready to take the plunge. They all knew that if the battle could not be routed head-on, then the battle was over. Perhaps burying your bones in this barren land is a good option, at least it is much better than fleeing back to the empire in embarrassment. The political arena of the Rex Empire has always been warm and cold, and once anyone is unlucky, you don't have to expect anyone to stand up to help you, they will only fall into the ground.
"As you can see, the goal of our trip is that the enemies of our empire will be proud to show their might before us!" Fisher gathered all his warriors for this last desperate gamble, and then began to give what was probably his last pre-battle speech: "Tell me, brothers, will you tolerate the existence of these enemies who desecrate the glory of the Empire?
At Fisher's call, the Rex warriors, who already felt that they were at the end of their rope, tightened their grip on their weapons again. Fighting for the country has always been the highest honor of a soldier. Even if this situation is like this, it will not affect the blood in the hearts of these Rex people. They were deeply defeated, but they felt more unwilling! It wasn't like that from the beginning, they were the most powerful empire in the Pan-American continent, the most powerful people, and they were the proud Rex. It's just a bunch of robbers and bandits who didn't even think they would lose. Even now, they still can't get back to this sense. Even if they had already fought with the raiders, these proud Rex people still didn't think that they should be the ones who lost, after all, there were only more than a thousand people on the other side. It's as if they've been pressed to the ground and beaten up now, but they can't even return their hands, and they can't stand it on ordinary people, let alone their proud Rexes. In Fisher's passionate and star-spitting speech, they were all in high spirits. Never say die, this is also the highest spirit passed down from generation to generation by the Rex people, and this final battle is inevitable. It wasn't hard for them to decide whether to fall one by one under the chase of the hillbilly bandits or to shed their last drop of blood on the way of the charge.
"For the Rex Empire! For the glory of the God of Light!" the rex roared like a tsunami from the heights. Fisher's pre-war mobilization is really a bit of an otherworldly version of the momentum of a shipwreck, at least these Rex people have been completely ignited by him, this kind of dying team, often has great lethality.
It is also until now that the raiding regiment that has been acting like a fool has also become rare and serious. After waiting for so long, it seems that these Rex people have finally figured it out. After seeing the Rex people rushing down from the high ground, Captain Cao and a large group of hooligans finally cheered up a little, but they were still so scattered, one by one, they didn't stand in front of each other, it didn't look like they were preparing for a decisive battle with the other party, but like watching the excitement as spectators.
"Damn! I thought these guys could be delayed for a few days, and they wanted to die so soon?" Barkley smirked and pulled a large handful of gold coins out of his arms, and then reluctantly stuffed them into the smiling Curry's hand. Buckley thought that the Rex people were too frightened to confront the raiders, and he lost the gamble.
There is only a distance of hundreds of meters between the two sides, which can be said to be a matter of moments, but Captain Cao waved his hand and signaled everyone to be calm. Captain Cao snapped his fingers, and the little beast Wangcai didn't know where it came from, and Captain Cao turned over and sat cross-legged on Wangcai's head in a chic manner. Under the care of Ducasse and a group of Michelins, this little beast has entered a state of savage growth, and now it is more than two meters tall, and the bloated fat meat before has long since disappeared, and it can be seen from its bulging scales that this little beast is now a lump of flesh. Even with something weighing hundreds of pounds on his back, this little beast can run as fast as a dog.
The only regret is that it seems to only use one of its wings as an ornament, and does not like to fly high, relying more on its two paws to fly on the ground. In the words of Captain Cao, the little beast ran like a crazy penguin. But it doesn't matter, Captain Cao is a pragmatist, as long as he is not too lazy to only know how to eat, drink and Lazar every day. Barkley had already tried to push Wangcai into a corner, but Wangcai was still stubborn. Even if it was kicked off the edge of a cliff by Barkley, it would not open its wings and flap it twice until it was almost close to the ground, and it would not try to fly at all. Barkley was already very disappointed in this cheap brother, and he felt that Wangcai was suffering from a terminal disease called "fear of heights". Old Man Ao felt that this was not the case, he thought that this little beast was very spiritual, and it could even be said that he was extremely cunning.
Why? Because the old man Ao, who has always had the habit of getting up early, has seen the picture of Wangcai flying high, where is this little beast afraid of heights. It doesn't want to fly, even if it's the king of heaven, he can't do anything about it. If you want it to soar into the blue sky, no one can force it unless it wants to. As far as Wangcai's strong physical fitness is concerned, it should be no problem to fly dozens of meters in the air with Captain Cao, it is just a matter of whether it is willing or not. Because of Captain Cao's indulgence in it, this little beast also has feelings of advocating freedom, so it is unwilling to become a foil for the Barkley Blue Sky Knight. If Barkley had known that it could fly, wouldn't he have to carry a large lump of meat weighing more than half a ton as a coolie every day? From time to time, this little beast would take some game that he didn't know where to hunt to please Old Man Ao, but the old man didn't try to poke it. In the entire plundering group, this little beast just listened to Captain Cao's words.
Wangcai rode the deformed penguin with a frenzied pace and rushed with Captain Cao, this combination of man and beast was indescribably weird. Captain Cao held his hand into a trumpet shape and yelled at the Rex people with a big grin: "I know you are all scared to pee your pants, but please at least send a few people with dry pants to play? I know that you are desperate, but at least a few people who can pray to guard us! Do you still plan to scare people with this kind of style?"
Captain Cao's voice was not ordinarily loud, and the Rex people were stunned when they heard it. Fisher clenched his fists even more, and said: "Sure enough, he likes to play with his mouth as much as the legend says, no wonder so many famous families in our Rex Empire hate this guy to the core, and even offer a reward for this guy's tongue!"
Before the battle began, it was already a tradition of the raiding regiments to start the battle with mouth cannons. Captain Cao was still unaware of it, and the prosperity under his crotch had drifted to a limit, and Captain Cao's words came from afar: "I'm sorry, guests of Rex, we slapped you in the face again! Please accept my belated greetings, foreign friends who have come to the Exiled Domain, welcome! Here, you only need to know one thing, you are your grandson." And I'm your grandfather!"
Commander Cao's superb riding skills and arrogant rhetoric suddenly caused the scum of the plundering regiment to laugh, and it was estimated that there was only Commander Cao who was so ignorant of the inspection and grandstanding in front of the two armies. Horry clenched the knight's spear in his hand and said to Fisher with a serious face: "General, give the order! I really want to jump up and smoke him!"
Fisher no longer hesitated, he would no longer allow these cunning opponents to use all sorts of bizarre tactics to undermine their hard-earned morale. Fisher raised the long sword in his hand and pointed forward suddenly, Horry also raised his spear, and the four thousand heavily armed iron horsemen lined up in front of the military formation suddenly shouted in unison, like a torrent of steel, swept towards the head of Cao, who was showing off his might. Fisher succeeded in turning these heavily armed knights into a frenzied rage, and struck directly at Commander Cao, the most dominant bandit leader in the exiled realm.
"My good man! It's really amazing...... "Captain Cao screamed strangely, patted Wangcai's head, Wangcai's little beast suddenly understood, turned his butt and ran towards the base camp on two legs. This little beast is used to seeing big scenes, but he has never seen such a huge momentum. I have to say that the charge of the heavy cavalry of the Rex Empire is really not blown, and the torrent of steel behind Commander Cao's ass Even under this crazy charge, the front-line cavalry at the forefront of them still maintains almost the same pace, looking down from a high altitude, it is a straight line. Without thousands of trainings, it is absolutely impossible to achieve such an effect, and you can't do it if you don't accept it. Commander Cao is inevitably a little obscene, if he can arm such a team of local tyrants when he can do it, how imposing should he be when he takes it out?
This picture is like the head of Cao alone being chased and killed by thousands of thugs armed into steel cans, which is enough to move anyone. As for the soldiers of the raiding regiment? They still did not look serious at all, and when they saw that their boss was being chased and killed by others, they stood indifferently in place, and even gathered together in groups of three or five crookedly to discuss whether the boss's running posture was coquettish enough, and whether it was bewitching. It seems that the torrent of steel of the Rex people is nothing in their eyes.
The enemy is marching wildly, and the raiders are talking and laughing, and the contrast between the two sides is stark, like a ferocious rough man in the boxing ring throwing a super punch at a vegetative man on the other side who doesn't know what is wrong. Many people know that the fierce initiative has always been the label of the raiding group, but today the script has been completely reversed.
"It's just a hillbilly, I don't think they've ever had any experience with hoplites. At such a distance, there was no defensive posture, and by the time they really wanted to resist, it was already too late! With his knowledge of the warriors under his command, such a judgment is not difficult to come by. The hoplite charge is the king of the cold weapon battlefield, once caught up in their charge at close range, even if it is an orc army, it is definitely a disaster, and Horry has such confidence.
"No!General Horry, hurry up and let them stop the pursuit!" Fisher's face suddenly changed at this time, perhaps because he saw the banning expressions on the faces of those raiders of the raiding group, or maybe he thought of the truth that there must be demons when things go wrong, and an extremely bad feeling suddenly appeared in his heart!
"Why stop the charge? they're finished!" Horry not only ignored Fisher's orders, but even his eyes were already red, at this time, even if he wanted to restrain the heavy knights' swarm charge, how could he just do it.
As soon as Horry's words fell, suddenly the scene changed dramatically, and only a loud bang was heard, and the Rex cavalry who were rushing to the front suddenly disappeared! On the road they charged, a huge ravine suddenly appeared several feet deep and several feet wide! And it was two or three hundred meters long, and no one knew how this ravine came out, almost wider than the shock lineup of these Rex hoplites, and those Rex hoplites who rushed to the front smashed into it in unison. Under such impact and inertia, coupled with the weight of their bodies, as long as they fall, even if they are not dead, they will be crippled!
Their charge is indeed indomitable, and it is not easy to stop once the charge begins. The charge of the hoplites has always been aimed at penetrating the enemy line, and is not as agile as the light cavalry. Even if the people who came behind discovered this change and wanted to rein in the horse's reins, the inertia was not so easy to control, and they could only plunge headlong into this sudden pit in despair. Even if he was lucky enough to rein in the horse's reins, he was directly knocked into the pit by his companions who followed behind. It's like drag racing, the person in front brakes sharply without warning, and the person behind can't react at all! )
