6. The Decisive Battle of the Wild Sands Chapter 3002 The Expected Failure
There are many paradoxical things in the world, for example: people often want to close themselves off, but they want to open up to others.
Therefore, there is such a strange thing as wine in this world. It seems that most people want to drink what is in the cup and speak from the bottom of their hearts.
It was impossible to tell if it was a true word or not, but after a few glasses of spirits, Dennis spoke a little more. I saw that he saluted a few more rounds, sighed a little irritably, and said, "The recent battle situation is really disappointing, those mediocre talents are useless except for whitewashing their failures, which is really disappointing." ”
Craigie also shook his head and said, "I heard that the last time the leader of Ryan led his troops out, he didn't attack the Red Pavilion at all, but just went to loot a few surrounding villages. Just like that, he was injured by a barbarian woman. ”
Heru sneered, "Ryan and the like are just one of Jamie's doglegs." It's okay to help Jamie bark a few times, and still think about going out to fight for merit, it's better than a lame alpaca, at least he can come back with some goods. ”
Dennis said casually, "Jamie is timid and narrow-minded. I don't believe in the people he proposes. ”
Heru snorted, "Jamie is a bastard, is Issam some kind of smart guy?" If he hadn't listened and believed, how could he have the situation he is in today? ”
Craigie took over, "I heard that the Isam Alliance Lord sent the 'Wolf King Loxia' to attack the 'Crown Mausoleum', I don't know how the battle went?" ”
Cabal on the side shook his head disdainfully and said, "Although the leader of Loxia has a dual cultivation of soul and martial arts, I think he is a self-contained person, who only cares about the little family business in his clan. It's okay to stick to one side, let him go and expand the territory......"
He laughed playfully a few times, and the others immediately understood, and their faces were filled with bold smiles in the mellow aroma of the wine.
Heru was drunk and asked Zahir: "You have just met His Majesty Hamid, did he say anything about this war?" ”
Zahir thought for a moment and replied truthfully: "Your Majesty did not mention the recent battle situation, but only said that he planned to go on a personal expedition. ”
"His body can't stand this kind of toss." Craigie frowned, "I'm afraid he can't stand the perfunctory attitude of the Isam Alliance, and he wants to force him to go to the front line to fight." ”
Cabal scoffed, "Even if he goes to the front, he won't fight." At most, send 'Ghost of the Desert: Latin America' to take the lead. ”
Dennis frowned, "I thought he would send Nabino, and I remember that His Highness Hamid admired him too.
Zahir remembered the long stick that breathed fire at both ends, and this man was indeed extraordinary.
Heru snorted, "Issam is not a good person either. The tribes of Latin America and the Soviet Union are fierce, and Issam, the leader of the alliance, will be taken away by him at any time. If there is really a hard bone, he will definitely let Ramiso touch a few nails first to wear off some strength. ”
It seems that the so-called "eighteen tribes" have nominally formed an alliance, but in fact they are still scattered.
Now that they still have internal strife, Zahir has more opportunities to jump sideways from side to side.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile smugly.
.
On the other side of the desert, the sun is shining high in the sky, scorching the earth. On the towering walls of the Crown Mausoleum, several officers of the Red Pavilion were following their unknown consul through the city's defenses.
It was once rumored that his name was "Red Dragon", but he firmly denied it, repeatedly emphasizing that it was the name of a sword.
Later, people tried to use various titles such as "that man", "big sword man", "fanatical believer of the princess", "Mira's boyfriend", etc. There are so many titles that there are so many names that seventeen or eighteen non-existent figures appear in one breath at a military meeting.
In the end, everyone unified the title in the dark, and together they used "boss" to refer to this strange archon with no name.
"Boss, according to reliable sources, Ryan seems to have withdrawn." A subordinate reported.
The young man sneered, "Ryan, this guy is a master of sloping horses, where does he know how to fight." When they saw our fortress, they were so frightened that they retreated. ”
Beside him stood a tall barbarian woman with piercing eyes, none other than Mira of the Korsun tribe. With the help of Buxiao, her people broke free from the shackles of "heavenly punishment", and now the spikes on their skin have fallen off, and their skin color is no different from that of ordinary people.
She handed the jug to the young man, watched him take a few sips, and said, "If he really retreats, I will let him go." He's going to raid nearby villages......"
The young man moistened his throat and snorted coldly: "The scum in this desert, I thought that they were all sand people, and they would not attack the civilians. I didn't expect it to be full of bandits, killing and looting. ”
"Don't be angry." "I've arranged a sentry post on the outskirts of the village. If anyone dares to attack, my steel fork will pierce his head! ”
The young man looked at Mira's side face with admiration, this brave and fearless barbarian girl was not only skilled in tactics, but also had a good sense of tactics.
Mira continued: "I have arranged for a few vacant houses to be manned with sentinels, who will take turns to look out. As soon as a threat is detected, it immediately signals a smoke pill. At the same time, the militia of the village will quickly assemble and use the fortifications to defend the enemy army in the first wave. ”
The young man nodded in approval: "After receiving the warning, how long will it take for us to send troops?" ”
"Five minutes." "Unless the enemy approaches the village from the moment they first discover it, at the speed of a rapid charge of light cavalry," said Mira. Otherwise, they will definitely not be as fast as us. ”
The young man was a little surprised, "Can it be prepared so quickly?" ”
"Why don't we try?" Mira's gaze looked into the distance of the vast desert, and a warning smoking pill had appeared in the distance.
The bell rang immediately, and dozens of attendants quickly pulled out the alpacas. Dozens of horsemen immediately dressed up neatly, took up their weapons and jumped on their mounts. The war drums thundered, the gates of the fortress opened, and the cavalry galloped towards the wolf smoke.
Immediately after that, the bugle sounded three times in succession, and the infantry of 500 men was ready. As soon as Mira and the others walked down the wall, an attendant brought an alpaca.
The young man stepped onto the alpaca, watched Mila follow closely behind, and praised: "Thanks to you, everything was arranged just right by you." ”
Mira's face flushed slightly, "There are two minutes left." ”
"Okay." The young man tugged at the reins, "Let's go, let's see which one is not afraid of death who came to challenge the prestige of the Red Pavilion!" ”
……
Another leader of the tribe, known as "Loxia the Wolf King", is riding an alpaca and leading his clan's warriors to the battlefield.
He didn't want to participate in the alliance of the "Eighteen Tribes", and he didn't want to hear the story of the prince who seemed to be going to die of illness at any time.
However, Prince Hamid gave too much, and he really couldn't refuse.
"It's just a gang of 'Red Pavilion' bandits, I've fought with them several times, it's just a bunch of waste." Before leaving, he boasted in front of Prince Hamid.
The leader of the Isam League is naturally a fool, and Ryan is even more of a straw bale. He knew all this, so he wasn't surprised to hear that Ryan was injured. Only one thing caught his attention.
"The one who wounded Ryan was a barbarian?" He privately asked the herald to inquire about it.
After the herald got two jugs of wine, he also knew everything: "Leader Loxia is indeed a barbarian, and she uses the throwing steel fork commonly used by barbarians. ”
Luo Xia's mind suddenly felt a little confused, he only knew that after the eighteen tribes parted ways with the Red Pavilion, the disfigured Chishuiwan Holy Maiden became the leader of the Red Pavilion.
How could the holy woman Shamanli, who lives in Chishui Bay, hook up with the barbarians in the jungle?
"Wolf King, there is a situation ahead!" The lieutenant next to him reminded loudly and pulled him out of his memories.
Loxia held the alpaca and stared at it, and wolf smoke wafted over the village in the distance. Outside the village, horses and improvised fortifications were erected, and dozens of villagers dressed as craftsmen, farmers, and cooks stood far behind the horses with spears on their shoulders.
Luo Xia sneered, "This is the Red Pavilion's armament? Ryan was defeated by this rabble? This is simply a disgrace to the clan. ”
With that, he shouted loudly, "Ahead is the territory of the Red Pavilion, who wants to go up and clear those ants that are in the way?" ”
A bald general next to him hurriedly rode an alpaca forward, "I am willing to take the first step and check the reality of the enemy." ”
Actually, there's nothing to check at all. The terrain in the desert was mostly flat, and the village in front of me, with its many houses, could not hide any ambush unless they had dug a hole in the ground beforehand and hid hundreds of soldiers inside.
The bald general was anxious to fight for success, and Loxia naturally knew his intentions. A smile smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Go, take two hundred people, and kill them all for me." If you run away, you won't be rewarded. ”
Two hundred people went to arrest dozens of people, and the bald general was as happy as if he had just gone out and picked up a money bag. With a shout, two hundred men armed with scimitars, tomahawks, and maces...... There were all kinds of weapons, and they rushed forward with the bald head.
Behind the village fortifications, more than a dozen crossbow guns suddenly rose and fired at the soldiers led by the bald general. These crossbows are all special repeating crossbows made by the Red Pavilion, which can fire ten arrows at a time, and those soldiers were beaten by a rain of arrows like locusts as soon as they rushed halfway.
The screams spread rapidly with the dead and wounded, and the bald general hurriedly shouted: "Don't panic, rush over!" ”
The crossbowmen were most afraid of the cavalry getting close, and once they got close, he was sure that he would split the heads of the dozen or so crossbowmen in half!
The bald general kicked his mount violently, and the alpaca immediately spread its hooves and rushed towards the village of the Red Pavilion like a puff of smoke.
He rushed so hard and fast that he didn't seem to see a few large trucks parked behind the militiamen.
Only a whistle was heard on the other side, and the camouflage on the flatbed was lifted, revealing a fully wound bed crossbow.
"Launch!"
I don't know who gave the order to shoot, the bald general only felt a chill in his chest, and his body had been pierced by two short spears!
Seeing that the general was killed in battle, the soldiers immediately disorganized, threw away their armor, and fled in all directions.
