Chapter 500: The Battle of Star Lake (1)
,
When the half-orcs saw the situation in front of them, their frightened hearts were slammed, and they saw countless battle flags flying and fluttering in the words on the opposite side.
The loud sound of military trumpets resounded one after another, resounding throughout the earth.
The heavily armored cavalrymen galloped in gallop with iron hooves and thunder. The heavy iron hooves crushed all the grass on the ground into crumbs, turning into clouds of smoke and dust that rose high behind him.
Behind the cavalry, the spears were shining, and the swords were thick, like a forest of steel that could move.
Tens of thousands of Imperial soldiers, guided by the Flying Eagle Battle Banner, marched in orderly steps, pouring out from the other end of the horizon.
Like the tide of the river and the sea, they are firmly advancing towards the Star Lake.
There were so many enemies that it was like an endless ocean, and as far as the eye could see, it was a red color.
The grassy prairie is gone. Only countless figures were left behind and the battle flags fluttered.
Even the clear sky, which had been as blue as a wash, was reflected against it, revealing a strange crimson.
The orcs had never seen such a scene, and they all held their breath and did not say a word. All that was left was the sound of their heavy breathing.
Even so, countless legions continued to pour out from the horizon, from the sky. Striking at the fragile heart of the orc.
When the sun reaches noon. The entire Emperor ** Regiment has just finished arranging.
The whole savannah was in turmoil.
Countless large steel arrays of swords towered in front of them, and they formed an iron wall in front of the orcs.
A large piece of black pressing, the front does not arrive, the rear does not see the tail, and the edge cannot be seen with the naked eye.
This dense battle array carries infinite coercion, like a heavy mountain, towering and towering, and the people are breathless.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a tsunami-like shout in the distance.
"Ten thousand"
"True"
"Imperial Million"
The shout grew higher and higher from far to near, earth-shattering, reaching into the sky. The tremors were deaf in both ears. It was heart-wrenching, almost unsteady.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a large flag several feet high in the distance moving quickly towards this side.
The poison is waving in the wind, and the hunt is flying. In the flickering, you can vaguely see a huge flying eagle embroidered in the middle of the flag.
The flying eagle embroidered vividly, I saw it spread its wings high, its face was hideous and fierce, and it wanted to fly out of the flag.
At this time, as if to satisfy the curiosity of the orcs, the Empire's military array cracked a path like a tide.
The big poisonous flag unfurled.
Everyone immediately looked into the distance with their eyes.
I saw that under that banner, there was an imperial general wearing gold armor and a red cloak. Gallop out.
Seeing that big flag, the imperial soldiers all showed fanatical gazes in their eyes, and then shouted and shouted.
It was none other than the Governor of Nai'an Province, the Empire's Flying Eagle God of War, and the Count of Lorraine.
It was under his command that the warriors of the empire crossed the mountains and seas, crossed the Han Sea, and stepped on the grasslands.
Guarded by an elite group of knights in heavy armor and eagle helmets, he came to a halt on a high ground only three or five miles from the orc camp.
Lorraine immediately lifted the heavy visor from his helmet on the hill, and then reached out to his side.
Vera, who was next to her, hurriedly took out a delicate monocular, and then heartily handed it into his hand.
This telescope is extremely valuable.
And that's just the first test pieces that were made. Tong guò fast horse, just delivered to Lorraine's hands.
Although Lorraine also knew how to make glass, he was so busy with everything that he couldn't keep busy.
Moreover, in terms of specific production, unless it is an extremely experienced old craftsman, it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes.
Sometimes, when dealing with problems, in the eyes of the old craftsman, maybe just a trick is enough to make those laymen grope for half their lives.
So even though Lorraine wrote down the method, he was not an experienced craftsman. I just know a general method, and I don't know much about it.
In the beginning, although he was ambitious to make this kind of thing that was more profitable than selling white powder, he kept burning money into it, and what he made was all unrecognizable. It wasn't until later that Lord Luo burned the money and screamed in pain.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, directly revealing the murderous true face of the evil capitalist, and sent spies from his subordinate venture capital company to Wellings, which was famous for its glass manufacturing industry, and tied up a few experienced old craftsmen.
Na Willings is dominated by glass manufacturing, and they are not vegetarians.
In that independent city, everyone from the mayor to the beggars eats in this industry, and everyone pays attention to the secrecy of this manufacturing process.
Due to the violent nature of this industry, there have been many people who have beaten their ideas before, and even directly sent troops to rob them. But in the end, it was all gone.
The kidnapping process that Lorraine personally planned was also thrilling.
The spies of the venture capital firm and the agents of the Glass Manufacturing Committee of Willings also fought hard a few times.
The two sides can be said to have mutual gains and losses.
There were several paladins among the spies, all of whom were crippled.
And some of the best agents of the Venture Capital Firm's Intelligence Division 6 also almost fell into the hands of those secret agents. You must know that the agents of the six places were personally selected by Lorraine.
The first two digits of their numbers are zeros, meaning that these riffraff are top-tier agents with murder licenses.
Later, the agents were picked up by a Navy SEAL, a special forces unit made up of elite elements of the Royal Praetorian Guard. Lorraine used the latest secret again
With the help of the fastest galleon in the so-called Age of Sailings, he escaped from Willins's Sea 6 pursuers and fled victoriously.
Later, Lord Lorraine had a long talk with the craftsmen who had been tied up and did their ideological work, and then he subdued the craftsmen.
With the help of experienced craftsmen, the glass of the Flying Eagle Company began to be produced smoothly and in large quantities.
Although there is glass, it is difficult to make a telescope. It's not just a matter of just taking two pieces of glass and putting them together.
This is an optical instrument that requires the highest precision and the highest precision. Under the existing process of making pure glass, it is also difficult to make a high-magnification telescope.
Lorraine spent a lot of money on this.
Lord Luo, who also lost money, now has money, and he doesn't care about the money of one million or two million like a tyrant.
If it was like before, with the money-eyed personality of Lord Luo, he would rather gouge out his own eyeballs than do such a thing. However, it was because he threw a lot of gold coins that the telescope was finally made.
However, it should be pointed out that because the problem of high transmittance prism cannot be solved. There is no way to refract the beam effectively, so there is still no way to make such high-magnification binoculars with modern features.
The current finished product is only a slightly rudimentary monocular, which can only be adjusted by elongating and shortening the distance between the objective lens and the eyepiece. But even then, it's not easy.
When Lorraine raised the telescope and looked closely at the orc camp, the telescope was indeed very useful. The situation in the orc camp can be clearly seen.
If you adjust it carefully, you can even see the expression on the face of the orc on the sentry post of the tall building opposite.
Lorraine then felt that although it was so much money spent, it was indeed worth it
At the same time, he is also considering whether he is using power for personal gain now that he has the manufacturing technology of telescopes.
Use the power in your hands to order large quantities from the Flying Eagle Shrug Division in the form of military procurement, so as to make up for your own losses.
He thought wildly as he looked at the orc camp.
At first glance, I can't help but be disappointed.
The half-orc camp had not been effectively planned, and everyone was in the east and west, although many tribes were all gathered together, and it looked like a large area of black oppression, covering an extremely vast area. But at the same time, it is also extremely chaotic.
And in order to get water conveniently, they are extremely brainless, and they all live with their backs to Xingxing Lake.
If Lorraine hadn't seen these half-orcs, he would have been too stupid, and even wondered if these long-haired riffraff had copied the first pair of flower red sticks of the Great Han, and were quasi-waiting for Han Xin's strategy to play a backwater battle with himself.
Although they can do this without worrying about water cut-offs, they are also completely trapped by themselves because of this. There is no room for strategic detours, and even tactical detours are impossible.
Lorraine was a little skeptical that there was some conspiracy waiting for him.
But what comforted him was. When the orcs saw their arrival, they were visibly panicked. Apparently they don't even know when they're coming.
It can be seen that the other party will not be prepared.
But at the same time, a question also arose in his heart, how could the commander of the other party be such a rice bucket?
Just as he was thinking, he heard a crisp voice next to him sound incessantly.
The man shouted, "Big brother, I'm sorry, let one go, let one go." Thank you, thank you. Big brother, I'm sorry, let go"
Lorraine was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look.
I saw a long white and chubby boy wearing a well-tailored special captain's uniform, riding a white elephant, and squeezed up from behind.
As he walked forward, he kept nodding to the guards on either side, smiling at each other.
The black and soft head was smeared with a lot of hair oil, all of which was obediently clinging to the scalp, and through the gaps, the scalp could be clearly seen. In addition, I am illuminated by the sun. Oily and slippery, you can almost shine a human figure.
In addition, on that white and red, blown-out, pink and tender face, there is a pair of expensive crystal sunglasses.
The lenses were round and could barely hide the big black and bright eyes.
The elephant under him was also covered in red and colored, with a long nose and a high toe, looking invincible.
Around the boy's waist, and on the elephant's neck, there were more than a dozen muskets, although all of them were closed with firing pins, but at a glance, it could be seen that the guns were all loaded with ammunition.
When needed, as long as the bolt is gently pulled, it can be fired at any time. Kill in an instant.
At this point, the boy came closer.
He proudly pushed the crystal sunglasses on his nose, and when he saw Lorraine's gaze, he didn't care at all, but instead squeezed his own baby teeth as white as fine rice, and pressed the long knife on his waist with his hand, and laughed sheepishly.
It's like Liu Bang's season, and it's like Cao Jia's virtue.
It is the star of hope for the future of the Empire.
"With the wisdom of a thousand miles of insight, you can see through thousands of miles at a glance and see into the details of the world. He has a wide range of insights, mystical and mysterious judgment, and incomparable heroic courage, extraordinary natural military talents, versatile strength, infinite grace like benevolence, and a great mind like a galaxy in the universe.
With unparalleled leadership, he will lead the people from one victory to another. Victory, on the road of victory, constantly
Although there are so many definite words in front of the grandfather's name now, he can kill the world's number one tenor Pavaro in one go. But now, no one in this place still takes this master as a dish.
And he was used to being cleaned up by Catherine, and under this strict royal education, he did not have the arrogance that the lowest power-seekers, such as tyrants, dirt buns, and country nobles, deliberately pretended to be in order to show off their power.
Just like Archduke Julius after joining the army, although he also received a lot of care, he also honestly started from the bottom level one by one.
When he saw that the military rank was bigger than him, he also had to scold in his heart: "You son of a bitch!" while raising his hand to salute.
And when he saw someone with a lower rank than him, while raising his hand to salute the dagger, he also wanted to whisper back, "You are the same."
Lorraine looked at him and couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart. People just see that after the big brothers who are the leaders and the big brothers who sit in the hall and carry the handle ascend the throne, they call Bainuo, majestic, and the scenery is limited. But who knows the hard work behind this.
A big kid like Leo usually cries and shouts for lollipops, but he is already a soldier and has to follow the army on a long journey. Use this to gain your own experience. so that you can change jobs in the future.
It's to play online games, not to mention that it starts from a fart kid and practices until it reaches the highest achievement, even if it completes level 80, it takes about 20 days
Therefore, he only frowned and said, "Why did you sneak here?"
Leo nodded honestly, then bared his white teeth and smiled, "Yes." Nicole also said, follow you, no matter how fast your legs are, there will definitely be no danger. ”
Lorraine was momentarily stunned. He scolded in his heart: "Uncle, this creature is really like a coyote, if you are not careful, he will stab you with a leak." And he can't beat, scold, and it's a headache, and in the end, he has to work hard to wipe his ass. It's not necessarily a good thing.
It's a war
Catherine was really relieved, so she let him follow.
He pursed his mouth, and finally swallowed what he wanted to say, and only whispered, "You'd better follow me." Don't run around, you know?"
Leo was overjoyed, raised his hand and saluted, and said loudly, "Yes, sir." ”
The imperial generals who watched this comedy next to them all laughed amusefully when they saw this.
Lorraine also smiled, then handed the binoculars in his hand to General Larry next to him, pointed to the camp tent of the orcs in the distance, and said, "What do you think?"
General Larry was stunned for a moment, and then, following Lorraine's example, he lifted the telescope and looked at it, and was immediately startled when he saw the orcs in the distance suddenly closing the distance. His hand went limp, and he almost didn't throw the telescope to the ground.
But then after realizing it, the veteran general, who had fought all his life, trembled with excitement at the moment.
He pinched the telescope and didn't let go, but his eyes were round, and through the telescope, he kept looking at the orc territory in the distance.
And he kept chanting in his mouth, and shouted vigorously: "Okay, good." This is really wonderful! I have fought all my life, and this is what can be regarded as seeing a good thing, and with this, it is simply easy to observe the enemy's opportunities and detect the enemy's situation.
My lord, my lord, I didn't say you, you have this thing, why didn't you take it out earlier?
With this Youxi, we can spend a lot less effort when we fight in the future
There he muttered vigorously. All the generals present were strange in their hearts, and they thought that the general had committed some kind of madness.
Lorraine looked at the old fellow, and saw that he was holding the telescope, looking around, and wished that he could even look at the orc toilet thirty or fifty times, if he didn't know in his heart that this old guy had several grandchildren, he would have wondered if this old guy had some psychological problems, and ran here to be a voyeur, peeking at the half-orc old men to go to the toilet.
Lorraine coughed lightly and said, "General Larry, you let others watch it for a while." Let's get down to business. ”
General Larry grinned and said, "Look at it for a while, and they won't be able to pull it out of their eyes." Sir, I've been fighting with you for more than a year. Let's do it. I don't want anything, just this thing, it's mine, how about it?"
Lorraine looked at General Larry holding the telescope tightly with both hands, without the slightest intention of letting go, and smiled bitterly at the moment, and said, "General, this is just an experiment, but it's not worth much." If you want it, go back and I'll give it to you. ”
General Larry was stunned for a moment and said, "It's really not worth much?"
Lorraine suddenly realized his gaffe and hurriedly changed his words: "Although it is also worth some money, at most it is half a month's salary, and I am still thinking about purchasing a batch in the name of the military in the future, and when the time comes, it will be distributed to school-level officials." ”
General Larry let out a long breath of relief. Then, under the pressure of Lorraine's gaze, he reluctantly let go of his hand and handed the telescope into the hands of the next general.
At the same time, he is relying on his old qualifications. Whispered a warning to the man: "Will it be used? If it can't be used, give it back to me, you know?" The generals took the telescope, and they all inhaled, surprised, their eyebrows and mustaches flew everywhere, and then they clung to it in their hands like a protective son, and finally had to ask others to half-rob and half-persuade, so they reluctantly let go.
Lorraine didn't bother with them. It was only after everyone had seen it that they asked, "Gentlemen, what do you think of the other party's situation? Yes
