054 Catala's appetite
Castle of the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Frank.
Grand Duke Frank waved his fist angrily: "What is Catala doing?" This is a blatant invasion! β
The intelligence director said faintly, "Now we know what happened in Yi Songzuo. Yi Songzo became a friendly country of Catala overnight, and it should be like this. β
Grand Duke: "It's an invasion!" It's aggression! We're going to ......"
Governor: "To file a complaint with Monrovia?" Since the countries of the River Basin were invaded by Monrovia once, we can no longer form a confederation with real effect, and we are a plate of scattered sand, and the big powers next to us can do whatever they want. β
Archduke Frank paced back and forth: "What the hell, we still want to do something to the salvation team, and we end up being fish on the chopping block!" β
In the lingua franca, this common saying is generally called "meat on the chopping board", but the countries of the river basin naturally have their own characteristics.
Archduchess: "At this point, we can only hope that the Salvation Team will defeat Catal." β
The Grand Duke glared at his wife: "How can a squad deal with a country?" Catala, like Sissel, has recently carried out reforms, and their national strength has soared, and they have about 8,000 people in one legion, and there are twelve such legions!
"And the first legion is even more equipped with an arcane spellcaster in every hundred-man team, no matter how strong the salvation team is, it can't deal with such an army!"
Archduchess: "And what now?" Giving up our country? Like Yi Songzo? β
The Grand Duke did not answer, he stood in front of the window and looked at the city that had begun to burn outside.
Just then, outside the castle, Catala's horn was heard.
Director of Intelligence: "It seems that the Catalans have a great appetite, and they haven't eaten the docks yet, so they're going to do something to us." β
The Grand Duke turned to the military governor: "Hold firmly!" Wait for the Salvation Team to defeat the enemy! β
He has already called Catala an enemy.
**
On the dock side, Catala's offensive was temporarily repelled because of the dragon's excellent performance.
The Catala Legion formed a defensive formation at the edge of the dock, and the dragon originally wanted to break through by the way, but when the time for the dragon to turn into a dragon came, he could only regretfully dismiss this idea.
The Salvation Team regrouped.
The king's attention was drawn to the dwarf: "Why do you have so much blood on you?" β
Flint: "Look at everyone's weapons, isn't it normal for them to have blood on them?" β
Xiaobai: "Poof." β
Flint: "Laugh, laugh, my emblem hasn't stopped heating up since the beginning, Kailin likes to see me being used as a weapon, I've resigned myself to my fate, I just hope that Kailin will remember to give me a ring after reading it, and I've already begun to imagine my life as a priest of the five rings." β
Nini: "Is it my delusion, why did I hear the meaning of self-defeating?" β
Wang: "Yes?" β
And all the people looked together at the king.
Wang: "What do you want me to do?" I really didn't hear it. Nini quickly explained to the teacher why she heard the feeling of self-abandonment, and what numerical changes made you make this judgment. β
Flint: "Don't do this, I'm miserable enough, don't bury me anymore!" β
Wang: "I'll ask Nini to explain how it turned out to be a ...... for you"
Xiaobai patted Wang's leg (her human form can only shoot her legs): "Give up, you won't be able to understand the mystery of this for the rest of your life." β
At this moment, the old lady of Hashir came: "Thank you, at least you have eliminated a centurion of Catala, which has greatly lightened our burden. But it looks like Catala is ready to come for real. β
Wang: "I captured their centurion, and according to the centurion, a Catalan legion has arrived here. β
Hashir was shocked: "A legion? Isn't that at least eight thousand to ten thousand soldiers armed to the teeth? What are they going to do, to pacify the entire Duchy of Frank? β
Wang: "That's how it should be. β
Hashel: "The Pelicans alone can't deal with them, we're just a bunch of dockers, we're strong enough, we don't have military training, we can't fight the mercenaries in the wilderness, we have no chance of winning against the regular army." β
As soon as the words fell, Catala's horn came from afarβno, this time it was close!
Immediately after, the drums of war rang out. Catala's war drums are not as wide as orc war drums, and they sound very light, fine, and dense.
Immediately after that, the Catalan soldiers who formed the shield formation stepped on the fine and dense drum beat and pressed towards the Pelican Gang's control area.
Wang: "Nini, go to the airship and see how many Catalan soldiers are attacking us." β
Nini nodded, and was about to run towards the airship's mooring, when she suddenly stopped and fired her bow and fired two arrows in succession.
The first arrow hit something in the air, and a bolt of bolt landed at Elizabeth's feet.
The second arrow flew into the distance.
Nini: "There are assassins!" β
Marika immediately blocked Elizabeth: "Towards His Highness?" β
Before the words fell, a rain of arrows rose into the air from Catala.
Judging from the intensity of the rain of arrows, at least a hundred archers were shooting at the same time, and the target was undoubtedly the salvation squad!
Nini casts spells immediately - while her arcane skills are now only magical, as a ranger, she has the ability to cast magical spells.
"Wind Wall Technique!" With Nini's chanting, a barrier appeared, just in time to block the falling arrows.
Flint took out the protective arrow scroll from his dimensional pouch and tore it open, a soft light enveloping the entire team.
Marika: "The enemy is clearly targeting us!" I recommend retreating into the house! β
Wang: "No, if the Pelicans can't stop us, we'll be surrounded by the house." Defending alone can't change the situation, we have to attack. The Catalans can't come out of nowhere, and they're not mushrooms!
"It's either an airship, but there's no other airship landing but us. Either...... It's the portal.
"In the case of the portal, the portal that can pass through an entire army is not small, and it will be accompanied by a strong light, and now we don't see a strong light at all, which means that the portal is in the house.
"Mrs. Hashir, what building has an interior that is eight meters high and eight meters wide?"
Hashir: "It sounds like the Catalan embassy fits the bill, it's a Catalan building, it's built in a shantytown, it's very obvious, you can see the Catalan embassy if you stand on the roof of any shack.
"By the way, the headquarters of the Order is also nearby, so if you want to make trouble with the Order, you should stop by."
Wang: "Mrs. Hashir, can you send a guide who knows the way and take us there?" β
Hashel: "Absolutely. But don't you have airships? Why not just parachute? β
The king looked up at the dwarf airship that had been left on the ground through the mooring.
Wang: "You're right, we should be parachuted in. β
**
Kedia Banuhulian looked at the salvation team in the crystal ball and snorted, "They still want to come over and close the portal?" β
Master: "This kind of self-defeating behavior is commendable. β
The former regional consul general's armed field detachment leader Oga clenched his hands into fists: "I will let them come and go." β
Kedia looked at the original regional consul general Odolph: "Your squad leader has a high fighting spirit, why don't you also express it?" β
Odolph silently took out his staff: "Yes, Your Highness." β
Kedia: "Wait, considering the fighting power of the Salvation Squad and their brilliant results, you are nothing more than the Seven Rings. They have killed many of the Order's Seven Rings since they started their journey, and they have a lot of experience. I'll take care of it with the master. You and Captain Oga are guarding the hall right here. β
Saying that, Kedia turned to the master: "How long will it take for the legion to reach the Floating City?" β
Master: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this is not Catala that can ride a horse, there are basically no land roads available here, and you have to take a boat to go anywhere." We have to take the dock and grab the boat before we can go straight to Huanglong. β
Kedia: "What about the Flying Troops?" β
Master: "Without the cooperation of the ground forces......"
Kedia: "Now the entire Salvation Team is in Repulse City, and the Floating City is only ordinary human warriors at most, do you think that our Flying Sphinx Knight of Catala can't even deal with these?" β
Master: "You're right, we're going to send out the Flying Sphinx troops." β
