Chapter Twenty-Six: The Battle of Fire and Ice (6) Begins
The population of the Duchy of Arendelle is only more than 200,000, and the number of troops is naturally not much, only less than 20,000, of which the main city of Arendelle accounts for more than a quarter or 5,000 people, Prince Hans took away 4,500 people, leaving only 500 people to maintain the basic order of Arendelle City.
The army of 4,500 people stepped on waist-deep snow and marched towards the direction where Elsa left, Prince Hans rode on a horse proudly looked at the advancing army and sneered secretly at Ouyang Yu sitting on the sleigh behind him.
After a difficult trek, the army came to the bottom of a cliff and looked up to see a crystal clear ice palace standing on top of the cliff.
"Really beautiful building. "Ouyang Yu likes this ice palace very much.
"Hurry up, everyone, that ice palace is the lair of the monster archduchess!" At the order of Prince Hans, the soldiers quickened their pace towards the cliff.
Not long after walking, a young man drove a reindeer-pulled sleigh down the cliff, and a young woman seemed to lie behind the sled.
In this nervous anger, the sleigh was naturally stopped by the army, and several soldiers went up to check, and one of the soldiers couldn't help but exclaim after seeing the appearance of the woman lying down: "Princess Anna! It's Princess Anna!"
Lying behind the sleigh was Anna, who was looking for her sister Elsa, whose long pale blonde hair had turned snow-white, and her body was not only weak but also cold, and if she hadn't been breathing, it would have made people think she had died.
When Prince Hans heard that it was Anna, he hurried over, checked Anna's condition for a while, and then asked the young man, "What is your name?"
The young man replied with some restraint, "My name is Christopher." ”
"What did Princess Anna do like this?"
"Her Royal Highness Anna is because of Her Royal Highness Elsa will become what she is now, I don't know what happened exactly, last night Her Royal Highness Anna found me and asked me to take her to her sister, I took her to find the Ice Palace and didn't go in immediately, and when I went in, I saw Her Royal Highness Elsa knocking Princess Anna to the ground with her witchcraft, and then Princess Anna's hair turned white all of a sudden and she was unconscious, I was trying to take her to my friend, maybe my friend can help Princess Anna. ”
"Very well, thank you for your interest in Anna, come on, give this man a little silver to send him away!"
"Your Royal Highness, I can't leave yet! My friend should be able to help Princess Anna!" no matter how much the lonely Christopher shouted, to no avail, he was forcibly driven away by several soldiers.
"Your Highness, would it be good to get rid of that man like this, maybe his friend could really save Princess Anna. An officer came over and asked.
Prince Hans waved his hand a little impatiently and said: "No problem, as long as we destroy the monster queen, not only can this inexplicable cold winter be lifted, but the curse on Anna can also be touched, you don't have to worry, now all you have to do is to let the army set off immediately." ”
"Yes!" Hearing Prince Hans's explanation, the officer could only put aside his worries and organize the soldiers to continue the march, and Anna was arranged for Ouyang Yu to be taken care of by her, after all, the army was full of men, and only she and her maids were convenient for women to take care of.
In the sleigh, Ouyang Yu asked Anna to lie down, probed her body with mental power, and found that there was a cloud of ice magic in Anna's heart, the strength of this magic power was relatively high, if it was an ordinary person, it would have been killed a long time ago, but I don't know what Anna can still live for, which makes Ouyang Yu feel incredible.
"Master, do you need me to unleash healing spells for Princess Anna?" asked Doris.
Ouyang Yu shook his head, under the influence of that ice magic, Anna's body was undergoing some kind of wonderful changes, this change was making her body improve little by little, it is estimated that Anna would return to normal in a few hours, if it weren't for this, Ouyang Yu would have dispelled that magic power with an exorcism method a long time ago.
Soon the army came to the vicinity of the ice palace at the top of the cliff, the top of the cliff was flat enough for the army of 4,500 men to spread, and Prince Hans rode out and shouted to the ice palace: "Your Highness Elsa! Because of your curse, all the wheat that is about to be harvested in the farmland is gone, because of your curse, more than 200,000 people are suffering from the bitter cold, because of your curse, your sister Anna is in danger, if you still have the slightest conscience, stop your evil curse immediately!
The door of the ice palace was opened, Elsa walked out of it, she changed out of the clothes she wore when she was crowned, put on a set of light blue shiny one-piece dresses, and draped a translucent light gauze of the same color behind her, a high opening on the right side of the skirt exposed the snow-white and plump right leg to the air, and her hair was coiled down and combed into a single ponytail, and the whole person looked like a fiery, unrestrained and free feeling.
Elsa looked at the army that had sworn allegiance to her for a moment before she spoke: "I already know the matter, I want to say that this is not my intention, I don't know how to end this winter, as for Anna, I think she will be fine." ”
"Sophistry!" Prince Hans said righteously, "This is all your quibble! How could you, as the liberator of the curse, not be lifted, not on purpose? Hmph! Who would believe that Anna is your own sister, and you don't care about her life or death like this, it is simply inhumane! It seems that it is in vain to continue with you, archers!
Five hundred archers drew their bows and raised their arrows on the orders of Prince Hans.
"Put!" Without giving Elsa time to explain again, Prince Hans gave the order to shoot without hesitation.
"Whoosh......" Five hundred long arrows sat down with inertia and gravity and shot at Elsa.
Elsa raised her right foot and tapped the ground, and a thick wall of ice rose from the ground in front of her, and the arrows could only leave white marks on the hard steel ice wall and fall to the ground.
It's not her character to fight back, with a wave of her little hand, the ground in front of the ice palace is covered with snow, and hundreds of snowmen more than three meters tall rise from the ground and rush forward to encircle and suppress her army under Elsa's orders.
"The first team releases their shields, the second and third captains put their guns flat, and the archers continue to fire!" Under the orders of Prince Hans, the city guards quickly moved into action, and the archers changed their targets from Elsa to the rushing snowman, and one by one long arrows were shot into the snowman's body, but to no avail.
After two rounds of arrows, the snowmen approached the city guard unscathed, howling and raising their casserole-sized fists at the soldiers.
"Ah...... Ahhh......h
Screams erupted, and although the snowman's body was made of snow, the strength was not small, and the soldiers holding shields were knocked away by the huge force and fell to the ground or knocked down their comrades.
