54. Call for help

(Thanks to "Arad Promise" and "Yuchen Daojun" for the tip, thank you here!)

The alarm bell rang in the castle, and the soldiers in the castle hurriedly took up their weapons and entered their respective positions, and the commander Richard went up to the castle and gasped, before him, there were at least four hundred cavalry, and in addition, there were many people busy three miles away, at least a thousand people were rushing towards him.

What's going on, in fact, only a hundred people divided into two teams and rushed towards the castle, but under the effect of Wang Qinian's magic mirror, the number of people has increased several times, these are all visual observations, not that there are so many people in reality.

There were only more than two hundred soldiers in the castle, all with pale faces, holding blades, looking nervously at the soldiers below, the horn sounded, the army stopped advancing, and stood in a phalanx, and a knight stepped forward: "Listen, we are Robin's army, you must lay down your weapons, otherwise, attack the castle, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!"

He was answered by an arrow, and the knight raised his left arm and the knight's shield blocked it, pulled out his horse, and returned to the ranks.

Wang Qinian said in a cold voice: "Shoot!" There was a rain of arrows from the team, and the rain of arrows was as many as one hundred and sixty, this was because Wang Qinian only had eighty archers, and ordered them to shoot two waves quickly, mixed together, but under the mirror magic, the momentum was terrifying, and above the arrow, the soybean-sized fiery red magic core drew out a fiery red brilliance under the effect of the magic array, like thousands of fiery snakes, straight to the castle.

"Activate the magic array!" Richard's face changed and he ordered loudly.

The castle aura peaked, the magic array began to run, but it did not reach stability at first, and as soon as those magic arrows touched the magic aura, they suddenly exploded, Wang Qinian was startled, he couldn't imagine that more than a hundred magic arrows were so powerful, the explosion was continuous, the magic aura suddenly stagnated, and two soldiers were carried by the explosion shock wave, and their bodies fell off the castle.

Richard's face was pale, there had been no war in the Angry Lion Castle for ten years, including Richard, all of them were soldiers who were transferred to the castle later, I didn't know that this was the magic array that began to run unstable, but thought that the magic array was broken by the enemy, but the magic array flashed and finally stabilized, and some soldiers on the castle were so frightened that they lay on the ground.

Wang Qinian keenly noticed this, sighed, he was not so lucky, no wonder the musket has not become the protagonist of the battlefield for a long time, the power of this magic flame arrow is much stronger than the current musket, it is the flame blast arrow, in front of the real knight, it is not worth mentioning at all.

Wang Qinian waved his hand again, this time it was not a bow and arrow, after all, there were not many fire arrows, and there were arrows with wind attributes, and the rate of fire was fast, but Wang Qinian didn't plan to use magic arrows, but used a throwing gun, he waved his hand, and immediately a hundred people pulled out a throwing gun from behind his back, and threw it out with a snort.

A hundred throwing guns flew out, under the effect of mirror magic, like more than four hundred throwing guns flew in, a large piece of black crows, Wang Qinian still used an enchanted throwing gun, as soon as the hundred throwing guns touched the aura of the magic array, they immediately exploded, and the earth-shattering sound continued, but it did not break through the aura of the magic array, Wang Qinian sighed, knowing that it was impossible to break through the magic array.

The sky was already slightly dark, Wang Qinian's hand moved, and several fireballs bombarded the magic array one after another like meteors, and the violent explosion started again, Wang Qinian knew that unless the magic core of the magic array was exhausted, or the magic array was broken by strong means, it was impossible to break the magic array with such an impact.

Wang Qinian stopped the attack and motioned for a knight to step forward, he had done enough, making the other party afraid, knowing that there are magicians in the army, magicians are scarce resources, and there are magicians in an army, at least the main force, this is enough, if Richard was still a little suspicious when he came just now, this time, he decided that most of Robin's people came here.

The knight shouted: "Give you a night to think, to descend or not to fall!" After speaking, the horse galloped back, the horn sounded, and the cavalry galloped away like smoke, they didn't know what to say, Wang Qinian chose to attack at dusk for Lu, based on a variety of considerations, one is that Wang Qinian's mirror magic is limited in time, and it cannot be opened forever, there is only a time limit of more than an hour, and the dusk is chosen, not far from the dark time, just under the cover of the night;

Watching the people and horses retreat below, Richard breathed a sigh of relief, this is terrible, obviously the Count of Normandy said that the army is pressing, Robin They can't divide the troops, but the army is coming, the castle can't be lost, otherwise the Normandy back road will be cut off, and the military supplies will not be supplied, so you have to send the information out of the city quickly, in the castle, there are no magicians, there are two in the Normandy army, but one is the fourth level, the other is the third level, all with the army, can only use people to pass the letter out of the army.

It was getting late, so he took advantage of the darkness to secretly pass the news out of Lu, and chose four people, two to the east and two to the west, and at the same time to convey the news from here to the Count of Normandy and to the rear.

The door opened quietly, and the four horses disappeared into the night.

"Report, as expected, Richard sent four people to ask for help, the two to the east have been settled, and the two to the west we let them go. "A person to report, Wang Qinian and several generals are discussing military affairs in the tent, after today's events, they have changed their opinion of Wang Qinian, but the view has changed, not to the point of serving Wang Qinian, but Andrea admires Wang Qinian very much.

"What about tomorrow?" asked Goth.

"Tomorrow I can send fifty cavalry to harass me, and besides, bring out five hundred men from the townspeople, and don't let them be idle, there are trees around, cut down wood for me, and I will build a trebuchet, simpler, as long as I can throw stones over, Andrea, do you know the structure of the trebuchet?" Wang Qinian said.

"Zhilu, do you want to use trebuchets to capture the castle?" Andrea asked curiously.

"This kind of rough trebuchet can't capture the castle at all, the castle is protected by a magic array, it is impossible to capture it without strong magic means or a large number of people die, I just make an appearance, five hundred townspeople have to let them have something to do, they can't do nothing, they will consume their energy, if necessary, let the men manipulate the trebuchet and attack the castle. In addition, from tomorrow onwards, the scouts will send out two hundred miles to keep a close eye on the movements in the west. Wang Qinian said lightly.

"Isn't it too much to go down two hundred miles as a scout?" said Goth.

"No way, I want to know the movements of the Count of Normandy at any time, we have a loophole, but the enemy is surrounded, it is difficult for us to escape, we have to take precautions in advance, when the scouts go out, come to my side first, I give them a scroll, and if I find the enemy, I will tear the scroll, there is no way, I will bring you back safely." Robin said

The Count of Normandy and Bonaparte met resistance in the jungle, the resistance became more and more fierce, the march was very slow, and the musketeers suffered the greatest losses, because the muskets were not like the knights, they were fully armoured, and although their muskets were sharp, in the jungle, the arquebuses often rang out as soon as the guns rang out, and the smoke of gunpowder rose, and an arrow flew from nowhere, and they were reimbursed.

Of course, sometimes the corpses of the enemy are also left, the arquebus team is seriously reduced, the Count of Normandy is very annoyed, Robin's gang is not facing them head-on at all, so angry that the Count of Normandy only scolds his mother, the musket team is a large army when fighting, when the men and horses are neatly arranged, at this time, except for the knights who have cultivated the sword qi, no one else can be its front, and the knights have always been a small number, that is, low-level knights, if they are shot, it is inevitable that they will be difficult, but in the jungle, they do not see the shadow of the enemy at all, the enemy is like a ghost, and the musket team is in the wrong place。

The Count of Normandy sent someone to contact Bonaparte on his right, although the Bonaparte musket team was damaged, but the casualties were much smaller, it turned out that Bonaparte had already discovered the problem, three musketeers formed a team, and with a knight, the musket team was greatly powerful.

After knowing this situation, Normandy sighed: "I am not as good as Bonaparte, and ordered the ranks to be mixed, and sure enough, the casualties were greatly reduced, and I not only looked at Bonaparte differently in my heart, but also had a faint jealousy."

The team of 3,000 people has been reduced by hundreds in the past few days, in addition to flying cold arrows from time to time, there are countless traps, but the overall situation is still expected, they are looking for Robin to fight a decisive battle, with their artillery muskets, knights and magicians, and the number is more than twice the number of Robin, as long as the decisive battle, it is almost won.

The ranks dispersed, and a group of men moved forward cautiously and steadfastly, followed by a battalion of knights, among whom were artillerymen, and supplies for military supplies.

"Someone from Angry Lion Castle. The scout came to report, the Count of Normandy was shocked, he had a bad premonition, an old man behind him, standing behind him with his eyes closed, occasionally opening his eyes, full of energy, he watched Normandy grow up, his identity is very special, he is a loyal bodyguard and butler Joshuahan.

"Bring it up, the whole army stops moving forward and stands by in place. "The Count of Normandy ordered.

The two people were brought up, their clothes were torn, their eyes were red, and when they saw the Count of Normandy, they cried: "Lord Earl, save the Angry Lion Castle, Robin led a team to attack the Angry Lion Castle!"

"What!" The Count of Normandy almost jumped up, he only had two hundred people in the Angry Lion Castle, no wonder Robin was missing, it turned out to sneak attack his Angry Lion Castle, it's over! The back road was cut off, if Robin occupied the Angry Lion Castle, his more than 2,000 people would have to be explained here, "Is the Angry Lion Castle lost?"

He still has some confidence in the Angry Lion Castle, although after the initial blow, is the Angry Lion Castle so easy to take?

"No, when I left, Angry Lion Castle was still in the hands of Richard Shaowei. They used a massive enchanted weapon, and the explosion was terrifying. ”

Saying this, Normandy believed that Robin personally led the team, and the two of them remembered, took off the corners of their shirts, and handed a letter to the Count of Normandy.

When the Count of Normandy read the letter, Richard described in detail the arrogance of the enemy, and described the camp three miles away, especially the battle that evening, in which four hundred knights flocked out, including a magician, and knightly troops in the rear.

This information convinced the Count of Normandy that Robin had taken most of his strength to the Lion Castle.
