Chapter 838: The Silent Sound Transmission Circle
Another quarter of an hour.
Compared to the ease and ease of Don and Josia, the surviving cavalry were in a cold nightmare......
The long winding alleys are deep and quiet. Previously, more than 1,000 cavalrymen felt that this alley was too complicated and too wide, and no matter where they went, it was empty and extremely unfamiliar. But now, just a few steps away, you can see a pool of cold corpses, a place of smelly blood! gritted his teeth and walked through, changed lanes and continued to walk, and the eyes were still very familiar with the pool of bloody corpses......
With these eye-catching references, in the eyes of the surviving cavalry, the whole alley suddenly became simple and narrow, and no matter where they walked, there was a sense of déjà vu, as if they had just walked through.
First anger, then shock, then fear, and finally numbness......
I don't know if it's because of the psychological gap between the front and back, or because of the damn roadway environment. The corpses of the dead, once taken for granted, are now extremely sensitive to the surviving cavalry. Every time I walk up a new alleyway, the first thing I observe is not whether there are two demon figures around, but subconsciously sweep to the ground, in the depths of the alley, are there more than ten corpses of team companions who have been wiped out lying quietly?
If there is, I am not surprised and angry, but I am more sure that I have such an expression, I know that I will have such an expression, and then I cross the ...... with a blank face. If not, the body will unconsciously tense up, a little nervous, wondering if I will become a corpse that has fallen here......
They didn't crash, they just went crazy!
In just half an hour, in the deep alley, the dizzy cavalry squad was scattered. Walking silently and aimlessly. Reverberating around was heavy strides and rapid and slow wheezing. They don't know where the target is. There is no interest in actively looking for goals.
They were the elite heavy cavalry of the Tiger Roaring Legion, but now, they felt more like poultry in a slaughterhouse, to be picked and slaughtered at will.
And because they are the elite heavy cavalry of the Tiger Roar Legion and have their own glory, although their morale is so low that they become the walking dead, they are still subconsciously unwilling to choose to be deserters. Escape from this bloody Shura field. Instead, they walked in a trance, as if searching, as if waiting for some predetermined end—battle, death—and then lay down on the ground for their companions to watch as they had done before, and crossed the ...... with expressionless faces.
No one can defeat the army, no matter how high the strength is, this is common sense! But in this complicated long alley, Don changed this common sense by himself. Although it is because of the convenience of the terrain, as well as some other calculations. But the fact that it cannot be denied is that here and now. He is the god of death who dominates the power of life and death, take it and take it!
The offensive and defensive battles were reversed in an instant. The situation is indeed out of someone's control......
......
The fourth floor of the library cabinet.
Rustle rustle...... With the gradual passage of time, this place, as the command center of this combat operation, has become more and more silent. In the end, the clearest thing was the slow quicksand of the hourglass on the table.
At one point, the rustling sound suddenly disappeared. It represents an hourglass of a quarter of an hour, precisely fulfilling its chronometric mission. After a pause, one palm turned it upside down, and the rustling sound resumed, and Bretta squinted slightly, not knowing what she was thinking, her eyes were stunned.
According to the plan, they had an hour of combat time for the operation. It took a quarter of an hour to rush to Pia City before, and then broke through the city and surrounded and suppressed Shili Alley, until now. It took another ten minutes and a quarter of an hour, that is, twenty minutes at most, for the reinforcements of the Grey Army to arrive here.
No one is a fool, the situation has evolved to such a situation, although Bretta and the others don't know what happened in the Ten Mile Alley, how the other two people carried more than a thousand cavalry to encircle and suppress. But there is no doubt that everyone knows that the plan has gone wrong and is likely to fail.
After seeing Bretta turn the hourglass upside down, an officer stepped forward stubbornly: "General, I will transfer troops to the Ten Mile Lane in Nancheng now, and promise to cut off the head of the rebel leader." We've got us here, you'......."
"You want me to retreat?" said Bretta, looking up, calmly and noncommittally.
Opening his mouth, the officer wanted to say something more, and a sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came, and then a soldier with a hurried expression appeared at the entrance of the fourth-floor staircase, saluted directly and said, "General, there is a large group of cavalry five miles west of the city, with a scale of nearly a thousand. ”
To the west of the city, that is the territory occupied by the Gray Army. The identity of the cavalry coming from that direction is naturally self-evident.
"General, retreat!" Even Fei Qi couldn't hold back at this time, to be honest, he still didn't believe that a vindictive warrior could resist the encirclement and suppression of more than a thousand heavy horsemen. He himself is a prefecture-level powerhouse, thinking that even if the other party can hold on until now, it should be the end of the strong crossbow, maybe wait a few more minutes, and there will be good news ahead. But the matter is urgent, more than 1,000 cavalry of the gray-clothed army will be killed immediately, and it is no longer safe here, so he can't help but worry and worry.
waved his hand, "Transfer the eight hundred cavalry of Xicheng District out of the city to meet the enemy, and be sure to stop the other party outside the city gate." First made countermeasures, and then Bretta met the anxious looks of Feige and the others, and said calmly, "Don't worry, the Gray Army has no cavalry. If you guess correctly, these more than a thousand patchwork war horses are already their limit. So the plan remains the same, and we still have twenty minutes to go. ”
I have to say that although this Bletta's style of acting is a bit strange, it is not ambiguous at all in marching and fighting. The more than 1,000 cavalry that arrived was indeed the limit of what the gray army could do, so Frey transferred all the horses in the scout battalion, and even sacrificed the military intelligence investigation during this time.
Feige and the others believed Brighta's guess, but at the same time, they also believed that their choice was correct, and anxiously persuaded: "General, your safety is the most important thing, it is enough for us to go over in Ten Mile Lane, you don't need to stay here and risk your life at all." ”
"Hehe, it sounds like I'm a burden. Bretta was calm, and chuckled when she heard this.
"General......
"Okay, I'll admit that I'm a little unwilling......" Suppressing the many persuasions, Bretta shook her head and smiled, "Our legion has been dormant in the south for a long time, and its combat effectiveness has dropped sharply. It is often laughed at by various legions, which is really shameful. Now that I finally have the opportunity to rush to the front line to prove myself, I don't want to wait to see the horrors of the barbarians, but here there are signs of capsizing in the gutter, which is really ridiculous...... Of course, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and we shouldn't worry about it. But now that there's still time to give it a try, why don't you give it a try?"
Speaking of this, Feige and the others also knew that it was impossible to persuade Bretta to leave immediately, so they had to ask, "What does the general mean?"
Instead of answering immediately, Bretta suddenly asked, "What's going on over there in the North City?"
"It's still a stalemate. ”
The north city, where there is a second battlefield in the city except for the ten miles of the south city, that is, the place where Victor's assembled soldiers escorted and fought with the cavalry. Victor and the others were lucky, and found a well-defended rich merchant manor there, relying on the terrain advantage of high walls and thick stones, as well as the small guard equipment in the manor, and the incoming cavalry fought very fiercely. Although the situation was a little more difficult, fortunately it was not broken.
Of course, the main reason is that because Bretta's side has determined the location of Don and Josia, he has little interest in exterminating Victor and others who are of little value. Otherwise, even if the number of soldiers on Victor's side doubled, it would have been taken early.
Nodding, Bretta said directly: "The order has passed, and within five minutes, we must forcibly attack the manor, and the rebels inside can capture as much as possible, and then tie me up and send it to the ten miles of alleys in the south of the city." As long as the leader of the rebel army does not come out, kill a group of people every minute until they come out on their own initiative or finish killing. ”
After a pause, Bretta's fingers tapped on the tabletop and said with a smile, "The leader of the rebels is a young woman, I heard that she is quite beautiful, hehe, she should be tempted." But with that ruthless Nilao bombardment, it is estimated that it will not come out in the end...... But it doesn't matter, while the time is over to kill those rebels, you go and mobilize all the cavalry in the city for the last charge, and I will bulldoze that ten-mile alley. ”
"Uh...... Yes!" The officers around him couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, and had to say that although Bretta's attitude was light and calm, the tone of his words was also flat, which seemed to be normal. But the trick of killing prisoners of war is too shady to be disgraceful...... The general of his own family is a little unwilling, and he clearly wants to kill him directly......
But then again, none of you are good people, and they will do whatever it takes to defeat the enemy, which is an excellent quality close to virtue in the battlefield. So after being stunned for a moment, the officers immediately responded to the order.
"Wait. Raising his hand to stop the crowd who were about to give the order, Britta shook her head and said in a momentary manner, "Time is pressing, everyone...... Take the sound transmission circle and ask the scouts scattered all over the city to inform the summons. ”
"The general is wise. The plan was set, and the clever officers immediately made flattering remarks to ease the atmosphere.
"Hehe, it's you kid who is the best at sycophancy. With a smile and a curse, a soldier brought the wooden cabinet containing the sound transmission circle and put it on the table, Bretta casually took out a piece of magician and pressed it into the groove, waiting for the magic elements to gather and bloom, leaning closer, "I'm Bretta." ”
After a pause, there was silence in the sound transmission circle, and there was no salute or greeting.
Breta frowned, and said again, "I'm Bretta, hear the reply." ”
A few breaths passed, and the magic light still flickered, and it was still silent. "Damn, what are these bunnies doing......" The clever officer just now was immediately angry when he saw this, and he approached to reprimand him. Suddenly
"Shut up!" Crying out in a cold voice, Bretta's eyes stared at the flickering sound transmission array, as if he saw some great horror through the void and silent space, and his previous relaxed expression was instantly swept away, replaced by iron and cold and faint mixed with a slight tremble.
Huo Ran got up and raised his head, and with a bang, he smashed the sound transmission circle in the wooden cabinet with a punch, "Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw!
