Chapter 523: The Strange Vanguard
When everyone heard Qingling's unique view of this alternative way, they were all covered with black lines and speechless for a while, only Wang Yong nodded thoughtfully, and conveyed this proposal to the logistics department, so that they could dye all the rejected horses dark red when they had time. Although this proposal sounded a little naΓ―ve, after that, when everyone saw the murderous aura and deterrence displayed by the spikes on the rejection horse after being dyed dark red, they all nodded their heads in praise without hesitation.
At this time, everyone looked at the proud lightness and the careless Wang Yong, and their eyes were full of pity for his innocence and sympathy for his inferior IQ.
Twenty minutes later, the cavalry troops of the Eternal Empire came to the bottom of the Shenlong Mountain Range, and stopped less than ten miles away from the Shenlong Pass.
Wang Yong and the others stood on the city tower, condescendingly looking at the overwhelming enemy army, only to see the enemy's forward stop and quickly line up in a phalanx to wait, and behind them, like a long dragon-like procession endlessly, the smoke and dust brought by the horse's hooves shrouded it, it seemed confusing, looming, as if there was no end to the Shenlong Mountain.
Wang Yong frowned, and said in shock: "Damn, why are there so many people? It should be more than 20,000, right?"
Chris pointed to the enemy troops who were already lined up at the bottom of the hill and said, "Of course there are more than 20,000, there should be more than 10,000 defenders who have just fled, and the infantry behind the cavalry phalanx should be them." β
Wang Yong said with a worried face: "There are more than 10,000 more enemy troops." β
Chris smiled and said, "I was worried that this cavalry would not accept those remnants at first, but now that the two troops are one, then our chances of victory are greater." β
Wang Yong tilted his head to look at Chris, and said with a stunned expression: "You can't be stupid with your brain, right?
Chris was about to open his mouth to help Wang Yong with literacy, but he saw the cigar butt on the ground, and immediately became addicted to smoking, but his cigar had long since been smoked. So he rolled his eyes, pretended to be dizzy, shook his head, and then said very weakly: "Boss, when you say this, I realized that I am really tired, and now I urgently need something to refresh me to sober up." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand in front of Wang Yong.
Wang Yong saw that Chris was a little shaky, and was about to go over to support this dedicated chief of staff, but found that his eyes were full of cunning, and he looked at the reverse scissor hand that Chris stretched out to him. Wang Yong knew what Chris's idea was. Seeing this, Mu Sen, Wani, Nuosen, Carat and others all looked at Wang Yong with a look of anticipation and eagerness.
Seeing this, Wang Yong hurriedly turned around, but when he didn't see it, he pointed to the enemy at the bottom of the mountain and said, "Look, they are coming." β
Chris and the others looked down the mountain, and saw that only a few squads of enemies were tentatively approaching, and pouted disapprerovitously, and then a group of smokers all stretched out their hands to Wang Yong. squeezed out Ying Wu, Qingling and others who were originally standing beside Wang Yong, which made the Qingling little girl dissatisfied for a while.
Wang Yong saw that he couldn't hide, glared at a group of smokers, gritted his teeth and said, "I really don't have much." This is the last time, and I won't want to do it anymore. After speaking, he bit his lip and took out the cigar with a sad face, and each of them got one.
Shadow Dance and Light Spirit and other women also came to join in the fun. On the grounds that one cannot be favored, everyone must also go to one and divide Wang Yong's inventory cleanly. However, Shadow Dance and the others did not light the cigar, but instead put in the Spirit Void Ring, which caused Wang Yong and Tie Mian to smile with satisfaction.
For a while, thick white eyes appeared on the city tower, so that the officers in the distance thought that the city tower was attacked, and they stood up and prepared to go over to support.
This cavalry unit of the Eternal Empire lost more than thirty elite scouts last night, knowing that the enemy must have masters or more scouts, so now they have changed their tactics and blatantly approached the pass in small teams, intending to see the situation of the pass more clearly.
When the first team of scouts rode cautiously to the outermost row of rejection horses, the leader of the team held his shield and looked at the enemies who were looking at each other on the wall of the pass not far away, and then asked his subordinates in disbelief: "How far can we be from the pass?"
The soldier replied, "It's about 500 meters or more." β
The team leader swallowed and foamed, and said with a cautious face: "Use the armor-piercing crossbow to shoot an ordinary crossbow arrow." β
Hearing this, the soldier armed with an armor-piercing crossbow replaced it with an ordinary wooden crossbow arrow and pulled the trigger on the smoking tower. After a muffled 'bang', the wooden crossbow bolts shot out at a rapid pace, and after cutting a long parabola, they landed almost two hundred meters from the city wall, and the enemy's counterattack arrows at the pass fell a hundred meters away from them in the face of their own provocation.
Seeing this, the team leader put down the shield in his hand, jumped off the horse and carefully touched the spiked rejection horse, and after not finding the danger, he turned his back and laughed, and pointed to the smoking tower in the pass and shouted: "Idiot." After saying that, he ordered his subordinates to go back and let the logistics department mobilize the carriage to come over.
Mu Sen on the castle tower gave the order to stop the soldiers from fighting back with their futile crossbow arrows, and then sighed in frustration as he gulped down his cigar.
Soon after, Wang Yong saw a convoy coming out of the enemy's growing formation, accompanied by a group of able-bodied soldiers, heading straight for the pass, followed by a cavalry phalanx of about 2,000 men, and put on a charge formation to try to approach the pass, and did not stop until it was the shortest distance from the pass and accelerated enough.
Seeing that this cavalry unit was slowly approaching, but Mu Sen and Chris did not issue any guards or other orders, Wang Yong turned his head in confusion and asked, "The enemy is coming, don't we need everyone to prepare for battle?"
Chris shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "They are not here to attack the city, what is there to prepare." β
Wang Yong was surprised and said, "It's not a siege city, so what are they doing here?"
Mu Sen sighed sadly and said, "Boss, you'll know in a while, alas, sad!"
Wang Yong patted Mu Sen, who was a little depressed, and comforted: "Be a man, be positive and optimistic, so that life is a little more colorful, you always sigh, it's easy to hang up." Mu Sen patted his head when he heard this, and he was speechless for a while.
While chewing on candy, Qingling pointed to the enemy at the bottom of the mountain and said, "Boss, why did they send so many carriages to fight first?"
Wang Yong shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's going to be used to collect the corpses of their own people." Hearing this, Chris choked on the cigarette he had just inhaled into his mouth and coughed violently.
Wang Yong then said to Qingling: "Look, Chief of Staff Chris also agrees with my guess. Chris coughed and rolled his eyes, as if he was really going to hang. (To be continued......)
