Chapter 071: Disrupting the Plan

The weather in the north is as complex and changeable as its topography, and the warm sunshine of the previous two days is gone, replaced by patches of dark clouds. After a whole day of brewing, the raindrops finally fell at noon the next day.

At this time, the sixth official encirclement and suppression of the Bran Kingdom was continuing. Compared with the previous five times, there has been obvious progress in this encirclement and suppression. Although they have not yet achieved great results, at least they are now catching up with the main force of the Grey Army. Unlike the previous few times, chasing scattered teams all over the mountains, and then chasing and chasing found that the people were gone, and it was best to have no choice but to stop.

In the mountain clearing, the soldiers of the three major legions were taking a short rest. Ralph and the others are all experts in the use of soldiers, and they know how to do it. So instead of letting the soldiers chase after the fatigue of day and night, they kept hanging at a constant speed behind the gray-clothed army.

Because it was only a break halfway, except for the Chinese army's tent, the other soldiers' tents were not set up. All the soldiers lowered their heads to avoid the rain, some seized the time to take a nap, and some took out their military rations and gnawed silently...... At this moment, a terrible voice sounded,

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Alert!"

Boom - splashing water. The soldiers on the ground quickly turned over, the shield infantry immediately formed a phalanx, the light armor ran to the rear to hide, and the archers began to assemble...... From this short momentary reaction, you may know that Weishenme's fierce and barbaric Northern Wilderness people have not succeeded in defeating the northern part of Bran so far.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......

At this moment, a large number of arrows suddenly shot from the dense forest next to the clearing, mixed with rain, and fell from the soldiers' heads.

Bang bang bang......

Most of the arrows were blocked by shields, and of course, some of the soldiers were too late to react. Or it is a little slower and is nailed directly to the ground. The blood flowed on the ground and was instantly diluted by the rain.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......

After the first round of arrow rain, there was a slight pause, and the second and third rounds of arrow rain came in an instant. However, the effect of these two rounds of arrow rain was minimal, and the soldiers of the three major legions had all been crawling and fighting on the battlefield, and any gap would be caught by them.

"Damn it. Again...... The soldiers on the left and right flanks obeyed the order and attacked and encircled. The archers obeyed the order, headed northwest, and suppressed me!" Furious roared.

When the words landed, the pikemen on the left and right flanks rushed out without hesitation like a long dragon, and quickly surrounded this dense forest. At the same time, a large number of arrows were fired back into the dense forest. The sound of beating leaves through the forest kept coming.

By this time, however, the attacks in the jungle had disappeared. After the soldier's arrow rain entered, there was no screaming and muffled snorting.

Soon. The attacking soldiers walked out of the dense forest, and the captains and officers in front were helpless stall holders. The gesture yielded nothing, and there was no one inside.

Seeing this, the big man had a gloomy face: "The scout team has expanded the search area and strengthened its vigilance!" After speaking, he lifted the curtain and walked into the big tent with hatred.

The tent was quite large, and there were many people gathered, most of whom were discussing around the map. Due east, two generals in high-class armor sat on them.

"How. General Barlow?" The middle-aged general with a gloomy face spoke.

", what else...... Ran away. The big man sat down depressedly. Grabbed the kettle in front of the table and poured it violently.

"These Grey Coats...... Alas, not to be underestimated!"

The three generals were, of course, Ralph, Barlow, and Gehry. The Grey Army's larger-than-expected numbers of men led the trio to gather the legion in pursuit.

Although the two sides are now almost equal in numbers, there is no doubt about the strength of the regular army. So Barlow and the others are not worried about not being able to win, the problem now is that they don't have a chance to fight at all...... Since the last time the Grey Army broke through from the Cangyan Legion, they have never fought them head-on. Note that it is positive. The Gray Army's daily sneak attacks and harassment are constant.

Originally, when the army was advancing, there were scouts in front of them to explore the way, and under normal circumstances, the possibility of a surprise attack would be eliminated. But where is this? This is a hundred thousand mountains. All kinds of strange terrain make the scouts who reconnoitre also powerless. For example, there was a steep mountain in front of you, and before the scouts could climb it, the troops behind came, and then a large number of arrows rained down on it. Another example is passing through a large jungle, and no matter how large the number of scouts there are, there will inevitably be omissions. And then when the legion passed, it was rightfully another rain of arrows......

Although this situation is deliberately guarded, the damage is not great. But if this is the case, it will undoubtedly affect the morale of the soldiers. Barlow and the others didn't think about luring these sneak attack troops, but the other party was a longbowman every time, and they only released three rounds of arrow rain at most. In the future, even if the opportunity is good, they will retreat decisively. If you don't eat the bait, you won't be able to catch it...... There are three major legions, but the elite soldiers are unable to use their strength. Barlow: They are quite depressed right now.

"Just wait!" Ralph sat there for a long time, and finally came up with a sentence.

Although it was a bit of a headless feeling, the other two could understand it.

Call...... Barlow let out a long breath of turbidity: "Yes, let them be arrogant for two more days." When the lord's soldiers are in place, I will show them what the regular army of Bran is!"

"Lord Soldier...... I'm afraid they won't use it!" said Gehry, looking rather dismissive.

"They don't need to be useful. Barlow said with a big grin, "As long as they can reach the designated location at the specified time, block the road of the Grey Army." Tut-tut, even if it is more than 20,000 pigs, we have to kill them for a while, enough for us to arrive. ”

"Hmph......" Gary snorted, but didn't object to Barlow's claim.

When I first knew that the main force of the Gray Clothes Army was in the valley, the three major legions came directly to encircle and suppress it, and the soldiers of the four lords were arranged to guard the periphery and fight soy sauce. Who would have thought that Zuihou would have broken through strongly from the west. The siege turned into a long pursuit, and Barlow remembered the lord's soldiers. At that time, there were only the soldiers of Lord Solomon guarding the west, and they would definitely not be able to stop it. The three generals discussed, simply asked them to keep back, and then sent scouts to inform the lords in other directions to keep moving closer to Solomon.

In fact, the three major legions are now camping on time and eating on time, which seems to be unhurried and unhurried, but in fact it is also a strategy, they are driving the escape rhythm of the gray-clothed army. At present, this strategy has an effect, and the gray army is not desperately rushing now, but has spent some effort on these continuous sneak attacks.

In this way, as long as the soldiers of the three major lords walk a little more distance every day, they will eventually overtake the gray army from the side, and then make peace with Lord Solomon. As long as they are blocked in front of the Grey Army...... Well, Barlow is right, even if more than 20,000 pigs are blocked on one road, it will take a lot of effort to clean up.

At this moment, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a herald entered.

"General, this is an urgent message from the rear armament department. "The soldier belonged to the Thunder Legion, so naturally he gave the letter to Barlow.

"Hmm. Barlow bowed his head slightly, and opened it casually: "The Armaments Department, the materials have been delivered, and when did those officials and masters work so quickly......

Bang!

The voice paused, and the desk fell apart! Barlow's palm stopped in mid-air, his face dark.

There was a sudden silence in the big tent, except for the popping sound of raindrops falling on the roof, and everyone looked away.

"General Barlow?" asked Gehry.

Crackle! stretched out his palm and squeezed it tightly, retracting it, the bone joint made a popping sound, and Barlow's chest gasped several times: "Fool mistake! Fool mistake...... Most of the supplies were burned on the way!"

"What?" Gary was startled, his eyes widened instantly! On the other side, Ralph, who had always been expressionless, was also full of surprise at this time.

The officers in the big tent were also shocked by this news, and immediately discussed it.

The people in the armaments department did not dare to hide this news. In fact, this news cannot be concealed, otherwise if the troops attack in general tomorrow, the food delivered today will not be able to fill the stomachs of the soldiers, and then the problem will be big.

"How can it be ......" After digesting this sentence, Gary subconsciously shook his head, "Isn't the supply team in our rear? How could it be burned...... Bandits? Can't they, they have the guts?"

"It says it's the Gray Army......"

"Uh......" Gary looked at Barlow, his tone a little inexplicable, "what did you say...... What are we chasing......

Ralph picked up the paper on the ground and looked at it with a frown.

"It's a small force of the Grey Army, it seems that there are only a dozen people...... What a fucking shame!" With that, Barlow held out his hand again, but there was no table to shoot at this point.

"A dozen people...... Burned most of the supplies...... "Gary's face was gloomy as if he could drip water, and he roared in a low voice, "The shame of the soldiers, you should go directly to the gallows!"

"Strange. Ralph looked up at the letter and said, "Where did you come from?"

Naturally, he said that there were more than a dozen people who burned grain, which is indeed a question. If the Grey Army had been left behind, it would have been impossible to send such a small number of people. But no matter how he thought about it, he wouldn't know that this was just a group of sad lying guns.

"I don't care where they come from. Gary squinted murderously, "I just want to know when they're going to die!"

"On a rainy day, you can't burn anything...... The letter said that an extermination team had been dispatched, and that it should be dead now. "After many years of fighting, I have seen a lot of wind and waves, Barlow finally suppressed his anger at this time, and then shook his head with a wry smile, "It's not a pity for this group of people to die, but our Jihua, alas, ......"

The supplies couldn't keep up, and they originally planned to catch up with Jihua, who was in the gray army in the past two days, but naturally they were completely soaked.

"Someone, order the scouts to immediately inform the lord soldiers and let them run forward a little further. As for the specific time of the attack...... We'll let you know when it happens. Barlow was also afraid of the group of fools in the rear, and he didn't dare to set an exact time until the supplies were confirmed. Then he thought that because of this, he would have to endure the sneak attack and harassment of the gray-clothed army for a few more days, and he couldn't help but raise his head and sigh: "The lion and tiger-like opponent is terrifying, but this pig ...... Pigs are not as good as their teammates are the real scourge!" (To be continued.) )
