595 Blood and Fire, Battle for the North (9)
There was no sun in sight in the gray sky, dark clouds were piling up in the sky, and the wind was blowing through the grass, rolling the broken grass into the sky, as if there were some signs of rain.
Two days after entering the Wild Horse Grassland, Mollah finally saw the legendary Wild Horse Mountains, the green shade of the mountains is the same as the legend, the mountains are towering and spread for hundreds of miles, like a gate dividing the beautiful grassland in front of him into two.
As the legion entered the mountains, the cautious Molech found that there were no ambushes on the entire road across the mountains, and the only sound of the wind blowing through the trees was on the empty mountains.
It was only when I was about to get out of the mountain pass that I found a simple wooden camp blocking the road in front of me, the height of this wooden camp wall was only 2 meters high, the thin planks could be broken by a cavalry attack, and a lazy flag fluttered in the sky above this simple fortress, just like this simple wooden fort, which could be blown away by the wind at any time
"What an idiot!"
Molech looked at this dilapidated fortress destined to be trampled under the horse's hooves with some anger and pathetic, and he didn't know whether the Vikton Se was too confident, or completely ignored the importance of this mountain range in defense, as long as he was not a fool, he knew that the Mustang Mountain Range was the most important barrier of the Mustang steppe,
If a group of elites were placed here, the enemy could be temporarily stopped, but the fact that Viktonse had built a camp at the end of the mountain road was ridiculous enough to show that he was a completely ignorant fool in military affairs!
Molech chuckled at the corner of his mouth, rode on his horse and pointed at the wooden fort on the mountain road in front of him with his horsewhip, and said in a light tone to several legion commanders behind him, "The size of this wooden fort is only 200 meters wide, even if all the people in it are filled in, it will definitely not be more than 3,000 people,
It's a big joke to want to stop my 20,000 troops with such an arrangement, and I don't know which general is willing to take it for me!
"Let me do this mission!" a Mamunuk Legion Commander stepped forward from behind and offered to ask for help, and after getting Moleh's approval,
He drew his sword and shouted with great momentum, "Assault the whole army, take this pass before dark"
The wind that blew his head up, the sound of horses' hooves shattered the silence of the hills, and the horses of the Mamunuk knights raised swift shadows behind him, and bands of light infantry rushed up from behind
"Projectile!" With the shouts of the infantry captain, rows of short javelins were thrown high into the air from the hands of these light infantrymen, turning into white points of light, densely covering the color of the sky,
The sharp tip of the spear swooped deep into the planks of the fortress, making a crisp sound like raindrops falling to the ground.
This is the characteristic of the Salander infantry, and unlike the mainstream spearmen who engage in melee combat on the mainland, these lightly armed infantry, capable of throwing javelins, often serve as two-wing assault missions on the battlefield,
They would unleash a dense and deadly rain of javelins at the enemy before the Mamunuk's knights could launch a massive assault, and then follow the charging Mamunuk's knights, using their nimble round shields and long swords to smash through the gaps that the Mamunuk's knights had torn open, and if the attack was ineffective, the light infantry could quickly retreat.
Now they are swarming up the mountain like chickens.
The mountain is full of the shadows of these lightly armed infantry, these infantry wearing only light chain mail, in addition to the small round shield in their hands, the most eye-catching thing is the several short labels on the back, the end of the white wooden pole is a sharp spear made of pig iron, when climbing the mountain, these short javelins sway from side to side, looking full of funny,
When they rushed to the wooden castle, the light infantry realized that it was an empty castle.
"Haha......" Moleh, who got the news, was a little crying and laughing, he already looked down on his opponent, but he couldn't even reach the most ordinary soldier with a weak mind
"Order to speed up!" Molech waved his hand to the herald, "If you find such an empty fort again, don't bother me!"
The Mustang Plain is essentially a low-lying marshland north of Salander, with soft, fertile land and flat terrain making it one of the most beautiful meadows, with large emerald green pine forests dotted across the vast expanse. The grass on the slope of the earth hung its head low, and the tall and dense grass stems swayed with the wind blowing across the plains.
Turit Colleen stared out of the carriage window with her eyes narrowed, the golden sun shining on this fertile black land, the faint scent of grass mixed with the faint scent of wild violet, drifting in the air with the wind, the top of the mountain range lying like a dragon in the distance, and the white snow layer that was damp outward, and the coolness blowing from the snow layer reminded her of something very wonderful and past.
Leaning against the window of the car, Turit Colleen withdrew her gaze from the car a little lazily,
After staying in Vic City for so long, it was the first time she had seen the true scenery of the northern part of Salander, in the distant continent of Obarro, behind the main castle of the Burrows, there was also such a towering snow-capped mountain, and at this time of year, the verdant green of the mountains and the conspicuous white of the heights were Turit Colin's favorite beautiful picture that people will always be nostalgic for.
The situation in a foreign country flashed a trace of sadness on her beautiful and pretty face
"Where are we going?"
Turit Colin asked a female attendant sitting across from her, who was only about 20 years old, and was fairly handsome, with her hair draped over her shoulders in a very simple manner, a row of button-down tights, and a long sword pinned to her waist.
The female guard looked at her impatiently, she was a specially selected guard from Dustrenkay, because Tulit Colin was increasingly estranged from his maid, and out of the need for safety, Dustrenkai specially transferred a female guard from the Admiralty, this female guard was originally the daughter of a village chief of a fishing boat in the south, and two older brothers served in the Vechia army, and they were extremely reliable in terms of loyalty
"Melenburg!"
The female guard's face was cold, but she didn't dare to offend the woman who asked questions all the way.
This is the prisoner whom Lord Dustrenkai personally named and asked for a "safe" escort, and some people privately said that this woman with long purple hair and a little more bewitching than a flower may be Lord Dustrenke's secret lover.
You must know that the personable Lord Dustrunkai, but the most famous platinum-level king of the Admiralty, is not only highly respected by the Grand Duke, but also the commander of a fleet at the age of 25, which can be described as a promising future.
There are even rumors that Commander Dustrenkay will soon be transferred to the Admiralty as the deputy head of the headquarters, which is the highest position of power under the commander-in-chief, and who can step into this ranks, which one is either a well-known figure in Wikia, or the commander-in-chief, in fact, strictly speaking, that is, the level of a deputy in an army corps
Turit Colin didn't know that she had inadvertently become a thorn in the side of many women.
Just when the two were in a cold war, a simple wooden castle gradually appeared in front of it, a brown wooden city wall, lying on a hill, in front of the wooden castle, was a large wasteland,
Purple starry violets grew on this abandoned land, and the flowers passed through the stems of the dry wood and grass, and a dark purple lace was inlaid on the edge of the fields of the plains.
Even on the hard wasteland as stone, many light purple colors could be seen as crystal as a child's eyes, and between these purple stars, a group of black-armored cavalry quickly galloped from the opposite hill,
These were like black-armored cavalrymen in the darkness, the hooves of the bowl-sized horses flew up the tumbling fertile earth, the brown horse's mane fluttered in the wind, and the black metal armor shone with a dark luster in a large purple patch,
"Whew" the wind blew, and Turit Colin felt a faint smell of blood, as if it exploded in front of him, and the fierce cavalry turned into several phantoms, almost like arrows, flashing past Turitcolin's carriage,
His gaze swept over a slightly chubby figure in front of him, and Turit Colin's pretty face showed a frightened expression,
"Dead fat?"
Turit Colin almost jumped up from the carriage seat, her white fingers habitually covering her rosy and sexy lips, and she let out a low cry of disbelief, her eyes were complicated and a little flickering as she looked at the black-armored cavalry
At this moment, Turit Colin saw that the fat man was riding by, and he actually squeezed his eyes playfully, which frightened Turit Colin, who was still in shock.
I don't know what, Turit Colin felt that the fat man's eyes were a little bubbly in the past, but at this moment, they were as sharp as a sword, and even a little contempt for the common people.
It is a kind of extremely confident expression, only the kind of person who has been in the top position for a long time and holds the power of life and death has it, and the person who can have this kind of eyes when he thinks about life and death, if he is not a person who ignores life and death, he must be a person at the top of society
"That's right, it's a dead fat man!"
Even if Turiet Colin was about to rub her pink eyes into a panda, she had to be extremely frustrated to be sure that the guy who flashed by just now was definitely the mysterious fat man of the day.
Although this dead fat man put on the armor and completely seemed to be a different person, that honest demeanor has turned into a fierce momentum that people dare not look at under the backdrop of this black armor, the war horse is like thunder, and the black-armored cavalry behind him is closely following, and the murderous posture is really a bit like a general galloping on the battlefield
Turit Colling's heart was filled with mixed bitterness for a while, and now she finally knew why the Wikivians had significantly relaxed their surveillance of herself after the last night of passion.
Not only can he come and go in and out of the naval harbor at will, but he also wanders around Vic City without any restraints, except for the occasional finding himself far behind a few people
"This fat guy can't really be a big deal, right?"
Turit Colin looked at the fat man's back with a resentful face, her eyes were swollen, no matter how stupid she was, she could now feel that this fat man was not an ordinary investigator, how could there be an investigator with a guard behind her ass!
"Do you know him?"
It took a long time for Turit Colin to retract her head from the carriage, and asked the female guard sitting opposite her with a curious expression, but unfortunately she asked the wrong person, this time the female guard who was responsible for escorting her to Morenburg was just an ordinary female soldier of the Admiralty, a civilian from the coast, who mainly held some positions in the Admiralty such as registrar, financial accountant, etc., but did not know the real boss Samol Fatty, and the regular army of Vicchia has always been stationed on the border, not ordinary civilians can see
"I don't know, but I know it must be a big shot!"
The corners of the female guard's mouth curled, and she withdrew her gaze from the window with envy on her face, and said, "To be able to have so many cavalry follow, at least a banner commander! It's a pity that I don't know much about the army, otherwise I would be able to guess the identity of this noble lord!"
Just now, not only Turit Colin was startled, but even the female guard with a few pockmarks on her face was also startled, thinking that this adult was interesting to her.
Now that I heard Turit Colin ask, there was a little more vinegar in my words,
"This dead fat man is a flag leader!" Turit Colling's face was pale, half-convinced, she didn't expect the fat man's identity to be so high, she wanted to continue to ask, but the coldness and disgust on the face of the female guard opposite undoubtedly dispelled the possibility of her continuing to ask,
But the information she got just now was enough to make her mood look better.
With her knowledge of the military position of Wiki these days, she knew that in addition to the several regimental commanders with transcendent status and prestige, a flag commander was enough to easily step into the ranks of senior officers of Wikia, and the commander who captured her own Dustrenke was also at the level of a flag commander in the military rank.
The carriage continued to move forward, and as the wooden castle got closer and closer, the scene in front of him also changed, and the noisy voices of people came like ocean waves.
Turning the hill in front, on the land overgrown with flowers, countless white tents, like white clouds covering the other half of the hill, soldiers in armor appeared on the periphery of the wooden fort like waves, and from time to time heralds rode by the carriage.
"This ...... It's the Legion building!"
Turit Colin heard the female guard on the other side, and from time to time let out bursts of disbelief in exclamation, and from time to time her face excitedly pointed to some soldiers who appeared in the distance and shouted
"Behold, this is definitely the real Samour Guard, and I recognize the kind of heavy armor forged from fine black iron, which only a true Guard can equip! I used to hear those retired guys brag about it in the Navy, but I didn't expect to see it one day."
"Guards, how is this different from a normal soldier?"
Turit Colin rolled her eyes noncommittally, although the fat man gave her an accident, she was not optimistic about this pure infantry configuration from a different continent,
Whether it is the Ikadiva Continent or the Obaro Continent, the combination of light and heavy horse warfare is the mainstream, a knight wearing heavy armor can definitely easily defeat a team of 20 infantry, these nondescript soldiers, there is no place to see the power, even if it is powerful, it is infantry, the infantry will never be able to defeat the cavalry, this is the principle of heaven!,
"You know what, the Samol Guards are the strongest warriors in our Vikia, they are invincible, they are invincible!
The female guard was obviously a die-hard fan of Samor Konoeke, and she glanced at this arrogant purple-haired beauty with disdain, and after realizing that the purple-haired beauty in front of her didn't know the meaning behind the name at all,
began to chatter endlessly about the glorious war history of the Samore Guards, starting from Samore's frontal defeat of the Left Guard cavalry that was ravaging the country, and all the way to the battle of northern hegemony, once again defeating the cavalry-based continental overlord Rui Erdianren with inferior troops,
I only heard Turit Colleen stunned for a moment,
Although the female guard did not say in detail, it was enough to make Turiet Colin listen to the blood boiling, and her eyes sparkled, beautiful women do not necessarily love heroes, but women definitely like legends,
What's more, the woman of the Burrows family, who is known for her dependence on powerful forces, she only knew that Vekia Falcon was known as the most powerful man in this continent, but she didn't know that this man was actually in a desperate situation where the country was broken, and he magically rose as a lone army
A falcon that flew out of a declining family, fought a hundred battles in the south, and with a series of jaw-dropping records, let the weak Vikia step by step step into the position of a continental power,
"You don't want to tell me, that fat man is the flag leader of the main flag group, right?" Turit Colin couldn't help but smile bitterly, the disdain just now was almost crushed by this smug maid, and his gaze at the castle again became more solemn,
The wooden castle door slowly opened, the carriage drove into the fortress, and the door to the castle hall stopped, where a woman in a turquoise dress had waited, and saw the carriage carrying Turit Colin enter, accompanied by several maids, from the steps of the hall Shi Shiran approached
"Miss Colleen! Welcome to Melenburg!" Mao Mona Qing opened the door very elegantly, and came as bright and delicate as rose petals, and on the delicate and delicate eyes, a pair of watery and deep eyes, as pure as a dream, exuded a quiet and cold brilliance.
"It's you!" Turit Colin looked stunned for a moment, and quickly recognized the peerless beauty in front of her as the mysterious woman who had entered her room in the middle of the night
"I haven't seen her for a few days, but Miss Colleen is getting more and more beautiful, no wonder the adults always miss it!"
The corners of Mao Mona's green mouth chuckled, her bright red lips closed slightly, she exhaled like an orchid, and waved to the hall behind her, "Please take a rest in the castle, my lord needs to deal with it urgently because of some important matters!"
"Sir, do you mean the fat man?" asked Turit Colleen, with a puzzled expression.
"Hehe, my sister forgot, my sister doesn't know the identity of an adult yet!"
Mao Mona Qing took the doubtful Turit Colin by hand, walked up the steps in front of him, and said as he walked, "Actually, the adult didn't mean to lie to you, after that night, the adult specially instructed Dustrunkai to protect your safety and relax your restrictions, presumably my sister can feel it, and I don't want to continue to hide it when I pick up my sister this time."
