Transmigration of the bastard lord
Chapter 178 The Never-ending Wind
During the spat between Seeger and King Zimmerman, the military department was not idle; a long side wall was built outside the White Farm, bunkers, dark spots, and even more so.
Don't get me wrong, the so-called side wall is not a fortification like the Great Wall. That thing is too difficult, and only a certain ancestor dragon can do it; the side wall referred to here is the defense determined by the military after the actual survey line, dig trenches in advance, store food and grass, set up hidden piles every few miles, and blockhouses made of blue bricks and cement; and between the hidden piles and blockhouses, set up arrow towers and beacon towers, set up traps in front, and level off the rear. the way.In this way, no matter which direction the Orlando & Ernes coalition forces attack from, Hydesy can respond in time.
Naturally, because Orlando's cavalry is too famous, the preset battlefield must be full of potholes, so that their cavalry must not be able to sprint.
Nearly [-] coalition forces were coming. The militia members who acted as scouts saw from a distance that the highlands they had chosen as their camps were densely packed with people, and the edge could not be seen at a glance.
On Hydesey's side, the total strength of the troops is only over ten thousand, which is quite pitiful compared to that; but after the brave ranger Viddy and the goblin walker Toby got closer, they couldn't laugh or cry. .
As the main army, the Orlando Legion is naturally in the center of the camp, and their tents are quite neat; the outer circle is the private soldiers of various noble families in the Orlando Territory and Ernes Territory. The tents are large and small, and some are gorgeous. Some of them are so simple that they can barely be seen; the outer circle is the auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands. Let alone tents, it is considered exquisite to build a linen shed; more people sit on the ground and walk on the spot, or around the camp. Running around, looking for anything to put in your mouth...
"...It's not so much an army, it's more like a refugee..." These days, he lived and ate and lived with the people in the military headquarters. Ranger Viddy had a high vision and looked down on this messy camp for a while.
Goblin Toby, who was also from the Nice militia like Vidi, looked at Vidi with a strange look: "Dude, I think something is wrong with you these days, are you going to abandon the boss of Nice?"
"Shut up!" If it wasn't for lying prone in the grass, Viddy would have jumped up and beat Toby, "Do I look like the kind of person who is always on the go?"
"Like. You and Athel are the same kind. I just saw him hooking up with people from the military department a few days ago..." Goblin Toby didn't show any mercy.
"Come on... I ain't leaving Boss Ness, shut your stinking mouth; we've got to go back and report... Ah, I miss Natalie a little bit."
"Excuse me...you and Natalie are like brothers, sisters, but not lovers..."
"...after the battle I think we need a duel, Toby."
Naturally, Vidi and Toby's team were not the only ones who accepted the scout mission. After the news about the Orlando & Ernes coalition was sent back to the headquarters, Monica, who served as the deputy commander, raised her eyebrows and looked at one of the militiamen. Big man: "Alex, I remember that your mining area is always crying about the lack of labor?"
Professional strongmen who failed to enter the four major official military organizations of the People's Army, the Security Division, the Security Department, and the City Defense Team were all assigned to the militia during the war.As the leader of the mining company, Alexis naturally led a group of brothers in the company to contribute to the militia.
Before joining the engineering team, Alex was not a strong professional. The only outstanding thing was the strong body inherited from his father. However, after three years of daily training, he has reached the level of a first-level fighter; Asked, this seemingly rough but careful mining boss stood up: "Yes, Mr. Monica, the manpower gap in several mining areas adds up to tens of thousands."
Monica clapped her hands: "Okay, then this matter is easy to solve. Ryan, Anna, you get some people out. Tony, bring out the people who are in charge of the canteens in the countryside... They lack food, but we have. Instead of being consumed as cannon fodder, those peasants might as well go to our mining area to shine, guys, what do you think?"
Hai Desai has not had time to cultivate the habit of bureaucrats and evasion. In the military department, because the highest authority is only in the hands of the demigod, the training, transfer, and command authority are only temporary authority, so the most troublesome situation has not yet been formed. Mountain-top doctrine; Monica, who temporarily has command authority, orders, and the assigned departments immediately act.Not long after, several squadrons quietly left White Farm, crossed the side wall, and approached the coalition camp after a long journey.
The camp selected by the coalition forces was a high ground near a water source, surrounded by open plains, where there was no room for ambushes, and they could not move their hands or feet. It can be seen that the upper-level commanders of the coalition forces are not the kind of people who eat nothing.The inner circle of the camp was solemn and quiet. Soldiers on patrol shuttled between the tents. No one was making noise or walking around. It also showed that the Orlando Legion was indeed disciplined.But the outermost circle is not like this, with sparse tents, noisy and crowded crowds; slightly trained auxiliary soldiers know to stay where they are and follow the instructions of the adults, and the peasants with empty stomachs can't control so much.They have to carry luggage along the way and do work for the officers and gentlemen. If there is a stalemate after the war begins, they have to brandish wooden sticks as cannon fodder for the former army to charge into battle; under such high pressure, the officers and gentlemen will not give them food How could the civilian husband continue to obey?
Of course, given the huge gap in strength between the professional level and ordinary civilians, these civilians dare not play mutiny, but if they are hungry, they can always find something to eat by themselves; the coalition forces are not too strict in this regard Anyway, these mud-legged people are in an enemy situation, so they are not afraid of them daring to escape.
A group of civilian husbands supported each other and left the camp, aiming at a low forest.Some people took out bird eggs there before, and they smelled the smell of other people eating boiled eggs, and they were very greedy, so they naturally wanted to try their luck.
There are about a dozen people in this line of folk husbands. The older ones have silver hair, and the younger ones have childish faces. They seem to be quite familiar with each other, probably from the same village.For protection against wild beasts, each carried a sharpened stick; but judging from their sallow, muscular faces, and wobbly gait, it was doubtful whether they would have been able to use that stick when they encountered a wild beast. use.
"Father, there's bird droppings here!" The young man at the head looked happy when he found the dirt in the grass; the old farmer who was surrounded by him raised his head and squinted his eyes to look around the surrounding trees, pointing to a certain place, "Yes, where is it?"
The young man kept the stick in his hand, and trotted over to climb the tree; but before his bare feet reached the tree trunk, his movements stopped, he tilted his head in doubt, and twitched vigorously. Sniffed.
"It smells so good..." The youngest and youngest boy among the folk husbands called out. The boy who hadn't eaten for a few days was already hungry. After being fed this incense, he suddenly felt hungry, and the fragrance came from his feet unconsciously. place to run.The others were startled and uncertain at first, but when they saw the young man running extremely fast, they lost control and followed suit.
If you smell strange scents in the wilderness in normal times, most people would probably not have the guts to lean over them; but these folks are dying, and they have not eaten for several days, and their eyes are green, so how can they care about it? Gotta get on this.
The group of peasants didn't run for long, when they saw an iron pot set up behind a bush, with fragrant vegetable soup floating in it; beside the iron pot, there was a dustpan made of bamboo, piled full of fat white steamed buns .
These peasants had never seen steamed buns before, so they were taken aback by this "monster" of white flour; but the vegetable soup in the iron pot was really fragrant, and there seemed to be sliced meat, green vegetables, and radishes floating in it, which made a group of people drooling and staring at each other. squint.
"Old, old man, this... is this someone who forgot to be here?" The boy who ran over first rubbed his pants with his hands, and looked longingly at the elder among the group of peasants; Si's old man had never seen such a scene before, so Gululu swallowed, his eyes glued to the soup pot and he couldn't bear to move away, "...There is no one around here... Could, could it be a gift from the Mother God?"
There is always a sense of guilt in stealing other people's things. These civilian husbands who were just ordinary farmers a dozen days ago are naturally inferior to those soldiers who are good at burning, killing, and looting; but if it is said that this is a reward from the mother earth - then hesitate what? !
The witty old man found a good excuse, and the young man couldn't bear it any longer. He rushed to the iron pot like a hungry tiger, and regardless of the steaming soup, he reached out to grab a handful of vegetable leaves and stuffed them into his mouth.
The quality of this soup is actually not very good. The green vegetables that are the most abundant in Hydesai, the radishes that are almost as abundant, and the fish pieces with melted spines are added, and some salt and pepper are sprinkled.But there is no place in this world other than Hydside where such effort can be made in food; the boy put the vegetable leaves into his mouth for the first time, his eyes lit up, he didn't care that his red fingers were still aching, I picked up another handful of radish leaves.
Seeing that the young man ate two big mouthfuls, the gluttons in the stomachs of the others were overwhelmed, and they swarmed around the pot, grabbing it with their black and dirty hands.
Now that they have touched the vegetable soup, they will not resist the unfamiliar white flour food in the dustpan.It was still the young man who grabbed the steamed buns first, and young people are always quicker to accept new things; the steamed buns made of delicate wheat and rice mixed with bean dregs are naturally inferior in taste to those made of pure white flour; but has this country boy ever eaten This soft and delicious staple food that does not grind your teeth or scratch your mouth?After just two mouthfuls, the young man shouted with joy, "Father God, Mother Earth, Dad, this, this bread is really delicious!"
Well, it seems that the local aborigines who see noodles for the first time will be paranoid that it is a new kind of bread...
The steamed buns and vegetable soup that are enough for 20 people, all these folks eat with pious face—yes, pious, how can there be such delicious food in the world?This must be the Mother Earth who took pity on them and rewarded them.
After quite a storm, even the soup at the bottom of the pot was carefully wiped clean with steamed buns; the folks who were full looked at each other, reached for the iron pot, and wanted to take it away... Then, There's no after that.
Well, don't hit me; the actual situation is that a fishing net suddenly dropped from the heads of these peasants who were sitting very close together, which scared the peasants who had just had a full meal; Jumped down, dragged the men who were scared like hamsters out of the fishing net one by one, tied their hands and gagged their mouths, and led them away in a row...
This team of professional strong men is a militia team composed of women's teams. Lydia casually said something when she took the bravest boy out of the fishing net, and made these militiamen become honest one by one. Resisting, not even screaming: "We are from Hyderside, come with us, and you will be full in the future."
This female militia team should be regarded as the first shot of the "labor force capture plan". When they took the spoils to the resettlement point, one member couldn't help complaining: "I think this fishing net is a bit redundant. Let's stand on the tree and wait foolishly." Kinda stupid. Why don't you just bring out the food and let them go with us in the first place?"
Lydia rubbed her chin, deeply convinced.
When another group of hungry coalition men with green eyes entered the undergrowth, Lydia, who sold better than others, came out with a dustpan full of steamed buns; Dia stuffed it with a steamed bun.
"Will you come with us? There is something to eat." Lydia held a steaming steamed bun with a smile on her face.
The man, who was full of the fragrance of wheat in his mouth and hurriedly swallowed the steamed buns, clutched his neck vigorously and nodded ferociously.
"Who will bring him some soup first!" Lydia waved her hand.
On July [-]th, when the coalition forces had a day of recuperation and set off on the road, the officials in charge of the civilians made a general count of the number of people, and were taken aback for a moment; they counted again and confirmed that the final number had not changed. looking at each other...
Just, just such a one-night effort, more than 3000 people are missing? !
At noon on the [-]th, the coalition forces marched [-] miles to the east of White Farm and formally entered the reserve battlefield designated by Monica.
At this distance, standing on the top of the mountain, you can vaguely see the endless farmland connected to the sky in the distance. The officers who were disgraced by the military ration crisis suddenly lifted their spirits; The Arrow Tower had to stop temporarily to find a suitable area for camping.
It has to be said that this plane of high martial arts and high magic relies too much on the personal ability of the commander and the combat power of professional soldiers. The art of war is not as neat as those old military strategists in the ancient dynasty.The vanguard arrived at the preparatory place at noon, and the tail hanging behind probably just left the old camp at this time... Under such a favorable time, place and people, if Hydesy still ignores it, then why not Nika's title as a tactical master has to be questioned.
Of course, Monica's title of master tactician is not in vain. Her Mifensi spread across two continents; In the narrow valley, the soldiers of the People's Army who had been ambushing for a long time appeared from various bunkers and attacked brazenly!
The vanguard of the coalition passed through this valley a few hours ago, but those guys were just private soldiers sent by the nobles who were on the same front as the Coleridge family in the Orlando territory. As for the prestigious Orlando Legion, its cavalry will be subject to certain restrictions in this valley, but it can also launch a small charge. In Rennes' view, it is the most suitable opponent for "training".
This cavalry team is composed of [-] heavy armored spearmen and [-] medium armored swordsmen; if they are in full condition, they still need [-] swords and shields to assist them, that is, auxiliary soldiers; but now their walking swords and shields have not yet Entering the valley, the enemy is already in front of the nose!
The name of the commander of the cavalry was Randolph Coleridge, bastard son of the Coleridge family, and brother-in-law of Lord Adrian Coleridge.He was accompanied by twenty personal guards, a military officer, and two attendants; in his opinion, this expedition was a reward given to him by the earl's brother. After two farms, he can also get a lot of benefits.Randolph, who was riding on a wolf, was talking with his military officer in a low voice about some interesting anecdotes that men would have. Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead, which even affected him, the Master Chief who was sitting in the middle.
"What happened?!" Randolph yelled loudly, and the guards around him immediately waved their whips and pulled a few soldiers who were out of formation from their horses, and the turbulent queue quickly subsided.
"Master Chief! There's an ambush ahead!" The communications soldier galloped forward and shouted from afar.
"Ha! I thought it was a big deal!" Randolph was quite similar to Earl Coleridge when he had a straight face, and this natural advantage also won him a lot of capital in the army, "Calm down Some! A poor place like Hydesy can afford to support any powerful people, and it depends on those religious pickets!"
Randolph's personal guards laughed at the right time, and the communications soldier's face changed, but he didn't dare to say anything after all; Randolph didn't pay attention to his attitude, and shouted loudly in his natural majesty and calmness, "Steady and steady!" Go forward, support the front!"
The People's Army currently has a total of [-] soldiers. Among them, the two companies of Adam and Anadurna are sweeping along the Roca Mountains with Andrew, and all the rest of the soldiers participated in the ambush.Ren and Sil were leading the team, and more than [-] people were ambushed in each of the two ambush points.When the tail of the vanguard happened to be stuck at the exit of the valley, and most of the cavalry had entered the valley, Ren signaled the buglemen to sound the attack horn, and then he threw off the green leaf camouflage on his body, and led the people out with a big sword in his hand. A pass jumped out.
If the cavalry with most of their bodies stuck in the valley was described as a long snake, then Ren would hit Qicun directly, and Xier's target was the belly of the snake!
"The first and third companies are right in the middle!" Ren took the lead, and the instructor who followed him took on the task of mobilizing the formation; the Orlando cavalry who was hit by seven inches was in chaos, and the second-rank soldier of Sig's private corps, the current people, was born. Herman, the military instructor, seized the opportunity and let the two sharp knife companies serve as Ren's wings, inserting them cleanly!
"Kill!" Ren roared, smashing the head of a cavalry first, and striding forward, he was already stuck in the formation of the cavalry, swinging a large sword like a door in his hand, and the cavalry on the left and right were either killed or injured.
"Kill!" The first and third companies stepped in forcefully, and the saber, which was the most suitable for group battles and the easiest to use, slashed down like snowflakes, instantly expanding the wound that Renn had drawn in the cavalry.
"Second and fourth companies fill in!" Instructor Herman followed Renn to make up the knife, quickly observed the situation and made a judgment; the other two companies immediately replaced the flanks guarded by the first and third companies, and joined forces with the comrades in front The front line increases the tearing of the opponent's formation.
The terrain is too narrow and the distance is too close!The cavalry, which was supposed to be the natural enemy of the infantry, could not give full play to its advantages in a hurry. The cavalry, which was like a long snake formation, was cut off by seven inches within a few minutes of the exchange of fire!
"Fifth and Seventh Company to consolidate the Fourth Company!"
The two companies that had already been eager to try protruded from the rear to assist their comrades in rushing towards the snake head.
"Sixth, eighth company! Replace the sharp knife!"
Another two companies rushed forward screaming, replacing the first and third companies that served as the wings for Rennes.
The instructor Herman has a serious face, and he seems to be calm. In fact, he has been uneasy for a long time. The huge pressure made him sweat profusely; Retreat, replace the exhausted sharp knife company, and ensure the continuation of the combat power of your own troops; although before the battle, the big bosses of the military department took turns to give him psychological counseling, let him believe in himself, and follow the usual procedures during the practice; Thinking of the wealth and life of half of his comrades-in-arms in the People's Army on his shoulders, Herman couldn't maintain his normal mind.
Of course, the army in this world does not have an instructor. The soldiers’ attack formation, drills, and military expenditures are all controlled by the officers; Hydersay borrowed from the form of the modern army, and has a special instructor for drills, and the logistics department for military expenditures. There is an instructor in the battle against the enemy, which takes away the pressure of the officer and does not require the officer to bear too much burden; an officer with extraordinary combat power and bloody courage like Rennes is more able to take the lead in charging and breaking through on the battlefield The effect of the opponent's formation.
After cutting off the snake's head with such force, on the one hand, they must resist the rebound of the snake's body, and on the other hand, they must completely wipe out the snake's head. The soldiers of the People's Army can only face greater pressure; This kind of narrow passage in the valley can't form a formation at all; the front is already in a stalemate, but the rear can't use any force at all, and they will be pushed forward by people who don't know at the rear, ruining the back of the soldiers in front!
The company serving as the sharp knife company has been replaced three times, and the casualties of the cavalry team have also broken through double digits; after all, the opponent is a battle-tested veteran. Except for the three people who were hacked and killed by Rennes in the initial sneak attack, all the later people were killed. Extremely strenuous.At this scene, the junior officers couldn't sit still. A sergeant saw that his side was suppressed and couldn't retreat, so he had to turn around and report to the sergeant in the rear. Waiting to be beheaded to sacrifice the flag!
"What?!" Sergeant Chief Randolph, who thought it was just a small movement in front of him, almost dropped his eyes when he heard that more than a dozen riders had died in such a short period of time; , It is an elite soldier!
"The opponent is not a mob, but a real soldier! My lord, our cavalry cannot form a formation in this terrain... Can we temporarily abandon the army horses, retreat 300 meters, and fight again?" It is unreasonable to fight with the opponent in a narrow area that is not conducive to one's own side, and the formation of the opponent is obviously smoother than that of your own side, and the soldiers on the front line will be transferred to rest if they are slightly tired; Let's say that the formation is blunt, even the horses have become burdens; and because the rear is still advancing, the soldiers facing the front line are either exhausted or hacked to death, and they can't retreat at all!
"No way! Against those bumpkins in Shanghai Desai, our Orlando Legion actually chose to retreat?!" Randolph was furious. Although he was just a bastard who stood on the right team in the fight for succession and was promoted to the army, he also had great strength when he was young. Aristocratic arrogance—retreat?Where should I put my face?Push me over with your life!
"kill!"
Suddenly a thunderous roar rang in his ears, and Randolph, who was sitting on the back of the warg, shook his legs in fright, and quickly grabbed the rein; the angry Randolph turned his head suddenly, wanting to see who was so boldly frightened He, thus, he saw an extremely terrifying scene——
The mountains on both sides of this valley are not big mountains, but they are very steep, and there are almost no tall plants on the slopes.It is true that the kind of valley with lush forests will not be chosen as a road by people - because there will be many fierce beasts, and if you are unlucky, you may encounter monsters and monsters.
Looking at the ordinary thorns, bushes, and bushes, suddenly hundreds of soldiers in armor and holding big sabers jumped out. These people were wrapped in vines, and some of the hats woven from leaves on their heads didn't have time to take off. At first glance, it looked like a moving bush; the person who jumped out first did not hold a knife, but his hands were shining with dazzling pure fighting spirit—it was the third-tier fighter who led the team in an ambush in the middle, and the mascot of the People's Army Commander Xier Figgs!
——To make matters worse, their ambush was too close, and when they jumped out, they were almost close to the edge of the cavalry, and they could touch the horse's body with a single stroke of the saber!
Don't get me wrong, the so-called side wall is not a fortification like the Great Wall. That thing is too difficult, and only a certain ancestor dragon can do it; the side wall referred to here is the defense determined by the military after the actual survey line, dig trenches in advance, store food and grass, set up hidden piles every few miles, and blockhouses made of blue bricks and cement; and between the hidden piles and blockhouses, set up arrow towers and beacon towers, set up traps in front, and level off the rear. the way.In this way, no matter which direction the Orlando & Ernes coalition forces attack from, Hydesy can respond in time.
Naturally, because Orlando's cavalry is too famous, the preset battlefield must be full of potholes, so that their cavalry must not be able to sprint.

"...It's not so much an army, it's more like a refugee..." These days, he lived and ate and lived with the people in the military headquarters. Ranger Viddy had a high vision and looked down on this messy camp for a while.
Goblin Toby, who was also from the Nice militia like Vidi, looked at Vidi with a strange look: "Dude, I think something is wrong with you these days, are you going to abandon the boss of Nice?"

"Excuse me...you and Natalie are like brothers, sisters, but not lovers..."
"...after the battle I think we need a duel, Toby."
Naturally, Vidi and Toby's team were not the only ones who accepted the scout mission.

The steamed buns and vegetable soup that are enough for 20 people, all these folks eat with pious face—yes, pious, how can there be such delicious food in the world?This must be the Mother Earth who took pity on them and rewarded them.
After quite a storm, even the soup at the bottom of the pot was carefully wiped clean with steamed buns; the folks who were full looked at each other, reached for the iron pot, and wanted to take it away... Then, There's no after that.
Well, don't hit me; the actual situation is that a fishing net suddenly dropped from the heads of these peasants who were sitting very close together, which scared the peasants who had just had a full meal; Jumped down, dragged the men who were scared like hamsters out of the fishing net one by one, tied their hands and gagged their mouths, and led them away in a row...
This team of professional strong men is a militia team composed of women's teams. Lydia casually said something when she took the bravest boy out of the fishing net, and made these militiamen become honest one by one. Resisting, not even screaming: "We are from Hyderside, come with us, and you will be full in the future."
This female militia team should be regarded as the first shot of the "labor force capture plan". When they took the spoils to the resettlement point, one member couldn't help complaining: "I think this fishing net is a bit redundant. Let's stand on the tree and wait foolishly." Kinda stupid. Why don't you just bring out the food and let them go with us in the first place?"
Lydia rubbed her chin, deeply convinced.
When another group of hungry coalition men with green eyes entered the undergrowth, Lydia, who sold better than others, came out with a dustpan full of steamed buns; Dia stuffed it with a steamed bun.
"Will you come with us? There is something to eat." Lydia held a steaming steamed bun with a smile on her face.
The man, who was full of the fragrance of wheat in his mouth and hurriedly swallowed the steamed buns, clutched his neck vigorously and nodded ferociously.
"Who will bring him some soup first!" Lydia waved her hand.
On July [-]th, when the coalition forces had a day of recuperation and set off on the road, the officials in charge of the civilians made a general count of the number of people, and were taken aback for a moment; they counted again and confirmed that the final number had not changed. looking at each other...
Just, just such a one-night effort, more than 3000 people are missing? !
At noon on the [-]th, the coalition forces marched [-] miles to the east of White Farm and formally entered the reserve battlefield designated by Monica.
At this distance, standing on the top of the mountain, you can vaguely see the endless farmland connected to the sky in the distance. The officers who were disgraced by the military ration crisis suddenly lifted their spirits; The Arrow Tower had to stop temporarily to find a suitable area for camping.
It has to be said that this plane of high martial arts and high magic relies too much on the personal ability of the commander and the combat power of professional soldiers. The art of war is not as neat as those old military strategists in the ancient dynasty.The vanguard arrived at the preparatory place at noon, and the tail hanging behind probably just left the old camp at this time... Under such a favorable time, place and people, if Hydesy still ignores it, then why not Nika's title as a tactical master has to be questioned.
Of course, Monica's title of master tactician is not in vain. Her Mifensi spread across two continents; In the narrow valley, the soldiers of the People's Army who had been ambushing for a long time appeared from various bunkers and attacked brazenly!
The vanguard of the coalition passed through this valley a few hours ago, but those guys were just private soldiers sent by the nobles who were on the same front as the Coleridge family in the Orlando territory. As for the prestigious Orlando Legion, its cavalry will be subject to certain restrictions in this valley, but it can also launch a small charge. In Rennes' view, it is the most suitable opponent for "training".
This cavalry team is composed of [-] heavy armored spearmen and [-] medium armored swordsmen; if they are in full condition, they still need [-] swords and shields to assist them, that is, auxiliary soldiers; but now their walking swords and shields have not yet Entering the valley, the enemy is already in front of the nose!
The name of the commander of the cavalry was Randolph Coleridge, bastard son of the Coleridge family, and brother-in-law of Lord Adrian Coleridge.He was accompanied by twenty personal guards, a military officer, and two attendants; in his opinion, this expedition was a reward given to him by the earl's brother. After two farms, he can also get a lot of benefits.Randolph, who was riding on a wolf, was talking with his military officer in a low voice about some interesting anecdotes that men would have. Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead, which even affected him, the Master Chief who was sitting in the middle.
"What happened?!" Randolph yelled loudly, and the guards around him immediately waved their whips and pulled a few soldiers who were out of formation from their horses, and the turbulent queue quickly subsided.
"Master Chief! There's an ambush ahead!" The communications soldier galloped forward and shouted from afar.
"Ha! I thought it was a big deal!" Randolph was quite similar to Earl Coleridge when he had a straight face, and this natural advantage also won him a lot of capital in the army, "Calm down Some! A poor place like Hydesy can afford to support any powerful people, and it depends on those religious pickets!"
Randolph's personal guards laughed at the right time, and the communications soldier's face changed, but he didn't dare to say anything after all; Randolph didn't pay attention to his attitude, and shouted loudly in his natural majesty and calmness, "Steady and steady!" Go forward, support the front!"
The People's Army currently has a total of [-] soldiers. Among them, the two companies of Adam and Anadurna are sweeping along the Roca Mountains with Andrew, and all the rest of the soldiers participated in the ambush.Ren and Sil were leading the team, and more than [-] people were ambushed in each of the two ambush points.When the tail of the vanguard happened to be stuck at the exit of the valley, and most of the cavalry had entered the valley, Ren signaled the buglemen to sound the attack horn, and then he threw off the green leaf camouflage on his body, and led the people out with a big sword in his hand. A pass jumped out.
If the cavalry with most of their bodies stuck in the valley was described as a long snake, then Ren would hit Qicun directly, and Xier's target was the belly of the snake!
"The first and third companies are right in the middle!" Ren took the lead, and the instructor who followed him took on the task of mobilizing the formation; the Orlando cavalry who was hit by seven inches was in chaos, and the second-rank soldier of Sig's private corps, the current people, was born. Herman, the military instructor, seized the opportunity and let the two sharp knife companies serve as Ren's wings, inserting them cleanly!
"Kill!" Ren roared, smashing the head of a cavalry first, and striding forward, he was already stuck in the formation of the cavalry, swinging a large sword like a door in his hand, and the cavalry on the left and right were either killed or injured.
"Kill!" The first and third companies stepped in forcefully, and the saber, which was the most suitable for group battles and the easiest to use, slashed down like snowflakes, instantly expanding the wound that Renn had drawn in the cavalry.
"Second and fourth companies fill in!" Instructor Herman followed Renn to make up the knife, quickly observed the situation and made a judgment; the other two companies immediately replaced the flanks guarded by the first and third companies, and joined forces with the comrades in front The front line increases the tearing of the opponent's formation.
The terrain is too narrow and the distance is too close!The cavalry, which was supposed to be the natural enemy of the infantry, could not give full play to its advantages in a hurry. The cavalry, which was like a long snake formation, was cut off by seven inches within a few minutes of the exchange of fire!
"Fifth and Seventh Company to consolidate the Fourth Company!"
The two companies that had already been eager to try protruded from the rear to assist their comrades in rushing towards the snake head.
"Sixth, eighth company! Replace the sharp knife!"
Another two companies rushed forward screaming, replacing the first and third companies that served as the wings for Rennes.
The instructor Herman has a serious face, and he seems to be calm. In fact, he has been uneasy for a long time. The huge pressure made him sweat profusely; Retreat, replace the exhausted sharp knife company, and ensure the continuation of the combat power of your own troops; although before the battle, the big bosses of the military department took turns to give him psychological counseling, let him believe in himself, and follow the usual procedures during the practice; Thinking of the wealth and life of half of his comrades-in-arms in the People's Army on his shoulders, Herman couldn't maintain his normal mind.
Of course, the army in this world does not have an instructor. The soldiers’ attack formation, drills, and military expenditures are all controlled by the officers; Hydersay borrowed from the form of the modern army, and has a special instructor for drills, and the logistics department for military expenditures. There is an instructor in the battle against the enemy, which takes away the pressure of the officer and does not require the officer to bear too much burden; an officer with extraordinary combat power and bloody courage like Rennes is more able to take the lead in charging and breaking through on the battlefield The effect of the opponent's formation.
After cutting off the snake's head with such force, on the one hand, they must resist the rebound of the snake's body, and on the other hand, they must completely wipe out the snake's head. The soldiers of the People's Army can only face greater pressure; This kind of narrow passage in the valley can't form a formation at all; the front is already in a stalemate, but the rear can't use any force at all, and they will be pushed forward by people who don't know at the rear, ruining the back of the soldiers in front!
The company serving as the sharp knife company has been replaced three times, and the casualties of the cavalry team have also broken through double digits; after all, the opponent is a battle-tested veteran. Except for the three people who were hacked and killed by Rennes in the initial sneak attack, all the later people were killed. Extremely strenuous.At this scene, the junior officers couldn't sit still. A sergeant saw that his side was suppressed and couldn't retreat, so he had to turn around and report to the sergeant in the rear. Waiting to be beheaded to sacrifice the flag!
"What?!" Sergeant Chief Randolph, who thought it was just a small movement in front of him, almost dropped his eyes when he heard that more than a dozen riders had died in such a short period of time; , It is an elite soldier!
"The opponent is not a mob, but a real soldier! My lord, our cavalry cannot form a formation in this terrain... Can we temporarily abandon the army horses, retreat 300 meters, and fight again?" It is unreasonable to fight with the opponent in a narrow area that is not conducive to one's own side, and the formation of the opponent is obviously smoother than that of your own side, and the soldiers on the front line will be transferred to rest if they are slightly tired; Let's say that the formation is blunt, even the horses have become burdens; and because the rear is still advancing, the soldiers facing the front line are either exhausted or hacked to death, and they can't retreat at all!
"No way! Against those bumpkins in Shanghai Desai, our Orlando Legion actually chose to retreat?!" Randolph was furious. Although he was just a bastard who stood on the right team in the fight for succession and was promoted to the army, he also had great strength when he was young. Aristocratic arrogance—retreat?Where should I put my face?Push me over with your life!
"kill!"
Suddenly a thunderous roar rang in his ears, and Randolph, who was sitting on the back of the warg, shook his legs in fright, and quickly grabbed the rein; the angry Randolph turned his head suddenly, wanting to see who was so boldly frightened He, thus, he saw an extremely terrifying scene——
The mountains on both sides of this valley are not big mountains, but they are very steep, and there are almost no tall plants on the slopes.It is true that the kind of valley with lush forests will not be chosen as a road by people - because there will be many fierce beasts, and if you are unlucky, you may encounter monsters and monsters.
Looking at the ordinary thorns, bushes, and bushes, suddenly hundreds of soldiers in armor and holding big sabers jumped out. These people were wrapped in vines, and some of the hats woven from leaves on their heads didn't have time to take off. At first glance, it looked like a moving bush; the person who jumped out first did not hold a knife, but his hands were shining with dazzling pure fighting spirit—it was the third-tier fighter who led the team in an ambush in the middle, and the mascot of the People's Army Commander Xier Figgs!
——To make matters worse, their ambush was too close, and when they jumped out, they were almost close to the edge of the cavalry, and they could touch the horse's body with a single stroke of the saber!
