Mercenaries Under the Sky

Vol 4 Chapter 67: Martyrdom of Wase

Name: Chang Qing

Gender: Male Race: Human Title: Flame Demon King Black-faced Dragon King Chi Aotian's Eight Blades Sixth.

The acting captain of the Little Mercenary Regiment Swordsman Battalion, in the literal sense of the name, this soldier will undoubtedly be loved by most of his bosses. Chang Qing ... There is only a chance to celebrate after winning.

According to uncertain news, when Chang Qing joined the small mercenary regiment, he was once selected to the magic swordsman battalion. However, because the number of magic elves in the body was too scarce, only three days, he had to withdraw and join the vulture Swordsman camp.

Maybe it was because I once wanted to become a fire magician, or maybe because of the hatred of the Holy See. In short, after the First World War in Gifu City, His Excellency Chang Qing was very enthusiastic about setting fire, especially after every war, especially When it was necessary to slaughter the city, His Excellency Chang Qing once carried the spontaneous combustion powder of the whole sack and fell from the sky into a bag.

In terms of the number of killings rather than the enemy, no one in the entire Beizheng Army dared to challenge His Excellency Chang Qing.

So many years later, no one could believe that this bloody-faced Grand Duke was once a teenager who talked and laughed like the head of the small mercenary regiment Amy.

--"nice! "Black Face Dragon King Eight Blades" Chapter 67 Wakasa Martyrdom Suddenly hit, a third of the families in Saka Town lost their loved ones, and under the iron hand of the conquerors, all the residents lost their confidence to resist! Even, there is no idea of ​​running away-no matter how fast a person's legs, no matter how many legs a horse has, can it be comparable to the sky vulture? Moreover, there are legendary Eudemons Knights. On the large meadow, even a sheep can't hide, let alone a Tibetan.

Fortunately, after all, the enemy is a regular knightly army. Most of the enemies did not even enter the town, and settled in the camp directly outside the town. If it is a horse thief ... it is estimated that not many women in the town will survive.

The only two blacksmith shops in the town suddenly became the most expensive places. All the residents removed all the ironware in the house. Even the big iron clock in the town center and the small iron nails that had been nailed into the wall were all sent to the blacksmith. Laying back into the furnace, four blacksmiths instructed the townspeople to turn around and build arrow tips day and night. The chickens, ducks and geese in the residents' homes were devastated. They were all killed in the night. Most countries are indeed using the largest flying feathers on poultry wings to process horn bows.

The requirements of the strong crossbow are much higher, Tiemu-only rich and wealthy people have it, and most of them are large pieces of furniture, at this time they can only be disassembled ...

In the town of Saka, except for children who are not sensible, almost everyone stayed for three days and three nights, and until the fourth morning, all arrows were put on the town square.

It was the previous wave of black knights. The huge dragon trotters crushed the bluestone pavement of the town again. The same vulture knights also covered the roof of the house. Under the sun, the black sword and silver arrow dazzled. Light. Obviously, the knights still maintain the necessary vigilance for this conquered town.

More than a dozen light knights turned over and dismounted, pulling the strong men and women one by one, and then spot-checked a few bags of grain and soy feed. There was really no problem. The blue-ling knight above him ordered the middle-aged labor to move all the food to the cart.

When checking the bow, there was a problem. The strong crossbow only provided more than 890. All the iron and wood in the town were demolished, and 1000 strong crossbows could not be made. However, the acting mayor of the town is obviously much smarter than his predecessor. , Shaking hands presented a burden: "Adult, we don't have so much wood here, this is 32,000 gold coins, it is the savings of all the residents in our town, can you please convert it into a strong crossbow?"

The skull mask knight pondered for a moment, waved his whip, rolled up his burden, and threw it to the knight behind him: "Okay! Two strong crossbows, equivalent to one strong labor, then 50 strong labor and 100 horses, follow the army!"

"Yes, yes, yes." The acting mayor agreed without a word, and the hard labor would not necessarily die, but if he refused to surrender, maybe ... he would really be slaughtered in the town ... everyone would count .

"After we leave, no more troops can be accepted here! Every other month, each household must provide 200 pounds of food and 200 pounds of horse beans. We will send a special person to take back and must meet the requirements. Otherwise ... "The Skeleton Mask Knight then stared fiercely at more than 300 powerful workers:" If any of you dare to rebel, be decisive! And all the krypton knights will return here overnight! This town will become the second Gifu City! "

Gifu City? Residents at this time do not yet know what happened to Gifu City, and listening to this tone can only make Gifu City ask for more blessings. The threat of nakedness threatened most people's nervous system. Until this time, the threat of the Black Dragon Knights came directly and effectively. No one dared to have any offense.

The acting mayor Wei Wei Nuo nodded, not daring to complain.

"Go!" Like a whirlwind, the black iron rider screamed out of the town with the strong labor force encircling the army and thrust into the northeast. Saka Town has become one of the few towns that have been preserved during the Black Dragon Knights' solicitation process. However, there have been more than eighty tombs standing outside the town overnight suggesting that there has been a war here.

It is not an exaggeration that such words fall on Chi Aotian at this time. At this time, Chi Aotian was extremely worried that the three brigades of the Xueyue Regiment would be calculated by the Holy See. However, the older generation of northern federal soldiers such as Elon, Barbas and Moye usually left the impression of Chi Aotian. It seems that it is really difficult to ambush this army that is in a state of combat readiness all the year round, otherwise there will be no praise like "Snow Moon is not more than a thousand, and more than a thousand is invincible". With the pitiful combat power of the Holy Veterans, it takes at least 100,000 people under the command of a famous coach to have a hopeful victory. Even if the Fanos army completes such ambushes, there are no large-scale 30,000 or 50,000 troops interspersed in this area. On this endless prairie, trying to trap the Xueyue Army and then wipe it out in one fell swoop, it is really unimaginable. Considering that the total strength of the two strategic clusters of Fanos is only more than 200,000, and it has to defend many strategic points and suppress the resistance of residents everywhere. It is definitely not an easy task to draw so many troops at one time. . How is the situation? Such doubts always floated in Chi Aotian's mind. The military department must have sent a flight messenger to the notice, and Uncle Barbas rushed to the east coast to "borrow troops" a month ago. If it is really like Horns said, the 10,000 snow moon army has formed a horn. , Be able to echo each other, will definitely increase the difficulty of the enemy to start. Perhaps ... now the Xueyue Army is making trouble on the east coast, Chi Aotian has to comfort himself like this.

Even if he is in a hurry, Chi Aotian must suppress his nervous nerves and control the distance of the march every day to 120 miles-this is more than double the standard march distance. Thousands of soldiers went alone, like a snow leopard plunging into a pack of wolves. The most taboo is three points. First, they were blocked in a small area; second, the huge casualties were a huge victory, and many injured soldiers will Become a deadly burden on the army; third, the transitional fatigue makes the army inelastic. For the Northern Expeditionary Army dominated by the Black Dragon Knights, it is not difficult to advance 300 miles day and night, but after such a rapid march to the strategic destination, even the swordsman battalion may not be able to overcome. If you maintain such a speed, march for three consecutive times. God, it is not to go to war, but to send prisoners of war to the enemy.

Under the tremendous nerve pressure, Chi Aotian's mouth began to burst into flames. The doctor of the army prescribed several detoxification pills to the young general in succession, and it didn't work at all. From the death of Chi Hanfeng to the present, Chi Aotian has fallen into madness and can't fall asleep until the middle of the night. Only after serious internal injuries outside the city of Gifu, only two seemingly stable sleeps fell asleep.

Fortunately, the team of officers assigned by His Excellency Chi Changyun is extremely perfect. During the march and camping, most of the work is basically the same with the second master of the Chi family and the second master without the Chi family.

In this way, before arriving in Delhi, the Black Dragon Knights swept through the six towns in one breath. The overwhelming vulture knights did not hesitate to storm everyone's nerves. The four towns The sense of honor of guarding the mercenary regiment and swordsman battalion quickly turned into a bubble, and it was extremely wise to choose to surrender out of the city.

The last and closest town to Delhi is the only victim-Waseda Town has more than 1,000 swordsmen, and the town is only 30 miles away from the southern city of Delhi, which is only 30 miles away. To. The town's swordsman battalion commander Munch had a little confidence in Delhi's reinforcements and gave the town a "scrap" seal.

The city guards of Delhi. Qi had already received an eight hundred-mile emergency report from Ulu. Two bishops, six middle-level priests, and more than thirty junior priests in the city reported to the city gate every day. To strengthen the city walls and train soldiers. The city of Delhi is big and small, 24,000 households, a population of 98,000, a standing swordsman battalion of 3,000, a large and small mercenary corps of 3,400 people, plus from the hinterland of Huayu Plain The temporary recruits have reached 9,000 troops. If you did not see the detailed battle report of the massacre in Gifu City, it is true that His Excellency Hughes could go to rescue Wazao Town.

Poor Wadao Swordsman Battalion Commander, as long as his level is one level higher, then he will get updated information three days ago, it is not difficult to get this judgment. It is a pity that history cannot withstand the assumptions.

Lord Monk, who was loyal to his duties, gathered all the soldiers and mercenaries in a very short time. The middle-aged men in the town were gathered together and rushed to the town wall with a short knife that was only needed for herding. 2800VS6000, such a number flashed in the mind of Sir Monk. In theory, this is really not a difficult problem. In the history of the Eminor continent, two or three thousand weak brigades died in a small town and successfully suppressed 10,000 or 20,000 enemy troops. There are too many such examples. The most exaggerated figure is that it has been keeping a small town for 35 days. Sir Monk did not expect to break this record with his long sword, but the confidence was still absolutely sufficient.

This time it was Baron Qu Jianhong ’s turn to give a speech. His Excellency the Baron led his huge dragon beast and stood at a distance of 50 meters from the town and shouted loudly. In fact, it was all non-nutritive words. Since ancient times, persuasion was the only effective The solution is to overwhelm all strength.

It is a pity that the audience in front of them obviously did not comply with the most basic requirements for listening to speeches-the first did not buy a ticket, the second was armed, and the third, some people were excited to throw out sharp iron chopsticks instead of beautiful rose.

Thorns, thorns, thorns ... Hundreds of swordsmen opposite Baron Qu Jianhong simultaneously loosened the bowstrings in their hands. The brown arrow points across the cast steel plate armor. Moaning severely tortured the ears of the knights-the horn bow. For the super heavy knight such as the earth dragon, the damage it can bring is nothing more than that. The dragon beast is wearing a 1 cm thick dragon armor, and the knight is completely "embedded" in the 3 cm thick plate armor. Even the eye area is designed with protection. Unless it is the best long archer, there is no suspense.

However, even with this, Qu Jianhong was still scared. The dense plumes of arrows caused a great impact on the body. There were even a few arrows being shot on the iron mask. The face was painful, and the ground dragon was felt immediately. Obviously impatient, he lowered his head and found that two arrows pierced the dragon beast along the armor leaf, and should be nailed to the dragon's scale armor. There was already blood slowly flowing out of the armor slit.

The face behind the mask of the captain of the captain turned red, and I just joke with a few colleagues that the enemy will be scared to surrender. Now, behind him is the 2000 subordinates under his direct control, so the shameful thing happened to him. On yourself. There was an angry roar under the dragon knight's mask. The heavy war hammer one and a half meters long was lifted high, and the huge ground dragon rushed up against the arrow rain.

"Shoo! Shoot him! He can't come up--" Sir Munch's prediction came to a halt, and a layer of white light suddenly appeared at the foot of the Steel Knight Fortress under the town wall. The huge dragon beast suddenly rushed up the wall, The 46-pound Warhammer ended the honorary career of this low-ranking nobleman. Sir Munk ’s head was lost by the volley, and his body stood for a moment and collapsed.

Qu Jianhong didn't pause at all. Like a tiger rushing into the flock, the warhammer screamed in his hand, dozens of lances and short swords were put into the kite, and the dragon was sharply brown before catching along the narrow town wall. When the destruction continued, the horseskin chain armor standard equipped by the swordsmen shattered like a piece of paper, and human limbs were scattered with screams. The soldiers behind were pale and unable to dodge. Quite a large number of people jumped from the three-meter-high wall, and some even jumped outside the town.

"Chongmen!" Qu Jianhong's immediate staff rushed up with two or three low-level Eudemons knights, followed by more than 400 vulture archers, and the white boys kept on the dancing vultures. Shot more than ten rounds of arrows, and there were no defensive soldiers standing near the gate of the town. The flying knights landed and immediately opened the gate. More than 500 ground-dragon knights who had rushed to the gate laughed and split into two teams, sweeping down the wall-even the sword battalion of the Xueyue Legion could not compete with the steel-dragon knights Not to mention the pathetic power of the Holy See. According to the established password, the ground dragon knight who suppresses the rebels has no desire to leave a live mouth, regardless of whether he has laid down his weapons, as long as he is a soldier and a mercenary attire, he will be killed without amnesty, and the body of the swordsman is constantly being removed from the hammer Shot out of the wall.

Chi Aotian, who was watching a wonderful performance in the distance, simply said a word to the captain of the Cavaliers: "Resistant, armed, hostile, kill!"

The captain of the Cavaliers commanded his heart and brought a trainee knight from the squadron into the town. Starting along the gate, a group of knights came together to clear the resistance one by one.

Everything went smoothly like a military exercise. Two long knight guns opened the door and three long swords broke in at the same time. When meeting any rebels, the long knight gun was pierced from the waist and the thin knight sword pierced the chest directly. ... It doesn't even take five minutes to solve a hut.

In just half an hour, the last survivor in the town was driven to the square in the center of the town by the **** conqueror. In the bleak north wind, there were continuous cries of cries among the survivors. It is impossible to not cry. The residents of the Holy See have found that only hundreds of poor people stand on the huge square. What is even more chilling is that None of them are strong men ...

"Lord General!" A **** trainee knight drove the mount out of the town: "Lord General, we found a priest in the town."

The young boy's meticulous black eyebrow beating gently: "Execution."

"But ..." the apprentice knight hesitated: "General, he said he must see you."

Oh? Several officers behind Chi Aotian were surprised, could they not be assassins? With the vileness of the Holy See, such a thing is not impossible.

"Okay, let's see." There was no expression on the fair face.

The crisp horseshoe kicked and stepped on the blue stone street. Under the star-like arch of many middle and senior military officers, a black man with a beautiful appearance to the handsome level gracefully moved the black horse and slowly came. To the town of Wase.

Not a master: Some readers have raised questions about whether a small town can complete the task of "24,000 horned bows and 1,000 crossbows" in three days ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ This task is not as complicated as imagined. Prior to Tongyunguan, it was specifically mentioned that the horn bow is the lowest standard bow and arrow, and the requirements for the arrow feathers are much lower than the high-end bows such as cross bows and long bows. Therefore, the requirements for material selection are very low. Can be made on the spot.

Secondly, there are at least 1500 people of suitable age in the town who can process simple arrow feathers, with 24,000 points to 1500 people. Each person only needs to build five or six arrows per day.

Some readers compared the task of 24,000 with the difficulty of borrowing 100,000 arrows from the straw boat in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In fact, one of the most basic points is ignored here. How many people will be engaged in manufacturing in an army during the Three Kingdoms period? Will there be one in 10 people? Certainly not. Will there be one in 100 people? Suppose there is. In the Chibi match, Sun Liu Lianjun was only 30,000, that is, only 300 craftsmen made arrows, 100,000 arrows were made in three days, and each person was divided into more than 100 people per day. This difficulty is incomparable.

In addition, in the real battle, the consumption of arrows and feathers is quite high. Skilled English archers have a rate of fire of 8 to 10 per minute. 2000 archers consume one hundred and two hundred thousand or more in a battle. Arrow Feather is a common thing.

Several readers were also surprised to provide figures of war horses and preserved meat, which were also obtained by saying that some information should not be consulted. In the grasslands, a family of horses is usually counted as ten horses. During the Mongolian army journey, each soldier is equipped with four more horses, and the meat is not difficult. A sheep produces at least 50 pounds of meat. In other words, if the number of sheep raising in each family is lower than 10, then it must be living in dire straits. In snow disasters, the number of animals killed by freezing in an area is often hundreds of thousands to millions. About the number of livestock raised in pastoral areas, we can know a little or two.
