Mercenaries Under the Sky

Chapter 84

After abandoning the jungle knight, Chi Aotian's expeditionary force did not stop at all, plunged into the depths of the boundary forest along the mainland road, and entered the forced march again. At 2 p.m. on the fifth day, the width was 250 More than a kilometer of Jielin Forest was left behind.

At this time, the black-faced dragon king was still too young. This time, the fierce martial arts had a little taste of fleeing. He did not need to do this at all, and then lent two courage to the head of the jungle knight, Joseph also Dare not to attack the expeditionary force.

What a joke, a few months ago, the 600,000 troops of the Norton cluster were ready to attack Jielin. At that time, Jielin knew that the best result was just a broken fish net; a few months later, Chi Aotian's 20,000 expedition defeated the same branch of Norton. force. The gap between Jielin and Chi Aotian's expeditionary forces is clear at a glance.

At first, the jungle knights thought that there must be moisture in it, and after seeing the expeditionary forces-after more than a year of continuous baptism of war, the expeditionary army of the arrogant soldiers were all murderous, and they had not started fighting Eyes bleeding through the bloodline ... Rare death-killing let the jungle knights rise from the spinal cord to the top of the forehead and drown the feet.

In addition, Chi Aotian was holding several vital lines in the emperor's home and abroad alone, and now these lines are all held by the heavy soldiers; the expeditionary army has returned with honor, in the hearts of the people who are still loyal to the empire, Chi Aotian's long march annihilated more than a million enemies and made outstanding achievements. But after getting off the battlefield, he was given a pot of war by Jielin Theater? It is estimated that the Tumo star of the domestic people can drown the jungle knights.

It can only be said that unfortunately Tayang is gone ...

"The deputy commander has already contacted the army of the head commander." Chang Qing jumped off the vulture happily, followed by a handsome elf girl-this was obviously a scout sent by Amy. In the former expeditionary army, the term deputy commander was not very easy to say. Now, when the head of the regiment reaches one acre and three points, the members of the small mercenary regiment almost deliberately emphasized this title.

For the small mercenary regiment, no matter how much credit is given by the deputy commander Chi Aotian, the weight cannot exceed that of the creator of the small mercenary regiment, Amy and Daqingshan.

Chi Aotian rarely smiled on his face: "Oh, how many days can I see them?"

"I can see the deputy head of Horns this afternoon, and the head will be the day after tomorrow. By the way," Chang Qing then threw another explosive news: "Not long ago, Hones took more than 1,000 brothers responsible for food In the wilderness, the 30,000 troops such as Mora and Merlin in the Western Army of Fanos were intercepted for 15 days, killing more than 10,000 enemies. "

All the officers of the four systems of the Expeditionary Army Black Dragon Knights, Allied Forces, Desert Empire, and Northern Federation are counted as one. Upon hearing such news, their faces are shocked.

The expeditionary army's offensive and defensive battle in Fangang City, with 20,000 to 600,000, the strength difference is 1: 3000. But in fact, this is just a statement. After all, the other side of the Baili joint camp is controlled by the huge army of the desert empire, and there is also the strong wall of the Vatican City. This is not a concept of intercepting 30,000 with 1,000 in the wilderness. Even if there are two or three dragon knights responding in the air, the officers of the expeditionary force can't think of any way to do it on the plains.

"True and false? Could it be that the Fanos soldiers are not satisfied with the soil, and the collective is having a stomachache?" Qu Jianhong whispered on the side-at the time of passing through the cloud, Qu Jianhong was like most regular military officers, right The mercenary's combat power was dismissive. There is a Chi Aotian who is already alien. Coupled with Amy and the legendary Daqing Mountain, why is there now a deputy head of Horns. If the mercenaries are so arrogant, what do the regular army do?

Chang Qing had sharp ears and glared Qu Jianhong fiercely, then pushed the elf girl behind him: "I knew someone always thought he was a regular army, how to cow, just don't believe that mercenaries can win the battle, this No, I brought witnesses specially. The second battalion of the second battalion of the vulture elf archer of the Little Mercenary Corps, Wu Changlin, she participated in the war all the way. "

The second battalion of the wild eagle elf archer, as the name implies: After the **** night of the imperial capital, Qingluo led the wild eagle elf archer battalion to follow Chi Aotian on the expedition to Huayu Plain. Before the **** night of the imperial capital, the small mercenary regiment's big and small owners, including the raging eggs and the few vultures, were all moved to Hamburg. When Amy decided to abandon the burger, there were more than a hundred little vultures to ride on. Based on these vultures, Amy built the vulture swordsman battalion and the vulture elf archer battalion.

Hornes learned that Commander Merlin's army had rushed for a long distance, and he had to send the knight eagle on his hand to the Great Castle for help. Daqingshan was ambushing on the road that General Lebarton must pass to rescue Hanyang. He had been lurking for several days. He was at the knuckles. If he went back to rescue immediately, could he catch up in time, maybe he would be bitten by Rebarton. Upper tail. Under desperation, Daqingshan ordered all the krypton knights and Eudemons knights to return to assist Hornes. Daqingshan made it very clear: as long as they can contain the enemy for five or six days, Rebaton will definitely rest assured to reinforce Hanyang and fight. After Lebaton, the whole army immediately returned.

In the fall of March 6th of the magic calendar, when Merlin's army front reached the checkpoint of the small mercenary regiment, Hornes' overall combat power was close to 2000.

Using these precious two days, Horns did a thing that allowed him to step into the top star of the war of gods in one fell swoop-the magic calendar autumn March 1 night, less than 9 hours, Horns was in Sanggan A strong castle was built on the Hebei shore! In history, this famous city is called Caocheng.

The water skin on both sides of the Sanggan River is very submerged, digging one meter down, the pit begins to gush. According to this feature, Horns first drenched the water with dry horse grass and piled up a wall three meters high and four meters wide.

Just then, Horns found the scroll sent by Dragon Realm.

Among the Dragon Scrolls, fire and ice magic are the most likely to appear-after all, the old green dragon is the ice sacred dragon, and the green dragon is the ice dragon, and the ice dragon is also expensive to fend up. Quite a lot of thoughts. Fire magic was given to Chi Aotian by Amy. Most of the ice magic was lying in the tent honestly.

Seeing these ice magic scrolls, half magic blind Horns decided to build an ice city on the basis of straw. The method is actually very simple, first water the straw, then cast the ice attack magic on the straw wall, and freeze the straw with the water, then water the straw ice shell, and then use the magic scroll to reinforce it until the straw wall The straw is not visible to the outside.

When the sun rises on March 2, an oval wall rises on the ground, the wall is five meters high, and the circumference is 800 meters. The southern side of Caocheng is a drainage ditch of the mainland highway, and the other three sides have been dug 1.5 meters deep The 5-meter-wide moat has not only water, but also large and small pebbles pushed from the Sanggan River. These pebbles have been soaked in the Sanggan River for hundreds of years, covered with moss, and pushed to the moat After going inside, the feet slipped. The moat is only 2 meters away from Caocheng, which fully limits the overshoot of horses and other horses.

Seeing that the Merlin Army did not come, Horns dug a shallow ditch 40 centimeters deep in the grass city. The shallow ditch was covered with straw, and a circle of ice grass walls was built in the shallow ditch. There were 30 degrees between the two walls. Distance of several meters.

When Merlin and Mora saw the Caocheng, the eyes of the two orc officers were straight! The Eudemons Knight was sent to patrol the day before. This is just a big camp. Why did a city appear here just one day?

In the battle report, the main force of the small mercenary group led by Amy is still in this newly established city, with a total of about 10,000. Compared with the battle of the ice break port launched by Merlin, this game should not be difficult to fight.

It's a pity that the Fanosi Western Front troops were heavily palpable on iron bumps.

Horns deliberately built Caocheng on the northern side of the mainland highway, so that the southern side of Caocheng was a continental highway drainage ditch with an average of five meters deep and six meters wide. By comparison, the north side of Caocheng was more prone to attack. Merlin also chose to siege from the north of Caocheng. It was true that this matter was pondered, and it was only when the attack was real that the problem was found-the attack from north to south, just facing the sun.

The power of the sun is sometimes not comparable to that of a thousand or two thousand men. The Centaur archer responsible for the cover is dazzled by the sun, and the elf archer in the grass city shoots the arrow feathers like rain drops. . After dropping nearly a thousand bodies in the first round of the offensive, it was just disintegrated.

Merlin had to readjust the main battlefield to the northwest side of Caocheng, and used the centaur archer to suppress the elven archer on the city wall behind the crater. To the Sanggan River, the Fanosi Western Front Corps did not expect to fight the siege, most of the siege equipment was thrown on the road, and now it can only rely on more than a dozen of the simplest ladders to rush up the city.

Unfortunately, Horns didn't even want to fight face-to-face-the inside of Caocheng had already bundled tens of thousands of torches. Horns wanted to open his mind, but before he was defeated, he had to set fire to burn down all kinds of food and other materials. Instead of crying and burning in the back, it is better to burn and smile in the front.

The grass fell from the raindrops on the city wall, then the fire dropped the raindrops, and then the pockets of quicklime were walked into the moat two meters away. The quicklime fell in the water, and the moat suddenly opened the pot ... light The infantry was better and ran fast, nearly half of them fled back. The heavy infantry of a thousand-man squadron was completely annihilated by the army. Some of them were burned to death by the fire. More heavy infantry were slipped by the pebbles in the moat and burned to death by boiling water.

Fanos continent is most particular about good men with hair and good women with fat, especially bears. The result of the second siege is even more tragic! Hundreds of bearmen fell into the moat, which was only 1.5 meters deep. The animal tendons of the armor were corroded by lime water, exposing the body. All the black body hairs from the head to the feet were washed away by the boiling water, white and tender Nen, looking far away, like a fat pancreas woman bathing in the river during the magical revival ...

Eyes of senior Fanos officers such as Merlin and Mora were red. This battle fought this injustice, two charges, the direct war dead was close to 2000, and even the enemy did not see a single hair. What makes Merlin's head even bigger is that this mean defense method turns this small castle with a diameter of less than 200 meters into a fire hedgehog. Even if you attack the city from all directions at the same time, the enemy is easy to defend.

In this case, Merlin had to stop the siege, and it was not in a hurry to mobilize the siege equipment from the nearby Sanggan River theater city. In the art of war, defending the city has only one purpose, which is to wait for reinforcements. If you are only defending an isolated city, there is no reason not to be captured.

According to information provided by Merlin to the Sanggan River theater, the main force of the Amy Legion was trapped; General Rebaton immediately mobilized 10,000 main troops to counterattack Hanyang City-no one can tolerate such a big nail in his stomach.

After receiving a large amount of siege equipment, the Fanosi Western Front Corps finally attacked Caocheng, the first wall, on the sixth day at the painful cost of 5,000 soldiers killed. This was still given by Horns. On this wall, the 2,000 people who died in Horns ’s army had more than one-third of the Fanos soldiers of the thousands of people rushed to the first wall. The commander immediately decided to strike the second wall while he was still hot. Just hitting the iron while it was hot, he gave Horns a luxurious gift.

The Fanos soldiers had just rushed under the inner city wall, and the mercenaries on the inner city wall threw down torches like raindrops, fired rockets toward the outer wall, and wolf dung.

A circle of straw was piled separately on the inner side of the outer wall of Caocheng, and the shallow pit between the inner and outer walls was covered with straw. The torches and wolf dung were thrown down, and the fire burst into flames. The flame melted the ice layer on the city wall, and the water droplets were roasted into water vapor during the fall. This fire burned for an hour and was finally extinguished by the ice water flowing from the outer city wall-at least 3000 Fanos The soldiers were burned, burned, and suffocated between the two walls.

Horns commanded the mercenaries and then snatched back the outer wall.

In this way, with the 2000 mercenaries and the grass city he built overnight, Horns dragged Merlin ’s 30,000 troops to the spot for a full 15 days. The small mercenary regiment killed more than 1,300 mercenaries; the Western Front Corps, commanded by Merlin, died. More than 9000.

Fifteen days later, Merlin quit the war on his own initiative, and he had to retreat.

In these 15 days, Daqingshan solved the reinforcements sent by General Rebarton-the newly recovered Dragon Knight Dark Qiusheng led the small mercenary group to block the swordsman battalion in advance to lie in advance where Rebarton reinforcements may be stationed ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ In the middle of the night, the Chinese troops of the three reinforcements were raided. No one expected that the attack would come from the hinterland. The captain of the Sanggan River heavy infantry brigade and other important officers were killed and injured. The other two brigades of the reinforcements were not Lebaton's heirs. Under the coercion of blocking the swordsman battalion, the two brigades chose to surrender.

Then, Daqingshan had a quick eye, and one day and one night, using the two surrendered Sanggan River teams to defraud two cities of Mianyang and Heyang. Then, Daqingshan took the dragon knight rate of three small mercenary groups. 10,000 troops drove down to defend the city of Dangyang.

So far, counting from south to north, the four cities of Hanyang, Heyang, Mianyang, and Dangyang are connected together, like a sharp blade to cut off the Sanggan River theater.

After the confluence of Daqingshan and Amy, all the regular troops in the four cities were drawn out, and together with the small mercenary regiment, 20,000 troops were formed, and they quickly returned to the division to rescue Hornes.

Merlin has self-knowledge. In the previous few battles with the small mercenary group, Fanos has an overwhelming advantage in strength, and the result is comparable to salt-free ... In the case of 1: 1 strength, it is not Merlin who has the confidence to eat The problem with the small mercenary group.

In addition, Merlin ’s current unit is Fanos ’s largest mobile unit in the Amy Empire. If it is consumed here with the small mercenary group ... Once the Jielin Theater and the Northwestern Theater hit the Gyeonggi region, it is estimated that except With the advantage of the city's high river and wide breadth, Cambrai can protect himself, and all other towns and towns will return to the Amy Empire in various ways. If this is the case, it will be a fatal blow to the forces of Emperor Burma.

Merlin evacuated 60 miles to the north, relying on several small towns to lay the line of defense. There was once again a short period of "peace" in the Sanggan River theater.
