King’s Kingdom - Chapter 297
The driver who was kneeling on the ground looked at the tall man with a ferocious expression in front of him, his face was full of fear, his whole body was shaking, and he couldn’t even say a complete sentence.
“Silda…come…go to Punta…”
“You came from Syldarburg to deliver food to that place called Punta Castle, right?”
“Yes, it is!”
“Where is Fort Punta? Don’t be afraid, I was invited by the King of Lanyin to participate in this war. He is a benevolent monarch. As long as you tell me everything truthfully, I will not hurt you, understand. Is it?”
The driver nodded hurriedly, took a deep breath, and calmed down. Although he still stuttered, he was more logical.
“Punta Castle… It’s about nine kilometers away from here. It’s a castle made of stone. We are all natives of Selda Castle. Because we can drive, we were mobilized by the Count to transport food to Punta. Tower Castle…”
“Which of your counts belongs to Fort Punta and Fort Selda?” The bearded man seemed to have some knowledge, and the questions he asked were all very important military intelligence.
“Yes, it is……”
The bearded man narrowed his eyes slightly. He was also a man who used to ride on the battlefield. Although he failed to reach the level of a regular army after all, he still had some experience in interrogating intelligence. Besides, if this kind of intelligence is true, it will definitely be given to him. Bringing a lot of wealth, he couldn’t help but care.
“I see… the size of the Punta Castle… Forget it, you don’t know if you ask.” The bearded man shook his head helplessly. It was impossible for the coachman to see the scale of many castles. How could he know the Punta Fort? Big or small.
“Then let me ask you, how many garrison troops are in Sylda Fort? As far as you know, have any troops left Sylda Fort? Are the local lords still there?”
“He’s gone, Lord Count, he took hundreds of King Punta Castles who were soldiers. We transported food to give them food!”
The morning of June 24, 869 in the Hilkati calendar.
Today’s sky is very good and very clear, but the sun’s rays do not directly shine on the ground. The clouds are like natural parasols, blocking a little of the sun’s divine power, bringing coolness to the soldiers who are marching.
The weather is perfect for the birds, which are constantly circling the evacuation, catching insects to feed their newborn pups.
However, this tranquility was broken in the next second. The sound of a person walking alone was nothing, and it was difficult to attract any attention in nature.
However, when more than 70,000 people were walking at the same time, with a large number of mules, horses, donkeys, and heavy materials heading in the same direction, there seemed to be only one voice left between heaven and earth.
This sound is not as deafening as when the iron cavalry charges, but is composed of a variety of tiny sounds. Small water droplets and streams do not have much power, and only one person can change the flow direction, but when these streams are Converging into a big river and sea, the sweeping prestige will shock everyone.
This is the case for this marching team. Everyone’s voice is just stepping on the ground, opening the lid of the kettle, coughing softly, breathing slightly, and the sound of clothes rubbing against each other, but when they gather together, they form a huge noise. , disturbed the birds and beasts of the forest.
Under such power, even the king of raptors, Bai Ying, withdrew to his lair, waiting for the terrifying monster to leave. In the sparse forest, the ferocious wild beasts also retreated and did not dare to show their bodies.
Theodosius raised his head and glanced at the sky. At this time, the sun was completely blocked by the clouds. Only at this time could he look directly at the **** who commands all things above.
After judging the time, Theodosius gave an order, followed by the horseback of the messengers, and the entire team stopped completely after fifteen minutes.
Once the army gets bigger, it becomes very difficult to implement the order, because it takes a lot of time to convey it. This is especially true for such a long procession. Because of the formation of a phalanx during combat, So it is much less difficult to convey an order.
It may only take five minutes to transmit a message on the frontal battlefield, but it takes fifteen minutes under this kind of marching force, which is also the reason why people are most afraid of sneak attacks when marching.
As long as the enemy is attacked, the enemy cannot carry out the orders from the beginning and the end to every corner, and it is easy to cause misjudgments due to the lack of information flow, which will cause a devastating blow to morale.
The soldiers sat on the spot and began to rest, because now there are only eight kilometers left from Fort Andonia, the goal of this march, and it will only take a few hours to arrive. Now they must save some physical strength to prevent accidents.
The warriors ate the cold porridge and meat that had been prepared before, with cheese and water. Theodosius wanted to provide them with high-calorie food to quickly restore their physical strength, but unfortunately this was quite difficult in this era.
Even with fast-acting carbs that work faster, he couldn’t prepare the soldiers for it. He could only make them eat the slower-acting saltwater compounds like soy and wheat.
Fast carbon food is quite difficult to store and carry. Flour is turned into bread, which needs to be made by baking~www.mtlnovel.com~ It is quite time-consuming. Where can the marching team race against time to eat it.
So you can only eat beans and husked wheat that are easy to carry and cook. If there are foods like compressed biscuits and chocolate, let alone these, even if you can eat a little sugar, the progress of the march will definitely be much faster than now. .
Of course, if there was any sugar, Theodosius would have to sell it for the money…
After almost eating, Theodosius ordered the army to continue to advance, but the advancing formation was no longer the snake formation before, but a slightly looser square formation, slowly heading towards Andoni Yabao is on the move, after all, it is close to the goal of this time, it is better to be cautious.
The distance of eight kilometers is really not that close, but it is definitely not far. After walking for about two hours, the army has already seen the outline of Fort Andonia.
“What the **** is this weather, it hasn’t rained for a month, it’s killing me!”
On the wall of Fort Andonia, a guard sighed, with dissatisfaction in his tone, and glanced casually into the distance.
At this glance, he was so shocked that he almost dropped his eyeballs. The black sea of people was almost endless, with chills and dust all over the sky, like a falling mountain range, rolling towards Fort Andonia. Come.
“My God! The gods are above! The gods are above!”
“Look! Look! That…!”
He hurriedly reached out and grabbed the arm of the companion next to him, and even grabbed the flesh under his clothes, causing the other party to scream in pain.
