Mercenaries Under the Sky - v5 Chapter 49

Marshal of the Empire to Baochi Datong heard the rebuke Hou reported “all the enemies have been evacuated on both sides of the boundary forest”, and stayed in the tea cup for a full minute. At the same time, Lei Ge, the chief magician of the Empire sitting on the side, opened his mouth wide, and he didn’t even notice the magic wand that fell beside him.

Has the enemy withdrawn completely?

How can this happen?

Even if one step back 10,000 steps, even if the Jielin War Zone never brought any unnecessary trouble to the Xidijun Group, hundreds of thousands of troops that had been assembled for nearly a month could not be said to withdraw.

It is very, very difficult for the imperial army in the heyday to gather these three or five hundred thousand troops together and form an attack situation. Needless to say, in terms of food, thirty Wan Dajun must equip at least half of the civilians, nearly half a million people, the horses and animals used are calculated at one hundred thousand, no need to go to many miles, and at least three months will consume the food accumulated by the Holy Church for one year; The camp set up a camp. The camp of more than 100 miles used more than 400,000 pieces of hardwood with a thick bowl; in order to prevent the Jielin war zone from merging south and the Tongyunguan war zone, this month, the people and the people excavated The trenches are more than three hundred miles long, and three trenches with a depth of two feet and a width of three feet have been dug in the south.

In such a large-scale war, the gold coins consumed by a fight can fill up the camps of the warring parties densely and wealthy. According to the experience of His Excellency Marshal Chi Datong, the Western Emperor’s party had previously consumed at least 15 million funds.

For the Imperial Army, once such power is accumulated, even if the sky collapses, the war must be completed first. How can the enemy retreat now?

In fact, the enemy troops who had fought back in front of Jielin and Tiemajingo and Yaowuyangwei did disappear like this yesterday. Not only did it disappear, but the camps, which lasted for dozens of miles, did not have time to be completely dismantled. Various military materials controlled by the state, such as arrow tips, gun handles with thick goose eggs, wooden stakes, etc., were thrown everywhere.

“They … don’t … but is it time?” General Jie Lin Lord Nord murmured low on the side.

“Master General, I heard several bards sing a few days ago, and a master named China Yang discovered another extremely great magic, which seems to be called” overhead history “. It is said that it is more powerful than China Yang. The powerful archmage can teleport back a city and an army. You said, is there any possibility that these Fanos soldiers will be teleported to the war before they will be here to raid us? ” The eyes of the young staff assigned from the Cavaliers School suddenly lit up, shining with infinite wisdom.

Nord shook his head helplessly, then smiled at the small staff: “Well, I heard that in addition to singing, being innocently executed is also one of the ways to return to the highest success rate in the past, so, if I let you go back Have a look, then come back and report it? “

The officers in the big tent laughed loudly. Such a young man … really his grandma is rich in such illusions.

“Sir Marshal, did General Amy go south and have already achieved significant results in the Sanggan River theater, forcing the Western Emperor …” Yang Luyi, the commander of the jungle knight army, expressed his opinion.

This is really possible. A month ago, the temporary general in the northern theater, Amy, really sent a dragon knight to notify the situation, and also asked about the whereabouts of Miss Lin Yushang. If there is no accident, part of the elite combat power in the northern theater is now fighting the Sanggan River theater. As the only inland theater in the empire, the Sanggan River theater ranks the penultimate in terms of comprehensive combat power. This is an indisputable fact. All officers in the Jielin Theater believe that Amy, who has always been known as the golden brain, will not be stupid enough to fight against the city and the ground, as long as he can find a way to attract the enemy ’s troops from the city, whether it is a surprise or a positive During the battle, the soldiers in the Gyeonggi (Northern) theater had an absolute advantage.

Marshal Chi Datong thought about it and shook his head slightly.

The current highest military chief of Sang Ganhe is a famous running dog general! Will Rebaddon be so stupid as to give up the advantages of the city and come out to attack? This too underestimates the soldier who is known as this wise man. Although there are not many regular troops in the Sanggan River theater, the swordsman battalion is not much less than the other theaters in the empire. These miscellaneous troops were not well trained and equipped poorly. They came out to participate in battles. Due to morale and experience, they were easily defeated by the regular army, If these swordsman battalions were hiding behind the city walls, throwing stones, shooting arrows, and boiling water, they would not be much worse than the regular army. Coupled with the reserve and other armed forces, even if Amy’s ability is great, no matter how many Dragon Knights, it is absolutely impossible to win an avalanche victory in a short time.

Taking another step back, even if the situation in the Sanggan River theater has reached an incurable level, there must be an elite army of reinforcements. Then … why at least 300,000 troops east of Jielin retreat? Such a force can already defeat the Sanggan army alone, and there is no reason to leave so hastily.

conspiracy? trap?

The old marshal had a similar thought in his mind, and then shook his head again to deny it.

It’s one thing to be reluctant to let the child catch the wolf, but it’s another thing to kill the child first and not necessarily catch the wolf. The range of activities of the scouts in the Jielin Theater is 50 miles per day. Now all the scouts who have returned have not seen the opponent ’s army, that is, the other party retreated in a hurry, and the retreat direction is northeast. What are the pitfalls of doing this?

“Nord, you arrange a brigade to clean the battlefield and transport all kinds of supplies back as much as possible. Run a few more times, don’t be greedy and get caught in the end.”

“Master, what about you?” Nord quickly asked.

“I summon the dragon, let’s see.”

After thinking about it, Nord still put some words in his heart. Although the opponent also has a dragon knight, the mount dragon of the Marshal is a fifth-order natural dragon. Its flying speed is second only to the wind dragon. Even if three or four dragon knights set a trap in the sky, they may not beat it. There must be no problem running. Lord Marshal is not so confused as to fight with the enemy, so there is no need to say anything redundant. After the pressure in the Jielin theater increased greatly, the second-hand dragon knight Yang Chao accompanied the prince Tiedu to command the war in the southern part of the theater 10 days ago. Otherwise, the Grand Marshal did not have to do it himself.

“The sky is windy, please be careful of your body.” Nord stood up and handed over Marshal’s Dragon Knight cloak.

During the war, most of the dragon riders’ dragons were nearby or even in the barracks. The dragon flute just sounded for a few minutes, and the pale blue dragon fell with the drizzle.

The old marshal pulled three of them in a row before sitting on the dragon saddle. Nord watched from behind, slightly sour in his nose, and pushed forward for another thirty years. The dragon was still in suspension. Pull the ribbon and sit in the dragon saddle. Now … the old man in his seventies … If Chi Changyun got married early, the grandson should be embraced, and he should have enjoyed the due treatment in the honor of the empire’s lifetime marshal.

The dragon’s blue wings spread vigorously, and the rain star reversed and flew, and the 19-meter-long dragon roared into the air, and disappeared into the sky after two breaths.

Years are not forgiving, Chi Datong truly felt this sentence. Just 10 years ago, he could still see the figure of the size of ants on the ground from the sky. At this time, it has not reached such a height, and the following has been blurred. With a sigh in his heart, the Dragon Knight signaled the dragon to lower its height.

On the plain of winter’s words, all the trees are green and yellow, and there is no rain for more than 30 days, but the sun is not weaker than in summer. The forages that are half a person tall are stubborn.

Starting from the former enemy ’s barracks, a red bare earth road with a width of more than 50 meters is extended to the northeast every few hundred meters. No tens of thousands of people will walk through it without this effect. The red roads converge in the distance, forming a wide road with a width of 300 meters.

The dragon wings vibrate frequently …

After more than an hour, Red Avenue still can’t see the end, and the water dragon is at least 80 miles away in an hour. What happened? The Holy Vatican forces are retreating in a hurry?

Is it … plague? Rebellion? The Dragon Knight tried to find the correct answer.

Ok? what is that?

A beating black dot flashed on the ground in red and yellow. The dragon was flying too fast and disappeared at this instant. The old marshal issued a command, and the dragon screamed happily, turning around in the air, dive back.

Field Marshal’s browed eyebrows gathered a little … What is this? What is this next?

The yellow pasture seems to be flooded with white water, and at the front of the current is a black dot. The dragon is lower and lower, and Chi Datong’s face is more and more dignified-it seems that there is Some things are moving forward, these things are very tall, and the speed of travel is still very fast.

The wings of the dragon gathered together and fell to the ground like a stone …

what? !

There was a trace of surprise on Marshal Chi Datong’s face, and the dragon rein was vigorously driven with both hands, and the wings of the dragon spread again ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ The landing speed dropped sharply and immediately increased!

At the moment just now, Lord Marshal saw a scene that he had never seen in this life-that black dot turned out to be a black flag, which was not surprising in itself. All the flags of the Black Dragon Knights were black. , There is a skull on this black banner, and, instead of the kind of skulls painted on it, but a complete human skull is hung on the black banner, and it makes even the Marshals ca n’t believe their eyes. The skeleton felt the approach of the dragon and suddenly raised his head. The eyes of the black hole stared at the dragon and the dragon knight! A sharp scimitar emerged, pointing straight at the Dragon Knight.

At the same moment, Master Marshal was even more surprised to find that all the skeletons moving forward like white waves in the wild grass were skeletons … hundreds of skeletons!

Who summoned so many skeletons? What is he going to do?

In the nearly 60 years of military career of Marshal, I have heard that there is a kind of undead priest who can summon skeletons to help himself fight, but … the time, place, and character distance in this rumor are at least 500 years old. Could it be that these legendary undead priests eventually turned to Faranos?

Come to think, these skeletons can not defeat the Dragon Knight. Also, are you too dizzy? Lord Marshal took a deep breath and decided to take a lower look and then take a closer look.

However, at this moment, a gust of wind suddenly came from the sky on the south side!

Ok? Dragon … and Dragon Knight …

What are your opponents doing? Lord Marshal murmured in his heart, and then pulled down the face shield, took off the dragon gun, and hung it on the back of the dragon. The red spear pointed at the dragon knight who was approaching from his retreat: “The ancient covenant gives us sacred honor, fight. , Lord Montecan! “
