Law of the Devil Chapter 615: [Can you be bold? 】
Chapter 615 [Can you be bold? 】
"Strong ~! Push ~! Push ~~ Push ~!"
The officer yelled at the horn, and within the Yajin City near the city walls, one by one the catapults were piled up. The soldiers ran back and forth with their tools and wood, and slammed a heavy crossbow cannon against the wall with their shoulders, and set up a trebuchet below the city.
The logistical heavy soldiers removed all the detachable wooden boards in the city, creating a large number of simple wooden shields.
The soldiers also knew that fighting would break out at any time, losing the fortress on the eastern front, and Yajin City was exposed to the enemy's iron hoof. The enemy's wolf cavalry, and those orc warriors, can go all the way down the plains without hindrance, and they can kill under Ajin City in just two days!
Although the enemy has been slow, the Lord Duke Tulip is right: fate must always be in your own hands. The enemy cannot be expected to go south, but he must make some preparations now.
Therefore, although the officers and supervisors are severe and almost harsh, most of the soldiers have no complaints. After all, this is also to protect your own life.
There was originally a small hillside not far from Yajin City. Du Wei had already sent people up the hillside and cut down dozens of trees originally on the hillside. A lookout was erected on the hillside. From this height, you can see a few miles away. It played a very effective pre-tensioning role in protecting Yajin City. Although there were only 100 Gryphon riders in the sky, there were always omissions in the patrol rounds.
The entire city of Yajin is hot, military and civilians are working together to prepare for the war. Countless people clinging to the rough wooden stakes were nailed, and rolled nails were piled on the wall. The gate panels of the city gate have been repeatedly strengthened. In order to meet the battle at any time, a large pile of wood was placed at the gate. All the carpenters in the city were busy for a few days without a good night's sleep.
In the temporary commander's office in Yajincheng, Du Wei is discussing the situation with the eleven military academies who have graduated from his department. In addition, there are several local guards deployed from the army and the defeated Several mid-level officers escaped from the Storm Corps.
The defeat on the front line almost wiped out the senior generals on the eastern defense line, but the senior generals with outstanding martial arts skills. Most of the time when he resisted the dragon that night, he died. As for those who escaped ... To be honest, Du Wei didn't think much of these guys.
Ordinary soldiers may have escaped, perhaps forgivable. After all, the chaotic scenes everyone followed, like headless flies.
You can run away as a general, which is very different! As a general, you cannot gather your army on the battlefield. It was impossible to calm down the scene and make effective instructions and decisions. Du Wei had met several generals who had fled back. As a result, Du Wei, who had an illusion about these people, gave up completely.
It seems ... even in the Storm Corps, there are brave generals like the young lion Fink. But there are also pustules. When the escaped guys ran out, some even wore only a robe. Others only estimate their own run after the city breaks, even leaving their own team behind.
It's even more ridiculous. After coming to Yajin City to meet Dewey, he also bluntly asked to re-command his original army. Dewey immediately answered him: your army is no longer there. When you ran away, as a general, you abandoned your own army. Now you ran to me. Want to go back?
Joke!
As a result, Du Wei no matter what the impact is, it will not affect the pustular generals who escaped. All the brains were sent to the logistic forces.
It is true that he has been appointed as the master of the Eastern Front, but if it is normal, Du Wei has no power to absolve so many senior generals from office at once. Fortunately, after the defeat, everything is messy, and no one has investigated with him whether the laws and regulations are in compliance with the regulations, whether there are military approvals, and so on.
However, there were several urgent dispatches in the military department. I heard that the eastern fortress had lost ground to the capital. It will shake the entire army. The Regent turned off the table on the spot, and then sent a series of urgent dispatches to Yajin City. All in all it means one thing: Du Wei, now you want people to give people, money to money, what to give! Emperor will meet all your requirements as much as possible! But ... Ajin City must be held firmly, and there must be no step back!
Because from the back, from the north to the inner belly of the empire, almost all are flat plains of Yipingping!
"We still have a few questions." Gabri wiped his face fiercely with a hot towel. Although his face was exhausted, the kid's eyes were still very bright, and the young man encountered such a big first time on the front line. However, Gabri showed more energy. He dropped the towel and said to Du Wei: "Master, the crossbow cannons in the warehouse have all been mounted on the wall, but our problem is: first, we Lack of skilled gunners! For the crossbow gun to be effective in killing, we must have skilled gunners and observers. We lack the personnel reserves of these two skilled arms, and now we are rushing to let our people control the crossbow gun. I am worried that even If you put a cow 20 meters away, they will be crooked. This is the first ... The second problem is especially serious. There are a lot of arrows in the warehouse, but there is a shortage of crossbow arrows for crossbow guns. The door crossbow gun can only have two bases of crossbow arrows. Once the war starts, I am afraid that these reserves will be used up after a battle. Then, the crossbow gun on the wall will become a decoration.
Gabry glanced at his colleagues and exclaimed: "If it is just an ordinary arrow, the craftsmen in the city can make some temporarily. But this crossbow must be forged by professional military equipment. We cannot make it ourselves. . "
Du Wei nodded, glanced at his brother with satisfaction, this kid really deserves to be the seed of the Luo Lin family, his father's inheritance of the old Raymond is particularly obvious on his body, and once on the battlefield, he seems to change Become a little calf. There is endless strength throughout the body. Looking at Gabrielle's red eyes, Dewey knew that the boy hadn't slept for almost three days.
"Well, I noted down the two questions you mentioned. People have been sent to the rear for mobilization. Someone who had previously been contacted by the main Eastern Cypriots has returned. General Rostock said that he would ship a batch of supplies as soon as possible. Here we come. "
After Gabri said, without waiting for Dewey, Yalor immediately said loudly: "Sir. I inspected the city walls. The walls of Yajin City were generally intact. The repair work before the war was in line with the standards, but Location, because the hillside is not far outside the city, I am worried that once the war begins, the enemy will occupy that hillside, so that we can look into the city. Observe all our internal activities, but now the time is too tight, we have no time to take that Excavate the hillside ... "
Du Wei clenched his eyebrows and knocked on the table: "This is a difficult problem, you all have to think about it and see if there is any way. It's impossible. Please ask a magician to help. But it is after all It ’s not easy to level the hillside. If it does n’t work, install more catapults in the west of the city.
After Yalor's report, a slender young officer with brown hair and black hair stood up to speak. Dewey glanced at this guy Kira? Well, it's the guy with the same name as the main character of Gundam in the military college students.
"Sir, everything is still stable in the barracks. We have dispatched a large number of grass-roots officers to reorganize the rout army of the gathered Storm Corps according to your instructions. But ..." People's tone is a little difficult.
"But what?" Du Wei snorted.
"In the past few days, some officers have come here to report the frontline defeated officers. Some people came to the barracks and demanded to take over the command of their original army again.
Slap!
Du Wei raised an eyebrow at that time, slammed the table fiercely, and suddenly yelled, "Junk! I lost my army for escape, but now I want to be a general?!"
"Yes, sir." Kira Shen said: "Some of them have ranks above the command level, and claim that they belong to the establishment of the Storm Corps. Although you are the coach of the Eastern Front. But There is no right to remove the General of the Stormwind Corps, and some people claim to invite General Rostock ... "
"Let them go!" Du Wei sneered: "These cowardly ghosts. They dare to go to Rostock to be ghosts! The frontline fortress has been lost, and Rostock may now have nowhere to vent his anger, these people are the defeat How dare you find General Rostock? Huh! "
He suddenly lowered his voice, glaring at Kira, and groaned, "I give you a military order ... I just don't know if you have the courage to do it!"
Speaking, Du Wei's eyes flashed a strange light, and a sneer sneered at the corner of his mouth.
"..." Kira took a look at Dewey and took a deep breath: "Dare!"
"Okay!" Du Wei sat back and said, "If someone goes to the barracks to make trouble, you will rush out! If you don't leave, catch up and fight with the army stick! If you hit the army stick, you dare to make trouble ... Du Wei said here, paused deliberately, and then said coldly, "I grant you privileges, and dare to disturb the barracks disciples, whoever they are, regardless of rank or rank, kill !! What happened, I bear With it! "
After speaking, Du Wei grabbed the pen and paper from the table, swiped and wrote an authorization special order quickly, and then gave it to Kira. He deliberately looked at the young man coldly and wanted to see See if he has the courage to do this kind of thing. After doing this kind of thing, although Du Wei said something he assumed, but after all, as an executor, if you open the killing ring, you will offend many people.
The young man named Kira is silent, but firmly accepts Du Wei ’s military order, then performs a military salute, and walks out.
Du Wei nodded with satisfaction, although he was not the same as the Gundam protagonist in his impression, but this young man is a good seed!
Du Wei leaned back again, rubbing his sore eyebrows, and he has also been busy these days. Taking a look at the generals in the hall, he renewed his energy and listened to some other officers reporting on the city's barracks and city defense.
And at this moment, a figure broke in suddenly, opened the door of the hall with a bang, and then rushed in.
The person seems a little reckless, but his look is calm. Just running all the way, it seemed a little breathless.
"Aslan, panic!" Yalor reminded in a deep voice.
At first glance, Dewey was his Majesty's "Gundam Leader", the guy named Aslandi.
"Master." Aslan stood and saluted immediately, but spoke quickly: "Outside the city, a team of wolf cavalry is approaching!"
Wow!
After hearing this, all the generals in the room suddenly stood up. Some people even put their hands directly on the sabre at the waist.
Aslan then hurriedly continued: "The opponent's wolf cavalry has only twenty horses, and the sentry card has been carefully checked. There is no opponent's follow-up unit nearby, and it must be a lone army. And ... they do not seem to come City, as if to come! "
"Come?" Du Wei snorted.
"Yes, sir." Aslan straightened up and said, "This team of wolf cavalry is accompanied by about three hundred humans ... Look at the costume and appearance, it seems to be our soldiers. It may be Prisoner of War! "
On the fifteenth day after the fall of the eastern fortress, finally, that morning, the Griffin Knight in the sky sent news that there was a team of wolf cavalry. Holding the empire's banner high and heading south from the occupied fortress, this team of wolves rode only twenty, accompanied by about three hundred human soldier captives.
And they watch over the Gryphon Knight. All the way down to Yajin City. He claimed to have sent a personal letter from the commander of the sinners to the commander of the human army of Yajincheng!
When the team of wolf cavalry came to the city, the human guards in the city immediately warned. The soldiers clenched their weapons, stood on the wall, and looked nervously at these enemies not far below the city.
But this team of wolf cavalry stopped far away about two hundred steps outside the city. No more forward, twenty wolf cavalry stopped in the distance, and those werewolves covered with spears rode in Above the wolf. Holding a long knife, he looked at the human soldiers in the city coldly and gaily.
Du Wei personally brought people to the city. Subsequently, the wolf cavalry were in different places, and the accompanying three hundred human prisoners of war began to line up slowly toward the gate.
The three hundred humans accompanying them are indeed soldiers. This can be seen from their walking posture.
Some of these people have some injuries on their bodies, and naturally they have no armor or weapons. All are simple cotton robes. Everyone looked downcast and dispirited.
To Dove's surprise. Among the three hundred captives brought by this team of wolf cavalry, there was a man he knew!
Rohat!
When Rohat returned to the city with other captives, the rest of the prisoners of war were immediately taken away by the soldiers in the city. Rohart met Dewey and he gave Dewey a handwritten letter.
"You ... aren't dead?" Du Wei took the letter and didn't watch it immediately. Instead, he carefully looked at this young boy who had met him before, with a hint of joy on his face.
He then went up and hugged the young man, patted him on the shoulder, and laughed out loud: "Rohart! Haha, I remember you kid! You are not dead! Great! You I do n’t know, I thought you were dead, and they were crying fiercely! ”
Rohart took a step back and looked at Dewey, his expression was very excited, but then his eyes were darkened: "Master, thank you for your kindness ... Please accept this letter, and then ... I want Go back and tell your response to the Elven King. "
"What? You still want to go back?" Du Wei frowned, his eyes puzzled: "Since you are back, you don't have to go back! You are the future star of the Decepticons, and I thought you died last time. At the front line, Zieg blame themselves deeply, and I am also sad! Now that you are back, how can I still let you ... "
"Master." Rohat laughed bitterly, he suddenly knelt down on one knee, looked up at Du Wei, solemnly said: "Master, please believe that my loyalty has never been shaken !!! Just, That Elven King, it seems to know you very well, and it is also very familiar with you. This time it sent me back because the wolf cavalry did not speak our human language. I have been in the enemy camp these days. Learned Their language, so they sent me to act as a translator ... and Luo Xue asked me to go back ... because there were two thousand of our prisoners of war in the fortress on the front line. Luo Xue said, if I don't go back ... "
Rohart's eyes were hazy.
"You mean, Luo Xue sent you back to send the letter, if you don't go back ... he threatens you with the life of the remaining 2,000 prisoners of war?"
Rohart nodded heavily.
Du Wei was silent, he looked at the boy in front of him, these days passed in the enemy camp. Rohat looked much more mature and stable than the hot-blooded boy in the Northwest Barracks. The peculiarly hot blood of the young man on his face has gradually become the fortitude of a mature man.
"Why?" Du Wei whispered, "Why does it value you so much?"
"I don't know." Rohat shook his head: "I've been by the snow these days, and I think ... it seems to me completely different from other prisoners of war. I can't think of anything I have about it. What a special value. I'm just a junior officer, and I don't have much valuable intelligence here. "
Dou Wei's brows froze, something weird.
"This is not the place to speak." Dewey brought Rohat back to town. Rohat followed Du Wei all the way, without saying a word. There were Du Wei's followers around, and he looked at this returning "prisoner of war" with strange eyes. Rohat walked along, squeezing his fists. There seemed to be a shame on his face.
"You don't need to feel guilty." Du Wei suddenly turned back, glanced at the young man, and said, "It's not your fault to be captured by the enemy! As a soldier, you have fulfilled all your duties! You fight heroically .It is not a shame to cover the companions for their safe retreat and to be captured after a fierce battle! Rohart, being captured is not a shame, you do n’t need to lower your head. "
"But ... I should have committed suicide ..." Rohat suddenly burst into tears.
"That's stupid words." Du Wei shook his head: "On the battlefield, all kinds of unpredictable things would have happened. Is it necessary that the captive commit suicide to show loyalty? That is foolish thought!"
Suddenly, Du Wei suddenly smiled bitterly: "Although ... I don't know why, but the falling snow valued you so much. If it doesn't want you to die, with its ability, you are in its hands and want to die. Can't die, I understand. "
With this remark, the depression in Rohart's mind just disappeared a little. Du Wei led him back to the house, opened up his followers, and talked to him alone.
Rohart immediately captured himself. Then after being captured. Has been imprisoned beside the elven king Luo Xue, what happened these days. Have said it carefully. He did not conceal in the slightest, and even bluntly gave Luo Xue various special favors, and he did not worry whether these words would cause Du Wei's suspicion.
Finally, speaking of the fall of the eastern fortress, Rohat said: "From the fall of the river to the fall of the fortress, the entire battle plan was directed by the elven king Luo Xue himself. On the day of the battle on the river, they deliberately placed The stance of crossing the river attracted our warships to the river, and then used the hippos orcs to attack underwater, annihilating the power of our warships on the water and clearing the biggest obstacles to cross the river ... "
At the end, Rohat shed tears again: "Sir, I am in the camp of the enemy, and I always live to see those compatriots in the dead ... I feel guilty all the time!"
Du Wei asked again for a while, when Rohart talked about the process of falling snow's command and the changes on the battlefield, the young man said that he was clear, methodical, and bit by bit. Extremely clear.
Du Wei was surprised, and deliberately tempted him a few times, but found that the young and hot-blooded man had been in the enemy camp for a few months, and he seemed to have become a person. Some Qiu Ling, talking about the war situation, talking eloquently, whether talking or looking, are a few steps higher than before!
"You ... learned a lot by Luo Xue these days." Du Wei sighed suddenly.
"Yes ... a lot." Rohat bowed his head. "This elven king doesn't know why, he treats me very well. He even actively discusses many issues with me. I always think of it afterwards, as if it were. They are deliberately instilling this knowledge in me. Even ... it often discusses history books with me. "
Du Wei was silent, and after a while he barely smiled. I took a look at Rohart: "Well, you don't have to worry about it, I didn't doubt you. It was just that I couldn't figure out the purpose of falling snow to do this."
"Sir." Rohart's eyes flushed: "I was in the enemy camp, and I thought, either I could just die, or ... I hope to come back someday. But now ..."
Rohart said here, suddenly choked.
Du Wei patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "I understand your mood. It's hard to come back. After returning to my own side, I can go back to the land of tigers and wolves in an instant. Come back and reunite with your brother and relatives, I can understand the pain in your heart. "
Suddenly, Du Wei sighed and looked at Rohart's young face: "You ... when you thought you were killed. Someone has been sent to your home. Your parents are in good health, your home's Brothers and sisters are also good. Although it is sad for you, since your family is a Rollin generation, naturally someone will take care of it. I made arrangements later, and one of your sisters was arranged to work in Rollin Castle. There will be others in the future Take care of them ... "
Rohart wiped his tears hard, and then took a deep breath. There was a faint flash in his eyes, and he said arrogantly, "Thank you, Lord! But time is tight, needless to say things in my family ... Before I came, Luo Xue said, please read the letter written by him immediately, and then ask me to take your reply with me. I must go back before sunset tomorrow, otherwise the local language ... "
Du Wei nodded. Then he opened the letter from the falling snow and looked at it.
Opening the stationery, I saw that the text on the stationery was very beautiful. I could n’t think of the elves who fell on the snow, and they wrote extremely beautiful Roland mainland text, and its brushwork was actually a very gorgeous "hook angle flower" Style. "
The writing is delicate and gorgeous, line by line. Indescribably beautiful. But this calligraphy is one. Du Weiduo sighed that he rarely writes, and his handwriting is very poor. The only thing that is nice to write is his signature because after all, he is a senior official, and there are still many documents that require his signature on weekdays.
If you look closely, the content of this letter is as follows!
"Letter Duke Duvelin Rudolph:
See the words!
I thought that I would hunt northwest with you in that year. I am in the bitter cold place of the far north, every time I think about your style, I am fascinated. Recalling the past, you and I talked about the past and the present, arguing about the world ’s major events, walking alone in the northwest, thousands of miles of yellow sand, green pastures, snow-capped mountains, everything is vivid and vivid!
It's a pity that you and I are the enemy today.
Remember that in the past you and I had appointments, and your Excellency had words, and I was also pregnant.
Today, I have led hundreds of thousands of troops. Sighing that the style of Roland is the same as before, but the deceased is no longer, and my heart is not very emotional.
Yesterday I heard that Your Excellency also came north, and I was very happy. Although I can no longer sit down and talk about it, I will be able to hunt in the battlefield with your leader, this life is so exciting!
This time you and I have become a fire. However, I still feel the feelings of the past and want to do something foolish. Therefore, I would like to invite you to visit this special book and letter. Although it is inevitable that the swordsmen on the battlefield will meet each other, but if they can get together first and then meet with the sword, this heroic act will also be!
If you are interested, don't doubt my invitation! I know that your heart is open-minded. In the past, the Northwest was so arrogant and courageous that you would not laugh at me as a child!
My heart is long and full of words! I think your gracefulness is unparalleled, it will not make me look at the moon!
If your Excellency is willing to go to the invitation, and the moon is up, I will not do any harm. If in doubt, please laugh and burn this book.
Falling snow. "
The handwriting is elegant and beautiful, and it's over here, but after Du Wei saw it, he stayed for a while, and then read the letter again.
Rohart sees Dewey after reading the letter, but his face is not happy or angry, but there are some weird smiles ...
Finally, Du Wei put down the letter, patted it gently on the table, and then smiled!
"Haha! Ha! What a falling snow! What an elf king!"
Du Wei'an rose, his eyes flickered: "At this time, it actually invited me to an appointment! If someone else wrote this letter, I would think the other party is crazy ... But it ... Huh, Mostly only it will write such things! "
After speaking, he stood up and walked twice in the room. When Rohat heard it, his face changed suddenly. Regardless of Du Wei's reaction, he hurried up and picked up the letter and looked at it twice. Eyes, his face changed suddenly: "Master! This letter is written ... you! You! You must never go !!!"
Du Wei has stood still at this moment, with a sneer in his negative hand: "Why not go. If I don't go, wouldn't I be despised by this guy? Huh ..."
During that, Du Wei glanced at Rohart with a worried face: "Reassure you, I won't be in danger. This elf king ... this falling snow ... hey!"
