Law of the Devil Chapter 227: [Solo ride camp! 】
Chapter Two Twenty-seven [Single Ride to Camp! 】
During the day and night, Dewey ordered the entire army not to rest. Such an order seems to be immoral to the soldiers who have just experienced a small-scale battle, but the cavalry of the tulip family is still Strictly executed the order of Lord Duke.
"I know you're tired! I'm more **** tired!" Du Wei loudly said, "You are knights with strict training, and I am a weak magician. No I'll tell you, I'm sitting on the horse right now, and my two thighs hurt me to get angry. However, my warriors ... There are 20,000 jackals in front of them, and they are about to swallow our brothers and sisters, and stab our people. We must persist! Persevere! "
Du Wei's full-bodied voice passed through the ears of every tulip cavalry. I have to say that Dewey's remarks have a lot of water. Not to mention Du Wei after practicing the starry sky, his body is far from being "cowardly". Moreover, as a magician, he has quietly used a wind magic to make his body lighter.
The real discomfort is Muse. He feels like he's almost falling apart. However, he knew that as long as he showed a little bit of persistence, the cruel duke would throw himself halfway without hesitation, no matter if he wanted to do so already!
"Sir!" Lema, a scout cavalry who ran in front, ran back: "Climb the hillside in front and you will see the city of Giliat!"
"Order the army to slow down!" Du Wei wiped the sweat on his head.
It's really tiring. Although I have tried my best to reduce the bumps on the horse's back, the inner thigh rubbed on the saddle for a day, and it hurts a lot.
Due to this, Du Wei's luck is really good! Some "Golden Wolf Head Guard" on that grassland led people to attack the city of Gilliat, an army of 20,000 people, and there must be scouts around. But Du Wei and his party never met the prairie.
I have to say that he is very lucky.
Du Wei is racing against time! The most ideal result is to be able to reach Giliat City before the Prairie! If that doesn't work, be second to none, just before the prairie people attack!
This is a small hill, or, to be precise, just a small bag. Du Wei made the horse stop underneath, and took a few people to climb the mountain bag. From a distance, the city of Giliat is in sight!
The sky is full of stars. The dilapidated walls of the city of Giliat are in the distance, built against the mountains and backed by the Kilimaro Mountains. Although the city wall was briefly repaired after Dewey established it as his own production base, it was mostly used to prevent outsiders from snooping and to prevent the slaves inside from escaping.
You're welcome. If it's from a military perspective ... Longbottom once made an unceremonious evaluation "If I lead a soldier. A charge can hit the wall!"
Du Wei and a few of his men just climbed the hillside and looked into the distance. His first reaction was to take a breath! !!
The city of Giliat is backed by Mount Kilimaro, and below the walls. It's a big open area! This is a large wasteland with an area of about ten square meters. The grassland is shrubbery all year round except for gravel.
It can be said that there is no better battlefield for cavalry than this place! Above the flat wasteland, when the cavalry charged up. Without any obstructions!
At this moment, under the eyelids of Dewey, just above the wasteland under the city of Giliat, has been occupied by the prairie!
The army of these prairie people is completely different from the army of the empire. They do not have the habit of camping, they do not even build camps, and they do not use fences for any protection.
Probably because this time it sneaked into the empire's territory and did not carry a heavy convoy.
However. Looking ahead, the tents one by one above the wilderness are like mushrooms growing out of thin air on the ground.
People yelled at his horse, enthusiastically. Around the tents, the barbarians in the grasslands were busy. Live, feed the horse. Countless huge torches burning with turpentine erected in it, as if daylight.
The tents, the prairie wolf holding the machete. Murderous.
Releasing Dewey is ... above the walls of Gilliat. The tulip banner is still standing high!
The city is still there, Robert hasn't lost it!
Du Wei's eyes flashed. Looking back at a few men, he smiled bitterly: "It seems we must first find a way to pass through the enemy's tent."
The prairie people have no plans to rest. They seem to have known about the lack of troops in Gilliat City. After all, it is a former capital city, and its size is not small. If such a large city is to be completely defended, the Cavaliers of Robert Cavaliers are a bit stretched.
For a long city wall, four thousand people are too few and too few!
Robert stood above the city wall and looked down at the city. Yaowu Yangwei shook the prairie man with a machete. His resolute face was full of anxiety.
The prairie people will be here this evening. The opponent seemed to have been planning to seize Gilliat City for a long time, and launched a very rapid raid.
If you change the other generals, I am afraid that you are suddenly attacked by this prairie soldier from the sky, and you have lost the city defense long ago. However, the always cautious Robert Knight had always kept in mind Dewey's instructions when he gave the city to him.
At that time, Duville held Robert's hand and whispered: "This factory in the city is all my possessions! Robert, nothing here can be accidental, let alone outsiders see or know! I am I have given you all my life! "
Loyal and robust Robert felt the pressure on his shoulders. He made a set of extremely strict defensive regulations, divided the limited troops into duty on the wall in turn, and should not relax at all at any time.
Fortunately. There is nothing else in this abandoned city, but there are many stones. The soldiers demolished many houses without consideration and carried the stones over the city. This was also Robert's order, and he demanded that he always be ready for battle.
There was a soldier who was dozing while on duty. Robert was severely pumped twenty whip and lay in bed for three days. Such harsh requirements have caused many soldiers to be dissatisfied with them. It is not necessary to guard such a remote and abandoned city.
The city is just a group of slaves of labor. There is no gold or silver treasure, but it is a workshop one by one. Who would come here for trouble?
This move has finally received a return.
The first round of raids on the prairie people was soon discovered by soldiers in the garrison. Robert got to the top of the city the first time.
In the first battle of the afternoon, the plan of the prairie to attack Gilliat City in one fell swoop failed. After three hundred bodies were left. They temporarily returned.
And Robert, lost two hundred people, plus three hundred wounded soldiers who lost their combat effectiveness.
In the case of insufficient force, Robert took the initiative and issued a batch of weapons. A thousand young slaves in the city were mobilized to head up and defend the city.
He didn't mobilize too much for these slaves, but just pointed at the rider under the city and waved the machete grassland man on the horse, coldly: "You see, these guys are wolf on the grassland! If they kill Come in. Then you will all be killed! These people will not stay! I am not asking you to help me defend the city, but to fight for your own survival. "
Fortunately, Du Wei has always been kind to these slaves. He has no worries about eating and drinking, and promised to give them freedom in the future. Most of the slaves consciously participated in the battle.
In the afternoon, the prairiemen launched a total of three attacks, each time being repelled with the cooperation of the garrison and the slave.
But Robert is in front of him: in the regular army in his hand, he lost a total of 800 people and almost a quarter of his combat power. And the slaves lacked equipment. It also killed and injured nearly a thousand people, especially the prairie people's bows and arrows, which are especially deadly to slaves without armor and shield protection.
While the enemy temporarily retreated once again, Robert ordered the demolition of the walls on the door panels of a large number of abandoned houses to serve as shields.
Prairie people don't seem to be prepared to give Robert a chance to breathe. Although they set up a tent outside the city, they didn't rest. Instead, two thousand-man teams were separated and harassed the city at all times. Arrow rain round by round. Let the people in the city dare not relax.
Robert looks at the night. Looking at the enemies beneath the city, the knight was worried.
"Is the gate blocked?" Robert looked at a man next to him.
"Okay, sir." This is an officer with a commanding rank: "We blocked the gate with stones!"
Robert sighed, without the slightest relief on his face.
Blocking the city gate is a last resort.
The method of siege of the prairie in the afternoon makes the Robert Knight from the empire inland frown.
Because the northwest is an arid region, there are usually no moats around cities. Therefore, the prairie people can rush down to the city and threaten the gate directly.
The prairie men can send a hundred death squadrons, braving the falling rocks and arrows of the city, and rushing to an effective distance, then they will use a special tool to carry around: An iron arrow with a sharp hook and a thick, very strong rope on the arrow. Dozens of specially selected cavalry with strong arms shoot arrows at the city gate at the same time, the arrows are nailed on the gate, and the hooks hook the gate deeply, and then the hundred cavalry pull the rope The other end of the horse hangs on the horse and runs back quickly!
The first battle in the afternoon, the opponent is like this, the strength of dozens of horses, pulled the gate down!
At that time, Robert himself brought a team of heavily armored heavy infantry to the city gate, which finally blocked the grassland cavalry that swarmed into the city in one breath. However, his only team of heavy armored infantry was completely lost in that battle.
Finally, there was a scene that made people want to cry without tears: the gate of the city was blocked by the body of one of his soldiers and the dead horse of the steppe cavalry, which resolved the crisis.
Afterwards, Robert ignored the two wounds cut by the machete on his body, and immediately ordered people to block the city gate with stones!
This way, it seems safe, but it also cuts off hope!
If one of your reinforcements comes ... then you want to receive reinforcements into the city. Both ...
Instantaneously, but if you do n’t block the city gate, I ’m afraid the city will be lost if you do n’t wait for sunset today!
Under the stars, a strange horn suddenly sounded in the tents of the prairie people, and the sound seemed to have a faint aura. All prairie men running down the city and shooting arrows at the city from time to time. Hearing the horn, Le turned his head and retreated.
"What are they doing?" Robert frowned.
The leader next to him is a Northwestern man. He thought about it, looked at the night sky, and said, "Sir, it may be midnight. The custom of the prairie people to go to the ground, when midnight, it is a super soul. They believe that midnight It ’s the best time for the dead to ascend to heaven. At this time, they will burn the bodies of people who died during the day. Only then will they stop everything ... probably about an hour or so. "
"An hour." Robert breathed a sigh of relief: "So, we can rest for an hour."
"I don't think so. My lord!" The leader's face was unsightly: "I think we're in trouble ... My lord!"
"Why?"
The leader whispered: "I have been to the prairie, and my father also participated in the war with the Northwest People and Land more than twenty years ago. If the war, the prairie people would choose to stop fighting at night to kill the soul If you go overboard ... then there is only one explanation! "
"Oh?"
This leader's face is ugly: "In their army. Shaman shamans are with the army! Only shaman shamans are qualified to appease war dead warriors. This is their custom ... Master, shaman shaman , Equivalent to the magician of our empire! That's a group of people with terrible skills. "
Robert was silent for a while, and he looked at the prairie tent in the distance. Then I could not help laughing: "Magic ... Shaman Wizard ... Damn it! Since Shaman Wizards have the ability to compare with wizards, why don't they let Shaman Wizards attack us in the afternoon?"
The leader shook his head: "My lord, I don't know what it is. But vaguely heard that the prairie people's rules are different from ours. Their shaman shamans usually don't take it easily. Especially in war, only themselves Only after one side bleeds will the shaman shaman act, as if it is said that the shaman shaman abides by a weird rule. If the shaman shaman kills first. It is sin for them. If they die first, shaman If the shaman revenge, then it will not count as a crime. "
"Weird rules." Robert clenched his sword.
"Master." The leader smiled suddenly, his appearance was not outstanding, but now there was a firmness in his eyes: "I think at dawn, their shaman shaman will shoot ... Can we live to see the sunset tomorrow? It is still unknown ... however, I can fight with you side by side. It is my honor! It is my glory to die under the banner of tulips.
Robert was silent for a while, looking at his non-talkative men. He took a deep breath, raised his sword, and Shen said, "All for the family!"
"For the family!" The leader also pulled out his sword, tapped Robert's sword lightly, and performed a knight etiquette.
This hour seems to be long and short.
But Robert knew in his heart that he was probably more ferocious this time! The sneak attack on the prairie people showed no signs, and he could not even send a letter to the young master. On the plains, there are cavalrymen on the prairie everywhere, and they want to send scouts to rush out to send letters or ask for help ... That is delusional.
In the tent of the prairie, a horn of horns came, and the horn was melodious, as if to appease the dead soul, with a hint of softness. But in Robert's ears, the sound seemed to be a rush!
Because this horn sounds over, it is certain that the prairie will launch the next attack! And this time ... there will be shaman wizards participating in the battle!
Finally, at the end of the horn, Robert suddenly lifted his chest, and the wound on the left shoulder was still in pain, maybe the bandage was not tight enough. It was a little loose, and Robert could feel that the blood had soaked in the bandage, it was sticky and wet, and it was very uncomfortable.
But ... they are all dying, no matter what they do.
Robert Knight sneered, and he put his sword lightly on the wall, and a look of death broke out in his eyes.
A thunderous drum sound came from deep inside the prairie man's tent. Immediately after the hoof hoof, a group of prairie cavalry rushed out of their barracks, then lined up, and suddenly ran out dozens of naked upper men from behind. Wooden stakes, and then turned the hammer to insert these sharp sticks on the ground.
The height of these wooden sticks stands outside the range of the bow and arrow below the city, with the upper end sharp. Robert didn't quite understand what these people wanted to do.
The scene that followed. Make Robert suddenly angry! !! !!
The prairie people began to carry out a corpse! From the appearance of the corpses, Robert immediately recognized them, who were his own people who fell from the city after being killed or injured in the battle this afternoon!
There are soldiers of their own, and those slaves! !!
Now. These dead soldiers, all of their armor and clothes were stripped! And the armor that originally belonged to his infantry was worn on the prairie man! These prairie people lacking mineral resources seem to have a natural desire for armor. Regardless of whether it was a fit or not, he wore the armor of the Imperial infantry crookedly and sat on the horse.
The corpses were lined up, and the dead soldiers were lying straight on the ground. A prairie walked slowly out of the queue, holding a machete in his hand, pointing at the city wall, and yelling loudly.
Far away, Robert couldn't clearly hear the prairie people. But when this guy finished talking, the prairie people next to him burst into a roar and shout immediately, as if they were crazy, holding a machete, howling like a beast!
"What do they want to do?" Robert looked grim.
"Sir! They are proclaiming ... slaying the city!" The commanding officer next to him bit his teeth and said it word by word.
"Slay the city!?"
"Yes!" The officer suddenly punched the city wall with a strong punch, and suddenly tears flowed from his eyes: "They ... they are going to set up a head frame!"
Don't wait for Robert to ask again, and suddenly heard the prairie man roar. The dozens of naked men behind him seemed to have heard the order. After taking off the sharp scimitar from behind, he was under the eyelids of Robert and many soldiers in the city. They cut off the heads of the dead tulip family fighters one by one!
Then these heads were all pierced on those sharp wooden stakes! Rows and rows of stakes are covered with **** heads! !!
This move immediately angered all the soldiers standing in the city. The soldiers roared loudly and pulled out their weapons. For a while, the group was so angry that some people even wished to jump out of the city and fight desperately with each other. If it wasn't for the gates already clogged, I'm afraid someone would have rushed out desperately! !!
Even though it was Robert who had always been calm, at this moment it was bloodshot eyes, his face was distorted, and he yelled suddenly, jumping up the ramparts. Under his anger, he almost jumped out of the city on the spot and desperately attacked the enemy, suddenly He was hugged by the commanding officer around him, pulling him down.
"My lord! My lord !!!" The officer's eyes were red: "My lord! This is a trick used by prairie people! They often use this method to provoke the garrison and lead the garrison when they attack the city. Go out for a decisive battle! Can't be fooled by them !!! "
Robert roared and turned and shouted at the prairie: "Animals! A group of animals! If there is a chance! I will make all the people on your prairie all become headpieces !!!"
Du Wei stood on the hillside and looked forward.
The men behind him felt the duke's body tremble faintly.
Du Wei's hawk-eye technique, although still a few miles away, can still clearly see the scene below the city. Especially when the prairie people cut off the heads of the corpses and pierced them one by one, Du Wei's fist was tightly squeezed, and his nails almost pierced his palm. The men behind him couldn't see these, but could clearly feel that a sudden terrible chill erupted suddenly from the duke's body! !!
"Sir ... you ..."
Sieg tempted to speak.
Du Wei turned his head. He looked at Zige's face, and looked at the faithful magic student, he suddenly gritted his teeth: "It's a pity that you can't see that scene ... I don't know if it's lucky or unfortunate!"
After speaking, he settled down: "Go down and let everyone gather, we are ready to rush over!"
"No!" Zieg objected immediately.
"What did you say?!"
Sieg looked at Du Wei's angry eyes, he suddenly felt a cold on his neck, and quickly said: "Master! I have been in the army. Now the situation, the army besieged, the city's defenders are outnumbered, according to the usual practice Mostly, the city gates have been blocked! We are too small, more than 800 riders, can we pass the array of 20,000 people each other or two ... Even if we rushed past, the city gates were blocked. We entered the city. Can't get in! If the enemy is forced to die below the city ... "
Du Wei was silent, he thought for two seconds, and immediately made a decision.
"That's it! I'll rush into the city alone! I'm a magician and can fly in from the sky ..." Just now, Zieg seemed to be opposed. But Du Wei's killing eyes made him dare not to say a word, Du Wei continued: "Zig, all of you are temporarily back, here is too close to the enemy camp! You exit two miles! At dawn, Gaida should take Our people have arrived! You wait for all the teams to arrive! Then ... I will give you a signal! As long as you see the flames above the gates of the sky ... you will concentrate all your forces to dash in! Do you understand? "
Sieg looks at Du Wei, desperately desperate: "Master! But you alone ..."
"Did you understand?" Du Wei drank suddenly, his eyes staring at Zieg, gritted his teeth: "I am the Duke, I made a decision! Implementation!"
"Master! You are the coach! Duke!" Sieg still wanted to stop.
"Zig, you remember my words." Du Wei took a deep breath, and then said word by word: "Some things in this world can't be done ... but some. Be sure to do it !! "
Just beside the heads of the people below the city, when the prairie wolves shouted unscrupulously, they didn't realize that a thick black cloud had drifted quietly above the sky.
Suddenly, there was a thunderous roar behind me!
Boom! !! !!
With a loud noise, a lightning burst from the dark clouds above the sky, which suddenly split. Directly hit the hinterland of the prairie people's camp!
Flame immediately. In the camp of the prairie people, many people were alarmed. There was also a large fire that immediately burned three or five tents into a ball of fire. The people inside were buried before the fire broke out!
Du Wei rides one by one, facing the 20,000 army camp of the prairie, launching an impact!
The Thunder Summoning Magic just now is the highest level of a fifth-level spell that Du Wei can use at present. The summoning of such a magic spell immediately drew half of Du Wei's entire magic! But relying on the multicolored stones on his fingers to create a ground ring, Du Wei added magic in a moment!
In the firelight, the prairie people have found such a horse rushing towards their camp. The defending prairie wolf immediately separated dozens of horses and rushed head-on, and the arrow rain fell quickly all over the sky!
The Du Wei people were on the horse, and suddenly they slammed the saddle, and they immediately flew up from the saddle! The wizard's robe fluttered in the sky with his arms open, and Du Wei sang aloud a spell.
He is wrapped in a ball of silver magic light, and his open arms seem to embrace the whole sky in his arms! As the dark clouds in the sky became lower and lower, lightning bolts flowed through the dark clouds. Du Wei looked down at the grassland people densely like ants, and his roar came from the sky.
"Dead !!"
A finger, as if guided by the gods, in the dark clouds, again a lightning strikes toward the densest part of the crowd, fiercely split!
Suddenly, the fire was shining! !!
Du Wei is now like an incarnation of Thunder God. His ten fingers are as dexterous as musicians. His fingers are flipped, as if the thunder that directs the sky turns into a magnificent movement. Lightning one by one, under his command. Down, hit the ground like a serial thunderbolt!
The roar is mixed with the screams and frightened shouts of countless people. The running crowd and horses often become a scorched corpse after lightning.
And after more than ten consecutive thunderbolts in one breath, a long and deep ditch with a width of two meters and a length of dozens of meters was immediately plowed above the ground! !!
The fifth level of magic summoning by the thunder is stored by Du Wei by the massive magic of multicolored stones. Such crazy and intensive display is really powerful! !! But it is also very magical! Such a series of Thunder Summoners also drained all the magic of Dewey's whole body! If it weren't for his ring of multicolored stones, if it were an ordinary magician of the same level as Dewey, I am afraid that after two or three more thunders, he would be pumped out because of the magic transition. !!
After watching this round of magical attacks on the ground, the prairie has been wounded and injured almost a thousand, but Du Wei felt a collapse in his body for a while. With a thought, he took the last magic from the ring, and then flew towards the wall of Giliat quickly against the wind! !!
The prairie on the ground was frightened and angry, and they were roaring and shouting, and some people tried to pick up bows and arrows and shoot at Dewey in the sky. Winded away by the wind, where can I hit Dewey?
Just as if no one could stop Du Wei, suddenly a strange sound came from the tent of the prairie above the ground. It sounded like the magician of the Roland Empire chanted magic, but the tone was exceptionally slow and astringent.
The sound fell into people's ears, and it was disturbing for a while, and Du Wei was shocked!
In front of me, a huge blood-red banner suddenly appeared in the sky. The blood-red banner was so huge that it was tens of meters wide. It was printed with a **** skull!
Scarlet skull flag?
Du Wei hastened to a halt and stopped, and it was embarrassing that he didn't bump into the banner.
The intermittent sound below seemed to be a little weak, but this sound overwhelmed the noise on the ground, like a ray of sharp needles, gently piercing Du Wei's ear!
"Which wizard of the Roland Empire will come!"
When the voice didn't fall, I saw a man in a white robe soaring into the sky, and he had already been pulled up to the same height as Dewey. He stood faintly on the blood-red blood-colored skull flag, a long gray Hair flutters, almost covering all the faces, but the exposed skin is not as pale as humans!
This man just stood lightly on the Scarlet Skull Banner, standing exactly where the skull's eyebrows stood. Unlike the Empire's magician, this guy doesn't have the slightest magical light in his whole body, and looks almost dead-hearted, extraordinarily weird!
"I am under the holy driving of the princess witch king, shaman in white and shaved teeth, respected Roland magician, please report your name!"
Sign up?
"Your mother!" This is Du Wei's only answer! !!
