As expected, the group of noble children couldn't sit still after hearing the news. Even before lunch was over, there were several people who were busy trying to break in. "Who are you! Stop! Don't break into the headquarters!" The guard at the door shouted and raised his weapon. "It's okay, let them come in. Let me see who wants to see me." Slit and Kalman naturally knew why they came, but they still pretended to be surprised on their faces. They can only say that they are worthy of it. They are teachers and students who work well together. "Yes!" The guard heard Slit's voice and moved away from the door. "Here, you guys didn't eat lunch, why are you here?" Slit wiped the oil stains on his mouth with a clean handkerchief and asked curiously. A young male noble who looked very cool in white and gold armor said with a haughty look: "Old General, I heard that the investigation results have come back? Since the defense in Duogu City is weak, why not attack directly in one go? After entering the ancient city, you are wasting your time here? Could it be that the old general is afraid of those lackeys from the Holy Empire of France?" Slit looked surprised and said patiently: "Little brother, although I don't know where you heard the news about Duogu City, the information I got is not consistent with yours. Duogu City The internal defense force is indeed weak now, but it is not yet known where the main force of the Holy Empire of France is. If this is a deliberate illusion made by the enemy, we will definitely suffer heavy losses if we advance rashly." "In that case, let my people go to Duogu City to investigate first." The male noble said something like a discussion, but his tone was unquestionable. The young noble continued: "I know, Old General, that you are compassionate to the soldiers and do not make unnecessary sacrifices. But as the saying goes, compassion does not lead to soldiers. Since Old General, you cannot bear to have your soldiers injured, then let my soldiers go. . But we agreed in advance that the first victory in the attack on Duogu City must go to me."
Slit sneered inwardly, but still pretended to be deep in hesitated again and again, and reluctantly nodded in agreement: "Okay, but military achievements don't matter, the most important thing must be safety. I am responsible for bringing you out, and I must bring you back safely. I will mobilize 1000 fine cavalry to hold down the formation behind you, but the other Soldiers must not act rashly under any circumstances." "In that case, I would like to thank the old general first. My companions and I only mobilize soldiers sent by our own families, a total of 1242 light and heavy infantry. What do you think, old general?" The young nobleman saw that Slit was a little submissive. He gave in and nodded with satisfaction. Slit's eyes flashed coldly, he didn't expect that these nobles actually bought many soldiers in the , let's take this opportunity to get rid of them all. With this in mind, Slit nodded first and then said hesitantly: "That's fine, but if your Majesty asks you to hold me accountable if I fail, I can't bear this responsibility." "My mother-in-law is really annoying me." The young noble said dissatisfiedly, "I am the second son of the Duke of Kasha, and the others next to me are also direct descendants of the Duke of Bakar, the Duke of Dash, and the Count of Langley. Bloodline. We swear on the name of our family, no matter what the outcome is, we will bear the consequences ourselves. Does this dispel your concerns, old general? " He deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "老". Slit secretly made a mental note of the families behind these people, with an expression of relief on his face: "All the young heroes have reached this point, and I am not a good man. Then I will look forward to your good news. I hope you will be able to do this today." You can meet me in Duogu City in the afternoon. I will make an exception and ask the military logistics to bring a few jugs of wine to reward you." Unexpectedly, the young noble shook his head disdainfully and said: "No need, I can't drink that kind of low-grade wine that seeps water. But here I got a good wine that has been stored for many years by the Lulan Chamber of Commerce. I heard that the old general is very honest. , I must have never tasted such a fine wine. Tonight at the Lord’s Mansion in Duogu City, I will invite the old general to a banquet to show his respect.” "That's fine." Slit's expression froze and he forced a smile, "Then I'll look forward to it." "Let's go, wait for our good news." After the young noble said that, he turned around and left with his companions and walked out of the tent. After their figures disappeared, Slit's expression gradually cooled down. "These nobles stretched their hands too far, and they actually brought alcohol, a contraband of the military. Who was in charge of logistics on the day of the expedition?" Slit narrowed his eyes and asked his student Kalman. Kalman bowed and replied: "Teacher, if the student remembers correctly, the logistics officer of Alos should be in charge. But he did not go out with the army." "Hmph, then we'll settle the score with him after we return home. Now, let's see how many things these ignorant nobles can help us find out about Duogu City." Chapter 35:Charge An army of more than 1000 people separated from the army of Charles's empire in an orderly manner, like water flowing into a branch of a stream. The sun was just right, and the late autumn wind blew through the golden grass that had not touched the horses' , the second son from the Kasha family, rode on a winding war horse and looked at the more than 1000 people, full of confidence. He is not just a fool who loves his achievements as Slit thinks. Is there something fishy about Dogu City?there must he has the confidence to face this trick head on. This time, the family sent him a total of 500 private soldiers equipped with magic heavy armor. The level of defense was vastly different from that of Slit's group of ordinary soldiers.
If we count money, then the money needed to arm these 500 magic soldiers can arm 10000 ordinary soldiers. 如果是正面交战，这500名魔导兵能以1:12，不是1:15的战损比换掉斯力特将军手下的士兵。 Of course, this does not include the group of cavalry in Slit's hands. 3000精骑，包括了2500轻骑兵与500重骑兵。单单是那500名重骑兵一个冲锋就能将己方这1000多人团灭了，更别说还有轻骑兵负责分割战场并且远程骚扰了。 Like Moorman, several other direct blood relatives of the family also have elite private soldiers prepared by the family. Hanging far behind them were the 800 light cavalry and 200 heavy cavalry that Slit had promised, and even the 200 accompanying magisters. Slit also made a double plan. If this group of cheap cannon fodder from the nobles could really rush into Duogu City, then he would let these 1000 cavalry rush in together with the magicians. Soon, Moorman and other magic soldiers saw the shadow of the golden tree that had grown up from a distance, as well as the number of strange stone pillars that were inserted diagonally into the soil in front of the army, the blood stains scattered around the stone pillars, and the There are obvious traces of cremation. "These bloodstains..." A trace of suspicion flashed through Moorman's mind. He suddenly felt a little uneasy and felt that what the old general said made some sense. But the competitive pressure from the family quickly suppressed this he can get the first success in attacking Duogu City this time, then Moorman will be able to get the support and support of more people in the ceremony of the next patriarch. My eldest brother has already started taking action and achieved good results, and he is doing can't continue like this, otherwise the position of parent will never belong to me. But Moorman is not stupid. If he is a brainless noble who can only act domineeringly, he will not get the support of a full 500 magic opened his mouth and ordered his troops: "Belong to the Kasha family, defensive formation, activate the joint shield!" The private soldiers from the Kasha family quickly and faithfully carried out his the safe white light of the ether shield, Moorman squinted at the projection of the golden tree that exuded bright golden light. The magic instrument on his body provided him with a considerable increase in vision, allowing him to discover the golden tree's There were two hard-to-identify black spots in the golden light. Soon the black spots grew bigger, and he looked away and saw that they were not black spots at all, but two giant arrows flying towards here shape and color of the giant arrow combined with the strange group of stone pillars not far from the army made him suddenly understand something. Damn Slit!Old thing!Moorman adjusted his horse as quickly as possible, bursting out with a strong desire to didn't dare to bet on whether the shield of his magic soldiers could withstand the coming attack. A person only lived once. The 500 magic soldiers are gone. Even if they go back and bear the insults of the elders who support their own family, it is better than dying miserably on the battlefield. He had no time to remind the nobles who came with him. When others looked at each other and even prepared to laugh at his escape, the cordial greetings from the golem guards fell on the magic shield jointly released by 500 magic soldiers. The magic shield that could withstand the attack of the epic mage lasted less than 3 seconds in front of a stone arrow. The golden blessing attached to the huge stone arrow destroyed the spell. The thick magic shield shattered like glass. the magic shield shattered, the screams of the magic soldiers also sounded. Nearly 500 of the 20 magic soldiers were lost on the spot. The tough magic heavy armor on their bodies was as ridiculously weak as window paper in front of the stone arrows. "All troops retreat!!!" The voice of Moorman giving the retreat order came out. The magic soldiers in the last row almost stopped when they looked back at their master: Moorman had already run out on horseback, almost 30 meters away. If the magic device on his body hadn't increased the volume of his words, the order to retreat might not have been heard at all. The magic soldiers from the Kasha family immediately turned back and left the battlefield after hearing the order to retreat, but the chaos caused by the stone arrows just now was not limited to the magic soldiers' positions. Even worse than them were the private soldiers of several nobles beside did not open the magic shield, but another solid stone arrow set off a burst of blood mist and panic in the nobles who came to gild also began to issue retreat orders in a panic, but some capable team commanders realized that retreat was not a good idea. These people felt that if all the soldiers present opened their magic shields and retreated in an orderly manner, the survival rate would be greatly improved. So they overran the orders of the nobles and began to command their own soldiers, while the nobles began to become furious, and some soldiers froze in place due to possible punishment from the families behind them. The shortcomings of not having a unified command were exposed in this improvised force. Some people wanted to retreat, while others wanted to build defenses in scene was very chaotic, with shouts and curses everywhere, and there were even emotional soldiers from the two families who started to fight with each other. It wasn't until the second round of volleys from the golem guards took away more lives, tearing their lives apart in front of them, and the blood of their comrades dyed their armor red, that this group of soldiers who were already a ragtag group began to form a loose formation and were defenseless. ran backwards. Some magic soldiers even disliked the fact that the thick armor on their bodies affected their escape speed, so they dragged them while running, abandoning their armor in the true sense. If this unit had a commander with a high prestige and a unified voice, this situation would not happen at , because no one among these nobles was convinced by the other, this led to this ridiculous scene. At least it was a bit funny to Roland, even though he couldn't see the scene.
"Hmph, it's just like the teacher said, they are really a bunch of losers." Slit's student Kalman was now wearing light armor and riding a horse, standing in the lead of the light cavalry at the rear, looking at the distance with a telescope. Condition. The reason why the small scout force could not come back was discovered. Basically, the scout force with less than 50 people could not withstand two rounds of stone arrows and was directly wiped judging from the traces of cremations left on the battlefield, the other side will also send mobile troops out to clean up the survivors. The intelligence did not mention that Dogu City had such a long-range strike force. Even the Holy Empire of France on the other side of Dogu City did not have siege equipment with such a terrifying 'm afraid that the group of dwarves who love tinkering with machinery will have something similar in their hands Thorn should not miss such obvious thought as he squinted his eyes. No, it wasn't that Shadow Thorn missed the is more likely to be a weird thing created by those who call themselves the Golden stared at the projection of the golden tree and thought quickly. But this is not impossible to solve. Although the speed of the stone arrows is fast, the attack frequency is still acceptable. With the speed of the cavalry, they can still break through to the city gate with relatively small the number must be very rare. This is already the fourth round of salvos, and there are still only two stone arrows flying at the same time. That would be even simpler. Let the magicians use long-range spells to resist the stone arrows, and send a mixed force of light and heavy cavalry, followed by infantry. Duogu City is just a small border town. Although you can barely see the crooked earthen city wall, from the perspective of a telescope, the height is not very own light cavalry can easily cross over and massacre civilians in the city to create chaos, leaving the garrison in a state where it is too busy to take care of itself. With this in mind, Kalman ordered the orderlies to raise the flag and command the flag: "All are here, deterrence fire! We can't let these deserters break up our formation!" The messenger waved the flag several times, and the cavalrymen, both light and heavy, took out their gleaming crossbows and fired at the deserters who were retreating towards their own positions. The deserters of the nobles were not fools. When many of them saw the cavalry taking out their crossbows, they realized that they were blocking the opponent's path forward. They cursed and ran in both directions. Behind them are the stone arrows that the golem guards throw up from time to time, and in the direction of their escape are the crossbow arrows driven away by friendly forces. These private soldiers of the nobles are really unlucky. Except for one or two unlucky ones who were killed by the cavalry's deterrent crossbows, most of the noble private soldiers ran to safe positions on both sides. Kalman sent a small group of cavalry to intercept the nobles who escaped the death threat of stone arrows. He looked at Moorman, who was the first to retrieve them, sneered and ordered: "Gather your soldiers, nobles. Let them follow. We charge behind us and learn how to fight, do you understand?" Moorman's face became angry and he was about to retaliate when Kalman pulled out the straight sword from his waist and placed it across his neck. "This is an order, soldier. Don't use your bullshit noble tactics on me. Either charge or die! Make your own choice." Kalman's eyes were as fierce as an eagle's as he looked around at this group of mud-like nobles. Moorman immediately gave up and said humbly: "Okay, okay. The soldiers of the Kasha family are willing to fight for the general." "So are we." "exactly." The other aristocratic children also quickly surrendered when they saw this appearance. "Then move quickly, the enemy's attack will not wait for anyone. If you don't want to be beaten in vain, be quick, otherwise I will deal with it according to military law." Kalman continued to show his power. Driven by the motivation to save their own lives, the group of aristocratic children exerted the greatest strength in their lives to gather the remaining large force was quickly gathered. It's just that compared to the mighty lineup of more than 1000 people just now, there are only seven or eight hundred people left, and only a few of them are wearing complete armor. Under the threat of Kalman, the nobles headed by Moorman asked this group of soldiers to follow the knights and prepare to attack Dogu City. The 800 light cavalrymen began to speed up silently when they came near the remains of the stone arrows, while the 200 heavy cavalrymen spread out and hung behind the light cavalrymen at a moderate speed. Each heavy cavalryman was equipped with two tall the cavalry, 200 magisters who had set up a joint magic circle were chanting in the air, and astonishing ether fluctuations came from the magic circle. After stepping over the remains of the farthest stone arrow, Kalman began to count silently through the telescope, and sure enough, the stone arrow shot towards this side very quickly. "Analyze the material: stone and soil! Recommended interception spell: Disintegration!! The height in front is 500 meters!!! Launch!!!" As the observer in the magician relied on the increase in the magic circle to quickly construct an attack of stone arrows in his brain Tell the teammates in the interception team loudly about the landing point. After hearing the observer's command, the interception team immediately drew magic power from the magic circle, and the chaotic purple ether quickly shot in the direction of the stone arrow. The disintegration technique accurately hit one of the stone arrows. The golden blessing on the stone arrow flashed for a few times before being swallowed up by more purple ether. The soil and stone building the stone arrow turned into dust and quickly dissipated in the other group was also accelerated by the light cavalry. Only two unlucky ones were knocked off their horses near the impact point and were unable to cause as many casualties as before.
After watching this scene, Kalman nodded with satisfaction, it can be done. "The enemy's long-range attack will happen again in five seconds. Observers pay attention to the rhythm!" It was not useless for Kalman to watch the group of noble soldiers die before. At least he figured out the attack frequency of the golem guards about once every five seconds. . "Yes!" The observer saw the black spots on the stone arrows just after he shot back, and started brainstorming again. After the light cavalry charged across 2000 meters, the stone arrow attacks from the golem guards began to heavy cavalry and noble magic soldiers who had been following them also discovered this phenomenon. Are there no arrow reserves?Kalman thought that the terrifying and huge stone arrows were indeed not able to extract a lot of strategic materials in a short period of time. Anyway, we were not far away from Duogu City, so I gave the order for the whole army to charge at full began to wave the flag through the messenger to the troops charging forward. The order to charge at full speed was passed to the front row layer by layer. The light cavalry, which were already very fast, increased their speed again after receiving the order. Even the heavy cavalry that had been hanging in the distance began to move neatly. The other horse started to pick up speed. Only the miserable noble magic soldiers were left trying to keep up with the speed of the cavalry masters with their heavy legs, but they were still pushed further and further away. Section [-]: Countercharge Many ancient cities. Roland, who had just finished lunch and was humming a song to deal with government affairs, found that the golem guard he had summoned began to bend his bow and shoot arrows again. This has almost become a routine operation. During the period from afternoon to evening every day, the two golem guards will automatically clean up the approaching Roland will send out the Homeless Knights to clean up the battlefield and check if there are any fish that have slipped through the net. There will always be one or two lucky people who survive the attack of stone arrows, and the captured prisoners gradually fill the vacancies in the dark dungeon room. The prisoners were treated well, and Roland had no habit of abusing the the dungeon is very close to the shadow of the golden tree in the city lord's palace, it can't feel the chill of winter. Except for the weird smell, the entire dungeon was warm and there were no small things like rats, cockroaches or winged hybrids sent by Roland cleaned everything up. In addition to being stripped of all armor, clothes, and weapons, the prisoners were put on modern-style prison uniforms that Roland exchanged and purchased from the system wooden bed for sleeping was covered with a soft quilt and pillow, and the mobile wooden box for excretion was also covered with a for the food, it was a little bit worse. There was nothing fishy, but it was clean and hot food. Because he had been tricked by Elizabeth, Roland knew that this ordinary prison was unable to imprison a powerful , in addition to adding an appropriate amount of hypnotic oil to the food for three meals a day, he also deliberately let the branches of the golden tree project onto these captives, constantly absorbing magic power from these captives, and keeping their mental state depressed. . In this kind of living environment that can be said to be better than that of the slums in their own country, the prisoners who were imprisoned were nervous, worried and resistant at the beginning, but now they are somewhat relaxed. There is no way, people are sucked by the golden tree's magic power all day long, and they are exhausted every day, doing nothing but lying on the bed. Irelia is now lying on the hard wooden bed like a salted fish. It has been the third day since she entered the kept watching his familiar colleagues being arrested, or people from Charles's empire being arrested. Especially after seeing the high-spirited Lucia and Lamia in the alliance being imprisoned in the dungeon with mutilated bodies, Irelia's thoughts of escaping were completely extinguished. Just when Irelia finished her lunch and went back to bed, ready to continue being a salted fish to be slaughtered, she suddenly noticed that the dungeon began to shake slightly, and some soil fell from the ceiling of the dungeon, falling on her No cleansing makes hair look greasy. How is this going?The prisoners, including Irelia, subconsciously straightened up and pricked their ears. The source of the shock was naturally the two golem the light cavalry of the Charles Empire rushed into Dogu City 3000 meters away, they stopped drawing their bows and switched their action golem guards unanimously put the golem's big bow back behind their backs, and held the slow-moving golem halberd tightly in their huge palms made of mudstone. Then he burst into the direction of Charles's imperial cavalry and stepped at an astonishing speed. The heavy but fast pace was like a giant staring at its prey. Every step he took caused shocks in Duogu City. Unlike in the game where players continue to attack in the same way even when they touch their feet, the golem guards in reality have their own standards of all, they are there to guard various fortresses. The relatively silly action mode in the game can only be said to be for the player's experience. The old thief Miyazaki has been merciful in many places in the game "Elden Ring" compared to his other games. The abnormal performance of the golem guards was naturally noticed by Roland. The enemies that could usually be solved with bows and arrows now let the golem guards take the initiative. Roland immediately summoned all the summons he could fight and came to another city wall.
There are 4 Grek knights, 20 Grek soldiers and 60 winged hybrids. The temporarily recruited soldiers in the city sent 5 winged hybrids to patrol the city to maintain order. The movement of the soldiers gathering together and the exaggerated posture of the golem guards naturally made the residents of Dogu City realize that war might really befall them, and began to call their families that were opening also closed their doors one after another. The store managers and clerks stayed indoors uneasily, praying that they would not be hit by inexplicable attacks amid the shock caused by the golem guards. When Roland led the soldiers to the city head, he found that two homeless knights, White and Fazhuang, were already waiting for Roland with the exiled soldiers in formation. Roland felt something was wrong when he arrived at the top of the city. The shaking on the ground was obviously not caused by the golem guards climbed onto the low earth wall, and a few thousand meters away there was a moving "wall" running toward Duogu City. [Good boy, the cavalry the Charles Empire think so highly of you? 】The system complained loudly.
