Chapter 45 News of the Enemy's Attack The Little Rhone River is not far from the apartment. The distance between them is only two blocks, and the normal walking distance is about 20 minutes. When my predecessor was still alone, he would often come here to fetch water, or when he was free or in a bad mood, he would come to the Xiaolong River to watch the splashes of water. "The scenery is indeed beautiful." So Shen Mu rode on the white horse that was standard issue to the Holy Tree Cavalry, held the reins, stood on the river bank, and looked at the calm river, which was about 50 meters wide and flowing gently, and felt emotional. There is a platform specially prepared for anglers just under the river bank, which can also be regarded as a viewing platform along the river. Just enough to fetch water. At this time, 30 Swadian recruits had already lined up and walked down. With the sound of splashing water, buckets of river water were poured into the containers, and they were soon filled. However, the river water in the plastic bucket still looks yellowish and turbid, and cannot be drunk directly. This has to do with the fact that there is a lot of dirt inside.
same. It is also closely related to the advent of the undead rules, which polluted everything in the Blue Star world, including the river water. Ordinary people on the blue planet will suffer from vomiting and diarrhea after drinking it. Long-term drinking will cause various diseases, leading to a rapid decline in physical fitness, and even various negative effects leading to death. The only way to solve this problem is to boil water with firewood after returning home. Only water that has been boiled by fire can be drunk normally again. "However, as long as you become a follower of the spirit world creatures, or a professional, you can effectively improve your resistance to the rules of the dead, and there will be no problem drinking the fresh water contaminated by the rules of the dead." Shen Mu also thought of some information he heard when he was a Lone Ranger. Subconsciously, I turned my head and looked to the side. Ten silent Swadian heavy cavalrymen, wearing flat helmets, heavy chain mail, and both their horses and men were equipped with horse and man equipment, were waiting by his side with their lances raised to the sky, looking very majestic. This immediately made Shen Mu smile: "Sir, times have changed!" He liked this joke. Just at this moment, a dialog box suddenly flashed on Shen Mu's retina. [Ding! The temporary task system detected an event! ] [Mission released: Enemy's outpost.] [Task Introduction: Your castle was built on the floor of the apartment, but this also attracted the attention of the bad guy with malicious intentions. Now, he has sent his troops to attack your territory. And the enemy's outpost, in order to grab the credit, can't wait to rush to you first. ] [Quest requirements: Defeat the enemy's outpost. ] [Mission rewards: ① Swadia reputation +1 point; ② Immigration wave (small group) × 1 wave; ③ Light crossbow × 1 unit. 】 It turned out to be another temporary task from the Mount and Blade system. "Enemy, outpost." Shen Mu frowned slightly, and glanced at the two key words in the dialog box, his face became slightly gloomy: "I knew it. I was still in the magic ball modifier at that time, so I didn't notice the invading jackals and wild goblin bandits in time. When I went down, I only defeated them but didn't wipe them out completely. It was like letting the tiger go back to the mountain, leaving trouble behind."
It seems that now he has to bring people back for revenge. and. It is indeed the style of Diesel Company. Only the notorious Diesel Company, which regarded most of Balihe Street as its sphere of influence, was qualified to form a force. The residual memory left by Shen Mu's predecessor was very clear. In Balihe Street, in addition to the once preserved wetland forest park at the junction of the city and the suburbs, there is a lord called Green Leaf Group, which can simply compete with the diesel company by relying on the complex environment. No force can stand in the way of the Diesel Company! Moreover, because of the lesson learned from the Green Leaf Group, starting from a year ago, whenever any mark of the spiritual world appeared in Balihe Street, the Diesel Company would send people to grab it frantically. This is also the reason why the Lone Ranger in Balihe Street is now in a very bad situation and is not strong enough to compete with the diesel company. "In that case." Shen Mu turned his head and looked at the new Swadi soldiers who had finished fetching water. They helped each other and carried containers of water back to the river bank. He shook the reins and ordered, "Go back and prepare for battle." "Yes." The Swadian heavy cavalry responded, shook the reins, and followed Shen Mu's figure. All return to the castle inside the apartment. Shen Mu also noticed that the zigzag staircase not only hindered the enemy's attack time, but also reduced the attack capability of his Swadian troops. Looking at the central corridor to return to the fifth floor, these Swadian heavy cavalry actually needed to dismount and lead their horses and walk slowly. This awkward look made Shen Mu's face look a little ugly. But no way. Shen Mu is currently at an absolute disadvantage in terms of the number of personnel and military strength. If we give up such a complex defensive environment, once we encounter a large number of enemy attacks, we will be in a situation where the ants are biting the elephant to death. Besides, Shen Mu thought that he was not yet an elephant, not even a baby elephant. "We still have to develop." Shen Mu sighed. In the short time that Shen Mu returned. Because the news of the enemy's impending attack was passed on, all the Mount and Blade soldiers took action. In the 10-meter-long corridor in front of the castle hall, 45 Swadian infantrymen have lined up, all holding their spears straight, or slanted. The densely packed spear heads immediately formed a spear square, ready for battle. Inside the castle, there were 10 Swadian recruits who came to the main house of the outpost and guarded the spiral staircase of the tower. The remaining 20 Swadian recruits also gathered in the castle hall, serving as a reserve force in case of any accidents. They would do their best to fill the gaps in the battle formation. But when that time really comes, it must be that the 10 veteran thugs of the Lake Rat Gang and the 25 new members of the Lake Rat Gang will all have problems and will be forced to do nothing. The total number of Lake Rat Gang members has reached 35, and they are all checking the javelins on their backs. The Lake Rat Gang's senior thugs are equipped with 10 harpoons. The new members of the Lake Rat Gang are equipped with 8 harpoons.
They are good at throwing javelins before charging, destroying all the enemy's shields and armor. When even the enemy's formation is broken by the javelins, the Lake Rat Gang members rush in with woodland axes and small-blade axes to fight. Their attack efficiency far exceeds that of the Swadian infantry, the line-carrying troops! Moreover, on the towers and balconies of the castle, while the crossbows were ready, 10 hired crossbowmen led 20 hired sentinels and had already occupied various advantageous shooting positions. Whether it was a war crossbow or a light crossbow, the crossbow string had been pulled and the crossbow arrow was stuck in the shooting slot. Aim those arrows at the entrance of the central corridor, in the direction of the fire door! "However, this time, I won't let those guys escape easily." Shen Mu turned his head and looked at the Swadian heavy cavalry who were already riding on war horses and lined up in two rows in the castle hall, with a smile on his lips. It is his dream to ride heavy cavalry through the corridor! (End of this chapter)
