A sudden heavy rain delayed the heavy armored infantry vanguard regiment led by Gary Decker halfway.
There is a kind of thick moss all over the highlands of Moyunling. They have reproduced on this land for countless generations. During the dry season, the moss sticks to the ground and turns yellow. When you step on it, fine pieces of dead grass will blow in the wind.
Floating away, like puffs of blue smoke.
But when the rainy season comes, a heavy rain will bring them back to life, and these thick yellow mosses are full of water. When you step on them, you can leave deep footprints on the moss-covered ground. Inside these footprints
It will quickly fill with rainwater.
This kind of mossy ground is not only slippery and slippery, but the accumulated rainwater on the grass will make many shallow pits disappear.
The infantry soldiers wore long leather boots and walked on such a bad road, which greatly slowed down the march. Gary Decker originally planned to reach the mouth of the Mevagissey Gorge before dark, but now he had to find a place
Gaogang, camp and rest for one night.
There was wet mud and water everywhere, and the only advantage of being on a high hill was that there were no puddles filled with rainwater.
The tent set up in such muddy water was also wet. If dry firewood could not be found, the only way to boil the water was to use a magic scroll of fire gathering.
The low roars of evil spirits could be heard from the distant hills.
This time, Kali Deker led 30,000 heavy armored infantry and rushed to the Mevagissi Gorge first. Surdak led the large army to postpone the trip for two days. All the infantry soldiers she brought this time were Surdak.
Almost all of the most elite troops in Lord Ke's army participated in the Battle of Dark Worm Valley in the White Forest Plane.
In addition, Gary Decker also brought over 20,000 ghostly patterned soldier ants and Naomi's Abomination Squadron.
Even though Naomi has only sewn sixty abominations these days, these big guys are covered with runes. Each one is like a small mountain. They lurk day and night with the ghost-patterned soldier ants. They are more powerful than thirty thousand.
The heavy armored infantry regiment had to reach the mouth of the Mevagissi Gorge first.
There is a very open and flat land in this valley, which is connected to the mountains at the southern foot of Moyun Mountains. Therefore, the trees in the mountains here are lush and green, mostly tall cold and white birches. A group of evil ghosts are hiding in this valley, mainly.
It is also to set up a line of defense at the southern entrance of Moyun Ridge and Horsens Mountain.
In addition, in this mountainous dense forest, various vines and bushes grow berries, various mushrooms grow in the mulch on the ground, there are also some small animals and birds unique to the dense forest, and some birch bark
, these can become food for evil spirits.
More than 10,000 evil spirits ran into this canyon and were distributed in the canyon corridor dozens of kilometers long. They did not stay together.
It wasn't until the army of ghost-marked red ants came to the entrance of the canyon that the evil spirits in the canyon became nervous.
This group of ghost-patterned soldier ants is not weaker than the evil ghosts in terms of strength, but their attack methods are relatively simple. However, when they form a square formation with the heavy armored infantry on the battlefield, they can also fight against the evil ghost warriors.
The successive defeats at the mountain pass at the southern foot of Moyun Mountain made these evil spirits no longer arrogant and contemptuous of the Imperial Legion.
This time Gulitem and Naomi followed the ghost-striped red ant army to the entrance of the canyon, and heard the evil spirits in the canyon roaring, as if they were passing messages to each other.
Naomi and her abominations were resting in the dense forest on the hillside to the left of the canyon entrance. The Druids also hid in the dense forest on both sides of the canyon with a large group of ghost-patterned soldier ants.
The two-headed ogre brothers looked at the canyon covered with weeds and asked the magician of the reconnaissance team who was leading the way: "Magic Avide, how long will it take for the vanguard team of Gary Decker to arrive?"
"The news just came, it will be tomorrow afternoon at the earliest." The magician Avid said casually, standing next to the two-headed ogre.
It only took five days for the gash in the space magician's ribs to be completely healed. Now he has followed the two-headed ogre to the battlefield of Mevagissi Gorge, where he is responsible for transmitting information.
After all, there is about to be a big war here. There are nearly 60 magicians in the investigation team scattered in an area of 100 kilometers around the battlefield. Once the evil ghost army rushes in from other places, the magicians in charge of the investigation will be the first to do so.
Time brings the news here.
"Oh, you said there are nearly ten thousand evil spirits hiding in this canyon?" The two-headed ogre stood on the slope and looked around the canyon.
Magician Avid replied:
"If you don't count the evil ghosts who escaped from Nanlu Mountain Pass, the number should be almost the same. Several of our magicians have been tracking this evil ghost army for three days in a row. They entered this canyon only a month ago."
Gulitem and his good brother Naohua looked at each other, and then asked Avid:
"You mean there might be more evil spirits lurking here?"
Aved shook his head and said: "It's hard to say. The woods on the slopes of this canyon are too dense. It's impossible to detect the specific number of the evil ghost army. It may be less than my estimate..."
The two-headed ogre brothers felt that the always serious magician Avid was quite boring, so they stopped chatting with him.
…
In the evening, thousands of evil ghost warriors gathered on the grassland at the entrance of the canyon. They all came from the dense forest deep in the canyon.
The sky was gradually getting dark, and some evil ghost warriors were still appearing one after another in the surrounding dense forest. They came out of the dense forest and gathered together, staring eagerly at the entrance of the canyon.
In the darkness, being watched eagerly by a group of evil ghosts squatting in the grass, the ghost-patterned soldier ants in the dense forest at the entrance of the canyon also crawled out of their caves, revealing their ferocious giant pincers at the edge of the dense forest.
The two-headed ogre did not lead the group of ghost-patterned soldier ants to charge against the evil ghost warriors.
Gary Decker's heavy armored infantry regiment failed to catch up, and the ghost-patterned soldier ants and the evil ghosts here may suffer a lot.
It was getting dark, and Gulitem was betting that these evil ghost warriors would not dare to charge forward.
The previous night battles made these evil spirits mistakenly believe that the heavy armored infantry of the Western Route Army had strong night fighting capabilities...
Now the evil spirits naturally dare not act rashly.
…
Under night, one after another adventure groups arrived at Mevagissi Gorge.
These adventure groups heard that the West Route Army would have a big battle with the Evil Ghost Army here, so they rushed here at a faster pace. Naturally, they hoped that the West Route Army could win on this battlefield after the victory was determined.
Get some benefits.
Speaking of which, the West Route Army has never let these adventure groups down.
The Hays Adventure Group was also among them. These adventure groups camped on a high hill not far outside the canyon.
At first, there were only a few adventure groups gathered together. Before dark, a few more adventure groups came. After dark, even more adventure groups arrived.
In a tent, Kofi sat opposite Captain Hayes and introduced to everyone:
"This time Lord Surdak no longer restricts the entry time of our adventure groups. As long as the West Route Army defeats the evil ghost army from the front, we can enter the canyon and hunt those evil ghost warriors who are alone or injured. Prerequisites
We can't pick them up on the battlefield, even if they are injured evil spirits, as long as they leave the battlefield and enter the dense forest, we can hunt and kill them at will, and no one will care about them."
The captain of an adventure group next to Kofi said worriedly:
"Could this news be false? I heard that Commander Surdak doesn't have a very good temper. If the news is false this time, it might completely anger him. Let's go on."
Kofi was a little anxious: "How could the note sent by Xigna from the military camp be fake?"
Captain Hayes felt that it was pointless to continue arguing like this, so he decided on the spot: "We will wait and see from the edge of the battlefield first, and wait until the evil ghosts are completely defeated by the vanguard group of the West Route Army, and then wait for an opportunity to move."
"clear……"
All members of the adventure group agreed.
"Be more alert when you rest at night..."
Seeing the team members filing out of the tent, Captain Hayes took the trouble to remind everyone.
…
Everyone didn't sleep well that night, including the two-headed ogre brothers. They were always worried that the evil spirits in the grass would suddenly rush out of the canyon.
Finally, in the morning, I saw that the number of evil ghost warriors in the wild grass a few hundred meters away had increased to several thousand. This also frightened the two-headed ogre brothers. They thought that last night, they took advantage of those evil ghosts.
A fight before so many people have gathered may just disperse these evil ghost warriors.
Now that the number of evil spirits has suddenly increased, 20,000 ordinary ghost-striped soldier ants may not be able to defeat them.
We can only confront each other here until the heavy armored infantry regiment arrives...
…
The battle in the canyon was about to break out, but Surdak was still on the grassland two hundred kilometers away, advancing westward with nearly a hundred thousand troops.
If everything goes well on the Kali Decker side, the main force of the Western Route Army will not stop in the Mevagissi Gorge, or even get too close to the battlefield here, and will go directly through the Mevagissi Gorge and Willi
A large meadow between the hills of Agassiz.
However, because there would not be any large-scale battles on this section of the road between the main soldiers of the West Route Army, these adventure groups just smelled the smell and ran to the canyon.
In the early morning, the evil ghost warriors did not immediately launch an attack on the ghost-patterned ant army led by the two-headed ogre.
After the evil spirits quickly gathered, they began to form an attack formation. When everything was ready, they saw a group of abominations made of various limbs stitched together suddenly appeared in the opposite camp. These abominations squeezed out from the dense forest.
, I didn’t feel anything like it at the beginning.
When they lined up a wall with their tall bodies, the evil spirits realized that this group of monsters was not that easy to deal with.
The two-headed ogre brothers waited at the edge of the dense forest all morning.
Finally, more than 8,000 evil ghost warriors gathered in the yellow grass inside the canyon.
These evil ghosts stood densely in a large area, and their roars became shorter and shorter, more urgent, and their voices began to become more passionate...
With a worried look on his face, Gulitem said to his good brother Naohuaer next to him: "If Gary Decker's vanguard group can't come again, we will have to fight from the front for a while. I hope there won't be too many evil spirits in the opposite camp."
Ghost General..."
The two-headed ogre brothers looked worried and at the same time prepared for battle.
"Gulitem, look over there quickly, it's our heavy armored infantry vanguard group..."
The magician Avid stood on a big tree, pointed at the wilderness in the distance and shouted loudly.
Before the words of the magician Avide disappeared, the evil warriors in the grass on the opposite side also discovered the reinforcements here. They finally realized that this battle could not wait any longer. The reinforcements on the opposite side seemed to be stronger than their own.
Much more.
So the evil ghost warriors standing in the front row began to walk quickly, then ran slowly, increasing their speed little by little, and finally took long strides to run.
The armies of both sides were not too far apart originally. The ghost-striped soldier ants were guarding the dense forest on the left side of the canyon entrance. The evil ghost warriors gathered in the grass inside the canyon. The evil ghost warriors took great strides and ran, almost instantly.
He rushed to the front of the dense forest.
The runes on a row of tall, round and clumsy abominations lit up one after another, and then they swung their fat buttocks, swinging their stitched arms and thighs very rhythmically, and rushed towards the evil ghost warriors.
Although they are burning with soul fire, they are a group of puppets who cannot feel any fear.
Under Naomi's control, she ran headlong into those evil ghost warriors. These abominations were constantly exuding corrosive poisonous gas.
The evil ghost warrior waved the war blade in his hand and slashed at Abomination's body. With each additional wound, the poisonous gas under Abomination's feet would become stronger.
And these abominable arms are also extremely powerful. They just wave their huge fists and smash them towards the evil ghost warriors.
The two sides collided for a moment, and the evil ghost warriors were unable to break through the defense line formed by the abominations.
Gary Decker, who was not far away, happened to see this scene and shouted to the tired heavy armored infantry around him: "All infantry soldiers, speed up and prepare to fight!"
A group of infantry soldiers also discovered the battle at the entrance of the canyon in the distance. They took out their weapons and shields and increased the frequency of their steps.
They were wearing heavy and heavy armor, so they couldn't run at full strength on the battlefield. At most, they could only walk faster. A row of heavy armored infantry appeared on a grassy slope in the distance, and they probably didn't notice anything.
When the second row, the third row, and the fourth row appeared one after another, the grassland was filled with people, and the powerful pressure brought by the military formation suddenly spread.
The evil ghost warriors became dizzy and weak in the poisonous swamp of the abominations, and the fat abominations turned into pools of green pus one after another under the attack of the evil ghost warriors.
The ghost-striped soldier ants hiding in the dense forest also rushed out of the forest amidst the whistles of the Druyins.
This was a duel from the front. Not far away, there were many adventure group soldiers watching. When they saw the monster legion of the Western Route Army, they were all shocked at first. Many people had only heard of it.
But I have never seen it before. Now I see giant ants covered in dark red armor rushing into the battlefield, and they all let out loud shouts for a while.
The battlefield suddenly became filled with shouts of killing...
Seeing that the rows of infantry soldiers around him could still maintain their basic formation, Gary Decker immediately mounted his magic-marked warhorse and rushed up with the infantry soldiers.
The heavy armored infantry soldiers were not stupid enough to have to collide with these. Even if the soldiers at the front were holding swords and shields, they had no dangerous thoughts at this time.
They inserted themselves into the gaps in the ghost-patterned soldier ant camp extremely skillfully, and then all the infantry squads dispersed and rushed forward together with the ghost-patterned soldier ants.
With the cover of the ghost-patterned soldier ants, he began to use the Paglio spear to collect the lives of the evil ghost warriors on the battlefield...
As each evil ghost warrior fell down, a large number of ghost-patterned soldier ants were also chopped off by the evil ghost warriors with giant pincers... and their hard skulls were cracked open.
