Qu Datou and countless Middle-earth warriors looked blankly at this group of red-feathered troops who loved to make trouble.
However, there was nothing he could do against this group of red feather troops.
Yesterday afternoon, after the military meeting, Nangong Yan asked Zhao Zian for a handout for training.
Zhao Zian is the chief marching officer of Longyou Road, and his status is equivalent to that of Zhao Shiqu, the chief marching officer of Jiannan Road who died in the battle at Yingzui Cliff nine years ago.
All human and non-human soldiers in the entire Longyou Road, and even in the Beiting Road, were under Zhao Zian's control.
With Zhao Zian's handwriting in hand, Nangong Yan could lead the Red Feather Army in and out of Tianying Pass at will, without the need for Qu Da Tou.
Qu Datou was just like the soldiers in the world. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't take the Women's Army of the Heavenly Girl Kingdom seriously.
At this moment, Qu Datou and other human soldiers were greatly surprised when they saw these girls wearing helmets and crowns sliding down from the rope to the bottom of the cliff with skillful movements.
It can be seen that the strength of these women's arms is very strong, not inferior to that of men, and their movements are extremely fast. They are obviously well-trained.
If they really fight on the battlefield, the combat power of these red feather troops may not be much worse than that of human warriors.
At this moment, a whirring sound came from the mid-air to the east.
Qu Jiuyuan looked back and saw countless winged horses appearing in the mid-air, flying towards him covering the sky and the sun.
The deputy general next to him shouted: "General, look! It's the Pegasus Cavalry Regiment from the Kingdom of Heavenly Lady!"
Qu Jiuyuan said: "I am not blind, I can see!"
The Tianma Cavalry Regiment is extremely large in number. According to the military report reported by Nangong Yan to Zhao Zian, those stationed at Tianying Pass are the vanguard troops of the Tiannu Kingdom.
There are two million infantry, 500,000 cavalry, and 100,000 Pegasus air cavalry.
The Pegasus Air Cavalry has been stationed in a wasteland a hundred miles away from Tianying Pass. Qu Jiuyuan has only heard of its name for a long time, but has never seen it.
He did not expect that Nangong Yan would not only take the infantry soldiers out for field training, but also send out the Pegasus Air Cavalry Corps to seize air supremacy.
The Pegasus Air Cavalry Corps of the Kingdom of Heavenly Lady has a rigorous formation.
It is divided into three flight echelons: upper, middle and lower.
The height difference between each flying echelon is about one hundred feet.
Originally, countless soldiers in the world were looking down at the Red Feather Army hanging down from the cliff. Now all the soldiers are looking up at the Pegasus Cavalry Regiment flying rapidly from the sky.
Qu Jiuyuan squinted his eyes and looked at the equipment of the Pegasus Cavalry Regiment.
On the back of each flying war horse is a female soldier wearing silver armor.
The equipment of these Pegasus cavalry is ridiculously good.
The Pegasus is covered in armor, and the silver armor on the female soldier should also be special, including a face shield.
Each female soldier has a repeating crossbow hanging on her waist and a huge arrow box on her back.
Hanging from the waist is a long knife in a scabbard.
There are three iron rods hanging on the other side, one of which has a sharp spear tip at the front.
Each of the three iron rods is five feet long, and they are also special. They can be quickly twisted together to assemble an iron spear about one foot and five feet in length.
Qu Jiuyuan once danced with the iron spear used by the Red Feather Army of the Heavenly Lady Kingdom, which weighed almost forty kilograms.
It was difficult for ordinary soldiers to dance. Qu Jiuyuan doubted whether these women could dance the spear.
What surprised Qu Jiuyuan the most was that behind each Pegasus cavalry, there were two bamboo baskets made of bamboo strips, one on the left and one on the right hanging on the Pegasus.
I don’t know what is in that bamboo basket.
The advantage of cavalry, whether cavalry on the ground or in the sky, is in charging. Qu Jiuyuan couldn't figure out why there were two large bamboo baskets hung on the back of the Pegasus.
The deputy general said: "The bamboo baskets may contain their daily necessities and food supplies."
Qu Jiuyuan kicked the deputy general unceremoniously and said: "Fighting on the battlefield requires flexibility. Who would hang the baggage on the horse's back if nothing happens?"
Qu Jiuyuan felt that the contents of the two bamboo baskets on Pegasus's back must be quite extraordinary.
Of course it's not simple.
Her Majesty She is not only wise, but she is also a ruthless person.
She knew that only in this way could the black gunpowder secretly prepared and refined by the Kingdom of Heavenly Lady be brought into full play.
The two bamboo baskets behind each Pegasus contain black gunpowder.
There are three explosive bags in a bamboo basket, and each Pegasus carries six explosive bags. In order to prevent moisture, each explosive bag is wrapped in oil paper several times.
According to Her Majesty She's ideas and the targeted training over the years.
When these Pegasus warriors fly above the enemy, they just need to light the explosive package and throw it from mid-air, and it will explode into a large piece. The power is no worse than the cans of powerful flaming oil that the Skybat Legion threw into the enemy camp.
Qu Jiuyuan looked at the 100,000 Pegasus troops flying overhead with envy.
It is not that there are no air combat cavalry in the world, but all the air combat cavalry in the world are concentrated in the Southern Xinjiang Dragoon Legion and the Northern Xinjiang Flying Feather Legion. The humans in Middle-earth do not have air combat cavalry.
Therefore, when Qu Jiuyuan saw the huge number of air combat teams in Tiannu Kingdom, his mouth almost watered.
From morning to noon, the Red Feather Army had been leaving the customs. After forming a formation of 100,000 people, the vanguard army began to advance toward the northwest. The red feather troops who had left the customs behind them were still gathering.
Afternoon, Longbei Mountain.
Ye Xiaochuan was drinking wine on the top of the mountain as usual.
At the foot of the mountain, Master Xu was still teaching those children to read.
Suddenly, a large number of empty riders appeared in the southern sky.
This scene attracted the attention of countless people in Longmen Ancient City.
When they saw countless winged Pegasus appearing in the sky, many people exclaimed, and some even said that the celestial army was coming.
Of course Ye Xiaochuan knew that this was not the Six-Winged Legion of Heaven, but the Pegasus Troops of the Heavenly Lady Kingdom.
Wang Keke and others appeared behind Ye Xiaochuan, standing on the top of the mountain and curiously looking at the Pegasus cavalry covering the sky.
Long Tianshan said: "Where is this army?
Could it be that he is really an enemy of heaven?"
Ye Xiaochuan slowly shook his head and said: "No, this is the Tianma troops of the Tiannu Kingdom. The general at the head is named Nangong Yan. I have met her several times."
"The Pegasus troops of Kunlun Wonderland Tiannu Kingdom?
Didn’t I hear that Zhao Zian placed all the Red Feather Army of Tiannu Kingdom on the front line of Tianying Pass? Why did they escape outside the Great Wall?"
Wang Keke is very well-informed and knows very well about the major and minor events in the world today. He was also very surprised to see the Red Feather Army that was supposed to be stationed at Tianying Pass appear here.
Ye Xiaochuan focused his eyes on the southeast horizon and said: "These Pegasus troops are not the only ones running outside the Great Wall. A huge army is coming here from the southeast."
Sure enough, not long after, a thin line appeared on the southeastern horizon.
This line quickly enlarged, and when they reached Longbei Mountain more than ten miles away, everyone could see clearly that it was the dust and smoke that rolled up on the desert during the rapid march of the army.
After the Pegasus troops circled above Longbei Mountain for a while, Nangong Yan sent many Pegasus cavalry to spread in all directions, but the main force did not leave, but fell to the south of Longbei Mountain.
Nangong Yan even led dozens of Red Feather Army generals to land on the top of Longbei Mountain.
