The chief shaman took over Toulon United at noon the next day.
Twenty Orphan squadron leaders followed Richard Mian down to the tent where the priests were camping. The Divine Comedy Shaman opened a tent like a magic trick, revealing a neat row of giant iron barrels.
These huge iron buckets are so heavy that even the giant elephant Hercules, who always have amazing brute strength, have a little difficulty in carrying them.
All the soldiers of Toulon United opened their mouths wide and looked at these iron barrels in disbelief. Their tongues were as dry as yellow sand and they couldn't help but lick their lips covered with blisters and cracks——
--These giant iron barrels have deer-head-shaped hoses, which usually appear on ale barrels.
When the white water gushes out from the water pipe like a fountain, all the Pige warriors were stunned for a short time, and immediately rushed to the iron bucket in ecstasy. They squeezed their heads in front of the water pipe, and even sprayed on the yellow sand.
Some people reluctantly picked up the water stains on their faces and rubbed them carefully on their faces, enjoying the coolness on them.
"My children, take care of yourself!" Liu Zhenzhen laughed loudly.
The giant five-hundred-gallon bucket is a military product developed by the Emerald Arsenal to deal with the desert war. There is a bronze nameplate on the surface of the iron bucket, with a foaming ale cup embossed on it, proving that it is the work of a gray dwarf blacksmith.
, one hundred cans of water, a full one hundred tons of water storage, which is enough to build a pool, open a bathhouse, and do business.
General Reyes and his staff were completely convinced by the chief shaman. Although they had long heard that Lord Feilengcui was the proud son of the Northeast Province, the pride of Fox Bone City made General Reyes have no respect for this crowned shaman.
He only maintained respect on the surface. This time, General Reyes completely recognized the pride of his hometown. Among them, Liu Zhenshao saved his life and got a lot of bonus points.
.
Liu Zhenshaan was honest and unceremonious, even exempting himself from modesty. He directly took the general position and started giving orders.
It has always been Liu Zhancheng's long-cherished wish to become a general in charge of the army. Although he has little experience, he still can't wait to try it. It just so happens that Feilengcui's Summer Palace Guards are about to be drawn out for training.
Of course, the Pige warriors of Toulon United have no objection. This fellow member is the treasure and pride of the entire Pige tribe. The Pige tribe, which has always been despised by people in the Behemoth Kingdom, especially cherishes this hard-won idol level.
figure.
Although General Reyes and his staff were a little bit dissatisfied, this feeling was suppressed rationally. Since the Divine Comedy Shaman took the commanding position in the tent, a large group of burly followers were like chasing ducks.
, pushed all the guards aside. Although it was a bit illegal for a priest to give orders from the commander-in-chief's position, the priest's level was much higher than those here. More importantly, he was a fellow villager.
The cowardly factor in Fox's character made General Reyes remain silent in front of this Lord of Feilengcui, who was prolific in killing people and had a brilliant record.
After flipping through the officer list and checking the baggage inventory, the chief shaman finally raised his head. His unfathomable sharp eyes and the three medals proving bravery on his chest made the officers sitting silently around him immediately stand up.
He raised his chest.
"Your Excellency General, there is actually something I have wanted to ask you for a long time..." Liu shook his finger at the roof of the tent, and with a smile that was half teasing and half serious, he asked Leye who was sitting below.
General Si: "...Is there an instruction from above to deliberately keep a distance between you and me? Please forgive me for asking, because I have been in the desert with you for so many days, and you and I have never
I said a few words."
General Reyes did not expect the chief shaman to be so direct. He blushed and hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say.
"Your Excellency, General, I'm just kidding..." Liu Zhencheng already knew the answer from the other person's face. He smiled and didn't ask any more questions. He just turned the military map on the table and pushed it to Rayer.
In front of General Si.
"...Let's all discuss the march plan set by the military department first. I have a question for you." Liu Zhenzhen looked around at each officer and knocked on the table.
"Please speak, my majesty." General Reyes asked respectfully.
"The original plan of the Corps Staff was that the distance between the front, middle and rear armies of the entire Corps should be kept thirty miles apart. This is what the chief of staff, General Pinto, said to me personally. I should remember it correctly;
But General Reyes, have you noticed that there is actually no Wolf Cavalry thirty miles behind our forward corps - whether it is standing on the high sand dunes and looking far away, or my air cavalry in the air?
From a bird's eye view, I found that there is no Chinese army following behind us." Liu shook his head and said slowly: "Your Excellency General, maybe I shouldn't make random guesses, but in fact, the entire expeditionary corps has been with us.
We have opened a long distance. There may be some reasons that we don't know, but I think it is simply because of logistical drag, the eradication of bandits and the delay in setting off. It has to be said that the forward army has not been able to do this for a long time.
Tian's marching speed is quite satisfactory. Walking sixty miles a day in the desert should be quite fast."
"Your Majesty, do you mean...we are alone now? Or are we out of touch with the army?" General Reyes' fiery red fox tail swayed back and forth uneasily: "Is it because the legion camp has been connected to the Yale Oasis?
After there were traces of the enemy's appearance, the marching rhythm was readjusted? But in this case, why didn't the military send someone to notify us to rest at the Harvard Oasis for a few days and wait for the Chinese army to catch up?"
"There are air scouts, but the communication is not smooth. The legion's approach is indeed a bit strange. But we don't have to worry so much, because we can't turn back now even if we want to. Let's take the Yale Oasis first!" Liu Zhenshao
He curled his lips and glanced at the officers around him: "Please forgive me for usurping power. The Toulon Regiment and I are both from the Northeast Province. As hometown people, we have the obligation to contribute our own efforts to everyone when the situation is unclear.
Strength, and I also have this confidence. But please rest assured, sir, I will not lead you to death. I, who is affiliated with the expeditionary sacrificial corps, will not compete with you for military glory! If the Toulon unit has room and board now,
If you have any difficulties, please tell me."
"Your Majesty's words are too strong." When General Reyes heard that Liu Zhen said that the central and rear troops had not followed up, he thought about it and suddenly became a little uneasy. If large groups of human bandits follow from
They came from the hinterland of the desert and the Yale Oasis. The forward corps used infantry units to fight against the camel cavalry in the undefeated desert. Two thousand officers and soldiers really didn't know how to die: "Your Majesty, in fact, the sacrificial priests accompanying the army are used as staff.
, is also our consistent tradition in Beamon. Your Majesty, I have heard of your glorious achievements for a long time. It is Reyes’ honor to step into the rhythm of war under your guidance. Regarding the follow-up of the Chinese army, our air scouts
The hippogryph knights will come every two days, so we can just ask them then."
"Why do you care so much? In three days, our own air knights will intervene in comprehensive reconnaissance." Liu Zhensha laughed and said: "Let's explore the situation in the entire Yale Oasis first. As for the legion, don't worry about it. Wait until they contact us.
Say it again."
"Your Majesty, actually I have had this idea for a long time, but all the Sky Knights of this headquarters are under your command. Without your instructions, I dare not transfer them beyond my authority." General Reyes also smiled.
"Actually, as long as there is enough clean water, our Toulon team will be no less than the Whip of the God of War! How difficult is it to win the Yale Oasis!" Orephin Squadron Leaders are not that fussy. For a hero level
They felt that it was quite honorable for them to have a priest come to command them: "Your Majesty, we are very much looking forward to seeing who is more powerful in the Yale Oasis and the desert bandits under your command!"
"Since we all come from the same province, I won't say any polite words. From now on, I will find a way to provide all the clean water, but everyone must listen to my instructions!" Liu Zhenzhen put down his porcupine skin.
Guan Diang smoothed his long punk hair: "After we capture the Yale Oasis and join the army, all deployments will still be returned to General Reyes. Anyone who has any opinions can raise it now."
No one has any objections. Even if they have objections, they are afraid of running out of water. No one wants to live another day without water in the desert.
"Every soldier is informed that when camping every night, he first builds a high slope with sand and puts his legs up on the sand slope before going to bed. This can ensure that he will be more energetic the next day." Liu Zhenzhen said of his previous experience.
The old skills of being a scout also came out. At that time, the army was engaged in high-intensity training in the field, and the scouts who did not have enough sleep time would find a tomb anywhere, put their feet on the tomb bag, and sleep head down. This could reduce the risk of heartburn.
load and effectively restore physical strength.
The twenty Orphan squadron captains looked at the Divine Comedy Shaman stupidly, a little confused.
"Did you hear that?" Liu Zhenzhen became angry when he saw their stupid looks and shouted angrily.
"Yes!" A large group of officers all stood up and gave a collective military salute with a "hoorah" sound. The fierce look in Richard's head just broke out in an instant, and even these professional soldiers couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
The arduous trek has finally come to an end.
It is only ten miles away from the Yale Oasis, and the sand dune where the Toulon United team is located can be viewed from a high position with an unobstructed view.
Under the command of the captain, the soldiers all lay down under the sand dunes. The warthog warriors were on the front line, using wooden shields, swords, and spears to protect the porcupine shooters on the left and right flanks. Although they were in a prostrate posture, they could not escape.
They did not enter the battle, but their good military literacy still allowed the elite soldiers to quickly complete basic tactical actions.
"Fuck you, grandma!" Liu Zhenshao stood on the top of the sand dune, his eyes in sunglasses leaning on the eagle-eye telescope, and he kept cursing.
Twenty squadron captains and two wing captains, as well as General Reyes, the top military officer of the forward corps, and Feilengcui's troops all gathered around him, waiting for the chief shaman's words.
The wind was very strong, and with an asthmatic roar, it kicked up gravel like snow particles and slapped people's faces hard. The warriors' shields and rivets on their leather armor made a sound like fried broad beans.
.
Most of the Feilengcui Summer Palace Guards, from mages to priests and followers, have covered themselves with a layer of black hoods. This kind of hood only exposes two eyeballs. If there is an extra guillotine around them, they are basically the same as the executioner.
There is not much difference.
The officers of the Toulon Regiment stood erect and allowed the wind and sand to hit their faces without moving at all, showing their excellent military qualities.
The situation is a bit bad. The desert bandits have clearly discovered that the army of the Behemoth Kingdom has entered the Yale Oasis in Taklamago, which covers an area of about two hectares. A semi-circular soil wall has been built in the front direction. Because
Time was relatively short, and the parapet was built only over three meters high. The weeds and wormwood stalks protruding from the soil proved the poor craftsmanship. The jagged crenellations could be vaguely seen in the wind and sand.
There was a shadow moving.
The sand dune where the forward corps is located is the highest terrain nearby. The area near Yale Oasis is downhill and relatively flat. Large areas of giant cactus are like barnyard grass in a rice field, scattered horizontally and vertically, but dense and dense.
Surrounding the entire oasis for fifty or sixty yards. Each of these giant cactus is about the size of a prick. They lie on the thin layer of soil with severe desertification, and clusters of bright red flowers emerge from the piles of needles.
This oasis is dotted like a hedgehog. The wind swirls the fine sand, swirling around the cactus bushes, forming small twisted tornadoes, and the visibility is very poor.
"These cactus will destroy our offensive formation, fifty yards! Damn the distance, why can't these cactus grow farther away from the oasis!" General Reyes returned the eagle eye telescope to His Majesty Richard.
, muttering in his mouth: "Didn't the battle report say that these obstacles were cleared last year? Why did they appear again only half a year ago? Damn it!"
"How about going around from the side? Go around the wall from the back and attack!" Liu Zhenshao suddenly felt something click under his feet. He moved his feet and saw that there was a huge and broken shell stuck in the sand. Years have passed.
The bright color of the shell has been polished off, but its exquisite threads have not been damaged: "Haha... the changes in the sea, this sentence is really not a lie to me, it seems that this desert was a sea a long time ago!"
"Perhaps, our lives in Behemoth are too short." General Reyes also had a bit of a poet's feelings, and was immediately aroused by this shell hidden under the gravel, a little nostalgic: "
The world is constantly changing. I wonder if our Behemoth Kingdom will turn into a sea in tens of thousands of years? Or a mountain? Or a swamp?"
"Tell me what I just said, how about a roundabout attack?" Liu Zhencheng felt that this was just a broken shell, where did he come from so much knowledge, and was crushed with just one kick.
"It's best not to do this, Your Majesty! Judging from the memorandum submitted to me by the military department, these desert bandits are just like our Wolfe. Each of them has more than two camels, and they are natural cavalry! Although they
They don’t like to be equipped with heavy armor, but their individual combat capabilities are still very strong... Well... This may also be attributed to their Uzi sword... But what I am most worried about is this. How many enemies are there in the Yale Oasis?
I don’t know. Once we outflank and they use a large number of camel cavalry to attack our formation and separate us, the consequences will be disastrous." General Reyes blocked the wind and sand with his hand and looked at the trampled animal.
ancient shells, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Actually, the desert human bandits are very similar to our Behemoth cavalry. They are not good at using crossbows, and they don't like to use long lances. Instead, they like to use swords to fight at close range.
Throwing javelins from a distance is really an advantage against infantry."
"Then wouldn't they be doomed if they encounter heavy cavalry? Haha, I know that these bandit cavalry are not in the habit of fighting head-on. They are very cunning when the wind blows in their direction." Liu Zhanchen pulled the scarf back to his nose to cover it.
Mostly face-shaking.
"If we fight against the heavy cavalry, light cavalry like them will indeed be dead." General Reyes nodded: "As you said, these guys are very cunning. If they escape, the heavy cavalry can't take them down.
I feel that fighting in the desert is very different from fighting in the Danube Wasteland."
"It's different. It's normal to be acclimatized. This is someone else's territory. Strong dragons don't fight local snakes! It's interesting! Desert bandits have always advocated a fighting style of coming and going like the wind. This time they actually held the entire Yale Oasis. It's very disappointing.
People are weird! Do they want to prevent us from occupying the oasis and getting the source of drinking water? Or are they unable to defeat our troops and are holding on? Damn! Is it possible that there is an army of bandits coming?" Liu Zhenzhen guessed for a while and then quickly
Then there was another burst of curses: "What the hell is Fei Ji doing in this bastard desert? The wind has been blowing for three days, and I can't even do aerial reconnaissance! **!"
"Your Majesty, what are we going to do? Are you ready to attack? Our soldiers have been preparing under the sand dunes for a long time!" the squadron leaders started making noises.
"Let's wait until the wind stops." General Reyes squinted his eyes, and the dazzling sunlight shining through the wind and sand in the sky made him dizzy.
"Mom! If the wind doesn't stop, I'm really going to get angry!" Liu shook his eagle-eye telescope in frustration. The sand and dust that Zheng rolled around made all the figures on the wall of clay appear.
Can't see clearly.
I don’t know if his curse really took effect. The new wind and vortex that were still raging suddenly disappeared, just like there was no wind blowing just now. Without the dust covering the sun, the sun became hotter.
, large tracts of yellow sand swept into the air pattered down, like spring rain.
"Damn!" The officers stared blankly at the Divine Comedy Shaman, thinking to themselves that this is too magical, right?
"What a coincidence?" Liu Zhenzhen himself chuckled, turned around and snapped his fingers, waving to the takin warrior Duncan and the two Biao warriors: "You three are preparing to take off, but you are circling in a circle over the Yale Oasis.
A reconnaissance, but don’t fly too low. These bandits are not good at crossbows, but it doesn’t mean they don’t have crossbows. I heard that their imam is also a master of fire magic. I don’t want you to fly back like a barbecue!"
"Your Majesty, are you ready for war?" General Reyes asked a little excitedly. The soldiers under the dunes shook off a layer of yellow sand from their bodies and straightened up.
"Of course we have to fight! This Bird Feather Oasis can hide at most three to four thousand people. Our Behemoth warriors can fight three of them each. How can we beat them?" Liu Zhenzhen winked at Helen: "Dear Lan
Please, please quickly set up a tent and blow the whistle to summon all the newbies from Feilengcui!"
"Don't worry~ Elder Andulan already mobilized last night. I'll go right away." Helen smiled and called on the guards around her to build tents and play with the gold steel teleportation array.
"Wait a minute! Your Majesty, three brave sky knights, wait a minute! Our scouts are here! Let's listen to their report first!" A staff officer grabbed Duncan who was about to take off and pointed at him.
He jumped into the sky and shouted to Liu Zhenzhen.
There are four sky knights passing over the sand dunes in the sky. They are four hippogryphs with black and gray feathers and elk heads. Sitting on the saddles above are the Elf Arrows holding short-horned bows.
hand.
"Damn it, your mother finally showed up! I thought you all hanged yourself. I haven't seen you for a few days!" Liu Zhanzhen resentfully gestured his middle finger to the backs of the four hippogryph cavalry. After all, it was to Feng Mu and Feng Mu.
Magic elves with extraordinary sensory abilities. Although the strong wind just now was not a terrible sandstorm, ordinary aerial knights could not do what the hippogryph knights were, and could still soar leisurely in the sky.
These four hippogryph scouts did not circle and then land to report the situation to the forward corps. Instead, they let out a long series of deer howls, climbed a height, and headed straight for the Yale Oasis.
"Damn, you are trying to show off with authority!" Several Orphan squadron captains immediately cursed.
After the four hippogryph knights arrived in the sky above the Yale Oasis, they circled two or three times. They may have thought that the other party was not good at archery, or they may have been a little numb and careless because they had not encountered any counterattacks for a while, so they all dived down.
altitude and prepare for close range reconnaissance.
Liu Zhenshao knew that he might be spoiled. Since the other party was prepared, there was no reason not to equip a few imams. How could the Sky Knights continue to be so arrogant? To be honest, now Liu Zhenshao didn't think that the other party was a ragtag bandit at all.
Just as Old Liu had worried, a dozen dazzling silver lights suddenly shot out from the treetops of the date palm forest, and two tragic deer howls sounded. Two of the four hippogryph knights were knocked down on the spot.
They were still burned to charcoal on the spot. The two elf knights reacted quickly. When they saw something was wrong, they immediately stood up from the air and slid away sideways. However, their "wind control skills" were obviously not very good.
In this way, after gliding for a certain distance, he landed in the oasis. Liu Zhenzhen saw countless desert men wielding scimitars rushing towards them, and quickly moved away from the camera. There were also two elf knights who had already risen to the level at this time.
After shooting a few arrows out of anger, he immediately turned the hippogryph and headed back.
"My day!" Liu Zhenzhen put down the eagle-eye telescope and smacked his mouth.
Now that the wind has stopped, the field of view is very clear. He just saw clearly that as the four hippogryph knights dived, silvery metal pillars appeared out of thin air in the Yale Oasis, which were seven or eight meters long.
It is one tall and at least two arms thick, and the capital is a prismatic crown tower inlaid with four shining mirrors. It is bright silver and looks a bit like a strange-looking street lamp.
These metal pillars were originally hidden among the palms and date palms behind the soil wall. They were concealed by a large number of camouflage nets filled with branches and leaves. Just after the four hippogryph knights approached, these metal pillars were all removed.
Without the disguise, the dozen or so silver rays of light were emitted from the prismatic crown towers on these silver pillars. Liu Zhenzhen saw someone standing on the crown tower, turning the prisms of the lens as if playing games.
Like heavy machine guns, a network of firepower criss-crossed.
This kind of metal pillar is really weird. It seems to be able to condense the sun's rays in the sky and create a beam of light to attack. According to Liu Zhenhan's visual inspection, the range will not be less than 500 yards.
"What kind of dick thing is this?" Liu Zhencheng closed his eagle glasses with a "snap", turned to General Reyes beside him and said: "Never mind! An hour later, the two regiments spread out in columns and approached.
Go six hundred yards to the oasis and be ready to attack at any time!"
The fierce and heavy horn bugle immediately resounded throughout the sand dunes.
