One thousand three hundred seventy-six chapters despair-2
We have been online for more than 20 hours continuously. Many players have gone offline to take a break. Taking a good rest is for better fighting and to survive in this new field. But it is too difficult for us to survive now.
.
…
I sat lonely in a chair among the weeds. Lin Wan'er lay on my lap and said with a smile: "Don't be too stressed. You tried your best. Even if we really can't get out of here, it won't matter."
your fault."
"If I really can't get out, it must be my fault."
Looking down at the ants crawling in the grass, I said with great melancholy: "Who made me the commander-in-chief of this war? I thought I could retreat bravely and leave the legion system, but I didn't expect that in the end I fought such a failed battle. Even if
Even when we went out, we failed miserably. My only hope now is not to be wiped out by the entire army here. That is the worst and worst outcome."
Wan'er smiled, leaned her face on my knees, and said, "Husband, you are carrying too much."
"Um."
I caressed her long hair and said: "Baby, take Dongcheng, Matcha, Xiaolang and the others offline and take a rest. Sleep for 7 hours before going online again. The Aotian tribe did not counterattack so quickly. They seemed to be waiting.
What, you take some time to rest, and I can take care of things in the ghost town for the time being."
"But you also need to rest!" She pouted and looked at me.
I couldn't help but smile, lowered my head and kissed her on the lips, and said: "Don't forget, your husband is a body of Yang Yan, it doesn't matter if you take a little rest, this is my last battle, I must go all out,
Be good and go!"
"Well, okay then..."
Unhappily, she went to the guild to arrange for everyone to go offline.
There are fewer and fewer players, and soon there are less than 50,000 people online. However, Yan Zhao Wushuang has never been offline. He is getting older and needs more rest, but as a big boss, this uncle insists on not going offline.
.
When Wan'er, Dongcheng, Song Han and other Dragon-Slaying players were offline one by one, two empire generals, Situ Xin and Lin Qiong, came on horseback. After dismounting from their horses, they dismounted and said respectfully: "Your Highness, there is another difficulty."
I said calmly: "Is it a matter of food and grass?"
"Yes."
Situ Xin cupped his fists and said: "The food and grass we carried with us have been exhausted. The horses of the heavy cavalry have not had food for more than a day. The weeds in the ghost town have almost been eaten up. If this continues, we will soon have no cavalry available.
.”
Lin Qiong said: "What's even more frightening is that the soldiers' rations have been exhausted. We are different from the Aotian tribe. They are ferocious and cruel and can eat the corpses of the dead in battle. But we... our military rations have been exhausted. From now on
Starting last night, all rations have been reduced to 30%, and many soldiers are starving. If this continues, they will collapse without a fight!"
I rubbed my groggy eyes and asked, "Is there any other way? Have the war eagle scouts we sent out found any place that can be used as food?"
"No, this area is completely deserted within a hundred miles." Situ Xin gritted his teeth and said, "You can graze cattle in the wilderness, but once our heavy cavalry goes out to herd horses, they may not be able to come back.
The War Eagle Cavalry detectives detected that the Aotian Clan's army is divided into 12 groups, which are camped on all four sides of us, basically besieging us here. Each group has at least 50,000 troops, and any group can attack us.
We pose a lethal threat and we have no way out."
"Oh, I see..." I should have guessed a long time ago that the Aotian clan will not let any of us leave alive. They know that we are the most elite army in the seven northern kingdoms, and letting us go would mean they are letting us go.
Mountain, but if we are all killed here, it will be absolutely beneficial to their northern expedition.
At this moment, a man came over holding a dagger, wearing the first-class official uniform of a monarch, and leading several captains of ten thousand men. It was the Lord of Jiuli City, Duke Zhu Hai.
"Hai Gong, is something wrong?" I asked.
Zhu Hai clasped his fists and said: "Your Highness, Zhu Hai's mission with the army this time was to be responsible for the shortage of food and grass, but he neglected his duty and allowed the three armies to be trapped here and endure hunger. This is Zhu Hai's fault! However, Zhu Hai has
I have a message to tell His Highness."
"Well, what's the news?"
"When we entered this mysterious territory, there were still 5,000 logistics troops in the rear responsible for transporting food and supplies, but they never caught up. According to the report from the War Eagle Cavalry Detective, these 5,000 people had been killed by the Aotian clan, but
Countless amounts of food, grass, and ordnance are still stranded in the valley at the entrance. As long as we can retrieve this food and grass, it should be enough to feed the 300,000-strong army for half a month."
Zhu Hai clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, please give me 50,000 troops. Zhu Hai is willing to personally lead his army to fight out and take back our food and grass!"
I was stunned: "This..."
Situ Xin said: "Your Highness, there is no room for hesitation. Today the former army has begun killing horses for meat. Many wounded soldiers need to be fed. If this continues, I am afraid our entire army will be destroyed here."
Zhu Hai looked at me and said: "I know your Highness's worries, so I will only take 30,000 forbidden troops out of the city at night, and promise to get the food and grass back before sunrise tomorrow. Your Highness, you can't hesitate any longer!"
I looked at Yan Zhao Wushuang: "Uncle, what do you think?"
Yan Zhao Wushuang nodded: "Is this a solution? Let's do this. After they leave the city, I will gather as many cavalry combat players in the city as there are. Let's go out of the city and go south to attract the attention of the Aotian clan. This way
After Zhu Hai leads the imperial army out of the city, he may be able to successfully get the food and grass back."
"Well, that's all we can do."
…
The troops were divided into two groups. Zhu Hai led 3,000 heavy cavalry of the Forbidden Army out of the north gate at night, while Yan Zhao Wushuang led 2,000 elite cavalry warriors among the players out of the south gate and headed straight for the Aotian Clan military camp in the distance.
I'm sitting in a ghost town and haven't gone anywhere. We need a backbone here.
Carrying a long sword and walking on the street, there were the sounds of wounded soldiers everywhere. Many people died of their injuries one after another. There were fewer and fewer of our people, and more and more heavy cavalry were slaughtering them with tears.
Your own war horses must be killed and divided into meat, otherwise more people will starve to death. Some people even dig into the ground to find food, and boil rats, earthworms, etc. into a pot of porridge to share. It is very sad to see it.
.
A young heavy cavalryman of the Royal Guards was holding a bowl of horse meat with tears in his eyes. This horse meat was his war horse. From now on, he was just an infantryman. There was indescribable sadness in his eyes.
I couldn't help but be moved and lowered my head.
Jingyin followed me, walked up and held my hand: "Your Highness, are you okay?"
I turned around to look at her, smiled and said, "It's okay."
I know that this NPC Royal Forest Army Captain MM actually loves me, but...it doesn't seem to be good. There is no result between the player and the NPC at all.
Jingyin pursed her red lips and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to blame yourself. We have followed His Highness in all the wars and have never regretted it. Death on the battlefield is the fate of a soldier."
I looked at her beautiful face, couldn't help but turn around, held her face with my hands, and said with a smile: "But you still have a better future, you shouldn't die here in vain, you are not married yet...
"
Jingyin's face turned red: "I only wish to follow His Highness and never marry."
"Silly girl, what are you talking about? I don't belong here, and you don't belong to me either. You still have a long way to go in life!"
"Yes, Your Highness..."
…
More than two hours later, the team of cavalry combat players led by Yan Zhao Wushuang came back. They were just luring the enemy, so there was no damage. There was a chaotic sound in the distance. About 100,000 giant warriors from the Aotian tribe were three miles away from the city, making a noise.
Then they retreated, as if they had no intention of attacking the city at night.
Soon, it was dawn.
A ray of rising sun pierced the clouds. I stood on the north wall and looked into the distance, but there was no news.
"Is the War Eagle Cavalry back?" I asked.
Jingyin shook his head: "No, Your Highness..."
I felt very uneasy: "There is no news at all from Zhu Hai, what is going on..."
Han Yuan said: "Would you like...the general to lead the heavy cavalry of the Royal Forest Army out of the city to respond?"
"No."
I waved my hand: "If Zhu Hai's army can't rush out, then no matter how many people go, it will be in vain. Don't waste the strength of the Royal Forest Army in vain."
Xiao Li said: "Your Highness, instead of being besieged here, it is better for us to fight our way out, anywhere in the four directions, southeast, northwest, etc. It is worse than waiting to die here."
I smiled bitterly: "The Aotian clan is waiting for us to break out of the city. Their total military strength is now greater than ours, and their individual combat effectiveness is more than ten times ours. Xiao Li, do you think we can break through?"
Xiao Li looked helpless: "Probably...not possible..."
At this moment, suddenly a War Eagle Cavalry flew over from the air. The War Eagle seemed to be injured and fell crookedly on the city wall. The soldier stood up with blood on his face and said: "Your Highness, the 3W Forbidden Army led by Haigong
We were ambushed in the valley, probably... probably no one could escape..."
"How many troops do they have?" I asked.
"At least a hundred thousand people!"
Situ Xin raised the steel knife beside him, his face pale: "Your Highness, those 30,000 forbidden troops belong to me...I beg your Highness to send reinforcements immediately, they can't die in vain!"
Lin Qiong also clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, the general is willing to lead the cavalry to break out for reinforcements!"
I remained silent and asked War Eagle Cavalry Detective: "What other troops are there in the north?"
"There are still 5,000 Aotian Clan troops in the northeast corner, and there are 5,000 troops in the northwest corner. They are all standing still."
I raised my head and took a breath, speechless and choked.
"Your Highness, send troops!"
Situ Xin, Lin Qiong, and Han Yuan knelt on the ground together.
Yan Zhao Wushuang looked embarrassed: "What to do... they... they all want to go for reinforcements!"
Jingyin clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, if we don't go out of the city for reinforcements, I'm afraid the morale of the army will be chilled!"
Everyone looked at me, waiting for my order.
…
After a while, I lowered my head and looked at everyone, and said calmly: "Send the order, close the city gate tightly, and no one is allowed to leave the city!"
My heart felt stinging, Zhu Hai, I really feel sorry for you this time.
