Eight hundred and sixteen chapters defeat in the first battle
"brush."
I went online and appeared in the central tent of the Royal Forest Army. There was a roar of people and horses outside. When I walked out, many tents around me had been unplugged. In the distance, Han Yuan was commanding a group of spearmen with a halberd. Before setting off, Han Yuan's weapons were replaced frequently. There was no way around it. The empire's iron smelting level was actually average. Many impurities in the iron ore were not extracted. The level of weapons was much lower than that of players, so swords, guns, swords and halberds often broke. And a brave general like Han Yuan would use whatever he got. Anyway, he was proficient in all kinds of swords, guns and sticks.
"General, you are here."
Han Yuan walked up and reported back: "Most of the troops have arrived at Tianling City. The Emperor has built a high platform outside the city for the Yanlong Army, and the Imperial Forest Army is taking the oath..."
I pursed my lips and said, "Then let's go quickly, don't miss it."
"yes."
…
A group of cavalry mounted their horses one after another and rushed towards Tianling City with me. In the distance, a golden high platform appeared outside the city. Locke, Theodore, Ouen and others were already there. When I took Han Yuan with me , when the four generals of Longzhong arrived, the herald shouted loudly: "General Li, the commander of the Yulin Army, the general of Zhennan, has arrived."
Locke had already stood up: "Now that we are all here, let's get ready."
A group of guards placed the heads of cattle and sheep on the altar, while Locke loudly said something like "The empire will survive by fighting against injustice together" to boost morale. Naturally, it was of no use to a player like me. But Han Yuan, Long Jie and others were still very enthusiastic and even a little excited when they heard it. This oath seemed to have some effect.
The eldest prince Theodore stood up and said a few words.
The second prince Ouen stepped forward and handed the eldest prince Theodore a tiger talisman and a Yuanrong sword that represented military power. He said with a smile: "Brother, you are the marshal of the Yanlong Army and the Yulin Army for this expedition. The Dragon City Army is all controlled by you alone. Since I haven’t received the order to go out, I can only wait in Tianling City for my brother’s triumphant return.”
Theodore smiled, put the tiger charm on his waist, grabbed the marshal's sword with one hand, patted Ouen's shoulder with the other hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, brother, I will definitely return in triumph, taking Luo Lin's head with me." , everything in Tianling City depends on Ouen, you have to work harder to take care of it, don’t be too busy, my brother is still waiting for you to assist me in guarding the empire forever."
Ou En nodded: "Yes, Brother Huang."
It seems that the two brothers are very close, but the undercurrents in this can already be seen. Theodore had already seen some chances of winning when the Imperial Forest Army and the Dragon City Army fought together, so he made a desperate move to ask the Yanlong Army. Going into battle, it can be said that as long as the Yanlong Army returns victorious from this battle, the position of the crown prince will be more stable, and the elders in the court will support Theodore more, and then Ouen can only become his brother's Just a subordinate.
In fact, Owen's idea should be simple, that is, he hopes that this expedition will fail, so Theodore's supporters in the court will instantly decrease a lot. Maybe the old king will change his mind and make Owen the crown prince, and then the next great emperor will Maybe it's Owen.
Thinking about all this makes me feel irritated, so I don’t think about it anymore. What I have to do now is to lead the imperial army to victory. As for who will be the emperor, it actually doesn’t have much to do with me.
…
Theodore held the Yuan Rong sword, pointed the blade straight into the sky, and shouted loudly: "Expeditionary army, set off, for the glory of the empire, for the dignity of mankind, and for our homeland."
These words are very pleasant to hear. Many soldiers join the war just to protect their relatives and homes.
The three armies marched vigorously. A total of 5.10,000 people from the Royal Forest Army participated in the battle, while the Yanlong Army actually had 15,000 people participating in the battle after replenishing its troops. The total number of people has exceeded 20,000. Adding in the 10,000 people from Hanhuang Dragon City, the NPCs alone were There are nearly 220,000 people, plus at least millions of players, well, it is enough for Luo Lin to eat a pot. In the Battle of the Sea of No Return, Luo Lin only dispatched troops and warships, but he did not appear from beginning to end. , this time his lair was attacked, and he couldn't help but show up.
Arriving at Hanhuang Dragon City all the way, 30,000 dragon-slaying troops were already on standby. Lin Wan'er gave an order, and the player team went from Hanhuang Dragon City to the north first. In order to allow the heavy troops to move forward, Liushuang had already left the city. A ramp was built on the city to lead directly to the north, and the densely packed dragon crystal cannons, fire rock cannons, ballistas, etc. above the city were ready and were being transported downwards continuously. I raised my sword to urge the imperial guards to move forward. , In fact, it’s the same even if I’m not here, the four captains of ten thousand are enough to supervise all actions of the Royal Forest Army.
…
People screamed, the temperature dropped sharply by at least 20 degrees after entering the northern border, and snow started to fall everywhere. Fortunately, everyone was prepared. Almost everyone in the Imperial Guard wore cotton-padded clothes under soft armor, leather armor and mail armor. , it does not affect the movements too much, and can keep out the cold, but the war horses seem to be unable to adapt to such an environment. Soon many of them had diarrhea. It seems that our cavalry will be affected to a certain extent here. Fortunately, the player's war horses are not affected. I never have diarrhea and my body is in great shape.
"Be careful, it's a demon hunter."
I looked into the distance and whispered: "Sword and shield men on the edge of the queue, be careful to defend yourself."
A group of warriors from the Barbarian Sword and Shield Battalion protected the outside of the queue. Soon after, iron spears were projected out from the snow forest. The "clang clang" splashed on the heavy shield of the Sword and Shield Battalion, but did not cause any damage. , but a bow and arrow shot by the Royal Forest Army caused a group of demon hunters to howl and die.
Today is different from the past. When we came here, we were tortured miserably by the demon hunters, but this time the mounted archers of the Royal Guards alone were enough to defeat the demon hunters' attack.
Looking at the distance, the formation of the Flame Dragon Army is extremely neat. It is indeed the first ace army in the empire. Players from guilds such as Myth, Judgment, and Famous Families are protecting the Flame Dragon Army. They are all attached to the Flame Dragon Army. Few people are serving in the Yanlong Army, and Fang Geque is the commander of a battalion of the Yanlong Army. He is holding a paper fan and walking in the crowd with a peaceful face. The badge of the battalion commander is stuck on his waist. The painting on the paper is talking about something, and the painting on the paper is riding a white war horse, holding a water god halberd in its hand. The halberd is glowing with luster, making this mythical female player of the first cavalry system more heroic. pressing.
On the other side, many players from the Longxiang Guild also came. They walked silently beside Longxing Tianxia with guns, a pot of wine and iron guns. Ye Lai in the distance joked: "Hey, Xia Yu Legion is directly under the Autumn Harvest Legion. Why did the commander-in-chief come to participate in this event? Xia Yu’s army doesn’t fight strange demons, so go and farm the fields.”
Huaqiang drank a bottle of wine with a helpless look on his face: "I can't earn merit, damn, if you keep talking, I'll reward you with a transparent hole..."
Ye Lai stretched out his hand and waved back: "There are 40,000 elite judges behind me, how dare you beat me, haha, besides, I am now the centurion of a cavalry battalion of the Yanlong Legion, you can't mess with me..."
Hua Qiang poured a pot of wine on his forehead and smiled: "If you don't talk nonsense, you will die."
…
Everyone is very optimistic. It seems that I am the only one among the players who is not very optimistic about this expedition. But thinking about it, I was not like this originally. If the sky falls, there will be tall men like Li Mu and Ran Min to bear it. , What do I have to be afraid of? My current mentality was probably developed after I became the commander of the Royal Forest Army. Naturally, when the burden on my shoulders is heavy, I will not be able to feel free and easy.
Soon after, the army passed through a fertile field in a mighty manner. We have been here before and it is the edge area of the Heroes Cemetery.
"Be careful, there are enemies."
In the distance, a scout roared loudly. Then, before he could run too far, a sharp arrow suddenly pierced his throat. Blood spurted out, and he fell off his horse and died. On the horizon in the distance, a dense group of monsters, demons and demons, appeared. Pyromancer, a level 5 monster with level 154, has terrifying attack power and extraordinary archery skills.
Matcha, who was on the edge of slaying the dragon, immediately held up the Lion King Shield and said loudly: "Raise the shield."
A group of iron blade knights put their shields across their chests. The next moment, the soldiers of the Royal Forest Saber Shield Battalion also raised their shields high to defend themselves. The next moment, a dark cloud seemed to come in the sky. When they got closer, everyone realized that it was a rain of arrows. , the Demon Flame Archer used his height advantage to launch a projectile attack on us.
Arrows continued to splash on the shields, and the players and the Imperial Guards without shields could only endure these attacks. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of people were killed. The Yanlong Army also used shields to defend themselves, but they were still shot. Many soldiers, this is a powerful attack by the alien demon army against us. Theodore held the Yuan Rong sword, his face was filled with anger, and he shouted: "The iron cavalry of the Yanlong Army, charge me and kill these damn aliens." magic."
The next moment, a captain of ten thousand men of the Yanlong Army brandished his long sword and led a dense mass of cavalry to rush out.
I squinted at the battle situation and ordered the imperial guards to stand by.
In the distance, when the Flame Dragon Army cavalry approached the opponent, suddenly a large group of demon flame archers dispersed, and behind them appeared a group of orcs with spears in their hands, animal blood spearmen, and level 4 strange demons. Suddenly I felt a surge in my heart. Block, my God, the alien demon army has begun to use positional warfare tactics to deal with Tianling City. This does not seem to be a good sign.
The next second, the two sides were in contact. The cavalry of the Yanlong Army faced the rain of arrows and attacked the beast-blood spearmen. The cavalry were constantly pierced by spears and sent flying. They howled and struggled, and at the same time they kept slashing and killing the beast-blood spearmen. The two sides were completely exchanging lives, and in the blink of an eye they were a bloody mess. Within a few minutes, the cavalry of 10,000 Yanlong Army finally lost their impact after breaking through 11 layers of spear positions in a row, and each one was picked on the gun. The sword was waiting for death, and the war horses were shot dead by the Demon Flame Archers before they had time to disperse. Not a single one of the ten thousand cavalry regiment was left.
The tactics of the strange demons are very simple. The demon flame arrows are fighting while retreating, shooting continuously, while the beast-blood spearmen are like wedges, preventing the cavalry from rushing in. A fishy wind blows, and the one from the Flame Dragon Legion The only remaining members of the ten-thousand-strong cavalry force were those who were still struggling to die on the tip of the opponent's spear.
The players around him were silent. Theodore, the commander of the Flame Dragon Army and the marshal of this expedition, was also silent, with an extremely ugly look on his face.
…
Han Yuan held up the long sword and said in shock: "Okay... the powerful alien demon, Commander, what should we do? I will command the cavalry to attack."
I said calmly: "Do you want to die?"
"What should we do?" Long Jie asked.
I raised the corner of my mouth and said with a smile: "Simple, let the dragon crystal cannon and fire rock cannon set up a battle. Since these strange demons adopt positional warfare and do not take the initiative to attack, then blast them to pieces."
