Just when Tao Xiaowu ran back at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour.
Just under a hill in the wilderness in the lee direction, the miners were camping, lighting bonfires, and preparing to spend the night.
When spending the night in the wilderness, a campfire is the most important thing, not only to resist the coldness of the wilderness at night.
What's more, the blazing bright flame can prevent wild animals from approaching easily.
A total of more than a thousand miners were deceived into the gold mines of Agulhas, but now there are only more than 200 miners left.
They have more than a hundred guns in their hands. Although they are only lances used on horses, they are still a powerful force, enough to fight against any wild beast.
However, at this time, the sky darkened and the wind blew, but for some reason, it made people feel chilly.
The whirlwind that was close to the ground was whirring, turning up small whirlpools, and suddenly it became a strong wind.
This is a wilderness with few trees except for weeds. Once the wind blows, it will be unblocked and extremely powerful.
Even if everyone hid in the lee of the hill, it would be useless. The newly lit bonfire suddenly became flickering.
In the midst of the shaking of the fire shadow, there was the sound of horses neighing, as if war horses were galloping, approaching from all directions.
During the day, we also encountered an attack by Alfred's cavalry.
This made the miners extremely vigilant, and they subconsciously raised their guns.
Although they have just learned how to use guns, at this time, they can only rely on the weapons in their hands to protect themselves!
The dark fog and shadows filled the air, making the surrounding bonfires seem to be shrouded in a layer of gauze, making them blurry and dim, and extremely far away.
Everyone seemed to have fallen into a nightmare, and every move made no sound, just like a pantomime.
It seems like an unreal dream!
A group of soldiers on horseback came over astride their horses, raising their lances.
The bullets flew around in random directions. Although they made no sound, they left circles of ripples in the darkness and shot toward the miners.
After all, these miners have not received any military training, and they have only just learned how to shoot a gun.
In such a dreamlike environment, everything becomes slow and clumsy.
They hurriedly fired back, and most of the bullets flew to nowhere.
Even a few bullets hit the target, but they were useless and could not bring any harm to these cavalry.
"What the hell..."
Seeing these cavalrymen driving their skeleton horses towards them silently, the closer they get, the more clearly they can see that these cavalrymen are also corpses with livid faces!
The miners even trembled involuntarily.
At this moment, they would rather it was all a dream!
Just a nightmare.
Just when all the miners were in despair, suddenly balls of flames emerged from around them.
The wind and fire divine soldiers with flaming bodies appeared and rushed towards the cavalry.
Since Tao Xiaowu left, why didn't he leave protective measures around these miners?
The divine soldiers of wind and fire shuttled between Yin and Yang, leaping and teleporting, appearing and disappearing, and their swords and weapons kept stabbing at the cavalry.
Often when injured by weapons, these cavalrymen would directly turn into fly ash and be blown away without a trace by the wind.
A moment later, such a group of cavalry that appeared out of nowhere was completely wiped out.
And it was only at this time that the miners discovered that none of their many people had been shot.
Even the surrounding war horses were not hit by bullets...
After checking, there weren't even any bullet holes around.
You must know that the cavalry team just now had at least 30 people, firing at the same time from a distance of tens of meters, how could it be possible that no one was hurt?
But at this moment, Tao Xiaowu's figure walked out of the darkness and said calmly: "No need to look for it. Those who were not alive just now, where could the bullets come from?"
"Could it be that those things just now were fake...it was a ghost trying to hit the wall!"
Some miners felt relieved.
Tao Xiaowu smiled coldly, but didn't say much.
If he hadn't been watching secretly, even fake bullets could still hurt people!
"It's just, how come there are demons haunting here...
This space-time copy seems to be getting more and more interesting!
It seems like everything has gathered here in Agulhas!"
The wind seemed to recede slowly, and the originally loose material laws became firm again.
Both spiritual energy and evil spirits have receded again.
It's like the tide is ebbing!
"It seems I don't know much about this world yet!"
Tao Xiaowu said to himself.
The moon has dimmed and moved to the horizon.
Although you can still see clearly that this is a full moon.
Although it hasn't completely become round yet.
But if we use the lunar calendar to calculate, then tonight is either the 12th or the 13th, and at most the moon will be full in two or three days!
"I don't know what will happen on a full moon night?"
Tao Xiaowu murmured to himself.
…
There was nothing to say all night, and it was early the next morning.
Tao Xiaowu then left the group of miners and headed to Zinselka Castle.
There are ghosts and monsters at night, but there should be no such thing during the day!
When Tao Xiaowu arrived at this city at the intersection of three rivers, the entire city was surrounded.
This city was founded by Adelaide colonists and is more of a fortress than a city.
The geographical location is very important, so the city is built very solidly, with tall walls and numerous artillery.
Coupled with the division of the river, it was difficult for the surrounding Alfreds to block the entire Zinselka Castle.
The Adlan people can still continuously send supplies from all over the colony through waterways and land routes.
Therefore, with the war in full swing, Alfred began to sweep away the Adelaide forces in the periphery.
It was precisely because of this that Tao Xiaowu was attacked by that team of cavalry.
"It seems that this war will last for a long time..."
Tao Xiaowu couldn't help but think about it.
Looking at this situation, it will be difficult for both sides to decide the winner in a short period of time.
But the Alfreds will prevail in the end.
There is no doubt about this, because the Alfreds have the most powerful maritime fleet.
As long as they control the sea and prevent the Adelaans from getting supplements from the mainland, the Adelaans will eventually fail.
Because there may be other supplies in the colony, but the military factories and soldiers are not enough!
Colonists usually only carry out various exploitations in the colonies without much construction.
If this long-term war continues, only the Adlanders will lose!
