Chapter 372 Unstoppable

As soon as he arrived at the front line, Datney became nervous.

The solemn and murderous atmosphere brought by the battlefield was everywhere, making him look around like a conditioned reflex.

The cavalry advocated attacking, and their advantages were long-range raids and charging into battle. They were either attacking or on the way to attack. During the march, all soldiers would get used to looking around.

Like a bird, they would always cover the surrounding environment with their sight.

Datney felt a little heavy.

The front-line prisoner camp was more simple. A circle of wooden fences was built on the top of the mountain, and several animal skin tents were set up inside. The seriously injured were recuperating in the tents, while the slightly injured or ordinary prisoners rested on the spot.

The patrols of the cat people became particularly frequent. Both men and women wore swords and bows on their waists. They were experienced from their cross-defense and control of the terrain.

"Don't look, come and help."

A voice urged.

Datney responded hurriedly.

The one who called him was Banu, who was discovered when he tried to escape from prison by digging a hole.

He lost his left leg, but the Yao people installed a new prosthetic leg for him. The prosthetic leg is made of brass and iron, and its appearance is no different from a normal leg, but it makes a creaking sound when walking.

Banu likes it very much.

He would slap the leg like hitting a weapon, or kick the stone and break a small tree.

"If nothing else, the Yao people's medical methods are really amazing... Although this prosthetic limb can't feel the flesh and blood, it is just as flexible and has stronger combat ability than my original leg."

Datney was very curious and asked why the Yao people installed such a valuable and sophisticated thing for him.

Not long ago, Banu was still a prisoner who was detained in solitary confinement and under special surveillance.

"I made a deal with them."

"You betrayed the Benqi Army?"

"Fuck you! New soldier, watch your words! Although I am not a great man, I am also a veteran who has experienced three wars. Even if I can't win, I will not betray my own people!"

Banu glared at him.

Datney felt a little guilty: "What happened before was an accident... I didn't think of betraying you."

"Forget it, it's all over. You look so cowardly, you don't seem to have the courage to do this."

Banu patted his copper leg, making a clanging sound.

"This leg was earned by me teaching them the written language of the Benqi Army. I used to be a messenger in the military academy... The Yao people really learn things quickly."

He spit: "Stop talking nonsense and appease those guys first."

The so-called guys are the Benqi prisoners in the prisoner-of-war camp.

It is not easy to communicate with them.

At first, Datney suffered a series of setbacks. No one paid attention to him at all, or he was ridiculed.

Later, it was Banu who taught him not to talk to them in public, but to pull them out one by one to chat alone. Otherwise, even if the cavalry wanted to surrender in their hearts, they would not obey openly because of their soldiers' positions.

"We all got here this way."

Banu kicked a stone away: "It's always better if fewer people die. I hope most of them can join us and return to the Benqi Army in the end."

This surprised Datney.

The implication is that Banu has determined that the Benqi Army will definitely lose.

"Isn't that obvious? New soldier, look where we are?"

Datney looked around.

This is a long and narrow cape, with flat and direct sea on both sides. The cape extends all the way to the place where the Benqi Army's kingdom of God descends in front.

"Don't you understand? It seems that you really haven't fought any battles."

Banu waved a branch and said impatiently: "At the beginning of the war, this cape was quickly occupied by our army. Our army has been advancing to the hinterland, and now the position has been lost. It means that our front line has been pushed back, understand?"

Datney was puzzled: "But this does not mean that we have lost, right?"

"The cavalry is good at charging and attacking. Once they are forced to defend, they are already at a complete disadvantage strategically."

Banu told him: "Think about it, when you fight with the enemy, when will you use your fist to protect your head?"

"It doesn't mean that there is no way."

An old cavalry soldier with a bandage on his head joined the discussion: "According to the previous battle situation, two apostles were killed on our side, which means that there are still two apostles who are capable of fighting. If we can use the magic of Lord Neferi to summon the Python of the Ring of Mountains, and then Lord Lumedis leads the main force of the Ash Warriors to break through the defense line, it may be possible to turn the tide of the battle. . "

"Too difficult."

Someone else said: "The Yao tribe is fighting with us, but there is actually only one "joint army" on the front line, and the main "peacekeeping force" has not moved yet... Before I was injured and captured, more than half of the cavalry battalion I was in had been killed, and the follow-up relied on new recruits. A lot of soldiers were lost."

"Their wooden monsters have not been fully deployed, and there are assassins like the one who assassinated Falbert. If there are still a few, the safety of the apostles will also be a problem. Maybe only if Lord Ben shows his divine power can there be a chance to reverse the situation... But the enemy also has gods."

"Maybe we can consider a surprise attack... But the death rate will be very high and the risk is also great."

"What about the sea operation? Is there any chance?"

"Too difficult, there are fish people in the water, and the redskins are very flexible in the water... There is more uncertainty in the sea, and it may even be an area where the Yao tribe has set traps."

...

All the veterans participated in the discussion, and everyone became more and more silent.

Seeing them like this, Dartney also truly realized that the cavalry was indeed trapped in an extremely unfavorable quagmire. The enemy was like an unstoppable beast, just taking a step and rolling towards them.

At this time, a distant horn sounded in the air.

Dartney subconsciously turned his head and saw a huge forelimb stepping on the ground, trampling a bush into the soil. There were columnar lines on the forefoot, which were composed of bamboo men.

Dartney was not unfamiliar with this kind of monster.

A large number of bamboo men could be combined into a giant beast. After being injured, they could quickly disperse, break up into pieces, and flee guerrilla warfare, which gave the cavalry a headache.

But the bamboo beast in front of him was too big. It was like a moving meat mountain bull, with a thick and wide back and a strong torso. Every step made the ground shake slightly.

It just passed by, which made Darnit tremble with fear.

Following the armored giant bull, another bamboo beast that looked like a multi-legged scorpion followed from behind. One after another, the oversized monsters that had never been seen before passed by the prisoner-of-war camp and headed straight for the Benqi Army at the front line.

Datney saw that the faces of the soldiers in the prisoner-of-war camp turned pale.

"It's over, it's all over."

"Their main force has finally arrived. The ones before were not the strongest."

"You must hold on, Lord Neferi and Lord Lumedis..."

"Alas, how the hell do we fight this..."

Datney looked ahead.

The backs and shoulders of those giant bamboo beasts erected bamboo towers, and bamboo birds took off from them. They invaded the territory of the Benqi Army from the air and occupied the airspace.

There were also endless sky lanterns in the back. They were suspended in the air, emitting various colors of fire with different glass covers, and became the signal buoys of the Yao tribe in the air.

Then, neatly arranged strange chariots drove out of the woods.

They have beast heads made of copper or iron, with a lot of white mist coming out of their heads. The iron body is tall and solid, and the towering roof is covered with coarse cloth, so you can't see what's inside. The iron wheels of the chariot rolled over the leaves and soil on the ground, leaving deep ruts.

It was the first time that Datney saw a chariot that was not driven by a mount.

Along with the iron chariot, there was also a group of brown clay warriors. They were tall and calm, with their eyes straight ahead, like a group of emotionless killers.

Datney found the highest position and tried to see what was happening on the front line in the distance.

Because the distance was too far, he could only vaguely see that the bamboo beasts were wreaking havoc and trampling on the battlefield, the bamboo birds were driving away and killing the war birds in the air, and the giant beast cavalry phalanx and the ash warrior column on the ground were collapsing like a tide...

Especially the clay legion before, they appeared like a hot knife cutting cold oil, and there was no power to stop them wherever they went, and the desperately resisting Ben cavalry fell in front of them like wheat.

The chariots finally revealed their true appearance and roared like thunder.

There were tall and gorgeous roses on the chariots.

Purple roses would fire fireworks, and each round of fire accompanied by petals would blow the cavalry in an area into pieces. Roses covered with blood veins would emit red light, shooting down all the surrounding cavalry who could not dodge in time.

Dartney's body trembled when he saw it.

Doctor Funeral Horn was indeed not exaggerating.

When the Yao tribe was ready to end, the war was over.

In the defeated battle line, only one point was still supporting. There was a gray snake lingering around it, and it was still fighting with the powerful Yao tribe, becoming the last bastion guarding the kingdom of God.

It was the apostle Neferi, who was using magic to block the Yao tribe's advance, but the body of the python around the mountain was already riddled with holes.

Dartney only felt sad and heartbroken.

Because behind Neferi, the huge kingdom of the cavalry was rising rapidly into the clouds.

The Ben Cavalry fled.

King Ben abandoned the warriors who were still fighting here, including his trusted apostle Neferi.

Datni had mixed feelings.

He had lost the chance to return to his hometown forever and became a homeless vagrant, just like the other stranded people here.

On the other hand, he was relieved that he would not be treated as a deserter if he went back.

Now, he had to learn to live in this new world.
