Chapter 708: A Ruthless Man

On the west side of Longyu, heavy snow fell.

The Qianli Mingyue horse under his crotch snorted from time to time, as if responding to the freezing weather, and behind him were 20,000 capable Longyu warriors. Carrying all kinds of supplies, as well as hanging spears and shields, in the snow curtain, they are connected for several miles, just walking in a field of ice and snow.

"Ho Ho~~~"

Above the head, giant dragons passed by, dragging heavy artillery and wooden boxes full of shells just below the dragon claws. The dragon transport team had already passed by ahead of schedule, and our group arrived at the border about an hour later. For me, this sss-level mainline task is no longer as simple as killing monsters, but a command and tempering. As a member of the upper echelon of Longyu, this is probably what I will have to undertake in the future.

...

Time passed bit by bit, half an hour later, after leaving the snowy area, the sky immediately cleared up, 20,000 cavalry began to gallop across the plain, stirring up dust all over the sky, and just half an hour later, On the big map, we have reached the edge of the Longyu map, just ahead, there is a pattern of two crossed swords on the big map, showing that a war is taking place here.

Wolf's Claw Valley, here we come.

On this map, the boundary between the Dragon Domain and the Centaur Tribe is a river valley, which divides the big map into two, and the Wolf's Claw Valley is the narrow and long area of ​​this river valley. The garrisons of both sides are quite close and have not yet entered the Wolf's Claw River Valley. You can see another garrison of Longyu on the highland plain.

"Tu Tuk Tuk~~~"

Amidst the sound of horseshoes, two soldiers holding the battle flag of Longyu came galloping around Locke.

"Master July Fire!"

Lockyd was quite polite, and said: "This time, Master Yunyue has named you as the supreme commander of the border battlefield, and the subordinates will definitely cooperate with your command with all their strength!"

"Thank you!"

I nodded, and said: "Let's send an order to set up camp. The two legions of Longyu merged together and set up camp on the high flat ground. Lord Locke, come with me to inspect the battlefield."

"Yes, do you need to bring the Guards?"

"No, just the two of us."

"yes!"

...

So, a group of Longyu warriors all stayed on the flat ground and set up camp, while I pulled the reins and rushed towards the valley with the Thousand Miles Bright Moon Horse. This savage warrior who is at least three meters tall, even his war horse is bigger than others, and his armor clangs loudly. It is omnipotent, not only responsible for logistics, but also commanding border wars.

It's just that the senior sister obviously trusts me more, so I let him be my adjutant. In the final analysis, although Locke has lived in the human camp for many years, his blood is of the blood of the barbarian race, so it is easy to encounter problems." As a vanguard general, it's okay, but if you want to coordinate the entire battle situation, you seem to have more than enough energy but not enough energy.

Galloping all the way to the front of the valley, with a glance, the valley began to become very "crowded" at this section, with five consecutive hairpin-like sharp bends criss-crossing the ground, forming five sharp riverbanks like wolf claws. It was only one jump away from the opposite bank, which was also the reason for the exchange of fire between the two sides.

Not far away, with a low growl, a centaur warrior with broken braids held a spear in his hand, jumped up, stood on the high ground on the river beach, and growled at us: " Damn humans, get out of the Wolf's Claw Valley, this is not your territory!"

Immediately afterwards, more and more centaur warriors appeared, roaring at us one by one, the veins on their faces burst out, and there was a centaur warrior wearing armor and three silver stars on his shoulders , raised a bloody battle ax in his hand, and roared angrily: "Humans in the Dragon Realm, get out of here immediately, otherwise, our centaur tribe will flatten the river valley and tear your camp to shreds!"

"presumptuous!"

Lockyd shouted in a low voice: "Who are you, dare to talk to people in Longyu like this?"

I frowned, and said, "Lockyd, there's no need to argue with them. It's meaningless. We need to capture the information we need from their language."

"Yes, my lord!"

At this moment, the centaur warrior with the tomahawk in his hand roared ferociously: "Go away!? After the Brigadier General arrives tomorrow, I'm afraid it will be too late for you to leave!"

"That's right!"

A group of centaur warriors raised their war blades together: "We will kill all of you, just wait and see!"

I couldn't help laughing, and after taking another look at the terrain of the Wolf's Claw Valley, I said, "Lockyd, let's go back to the camp."

"Yes, my lord."

On the way back, Lockyd clenched his fist and said: "This group of damned centaurs are not only stupid, but also arrogant. They even want to declare war on our Longyu. Are they tired of living? By the way, they He said that Brigadier General, I don’t know who it is, it seems that there will be movement in the centaur tribe tomorrow.”

"not necessarily."

I shake my head.

"Oh? My lord, what do you mean?" Locke was surprised.

I analyzed slowly: "Even if these people in the centaur tribe are stupid, it is impossible to tell us the military situation directly? No matter how stupid they are, they can't be so stupid. I think the reason why they said that It just wants us to slack off, thinking that they will attack tomorrow and we can have a good night's rest tonight, but in fact, there is a high probability that they will attack aggressively tonight."

"scare?"

Lockyde was taken aback, his brows were furrowed and he said, "My lord, what you said really seems to be the case. What should we do?"

"Respond immediately, let everyone eat and drink enough, and set up an ambush in the mountains on both sides of the valley as soon as it gets dark, open the net and wait for them, kill as many as they come, and leave no one behind!"

"But……"

Lockyd frowned and said: "There are five wolf claws and five shallows in the Wolf's Claw Valley. They may all wade through these shallows. Our force is only 30,000, and there is no way to fight against the five wolf claws." There are heavy soldiers ambushing on both sides of the army?"

"Just ambush the one in the middle."

I looked at him helplessly: "I just observed that the slope of the four wolf claw valleys on both sides is too high, and the soldiers of the centaur tribe rely on four hooves, so they can't climb such a steep terrain at all. So they can only attack us at night from the road with a gentle slope in the middle, we just need to ambush here."

"yes!"

Locke seemed a little excited: "What are we going to prepare?"

"It's enough to prepare a little more arrows with inscription patterns. First, bow and arrow cover the kill, and then the iron cavalry charges, pressing every step of the way, so that they can confuse themselves."

"yes!"

...

In the middle of the night, the cold wind howled on both sides of the valley, like ghosts crying and wolves howling.

The night here is not generally cold, but the Longyu warriors ambushing on both sides of the valley remained motionless, with tension and anticipation in their eyes. About half of this group of Longyu warriors had experienced the Battle of the Hedong Corridor , are already considered veterans, but the remaining half are recruits, and this should be their first actual battle.

"Are they coming?" Lockeed asked.

"should be."

I was not sure, so I stood in the wind with a dagger in my hand, turned on the ten-direction steamer, and looked into the distance. There was nothing in the night, and the entire Wolf's Claw Valley was empty.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, finally, the sound of water came from a distance, the sound of the water flow was obviously different, and there was even the sound of horseshoes, which was the sound of centaur warriors walking on the ground.

"coming!"

I smiled slightly, and finally felt relieved. It seems that my previous judgment was correct.

Soon after, figures appeared on the river beach, and then went up the slope. In about three minutes, a neat centaur attack formation appeared in our eyes, and all spearmen walked in the forefront. These spearmen The soldiers are all equipped with armor, and even wear a specially designed breastplate in front of the horse's body, which minimizes the damage suffered by the centaur during the impact, and the spears in their hands are the opponent's nightmare.

For a long time, the centaur tribe has relied on this simple but quite effective equipment and tactics to win victories, so that they annexed the territories of many ethnic groups and became the overlord in the western region of the big map. They are already strong enough to Contended against the human race and the Scarlet Royal Court.

With the hordes of centaur troops entering the valley in front of us, Locke's expression was filled with excitement, and he said: "Good guy, it seems that there are at least 20,000 people here, the guards on the other side of the valley More than half of the army came at once, tsk tsk, do you really want to destroy our Longyu defenders in the first battle?"

As he spoke, he looked at me: "My lord, when shall we do it?"

"Not in a hurry."

I shook my head: "Let's talk about it after you put them all in. When they all come in, Lockyd, you just lead people down and cut off their rear. The rest attack from the two wings, and our people block the front. Encircle them, first let them taste the taste of the inscription arrows, and then kill them in melee, our main goal in this battle is to kill their vital strength, there is no need to show mercy."

"yes!"

A gleam of shock flashed across Locke's eyes, and he said, "Master Yunyue sent you here, it's really wise, but you're really a ruthless person."

I smiled and motioned him to keep his voice down.

...

In front of us, the moonlight fell on the river valley, and a large group of centaur warriors spread out across the entire area. I am afraid that it is a little more terrifying than we imagined. There are at least 30,000 troops. In the back row, a group of centaur soldiers with bows and arrows At the back of the hand, when these archers have all entered the river beach, it also means that they have all entered our ambush.

"Okay, let's get started!"

I glanced at Locke and said with a smile: "It's time for them to tremble when they hear Long Yu's name!"
