Chapter 343 Crossing the River
"It's quite bald..." Jesse Ava shrugged. It took less than a minute from the appearance of the orc wolf cavalry to its destruction... Jesse Ava really didn't expect this silent-looking knight commander to kill. It rises so neatly!
The low pressure surrounding the knight commander has not dissipated at this moment, and the whole person looks gloomy and terrifying.
…
"General, what do you mean by this?" Luke Leopold stood on the wall of Lulong Fortress and looked at Renault, who was watching beside him.
"Ha! The chariot people in the East are restless!" Renault sneered and shook his head. He hoped that those chariot people could come to Lulong Fortress. Now Lulong Fortress has added a large number of manpower. After adjusting this There are a total of 1,200 rapid infantry, 400 Battanian archers, 100 Dovinian heavy swordsmen, 300 Crusader archers, 100 Crusader spear and shield soldiers, and 20 Crusader heavy swordsmen stationed in the fortress. Shield bearer and 4 priests! This huge army is enough to give any invader a bloody blow in this fortress...
"With all due respect! Our soldiers can defend the city well, but we will suffer heavy losses in a battle outside the city!" Merck Leopold whispered. His family knows his own affairs. Although there are many soldiers here, their profession The player really doesn't have much, and he will be seriously injured if he fights in the field.
"Our position is to stick to it! Otherwise, why would most of the professional army be assigned to Swift Current City? Not only because of its status as the capital of the kingdom, but also because there is so much plain land that we can only fight in the field!" Apophis Bray Ou Dandan said that as a standard military aristocrat, he possesses the richest military capabilities and foresight of this era. Unlike the court aristocrats who are good at maneuvering, military aristocrats are better at chatting with their fists.
Apophis Breo's analysis was correct. From the beginning, Roland and others had no intention of letting the walls of Rapid City see the enemy! Unlike military fortresses like Lulong Fortress, the defense system of Rapid City is full of loopholes, which requires a lot of time to repair. This is the disadvantage of a new city! So Roland never placed his hope on the city defense of Rapid River City! Anyone who dares to invade the hinterland of the kingdom will suffer a devastating blow! Don’t forget that those Badanian archers can mount their horses, draw their bows, and dismount their horses to draw arrows! The Tuput Forest is already the maximum limit that Roland can tolerate the penetration of foreign enemies. Anyone who dares to go beyond the limit will face a flood of attacks from Lagran's cavalry.
"Are we just going to stand guard like this? Don't we need to send some people back for support?" Merck Leopold looked at Renault and asked anxiously.
"That's enough!" Ormsk's majestic figure flashed out, and he patted Apophis Breo on the shoulder.
"As expected of a man from the Lion of King's Landing, his vision is indeed extraordinary! We just need to be ourselves! The king will take care of matters in the north!" Ormsk said calmly, and then glanced at Merck Leopold. .
"Yes!" Merck Leopold quickly suppressed his anxiety. He knew exactly what Ormsk's appearance meant! The kingdom has delegated power to the south, leaving behind a hero to suppress it, and then prepares to deal with the "guests" from the east.
"Relax! His Highness is more perfect than you and I imagined! He knows what to do! If he needs it, he will tell us! Before that, I hope that each of you can calm down and do your own job! Don't give it to everyone Add to the chaos!" Ormskron shouted at the soldiers surrounding him.
"Here!" the soldiers shouted in unison. For the soldiers, many families were settled in Rapid City, and many soldiers had found their significant other. When the leader faced the risk of war, no one cared. However, Ormsk's reassurance came just in time and did not allow the situation to escalate.
"The water in Flowing City is very deep! The two dragon cavalry generals... Ha!" Ormsk looked at the direction of Flowing City through the distance. He was not worried at all. That one was enough to shock the world. The torrent of the Northland is not given for free! What's more, there are two dragons! Ormsk even believed that the experiences of the northern orcs had not reached the ears of the Dongyi people, because the necks of the Dongyi people were not necessarily harder than those of the orcs!
…
"How...should we get there?" The knight commander fell silent as he looked at the wide, fast-flowing river in front of him.
"How about we make a bamboo raft and transport the armored horses over one by one?" a knight suggested.
"Do you want to listen to what you are talking about? Come! Look at this river! Can a raft cross it? Do you plan to give the monsters in the river a meal?" The knight commander couldn't bear to mention what he had just said. The wise man dragged him to the river bank.
"Look carefully! What kind of raft can hold your plate armor?"
"What should we do?" Several knights gathered around and talked.
"..." The knight commander looked at Jesse Ava, feeling a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong, sir? How can I help?" Jesse Ava watched a group of people walking hesitantly by the river.
"We can't get through it!" the knight commander said distressedly.
"Oh?" Jesse Ava was stunned and then reacted.
"Wait a minute! I'll look for it!" Jesse Ava put his mental power into his space ring and started searching.
"Yes!" Jesse Ava raised the metal ball in his hand and was as happy as a green-skinned mouse.
"What is this?" The corners of the mouths of several onlookers' Swan Knights twitched. They watched Jesse Ava take out this thing from the space ring but didn't know what it was for.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! The great goblin alchemy! No wonder you don't know it!" Jesse Ava shook his head. Now the alchemy in Middle-earth is not only resting on its laurels, but also going backwards... It's not easy for this group of people to recognize it. .
"A simple magic aeroboat! Although it is only suitable for travel and sightseeing, it is not a problem to bring a few people across the river at a time!" Jesse Ava introduced, the magic aeroboat was once a subject of intensive research in goblin alchemy. Some goblins wanted to use this object to compete with the sky knights of various races for air supremacy, but in the end they only made these flashy luxury goods.
"The speed is not very fast, not much faster than walking, but it is better than stability and safety!" Jesse Ava said while releasing magic power to activate its seal inscription.
"Look at the great goblin alchemy technology! Super space compression! You are trustworthy!" Soon a ten-meter-long airship appeared in the open space in front of them. The entire airship was not much different from a small boat with an oval balloon. , only the four floating devices engraved with inscriptions and magic lines on the side can show that this thing seems to have the ability to fly.
"He won't fall!" The knight commander looked at the slender magic airship, and a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"It's okay! It can't fly high! You can't go up if it's twenty meters above the ground!" Jesse Ava patted his chest and said proudly. If he hadn't known that this thing was extremely safe for professionals, would he have dared to let others go up? ?
"Gudong!" The Swan Knights all swallowed their saliva when looking at the simple goblin technology in front of them, and they all resisted this thing that looked like a three-nothing product.
