Volume Four, Section 223, Encounter
.Chapter 223 Encounter
The Azeroth Plain is the territorial junction between the Orc Alliance and the Aolong Empire. Both countries want to take this plain that is conducive to farming, but this is not enough, and it requires a battle of force. For this plain, the two sides launched a battle of more than 200,000 troops. Here, blood makes the land more plump, and the souls of the dead made people who have been here feel a little desolate. Whenever the cool breeze blows the lush weeds and swings slightly, people seem to see the soldiers who are dead in the two countries still fighting selflessly.
"How do you feel?" On the mound, Ye Zhan turned his head and asked Ye Kaihuai beside him.
"The vast plain is suitable for cavalry combat." Ye Kaihuai answered casually as he felt the wind blowing across his cheeks.
Ye Zhan said helplessly: "I didn't ask you this. I asked you if you were moved after seeing this beautiful scenery?"
"Touched?" Ye Kaihuai asked unexpectedly, then looked into the distance, "When the world is vast, seeing the scene in front of me makes me feel insignificant and my heart feels a lot wider. But when I think of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who died in the Aolong Empire buried here, I can't be happy."
"Don't be so sentimental." Ye Zhan patted Ye Kaihuai's shoulder, "I know you are so proud of this time, but if you pretend to be a literary youth in front of me, be careful I will beat you." After that, he waved his fist threateningly.
"Hehe..." Ye Kaihuai smiled and begged for mercy, "Second Uncle, I'm not practicing this. I'll scare Lin Ruoxi and the others when I go back to see them."
"You..." Ye Zhan pointed to Ye Kaihuai with some confusion. "Seriously, tell me Kaihuai, what is your first impression after seeing this plain?"
"... Take this place and cultivate it carefully for a few years. It will be another grain production place for my Aolong Empire." Ye Kaihuai replied seriously.
"Yes, it is precisely because of this that our Aolong Empire must not let go of this place." Ye Zhan nodded in agreement. He then changed the subject and said regretfully: "But the orcs are brave. Although the equipment is relatively simple, they still occupy half of this plain with their bravery."
Seeing this, Ye Kaihuai comforted him: "Second uncle, there is no way to do this. There is no danger here. There is no danger to defend here. The orcs have many night vision capabilities. It is very easy to attract sneak attacks from orcs. They can keep half of the plains without losing. The second uncle has done his best."
"Haha... It would be great if the ministers in the court who had never been on the battlefield were as good as you think." Ye Zhan smiled bitterly. The ministers in the court had been dissatisfied with the military expenditures he had invested in Azes in the past few years. No one would want to do so, but those of them would only talk and blame others, without considering the reasons. If they thought it was wrong, they would impeach. If the old emperor had not suppressed them, his second uncle would have been in the military court for the crime of being unfavorable for combat.
"Forget it, second uncle, that group of people can do nothing except say it, just ignore them. As long as Your Majesty trusts you, it's okay." Ye Kaihuai also knew some of the impeachment of the ministers, but he couldn't help scolding those ministers who were old enough to be his grandfather, so he could only comfort his second uncle.
"Oh~ I won't talk about them anymore. I'll get angry when I talk about them. Say something else, be happy. The clairvoyance in the hands of the scouts you sent out is a good thing. Uncle Second likes it very much. Is it okay to give me 180 of them?"
"...Second uncle, my Qianliyan one is worth one hundred gold coins. You ask me for 180 in one breath. You are really a lion. No." Ye Kaihuai refused directly.
"Don't, you can discuss something. There are not a hundred and eighty, forty or fifty, no, twenty or thirty," Ye Zhan grabbed Ye Kaihuai's reins and said bargainingly.
"No, no. I can see that the second uncle is. You just want to ask for a price everywhere and pay back the money. You can give you one to play, but the others are free of negotiations." Ye Kaihuai said with a firm look on his face.
"I'm so stingy, but my nephew, I'm not obedient at all." Ye Zhan muttered in a low voice.
"Uncle Second, what are you talking about? Besides, this one is gone."
"No, no, just one, but you can't make this thing happily, can you..."
"Uncle Second, I'm still pointing at this thing to make money. You ask me for the method of making this thing. Isn't this cutting off my way to finance it?"
"Oh, I promised you not to tell others anymore."
"No, no, I really can't tell you how to make it, but I can sell it to you, Yes, I can give you a 20% discount to you."
"I want to buy it too, but I don't have money." Ye Zhan cried and said poorly.
"Don't worry about Uncle Second, you will soon be rich. Uncle Second, you forgot what I am here for?" Ye Kaihuai patted Ye Zhan's shoulder unscathed.
"...Boy, it's hard to take advantage of you." Ye Zhan said angrily.
"Hehe..." Ye Kaihuai smiled proudly, raised the Qianli Eye in his hand and looked into the distance. After a look, he said to Ye Zhan without even letting go of Qianli Eye: "Second uncle, a team appeared in front of him, seeing that it was the people of the Tiger Roaring Legion. Let the scouts come up to welcome him, and we are also ready for battle."
"Well? Let's take a look." Ye Zhan reached out and took Qianliyan from Ye Kaihuai's hand, looked in the direction Ye Kaihuai had just looked. He put down Qianliyan and ordered the guards beside him, "Go, ask who they are?"
"Yes." The guard responded loudly and plucked his horse to meet him.
Ye Zhan couldn't put it down and stroked Ye Kaihuai's Qianliyan and said to Ye Kaihuai: "Kaihuai, didn't you just say you wanted to give me a Qianliyan? Just this." After that, he threw Qianliyan to his personal guard and told him to keep it away, and no one else would want it except him. It was as if he was afraid that Ye Kaihuai would not agree.
Ye Kaihuai shook his head helplessly and did not speak. He turned around and told Daen beside him: "I inform everyone to prepare for battle. If the enemy is unknown to us, don't relax your guard."
"Yes, sir." Dane agreed and turned around and arranged.
"Happy, there is no need to be so nervous. How could those people wear the uniforms of the Tiger Roar Legion be enemies?" Ye Zhan said indifferently.
"Uncle Second, be careful, there is no big mistake. This is where the two countries fight. We cannot guarantee that the orcs will not deliberately paralyze us in the uniforms of the Tiger Roar Legion, and then take the opportunity to attack us."
Ye Zhan curled his lips without caring about Ye Kaihuai's explanation. He felt that his nephew was too careful.
However, just like confirming Ye Kaihuai's words, the guard who went to ask about the visitor was suddenly attacked when he was still a hundred meters away from the visitor. Fortunately, the boy was lucky and did not fall off. He ran back like crazy. The attacker may not have thought that the guard was as lucky as the guard. After a brief moment of stunned silence, he gave up his disguise and waved his sword to chase him up.
The sudden change in the situation made Ye Zhan feel a little embarrassed and shouted in shame: "Damn it, the geese were pecked by the geese all day today. I informed him to prepare for the fight."
"Second uncle, it's too late to let your guards disperse to both sides. I'll let the guards who have been prepared fight with the opponent first, and then let the guards scattered to both sides attack the opponent's flanks. Remember that the second uncle, three surrounds and one surrounds, leaving a way out for the opponent."
"Okay." Ye Zhan, who had no time to think about Ye Kaihuai's intention, agreed and went down and ordered, leaving Ye Kaihuai alone on the mound.
The raid was the wolf rider. As the name suggests, the mount of each wolf rider is not a war horse, but a giant wolf as long as two meters long. These wolf riders waved the battle sword in their hands and howled. Although there were only a hundred people, the momentum it created seemed to have the feeling of thousands of troops running towards them together.
Just as the wolf riders thought, the troops attacked by them fled in scattered. The wolf riders led the team smiled proudly and shouted to their subordinates: "Old Rules." After shouting, the wolf riders automatically divided into two teams, chasing Ye Zhan's orders and retreating to both sides.
"Kill~" The shout of killing made the leader wolf rider, who had been chasing the team, feel amazement. At this time, someone dares to resist? Before he could see who was so brave, he saw a team of cavalry appearing on the side of him. Each of them was wearing bright one-piece cavalry armor and holding a thin long sword in his hand, urging the horse to rush towards the back of the wolf rider team, which had not yet been completely separated.
The leader wolf rider immediately felt bad when he saw this formation and said it was too late. Before the leader wolf rider could make a sound reminder, the cavalry led by Dane went deep into it. The bright armor swayed the wolf riders' eyes under the reflection of the sun. Many wolf riders located at the back were chopped off their heads before they could react.
Just like cutting tofu with a hot knife, Dane led the team to pass through the formation. The leader of the wolf cavalry was furious. He had never suffered such a great humiliation in his life and seemed to be confused. He actually ordered his subordinates to give up chasing and killing the defeated soldiers and gathered immediately. He wanted to compete with the human cavalry that brought shame to him.
The two cavalry teams collided fiercely and started a fight. The leader of the wolf cavalry soon realized that his decision just now was very stupid. The other party was wearing armor, and even the horses were wearing vests. He cut the other party a few times, but he didn't have any trouble. When he saw that he had a knife, he immediately stopped. This kind of competition with huge equipment was a loss for the wolf cavalry. What's even more terrible is that the people who escaped just now turned around and killed him again.
Seeing that his subordinates were getting fewer and fewer, the leader wolf cavalry could only give the order to retreat helplessly. Fortunately, the opponent's troops were insufficient and there was no one to defend. The leader wolf cavalry fled in a panic with more than a dozen still alive wolf cavalry.
