Chapter sixty-two, the eve of the war

The answer is certainly no if a person can run a war horse; the answer is uncertain if a person can run a crazy running bull.

The soldiers of the Infantry Regiment of the Principality of Rodan, who were good at escaping, had already taken the escaping posture the moment before they completely collapsed.

In addition, they were wearing light armor and were at the back of the Shenwei Army. The impact they were subjected to was limited, and they did not have any so-called honor for warriors in their hearts. They did not have the spirit of being weapons in their hands, so they fled with light clothes and quickly rushed to the forefront.

Behind them, the Shenwei Army's shield soldiers responsible for resisting in front had almost been lost. The soldiers in heavy armor in the back were still hesitating whether to retreat. When they saw their thousand-time captain Mario retreating under the pull of Barbara, they began to retreat.

But at this time, the group had already rushed up.

At this moment, the impact of these cattle herds had significantly slowed down. After all, after the desperate resistance of the heavy armored soldiers of the Shenwei Army, relying on the corpse that was lodging all over the ground on the mountain road was enough to slow down the cattle herds' pace.

Although this speed does not pose much threat to the soldiers who escaped with light equipment, it is extremely painful for the Shenwei army wearing nearly 40 kilograms of armor.

At this moment, the iron armor that could withstand most crossbows was like a piece of paper in front of the huge impact, and this iron armor that was like a piece of paper dragged them away.

Those with low mental quality were already sitting on the ground, constantly placing crosses on their chests, begging the Lord God to bring down his glory to eliminate these Odin alien bullhead demons; those with high psychological quality were running backwards and crossing their slumped companions.

One after another, the soldiers of the Shenwei Army died on the road of escape. Only then did they realize how precious and calm the escape skills of the Luodan soldiers who had been mocking them were.

Living is the hard truth at this moment, and the so-called bravery suddenly becomes ridiculous.

"Kill" At this moment, the cavalry industry of the Han soldiers had already been killed with the cows. The Luodan soldier who was lucky enough to die, heard this terrifying roar, and even faster escaped.

And the soldiers marching above the hills ran towards the wilderness in the distance without looking back.

If at this time, who could calm down and carefully observe the rear formation of the Han soldiers in the distance, they would find that although there were waves of shouting and dust rolling over there, there were not many cavalrymen who were actually chasing.

But obviously, these soldiers now only regret not having enough time to escape, so they are not in the mood to look back and look back.

"Friends, thank you for your help!" The old Taoist held the hand of a father-in-law in front of him, smiling like a big-tailed wolf.

The old man was originally a clerk of the Mengzhou Prefecture City Guardian. After the Western Allied Forces captured Mengzhou Prefecture, the old man was unwilling to serve the enemy and simply returned to his hometown in the nearby countryside.

Later, he personally organized a team of rebels. Because of his deep reputation and an official, he was elected as the leader. Some Han soldiers who were separated from the large army and the original reserve military and civilians of Mengzhou Prefecture all surrendered to him.

After gathering nearly two thousand people, the rebel army protected the residents of a nearby village and town and hid in the remnants of Songshan Mountain.

In the past few days, the old Taoist Lin Qingping led the Han soldiers here with great fanfare. The old man took the initiative to send someone to contact them and gave them a few plowing oxes to reward the army. As a result, when the old Taoist asked them that there were hundreds of such oxes in the mountains, combined with this narrow terrain, he negotiated with the rebel army and used these plowing ox formations to set up the running ox formations, and then compensated them after they were liberated in the future.

The Resistance Army not only agreed to this request, but also sent people to assist the old Taoist and others in creating momentum in the back formation to confuse the Western coalition forces, which led to the victory of today's battle.

The leader of the rebel army, and the father-in-law of the Simin, who lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests in this area, waved his hands repeatedly and said in a deep voice: "The Taoist priest praised it. Taizu once said, 'Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country.' I was a Han citizen, and I also ate Han millet and served the Han officials. I should serve the empire. And these people, these young generations, are also good men who are unwilling to be enslaved. If the Taoist priest really wants to thank him, he will bring them to the Lord Lei who turned the tide. It is also a little bit of effort that the four people in Mengzhou have done for the empire."

"Please accept a prayer from Qingping, elder!" The old Taoist, who has always been hip-hop, lifted his sleeves and bowed to the ground.

"Please get up, please get up." The old man hurriedly helped him up.

"Elderly, we have a heavy responsibility. Moreover, after this battle, there were only one thousand Luodan soldiers guarding the city in Mengzhou Prefecture. These good men stayed here to restrain them. When our Lei Army returned, we would definitely take them into the army and serve the empire." The old Taoist explained.

"Well, that's fine, then how do you deal with these prisoners?" The old man pointed to the prisoners who had just been escorted back by the Han soldiers who had just been pursued.

In this battle, the Han soldiers captured only more than 500 enemies, and the Western coalition forces of 7,000 were able to escape, but only more than 1,000 people. All the rest died under the hoof of a ox, or were trampled on each other when they fled.

"I heard that life in the mountains is difficult, land needs to be renovated to plant, and fortifications are also built by personnel. The elders can take them back to their strongholds for labor, which can be considered as letting them repay the crimes committed against the soldiers and civilians of our empire." The old Taoist thought for a while.

"Just follow the Taoist priest." The old man nodded.

"Elderly, Qingping still has something to ask for." The old Taoist said again.

"It's okay to talk about it sir." The old man hurriedly said.

"I want to borrow thousands of troops from you to Shitouling to help the Lei Legion defeat the enemy." Lin Qingping said.

"This is OK, but my men and horses are all infantry. Even if there are carriages leading the way, it is difficult to keep up with the marching speed of your cavalry, right? Is it possible to delay the war, and it is more than 200 miles away from Shitou Ridge here, is it too late?" the old man frowned.

"It's okay, I know there is a small road nearby, so you can go straight to Shitou Ridge!" said the old Taoist smiled.

"Xiaolu, don't even know me, a local?" the old man said wonder.

"Well, this is the secret of the empire. I hope the elders will keep it confidential later." The old Taoist hurriedly said.

"I know this, then I will let you take away with you, the two thousand young men, today, with you." The old man nodded.

On the morning of April 14, the capital of the Central and Southern Provinces of the Empire, Zhongdu Longyang, was the General Staff of the Western Allied Forces Central and Southern Provinces.

"It's really defeated..." Als was a little surprised when he looked at the battle report he had sorted out by the staff.

The failures of these Rodan soldiers and the Shenwei Army were within his expected and acceptable range, but the battle report showed that the Han army had more than 3,000 troops. Although they did not hold the banner of the word "Thunder", their combat effectiveness was amazing.

Moreover, the coalition forces that drove the Running Bull Formation to kill and injure did not dispatch the final main force.

Such a result obviously disappointed Aers, who had hoped to see the Shenwei Army and the Han soldiers fighting to defeat each other.

However, it also strengthened his determination to lead troops to the war immediately.

"The command to gather troops and arrive in Mengzhou Prefecture before noon tomorrow. We must intercept this group of Han soldiers!" Als ordered.

"Yes!" Several staff officers hurriedly ran to dispatch and arrange the arrangements.

"Lei Dongfeng, no matter whether you are in the army or not, since you have the ability to consume two thousand Divine Power Army so easily, it means that it must be your main force. I will hurt it and crippled it, and see if you still run away." Als thought to himself.

On April 14, the Imperial Era, the remnants of Shitouling, Songshan, Central and Southern Province.

"The truth is that Rora doesn't know what happened to Rora, right?" Lei Dongfeng said softly to Chuck, looking at Rora sitting in the shade of the distant tree.

"I won't know for the time being, but I think Miss Roland may not have encountered any accidents. After all, that person is the respondent from Longyang's periphery, and everything is just his guess." Zhang Ce comforted.

Yesterday, while Sun Desheng and others were reconnaissing on the periphery, they suddenly discovered a secret sign on the roadside that Roland and others used on weekdays. So Sun Desheng and others contacted a man who came from Longyang according to the sign.

This man was Roland's subordinate in the Golden Desert. This time he accompanied Roland to Longyang, Zhongdu, and was left in a village outside Longyang by Roland, and served as a contact person on the outside with several brothers.

According to regulations, Roland would contact them once every five days, but since Longyang closed down, he had no contact again. He tried to send a few carrier pigeons into the city, but there was no reply.

They were not in a hurry at first, after all, the situation was special, and the Western coalition strengthened control and waited patiently.

However, three days ago, the Western Allied Forces suddenly sent a large number of soldiers to conduct a rigorous search in the towns near Longyang. The man bribed a traitor who defected to the Western Allied Forces. Only then did he know that the Han soldiers had sabotaged the Han soldiers in Longyang City, and Als was ordering people to arrest him.

At this time, the man had realized that something had changed, and that something might have happened to Roland.

The man heard from the traitor that there were Han soldiers moving in the Central and Southern Provinces. He knew that it was probably the team of Han soldiers who had been raided from a long distance as agreed by the previous one, so he left the town overnight to find the army.

In this way, Lei Dongfeng and others finally knew the possible whereabouts of Roland and others who had lost contact for more than a month.

"No matter what, you must find a way to find Roland!" Lei Dongfeng said softly but firmly.

"Brother, Brother Dao quickly sent a letter. They are now in Mengzhou Prefecture and have defeated the Western coalition forces that Mengzhou Prefecture went out of the city to encircle and suppress them. They are trying to arrive at the designated location at noon. It is estimated that Als had already obtained the news through Feige's letter this morning. He should have already sent troops out of Longyang. Longyang is sixty miles away. Als arrived here before 2 pm." Zhang Ce handed a scroll of paper to Lei Dongfeng. It was the latest information he sent after the war between Dao yesterday and sent a team of cavalry to send out the latest information sent.

"Well, is there any news from Jing Mingyang?" Lei Dongfeng asked.

"There has been no news from Mingyang, but unfortunately there is no stronghold here, otherwise Fei Ge could pass a letter." Zhang Ce said.

"Well, in the future, we must build contact points in the main towns in the empire, so as to form the most complete intelligence system." It was from this moment that Lei Dongfeng had the initial idea of ​​building his own intelligence system covering mainland highways. But at this moment, Roland, the best manager of the intelligence organization in his mind, was indecisive and was trapped in Longyang.

"Brother, since the enemy is already terrified, it's time to defeat the enemy." Zhang Ce suddenly laughed.
