Heroes of the Invincible Knight

The north wind kept pouring into the hall of the city lord's mansion from the outside. The wind no longer had a gentle feeling, but it brought the bitterness of the winter wind, and it hurt a little on the face.

The guard wanted to close the gate to block the cold wind, but Rose stopped him, blowing the cold wind, or clearing his mind.

At this time, Ross was digesting a piece of information that bothered him even more. According to the confirmation of the soldiers who sent the message, the four giant dragons had already left on the first day of winter. According to them, the time limit for the golden dragons to fight for mankind It's time for them to go back. Except for Thor's golden dragon Asuo, who was killed on the battlefield with Thor, the other dragons have all left.

"When did they go?"

"It was early this morning."

"That means many soldiers have seen it?"

The person who sent the letter didn't answer, but Ross's question was indeed a question of knowing that the four giant dragons crossed the main city of Dragon's Breath and left in broad daylight. I'm afraid not only the human soldiers saw such a big target, even the orcs should be seen by someone. arrive.

"call!"

Ross let out a sigh of relief, and tried his best to calm himself down. Jinlong's departure was already expected, but he didn't expect the other party to leave so resolutely, without any discussion, and leave in such a swaggering way. some influence.

Fortunately, humans now have other giant dragons, and Li Cha has more dragons under him, and they are much more reliable than those dragon knights in combat.

"Master Li Cha, let the dragons go around the city for a while."

Li Cha's body has recovered in sevens and eighties. Naturally, he will not be absent from this kind of military meeting. He sat side by side with Ross in the main seat of the hall. When he heard the giant dragons of the Golden Dragon Clan leave is without fluctuation.

Ross asked him to send the dragon around the city of Dragon's Breath, and he nodded to the soldiers to announce the existence of the dragon. This kind of thing is just a matter of effort for him.

At this time, in the hall, besides Richard and Rose, there were Natalis and Kexid sitting below, as well as several senior generals from Longxi Pass, and an internal officer from the capital.

However, the successive kings of the Golden Dragon Kingdom were all cunning monarchs. At worst, they were middle-class. It's just a microphone. In front of ordinary nobles, these court officials representing the king are somewhat respectable, but in front of big nobles like Ross and Richard, the court officials can only sit in the bottom seat honestly.

The people with the most right to speak in the entire Longxi Pass are the two on the chief seat. The high-ranking military officers including Li Cha are gathered here today, of course, they are not here to vent their anger on the departure of a few giant dragons. Ross has more important things to arrange.

The more the orcs stopped, the more uneasy Ross felt. The orcs had brought many "surprises" to the human army before, and Ross actually had no idea about keeping the dragon's breath. More careful deployment was necessary.

"The orc army has been sluggish for the past few days, what do you think?"

As soon as Ross asked, the generals in the next seat all showed another look of deep thought. In fact, they were also thinking. As the senior generals of Longxiguan, they were indeed not as optimistic as ordinary soldiers. The cessation of the orcs' actions can be said to be a short-term adjustment after the orcs suffered a loss, but after a long time, they all began to feel that something was wrong.

The millions of troops stopped in front of the dragon's breath pass, did not retreat, and did not attack. The daily consumption of food and grass was astronomical. The orcs did not have the courage to maintain such consumption. They could only be planning bigger actions.

It’s just that I know that the orcs can still rely on the Rising Sun Cult to provide some information about humans, and humans’ understanding of orcs is really smeared. It is almost impossible for humans to have any reliable sources of information on the orcs. There are not enough Information, it is difficult for anyone to accurately judge what the orcs are planning.

"In any case, if the orcs attack again next time, it will definitely be thunderous. We must continue to strengthen our preparations."

Under Rose's glance, a general finally broke the silence and said something nonsense.

Ross nodded noncommittally, and didn't know what he was thinking. The senior generals below, especially the generals of the Western Territory Army, looked like a group of students waiting for the teacher to roll their names in front of Ross. Zai narrowed his eyes slightly. In fact, if Li Cha said something, he would not say anything more than the general just now, and he could only judge that the next offensive of the orcs would be more fierce.

"Master Peggy, what do you think of the upcoming battle?"

As soon as Ross's words fell, a middle-aged man sitting at the bottom was taken aback for a moment. He obviously didn't expect that Ross would call him by name to express his opinion. This white and tender middle-aged man was the internal officer sent by Wangdu to contact Longxiguan That's all, in name it is responsible for liaison and coordination, but in fact it is just a decoration that can't be said.

He is also very clear about his own position, and it is not his turn to comment on military matters, so after the initial surprise, he immediately said:

"Your Majesty asked me to take care of the liaison. The matter of the war can be decided by Lord Ross and Lord Richard. His Majesty has no orders to convey."

Peggy's attitude actually represents the attitude of Rennes. As a king, Rennes delegated the power of command to the frontline generals. He only needs to be responsible for the rear wholeheartedly, commanding the army from thousands of miles away. , people with a little brain can't do it. Peggy here can at most play a coordinating role, not even a supervising army.

"Then can the nobles on the central plain also come under my command?"

"this…"

Peggy didn't keep up with Ross's train of thought. It stands to reason that the coach of Longxiguan can only be in charge of commanding the army at the defense line of Longxiguan, and he must not be able to command the nobles and the kingdom's garrison on the central plain.

However, before Rennes ordered all the noble officials on the Central Great Friend to fully assist the defenders of Dragon's Breath Pass, so Peggy replied after hesitating:

"It should be possible..."

"That doesn't seem to work."

"How about this, Lord Peggy, in the name of His Majesty, ordered the officials and nobles on the western plain to quickly harvest the grain and try to gather the grain as much as possible, not to stay in the villages and castles, and spread hay and fire oil..."

"this?"

It was only now that Peggy realized that Ross was waiting for him here, and in the name of Rennes, he gave orders to the big cities behind the Central Dragon Pass. This was too exciting.

Peggy instinctively wanted to refuse, but Rose immediately said:

"The situation is urgent, Lord Peggy can send a letter to inform His Majesty immediately, but the order must be issued immediately, and the military situation cannot be delayed. If Your Majesty blames it, I will bear it myself."

After listening to Ross, Li Cha also understood Ross's plan. This is the worst plan. After the orcs enter the Dragon's Breath Pass, they will inevitably face a shortage of food and grass. The idea of ​​the orcs is to break into the Dragon's Breath Pass. To rob the grain on the central plain, Rose's idea was to gather the grain together. If the battle was unfavorable, the orcs would not be able to obtain sufficient supplies after breaking through.

Seeing that Peggy was still hesitating, Li Cha simply said:

"If His Majesty blames it, Lord Ross and I will bear it together."

Well, Peggy didn't hesitate much now, the two nodded at the same time, even if Ren had to agree in person, how could he blame him, if these two were together, they could turn around and take down the king.

"Okay, I'll pass the order right away..."

After finishing speaking, Peggy didn't hesitate, and immediately turned around to leave. These internal officials sent by Renn are all decisive, and they are usually a bit unmasculine, but they are not procrastinating when doing things.

East Ridge Front

The continuous rain finally stopped, and the sky cleared up slightly. The continuous precipitation brought not only muddy roads, but also a sudden drop in temperature. Fortunately, the supplies of Longxiguan were well prepared, and the human soldiers were allotted warm clothes At this time, they were all wearing a layer of coat over their armor to resist the howling cold wind.

Taize is leading a few officers to patrol the defense line of Dongling. During the period of regaining the defense line, the human army not only repaired the defense facilities destroyed by the orcs before, but also arranged many defense methods under the command of Tai Ze. Trench traps, barbed wire, and caltrops are so dense that it is unbelievable.

The angles of the bed crossbow and the divine power crossbow are also very tricky, leaving almost no dead angles. This is a line of defense that would give any general a headache when they see it.

But Taize was still not dissatisfied. After wandering around the city wall, he instructed the soldiers around him to strengthen several defensive facilities. This tall barbarian had a more delicate heart than most generals.

"clang!"

"clang!"

"clang!"

Just when Taize was about to continue his inspection, a piercing sound sounded, and when he looked up, he saw thick smoke from more than a dozen watchtowers outside at the same time.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

Intensive dragon roars came from the distant sky at the same time, hundreds of black spots gradually grew larger from the horizon, and the full-scale attack of the orcs began without warning...
