Ride and Cut

There are two gaps that Alpine Fort took over, one is "Goliath" they have fought with Tiger Spirit and they are familiar with it, and the other is "Typhon".

The distance between them is not too far, about twenty miles. A normal march would take hours, but flying would take less than a quarter of an hour.

Before allocating the manpower, the lord stepped on both sides of the flying sword to inspect the field.

Goliath's terrain is narrow and not suitable for heavy cavalry combat. Last time, there was basically no room for the Skaar to play. On the inside of Typhon's Gap, there is a relatively flat open area, enough to accommodate a dozen ground dragons advancing side by side.

In this situation, it is not appropriate to engage in egalitarianism and eat from the same pot.

Li Cha left all the Sherpas and ground dragon cavalry in the Typhon Gap, plus half of the infantry, archers, and shamans, and handed them over to Dracula to take command.

In fact, considering Dracula's current state of mind, it would be a joke to say that the lord is very relieved. But there is no way, whoever said that all the members of the entire Ripper Legion counted as one, and this guy had received a complete military education and command experience.

It is a last resort to insist on picking a general among the dwarves, and I can only pray secretly that nothing wrong will happen.

He himself took the other half to guard the Goliath Gap.

Before leaving, Li Cha left the dragon crystal to Dracula, in case the war got tight, Thutmose could fly to Goliath to report the news. At that time, I dare not say anything else, at least Li Cha can fly over to support him at the fastest speed.

Dracula was wearing a neat black dress, with golden curly hair under the brim fluttering gently in the breeze, and his handsome face was as indifferent as ice.

Standing on the city wall, he deeply stroked the chest of the lord who was leaving with his sword. When he stood up, his indifference suddenly melted away, and he showed an incomparably bright smile, rolled his hands into trumpets and put them by his mouth, shouting loudly:

"Your Majesty's trust really makes the ministers panic!"

Li Cha stumbled and almost fell from the sword without standing still.

…………

Back to Goliath Gap, preparations are in full swing.

To deal with sand spiders, general defense equipment is not very easy to use. Whether it is a catapult or a bed crossbow, in the face of the sheer number of the sea, it is inevitable that there will be embarrassment that cannot be used powerfully.

Drawing lessons from last time, Alpine Fort specially prepared many large wooden barrels and scattered them in the open space outside the wall.

The surface of these wooden barrels is painted with a flame mark, and a big circle cross is marked with a red pen, which means that there should be no open flames around.

Because it contains "hellfire" - a special kind of kerosene, which is very easy to burn. Throwing a fireball technique, the surrounding square inch will instantly turn into a sea of ​​flames in purgatory.

If such a rough tactic is used against people, as long as no fools are encountered, even a hair will not be caught.

But it is conceivable that this arrangement will surely bury countless sand spiders.

Because by human standards, they are fools.

Li Cha also counted the cost - ordinary kerosene can't be ignited at all, the usage is to put it in a pot and slowly heat it up and then pour it on the enemy. And this kind of hellfire that can be directly ignited is expensive, which is literally burning money.

If he hadn't just received a large amount of extra money, and knowing that it might be a tough battle, he would definitely be reluctant to buy so much at once.

The glorious task of counting barrels has been entrusted to Nehru.

Ever since he knew how many gold coins each barrel represented, the kobold shaman had been restless. He fully knows that if he dares to mess up, that stingy and stupid king will definitely not let it go lightly.

"It looks worse than last time." Vera leaned on the wall and looked into the distance.

There are gray stains hanging here and there on the city wall, which are the traces left by the dried body fluids of sand spiders, and they look disgusting.

However, there is no need to deliberately clean it up—the closer the Chimu Great Forest is to the border, the drier the air will be. After a few days, it will turn into debris and fall off by itself.

Even in the daytime, sand spiders rushing in in twos and threes outside the gap from time to time, and then they were shot away by tiger spirits or centaurs from a long distance away.

And that night, even though it was not the night of the full moon, the scale of the sand spiders that came was already considerable.

It was like an early warm-up exercise, and the performance of the soldiers was quite satisfactory. Although there were a lot of recruits, no one was stage fright, and they carried out the tactical arrangements firmly.

The only headache, unsurprisingly, is the troll warrior.

When the city wall was in full swing, the gang of big-bellied arhats were taking a nap under the base of the wall, snoring like thunder and shaking the ground.

Coming to the new world for the first time made them inexplicably fresh, and they were so excited to play along the way that they were tired.

Hum Ha Er will be the reliable king among the giant monsters, with two gaps on each side, responsible for commanding the giant monster fighters. The one left in the Goliath gap is Ha.

The lord saw with his own eyes that he jumped up and stomped on the heads of his compatriots, but he failed to wake up the trolls from their dreams, and the quality of sleep was enviable to others. But when the sand spiders were defeated and the fire started to cook, all the trolls woke up smelling the smell...

"Tonight is the night of the full moon, arrange for the brothers to take turns to rest for a while." Li Cha explained to the bosses while eating.

What they ate for this meal was sand spider meat. In fact, everyone was a bit insensitive, but since their lord was taking the lead in eating, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and stuff it into their mouths.

To be fair, if you don't know the source, this meat looks and tastes okay, at least not unpalatable. It's just that they have all seen the appearance of the sand spider before it was alive, and they have psychological barriers.

Only the troll warriors didn't dislike them at all, and they all smiled. I am used to eating bran and swallowing vegetables, and finally catch the opportunity to feel full, so I don’t want to let go.

"It's already been arranged, my lord, you should also take a break." Hurt chewed the sandwich expressionlessly.

This kind of eating method created by the lord of the alpine castle to save trouble in playing cards, once launched, it is much more popular than sand spider meat.

"It's fine if I don't sleep for a week." Li Cha slurped the sour cream on his fingers, patted Nehru's shoulder uncharacteristically, and said kindly, "By the way, go to sleep quickly and sleep more."

"I'm not sleepy either." The kobold shaman was suddenly touched, as if a warm current was slowly spreading in his chest.

When this stupid king actually still takes the initiative to care about people, it really makes people feel emotional.

"Go to sleep and recharge your spirits. Don't make any mistakes when ordering barrels at night, otherwise..." The lord laughed sinisterly twice.

"Just cover your sky spirit." Gunther Youyou added.

"Just throw you off the city wall to feed the spiders." Abu added.

"Just throw away your ashes." Ha continued to add.

Nehru suddenly shuddered, as if seeing the whole world showing ill will towards him. The sun is shining, but the heart is cold.
