Chapter 275 The cavalry is fighting, preparing to attack the city!

Kyoto is about fifty miles away from Dongmu County.

At this time, Qin Yu used his consciousness to control more than 500 earth-boring insects to dig in the direction of Dongmu County.

The approximate speed is one hundred and forty meters per hour, and it is a large hole two meters high and four meters wide.

It is estimated that the total target length of this underground tunnel is about 30,000 meters. According to the digging speed of five hundred ground-boring worms, it can be dug out in about a week.

Plus some unexpected time.

It will take about seven to ten days to dig a tunnel directly from Kyoto to Higashi Maki County.

"Plot the route and have people monitor the direction of the cave in real time. Immediately ask the Witch Palace to send a group of wizards to take over the control of the earth-boring insects."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

The Witch Palace moved very quickly, and a wizard team of fourteen people, including three intermediate wizards and eleven junior wizards, rushed over.

Qin Yu quickly facilitated the team of wizards to take control of the earth worms.

"Now you will be responsible for the underground cave plan. I have other things to do, so don't make any mistakes."

"Your Majesty, don't worry!"

After a conversation, Qin Yu left with the Human Emperor's guards.

The wizard team controlled five hundred earth-boring insects to dig holes in the ground according to the map route drawn up by the assistant staff in real time.

After returning to Yangxin Palace, Qin Yu clicked on the system warehouse and started to see if there were any props he could use.

"All plants and trees are soldiers?"

Qin Yu's right hand rubbed his chin. After thinking for a moment, he acquiesced.

Then a light curtain appeared in front of him. Above the light curtain were more than a dozen towns in Daqin. Qin Yu clicked on the image of Dongmu County City and then confirmed its use.

[Tip: All the trees and grass take effect successfully and last for three days. During this period, when the enemy is investigating, the number of troops in the city will be three times the original number to confuse the enemy. 】

"Hopefully it can be delayed for a few more days."

Looking at the successful use prompt, Qin Yu sighed.

As long as Yu Qian can delay the enemy until the tunnel is dug, then Qin Yu is fully confident that he will win this battle.

I'm afraid that if the enemy doesn't want to fight a long battle and directly attacks the whole army directly, it will be difficult to defend Dongmu County.

After all, with a powerful army and attacking regardless of casualties, it is really difficult to defend the troops close to Dongmu County.

Although Zhou Tai's five thousand recruits are fully equipped, they have not been trained for a few days and their combat power is limited.

However, the five thousand recruits were all troops who had been trained once in the militia training camp building. Although their combat power was limited, they still had combat power.

Paired with Thunder Copper armaments, it can be regarded as a relatively backbone defense force.

"Ask Mu Yuan to pass on the order and send a baggage team to transport a batch of city defense materials and grain and grass to Dongmu County. Among them, at least 100,000 thunder copper arrows should be sent. Let the Dragon Cavalry Battalion lead 500 cavalry to escort. The number is too large. How easy it is to attract the enemy’s attention.”

After Qin Yu thought for a moment, he immediately asked the officials to write down the decree.

After the official finished writing, he hurriedly went down and handed it over to Mu Yuan, the chief inspector of the command house.

Mu Yuan knew that the situation was urgent and quickly made arrangements with Qin Yu's order.

A team of a thousand people quietly left the city from the north gate and headed towards Dongmu County.

Qin Yu's move was to take advantage of the fact that the enemy army had not yet begun to attack the city, and quickly and covertly sent the supplies there. Otherwise, with the enemy's army of more than 50,000, Dongmu County's supplies would definitely be exhausted in a short time. .

Among the thousands of troops, in addition to the 500 people responsible for escorting the supplies, the other 500 people were the 500 cavalrymen of the Dragon Cavalry Battalion, led by Jiang Yu, the deputy commander of the Shadow Guards Academy.

Because Jiang Yu had an eagle gifted by Qin Yu, which was very spiritual. Since he had been active in the grassland for a long time, he was also very familiar with the terrain and location. He could lead the baggage team to avoid enemy scouts and reach Dongmu County safely.

.........

It is three or four miles away from Dongmu County.

A man with short blond hair wearing iron armor rode a war horse and led hundreds of light cavalry around.

The man with short blond hair has a resolute face, but the three terrifying scars on the side of his face make him look a bit ferocious from his originally sunny and just face.

He held a long sword, and a lance was hung on the side of his horse. Behind him were hundreds of light cavalry wearing leather armor and holding shields and spears.

"Baron Railton, His Majesty asked you to be careful before the war officially begins. Once you get the location of the enemy's city, rush back."

A knight next to Baron Railton reminded him softly.

"Are you afraid that if I get into trouble, His Majesty the King will blame me?"

"I am Her Royal Highness the Queen's dearest brother, you can rest assured."

The knight on the side nodded slightly after hearing this, and couldn't help but secretly complain.

You are Her Royal Highness the Queen's dearest brother, what are we?

Yes, you don't have to worry about any responsibility if something happens, we will be unlucky.

The knight couldn't help but secretly curse the unfortunate child, but that was all.

"This is the first time I have seen such a vast grassland. Look! My horses like this place very much. When I have enough merits, I will ask His Majesty the King to grant me a fiefdom here!"

Railton shouted excitedly while riding his horse wildly.

"Baron Railton! There are traces of the enemy! We should return to the camp immediately. This is enemy territory and it is not safe for us!"

The knight pointed the hilt of his sword in the east direction and shouted anxiously.

When Railton heard the sound, he saw more than a hundred cavalry in bronze armor wandering around in the east direction. At this time, they seemed to have discovered them and began to gather and run towards this direction.

He was overjoyed when he saw it and then shouted in a deep voice: "God above, you are the bravest warriors of the Holy Eagle Kingdom. Can a mere hundred cavalry make you put aside the glory of the kingdom and flee in panic?"

Follow me, Baron Railton, and defeat them together! "

Railton had no idea of ​​retreat. He wanted to go against it. He wanted to lead this group of light cavalry to defeat the opponent. After returning, he could ask for credit from His Majesty the King!

The knight watched as the ten elite meritorious knights from the Hill family who were responsible for protecting Railton followed Baron Railton and charged towards the hundreds of knights.

The knight had no choice but to charge forward with more than 300 light cavalry following him.

For a time, hundreds of war horses galloped together with such majestic momentum that the ground rumbled.

Less than two miles away, the cavalry arrived quickly.

The strength of each of the ten meritorious knights of the Hill family is no less than five-star martial arts. They are true elites and rare talents.

After all, knight is a class and a symbol of status, strength, merit and glory.

This is completely incomparable to being a soldier.

For a moment, the entire cavalry team, led by Railton and ten meritorious knights, seemed to turn into a sharp and swift steel knife, stabbing fiercely at the abdomen of the seemingly weak sheep in front of them!

Seeing that only two hundred meters were left, the two cavalry were about to collide.

Railton's mind had already imagined the scene where the enemy was knocked upside down.

When he raised his rifle and looked forward again, he was stunned by the sudden change.

I saw the hundred cavalrymen in front of me suddenly took out their bows and arrows from behind, drew their bows and nocked arrows, and a rain of arrows came fiercely.

Death loomed over his head, causing him to break out in cold sweat. He suddenly regained consciousness. He threw the lance decisively and drew out the long sword with his right hand to sweep away the incoming arrows. The same is true for the ten meritorious knights behind them. They are battle-hardened and naturally will not be killed easily.

It was just a pity for the light cavalry behind them that they were shot at more than twenty cavalry in an instant. After a while, they fell off their horses and lost a dozen more cavalry.

The group of cavalry directly in front immediately dispersed after a round of arrows, split into two and rushed to both sides of them, firing from a flank.

Another wave of arrows came quickly, and the light cavalry once again lost more than fifty riders.

Railton was furious and led ten meritorious knights to kill him with their swords.

Worried that Railton would be harmed and punished for this, the knight had no choice but to bite the bullet and chase after him with the remaining two hundred light-armored cavalry.

And that hundred-man cavalry is like a loach in the river, no matter how hard you chase it, you can't catch it.

Occasionally, he would turn around and shoot a few arrows, which would make Railton furious.

"Baron Railton, the enemies are all cavalry who are skilled in bows and horses. If we continue to pursue them, the losses of the light cavalry will be even greater!"

After a long time, Railton found that he couldn't catch up no matter how hard he tried, he was a little discouraged. With someone on the side trying to dissuade him, he had no choice but to give the order to stop the pursuit.

"retreat."

Railton gritted his teeth and uttered two words, then turned around and retreated with the cavalry.

When the cavalry of the dragon cavalry battalion saw that the enemy had withdrawn, they did not turn around to pursue them. After all, the county guard had warned them before leaving the city.

Be careful not to fall into an ambush by the enemy.

"The enemy is not that good either."

In the Dragon Riding Battalion, a camp leader smiled and said sarcastically.

"Don't underestimate the enemy." A captain from the Dragon Cavalry Battalion shouted in a deep voice.

Then the cavalry galloped away in the direction of Dongmu County City.

.........

On the other side, Railton integrated more than a thousand light cavalry who were searching for the enemy's city and rushed towards the camp.

Halfway through, a group of ten light cavalry galloped back and said: "Lord Baron, an enemy cavalry appeared from five miles to the west."

Railton's eyes lit up.

Seeing this, the knight on the side hurriedly said: "Baron Railton! Our main purpose now is to pass the information back! If there are any more losses, His Majesty the King will be displeased!"

The knight's shout immediately made Railton give up his thoughts. He looked a little unhappy, but he was afraid that the light cavalry would suffer heavy losses when encountering the cavalry who were as skilled in bow and horse as the previous team.

He could only respond: "Don't worry about them, go back to the camp first."

"Yes!"

More than a thousand light cavalry galloped towards the camp.

……

……

It is located fifteen miles south of Dongmu County.

The grassland that was originally bare with only floating green grass suddenly appeared with a city wall about seven or eight meters high.

Although the city wall is made of copper, its surface shines with a shiny metallic light under the sun.

It can be seen that it has a high defense power.

This is the alchemy wall.

It can be installed into space magic equipment and can be built in just a few hours after being taken out.

However, it is also an alchemical product that consumes more resources.

Yilor has been ridiculed by others in the league.

"There is an old saying in the East that wealth is strong."

This is the evaluation of him within the league.

Within this alchemical magic copper city wall, densely packed but neatly arranged camps were established.

Teams of elite soldiers were wandering around, and everyone looked full of morale.

It can be seen that there is no useless commander among the 60,000-strong army.

The bronze gates, which were made of steel, slowly opened from both sides, and more than a thousand cavalry poured into the city.

"Go back to your respective camps and rest. I will report the information to His Majesty the King."

Railton waved his hand, then rode his horse in the direction of the magic spire at the front that looked like a pillar of heaven.

...

The first floor hall of the Magic Spire.

"Your Majesty, Baron Railton wishes to see you."

"pass."

After a while.

Railton, who was wearing iron armor, walked in from outside, accompanied by a sound of metal friction.

"Your most loyal subject, Railton, greets you, my most respected King."

Yirol waved his hand and motioned for Railton to sit aside.

"Tell me about the harvest." He cherished his words like gold.

Railton nodded and said: "The nearest enemy city is about fifteen miles to the northeast, and there is a small town more than twenty miles to the south, but there are not many people and there is nothing around it. A valuable resource.”

After hearing this, Yiluoer said without raising his head:

"I smell the smell of blood on you."

Railton was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly responded: "We encountered a group of enemy cavalry near the enemy's city, but I did not dishonor my honor as a knight and pursued the enemy bravely.

However, the opponent was like a cunning fox, and the team did not catch up, so I came back with the cavalry. After all, the mission ordered by Your Majesty the King is the most important. "

After listening to Railton's words, a trace of curiosity flashed in Yilor's eyes. He raised his head and asked:

"Are you at war? Tell us what the other side's strength is like."

Railton shook his head and said: "Of course they are not as good as the cavalry of our Holy Eagle Kingdom. They are as timid as mice and do not have any courage and spirit of knights!"

After hearing this, Yiluoer said displeasedly: "Arrogance is a stupid behavior. Knowing your enemies and yourself can make you improve even more.

Railton, you still lack some experience to make you look more stable. I don't really like an impulsive commander, because impulsive people are more likely to make mistakes. "

"Your Majesty understands, thank you for your teachings." Railton listened dully for a long time and then continued: "The cavalry's riding skills are very good, and they can pull bows and arrows on horses, and their arrows are as accurate as those of the elves. I have to Admit it, although they do not have the courage and spirit of knights, they are not stupid..."

Yilor couldn't help but nodded slightly after hearing this, and then waved to the herald: "Call to Sarold, the grand leader of the Knights of the Royal Court, to prepare for the siege!"
