Lord Highlander

   Chapter 795 784. Victory in the Battle of the Canyon

  The cavalry relied on charging, and they were able to penetrate the five-meter-long knight's spear fiercely into the body of the ghost-pattern soldier ants covered with hard armor.

  The ghost pattern soldier ants with a body length of more than three meters look like a bad-tempered one-horned bison, but they are more majestic than the one-horned bison, have a worse temper, and spit sour liquid.

  Even with a knight's lance stuck in his body and half lying on the battlefield, he would still drag his half immobile body to attack the cavalry.

   But what was waiting to bring them was another knight's spear that followed.

  They will be firmly nailed to the ground by spears, and even if there is still room for struggle, they will be beheaded by the cavalry who follow.

  The large number of ghost-pattern worker ants have become ghosts under the iron heels of war horses.

  Under the leadership of Andrew, one hundred and seventy cavalry did not plan to penetrate the entire Dodan Canyon.

  They just smashed a large group of red ants that were about to move towards the north city wall, and then circled in the canyon clearing.

   Re-opened the charging distance, and launched a second charge towards these tenacious red ants again. They were like bayonets, and their purpose was to use this piercing tactic to disperse the ant colony.

  The ant colony with a number of nearly 10,000 was successfully cut into seven isolated islands by the cavalry under the impact of 170 cavalry.

  In the ant colony with nearly 10,000 ghost-striped red ants, there are less than a thousand ghost-striped soldier ants.

   There are no high-level monsters like giant chariots like ghost-striped drones. These soldier ants are not a big threat to ogres.

   The ogre Gullitum was unwilling to come out after killing the ant colony. After he had a brother, his body entered the secondary development period.

   His strong physique gave him the power to completely suppress the ghost pattern soldier ants.

  Standing in the dense colony of ants, his lower body was almost covered with rotten liquid, but the rotten liquid was almost blocked by the ice armor on his body, which looked extremely tragic, but in fact the rotten liquid did not touch his body.

   The big bone-crushing stick in his hand smashed the heads of countless ghost pattern soldier ants, and occasionally threw a fireball from his body.

  The fireball exploded beside the ogre, like a gorgeous firework.

  …

  As the cavalry cuts a group on the battlefield, the horse infantry behind enters the field.

  With the cooperation of 200 archers, Suldak led 800 infantry soldiers to concentrate on cleaning up the ant colony separated from the easternmost side.

   There were probably nearly 2,000 ghost-striped red ants here, but under the impact of the cavalry, the number of ghost-striped soldier ants was reduced to more than 100.

  For ordinary heavy armored infantry soldiers, ghost pattern soldier ants are still very threatening, but if the tactics are proper, only three people can block a ghost pattern soldier ant.

  As long as you carefully avoid the acid from ghost-striped worker ants, the strength of ordinary infantry is about the same as that of worker ants.

  Adams and Gallatin followed behind Suldak, and the two of them mainly stared at the giant ghost pattern soldier ants that suddenly appeared from the ant colony.

This kind of giant ghost-patterned red ants is the big killer in the ant colony. They are infinitely powerful, and their hard armor is very strong. When they are killed from the ant colony, without the suppression of the bed crossbow, even ordinary soldiers have Suldak's halo of power also couldn't stop those giant soldier ants.

  Samira stood at the front of the archers group. She stood on the top of a wooden frame similar to a siege vehicle. There were four wheels under the wooden frame, and six ancient Bolai horses entered the battlefield.

  She is specifically in charge of the battlefield. Once the soldiers encounter danger on the battlefield, Samira will use superb bow skills to shoot and kill the ghost-striped red ants, minimizing the casualties of the heavy armored infantry.

   An army of nearly a thousand people will soon be able to dispose of this divided ant colony.

   Andrew's giant ax pointed to the direction in which the cavalry charged.

  The fierce fighting turned the entire battlefield into chaos. Surdak stood at the forefront of the heavy armored infantry, and he was more accustomed to this infantry's fighting style.

  The battle lasted from morning to night, and as the entire ant colony was eaten by the Dodan Town garrison, the larger ant colony in the canyon did not even approach the battlefield.

This ant colony was driven to the northern section of the canyon by the cavalry and archers. They were huge in number, but their organization was extremely loose. Under the cover of the arrow rain, ghost pattern worker ants were left dead and wounded, and the rest of the red ants continued to fight. forced to retreat.

  …

  The mercenary group and caravan hunting group in the town saw the cavalry battalion fighting in the field for the first time, and saw a group of cavalry overturning a large number of ant colonies, which made all the mercenaries a little dumbfounded.

   For a long time, although these mercenaries cooperated with the garrison to fight on the top of the city, they still kept this pride in their hearts.

The mercenaries believed that the reason why the garrison was able to defend the northern city wall was not because of their own strength, but because the high northern city wall blocked the footsteps of the ghost-striped red ants. Throwing the fire scale bomb, relying on the bed crossbow and rolling stones, was able to block the ghost pattern red ants.

  If it comes to real combat power, a single powerful mercenary can throw these garrison cavalry a few streets away.

  The mercenaries believed that as long as they were given a complete set of magic-weave structures and vigorous war horses, they would be the reserve members of a Constructed Knight Order.

   No matter what, it must be stronger than ordinary cavalry...

  In fact, there are many people in the hunting team of the business group, and they also have the same opinion.

   It's just that everything in front of them has completely changed the perception of the mercenaries. When they looked at these cavalrymen who came down from the battlefield again, their eyes became a little more respectful.

  While the cavalry were rushing forward, the infantry behind cleaned up the divided red ants, and the battlefield was full of dead red ants, big and small.

   At dusk, some carriages passed through the north city gate and entered the rear of the Dodan Canyon battlefield.

  The soldiers piled up the harvested red ant carcasses by category, and many carriages loaded with various supplies returned to Dodan Town one after another.

  …

Suldak led the main force of the garrison back to Dodan Town. The residents of the town were crowded in the open space behind the north city wall, leaving only a narrow passage. Clear water poured out from both sides, and when the cavalry passed through the passage, the sour liquid on their bodies was quickly washed away by the clear water.

  Wherever it is, the admiration for the Warriors will not change.

  The girls in the town stood at the forefront of the crowd, holding basins of light green juice in their hands, and pouring water on the cavalry on horseback.

  Bold cavalrymen will even bend down on horseback, hook the slender waist of the passionate girl with one hand, and enjoy a short kiss.

  Some businessmen also took the opportunity to be caught in the crowd, and stretched their necks from time to time, trying to hook up some cavalrymen and buy their private goods in private.

   When the cavalry entered the garrison camp, they were soaked in water one by one.

  Although everyone was tired, they were excited.

  Suldak immediately visited the wounded soldiers in the camp.

Under the bath wall, Andrew and the ogre are comparing the scars on their bodies. These two people have a kind of ruthlessness when fighting. Even though Andrew is wearing the 'Earth Shield' magic pattern structure, he is still full of scars. With injuries, Suldak was inevitably a little worried. This set of magic pattern armor could still be worn on Andrew's body for a few days.

  As long as there is a war, it is inevitable that soldiers will die on the battlefield.

  No matter how busy he is, Suldak will attend the funeral, and will announce the merits and private property of the dead soldiers at the funeral, and will announce in public the follow-up arrangements for their families.

  Of course, these are also what other cavalrymen want to know most.

  At this time, the achievement exchange list in the military camp becomes the most shining existence, because those achievements are golden gold coins, magic crystals, or a piece of precious monster leather.

  The cavalry battalion has been stationed in Dodan Town for more than a month, and many veterans have gained wealth that they have almost never had in their entire lives.

  …

  The next day Suldak announced a decision: to expand the garrison camp.

  The camp currently has 1,500 garrisons. Although some new wooden dormitories have been built in the camp, the camp is extremely crowded with so many people living at once.

With a swipe of his pen on the town map of Dodan Town, Suldak expanded all the long and narrow land between the north city wall and the barracks to form a large area with the city defense brigade. According to Suldak's plan, this A land that would separate cavalry, infantry, and archers completely.

  Each unit has a separate camp to avoid increasing small frictions.

  Suldak has the final say in the current town of Dodan. Of course, Mrs. Luna will not refuse this matter.

  So he submitted this proposal to the town hall, and it was approved immediately. Since this land is reserved for the town, the town has the right to decide on the right to use it.

  In the morning, the wood and stone from the logging field and quarry were transported to the gate of the station.

  Selina personally went to the town to hire a group of craftsmen, and first built the wall according to the area divided by Suldak on the town map.

  …

  The midday sun left a small shadow on the ground on the gray tiles of the small barracks building.

  Signa stood on the wooden bench in front of the railing of the small building, hanging strips of washed bandages on the clothesline. She is short, even if she is stepping on a wooden bench, she has to tiptoe to get to the clothesline.

  Nika walked in and out of the small building with the basin in her hand, almost trotting all the way.

  The battle in the canyon yesterday made the barracks full of wounded soldiers. The seriously wounded were treated overnight yesterday, and the slightly injured soldiers were treated today.

  Busy for the whole morning, Suldak didn't suspend the treatment until his mental power was exhausted. There was no need to start the sacrificial ceremony. The remaining wounded soldiers probably had to wait until evening, when his mental power recovered, before he could receive the treatment of the Holy Light.

  He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and planned to take advantage of the free time in the afternoon after lunch to peel off the complete life magic pattern from the giant ghost-striped red ant captured yesterday.

  In the canyon, the ghost-striped red ants retreated to the northern section, and the garrison camp did not mobilize again. It just opened the gate of the north city wall, and the hunting teams of the mercenary group and the merchant group hunted the ghost-striped red ants in the canyon.

  Selena walked in from the small building with a headscarf and a food box.

  The sun was a little bright in the morning, and she spent the whole morning outside directing the craftsmen to build the fence. The bright sun made her face a little red.

  As long as she eats in the barracks, she will bring her lunch back to the small building, and generally she will not eat it in the cafeteria.

   Nika and Signa helped clear the table and set the plates.

   As soon as Suldak took a bite of fried steak, the guards at the gate ran outside the small building and informed Suldak that Malakom, the owner of the Thunder Rhino caravan, was outside the barracks and wanted to visit Suldak.

At this time, Suldak remembered that there were two thunder rhinos recuperating in Dodan Town, and the Quartermaster Handel asked him to take care of them. As a result, there were too many things recently, and he didn't even go to see them once. What happened to the two injured Thunder Rhinos?

  He put down the knife in his hand and asked Selina: Do you know the situation of Lei Tingxi in the town.

Selena shook her head, but Nika sat at the dining table and said in a low voice: "The toes of the two thunder rhinos are corroded by red formic acid and festered. They have been recuperating in the town for a few days. The local aborigines used Grass juice helped the two riders clean Lei Tingxi's wounds a few times, and it is almost healed now. The two big guys are pretty docile, but they are too edible, and they eat grass almost all day long .”

  Suldak nodded, thinking that nothing happened, otherwise he really couldn't give an explanation to Handel's quartermaster.

Unexpectedly, the owner of this thunder rhinoceros caravan would come to Dodan in person, and thought that he still has a large number of fur goods that he entrusts this merchant group to transport to Bena City. Now that the owner of the merchant group is here, he really needs it Meet him.

  Then asked the guards to go to the gate of the barracks, and invited the owner of the Thunder Rhino caravan in.

   After thinking about it, I decided to put down the lunch in front of me and walk out of the small building to greet him.

  …

Malacombe has been running the Thunder Rhino Caravan for twenty-six years. He took over the business group from his father, old Malakom. Back then, his father ran the Thunder Rhino Merchant Group and almost monopolized Bai Lin. For all transportation businesses on the plane, the Thunder Rhino caravan was once expanded to twelve.

   But now, the caravan has been in his hands for more than 20 years, and he has almost lost all business in the northern area of ​​the Bailin plane.

   There are only eight Thunder Rhino caravans still operating in the southern region. Even so, three of the eight Thunder Rhino caravans are not full.

Of course, there are many reasons for the decline of the business group, but the most important thing is that Malakom wants to transfer part of the industry in the Bailin plane to the Bena province. After all, there have been frequent plane wars in recent years. Like him, all his family property is on the plane, once the dark army of the deep prison invades Bailin, it is very likely that he will lose everything overnight.

  Originally, the two thunder rhinos were slightly injured, and they only needed to send an animal trainer, and the matter should be resolved.

  Even if the local garrison entrusts a large number of fur goods transportation business, the Lei Tingxi caravan does not know how many such businesses are received every year, and there is no need for him to come to negotiate business in person.

   Malacolm came to Dodan Town in person this time, but he actually had some plans of his own.

  In view of the fact that a plane war may break out at any time, Malakom hopes to make friends with some Bailin military forces, at least in the early stages of the outbreak of the plane war, to obtain the military's asylum.

  Currently all his connections are almost in the Southern Wilkes region.

   Now that the beast tide broke out once every ten years in the northern region, Malakom, relying on the keen sense of a businessman, immediately sensed some opportunities, so he came to Dodan Town himself.

  He actually arrived in Dodan Town yesterday, just in time to see the local garrison win a big victory, and the entire town residents lined the road to welcome the triumphant warrior.

  Seeing that the garrison commander is such a radical, I want to make friends even more.
