The cavalry battalion commander who took the lead fell off his horse. Leonidas pulled out his spear and stepped on his chest. The bright red cloak was blown by gusts of wind, and his thick, veined arms were raised high. drank:
"This is Sparta!!"
Although Leonidas was extremely brave, not everyone who followed him could kill the cavalry alone. Therefore, the light cavalry battalion newly sent by General Liva finally came together with the cavalry led by Boudica.
At the rear of the army formation, Kong Ming, holding a feather fan, sat on the grand master's chair, smiling at the changing battle situation in front of him, as if he was sure of the victory.
Sitting next to Kong Ming, Iskandar scratched his ears and scratched his head anxiously looking at the battlefield where the sound of killing was loud. He wished he could go down and lead the soldiers to have a good time, but Kong Ming asked him to stay in the army.
When the army chasing the enemy left about 300 meters away, in order to prevent his own army from getting bogged down due to love for fighting, Kong Ming lightly shook his feather fan and said to the knight standing beside him:
"Send the order, Mr. Bedivere, it's time to withdraw the troops."
Chapter 325 Let's Work Overtime! Teacher Kong Ming
On the battlefield, Cu Chulainn and Leonidas were fighting vigorously, but the sound of gongs and drums from behind woke them up from the fighting, making them realize that it was time to withdraw their troops and return.
"Tsk, if you chase after me again, you will plunge into the opponent's main force. If you don't release the treasure, it may really cause me some trouble."
While talking to himself, Cu Chulainn skillfully manipulated the chariot to turn and turn, his eyes swept to the side slope, showing a provocative intention.
He had just been keenly aware of the ambush not far ahead, and he would fall into the trap if he rushed forward a few tens of meters, and then a group of good hands would rush out to capture or kill him alive.
Originally, Cu Chulainn planned to play with the imperial army, but who would have thought that Kong Ming would withdraw at this time.
Compared to other heroic spirits with rebellious personalities, Cu Chulainn is already a better communicative type, so he did not act alone on his own initiative, but chose to obey orders.
Seeing Cu Chulainn go away after a big kill, how could General Liwa let him leave safely, and immediately ordered the sharpshooters under his command to shoot after him.
The sound of sharp arrows piercing the air reached Cu Chulainn's ears, but he didn't even turn his head. Such an arrogant behavior naturally further angered the archers of the empire, and countless arrows aimed at Cu Chulainn's body. He went straight to the back of his heart.
However, due to the existence of the "Guardian of Arrow Avoidance", the sharpshooters of the empire couldn't do anything to Cu Chulainn at all. The arrows they shot were completely drawn around the human body, and they could only watch helplessly as the opponent walked back to the army formation swaggeringly.
If all the sharpshooters hadn't gone wrong under the eyes of everyone, General Liwa would almost have thought that his subordinates had defected to the enemy, but this also made him fully aware of the difficulty of the rebels in front of him again.
"Is it the emperor's envoy? Or, the minister's envoy is also possible."
General Liwa weighed everything he had encountered in his heart, and planned to report the matter to the imperial capital, and asked to send elite Tegu envoys to support the bandit suppression operation, but his actions were destined to be futile.
Because, at this time, the imperial capital was in turmoil due to the old emperor's critical illness.
All forces and factions are doing their best to support their favored princes in their struggle for the throne, and no one has time to answer the military reports from the northern border.
What's more, the empire has stood firm for a thousand years.
These aristocratic ministers all have the self-confidence of fans in their hearts. They have never paid attention to the so-called rebel aliens. They think that as long as the empire is serious, it will definitely crush the rebellious forces in the shortest time.
Therefore, this is an extremely urgent matter in the eyes of General Liwa, but not many people care about it after arriving in the imperial capital. Even General Bude is busy stabilizing the situation in the imperial capital and has no time to take care of everything.
Compared with the worried Liwa, the atmosphere in the Xingyue camp was extremely cheerful, and the camp was filled with a relaxed atmosphere.
"Victory in the first battle, today is really hard for you all."
Iskandar, who was sitting on the main seat, expressed his gratitude briefly, while Cu Chulainn patted the table and responded boldly:
"Hahaha, the feeling of galloping on the battlefield is really good. If it weren't for Higurashi's retreat, I would definitely be able to kill another seven in and seven out of the opponent's army!"
Although Leonidas didn't speak, it was clear from his expression that he agreed with Cu Chulainn.
As the king of Sparta, although Leonidas is not a war madman, he is also a true warrior who desires to fight from the bottom of his heart.
Boudica smiled silently and did not answer. Although she was known as the Queen of Victory, her experience during her lifetime made her somewhat disgusted with war. If it was not for the struggle, this gentle queen would never take up a weapon of.
Seeing that Cu Chulainn was so excited, Iskandar patted him on the shoulder and kindly suggested:
"If Cu Chulainn likes the feeling of single-handedly challenging the legion, then you are welcome to challenge the King's Army at any time."
Cu Chulainn was a little dumbfounded when he heard the words. He is not the kind of person who likes to seek abuse for nothing. Although he will not be afraid of the king's army, it is not very possible to win.
"Forget it, that's so troublesome. You can find sparring partners every day in the community. It's cool to abuse food, but an evenly matched opponent is what a fighter really desires."
Seeing that everyone has started chatting, Kong Ming coughed a few times to attract everyone's attention, and said slowly, fanning the feather fan:
"Comrade Yuanyuan sent news that the empire is currently fighting openly and secretly for the throne. Before the new emperor succeeds, the empire should no longer send large-scale troops."
Although Kong Ming hadn't finished speaking, everyone present understood what he meant. Bedivere tapped on the table and said:
"In other words, we can use this time to gain a foothold in farming development?"
"That's it, but before that, we have to get rid of the enemy in front of us. The general who came this time is not an idiot."
As Kong Ming spoke, he began to briefly introduce the information about General Liwa, and all of this information was collected by Emiya Kiritsugu by taking advantage of his position, and it was very detailed in all aspects.
General Liwa is only in his 30s, and he is loyal to the empire. He has made great military exploits since he was in the army, and has excellent personal abilities. He is a difficult person with both wisdom and courage.
Of course, the reason why Kong Ming came up with this information was actually a matter of routine. After all, anyone here could easily clean up the other party.
Listening to Kong Ming's serious judgment and analysis, the absent-minded Iskandar went in his left ear and out his right ear, because after the current wave of battles, there will be a long period of development, and there will be no large-scale attacks at all. Clash fight.
Iskandar wanted to lead people to provoke the empire, but he knew that Teacher Kong Ming would never agree to this approach, and he would even be lectured if there was a trouble.
"Hey, Mr. Kong Ming seems to be very good at internal affairs, right? Or I'll sneak to the northern border to have a look during this period of time. The empire can't fight, but the foreign race in the north can find a way to move."
The restless Iskandar planned in his mind to be the shopkeeper, while Kong Ming didn't expect to be tricked at all, and was still calculating how to swallow Liwa's troops with the least loss.
At the same time, the old man of the mountain and Anastasia, who had been in the imperial capital for several months, were about to leave. The increasingly tense atmosphere in the capital was really not suitable for vacation.
Sitting on the bear cart pulled by the crescent moon bear, Anastasia thought for a long time before deciding where to go.
"Grandpa, let's go back to Northern Xinjiang to have a look. I don't know what happened to the Patriarch Esdes and Bartos. I miss them a little bit."
Chapter 326 Bartos: Daughter, come and practice
The Northern Frontier of the Empire.
The white snow covered the ground like a carpet, the trees in the forest were covered with snow, the cold wind swept through the air arrogantly, and the sound of "woo-woo" was heard when passing by the cliffs and canyons, indicating the official arrival of the severe winter.
Although the northern border and other areas south of northern Xinjiang are still in the harvest season of autumn, but unlike the icy and natural disasters caused by the super dangerous species Brezed, today's ice and snow are completely from the natural changes of the world.
Winter in the north always comes earlier than in the south.
If you are straight in science and engineering, it can be explained by geographical and meteorological factors, but if you are romantic and interesting, you can call it the special preference of the goddess of winter.
In the early morning, at the residence of the Baluts tribe.
Esdeth, who was wearing a jacket, got out of the thick and warm tent, with white air rising from his breath. Under the stimulation of the cold air, the girl could not help shrinking her body and wrapping her clothes tightly.
Rubbing his hands, stomping his feet, stretching his arms, and shaking his long legs, it took three to five minutes for Esthers to finally adapt to the change in temperature.
Although it has been almost half a year since they moved to the border, the Baluts who left their homes are still in the adaptation period.
After all, the northernmost border area is [-] degrees colder than the central and southern part of northern Xinjiang, and the environment in the alien kingdom area further north is even worse.
If it wasn't for the fact that the Baluts had good cold-proof equipment when their magic resistance was full, they wouldn't have been able to survive the first winter in their new home, and many members of the tribe would probably have died of freezing to death.
"Morning, Estes, are you waking up for morning exercises again? It's winter, and obviously a warm bed is the first choice for comfort."
A rough and powerful loud voice came from behind Esdeth. The girl concentrated on her fists and feet without looking back. The crisp voice blended into the north wind and replied:
"Then what are you doing here, Dad? Isn't it good to just go back to the tent and go to sleep?"
Life does not stop, and exercise does not stop.
For those who strive to be strong, they will never become stronger if they lie down without exercising. This kind of waste of time and sleep is destined to miss them.
Listening to Estes' stubborn and meaningful words, Bartos stepped on the snow and walked to her side. The father and daughter stood together to stretch their muscles and spirits, and they didn't stop until their bodies were completely warmed up.
At the end of the preparatory activities, Esdeth practiced the fighting skills handed down from the family without stopping. Every move was full of strength, moving and moving smoothly, and even the snow on the ground was scattered by the force. open.
Looking at his daughter who has grown a lot taller in half a year, Bartos raised a provocative smile, waved his hands and said:
"Come and practice, Estes. Let me see how much you have grown during this time."
Esdeth would never refuse such things as sparring and fighting. The wild girl didn't hesitate at all. She looked at her father as if she was staring at a prey, full of arrogance.
"That's good. Recently, my peers in the clan are not willing to fight with me. Even adult fighters don't want to compete with me. I am worried that I have no opponent."
Bartos frowned upon hearing this, shook his head and sighed:
"Who told you to beat those half-children to the ground every time, don't you know how to be more modest?"
Estes clenched his fists in displeasure, didn't listen to his father's advice at all, and replied in his own way:
"Tsk, my purpose is to become stronger, not to be their sparring partner. Even girls can't beat them, so they still have face?"
"Uh, Estes, let me tell you, you won't be able to get married in the future with a fierce look like you."
“哼!那现在就立下规矩,要么实力强,要么能抗揍,否则别想娶我,还有咱们还打不打了?”
After the words fell, before Bartos could continue to speak, Esdeth jumped out and raised his fist, directly interrupting the conversation that was a waste of time arguing.
Bartos raised his arms in front of him and firmly received Esdeth's powerful punch. Although the girl's slender figure looked rather weak, the strength she exerted was not to be underestimated. Bartos couldn't help but take two steps back before stopping the castration.
"Good girl, strong enough!"
Bartos couldn't care less about preaching at the moment, his azure blue eyes were filled with fiery fighting intent, and his keen intuition told him that if he didn't use his skills to fight seriously, he might lose this round.
Although very pleased with the growth of Esdeth, as a majestic father, Bartos will never let water in the next battle.
Taking advantage of Bartos's unstable center of gravity and retreating, Esdes stepped forward to catch up with the opportunity, whipped his legs sideways and hit the opponent's waist. Bartos calmly blocked the kick with his elbows down, relying on his height and body Strong and strong, he pushed forward and punched Esdesh's abdomen.
Seeing that the two moves failed in succession, Esdesi was not anxious, and retreated wisely to avoid Bartos' fist. The girl knew that she had no advantage in strength, so she no longer fought with Bartos. Si confronted head-on and began to fight with agility.
"Is it Yuto's style of play? If you think that you can beat me like this, then you are really naive."
Seeing the changes in his daughter's offensive, Bartos still had a confident smile on his face, and his vigorous figure chased up like a cheetah, vowing to hit the arrogant Esdesh in all aspects.
Estes felt the heavy pressure, and although she was not out of breath, her regular breathing had already begun to become short, because Bartos chased and beat her fiercely and didn't give her a chance to breathe.
Bartos, who was in his heyday, was as strong as a bull, and he fought like a maddened bear, with powerful fists and feet. With Esdeth's current small body, it is estimated that a blow without defense can directly declare The battle is over.
As the strongest fighter of the Barutus tribe in the contemporary era, Bartos's strength has completely reached the peak that human beings can reach in this world. It is almost equivalent to Brand who has not obtained Teigu. He can obtain it on the battlefield. A fierce general with a record of killing hundreds of people.
Perhaps, in a few years, Esdeth will be able to wrestle with Bartos when he fully grows up, but now the girl who is suppressed at a disadvantage can only be beaten.
A sparring session lasted for about ten minutes. In the end, Esdesi was defeated. Bartos seized the opportunity to pinch his slender neck with both hands, and pressed his face to the ground, losing the ability to resist.
"Admit...Admit defeat..."
Hearing Esdeth's unwillingness to admit defeat, Bartos got up and pulled up the baby girl who was lying on the ground, raised his hand to help her wipe off the snow on her face, and said with a smile:
"Come on, you're still a long way off."
Chapter 327 Hunting in the Blizzard
Estes angrily pulled away his father's big rough hands, patted off the snow on his clothes, and rubbed his red face. The feeling of his face touching the ground just now was really uncomfortable, bitingly cold .
"Let's go, let's go to breakfast. In winter, after the activity, drink a bowl of steaming stomach-warming porridge. It's like a fairy life."
Bartos didn't care about his daughter's dislike. He would feel upset if he lost in a fight. Even the most arrogant people would get a little emotional, which is nothing to be ashamed of.
Hearing Bartos' greeting, Esdece followed his father and walked towards the food place in the center of the resident. At this time, the cook in charge of the family's food supply should have already prepared breakfast.
Winter, when everything is dormant, is the most difficult season of the year to obtain food.
Although the Baluts began to prepare for the winter as early as summer, the appearance of Brezed disrupted the deployment of the tribe. Coupled with the long-distance migration, the supplies for the winter this year are also quite tight. .
In order to prevent another famine, the whole family gathered food together for scheduling, that is, three meals a day were all in one big pot.
Then, quantitative distribution is carried out according to factors such as gender, age, and position. After excluding underage children, all the remaining people abide by the standard of more work and more pay.
In a word, if you don't work, you have nothing to eat.
For example, the warriors responsible for patrolling or hunting eat the largest portion of food as a matter of course. They are undoubtedly the most respected group in the Baluts tribe who respect the strong, not to mention relying on them to protect the tribe. Safety.
Of course, clansmen who are sick or physically disabled have corresponding preferential treatment. Even if it is impossible to have enough food every meal, it is still enough to maintain the needs of life.
Wasting food is strictly prohibited. People who waste food will be imprisoned and starved for a meal at least, and will be starved for two or three days if they are too much, so as to appreciate the precious meaning of food.
Although not as detailed as the laws of the empire, the Baluts also have their own family rules.
For thousands of years, the reason why this ethnic group formed by the fusion of imperial people and aliens can survive crisis after crisis and struggle tenaciously to live in the northern border is because of their tenacious character and unique wisdom.
Although Estes is a woman, she is also a powerful warrior and has become an official member of the hunting team, so the standard of food is naturally the highest.
Although she has a lot of activities due to her practice every day, the girl's appetite is still much smaller than that of other soldiers, so she usually gives half of her own food to her father, so that Bartos, who can only eat [-]% full, can eat and drink. foot.
And Bartos was naturally happy to accept his daughter's kindness, and at the same time enjoyed the envious eyes of soldiers of the same age around him, and proudly showed off his daughter's cuteness and understanding.
After breakfast, Estes hurried back to the tent to put on his weapons and equipment.
The weather is fine now, and when there is no wind or snow, the clan will definitely organize warriors to go out to try their luck. It is naturally best to hunt dangerous species, and it doesn't matter if there is no harvest.
