Chapter 217: The Wolf Rides Fiercely (Part I)
Drive! On the border of the Snow Wolf Plain, a team of heavily armed cavalry is desperately galloping on horses, judging from the messy clothes and dusty state, it is a little embarrassed, but the team has always maintained a neat formation, and at first glance it is quite experienced elite cavalry. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The steppe horse team is different from the city, because there is no post station to provide supplies, so most of the cavalry are with two or three horses for replacement, but only horse resources such as the steppe kingdom can be so luxurious.
The grassland territory is huge, one area into another area, even if the fast horse gallops, it will take a day and a night, but in this case, the general horse is unbearable, you must know that most of the regular knights are wearing heavy armor, and the armor and weapons alone weigh dozens or even hundreds of catties, plus the weight of the human body, the horse has to carry such a large weight to gallop, and the staying power will naturally be greatly reduced.
Therefore, most knights need to prepare a few more horses to replace, and such extravagant conditions can only be possessed by a grassland kingdom like the royal court, that is, because there are several horses for one person, so when rushing, it is necessary to pay more attention to the formation, to control the direction of the horses, and to control whether it is a wild run or a sudden stop, it will not scatter.
This cavalry is wearing excellent armor, and the banner on the back is also obvious, it is the knight of the Grand Duke of Hadanbatel, it is hard to imagine what kind of thing can force a knight of the golden family like Ye to be so embarrassed.
"Wow!" Several men motioned to each other, and all the knights controlled their horses and stopped, and two of them sped forward and ran in a circle, driving the loose horses to a circle, and then dismounted and began to calm the horses.
"Can't run anymore!" The soldier gasped, took out the kettle hanging from the horse, poured it into himself, fed it to all the horses, and sighed: "If we run any longer, even if the horses can't run, we will die!" ”
Several soldiers sat down on the grass, and as soon as they relaxed, they immediately felt sore.
"Huh?" A soldier suddenly pointed into the distance and said, "There's a fire over there!" ”
"Boom!" Several soldiers scolded angrily: "Who? Is there a bit of common sense? Not afraid to summon the wolf? ”
"I guess it's some adventurers from other countries, look like this, it's also a rookie, let's go, go over and see if you can seize something to eat, if you eat this dried meat, people will eat and vomit, and by the way, you can also eat something by the heat."
A few people led the horse and leaned over, and when they approached, the leader suddenly raised his hand, so that the people behind him were on guard, and he saw from afar that there was only one person sitting there, dressed in black, and his body was also very thin, and he didn't look threatening!
But the situation is a little weird, normal people see their own team, or heavily armed soldiers approaching, almost always have some panic, at least they will stand up and show their vigilance, but the person in front of him seems to have not seen his own group.
"Brother, can you borrow a firelight?" The leader asked tentatively.
His question was still relatively polite, according to the style of their tribe, now is the time when they are in a bad mood, and it is very likely that they will be slaughtered directly when they encounter such a lonely herdsman or adventurer.
But years of experience in fighting horses told him that the person in front of him seemed to be a little unsimple.
The man in black was Guo Lang, who had just arrived here.
Guo Lang, who was boiling hot water, glanced at them lightly, then nodded slightly, and ignored them.
The cavalryman frowned, the other party's posture is very high, could it be a nobleman? Then he beckoned to the soldiers behind him, and whispered: "Come here to keep warm, don't make trouble, this guy is a little unusual." ”
"The head ......" a cavalryman behind him said disapprerovitically: "What can be extraordinary?" Just one person, if you look at his body shape and skin color, he is obviously not from the royal court, so it is better to ......"
"Shut up!" The cavalry leader glared at him and warned: "We are on a mission, this time the front army has not sent back a battle report for several days, we must find out the information this time, don't make trouble, delay the mission, you can't afford it!" ”
"If!" Although they all agreed to do so, some of the soldiers behind were unimpressed, in their opinion, there was no intelligence ahead, and they must have broken through the black sheep department that was not self-sufficient..... Now it's called the Beast King Department, and it's probably slaughtering for fun, this kind of viscount tribe still has a lot of population, enough for those soldiers to be happy, and many people sigh why they don't have the opportunity to participate in this overwhelming battle.
The risk is not big, but you can also enjoy the fun of the slaughterhouse, wealth, cattle and sheep, women, tsk, low risk, high harvest!
Now I have to run to do this kind of errands, it is estimated that all the things that should be allocated over there have been allocated, and my group of people used to be unable to drink except for the red soup, the key is to watch others show off, there is no place to be angry, and now the head of the head actually wants his group to be polite to a stranger from outside, why? With his lonely cold suit B fan?
Lao Tzu hates pretending to be B Fan the most!
Several soldiers had bad intentions in their eyes, but under the stern eyes of the leader, they finally didn't get too impulsive, and they sat aside one by one with a depressed expression!
After approaching, the leader saw that Guo Lang was reading a book in his hand, and his expression suddenly became more respectful, and even the other soldiers looked a little more serious, although the royal court paid attention to martial arts, but they still respected those who could read and write, and even the knights of the royal court had to learn basic literacy and basic etiquette.
After the water boiled, the leader smiled and said, "Brother, we have boiled some dry food, do you want to have some?" ”
Guo Lang put down the books in his hand and glanced at them, these cavalry guards are the elite cavalry of the Grand Duke, their rations are very powerful, the dry food of the hands is made of beef floss, put it in milk and shake it when eating, the taste is not only excellent, but also hungry, nutritious, and then there are dehydrated vegetarian dishes, and air-dried mutton jerky, very rich.
Then he nodded, and he didn't shy away from it, and reached out to take the milk pot handed over by the leader, which was steaming hot after it was just hot, and a milky fragrance made people smell very comfortable.
He was dumbfounded and nodded, "Good thing, Knight of Huye?" ”
Several people straightened their backs when they heard this, the difference between knights and cavalry was a word, and the difference in status was thousands of miles, and the other party was calling them, which made them feel inexplicably cool.
Only a hint of strangeness flashed in the eyes of the leader of the team, the other party was obviously not a local, but he could recognize the logo of his group, either with a certain amount of experience and knowledge, or ...... He had seen people like his own.
"Sir, a bachelor?" The leader asked tentatively.
"It's not a ......" Guo Lang put the book aside and looked at the leader with an expressionless face.
The leader, who was staring at him a little uncomfortably, avoided Guo Lang's eyes slightly, and then said with a smile: "My name is Amur, and I am the guard under the Grand Duke of Hadan Batel of the Ye family, this time we have a total of three teams of cavalry, have you ever seen our companions?" ”
"En....." Guo Lang unceremoniously took out a piece of jerky, tore a section and put it in his mouth, and then frowned: "It's so salty!" ”
"And where have they gone, far from here?" Seeing this, Amur's eyes lit up and hurriedly asked, for some reason, as soon as he entered the territory of this Snow Wolf Plain, he felt that something was not right, and there was always an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
And logically speaking, several teams of scouts will leave marks on each other and converge in some places, but their group has been here for most of the day, not only have they not seen the figures, but the marks are like.... Interrupted.
"Dead!" Guo Lang casually threw away the jerky and replied lightly.
"Dead?" Almu was stunned for a moment, and the surrounding cavalry suddenly exploded, and almost all drew their blades: "Let your mother's stinky fart!" You're looking for death, aren't you? ”
"Shut up!" Almu hurriedly shouted, and then ignored his subordinates, but turned his head and said seriously: "Mr. is a cultural person, don't joke about this kind of thing!" ”
Guo Lang didn't even look at him, just threw a piece of firewood into the fire, and said coldly: "Am I very familiar with you?" Need to joke with you? ”
Almu frowned: "Can you tell me how they died?" ”
Guo Lang turned his head to look at the other party, and mockery flashed in his eyes: "Of course they were killed, could it be that so many people could still fall to their deaths?" ”
Almu's eyes were cold, the other party's successive mocking tones were really annoying, he didn't refute at the first time, but turned around and looked at the people behind him, most of his subordinates were short-tempered, and he still had to ask for information, for fear that his subordinates would suddenly burst out and cut down the person in front of him.
But when he looked over, he found that his men were still in the same posture as when they turned around.... Motionless!
"What are you doing.... I'll tell you to put it...."Just after saying this, Almu suddenly felt a chill in his heart, he finally found that something was wrong, he was also strange just now, his subordinates were actually making no sound after being drunk by him, according to the usual situation, although they would listen to their own words, but they would inevitably scold and scold, and their faces were not happy, but those subordinates just now suddenly stopped making a sound after they turned around.
Now turning his head to see that they are still maintaining the action when they drew their weapons just now, one of them has a hideous expression, and he actually maintains the posture of opening his mouth and scolding angrily, as if he has been frozen, this strange scene makes Almu feel a chill rise all over his body.
"Dupa!" Almu shouted cautiously, Guo Lang on the side shook the fire with an iron rod, glanced at Almu, and then snapped his fingers, and then those soldiers who were originally frozen suddenly turned into a puddle of black water, weapons and armor were completely melted, and the scene was extremely terrifying!
"Ahh Almu stepped back violently and sat on the ground, but the next moment he landed and turned over violently, pulled out his blade and looked at Guo Lang with an iron face: "Who are you?" ”
"Oh?" Guo Lang looked at Almu with interest: "The qualifications are good......
What's going on? Almu pulled out his weapon and confronted Guo Lang with a nervous face, constantly thinking in his mind, the situation just now was too terrifying, is this person in front of him a wizard?
He had also heard the legend of the steppe wizard, but he didn't expect to see it, isn't this a fiction?
"Don't be so nervous, I'm going to do something to you, you're already like them." Guo Lang beckoned to him and motioned for him to come over.
Almu naturally didn't dare to approach, but instead looked serious, bowed down, maintained a tense posture of body muscles, and slowly retreated.
"I advise you not to go in that direction!" Guo Lang suddenly laughed.
"Huh?" Almu's pupils shrank, and he suddenly felt a piercing chill behind him, he turned his head stiffly, but saw that in the distance, I don't know when, there were a lot of green things like ghost fire, Almu squinted his eyes and took a closer look, but he was shocked to find that those ghost fire-like things were actually .... It's actually eyes! And the owner of those eyes is a frost wolf three points bigger than a horse, one by one baring his teeth and roaring, slowly approaching!
The horses of his own group just now had already leaned over the ground at some point, trembling, and there was no sound at all.
"Don't you want to know how your accomplices died?" Guo Lang smiled weirdly: "Do you understand now?" Your Grand Duke's 5,000 cavalry vanguard has been wiped out, and the reason for not sending back the news is not as good as you think. After a pause, he said coldly: "But not a single living mouth escaped!" ”
