Chapter 708: Griffin Plague (14)
PS: The land game at home in the middle of the night was broken.,As a result, it can't be updated.,And repairing a land game didn't get it done until tonight.,So I merged today's hair with the one owed in the middle of the night.。
"Have you gotten all the supplies?" After pulling the largest box full of cannonballs from the boat with ropes, when the boat was hoisted by ropes, and several Umbar pirates who had been on the boat landed on the Hawker from the boat, the captain of the Hawker Assault Ship, wearing the new navy uniform, asked the sailors who had boarded the battleship.
PS: The so-called new naval uniform, in fact, is the naval uniform of the Great Voyage Period, the difference is that Sun Lin hates the snow-white leggings, and the cotton leggings are also expensive, so the cotton leggings will only let those captains, naval officers and even sailors on the ship during the military parade, under normal circumstances, the captain is wearing a suit jacket and loose linen pants, as for the sailors, they continue to wear those sailor suits, of course, because the sailors have no dress requirements, The sailors who never set the sun generally sail in relatively cold areas, so in addition to the cotton coats and triangular hats provided by the military department, many sailors of the great empire will seize the clothes of the enemy, and Sun Lin and the military department will not stop their sailors for some images, which leads to the dress of the sailors who do not set in the sun during the non-combat period has become very fancy, and even some sailors with long hair have seen the strange hairstyles in various regions and imitated them. It has become the fashion frontier of the clothing industry that has sprouted in the great empire of the sunset, and according to statistics, more and more aristocratic ladies and even the majority of men in the country have begun to imitate the appearance of the sunset sailor, and buy the "dead man's clothes" that the sunset sailor has picked from the fleets of various countries. And it is worth mentioning that this made the most well-informed Sunset Commercial Guild once again make a fortune for the Sunset Empire after a large number of imitations of all kinds of sailors.
"I've got it all." Although spring has arrived, after all, it is only the beginning of spring, even if the snow and ice have melted. But the biting cold wind in the air could not melt like snow, so the old sailor, who had replied to his captain, could only say a few English words in a trembling tone, and then had to take out from his waist a low-quality cigar that looked as if it had been soaked in seawater but was eventually dried, and after lighting it with a fire breaker, he continued to say to his superior: "Captain, all the supplies have been obtained, and these things are enough for us to continue sailing at sea for about a month. So can we go on that mission now? ”
"Don't worry, the order hasn't been sent from above yet, and before that, we still press the old .........." At this moment, a sharp-eyed war eagle passed through the biting cold wind. After being swept by the afterglow of the captain of the Hawker assault ship, he landed firmly beside the captain of the Hawker assault ship.
"Let me see what this little guy has brought us first." The captain of the Hawk assault ship said to the Umba pirate beside him while starting to get the letter from the warhawk's leg: "Get this little guy some food and drink, and you can still deliver messages on the sea long distances in such a cold weather, I really don't know how the members of the Horse Herding Guild of our Great Empire where the sun never sets back then managed to cultivate such a strong little guy." ”
"Yes, Captain ......., your face doesn't seem to look good. Is something wrong? When the Umbar pirate nodded in response to his captain's command, the Umbar pirate immediately noticed. The captain standing in front of him looked through the information in his hand. Although his face did not become very ugly, as the time of browsing increased, the captain's face became more and more solemn, which made the Ambar pirate in front of him feel a little uneasy at the same time, and at the same time, he couldn't help but ask out loud, after all, he was also the first mate of this Hawker assault ship. Of course, there is a certain right to know the contents of the letter.
"We were negligent." After putting down the information in his hand, the captain of the Hawk assault ship said in a slightly unwilling tone: "I didn't expect that under the reconnaissance network of nearly 50 Hawk assault ships on our side, the group of transport vanguard carrying nearly one-fifth of the Griffin Empire would choose to make a detour from the northern region of the Central Continent to the Abinua Islands in the February weather that the Griffin Empire race could not adapt to. Now this force has circled back to the Western Regions of the Central Continent and landed at the junction between the Western Regions of the Central Continent and the Southern Regions. ”
"Ahh So what's going on at the front now? After hearing the information revealed by the captain of the Hawk assault ship, the face of the Hawk Assault Ship's Amba pirate first mate changed instantly, and asked in a very anxious tone, after all, the quality of the Lower Maginot Line is the key turning point in the battle between the three empires, and more importantly, in the Lower Maginot Line, not only guarded several famous generals of the Great Empire, but also guarded the greatest figure of the Great Empire, Sun Linmian, the emperor of the Empire.
"Whew." After breathing a sigh of relief, the captain of the Hawk battleship said to his first mate in a very happy tone: "The good news is that not all the troops transported by the Griffin Empire this time are not all, and they are not much, so it has no impact on the Maginot Line for the time being, but there is also bad news, that is, the encirclement and suppression plan for the more than 100,000 dwarven legions of the Holy Light Empire formulated by Sun Lin, because of the appearance of those Griffin Great Empire soldiers, In addition, the griffon army of the Griffon Empire was defeated by the cover of the air battle, and after the battle, our soldiers only wiped out half of the estimated number, and the rest were saved by the forces of the Griffon Empire. ”
"What! Even the Griffin Knights were dispatched? After hearing the Griffin Knights, as the first mate of the Ambar pirates who had never seen anything in the world, he couldn't help but scream because he had been affected by the bipedal wyvern knights of the Orc Great Empire for a long time, which made the captain of the Hawk Warship as his boss feel amused, but he didn't say anything, after all, when he saw the Royal Griffin Knights of the Sunset Empire, the situation was not much better than that of the Umbar pirate first mate in front of him, The reason why he has become so calm now is because of the "high vision" brought about by the promotion of his official position, which allows him to know more of the essence of things.
"Don't be careful, this group of griffon knights is almost zero threat to our navy and our army of the Great Empire on which the sun never sets, after all, the griffon knights of the Great Griffon Empire are traditional air combat knights, while our griffon knights who never set the sun are auxiliary air knights. Or it can be said that it is the only air-to-ground air combat knight in the whole king continent.......... anyway, I guess you can't understand how much I say, you just need to know that the combat power of the griffin knights of the Griffin Great Empire when this group of people came was not comparable to the bipedal Wyvern knights of the Orc Great Empire, and they could barely hunt and kill the soldiers on the ground like the bipedal Wyvern knights of the Orc Great Empire. ”
"Oh, Captain, what's going on now, will the War Department punish us soldiers on the Hawker assault ship?" Just as the captain of the Hawker Assault Ship thought, the first mate who couldn't read a few words really couldn't understand most of what he said, but at least the important part of this guy understood, and this can be seen from his bloody face when he saw it, and then. The first mate of the Amba pirates, who may have been a little energetic in his own right, but was sealed off because of the ghost weather of early spring, asked the captain the question that the captain of the Hawk assault ship wanted to know the answer to when he read nearly half of the information in his hand.
"The good news is that we Hawker assault ships will not be punished for this matter, because His Majesty Sun Lin Mian has not thought about who to blame for this matter. And even if Sun Linmian lowers the punishment, it will not be the members of our Hawk fleet who will be punished. The captain of the Hawk assault ship said, "Because this matter is the first to know about the movements of the Griffin Empire." It should not be our fleet of Hawker assault ships. It should be the intelligence organization of our Great Empire, after all, the personnel of our intelligence network have infiltrated all levels within the Griffin Empire, so Sun Lin did not blame our Hawk assault ship group, of course, while there is good news, there is also bad news, that is, these fleets have escaped under the surveillance network of our fleet after all. So we have to take some responsibility for the Hawker assault ship group, and this responsibility is for us to do it. ”
As he spoke, the captain of the Hawker assault ship took out a fountain pen that had been distributed to every officer who knew 500 English words since the beginning of this year. Write a "blue" on the palm of your hand to your first mate and read it out (approaching, this guy can only listen to English, can't read or write!)
"The fleet of the Great Griffon Empire?"
PS: Although the sea is blue, it is very strange that all the forces have never used blue in the background color of the naval flag, and the only battle flag that uses blue as the background color is the army of the Human Alliance, the battle flag with silver shield, hammer, and big sword as the symbol, and the battle flag with light blue as the background color of the flag, and the golden griffin used by the griffin empire in the sea area is now the battle flag with the sea blue as the background color of the flag, so all the forces that fight against the navy of the griffin empire in the naval battle, The navy of the Griffin Empire is called the Blue Army or the rotten snail (this is the term used by the sailors of the Eastern Continent when the prosperous Zhou Tian Empire fought against the Griffin Empire that had not disintegrated, and the sailors of the Eastern Continent insulted the sailors of the Griffin Empire, and it is very peculiar that the Chinese of the Eastern Continent and the original world are more similar in the pronunciation of some words, such as "blue" and "rotten", so the language of the Eastern Continent also has a place of close phonetic words, and the "rotten" in the "rotten snail" is the homonym of "blue", As for the snail, it was because at that time, the Griffin Empire was very powerless to deal with the mechanical express ships in the Eastern Continent, and widely used the turtle shell battleship that made all kinds of weapons on the Eastern Continent mechanical express ship unable to gnaw on, and the people of the Eastern Continent wanted to destroy this turtle shell very much, and the movement speed of the turtle shell battleship was very slow, so the sailors of the Eastern Continent called the fleet of the Griffin Empire a rotten snail.
"That's right, it's the fleet of the Great Griffon Empire." The captain of the Hawk Assault Ship said to his first mate: "Of course, with the combat strength of our Hawk Assault Ship, if we go to confront the four fleets of the Griffin Empire, we will definitely be killed, so the task given to us by Sun Lin is to attack and harass." ”
"Harassment?" At the junction of the Western Regions of the Central Continent and the Southern Regions of the Central Continent, in the huge tent, the one wearing super heavy plate armor but not equipped with weapons, was the supreme commander of the Dwarven Legion of the Holy Light Great Empire who immediately ordered the whole army to evacuate the beach after seeing the figure of the Sunset Fleet, and when he heard that in front of him, the Griffin Great Empire, which was two feet taller than himself, landed at the junction of the Western Regions of the Central Continent and the Southern Regions of the Central Continent, leading 150,000 soldiers of the Great Griffin Empire, including 20,000 people Bow and Arrow Empress troops, The 30,000 Griffin Empire miscellaneous troops looked incredulous after the commander of the 100,000 dark blue heavy armor warriors proposed it, and then they began to laugh loudly in a very crazy manner: "Attack? Hahaha! Harassment? Where are you griffon empires supposed to be? Could it be the backyard of your great griffon empire? How dare you come up with an assault? Haha....... I'm glad you didn't mention the night attack, otherwise I would have been laughed to death by this word, ha............ha
"Your Excellency General Hall!" Looking at this dwarf, who was just the leader of a large legion, actually mocking the general of the Griffin Great Empire who was the best at mountain warfare in front of him, a legion leader of the Deep Blue Heavy Armor Legion of the Griffin Great Empire who participated in the meeting couldn't help but stand up and said in a questioning tone to the supreme commander of this army of the one-eyed Griffin Great Empire, obviously hoping that Hall would give the dwarven officer of the Holy Light Great Empire who seemed to be in a state of madness in front of him a military law, and the leader of the extremely griffin Great Empire around him, Including the two griffons, the female captain of the Archery Empress unit also turned her attention to General Hall.
In this regard, the face of the general of the Griffin Great Empire did not make any expression, but turned to the captains of the surrounding Divine Light Great Empire. They waved their hands and said, "Your Excellency Bronze Whisker is an officer of the Holy Light Great Empire who came here a few months before us, and this plan of ours was made without referring to the combat effectiveness of the defenders of the sun never setting here, and there will be many mistakes in nature, and it is inevitable that it will be vetoed by people who know the situation of the army on which the sun never sets, so we should look at this matter rationally." But Lord Copperbeard, let's see if you are smiling like this and the scars after the war have not yet healed. Whether you need to go back to camp for a few days to rest. Or should I send a couple of military doctors to check you out? ”
"I'm calmer than usual, even when I'm fighting against your griffin empire." Just the next second after General Hall uttered his slightly sarcastic words, the dwarven officer known as the Brass Beard suddenly stopped his extremely crazy smile and said to General Hall in a very calm tone and face: "Do you want to know what I am doing for Lu?" It's very simple, I'll show you something and you'll understand. ”
With that, the dwarven officer walked out of the council's tent, ignoring the puzzled gazes of the humans around him. Then he walked in a few minutes later, and brought with him several broken weapons that had been damaged but had been cleaned and still glowing in some parts, and threw them on the round table of the council, and said to everyone, including General Hall, "Take a look at them yourself, and I'll show you them one by one when you're done." "Finished. Brass Beard stood with his hands on his chest, waiting for the Griffin Grand Empire officers and Hale to react.
In fact, there were not many things left on the round table of the council, and after everyone glanced at them, they found that these broken weapons were nothing more than those three types: a few arrows that had lost most of their bodies, a longbow with a broken string, and a strange knife-shaped weapon that was broken in two, but just these things also deeply attracted the attention of everyone present, almost 5 seconds after these broken weapons fell to the council round table, the officers of the dark blue heavy armor regiment took away the strange knife-shaped weapon that was broken in two, and the two female officers of the Bow Empress Army's troops got the arrows that could almost only be regarded as arrows with solemn faces, as for Hall, of course, they directly picked up the longbow, and after a period of silence, they said while everyone came back to their senses: "Purple shirt longbow." ”
"Purple shirt longbow? What is that? Isn't this longbow just an ordinary longbow? Several male officers of the Griffin Great Empire, including one of the female officers of the Archer Queen's troops, couldn't help but mutter, but at this time, the dwarven officer of the Great Divine Light Empire named Copperbeard suddenly raised his head and said to Hall, "I didn't expect that there were people with knowledge here. ”
"General, what is the purple-shirted longbow? This thing doesn't seem to be any different from a normal longbow except that it's a little darker in color, huh? An officer of the Great Griffin Empire couldn't help but say to Hall. And after hearing the question raised by his subordinates, the mountain officer of the Griffin Empire muttered, "It turns out that this is because of this. After that, the adjusted emotions were explained to everyone present under the gaze of everyone.
"I think everyone should know that to this day, the strongest long-range infantry recognized on the King Continent is the Luna Ranger Team of the Elf Clan (the Ranger Team here is also called the Druid Guardian Guard, which is essentially different from the Ranger Force of the Elf Clan, and its combat effectiveness and equipment are not at the same level)? But in fact, I want to say that this accepted fact was actually broken after the appearance of the Longbow Guards of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets a few years ago, and the reason is very simple, the Longbow Guards of the Empire of the Sun Never Fall have already defeated the Luna Ranger pair. ”
"What? How is this possible? "Obviously, for the news that his boss broke the news. All the officers of the Griffin Empire couldn't believe this, so everyone's faces showed disbelief.
"I know that everyone in the Dao is incomprehensible about this matter, and what I want to say is that in fact, the archery skills of human beings are indeed not as good as the archery skills of the elves, because the elves have a unique capital in this regard, but I think everyone should know that the popular saying in the army of the Great Empire is called: "War is not just about winning on the battlefield." "So what I want to tell you to borrow this sentence is that the value of a class is not only measured by individual soldier ability, sometimes other aspects of ability are equally important, in addition, some external things can also improve the strength of a class."
"Then I'm going to tell you about the Longbow Guards that we will face next, and that must be extremely wary of any battlefield in the army of the Great Empire on which the sun never sets. First of all. Although the intelligence organization of our Griffin Empire has been suppressed by the intelligence organization of the Sun Never Sets Empire this year, resulting in many deficiencies in intelligence collection, some important information has been obtained through the unremitting efforts of our intelligence personnel, and this includes the information of these members of the Long Guard, and even more information is shown. The longbowman of the Great Empire on which the sun never sets, his own talent in archery is mediocre in the process of comparing it with the archers of the elven clan. But when they cultivated, they had to sweat dozens of times more than the trained elven shooters. Because the members of these Longbow Guards are all warriors who have been training with bows and arrows since they were young, and even some members of the Longbow Guards have been trained in the army of the Sunset Empire since they were 6 years old (the system is a ghost), I want to ask you, a warrior who has been trained in the sunset militarization since the age of 6, when he stands on the battlefield at the age of 20, how strong will the battle that broke out be? It's been 14 years of practice, guys. And it's also sunset training! ”
PS: Although the sun never sets on the empire, although it first pays attention to the cooperation between soldiers and soldiers, and then pays attention to the combat ability of individual soldiers, this does not mean that the officers of the sun never set on the degree of discipline of soldiers have decreased, but with the increase of the time of drill, the degree of discipline increases. At the same time, the army that never sets the sun also pays attention to field combat capabilities, which can also be regarded as the ability to survive in the wild, and there are not many terrains in the territory of the great empire, that is, there are many ice fields, old forests in the mountains and barren mountains and mountains, so when the officers of the army want to be lazy, they are very conscious of the soldiers they train without being equipped with enough weapons and resources, and get them into these areas to let them play wild survival, can also cultivate its perseverance spirit, and the implementation is very simple, so why not use it (of course, the most important thing is that these soldiers came over like this, how can you do it without retaliating a few times)? Therefore, although the training of soldiers in the army where the sun never sets is not Spartan training in Sun Lin's seriousness, it is like this in the eyes of other powerful forces.
"This ............." everyone fell silent when they saw this, and as for the two female officers of the Griffin Empire's Archery Empress Army, they had already closed their mouths as if they were sealed with cement.
"Under the terrifying training, these longbowmen of the Sunset Army have become the best longbowmen in the human army, and even have certain qualifications to challenge the elven archers, but the elven archers must be better than these longbowmen from the sunset in archery, but what else? What do you think the elven archers can compare to these longbowmen besides archery? You must know that the sun never sets, these longbowmen are equivalent to veterans who have experienced several years of battlefield training, and they are already very experienced in terms of combat awareness and troop coordination ability, and even regard them as officers at the bottom of the army, in this case, in fact, I don't think I need to say, everyone should believe that if these guys confront the elven archers on the battlefield, they will definitely win. ”
After everyone nodded in unison, Hall continued: "Of course, I believe that there should be another idea in everyone's hearts, that is, the idea of confronting the elven archery troops alone in the forest, and what I want to talk about next is to break your worst assumptions, as for what I want to say, it is the purple-shirted longbow in my hand, and the arrows in Lady Linda's hand. ”
"It is rumored that in the West Continent and the Northwest Continent of the King Continent, there is a tree called Purple Shirt Wood, which is almost the same as ordinary trees, but its wood heart is different, because its wood heart is the best material for all the wood used to make longbows. This kind of wood called purple shirt wood itself is very tough, followed by good flexibility, and then the most important thing is that the wood heart of the purple shirt wood is straight and not easy to shoot crookedly, and in a certain case, the accuracy of the shooter's arrow is corrected, so the wood heart of the purple shirt wood has become a special raw material for the longbow of the longbow troops of the Sunset Empire, and it is even rumored that the Sunset Empire will continue to replace the purple shirt longbow every one to two years for the longbow troops. The specially invited elven people have opened up a huge forest area in the northwest continent to plant purple shirts, so now, you should know how big this broken longbow is, right? ”
"But, why do I always think that this longbow is not something that ordinary archers can wield?" A female officer in the Archer Queen's unit asked, to which Hawke replied with a smile: "Because of this, the soldiers of the Longbow Guard of the Empire on which the sun never sets need to train for so many years before they can go to battle, and the more difficult it is to pull the bow, the longer its range and piercing ability can become." ”
"Oh!"
"Then there are these arrows, of course, a few arrows......... I think your words about this arrow should be more convincing than mine, Lord Copperbeard. Hale suddenly raised his head and said to the dwarven officer of the Great Empire of Divine Light.
And under the gaze of everyone, the dwarf named Copperbeard said something with an ugly face that everyone present looked incredulous, including Hall: "We dwarves can't forge a better arrow, or even the same arrowhead, than this arrowhead." (To be continued......)
