Chapter 543: Hold your ground
Danyu City, the city defense army is eating, no matter what period, military food is the first guarantee, no one will starve the army if there is a hunger, even if there is a famine, they will do their best to ensure military food, otherwise it is not a joke for these people with ordnance to mutiny.
In addition, Bolton's previous food relief temporarily relieved the urgent need, and the food in the army was also much better.
At this time, the soldiers were sitting in groups in front of the cauldron, eating and chatting:
"I can finally let go of my stomach and eat, who would have thought that there would be a day of famine in Danyu City."
"While the food is still sufficient, eat as much as you can, and one day Prince Bolton will run out of food, and then it will be time to starve again."
"Do you think the people are really going to forcibly burn those wheat stalks regardless of whether the people live or die?"
"Who knows, anyway, I've already sent money to my family and let my wife and children take refuge in other cities, and I don't care what happens here."
"Shhhh My wife and children haven't left yet, so I'll let them stay at home and don't go out, it's going to be fine, right? ”
"Hurry up and let them go out to hide, many nobles have begun to move, and those who remain in the city are those civilians and slaves who can't afford to go far away, so they can go or leave quickly."
...
"Whew-"
While the soldiers were chatting, a dull horn sounded from the watchtower, signaling that the outpost had observed the approach of an unknown force.
As an inland city, Danyu City rarely has foreign invasions, and the soldiers' reactions are not as sharp as the border guards, and they paused for several seconds before putting down the bowls one after another, picking up their weapons and running up the city wall, looking out.
At the end of the horizon, there was originally a verdant green, and a black dot suddenly appeared, and then stretched into a line, sweeping like a black wave, and if you look closely, you will see that every part of the black tide is a cavalry in black shirts.
"Boom-" The dull sound of horses' hooves thundered, and the banner of death on a black background fluttered, and I don't know if it was a coincidence, when the cavalry crossed, the dark clouds in the sky also fluttered to obscure the sun, and the light curtain disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the world became dark, as if death was coming.
One of the commanders recognized the army's banner and reported to the commander, "This is the banner of the Death Legion in Twilight. ”
"Holy... Why another one?! "The commander wants to scold his mother, the city defense army was tossed by Bolton's personal guard legion a few days ago, and finally sent the prince away, his ass was not hot, and another legion came, when will Danyu City become a public toilet that can come and leave when you want?!
However, since they were friendly troops, most of them were sent by the royal family, so the commander told the soldiers not to act rashly, and then rode out of the city to meet them in person.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the Death Legion is not as good as any of the four elite legions of the kingdom for the time being, but in terms of mystery, no legion can match it.
The Death Legion, the only unit in Dogulander that specializes in fighting against visitors from the sky, legend has it that every soldier knows how to use blasphemous weapons from beyond the sky, which casts a veil of inscrutable elusion for them, plus all the men are dressed in black shirts, which is very imposing, and it is inevitable that the pressure will increase when facing them.
In front of the Death Legion, a general armed with a black sword stood on horseback, and there he was... Pick your nose.
Who else can openly pick his nose on such an occasion, it can only be Lugo.
The commander stepped forward, and before he could speak, Lugo said lazily, "Change the guard." ”
The commander peed directly, what is going on with the friendly forces now, and he has to change his guard without saying a word??? Is the city defense something you can change if you want to?!
It's just a personal guard legion, the lord of the family is His Royal Highness the Prince, I really can't afford to provoke it, but your Twilight City and my Danyu City are both directly governed cities, and the military and political classes are at the same level, not to mention that you are only a vanguard general, not the main general, why should Lao Tzu be a city defense commander to listen to you?
The commander's face was not very good, so he held back his swear words and said patiently, "Please ask your general to come out and talk to me." ”
Lu Ge scolded: "Shang, your mother, get out, you want to see the general, you are also worthy?" Hurry up and tell your people to roll down from the city, or Lao Tzu will beat you. ”
The commander's face is blue, what is the situation with this dead legion? This kind of spitting scoundrel can also be a pioneer general? His temper also came up, and he choked back: "The change of defense requires the transfer of the military commander, first let your general go into the city to bring the order, and then talk about the change of defense." ”
"Your uncle, give! Old! Child! Crawl! Without saying a word, Lugo pulled out an AK47 from the space ring and fired at the ground in front of the commander.
"Tubu, Tubu, Tutu—" The muzzle of the gun flickered, and the 7.62mm bullet smashed the ground into stone chips, and the huge gunfire tortured the eardrums mercilessly.
Horses are very susceptible creatures to noise, and the horses of the Death Legion have been trained in the modern battlefield developed by Chino, and they dare to walk through the rain of bullets, regardless of the sound of gunfire.
However, the horses of other legions are all localized training, and they dare to charge in the face of the enemy, not afraid of the rain of arrows, that's all, as soon as they encounter the AK47, a strange modern weapon, the animal instinct is stimulated by the sound of gunfire, and one by one they immediately panic out of control.
"Hiss-" I saw the commander's war horse neighing in panic, and kept running and kicking, directly shaking the commander to the ground and fleeing to the city in embarrassment.
The commander was stunned, and before he could come back to his senses, Lugo was already laughing, carrying the Night Knife in his left hand and the AK47 in his right hand, and swaggering into the city with the army in the rear.
After entering the city, Chino showed the blank king's edict to the Danyu city defense army, and the city defense army understood, and honestly changed the defense, not daring to say anything.
Then, something strange happened.
In the public's perception, Chino, known as the "Twilight Death", has always been a decisive and resolute person, but after the Death Banner was raised on the wall of Danyu City, the Death Legion did not take any action, but was silently stationed here, doing what they should do, and it seemed very leisurely.
Chino himself also kept his door closed in the tent, except for the occasional walk and activity, he did not do anything else.
The officials of Danyu City had already imagined various situations and agreed with each other on how to deal with various emergencies after the arrival of the death legion, but who knew that after these people entered the city, they were as quiet as virgins and did not move, which directly confused the officials.
But it is precisely this abnormal quietness that makes people feel more and more undercurrents surging and psychological pressure doubles.
In the afternoon of the same day, the officials of Danyu City could not hold their breath, and the consul's office soon sent messengers to the military camp to make contact with them.
However, Chino didn't see anyone behind closed doors, and he had no intention of communicating at all, which also made the officials of Danyu City more and more unpredictable about his heart.
What the hell is this guy planning? ...
