The Lion King of Middenland, Warhammer

() When the storm against the No. 19 military station of the Rick Empire Expeditionary Force is about to unfold, the military station on the grassland is also solemn and orderly.A small-scale short celebration had already ended before sunset, and now the entire military depot has entered a state of strict alert.The gate of the military depot was closed tightly, and behind it was firmly supported by logs and horses. Hundreds of torches were ignited at a distance of [-] to [-] steps outside the trench, illuminating the nearby grasslands and small rivers.On the land between the trench and the wooden wall, there was a small fire pile every ten steps, which reflected the ten-foot-high wall red.But there was no fire on the crenels of the wooden wall, only many figures and spears were lined up between the crenels.

"Using this method, we can clearly see the enemy attacking from outside, and accurately shoot the artillery fire and crossbow bolts at the enemy, but the enemy cannot see our movement clearly, my noble Highness Hyde, this is what we defend at night A little trick."

The owner of the voice on the tower was the chubby Director Mount, who was introducing the night defense arrangement method to Hyde in front of him. In fact, the figures standing between the crenels were basically straw figures with hands in their hands. Holding a stick that pretends to be a spear.As for the real defenders, there are only 30 people at a density of [-] steps on the wooden wall of the entire military station, and only one head is exposed between the crenels for observation.Most of the soldiers on the night watch rested in shacks under the wall.After all, there is currently no enemy army besieging the city, so there is no need to exhaust the soldiers too much.

"Dear Your Excellency Mount, thank you for your enthusiastic advice. This method is good, and I will remember this strategy."

Hyde shook his cloak, and politely answered the fat supervisor's words.There are a lot of people in the military depot, and it doesn't take much to get these straw men, but they can only be used at night, but it is enough to scare the chaotic beasts with low IQ.When the enemy gathered at the foot of the city wall, this kind of straw man could also be lit and pushed down as a weapon for defending the city. The wooden wall was covered with three feet thick soil, so it was not afraid of fire.

"Don't dare, my noble Highness Hyde, if you hadn't rescued the marshal's wife, I really don't know what to do. Ah, I can't imagine how stupid I am at noon!"

The fat depot supervisor knocked himself on the head hard, which was not an act of hypocrisy.Hyde remembered the supervisor's extremely surprised expression when he and old Loren returned triumphantly in the afternoon and told the supervisor that there was the current frontline commander in the convoy—Marshal Yang's wife.Of course, this is indeed a surprising thing.

"I didn't expect this incident. Who would know that the Marshal's wife is in this convoy? In fact, even the knights who escorted the convoy didn't know about it. This is an amazing coincidence. But it shows that, Doing good deeds can not only be worthy of one's conscience, but also one's own destiny, respectable Lord Mount, do you agree with me?"

Hyde smiled, a smile full of accomplishment.Facts proved that his decision was correct, which made the young knight feel an irrepressible sense of pride.He's a straight guy who doesn't hide his feelings.

"I deeply agree with your opinion, His Royal Highness Hyde."

The fat executive named Mount took off his hat to salute Hyde, and then continued to explain his defensive strategy to the young knight with a humble smile.

"Your Highness Hyde, after you left, I have sent messengers and carrier pigeons to the adjacent military depots, and I have also sent messenger eagles to the nearest imperial court and Kislev army garrisons. A large number of chaotic beasts appeared in the Behind the supply line is a big deal, I'm sure our cavalry will be here in two days, find out where they're hiding, and give them a serious blow. But tonight and tomorrow is a dangerous time, and the beasts of chaos may seize this Attacks on us or adjacent military depots during the time period, so we must take strict precautions."

"You are right, my lord Mount. However, judging from my confrontation today, there is nothing to fear from Chaos Beasts. In the encounter in the morning, I killed seven by myself. In the battle in the afternoon, I cut off the heads of another 22 ram horns, and I felt like I was killing them. Of course, I also suffered a little injury, but thanks to Goddess Sarya, the wound has been covered by her kind believers Healed. In a sense, I am looking forward to their arrival, and I will use my hands to punish them more severely."

Hyde confidently looked at the torch outside the wooden wall, and he involuntarily held down the sword at his waist.The torches jumped and changed in the cold autumn night, illuminating a small piece of grassland around them, while the wider grassland was silent, with occasional wild birds chirping across the black sky, Adding a touch of vitality to this silent cold night, he paused and continued his emotion.

"During the battle at noon, the leader of these chaotic beasts fled without a fight, which made me very unsatisfied. I still want to take off its head. If it comes tonight, I will send its head to the noble station As a welcome gift, its four big horns are a good decoration hanging on the top of the city. The greatest value of the Chaos Beast is nothing more than that."

Hyde's proud voice echoed on the tower, this was what he said in his heart.When the Chaos Beast crumbled, the blond young knight almost jumped into the middle army of the Chaos Beast alone. It was Old Loren who stopped him and told him not to chase too hard when the number of people was too small. It is a major event to cover the convoy entering the depot.Hyde agreed with old Loren's opinion intellectually, but emotionally he always felt a little unsatisfied, because his hatred for those sheep-headed beasts was too deep.

"I will be honored to accept His Highness Hyde's gift. A gift from a god-favored person is worth looking forward to. But I must also point out that we must not underestimate the enemy too much. Among the beasts of chaos, there are also powerful Minotaurs." They exist, they are powerful opponents, and they are definitely not easy to deal with. Moreover, behind these chaotic beasts may be real warriors of the Chaos Legion. The object of comparison. In my 30 years of military career, I have fought against them many times. Facing their horror can make people feel involuntarily trembling. A chaotic knight tops hundreds of chaotic beasts, this is by no means My lies, and they may well be here."

The fat supervisor named Mount pressed his leather-gloved hand on a bronze snake cannon, and answered Hyde's words without saying a word.The chunky middle-aged soldier keenly sensed the pride in Hyde's words, so he poured cold water on the young knight at the right time. This was not finding fault, but a reminder from an elder who had been through battles to the younger generation. , maybe he would not do this to other nobles, but he sincerely felt that Hyde was worthy of his words.

"I understand that the Chaos Legion is by no means comparable to Chaos Beasts, but I am not afraid of them. Of course, I will not underestimate the enemy. I would like to thank you for your precious reminder, respected Your Excellency Mount."

There was a little displeasure in Hyde's voice. Today's two victories made his heart swell a little.But he still answered Director Mount politely.He is, after all, a man of etiquette.

"Your Highness Hyde, please take a look at my leg, which records the imprint brought by the Chaos army back then."

The chubby executive opened his fat trousers, and illuminated it with the oil lamp in his hand. There was nothing below the knees, only the wooden calves were left in the shoes. His voice became a little heavy.

"This injury was suffered in a battle ten years ago. Back then, I served as the captain of the Light Artillery Battalion in the Rick Ninth Army of the Imperial Court. During that battle, we assembled two and a half armies of more than 3 people. Soldiers, deal with a chaotic army with only more than 8000 people who believe in strange and evil gods. Our army has more than 1 cavalry and more than 100 cannons, while the Chaos army has only [-] cavalry and seven hell cannons. Your Highness Hyde , you might think it was an easy fight, but it wasn't.";
