Chapter 56 2.14 First Battle (1)

When the 30 warriors of Hanshui Village rode the giant wolf and rushed out of the village, another group of Viking warriors were galloping on horses with axes in their hands on the official road 700 miles away from them.

The leader was the young city lord of Wuya Town: Das Gunk.

"Hurry up! Run away! Brothers, work hard for a few days, and all the silver coins will be ours when the city is broken!"

"We must hurry up! If we go too late, that little white-faced ghost will hear the news and run away again! At that time, none of us can escape the punishment of the Duke!"

Duke Bernard gave old Gunk 300 shield axe soldiers and 200 war horses. He organized these troops into 200 cavalry and assigned them all to Das for command.

He had only one purpose: to get his son to Hanshui Village as soon as possible and resolve this battle within 10 days. Otherwise, if it was delayed for too long and entered the deep winter with a temperature of minus 70 degrees, even if he had an absolute advantage in military strength, he would inevitably lose personnel due to the excessive cold.

For this reason, although all the commanders who led troops to fight knew that it was a taboo to divide the troops without reason. But at this time, Old Gongke's troops were already superior to the extent that they could be squandered at will.

Even if only with these 200 cavalrymen, they suddenly appeared outside the Hanshui Village and destroyed the unprepared Hanshui Village without any effort!

On the other hand, Das had many other ideas in his mind.

As the commander of Fog Duck Town, Old Gongke was thinking about how to occupy an outlet for building ships for Fog Duck Town and benefit the people of Fog Duck Town.

But Das Gongke was a 22-year-old hot-blooded and impulsive young man. At this time, he only had one person in his heart: "Siren" Ge Lin.

He didn't understand how he lost to Blind Mountain.

Blind Mountain is the Chosen One, and so am I!

Blind Mountain is Sequence 7, and so am I!

As a mountain dweller, I am taller and stronger than Blind Mountain! Why did Ge Lin fall for that stupid wooden stake and ignore me? !

Whenever he thought of this problem, the jealous fire that soared to the sky could burn his whole body, so that he often let out a heart-wrenching roar in the middle of the night against the wind and snow.

This dispatch of troops was his chance to solve this problem.

According to Das's calculations. If he only appeared on the outskirts of Hanshui Village with 200 cavalrymen, Blood Pigeon Town, which had 600 elite troops, would most likely send troops to help. And the reinforcements sent to help were likely to be Blind Mountain Blood Pigeon and "Siren" Green.

These two people hid in Blood Pigeon Town, and Das had no way to deal with them. But as long as the two of them walked out of the gate of Blood Pigeon Town to participate in the battle, they would hold on for a few days, and wait until they joined the 300 shield axemen who came later, they would definitely win this encounter!

You look down on me? Well! I'll kill your husband first, and then take you away!

This is the way the Vikings survive.

Thinking of Green's white and tender body like onion roots. Das only felt his blood boiling, and even the cold wind blowing across his cheeks could not soothe his irritable blood.

After being married to Blind Mountain for two years, she has not given birth to a child and is still in her prime!

If he could get her, they would live in Hanshui Castle and revel every night. Thinking of the evil scenes, he felt that he suddenly had endless strength all over his body.

"Quick! Run for me! Don't feel sorry for the horses! The Duke said that as long as the village is captured, our advance troops can massacre the city for three days!"

"Hanshui Village is rich this year. As long as these horses can support the outskirts of the village, the gold and silver looted from the village will be enough for us to spend for three years!"

"What else do you want! Hurry up and charge!"

More than 200 cavalrymen held torches high and rushed towards Hanshui Town like a stream of fire in the dark night. Although the "tundra stilt horses" produced locally on the peninsula are excellent, the Viking men riding on horseback are generally two meters tall, and each of them carries equipment and supplies weighing more than dozens of kilograms.

The maximum distance these horses can run in a single run is about 150 kilometers.

Hanshui Town is about 500 kilometers away from Fengxi Fort, and it takes three days for horses to run normally. But Das urged the whole army to run fast like a ghost, and hardly let his men rest along the way.

"The key to cavalry is speed! We are marching so loudly, and the yellow-haired village chief of Hanshui Village will definitely know that we are moving forward halfway! If he runs away with silver coins and gold bars, where can we catch him in this damn winter!"

"We must surround Hanshui Village and keep everyone in the village before he can escape!"

"We must reach our destination within two days!"

Das turned into a demon, roaring and cheering for all the team members around him. The 200 cavalrymen were all from Fengxi Fort. They also wanted to break through Hanshui Village earlier and join the looting earlier. Anyway, the horse under the buttocks did not belong to the Duke, so even if he was really exhausted, he would not lose anything.

Everyone galloped with all their strength.

The horses' hooves kicked up bursts of snow, and the hot air exhaled by 200 horses at the same time made this army like a train on a pipeline. Das traveled day and night, and rested for less than eight hours in two days. When his men and horses were all on the verge of collapse, he finally entered the coniferous forest outside the Snow Grave Valley.

This place is only a dozen kilometers away from Hanshui.

Although Das is impulsive and lustful, he is also a veteran with nearly ten years of fighting experience. Following the old Gongke and being influenced by him, no matter how anxious he was, he could see that his men were hungry and cold after running for several days, and their physical strength was exhausted.

The horses under his crotch were foaming at the mouth, and it was very difficult for them to even stand.

His troops continued to rest.

He looked up at the sky. At this time, the sky was already pale. Das spat angrily and issued an order to find a camp.

"Today, we will rest temporarily during the day!"

"Scouts go out to find a leeward basin or cave as a future camp. Others tie up the horses and surround the tents together!"

The cavalrymen of Fog Duck Town jumped off their horses. They covered the horses with bear skins, and then surrounded the two hundred horses in a circle to form a wall. The tall horses produced in the tundra in the north of the peninsula are much more resistant to cold than humans. They block the wind on the outside, so the Viking warriors can place tents in the circle without worrying about the tents being blown away by the cold wind.

A dozen big men wielded giant axes to chop down a big tree and split it into firewood. They lit a bonfire outside the animal skin tent, broke the cold and hard bread they carried with them, stuck it on a stick and roasted it crispy and soft.

The soldiers who had eaten and drunk enough took out the oatmeal cakes in the package and fed them to the exhausted horses. The food went into the stomach, the blood sugar rose, and the warm campfire stimulated the tiredness in everyone's eyes. Even Das, who had been fighting all the way, was covered with animal skins, and his eyes were drowsy.

However, at this moment, he suddenly heard a gentle singing in his ears!

The singing was mixed with the biting cold wind, and it sounded weak and distant. In the graceful singing, the tone and lyrics kept changing with the cold wind, making it impossible to tell whether it was real or illusory.

At first, Das thought it was just an illusion caused by his thoughts of Ge Lin in his mind. But when he lifted his tired eyelids with force, he was surprised to find that all the soldiers around him were actually staggering and falling into a coma!

They were either lying in the tent or leaning against their companions. Some of them even had a piece of bread in their mouths, and fell asleep in the snow!

(No, normal people would not fall asleep so quickly!)

After shaking his dizzy head, Das pulled out the dagger from his waist and cut his palm fiercely. The bright red blood gushed out, and he smeared the blood on his eyes and ears, and sure enough, all the sleepiness disappeared!

"Bastards! Get up!"

Dath's shout used his "Berserker Path" sequence 7, the power of "Cold Land Warrior". A red sound wave spread with his howl, and a little blood mist fell on the faces of his subordinates, making them sober instantly.

The siren's song was to cover up the strong wolf smell of the approaching wolf. Seeing his subordinates awake with red eyes, Das Gonk clenched the two hatchets in his hands and stared at the dark woods not far ahead.

In the thick darkness, he saw a dozen green eyes. Those were the eyes of the Ice Wolf that glowed in the darkness.

A great battle was just around the corner.
