Chapter 446
A few people left the house and continued to explore the city, dividing into three groups for efficiency, Hanan took Charlie to the east, Jessica and Harvey to the north, and Akin went to the west alone.
It had been nearly an hour since several people from Yuenan entered the city of 'Dia', and Farafola led his men and horses to advance five miles to the northeast, and then stood in formation, and the sentries kept going back and forth to report the intelligence ahead.
The more than 1,000 people he led this time, belonging to the most elite men and horses of the rebels, since the beginning of the 'uprising' a few years ago, have experienced countless large and small wars, and those who can live until now have crawled out of the pile of dead people, which can be called a hundred battles.
Farafola took a deep look at Dia City, but still did not find the trace of several people in Yunan, and couldn't help frowning, Dia City is not big, if it is only a rough investigation, it should also come back to report the letter, is there really something strange in the city?
Farafola arranged for Hanan to go with a few people, in fact, he had the intention of examining.
Although on the wanted warrant, the bounty of Yuenan is as high as 40 million.
But over the years, Farafora has seen many people who are not worthy of the name, some of the so-called big people who defected to the rebels, there is no lack of sand bandits with high bounties, but above the battle formation are silver guns and wax heads, so Farafola does not believe much.
Moreover, Farafolachi took Yu Nan and the others, and also meant to protect them.
He has always believed that the army has little use for large-scale combat and individual bravery, and at most plays an exciting role in the part, but does not help the whole war.
Tanma has confirmed the military situation, there are many enemies at the moment, it should be the elite troops of the king's army, the combat strength should not be underestimated, if the Hanan people are accidentally caught in the battle formation, it is difficult for Farafla to take care of them.
Farafola believes that Hanan can sell weapons to his own side, and he can be regarded as an ally of the rebel army, naturally he can't let them have accidents, not to mention, the weapons and equipment have not yet been delivered, and they have to be carefully protected, which allows Hanan to go to the city to inquire about the news, not to mention that his subordinates reported early, there are only a small group of enemies in the city, if they can't even deal with these, the 40 million pirates, don't say anything.
Farafola said to the heralds beside him: "The whole army is ready, check the equipment, and line up the attack formation." He
didn't even plan to wait for Yu Nan to return, so he had to set off, in fact, he already knew that there were no people in the city.
In the fierce battle ahead, there was a unique signal for help from the rebels, and the time it took to support Yunan, in addition to allowing the headquarters to recover their strength, was also the final preparation before attacking.
With the order, more than a thousand soldiers stood up, checked their weapons, and loaded their ammunition.
On the left flank were three hundred light cavalrymen, all drawing their combat knives, and relatively light long and short muskets hung on their horses, and they could fire one round when they were close to the enemy.
The forward and right flanks are infantry on camels, all dismounted and shooting at guns when engaged, and there are special cold weapon detachments that are good at close combat, and when it comes time to chase the enemy, they will ride their mounts and rush over.
In the position of the Chinese army where Farafola was located, in addition to sixty fierce guards, there were more than a hundred reserves.
The horse on which the reserve rides is a high-headed war horse in a water, and the most well-equipped, it is an extremely rare heavy horse in the desert, at this time there are special auxiliary soldiers busy on the side, helping the knight wear armor, the horse armor is made of metal, the weight is not light, and after special treatment, whether it is defensive or breathable, it is the best choice.
Generally speaking, the desert is not a suitable place for heavy riding, and these war horses are carefully selected.
Kou Shat deliberately invited experts from an external force, and after several years of rigorous training, the whole army only had 800 heavy horses, and this time he sent 100 people, which can be imagined how much Kou Sha attached importance to this operation.
With the wave of the flag of the Chinese army in Farafola, the army slowly moved forward, gradually approaching the distant hill, and the shouts of killing gradually became clear.
This area is close to the oasis city of Dia, and the desert terrain is only a small part, with a lot of dry and hard mud soil, and above the fierce hills, there are more woods, although most of them are still dominated by drought-tolerant vegetation.
Farafola ordered the whole army to stop, picked up the binoculars and looked at it, and in the distance to the west at the foot of the mountain, there were three slightly larger military formations, in which the flag was flying, the crowd was crowded, and the swords and guns were numerous.
So far away, you can feel a rush of anger rushing to your face.
Farafola carefully looked at the flag, couldn't help frowning, sure enough, it was the ace army of Alabastan, and when he saw the number, he was even more shocked, and couldn't help but silently say: "Royal Army?!" "
The royal army is the trump card in the ace army of Alabastan, always guarding the capital Albana, almost never going out to fight, but I didn't expect to be sent here.
Farafola probably estimated the number of royal troops, and the direction of the formation was his own side, and it seemed that the other side had already discovered that reinforcements were coming and was ready for battle.
The number of the two wings was equal to their own, and the number of Chinese troops in the position was the largest, and it seemed that they looked down on the posture of the rebel army.
Looking further back, in the distant camp, there was a separate scattered camp head.
There were not many people, about three hundred people, although they were all wearing the armor of the king's army, but they had no military temperament, some were sitting, some were riding horses, and some were smoking and chatting, and at a cursory glance, they only thought that they were a group of rabble.
Farafoula immediately noticed the difference, this group of people did not have any nervousness, all fierce, murderous, raised their hands, there was a feeling that they did not take human life seriously, but more like vicious sand bandits or pirates.
Farafola's face was livid, and he thought to himself: "Could it be the king's newly formed battalion?" Or is it a sand bandit who has been recruited? "
At the foot of the mountain, there is a dense army of kings, about two to three thousand people, which seem to be just ordinary low-level soldiers.
At this time, they were draining the water around the hill, and a large group of soldiers were retreating from the slope in embarrassment, presumably having just been retreated.
The path on the front of the hillside has been dyed dark red, and there are countless corpses on the ground, with different forms of death, layered on top of each other, and many sections of the mountain road have been blocked.
At this moment, these corpses are like part of a hill, motionless like stones and mounds, completely returning to nature.
Seeing that the enemy army retreated again, there was a cheer from the hill, the two-headed man sat on a large rock on the top of the mountain with his left arm and gasped, and his younger brother said to his brother with his right arm: "Left arm, finally retreated, let's rest first." The
left arm said in a deep voice: "Can't be careless, that is, the mountain road is narrow, the slope is not small, the opposing cavalry cannot be deployed, and there are not too many people at one time, plus our battalion is also strong."
I can hold on to this for a long time, but if there is no foreign aid, I am afraid that my two lives will have to be accounted for here. "
