Lord Chronicle

Chapter 180 Set fire to the mountain
"Although it's long-winded, I still want to ask again, are you really planning to do this?" Das touched his nose.

Sol smiled wryly and turned his head: "Is it still useful to say this now?"

"That's right." Das nodded and waved his hand: "Action!"

Behind him, hundreds of cavalrymen holding torches formed a long and intermittent line of fire and began to advance into the hills.

This is Sol's plan, very straightforward, just two words: arson!

It has to be said that this may be the largest man-made arson case in the history of Dinar, and it is indeed a crazy plan that is both genius and daring.

Thor's plan was simple. Since he couldn't stop the Black Armored Cavalry, let them divert and move the battlefield to the mountainous area that was most beneficial to him.

As for how to do it, it is estimated that it will be impossible to rely on Master Sol's omnipotent mouth.Then they had no choice but to rely on the power of the god of fire, Mulphades, to seal the road of the Black Armored Cavalry with fire, and simply give this hilly area a "booming fire" and force them to divert!
At present, it is a good time when autumn is high and the sky is dry and dry. A large number of deciduous trees, birches, etc. in the hilly area have lost dead branches and leaves all over the ground. A small flame may spread into a boundless fire, let alone such a large-scale man-made Arson.

When the fire comes together, all the hills in this area will be affected. The Black Armored Cavalry has no time to wait for the fire to be extinguished, nor can they return home. Naturally, they can only advance from the Götting branch to the Ruhrland.

Although this move is sorry for the poor animals living in the hilly area, and if Atriya knows about it, she may turn against Sol on the spot, but it is indeed the only quick and effective way at present.

However, from now on, in addition to titles such as "Almuk Four Bastards", "Royal City Libertine", "Sex Lover", and "Scumbag", Sol will have another reputation of "Super Pyromaniac" up.

"Master Saul, do you have to do this? It's a pity to burn so many trees." At this time, Vihir, who was behind Saul, said regretfully.

The frozen plateau lacks resources, and the most commonly used material is wood, but it is also very rare.Seeing that Sol was going to burn so many trees, Vihir couldn't help but feel a pity.

Kress on the other side also muttered: "Yeah, what a waste." People living in Lovell also love nature.

Saul has nothing to say about this. Of course he knows what environmental protection is, but at this time he can only work hard to the end.

At this moment, Das helped him out, and he patted Vihir: "I regret doing this too. But, Miss Vihir, do everything you can, this is war."

Nodding half understanding, Vihir stopped talking.

As a pure soldier, Kadav is concerned about another issue.He worried: "Is there enough time for the fire to ignite?"

Sol looked at the thick smoke rising in front of him, and said confidently: "No problem, although the vanguard came very quickly, the enemy is moving with the whole army after all, considering various factors, we still have more than half a day to go. Move, the fire is strong enough to spread the area."

"Besides, we still have that thing."

He was referring to the small beads invented by Mary, which were made specifically for arson. Sol distributed some to the soldiers in charge of arson, specially using them in places where it was difficult to start a fire, and guaranteed to be invincible.

Of course, Sol did not forget to sell at this time: "Hey, how about it, isn't that good? If it is paired with the incendiary bomb specially provided by our Lovell, the power will be even more amazing. Therefore, I hope the military will give more consideration to this item. into strategic procurement of materials.”

Finally seeing the demeanor of Lord Thor in the legend, Kadav was ashamed: "Uh... this, Lord Sol, please don't worry, I will report to the superior..."

At this time, Das said: "Messner has already led a large force to the Geting branch to ambush first. It seems that there is no problem here, let's go too."

At this moment, hundreds of fires have been ignited in the hilly area with a length of more than ten kilometers, and the billowing smoke almost blackened the sky.And under the action of soldiers roaming around on horseback, the fire is spreading at an alarming rate.

In the sea of ​​flames, animals fled in all directions in terror, screaming everywhere, birds wailing in the sky, coupled with raging flames and billowing smoke, it was as miserable as the end of the world.

It is conservatively estimated that there will be scorched earth within tens of kilometers afterwards.

Thinking of this, Sol couldn't help shivering.Damn, no matter what, we can't let the elves know that it's Lao Tzu's bad idea, otherwise Atria will cut off the master-student relationship with Jessica in a fit of anger, and I won't be able to live again when I go back.

There was no need to look any further at this point, and ordered the officer who led the fire to go to the Geting branch to join them after the fire was completely burned, and then Sol and his party pulled their horses away and headed for the ambush site.

The red flames, like a greedy demon, began to devour all the green...

****************************************************************
After half a day, when the vanguard of the first black armored cavalry came to the edge of the hill, what greeted them was a scene of hell shrouded in boundless flames.

In front of this vast field of fire, the black armored cavalry were also at a loss. They pulled the reins around the edge of the sea of ​​flames, letting the raging flames reflect their armor red, and the horses could not stop neighing in panic at their crotches.

Another hour later, a large troop of black armored cavalry also arrived here.However, no matter how invincible the killing machine is, it seems powerless in the face of this sea of ​​fire.

Therefore, for the first time, this terrifying army, which was calm and indifferent and frightened countless people, also experienced panic fluctuations for the first time.

However, the commander of the black armored cavalry didn't let this uneasiness last for long, but after a while, the cavalry regiment turned collectively, like a black tide, advancing along the edge of the sea of ​​fire to another place.

Over there, mountains stretched across the front.

Götting offshoot…

*******************************************************************
Here is a valley located in the middle of the Geting branch. The entire valley is sandwiched between two hillsides. The terrain is long and narrow, and it is the only road through this area.

At this moment, in the dense forests on the hillsides on both sides, countless eyes hidden deep inside are quietly watching the situation below.Here is the ambush location chosen by the Dinar Army.

In a dense forest on the left hillside, Thor, Das and others were anxiously waiting for the Black Armored Cavalry to enter the ambush circle.From here, you can still clearly see the thick smoke rising into the sky in the distance, which shows how powerful Sol's fire was.

Suddenly, there was a soft sound of wind behind Thor, and Kip appeared behind him without a sound.

"My lord, they have entered the mountain." He said to Thor.

"Okay, I see." Sol nodded.

Das beside him immediately became excited: "Sure enough, it's here."

His mood at the moment was both excited and nervous.Looking forward to the glory brought by defeating the Black Armored Cavalry, but also worried about facing such a powerful opponent.

In fact, not only him, but almost everyone in the army felt the same way at the moment.

At this time, the soldiers on guard at the heights could already see the black armored cavalry.

Those knights who criss-crossed the battlefield were all on foot at this time, leading their beloved horses to walk in the rugged mountains, and the whole team was stretched into a curved black line.

But even in the most unfavorable circumstances, this formidable army maintained a disciplined style.The entire team was silent, not a single cavalryman took off his heavy armor, and even the horses only neighed occasionally.

What is particularly admirable is that even though the formation is completely broken up, the entire team is not messy, and is still clearly divided into three parts: the forward, the home team and the rear team.It is conceivable that no matter what emergency they encounter, they will be able to respond immediately.

When the figure of this team gradually appeared in the eyes of the soldiers, everyone felt their scalps tingling.Fortunately, this is the mountainous area where the ability of cavalry is most limited. It is really hard to imagine how terrifying it would be to face these monsters on gentle hills or even plains.

Sol was not surprised that they were able to climb mountains and mountains.What is a war horse?When Hannibal entered Rome, he was even able to cross the Alps with an elephant.

After a while, the vanguard of the enemy had entered the valley, while the main force behind slowed down, waiting for them to pass through first.

The enemy can be clearly observed at close range. No matter how strong the opponent is, they are still human beings. After marching non-stop for a long distance and walking on mountain roads wearing armor, they are obviously tired.

Sol's goal was of course not this small team, so they allowed the vanguard to pass through without any danger.After the cavalry signaled the safety at the other end of the valley, the large troops behind finally moved into the valley slowly.

As the enemy gradually approached the center of the valley, the breathing of the soldiers ambushing on both sides involuntarily increased.

Under Kadav's silent gesture, everyone carefully drew their weapons and prepared for the coming fierce battle.

At this moment, as if there was some kind of tacit understanding, the surrounding mountains suddenly fell silent at the same time, and even the birds and beasts surprisingly did not make a sound, only the orderly footsteps of the black armored cavalry below echoed in the valley among.

In the air, there was a strange and depressing atmosphere.

Soon, the front end of the enemy's main force was close to the exit, and the large forces behind them also entered the valley.The best time to attack has arrived.

Crack... Darth slowly pulled out his sword.

Unexpectedly, as if telepathically, in the valley below, a knight leading an unusually tall and strong black horse suddenly turned his head and looked in this direction.

The sound of Darth drawing his sword could not be heard below. It can only be attributed to the fact that after experiencing life and death in countless battlefields, these black armored cavalry possessed a very mysterious sense of murderous aura.

The bewilderment in the knight's eyes flickered for a moment, and instantly turned into astonishment. Obviously, he had discovered the ambushes on both sides of the valley.

In the next moment, Thor reacted extremely quickly.Before the other party opened his mouth to scream, he yelled loudly: "Vihir!"

Knowing Vihir instantly picked up the spear, aimed at the knight and threw it.

At the same time that the spear shot down, Das also stood up from his hiding place: "Attack!"

In an instant, Dinar's soldiers, who had already been prepared, stood up densely from both sides of the valley.At the same time, a large number of logs rolled down towards the exits at both ends of the valley, completely sealing the valley.

Countless arrows, stones and other objects flew towards the black armored cavalry in the valley overwhelmingly.

The battle has officially begun.
