Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Chapter 90 The fortress that must be conquered

"Your Excellency Captain, are you saying that there is a powerful mysterious force hidden in our team?"

After hearing what Baron Yes said, Guards Knight Mora was stunned for a moment, and then a teasing look appeared on his pretty face.

While looking in the direction of Lei Xiao, he chuckled and said, "Don't be kidding me. Are you referring to a temporary squadron composed of these wounded soldiers?"

"This..." On the other side, Baron Yes, who was riding a tall horse, laughed a few times. Apparently he didn't think that these remnants of soldiers who had retreated from the front line would have much impact on the battle situation.

"Your Excellency Captain, don't think too much. As long as I and my cavalry are here, no enemy can stop us."

With a confident smile, Mora raised her riding whip and began to gallop towards the heavy knight troops opening the way ahead.

Hearing this, Lei Xiao curled his lips slightly and shook his head helplessly.

"As the saying goes, a proud soldier will be defeated. This woman is so arrogant on the battlefield. I'm afraid it won't take long before she hits a wall or suffers a lot."

Sure enough, just as Lei Xiao expected.

We marched among the rugged hills for more than 20 minutes, facing countless vultures hovering on the battlefield.

An unexpected situation happened again.

This time, what appeared in front of everyone was a giant earthen fortress about five meters high.

On top of the fortress, we saw longing figures and flaming flags fluttering, which undoubtedly showed that it was our opponent, the Leng Yan Army, who was stationed inside.

Under the bright sunshine, this fortress is located between two lush mountains.

Although there is still a large gap on both sides, if you try to pass under the fortress, you may immediately become a living target for the soldiers on the high wall.

What's even more striking is that around this fortress, there are a large number of corpses of Holy Night Army soldiers scattered everywhere.

It seemed that at least several squadrons of Holy Night infantry who had attempted to capture the fortress had died under the high wall.

"Why is there a fortress here?!"

Seeing this scene, Maura, who had been proud just now, slightly opened her red lips, and was stunned on the spot, obviously dumbfounded.

There is no doubt that no matter how powerful her cavalry is, they will never be able to break through such a strong fortress.

"It's a city-building technique."

On the other side, Baron Yes drove his horse forward and said with furrowed brows: "To be able to build such a huge earthen fortress in such a short period of time, I'm afraid at least one of them... no, two. A powerful third-level earth magician is here to take charge!"

"Fortification skills? There are two condescending third-level magic experts?"

Hearing this, the pretty face of the guard female knight Mora couldn't help but reveal a dignified look.

Needless to say, as a knight with excellent equestrian skills, siege warfare is naturally the type of attack she is least good at.

As you can imagine, in this situation, even if you gather the strength of the entire brigade, it may be difficult to take any advantage in the opponent's hands.

Just when the two of them were hesitating, a strange messenger with a special blue feather on his helmet came galloping from behind on a galloping horse, carrying a trail of dust.

"Your Excellency Captain Yes, the high command orders you to capture this fortress immediately and clear out all enemy troops in this area!"

After the messenger finished speaking, without waiting for Baron Yes' response, he drove away without looking back.

At the same time, Lei Xiao, who was on the left wing of the Chinese army, quickly understood the current situation under Chaoyan's soft explanation and the perception of Huzhang.

"Lord Qi, in the fortress ahead, there are two third-level magic powerhouses, half of which are first-level and second-level magic powerhouses, totaling about a hundred people.

It seems that this is a special Cold Flame Army magic squadron. "

With his eyes slightly closed, Huzhang sensed: "In addition, my subordinates also discovered abnormal magic fluctuations on the fortress. It seems that the other party is hiding something."

"Abnormal magic fluctuations? Senior Tiger Stick, can you tell me in detail?" On the other side, Chao Yan, whose perception was obviously not as good as Tiger Stick, could not help but show doubts and whispered in a low voice.

At this moment, the orange flag was lit again at the Chinese Army's position not far away, which was a signal for the squadron leaders to gather for a meeting.

In this way, Lei Xiao followed other squadron leaders and saw Baron Yes, who had dismounted, and said with a serious face: "I believe you have also seen that the fortress not far away is what we must conquer. .

Judging from the aura, the size of the opponent should be between one magic squadron and two magic squadrons.

For a while, except for the temporary squadron led by Captain Chensha, they were responsible for the security of the left and right wings and rear of the Chinese army.

All the cavalry dismounted, including the alert squadron, and all were commanded by Deputy Captain Mora to attack the city, while I led the three magic squadrons of the central army to provide support under the city. "

"I have the order!" On the other side, a group of solemn-looking squadron leaders said in unison, cupping their fists.

"Your Majesty Captain, may I ask if my squadron can also participate in the siege?" After hesitating for a moment, Lei Xiao touched his nose and asked again.

There is no doubt that if the cavalry dismounts and attacks the city, this unit will definitely suffer heavy losses, which will be detrimental to our subsequent actions.

Just the combat power of the 50 second-level magicians on the opponent's city wall is obviously much higher than the three magic squadrons composed of only a small number of second-level magicians on our own side.

"Captain Chensha, I think it's better to dispense with it."

Before Baron Yes could speak, the female knight Maura on the side crossed her arms across her chest and interrupted: "You have been fighting all night, so you should be responsible for the easiest security work."

Although the other party's words were very beautiful, Lei Xiao could still clearly hear a hint of contempt and disdain in them.

At the same time, the other squadron leaders all had more or less sneers on their lips, obviously thinking that Lei Xiao wanted to take credit from them.

Shrugging slightly, Lei Xiao said nothing more.

If this is the case, then the only choice is to make the other party suffer some pain first.

It just so happens that I can take this opportunity to find out more about what my opponent is hiding.

Just like that, after all the knights dismounted.

Mora took a heavy cavalry squadron, three light cavalry squadrons, and a security squadron.

First, within a safe area, we collected some ladders left by dead soldiers during the siege.

Immediately afterwards, the 500-strong siege force began to march toward the fortress in a mighty manner.

At the same time, three squadrons of magicians led by Baron Yes followed closely behind.

Among the team, there were only magicians wearing the Kingdom's blue standard robes, and the Kingdom's standard staffs held tightly in their hands were all shining with lights of various colors.

It seems that he is ready to launch spells at the fortress at any time.

The temporary squadron commanded by Lei Xiao, together with the treatment squadron, is located at the rear of the Chinese army. It can undoubtedly be said that it is in the safest zone.

Having said that, Chao Yan, who had just returned to the squadron and was covered in an invisibility cloak, immediately came to Lei Xiao's side and whispered: "Lord, my subordinates know what the opponent's hidden hand is."
