Lord Highlander

  Chapter 74 73. Marching to Moyunling

The morning sun shines in through the curtain of the tent, and draws a long and narrow white line on the ground, like a sharp long sword pointed directly at He Boqiang's face, causing him to first cover his head with a blanket indiscriminately, and then cover his head with a blanket. Woke up in sweat and heat, threw off the blanket, and lay on the bed gasping for breath.

  There was a noisy sound outside, and He Boqiang sat up from the bed at once, thinking that he had to go to the blacksmith shop early to get back the remade Roman sword.

  …

  Three thousand heavy armored infantry marched to Moyunling at the same time. This was a battle plan jointly executed by the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment and the 58th Brotherhood Regiment.

   It is obviously a heavy armored infantry regiment, but the work it does is the dirty work that only belongs to the logistics militia.

  The task received by the two infantry regiments was to open up a forest passage between the forest farm camp and Moyun Ridge, where a total of sixteen war horses could drive side by side.

  Whether it is the heavy cavalry regiment who goes out to train every day in the forest camp, or the constructed knights who are about to rush to the forest camp, the cavalry needs a smooth road, so that they can give full play to the greatest advantages of the cavalry.

  Because the logistics militia under the Duke of Newman have been unable to arrive at the forest camp.

  The commander of the Battle of Moyunling, Marquis Grover Newman, ordered the fifty-seventh heavy armored infantry regiment of Earl Mond Goss, Eustace. Earl of Constable's Fifty-eight Armored Infantry Regiment shared the task of opening the forest road.

So the two Earls led their respective 1,500 heavy armored infantry to the Moyun Ridge first. In order to complete the task of opening the forest road within the time limit, it is impossible for the two infantry regiments to advance from the forest farm to Moyun Ridge step by step. Unable to take advantage of the number of 3,000 heavy armored infantry.

Marquis Glover believed that to open up this forest road, the ten brigades of two heavy armored infantry regiments were divided into ten construction units, scattered on the forest road between the forest camp and Moyun Ridge, and it was the most effective way to open up this forest road at the same time. a plan.

Although this radical plan caused Earl Mund Goss to jump and yell at all of Grover's relatives, including his father, the Duke of Newman, when he returned to his tent, but the task of opening up Lindao this time, Earl Mund Goss But he couldn't evade it, so he could only bite the bullet and untie it.

  Earl Mond Goss has a better understanding of the topography of this area after he has been stationed in the forest camp for nearly half a year.

  So when sharing the task of opening up forest roads, Eustace. Earl Constable was assigned to open up the relatively safe first half of the woodland, while Mond Goss was assigned to open up the second half of the forest near Moyun Ridge.

  …

  He Boqiang yawned and got out of the tent, standing on the grass outside the tent, doing chest stretching exercises, while looking at the military camp at the foot of the forest farm.

At this time, a large area of ​​the barracks had been brought down, and the tents had been completely folded up, and they were carried on the soldiers, leaving a large empty field in the army, but the empty field appeared to be a mess, and there were all kinds of excavated things everywhere. There are pits, and scattered wooden frames. Some white cloth strips tied to the wooden frames are swaying in the wind, just like prostitutes waving their snow-white arms to attract the cavalry who are watching.

Suldak and the second team were caught in the ranks of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment at this time. Their team was very well prepared, and when they got up early in the morning, they dismantled the tents and put them on the backs of Red Socks and Beard. The supplies of Red Sox and Beard were distributed equally among every soldier in the team.

  The team in front had already entered the forest farm at the foot of the mountain two kilometers away. It was the turn of Suldak's second team to enter the queue. When the team passed the temporary market slope, the hillside was already crowded with a large number of onlookers.

  The grain merchant's logistics supply team will set off from here tomorrow and follow the heavy armored infantry into the mountains.

No one cheered for such an ordinary trip. On the contrary, the people on the hillside were very excited. To a large extent, it was because only when wars were waged could these caravans have business. Regardless of victory or defeat, some people would eventually benefit. The most fearful thing is that they will not be able to fight a battle if they stay in place for a year or two without making a sound, which will make the caravan go bankrupt.

  Seeing that He Boqiang stood out in the crowd, Suerdak waved vigorously to him.

The backpack on He Boqiang's back was completely covered by a thick dwarf chain shield, and a heavy Roman sword hung on his waist. The thick blade made the sword not look so sharp, and the tip of the sword showed a perfect arc. Both sides of the copper-colored sword are white and reflective blades. The blacksmith's craftsmanship is very good. Not only did he elongate the blade, but he also distributed the weight of the blade in perfect proportions. The arc of the blade is also very smooth. It looks very comfortable.

Of course, the modification cost of this Roman sword was also very beautiful, and the most embarrassing thing at that time was... He Boqiang had no money, and he had already spent all his money last night. A small pocket of Materia Shards.

   Fortunately, the blacksmith was also a simple and honest man. He took He Boqiang to find the material dealer who bought the magic spar fragments, and exchanged five gold coins from the merchant. Only then did he have the money to pay the blacksmith shop owner.

  He Boqiang squeezed out of the crowd, and the red socks behind Suerdak stopped for a step. He Boqiang took the opportunity to join the marching team.

  Surrounded by soldiers from the Fourth Battalion, everyone has long been familiar with this kind of thing, and no one made any dissatisfaction, so He Boqiang, a non-staff member, joined this travel mission again.

The bearded man followed behind the red socks and saw that He Boqiang was wearing an exquisite leather armor. This ranger, who graduated from the Warrior Academy, knew the goods. Seeing that this leather armor was unusual, he asked He Boqiang in a low voice with surprise in his eyes: " Hey, little Duck, where did you get such a heavy leather armor, it's really cool!"

"...Dwarf chain shield, made of fine iron brought from the dwarf kingdom, this shield is not so heavy, wow, it seems that you are well prepared, little Duck, those hardwood shields wrapped in iron can withstand The bite of the hyena can't stop the thorns of the evil spirit, this shield can completely..."

  Suldak, who was walking at the front of the team, scolded in a deep voice: "Shut up, no one will treat you as dumb if you don't speak. Be careful of the whip in the hand of the inspector of the law enforcement team."

   The young bearded man hurriedly bowed his head in fright.

Baron Sidney rode on an old horse and walked in the front of the Fourth Battalion. No matter when and where, he paid more attention to his appearance. He was wearing an exquisite magic-pattern armor, passing through the market When he was on the hillside, there were still people cheering for him.

  The soldiers of the second team followed the 57th regiment into the Gandar Er mountain again with full of emotions.

   After entering the woodland, the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment and brother regiments marched towards Moyunling in two ways...
