Chapter 515
515 Dragon city’s chess game, melee
All of the wolf riders were covered in the blood of wild beasts, making them look like a bloody man.
Blood dripped from the wolf cavalry soldiers ‘bodies onto their Black Gold armor, and dripped onto the ground along the cloud pattern of Taotie.
the wolf cavalry moved quickly and reached the foot of the city in a moment.
Although they had just experienced a great battle, they were all in high spirits and their eyes were bright with excitement.
He swept his eyes around. Although they were all stained with blood, he didn’t see anyone seriously injured.
open the city gate. We are the wolf cavalry unit. We are here to stop the beast tide under inspector Li’s orders. Sun Shu, who was the Adjutant, stood up and said while driving the wild wolf.
The Adjutant commander on the city wall also came out to talk. He glanced into the distance and asked, ” “You said you were going to stop the beast tide. Why haven’t the beast tide arrived yet?”
“After we launched the assault, we used the large reservoir in the flying Tiger stream to release water and forced the beast tide back. That was how we managed to buy time for our retreat,” Sun Shu continued.
Just as the Adjutant was about to ask more questions, a muffled hum suddenly came from the direction of Flying Tiger stream. Then, the earth began to tremble again, and the Horde of beasts rushed out of Flying Tiger stream like a flood that had opened the floodgates, covering the sky and earth.
Seeing this, the commander immediately went to the city wall and ordered, ” “Quickly open the city gates and let them in!”
The cavalry unit entered the city smoothly. The commander stood on the city wall and shouted, ” “The beast tide is here. I don’t have time to greet you now, so you can do as you please!” After he finished speaking, he ran to the other side of the city wall and began to command the battle.
All the recruited Beastmasters and hunters were now focused on link.
Just now, battalion commander Qin had led them to carry out more than ten charges, killing more than ten thousand wild beasts. His command was very imposing. In the face of danger, he took the lead to break through the enemy formation for everyone, or he brought up the rear and used the saber-toothed tiger King’s might as a king beast to force the other tigers and leopards to not dare to act rashly. Now that these people were willing to listen to battalion commander Qin’s command, it could be said that they were following the horse’s lead.
everyone knew that with this unparalleled battle record as their backing, they would definitely be rewarded by the city lord xu tianzhao after the beast tide ended and become the new upstarts sought after by dragon city. Even the usually expressionless Deputy Sun Shu’s eyes were burning. As long as he could return alive, there would be hope for the next part of the plan!
Link wasn’t afraid at all despite being stared at by hundreds of eyes. He had experienced the speech of tens of thousands of people in Shandu, but the one in front of him was a piece of cake.
“Bring me the map.” With just four words, everyone got into action.
Who has a map?
Hurry and bring it over, the battalion commander wants to see it!
I have it here!
Hurry up!
These people chimed in and quickly handed the map to Sun Shu, who then handed it to link.
Link opened the map and scanned it. He began to look for steep mountains and narrow roads between this place and Dragon City.
When sun Shu saw this, he immediately understood. The battalion commander wanted to continue looking for steep mountains, to replicate the miracle of the wolf cavalry soldiers from Flying Tiger stream.
She didn’t know that link had other thoughts.
In the flying Tiger stream, link had charged more than ten times in a row. A rough estimate showed that he had killed at least 10000 beasts.
However, most of them were the so-called Vanguard of the beast tide, which consisted of hyenas, bi ‘an, jackals, Tigers, and leopards.
link led the wolf riders to charge forward repeatedly. with the dual halos of the saber-toothed tiger king, it was simply relaxing.
In just a few minutes, the wolves ‘bites and Link’s first harvest had earned him more than 400000 experience points.
Soon, the agile beasts in the vanguard were destroyed. When link saw the large predators such as mammoths, crocodiles, and wild hippos, he immediately ordered Sun Shu to open the floodgates and retreat with the wolf riders.
Wild beasts of this size and scale were not something that the wasteland wolves could deal with. If they continued to stay here, it would be difficult for them to leave when these giant beasts entered Flying Tiger stream.
Link looked at the map, trying to find a suitable spot to attack.
If it was just killing the hyenas, it might sound unbelievable to the people in Dragon City. However, it was far from enough for link. The beast tide happens once a year, and once every three years, it’s a big one. This year’s beast tide is only the small one, not a big one that will fight to the death.
Link had come to Dragon City to cause trouble. He could not wait three years.
Therefore, the bigger the sensation he created this time, the higher his promotion limit would be, and it would be more convenient for him to cause trouble.
link looked at the map. his eyes locked onto the defeated king’s ridge, which was five kilometers away from dragon city.
The defeated King Ridge.
As the name suggested, a beast King had once been defeated here. To commemorate the bravery of the people of Dragon City in fighting against the beast tide, this place was named the ridge of defeat.
This time, he was going to make a big move.
Once they succeeded, they would basically be able to determine the victory.
Link glanced to the side and pointed at the map. if we want to make a contribution, we have to make a contribution in a place where the city Lord can see us. So, our next target is here!
The surrounding Wolf cavalry soldiers all gathered around and took in a breath of cold air.
The defeated King Ridge was definitely a big stage.
Standing on the Great Wall at the border of Dragon City, one could see the entire defeated King Ridge at a glance.
If they attacked here, the entire city would know!
As long as they could perform as fearsome as the flying Tiger stream, they would definitely be able to be known throughout the world.
beside him, sun shu frowned slightly. although the defeated king’s ridge was an excellent ” stage “, it was actually just a hill, and its altitude was not high. Although the wolf cavalry soldiers “charge would be enhanced, they would definitely not be like the flying Tiger stream, where they had to rely on the steep terrain to repeatedly jump.
If they charged into the beast tide, they would have to face the entire main force of the beast tide. How would they return then?
Sun Shu had a lot of questions, but when he saw the excitement in the eyes of the people around him, he knew that no one would listen to him if he poured cold water on them. Instead, they would feel that he had delayed their future.
sun shu had a plan in mind. he would follow qin shou to see what was going on. if he found out that qin shou was eager for quick success, he would find a chance to sneak back to the city and try to persuade him again. after all, these wolf cavalry soldiers were facing the beast tide head-on. none of them would survive. dead men could not prove anything.
Silver hand leaned back slightly and approached the macaw disguised as a Big Eagle in the material bag sitting on the back leg of the wolf. He whispered, ” “Just now, battalion commander seemed to be staring at me with a profound look.”
The macaw patted its silver hands, its eyes signaling for him not to panic, that nothing would happen, that it was all an illusion.
Time was of the essence, and the traps and obstacles along the way could only stop some small and medium beasts, but not the large beasts. They wanted to set up an ambush for large wild beasts, but they still had a series of things to do when they reached the baiwang Ridge.
“do you all want to be famous throughout the world after today’s battle?”
“I want to!”
Hundreds of people raised their arms and shouted. Their voices were no weaker than the beast tide outside the city wall.
The soldiers on the city’s defense glanced at them curiously. They didn’t know what was going on below, but the uniform shouting sounded like their blood was boiling.
“Everyone, follow me to defeat Wang Ling! in the past, the emperor’s teacher had killed a beast king there, which was why it was named the defeated king ridge. Everyone, follow me and ambush. We’ll kill another beast King!”
Link’s words were extremely alluring. The Beastmasters and hunters around him looked at him with fanatical eyes. Even if link told them to turn around and kill their way back, a considerable number of them would probably respond brainlessly.
Link urged the saber-toothed tiger King forward, and the wolf riders followed behind. The sound of metal clattering could be heard as they continued South.
As soon as he left, he heard the sound of a beast tide attacking the city wall behind him. It was like an avalanche on a snowy mountain, rolling over in an overwhelming manner.
After the blood fortress sorted out the information, they quickly reported it to Dragon City.
In the tens of years of history of resisting the beast tide, this was a major victory by taking the initiative to launch an ambush. Under the leadership of the cavalry battalion commander, Qin Shou, the wolf cavalry had repeatedly charged and crushed the vanguard of the beast tide in Flying Tiger stream. The battalion commander, Qin Shou, took the lead and was in charge of the rear. He fought heroically and killed over 10000 of the beast wave Vanguard at the cost of not a single person from the cavalry unit dying.
When Xu tianzhao, who was in charge of the Royal Court, received the news from his subordinate, he slightly clenched his fists on the armrest of the throne and immediately looked coldly at the chief guard who was sitting with his eyes closed. “Master Leng, the person you arranged this time has done a great service!”
Xu tianzhao waved away the subordinate who was reporting to him. He could not help but look happy. it seemed that it was the right decision to invest a huge sum of money to buy the wild wolves in shandu. It might become the turning point to turn Dragon city’s decline around.
Leng Guan slowly opened his eyes and cupped his fists, ” “Congratulations city Lord, four happy events have arrived.”
“Oh? There’s four blessings?”
leng guan chuckled,”there’s no need for you to test me, city lord.” The first was that the wolf cavalry soldiers were extremely effective, and they would have something to rely on against the beast tide. The second was that this cavalry unit commander Qin was good at battle and was an unparalleled state scholar. Third, Li Chao, as an inspector, could be used regardless of status, and he was a member of the palace guards, absolutely loyal to the city Lord; The identities of these two people, one is an elder of the Qin clan and the other is an unpopular person who is prejudiced against the bloodline theory. By using these two people, they can send a signal to the outside world that the city Master is supporting a new party to fight against the old party.”
Xu tianzhao pursed his lips and smiled. master Leng, since you’ve mentioned the four blessings, why didn’t you also mention the one disaster? ”
“As expected, I can’t hide it from the city Lord.”
xu tianzhao was in a good mood and also laughed out loud. master Leng, don’t forget that I’m your proudest disciple. If I don’t even know this, wouldn’t I be tarnishing your reputation? ”
Leng Guan stroked his beard, his expression gradually turning serious, ” “The problem is that we’re over-reliant on the wasteland wolves, which will give the monster security company a chance to take root. Recently, I’ve heard that Simon of the Dragon City branch has been in contact with many factions under the guise of doing business, but there is no lack of information theft.
Moreover, link was a man of great strategy. He had been making frequent moves recently. Now that he had unified the entire Western Region, he had no more worries. Next, he would definitely focus on other places. However, once the balance of power is broken, the freedom Federation will no longer be able to hold on. ”
Xu tianzhao pondered for a moment and sighed. “to resist foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation. although the invasion of shandu is already in progress, the first focus should still be on the beast tide and internal reform. Now, these old parties still hold a lot of power, so we have to divide and conquer the internal problems before we can start to solve the problem of dependence on the desert wolves in Shandu.”
” of course, we can lead the old party to contact shandu first. these diehards have to be eliminated eventually. they can play their last role and delay shandu before the problem is solved. ” Xu tianzhao added.
Leng Guan nodded to show that he would remember.
this Junior Brother Li Chao didn’t disappoint us on his first mission. It seems that I have to think about what position to arrange for him.
Leng Guan chuckled. city Lord, you’re too hasty. The beast tide has only just begun.
it might end soon, ” Xu tianzhao said with a smile.
Leng Guan was startled for a moment, but he immediately stroked his beard and nodded. He understood the thoughts of this disciple he was most proud of.
As expected of a formidable character, he took a dangerous move and used the entire Dragon City as a chess game to play against each other and build the overall situation of luck.
“If that’s the case, then Li Chao can be of use. He’s from the lozhe Palace, and he’s an outstanding graduate of the 28th batch, Yingying.”
“Good! After the beast tide, let Little Junior Brother be the sharp knife!”
As soon as Xu tianzhao’s voice fell, a guard outside the Royal Court came to report.
“Reporting to the city Lord, we discovered that the cavalrymen are returning from the South, but they stopped ten miles outside the city, as if they were stationed there.”
Leng Guan’s eyes lit up and he suddenly asked, ” “Where are they stationed?”
“I’m defeating Wang Ling.”
Leng Guan and Xu tianzhao exchanged a look and said, ” a Sword’s Edge is sharpened from grinding. If nothing unexpected happens, the city Lord’s second blade will be unsheathed and shine on the wasteland!
Xu tianzhao pursed his lips and smiled. Although he had never seen Qin Shou before, he had just made a plan, and Qin Shou had already responded to him. He didn’t know if it was because great minds thought the same, or if it was just luck. however, no matter what it was, it was indispensable.
Xu tianzhao’s plan was to arrange for five thousand Wolf cavalry to charge out of the city and fight the beast tide after the beast tide Army arrived. It was not difficult for Dragon City to guard against an ordinary beast tide. Xu tianzhao wanted to test the strength of the wild wolves by letting the wolf cavalry fight the beast Tide head-on. Secondly, there would definitely be damage in a head-on fight. According to the contract, the injured wild wolves had to be handed over to Dragon city’s monster security company for logistics treatment.
Through this move, the power and status of the monster security company would be increased. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that although the wolf cavalry was very effective, Dragon City was too dependent on the wasteland wolves in Shandu. This would also lead to some forces who were wavering and choosing to wait and see to move towards Shandu, which was what Xu tianzhao was happy to see.
These bugs that were hiding in the soil usually hid very deeply and were able to take advantage of the situation. They usually couldn’t even find an excuse to attack. this time, he would use the monster security company as a ” honeypot ” to lure these bugs out so that he could get rid of them in one fell swoop.
Then, he would use Li Chao and Qin Shou, these two great generals, to weaken the power of many of the Dragon city’s aristocratic families, support the new factions and the humble families, and reshuffle the power structure. This would completely solve the long-suppressed ” tumor of the aristocratic families ” in Dragon City.
As for Qin Shou, it was obvious that he didn’t intend to return and was prepared to gain more military merits.
xu tianzhao wanted to use the wolf cavalry to push the monster security company, so the military achievements of these wolf cavalry would naturally need to be claimed. Only Qin Shou, who had led the wolf cavalry to kill more than ten thousand people without a single casualty, could claim the credit.
Although the two of them had different goals, they were able to influence each other.
only by following the general trend could one’s name shake the world!
