Chapter 232 "* * *, Set Out!!"
When Guptad and Du Wei approached the unfamiliar cavalry, the other party immediately stood up and formed a defensive formation. The soldier at the front had his hand on the hilt of his sword.
"Presumptuous! This is our Duke of the Tulip Family! "Guptad shouted:" Ask your captain to come out! "
A middle-aged man immediately walked out from the crowd. He was a knight wearing the standard armor of the Empire. He had a medium build, but he looked very sturdy. He strode forward, turned around, and said firmly, "Everyone, back off. Put down your weapons and rest."
Saying so, he walked in front of Du Wei and gave a Knight salute: "Bohan Province's second garrison division's third cavalry battalion commander Yaluoer salutes you! Honorable Duke of the Tulip Family! "
Du Wei nodded and carefully looked at this officer who called himself Yaluoer.
A Knight Commander is a middle to low ranking officer in the imperial military, commanding about a thousand cavalrymen. Looking at this guy's calm demeanor, and the knight badge on his chest was impressively a rank 4 knight, his strength was already quite impressive.
"Sir Knight Yaluoer, please tell me the purpose of your visit." Du Wei still has a bit of fear towards this Governor Bohan. The relationship between the two is not good. When he first came to the Northwest, the other party even backstabbed him. At this time, the garrison troops of the Nuling Province crossed the border into his territory … … Is it good or bad?
"Duke." This Yaluoer clearly belongs to the steady type. There's a faint trace of exhaustion on his face, and his voice is slightly hoarse, but still full of energy: "I came under Governor Bohan's orders."
Pausing for a moment, he continued: "Our second garrison division has been stationed at the border between the two provinces. During the recent spring drill, we have been mobilized frequently … … As for the purpose, I'm sure you know … …"
Du Wei smiled.
Of course, he understood it was to guard against the Northwest Army.
Speaking of which, Governor Bohan is also quite pitiful. The Northwestern Army's main camp is located in the Nuling Province under Bohan's jurisdiction. Although Bohan is the governor of a province, because the Northwestern Army is under his jurisdiction, his decree can only cover half of the province. The other half has always been under the control of the Northwestern Army.
That's why Bohan was particularly angry about Du Wei coming to the Northwest. Desa Province was originally his territory, but Du Wei "snatched" it away. Yes, as the governor, he only has half a province in his hands.
During this spring drill, the Northwest Army was frequently mobilized, so Bohan naturally wouldn't let his garrison stay idle.
"Sir, we received news two days ago that there were traces of the prairie cavalry in your territory! When we received the news, Governor Bohan followed the army to the border to review the drill. At that time, the situation was urgent and we heard there were traces of the prairie cavalry in your territory. According to our information, there were traces of the prairie cavalry in at least three locations. Governor Bohan had already sent a letter to you … … But the letter was sent to Loulan City … … Now it seems that since you're here, you probably didn't receive the letter. Our governor said that the military situation is urgent and he can't care about the rules. He also knows that you've just arrived in the Northwest and your military strength is tight. I'm afraid it won't be enough to quell the prairie cavalry's attack. That's why we didn't have time to get your permission before we sent a light cavalry regiment of our 2nd Garrison Division to cross the border and search for traces of the grassland invaders in units of a thousand. "
Speaking up to here, Yaluoer Knight glanced at Du Wei: "The situation is urgent. Although it's rude to rashly cross the border, the bigger picture is more important … …"
Du Wei waved his hand with a sincere smile on his face: "Okay, Knight Yaluoer, you don't need to say anymore. I'm deeply thankful for your help! Governor Bohan is right, the bigger picture is more important. Let's put those rules aside for now! "
Du Wei couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although this Governor Bohan is a bit narrow-minded and overly concerned with authority, but looking at the bigger picture, he's still a capable official who sincerely serves the empire.
At least when he knew that Du Wei's territory was in an emergency, he didn't hesitate to send troops to help. Such a move is enough to win Du Wei's respect.
If it was another bastard, even if they didn't kick him when he's down, they'd still be hiding in the corner gloating.
Looking at this Yaluoer Knight, Du Wei suddenly noticed that there were only about five to six hundred soldiers. Moreover, many of them had wounds on their armor and swords: "You … …"
Yaluoer lightly said: "My Lord, we crossed the border two days ago. On the way here, we encountered a group of prairie cavalry. Both sides fought for a while. Fortunately, the other side didn't have many people and we managed to beat them back. Last night, we met Commander Guetta on the road and followed him here. "
Although he downplayed the situation, but from the wounds on each of these soldiers and the bloodstains on their bodies, it must've been a fierce battle. Moreover … … from a thousand men to only five to six hundred, this kind of loss can't be said to be small!
Du-Wei silently looked at the cavalry of the Nuling Province. Although they stood there in silence, each of them had a determined expression on their face. Some of them still had blood stains on their faces, and some of them even had injuries on their bodies.
"We lost more than three hundred brothers, and some of them were seriously injured. In order to not affect the mobility of the troops, I have already sent them back." Yaluoer's voice was somewhat low.
Du Wei's heart couldn't help but feel a little moved. Suddenly, he bowed deeply to these people and spoke in a deep voice: "The Tulip Family will definitely remember your heroic act today!"
"You're welcome, Duke." Knight Yaluoer pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Our governor said … … Everything is for the Empire!"
At the critical moment, putting aside small grievances and putting the country's affairs first. Such a move made Du Wei's impression of Governor Bohan change greatly.
"Knight Yaluoer, there's no wine here, but I promise, tonight we will enter Anglia City victorious. At that time, I will personally invite the warriors of the Nuling Province to a banquet and get drunk for three days!"
With that, Du Wei let Guetta take care of the Nuling Province cavalry while he gathered 28 magic students and quietly left the forest. Along the way, they made their preparations in a low-lying area about a mile away from the forest.
•
Hualala … …
Du Wei took off his magician's robe and untied the magic bag sewn inside. Holding it with both hands, he poured it down.
All the students stared dumbfoundedly at the esteemed Headmaster as he poured out the contents of his storage device …
A pile of brooms!
That's right, a pile of brooms! Dozens of brooms piled up on the ground.
Some of the students couldn't help but be stunned. Why did the Dean take out so many brooms? Are we supposed to PK the prairie with brooms?
"These will be your … … 'mounts'! Come and try out your new mounts! " Du Wei announced: "Everyone pick one … … There's no need to pick, just take one. These things are all the same."
When the students picked up the brooms with a strange look on their faces, Du Wei also picked one up and held it in his hand.
"The way to use it is very simple. Do you see the six-pointed star pattern on the broom head? Inject magic! Yes, just like how you use a magic wand! Everyone can try it, but don't go too fast or too hard unless you want to break your head! Then … … Ride on it and clip it under your crotch … … Like me … … "
After saying that, Du Wei personally demonstrated it once … … It has to be said that he was also a little nervous because this was the first time he fiddled with this thing. In Anglia City, he didn't have time to use it.
"Like me … … Inject magic … … Then gently push your legs … …"
After saying this, under the gaze of all the students, their esteemed principal rose up from the ground like a shooting star with the broom in his hand … …
Du Wei's last words were short, as if there was a scream in his throat … …
"Ah!"
Then with a bang, Du Wei disappeared in a moment! Up in the sky, a figure dashed into the distance at a speed so fast that it was almost invisible, leaving behind only a series of exclamations …
"What is the Dean doing?" Some of the students stared blankly at the sky.
"I don't know … … But he flew so fast … …"
When Du Wei flew back from the distance, his hat was already blown away by the wind!
Damn it! The speed at which he injected magic was too fast and too fierce! Just now, the broom went out of control and directly flew out. If not for Du Wei's quick reaction, he would have crashed into a distant hill.
But when he came back, he quickly learned how to operate it.
When he landed, he pretended to be calm and said: "Do you see … … The thing in your hands can let you fly! It doesn't need any spells, it's a flying magic tool. "
All the students immediately had a strong interest.
"Cough cough … … But be careful, at the beginning, inject magic gently and slowly! Otherwise … … "Du-Wei paused for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed," You will end up like me. Okay, now you can try it! Remember, hold the broom handle, pull it up and push it down. I don't need to teach you the left and right, right? Also … … The more magic you inject, the faster the speed! "
This thing was not difficult to operate. At least, what made Du Wei depressed was that when these students tried to fly, none of them flew out like he did just now.
Maybe it was because the students' level of magic was not too high, and Du Wei's magic was relatively strong.
After an hour, the students were already able to control a simple flight, and some of them could even make a seemingly arrogant dive.
It had to be said that these guys were really talented. And Gege Wu was right: "As long as you know how to ride a horse, you will be able to ride this thing."
"Okay, everyone quiet down!"
When the students returned from an hour of free flying, they saw the dean standing in a place full of black clay pots. Each of the jars was sealed, and there was something that looked like a flower vine stuck in the opening of each jar.
"What I'm going to say next is very important!" Du Wei looked at everyone: "The flying broom I gave you is not for fun! Because in a while … … you will be riding it, and I will bring you along to risk your lives! This mission is very dangerous! It is very likely that some people will die! If you want to withdraw now, I will allow it, because you are only my students, not my family's warriors. You have no obligation to die for me. "
No one spoke.
Du Wei was very satisfied, and looked at the group of students with emotion: "Now, look at this thing in my hand. This is not an ordinary pot … … it is a weapon that can kill!"
After saying that, Du Wei gently lit up a flower vine, and then threw the pot out with all his might … …
When the huge explosion sounded, everyone's face was filled with shock!
Such a pot filled with gunpowder, after lighting the fuse and throwing it out tens of meters away, the explosion was comparable to a low level magician's fire magic!
The explosion created a shallow pit on the ground!
"From now on, you will be the first under my command … …" Du Wei deliberately paused: "Aerial combat army! Abbreviated as … … Air Force! Gentlemen, please remember this day! Because your appearance will have an epoch-making significance to this continent! From today onwards, because of you, there will be a huge change in the way war is fought! "
The students were silent for a while, and soon, everyone's faces were filled with excitement!
"This evening, we will ride these brooms and fly above the heads of the grassland people. Then, from the sky, we will throw these pots down and blow up the heads of the grassland wolves!" Du Wei shouted loudly: "You will be the first aerial combat army in this continent … … so, you will have a resounding name! From now on, when any enemy hears your name, they will tremble! Be terrified! Be terrified!!! "
"My Lord, what is our designation!" Sieg could not help but ask excitedly.
Du Wei smiled lightly, his smile was extremely sinister … …
When the sun began to set in the west, Knight Robert felt that he had squeezed out the last of his strength.
Just now, the grassland people had launched their last crazy attack, and this attack almost caused Robert's men to be unable to defend. Fortunately, Du Wei had killed the opponent's shaman sorcerer last night!
Looking at the corpses that littered the ground below the city walls, Robert let out a long sigh.
Fortunately, the morale of the soldiers was still high. Du Wei's magnificent feat last night was really an act that raised their morale. Now, everyone had a fanatical trust in this Duke.
Less than a third of the soldiers on the city walls remained. Robert knew that the final moment had arrived!
When the last ray of the setting sun shone down, he ordered the fire on the city walls to be lit! The raging flames burned under the tulip flag. From afar, the tulips on the flag were in full bloom in the midst of the flames!
The night wind whistled. Du Wei silently stood on a hillside not far behind the grassland people. He quietly looked at the grassland people who were retreating like the tide. He looked at the dense formation of the grassland people, looked at the dense number of tents … … swords like a forest, formation like a mountain … …
He took a deep breath, and then his body suddenly floated high up into the air. While he was in the air, he suddenly spread out his arms and shouted: "Go! Tonight is the night to defeat the enemy! "
Behind him was a dense row of 28 magic students riding on brooms, floating behind Du Wei!
Du Wei's mouth flashed a sinister smile, and then he suddenly shouted:
"Tyrannical Sky Tiger! Set out!! "
(If you saw the last sentence and accidentally spat out tea or cola on the computer screen … … then I'm sorry, because I deliberately wrote it that way … … hehe.
For the "Tyrannical Sky Tiger", brothers, throw your monthly votes at me!!)
