Bright Era
Chapter 1214: Heavy casualties
Arthur's army has nothing to say about military discipline and management. He completely used the power of the Prince of the North Sea and the terrifying name of the temple of punishment to frighten these ordinary people who were forcibly conscripted into the army. So you can imagine what the chaos in his army camp was like.
Because his camp was messed up into a mess, the team led by Long Li, Yun Tianyi, and Karls Chenxi did not disturb anyone, and they merged smoothly with the Longshan family's army led by Lin Qi.
Facing the three people's doubts, Lin Qi just made two excuses lightly, and completely dispelled all the three people's doubts.
For the three of them, with the help of these powerful mercenaries, dwarf warriors, and Warcraft knights brought by Lin Qi, they will definitely be able to earn greater benefits from this operation. They also have a greater certainty to undermine Arthur's plot, no matter from which point of view, cooperation with the Longshan family is beneficial and harmless.
So after spending more than an hour packing up, Lin Qi personally led the team and entered the cave passage with the mighty Longshan family. Mr. Mo was also very good at marching and formation. He sent the dead soldiers under the bliss of heaven to patrol around, sent a large number of mercenaries with strong field combat experience as scouts, and then the dwarf warriors acted as the vanguard into the cave.
Dwarves have deep feelings for all caves, and in many dwarves’ beliefs, they are even the sons of rocks. So the dwarf warriors brought by Lin Qi comfortably gazed at the big pipe, drank the barley wine, and moved forward happily.
However, Lin Qi arranged the dwarf king of Wine Barrel in this army of dwarves, and the dwarf with a coarse character did not make Lin Qi a chaos similar to the Port of Vias. The group of men and horses moved forward smoothly in the cave, and soon came to a cave within a radius of several miles.
There were corpses all over here, and the dried blood stained the rock a weird purple red.
Dozens of magic torches were suspended in the air, lighting up the cave. At least three thousand soldiers died here, and they were killed by a group of black-bred cave rats with long black manes the size of a domestic dog.
This kind of cave mouse between the beast and the beast, an ordinary human warrior can easily deal with several such goods. But the people who entered the cave early were a group of ordinary people who had just received a few months of training. Their combat effectiveness was pitifully weak, and faced with the raid of these cave black-maned rats, they would not suffer serious casualties.
The soldiers who died in battle were neatly piled together. An ice magician applied frost magic to their corpses. In this underground cave, an ice magic was enough to ensure that their corpses could only survive for a few months. It will rot and spoil.
This is a cave. The conventional method of burning corpses to collect ashes does not work. If the corpses decay, it is likely to cause a large-scale plague in the subsequent army. Therefore, the ice magic is very useful here, and all the corpses are concentrated and frozen.
Lin Qi frowned as he looked at the soldiers' bodies covered in thin ice flakes.
The thin leather armor and weapons of these soldiers were stripped off, and even their clothes were messy. Apparently, they were all searched carefully after death. Lin Qi swept through these corpses mentally, and they didn't even leave a single copper on them.
Undoubtedly, the insignificant military salary that Arthur, who was scarcely provided, gave these soldiers was raided back after the soldiers died.
"The guy who made money!" Yun clenched his small fist fiercely: "What a despicable bastard."
Karls Chenxi frowned, and he murmured under the thick black cloak, "What a shame, he will lose the honor of the Temple of Punishment. It's just that," Fortunately, what he corrupted is the honor of the punishment temple, let him continue to corrupt!"
Karls Dawn and some of the gods from the Dawn Temple around laughed at the same time. Their action was originally to destroy the benefits that Arthur and Retribution Temple might get from the Fourth Abyss, and at least part of it should be shared. Benefits work. So they would be happy to see Arthur make any irrational actions, the more irrational, the more excessive things, for the Dawn Goddess, the better.
The brigade continued to advance, and there were blood stains everywhere along the way, and there were uncleaned corpses everywhere.
The caves here are as complex as spider webs. Numerous strange cave creatures live in the huge underground caves. Warcraft and poisonous insects are the rulers here, and the harsh environment is the biggest enemy here. Even the brave mercenaries in the terrestrial world, no one dared to try to enter the fourth abyss from this entrance of the high ground. These ordinary soldiers under Arthur entered here, and a large number of casualties were inevitable.
What is gratifying is that the caves here are very spacious. Any cave, even the narrowest cave, can easily accommodate hundreds of people walking side by side, and many caves can easily accommodate tens of thousands of people. Fortunately, it was this way that Lin Qi dared to enter here with a large group of people. If it was replaced with a small corridor where two people could not move side by side, even Lin Qi would not dare to take such an adventure.
However, the spacious caves greatly facilitate the march of the army, and even more convenient for those huge monsters.
Lin Qi and the others followed the green passage marked on the magic map for several hours. After bypassing several dangerous zones, they finally arrived at an underground cave with a diameter of more than twenty miles.
As soon as he entered the cave, Lin Qi saw the sight of flesh and blood flying in front of him. Nearly 10,000 peasant soldiers under Arthur's command awkwardly formed a formation that looked like a square, but seemed to be round, like a slime. The huge battlefield is being madly attacked by more than 30 dark dragons, lizards and evil lions, and a large number of peasant soldiers die on the spot with every attack.
Dragon lizard and evil lion, a weird beast made of three kinds of creatures: earth dragon, lizard and manticore.
Their heads are born like lizards, but they have a sharp dragon horn on top of their heads, a lion-shaped body is covered with a scorpion-like cuticle, and a sharp tail carries a huge stinger, which is extremely poisonous.
They are only a hybrid of manticores, so they have no wings, but their strength and vitality are more powerful than manticores. They run like the wind, and often a single horn on the impact head can pierce the bodies of several soldiers, and a dozen wooden shields can be shattered with a single blow.
Occasionally, a few dragons, lizards, and evil lions become addicted to killing, and a black flame burst out when they open their mouths.
The sticky fishy smell wrapped around the thinly armored soldiers with a venomous breath, burning their bones to ashes, and only the black skeleton fell to the ground with a sound. Black flames continued to erupt, and there were at least two thousand black skeletons like this on the ground.
"Damn Arthur!" Yun clenched his fists tightly: "As long as a few heavenly warriors accompany, these dragon lizards and evil lions can be easily killed!"
Lin Qi squinted his eyes, and said in a low voice: "The heavenly soldiers are all elite, all of them are in the heavy armored regiments of his direct line. Among the soldiers who were used to find the way to death, he was willing to dispense the sky. A soldier is a ghost!"
With a cold snort, Lin Qi waved his hand: "Save these poor insects and tell them plainly that it was the magnanimous, kind, generous, and benevolent Earl of Longshan who saved them. Well, give them to each of them. Send out some silver coins to suppress the shock and let them follow behind us."
Everyone looked at Lin Qi in amazement, only Mr. Mo and Yun suddenly laughed.
Mr. Mo nodded and exclaimed: "This is a good time to gather people's hearts for the family. If we can save more people and take more people out of the Fourth Abyss, then no one can shake the family's reputation in the five northern provinces. ."
Mr. Mo's words are very ambiguous, as if the Longshan family wanted to dig the corner of Arthur and the Gaul Empire, and did something like uprising-righteousness, riots and chaos in the five northern provinces. Lin Qi just smiled and said nothing, but Karls Chenxi and other young people from the god-descendant family could not wait to take people to rush up: "The almighty God of Dawn will protect you, chant the name of my god, you and others Will be sheltered!"
There is no need for Lin Qi's people to do it. Karls Dawn and others have already taken a large number of Dawn knights to chop up more than 30 poor dragon lizards and evil lions into meat sauce. A beautifully born girl raised a long staff, chanted a few spells in a low voice, and a large amount of bright light sprinkled from the cave.
The soldiers who had been so frightened that their hands and feet were weak and almost fainted, their courage and strength returned to them at the same time.
They watched in awe at Karls Chenxi and the others, who were shrouded in bright light. For a while, the reputation of the temple of Chenxi was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The people around Lin Qi gave them rations and silver coins, instructing them to follow Earl Longshan's army to move forward. After Earl Longshan's army protected them, the beautiful image of the Longshan family was also established in the hearts of these soldiers.
After resting for a while, Lin Qi led the brigade to break through the lair of the dragon lizard and evil lion and continue to go deeper.
A stream of people continued to march into the cave, and they would find a large number of new forks every day, and Arthur would drive these soldiers into these forks to search for the road without mercy. Thousands of casualties occur every day, and for several days, they have encountered great danger and caused legion-level injuries.
Everyone's bodies were frozen in the remote cave, and Arthur's army continued to follow the cave firmly.
Gradually, a month passed in a flash. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
