17. Ambush
The soldiers were cleaning the battlefield and did not die, but two soldiers were injured, one of them was sprained by himself. He was too nervous. Seeing the soldiers collecting spoils, Wang Qinian felt relieved. Although he was calm on the surface, he was still nervous in his heart. Franklin completely breathed a sigh of relief. He was the most nervous person. After all, Franklin had never heard of this kind of war. Although under the leadership of Wang Qinian, he pretended to be calm, but he was nervous in his heart. Success, failure, gain and loss were related to his future, and he finally won.
Betsy was busy treating the two injured soldiers. She was a water magic apprentice and had specialties in treatment. The soldiers were smiling happily. The things robbed by the enemy were valuable. Raymond was worried about this. Anyway, there were corresponding regulations. Wang Qinian did not ask about it. He and Franklin began to interrogate the entourage knight.
The entourage knights were considered quasi-noble. Wang Qinian interrogated them and cooperated very well. As the entourage knight, he could be redeemed with money. He was the subordinate of Baron Eden, under Earl Edward. He attacked with Baron Eden. Wang Qinian asked about Baron Eden's position and military strength. Baron Eden had more than 60 people and a knight, but he did not go with them.
Upon hearing this news, the two fell into deep thought. The other party was far superior to them in terms of strength. Franklin's first idea was to avoid it. Wang Qinian was the same. However, after thinking about it, it was not impossible to eat the other party. Wang Qinian's understanding of war was to destroy the other party, without asking about any means.
In the tent, Wang Qinian said his thoughts, which scared Franklin and Raymond: "You want to touch Baron Eden?"
"Look at whether he can eat him up. He went deep into us alone. Earl Ryan's battlefield is not good. I urgently need exciting news. If he is eliminated, the effect will be much greater than you imagined. What I planned for you before will have to be re-planned. You may really not need a title from the family." Wang Qinian was tempted.
Franklin felt blood surge up in an instant, and he didn't even think about it: "Is there such a great contribution?"
"Of course, there are 20 people to defeat more than 60 enemies, including a team of knights. The key is to stop the enemy's arrogance. Do you think the credit is great?" Wang Qinian said.
"But how can we defeat the enemy? They have more than 60 people and more than a dozen knight troops. Isn't this a whimsical idea?" Franklin finally knew his situation.
Raymond was on the side, and he also felt that it was a strange tale. Wang Qinian said: "I am just an idea. Whether I can succeed depends on the situation of the enemy, as well as terrain and other factors, so I can bring the nearby terrain map."
Becky set up the nearby map. The map was relatively simple, but it was enough. Wang Qinian observed the map and was thinking. Twenty people had to deal with more than sixty people. This scale was not large, but it was also one-on-three. The other side had more than a dozen knights. They were powerful people and soldiers could not match them. After all, they belonged to the peasant army.
The first thing that Wang Qinian thought of was fire attack. Fire attack in this world is not surprising, but conscious fire attack is rare. However, after capturing the opponent, put a handful of fire. To attack, you must choose the fire scene. It is autumn. Although the plants and trees are slightly yellow, they are not easy to catch fire. The previous work must be done.
Wang Qinian looked on the map for a long time and finally chose a place. The grass was very high and there were some mountains around him, not too high, but there were a large number of trees on the mountain. Wang Qinian pointed his hand and was here.
When he said his thoughts, the three of them stared at him in a daze, Raymond said, "This is not in line with the spirit of chivalry!"
Wang Qinian slapped his head: "You also talk about chivalrous spirit. Chivalrous spirit can be used to your own people, and to deal with the enemy. Think about it, in history, Emperor Charles the Great deals with the Gaucha people, have he talked about chivalrous spirit, Emperor Kelung of Hulu deals with the barbarians, have he talked about chivalrous spirit to the barbarians?"
Charles and Kaiwang made great achievements, held high the banner of the founder, fought all directions, and achieved the success of the founding bishop's unification of Taixi Province today. People praised the heroic names of the two emperors. Their war history was full of tricks, especially against the Cocha people and the barbarians. Charles and the Great defeated the alliance three times, and Kaiwang made a covenant and took advantage of the celebrating of the opponent, and finally achieved success. People have chosen to forget these deeds or beautify them.
When Wang Qinian mentioned this, Franklin smiled: "As long as we win, who cares about how victory comes."
Wang Qinian was somewhat exceptional, and he felt relieved after thinking about it again. Although Franklin was a low-level knight, he was also a person who had seen the world in the Edmund family. He probably had seen it in the capital of Leah long ago.
They discussed the details again and decided to send two people to escort the entourage knight to meet Baron Edmund, asking him to catch up as soon as possible and help Franklin with his arm if necessary. This was even less staff. At dawn, he sent a scout to reconnaissance, and at the same time he drove straight to Mount Markpoll, which was where they chose the ambush.
There are not mountains on both sides, and the mountains are only about a hundred cubits high. The elbow is a common unit of length in this world, about half a meter. It was made by Charles the Great in history, and the length of his elbow is based on it. Legend has it that Charles the Great elbow is particularly long and looks like a gorilla.
They adopted the method of waiting for the rabbit. It is very likely that Baron Eden would pass by this road. The direction they were heading here. After passing here, a rich village several miles ahead was a place where it was easy to obtain supplies.
The two scouts came back one after another, and they rode the horses of the two entourage knights, bringing news to confirm Wang Qinian's prediction. Seeing this, Raymond shouted: "Brothers, the enemy is coming, we are ready!"
The soldiers were busy, and the grass was poured on oil. They poured all the oil on it and spread it withered grass. Everything was busy. They went to the front and cut down the trees to block the exit.
Do all this and retreat to the forest on the mountain. Raymond brought twelve soldiers and two crossbows to the opposite mountain, and the rest were on another mountain.
After waiting for three and a half hours, Baron Eden appeared, and a group of more than 60 people came in clusters. This time he brought more than 100 people, and the team was separated by many. The rest of the team was not large, with a maximum of twenty people, led by several knights. His team also had a supporter in the center. Of course, it was not him who picked up others, but others picked up others.
He broke into Earl Ryan's territory along the way. Last time Earl Edward suffered a loss, and this time he took the initiative. He heard that Grand Duke Leah was about to send someone to persuade him to make peace. At the same time, the Holy Edon Church also intends to persuade him to make peace. Edward decided to make a time difference and get the interests first. There were also many bargaining chips during negotiations.
He had almost no resistance. Earl Ryan was obviously not prepared enough. As time went by, he began to look down on Earl Ryan. He was not a soldier at first, but he was just a little proud of his ancestors.
Seeing the valley, a knight said, "Sir Baron, the terrain ahead, to prevent ambushing."
He glanced at it and said, "It's nothing, it's just two small hills. Besides, we have you knights and Mike Magicians. Who can stop us? If there is someone, I'm going to fight him!"
After saying that, he entered the valley. In the valley, the grass was almost as deep as the heads of people. Wang Qinian observed them on the top of the mountain. Seeing that the ambush circle was approaching, a chanting sound came out. A fireball with a big head appeared, and a loud bang appeared, and it was also an attack. The fireball did not target people. As soon as it landed, it was a loud bang. The fire ignited. Betsy wand was in his hand. Seeing Wang Qinian taking action, he waved his hand and a fireball also went out. However, it was much smaller than Wang Qinian. When Raymond saw him, he waved his hand and two crossbow arrows appeared, with cloth strips tied on it, and also ignited the fire. At the same time, he heard the squeak, and the big trees in the valley fell down in response, blocking the retreat.
The fire was together, although it had not dried yet, as long as the fire was together, no matter what, the fire was connected quickly, and there was only a panic: "Hurry up, protect the Baron and rushed out of the valley!" As the singing, a shield enveloped the Baron and Mike. The knights moved and rushed straight forward. When they arrived at the valley, they found that the valley was already filled with big trees that fell.
The infantry under his command were struggling in the fire at this time. Wang Qinian couldn't bear it, but he was still cruel. A whirlwind was generated. The fire took advantage of the wind and rushed up several people. Among the knights, only when they reached the real knight could they stimulate sword energy. Low-level knights were much stronger than ordinary people in their power, but they could not resist such a big fire. In the fire, the knights were wearing armor, but at this time they became a fatal place for them. For a moment, people shouted and neighed.
Franklin was shocked. Betsy didn't expect that the fire would be so big. Only Wang Qinian knew it was normal. On earth, he had seen forest fires on TV, and it was much bigger than these. Looking at the fire at the foot of the mountain and the people struggling in it, several knights finally emerged and ran towards the mountain, including Baron Eden and Mike.
Wang Qinian sighed and began to chant. These are powerhouses, and ordinary soldiers can no longer deal with them unless there are thousands, and Wang Qinian chanted and Betsy began to chant.
As soon as Mike heard the chanting, he knew it was broken, and he hurriedly started singing. Before he finished chanting, a fireball had rushed over. He accelerated his chanting. Finally, at the moment when the chanting came, a faint light shield took shape and a bang, the two were annihilated. He had just breathed a sigh of relief, and the wind blade flashed. Although it was just the basic magic of the wind system, the time was right, and it was tangent on his throat. Blood suddenly splashed and he fell off the horse.
He actually died in the hands of a magic apprentice. As soon as he died, the chanting sound began again. Baron Eden shouted, "I surrender, I surrender!" As soon as he said, the knight beside him sighed, his armor was shrunk, and he threw the sword in his hand to the ground. Several soldiers carefully held up their sickle guns and forced them with their guns.
