MTL - Lord Highlander-Chapter 86 85. Forest Road

  Chapter 86 85. Lindao

  The Fifty-seventh Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment entered Moyunling as an advance army, and sorted out an open space on the **** less than five kilometers away from the main peak of Moyunling, and set it as the camp for the follow-up large troops.

Although the hand-drawn map provided by Baron Sidney was illegible and the lines were messy, the several mountains, ravines, and rivers at the foot of Moyunling Mountain were all clearly marked, and there were even some trees growing in a certain forest area. Clear notes, and some passes that are suitable as blocking locations are also partially explained. This first-hand terrain information finally fell into the hands of the head of the group, Earl Mond Goss.

  Although the location of the camp that Baron Sidney circled out was not adopted by the high-level officials, Baron Sidney, the captain of the Fourth Battalion, actually showed his face in front of the heads of the expeditionary forces.

  This time, Baron Sidney has completed the task of opening up forest roads, which can be regarded as completely washing away the previous shame, and once again proved that he is not a young nobleman relying on nepotism.

The soldiers of the fifty-seventh regiment had just finished setting up the tent, and they received the task assigned by their superiors to build a wooden fence around the camp to resist the surprise attacks of wild beasts and evil spirits. It needs to be at least ten meters high.

  Regimental Commander Mond Goss did not let the soldiers of the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment log nearby, but requisitioned 17 Thunder Rhinos, intending to transport the trees felled when opening the forest road back to the camp.

  These logs were scattered beside the forest road. The soldiers had to use logging axes to cut off the overgrown branches, and then bundled every ten logs into bundles, tied them to Thunder Rhino, and then transported them back to the camp at the foot of Moyunling Mountain.

  He Boqiang, holding a logging axe, cut off a branch of a redwood tree with all his strength, and the red sock standing opposite hurriedly dragged the cut branch into the bushes.

  The main task of the soldiers of the second team today is to sort out the felled trees on both sides of the forest road.

The forest road was very congested. A heavy cavalry regiment and a logistics regiment transporting bed crossbows crowded together and refused to give in to each other. The Thunder Rhinoceros carrying wood was blocked from the outside. The soldiers of the second team cleared the branches of trees in this area After repairing it, he stood idly by the side of the road to watch the excitement.

He Boqiang and Red Socks ran to the front, and saw that the axle of a carriage carrying a crossbow in the forest was broken, and the entire flatbed carriage was stuck in the forest road, blocking the forest road tightly. Rushing to repair the carriage, the heavy cavalry who were blocked behind wanted to rush to the camp to camp this morning, clamoring to push the flatbed cart into the woods next to the forest road.

  Although the logistics regiment is just a group of auxiliary soldiers without any status, it controls most of the supplies in the barracks, and usually has a superior attitude.

  At this time, seeing someone wanting to push the broken-down flatbed truck in the logistics regiment into the woods, he naturally refused to agree.

  When the heavy cavalry sergeant and the head of the logistics regiment were arguing, the heavy cavalry soldiers raised the five-meter-long knight's spear hanging on the saddle in unison, and pointed at the auxiliary soldiers of the logistics department.

A non-commissioned officer of the logistics regiment turned his face on the spot, his body was as agile as a monkey, and he climbed onto the flatbed with his hands and feet, and lifted off the tarpaulin covering the bed crossbow, revealing a brand new bed crossbow inside, and several auxiliary soldiers followed The sergeant boarded the flatbed, quickly untied the rope that fixed the bed crossbow, and began to shake the roulette to adjust the pitch angle vigorously. The bed crossbow made a soft sound, and the giant crossbow bolts that shone coldly aimed at the arrogant heavy cavalry.

This is the first time He Boqiang saw this kind of large-scale ordnance. The main bracket of the ballista is made of wood, but many key parts are made of iron, and some iron plates are actually plated with silver. There is also a piece of magic spar inlaid on the base in the middle, and the whole ballista actually exudes a strong magical atmosphere.

   The auxiliary soldiers of the logistics regiment and the heavy cavalry confronted each other, full of gunpowder.

  People from both ends of the forest road kept gathering towards this side, completely enclosing the place.

  He Boqiang and Red Socks waited in the crowd for a long time, but no one made a move. He Boqiang stood a little numb, so he pulled the red socks out of the crowd.

  Both sides of the forest road are dense forests, which are full of branches,

  Suldak ordered the bearded Cagle to clear out a clearing in the forest, and he took Augustus into the dense forest to kill two rex rabbits. He Boqiang and Red Sock lit a bonfire in the clearing.

  Augustus put two skinned rex rabbits on a long branch, and then set them on the charcoal fire.

  At the beginning, thick smoke billowed in the forest area, and when the branches were burned into charcoal, the fat in the rex rabbit meat fell on the campfire drop by drop, and the smell of barbecued meat drifted far away with the wind.

  The roads are so congested that many people miss their lunch. At this time, they smell the aroma of barbecue and feel their stomachs beating.

The heavy cavalry and the auxiliary soldiers of the logistics regiment settled their lunch on the spot. Everyone ate some easy-to-eat marching rations. Then everyone realized that if they rushed to the camp at this time, they would definitely not be sitting on tree stumps for lunch like they are now. .

   After they were full, the two sides felt that they would not be able to solve any problems at all if they crowded here and continued the stalemate.

   Everyone's anger was not so great, so they began to think about the solution.

  At this time, everyone suddenly found that in the dense forest next to the congested forest road, birch trees were continuously cut down, and rows of trees fell down. The road near the congested area of ​​the forest road was nearly doubled.

  The traffic situation has improved significantly. The heavy cavalry mounted their horses and lined up on the left side of the forest road, slowly passing through the congested area.

  The auxiliary soldiers of the logistics department also began to erect the carts with broken axles, and began to replace the axles on the spot.

Seeing that the traffic on the forest road has become smooth, Suldak led the soldiers of the second team to stop cutting trees. Everyone cleaned up the branches of the felled trees and waited for Lei Tingxi to come over and transport these giant trees back to the camp. go.

  But... no one seems to have noticed that the group of people who changed the traffic situation on the forest road were the infantry soldiers of the second squad who were pruning the branches beside the forest road.

   "Thought they were going to fight..."

  Red Sock put down the logging ax in his hand, wiped the sweat from his face vigorously, and said regretfully.

   Cagle was beside him, holding a bundle of cut branches and throwing it into the grass beside him.

   said to Red Sox: "Hey, are you really that boring?"

  Red Sock was about to speak when he saw a group of knights in patterned armor.

The group of people rode strong black war horses and walked silently along the forest road. They exuded an aura that ordinary people could not match. The costumed knights gave up one-third of the road for the constructed knights to pass.

  No one dared to provoke this group of constructed knights. When they passed by, He Boqiang clearly felt that almost no one in the forest road spoke.

  Only Red Socks pulled He Boqiang's sleeve carelessly, and said excitedly: "Little Duck, look... this is the Constructed Knight of our Bena Legion..."

  The bearded Cagle leaned against a fallen giant tree, looked at Red Sock with a look of disgust, and said, "Even if you are the Duke, you don't seem to need to be so excited."

He Boqiang sat on the side of the road and carefully looked at those burly knights in costumes. It is said that they were wearing expensive magic pattern costumes, and the black war horses under them were also covered with a layer of armor, and the shiny black fur was faint. Some dark lines similar to scales can be seen.

  The Constructed Knight carries the coercion of some strong people, which is a bit breathless.
