The light cavalry in front had passed by, and the marching archers heard chaotic sounds one after another. When they looked up, they saw pieces of stone and wood rolling down from the mountain more than 100 meters high.
"careful!"
"Be alert!"
"Mountain wall!"
Many centurion officers shouted together, alert soldiers were already pointing towards the mountain wall beside the stone road, and many archers drew their bows and pointed at the places where the grass was turbulent.
The light infantry of the Second Army looked at the situation below and ran quickly towards the stronghold.
A young soldier excitedly asked the mature-looking man in his thirties next to him: "Captain, their more than 100 light cavalry have just crossed here, and the troops in front have only walked more than 100 meters. Why don't we wait for them to walk a little longer?" , there are more people putting stones and wood."
The middle-aged captain in his thirties glared at the young soldier fiercely and said loudly: "Don't you want to live? Although that may be better, as long as the light cavalry in front abandon their horses and climb up the mountain directly, Come and surround us, and we will all stay here.¡±
"Oh! So that's what it is." The young soldier nodded suddenly, and said to the captain excitedly: "We are on the mountain, and they are at the bottom of the mountain. We can tell the general to lead the troops to shoot arrows here, and then the infantry will charge. Go down, cut them into pieces, and kill them ruthlessly."
The middle-aged captain's mouth twitched, he raised his right hand and hit the young soldier on the head, and said loudly: "Didn't we think of what you thought of?"
"The Elantra army has at least more than 5,000 people. We only have more than 700 people here. The level of such a steep mountain is around 65 degrees, 70 degrees, and 80 degrees. It is very difficult for them to attack, and it is even more difficult for us to attack. Here At this height, people's eyes will jump with fear when they look down. As for the infantry charging downwards, you guys might as well just jump down and crush them to death as if they were human flesh pills."
"Although our bows, arrows, stones, and wood can attack them, the accuracy is not worth mentioning at such a high and far place. What's more, once they are attacked and alerted, we can't reach them if they disperse their formation. No, we can shoot arrows, and we can use shields to defend and dodge!"
"Captain, I have another question"
The squad leader pushed the young soldier away fiercely and cursed: "You guys are not done yet! Leave quickly! I'll tell you when we get back, we must cross this mountain top within 5 minutes, otherwise you and I will both Gonna stay.¡±
¡¡
"ah!"
"I twisted my foot."
"Hurry up and grab me, my shield has fallen into the ravine next to it."
"What a fool! I almost pissed myself with fear!"
"Are you okay?"
¡¡
Centurions Rafa, Chituton, Parmisi, and Lamour quickly observed the situation and asked the soldiers. The huge advancing team paused for more than five or six minutes. The soldiers in front continued to move some wood blocking the road. , stones, and soil were moved aside to provide an unobstructed path for the people behind.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Fourteen people twisted their feet and fell into a small drainage ditch while evading in panic, causing a severe sense of mental oppression to the soldiers of the Elantra army.
At this time, the forward army was no longer as relaxed as it was during the previous march. The atmosphere gradually became depressing, and many soldiers had to learn to be vigilant.
Rafa looked at the steep and tall mountains and shouted to the team: "Keep moving forward! Everyone, stay vigilant, don't leave your shields, and be careful of losses."
¡¡
At this time, Lin Fenghan had led the vanguard cavalry to the foot of the mountain above the mountain. This mountain pass was between two higher mountains. The two mountains were uneven and protruded a lot from the ground. The pass was higher than what Lin Fenghan and others could see. The road is more than 100 meters away. From the entrance of the mountain road to the bottom of the mountain road, it is 1 kilometer long.
From the hilly heights to the entrance of the pass, the height continues to rise. The average slope from the pass to the foot of the mountain is more than 60 degrees. The mountains of the pass are dominated by rocks and green grass, with a small number of trees stubbornly climbing out of the rocks. Absorb nutrients and grow robustly. On the mountain, Lin Fenghan and others could still clearly see a large group of soldiers cutting wood, carrying gravel, and building protective fortifications at the bottom of the mountain.
