Chapter 171: first day

Chapter One Hundred Seventy One
Roddy has never seen so many warships!
On the day of the decisive battle, the early morning sun had just risen, and the sea was covered with a layer of golden wave scales. The weather is surprisingly good, the sea is calm and the waves are calm, and the shadows of sails faintly appear from the junction of the sea and the sky...
Immediately, there were more and more sail shadows at those points. The points became dozens of points, and dozens of points became a large area...
The dark warships gradually approached the coastline, and then stopped at a distance less than a kilometer from the coast.
The man-made ships on the Roland mainland are indeed clever. The huge warships have several floors, and they are extremely strong. Each ship is like a small fortress on the sea. Sailors on the large mast lookout were flagging each other, and then they lined up in the sea.
Standing on the city wall, Zige couldn't help frowning and said: "The Roland people's boat is really not simple. We can't build such a big warship... Such a big boat, can one ship hold hundreds of people? "
Although Milo stood one meter away from Zigerodi, he spent a long time in the north and knew a little bit about the situation in the Roland continent. He shook his head and said, "It's still a small one. Send all the people up. This kind of warship is only a second or third class in the Roland Continent. A ship is equipped with four fire magicians and a dozen artillery. The hull of this kind of warship is empty. It can carry goods and people. If it is only for transporting soldiers, a boat can hold three to five hundred people. If you encounter the opponent's first-class warship, it is not surprising that one ship can carry more than 1,000 people."
"More than a thousand people?" Zige took a breath: "A boat with more than a thousand people, how big is that boat..."
Roddy was silent, looking at the enemy fleet on the sea, his eyes flashing.
Zieg suddenly said: "I think they have only a few hundred ships this time. These hundreds of ships can hold two to three thousand people at most. Why are there so few?"
Milo smiled coldly: "It's not a few hundred, there are more than two hundred in total. I recognize their flags. Those with white cross striped flags on the sails are the main ships of the detachment. A Roland detachment is probably About ten ships, you can count how many ships they have with a white cross-stripe flag. Look... the ship with the black cross-stripe is the real big ship of the Roland people I said! That must be It's the handsome ship of their leading army."
Roddy said indifferently: "There are more than two hundred, you can't all pretend to be people, there are horses and grain equipment, this time there will be no more than 20,000 people."
While talking, countless small boats were put down on the opponent’s warship. Those pointed boats were filled with soldiers. About one boat had 20 or 30 people. The soldiers took up their oars and struggling to paddle the water. After a while, the sea was already covered. The densely packed boats, those boats scattered on the golden ocean, came towards the coast!
A stern look flashed in Qige's eyes, and he couldn't help but said: "My lord, when they landed for a while, taking advantage of their unsteady footing, I took the Spike Army out for a while, and the opponent was only 20,000 cavalry at most. Three charges can be defeated!"
Watching the small boats gradually approaching the coast, some of the boats that were fast in front had already reached the shore. The soldiers above put down their oars, took a sword and jumped off the boat, wading waist-deep. The sea water ran over to the beach.
"Lord Duke, now is the time!" Zieg said excitedly: "They still have time to line up when they go ashore. Let's kill them now. The Spikes can easily eat these people!"
Roddy took a breath, didn't look at Zieg, just said lightly: "No!" After a pause, he added: "No attack without my order."
Having said this, Roddy looked at the army of the Roland people on the shore who had already walked to the coast, his eyes were calm, then he turned and walked down the city wall, and left like this.
Zieg frowned, but he heard Milo sneered next to him: "Deputy Commander Zieg, don't you understand what the Lord Duke meant?"
Zieg glanced at Miro and said coldly, "Do you understand?"
Milo smiled slightly, and a deep expression appeared on his thin face: "Obviously, these guys are just the vanguard troops sent by the Roland people. Their task is to get ashore and stand still and test our reaction. You now carry It’s not difficult for the cavalry to go out and kill these two thousand people. The two thousand people are basically planning to throw them out to ask for directions. You beat them and they run back to the sea. Do you think our warships can survive at sea? Are they? When they land in a different place, your cavalry can't always stay on the shore, right? Lord Duke meant to let them go ashore! The more they come, the better! The sea is the world of their Roland people. But when it comes to land, that's our territory!"
In this way, thousands of boats from the other side landed, and 20,000 soldiers finally boarded the land of Bright Continent.
These two thousand men were infantry soldiers. After landing, they immediately found a place to build a fortification. When they went ashore, many boats carried some wood and equipment, and they actually set up tents and fortifications. On the city wall, they could see them doing ping-pong from morning to night. From a distance, the coast outside the thundering city Countless tents and fortifications have been built densely on it. The densely dense ant-like tents cover the entire coast, which can be used by an army of more than 100,000 people.
These people were as busy as engineers and soldiers, showing no signs of vigilance, and they didn't even separate thousands of people for defense under the city. Twenty thousand people are all working intensely, and it seems that they don't worry about whether the enemy in the distant city will suddenly come out.
At night, Roddy walked up the city wall again and took a look outside the city from a distance. He couldn't help frowning and suddenly whispered: "Miro..."
Milo froze for a moment. He didn't expect that the Duke Tulip, who had never been right with him, would take the initiative to speak to him.
Roddy slowly said, "Did you find it? It's a bit strange."
Milo's eyes were also a little worried: "Site, did you find out?" Milo said coldly: "The other party's commander is also a smart man. He knew our thoughts a long time ago, so he decided that we would not attack. His vanguard determined that we wanted a decisive battle on the land, so they would let their troops land. So... these vanguard forces did not use any force to prevent our surprise attack... They knew we would not go out to fight them. ."
Roddy nodded: "It is true. Our plan is indeed to release them ashore, and then use our advantage on land to defeat them. But the other side seems to understand this too... It seems that the opponent's commander is not easy. people!"
Milo raised his eyebrows, and when he heard Roddy say "we", a strange color flashed across his face, as if he wanted to say something.
Roddy glanced at him and said coldly: "General Miró, I know you don’t like me, not only because of the grievances between the family, but also for some personal reasons-but I want to tell you that the situation is now The battle is about to begin. If you are still a man, if you are a general of the empire, a warrior of the Lionheart family, then no matter what grievances we have between us, we will wait until the battle is over!"
Milo was silent for a while, then coldly replied: "Site, I admit that I hate you! But don't worry! Although Milo is not a good person, at least I am a man!"
After saying this, Milo took a cold look at the city and said indifferently: "There is nothing to look at. Tomorrow their large forces will land ashore and be stationed in this barracks. I'll go back first, and prepare for a battle tomorrow. !" He stopped looking at Roddy, turned and strode away.
The night has come, and a bonfire is brightly lit on the coast far from the city. A large and simple military camp has been basically completed. There are enough tents for at least two hundred thousand people to live, and simple fortifications. , Wooden wall fences, etc. have been erected, but it is ridiculous that the gate of the barracks is wide open, and even a guard is not left at the gate. The 20,000 leading troops also stopped the construction work. They put down the tools in their hands and took up their weapons. They lined up to the countless small boats on the seashore. Then the soldiers lined up on the boats, and the small boats re-drew towards the big ones on the sea. The warship actually left an empty military camp on the coast...
Roddy didn't know when he moved a chair and sat on the city wall. While sneering, he watched the soldiers from the mainland of Roland who built the barracks and leave easily...Aren't they afraid that we would go out and ruin their barracks?
There was a chill in Roddy's eyes: "The commander of the Roland people, did you deliberately provoke me by doing this? You want to deliberately humiliate me? You deliberately left the new barracks just built just to tell me that you see through ours. As for the behavior, you are sure that I will not go out of the city to hinder your landing? Will not attack your vanguard?"
The gaze in his eyes turned into contemplation: "You have come ashore so confidently, don't you know that you can't beat us on land? You walked ashore so swaggering and irritating me, is it really that way? Are you sure?"
Looking at the barracks that stretch for miles under the city, the empty barracks at the moment, I'm afraid it will be full tomorrow!
A big battle is about to begin, but the first day of the war, it was so peaceful...
