Lord Highlander

Chapter 24 23. The Rolling Stone on the Top of the Mountain

At night, the mountain wind blew across the top of the mountain wall, and there was a sound of 'woo-woo'.

The soldiers guarding the mountain wall took turns to rest. They dared not take off their armor, so they could only sit in a row leaning against the mountain wall to rest.

The armor on the heavy armored infantry of the Grimm Empire is a full-covered heavy armor, which is almost completely covered except for the hands, feet and neck. Become a cage that confines the body.

However, the advantages of this kind of armor in battle are also very obvious, especially when fighting with the natives of Handanal County, the heavy armored infantry regiment has almost no casualties. In fact, it also has a great advantage in dealing with hyena groups, but Sidney The Baron's battle plan was a bit aggressive. The soldiers exhausted a lot of energy during the march, and before they had time to rest, they were besieged by hyenas.

Otherwise, the hyenas in the Gandhar Mountains would not pose a threat at all to the heavy armored infantry.

The wall of fire effectively blocked the hyena group, but it also trapped the soldiers of the fourth brigade on the edge of the mountain wall. The incoming heat wave made everyone's mouth dry.

The soldiers of the No. 1 Squadron didn't have to guard the gap in the fire wall. The hyena group was very afraid of fire and didn't dare to rush in.

Even if one or two red-eyed hyenas occasionally rushed into the gap, they would be killed directly by the soldiers guarding the exit. The hyena's body was thrown into the fire, and the flame quickly ignited the fur on the hyena's body, and the hyena's carcass became flaming in the fire. It was scorched, and then the limbs and tail were ignited at high temperature, and finally the entire scorched body also began to burst into flames, and finally became a part of the wall of fire.

...

Jielongnan brought back ten pots of water in one breath, and imitated the other teams, put the iron pot next to the fire wall, and cooked a large pot of thick marching rations and rice cereal that was usually difficult to swallow. He Boqiang felt that the sweet rice paste could flow into his stomach without swallowing.

He Boqiang was only wearing a thin leather armor, so he didn't rush to the forefront when fighting the hyena. Although the muscles all over his body were incomparably sore, his body was not actually injured.

He Boqiang closed his eyes and sat on the stone wall. He could feel that the second star in the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness was completely lit up, and then, together with the first bright star, emitted a soft gleam, and these gleams gradually In order to restore his physical strength, he really wanted to ask Suldak if this was also the case in his body.

He felt that all of this was too inconceivable, and there was actually a star map in his body, but he was still unable to speak. Such abstract things could not be expressed with simple gestures, and could only be stuffed in his heart.

Seeing that He Boqiang quickly stood up from the side of the stone wall, he gave up his position to the black boy Jie Longnan.

The members of the second team, including Suldak, believed that He Boqiang was able to recover his physical strength so quickly because he was wearing a light leather armor.

Suldak's left leg was bitten by a hyena. His leg was wrapped in greaves. The hound's fangs just penetrated the armor, leaving four blood holes in Suldak's leg. The wound did not cause a second wound. Torn, applied some antidote when bitten.

At this time, He Boqiang helped Suldak remove the greaves from his injured leg. He saw that the four blood holes bitten by the hyena had congealed into scabs. A simple bandage was done on the wound, and he helped Surdak put back on the greaves.

The old soldier leaned on the stone wall and talked about the battle with the evil ghost army on the Kampato River. Although that battle was the biggest victory in the Warsaw plane in recent years, what no one knew was that there were nearly seventy heavy troops The A infantry regiment was completely wiped out by the evil ghost army in that battle.

The current level of fighting is just an appetizer for him.

But probably only He Boqiang noticed that when the cigarette was lit, veteran Ian's hands shook so badly that he almost extinguished the little flame that had just ignited.

A story of veteran Ian, let the tension of the members of the second team relax a little.

Jielongnan leaned against the stone wall, trying to take off his arm armor and trousers, and take a nap during the short rest time.

But his behavior was immediately stopped by Captain Sam.

Seeing that some members of the surrounding team even took off their breastplates, Hei Kid couldn't understand Captain Sam's decision, but he didn't complain, he just sat there, a little sullen.

It didn't take long for Baron Sidney's password to pass down, asking the soldiers to camp and rest under the mountain wall.

...

Hyenas howled from time to time at night, but the hyenas kept outside by the fire wall did not leave.

This was the first time He Boqiang spent the night in the wild. He lay on the rocky ground, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

He Boqiang was a little worried that once the fire wall was extinguished, those hyenas would rush up and tear up all the sleeping soldiers of the fourth brigade beside the mountain wall. The black kid next to him, Jie Longnan, was in a deep sleep, and it was very uncomfortable to sleep wearing the armor. In his dreams, he cried out to take off the armor.

Lying on his back on the rocky ground, he could see the sky full of stars when he opened his eyes. His body has fully recovered, and his body is not as sore as before. He wants to walk around in the camp, but he is afraid of being caught by the night watchman. The soldier caused trouble for Suldak and Captain Sam during the interrogation, so he could only twist his body a few times to force himself to sleep for a while.

There was a soft gurgling sound along the mountain wall. He Boqiang didn't pay much attention to it at first, but thought it might be the natural sound produced by the mountain wind blowing over the cliff.

But then a trace of sand and gravel suddenly fell on He Boqiang's face, and he sat up from the ground vigilantly.

At first, it was like the crackling sound of drizzle slapping on banana leaves, and then it was like countless drummers beating drums. The rolling sound gradually increased, and the entire mountain wall began to vibrate slightly, and it was like thousands of horses galloping between the mountain walls——and then , Impressively appeared in his mind the image of countless boulders rolling down the hillside.

He Boqiang stood up from the ground abruptly, and desperately kicked Sulzak and Jielongnan who were beside him violently. Sulzak woke up from a deep sleep without waiting for him to react. , and pulled him up from the ground.

Immediately afterwards, He Boqiang kicked every member of the second team hard, and ran towards the gap in the fire wall without waiting for Suldak to fully wake up.

"Hey, what's the matter!"

Suldak was involved in a leg injury and limped while running. He asked He Boqiang with a confused face.

He Boqiang ran forward with a blank face, and pointed to the top of his head with his hand.

Suldak also heard the rumbling voice at this time, his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted to the dazed Jeronan behind him: "Jelonnan, call Sam up, the landslide has fallen!"

Suldak's voice was enough to wake up the soldiers of the third squadron on duty at night from their shock, and the camp immediately became chaotic.

At this moment, He Boqiang and Suldak had already run to the exit of the fire wall, looking at the countless pairs of blood-red eyes that were ferocious outside, He Boqiang clenched the Roman sword in his hand, and got a square shield from the weapon pile, and desperately fought with them Suldak rushed out.

Members of the second team rushed out of the camp.

The gravel and gravel on the top of the mountain poured down like a torrential rain...
