Chapter 182: The Shape of Calamity


September. otbnkotgt It was at this time that the Centaur army arrived on the banks of the Vistula River.

There was no resistance, no light cavalry harassment, no collision with the main force.

Everything is smooth sailing.

But this is natural.

It would be crazy to put the chips to resist the Centaur army in the plains east of the Vistula River.

The Polotsk merchants in the north finally relented.

While accepting William's purchase, integration, and even relief plans, he dispatched a large number of river fleets and almost blocked the entire Vistula River.

If there is such a fleet blockade during the high water season in summer, the human world can sit back and relax.

However, alas, it is autumn.

During the dry season, there are at least two places where the water level of the Vistula River is insufficient and you can trek across the river on foot.

These two places are the estuary areas controlled by William's two fortresses.

"Enough.

The river fleet blocks most of the water.

The two places that can be trekked on foot are defended with fortresses.

There are sufficient troops, sufficient manpower, as well as sufficient weapons and equipment, ammunition and food supplies.

We can win.

Yes.

Yes, we can definitely win.

If I were Salida Khan, I would stop after a few tentative attacks, but reluctantly send an envoy to negotiate peace with us."

Just downstream of the Vistula River, close to the river mouth fortress of the Principality of Mystia.

William said to Charumi in a relaxed tone: "We are safe, yes.

Very safe.

Even if we take a step back, the other party is really crazy and wants to cross the Vistula River and attack the human world.

In the end, they The good strategic target is not here, but in the south, at the mouth of the Vistula River.

It's close to Krakow.

It is the capital of the Grand Duchy of Mazovia.

Although reluctant, it is true that Krakow is much more important than Cherkesburg.

Therefore, it will still be the father who takes the limelight this time.

Ah, when I think about it, my father is quite lucky to have a son like me, isn’t he?”

"Maybe.

Who knows."

Shalumi replied, and then asked tentatively: "Then you just leave the princess at home, is it really okay?"

"This is a battlefield."

William replied: "It is not a place for children and women."

Hearing what William said, Shalumi's smile became even more obvious: "What about me, who am I?"

William didn't answer.

The next moment, William drew his sword out of its sheath.

A ray of silver light stabbed towards Shalumi's neck.

Almost at the same time, Shalumi's long sword was also unsheathed, facing each other tit for tat, and stabbing straight at the tip of William's sword.

The two of them almost had a tacit understanding.

They withdrew their moves at the same time at the next moment, and then moved between their eyebrows.

Without any time to spare, William and Shalumi stayed on the spot and exchanged sixteen moves.

The speed is almost the same, the angle is almost the same, and the location of the move is also the same.

If any outsiders saw this scene, they would probably think that it was a joke made by both parties under tacit understanding, and it was certainly not the kind that had been rehearsed for a long time.

Although they learn the same swordsmanship and choose the same tactics, it is also an important reason, but it is not the most important one.

More importantly, it is because their strengths are basically the same and their minds are connected.

"That's it."

William sheathed his sword and said, "I have nothing to worry about you."

"Really?"

After hearing what William said, Shalumi was very happy at first, but then her happiness turned into distress and confusion: "Why do I train almost twice as long as you every day?

I remember that some time ago, I can overwhelm you.

Why is it a draw now?"

"Because of the heart.

Because of the heart."

William stood up and opened his arms: "Rather than simply training your body, training your heart is more important.

A strong warrior must not only be physically strong, but also Only the combination of the two can unleash a person's full strength."

"Well, I can understand that William, you are in a happy mood now, and your strength has been improved."

"No."

William shook his finger: "It's not that I'm in a happy mood now, but that I've been in a happy mood recently."

"Because your plan worked" "Because my plan worked."

"Then that's why you didn't bring that woman here."

After that, Shalumi said something like this with bad intentions: "Because the plan has been successful, it means she is no longer useful.

After this war, Mazovia is already in our possession, and the Trieste family is no longer useful.”

"Evil-minded."

William tapped Shalumi's face: "Don't say such disappointing things.

Think about yourself.

If one day, Shalumi, you are no longer of use to me, what will I do?

What about you?"

"How is that possible?"

Although William's words were harsh, Shalomi didn't pay attention at all.

Although the two people missed two beats in what they said, both of them could fully understand what the other meant.

What Shalumi said was that Elise was no longer useful, so just throw it away.

William said that in addition to "useful or not", emotion is also a very important part.

Even though the Trieste family has no use value to him, he still likes Elise.

Therefore, the engagement with the Trieste family will still be maintained.

Of course, such a response would make Shalumi feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, William put himself in others' shoes and hoped that Shalumi would put herself in her shoes.

If she is now of no use to William, then what will happen to her.

Of course, this can be regarded as a reassurance for Shalumi.

Tell her even if she can't help him in the future.

William would still like her.

However, Shalumi was not fooled at all.

In other words, Shalumi believed that such a thing would never happen.

This is true both emotionally and in William's career.

Charlotte considers herself William's best assistant.

It is also an indispensable factor in the rise of the Hereford family.

That's it.

Now that Shalumi has such confidence, William can't say anything else.

The two of them talked for a while about the Vistula defense line, and it was getting late.

Hungry or not, it's time to eat.

"Let's go eat together."

So Shalumi said to William.

Just when William was about to nod in agreement, the door of the conference room opened with a bang.

Attendant John, who was also the commander of the 3rd Infantry Regiment of the New Army under William, rushed in almost rolling and crawling.

Look at William and then at Charlotte.

I opened my mouth and wanted to speak, but I couldn't catch my breath and nothing came out.

"What's the matter, Little John?"

Although he was not happy that Little John was so rude and interrupted his alone time with Charlotte.

But William decided to forgive him.

Little John is not an ignorant person.

And just by looking at him, you can tell that something serious is indeed happening.

"Master, hurry up, hurry up, there are centaurs outside."

Although his sentence was incomplete, the real key words were clearly explained.

William and Shalomi looked at each other, and then ran towards the conference room in unison.

They ran out of the barracks one after another, then ran up the stairs and up the fortress's protective wall, pressed on the crenellations of the fortress, and looked towards the east side of the Vistula River in the light of the setting sun.

Although there was nothing, William still felt a sense of chilling and huge oppression.

"Nothing."

Shalumi swallowed the second half of her sentence.

Because immediately afterwards, the sound of horse hooves came from the east bank of the Vistula River.

First of all, there are countless spear shafts, gun shafts and high-flying flags, Sulu ingot spears and nine-pin white flags.

After that, there were figures one by one, followed by the horses under the cavalry.

Suddenly, these flags, weapons and cavalry occupied their entire field of vision.

William looked around and saw that in addition to the cavalry, there were centaur warriors on the east bank of the Vistula River.

Under the dim light of the setting sun, countless Tarta troops stretched across the sky, as if they were boundless.

The men and horses, whether they were Slavs or nomads, were all unusually quiet.

It is precisely because of this unusual silence that the atmosphere on the entire battlefield has become extremely depressing.

"Jiuzao Baizhen.

Salida Khan actually chose this place as the main direction of attack."

William murmured to himself, and then thought of what he had sworn to say before.

What Salida Khan did was completely beyond him.

Unexpectedly, he did not attack the mouth of the upper Vistula near Krakow, where William's father, Duke Otto, was guarding.

The fortress where William was stationed was chosen as the breakthrough point.

"Yes, this is the right choice.

This place is closer to Mystia.

Now, it is our Hereford family that supports the Goths' defense line.

Only by attacking here can we better threaten the Hereford family.

It is more important."

The thing is, there is no father here.

The guard here is Salida Khan, and I am worthy of being Salida Khan.

Good, very good, very good."

William murmured to himself like this, and then stared at the tallest and most conspicuous nine-pin white flag in the Tartariya Khanate army.

Although he couldn't see clearly, he was sure that Salida Khan was there.

"Do you really think I'm easy to bully?

Do you really think I'm no match for you?

It's a good idea to kill the enemy in the future while I'm young, but I'm still too naive.

Salida Khan, do you really think that I will be afraid of you?"

William drew his sword, pointed in the direction of Jiu Zhi Bai and shouted like this 160420oshow7:
