On November 9, after several days of running, the 100,000 cavalry of the Ice Bear Tribe finally entered within a thousand kilometers of Eskil City. For the various tribes in the ice and snow wasteland, if
If an army of 100,000 men approaches within 1,000 kilometers from the core of their own tribe, with the speed of the cavalry, this distance is basically equivalent to the range where two tribes can face to face with bayonets.
This is a distance that is dangerously close to the red line of warning for most tribes, and is also a distance of war.
The Ice Bear Tribe's army is still about 1,000 kilometers away from Eskil City, and the forward of the army is less than 400 kilometers away from the small town of Shatta, west of Eskil City.
By this time, Zhang Tie could basically confirm that Erqida did not lie to him. The entire Ice Bear Tribe was a gift left to him by Erqida. For him, who was confirmed to be the leader of the Ice Bear Tribe,
Guy, the entire tribe, whether they are the most ordinary warriors or figures like the High Priest of Sarin, have enough respect for him. Every order he makes, even if it is ridiculous and seems to cost the Ice Bear Tribe a huge price.
can be resolutely implemented and implemented.
For example, this time, he ordered the Ice Bear Tribe to attack Eskil City. The original intention of the order had been guessed by Neymar of the Spencer family. Zhang Tie really just wanted to confirm his support for the Ice Bear Tribe.
It's just a ruling authority. If Erqida's prophecy has lost its sanctity among the Ice Bear Tribe, then Zhang Tie doesn't have the time to waste time with a bunch of people who want to use him as a puppet.
Erqida wants him to shoulder heavy responsibilities for the future of the Ice Bear Tribe. So, for Zhang Tie, the first thing he needs to confirm is that the Ice Bear Tribe is worthy of his responsibility. Otherwise, what is great about it?
To him, the prophecy of the prophet-high priest was just the delusion of a crazy old man. It had no binding force on him at all. He did not think he owed anything to Erqida or the Slavs, and he had not reached an agreement with anyone.
No agreement or commitment has been made. Therefore, there is no need to take any responsibility for the future of the ice and snow wasteland.
If he had to take responsibility, Zhang Tie felt that his responsibilities to Aurora and Sabrina combined might be more than his responsibilities to the entire Slavic people.
In Zhang Tie's plan, if he can really control the Ice Bear Tribe, then after the Ice Bear Tribe's army arrives at Xiata Town, he will stop the army and turn around at Xiata Town to head north.
.Return to the Ice Bear Tribe. This action is considered an armed patrol. If the Ice Bear Tribe is not worthy of his responsibility, then he will leave and take a boat directly from the Ice and Snow Wasteland in Eskil City to go back.
Black Flame City.
Zhang Tie has ordered the forwards of the tribal army to stop advancing after arriving at Xiata Town and wait for the arrival of the tribal army. According to the army's current marching speed, at most the day after tomorrow, the army of the tribal alliance will arrive at Xiata Town. Then the troops
After resting for a day near the small town of Xiata, we changed direction and returned to the tribe.
…
Although he had only been out of the ground for a few days, Zhang Tie had clearly felt that the temperature in the ice and snow wasteland was getting lower and lower day by day. The biting chill in the wind blowing from the north was getting heavier and heavier. The entire ice and snow wasteland began to...
Entering the bleak winter.
After the army set up camp in the evening, Zhang Tie was not idle, but went directly to the Quake camp to inspect.
Zhang Tie was very curious about such a powerful creature as the saber-toothed beast. Through these few days of contact, Zhang Tie found that this creature was simply a naturally powerful mount. Although it may not necessarily be the strongest mount in this era, at least it is
The best and strongest mount Zhang Tie has ever seen.
The speed, endurance, load-bearing and riding comfort of the saber-toothed beast are all the best among the mounts Zhang Tie has ever seen. According to people around him, if the saber-toothed beast is in certain harsh environments, the saber-toothed beast is completely
He can go without eating or drinking for a week and still be able to cooperate with the rider in fighting. This ability of Sabretooth Shou alone is enough to be astonishing.
The maximum running speed of a saber-toothed beast can reach about 120 kilometers per hour. The combat load of an ordinary saber-toothed beast is more than 1,500 kilograms. If the adult saber-toothed beast itself weighs more than 4 tons, the total weight is close to 56
A ton of stuff rushed over at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour. With such an impact, it is estimated that nothing except the city wall can withstand it.
For Mjolnir in the past few days of marching, if it were not necessary to consider the speed of the army, Mjolnir would have been able to rush to Esquier City as early as yesterday.
In Thor's Hammer camp, the cavalry were taking off the armor from their saber-toothed beasts. Many of the cavalrymen did not eat themselves, but were busy feeding, watering and grooming the saber-toothed beasts.
Looking at the patience of those big and thick men when they served the saber-toothed beasts, Zhang Tie bet that these men would never use these methods to serve their women at home.
For the cavalry of Quake, the saber-toothed beast is no longer their mount, but their brother, partner and family. For most cavalry, because of the long lifespan of the saber-toothed beast, their entire life
Among them, they can form the closest companionship with at most one or two saber-toothed beasts, so the cavalrymen take special care and love of this partner of theirs.
"What is that?" Zhang Tie saw some cavalrymen taking out purple pancake-like objects as big as hats and throwing them into the mouth of a saber-toothed beast, which ate it with gusto.
I walked over curiously.
As long as he is not pretending to be a fool, Zhang Tie actually has no airs. He likes to mingle with the people below. Just like when he was in Brape, Zhang Tie, who is a well-paid bureaucrat in the Army Logistics Department, often gets into trouble.
In the repair shop, I mingled with the mechanics, often drilling in and out under the chassis of the vehicle, getting covered in oil and dirt, without any obstacles at all.
It's just that if Zhang Tie lowered his body at that time, the people below him would feel friendly. If Zhang Tie lowered his body at this time, the people below him would be flattered and greatly encouraged. Zhang Tie is still the same Zhang Tie, but his status
Different, the effect produced when doing the same thing is also different.
Seeing Zhang Tie coming over, the Thor's Hammer cavalryman who was feeding the saber-toothed beast suddenly became excited and quickly stood at attention.
"Don't get excited, I just saw you feeding the saber-toothed beast a strange thing. It seems to be a little different from what other people feed, so come and have a look!" Zhang Tie said kindly, "What did you just feed?
Can you show it to me?"
"Reporting to the captain, what I am feeding Senia is perilla grass!" The soldier replied loudly, and as he spoke, he handed over a hat-sized round cake like the one Zhang Tie saw just now.
Zhang Tie took it and found that it was quite heavy, about five or six kilograms. It was a kind of dried broad-leaved herbaceous plant leaves, rolled into a cake shape. Zhang Tie remembered that Sabrina once told him that it was like a sword.
All saber-toothed beasts eat meat, and this is what we have seen in the past few days. Most of the things that the saber-toothed cavalry feed the saber-toothed beasts are dried meat.
Sabrina happened to be by Zhang Tie's side, so Zhang Tie looked at her questioningly.
"My patriarch, don't look at me like that, I'm not lying to you..." Sabrina glanced at Zhang Tie charmingly, "This kind of perilla grass is a specialty of Gozdali Plain.
It is also something that saber-toothed beasts like to eat. Except for the Gozdali Plain, it is not found anywhere else in the entire ice and snow wasteland. Therefore, when raising saber-toothed beasts in other places, naturally you can only feed it meat, which is in Gozdali.
In the plains, I heard that perilla grass is not cultivated much, and only when there is no perilla grass, meat is used instead."
Is the saber-toothed animal an omnivore? It took Zhang Tie a moment to react. But if you think about it carefully, it’s not surprising. Many large land animals, such as bears and elephants, are omnivores or even herbivores.
, aren’t horses and cows also herbivores? Who dares to say that they can’t run fast and not strong enough? The legendary dinosaur that has long been extinct and is the largest and strongest is also a herbivore.
Zhang Tie silently kept the name of Perilla grass in his mind, thinking that he would wait until he got to Gozdali Plain to see what was so special about this thing.
Zhang Tie made a circle in Thor's Hammer, and when he was about to go back, he suddenly found an airship flying towards the camp on the horizon. Although the airship was not as exaggerated as the Stormrage, it was still huge, and the gleaming
The glowing hull of the boat is even more gorgeous in the air. There is a huge bear head logo surrounded by gears on the hull, which is very conspicuous.
"Did Eskil City send you a beautiful woman?" Sabrina said hurriedly, winking at Zhang Tie.
"I came here to understand the intentions of the Ice Bear Tribe!" Zhang Tie smiled.
"Haven't you ever heard of the Spencer women?" Sabrina asked.
"What's the meaning?"
Sabrina then told Zhang Tie this allusion that was widely circulated in the ice and snow wasteland, "I bet you that the big shots coming from the Spencer family must have brought the Spencer family with them this time.
There may be more than one beautiful woman, it seems they are planning to use a honey trap on you!"
"Is my image so bad? Do the Spencer family think that they can handle such a big thing with just two women?" Zhang Tie said with a hint of laughter.
"It seems that I have caused trouble for you!" Sabrina sighed.
Zhang Tie laughed loudly, and without caring about the eyes of the people around him, he patted Sabrina's plump and straight buttocks, and then walked towards his tent, "What nonsense are you talking about? As a man, can you still be afraid?"
Are women involved? Let’s go, then let’s see what the women of the Spencer family are like!”
Seeing Zhang Tie's unconcerned look, Sabrina smiled and followed Zhang Tie towards the camp in the distance.
The huge airship stopped a mile away from the camp, and then a group of people got off the airship and headed towards the camp... (To be continued...)
