Chapter 216: Beast Army
"How bold, how dare you be rude to the Queen! Take it down for me!"
Arilang gave an order, and the surrounding barbarian soldiers immediately rushed towards Yu Hao.
"stop!"
At this moment, Alina shouted and slapped Arilang on the face.
"Who told you to treat my distinguished guest like this? Get off!"
"I..." Arilang wanted to say something else, but seeing Alina getting angry, he had to retreat angrily.
The surrounding barbarian soldiers also put away their sabers, glanced at Yu Hao threateningly, and slowly exited the king's tent.
Alina put away the seriousness on her face, put on her clothes, smiled, and said, "Consort, I didn't scare you, did I?"
Yu Hao snorted coldly and sat down. Since Alina chose to trade Zhu An for him, she would not kill him so easily, so Yu Hao was not panicked at all.
Seeing that Yu Hao didn't speak, Alina continued: "I have invited my consort here, and I still want my consort to submit to me. As long as you are willing to divorce the princess of Daqian and marry me, I am willing to share it with you." How about the throne?"
Alina said and winked at Yu Hao charmingly.
But she, who had always been carefree, bold and unrestrained, suddenly put on a charming look, which was somewhat funny.
Yu Hao shook his head and said: "If you kill my Dagan soldiers and invade my Dagan territory, even if I am not your consort, I will not submit to you!"
"Then you're not afraid that I'll kill you?" Alina's face suddenly turned cold.
"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of others pointing their fingers behind my back and scolding me. Although I, Yu Hao, am not talented, I will never betray my country and seek glory!" Yu Hao said firmly.
"You are much more courageous than the third prince you fucked."
A hint of admiration flashed in Alina's eyes, and she secretly sighed that it would be great if Yu Hao were a barbarian.
"I wonder if my consort dares to go to the watchtower with me to see the majesty of my barbarian army?"
"Why don't you dare?"
Yu Hao's eyes moved slightly. If he could figure out the location of each tribe in the barbarian army, after returning, Yu Hao could lead his bodyguards to sneak attack on the barbarian camp again and delay their attack on the city.
Under the leadership of Alina, Yu Hao climbed to the watchtower in the center of the barbarian camp. From here, he could see the entire barbarian camp and even Shaheguan in the distance.
At this time, the entire barbarian camp was scorched black, and many barbarian soldiers were setting up new tents. It seemed that the last raid by the Korean soldiers had caused a lot of trouble to the barbarian army.
That raid did severely damage the barbarian camp. Not only was two-thirds of the entire camp burned down, but more than half of the cattle and sheep escaped from the camp.
Although Arilang later personally led people to capture cattle and sheep and recovered some of them, the originally abundant food stocks of the barbarian army became tense.
Then Yu Hao looked at the slave camp again. At this time, the rebellion in the slave camp had been suppressed, and there were very few slaves who survived, and they started working again.
The slaves who were killed in the riot were gathered together by the barbarian soldiers and burned uniformly.
"Many of those slaves were from your army. They rioted after you raided my camp, so I killed them all in a fit of rage!" Alina said with a smile.
"Although it is a pity, as long as I capture Shaheguan, there will be more slaves, and maybe you will become one of the slaves by then!"
After listening to Alina's words, Yu Hao was furious and said coldly: "People like you only bully the unarmed people. It's just an idiot's dream to break into Shaheguan!"
"Oh? Really? What do you think that is?"
Yu Hao looked in the direction Alina pointed, and the first thing he saw was hundreds of huge figures.
"Is this...an elephant?" Yu Hao's eyes widened.
I saw hundreds of elephants lined up neatly in the camp on the east side.
Each elephant is 5 to 6 meters long and 2.1 to 3.6 meters tall. It has thick limbs and a huge body. Its one-meter-long tusks are tilted upward, making it look powerful.
The barbarians who originally lacked iron ore now covered all of these elephants with iron armor, turning these giant beasts into mobile fortresses.
There are four barbarian soldiers sitting on the back of each elephant, two of whom are holding spears, and the other two are holding bows and arrows.
I have long heard that the barbarians in the south have armored elephant soldiers, but I didn't expect to see them with my own eyes today.
Moreover, Yu Hao was also surprised to find that in addition to elephants, there were many jackals, tigers and leopards around with their fangs exposed and drooling.
These ferocious beasts in the forest in the past were now like docile puppies, sitting obediently on the ground, waiting for instructions from the barbarian soldiers.
At this moment, Yu Hao suddenly saw a dozen bodyguards on war horses outside the barbarian camp, shooting at the barbarian soldiers on the wall.
Obviously these escorts were sent by Korean soldiers to harass the barbarian camp.
Suddenly, the barbarian camp opened, and dozens of jackals, tigers and leopards rushed out of the camp and headed straight for the escorts.
Seeing these ferocious beasts with their huge mouths open, the bodyguard was frightened, and the horses under his crotches were even more frightened and ran away in all directions.
Several bodyguards were thrown off their frightened horses in panic, and were torn to pieces by the chasing beasts in the blink of an eye.
The war horses running around were quickly overtaken by the beasts, and together with the bodyguards on horseback, they became a meal for these beasts.
Only three of the dozen or so escorts managed to escape.
On the watchtower, Yu Hao's face was pale and solemn.
These ferocious beasts have a natural blood pressure on war horses. As long as these ferocious beasts charge, the war horses will be frightened, run away in all directions, and may not even obey their master's orders.
This also means that Yu Hao's highly mobile cavalry team will be reduced to a ragtag group, vulnerable to a single attack.
Moreover, once the war horse is frightened and does not obey the command of the bodyguard, it will be difficult for the bodyguard on horseback to aim.
In addition, these beasts are very fast and flexible, so it is really difficult to shoot them.
At this moment, Yu Hao finally understood why the barbarian army had been silent for so many days.
While Yu Hao was waiting for reinforcements, they were also waiting for reinforcements, but their reinforcements arrived one step ahead of Yu Hao's!
With the cavalry unable to play its role, it would be difficult for the Yunzhou Army to defend the Shahe Pass alone.
Moreover, with the presence of elephants, Yu Hao's tactic of having soldiers put on heavy armor to form a shield wall behind the city gate also failed. After all, no matter how strong a shield wall is, it is also made up of people. How can the power of humans be too great?
Like?
If the barbarian army launches an attack at this time, Shaheguan will be defeated instantly.
Seeing Yu Hao's pale face, Alina suddenly showed a proud smile. This was the first time in such a long time that she was better than Hao, and Alina was naturally very happy.
"The bodyguards have always been the most elite troops of the Prince Consort. Now this unit is completely vulnerable to the king's beast army. The kiting tactics that the Prince Consort is most proud of will also lose their effectiveness. It won't be long before Shaheguan will be my king's.
It’s over!”
Although Yu Hao was worried, at this time, he could not lose his momentum!
