Little Priest's Cat Diary
Chapter 145
In the depths of the royal city, a construction site that had just been established was closely guarded by the army of the sea people, and no one was allowed to enter or leave easily.
There are people coming and going in this construction site, and it is extremely lively.
Winter has just passed, and the weather is still a bit cold, but the construction site here is full of big red-burning stoves, which make the ground steaming hot.
The busy people in the construction site were almost shirtless, sweating profusely, and the rough skin on their faces became darker and darker due to the red light of the stove.
The hammer fell, and sparks flew everywhere.
The sound of jingling and knocking came one after another, endlessly.
Some people moved freely, but some still had handcuffs and anklets on their hands and feet, and the iron chains made the sound of mopping the floor when they walked.
A young man dressed as a laborer walked inside, carrying a heavy box, with an honest and honest look on his face.
Even when the boxes were put down at the unloading place, his back was always bent, and his eyebrows were lowered.
After unloading the goods, he turned around and wanted to leave, but was suddenly stopped by a supervisor.
The supervisor looked at him a few times and asked, "You are new? When did you come? Why haven't I seen you before?"
A cold look flashed across the man's downcast eyes, and his eyes flickered quickly, thinking about the way to get out.
But before he could speak, an old voice came from the side.
"He was sent to me yesterday, and he is responsible for helping me."
The supervisor glanced at the old craftsman who came out of the next room, said nothing, and turned to urge the others.
The old craftsman walked up to the young laborer and reprimanded impatiently: "Why are you being lazy, why don't you come with me!"
After speaking, he turned around and went straight into the dark room.
The man was still standing there, he raised his head.
When his slightly slender eyes were lifted up, it was obviously a dark and simple face, but those fox-like eyes set off a bit of seductive charm, giving people a feeling that these eyes and this face Out of place awkward feeling.
It was just a moment, and the man quickly lowered his head again, returning to his previous honest and down-to-earth appearance.
After a little thought, he made a decision, and walked quickly into the old craftsman's house.

........................
Kingdom of Portoyas.
Since King David succeeded to the throne, he changed the weak appearance of the royal family, wiped out all the separatist forces in various places, and strengthened the royal power.
At the same time, he implemented various national policies by means of force, reformed government affairs and the military, and made Portoyas grow stronger and stronger.
Seeing that the national power of Portoyas is booming, it is about to enter the ranks of powerful countries.
However, the sky is unpredictable.
First, a volcano erupted, burying a bustling city.
Then earthquakes and tsunamis hit one after another, causing a large area of the eastern coastal area of Portoyas to be affected, and the navy stationed by the sea also suffered heavy losses.
Immediately afterwards, the sea people who crossed the ocean and suddenly appeared on the east coast gave Portoyas the final heavy blow.
This powerful, savage and cruel nation went all the way south along the coastline, breaking through and slaughtering several coastal cities in Portoyas one after another.
Nearly 5 people died at their hands.
And the next series of changes in Portoyas is even more shocking.
King David died in battle.
The royal city fell.
The Dauphin was captured and later died.
The high priest was murdered.
Portoyas suffered an extremely heavy blow, and the morale of the entire land declined.
And the sea nation was still not satisfied after occupying the royal city.
They are like insatiable sharks, eager to devour their prey completely.
Less than a month after occupying the royal city, the sea people's army couldn't wait to set off again, marching towards the interior of Podoyas.
The morale of Portoyas is declining.
And the sea people are like a rainbow.
They attacked the city and plundered land all the way, defeated the various armies of Podoyas one after another, and defeated the people of Podoyas steadily.
The people of Portoias grew more and more dismayed.
In the beginning, the warships of the Sea People accompanied the battle.
The Fadagaro River is extremely wide and has plenty of water, and their warships can travel upstream along the Fadagaro River.
But as the Fadagaro River turned a corner and turned to the coast at the upper right corner, the battleship could no longer fight with it.
So, the battleship stopped, and the soldiers continued to fight upwards.
After defeating the Portoyas army several times again, the people of the sea became more contemptuous and despised the fighting power of the Portoyas people.
They gradually became proud.
When they sacked cities and plundered land, some cities even ran away without waiting for them to come over.
They gradually felt that although the Portoyas were numerous, they were extremely weak.
They began to arrogantly declare that as long as ten thousand brave warriors could defeat an army of Portoyas ten times their size.
However, in just over a month, they had already reached the middle of the Portoyas Kingdom—Pangwei City, which was once prosperous but buried in the volcano.
The battle went smoothly.
All the people at sea were in high spirits.
They think that if they continue to win like this, they will soon be able to reach the city of Schulte in the north, deal with the last prince of the Portoyas royal family, completely destroy the Portoyas kingdom, and make this continent their property!
However, the Sea People, who were complacent and thought that Portoyas was already in their pocket, did not realize that their army was getting farther and farther away from the Fadagaro River, where their warships were stationed.
While the victories one after another made their emotions high, they also went deep into the inland unknowingly.
And their supply lines are getting longer and longer.
…………
It's springtime, and the air is filled with the freshness of new shoots.
Green grass is all over the ground, looking around, a piece of green symbolizes life, wearing a vibrant breath.
A long procession is marching across the land.
Rough carriages were driving ahead, followed by a large number of carts.
Whether it is a carriage or a cart, there are countless sacks piled on it.
The sack was bulging, filled to the brim, and weighed heavily on the car.
With iron chains tied to his wrists, the ragged slaves arched their backs, bent over, and tried their best to pull the heavy cart behind them forward little by little.
They have no time to rest except at night.
The soldiers of the sea people on the side have been supervising these slaves, and they are not allowed to be lazy.
Once the movement slowed down, a long whip lashed heavily on their backs, drawing a deep bloodstain on their bodies.
Along the way, their bodies were already covered in cuts and bruises.
This is a team that transports food and grass.
These military supplies were unloaded from the ships stationed in the Fadagaro River and were sent to the army that was fighting ahead.
Hundreds of Sea People's fighters were responsible for escorting the food.
In the past half a month, they have escorted supplies to the front line countless times, and they are already familiar with this task.
Except for the soldiers who were in charge of yelling and urging the slaves to speed up, the soldiers guarding both sides of the food looked very relaxed, and even chatted with each other while walking forward.
They were proudly talking about how their Shah had defeated Portoyas' army many times and captured many cities in just over half a month since his army set off from the royal city.
They were discussing enthusiastically how long it would take for them to reach the city of Schulte and kill that prince.
The warriors of the Sea People were talking happily.
Sudden--
Hey.
Da da da.
There was a rush of hoofbeats coming from afar.
With a buzzing sound, under the bright sunlight, a sharp arrow pierced through the air.
Draw a cold light in the air.
A seaman warrior who was whipping a slave who accidentally stumbled and fell fell down.
His eyes widened, and a sharp arrow pierced his head.
The slave, who was gritting his teeth and preparing to be whipped, looked at the sea civilian soldier who had fallen to the ground in astonishment, and subconsciously looked up.
When he raised his eyes, his heart beat violently.
On the distant land, a blue flag was raised high in the sun.
It flapped in the air like the endless undulating waves of the ocean.
The flag that symbolizes the glory of Portoyas.
was lifted high.
Standing between heaven and earth.
Staring blankly at the flag, the originally dim eyes of the slave who fell to the ground suddenly lit up.
His ashen face seemed to be full of life again at this moment, he opened his mouth excitedly, but couldn't speak.
Accompanied by the blue flag from far and near, accompanied by the sound of galloping horseshoes getting closer.
The attacking cavalry had clearly appeared in everyone's field of vision.
The leader was a slender young general.
She couldn't see her face clearly from afar, only her pale golden hair shining in the sun.
He held a white bow in his right hand, the body of the bow shone like white jade, the arrow that shot through the heads of the Sea People just now probably came from his hand.
This group of cavalry rushed forward at a high speed.
The sea civilian soldiers have experienced countless wars since they were young, so after a little panic at the beginning, they quickly reacted, lined up, drew their weapons, and prepared to fight.
They are full of fighting spirit, just waiting for the enemy to rush over, they will go up without fear, tearing the enemy's armor with the sharp dagger in their hands.
However, from a long distance away, the cavalry drew out the spears hanging on the side of the horses one after another, and threw them at them violently.
Countless spears arced across the air.
Fall from the sky.
It penetrated their bodies and nailed them to the grass.
This is just the first wave.
Before they could react, the second wavelength spear was thrown again.
Taking advantage of the inertia of the galloping horses, the spears thrown by the cavalry were stronger and fiercer, and the distance across the ground was longer.
The roaring spears pierced the bodies of the sea folk warriors fiercely, or knocked over the shields on their arms.
However, this is not the end.
After the second wave of spears passed, the rain of arrows struck.
They rushed towards the enemy furiously under the rain of arrows, but suddenly the large group of cavalry turned their horses around and, led by their leader, turned to the other side.
As infantry, they couldn't catch up, and they didn't dare to chase after the food and supplies that needed their protection.
However, when they returned to the grain carriage in resentment, the group of cavalry who turned around and ran away ran back again after making a big circle.
humming sound.
Someone else fell to the ground.
Immediately after this arrow, there was another wave of overwhelming arrow rain, which shot many sea civilian soldiers to the ground.
After shooting this wave, the cavalry did not wait for the sea civilian soldiers to rush up, and turned again.
ran away.
Not long after, da da da, under the furious eyes of the sea militia soldiers, the cavalry turned around and came back again.
The sea civilian soldiers who ushered in another wave of arrow rain only felt extremely aggrieved.
They have great power.
The iron shields in their hands can block all the sharp blades of the enemy.
The sharp iron swords in their hands can cut off all enemy weapons.
But they can't use their strength now, because they can't hit the enemy at all, and their weapons can only be waved towards the air.
More and more soldiers fell under the sharp arrows.
Especially the pale blond cavalry commander, every arrow shot from his hand pierced through a soldier's throat exactly.
Repeatedly like this, more than half of the hundreds of sea civilian soldiers were grinded to death.
Finally, the cavalry leader with pale blond hair waved his hand.
The cavalry, led by the black-haired knight who had been closely following the blond-haired commander, charged fiercely, completely defeating this group of sea militiamen who were barely holding on.
In less than two hours, the battle was over.
The slaves guarding the grain and grass carts couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw the cavalry's victory.
Seeing the cavalrymen running towards them, they greeted them excitedly.
However, when they first saw the leading light-blond cavalry commander, several of the slaves were dumbfounded on the spot.
"Your Majesty?!"
Someone yelled out.
Most of the sea people's slaves were prisoners of war captured by them attacking other nations. Most of the slaves transporting food and grass were civilians or soldiers of Portoyas.
Among them, several generals saw this young priest who was said to have performed miracles on Sepul with their own eyes during the ceremony.
At this moment, they stared blankly at the appearance of the future high priest, who was supposed to be protected in the depths of the Sea God Temple and accepted the worship of everyone, galloping vigorously on the battlefield on horseback, with their mouths open, unable to recover for a long time .
The young Shaoji came up to them on horseback and smiled slightly.
"There are still countless battles to come."
The young man stared at them with blue eyes and said, "Do you want to come together?"
Everyone's pupils paused.
They looked at the flag fluttering behind the boy, and their eyes gradually ignited with light and flames.
Next, without Mia saying much, they acted quickly.
Find the key from the dead body of the sea civilian soldier and uncuff everyone.
Clean up the battlefield, take back the spears and arrows that can be used, and of course take away the sharp weapons of the Sea People.
Take away the horses that pull the carts as mounts.
Stack grain and grass sacks together and set fire to them.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the raging fire burned all the food, grass and vehicles.
Leaving behind the corpses of the sea folk soldiers, the Podoyas cavalry fled.
While the galloping horse was galloping, Mia turned her head and glanced to the north.
The wind lifted his pale golden forehead hair and brushed the corners of his eyes.
After one glance, he turned his head and continued on.
He will lead a group of cavalry behind him to continue to attack other teams transporting food and grass.
——Next, I will leave it to you.
Soon, everyone knew.
A Portoyas cavalry roamed the supply line, constantly attacking the Sea People's teams of food and grass.
The food transport teams sent to the front line one after another were ruthlessly swept away by this cavalry like an autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.
After being defeated in succession by several food transport teams, the sea people began to increase the army to escort food and grass.
But this is useless.
The purpose of that cavalry was not to fight the sea militiamen at all.
Under the leadership of their cunning leader, they always avoided confrontation with the sea folk warriors, and harassed the army escorting food and grass through detours, side attacks, and shooting and running tactics.
Or simply rush over in the middle of the night, and shoot rockets directly at the piled up grain and grass from a distance to burn the grain and grass.
The activity of this cavalry completely disrupted the supply line of the Sea People's Army.
…………
Battlefront.
The Sea People's army has entered the interior, and has even passed the city of Pangwei, which is said to be buried under the volcano.
In just over half a month, he knocked down the depths of Portoyas's abdomen and took down several cities in one go. It stands to reason that it was the time when the army was in full swing.
However, morale in the army is somewhat low now.
Because the supply line was cut off, food and grass materials could not be delivered for a long time, and the existing food and grass in the army were decreasing sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye.
They robbed a lot of property in the previous city, but they went to grab precious gold, silver and jewelry, and didn't notice that the food and grass were set on fire by the cowardly Portoyas who abandoned the city.
By the time they rushed over to put out the fire, the entire granary had been burnt clean.
For this reason, the female Shah, who was already hot-tempered, became even more irritable.
Several guards around her were whipped by her for a trivial matter.
But the food and grass will not appear out of thin air because of her anger. In the current situation, either she will lead the army to retreat south quickly and return to the bank of the Fadagaro River before the food and grass are exhausted.
Or, the army speeds up and goes northward, and before the food and grass are exhausted, they can capture the city in front of the army and get supplies from the city.
After thinking for a long time, the desire to fight and strong ambition finally defeated the others, and the female Shah led the army to the north quickly.
A day later, the army arrived in front of the city.
After a night's rest, the Sea People, who were about to run out of food, couldn't wait to attack the city.
The ferocity of the sea people's fighters can be said to be second to none on the mainland, and their weapons are even more sharp.
This not very strong city can't resist at all.
It was like a small fish surrounded by swarms of vicious sharks.
Weak, pitiful, and helpless.
After two days of fierce fighting, on the third day of the siege, the Sea People successfully captured the walls of Kadar City.
As long as they work harder, they will be able to break into the city and completely occupy the city!
Looking at the soldiers who had climbed the city wall from a distance, a smile appeared on the female Shah's face.
She turned around, waved her hand, and shouted loudly.
Now, it's time to lead her elite troops to join Occupy and end this war completely!
However, before she could give an order, someone rushed over suddenly.
"Shah! The Podoyas army has been spotted on the right and is attacking us!"
The female Shah frowned.
Is it the reinforcements coming to rescue Kadar City?
Glancing at the increasingly fierce fighting on the city wall, she decisively dispatched part of the army to the right to meet the Podoyas army.
The rest still join her in the siege battle, no matter what, she will take the city in one fell swoop!
But just as she was about to wave her hand to order an attack, someone rushed over and interrupted her.
"Podoyas' army was also found on the upper left side!"
Before the person could finish speaking, a guard next to him suddenly shouted.
"Shah! Something is wrong on the wall!"
The female Shah suddenly looked up.
A large number of Portoyas warriors suddenly emerged from the walls of Kadar City, which was already in jeopardy and was about to be defeated by sea militiamen.
Her chest tightened, and a bad premonition suddenly emerged in her heart at this moment.
Is it—
…………
On the right side of Kadar City is a mountain peak.
On the high mountain, a cavalry regiment in white armor was standing neatly on the mountainside.
The bright armor on their bodies reflected the cold light in the sun.
They stood still on the spot on horseback, with a cold air, thousands of people, but they never made a sound.
They stood there like stone statues.
Just standing there quietly, there is an invisible fierce air emanating from the whole body of this cavalry legion.
Just looking at it makes people shudder.
A tall and tall young man stood at the front on a horse.
When the wind blows, the lock of long golden hair behind him flies high in the air.
The sunlight falling from the sky reflected a dazzling golden luster on it.
Fragments of golden forehead hair scattered on the black metal mask.
The young crown prince had an amazingly handsome face even if it was partially covered by a mask.
Looking down at the sea people's army at the foot of the mountain with his strange eyes, he smiled softly.
After laughing, he turned his head and looked south.
Thanks for your hard work.
From the bottom of his heart, he said to the boy in the south at the moment.
——Then, leave it to me.
Turning around, his eyes were already full of chills.
In the silence, Sardis raised his hand.
The moment when his hand fell and pointed forward.
There was a loud bang on the ground.
Thousands of horses galloping.
Coming down from the mountains.
Countless horseshoes stepped on the ground, making the whole mountain vibrate.
This ferocious cavalry is like a sharp spear. They rushed down from the mountain, and in just an instant, they ruthlessly penetrated the sea people's army!
…………
........................
The Haimin army set out from the royal city and attacked Portoyas in the north, besieging the city and looting land along the way, causing panic among the people of Portoyas.
At this time, Prince Sardis of Portoyas secretly left the city of Schulte and led his army to the south.
He secretly ordered that when the Portoyas army fought with the sea people, they would pretend to be defeated as soon as they touched.
In order to weaken the vigilance of the opponent.
Lure the enemy deep.
When the sea people's army went deep into the inland, he suddenly exerted his strength.
First cut off its food and grass from the rear.
When the sea people attacked the city of Kadar in order to seize food and grass, they ordered the troops who had already ambushed nearby to besiege from both sides.
The Sea People were defeated.
For the first time the mighty Sea People fell to the Portoyas.
The first time, it was extremely tragic.
After the defeat, the sea people fled south in embarrassment.
Finally, they withdrew to the south south of the Fadagaro River, and with their powerful ships finally stabilized the declining situation.
But after this tragic lesson, they never dared to easily cross the Fadagaro River and invade the inland area north of Portoyas.
The most shocking thing in this battle was that the young priest who was about to become the high priest actually participated in this battle as a priest and galloped across the battlefield.
After all, this is probably the first high priest in the history of Portoyas... no, it should be said that he is the first high priest to participate in a war on the battlefield in the history of the entire continent.
The young priest even personally led the cavalry to go around to the rear of the sea militia army, cut off the enemy's supply line, and made great achievements in this battle.
Everyone was amazed by this, and there were many discussions.
There are those who praise, those who are surprised, and those who disagree.
But no matter what, the reputation of this maverick future high priest resounded throughout the continent together with Crown Prince Sardis after this war.
…………
After receiving the news that Sardis had successfully defeated the Sea People and that the enemy army was routing to the south, Mia planned to lead his army to retreat.
Go around a big circle to avoid the army of the Sea People retreating south, and go north to join Sardis.
However, just as he was about to set off, he received news that an army of Sea People had been found hunting someone.
And the hunting army came all the way from Wangcheng to here.
Out of curiosity, and adhering to the idea that I am happy to add trouble to the enemy, Mia led the cavalry in a circle to rescue the person who was hunted down by the enemy.
It's just that what Mia didn't expect was that he saved an acquaintance in such a convenient way.
"So you went to Wangcheng a while ago?"
More than a month ago, the Thousand-Faced Thief disappeared from Schulte City again, and he didn't know where he went.
Because Xidir has been disappearing all year round, it is difficult to find traces, so Mia didn't pay much attention at that time.
Unexpectedly, this man actually ran into the royal city occupied by the invaders.
Mia asked puzzledly, "What are you doing in such a dangerous place?"
"Stealing people."
Mia: "...Huh?"
Not noticing Mia's subtle gaze, Sidir raised his eyebrows, his fox eyes raised slightly, and there was a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
"As I said, there is no treasure in this world that I, the Thief with Thousand Faces, cannot steal."
As he spoke, he pulled someone out from the side.
It was a little old man.
The bearded and wrinkled face looked extremely rough, and the slightly cloudy eyes were weather-beaten.
The old man stood shyly, very cautiously.
Hidir bent his eyes and said with a smile: "I stole this from the king's city, a craftsman who has been helping the people of the sea to forge iron for more than ten years."
Mia: "!!!"
He grabbed Shidir's hand excitedly.
"You steal people so well!"
Sidir: "..."
Why does it make him feel strange and not happy when it is obviously a compliment?
There are people coming and going in this construction site, and it is extremely lively.
Winter has just passed, and the weather is still a bit cold, but the construction site here is full of big red-burning stoves, which make the ground steaming hot.
The busy people in the construction site were almost shirtless, sweating profusely, and the rough skin on their faces became darker and darker due to the red light of the stove.
The hammer fell, and sparks flew everywhere.
The sound of jingling and knocking came one after another, endlessly.
Some people moved freely, but some still had handcuffs and anklets on their hands and feet, and the iron chains made the sound of mopping the floor when they walked.
A young man dressed as a laborer walked inside, carrying a heavy box, with an honest and honest look on his face.
Even when the boxes were put down at the unloading place, his back was always bent, and his eyebrows were lowered.
After unloading the goods, he turned around and wanted to leave, but was suddenly stopped by a supervisor.
The supervisor looked at him a few times and asked, "You are new? When did you come? Why haven't I seen you before?"
A cold look flashed across the man's downcast eyes, and his eyes flickered quickly, thinking about the way to get out.
But before he could speak, an old voice came from the side.
"He was sent to me yesterday, and he is responsible for helping me."
The supervisor glanced at the old craftsman who came out of the next room, said nothing, and turned to urge the others.
The old craftsman walked up to the young laborer and reprimanded impatiently: "Why are you being lazy, why don't you come with me!"
After speaking, he turned around and went straight into the dark room.
The man was still standing there, he raised his head.
When his slightly slender eyes were lifted up, it was obviously a dark and simple face, but those fox-like eyes set off a bit of seductive charm, giving people a feeling that these eyes and this face Out of place awkward feeling.
It was just a moment, and the man quickly lowered his head again, returning to his previous honest and down-to-earth appearance.
After a little thought, he made a decision, and walked quickly into the old craftsman's house.

All the people at sea were in high spirits.

However, from a long distance away, the cavalry drew out the spears hanging on the side of the horses one after another, and threw them at them violently.
Countless spears arced across the air.
Fall from the sky.
It penetrated their bodies and nailed them to the grass.
This is just the first wave.
Before they could react, the second wavelength spear was thrown again.
Taking advantage of the inertia of the galloping horses, the spears thrown by the cavalry were stronger and fiercer, and the distance across the ground was longer.
The roaring spears pierced the bodies of the sea folk warriors fiercely, or knocked over the shields on their arms.
However, this is not the end.
After the second wave of spears passed, the rain of arrows struck.
They rushed towards the enemy furiously under the rain of arrows, but suddenly the large group of cavalry turned their horses around and, led by their leader, turned to the other side.
As infantry, they couldn't catch up, and they didn't dare to chase after the food and supplies that needed their protection.
However, when they returned to the grain carriage in resentment, the group of cavalry who turned around and ran away ran back again after making a big circle.
humming sound.
Someone else fell to the ground.
Immediately after this arrow, there was another wave of overwhelming arrow rain, which shot many sea civilian soldiers to the ground.
After shooting this wave, the cavalry did not wait for the sea civilian soldiers to rush up, and turned again.
ran away.
Not long after, da da da, under the furious eyes of the sea militia soldiers, the cavalry turned around and came back again.
The sea civilian soldiers who ushered in another wave of arrow rain only felt extremely aggrieved.
They have great power.
The iron shields in their hands can block all the sharp blades of the enemy.
The sharp iron swords in their hands can cut off all enemy weapons.
But they can't use their strength now, because they can't hit the enemy at all, and their weapons can only be waved towards the air.
More and more soldiers fell under the sharp arrows.
Especially the pale blond cavalry commander, every arrow shot from his hand pierced through a soldier's throat exactly.
Repeatedly like this, more than half of the hundreds of sea civilian soldiers were grinded to death.
Finally, the cavalry leader with pale blond hair waved his hand.
The cavalry, led by the black-haired knight who had been closely following the blond-haired commander, charged fiercely, completely defeating this group of sea militiamen who were barely holding on.
In less than two hours, the battle was over.
The slaves guarding the grain and grass carts couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw the cavalry's victory.
Seeing the cavalrymen running towards them, they greeted them excitedly.
However, when they first saw the leading light-blond cavalry commander, several of the slaves were dumbfounded on the spot.
"Your Majesty?!"
Someone yelled out.
Most of the sea people's slaves were prisoners of war captured by them attacking other nations. Most of the slaves transporting food and grass were civilians or soldiers of Portoyas.
Among them, several generals saw this young priest who was said to have performed miracles on Sepul with their own eyes during the ceremony.
At this moment, they stared blankly at the appearance of the future high priest, who was supposed to be protected in the depths of the Sea God Temple and accepted the worship of everyone, galloping vigorously on the battlefield on horseback, with their mouths open, unable to recover for a long time .
The young Shaoji came up to them on horseback and smiled slightly.
"There are still countless battles to come."
The young man stared at them with blue eyes and said, "Do you want to come together?"
Everyone's pupils paused.
They looked at the flag fluttering behind the boy, and their eyes gradually ignited with light and flames.
Next, without Mia saying much, they acted quickly.
Find the key from the dead body of the sea civilian soldier and uncuff everyone.
Clean up the battlefield, take back the spears and arrows that can be used, and of course take away the sharp weapons of the Sea People.
Take away the horses that pull the carts as mounts.
Stack grain and grass sacks together and set fire to them.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the raging fire burned all the food, grass and vehicles.
Leaving behind the corpses of the sea folk soldiers, the Podoyas cavalry fled.
While the galloping horse was galloping, Mia turned her head and glanced to the north.
The wind lifted his pale golden forehead hair and brushed the corners of his eyes.
After one glance, he turned his head and continued on.
He will lead a group of cavalry behind him to continue to attack other teams transporting food and grass.
——Next, I will leave it to you.
Soon, everyone knew.
A Portoyas cavalry roamed the supply line, constantly attacking the Sea People's teams of food and grass.
The food transport teams sent to the front line one after another were ruthlessly swept away by this cavalry like an autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.
After being defeated in succession by several food transport teams, the sea people began to increase the army to escort food and grass.
But this is useless.
The purpose of that cavalry was not to fight the sea militiamen at all.
Under the leadership of their cunning leader, they always avoided confrontation with the sea folk warriors, and harassed the army escorting food and grass through detours, side attacks, and shooting and running tactics.
Or simply rush over in the middle of the night, and shoot rockets directly at the piled up grain and grass from a distance to burn the grain and grass.
The activity of this cavalry completely disrupted the supply line of the Sea People's Army.
…………
Battlefront.
The Sea People's army has entered the interior, and has even passed the city of Pangwei, which is said to be buried under the volcano.
In just over half a month, he knocked down the depths of Portoyas's abdomen and took down several cities in one go. It stands to reason that it was the time when the army was in full swing.
However, morale in the army is somewhat low now.
Because the supply line was cut off, food and grass materials could not be delivered for a long time, and the existing food and grass in the army were decreasing sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye.
They robbed a lot of property in the previous city, but they went to grab precious gold, silver and jewelry, and didn't notice that the food and grass were set on fire by the cowardly Portoyas who abandoned the city.
By the time they rushed over to put out the fire, the entire granary had been burnt clean.
For this reason, the female Shah, who was already hot-tempered, became even more irritable.
Several guards around her were whipped by her for a trivial matter.
But the food and grass will not appear out of thin air because of her anger. In the current situation, either she will lead the army to retreat south quickly and return to the bank of the Fadagaro River before the food and grass are exhausted.
Or, the army speeds up and goes northward, and before the food and grass are exhausted, they can capture the city in front of the army and get supplies from the city.
After thinking for a long time, the desire to fight and strong ambition finally defeated the others, and the female Shah led the army to the north quickly.
A day later, the army arrived in front of the city.
After a night's rest, the Sea People, who were about to run out of food, couldn't wait to attack the city.
The ferocity of the sea people's fighters can be said to be second to none on the mainland, and their weapons are even more sharp.
This not very strong city can't resist at all.
It was like a small fish surrounded by swarms of vicious sharks.
Weak, pitiful, and helpless.
After two days of fierce fighting, on the third day of the siege, the Sea People successfully captured the walls of Kadar City.
As long as they work harder, they will be able to break into the city and completely occupy the city!
Looking at the soldiers who had climbed the city wall from a distance, a smile appeared on the female Shah's face.
She turned around, waved her hand, and shouted loudly.
Now, it's time to lead her elite troops to join Occupy and end this war completely!
However, before she could give an order, someone rushed over suddenly.
"Shah! The Podoyas army has been spotted on the right and is attacking us!"
The female Shah frowned.
Is it the reinforcements coming to rescue Kadar City?
Glancing at the increasingly fierce fighting on the city wall, she decisively dispatched part of the army to the right to meet the Podoyas army.
The rest still join her in the siege battle, no matter what, she will take the city in one fell swoop!
But just as she was about to wave her hand to order an attack, someone rushed over and interrupted her.
"Podoyas' army was also found on the upper left side!"
Before the person could finish speaking, a guard next to him suddenly shouted.
"Shah! Something is wrong on the wall!"
The female Shah suddenly looked up.
A large number of Portoyas warriors suddenly emerged from the walls of Kadar City, which was already in jeopardy and was about to be defeated by sea militiamen.
Her chest tightened, and a bad premonition suddenly emerged in her heart at this moment.
Is it—
…………
On the right side of Kadar City is a mountain peak.
On the high mountain, a cavalry regiment in white armor was standing neatly on the mountainside.
The bright armor on their bodies reflected the cold light in the sun.
They stood still on the spot on horseback, with a cold air, thousands of people, but they never made a sound.
They stood there like stone statues.
Just standing there quietly, there is an invisible fierce air emanating from the whole body of this cavalry legion.
Just looking at it makes people shudder.
A tall and tall young man stood at the front on a horse.
When the wind blows, the lock of long golden hair behind him flies high in the air.
The sunlight falling from the sky reflected a dazzling golden luster on it.
Fragments of golden forehead hair scattered on the black metal mask.
The young crown prince had an amazingly handsome face even if it was partially covered by a mask.
Looking down at the sea people's army at the foot of the mountain with his strange eyes, he smiled softly.
After laughing, he turned his head and looked south.
Thanks for your hard work.
From the bottom of his heart, he said to the boy in the south at the moment.
——Then, leave it to me.
Turning around, his eyes were already full of chills.
In the silence, Sardis raised his hand.
The moment when his hand fell and pointed forward.
There was a loud bang on the ground.
Thousands of horses galloping.
Coming down from the mountains.
Countless horseshoes stepped on the ground, making the whole mountain vibrate.
This ferocious cavalry is like a sharp spear. They rushed down from the mountain, and in just an instant, they ruthlessly penetrated the sea people's army!
…………
........................
The Haimin army set out from the royal city and attacked Portoyas in the north, besieging the city and looting land along the way, causing panic among the people of Portoyas.
At this time, Prince Sardis of Portoyas secretly left the city of Schulte and led his army to the south.
He secretly ordered that when the Portoyas army fought with the sea people, they would pretend to be defeated as soon as they touched.
In order to weaken the vigilance of the opponent.
Lure the enemy deep.
When the sea people's army went deep into the inland, he suddenly exerted his strength.
First cut off its food and grass from the rear.
When the sea people attacked the city of Kadar in order to seize food and grass, they ordered the troops who had already ambushed nearby to besiege from both sides.
The Sea People were defeated.
For the first time the mighty Sea People fell to the Portoyas.
The first time, it was extremely tragic.
After the defeat, the sea people fled south in embarrassment.
Finally, they withdrew to the south south of the Fadagaro River, and with their powerful ships finally stabilized the declining situation.
But after this tragic lesson, they never dared to easily cross the Fadagaro River and invade the inland area north of Portoyas.
The most shocking thing in this battle was that the young priest who was about to become the high priest actually participated in this battle as a priest and galloped across the battlefield.
After all, this is probably the first high priest in the history of Portoyas... no, it should be said that he is the first high priest to participate in a war on the battlefield in the history of the entire continent.
The young priest even personally led the cavalry to go around to the rear of the sea militia army, cut off the enemy's supply line, and made great achievements in this battle.
Everyone was amazed by this, and there were many discussions.
There are those who praise, those who are surprised, and those who disagree.
But no matter what, the reputation of this maverick future high priest resounded throughout the continent together with Crown Prince Sardis after this war.
…………
After receiving the news that Sardis had successfully defeated the Sea People and that the enemy army was routing to the south, Mia planned to lead his army to retreat.
Go around a big circle to avoid the army of the Sea People retreating south, and go north to join Sardis.
However, just as he was about to set off, he received news that an army of Sea People had been found hunting someone.
And the hunting army came all the way from Wangcheng to here.
Out of curiosity, and adhering to the idea that I am happy to add trouble to the enemy, Mia led the cavalry in a circle to rescue the person who was hunted down by the enemy.
It's just that what Mia didn't expect was that he saved an acquaintance in such a convenient way.
"So you went to Wangcheng a while ago?"
More than a month ago, the Thousand-Faced Thief disappeared from Schulte City again, and he didn't know where he went.
Because Xidir has been disappearing all year round, it is difficult to find traces, so Mia didn't pay much attention at that time.
Unexpectedly, this man actually ran into the royal city occupied by the invaders.
Mia asked puzzledly, "What are you doing in such a dangerous place?"
"Stealing people."
Mia: "...Huh?"
Not noticing Mia's subtle gaze, Sidir raised his eyebrows, his fox eyes raised slightly, and there was a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
"As I said, there is no treasure in this world that I, the Thief with Thousand Faces, cannot steal."
As he spoke, he pulled someone out from the side.
It was a little old man.
The bearded and wrinkled face looked extremely rough, and the slightly cloudy eyes were weather-beaten.
The old man stood shyly, very cautiously.
Hidir bent his eyes and said with a smile: "I stole this from the king's city, a craftsman who has been helping the people of the sea to forge iron for more than ten years."
Mia: "!!!"
He grabbed Shidir's hand excitedly.
"You steal people so well!"
Sidir: "..."
Why does it make him feel strange and not happy when it is obviously a compliment?
