Chapter 664 Dengos Bridge
The silver wolf traveled at lightning speed and soon left the sharpshooter group ten miles away. He lay on the wolf's back and entered into meditation, trying to recover his body as much as possible to have the strength to fight.
As for encountering the enemy, Silver Wolf was told not to pay attention to it and rush to Dengos Bridge at full speed.
War is the most arduous business. How can you rest at will? It is a military emergency. You have to fight for years and months, feel exhausted, and rely entirely on your willpower to support you. In fact, it is also a life experience.
The reason why soldiers have stronger wills than ordinary people is that they have experienced countless hardships and tests.
On the battlefield, the enemy will never give you a chance to breathe. When you are exhausted and want to lie down to rest, they will take your life without mercy.
Therefore, soldiers can only struggle on the brink of life and death and continue to fight the enemy. In this way, their will will become stronger and stronger, and their hearts will be as indestructible as steel.
On the other side, 30,000 reinforcements finally arrived at the pass and successfully joined forces with Commander Yakov. However, when they learned the sad news that 20,000 reinforcements had been killed, sadness surged in their hearts like a tide.
However, these reinforcements were not unprepared. They had already known the enemy's situation very well, so the 30,000 troops would set out from the pass as planned, head straight for the capital, and take on the task of attacking the city.
At this time, the Marshal had successfully gotten rid of part of the enemy's main force and turned around to pursue the remaining enemies, so there was no need for them to intervene at all.
Not only that, the third batch of reinforcements is also being prepared in full swing. In short, Pumasai is determined to destroy the Maya Alliance at all costs. Judging from the current situation, he will send at least 200,000 troops to support.
Faced with such a serious situation, Yakov acted decisively and led the surviving 1,200 elite soldiers to provide escort for logistical supplies to ensure the safety of logistics.
The 30,000 heavy cavalry rushed out of the pass like a tiger descending from the mountain, and marched towards the capital city of Maya in a mighty manner, preparing for the worst.
As the commander of Yakov's army, his 20,000 heavy cavalry were defeated. Now he was going to make up for his mistake by protecting his 30,000 logistics troops and preparing to set off, following the rear of the main army in an effort to gain some merit.
The defeat was not his responsibility, he was simply outnumbered. The king might not blame him, and there was no harm in being diligent, so he cheered up and led the surviving elite troops under his command to act as the vanguard and pave the way for the logistics troops.
Denggos Bridge
It took Kashin four hours to find the legendary bridge. He fell asleep on the wolf's back, and the silver wolf woke him up with a mental link.
Kashin took a look and summarized: "It is indeed magnificent. The land seems to have been torn apart by giants. There is no end to the depths below and the canyon is endless. This place is like the entrance to hell, splitting the continent in two..."
This historic bridge is 7 meters long and 18 meters wide. It consists of iron cables and is paved with precious wood as the bridge deck.
It is incredible that Kashin used the auxiliary function of the Supreme Pocket Watch to measure the Dengos Bridge. After careful analysis, it is impossible for a blacksmith other than a super master to do this…
The iron chain is 20 centimeters thick, 100 meters long, weighs more than 100,000 kilograms, and is formed in one piece. How can it be installed? This is a miracle. It is not ruled out that the people from the Magic Association helped. In short, it is a miracle.
Kashin was a blacksmith. When he saw a bridge made of such large iron chains, he was very happy to study it. If this method could be used to build bridges across the mountains, it would definitely improve transportation and benefit the country and the people.
The iron chain suspension bridge is a miracle of human engineering. At least Kashin doesn't understand the algorithm and knowledge of the canal. After thinking about it, he decided to ask the magician to see if there is any way to develop it academically...
After looking at the bridge, Kashen and Silver Wolf ran to the other end and began to destroy the wooden planks. They were all magical wood that would not rot for thousands of years and were fixed with iron chains.
Judging from the runes on it, it is fireproof and resistant to smashing. It is difficult to destroy it for the time being. The only way is to cut the arm-thick iron chain that fixes the wooden board. So Kashin took out the royal scout machete and said, "Let's try it! If you can't cut it, you can only fight to the death on the bridge. Alas, my body has been unable to recover. I hope the sharpshooters will arrive first."
Kashin took a deep breath, gathered all the fighting spirit in his body into his hands, and then poured it into the precious sword like a raging torrent. Under the infusion of fighting spirit, the precious sword instantly burst into a dazzling light, as if it had merged with Kashin.
He held the hilt tightly, exerted his strength and swung it, a sharp blade energy like lightning struck the iron chain that fixed the wooden board. With a crisp "crack", the iron chain broke, and the broken iron chain flew in the air, making a crisp sound of collision.
"The high-level knight's fighting spirit level, coupled with countless trainings of swinging the hammer, has given him such a strong chopping skill. Both are indispensable!" Kashin sighed as he looked at the broken chain. He knew very well how strong the chain was, and no one except him could easily cut it.
However, although Kashin successfully cut the chain, it also consumed a lot of his physical strength and fighting spirit. When he removed the sixth board, he suddenly felt weak all over, and even lifting the sword became extremely difficult.
"This iron chain is too hard, it takes too much effort to cut it." Kashin panted and complained in his heart. He originally thought that he could quickly remove these wooden boards with his own strength, but the reality made him feel a little overwhelmed.
After removing six wooden boards, a gap about three meters wide appeared in front of Kashin. Although this was far from enough to prevent the enemy from crossing the river, he had done his best.
When Kashin was taking a short break, he saw from afar the enemy's vanguard troops rushing towards the bridge. His heart sank and he sighed, "Alas, the enemy obviously knows the importance of this bridge, so they are rushing to defend it in such a hurry."
Kashin shook his head helplessly, then patted the silver wolf beside him and said, "Silver Wolf, get ready to fight..."
Although he was exhausted, Kashin still pulled himself together and dragged his heavy steps towards the enemy. He knew that this battle was inevitable and he had to go all out to defend the bridge.
After half an hour of bloody fighting, more than fifty members of the vanguard troops fell on the Dengos Bridge.
The surviving rhinos wailed and rushed towards Kashin collectively. Kashin commanded the silver wolves to cross the rhinoceros herd and go around to the rear. The rhinos were unable to turn around on the bridge and were stabbed one by one by Kashin through the anus without any effort.
The rhino corpses formed an obstacle, which made Kashin happy. As long as he killed more enemies on the bridge, the passage would naturally be blocked and they would not be able to pass at all.
The chains of the bridge were weighed down and creaked. A rhino weighs 3,000 kilograms, and 50 of them weigh about 150,000 to 180,000 kilograms. If there were too many casualties, the bridge would collapse sooner or later, so the enemy could not get across anyway.
At this moment, Kashin was resting behind the cow's carcass, saving some energy for fighting, just in case the enemy arrived early. Instead of wasting precious energy by cutting the chains when he had some strength left, he could only take one step at a time.
