Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest

Chapter 34 Marching South

In the endless dark night, the soft gauze covers the sleeping wilderness, the fireflies flicker, and the light of the moon and stars complement each other, just like the Milky Way lying in the sky with fine quicksand.

Under the dome, on the bank of the Valanna River, the earth was trembling, and the long and winding jumping fire accompanied by the sound of unrestrained horse hooves swept over the mountains and seas.

The Dothraki cavalry marching in the vast wilderness obviously had no intention of covering their tracks. People shouted and horses neighed, one after another, and they formed a whole. They surged in from all directions like an unstoppable wave, advancing rapidly, roaring and galloping. , resounding through the night sky.

Mengge rode his fiery red horse and rushed to the river first. He reined in the horse. He had no time to explore the situation of the Valanna River. He immediately turned around and sat on the horse and tried to look to the rear. There was chaos there.

He hurriedly rode towards the rear, and was relieved when he saw that most of the tribe's old, weak, women and children were also closely following the team.

Now that the situation was urgent, he continued to gallop forward, shouting loudly:

"Ofer, ofer."

"I'm here." The steward's voice came from behind the carriage arriving not far away: "Everyone is okay, no one is behind."

After hearing this, Meng Ge's anxious heart completely relaxed.

In order to avoid being pursued by the enemy's probing troops, he asked the tribe to discard most of their baggage. Except for the tribesmen who could only ride in carriages, most of the Dothraki distributed weapons and horses to march with the tribe. They lacked the combat experience of rapid marching, and in the night It’s easy to get lost and fall behind the pack.

At this time, Bass Potter also came over on horseback, staring at the group of carriages following the team, his eyes full of appreciation.

Meng Ge, who was accustomed to life and death and had no regard for life, did not send many people to protect non-combatants, and the bachelor did not have the knowledge to command an army in combat.

Fortunately, Affairs Officer Ofer took the initiative to protect the rear area, so that the safety of most people could be ensured.

Seeing the followers catching up, Meng Ge's heart that had just relaxed became high again. He said nothing and looked heavy.

The battle plan to divide the troops at the source of the Valanna River is a countermeasure that has been thought out. No changes have occurred yet, and the plan must continue to be implemented.

He waved the riding crop tightly in his hand to say goodbye, and at the same time said to Ofer and others:

"The enemy is likely to abandon his troops and only lead the cavalry in a quick pursuit. Your team is huge, bloated and fragile. It is difficult to avoid and resist the enemy on the way. Time is tight. We must continue to march towards the swamp without stopping. Rely on us from Qohor Bring out the craftsmen and build fortifications there to hold on. Please remember that although the swamp can delay the enemy's charge, it cannot be completely relied on, and you must not take the initiative to attack. You also need to be careful about the Volantis behind you. "

Speaking of these arrangements, Mengge still tried hard to think about the omissions in his mind, but no one is perfect and nothing is absolute. This is all he can think of now. The rest can only rely on the wisdom and judgment of everyone.

"We will keep your instructions in mind, march immediately, and wait for help." The bachelor already had a clear understanding of the situation, and said solemnly and solemnly.

Ofer nodded in agreement, then looked up at the sky, and said anxiously: "We don't have time to delay, we must act immediately, otherwise we will have to rush to the swamp after sunset and build defensive camps in the dark. , the conditions will be very unfavorable to us.”

Seeing that both of them were so calm and decisive, Mengge didn't waste any more time. With a smile on his face, he raised the riding crop in his hand and poked Ofer and Bass Potter's shoulders hard:

"We will surround and kill the enemy."

Immediately, Mongor rode off to reorganize his troops, preparing to go south and approach Volantis.

Silence bowed its head in the hustle and bustle, and the warriors' eyes met in the dark night.

The people who know you best are often your fellow enemies. The people who are most familiar with the fighting skills of the Dothraki tribe are another Dothraki tribe.

Silently scouting the battlefield, a group of reconnaissance cavalry quietly hid in the depths of the jungle. Their horses were trained as calm as rocks, lying obediently and quietly on the ground.

The enemy probing cavalry holding torches had obviously discovered something and were slowly approaching them on guard.

"Nohat, we've been discovered."

As soon as the deep sound hit the ground, the clear sound of bowstrings immediately resounded in the silent jungle, and the arrows struck the opponent's fatal vitals like lightning, and half of the enemies fell off their horses.

The torch in the enemy's hand gave them guidance, and the Dothraki cavalry who could serve as scouts were without exception the tribe's marksmen.

Immediately, they quickly called up the war horses beside them and jumped up.

In groups of two, they rode horses in perfect coordination and rushed towards the assigned enemies. One person drew his bow and fired to provide cover, while the other drew his arakh and quickly approached.

Driven by the fear of the inexplicable attack, the enemy did not panic and fled in all directions.

Seeing that the ambush attackers were numerically superior, they decisively left behind some of the men behind them. The others turned around on horseback, preparing to quickly evacuate the jungle. The most important task of the scouting cavalry was to bring the message back to the tribe.

The Dothraki reconnaissance cavalry had a fast rate of fire and rich combat experience. Therefore, under the sneak attack of Nohat and others, the enemies were quickly wiped out, and no one slipped through the net.

At this time, the scouting cavalry did not relax their vigilance, but were anxious. This was not the first time they encountered the enemy. The situation was urgent and the news must be passed back as soon as possible.

"Everyone collects the supplies and horses. There is no need to hide the bodies or hide the traces. We are ready to move quickly towards the Valanna River."

Nohat rode his horse back and forth to direct the arrangements and remained vigilant at all times, while the others followed the orders meticulously.

After a while, he led the cavalry out of the jungle carefully. Then, everyone galloped on their horses and anxiously headed towards the Valanna River.

Now that they have decided not to hide their traces, the cavalry team, which has been suffering for a long time, gradually opens up to dialogue.

"Nohat, I heard that you were personally received by Khal Menggo. Is he as great and brave as the legend says?"

The Dothraki man named Nohat was the scouting cavalryman who had infiltrated the tribe of Horse King Drogo and successfully brought out information.

He looks very young, with a broad nose and thick eyebrows, a rectangular face with a fearlessness that is common among young people, and a pair of deep black eyes like calm and deep lake water. , what is unusual is the pair of surprisingly huge ears, which are placed next to the face, like two open clam shells with pearls hidden inside.

Nohat has always been taciturn, which is related to his long-term role as a scouting cavalry. In fact, he is not taciturn, nor cold and lonely, and is one of the few Dothraki people with a gentle temperament.

At this time, he did not answer the questions of others, but held the horse's belly tightly and rushed to the front, with a solemn and thoughtful expression.

I don't know how to be a eunuch. I have been compiling the outline for the past two days. In fact, it has a lot to do with the author's lack of writing skills and inexperience. I will continue to work hard.
