Chapter 299 Blizzard
Seeing that the tribe was ready, Zhao Hai also knew that the time to attack was coming soon, and he felt slightly excited. This was the first time he saw hundreds of thousands of people. How can you not be excited about the big battle?
Zhao Hai and the others were also preparing. They all knew that the day of revenge was not far away. While Zhao Hai and the others were busy in the tent, suddenly the tent curtain was lifted and Wells walked in. At the same time, a cold wind was also brought in. Although they were wearing thick clothes, Laura and the others could not help but shrink their necks.
When Wells saw Laura and the others, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Laura, you have to adapt to this temperature as soon as possible. You know, the coldest time on the grassland has not yet arrived. "
Laura's face turned pale and she shook her head and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to adapt. If it gets to the coldest time, I think I will freeze to death."
Wells couldn't help laughing, then turned to Zhao Hai and said: "Zhao Hai, follow me, the Supreme Elder wants to see you."
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect that , the Supreme Elder of the Hercules God Bull Clan actually wanted to see him. The Supreme Elder was a ninth-level powerhouse. Not just anyone could see a ninth-level powerhouse.
However, Zhao Hai reacted immediately, nodded and said: "Okay, let's leave quickly, don't keep the Supreme Elder waiting." Wells nodded and followed Zhao Hai out. go.
Although Zhao Hai's physical condition is not good, he is not afraid of the cold. This may be related to the northern part of China where he used to live. The northern part of China is also very cold in winter, and Zhao Hai has adapted to it. this temperature.
The two quickly arrived outside Wells' tent. Wells was not polite. He opened the door curtain and entered the tent, followed by Zhao Hai.
Mendes and Yale were both sitting in the tent, but both of them had lowered their eyebrows and looked like good children. At the same time, Zhao Hai also noticed a person in the tent.
There was an old man sitting in the tent, a plainly dressed old man. The old man was very tall and extremely majestic. He sat there like a mountain. Although he had his eyes closed, Zhao Hai It can be felt that every move in the tent cannot be hidden from him.
As soon as he entered the tent, Wells became cautious. He relaxed his pace, walked slowly to the old man, and said softly: "Elder, Zhao Hai is here."
Zhao Hai stepped forward, saluted the old man and said: "Zhao Hai has met the Supreme Elder."
The old man slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zhao Hai carefully, then smiled slightly and said: "Get up, young man, I also want to thank you. The medicine for my wounds ”
Zhao Hai said quickly: "You're welcome, elder. It's an honor for Zhao Hai to be able to help."
The old man smiled slightly at Zhao Hai and said: "You and Wells are brothers who swore a blood oath with their heads cut off, so then Even if you are a member of our Hercules Cow Clan, I will no longer be polite to you. Young man, please remember that since you are already a member of the Hercules Cow Clan, you must always remember that, The Hercules God Ox Tribe has its own pride, and this kind of pride would rather die than be discarded. In order to keep the battle flag of the Hercules God Ox Tribe from dust, you have to protect it with your own life. Can you do it?" br>
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment. He didn't know why the old man asked, but he still said seriously: "I can, I can do it."
Old The man nodded and turned to look at Wells. Wells bowed to the old man, walked to the side, picked up a battle flag that had been prepared long ago, put it in Zhao Hai's hands and said: "Zhao Hai , this battle flag is the Tauren King Flag, a battle flag that can only be used by the royal family of the Tauren Clan. Now, only the patriarchs and princes of our Hercules Ox Clan can use this flag. From now on From now on, you will be the prince of our Hercules God Bull Tribe.”
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment. He really didn’t expect that Wells and the others would find him today just to give him this royal flag. This king's flag not only means that he has been recognized by the Hercules Cow Clan, it also means that he has a clear identity here on the grassland, the Prince of the Hercules Clan.
At this special moment, this prince's flag also represents a kind of responsibility. The Hercules Cow Clan is about to counterattack. Giving this flag to Zhao Hai at this time represents the confidence that the Hercules Cow Clan will win. And absolute trust in Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai solemnly took over the battle flag, looked at Wells and said: "Brother, please rest assured, I will not embarrass the Hercules Cow Clan."
Photo by Wells Patted Zhao Hai on the shoulder and said: "Xiao Hai, I am I wanted to wait until we recaptured everything before giving this flag to you, but the Supreme Elder thought that would be too unfair to you. You have done so much for our Hercules God Ox Clan, it can be said that we can counterattack, all It's your credit, this The flag should be given to you before the war, so that all the people of the Hercules Bull Clan will remember your contribution, Xiao Hai, you must cherish this flag!"
Zhao Hai nodded seriously and said: "Brother, don't worry, I will take care of myself Cherish his as much as your own life." At this time, the elder Taishang said: "Okay, Xiaohai, just remember what you said. We will launch a counterattack after the first snow. You should be well prepared." The figure disappeared in a flash.
After deciding to counterattack, Wells immediately sent someone to deliver a message to the Mastiff tribe, and then they waited silently.
The weather on the grassland is changeable, but the orcs who have lived on the grassland for many years still have their own way of predicting the weather. On the day Zhao Hai took over the Hercules Ox Clan Prince Flag , Wells told Zhao Hai that an old man in the tribe predicted that the first snow on the grassland would come in ten days, and it would be a big snowstorm that had not been seen in ten years.
Zhao Hai didn’t know what the big blizzard that had not happened in ten years meant, but he also knew that it would bring a lot of trouble to their counterattack, but the good thing is that no one would have thought , some people would march and fight in that kind of weather.
Ten days is not a long time, but to the people who are waiting, these ten days are like ten years. For this war, the people of the Hercules Cow Clan bet After getting on with everything, all they had to do before setting off was to sharpen their axes and take care of their mounts. At the same time, Wells even issued a ban on alcohol and no one was allowed to drink.
If the orcs are not allowed to drink in the winter, it is almost equal to killing them, but this time no one objected, and everyone accepted the order calmly. If they are not allowed to drink, they can only exercise. When people feel cold, they come out of their tents and practice martial arts outside.
Zhao Hai also saw the orcs using beast soul skills for the first time. When they used the beast soul skills, a shadow of a monster would suddenly appear on their bodies, and then the shadow would slowly blend into the person's body. In the body, his strength will increase greatly, which makes Zhao Hai feel cold for a while. He feels like it is possessed by the soul, giving people a gloomy feeling.
To everyone's disappointment, ten days have passed, but although the sky is cloudy, not a single snowflake has fallen, which makes Wells and the others even more anxious.
But at this time, the old man who predicted the weather found Wells again. He told Wells that the weather had changed, and what they encountered this time was not something they had not seen in ten years. It's a big blizzard, but it's a big blizzard that hasn't happened in fifty years. It's better to gather the camp immediately, otherwise all the tents may be crushed by this blizzard.
Although the old man’s previous prediction was inaccurate, the clouds in the sky had already explained everything. Wells decided to believe the old man. He asked everyone to gather the tents together, then repaired the tents and built more Several tents were set up and everyone was asked to drive their mounts into the tents.
The old man's prediction was correct this time. While Wells and the others were reinforcing the tent, large swaths of snowflakes fell like knives, blown by the strong wind.
Fortunately, the people of the Hercules Shenniu Clan are known for their strength. They mobilized all their hands, braved the wind and snow, and finally completed the reinforcement of the tents. At the same time, they also gathered all the tents together, so that they could Keep warm.
Of course, Wells and Zhao Hai's tents are in the middle of the camp, so that they will not be directly destroyed by the cold wind. Now they are warmer than before.
When the blizzard really came, Zhao Hai and Laura knew what a severe blizzard that had not been seen in fifty years meant. This blizzard came so fiercely that for ten days, there was no one. Day and night, vigorously The people of the Shenniu tribe had to send people out to clear the snow on the tents again and again. Everyone who came out of the tents must tie a rope around their waist, otherwise they might be swept away by the storm. , the consequence can only be death.
Laura and the others looked at the busy orcs and suddenly sighed: "In the face of such wind and snow, manpower is really too weak."
Yes, in this situation In the face of the wind and snow, human power is really too weak. Even the Hercules, a tribe famous for its strength, has to bow its head to the power of nature. The power of nature is really great.
Ten days later, the sky finally cleared up and the sun came out. Although it was still very cold on the grassland, the frightening blizzard finally stopped, and the entire camp couldn't help but let out a cheer.
Laura and the others couldn't help but cheer. This was a battle between man and nature. Fortunately, man won in the end, but it was not without paying a price. When the final statistics were taken , one hundred and twenty-three people of the Hercules Bull Tribe were killed by ice in these snowstorms. Such losses are nothing to a large tribe of more than 500,000 people, but it still makes people feel very sad. .
Although the blizzard has stopped, Wells and the others still cannot attack immediately because their camp is surrounded by mines. In some places, the snow is even higher than the tent. They The snow had to be cleared away before we could set off.
But the people in the camp burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm, and the snow was quickly cleared. Although not all was cleared, it was enough to allow people to drive.
