Chapter 49 My magic steel plate armor is invincible!

This is the northernmost village in Crescent Moon Territory. Thanks to the governance of this place in the past few months, the villagers are relatively relaxed and no longer feel the sorrow they had before Rand established his rule over Crescent Moon Territory.

However, the population cannot be replenished in a short period of time, so there are still many vacant rooms, which are just right for the soldiers to live in.

It is early morning now, with a warm breeze. Autumn will come in a while, but it has been quite hot in the past few days.

Rand kicked the pebbles on the roadside. Since this place was far away from the administrative center, although they were arranged to build a gravel road, the implementation was not good and it could only be considered barely passable.

Rand planned to wait until the believers in the den were familiar with the doctrine and had a certain level of literacy and arithmetic skills, and then arrange them to serve as grassroots personnel.

Olenna followed closely behind Rand, her left hand on the sword guard, her right hand ready to draw the sword at any time to deal with danger. The cool morning breeze blew through her hair, causing it to fly slightly and then fall down under the action of gravity.

"Lord Rand," Olenna said.

Rand didn't turn around, but just replied: "What's wrong?"

"What will the future of the Feng Rang Sect look like?"

Although he didn't know why Olenna suddenly asked this question, Rand still explained: "As long as I can have enough food to eat. I hope that the land of the Plenty Goddess Sect can have a good harvest every year, and that those who believe in the goddess can rely on their own labor to have enough food to eat."

Ideals that are completely different from those of the nobles, perhaps this is the difference between religious leaders and feudal aristocratic leaders. Olenna has never been to the holy city of the Torch Church in the center of the continent. I wonder if the Pope and the Saint of the Torch Church think so.

Olenna didn't respond, and Rand didn't care, he just kept walking on the gravel road.

The breeze in the early morning is always pleasant, and the countryside scenery is something Rand rarely saw in his previous life, although he almost vomited from seeing it in this life.

As he walked, Rand stopped.

"Oleanna." Rand pointed ahead. "Is that an army in the distance?"

Olenna suddenly walked in front of Rand, and at such a short distance, it was as if she had teleported.

The top-level professionals already have the strongest combat power under the title of king, and it is certainly impossible for a mortal to achieve this.

Ordinary people would be easily crushed to death by an adult tauren, and if they were to arm wrestle, Shasa, an elite tauren, would definitely not be able to defeat Olenna, who looks like a weak woman.

The bodies of top professionals may no longer belong to the category of human beings. At least their vision is similar to that of Rand, a blessed man, or even stronger.

"Yes, Lord Rand, it seems that Baron Lake Source is more anxious than we thought." Olenna looked into the distance and responded.

The two men then immediately began their return journey to prepare to assemble the army.

Due to the underdeveloped economy and remote location, there is only one road from Huyuan Territory to Wanyue Territory.

Baron Huyuan certainly didn't realize that Rand had prepared a surprise for him in advance.

A simple infantry hole trap that is useful against both wild beasts and humans.

In fact, Rand also prepared a long rope tied with stones as a tripwire to deal with Baron Huyuan's cavalry.

When Baron Huyuan's army was about to reach the trap area, Rand assembled this "army" equipped with fine steel armor.

This army is equipped with the best armor, but has only the lowest level of training. At least for now, these newly recruited soldiers cannot even stand in line. To call them a mob is a compliment.

Soon the two sides were facing each other from a distance.

Baron Huyuan realized that his sneak attack plan had failed. Originally, he should have marched in the early morning and then headed straight to the administrative center of Crescent Moon Territory, which was the town where Talan was located, and completed all military operations before they could react.

Then they forced the people here to hand over all their property and food, and finally completed the task successfully.

But unexpectedly, they encountered resistance here, and their plan was shattered.

Baron Huyuan rode his horse to the front of the battle formation, looking down at the Crescent Moon soldiers who were barely forming a line in front of him. This time, as he wanted to show off his military power, he brought all his troops, including twelve knights, twenty-four knight squires, and two hundred half-time regular soldiers.

Faced with so many troops, Rand was actually a little panicked. On the surface, the gap in strength was quite large.

In fact, the gap in strength may be even greater.

Baron Huyuan felt relieved after a quick look. His army stepped forward, and these villagers who seemed to be temporarily recruited became a little panicked. He even saw a soldier whose legs were weak and he fell down.

With a sneer, he said loudly: "Hand over the things you agreed on now, and maybe you will have a good death."

Rand ignored him and remained silent.

Seeing that this group of mobs did not respond, Baron Huyuan sneered inwardly, drove his horse back to the formation, waved his whip, and ordered his soldiers to attack.

The soldiers were also disorganized, but at least they were not as easily panicked as Rand's recruits.

The knights in the front row led the charge with their knight squires.

Then they stepped into the trap and everyone fell to the ground.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Rand immediately ordered: "Ready, fire!"

Rand took an unconventional approach with this batch of new recruits. All fifty of them were slingers and had no ability to engage in direct combat.

But here it happens that there is only one road from Huyuanling to Wanyueling, and the surrounding terrain is very steep.

Rand arrived here ahead of time and didn't just dig some traps, he dug up the entire road.

Some of the cavalrymen who had not fallen into the trap rode their horses around it, then continued charging forward despite the pelting of stones.

Then he fell into a deep pit.

Only then did they realize that the reason this group of rabble dared to stand here was that they had dug up the entire road. The deepest part of the pit was estimated to be six or seven meters. If they fell in, they would definitely not be able to climb out.

Then this group of slingers in bright armor stood here, and the baron's limited force was really unable to rush over.

But the baron still did not give up. He arranged the archers from the regular soldiers to suppress this group of ungrateful people.

Rand sneered. If you really asked him to charge the cavalry, his mob would surely scatter at the first charge. But you shoot arrows, and you treat the magic steel armor as if it were just for show! "Prepare for throwing stones!"

Facing the archers' aim, Rand nonchalantly ordered the slingers to prepare, intending to shoot back at the archers.

The group of new recruits were very panicked when they saw the bright arrows pointed at them, and many of them performed poorly and hit their teammates.

But after all, these soldiers in the hideout had enough trust in Rand, at least none of them turned around and ran away.

"Fire!" Rand and Baron Huyuan shouted at the same time.

Stones and arrows flew through the air.

However, the scene was completely different from what Baron Huyuan had expected. The slingshots knocked down a group of archers, but the bows and arrows seemed to have no effect on these slingers.

This is completely unbelievable. Where did this group of people get such exaggerated armor?
