Medieval Empire Soldier - Chapter 193

“According to the marching schedule, we only have less than two days to go to the gathering place of the Red Venom Tribe. It is impossible for the spider nest group raised by the forest goblins to stay in the old nest safely. There was indeed not much resistance along the way.” Feng -Tugenheim pointed to the place where the dragons rested on the sheepskin map, “It looks like it is, the forest goblins should have moved their lair to another place, otherwise there would be no possibility that their spider riders would not be around here.”

what’s going on?

When did the forest goblins have the habit of migration? Or did they already know the movements of the human army and moved ahead?

Lairn and Tugenheim both felt a little confused. During the war, the enemy suddenly disappeared without a trace.

In the original plan, the coalition forces first defeated the Red Venom tribe in the place where the dragon slept, and then turned around and headed to the southwest to retake Duncanwald Castle, but now the next step is to be discussed.

“My baron, will the coalition continue to march towards the intended target?” the baron’s flag officer asked. Adrian knew the reason for marching cautiously, but he firmly believed that the coalition under the leadership of Baron Draco would win as scheduled. And to.

The coalition army composed of humans, dwarves, and wood elves was in full swing. The soldiers had high morale and complete supplies. It was just right to take down the sleeping place of the giant dragon and destroy the forest goblin tribe.

Lyren frowned and was silent, thinking about more possibilities.

Waiting in place?

It is necessary to camp and rest, the coalition needs supplies, and the wounds need time to heal, but will they fall into a trap and be surrounded by goblin waves unknowingly?

After all, the black forest is a gathering place for evil creatures. The wood elves living deep in the magic forest cannot guarantee victory in every hunt, and the endless black forest will always hold malice to outsiders, and slowly Reveal its cruel side.

Temporarily retreat?

The coalition forces that have been preparing for nearly half a year, this crusade is to recover Duncanwald Castle, which is located 40 kilometers north of the Baron, and the location of the fallen castle in the lost province is very important.

The barony needs more habitable land, so the newly opened border cannot be maintained for a long time only by the continuous patrol of the forest patrol battalion. Therefore, Laylen needs an entry point into the forest, one belonging to the barony. Outposts, standing in the heart of the Black Forest, are responsible for attracting the attention of evil creatures.

What’s more, the morale of the coalition forces is high, and they give up when they are victorious one after another, and the next expedition may not be smooth.

There are more than ten outposts along the way, and two large supply stations are still under construction. The army now chooses to retreat, which will only disrupt Laylen’s expansion plan.

So, move on?

The overall morale of the army is at its peak, and the overall military strength is well preserved. There are hundreds of crossbows, 120 excellent muskets with good power, four mortars, three heavy cannons, a Hellstorm shock cannon, and nearly three hundred knight.

In conventional operations, when encountering an enemy of the same magnitude, the coalition can easily win. When encountering an enemy three or five times more than one’s own, it is very difficult to win. If the pressure is below 30%, or even lower, if the enemy’s military strength exceeds 10,000, the coalition forces can retreat in time.

Under normal circumstances, to sum up the above, the probability of victory for the coalition forces is very high, but there are too many uncertainties in the mortal world, especially the vast black forest with serious chaos and corruption.

If the Red Venom Horde ambushed tens of thousands of goblins outside the detection range of the Wood Elf scouts, and summoned to their ridiculous spider **** several Arachrena spiders and a large number of poisonous spiders, a huge monster, The coalition forces needed to face it seriously, and several giant spiders rushed over from all directions. Even if the White Wolf Knights gathered here, they could not win.

So, Lallen pondered for a long time.

The next step is very important. If you go wrong, three-quarters of the Baron’s army will be wiped out, and the whole game will be lost.

“Send more scouts, I need more information.” The young baron shook his head, he chose to play steadily, waiting for repairs in place.

“Understood, my lord!”

The night shrouded the sky, and there was no starlight.

The dark forest during the day is extremely dark, and it is even more eerie at night. The boundless giant trees, their twisted branches are like the minions of the dead, terrifying every tourist who visits the forest.

A simple wooden fence was set up on the outer layer of the camp, and a small number of sentry swordsmen and crossbowmen occupied the top of the wooden tower. The lit torches were their only light source. Fortunately, the meals provided by the baron on weekdays included night blindness. Food, a lot of animal livers and carrots, and now in the baronial army, only a small number of soldiers are left with night blindness.

In the outer layer of the camp, forty or fifty Wood Elves are lurking in the treetops or bushes. Unlike humans, Wood Elves only need a very short rest period to recover their spirits. Therefore, the children of the forest take the initiative to serve as watchmen. , Lallen also let it go.

“Your Excellency Tugenheim, you have fought many forest goblins and know their habits very well. What do you think we should do now?” Lailun did not rest. He found the adopted son of the White Wolf Elector, the two Sitting together under the huge tree, chatting.

“If I were to lead the army, I would choose to send a large number of scouts, and at the same time send a small army to take the initiative to test the enemy’s reaction.” Tugenheim replied simply: “The number of enemies is unknown, and the army sent is no different from To die, but it is a necessary sacrifice.”

“…” Laylen nodded and didn’t say anything more.

Mercy is not in charge of soldiers, and is generally recognized among the mortal human kingdoms. A general with decision-making power needs a cold-blooded and selfless side.

Lailun also considered this method, sending some knights and two or three hundred soldiers to take the lead. Poor posture, and the overall quality of the military is uneven, but the coalition has not yet reached that level.

The baronial soldiers are all strictly selected and well-trained semi-professional soldiers. The Eternal Knights and the elite halberd company led by Gavin are professional soldiers. With Lallen present, the Eternal Knights could even never be defeated, and the morale of the rest of the baronial soldiers became more stable, forming the main force of the coalition.

Dwarves are naturally stubborn, their stone-like character is more tolerant and can withstand high battle damage, but the number of dwarves in the coalition is too small, and the morale of wood elves is stronger than that of humans. It means that they are willing to suffer large-scale casualties, which can be seen from the attitude of the woodland lord Olasif in the war before.

As for the more than 1,000 Middenheim soldiers led by the adopted son of the elector, except for the White Wolf Knights and the Uric Swordsmen, the remaining 700-odd soldiers, although they have all experienced the baptism of war, their morale is higher than There is still a big gap in the baronial soldiers, but it is acceptable for them to suffer a loss of one or two percent.

Based on these, Laren was not at ease and would not give them the most important defensive position to guard.

Another component of the coalition, those who followed the draft, the number of 340 people in the Free Militia (separately read the Free People | Corps) is completely different, these guys who follow the baron’s call or are eager to profit from the war , both fragile, leadership and unusable, there is no uniform standard equipment, the rich wear leather armor, holding a long sword and a short fire cannon, the poor have only a pitiful short sword and a hunting bow, the level of equipment Great difference.

Usually, Laylen placed them on the flanks to disrupt their positions, in order to take advantage of the mobile fire of the Free Militia. Laylen only brought them forward when necessary to face the enemy, and the Free Militia could withstand a wave at most. To attack, their job is to harass, and it is very difficult for these conscripts to take the initiative to charge and stand in place to defend.

However, such a war was more like a hard-won experience opportunity, not only for Laylen, but also a test for the Baron Draco.

All Laren could do was wait until the sent scouts returned.

“The mystery hidden deep in the black forest will always make people puzzled.” Leron yawned, leaned back against the tree trunk, stretched, and said helplessly.

“Haha~~ Leron, you’ll get used to it.”

At the same time, in the northwest of the Drakovald Forest, outside the dark abyss, the sky-high fire almost dyed the night orange.

A fierce and **** war is raging in the notorious black pit.

Lord of the Black Pit, King of the Thousand-eyed Spider Snagra-Poison Saliva is sitting on the hard carapace of his Queen Arachrena, and the sinister eyes of the Great Forest Goblin Warlord observe the situation, issuing screaming orders from time to time , its Black Pit Creeper Guard, nearly two hundred hobgoblins riding venomous spiders, these hideous and repulsive creatures, wearing colorful iris feathers seized from human knights, armed with iron spears and pulp Leather round shields, guard the most envied leaders in their allegiance.

The war that happened before the black pit was extremely tragic.

The flesh and blood dazzled under the stagnant blood red, and were closely connected. The sharp sharp weapons protruded from the swamp to form a killing line, damp, depressed, and fearful. The long battle line stretched for one kilometer. The trees have been stained with colorful blood, and around the dark abyss, the closed streams are filled with blood again, and the corpses are everywhere, but the **** slaughter field continues, and more monsters fall into the forest. .

Snagra, the king of spiders, was very excited, it kept screaming, praying for the blessing of the spider god, the green skin army entrenched in the dark abyss, the army of red venom, countless wild orcs and forest goblin goblins. , they madly believe in the legendary spider god, a small number of wild orcs believe in the treacherous and despicable Mao Ge, they built a huge spider **** shrine in the black pit, and hundreds of spider riders haunt the slaughter field , they fight on venomous spiders. As the king of spiders, Snagra rides the brown and black-spotted Queen Aracrina, the largest and most vicious of all spiders.

Snagra firmly believes that the mortal world will one day be ruled by spiders, and the spider web will cover the whole world, which is also the supreme task given to him by the Lord of Thousand Eyes.

“Go forward! Little ones! Go forward, I’m thinking that the bully can’t last long!” Snagra immediately ordered: “For the spider god! For the black pit!”

“Woooo–”

With the sound of the muffled horn, the Red Venom Tribe launched a new round of offensive. Countless white spider eggs on the treetops of the giant tree broke open, and the juvenile spiders with pale carapaces fell from the trees like hail, and the big spiders rode on them. After landing on the goblin spider rider, large groups of wild orcs rushed out of the black forest. They held the most primitive bone spears and flint axes. In the looming firelight, countless dark shadows rushed up.

“Moo!!!!”

The mournful roar of the bull revealed another beginning of the tragic war.

More than thirty dragons and demons galloped like thunder, their sturdy and powerful four hooves digging through the soil, their straight upper bodies held giant hammers, and they turned green-skinned tides. The big horned beasts, the inferior horned beasts, and the razor beasts roared the gospel from chaos, raised their rusted machetes and battle axes, and swarmed them all to meet them.

“Little ones, let go of the arrows! Let go of the arrows! Shoot me those sheep’s head shrimps!” The Spider King watched the battle closely and kept screaming: “Shoot! Shoot!”

It didn’t take long for the two sides to get closer, and the wave of beastmen entered the range of the forest goblin archers and spider riders. Now, nearly a thousand tattered short bows are aimed at the beastmen, and arrows like locusts are scattered from Projected from the forest in front.

The arrow feathers come and the arrow feathers fly away.

There are also large groups of bad-horned archers and big-horned throwers in the Beastmen army, with poor precision, but a large number of blasphemous feather arrows are also thrown at the greenskin frenzy, and hundreds of short spears are used at extremely close distances. With a huge lethality, dozens of wild orcs in the front row were instantly thrown forward.

Two waves of arrows rained down almost at the same time, like reaping wheat, a large area fell down densely, and hundreds of green-skin creatures and chaotic creatures were hit by feather arrows.

The group of bad-horned beasts, which usually collapsed at a touch, rushed up frantically under the arrow rain. Their beast eyes flashed with blood-colored madness, full of primitive bloodthirsty desire, and soon approached the wild orcs, and behind the green skin army, a large number of forest goblin bows and arrows. His hands were suppressed by the Beastman’s bone arrows, so he couldn’t lift his head, and his morale was in jeopardy.

“Give it all to me! Little ones, this is the blessing of the spider god! Behind us is the shrine of the King of Thousand Eyes!” Snagra waved the giant spider spear and spider staff, and a black sticky substance was attached On the retreating goblins: “Look, boys! Mad Venom!”

“Waaaaaaaaaaaaagh!” The goblin goblins and wild orcs possessed by the black sticky substance, their leadership skyrocketed in an instant, they picked up the guy regardless and started a head-on charge, rushing out of the forest towards the wave of beastmen Roll away!

“Moo!!” An angry bull roar followed, and a brass bull-headed monster with curved and razor-edged horns and a mouth that kept bleeding roared into the wild orcs. At the end of the arm, two giant lava axes that were burning hellfire slashed down in an instant, and rushed straight for more than ten meters like a whirlwind. Everything that was blocked was split open by the brass minotaur. After a few breaths, seven wild orcs, more than 20 young Spider Heng died under the lava giant axe, and the owner of the weapon shouted like thunder: “Moo!!! Moo!!!”

The evil **** Khorne, the beast of war, the horn of bloodthirsty, the blood-red beast, the disaster of Tarabek, the blood mist rises all over the Taunos-Bronze Bull, the savage pride fills the heart of the copper bull, and it swings wildly The battle axe engraved with the blasphemous dark rune, the anger like real accumulation, and the lava giant axe recklessly vents the violent **** of the beast.

The stronger the breath of blood, the more savage and crazy it will be!
