Section 31 Crewe's Offensive and Defensive Battles (7)

At two o'clock in the afternoon of 21 September, Viscount Tif led the newly assembled 7,000 men and men of Covind from the secret camp in the Peronis Hill to the vicinity of the Nesega Pass.

On the morning of the 22nd, Viscount Tif's headquarters arrived at their destination after a night of rapid marching.

Viscount Tiv himself, having set up his troops, took two of his retinues to the highest point in the Nessega Pass, where his headquarters had been located not long ago.

The traces of the bloody battle in the valley are still very clear, and the bloodstains on the ground have not even completely disappeared.

"It's going to be a battle of revenge!"

The young viscount whispered quietly, his tone undisguised as murderous.

Before this war, Viscount Tiv had never tried the taste of defeat ...

As the heir to the famous military family of Covinde, he grew up in praise, and his own strong personal strength and excellent command skills did not fail those who trusted him.

Viscount Zerorodin did not reproach him too much for the recent defeat, and even encouraged him to continue to hand over the command of the army to him.

Therefore, Viscount Tiv secretly swore that he would wash away the stain on his perfect life caused by his recent failure.

"My lord, the time is almost up, and if the High Command intelligence is correct, the scouts of the Goblin Vanguard will arrive here soon. An equally young knight's retinue took out the magic watch he had with him, and reminded him of his allegiance to the lord in a solemn tone.

...

A quarter past two in the afternoon,

More than 2,000 men from the vanguard of the main goblin force arrived at the Nessega Pass to conduct a carpet reconnaissance of the nearby areas prone to ambushes, but Viscount Tiv had already prepared for everything, and his army was hidden in the mountains farther away.

Soon, after finding no signs of an enemy ambush, the Goblin Vanguard scouts galloped towards the main force in the rear at great speed, while most of the officers and men of the Vanguard continued to move rapidly to the northwest.

And Viscount Tif, in order not to disturb his plan, forcibly resisted the idea of attacking this vanguard army.

At half past three in the afternoon,

The army under the personal command and supervision of Viscount Tiv lay in ambush between the hills on both sides of the official road of the Netega Pass.

Five o'clock in the afternoon,

More than 10,000 officers and soldiers of the main force of the goblins arrived at the Neisserga Pass under the leadership of their commander Omiqi, because the vanguard military had first reconnoitred the nearby area, and Omiqi was confident that there could be no Imperial army here.

Therefore, these more than 10,000 goblin officers and soldiers walked straight into the ambush circle that Viscount Tiv had carefully prepared for them.

Twenty minutes later, when most of the goblin soldiers entered the encirclement, Viscount Tif, who couldn't bear it, gave the order to attack...

This ambush battle, which had been prepared for nearly ten days, officially began under the orders of more than a dozen flag bearers!

The first to attack was a dense rain of arrows, and rockets, and nearly half of the fire oil of the Cowin Leader was poured out at this moment, and the fire that carried the anger of the Cowin Leader filled the entire Nessega Pass in the blink of an eye.

"Help!"

The goblins whispered their language, their voices sharp...

"Hold on to your weapons!"

"Don't mess up the formation!"

"Don't run around!"

The shouts of the officers did not help, and the heat of the fire made the soldiers not know what it was to be calm.

"Boom"

"Boom"

The fire ignited the explosives carried by the goblins, and a dull loud noise reverberated through the valley, sending countless goblin soldiers flying away, and in an instant, the area covered by the explosives was almost entirely covered with blood and severed limbs, and, of course, the pungent smoke and overturned dirt.

"Pounce"

"Pounce"

The characteristic sound of the repeating arrows suddenly sounded, and many goblins were killed by the crossbow arrows sent by their own people, along with these death arrows, and the military order of the goblin commander Omiqi:

"Fortify your position on the spot, and if you run around, the officers of each department can shoot them yourself. ”

Omiqi's orders were communicated to each detachment within five minutes, during which more than 1,000 goblin soldiers died under military law.

Soon, the chaotic army was suppressed under ruthless military law.

Countless defensive earth magic spells unleashed in the goblins' formation, and in less than ten seconds, most of the burning fires were isolated from the army.

"How can goblins have magicians?" exclaimed the magician attendant beside Viscount Tif.

"They don't have magicians, but they're rich. Viscount Tiv frowned.

Yes, the goblins are very rich, they are so rich that they can burn the fires of the entire valley and be extinguished by their countless magic scrolls!

"Pay attention to the formation, attack!"

At the same time, nearly 5,000 elites of the Goblin Army, led by various ministers, launched attacks on the nearby mountains on both sides.

"For the Empire!" Seeing this, Earl Tif, who was located in the central ambush point, rushed down with his paladin hammer, and his dash took advantage of the geographical advantage to overturn dozens of diminutive goblins in one fell swoop.

"Ahh

"For the Empire! For Krewe!" Soon, the other Imperial soldiers were also led by their respective officers, taking advantage of the fact that the goblin army had not yet formed an effective attack formation, and took advantage of its huge geographical advantage to compress the attack space of the goblin army.

But experienced goblin soldiers are not afraid at all, and the small repeating crossbows in their hands are the most effective weapons for short- and medium-range combat.

"Pounce"

"Pounce"

Countless crossbow arrows burst out from the magazines of the repeating crossbows, and with the sound of piercing the air, they went straight to the Imperial soldiers who were charging at the front.

This time, though, the soldiers of the Empire were clearly prepared...

However, the front of the original bare shields of the imperial soldiers was almost all wrapped in a thick layer of cowhide.

Soon, the goblin soldiers discover that their weapons have lost their original utility...

A crossbow bolt that could have easily pierced through an Imperial soldier's shield at a distance of interruption can now sink into half an arrow at most... And such an injury is nothing at all for an experienced veteran of the Empire.

"Show your steel knives, soldiers, and show the Imperial people the melee abilities of the goblins!" The goblin officers did not panic in their eyes, and they quickly made the right decision.

Soon, the ambush battle entered the final crucial battle.

The goblins' melee ability is indeed okay, perhaps because they know that they are not tall enough, so almost all the vital parts of their soldiers are protected by armor made of stainless steel, of course, this is due to their short stature, otherwise even if the goblins are rich, they will have to go bankrupt.

The battle continued until the next morning ...

The goblin forces were heroic at the last moment, but the disadvantaged geographical position after the siege and the inevitable weakness in melee combat could not save the doomed defeat.

In the end, Goblin Commander Omich ordered his assault team to detonate the last of their remaining bombs, blasting a gap at the eastern entrance to the Netega Pass, and leading a handful of goblins out of the siege.

Viscount Tiv also lost an arm and the lives of nearly 500 officers and soldiers because of this box of bombs, and he paid a heavy price for his last-minute impulses!

...

23rd, 3 p.m.,

When the Marquis of Daisiri of the Eleventh Legion received the report of the battle from the Nessega Pass, he rarely showed a relaxed expression, because the victory of the Nessega Pass meant that his mission was basically completed.

Now, all that's left is the Efunk Heights in front of you.

Moreover, the goblin troops on the Efunk Pass were almost unable to support it, and at the same time, during the nearly ten days of siege, his troops had already secretly opened the way to the jungle on both sides...

When the report of the battle of the Netega Pass came, it was time to launch a general attack.

But the Marquis of Daisily could never have imagined that victory in this battle would come so quickly.

Five o'clock in the afternoon,

Marquis Daisili, who was planning a general attack plan for tomorrow morning, received a report from the underground frontline troops in Efunk High: The goblins stationed on the high ground hung up the white flag!

Nearly 2,000 goblins discarded their weapons and began to slowly move out of their zone.

...

At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, that is, on the morning of September 24,

Pedi received the report of the battle in the Covinde area, but he was not overly happy, because in the Covinde area he had invested the strength of a legion, as well as the intelligence assistance of the local troops of the Covinde and the 'Radiant Force', and at the same time, his troops were fighting locally, and it would be strange if they could not win.

He said to his herald: "Tell the Marquis of Daisiri that I need to see his troops appear in the steppes east of Garmici by the 28th... Also, I'm interested in goblin bombs, so let them bring me some to the command post. ”()
