Chapter 13: Goblin Attack (3)
Ants are a very magical species, they are extremely weak, almost invincible to any other species on the planet, every creature will see an ant and will be extremely careless and quickly swiped a thought in his mind, a very simple and boring thought, whether to kill him or not!
The outcome often depends on the mood of the person involved, and as for the owner of life, the ant, and has no say in the matter!
For the orcs, Limburg is the ant, I'm leaving today, I feel like it's not fun and I have to find a way to grab it again, and by the way, let my little brother indulge it, maybe I won't be able to collect any money this time, but I just want to do this, why?~ Maybe it's because the weather is good today, and I'm in a happier mood.
Darkness finally fell, and the walls of Limburg were filled with torches, and the burning light of the fire lit up the walls red, and there were many people on them, and from time to time a whispered conversation or two came from them, which seemed to be quiet.
Lelouch looked anxiously outside the city, the wooden castle in the distance had been swallowed by the firelight, the burning fire was like a sunset on the distant horizon, red, according to the time, Libert and they should have come back a long time ago, but a long time has passed, according to the original plan, Libert and others should have come back an hour ago, but until now, there is still no trace of Libert and others.
Counting, where is Liebert almost a thousand people, in addition to the two hundred and fifty people taken by Liebert, the wooden castle also has a total of more than 700 people hunting team and logging team, if these people die, it will make Lelouch very heartbroken, they are now more or less Limburg's technicians, and because of the nature of the work, staying in the wooden castle is almost all strong labor, this is a full thousand strong laborers, this loss Lelouch can not afford it.
Fortunately, this torment did not make Lelouch uncomfortable for too long, and finally, a messy fire appeared in the darkness in the distance, and Limburg, which had been prepared, immediately opened the city gate and sent a hundred soldiers as a receiving force, there was no militia in it, and Lelouch did not want anything to go wrong.
Soon, the two teams converged, and after identification, the receiving troops led the people of the wooden castle towards Limburg, and from the city wall, the team below was quite neat, and there was no loss of personnel, and Lelouch finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene, especially after seeing Liebert, there was no worry in his heart.
Libert is still there, so even if there is a change in the team, it will definitely be dealt with.
Sure enough, Libert walked up to the city wall in fine chain mail, ready to report to Lelouch about the situation of the wooden fort, and the crowd under the city wall who saw his relatives hugged each other warmly, and those who did not see it for the time being were also anxiously looking for it in the crowd, and the soldiers were holding torches to maintain law and order around, and there was still some bustle below for a while.
Lelouch retracted his gaze and looked at Liebert who was walking over, and Liebert was also wearing a red dragon robe outside his body at this time, and the dragon on the red background looked particularly majestic:
"My lord, I'm back, we underestimated the goblin speed, and the team received an attack from the goblin pursuit force halfway, so it was delayed for some time. ”
"It's okay, as long as people are safe, how many goblins are chasing you?"
"Less than a thousand, all of them are some low-level goblins, I took fifty standing soldiers to break off, killed about two hundred goblins, and the rest were scared away!"
Hearing this, Lelouch was slightly speechless, this goblin is in line with the setting in the novel, under the huge number of combat power, and the courage is small, but I don't know if there will be a goblin setting in the game, and the technology is developed?
But I don't think about it, if there is, I won't be killed by my own fifty people, thinking of this, Lelouch can't help but breathe a sigh of relief, these goblins may just seem to be a little more numerous, if it really fights, Limburg should be able to win easily.
"How are those goblins, and can we defeat them?"
Lelouch wanted to get Libert's affirmation, but Libert shook his head:
"It's still difficult, although these goblins were beaten back by us, but this is because there are no goblins in their team, if there are highlands to command and suppress the formation, these goblins can still withstand a lot of casualties... At the end of the day, we have too few people!"
Libert's words made Lelouch helpless, it seems that although the goblins in this world are not as rubbish as set in the novel, and they are not as rebellious as those set in the game, but they also have his brilliance, the goblins are a bit similar to the flavor of the overseer team and commander, and the goblin troops with the goblins will at least not be slaughtered by other races.
The thought of fifteen thousand goblins rushing towards their two thousand five hundred people was a sour sight.
If Lelouch mobilizes with all his might, he can mobilize 5,000 people to go into battle, which is already half of the population of Limburg, if these 5,000 people go into battle at the same time, as long as they dare to fight, they will definitely be able to kill these goblins, but a hundred years of oppression have broken the last backbone of the Terrans in another world, and no one believes that the Terrans can defeat the enemy by relying on their own strength, even low-level goblins.
Lelouch knew that if he was forcibly led, not only would it not be a strong help, but it would also affect the performance of other teams, so it was better to leave them to defend the city, and as for re-erecting the backbone of the human race, there was only one way, and that was to exchange one victory after another against the alien race, and the goblins were just a trivial first victory.
Lelouch turned to Liebert:
"I know you're tired, but now I still need you, tomorrow the goblins will arrive in Limburg, I need to make sure that the planned soldiers are fully prepared, five hundred militia soldiers, two thousand militiamen, their supplies, mentality, and preparation, all depend on you, so, trouble!"
"Where, I am Lord Lelouch's knight and the captain of Lord Lelouch's guard, these things are what I should do, and please take a rest for Lord Lelouch, tomorrow's battle will depend on you, my lord." ”
Lelouch nodded, yes, the key point of tomorrow's battle is Lelouxiu, Lelouch has a hard grasp of the hearts of the people of Limburg during this time, in other words, it is called the people's will, as long as Lelouch appears on the battlefield, the soldiers will have fighting spirit, and the battle, the most important thing is the fighting spirit, as long as the soldiers dare to fight to the death and not retreat, then they will be able to defeat the goblins, Lelouch does not believe that the goblins' will to fight will be able to withstand fifty percent of the casualties!
So instead of saying that tomorrow's battle is a comparison of numbers, it is better to say that it is a contest of wills, who can hold out to the end, who can win the final victory, and Lelouch is a direct withdrawal of Limburg's willpower, as long as Lelouch does not retreat on the battlefield, then Limburg will not retreat, otherwise, it is a thousand miles away.
It has been a long time since the Terrans have had the courage to face the aliens, even if all the aliens are some goblins with extremely low combat effectiveness.
Looking into the distance outside the city, Lelouch looked at a tall warrior beside him:
"Nevsky, can you hold on to it tomorrow?"
The tall figure was hidden in the burly iron armor, a heavy black iron armor that looked unbreakable, and behind it was an equally heavy giant sword, which was almost as big as Nevsky's height of 1.9 meters.
"You let me eat enough, no one has ever let me eat enough, I will protect you, I guarantee with the glory of the Snow Mountain Barbarian Clan!"
The buzzing sound came from under the heavy black helmet, the sound seemed to be mixed with steel, Lelouch was very satisfied with the super soldier he "picked up", when Lelouch used a small amount of black iron to tailor a pair of super heavy armor for him, and tried his best to forge a steel giant sword for him, fortunately, these two things are not fine, the craftsmen of Limburg can still deal with it, in Lelouch's opinion, such a giant sword is not sharp, and a sword can cut all the enemies within three meters in front of him in half.
Yes, this Nevsky is the golden finger that Lelouch thinks came to power, although it seems that it can only be regarded as a rebel at present, and it cannot be reversed, but if it is used well, it can also play some unexpected effects.
There should be no problem with his own safety, not to mention that he is wearing a strict steel armor that protects himself, even if he is a giant man around him, it is impossible to let others get close, Lelouch sighed, although he is well prepared, but tomorrow is Lelouxiu's first battle after all, whether it is the native Lelouxiu, or the soul who comes to the modern age, tomorrow, it will be their first battle, it is impossible to say that Lelouch is not worried and worried.
But people are sometimes like ants, even if the situation is bad, until the last moment, he will never give up, even if Lelouch is anxious, he firmly believes that after he goes to the battlefield tomorrow, he will definitely be the first person to charge, just sitting, and can not arouse the fighting spirit of the soldiers to the greatest extent, only by rushing to the front line, there will be a glimmer of life.
The battle came faster than Lelouch imagined, and it was more fierce than Lelouch imagined, even if it was a goblin, but after reaching a certain level, it would produce a daunting combat power, especially now that Limburg was still weak.
Liebert's voice came from behind him, his footsteps were steadily inserted on the city wall, and the collision of steel and stone actually gave off a gentle taste, and the footsteps stopped in front of Lelouche's back:
"My lord, the 2,500 soldiers are all ready, and they have all rested after supper, and the soldiers are very anxious!"
"Two thousand five hundred soldiers who have been trained for less than two months against fifteen thousand high-spirited and huge number of goblins, can we win?"
Lelouch finally showed a hint of confusion, and he looked into Liebert's eyes.
Libert sighed slightly regretfully in his heart, and his random eyes became firm:
"If you can win, you must win, you must win!"
