Chapter 184: Peripheral Battle (1)

On the sixth day of dormant in the forest, Art finally led the outpost and began to attack several Lombard outposts and patrols around Solburg.

According to Art's arrangement, there were four targets for the attack, namely three waiting posts and a patrol. One of the most difficult to attack is the stone farm at the bottom of a small hill.

In order to make the attack on the farmhouse as difficult as possible, Art divided the outpost into four parts: Odo led the second squadron of Kazak to attack a small village with eight sentinels; Ron leads his 4th squadron in attacking a small outpost set up at a fork in the road; Angus led the Sentinel Cavalry in charge of ambushing a patrol of five Lombard cavalry.

As the centerpiece of the battle for the entire Solburg outskirts, Arte will personally lead Tubba's 3rd Squadron and 1st Mercenary Squadron, as well as the Bow and Crossbow Squads and Baggage Squads, to lurk in the dense forest on the other side of the hill.

Since the farmstead under the hill was a support point for the entire defense system of Solburg, the Lombard army in the farmstead should be supported in the event of an attack on the other areas, and after the enemy troops in the farmstead were attracted to support the various places, Art would personally attack the farmstead with most of the outpost......

Several teams have already rushed to their respective battlefields.

Six miles northeast of the farmstead at the foot of the mountain, Odo's 2nd Squadron of Kazak was silently approaching a mountain path close to the small village where the Lombards were stationed.

This small village was originally a lumber yard, but it was gradually transformed into a village of more than a dozen families because of the increase in the number of lumberjacks and the proximity to the road for transporting timber.

However, there were no lumberjacks or civilians to be found, and most of them fled to the Northland with their families soon after the war began, becoming part of the Provençal exodus, and the old and weak who did not want to leave their homes were slaughtered by the Lombards who had invaded Provence.

So now there were only eight Lombard defenders in the village, and of course, a few plundered Provençal women who were used as slaves and tools of gratitude by the Lombard defenders.

As a dozen dark shadows approached the village along the edge of the forest, the Lombards in the village were still acting recklessly, and the miserable voices of the women were endless.

"Chief Odo, that group of mongrels is bullying the captive women in the village, and there are only three enemy outposts at the entrance and on the watchtower." Wei Yu, the leader of the first squad who went to the outpost outside the village to investigate the enemy's situation, touched it back and reported the situation.

"Chief Odo, while the enemy is defenseless, let's kill him!" Kazak couldn't stand the screams of the village, and the Lombard mongrels didn't know how to abuse the poor women.

Otto looked at the sky, and the sun was barely above his head.

"The attack on our side is mainly to force the enemy at the farmstead under the mountain to send troops to support, so I will deliberately let the messenger go for a while. And the adults told us that it was better for us and Ron to start at the same time at noon, otherwise if they haven't done it and the enemy is awakened, it will be difficult for them to attack. Otto looked down and analyzed.

So they waited for a while, until the sun was in the sky, and Odo gave the order, and a dozen elite soldiers rushed out of the dense forest, and fell to the ground one by one, following the weeds and shrubs outside the village, little by little, towards the village where the Lombards were stationed......

"Satcher, are you guys done! It's my turn, how will I enjoy it if you kill me again in a while. "At the door of a slightly larger wooden house in the small village, a Lombard soldier looked through the crack in the door to observe the filth of the house, and then urged the people in the house impatiently.

After a long while, a short "thin rod" with a sweaty face pushed open the wooden door and walked out, lifting his pants while scolding at the Lombard soldiers who had just urged: "Next time you dare to urge me, I will directly kill all those women, and I will not leave any of them!"

The Lombard soldiers shouting outside the door ignored the threatening insults of the "thin pole", and could not wait to push away the guy who was blocking him, ran towards the house, and slammed down the wooden door.

"Thin Rod" bent down and crawled at the crack of the door and watched intently for a while, the beads of sweat on his face turned into a smug silver smile, "Far worse than me, useless guy~" Saying that, "Thin Rod" turned around and walked towards the sentry post and tower outside the village, where there were three new recruits who had just joined and stood on tiptoe waiting for him to be replaced.

"Thin Pole" hummed a Lombard country tune all the way slowly and leisurely to the village sentry post, but when he looked closely, there were no sentries on the wooden huts and towers of the sentry posts, but he saw a few heads exposed in the shade next to the sentry post.

The "thin rod" was only a few recruits who were on guard and slept lazily or hid in the shade and gossiped, scolding angrily as they walked towards the sentry post: "You bastards! Dare to take advantage of our absence to cheat and play tricks!! "I was going to go up and beat a few people.

But when the "thin rod" was about to get close to a few heads, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, because with his abuse, several heads did not move in the slightest.

The thin rod pulled out the broad-backed single knife at his waist, and slowly walked towards the sentry post with the blade facing forward.

The thin rod saw three corpses covered in blood leaning on the wooden plank of the sentry post, and they had been angry for a long time.

"Not good! Enemy attack! The thin rod screamed in surprise and turned to escape, but on the other side of the sentry post, a dozen strangers armed with sharp blades and hammers suddenly rushed out......

While Otto and his party were chopping melons and vegetables to kill the Lombard enemy soldiers in the small village, at the intersection of the north-south road, four miles northwest of the farmstead at the foot of the mountain, the scene of the Lombards chasing and killing a Provençal beggar was being staged.

The two Lombard soldiers chasing the "homeless beggar" stopped, looked at the back that could never catch up, crossed their waists and gasped, and said to a Lombard soldier beside him: "This ~ mongrel ~ is definitely not ~ a homeless, it must be sent by the enemy army ~ to spy on the news, catch ~ catch him, receive a reward ~ reward." ”

Another Lombard soldier also bent over tiredly with his hands on his knees, and replied: "Yes~, run~ run, so fast~ absolutely ~ not ~ civilians!" Chasing~" As he spoke, he dragged his weapon and rushed towards the back thirty paces away.

Thirty paces away, Ron was tired and tired.

Apparently this chased Provençal beggar was Rohn's disguise. After following Art for a long time, Ron has unconsciously learned all the intrigues and tricks of Art to deal with the enemy, even if it is less against more, he is not willing to fight hard until it is absolutely necessary.

No, there are also a small outpost of six sentinels Ron also has to use a little "conspiracy" to disperse and break it, but this can't all be blamed on Ron's fuss, it is really because this inconspicuous small outpost of six people is actually two infantry bows and a crossbow, and the small outpost is located at the intersection of the road, there is not even a tree around, it is difficult to get close to it in concealment, in order to minimize the battle damage, he has to use "conspiracy".

Ron didn't forget to turn his head from time to time to look at the pursuers behind him when he was running at top speed, and he had to be careful not to run too fast and make the enemy lose the confidence to pursue......
