Chapter 50: Leo in Action!

Long before the start of the war, Leonardo carefully selected five hundred commando fighters. The www.biquge.info quietly made a big circle and burrowed into the woods from the southeast. And with them, there is also a team of only 30 people.

The team was not as well equipped as Leonardo's warriors, armed with heavy axes and specially made chain mail. The chain mail also deliberately attached a heart shield to the chest. The lower body is a battle skirt made of iron sheets. He wears a short sword at his waist. Tall and strong.

They are the Barbarian Guards who have just joined Allen's army.

The reason why Eren sent the Barbarian Guard was to strengthen the aggressiveness of Leonardo's team. The Barbarian's ability to charge into battle has always been terrifying. Not only is it rough and thick, its health is super high, but it also goes berserker-like rage. As a result, a squad of barbarians is often able to crush an army of humans three or four times as large as it. In the face of such savage creatures, humans often need to rely on numerical superiority or the defense of the city walls to withstand the powerful attack of the barbarians.

The two groups formed a group, and as soon as they entered the woods, they immediately let go of their horses and crept into the woods.

"General Leo, what are we going to do?"

Truth be told, when barbarians are not fighting, they are not as vicious as they are rumored. Leonardo looked at Barbara, who had a simple face, and thought so in his heart.

"Quite simply, you are tall and not suitable for hiding. Therefore you follow us. When it's time to attack, I'll signal you, and you'll rush straight ahead. Do you understand? Leo quickly explained the order to Barbara.

Barbara nodded, although their brains were not as developed as humans, but they could still understand such simple words.

The group quickly gathered their equipment, Leonardo led the lead, and Barbara followed with the barbarians.

Leonardo also made a lot of preparations for this operation. First of all, the shoes were replaced with relatively soft leather boots, so that there would be no harsh metallic sound when stepping on the ground. Secondly, the double-layer chain mail on the body has also been changed to a single layer, and the helmet has also been replaced with a wide-faced helmet with a wider field of vision. At the same time, in order to prevent the armor from reflecting the sun, it was also smeared with mud, causing everyone to seem to roll in a circle in the mud.

In terms of weapons, the commandos also abandoned the two-handed heavy sword and the armor-piercing artifact mace in favor of a smaller and more effective short hand axe. This kind of sharp weapon, which can be used as a throwing axe and short-range strikes, is undoubtedly a very suitable equipment in ambushes in the woods.

Although Leonardo had made a lot of preparations, he was cautious. Because Alan had already told him that Renard was a very cautious person. Then, for such a wood, which is only three or four hundred meters away from his main formation, he naturally will not arrange a secret sentry scout or something. Leonardo needed to watch out for these sentinels, if they found out, not only would their plans fail, but even their own safety would not be guaranteed.

However, although the commander is a cautious person, the army at this time is not an advanced army with a mature military system like Allen. Except for the 3,000 Renard personal guards brought out by Renard himself, most of the rest of the soldiers were a combination of the standing army of the kingdom and the private soldiers of the local nobles. There are also common conscripted peasant soldiers with a combat strength of less than 5.

Therefore, it is better to expect these soldiers to strictly carry out military orders than to expect a white loaf of bread to fall from the sky.

Just as Leonardo led the team slowly approaching the heights, the sentinels sent by Renard to scout were gathering together to gag. It's not to discuss the issue of your own food treatment, or to discuss whether to go to the merchant camp tonight to find a few ** to solve your physiological needs. Those people have long forgotten all about their military orders.

Actually, there is a reason for this. Ever since Allen deployed troops in the southeast direction. The woods have gone from flanks to rears here. If it is said that on the battlefield the flank is often outflanked and attacked. Then the discipline in the case of an attack in the rear is much less. After all, very few people are able to bypass the entire frontal battlefield, bypass the entire flank and then raid the rear. If you want to do this in time, you will be blocked by your own side in advance.

Therefore, the Rollin soldiers stationed again did not think that Alan would attack from this place. So it was relaxed. That's it, until Leonardo touched him, they didn't even notice it.

Leonardo heard someone talking from a distance. After ordering the soldiers not to act rashly, he quietly approached the place where he was talking.

And right there, there were six or seven soldiers from the Kingdom of Rollin who were laughing and talking, not feeling the danger at all.

Leo quietly observed for a moment, and after making sure that there were no other sentinels around, he quietly returned to the side of the team and informed the members.

A moment later, Leo led several people into a fan shape and slowly surrounded the Rollin sentinels.

Suddenly, there was a "buzz" sound in my ears. This was followed by a flurry of "buzzes" and the whoosh that followed. It was the sound of an arrow breaking through the air.

Before the Rollin sentinels could react, they were directly pierced through their bodies by the dark arrows shot from all around. The powerful arrow did not consider the blocking of flesh and blood in the slightest, and after passing through the soldier's body, it continued to fly with the remaining strength, and finally "Do! The sound was embedded in the trunk of the tree.

Rollin's sentinels didn't know what was happening, they only felt a pain in their bodies, and then the strength of their bodies tilted out of the pain like a deflated ball. Soon, they fell to the ground weakly, letting the blood run all over the ground.

Leo did not delay, and the moment the sharp arrow was fired, he quickly drew his hand axe, and pounced like a tiger into the group of Rollin sentinels. Seeing that some of the sentries still had some breath left, without giving them a chance to make a sound, he cut off their heads with an axe.

"Hide everyone, be sure to move quickly, be hidden. Don't be discovered! Leonardo quickly gave instructions.

Soon, under the swift action of the soldiers, the bodies of six or seven sentries had been disposed of. The blood on the ground was also covered by the dirt. The wind swept through the trees, blowing away the last vestiges of blood.

Leonardo nodded, waved his hand, and continued to walk cautiously with his soldiers.

There was a faint sound of trumpets in the distance, and Leonardo knew that the two sides had officially begun to clash. Time was running out for them, and now that they were about a kilometer away from Renard's headquarters, Leonardo had a long way to go to clear out Rollin's sentinels as soon as possible.
