Chapter 42: Into the Forest 2
"My lord, I'm going to the wooden village in front."
Although Al didn't get much rest all night, he seemed to be in good spirits at this time.
More than 1,000 Flying Bear soldiers, led by Richard and Al and other guides, had approached the wooden village after a half-day march.
Richard walked to the top and could already see the situation of the wooden village from a distance, and the ogres had gathered, and they should have been discovered.
It is very difficult for a team of more than 1,000 people to launch a raid in broad daylight without being discovered, and Richard has not thought about what kind of raid he can do.
"There are more ogres than you think."
Richard said after observing
According to the previous description of Al and others, the number of ogres should be around two hundred, but now it seems that there are at least three hundred ogres, excluding the old and young with slightly weaker combat power, there are at least 150 young and strong ogres with quasi-knight combat power, and considering the ogre warriors equivalent to the knight level, this group of ogres is not easy to gnaw.
"I'm sorry, my lord, but we didn't deliberately hide it before."
Al hurriedly explained, afraid that Richard had misunderstood something.
Richard had no intention of pursuing it, the half-elf tribe where Al belonged was originally attacked by ogres, and it was crushed without resistance, and it was indeed difficult to accurately know the specific number of ogres.
"Prepare to attack."
"Yes, sir."
Officers such as Quill and Kerry on the side began to direct the Flying Bears to set up an offensive formation.
However, the ogres in the wooden village do not seem to be ready to stay in the village and wait for the Flying Bear Army to attack.
The gate of the wooden village was lowered heavily, and a group of ogres wielding miscellaneous weapons lined up in a simple formation towards Richard and the others.
Ogres aren't stupid, their choice isn't actually wrong, this kind of unfortified and specially treated wooden village may be able to protect against wild beasts or small groups of snow thieves, but it definitely can't stop a well-prepared army, and the ogres themselves are not good at defense.
Whether it is a simple rush or a fire attack, it can easily break the defense of the wooden village. It's just that what Richard wants is a complete half-elf wooden village, and fortunately, the ogre has a lot of wisdom, and if they rely on the wooden village to defend it, it will make Richard even more headache.
"Stop!"
With the dancing of the order flag, the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army, who had just marched in unison, stopped in place, and the spearmen in the front row half-crouched on the ground and pointed their spears forward.
"Bow!"
The archers of the Flying Bear Army drew their hard bows in unison and waited for the next command.
"One Hundred and Twenty Steps"
"One Hundred Steps"
"Eighty Steps"
"Put"
"Wind! Wind! Wind! ”
As the soldiers shouted, the rain of arrows covered the ogre's path with precision.
It's a pity that the effect of this rain of arrows is not good, although the ogres lack armor, but they are born with rough skin and thick flesh, which is equivalent to naturally having a suit of armor,
Most of these arrows are difficult to penetrate their skin, and even if they do, they will be stuck by their thick muscles, making it difficult to deal fatal damage, but they still have the ability to move, and even more violent when stimulated by blood.
Richard even saw four or five arrows stuck in the bodies of several ogres, and casually broke the arrows and continued to charge.
Only the archers produced by the system did some damage to the ogres, and the arrows fired by these archers with the bonus of Richard's Intermediate Offensive Skill were much more penetrating than the arrows fired by the Flying Bear archers.
Coupled with their amazing archery skills, most of them aimed at the eye sockets or knees and other parts, most of the more than ten ogres who fell in this round were due to them.
"Put!"
The Ogre charged so fast that the archers had no chance to play again after they had time to unleash a rain of arrows.
"Kill"
The pikemen in the front row bravely raised their spears in their hands, and then most of the spears stuck in the ogre's muscles, and it was difficult to move in.
Then the ogres who rushed into the group of lancers waved the crude wooden stakes in their hands, and the stakes that required humans to hug each other were firmly held by the ogre's large hands, making the tiger angry.
The soldiers of the Flying Bear Army were either dead or crippled as soon as they were hit, and the fine armor was almost useless in the face of such blunt weapons.
"Ahh
The sound of crashing and howling filled the entire battlefield for a while.
From time to time, an ogre was stabbed by several spears at the same time, incapacitated, and let out a painful roar in place.
The entire battlefield situation of the Flying Bear Army can only barely support, but there is no power to fight back, but the soldiers are quite tenacious, and no one retreats in front of the battlefield meat grinder like the ogre.
The balance of power didn't last long, though, as a visibly stronger ogre leaped into the crowd on the side of the Flying Bears.
More than a dozen Flying Bear soldiers formed a standard formation against a strong enemy, and they all handed over their spears, only to find that the tip of the spear was as difficult to advance as if it was pierced into an iron plate.
Instead, the ogre danced the mace in his hand, and several soldiers who were a little closer around flew out upside down, and finally fell to the ground without a sound.
Then the ogre waved the mace in his hand again and again, and there was no enemy around, even the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army, who had always dared to fight, were stunned, but this pause was very short, and the soldiers around him quickly made up for it, and the soldiers were still more afraid of the harsh military law than the death in battle.
Ogre warriors have finally appeared, ogre warriors are stronger than ordinary ogres, and their combat power corresponds to that of human knights, although they don't know how to cultivate and use vindictively, but they have their own unique cultivation methods,
With a powerful physical body, some of them with higher talent can also introduce qi into their own bodies, but they don't have the same qi extraction route as humans, but they only use qi very rough to strengthen themselves, if humans draw qi like this, I am afraid that they will soon destroy their own bodies.
But the ogre warrior was able to carry it hard, and finally used his qi to polish his body to a level that was not inferior to that of human knights, and even because of his rough polishing method, he had a little resistance to the fighting spirit of human knights.
The ogre warriors slaughtered in all directions in the crowd, crumbling the formation of the Flying Bear Army, and the surrounding ogres were also driven by the morale of the people and roared loudly.
But the arrogance of the ogre warriors ended here, and after finding out the depth of this ogre team, Richard turned his head and gestured to Ron,
Watching the ogre warriors slaughter their allies, Ron, who was already a little uncontrollable, beckoned a dozen crusaders to surround him silently.
