Chapter 769: Crows vs. Eagles
Biggsu has too much experience in fighting the autumn wind. He'd seen too many Northland tricks.
Charlotte's group of crows followed the wolf cavalry all the way in the sky. Bigbeard, who has long been wary of the Northland druids, will naturally care a lot!
Speaking of gray orcs, there aren't many spellcasters among them, as they generally worship muscle power. It belongs to the kind of race that loaths and fears spells at the bottom, and looks down on spells at the top.
In some parts of the human race, the people at the bottom also fear magic and mages, but they are a minority after all. Most of the time it is still enviable. In particular, there are more remnants of the Northland civilization, and the concept is more open-minded.
But the Grey Orcs are not very good at spells, and the casters in the Grey Orcs are some beings that make the people fear and reluctant to approach.
However, this does not mean that Bigsu is really unable to deal with the crows in the sky.
Finally, Bigbeard's personal soldier still had a little mush in his head, and after Bigbeard said "clean up the eyes of the sky", he also knew to take the initiative to get his own adult's things.
Otherwise, Bigbeard may have to consider changing to a pro-soldier.
Bigsu took a large birdcage covered in black cloth from his own soldier. He tore open the black cloth, and in the birdcage built by the bones was a very divine eagle falcon!
This eagle is not too big, with a body length of sixty or seventy centimeters and a wingspan of one and a half meters. Its beak and claws glow with a strange metallic light, and its feathers are shiny like handicrafts. In addition, the eyes of this falcon are very sharp, as if there is a sharp thorn in the eye, and the gray orc soldiers who are looking at it involuntarily turn their heads.
Bigsu triumphantly looked at the falcon in the huge birdcage made of animal bones, and grinned ugly teeth!
This is a Swift Falcon, a magical beast with the pinnacle of bronze. It can use the power of the wind to accelerate, and the flight speed is very fast, which is an extremely fierce existence among birds.
The Grey Orcs have been thinking about how to hack some of humanity's little tricks for decades. Among them, the human druids rely on birds to monitor the movements of the team, which has always been a headache for the gray orcs.
More than ten years ago, there was finally a gray orc animal trainer who found a way to domesticate birds of prey, called boiling eagles. Then they began to domesticate all kinds of birds of prey to deal with the animal companions of the druids.
This Tempest Falcon is Beaglesu's recent achievement. Among the gray orcs, to be able to have an extremely divine bird of prey is a very long-faced thing.
Biggs reached into the cage to catch the Tempest, but the untamed Tempest pecked him hard.
However, Bigbeard was originally rough and thick, and with the protection of fighting spirit, it shook the head of the pecking wind falcon directly.
"Hehe, haven't had enough of the bitterness? Don't worry, eat slowly later. Now go to heaven and kill those damned ravens for me! Bigbeard flapped his arms and threw the Tempest Falcon into the air.
The Wind Falcon cries happily in the air, spreading its wings and flying high. After circling in the air twice, he hesitated for a moment, but still flew towards the crows in the distance.
This gray orc beast trainer boiled the eagle, which was carried out in conjunction with the primitive ritual and potions, and had a lot of control over these wild creatures.
The magic crows have a very high IQ, and except for the old man who was recently summoned, the others have even learned to speak. Naturally, he noticed Bigbeard's movements early.
Seeing the Wind Falcon rise into the air, they already felt bad, and Raven One shouted, "Brothers, the wind is howling! ”
The eight crows turned around and ran, and the wind falcon behind them kept speeding up and chased after them frantically!
The tips of the two wings of the Wind Falcon have pale white marks, which are accelerated by the force of the wind. So I caught up with the magic crows in almost a few dozen seconds!
"Haha! Brothers, this stupid bird has been fooled! B formation! Surround it! ”
The eight magic crows suddenly turned around and spread out their formation, surrounding the Wind Falcon in the middle!
Among Charlotte's magic crows, the largest crow No. 1 is already larger than a normal large raven, with a length of more than sixty centimeters and a wingspan of more than one meter and two! The youngest is also more than 20 centimeters long.
Although the combat effectiveness between birds is not only based on size, but the size of the bird is definitely superior. Don't lose your strength!
The wind falcon suddenly found that he was actually surrounded by crows, and he was stunned at first, and then he was furious!
I'm a eagle! You say that if you fight back, you will fight back, have you ever thought about my feelings? I don't want to lose face?
So he frantically pounced on the nearest Raven One!
But two fists are hard to beat forty-six wings! Eight crows almost formed in a ball in the air, pecking wildly!
……
The Bigbeard at the bottom looked stupid at the time!
What's the situation, that's my bronze peak wind falcon? It's not like you didn't eat last night, right?
What's going on with those crows? Why are there still crows that discharge!
After more than 30 seconds of chaotic fighting, the air was full of bird feathers flying and sprinkling!
In the face of the siege of eight magic crows with tacit understanding and abilities, and their strength is not much worse, but also the siege of cunning and treacherous magic crows, the Wind Falcon has long been outnumbered. But it's surrounded, and it can't get out!
Finally, after a minute and a half of heroic fighting, the Wind Falcon was defeated.
The defeat was complete, there was not much hair left, and the bird fainted.
"Brothers, take this stupid bird with you, let's withdraw!" Raven One spoke again, and several crows flew away with fainted bald falcons in their mouths.
On the road, Raven No. 1 is still sighing!
"Made, this stupid bird is so fierce that it stripped me of all my chest hair!"
Raven Two replied, "Boss, you're not bad! I've seen you pull off all the feathers from this stupid bird's tail! ”
Crow No. 1: "Uh-huh~ Don't mention this kind of trivial matter again......"
……
Bigsu stretched out his hand in a daze, caught a feather falling from the sky, and was stunned.
"This is the Tempest Falcon that I spent more than thirty gold dragons to buy and survived for more than a month? That's all there is left? ”
The Grey Orcs do not have their own currency and use the Golden Dragons issued by the Church of Woking. Most of the time, though, it's bartering, or simply looting.
Even for a thousand-commander, thirty golden dragons are quite painful!
Charlotte naturally didn't know that the leader of the other side's gray orcs had suffered "heavy losses", he just knew that the magic crows had brought back a "captive".
"Yo, you're very sweet! Even the hair has been plucked, and you can eat it after burning it! Charlotte was just joking, and was glared at by the elven sister Luna.
"Bring it! How pitiful this eaglet is, you still want to eat it! You're still a druid! ”
"I ...... I'm talking about having fun! I'm a druid, I'm so good at eating such a poor eaglet! Charlotte obediently handed the bald wind falcon to Luna.
Since the gray orcs and wolf cavalry have not yet meant to cross the river directly, then Xia Luo and they are not in a hurry. Anyway, it's all about delaying time, and it's better not to fight.
Under Guo Jia's command, the peasants and soldiers who accompanied the team began to build defenses.
Guo Jia doesn't have much concept of wolf cavalry, but since it is a cavalry, it must have high requirements for terrain. Then limit their charge!
This side of the bridge is digging pits and rejecting horses, and in just one day, it is already like a strict camp!
Charlotte herself felt that when she saw the appearance of this camp, she didn't want to attack. No wonder the ancient times would regard the ability to set up camp as the hard power of a general!
Now many veterans and non-commissioned officers in the camp have great respect for Guo Jia, and they must be called Mr. when they meet. This is an honorific title for some well-known scholars!
……
Don't mention the bird with the beard, he's angry!
The news that the cavalry squads he sent out was not very good either.
Although it is now almost winter, the water level of the White River is not high. But for the Grey Orcs, it's still a big problem. It is impossible to swim......
Eight kilometers upstream of the Baishui River, there is a rocky shoal that you can get through when the river freezes.
But he's a vanguard, his purpose is to test the truth, he can't wait for the army to arrive and still wander on this side of the river, right? There's not enough food!
With magic crows watching from the sky, detours and sneak attacks are impossible!
Only a strong attack!
"Tell me to go! Tomorrow morning we will force our way across the river! Kill all the weak humans! ”
