Chapter 213: Dry Firewood (Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription)

So generally speaking, the Bedai barbarians are still quite trustworthy. In fact, now they want to be unbelieved, but do they dare? There are so many orcs on the side, if he wants to be unreasonable, he also has to consider reality. Don't you see, they have always been arrogant, they can only find the orc king theory?

Since you plan to keep your word, then Hawkdorf has something to say, how many troops did you Bedai barbarians invest in the siege battle? What part of the wall did you attack? How many fighters have you lost?

The leaders who asked this question were speechless, these bandits did not plan to participate in the siege from the beginning, they were all cavalry, how to attack the city, wouldn't that be sent to death? And they had a ghost in their hearts from the beginning, this kind of thing that obviously compromises their strength, they won't do it, it's best for the orcs and the Silver Moon Kingdom to lose both, and all of them will die.

Therefore, in the battle against Esko, the Bedai barbarians were actually cruising around the periphery, fighting some reinforcements, and casually plundering some villages and towns that the orcs had no intention of taking care of, and did not invest troops to attack the city at all.

Hockdorf said, since you did not contribute in the siege, then why should we give you the spoils? Hawkdorf also fooled the chiefs, saying that he wanted to give some booty to the Bedai barbarians, but the chieftains and warriors under his command did not agree.

Oh, the orcs are fighting to the death, and the Bedai barbarians have been outside to fight soy sauce, and finally the orcs fought hard to capture the city, and you Bedai barbarians came over to share the spoils, and the orcs can accept it.

This made the Bedai barbarians a little unsure of what to say, but these barbarians were not without smart people, and immediately retorted, isn't it a credit that we have been out there to hold off reinforcements and take out those stubborn enemy strongholds (villages and towns that the orcs have no time to take care of)? Without them, the orcs wouldn't have been able to capture Eskaw so easily.

Hawkdorf was happy to admit the credits, but he asked a rhetorical question, leaving the leaders speechless. He said, "What do the orcs say about the spoils of war after you attack the reinforcements and the strongholds?" No orcs are asking you for a share of the spoils, are they? In that case, why are you so embarrassed to ask us for loot?

Although this is a bit far-fetched, it is not unreasonable. The tribal leaders of the Bedai barbarians naturally knew that the enemies they dealt with were all enemies who had been crippled by the orcs, and it was effortless to clean them up. If it really mattered, the orcs could also ask them for loot, if the orcs hadn't crippled them, would the Bedai barbarians be able to clean them up so easily?

In the end, Hawkdorf gave those barbarians an idea, although Esko was rich, it was still a border city, which was comparable to the city in the hinterland of the silver moon.

In the west of Esko, there is a huge plain guarded by the ridge of the world and the Nether Mountains, the Sandaba Plain, because there are tall mountains on both sides of the north and south, and it is the origin of the Raven River, so the climate is relatively mild, the water and grass are abundant, and it is a rare natural pasture in the north. Almost 85 percent of the kingdom's livestock farming is located here.

And because of the two huge mountain ranges, this area is also the richest place in the Silvermoon Kingdom, where 70% of the kingdom's gold and silver mines are located. It is not an exaggeration to say that this place is very rich.

Hawkdorf fooled the Bedai barbarians to attack the city here, and any city captured could make the Bedai barbarians have enough to eat. At the same time, Hawkdorf assured the leaders of the Bedai barbarians that as long as the Bedai barbarians could defeat those cities, the orcs would never interfere, anyway, there were so many cities, and the orcs could not monopolize them, and they would not grab them all, so as to avoid conflict.

The tribal leaders who had been bribed by Hawkdor, when they heard this reason, they had to pinch their noses and admit it, after all, they were soft, at least they themselves did not suffer, as for the tribe's subordinates, anyway, Hawkdor's reason can also be stopped, just have a statement, besides, anyway, they can rob other cities in the Silvermoon Kingdom, and they will earn more when the time comes.

However, these leaders, who were carried away by profits, did not realize that the orcs did not go west at all, but stayed where they were.

To get back to the point, Samaki also had a toothache when he heard the words of his subordinates, he was not interested in coming to trouble these human legions, but these humans organized a huge defense line in the east of the Sandaba Plain, the narrowest part of the two mountain ranges, and blocked the eastern entrance of the Sandaba Plain.

Samaki can't even do it if he wants to bypass the defense line quietly, and the defense line that the three major legions are responsible for is at the forefront of the entire defense line, and it is also the weakest area of the defense line. This is simply the ideal breakthrough point for cavalry, and Samaki is reluctant to touch those fortified cities anyway.

Samagi could be appointed as the commander of this Bedai coalition by all the clan leaders, so naturally he couldn't be a fool. He clearly knew that the 5,000 sand camel cavalry in his hands, although they were not afraid of any opponent in the field, but if they were to attack the city, it would be like sending them to death.

They only have cavalry, no infantry, and there can be no infantry, and the Bedai barbarians who do not ride sand camels can still be called Bedai barbarians? There is no infantry cooperation, no siege machinery, not even spellcasters, let them go to the siege, what to attack?

As a last resort, Samaqi could only keep an eye on this line of defense, but I don't know if he was too unlucky, but he didn't expect that the soldiers stationed here were actually the three legions that were the most elite in the entire Silver Moon Kingdom.

In fact, it is precisely because there is no support behind this section of defense that the kingdom will deploy them to guard here, after all, their combat effectiveness is strong.

"Of course it can't be hard rushed, now that the formation of the Silver Moon people has been set up, if we hit it headlong, the loss will be too great." Samaqi frowned, took a deep look at the strict formation of the Silver Moon soldiers, and felt that it was absolutely impossible to fight hard, so even if he could defeat them, he would lose too much, and when the time came, it would be difficult to explain to those leaders.

So Samaki decided to use harassment tactics and use small forces to open the formation of the Silver Moon soldiers, especially the heavy cavalry on both flanks, to pull them apart, leaving only the infantry of the Chinese army, and then find a way to attack those infantry from both flanks. Once she had made up her mind, Samaki began to give orders.

"Mirtu! Take your tribal cavalry to attack the heavy cavalry from the left flank, and remember to take the iron guys around in a circle and take them away from the main battlefield. ”

"Tulis! You take people to the right flank, the task is the same as Mirtu, I ask of you a little, I don't want to see those iron guys until the battle on the main battlefield is clear! "Samaki fought with the heavy cavalry, though he scoffed at the mobility of the heavy cavalry.

In fact, the speed of the heavy cavalry is not slow, but how can the endurance of the horses be compared to the sand camels? So in Samaqi's eyes, this kind of cavalry that runs for a short time and becomes slow, mobility is really not worth mentioning.

But it is undeniable that the combat effectiveness of this group of heavy cavalry is really not to be underestimated, and Samaki doesn't want to have a head-to-head charge with these guys.

As far as the Bedai barbarians are concerned, they have never had the concept of honor, only killing the enemy is the most important thing, since this group of people is difficult, then it becomes logical to bypass them for the time being, anyway, after packing up the infantry, Samaki has a hundred ways to kill this group of bulky cavalry, just tired can exhaust this gang of iron tortoises.

"Yes!"

The men of the Bedai barbarians are the kind of characters who don't talk much, and after receiving the order, they gathered their cavalry and began to move. The ordinary men of the Beidai barbarian tribe are like this, taciturn, and at the same time ruthless, and never drag their feet in doing things.

I don't know if it's lucky, the plan of the Silver Moon Kingdom coincides with Samaqi, and after the battle with the Bei Dai barbarians, the Silver Moon Kingdom also saw clearly, it is a dream to have a hard time with this gang of robbers, these guys have no sense of honor, and they will run away if they can't beat them. In this case, if the heavy cavalry is really placed on the flanks, it is actually useless, but it will scare these guys away, in this case, it is better to let the heavy cavalry run out first.

Start from the flanks, make a big detour, and see the opportunity to outflank, if you can block the rear of this group of robbers. As long as the Chinese army's Silver Moon Arrow can hold back the main force of the bandits, then the remaining heavy infantry on both wings will have a chance to extend from the two wings, as long as the two wings are stopped again, then this group of bandits can be completely annihilated, at least their main force.

This plan is very beautiful, but it is a little difficult for the Silver Moon Arrow, their task is too heavy, not only to withstand the charge of the main force of the barbarians, but also to entangle their main force, which is too demanding for the Silver Moon Arrow.

However, the commander of the Silver Moon Arrow is very confident, they are all infantry configurations, whether they are crossbowmen or magic archers, they all belong to the infantry sequence, and their crossbowmen can also become infantry at the necessary moment, and they have also been trained in this area.

After all, such a good source of soldiers, if not the greatest use, is simply a waste. You must know that as soon as the enemy approaches, the power of the crossbowman will be greatly reduced, and if there is no other self-defense, it will be too irresponsible for yourself, plus in fact, the training of the crossbowman is not complicated, as long as you get started, it will be much simpler, on the contrary, infantry training is their old job.

And don't look at the danger of this task, but the benefits are also great, if this battle is won, then after the battle, then the Silver Moon Arrow is definitely the first achievement, if the commander of the Silver Moon Arrow does not grab this task, then his soldiers will not be happy. Ordinary people pursue peace, and soldiers yearn for war.

So when they saw that the barbarians had sent two small groups of cavalry to harass the heavy cavalry on both flanks, the three commanders jumped for joy. This is really a prostitute meeting Sister Yao, and dry firewood meets fire.
