Chapter 1638: A Thousand Miles Rush (Part II)
More than 500 people sprinkled into the entire mountain forest like a drop of water melted into the sea, and disappeared in an instant.
And for these troll hunters, setting traps is a craft that they rely on for a living, and if they really let go of their hands and feet, it will definitely be the kind of death that does not pay for their lives.
When the third watch came, heavy snow fell in the sky again, and the cold wind was like a file scraping the skin.
Murong Feng asked Bing Fang to lead the team to patrol and guard to prevent the Viku scouts from discovering their ambush. The frozen teeth shivered, and said, "Those Viku people who are freezing in the cold sky under the crown shouldn't come out to patrol and guard, right?" β
"Call me an Overseer before outsiders." Murong Feng squinted and said, "Also, don't expect the enemy to be as stupid as you. β
Bingya laughed dryly, and had to personally lead a team to patrol outside the mountains and forests.
Dregmar looked up at the sky for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this heavy snow won't stop for a while, will it affect tomorrow's battle?" β
Murong Feng said: "There will definitely be an impact, but the impact on those Viku cavalry is even greater, and it seems that Tianshi is also helping us." You go and tell all the soldiers to hurry up and eat and rest. I'm going to launch a sneak attack at dawn to lure those Vekus out. β
"Yes." Dregmar immediately took the order.
At this time, Bingya suddenly ran to report in a panic: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Uh, Overseers! β
Murong Feng glared and said, "Don't panic, what do you look like!" What's up? β
Bingya took a few breaths and said hurriedly: "Go and take a look, there seems to be movement among those Viku people under the mountain." β
Murong Feng frowned and said, "Let's go!" Lead the way! β
Bingya immediately led Murong Feng to the edge of a cliff, standing on the top of the cliff and looking down, he could vaguely see a fire in the Weiku camp in the snowstorm.
Murong Feng narrowed his eyes and asked, "What anomaly did you find?" β
Bingfang pointed and said, "Look over there, those Viku seem to be retreating overnight!" β
Murong Fengshun looked forward and really saw a thin fire dragon winding out of the camp of the Viku people.
Bingya said excitedly: "If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, you must be preparing to escape." β
Murong Feng pondered for a moment and ordered, "You stay here and continue to monitor, and I'll go and find out." β
"Good!" Bing Ya responded very happily, anyway, he believed that with Murong Feng's strength, the mere three thousand Weiku people were no threat to her at all.
Murong Feng jumped directly off the cliff, like a nighthawk quickly disappearing into the thick darkness.
Bing Fang stood on the top of the cliff and endured the scorching cold wind, but he didn't dare to leave lightly, anxiously waiting for Murong Feng to come back, but it didn't take long for Murong Feng to turn back.
"Your Majesty? How did you come back so quickly? Are those Viku really going to run away? Bingya hurriedly asked.
Murong Feng shook his head and said, "I just got close and found several magic warning traps, in order to avoid startling the snakes, I went around the camp of the Viku people, and I didn't find any Viku people who fled overnight." β
Bingfang shuddered, "Then what are these Viku people doing in the middle of the night?" β
Murong Feng thought for a moment and guessed: "Eighty percent is rushing to repair the fortifications to prevent those earth spirits from coming back." β
Bingya was surprised: "Then will we fight tomorrow?" β
Murong Feng said: "The battle plan remains the same, but let's test it first, if those Viku people dare to chase them into the forest, it is best to surround them, and if they dare not come out, we can surround them without killing them for life." β
Bingya rubbed his arms and said, "But we only brought dry food for three days, what will we eat if the food runs out?" β
Murong Feng said, "What are you afraid of? Have you forgotten that we still have allies? β
Bingya patted his head and said, "Look at my memory, sure enough, you are still smart, this is all calculated." β
Murong Feng said: "Okay, don't be a sycophant, arrange a few people to watch here in shifts." β
"Yes." Bingfang hurriedly responded.
A night of snow and wind drifted, and it was the darkest moment before dawn.
Murong Feng, who was meditating on his knees, slowly opened his eyes: "It's time, get ready to act!" Ice Fang, Dragmar, you each lead the second and third companies to the ambush point, and the first company will come with me! β
Immediately, more than a hundred troll hunters quietly gathered around Murong Feng and followed her down the mountain.
At this moment, the Viku soldiers, who had been busy all night, had just fallen asleep, and many of them fell to bed and began to snort without even removing their snow-soaked armor.
The Viku commander Ingvar led a few henchmen to inspect the fortifications that had been built overnight.
Yesterday, those earth spirits gathered a few mountaintop giants to attack the camp, which really surprised Ingval.
In particular, the mountaintop giants who were more than ten meters tall were almost in a no-man's land, and their bows and arrows were tickling these rocky giants.
If it weren't for the slow movement of the mountaintop giants, they might have been driven out of the ruins and retreated.
So in order to prevent those earth spirits from coming back again, Ingwar specially ordered the soldiers to dig many deep pits around the camp overnight. He had wanted to dig a trench directly. But the problem is that the amount of work is too large, and the weather is freezing cold, and a hoe can collapse your face, so you can only retreat to the next best thing, and dig many large pits around the camp specifically for the weakness of those giants' slow movement.
Ingvar nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the ground outside the camp that had been cut by dogs, and said in high spirits: "With these big pits, if those mountaintop giants dare to come, they will not be able to move an inch!" β
"The Great Lord is wise!" A few henchmen immediately slapped their ass.
But there were also blind guys who questioned: "Great lord, how many pits have we dug around the camp, in case other enemies attack the camp, how can our cavalry attack quickly?" β
Ingval's face froze, and he snorted coldly, "What else can this ghost place threaten us besides those uncivilized bear monsters?" Or do you think those little blueskins from the north have the guts to take the initiative to attack us? β
Several other henchmen immediately chimed in: "That's it, what the Great Lord said is right, we have three thousand bear riders who can walk sideways in this ghost place, it's good if we don't go to trouble others, who would dare to attack us?" β
"These pits are not completely sealed out, just take a few more detours when you go out, as long as you don't go blind, you won't fall into the pit, hahaha."
"It turns out that only digging pits and not trenches has such a deep meaning, or the great lord is thoughtful."
Ingwar's old face turned red, and he turned around and said arrogantly: "Okay, don't be a sycophant, all the soldiers have been tired all night, and I ordered that today's food supply is unlimited, so that all the soldiers can have a good meal, and we will go to the territory of those little blue skins tomorrow to loot!" β
"Yes, High Lord!" Several henchmen immediately had their eyes shining brightly, and they responded neatly.
Boom!
"Huh? What is it? Several people heard a strange sound in the sky, and subconsciously turned their heads to look at the landing point, and saw a slightly trembling crossbow bolt on the big flagpole in the center of the camp......
Boom! Thundered!
Immediately, a loud bang suddenly exploded in the camp, and the flagpole that was hugged was immediately blown off by the waist and fell down with a bang.
"Enemy Attack !!" Only then did the alarm sound.
The next moment, a dense rain of arrows poured in, shooting the Veku people on duty.
On a high ground outside the camp.
Murong Feng led a company to carry out a round of throwing here, and her first shot hit the opponent's handsome flag, which immediately made her own morale burst instantly.
Malak whispered to his teammates as he pulled his bow and shot arrows, "This Overseer's archery skills are truly amazing!" β
Sladlan cast a spell to poison the archery enchantment of several people, and chimed in: "That's for sure, if you can defeat Ba Zhe, you will be an ordinary person." β
Murong Feng's ears and eyes were sensitive, so he naturally heard the whispers of the people behind him, and couldn't help but blush. Because the previous arrow was aimed at the few Veku people who were patrolling around the camp and looked like they were at the level of generals, but they didn't expect a gust of wind to blow directly off the flying arrow and plunge headlong onto the flagpole.
I have to say that this random arrow method is sometimes even afraid of Murong Feng himself.
"Overseer, three salvos are over, and those Vekus haven't been killed yet, should we keep shooting?" Woody, the commander of a company, went up and asked.
Murong Feng waved his hand and said, "Stop shooting to save your physical strength." β
"Stop shooting!" Woody immediately turned around and ordered.
The chaotic camp of the Viku was filled with scurrying figures and the roar of a giant bear, and the previous three rounds of projectiles had caused great confusion to the Vikus without causing many casualties.
Murong Feng secretly thought that if he had another army on hand, he could take advantage of the chaos to rush into the opponent's camp to end the battle.
At this time, several Veku giant bear cavalry took the lead in rushing out of the camp gate and turned around to kill the trolls.
Murong Feng raised his crossbow and was about to aim, but he didn't expect that the Viku cavalry who rushed to the forefront would directly plant his heels on the spot and roll out far away......
"Overseer, the Viku mount seems to have fallen into a pit???"
"I see it." The corners of Murong Feng's mouth twitched slightly: "The commander of the other party is definitely a guy with a brain in the water, and he actually dug a pit at the gate of his own cavalry camp. β
The trolls burst out laughing.
At this time, the four doors of the Viku camp were opened, and many giant bear cavalry rushed out one after another, but they were all limited by the large pits on the ground, and they could only turn around.
Murong Feng directly ordered: "Shoot freely, aim at the opponent's mount!" β
"Free fire! Aim for enemy mounts! β
Suddenly, the bowstrings snapped, and the arrows rained down, and they roared towards the Viku cavalry who were struggling to walk.
Immediately, countless giant bears roared in pain and threw their owners off their backs, jumping around frantically, making the scene chaotic.
"Woo!!" A long horn suddenly sounded in the camp, and immediately the Viku giant bear cavalry who had rushed out of the camp gate fled back to the camp with their heads in their hands.
Phewββ!
Suddenly, there was a whistling sound!
"Overseers beware of spear throwing!" Woody exclaimed, and was about to push Murong Feng away, but he still didn't push it......
saw the wrist-thick spear roaring and thudding in front of Murong Feng's feet, and the splashed snowflakes directly touched her, but she didn't even blink her eyelids, and even spat disdainfully.
"Gollum!" The trolls behind her all swallowed their saliva, and the eyes that looked at her were different.
"Whew! Oh! Oh! "Hear a strange and provocative cry in the Viku camp.
Murong Feng sneered, pulled out the spear inserted in front of him and threw it back directly!
As soon as the spear left his hand, it was like a cannonball, and in an instant, a sonic boom exploded, plowing a ravine in the snow and reaching the wall of the Viku camp.
Immediately, a loud bang was heard, and the camp wall made of huge stones was directly blasted into a large hole, and the splattered rubble swept away a large group of people. But the spear continued to castrate, and it swept through the entire camp of the Viku and plunged headlong into the stone wall on the other side to the end!
There was silence between heaven and earth, except for the faint sound of the wind.
Murong Feng stepped forward and raised his arms and shouted: "Whoa~ quack!! β
The trolls reacted immediately, and immediately let out a strange cry with excitement on their faces: "Quack!! β
On the other hand, the Viku camp was full of mourning, and the uninjured Viku were silent one by one.
"Monster...... Monster...... How could those blueskins have such monsters! Ingvar stared at the camp wall pierced by a spear with a frightened expression, and felt that his three views had been greatly impacted.
"This guy must be the legendary Divine Blood Warrior!" A slightly knowledgeable Viku man immediately panicked: "Legend has it that these god-blood warriors are all strong ones in a million, and then drink the blood of the gods to withstand the backlash!" Monsters like the Great Lord are simply not something we can deal with, so let's get out of here! β
"Withdraw?" Ingval said with a hideous face: "We just retreated like this, do you want His Majesty the King to take my head and feed the Ancestral Dragon?" β
Several henchmen immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to say more.
Ingval looked at the chaotic camp, and then at the panicked soldiers, his face changed for a while, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Send a messenger to Wodron to ask for help immediately, and ask Skady to send a few Ancestral Dragons over quickly." β
Several henchmen looked at each other for a moment, because they knew very well that Ingval and the dragoon lord had been at odds for a long time, even if they went north to raid.
Unexpectedly, in order to survive, Ingval would take the initiative to ask the other party for help.
"Great Lord, what should we do if the Dragoon Lord mainly ignores our pleas for help?" One henchman asked.
Ingval smiled coldly and said, "Then we have a reason to retreat, and when the time comes, we will go to Your Majesty to sue him for death, and Your Majesty will only fight fifty boards each and will not use my head to appease the dissatisfaction of the other lords." β
"High, really high!" The henchman immediately slapped himself on the back.
After sending the messenger for help, Ingvar looked at the group of blue-skinned trolls outside the camp with a frightened face, and said ruthlessly: "Even if you want to withdraw, you have to take a few heads back to pay for it, and order it to go down, the wine and meat are full, and go out of the south gate in the afternoon to assemble, I don't believe that these mud-legged people dare to use their flesh and blood to block our cavalry charge!" β
