Chapter 47: Making a big fuss

Unlike the elegance and calmness of ordinary elves, Ivo is an impatient, impulsive, hot-blooded elf, he is enthusiastic and cheerful, brave in battle, advocating offense is the best defense, if it were not for the fact that he is known to be from a pure-blooded elven aristocratic family, he is definitely an unquestionable pure-blood elf, I am afraid that he will be suspected by his fellow clans of being a human wearing an elven mask.

This time he led the team to attack Hammondal, and Ivo was reluctant to come for no other reason than because there were too many rules and regulations formulated by the Elf King in this battle.

But the elf king still insisted on sending him, saying that it was to let him hone and hone his character, so that he could be entrusted with important tasks in the future.

This made Ivo feel very aggrieved, he was just a little impulsive, is it necessary to let himself come to this ghost place to do some training?

In the last big war, I didn't hone myself, didn't I also fight countless victories?

The Elven King of Ivojue must have been overworked lately and was a little nervous.

Seeing that it was already starting to get dark, Ivo gave the order for the soldiers to prepare to go.

It's already very close to Harmondale, and I believe that with a little more speed, we can reach the outside of Harmondale by daybreak, and then we can attack this damn place in the open, and then hold on and wait for reinforcements, and if possible, try not to let the news get out.

However, at that time, even if the Erathia Empire could react, it would be too late, and the gate of time and space secretly established by the elves could be reused every fifteen days or so, which meant that the elves could send a wave of reinforcements every fifteen days. And those unprepared humans did not have the convenience of the time and space gates, and by the time they had gone to great lengths to open a way from the snow-blocked road, Hammondale had already been made into an iron wall by the elves.

What's more, the elven king's army is not hibernating in the forest, as soon as he receives the information that he has captured Hammondal, an elven army that has been secretly formed on the border and is ready to go will set off immediately, use various means to quickly clear the snow on the road, and rush to Hammondale from the main road to become Harmondale's resident legion.

No matter how fast Erathia's army is, it is definitely not faster than the elves.

With Ivo's orders, the whole army moved quickly.

The centaur soldier rose from the ground, shook off the snow that covered the entire cloak, put the piles of packed supplies on the ground, which were also covered by snowflakes, and carried them on his back, then covered them with his cloak, and lifted the spear with the blade wrapped in white cloth.

These natural cavalry were not only soldiers in battle, but also natural logisticians in the elven army, and their strong bodies could carry extremely heavy loads without much slowness as a result.

Putting down the goods is the vanguard, and carrying the goods is logistics, because of the existence of these centaur soldiers, the elves' army can appear on the battlefield extremely quickly without the support of the logistics troops, which is also an important reason why the elves' army is strong.

Among the low white tents beside the centaurs, one dwarf after another came out, because of the snow in the sky, the dwarves' thick beard soon turned into a white patch, and the dwarven soldiers who were very dissatisfied with this slapped the snow on their beards, while putting on their steel helmets on their heads, wearing heavy full-body steel armor, muttering something in their mouths, and then putting away the tents as quickly as possible, handing them over to the centaurs to carry, and finally lifting their tomahawks or battle bells, Move short legs and keep up with the team with difficulty.

The elves set up tents in shelter from the wind on the other side, and these elves did not care about the cold weather, because they lived on an icy island before they came to this continent, and such weather was too small for them.

The elves first carefully inspected and sorted out their equipment—beautiful and sturdy chain mail and helmets, lightweight elven longbows, and sharp elven scimitars—all of which were expensive, high-quality equipment, each of which could be sold for a good price in the market.

Then the elves quickly prepared to set off, ignoring the tent behind them, there were centaur soldiers, the elves didn't have to worry about such things, they just had to fight bravely on the battlefield, for a long time, it had been like this.

Unless the centaur soldiers die on the battlefield, the elves will do it themselves, which is tradition.

Ivo watched his soldiers busy, and once again made fun of the Elven King for making a bit of a fuss.

It's just a small Hammondal, and the intelligence shows that the defenders there are only two hundred men, and it's not a regular army, just the private army of the lord.

What's even more ridiculous is that these private soldiers are just farmers who have been recruited not long ago, and they don't know how to fight a war at all.

And the army he led was a full force of 1,000 people.

This mixed wing had five hundred centaur soldiers, three hundred dwarven warriors, one hundred and fifty elven archers, and fifty elven pegasus knights.

That's five times the strength of the other side!

Although according to the Elven King's plan, he left a team of two hundred people at the gate of time and space. But now he still has an army of 800 men in his hands, which is four times the strength of the other side.

These soldiers are also well-trained, battle-hardened professional soldiers.

The Centaur Soldiers are very good at fighting, they are very tall, powerful, and fast, as if they were born to fight, and they have a flying spear stunt, which always carries five short spears and one spear with them when fighting, and throws them from afar and close.

Dwarven warriors may not be tall, but they are naturally powerful, their heavy battle axes and hammers are as light as paper in their hands, and their endurance is quite amazing, and they are always tireless on the battlefield.

The horror of elven archers is well known on the mainland, these agile and skilled archers always like to haunt in the gloomy forest, using the elven longbow in their hands to send sharp arrows into the opponent's vital point from a strange angle, so that those who dare to invade the elven home one by one become the nourishment needed for the growth of trees.

Even after leaving the forest, the elven archers were undiminished, and when they formed a formation in the clearing, shooting one sharp arrow after another at a speed far faster than the other races, the impermeable and endless arrows falling from the sky like a torrential rain would make their opponents deeply understand the painful meaning of the word "rain of arrows" with their own bodies.

The Pegasus Knight is the perfect embodiment of elven force.

The silver pegasus horses ridden by the Pegasus Knights were found only in the forests of Eri and Turalone, and these winged horses were not only fast and slow, but also docile, making them ideal mounts.

Since the discovery of this pegasus, the elves have been keenly aware of its strategic value, and have begun to hunt and domesticate it on a large scale, firmly controlling it in their own hands. Today, on the continent of Erathia, this silver pegasus has become a strategic substance monopolized by the elves.

The selection of Pegasus Knights is very strict, requiring not only outstanding archery skills, but also excellent martial arts.

These samurai who can soar above the sky are a terrible nightmare for all ground troops on the battlefield, for enemies without air defense, they are very fond of flying low above each other's heads, and then use the elven scimitar in their hands to easily and happily slit each other's throats; As for the enemy with air defense, they are comfortable staying high in the sky, playing their opponents to death with accuracy and speed of fire far beyond the elven marksman.

Even if the opponent is also the air force, as long as it is not a perverted creature at the top of the biological chain such as dragons or angels, the Pegasus knights are also fearless with the speed of Pegasus, the powerful longbow and sharp scimitar in their hands.

The elven king of Ivojue really looked up to that little lord.

How could such a complete wing of infantry, cavalry, long-range fire, and air support be sent against a rabble of two hundred farmers?
