Chapter 5: Terran Villages
Forget it, let's hire some soldiers first, expensive is expensive, but safety is the most important.
Thinking of this, he clicked on the mercenary station.
Yifei, who was deeply hit by those "lazy" workers, decided to improve the defense of the lower territory first, as for the internal affairs, so be it, let's talk about the situation later.
As his attention changed, the interface in front of him changed, and the second row of patterns appeared in front of him.
Slaves, slave overseers, Arab archers, mounted archers.......
The patterns of all the soldiers available for recruitment in the mercenary house appear in front of you.
He immediately clicked on the Arab archer in the interface, and suddenly a simple introduction popped up in front of him again.
Arab Archers: Standard ranged attack units. Lacks armor, but has the same fast movement speed as the archers, has a long range, but has almost zero melee ability. The Arab Archers have a long range and are very effective against units with no armor, but they are more difficult against heavily armored units. Arab archers can also use braziers to increase ranged damage or ignite asphalt traps. Arab archers also have a special skill: volleys.
Recruitment price: 18 gold per person.
Ignoring those who introduced him, he chose to recruit 50 Arab archers.
Fifty Arab archers suddenly ran out of the mercenary station, dressed in red robes and white skirts, with an iron pointed helmet on their heads, a longbow in their hands, and a bag of quivers around their waists.
……
Time passed slowly, the day passed, and the night fell.
In just one day, he now has the lord of a fortified castle, and the number of soldiers under his command has reached more than 100.
Look at the archers and crossbowmen standing guard on the watchtower, the crusader swordsmen beside them, and the soldiers standing at the city gates...... He felt very relieved, so he gave orders to the crusader swordsman beside him, and then went to the bedroom on the third floor!
After a busy day, he lay in that soft place, and as soon as his mood relaxed, he fell into a sweet dream, and he slept together in the dream
At this time, the crops outside the city were growing there with a supernatural growth law, and the shacks by the city wall occasionally heard the cries of children and the shouting and scolding of big men, and more of the sound of yin and yang.
……
A bright moon hung in the sky, and only the few stars around her danced for her. The dark earth echoes the bright moonlight, and the people on the ground are moving fast!
"Da Da Da ......"
The sound of horses' hooves came from the front of everyone, and the dark forest suddenly lit up with a flickering light, as if there was still a certain pattern.
Among the people who were marching quickly, one of them suddenly raised his hand, and the people who were marching suddenly stopped and stood there quietly, and the whole night sky suddenly seemed even quieter!
A figure rushed out of the night, and quickly came to everyone, and his crotch was riding a wild boar, and the two sharp fangs emitted a faint white light in the moonlight, which was creepy and chilling.
But he and the feathered arrows on his body let everyone know that something was wrong!
"Rose, what's going on up ahead?" Among the people who stopped, a figure suddenly walked out and shouted softly.
"Patriarch, a Terran village has been found in the forest not far ahead!"
"Terran villages? Wouldn't you just dispose of a Terran village? This little thing has to be reported back! ”
"Patriarch, we can't attack that village, they have already built the city walls, and there is a group of strong archers guarding it......"
"Rubbish, take me to see it!"
Is this the Terran village?
After a while, Karl and the warriors of the tribe followed Rose over a small hill and saw the Terran village he was talking about.
Looking at the tall city wall in the distance, as well as the watchtower more than 20 meters high, Carlton was stunned!
This is obviously a small fortress of the Terrans, how could Ross say that he is a village? Thinking of this, he was ready to ask Rose.
"Patriarch, please use this to see!" At this point, Rose suddenly spoke, and at the same time handed over a long cylindrical object.
"Rose, what is this?"
"Patriarch, this is an ancient alchemy prop, he can make people see far away......"
Ancient Alchemy Props!!
Hearing Rose's words, Carleton felt extremely interested, and hurriedly took what Rose had in his hand, and watched the small fortress in the distance rise according to the usage he said!
The Terran village in front of me was a little too strange, and when I looked at it from a distance, the walls made of huge stones and the towering watchtower were definitely a small fortress of the Terran Empire!
But there are so many houses outside the city that it looks like a village at first glance!
This should not be a military fortress, it may be the territory of some nobles in the human race, but this scale does not seem to be large, it should not be very strong, why can't the more than a hundred tribal warriors led by Ross attack it?
Hey, what are they doing?
Through the alchemy props in his hand, Karl found that there were corpses of tribal warriors everywhere outside the Terran fortress, and at this time, a group of human soldiers were desecrating their corpses, and the gate of the fortress was wide open.
They stabbed the corpses of each of the tribal warriors with their spears, and then a group of Terran farmers came over, picked up their weapons, and pulled away the corpses of the dead war beasts, and then, without knowing what kind of witchcraft was used, the corpses of the tribal warriors disappeared into thin air,.......
Damn, these abominable humans dare to tarnish the glory of the beast warriors, seeing this scene, Carlton was furious.
Blood debt needs blood to pay!
Karl returned the alchemy props in his hand to Rose on the side, and said with a gloomy face: "Pass my order, the whole army is ready to charge, I want them to go back to hell!" ”
"Huhuhu......"
Hearing his order, the tribal warriors behind him didn't say a word, and all stepped onto their mounts beside them, drawing their scimitars at their waists.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
A low roar rang out from the hills!
……
"Your Excellency Guard, there is a military information from the watchtower, and more than a thousand mobs have been found, do you want to inform the lord?" At the gate of the fortress, a spearman in heavy armor with two battle flags on his back was standing upright, and a soldier who was also wearing heavy armor and holding a spear ran up and asked respectfully.
"No need, it's just a mob, don't affect the rest of the adults, you go tell Tom them, let them go out of the city to cover the territory and enter the castle by name!"
"Yes, Sergeant Major!"
……
"Whoosh ......"
As the sound of horses' hooves approached, a rain of arrows flew down from the city wall and fell on the galloping figure, splashing countless blood splashes.
After each rain of arrows, some running figures fell to the ground.
"Ah~! Yes~! ......" wails sounded in the silence of the night, but disappeared in the blink of an eye!
Karl stood on the hill in the distance, looking at the castle in the distance, feeling the wind blowing around him, and a pride spread from his heart, but within a few minutes, his face suddenly became solemn.
Through the alchemy props in his hand, he could clearly see that the Terran archers standing on the city wall quickly shot the arrows in their hands, and as the arrows fell, a large number of tribal warriors fell from the war beasts.
Why are they not affected by the darkness, are they all marksmen?
Through the alchemy tools in his hand, Karl could see very clearly, and he was extremely surprised by the actions of the Terran archers on the city wall in the distance.
You must know that because of racial differences, the night vision ability of the human race is generally very weak, unless it is those sharpshooters who have mastered the Eagle Eye combat skills, they ignore the obstacles of the night.
But how did he know that what he was facing was not an ordinary Terran archer at all, but an archer produced by the system, they didn't have the so-called night blindness at all, as long as they entered their attack range, day and night were no different at all!
1、2、3… 15、16… 70。
70 Terran marksmen!!!
Carl watched and counted, and as time passed, his face slowly turned white!
At this time, the figures outside the city were rapidly decreasing, and some of them had already rushed close to the city gate, and black shadows flew out of their hands and flew towards the city wall.
"Whoosh Whoosh ......"
"Ping Pong ......" The sound of metal striking sounded.
Then a dazzling bronze light suddenly erupted in the dark night sky.
"Ah~~~"
A desolate scream rang out......
Bronze Swordsman! More than a dozen bronze swordsmen!
"Withdraw! Evacuate ......"
Seeing the light in the distance, Karl shouted loudly, by which point he realized that it was too late.
Outside the Terran fortress in the distance, there were no more tribal warriors in sight, only the humming of a group of war beasts could be heard.
A skirmish broke out, and in just ten minutes, the night sky was quiet again.
"Squeak ......"
The closed gates opened, and a group of soldiers and peasants came out of the gates, came to the corpses not far away, and cleaned up the battlefield again!
