Kanter looked left and right, but did not find the shadow of the giant team, presumably still waiting for the next instructions from William, the commander-in-chief of the legion. Instead of seeing the giants that Kanter wanted to see most, he did see the flag of Thorn's team.

The Thernians are a separate people living north of the Wall, with the exception of the Free Folk and the Giant Tribe.

They have the last ancestral bloodline, and their main language is archaic, and most people can only speak one or two words of the lingua franca. The leaders of the Seons were called Magna, and they saw Magna as a god, not just a leader. Today, there are two Thorn combat squads in the New Legion, also known as the Berserker Squad.

According to what Kanter had observed in the past few days, the Sean people had a high sense of civilization, and the quality of this group of soldiers was much higher than average compared to the free people in the army, who also came from outside the fortress, and it is said that their life outside the fortress was closer to that of the people of the Seven Kingdoms south of the Great Wall, because they had laws and lords.

The Thorns are berserk warriors, but because they treat Magna as a god, they are absolutely obedient to orders and have a much higher fighting discipline than other wildlings.

They were generally better equipped than the wildlings, including bronze helmets, axes made of bronze or stone tools, short spears in the shape of leaves at the tip, leather shirts sewn with bronze flakes, and rudimentary leather shields with copper edges.

Kante stood under the banner of the New People's Legion, watching the battlefield anxiously.

There was a sound of footsteps in his ears, and when he turned his head, he realized that it was William who had come out of the tent at some point, and several guards were guarding him in the middle, for fear that a stray arrow would hit his own commander and commander from somewhere.

Although such a probability is one in ten thousand, Kante can understand it very well when he joins the army.

If the commander of one side of the battlefield is killed, then the soldiers of their own side will have little fighting spirit to speak of.

"Commander, why did you come out?"

"The Sentinels have almost figured out the number of incoming enemies, and it's time to come out and take a look. William's eyes were silent, and he couldn't see a trace of expression on his face as he watched the firelight staggered in the cone-shaped area in front of the hill.

Kante was shocked and hurriedly asked, "How?"

William sighed, his gaze deepened, "The advance army is 10,000, which is the enemy army we meet now. ”

"What's next?"

"Yes, it's estimated that there are no less than 30,000. ”

Hiss ~ so much?

Kante gasped.

William turned his head to look at his army and said, "Not all of them are coming at us, but you have to write a war report back tomorrow anyway, so you can mention this matter as well, and let the adults of White Harbor prepare to reinforce Horwood Castle." ”

Kante nodded after a long silence, and then said, "So, you are very sure about our battle tonight?"

William's meticulous face grinned ugly, and he turned to Kante and said meaningfully: "The victory of the New People's Army is not just a slogan. ”

Kante pondered William's words, his eyes looking in the direction of the battlefield he had been paying attention to.

The brave killing of the Sean people had an effect, at least the soldiers of the New People's Legion did not lose their battlefield discipline in the first large-scale battle, as long as the recruits had these two elements, it was not impossible for them to become a strong army in time.

The two sides are strangling very hard, if people melt into the battlefield, if you don't work hard, people will kill you.

It was only then that Kanter understood the difficulty of Essos, two of every three Essos soldiers were armed with oak shields and scimitars to defend themselves, while the other was armed with spears to take charge of the main attack, and Kanter observed that the Essos spearmen in charge of the main attack were often taller than the other two, and the spears in their hands wielded long thorns or slashes, which were very sharp.

Like the snake letter of a poisonous snake, it continues to inflict huge damage on the soldiers of the New People's Legion.

Moreover, unlike the ranged soldiers of Westeros, these Essos do not seem to like to use bows and crossbows, although the enemy army is also equipped with many archers, but the shuttle dart gun is their real long-range weapon, Kanter saw with his own eyes that the captain of a Thorn squad was stabbed by four pike darts at the same time, a cavalry squad that marched with these berserker warriors, and the war horse was also hit by the pike dart, and they fell to the ground with a bang.

According to the normal logic of the battlefield, this means that the area is covered by strong enemy firepower, and the soldiers should move forward in a roundabout or more rhythmic defense, but the team of Thorns was red-eyed, and the captain was hit by the shuttle, and his squad of soldiers rushed over like crazy, desperately protecting their captain, and at the same time, the surrounding Essos gathered more and more, shouting and screaming in the direction of Captain Thorn's fall, it is estimated that it will not take long for the entire Thorn Berserker squad to be finished.

Kanter looked at the commander William beside him, this guy also saw this scene, his eyes stared in that direction without blinking, but he didn't seem to let the herald send a reinforcement army to attack and help, and he was really a commander with an iron heart, even if he saw that the entire powerful Thorn team was all killed, he was unwilling to easily break his tactics.

The noisy battlefield, the miserable howl echoed in the wilderness, Kanter held his face, was silent for a long time, and the eyes of the Sehn team were almost wiped out, and finally couldn't help but say: "Commander, really don't you want to save it?"

"Save, but not me. ”

At this moment, on the east side of the battlefield, the vanguard of the New People's Legion walked out of the dark and dark deep forest, and once again returned to the wilderness where it was issued.

This army did not light a single torch, marched silently in the night, and even its footsteps seemed to be rendered silently by the quiet night, like a stealthy earth dragon.

Walking out of the deep forest, the soldiers of this New People's Legion soon found a vast world of flames in the middle of the wilderness not far away.

The sound of shouting and killing came from afar.

Quickly motivate these soldiers who march by default in the dark.

In the faint moonlight, Tormund smiled slightly, looking far to the northwest.

—————

He lightly bumped the big green horse, and the big green horse neighed and rushed towards the sequence where the first combat battalion was located, his war horse spun in front of the first combat battalion, and then quickly rushed towards the distant fire like a moth to a fire.

At the same time, hundreds of cavalry followed his shadow, following from the outskirts of the forest, flanking and smashing into the battlefield.

The black cavalry, with the help of the original fire of the battlefield, was like a ghost in the darkness, roaring angrily, urging the war horse under the crotch, holding a spear and brandishing its huge flow hammer to rush into the enemy formation.

The cavalry split into three charges, and in the gap between each strand were groups of lightly armed crossbow teams, carrying crossbow arrows and rushing forward.

Dense crossbow arrows were fired into the battlefield, and the armor-piercing cone-like crossbow arrows quickly opened a huge gap for the cavalry charge, and the Essosians in the battle shouted and shouted for the rear army to fill the vacancy in the east, thinking that this was just a detachment drawn from the opponent's defensive array to attack the cavalry on a detour.

However, they soon noticed that something was wrong, and the strong cavalry, with the skilful cooperation of the crossbowmen, quickly tore a hole in the flank, and the Essos found that behind these cavalry, there was a faintly arranged and numerous infantry regiment pressing down on them.
