Chapter 220: The Bear Goblin Tribe
Jovic is a graduate of a military academy and understands that the bandits are exerting mental pressure and trying to drag down the will and physical strength of the logistics team, so he keeps letting his subordinates run, shouting to boost morale.
The harassment tactics of the bandits continued, but they were of no point in the face of the militia, which had strengthened their vigilance and defenses, except for the occasional hapless man or two who were stabbed with a gun, and for half a day, no new deaths increased.
Jovic rode triumphantly on the pure white Orleans Highland horses, and walked along the logistics with ten cavalry guards, not so much patrolling as enjoying the envious and jealous gazes of the militia.
"That's the kind of sight, jealous of me, you pariahs!" Jovic was secretly refreshed, and then waved his whip and explained in a high-spirited manner, "The bandits will not let this stalemate continue, they should launch a powerful offensive to achieve the goal of fatigue tactics"
"Sir, what are we going to do?" asked a guard playfully, giving the chief time to behave.
"Herald, tell the soldiers to prepare to charge, and if they dare to come, give them a head-on blow. Jovic began to mobilize before the battle, "Don't be afraid, the enemy is just a rabble, and they can't stop our iron hooves." ”
"One bandit's head for five Jindelan, soldiers, fight desperately for military merit and bounty!"
When the soldiers, who had not had much spirit, heard the reward, they immediately raised their spirits and shouted excitedly, the cavalry infantry, in their opinion this will be a massacre.
Jovic smiled proudly, how can I stimulate the soldiers' fighting spirit, Uncle Rocker taught him earlier, gold coins and future, isn't this what the soldiers are for!
"A nobleman is a nobleman. No matter how scummy the character is, any one of them is more knowledgeable than us civilians!" a few militiamen muttered, looking enviously at Jovic on his horse, and as for Downton, he was completely ignored.
"That's the gap in education. Homer saw Downton silent. Take the opportunity to teach, "The education of the aristocratic class is much wider than that of the commoners, which leads to the knowledge reserve, vision, quality, etc., which is generally superior to the commoners, to be honest, if you don't get the magic book, even if you have achievements in the future, you will only be a businessman with a small fortune, or hang a noble title." ”
"I understand!" Downton wouldn't have been a postman if he hadn't learned some words from his mother. Like any other teenager, he worked as a miner or as an apprentice in the city, and then spent his life working for a pitiful salary that he couldn't even support his family.
Downton Weishenme was appreciated by the previous clerk, and it wasn't that his sister had to bring him some books every summer and teach him some lessons he had learned, so that he could talk a lot more than other country boys, otherwise how could he stand out and become the postman?
"It's so hard to learn, but it's easier to cut people. Hu Tao thought of the stern Homer. I had a headache, and even the sugar cubes in my mouth felt a lot more bitter.
"Good attitude. That's why I decided to give you a reading list, which the first Tudor kings praised. ”
Before Homer could finish speaking, the forest on the right suddenly shouted to kill, and a group of bandits rushed out and fired their guns at the logistics team.
"When did the bear goblins start messing with Tyson?"
Campana thought he must have been dazzled, nearly a hundred adult bear goblins. This means that there is at least a 600-strong goblin tribe behind them, and such a force will never wander with bandits like Tyson.
Downton had never seen a bear goblin so closely.
They are generally close to two meters tall, with broad waists and broad shoulders, and knotted muscles. They don't look malnourished at all, because they are the strongest goblin-like creatures, they are good at throwing guns, they are used to hunting, and even some wurms are the prey they dare to challenge.
"It's ugly!" Hu Tao pouted and picked up his tomahawk.
Bears goblins are covered in green body hair, very thick, and emit a foul smell, they are dressed in simple leather armor made of animal skins, carrying a mace made of rusty nails made of thick wooden sticks, and with tribal totem runes painted on their faces, they are full of indigenous taste.
In the cognition of the Western Earth Continent, a bear goblin can fight five ordinary human soldiers, so the faces of the cavalry are a little ugly.
"What are you afraid of, we are cavalry, crush them!" Jovic, who had never suffered a loss, was full of fighting spirit, and in his opinion, those bear goblins were military merits, so he drew his scimitar, waved it forward, and launched a charge.
Campana's private soldiers, who had already followed the 6th Brigade, saw the enemy appear, and without the orders of their master, immediately whipped the militia with their scabbards and told them to follow the charge.
This is a customary measure to prevent the soldiers from being cowardly, and if they were replaced by regular troops, the charge would be too slow, and the overseers would have already cut directly with their knives.
"Quasimodo, protect them!" Downton commanded, turned over and jumped on a lean pack horse, whipped the horse's ass with the back of his saber, and began to sprint.
Downton is not afraid of fighting, but he will not rush to the front stupidly, and even if Jovic pursues it, he can use the pack horse under his crotch to run fast.
Most of the bear goblins' throwing spears missed, and even if they did, they couldn't pierce the armor of the cavalry.
The cavalry grew emboldened by the sight of the bears' goblins' rudimentary equipment and poor attacks, especially when they were immediately routed and hurried back into the woods, their shouts became louder and quickened.
Catch up, cut down those lagging enemies, grab the first rank, the cavalry is very good at picking up leaks, if you run slowly, there will be no soup.
Looking at the suddenly excited cavalry, Downton was startled, and thought that their conscience had been discovered.
"Kill it, brothers!" Jovic rushed past a bear goblin, slashing its mace and leaving a scar on its body.
Blood spilled on the ground and soon penetrated.
There are only a dozen bear goblins left in the field of vision, and the cavalry whips the war horses fiercely with scimitars, not saving horsepower at all, in their opinion, more than a hundred cavalry against a dozen infantry, it is a completely one-sided battle, and they are sorry for themselves if they don't grab the head.
"Huh?" Downton had thought that the bear goblins had been defeated, but as they retreated to the edge of the forest, they immediately slowed down, which was a bit counterintuitive.
"Rush, kill them. "The militiamen of the Sixth Brigade saw that there was no danger and did not mind a pursuit.
"It's not quite right, everyone be careful!" Downton yelled and reminded.
"What kind of trap can there be on the other side of the bear goblin who is known for being stupid?"
"Cowards get out of here, this is the battlefield of warriors!"
Someone who didn't like Downton immediately ridiculed him.
A dozen backward bear goblins gathered together and continued to retreat into the forest.
The cavalrymen didn't want to lose their military exploits, so they dismounted and chased after them, but these veterans were accustomed to stealing and playing tricks, and they all wanted to take advantage, shouting for others to rush up and fight, and they were cheering behind.
In this stalemate, no one noticed that the bear goblins had retreated about a hundred meters into the forest, and Campana could no longer see them.
The militia also came in, and the momentum was like a rainbow.
"Am I suspicious, or is the enemy luring the enemy deeper?" Downton asked Homer, "There are only a dozen bear goblins left alone, even if the previous reinforcements are returned, we can calmly withdraw, right?"
"No, we rushed in long enough time for the enemy to ambush. ”
As soon as Homer finished speaking, there were sudden screams behind him.
Downton looked back and saw more than twenty werewolf bandits, led by the lone wolf Romario, jumping down from the trees, blocking the retreat of the militia, brandishing their scimitars, slashing at them.
The fleeing bear goblins immediately launched a counter-charge.
"Damn, it's in an ambush. ”
"Evacuate!"
"It's Davis the Bandit!"
Screams of terror instantly filled the sky above the redwood forest.
The cavalry wanted to retreat, but the dozen or so besieged bear goblins just now began to fight back fiercely, successfully holding them back.
Flanked from both sides, the cavalry and the 6th Brigade were in big trouble.
How could Jovic have ever thought that the bear goblins, who had always been simple-minded, would actually play tactics? In addition, his mind was full of military merits, and he felt that a dozen backward bear goblins were not a threat, so he was led in and formed the current situation.
The battle situation was out of control, no matter how much Jovic shouted, he couldn't regroup, the veteran oilboys didn't listen to him at all, they all ran wildly, as long as they got out of the woods and rode on their horses, they would be safe.
There are so many militiamen, all of them are cannon fodder, no matter how stupid the bear goblins are, they know how to pick soft persimmons and pinch them, and the cavalry are all this kind of luck in their hearts.
As a native of the hills, the bear goblin has long been accustomed to the terrain here, and when he charges, the mercury is as smooth as the ground, and the roar in his throat is constantly destroying the hearts of his enemies.
"Damn it, kill it!" Downton drew his saber and sword, turned and sprinted, "Homer, unleash the ghouls and abomination warriors!"
Homer disobeyed the order for the first time, "Do you want to be a target?"
"Do you just watch those militiamen die?" Downton couldn't bear it, most of the militia had not even received simple military training, and in the face of this group of werewolf bandits, they were as powerless as lambs, all of them were cut down in the escape, and the smell of blood immediately permeated the end of the nose.
"A bunch of scum, it's not a pity to die. "If it was understood by the other brigades, Homer wouldn't mind helping, but the sixth brigade would forget it.
Downton shook his hand and threw the Order Sword at a werewolf more than ten meters away.
The werewolf swung his sword to block, knocked the long sword flying, and was about to sprint, when a flower appeared in front of him, the human had already appeared in front of him.
Triple Star in Heaven!
The tip of the saber burst out with three cross-shaped blades of light and slashed at the werewolf, one of which slashed through its head, cutting through the scar of the cross, killing him directly.
"It's so simple?" Downton was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that cutting the militia was as easy to kill as a fierce werewolf chopping melons and vegetables.
"They're not magicians, they're just ordinary bandits. Homer reminds, "Run, the boar man has his sights on you!" (To be continued......)
