Chen Xiao listened to Odoru's intelligence.

As for the location of the cottage of the Ghost Ridge bandits, the number of bandits, the surname of the leader, and the strength of the bandits, Odoru found out clearly.

Half of the outpost bandits were wiped out, and three of their scouts were killed.

They had already realized that Chen Xiao's group of people were targeting them and had taken precautions, so these bandits who were familiar with the terrain of the Ghost Ghost Ridge took advantage of the time and place to kill the scout team members, and three members of the team had already died on the Ghost Ridge.

Chen Xiao looked at the topographic map of the Ghost Ridge drawn by Odoru and fell into deep thought.

He was thinking about how to capture the Ghost Ridge.

Burning the mountain with fire is the most convenient and quick means, but it cannot have the effect of training troops.

If real knives and guns go into battle, these recruits will inevitably be vulnerable and become the souls of these bandits.

He called on the four squad leaders, including Lux and Wu Tong, and began to implement his tactical ideas.

In addition to the standard halberd and sword, each guard is equipped with a crossbow arrow.

A single-shot crossbow bolt that needs to be loaded with an iron fork to pull the bowstring open for each shot. So the crossbow arrow was a more bulky weapon than the bow and arrow in this era.

Suitable only for short-range shooting.

The four squads marched into the Ghost Ridge in a barrel shape, and with Odoru's intelligence, they always followed the prescribed route and proceeded in an orderly manner.

Joanda and his men hid in the iron woods, watching through the gaps in the pine trees to see the enemy's movements.

Seeing these enemies slowly advancing into their lair with loaded crossbow arrows like iron buckets, Joanda felt a pang of pain.

Who the hell are these fucking bastards, and he feels like he can't do anything about it.

The soldiers had neither family insignia nor flags, and unlike the nearby lords, he did not think he had offended any of them.

He whistled, and all his men immediately drew their weapons, and the first to charge, raising their shields, rushed out of the iron grove with a roar.

Chen Xiao was surrounded by the guards, with Lux and Leon guarding the left and right, and the four squad leaders led their own teams.

Seeing a bandit rushing out of the woods with a house in his hand, Chen Xiao immediately ordered.

"Shoot!"

The trigger was pulled, and the crossbow arrow was immediately discharged, shooting into the chest of the bandit who rushed out first, and a wave of arrows rained out, and the bandit who rushed out had already fallen in a wave before he could get close and swing a sword.

Seeing this, Joanda immediately jumped out of the ambush position.

Without the threat of crossbow arrows, the next step would be a white-knuckle fight, and Joanda didn't think his battle-hardened men would be weaker than these eggless soldiers.

"Kill!" Chouanda roared, leading the way, and his men threw down their heavy shields and shouted with their knives raised.

However, before he could take two steps, the soldiers in the first row took two steps back, and another row of soldiers took two steps forward, raised their crossbow arrows, which had already been loaded, and sent him another rain of arrows.

"!" Joanda was suddenly half frightened, and swung his weapon to sweep away the rain of arrows, as for his men, many of them were shot by the sudden rain of arrows, and they lay down inexplicably.

Dodging the dense rain of arrows, Joanda also stuck two arrows in his body, but fortunately it was not a critical position, and no one could die.

He hid behind an iron tree, his face as black as the bark of an iron tree.

"It's so insidious..."Joanda clinged to the iron tree, and his heart palpitated.

He looked at his men who had fallen to the ground, and then at his men who were hiding behind the iron tree like him, and his face was sad and angry.

No one could have imagined that those enemies would come up with such a despicable and shameless tactic and come up with a two-stage shot.

Which bastard came up with it?

Joanda just wanted to abuse the bastard who came up with this attack tactic a thousand times.

No one would have thought that a bulky crossbow bolt would have this kind of use of two-stage bursts.

The second burst of fire caught the bandits off guard, and the effect was better than expected.

Lux and the others were also stunned when they saw this result.

The bandits entrenched in the Ghost Ridge are so vulnerable?

Or is Chen Xiao's tactics too insidious, and those bandits didn't expect it?

"What are you doing here!Draw your sword!Attack!"

Chen Xiao roared, and the guards who were still shooting with crossbow arrows just now suddenly became agitated, pulled out the long sword and big knife at his waist, and rushed towards the bandits who were unable to form an army with a shout.

The guards in the second platoon had already loaded their crossbow arrows and aimed them at the enemy in front of them, escorting their comrades who rushed forward to kill the enemy.

This tactic, which protects the lives of soldiers as much as possible, is the safest way for Chen Xiao to think of.

The four captains took the lead, drew their weapons and rushed out, the strength of the bronze warriors was much stronger than these bandits, and the four of them were extremely brave, and directly beat those bandits to cry wolf and flee into the iron forest.

Chen Xiao couldn't help frowning when he saw this.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase!" he ordered.

Seeing Chen Xiao's unpredictable tactics, and now beating the bandits entrenched in the Ghost Ridge to the ground, all the guards were like chicken blood at this time, screaming with excitement, and they were already red-eyed.

As soon as Wu Tong cut off the head of a bandit, he heard Chen Xiao's order and immediately shouted: "Defend back!

He grabbed the guards who were about to chase him into the iron grove and threw them behind.

As the four captains stopped drinking, those guards quickly retreated and put on the cylindrical formation at the beginning.

Seeing this, Qiao Anda, who originally wanted to lure the enemy deeper, couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of old blood.

He cursed in his heart.

The bastards who command the soldiers are so cautious and careful.

He didn't dare to attack rashly, so he took his men back to the cottage, with the terrain of the cottage being easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as he held the exit, those soldiers could not do anything about them.

In the deep iron forest, except for the bandits who fell to the ground and bled incessantly, there was no sound, and it seemed very secretive.

When the two sides fought just now, Chen Xiao injured a few people on his side, none of them died, and there were dozens of bandits eliminated.

The victory in the first battle made these recruits cheer excitedly, as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they looked at Chen Xiao's gaze with admiration and awe.

admired Chen Xiao's tactics.

"Keep going. Chen Xiao smiled slightly, "The target - the bandit village in the Ghost Mountains." ”

Leon slung the giant axe on his shoulder and grinned, revealing a pair of large tiger teeth, "My lord, with your style of fighting, I think the enemy will vomit blood in frustration." ”

These bandits are all outlaws who lick blood from their knives, and if they are really slashed and killed, these new recruits who have not experienced any fighting and bloody battles will be defeated as soon as possible.

But Chen Xiao's extremely cautious, obscene, and insidious tactics reversed the result, and instead beat these bandits, Leon had to write a word of obedience.

Not to mention others, Chen Xiao, who was praised as a "ghost talent" by "Mainland Experience", really deserves to have an unpredictable talent.

"This is just the beginning, and we need to run in slowly. We're not in a hurry. He looked at the guards around him, and except for a few who seemed to be excited, many of them were pale, and they were not comfortable with the first killing.

These take time and experience to adjust.
