Chapter 56: The Goblins Attack

At night, the dwarven warriors each carry a torch. Following the arrangement of the Bard Patriarch, they were divided into several squads, standing in different directions, and were already in a state of readiness.

The Bard patriarch was very satisfied with his arrangement, although after a few battles, he had lost nearly half of the dwarven warriors, but Bard believed that the tribe would be able to survive tonight's battle, and the casualties would definitely be very low.

Because of that human named Ye Mu, he has a strength similar to his own!

Bud is at the peak of his combat power on the battlefield of the goblin attack, although the bombs thrown by the goblins are full of power, but now that there is one more peak combat power on the dwarven side, then the upcoming battlefield situation will definitely be greatly affected.

Thinking of Ye Mu, Bard noticed that there was no trace of Ye Mu around, and Bud remembered that he had seen Ye Mu when he was assembled.

Bud was concerned about Ye Mu's whereabouts, and hurriedly asked the assistant beside him: "Diga, where has our human friend Ye Mu gone?"

"He said he was going to deal with the goblin troops in his own way, and then he ran to prepare for the battle, telling us to leave him alone. Diga said truthfully.

Bard nodded, not asking any more questions. He had no doubt about Ye Mu's reasons for explaining to Diga, and he would not think that Ye Mu was retreating from battle, because they and Ye Mu were now grasshoppers on the same string!

As an outsider, Ye Mu, without the leadership of the dwarf, would not have been able to leave the Devouring Mountain Range, and if he had to leave, he would even be scattered in the mountains and forests. Only in this way did they dare to bring Ye Mu directly into the village, and Bard trusted Ye Mu for no reason, because they had the means to check and balance Ye Mu.

At this time, Ye Mu was observing the environment in the mountains and forests.

Under Nano's explanation, Ye Mu learned that every time the goblins attacked, they attacked the village from this direction, which means that the goblin troops would pass through this mountain forest every time.

The first thing Ye Mu thought of was to set a trap here, so that those ferocious goblins could have a good drink.

However, Ye Mu had been learning about the situation from Nano before, and now that he came here alone, he didn't have the time and ability to set a useful trap.

What made Ye Mu wonder was that the dwarf tribe had been fighting with goblins for several days, and they had never thought of setting traps or ambushes. In Bard's words, "I'm going to defend head-on, and I won't let the goblins break through our defenses!"

I used to know from books that dwarves are simple-minded and never pay attention to strategy even when facing enemies. Now Ye Mu compares with reality, and what he said in the book is very right.

But it's understandable to think about it, otherwise you have to ask Ye Mu for help. Since he can't use the trap for the time being, Ye Mu has other countermeasures in his heart, which can definitely play a key role in tonight's battle.

Regarding the first step of countermeasures, Ye Mu first climbed a giant tree.

......

"Goblins are coming!"

The dwarven warriors who stayed on the watchtower saw the figure of the black pressure from a distance, and immediately began to ring the bell to give the alarm.

Receiving the alarm, the dwarven warriors, who had long been ready to go, under the leadership of the Bard chief, rushed towards the goblin troops marching out of the mountain forest.

Dwarvens have poor night vision, so the dwarven warriors each carry a torch and an iron sword, an axe, and even a heavy shield in the other. The indomitable momentum of more than seventy dwarven warriors is bound to destroy all the goblins that will invade in the future.

In fact, it was not the dwarves who first discovered the attack of the goblins, but Ye Mu.

Ye Mu stayed on a giant tree, lying quietly in the place hidden by the branches and leaves, looking through the gap at the very dense black shadows below, each of which had a pair of green eyes.

With green eyes and petite and dense black shadows, Ye Mu was sure that they were goblin troops.

Faintly, Ye Mu saw that behind the goblin troops, there were several things like catapults. However, Ye Mu was not sure what it was, and he was also afraid of startling the snake, so Ye Mu still stood still.

Back in the present, the melee forces in front of the goblins have been engaged with the dwarven warriors.

Behind the dwarven warriors bloomed all kinds of fighting energy, dwarves can cultivate fighting energy, coupled with a strong body, can wield the ultimate combat power.

Although the melee goblins are about the same size as the dwarves, the equipment gap between the two sides is also very different, and the one-on-one melee goblins are not the opponent of the dwarven warriors at all.

However, the number of melee goblins is several times that of the dwarven warriors, and with their agile speed and numbers, they firmly hold the dwarven warriors in their footsteps and wear down the physical strength of the dwarven warriors.

"Woo——!"

With a trumpet, the melee goblins suddenly retreated in a frenzy.

"Kill!" the dwarven warriors shouted, and as they tried to catch up, they were greeted by a rain of arrows.

It was a small wooden feather arrow, and it turned out that the melee goblins and the dwarven warriors had a short battle, but they only had a delaying effect, in order to prepare them for the goblin archers behind.

Trumpeter feathered arrows can't pierce the steely muscles of the dwarven warriors, and as long as the dwarven warriors protect their eyes, the rain of arrows can't really hurt them. However, the dense rain of arrows still stopped the dwarven warriors from advancing.

"Woo——!"

The horn sounded again from the rear of the goblin troops, and the rain of arrows stopped, but five goblin bombs were dropped from the sky.

Goblins know how to make gunpowder, and they have multiplied to make bombs, and they are powerful bombs.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" ......

Five bombs went down, and the group of dwarven warriors who were chasing the melee goblins suddenly became a mess.

Many of the dwarves who were close to the bombs had their arms or legs broken, and even the dwarven warriors with heavy shields were blown away and suffered a lot of injuries.

In the dark of the mountains and forests, Ye Mu, who had been observing the battle situation, couldn't help but scold in his heart at this moment: "The dwarves, a group of nerds, know that the goblins have bombs, and they still choose to charge intensively, isn't this just looking for bombs?"

Ye Mu listened to Nami's narration, and every time the dwarf attacked, he would change his combat method. However, in Ye Mu's mind, there are only a few types of goblins in total, and the combat methods are nothing more than that.

It's just that the dwarves don't have enough brains and only know how to charge blindly, so even if they have the advantage in strength, they will win in the end. From Nami's narrative, the first few battles were just that.

"There are casualties among the dwarves, it's time for me to take action!" Ye Mu's body moved casually, turning into a shadow and burrowing out of the shadows.

Ye Mu didn't make the first move, because he needed to observe it with his own eyes before he could combine the strategy in his heart to carry out actual actions. In addition, Ye Mu felt that only when the dwarf's side was injured and he appeared as a surprise soldier again, he would definitely get more gratitude and prestige afterwards.

The dwarven warriors each held a torch that illuminated one side of the battlefield.

Bard, who is also in the battlefield, catches up with a melee goblin and chops off the goblin's head. When he turned around, he saw the tragic situation on the dwarf's side, and his eyes suddenly rolled, and his heart was unhappy for a while.

But as the patriarch, Bard knew he couldn't afford to lose his fighting spirit. He was bound to take a part of the dwarven warriors and rush to the rear of the dwarves first, destroying the goblins' bow and throwing troops. In this way, it is only a matter of time before they crush the goblin forces.

In the first few battles, Bard had fought off the attacking goblin forces in this way, but each time it had to pay a terrible price.

With a heavy heart, Bard shouted and rushed: "Good boys of my tribe, charge with me!"

When the battle situation was at a disadvantage, Bard shouted, which immediately aroused the fighting spirit of the dwarven warriors. More than 20 fighters around Bard accelerated their advance with Bard for a while, in order to rush into the enemy's rear as soon as possible.

Behind the goblins, the throwing stands of the five throwing carts were slowly lowered by several goblins, ready to place a new bomb and throw it again.

Each cart has two goblins in charge, and just as the first cart is reloading, a shadow suddenly appears behind the goblin that lifted the bomb.

"Who?" the goblin was sensible, dropping the bomb and turning to drink.

"I can actually speak human language!" Ye Mu's heart flashed with a thought, and the giant sword in his hand turned into a knock, directly knocking the goblin unconscious.

"Quack......" The other goblin was terrified, and a bunch of goblin words came out of his mouth.

Ye Mu didn't even look at it, he directly cut the other goblin into two pieces, and then leaned towards the throwing cart below.
