Chapter 260: Ambush vs. Sneak Attack
"You fools, I'm really by you!" Sidney whipped his whip in a camp, losing two teams of Rose Knights to make matters worse. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Won't you avoid them? Do you have to rush up and fight them? How dare you rush in with a team of dozens of horsemen? Do you let the pigs eat your heads?" Sidney reprimanded the chief knight who led the group.
The knight leader who led the team knelt on one knee and defended himself to Sidney with a slight grievance: "Your Excellency, it's not that we are too impulsive, it's really that those goblins are too obscene and obscene, and whenever we want to leave, they will taunt you in the back, and even use you to make up all kinds of obscene language, in order to protect your reputation, so those knights are desperate with them on impulse." ”
Sidney sighed softly, stepped forward to help the knight chief, and said to him with tears in his eyes: "Since we have joined the Rose Knights, we have done dirty work, I don't care about any reputation at all, what I care about is you loyal knights who live and die with me!"
A few simple words moved the chief knight and the knights around him to tears, and they wished that they could die for Sidney right now.
"Everyone bear with us, our purpose is to slow down the opponent's march, and there is no need and must not fight with them. Even if they divide their troops, no matter how they divide their troops, they will not be able to protect those civilians thoroughly. Sidney's eyes flickered and she came up with an idea, and ordered her knights to do so.
Sidney's knights changed their tactics once again, and when they approached the retreating group, they did not approach the retreating group, but drew their bows and arrows and fired a few arrows at the retreating crowd, and whether they hit or not, they left before the surrounding goblin soldiers arrived.
The feather arrows whistling over their heads, and the screams that sounded around them from time to time, made the civilians retreating north fall into panic again, although the rose knights shot a few bows and arrows, which did not cause much damage at all, but for the civilians it was enough to make people frightened.
"It's so despicable, these Rose Knights are so insulting to chivalry that they don't deserve to be called knights at all!, Marquis Leo, do you have any way to deal with those despicable fellows?" said Pique and Nick indignantly. King Fairman was embarrassed to come to Leo for help, so he pretended to be unwell and asked the two princes to come to Leo to discuss a solution.
Leo frowned, and he was also quite troubled by the difficulty of these rose knights. Now that the Rose Knights have a physical blow, it should be a psychological shock, which makes Leo feel a little difficult to deal with for a while.
"Great master, this is very simple, just leave it to Caraxiu! But you need to borrow the master's petrified lizard to use it!" Caraxiu on the side saw that he had the opportunity to express himself, and hurriedly stepped forward and patted his skinny chest to reassure.
Anyway, he couldn't think of any good way for a while, so Leo simply let go and let Karaxiu give it a try. But don't mention, Karahue is the goblin king, and he knows the goblins the best and can exert the goblin's combat power.
Karasyu gave each group of petrified lizards one and ordered the goblin soldiers to enter the woods on both sides of the road to prepare for jungle battles with the oncoming rose knights.
The territory of Lorraine is not as dense as the hills and forests of the Varu Empire, it is located on the plains, mainly farmland and grassland, and the woods on both sides of the road are not so dense. But even so, the green-skinned goblins are hard to tell as they walk through the woods in the middle of summer.
Once again, when the Rose Knights tried to sneak out of the woods to attack the retreating team, they happened to encounter a team of goblins. However, the goblin squad did not immediately show up to engage the knights, but quietly hid in the woods, waiting until most of the knights had passed before suddenly attacking the second half of the knights.
I have to say that although these goblin soldiers are not strong individually, they still have some attainments in grasping fighters and being proficient in ambush operations. Just as the knights of the front team approached the retreating team and were about to shoot arrows with bows, the knights of the second half of the team were surrounded by goblin warriors who suddenly appeared, and nearly a hundred spears pierced the unsuspecting knights like hedgehogs.
Seeing that the colleagues behind him were sneak attacked, the rose knights in the front half of the team didn't care about attacking civilians, and hurriedly turned to shoot the bow and arrow in their hands at the goblin soldiers. Unfortunately, in their panic, they forgot that this was a wooded jungle, and the goblin soldiers had to duck behind the trees, and the arrows were completely useless.
The Rose Knights were desperate to retreat, and if they continued to fight the green-skinned goblins in the woods who couldn't tell where they were, they would be defeated. But if they continued to advance and rush into the crowd of civilians, the Praetorian Guards and magicians who had already been mobilized by Pique and Nick would not let them leave easily.
Even when the Rose Knights are in a dilemma, the petrified lizards don't let them go. A petrified ray shot out from somewhere in the woods, turning a rose knight into a stone statue. Under the influence of the goblins, the petrified lizard also seems to have become obscene, and after petrifying the enemy, it immediately hides behind a tree, and waits until the Rose Knight is unprepared to poke its head out again and continue to fire petrification rays.
Just as the petrified lizards tossed the roseknights suspiciously, the goblin soldiers crept in on once more. The roar of the Rose Knight and the brief sounds of battle resounded in the woods, and after a while there was silence again.
Although the Rose Knights' dying counterattack caused a lot of casualties to the goblin soldiers, the surviving goblin soldiers didn't care at all, because the fewer companions around, the more loot they could share.
Sidney's nerves were tensed again by the departure and failure of a group of rose knights, and she did not send another team of harassing knights before she figured it out, but waited until the team had retreated north before leading people to the ambush site of the knights to investigate the situation.
The dead rose knights were stripped into bare pigs by the goblins and thrown to the ground at will, the live horses were taken away to help the civilians on their way, and the dead horses were also skinned by the goblins for meat. The bloody scene in the woods made Sidney's pretty face twitch for a while, and the silver teeth almost crushed to pieces, and a few words coldly popped out of the jade teeth: "Leo Kovennath!
