Chapter 223: The Phoenix Dance Legion is out
An Wenxuan listened to the elf's words and immediately asked, "How many enemies can there be?" It's good that An Wenxuan didn't appear, and this appearance immediately caused a commotion among the elves. The elf, who has an inexplicable hatred for humans www.biquge.info even pulled out the narrow elf knife at his waist, and shouted at An Wenxuan: "It must be this human who brought in the slave hunting team, let me kill this despicable and shameless guy first"
"Han Sai, don't be rude to An" Ben En hurriedly stopped and said loudly: "This matter has nothing to do with him"
Several other elders also scolded the clansmen for not being rude to An Wenxuan, An was an honorable guest of the Elven Forest, and the slave hunting team had nothing to do with him at all.
In the Elven Forest, the queen and the elders have supreme authority. Seeing that several elders said this, although the other elves still had doubts, they didn't dare to say more. Only Lucia's suitor Han Sai still glared at An Wenxuan viciously, looking like he was at odds with him.
Seeing this, Ben En hurriedly glanced at his son Han Sai and asked him to obediently hide aside. Although Benn also hates humans, he also understands that the slave catchers must be eliminated now. As for the future, Benn will definitely do his best to prevent any contact between the noble elves and the lowly and despicable humans.
Knowing the meaning of his father's gaze, Han Sai put away the elven knife and walked to the side, secretly thinking about how to kill this nasty human without being noticed by the other clansmen.
An Wenxuan didn't seem to pay attention to the little turmoil just now, and continued to ask the elf in green chain armor, is there any terrain in the west that is suitable for a large number of troops to deploy?"
Since the elders all said that An Wenxuan was an honored guest of the Elven Forest, the elf didn't think much about it and immediately replied: "Next to the camp is a small river, and the trees by the river are sparse......
"Very good" An Wenxuan didn't wait for the elf to finish speaking, he had already raised his hand and made a forward gesture. As soon as An Wenxuan's hand was raised, the Phoenix Dance Legion soldiers who had stayed at the edge of the forest without making any sound reacted. Under the leadership of the female generals of the Yang Sect, they marched forward in a neat manner, and when their weapons and armor collided, they made a loud "boom, boom" sound, and even frightened several young elves into tears.
Even Randolph and several other elven elders couldn't help but look at each other in the face of such a situation. The elves have lived in the forest for too long, and the occasional enemy is a poorly disciplined slave catcher, and they have forgotten that there is such a well-disciplined army on the Continent of the Gods.
Looking at the movements of the Phoenix Dance Legion soldiers as neatly as one person, and listening to the neat footsteps like the beat of the drums, the elf elders had a new understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Phoenix Dance Legion soldiers. The other elves had finally seen An Wenxuan's strength, and they all showed a mixture of surprise and fear. As long as you don't lack a heart, you can see that these human soldiers can bring a devastating blow to the elven forest.
They walked past the camp with neat steps, trampling the green grass into a mess, but they did not stop at all, and drove directly to the river to the west of the Elven Forest to set up their formation. An Wenxuan asked the soldiers to set up a formation in the woods at the edge of the meadow, and waited patiently for the arrival of the slave catcher. In fact, the place where the elven scout slave catcher team was not very far from the camp, and after those delays just now, An Wenxuan didn't wait too long, and saw a mysterious figure appear in the woods on the other side of the river - the slave catcher team had finally arrived.
This is a large slave hunting team, from the captain to the most indecent porter There are nearly 5,000 people in total, and it is even an army originally. It is precisely because of such a strong strength that the slave catcher team has a great appetite this time. They rushed to the camp on the outskirts of the elves, trying to catch all the elves in the outlying camps.
There were only more than 200 people in the outer elf camp, so all the members of the slave hunting team felt that this operation was safe. Despite the large number of people involved in this operation, the capture of a few dozen elves will allow everyone to earn a handsome amount of revenge, and perhaps the opportunity to have some pleasant "deep" encounters with the most beautiful race in the legend, which is too tempting for all the slave catchers.
Therefore, all the members of the slave catcher team were eager to fight, and advanced as fast as possible to the outer camp of the elves, even when they encountered the waist-deep river, everyone scrambled to be the first, and none of them wanted to be left behind the others - before the operation, the captain had promised that those who were brave in the battle would get an extra share of the prize money when distributing it, and that they would have the opportunity to play with the elves, and under such a heavy reward, of course, no one wanted to be a turtle with a shrunken head.
But the slave catchers didn't know that in the woods across the river, there were two thousand five hundred elite soldiers in full armor waiting for them. Thereupon...... And so these guys are completely tragic.
When the members of the slave catcher team who rushed to the front had already gone ashore, and the last slave catcher team member had also come to the deepest part of the river, An Wenxuan gave the order for the crossbowmen to start attacking. In an instant, the bowstrings rang out, and the arrows shot at the target like locusts, forming a terrifying web of death in the air.
Although the slave catchers expected that the elves would definitely resist, they did not expect this resistance to come so violently that they felt that they had nowhere to hide.
After the first rain of arrows, all but a few of the strongest slave hunters who rushed to the front were spared, and all fell under the deadly arrows. The slave hunters in the river were not having a good time, and many were either killed or wounded. The dead and the seriously wounded fell down the river, and the lightly wounded turned and fled to the other side in a wolf wail, completely forgetting their previous "ambitions".
The reactions of the uninjured slave catchers varied, and some hurriedly used their shields to protect the vital points and continued to march towards the other side of the river. Others took off their backs and fired arrows into the trees on the opposite side.
It's a pity that the soldiers of the Phoenix Dance Legion are well hidden, and the slave catchers in the river can hardly see the enemy, let alone shoot accurately. Moreover, their bowstrings were more or less wet when crossing the river, and they were much inferior in strength. Therefore, this round of counterattack by the slave catchers did not have any effect at all, only single-digit soldiers were injured as a result, and even fewer were killed.
The crossbowmen of the Phoenix Dance Legion quickly mounted their strings and launched a second round of attacks, this time focusing on those who stayed in the river to shoot arrows. Under the heavy blows of the crossbowmen, the slave catchers who tried to return fire suffered heavy casualties, and many corpses were found on the surface of the river.
Blood from the corpses and wounded slave catchers stained the surface of the river pink. The quiet forest suddenly became a slaughterhouse, and the fresh air was filled with a faint smell of blood.
There are also many elves who follow to see the excitement. Most of them didn't believe that An Wenxuan would really start a war for the elves and the same kind, and they all came with an attitude of surveillance. However, when they saw what they saw, they all had a shocked look on their faces - this human was really unambiguous, having killed hundreds of his kind in the first place, and the same number of humans were injured to varying degrees.
It was only at this time that the elves believed that An Wenxuan was genuinely here to help them. Although the concept of human despicability and shamelessness is deeply ingrained in the elves' hearts, and it is impossible to completely change it for a while, at least their impression of An Wenxuan is much better.
And a few elven elders thought even further. Although the elves are constantly known for their archery skills, if they encounter a sufficient number of crossbowmen like An Wenxuan's men, and such a strict discipline, I am afraid they will not be able to please much.
This also strengthened the far-sighted elder's determination to form an alliance with An Wenxuan. There is no way, when encountering such a powerful human being, people are willing to live in peace with the elves, and if there are some other ideas, they can only be described as stupid.
However, the elven elders are very smart, which does not mean that there are no stupid people in the entire elven forest, and Benn and his son Han Sai are one of them. Or it should be said that Han Sai is not usually stupid, but his arrogant personality and inexplicable superiority have lowered his IQ.
Seeing An Wenxuan's subordinates in the limelight in the battle, this self-righteous elven supremacist couldn't hold back again. He looked at the corpses of the slave catchers in disgust as they floated and sunk in the river, and complained to An Wenxuan coldly: "Do you know that this river is the water source of the camp? These corpses have polluted the river, do you want the noble elves to drink the dirty water that soaked the lowly human corpses?"
As soon as Han Sai's words came out, even a few nearby elves couldn't get used to hearing them. An Wenxuan is now helping the elves resist foreign enemies, and if it weren't for his assistance, the entire outer camp would have suffered a catastrophe. And Han Sai is still polluting the water source in the stranger's house, which is inevitably too ignorant, and it is simply embarrassing the face of the elf.
An Wenxuan had already seen Han Sai extremely unpleasant, and this guy had repeatedly made provocative remarks, of course he would not be indifferent. An Wenxuan glanced at Han Sai with extreme contempt, then shook his head and said softly: "I finally understand now, the so-called noble elves will only hide behind human soldiers and say cool things, according to this, the goblin with the least courage is the most noble race." By the way, those guys must be your relatives, right?"
An Wenxuan's words made Han Sai furious. As a noble elf, he would never tolerate a human slandering him like this, and he would not allow anyone to claim that a goblin, a creature that is almost like a beast, is his relative, which is simply the greatest insult. But the reality is true, now it is all up to An Wenxuan's army and the slave catcher team to fight, and he Han Sai has not even opened the bowstring once.
"You shut up for me" Even so, Han Sai couldn't tolerate a human talking to him like this, and immediately shouted viciously: "The honor of the elves can't let you be a human to corrupt ......"
"Don't talk nonsense, noble elf-sama. An Wenxuan smiled disdainfully: "If you have the courage not to hide behind my soldiers and face the enemy indirectly, I will admit that the elves have honor, otherwise...... Hey hey"
An Wenxuan's words stumped Han Sai, he was not an idiot, of course he knew that rushing out at this time would be to die. While it is important to prove that the elves have honor, it is clear that life is more and more important.
Looking at Han Sai's embarrassed appearance, An Wenxuan said with a look of contempt: "It seems that you are nothing more than that, 'noble' Mr. Elf, don't blame me for not giving you a chance, I will order the soldiers to attack in a while, and I will also join the battle." If you kill more enemies than I do, I can still recognize the honor of the elves, but ...... Do you dare?"
"Why don't I dare?" Han Sai, who was squeezed into the corner by An Wenxuan's words, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll let you know the fate of offending an elf in a while."
"Hehe, okay" An Wenxuan responded coldly, and suddenly ordered loudly: "First squadron, attack"
