Chapter 64 Decision (Second Shift Monthly Pass)

At that time, seeing that the other party withdrew his bow and arrows, he drew his long sword and forced forward. Robin Hood didn't hurry to laugh, he smiled like this, and the elven ranger leader screamed badly in his heart, but before he could finish reacting, Robin Hood raised his hand, raised his intact left hand, and in the sleeve on his wrist, he shot a short arrow, which hit the neck of the elf ranger leader. But it was the Norman scout, the Assassins' favorite Hidden Arrow!

"Y-your-your-you-the-the--way chief-ruffle--the-go-the-mill ranger leader felt that his strength was rapidly draining, and he knew that he was dying. However, when he died, he couldn't believe it. It seems that a longbow marksman like Robin Hood would kill someone with such a small crossbow bolt!

"That's right, I'm cheating. Robin Hood got up from the ground and held the wound in his right hand with his left hand to avoid excessive bleeding. He looked coldly at the elven ranger leader and replied.

"Indeed...... I lost ...... Don't be wronged...... "Listen to Robin Hood admit it as if nothing happened." The leader of the Elven Ranger smiled miserably and fell weakly.

"Dead. For a moment, Robin Hood was flanked by Sherwood marksmen, one of whom blocked him in front, and the other held him, escorting him to a safer place, leaning against the trunk of a tree. Robin Hood didn't resist either. He knew that the man was dead. This group of elven rangers will not be able to do anything.

Seeing your own leader die in battle. The elven rangers suddenly had red eyes, roared madly one by one, and desperately killed Robin Hood where he was. I will break him into ten thousand pieces and avenge the chief. Sherwood's marksmen could barely stop such an offensive. Soon, however, Sherwood marksmen from the other nine squads, who had heard the arrows before, came one after another. The two wings flanked, with an absolute numerical advantage, and quickly saved the battle. Later, other squads of the Elven Ranger also arrived to reinforce them, but the Norman Empire still had the upper hand in numbers. The forest elves are powerless to return to the sky.

Ultimately. In the unwilling roar of the forest elves, the Norman Sherwood marksman fired a volley. Shoot the last Elven Ranger like a hedgehog. When the venie who died with hatred fell. The Sherwood marksmen breathed a sigh of relief.

In a fierce battle, the elves threw in a hundred people, and the number of humans was five times that of them. In the end, the Elven Ranger was wiped out. Eighty-two Sherwood marksmen were killed and fifty-one wounded. The battle damage ratio is even higher than that of elves. This made the usually arrogant Sherwood marksmen gasp.

"Don't worry...... Those people are also considered to be the top among the forest elves. Suffer a small loss, not wronged. Seeing that his soldiers looked apprehensive, they had just been bandaged. Robin Hood, who was pale because of blood loss, said. After his reassurance, the marksman's face was a little better. Soon, seeing that there were no scouts to return and report the news, the baggage soldiers and engineers did not move. More troops rushed to reinforcements. Among them, there was a military doctor, and Robin Hood's wounds were treated in more detail. Then part of the army was left behind, and the other part escorted the wounded back.

Egil, who was waiting for news in the barracks, heard that the scout troops had encountered an enemy ambush. Even Robin Hood was injured, which was a bit of a surprise at the time. Robin Hood's ability, Egir naturally knew it. can make him hurt, the other party's ability is a little scary. So, when Robin Hood returned, Egil immediately went to the field hospital. Visiting condolences and asking for news.

"That's all. His subordinates killed him...... And the other team's troops were also annihilated by the other squads that rushed to help. When Robin Hood said this, Egil breathed a sigh of relief. It's just that if you think about it again, since the other party has such a powerful ambush. Then I can't say that in the future, if we march forward, we will encounter even more powerful ones. As soon as he thought about it, Egil got a little tired. If it weren't for the hell of England, one and a half days out of three days would be cloudy and rainy. Egil wanted to burn the bird forest with a fire. ...,

"There are no sunny days. There is no three-foot flat ...... Poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people. Egil sighed. On this day, the army did not go out for twenty miles. It was not until the next day that the customary twenty-four wooden forts were completed.

In the following period, just as Egir thought, the other party, the forest elves, and the tree monkeys began to harass them non-stop. But unlike Egil thought, none of the harassments that followed had a first time. That is, the one that Robin Hood encountered. Or the forest elves sent more than a hundred troops, or two or three hundred. Or even more than three hundred. All would be repulsed by the Norman army, which was outnumbered, better equipped, and more vigilant. Although, in the course of such a raid, the number of losses of the Norman army was slightly larger. Piecemeal, in two weeks, the Norman army lost almost a thousand men. Even more serious is the erosion of morale.

Bad weather, bad geography, bad and vile enemies. The morale of the Norman army was constantly worn down over time. Although on the surface, they are only slightly tired, and the grumbling becomes more. And the execution of the mission, the conduct of the operation can still be done well. But this is already worth paying attention to.

"Fortunately, we are very close to our destination. ”

In the space of fourteen days, the Norman army advanced sixty miles through the Welsh woods. Hundreds of wooden forts were built. It is worth noting that this eighty-mile journey includes four settlements of forest spirits of various sizes. That is, what they call tribes. Although by the time the Norman ** team settled in, these places had already been emptied, and they were pushed farther and more precipitous into the mountains and forests. But it must be said that this is exciting news.

Farther away, more precipitous, and naturally less inhabitable. The Norman army was squeezing the forest elves little by little. Gradually, these forest elves were cornered.

In the Brecon Mountains, the forest elven tribe that used to look spacious is now overcrowded. A large number of forest elves who migrated from other tribes built makeshift shacks, occupying every bit of the tribe's open space. The resulting hygiene problems are also a headache. Even more serious are the food problems and the cold that comes with the coming winter.

The forest elves are a tribe that lives on fishing and hunting, and foreign trade has been interrupted, so naturally there is not much food left. The Normans occupied more area, and the forest elves were able to hunt and gather less. In the long run, there will inevitably be a danger of famine.

It's almost October, late autumn, and it's a little cold in the morning and evening. Everyone knows how much a makeshift shack can keep out the cold. At this moment, there are already many elves of old and weak women and children who can't stand it. If it drags on for another month or two, there will definitely be a large number of elves who will not survive and will freeze to death in the mountains.

In the longhouse of the elders of this large tribe, it is also overcrowded. The elders of several forest elf tribes gathered to discuss countermeasures, and all they heard with their ears and saw bad news with their eyes. Sneak attacks and ambushes were cautious under the emperor of the Norman Empire, and an experienced and well-trained Norman army was a difficult thing to do. Moreover, even if it succeeds once or twice, it will not change the general trend.

Moreover, when the Normans were on guard, the casualties of the forest elves were also heavy. The Norman army suffered thousands of casualties, and the forest elves attacked and ambushed the Norman garrison of the wooden fort...... The loss of troops in this way is probably more than 2,000. The Norman army lost thousands of soldiers and horses, and the forest elves died more than 2,000 at all, which is almost the family Dai Xiao......

Finally, after some discussion, the elders came to the conclusion that: ...,

The Norman Empire's back routes were stable, and although morale was slightly reduced, it could not play an absolute role. The casualties were also not significant. Then use the method of sneak attack, fight with the other party piecemeal, and stay up with the other party, and the first to break down is definitely not the Normans.

"We can't go on like this!" shouted some of the forest elves excitedly, "we must concentrate all our forces and organize a large-scale, organized, and powerful battle. Defeat those humans and drive them out of the forest at once!

"How can you say that you are sitting and waiting to die?!Our warriors have to go out every day to fight those humans! Every day someone will die!Every day they will kill the enemy!" Some of the elves couldn't listen anymore and retorted like this.

"But that doesn't work at all, it doesn't change anything at all. "There are also elven elders who say so.

“...... If only Dreyades were still around, alas. Someone shook his head and said. That Dreyades is the one who was killed by Robin Hood with a sleeve arrow half a month ago.

"Anyway, we have to break the deadlock. The life and death of the forest elves depends on this time. We have no way out!"

“...... It's a show of hands. Eventually, there was an elf who made such an opinion. Everyone agreed. The final result was that of the thirty-two elven elders, twenty-four raised their hands in favor of taking the initiative to fight.

"Well, then, guys, let's go back and get ready. Seeing that the matter had been settled, the elder who had been clamoring to take the initiative to attack breathed a sigh of relief, nodded to the group of elf elders, and was the first to walk out. Outside, the forest elf residents and refugees who were tired and in poor condition announced loudly: "Everyone, compatriots! We have made a decision to concentrate all our forces to fight to the death against the human race! This is the most critical war that will determine our survival! The survival of the forest elf race depends on your performance this time!"
