Chapter 20: The Bridge Destroys
The guards lay down in the pre-dug bunkers, holding their breath and quietly listening to the noise of the gnolls outside.
Giggs waited, Jim waited, waited for Sir Thor across the river to give the order to fight, and waited for the moment when the Clear Water Bridge collapsed!
And at this time near the Qingshui Bridge, the dense gnolls lined up in three columns, ready to cross the bridge in the roar of their commander, as long as they cross the bridge, there is another town in front of them to wait for them to plunder, this is the last plunder of the jackals before the winter, the loot has been sent to the tribe to send a part of the manpower, this winter, for the gnolls, no longer cold.
Sir Thor was lying on his stomach in the bunker that had been dug in advance on the other side of the river, and he was lying in the bunker at this time, regardless of his aristocratic demeanor, staring at the gnoll's every move. When he found the gnolls lined up in three to cross the bridge, Sir Thor felt his heart rise to his throat.
"Yes, that's it, get on the bridge, get ready for the big gift for you~" Sir Thor muttered softly, God knows how much pressure the constant news of the gnolls looting the town brought him, "It's good that there are Giggs~", Sir Thor thought to himself, "This is a good guy, perhaps, after this battle, he will be promoted to the position of lieutenant of the garrison, so that his talents can be better played." ”
When Sir Thor, who was a little distracted, focused on the gnolls again, he found that the front of the gnoll's team had reached the center of the bridge, so he pressed the other thoughts in his mind, and watched the gnoll march slowly on the Clear Water Bridge, and he waited until a suitable time to give the signal to dig the bridge.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Seeing that the gnolls of his tribe were slowly going up the bridge in front of him, the commander of this small group of gnolls Alsa couldn't help frowning, just now a subordinate told him that when he went on the bridge, he felt that the bridge was shaky, and Arsa personally walked a few steps on the bridge, and he did feel that the bridge was a little light and fluttering when he walked on it.
"Probably this bridge has fallen into disrepair, let the troops go a little slower, this is the last town, the great king of the jackals - Yenogu's invasion plan is arranged like this, after robbing this town, you can return to the tribe, after all, it has been out for so long~"
Then the commander of the small group of gnolls howled for all the gnolls to slow down, and warned them that the bridge was shaking.
"I envy the elves for having a complete language, and you have to use your arms and howl to talk to these guys to know what to do!
Artha roared angrily, and asked his subordinates to go to the bridge in peace, and a human town was not far ahead~
Arsa stood on one side of the bridge, supervising the jackals to get on the bridge, and every gnolla who passed by him could hear his roars and intimidation, which was what Artha had to do, otherwise these guys with bad heads would make a fuss on the bridge and collapse the bridge.
Thinking of this, a feeling of unease flashed in Arsa's heart, but then he shook his head, those human resistance is not worth mentioning in front of the gnoll warriors, as long as the gnoll's troops rush to the human settlement, the next thing is to use the gnolls' fangs and sharp claws to solve all obstacles.
Today, it will be no exception!
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Giggs looked at the gnolls through the cracks in the cover, their brownish-gray hair, long pointed beaks, and strong physique, and they couldn't worry a little about the battle that followed.
His right hand gently held the hilt of the short knife at his waist, Giggs knew that when the battle began, the bow and arrow would only have one chance to shoot, in order to annihilate the Gnoll's troops on the Clear Water Bridge, Giggs Their ambush location could not be too far from the bridge, and the garrison must have a perfect chance to shoot, the garrison's bunker was not even fifty meters away from the bridgehead, because to lure the gnoll army to the bridge, so Giggs could not set a trap on his side, lest the gnolls perceive the trap and start searching around, so under their sensitive noses, even if the guards have smeared grass on their bodies to cover up the smell on their bodies, will also be found by the gnoll who is seriously searching.
When the vanguard of the gnolls had already set foot on the other side of the bridge, the commander of the gnolls, Arsa, also beckoned several of his personal guards and prepared to go to the bridge.
At this time, Sir Thor also gave the order to send a signal to the attendant next to him, and the attendant quickly took the order and fired an arrow into the sky.
"Whoosh~" With the sound of the arrow in the sky, the first to act was a few people who had been soaking in the river for nearly an hour, their lips were already frozen black, and their whole bodies were trembling, and then they heard the signal and picked up the tool they had been holding in their hands, "Bang bang bang~" With the sound of the chisel hitting the support under the bridge, the already shaky Qingshui Bridge is now shaking even more, which caused a commotion among the jackals who are still on the bridge.
When the sound of arrows in the sky reached the ears of Arsa the jackal, he did not prove that he was smarter than the other gnolls, and his poor head was completely unaware of what was happening, until the bridge under his feet shook even more, and there was a "bang, bang" sound, and Arsa realized that the bridge was about to collapse!
"There's an ambush! get out of the bridge!" Arsa shouted to the jackals on the bridge, and he himself immediately turned and ran behind him.
When Arsa followed a few guards to the shore just when he heard the sound of "boom" coming from behind him, he turned his head to see that the Qingshui Bridge had collapsed at this time, and many jackals fell into the water like dumplings, and then struggled in the river, and when the bridge was about to collapse, several people under the bridge had already swam downstream along the current.
Just as Artha watched the gnolls who fell into the water helpless, on the other side of the bridge, the bridge had already led the guards to shoot at the gnolls. Artha had already understood by this time that his troops had been ambushed, and it was an ambush by humans.
Artha immediately prepared to rescue the jackal who had fallen into the water and then fight again, but unfortunately a burst of arrows from behind him made him have to dispel this idea~
Giggs, it's already out!
