Chapter 573: Swept

March 11, early in the morning.

The sentinel returned to report that a group of routs numbering about two hundred had appeared on the west side.

Jiang Yuan put away the smoked horse jerky, and after yesterday, fifty-four goatmen joined the team, with the leader as the mount, and he had publicly stated that he was allowed to escape, but the price of being found was death.

The leader of the goatmen cowered so that his master could sit up, and his face was purple and bruised with purple and bruises, and even the heavy fur had fallen clean.

The team immediately moved to the west.

Sensing the movement, the defeated soldiers put on a combat posture, in the first battle of the north, the kingdom army was almost defeated, and at this moment there were a large number of stragglers struggling to survive in various places.

Jiang Yuan drew his one-handed green sword and stepped forward, and the team charged when they saw this, for this group of guys whose confidence was scattered, only a tough posture could make them obey.

In the rout, a sparse array of arrows flew in, mixed with a fireball the size of a human head, and the mage's troops suffered the first round of impact at that time, and they also suffered heavy losses, so they had to choose to flee.

The gale suddenly swelled, and the pale blue storm wiped out the long-range attack, and the cavalry team plunged headlong into the loose battle formation, taking more than thirty lives after a single charge.

Surrender and escape happened at the same time, the cavalry team scattered to capture, Jiang Yuan killed those guys who had already run away in turn, he didn't care who died or lived, anyway, no one could not be replaced.

The number of defeated troops has reached more than one hundred and fifty people, and the leader is a middle-aged magician, whose comprehensive level is the same as that of the cavalry captain, which is LV19.

"The distribution goatmen with the equipment on their bodies, and the rest follow the group on foot, and you will be the infantry leader in the future."

The middle-aged magician's face was dazed, and the grass clippings that had lowered his head to the ground just now were still at the corners of his mouth, but someone didn't mean to communicate carefully, and then ordered the team to move on.

That night, twenty-four routers plotted to flee and were shot by one after leaving the camp.

On March 12, the team set off.

The party passed through a village that had been inhabited by goats and stone-eating apes, with a wall of earth made of rocks of various shapes mixed with muddy water, totaling about five hundred.

More than a dozen bursting arrows rained down from the sky, igniting the thatched huts and firewood in the village, and the power of the Elven King Wind Son unleashed a storm that sent a tornado of flames rising from the plains.

The Asians fled from it in a hurry, crashing head-on into the long-awaited cavalry.

The stone-eating apes were all killed and stripped of their furs for supplies, and the goatman leader was surprised to find that he had become the leader of three hundred members of the tribe.

At the same time, the number of cavalry also reached two hundred and fifty, and the rudimentary leather armor on the stone ape was distributed.

Two hours later, a group of routs, numbering about four hundred, who had received the news, led by a baron's second son, hoping that the cavalry would join them.

Jiang Yuan was separated by a distance of nearly a kilometer, and used the ability of the Son of the Wind to form an elemental arrow like a substance, killing the second son of the baron.

The cavalry team charged, and the four soldiers gathered in the team prepared to take the opportunity to escape, but the cavalry captain quickly caught up and hacked the fellows to death, he had already understood someone's slightly lazy course of action, disobedience or death, obedience and survival with the collective.

Jiang Yuan took the lead, swung his sword and killed the second son's guard, and a slash more than ten meters long cut his surrounding cronies in half.

Another victory, the original 100-man cavalry was already quite brave, but this time there were sporadic deaths on their own side.

In total, more than 50 people were killed on both sides, and after the capture, the team expanded to 600 men, including 300 cavalrymen.

The village was looted, and clothes, food, ironware, and a little gold and silver were looted.

At dinner time, when everyone had a hard time to eat, Jiang Yuan immediately announced a perfect set of marching discipline, just as he had done when he first came into contact with the army a long time ago.

By noon the next day, two soldiers were killed by the noise of the night, three died of excretion outside the designated place, and those who left the camp without permission at night were directly beheaded.

Seventeen people fled during the night, all of whom were beheaded by the cavalry captain.

March 14th.

The team was confronted by a regular force, a middle-aged baron who had gone out in search of an heir.

The northern region has fallen, and the strength in hand is the confidence, not to mention that according to the new law issued by the second prince, as long as you occupy and hold the relevant area, you can become a local lord, and the northern marquis and the nobles to which they belong have suffered disasters and vacated a large area of land.

Jiang Yuan took the lead in shooting the middle-aged baron, and the cavalry force of three hundred people rushed straight into the middle battle, here are all territorial soldiers brought out by the baron, with a strong sense of belonging, there is no need to stay.

A quarter of the energy in the body was released, and the wind and dawn sword qi were mixed into a tornado with extremely cutting power and roared forward, and nearly a hundred elites in the middle of the formation died, and a ring slash spread like a shattered ripple, completely tearing the "wound" presented.

Three hundred cavalry swarmed in, followed by infantry units, and middle-aged men performed their most commonly used fireball spells one after another in the queue protection, followed by two relatively young magicians.

Slashing, thrusting, and vertical slashing, one-handed swords were not suitable for battle formations, so Jiang Yuan attached the dawn sword qi and wind flow to it, extending it to three meters.

The huge cyan ship flickered continuously, and before it could be completely penetrated, the baron's troops fled.

Capture, retract, break up and reorganize, a set of standardized processes were quickly implemented, and the cavalry captain carefully studied these details, and the current size of the team has exceeded 1,003 people.

"From this battle onwards, the system of rewards and punishments will be implemented, and the rank of officers will be according to the appearance of the kingdom, and the number of cavalry troops will be as many as you are, and I will inform her later on the earl's side."

The captain of the cavalry was speechless, this lord deserved to occupy the natural elder brother, and did not take the count in his eyes at all.

"My lord, there is a troop of goatmen in the west, it looks like there are a lot of them, and they must be coming towards our enemies." The sentinel returned to report that the northern region was now a mess, and the main force of the kingdom army was unable to fight any longer except for the siege of the northern city, resulting in skirmishes becoming the mainstream, and they were frequently staged every day.

"Then go ahead."

"My lord, don't you fix it for a while?" The cavalry captain hesitated and said that the number of troops determines his official position, and he cherishes his subordinates very much at the moment, and maybe he can occupy a seat in the council hall and become a high-ranking county when he returns.

"Straighten out the queue and don't question any of my decisions in the future."

"Yes, my lord"

The team set out again, in the midst of the chaos, this force was able to grow rapidly, the posture of constant victory and the complete system of rewards and punishments maintained the basic order to the maximum, and it was important to determine the supply and repair positions before reaching the front line of the battle, taking into account the material problems.
