Chapter 17: Grace
The logistics team, mainly reindeer and dom sheep, quickly rushed from upstream to the river.
Behind the deer and sheep were not only a driver, but also a variety of supplies.
The five drivers quickly pulled the sled to the river and arrived at the village under the guidance of the forester.
Lawrence came out of the house to greet the logistics team.
"Good, a little faster than I expected."
"Prophet," said the coachman, "we rested for an hour in the igloo on the way, feeding the deer and the sheep. ”
Lawrence is well aware of the stamina of the domes and reindeer and doesn't mind it.
"This is the rest it deserves, these guys pulling the cart need to be taken care of, so now carry the food down and feed the stomachs of our soldiers who are about to go on the expedition."
"Yes, Prophet!" Decaro and the others happily agreed.
Lawrence also helped, and there were not many things in the car, all of which were food and supplies that were inconvenient for the expeditionary force to carry when they set off.
This time it was for military training, but also for everyone to be exposed to and adapt to the new mode of warfare.
In the future, whether it is attacking the south or assisting in the defense of the port of Vakiri, there will be logistical and rapid marching problems.
The regiment set out as soon as possible to solve the problem of the war, and the logistics team sent all kinds of supplies that they did not have time to carry in the back.
Winter is the home of the Ice Warriors, and fighting in this home will make it easier to destroy the enemy's resistance.
Andrew and the others soon ate the pancakes and vegetable and seaweed soup from their hometown.
The soldiers, whose shoes were wet, were also put on new socks and boots.
Each shoe is stuffed with warm wool insoles, and there is plush inside, which belongs to the exquisite wool boots that can only be worn by true aristocrats.
After putting on leggings and bracers, Andrew led more than a hundred people downstream.
Lawrence did not follow and handed over all the decision-making and command to Andrew.
After Andrew left, Sophia wondered, "Aren't we going to follow?" ”
Lawrence walked back into the house and said, "I've done everything I can, and if a hundred people can't defeat a tribe of four hundred, then it's the same whether I go or not." ”
"Sophia, you rest, tomorrow is the time for you to play, tomorrow we will go to check on the hibernating monsters nearby."
"Hmm!" Sophia looked at the gradually darkening sky, "Are they okay to go out at night?" ”
"It's okay, they like to go out and rob in the evening or morning," said Sariel calmly. ”
Lawrence looked at Sariel's whining appearance and understood Sariel's complicated feelings at this time.
"I'm sure I'll wait for them to come back before I go to bed, Sariel, if you're okay, the two of us will play chess, or I'll have to get up in the middle of the night to watch them when I sleep."
Salil nodded and said, "Good! ”
Lawrence quickly found a wooden plank, used a dagger to draw a backgammon board, and then found some branches and cut them into small sticks.
Sariel used stones.
The two hadn't played backgammon together for a long time, so they put the wooden plank on the quilt and sat on the quilt and played a game.
On the other side, Andrew and the others were led by Leglow to the outside of the Viper Tribe.
The Viper tribe was in the forest a hundred meters away from the river, and when a group of people approached the outside of the tribe in the dark, most of the area inside was already pitch black, and only a few tents had fire.
Reglo excitedly said, "This is it!" Let's go straight in! ”
Fryce looked at Andrew.
Andrew squinted his eyes and thought, "No, I'm going to fight that man in a dignified manner!" ”
Reglo glared at Andrew angrily, but didn't dare to be angry.
"The Prophet let us conquer this place! Now go straight in, just like you did before! ”
Andrew jerked out his hand and grabbed Reglow's neck.
"You have a wrong opinion of me! This can put you in danger! I've never been a sneak attacker! ”
Andrew threw the woman, who looked like a man, to the ground with a look of disdain.
"You should be aware that you are not a man below, or I will give you two blows!"
Reglo was extremely angry at this time, and the giant of the Viper tribe, Grace, also spared her life because he found out that she was a woman.
Whether it is the Western Kingdom or the barbarians of the North and South, they all unanimously maintain some respect for the women who dare to fight, and will not kill these people unless necessary.
Except, of course, robbers.
Andrew wants to fight, wants exciting fights.
Whether it's with Redbeard or Lawrence, Andrew can't find that kind of exciting fight.
Lawrence is really good and always wins, but Andrew doesn't like this kind of grinding plan.
"Let's get out! I'm going to fight that Grace! ”
Fryce thought it was a bit bad, and the Prophet's instructions were to conquer the place.
It's okay to kill, it's okay not to kill, the important thing is to conquer.
Fryce hesitated, but let Andrew mess around.
The soldiers in the back followed.
Seeing that Andrew had to face each other head-on, everyone also gave up long-range weapons such as slings and began to approach the grass hut in front of them with shields and axes.
Fryce proposed, "Wait! ”
Andrew looked at Fryce.
Fryce said, "Say hello with a sling, the people here speak Durella, let the Durella people shout." ”
Andrew took the advice, "Let's go! ”
Reglo couldn't stop these people, and he couldn't give Andrew advice, so he could only stand aside very unhappily and wait for the time to go into battle to kill the enemy.
Soon more than thirty soldiers stepped forward and threw stones.
Dense blocks of stone struck at the burning houses of the Viper tribe.
There is no starlight in the sky at night, visibility is very low, and the Viper tribe does not have dogs, so they cannot spot the enemies outside.
The first stone quickly flew to the hut, followed by the second, then the third!
The whistling of stones and the clashing of wood, as well as the screams of sheep and people, soon became heard in the tribe.
The quiet tribe soon became noisy, and more and more people began to wake up from their sleep to check on the situation outside.
Twenty Durella soldiers quickly shouted, "Giant Grace! Giant Grace! Come out, I'm going to fight you! ”
"Giant Grace! Come out! I'm going to fight you! ”
Andrew stood at the entrance of the village and waited, a fire had burned in front of him, and the fire exposed his position clearly!
"Who? Who's going to fight me?! ”
A burly man quickly stood up from the hut, and he pushed the wood and hay out of the hut.
The burly giant pushed aside the branches and blades of grass that were in the way of his head, strode in front of the door and looked around, and soon saw the man in leather armor in the distance.
Both sides saw the silhouette of the other.
Grace pulled a piece of wood from the cabin as a weapon and strode over to Andrew's place.
The two-meter-long, wrist-thick wooden stick was lifted high by Glisi, and when the huge body quickly approached Andrew, he directly hit it with a stick!
Boom!
Andrew's greatsword was in the way of his head, but was quickly crushed by the tremendous force of the wooden stick on his arm.
Even if both hands are exerting their strength, they can't stop this stick in terms of strength.
Andrew looked excited, and the greatsword that was pressed between his shoulder and the wooden stick sliced directly against the wooden stick, cutting towards the giant's wrist.
The height difference between the two sides is more than 40 centimeters, and there is also a big difference in weight and strength.
Andrew's greatsword, though longer than a normal weapon, still can't touch Grace, who is holding a long wooden club in one hand.
Just when Grace thought that he could hit this dwarf again and kill this dwarf completely, Grace soon sensed that something was wrong.
The sharp sword slashed the wooden stick into two slanted pieces!
Grace looked at the wooden stick in his hand that was broken more than a meter, and then looked at the giant sword in Andrew's hand, revealing an extremely solemn look.
"Who are you?"
Andrew looked at the broken wooden stick that had fallen to the ground, and raised the greatsword in his hand again.
For the first time, I felt the power of this weapon.
Sure enough, real weapons should be used in battle.
