Chapter 65: The Boar Legion

There are many large wild boars in the city of pig's trotters, hence the name.

The environment here is suitable for free-range wild boars, with more than 500 large wild boars at the peak.

There are not many elephant-like boars left today, some of them from the battles against the Southern Kingdoms, and some of them from the turmoil.

The boars of Stehl and Vakiri are purchased from here, and the boars that serve as mounts are not always as big as possible, but the most important thing is to be obedient.

A large wild boar that is not obedient will be very troublesome and will not work properly at all.

Comparatively speaking, the smaller the size of a wild boar in the herd, the more obedient it is.

The large wild boars used for riding are generally less than two meters, and even such small and large wild boars are terrifying giants standing in front of humans, and it is difficult for humans alone to stop the collision of these wild boars.

Lawrence looked at the procession not far away, and Count Steadle rushed over with his men.

Twenty large boar cavalry, more than 300 knights and followers standing beside the boar.

The territory of Siddle has also absorbed a lot of people, and its strength is much stronger now than when it first attacked the town of Phumesius.

Lawrence looked at the approaching Earl of Steel, a calm man who was now wearing his father's armor and armed with a magnificent-looking sword.

"Prophet, being able to fight with you is the most beautiful thing in my life!"

Earl Steele quickly kept his distance and sat down on the boar to greet Lawrence, courting the mighty and benevolent prophet.

Lawrence nodded, "I think there will be many more opportunities like this, and I've gotten word from the city." ”

"Duke Rydra intends to hold on to the city behind, and now there are more than 20,000 people in the city in front, as well as more than a hundred large wild boars, and it is Count Legan who commands them."

Steer was very confident, and all these years of working with Lawrence, he was always able to get victories and rewards, which caused Earl Stehl, who was not yet thirty years old, to be a little overconfident.

"I thought Duke Redra would run away and flee to the southerners where Lofen III died."

Lawrence also thought about this possibility, but the reality was that the other party did not run away, but planned to defend to the death, or even fight back.

"If you run away, you're dead." Lawrence pondered the state of mind of Duke Redra, "Maybe when Lorfen III gave this place to Duke Redra, it wasn't because he was fat and lustful, but because he was extremely brave. ”

"It's like the former Count of Vakiri, it is said that he was also a famous warrior in the entire Rofen Kingdom more than ten years ago."

Steele smiled, "I hope the Duke can fight us with dignity, and I'd love to let him end with dignity." ”

Lawrence advised, "Be careful, we don't have a lot of troops. ”

"Yes, Prophet." Stahl quickly reined in his pride.

Siddle also knew what had happened in the kingdom of Norsenri before.

Steele learned from his men the reason for the war, and the people of Tranta's Hoof City teamed up with the Church to kill the warriors of the Church of the Stars!

No matter how proud he was, Steele knew how powerful those wizards were.

This is a group of transcendent beings who are able to wield mysterious, dangerous powers!

At this time, a young, thin man came running from a distance on a domestic sheep.

"Prophet! The people of Tranda Hoof City are gathering, and a lot of people are gathering in the city, and they are building a wooden wall! ”

Lawrence nodded at the scouts, "Good work, you take a break, we're stationed here, waiting for them to come out and fight us." ”

"Yes, Prophet!" The scout quickly went down to rest.

Stahl dismounted from the boar and handed it over to his guards to take care of and control him, and through the reins and the control of several guards, he prevented the beast from causing trouble.

"Prophet, how long are we going to wait here? What are we going to do if they don't come out? ”

Lawrence looked at the low city ahead, seven or eight hundred meters from Tranda Hoof, and could see the crowded city.

The barbarians have always played an aggressive role, so there is no idea of building high walls and moats per se, and some of the walls and buildings of Pig's Trotter City are actually remnants of the period when they were not under the control of the barbarians.

Pig's Trotter City used to be a southern region, but it was occupied before it belonged to the Kingdom of Loven.

After more than ten years of wind and sun, as well as the friction of the great wild boar and the destruction caused by the barbarian expansion of the city and territory, the walls of the city of pig's trotters lost their former role.

Now the city simply cannot provide protection for everyone.

"There must be plenty of food and wells in the city, but 20,000 people are too many to sustain."

"I think they're going to come out and get us in trouble." Lawrence smiled, "Because my navy is attacking the rest of the villages and territories, I think the nobles and knights in the city know who to protect." ”

Count Steele smiled confidently again, "That's right, Prophet. ”

This time, the crowd split into multiple routes to fight.

The Foresters outflanked from the bottom, the Siddlers attacked the base from the middle, and the Vakiri went south from the top.

Not all the nobles of the Lorfen Kingdom are in Pig's Trotter City, and the Duke calls on the rest of the people to protect him, but the territory of the rest of them is being violently attacked by Lawrence at this time!!

The nobility of this era was loyal to the higher nobles because they could be blessed.

Even if it is to send troops to fight, it is to fight a foreign war, or to suppress rebellions elsewhere.

It's not about giving up your own territory to protect others.

Barbarians are not so noble, and there has never been any patriotic education to restrain the thinking of these barbarians.

In the world of barbarians, it is the supremacy of profit.

Why should the nobles who could not protect the interests of the lower lords be supported by the lords?

Now there are only two paths in front of the nobles of Pigtrotter City.

Come out and fight a decisive battle, or give up your own territory and your people.

If Duke Redra could not protect the counts and baronies under his command and could not let these people continue to be nobles, then these people would not work for him.

Of course, there is a third way, which is surrender.

Lawrence was quick to get a meal break, while also keeping an eye out for movement around Tranta's Hoof City.

At about eight o'clock the next morning, the Tranda Hoof City Legion, having finished eating, launched a surprise attack.

The Combined Legion of the Church of the Stars quickly shot and thrown.

An army of a hundred wild boars stepped on the ground with a chaotic roar, and the group of huge beasts made Lawrence and the others feel an unrivaled terrifying power.

"Stand back! Fight while retreating! ”

Lawrence quickly rode back on the black unicorn and ran to the safety of the rear to command.

The method of fighting while retreating has long been popularized among the barbarians, and there is no need for Lawrence to command precisely, as long as the general policy is explained, these people will fight by their own fighting instincts.

The group soon ran out on mounts such as wild boars and domes.

The speed of the big wild boar was not fast, the two sides were already six or seven hundred meters apart, and before the big wild boar rushed over, five or six hundred people scattered in an orderly manner.

These people are not in a hurry to escape, and they know the endurance and running speed of a beast like a wild boar.

Both the towns of Siddle and Phumixiu raised large wild boars, and several major generals often rode large wild boars to charge, plus the Sdel and the Vakiri people were well aware of the data of the boar army.

On the contrary, it is the regular legion of the Kingdom of Loven, who has always been unclear about the fighting style of the Star Church.

When the boar began to stop to rest, the cavalry in the distance quickly rushed over, harassing and seducing on the flank like flies, throwing stones at this side.

Soon a large wild boar rushed directly at the lone cavalryman.

No matter how the knights on the back of the boars cried, these boars did not stop.

For the Great Boar, the solitary domes and the humans in rudimentary clothes are weaklings that can be attacked casually.

Like those slaves who ate in the city, the IQ of the great boar could distinguish between the weak and the strong.

Soon the big boar in the legion was seduced by the knights on both sides and in front of him, and angrily rushed to crush the garbage.

"Stand back! Stop it! Stop it! The knight on the back of the great boar quickly stopped the boar beneath him.

But the boars that were stoned did not stop, and they only saw one or two knights, so they dared to rush forward.

The army of wild boars soon became chaotic, and more than a hundred large wild boars chased them out in different directions.

These large wild boars have limited endurance, and at most they will stop after chasing more than a hundred meters.

But this is the battlefield!

The Boar Legion, which was supposed to break through the enemy's position, was redeployed, and the infantry and knights in the rear soon found that the main force of the Star Church had gathered.

"Rush!"

Both sides knew that there had to be a fight, and at this time no one surrendered, and no one talked nonsense.

First of all, there was a salvo of archers, and there was also the harassment of the slingling troops.

There are also boar riders who control the big boar and rush towards this side, but they are quickly dropped into the pit that has been dug long ago.

The ranged troops were too small to suppress them, and the people of Tranda Hoof City also died a dozen people and quickly rushed over.

"Stand back! Get out of the way! The Stahl shouted quickly.

Lawrence's men quickly relinquished the battlefield and now began to attack by the rested Boar Knights!

Earl Steel's boar knights charged, giving the infantry in the rear an advantage with a powerful charge.

The boar legions on both sides soon mixed together.

The fierce battle did not make the big wild boars crazy, but because of the chaotic battle between the wild boars and humans, many big wild boars did not dare to approach here, and only wanted to stay away from this side.

Lawrence watched the chaotic battlefield, because of the uncontrolled wild boars, causing the battle on both the Tran Hoof City and his side to become cautious.

"The Great Boar is only suitable for charging and intimidating and looting, not for real war."

Lawrence's eyes were on the big boars and the domes and the reindeer.

In battle, barbarians are not frightened by flying stones and arrows, but livestock do.

Humans are better than animals, but the gene of not being afraid of death does not last long, and only fear of death can live longer.

Soon the men of Tranda Hoof City began to retreat, and their first counterattack failed.

If you fail for the first time, you will become more and more powerless later, until you finally fight to the death.

Both sides began to trim and count their losses.

Lawrence came to Steel.

"Stahl, you'll do the rest, you don't want a broken Tranda Hoof City, do you?"

The deal between Skst and Lawrence was to trade Skerr's Territory for the city in front of him.

"Yes Prophet!" Steele excitedly said, "If you can take this place quickly, you can continue to attack now!" ”

Lawrence smiled, "I think you should send someone to talk to the nobles in the city, for example, after you become a duke, your subordinates will need some barons to help manage the fief in addition to the earl." ”

"I don't think those baronial knights in the city would mind you being a duke."

"If you become the Duke of Trandahoof, we won't have to fight, and we can all continue our good lives."

Naturally, Stahl had no opinion, and quickly sent his cronies to negotiate.

Lawrence and Pigtrot City are actually not familiar with each other at all, and Barbarian nobles like Stahl are their own people.

If they can surrender, the barbarians will come up with their traditional arts.

Whoever doesn't let these warriors live a good life is their enemy. (End of chapter)
