Chapter 62: Assault

By noon the next day, everyone had already packed up their gear and was ready to go.

Lei followed the horse to Wang Yong's side, looked at the bandit leader who was tied into zongzi and thrown on the carriage, and said to Wang Yong: "What should he do? Don't you plan to contract him too?"

Wang Yong shook his head and said: "I asked Wani, the fighting spirit of this product is not very good, Wani said, it is estimated that this product will only be promoted to a junior warrior for two years, and the combat effectiveness is not very high, and the contract is too wasteful for him." ”

Lei said worriedly: "That's not good, my medicine doesn't work well for him, he will run away when he has the chance." He's of no use to us at all, and we can't let a couple of you junior professions watch him all day, can we?"

Wang Yong said helplessly: "I haven't figured out how to deal with this goods yet, it's a pity to kill it, let's stay for a few days, if it's useless then, it's not too late to solve it." Hey, I wouldn't dare to use such a person even if he surrendered, it's really difficult. ”

This bandit leader has been shouting to surrender and follow Wang Yong, such a soft bone, Wang Yong can't look down on it at all, so he has to take it all the way first, and talk about it later.

Don't look at what Wang Yong just said when he dealt with the bandit leader in the future, what he said was taken for granted, Wang Yong sometimes sighed secretly: "In the past, I didn't even dare to kill a chicken, but now I don't care even if I kill someone, it seems that the environment can really change people." Wang Yong didn't know whether this was good or bad, he didn't want to make excuses for himself, so he had to go with the flow, and at the same time remembered a song: "Let the weak know how to be cruel"

Regan also felt that what Wang Yong said was reasonable, so he stopped mentioning the bandit leader, but asked about another matter: "How about the knight slave that John said? Shall we buy him? The knight's defense is very high, and the contract will be your human shield?"

Wang Yong said helplessly: "I want to think about it, but the knight has no grievances with us, I really can't do it, unlike these bandits, I won't be soft when I kill 10,000." Then he continued, "Also, now that we don't have much gold, we have to pay another five thousand gold coins to buy that knight, which is also a big expense for us." ”

Wang Yong paused for a moment and continued: "Today, let's try to destroy a medium-sized bandit group and all the small bandit groups nearby, if there is enough time, and then the last medium-sized bandit group in the southern part of the territory will also be wiped out overnight, and then the entire southern part of the province will be under our control." At that time, let's see how much gold we can scrape from the bandits, and if it's enough, send someone to buy the knight back and make him work for us, and if he doesn't want to, forget it, and let us save a poor man." Lei He nodded with satisfaction, very satisfied with Wang Yong's answer.

Today's task is very difficult, a total of two medium-sized bandit groups and six small bandit groups have to be destroyed, fortunately, the distance between these bandit lairs is not very far, or not only rush, a day is not enough.

Since many bandits ran away during the sneak attack on the four small bandit groups last night, it is estimated that the other bandits will soon get the news that someone is wantonly swallowing up other bandit groups. Therefore, today Wang Yong and the others did not divide into four teams to attack, but only divided into two teams, one team of fifty people led by Vani and Kevin, specifically to eliminate those small bandit groups, and the rest of the people were led by Wang Yong and went straight to the medium-sized bandit group.

In order to hide their strength, Wang Yong and the others have already discussed, each team is limited to one junior profession, so that the escaped bandits think that Wang Yong and they only have two junior professions, which is very beneficial to future actions.

In order to prevent other bandits from recognizing him, Wang Yong deliberately cut John's hair short, and covered his face with linen, and gave John a new name, called 'Hongzhong', as for Wang Yong himself, he acted as the spokesperson of Hongzhong.

Da Blowing and Carl protected Lei Heel, escorting grain, grass, and supplies behind the team, and the journey was leisurely.

In order to save time, Wang Yong also equipped the cannon fodder with horses, galloped all the way, and at about two or three o'clock in the afternoon, the group finally arrived at today's goal - the lair of the Big Horn bandits.

The lair of the Big Horn bandits is a very ancient cottage, built in a good place near the mountains and rivers, and to the east is a shallow stream about ten meters wide, the stream is not deep and crystal clear.

To the west of the cottage is a fifty or sixty-meter-high mountain, and the vegetation on the mountain is lush and lush, which is the first time Wang Yong has seen such dense plants in his own territory.

From the foot of the mountain to the halfway point of the mountain more than 20 meters high, there are smooth cliffs, which can be described as a ghostly smoothness, and at the same time, it also forms a natural hazard, so that the bandits do not have to worry about the enemy attacking from the mountain. The mountain forms an angle with the river, and at the top of the corner is the cottage of the Bighorn bandits.

The cottage is surrounded by a stream to the east, a mountain to the west, and a frontal defensive wall surrounded by a row of coarse timbers to the north, and a large expanse of open land outside the wall.

Wang Yong liked this place at first sight, and secretly decided in his heart that when he was here, he would come here like a temporary station. The environment here is much better than Billy's cave, and the cottage-style buildings between the mountains and rivers are much easier to defend.

But how to attack this cottage in the same painting, Wang Yong also has a headache, there are no flaws in the front and back, left and right, and Wang Yong doesn't know where to start.

The Big Horn bandit group has obviously gotten the news in advance, and after seeing Wang Yong and others appear, the gate of the cottage was closed, and no one came out, only a figure could be seen shaking on the wall.

Wang Yong observed for a long time and didn't think of a specific plan, and when Lei and the others who were escorting the grain arrived, Wang Yong ordered to eat first, and then ran to Lei and discussed to see if he had any good ideas.

Lei He, Wang Yong, as well as Da Blow, Carl and others rode horses, and after carefully observing the cottage of the Big Horn Bandit Group from a safe distance, everyone returned to the team with a solemn face.

Lei said worriedly: "We don't have heavy weapons to attack the city, if we attack strongly, the casualties will be very large, and we don't have enough people." ”

Wang Yong nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, I also thought of attacking with fire, the walls of the cottage are all wood, but we don't have so much oil." The crowd fell into deep thought, and for a moment there was silence around them.

After a while, Wang Yong saw that everyone hadn't thought of any good way, so he said with a resolute face: "Time is running out, if we wait until the bandits in the north get the news and unite, we will have no chance of winning, let's attack strongly." I don't think the gate of the cottage is very strong, as long as we can break through the gate and rush in, with our strength, it is not difficult to overthrow those bandits, although the casualties will be very large, but there is no other way. ”

Lei nodded with Wenyan and said, "That's the only way to do it, how to do it?"

Wang Yong pondered for a moment and said: "We have thirty militiamen here, let them hold shields, use crossbows to suppress the archers on the wall as much as possible, and I will let Hongzhong cooperate with them." The cannon fodder are equipped with shields, and they storm the gate in loose columns, and I take four minotaurs to mix in the cannon fodder, as long as I get to the gate, I want to use the strength of four minotaurs to smash the gate open. And then there will be nothing, after the cannon fodder goes in, our militia shoots the bandits on the wall first, occupies the commanding heights, and the rest is a desperate matter. ”

Da Fu asked expectantly, "What about us, what are we going to do?"

Wang Yong pointed to the gate of the cottage and said, "I will give you twenty people to continue to protect Lei He." When we all rushed in, you were guarding the gate, and if there were bandits who escaped, you could kill them, and if you couldn't catch up, you would run away. "Dabuki and Carl are both militants, and they are a little depressed to hear that their mission is only to ambush outside.

Lei said to Dabuki with a smile: "You know, although there were very few people who escaped at the beginning, but in the later stage, I believe that there will be a lot of people who escaped, and at that time you were still worried that you would not be able to play?"

After a simple meal, Wang Yong assigned tasks to the militia and cannon fodder, and when everyone was ready, the crooked queue began to move slowly, until the bandits' bows and arrows were at their farthest range.

The bandits on the wall had already discovered Wang Yong's actions, and now the wall was full of bandits, each of them holding a rough bow and arrow in their hands, staring at Wang Yong and the others with a wary face.

At this time, a middle-aged bandit shouted to Wang Yong and the others: "Where did you come from, our ally the brothers of the Dongshan Bandit Group will arrive soon, it is a dream to capture this place with your manpower, it is better to leave quickly, we may be able to make friends in the future." ”

When Wang Yong heard that the Dongshan bandit group was coming to support, his heart sank at the moment, but now there is no way out, and the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to his side.

In the end, Wang Yong gritted his teeth and shouted with a wave of his big hand: "Start attacking." ”

Having received the order, the militiamen who had already stood in a horizontal row, as well as the cannon fodder assigned to them, all raised their shields and slowly advanced. They advanced nearly a hundred meters, and only after they were within range of the crossbow did they begin to remotely suppress the top of the wall.

The bandits on the wall saw the militia approaching, and they had already begun to fire their bows and arrows. There were a lot of people on the wall, but fortunately, there weren't too many who could shoot arrows, which was the same as the number of people on Wang Yong's side.

After the first round of fire, a few people fell on both sides, but when the militiamen gained a foothold, stood their huge shields on the ground, and the men hid behind the shields to return fire, the rate of casualties dropped considerably.

Wang Yong couldn't care about hiding his strength at this time, and after releasing a fire-based magic shield, he screamed, and rushed to the gate with a group of cannon fodder.

The minotaur raised a large shield and carried a sledgehammer on his back, following closely behind Wang Yong. The cannon fodder did not rush over all at once, but under the dispatch of Lei He, they just rushed out about 20 people.

When Wang Yong rushed to the gate of the cottage, half of the twenty or so cannon fodder had been hung, and Niu Si was also hit by an arrow in one arm.

Wang Yong asked the surviving cannon fodder to take over the large shields of the minotaurs and raise them above their heads to defend against the feathered arrows shot from above, and Wang Yong also continued to release magic 'summon heavenly' to attack the bandits on the wall. This magic is used in this kind of terrain, and it can be bombarded without having to face those bandits.

Wang Yong and the minotaurs rushed over together, but there was no way, because the minotaurs were stupid one by one, if no one commanded, maybe the gate would not be opened, and even they themselves would be shot into a sieve.

At this time, Wang Yong also controlled Hongzhong, standing at a safe distance to attack those bandits who looked like the leader, and Hongzhong alone almost suppressed half of the archers on the wall, fully reflecting the horror of the magician.
