Chapter 0359: Trebuchet Angai Kills Orel
Hovering high in the sky is a King Mountain Eagle of the Seon Mountains, which is so large that it likes to attack lambs and humans, so the Night's Watch also calls it the Marauding Eagle.
The eagle swept past the Ancestral Fist Peak and flew towards the Ghost Forest in the south.
The eagle eye is sharp and can spot rabbits in the grass at high altitudes.
As soon as the raiding eagle arrived, the sound was loud, piercing through the air, and the king was overpowered, and the birds in the sky and the small beasts in the forest and meadow scurried and disappeared cleanly.
The little beasts on the ground can see clearly, not to mention the cavalry team on the ground.
In the Ghost Forest, there is no shortage of trees.
Trees of all sizes are found throughout the forest.
In some lakes and villages that have been abandoned by wild people, some fish beams can also be found.
Although the fish beam is not large, it is a trace of the existence of a belief in the wild man and the child of the forest.
The raider saw that the rangers of the men in black were not all black, but some were also wearing cloaks of other colors, and these people stopped marching and were cutting wood.
This made the raider decide to hover and fly lower, trying to see better.
It saw some Rangers building wooden frames with skillful movements, the architect-savvy clerks of the Men in Black Legion.
The Ghost Forest is very large, thousands of miles long and hundreds of miles wide, and there are many open spaces in the forest.
The Rangers who built the tall wooden tower were in an open area.
One of the wooden towers is already taking shape, resembling a giant trebuchet.
Trebuchets are used to siege cities, so what are the Night's Watch cavalry legions building trebuchets here for?
It is not far from the Ruhe River, and a few miles to the west is the Ancestral Fist Peak.
The raider eagle flew lower and lower, and had already caught the attention of the legionnaires on the ground.
The Raider Eagle was not afraid of anyone spotting him, and the eagle was controlled by the wild man Oriel on the other side of the Rue River.
The eagle is Aurel, and Aurell is the eagle.
The predatory eagle is a bird of prey.
An ordinary sword would not hurt him, and his eyes were sharp, and he could melee knights and shoot bows and arrows.
The raiding eagle hovering low in the sky saw clearly the army of men in black on the ground, and counted the horses and crowds, there were indeed about a thousand horses.
This is a huge legion that has never been seen before, especially cavalry.
In the Night's Watch Legion, there is only one horse for every three men, and one Ranger for every three soldiers.
In this way, the strength of the Great Wall is at least more than 3,000. The other 2,000 troops were infantry.
Those rumors that no one wants to believe are true!
The wildlings had already received all sorts of news that the new governor of the Great Wall of Desperation was no longer Jeo Mormont, but a guy named Will Cao. He persuaded all the Roaring Stone Folk of the Wolf Forest Mountains to descend the mountain, and the Roaring Warriors were incorporated into the Night's Watch Legion, and those who were not warriors settled on the land of the Night's Watch. It is said that this alone increased the number of soldiers to the Night's Watch by 3,000, and the Night's Watch's land, which had been barren for many years, by tens of thousands of inhabitants.
The Raider Eagle was confused, what were the Night's Watch building siege trebuchets here for?
Behind this logging and construction team, another cavalry corps was slowly advancing.
The Raider Eagle flew over, and he saw that it was a supply legion.
About three hundred horsemen, driving twice as many pack horses as they were. On the back of each pack horse is a bulging bag.
So many horses?
Where did the Night's Watch Legion get so much money to buy horses all of a sudden?
The Night's Watch is suddenly unbelievably rich!
Military supplies!
Military supplies alone, three hundred cavalry escorted the advance.
This has never been heard of before!
Aurel is not only a shapeshifter, but also a warrior. He had fought many battles with the Night's Watch Rangers, and had a general idea of what was going on at the Wall.
The strength of the Night's Watch legion, suddenly, increased almost tenfold.
*
In the right front of the Ancestors' Fist Peak, on the edge of the Ghost Shadow Forest, a cavalry team camped in the woods on the north bank of the Ruhe River.
This is a reconnaissance team sent by Mance Red.
The entire savage army, dragging families and driving cattle and sheep, with a total number of more than 60,000, can advance about five miles a day. The total strength of the savage warriors was six thousand, of which five hundred cavalry. If you count the mammoths of the giant clan, it is only eight hundred cavalry.
"What do you see, Orreel?" asked the weeper with a large, sharp scythe.
Lying on the ground, Aurel's eyes rolled and bulged, and he said, "I saw their cavalry, the cavalry that was supplied, and the legion of rangers who cut down trees to build trebuchets. ”
"Trebuchet?" said the weeper.
"Yes!"
"What are they building trebuchets for? siege the city?"
"Fool, trebuchets can even break walls, what would those stones look like if they fell on our heads?" a girl sneered, her voice sharp, mercilessly mocking the weepers and Oriel's stupidity.
The Weeper and his eight guards were stunned.
Fight with trebuchets in the Ghost Forest, the Night's Watch for the first time ever.
The only open spot is the Ruhe River.
On both sides of the Ru River, a large area is not shaded by trees.
When the large army of savages crossed the river, the trebuchets on the opposite bank fired in unison, and countless stones fell in volley, even the giants could not resist.
This trick is so vicious!
They never thought of it!
The girl continued: "We should cross the river tonight and make a surprise attack and set fire to their slings. Our army is in the tens of thousands, of which the elderly, children, women, and herds of cattle and sheep are crowded together, and if they set up a series of trebuchets on the north bank of the Ru River, we tens of thousands of freedmen will not be able to cross the river. ”
"Ygritte is right," said Aurille, "we raided tonight and set fire to their wooden frames. Kill them first and get off the horse. ”
Weepers and Hawkeye Orrell joined forces and brought three hundred cavalry as scouting vanguards.
*
Will watched as the raider eagle flew from behind again, and said to Blackgirl Ash, "Order Angai to shoot this raider eagle down." ”
"Yes, sir!"
*
In a towering tree, among the dense foliage, there was a man who held a longbow in his hand and a sharp arrow on it. The eagle eyes of the predator mountain eagle were sharp, and because he was flying low, he saw this guy.
The predator eagle made a high-pitched chirping, he had been attacked by too many arrows, his wings were like iron, and his eagle feathers were like leather, and even a small arrow could not hurt him.
The raiding eagle suddenly plunged down, as fast as lightning, to shoot down the sneak attacker in the big tree.
His claws were as sharp as a sword.
There was a lot of uproar in the forest!
The Raider Eagle has the courage to attack people, but it is a lone man, and there are so many people on the ground, he also dares to come down and attack, which is a strange thing that seasoned veterans and croup fighters have never heard of.
Oriel decides to give the enemy a dismount and kill the dastardly sneak attacker in the tree.
Nation!
With a sound of the bowstring, a long arrow whistled out, calculating the route of the raiding eagle.
The predator eagle was not afraid at all, his wings flapped, and he hit the arrow feather.
Sou!
The arrow was slightly off, but the force was amazing, and the speed was as fast as lightning, beyond the imagination of the raiding eagle, and with a poof, the long arrow still hit the raiding eagle's chest and pierced through.
The raiding eagle roars!
The strength and speed of this arrow surpassed all the arrows he had faced before, it was too fast.
Burst!
Without warning, a second arrow struck through the wings of the raiding eagle, piercing through the hard feathers like tissue paper, and hitting the eagle's body.
In the forest, there was an earth-shattering cheer!
Arrows!
This is something that the raider eagle has never seen. An arrow has just arrived, and another arrow has arrived!
Raider Win hurriedly flapped his wings and fled quickly.
However, it was too late, and the third arrow arrived, faster than lightning, and a black shadow flashed, hitting the eagle's head, passing through one eye and out on the other.
