Will had not yet met with the Wooden Shield team, and the right wing cavalry of the three nobles still overtook the Wooden Shield team with the help of a slight speed advantage.

The cavalry of the three major families have also lived in the wolf forest for generations, and their skills in driving war horses in the wolf forest are unique.

After a few moments, the pursuing cavalry on the right flank would be able to reverse and turn around from the flank and front, striking the wood-shielded team head-on.

And the sword and shield soldiers on the left flank are not far from the team of the wooden shield, as long as the cavalry intercepts it, the sword and shield soldiers can immediately catch up, and the team of the wooden shield will inevitably collapse if they are attacked from both sides. The two sides fought, and it didn't take long for the pikemen at the back to arrive, and the team of the wooden shield was in danger of being wiped out.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Will kicked the horse and galloped through the wolf forest.

After a while, a group of beastly refugees appeared in front of them, led by wooden shields with strong muscles and quick movements. Looking at his sturdy posture, no one would believe that he was hit by a crossbow arrow in the leg a few days ago.

"Wooden shield!" Will drew his sword.

It's not the night, it's the noble sword that Harris gave him.

The night hung on Will's right hand, without a scabbard, and because it was black, it was barely visible under Will's black robe.

The people around Mu Dun raised their weapons one after another, and let out a beastly cry at Will.

The wooden shield stopped them.

"My lord, swear in the name of the ancestors and gods, does what you said to me a few days ago still work?"

"In the name of the gods, old and new, what Will said never changed. ”

"My lord, but we have a lot of people this time. ”

"Twice as much is acceptable. Will said.

At present, the men in black are the most short of manpower.

You must know that the Great Wall of Desperation is 300 miles long and has a total of 19 military fortresses. Each military fortress is the main point of the defense of each section of the Great Wall, and it needs to be garrisoned to ensure safety. At present, there are only three military fortresses manned, namely the Shadow Tower, the second fortress in the west, the East Sea Wang, and the Black Castle in the middle. The rest of the military forts have been abandoned because no one is there, and some are so rotten that they can no longer be inhabited.

It was precisely because of the shortage of manpower that most of the defensive points were empty, and the wild people outside the Great Wall had the opportunity to climb the Great Wall to reconnoiter the terrain.

At its peak, the Night's Watch legion numbered more than 10,000 men, and there were soldiers stationed in all seventeen military forts, but now, there are less than a thousand. Eliminate the clerks, including carpenters, blacksmiths, farming, hunting, clearing land, farming, etc., and there are only five or six hundred people who can actually fight.

A battleable army of five or six hundred men, divided into three parts, guarded the Great Wall for 300 miles, and it is conceivable how weak the force is.

This is also the reason why the Night's Watch Legion has to ask for manpower in places such as the North and King's Landing, and when no one volunteers to join the Night's Watch Legion year after year, the criminals in the black cells everywhere have become the sweets of the Night's Watch Legion.

The excellent Euron rangers in the Night Watch Legion are responsible for escorting those who are willing to go to the Great Wall to be the Night Watch in black prisons around the country for many years.

Wooden Shield turned around and said to his tribesmen, "This lord's name is Will Cao, and he is a ranger in the Night's Watch Legion of the Great Wall of Desperation, and he saved my life, as well as the lives of the five of them. Wooden Shield pointed to the arrow wound wound on his leg, which still had a black fire mark, but the internal wound had already healed, "This is the crossbow arrow wound that Lord Will treated me, we all know that after being hit by a sword wound, the wound is easily infected and suppurated, and once it suppurates, we can either pray for the mercy of the old gods, or we can only wait for death." ”

More than a hundred people from the tribe looked at Will Cao with wild eyes.

They obviously didn't believe the black-clad guy on horseback, but they believed in the young leader, Mu Dun.

The young Mu Dun is not stupid, he knows that if he doesn't find a shelter this time, he is likely to be wiped out.

A teenager can become the leader of a tribe, which shows that the leadership ability, combat ability and personality charm of this wooden shield are very accessible.

Once the nobles of the Deep Forest Castle are determined to destroy a small tribe in the Wolf Forest for some reason, this tribe will either retreat to the territory of the Roaring Stonefolk in the north of the Wolf Forest, or they will be wiped out or disintegrated and absorbed by other tribes, and there is no other way out.

How long a small tribe can survive when it enters the territory of the Roaring Stonefolk is an unknown, maybe a day, maybe a year.

Will Cao said: "Brothers and sisters, in the name of the old gods, as long as you join the army of the men in black, we will be brothers in life and death from now on. ”

"My lord, the pursuers of the three nobles under Lord Amber have arrived, and even if we join, it will be too late. An elderly tree farmer said.

With the sound of hooves, the cavalry on the right flank of the three major families had already overtaken the wooden shield team and began to turn, turning back from the front and rushing straight to the wooden shield team.

Will said, "Brothers, swear in the name of the old gods, are you afraid of death?"

"Don't be afraid!" more than a hundred people said in unison, and the women's roars were as sharp as spears.

Will said, "Brothers, as long as you take the oath to join the Night's Watch legion, no one in the kingdom will dare to touch you again, and they dare to kill the Night's Watch at will, it is a violation of the law. ”

"The laws of the kingdom are only afraid that they are not binding in the wolf forest, especially in the face of the nobles under the lord of the deep forest castle. The old tree man said.

"Then I will fight with you, live and die together. Will raised his sword and said abruptly.

Wooden Dun jumped on the branches of the tree like a monkey, stood on the wooden fork, raised his long sword and shouted, "Live and die together!"

"Live and die together!" the people of the Wooden Shield Tribe shouted in unison, and the battle spirit was high, and the momentum of panic and death before was gone.

Courage came back to them again.

In front, the twenty-five cavalrymen of the three major families slowed down, lined up in a line, and slowly walked towards the wooden shield team. They were in no hurry to charge, buying more time for the sword and shield men and pikemen behind them to catch up.

A few irascible and heroic treefolk could not bear to be trapped, and pounced on it, taking the initiative to engage in the battle. Will hurriedly urged his horse to stop them, and pointed his sword forward, asking them to go back, and these treemen became wild, and immediately surrounded Will, and lit up their weapons.

The young leader, Mu Dun, stopped them in time.

This is a rabble with no tactics, no rules, no formations, no formations of their own, facing the soldiers.

Their individual combat power is very strong, and when they are combined, they become a plate of loose sand that consumes each other.

Will said, "Don't panic, everyone, I'll go talk to their commander first." Long weapons such as spears and sticks are all lined up in front to deal with cavalry, swordsmen and short swordsmen are all back, lined up in two rows, and against the enemy's sword and shield men and pikemen, archers and crossbowmen are in the center, and support on both sides. ”

Wooden Shield immediately repeated Will's words in the tribal language.

The treants did immediately, and this was perhaps their first time learning how to set up.

Will motioned for the wooden shield to restrain his men, and he drove his horse forward, and the commander on the opposite side saw Will's black clothes, war horse, and noble sword, and he raised his hand, and the team stopped.

This is a well-trained cavalry, although small in number, but not to be underestimated.

The cavalry contingent blocking the way in front was in no hurry to attack as long as the enemy did not find a way to break through. The voices of their companions, the sword and shield men and the pikemen, had been heard, the banners had appeared, and the encirclement had become a momentum.
