Wolf Forest.

The King's Avenue is too narrow to speak.

Several forest tracking dogs suddenly appeared.

The sound of horses' hooves is not the sound of walking on the bluestone road of hard frozen soil, but the unique low sound of walking on the soil of the forest.

A horse emerged from the woods, followed by a second, a third, and a little while, a total of seven horses.

More forest hounds appeared, running in front of and behind them, sniffing.

The leading tracker dogs began to move away from King's Road and tracked them northeast.

"The untouchables went to the northeast. A freerider said.

"Leave a mark. Another rider said.

They were scouts, and they all had bows and arrows on their backs. However, they did not have any noble crest on their chests or collars.

It's a group of freeriders who have been called up on the fly.

Whichever nobleman wants to use soldiers, they can join.

The only lord in the Wolf Forest is the Glover family in the Deep Forest, and its vassals have many smaller families in addition to the branches, trunks, trees, and forests of the four major families.

The Glover family forces are the overlords of the wolf forest.

The large and small families in the wolf forest and on the edge of the wolf forest are under their control.

Their territorial range extends to the edge of Long Lake.

Beyond the long lake on the edge of the wolf forest, it is the territory of the Amber family in Fireplace City.

"The knights of the Branch Clan said that the man in black they encountered last night had a magic sword that was as sharp as clay, what do you think?" laughed one of the freeriders.

"If they don't say that, how can they get by on the face? The noble knights are like this, it's okay to bully us in normal times, but when they encounter the bloodthirsty and tyrannical aboriginal tribes in the forest, they will be exposed. The little rider laughed.

"yes, they've all been disarmed by a bunch of indigenous tribes, which is ridiculous to say. The noble soldiers of the Deep Forest Fort have been pampered for too long. ”

"Aren't the noble soldiers all victorious generals at the wine table?" laughed a freerider without a helmet.

"No, there is also the girl's nest, they are still the warriors in the girl's nest, when the tax is collected, they are always invincible in the face of the defenseless villagers. ”

Hahaha!

Seven freeriders laughed out loud together.

With laughter, they left a mark and chased after the hounds.

Soon, the sound of horses' hooves was mixed, and a motley cavalry appeared, led by the cavalry of the Branch family that had broken up last night, and they recruited free riders, mercenaries, and private cavalry of the small family in the name of Lord Glover of Deep Woodburg and the four nobles of Branches, Trunks, Trees, and Forests, and soon amassed nearly two hundred cavalry, some of these cavalrymen were brightly armoured, some were simple chain mail, and some of the poor mercenary riders were only wrapped in leather and had no armor. However, as long as this killing mission is completed, the rewards of the four nobles will not be less, maybe in addition to the golden dragon and the silver deer, you can also get a second-hand armor or something.

The Deep Forest Fort is hundreds of miles away, and the four nobles also live by the sea in the depths of the Wolf Forest, and if they want to go back and bring in the rescue troops to encircle and suppress the Mudun tribe, these cunning untouchables have long been hidden. In the wolf forest, every time the untouchables were encircled, the infantry did not have a speed advantage, and had to rely on cavalry to flank them. In order not to be far away by the Wooden Shield Tribe, it is the fastest way to recruit large and small families and freelance riders mercenary riders along the road.

In just one night, there were nearly two hundred cavalry, half of whom were archers.

This is also to deal with the mysterious man in black, and the cavalry of the branch family specially asked everyone to bring bows and arrows.

It's just that the mysterious black-clothed man with a black magic sword in the branch cavalry said that the private cavalry team in the small family didn't believe it, let alone the free riders and mercenary riders, they just gave face to the defeated and frightened noble cavalry, and didn't laugh to their faces.

And the cavalry of the branch family, who had been replenished by the fierce cavalry, had a great increase in confidence, no matter how powerful the man in black was, he was just one person, as long as he was discovered, an order, dozens of people fired a volley, and that guy became a hedgehog.

It was nearly noon, and the motley army of cavalry came to the place where the scouts had left their mark, so they turned and galloped northeast. To the northeast is the direction out of the wolf forest, and the more you walk, the more sparse the woods become, the easier the road becomes, which is exactly the most desired route for the cavalry. The cavalry tracked, fearing that the people of the Dalit tribe would go to a place with many black thorns, or simply flee to the Wolf Forest Mountains, and once they went up the mountain, the speed advantage of the cavalry would be gone. Horses are also not allowed to enter the steep mountains.

"They went in the direction of Long Lake, wanting to enter the territory of the Amber family. It seems that they thought we couldn't cross the line to chase after us, haha, what a bunch of stupid pariahs. The Captain of the Branch Cavalry shouted.

The cavalry burst into laughter: those untouchables were stupid enough to think that they would be fine if they left the territory of the Deep Forest.

In the face of the untouchable tribes in the wolf forest, whether it is Shenlin Fort or Fireplace City, the opinions of the lords and nobles are unanimous, once they offend the nobles, there is no forgiveness, and the authority of the boundary of the territory can be ignored for the time being. Whether it's Fireplace City or DeepWood, everyone is a vassal of House Stark.

"Target Long Lake, speed up!" shouted the cavalry captain.

The woods are getting thinner and thinner, and the cavalry can run at full speed.

The cavalry agreed, and everyone whipped their horses and galloped in the direction of Long Lake.

The sound of horses' hooves drowned out the sound of a bowstring, and in the midst of the gallop, an arrow flew in front of the leading cavalry captain.

The captain of the cavalry was hit in the chest by a huge force, and the man flew backwards, and the cavalry behind him dodged one after another, and the team was suddenly in chaos.

Bang!

The captain fell to the ground, already dead.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

The vice-captain, who had risen temporarily after last night's rout, shouted: "Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

Sou!

An arrow flew and pierced the neck of the vice-captain.

The vice-captain fell with a bang.

The captain of a family's private cavalry team saw the ornament of the shadow lynx on the arrowtail feather, and shouted: "Array, it's the roaring stone people." ”

The cavalry team immediately set up their formation, those with shields raised their shields, those with long swords drew their long swords, those who were accustomed to bows and arrows took off their bows and arrows, drew their bows and arrows, and the ranks quickly formed a charging formation, although there was some confusion, but it was very fast. Shows the high fighting qualities of the mercenaries and freeriders.

The horsemen at the back of the group heard the roaring stone people blocking the way in front of them, and immediately turned around and walked back.

Whoosh!

Several short black arrows flew out, plunging into their unprotected bodies with unmistakable accuracy.

Ahhh

Several screams rang out, and several poor acid mercenary riders who wanted to fish in troubled waters behind the team fell to the ground.

"There's someone in the back, too. One of the Branched cavalrymen in charge of the broken tail shouted.

Whoosh!

This shout was accompanied by a rain of arrows from all directions.

More than a dozen cavalrymen without shield protection were hit by arrows, and several war horses without armor protection were also hit by arrows.

For a moment the screams of the men and the neighing of the horses rang out.

All around, all the roaring stone people in ambush appeared.

The entire cavalry team fell into the encirclement of the Roaring Stone Miners!

Strangely, this time, the Roaring Stone People did not rush up in a hurry, but held their ground.

This is something that all the mercenaries and freeriders, as well as the large and small noble cavalry in the wolf forest, have never seen and never heard of.

The Roaring Stonemen are a rabble with no tactics, no military discipline, and no concept of positional warfare.

A person is a dragon, and a group of people is a pot of insects.

"Don't panic, break through with me. The cavalry captain of a small family raised his sword and shouted.

He was the first to charge forward.

Then, he heard the roar of a shadow lynx a hundred meters away, and a man in black suddenly appeared on the back of a huge shadow lynx that was rarely seen, and rushed towards him.

The captain of the cavalry reined in his might, the horse that was screaming in panic and wanted to turn around and flee, raised his sword and shouted, "Archer, prepare—"

The dozens of archers behind him immediately drew their bows and arrows, and under the order, they aimed at the man in black and the shadow lynx together.

Although the sudden appearance of the shadow lynx and the man in black is terrifying, a salvo and a rain of arrows can shoot the lynx and the man in black into hedgehogs.
