Chapter 9: Wolf cavalry raid

Views:

Roddy can be sure that the orc camp in front of him is the first sharp tooth that the orcs have extended their tentacles to the Karen Kingdom—because of its existence, the orcs will gradually encroach on the border villages of the Karen Kingdom in the next few years, until about three years During the civil strife in the Queen Kingdom, a large-scale war of aggression completely started!

Although Rody, who is determined to save the kingdom, has a passion for it, he understands that he is not yet qualified to explain the profound significance of this humble camp to others. After all, he is only a first-level legionnaire. "Who would believe what he said

He needs strength, he needs the right to speak, and he needs to become stronger.

Thinking of the shock he gave to these scouts at the shooting range today, Rody coughed lightly and said, "This should be a typical small orc camp, judging from the number of tents... there should be twenty-eight to thirty-four people. "

"There are traces of simple animal pens outside the camp, which proves that the opponent has wolf cavalry, and there are eight of them."

"The opponent's combat power is not strong, and the wolf cavalry has gone out to patrol, and there should be about 20 people left behind."

These words startled all the scouts—although they could occasionally see orcs from far away on the border, or get some information about these barbarians from the rumors passed on by word of mouth, none of them could really One glance at those tents gave such an accurate judgment.

What's more, they certainly remembered what Rody looked like before yesterday - he was a coward who was so frightened that his face turned pale when he saw wild wolves, how could he have the attitude of a veteran who calmly made judgments at this moment

But thinking of the horrific scene of him hitting all 12 arrows in the same place today, and then beating Ruger, and thinking of what he did before, they had to believe in a fact...Roddy, it was not as simple as imagined.

"You...I—I mean...if we attack, do you think we have a chance?"

As the captain, Carter wanted to say a few words to maintain his prestige, but obviously he lacked confidence, so he simply changed his tone and asked the words politely.

Rody frowned and looked ahead for a while, then replied cautiously: "I don't think we have any hope of fighting hard, and there is a possibility of encountering the opponent's cavalry at any time. Wolf cavalry usually don't go too far, because they—"

Before he finished speaking, he turned his head suddenly, pulled the reins violently when all the scouts didn't know what to do, and said to them in a hurried tone: "Quick! Get down! Don't stay here!"

Carter frowned, but followed Rody without hesitation and turned around and rushed down the bottom of the grass slope, hiding out of sight of the orc camp, but the military quality of the group was not as good as Rody imagined. There were two scouts. Poor riding skills, even after commanding the horse for a long time, he still couldn't get down from the top of the slope immediately...

Roddy thought he would suffer—although he didn't see anything unusual in his field of vision just now, he would never forget the unique sound of footsteps landing when the wolf was running, which proved that the expected orc cavalry nearby was approaching. !

Although the orcs here in my memory are all level 2-4 scumbags, those cavalrymen have been the nightmare of all novice players-they have strong mobility. Once attacked by wolf cavalry, if they do not have enough long-range power, ordinary players cannot Contest... Even the 10th-level legionnaires holding heavy shields can hardly resist the sprinting blow of the wolf cavalry!

"Damn it!" Rody heard the wolf's attack in the distance and suddenly stopped trying to hide it. He knew that the other party had discovered this team, so he stopped evading, but immediately shouted: "Get out of here! Hurry up!" Hurry up!"

At this time, Rody couldn't care less about asking Carter to give orders. He knew that if he was too late, the whole army might be wiped out. The words in his mouth unconsciously carried the power of the former "Shadow Hunter", making the soldiers They obeyed unconsciously.

He glanced at the distance, and immediately sorted out a reasonable evacuation route based on his memory. He turned his head and shouted: "I know the route to leave safely, follow me, and no one should look back!"

Of course Carter knows who is the most reliable at this time, and instinctively responded: "Everyone, keep up!"

The team started immediately, and as soon as their horses charged up to speed, a group of rapidly advancing black shadows suddenly appeared on a short slope in the distance...

The wolf knights of the orcs really outflanked them as Rody expected!

Those wargs were not as tall as war horses, but they had a sturdy figure like a calf. Together with the fierce orc warriors on their backs, they were full of momentum.

The scouts who heard the strange noise behind them turned their heads, and they were frightened immediately. They immediately kicked the horse's belly and followed the team. The three new scouts who joined the second team just didn't quite understand why Captain Carter said something to Roddy. He obeyed, but now he really understands the reason...

The number of these wolf knights was as accurate as Rody's judgment! No more, no less, exactly eight!

A sense of fear rose from the bottom of their hearts... If it wasn't for the decisiveness under Rody's order just now, I'm afraid they would have been bitten by those guys heading straight down the hillside!

With this in mind, the scouts couldn't help but feel a little grateful to Rody, but when they looked back, they found that Rody's route was a bit weird at the moment—they didn't understand why Rody's "safe exit route" was always On some rugged hills, it stands to reason that the horses can run the fastest... Shouldn't they find a gentle downhill road

They don't know that although the orc wolves are powerful and powerful in short-distance, their stamina is far inferior to that of war horses. At this moment, the scouts are basically climbing the slope, and those wolves will become weaker due to their size when climbing the slope. Slower, the advantage of short-distance pursuit has been dragged down a lot. Once the kilometer distance fails to catch up, the horses on the flat road will definitely be able to throw these exhausted wolf troops away.

Because of the long-term peace in the Karen Kingdom, the combat methods and characteristics of these orcs have long been forgotten, but Rody knows this clearly, and there is another reason why he chooses to go uphill: those wolf knights are not just because of the charge. And it is unparalleled, and has a powerful "net throwing" skill. Once the running horse is wrapped in the net, it goes without saying what will happen. So at the top of the slope at this moment, the wolf cavalry's net-throwing skills are also restricted, which virtually allows the scout team to avoid another major risk.

Roddy's seemingly simple tactical order contained combat wisdom that Carter and the others could not think of in a short time.

At this time, he took the lead, crossed the last point of the long uphill, and then led the team to sprint down an extremely long slope. When the downhill appeared, the orc wolf cavalry, who had been depressed and unable to catch up, seemed to finally see a turning point , the leader roared, trying to sprint to catch up, but then found that his own wolf was exhausted, and even stuck out his tongue out of breath in the process of going downhill...

As a result, they watched helplessly as the distance from the human scouting team was opened again, and they screamed in an extremely dull voice for a while...

However, the arrogance and stubbornness in the orc's bones kept the wolf cavalry from giving up. After a long downhill, Rody had already turned around to confirm the identity of the other party—the unified black wolf, which should belong to the orc Rohar's Hammer. Troops, their identities are similar to Rody's at this time, but the orc kingdom is a tribal system, and their "chiefs" are similar to the Duke who is currently sitting in Hollier City. They are all powerful figures, and their scope of power is wider than the Duke Be big.

Rough clothes, rusty scimitars, and wargs without armor, Roddy has judged that the level of these guys will not exceed level 5, which is the lowest level of wolf cavalry. Just in conjunction with the impact of the wargs, the attack power of these orcs is at least four or five times higher than that of ordinary orcs. It is by no means an easy task to deal with them.

Rody wasn't surprised that the other party pursued them closely. After dealing with the orcs for so long, he had already figured out the temperament of these green-skinned savages. So he immediately decided to lead the scout team to turn uphill again...

The advance speed of the team suddenly slowed down a little, and the wolf cavalry in the rear immediately closed the distance.

They screamed strangely and chased after them excitedly, but when they also stepped up the slope and raised their heads to look forward, they suddenly realized...they seemed to be controlling the rhythm of the entire battle by the opponent.

Ahead, Roddy's team had already reached the top of the slope, and immediately began to turn around!

The leader of the wolf knights at the bottom of the long slope sensed that something was wrong, and when he wanted to give orders to the wolf cavalry next to him, he saw the leading human being forty or fifty meters away suddenly straighten his waist, and raised a horn with an obvious orc style in his hand. bow…

At the next moment when the leading orc didn't react at all, an arrow pierced through the chest of his strong body with a "poof" sound!

Because the warg was rushing forward at this time, the power of the arrow was increased invisibly, and the huge momentum brought his body backwards, and he lost his balance in an instant, and fell straight to the warg—

The following wolf knights had no time to dodge, so they stomped on his body. Under this superimposed damage, the captain of the strongest wolf cavalry died without even making a sound!
