"waste!"

Berthasa threw out the leather water bag violently, and the water bag hit the commander Uke on the head, the water bag burst, and the water inside splashed Uke's face.

Uke didn't dare to show his atmosphere.

The two armies fought, and the vigilant rangers from both sides made contact first, and the double brown wild boar was defeated.

If the number of enemies is greater than that of one's side, then the failure is justifiable, but the problem is that the number of wolf cavalry of the enemy is less than that of one's own side. Even so, one's own side still failed, with a battle loss ratio of 4:1.

Such a tragic battle loss ratio was not because of the boar cavalry and orc wolf cavalry pustule, but because of the harpies in the sky.

The harpies fly in the sky and look down on the entire prairie. When they find that there are more enemies than their own, they immediately scream and tell their companions below to retreat.

"Master High Priest," Uke bit the bullet and performed his duties: "Now, our cavalry has begun to show fear of war. I suggest to withdraw the cavalry scattered around the periphery and concentrate on advancing towards the enemy."

"Hmph!" After venting her anger, Berthasha calmed down a lot, and leaned back on the seat: "Just do as you said!"

Uke left, Berthasha leaned on the seat and her eyes flickered.

As a master spellcaster, Berthasa has investigative magic similar to the mage's Eagle Eye. She found that the enemy has 20,000 goblins, the main force is 3,000 gnolls, 2,000 wild boars, and 50 cannibals. magic.

The enemies seemed numerous, but in fact the only real threats were gnolls, wild boars, and ogres. Berthasha wasn't worried, she was even a little jealous.

Jealous of the enemy's equipment, even the goblins who are used as cannon fodder, the enemy army also has a spear, not to mention the other main monster army.

As for the brown-skinned wild boars, only the elite team has the standard weapons sold by humans, while the others carry their own "weapons", sharpened wooden sticks, severely worn hunting knives, dung forks...

Compared with the enemy, the brown-skinned wild boar is a motley army.

But it doesn't matter, as long as you defeat the enemy, those iron objects will fall into your hands, and you will have everything.

In the sky, the three harpies noticed the retreating wild boar cavalry, and quickly separated a companion to fly back.

In the camp of the monster army under the command of the Red Dragon, the harpies landed on the sentry tower as the command center, and came in front of their own commander, Ergo.

"My lord commander, the enemy has begun to tighten their forces and speed up their march."

"Understood, you continue to go back and monitor."

"yes!"

Ye Gou turned to the wild boar trumpeter: "Call back the wolf cavalry, the battle is about to begin."

After a while, the sound of the vast horn spread across the grassland.

The ears of the wolf man and wolf cavalry galloping on the grassland trembled, and they reined in their "horse" to listen. Judging from the duration and tone of the horn sound that this was an order to retreat, they turned around and retreated without hesitation.

On the other side, the hidden high-ranking Gnoll mystic, Mossa Mosskin, heard the sound of the horn and ordered the ogres to uncover the black cloth on the carriage, revealing the secret weapon hidden underneath.

There are more than one secret weapon, a special shield as big as a door panel, a special wooden barrel filled with kerosene, and a one-meter-long lead wire is connected to the wooden barrel.

"Distribute things."

According to the plan, the people hiding in the anti-reconnaissance barrier started to get busy.

In order to avoid being discovered by the enemy's reconnaissance magic, the anti-reconnaissance barrier that Mossa Mosskin and the mage group launched was not large, only hiding one hundred and fifty ogres and a small number of gnolls.

At this time, they were hiding in a low-lying place not far from the base camp. As long as they heard the order, they would immediately jump out and deal a painful blow to the enemy.

"Now, we need to be patient," Motha Mosskin murmured.

In the distance, in the underground space, the red dragon was lying on the ground, seemingly sleeping, but actually paying close attention to the situation of the battle.

For the first comprehensive battle of the monster army, Jose was not at ease, and had been paying close attention to it. At this time, the two armies were about to formally contact each other, and his attention was always on Yegou.

"Master! The Frost Ax barbarians have moved! They are riding towards the triangle plain!"

Jose frowned when news came from the harpy family.

"I knew there was something wrong with these barbarians."

He began to calculate the distance from the barbarians to the battlefield and the running speed of the horses. From this calculation, the barbarians would arrive halfway through the battle.

Want to wait for the monster army and the brown-skinned wild boar to lose both, and then sit back and reap the benefits

If the barbarian thinks this way, he will suffer a big loss.

Such a powerful barbarian clan was stationed on the west side of the Triangle Plain, how could Jose be unprepared.

You know, as early as a few days ago, Jose transported troops to the Triangle Plain through the underground passage, but at this time the army on the ground came from the Mordo Peak Forest.

Those troops who arrived early did not leave. They were led by the green dragon—Olivia, and hid in the underground cave not far from the battlefield.

As long as the barbarians show signs of attack, this hidden force will immediately pop out, catching the barbarians by surprise, and even have the opportunity to encircle and wipe out the enemy.

…………………

In the direction of the battlefield, the brown-skinned wild boar finally saw the camp of the monster army.

The brown-skinned wild boar priest team gathered around the high priest—Ber Shasha. This spell-casting team consisted of two high-level priests, six middle-level priests, and more than 20 junior priests. It was accumulated by Ber Shasha after long-term training. core strength.

At the same time, Uk, the commander of the wild boar, ran around the army on a wild boar and shouted: "Quick! Get ready for battle! Push out the war boars and tie them with rams!"

Hearing the order, the wild boar team moved out of the way, and the war boars guarded by special personnel were led to the front of the team.

These specially bred war boars have strong muscles and are comparable in size to adult bison. They are covered with layers of yellow mud, which is a layer of natural armor formed on their bodies by rolling in the mud all year round.

The wild boars are lined up in a row at the front of the team, and the trainers will equip them with ramming horns. The main body of the ramming horns consists of two parts.

One part is the fixing device on the wild boar, the fixing device is directly on the wild boar, and the rope and belt pass through the wild boar's abdomen and fix it.

The other part is the two ramming horns installed on the fixed device. The two ramming horns are arranged on both sides of the body. They are as thick as an adult's thigh and three meters long. To match the charging speed of the wild boar, the two ramming horns are two knight spears. It's the kind that doesn't want to die.

After installing the ram, the breeder took out a handful of special hay from his pocket and fed the hay to the war boars.

Not long after eating the withered grass, the war boar's eyes were red, his nostrils were panting, and he was restlessly digging the soil with his front hooves.
