"The movement of the mountain barbarian army is within our expectations. Didn't the tiger Ross send a messenger to report that there are many mountain barbarian spies peeping in the black forest area between the rock castle and the crouching cow hill fortress?" Is it? Except for breaking through the black forest, there is no other direction for the mountain barbarian army to enter our family territory. Don't look at the mountain barbarians gathering hundreds of thousands, to be honest, I really didn't take them seriously. Playing against me is like bullying a child, it's no match for victory!" Lorist exclaimed to Terman while washing his face.
"Uh..." Terman scratched his head, and felt that Lorist was right. The mountain barbarian army, which lagged behind the family's armed forces in all respects, was indeed far behind the family's armed forces in terms of numbers and bravery. In Terman's impression, the long wall defense battle that took place a few days ago was not even as threatening to the family's armed forces as the Warcraft wave back then.
In Terman's view, the long wall is too long, and there are only two guard battalions with more than 6,000 people guarding it. Seriously speaking, the defense force is very weak and the number of troops is insufficient. If the mountain barbarian army, with a thousand-man brigade as the main force, spread out to attack the seventy-mile-long long wall, it would not be difficult to capture the long wall. But the single-minded mountain barbarian used a large army of 10,000 people to divide into five teams to carry out key attacks on the five locations of the long wall, and concentrated them all in one fucking area. They were so stupid that they couldn't be more stupid.
The two defending guard battalions used steel crossbows in chariots to carry longbowmen to quickly rush to the area under attack. Only a thousand people could easily block the attack of nearly ten thousand people under the city wall, and then they used steel crossbows and longbows to fight against the enemy. The mountain barbarian warriors who lacked long-range attack weapons launched a turkey-like massacre, causing heavy casualties to the tens of thousands of mountain barbarian warriors who attacked the long wall. I remember that Terman and some bear knights were watching the battle on the long wall, and I felt pitiful for the attacking mountain barbarians under the long wall...
Lorist took Terman to the top roof of a building in the middle of the long wall, held up the binoculars and looked at the opposite side carefully for a long time, and asked Terman, "When did the mountain barbarian army divide?"
Terman thought for a while and replied: "It should be around four or five o'clock in the morning. The soldiers on duty found that there was movement from the mountain barbarian army. They thought they were going to attack at night, so they reported it. I was awakened and went up the city wall. , When the fog in the mountains and forests cleared up, we found that there seemed to be a lot less mountain barbarians camping in the distant mountains. I walked along the long wall again, and through the binoculars, I found that there were almost few mountain barbarians camping on the opposite side. I killed more than half of the mountain barbarian soldiers, so I made sure that the mountain barbarian army has been divided, so I went to report to the adults."
"Okay." Lorist threw the binoculars in his hand to the guards beside him: "Let's see in the evening, if the mountain barbarian army is really divided, there won't be so many bonfires at night. We will then Wait a day, if you find that there are fewer bonfires at night, you can be sure that the army of mountain barbarians is really divided. Terman, we will lead the Angry Bear Knights to detour to Guishan Fortress tomorrow morning, and go around the mountains in front of us along the Lancang River. If we launch a surprise attack from behind the barbarians, the battle here will be over."
When night fell and the mountain barbarian troops standing in front of the long wall didn't know how to hide, and only lit less than a quarter of the previous bonfires, everyone was convinced that the family was about to win. On the second day, Lorist led a large group of guards to attack from the Guishan Fortress, and accompanied the Angry Bear Knights along the bank of the Lancang River to the rear of the Shanman tribe.
The process of raiding the barbarian camp in front of the long wall was lackluster. None of the barbarians would have thought that instead of hiding behind the long wall, the armed forces of the Norton family would go around behind the camp and launch a surprise attack. Those mountain barbarian patriarchs of the Confidence Ten Clan thought that the garrison behind the long wall was already owned by the Norton family's armed forces, so they could rely on the despicable long wall defense line to resist the previous attack of the mountain barbarian warriors.
Although they don't know much, the patriarchs of these mountain barbarian tribes know that they can no longer rely on their numbers to attack the long wall in front of them. The blood of the mountain barbarian warriors cannot be shed in vain on the land in front of the long wall. So after interrogating and luring those flat land merchants who were willing to lead the way for the mountain barbarian army, they quickly chose another road. It is said that it can reach the Norton family's territory directly, and the only trouble is to pass through the Black Forest for dozens of miles.
Although there were still about 40,000 mountain barbarians remaining in the camp in front of the long wall, the mountain barbarian army that split up and went to the Black Forest to seek a breakthrough took away almost all the young and brave mountain barbarians. Most of the people left in the camp were either the old, the weak, women and children, or the lightly wounded rescued by attacking the long wall a few days ago. To put it bluntly, these barbarians didn't even do the defense of the camp, not to mention fences and walls, they didn't even dig a trench. Only a few rows of variegated tents made of various animal skins were set up for the wounded in the camp. The other mountain barbarians camped around the campfire, no matter men, women or children, all over the mountains and forests.
When five or six thousand knights of the Angry Bear Knights were wrapped in thick steel armor, and even the tall and handsome mounts appeared in front of the more than 40,000 mountain men in shining vests, as expected, the mountain man camp immediately collapsed. No one can stop these steel monsters. When some mountain barbarian warriors who were brave enough to sacrifice themselves to cover others from escaping were trampled into flesh by these steel monsters, many cowardly mountain barbarians lost control of their bladder and bowels, slumped on the ground and howled miserably...
The Guards Battalion soldiers guarding the long wall who had been prepared for a long time sent troops to attack on both sides with the Angry Bear Knights when they saw the signal, and quickly captured a large number of mountain barbarians. To Lorist's disappointment, he didn't capture any of the patriarchs of the mountain barbarian tribe, nor did he behead a mountain barbarian priest who was equivalent to a great swordsman. It's not that there are no such people in this mountain barbarian camp, but that the patriarchs and priests of these mountain barbarian tribes are very smart guys. When they saw the angry bear knights rushing, they left many mountain barbarians very wisely. Run away early.
After simply cleaning the battlefield, Lorist led the Angry Bear Knights to attack Liangshan Town again unwillingly, and once again made dumplings for the thousands of mountain barbarians who stayed in Liangshan Town unsuspectingly. This time Lorist finally saw blood, because it was a street fight, so the knights of the Angry Bear Knights were only responsible for guarding the roads and besieging Liangshan Town. The mountain barbarian defenders who were huddled in the residential houses were expelled from the houses and became prisoners obediently.
Liangshan Town has become the logistics headquarters of the Shanman army, but the seizures are not rich, mainly some special medicinal materials and some miscellaneous things from the Demon Dragon Mountain Range. emergency food. The war habit of the mountain barbarian tribe is that each soldier brings his own food for seven days to go into battle. If there is no food, he usually collects it on the spot and eats it wherever he goes. The tribe does not have to bear the rations, weapons and other materials of the mountain barbarian warriors unless it is a last resort. . Except for healing medicines, everything depends on looting, not being able to get it just means that as a mountain barbarian warrior, he is very incompetent...
Therefore, the mountain barbarians responsible for defending Liangshan Town are basically slaves and mountain barbarian warriors who have made mistakes, or young and old mountain barbarian warriors. Under the fierce attack of Lorist and others, These thousands of mountain savages basically collapsed at the first touch, and they became captives of the Norton family without causing any casualties to Lorist and others.
"Retract the troops, take the prisoners and the captured ones, and we will go back to the Fortress of Woniugang. Next, we will go to the tiger Ross to wipe out the mountain barbarian army along the way." Lorist gave an order to Terman.
In the middle section of the avenue from Rock Castle to Fenglin Mountain Villa, there is a small lake formed by an underground spring next to the road a little closer to Rock Castle. The lake is not big but a bit deep. The lake water is clear and cool. Take a rest by the lake and drink some lake water to relieve the fatigue of the journey. This place was also the Black Forest area where Lorist first encountered the mountain barbarian cavalry after returning to the family territory.
After four days, the army of mountain barbarians who split up and detoured finally passed through the black forest and appeared beside the small lake. As the continuous army of mountain barbarians swarmed out of the black forest, they soon surrounded the small lake densely, circle after circle. This is understandable, after four days of trekking in the dense forest, all the mountain barbarian warriors were tired and thirsty. The most terrible thing is that this black forest should be regarded as a relatively dry area, without creeks and pools. The mountain barbarians who had been looking for water in the forest for the past four days had to dig deep pits to get some muddy water, or pick some bitter leaves and stuff them into their mouths to quench their thirst. Now that such a clear small lake was discovered just after leaving the Black Forest, all the mountain barbarians were overjoyed.
This time, there were more than 30,000 mountain cavalry in the 70,000 mountain barbarian army. They walked in the back with the chiefs of various mountain barbarian tribes and a few noble priests. Walking through the Black Forest, all the mountain barbarian cavalry had to dismount and lead their mounts, and they could not get on their horses and march until they approached the edge of the Black Forest when the trees were sparse.
When the patriarchs and priests of the various mountain barbarian tribes walked out of the black forest, the mountain barbarian warriors in front automatically gave way to escort these noble mountain barbarians to the small lake smoothly. After taking a sip of the clear lake water, as the commander of the mountain barbarian army this time, the patriarch of the Habibaba tribe, Daqiang Basen nodded with satisfaction: "Very good lake water, very quenching thirst, but this lake is so small, the lake water is enough Do our warriors and horses drink?"
A man dressed as a businessman beside him replied respectfully: "The noble and invincible Daqiang Bassen, I have walked this road many times, and I know the situation of this small lake very well. Please don't worry that the water in this lake will not be enough. , There is an underground spring under the lake. No matter how many people drink it, the ground water will keep the lake at its original level, and the water will be replenished as much as it is used. Please don’t worry about this, I dare to guarantee it with my life... "
"Hahaha..." Daqiang Bassen laughed: "You are very good, you have brought us a good road. Well, what's your name? Forget it, I can't remember the names of you flatlanders, don't worry , I will reward you with the gold you led the way. Let me ask you. Is this the heart of the Norton family's territory?"
"Honorable and powerful Daqiang Bassen, thank you very much for your generosity. Your loyal servant Ben Rahz salutes you. Yes, this is the heart of the Norton family's territory. To the south is Rock Castle, to the north is Poplar Town and Maple Forest Villa, to the west are seven towns and nearly a hundred villages in Fengleyuan. Except for Rock Castle, the defense forces in other places are very weak. The Norton family armed forces are fighting another big bus in Winston Province and Southern Province. It is what your people on the prairie who came to visit you at the end of last year called their Grand Duke. Therefore, it is impossible for the defense forces of these towns to stop these powerful and brave warriors under your command. They are as helpless as those weak girls. help lie before you, waiting for you to lead these warriors to conquer them..."
The businessman named Ben Rahz bowed respectfully. He was detained by the Habibaba tribe when he went to the mountain to do business last summer. Under the threat of a bloody ax and the temptation of gold, he chose gold and promised to give it to the mountain. Man Dajun led the way, because he had been in the mountains all the time, so he didn't know the situation of the Norton family, and he didn't know that Lorist had already returned to the family territory with the family's armed forces.
The words of the merchant caused a group of mountain barbarians to laugh wildly, Daqiang Bassen laughed out of breath: "Well, what is that called Ben, you speak very well, like a helpless girl, hahaha, this word I love to hear it. But now it is evening, and the sky is about to darken. Our warriors have been on the road for several days. Let’s take a good rest by this small lake tonight, eat and drink, and keep up our spirits. Tomorrow Go deal with those helpless girls. Hahahaha... "
Daqiang Bassen's words caused bursts of cheers from the mountain barbarian soldiers, and soon piles of bonfires were lit, and the mountain barbarian soldiers took out the dry food and food they brought with them, and roasted them casually on the fire to cool off. The water of the lake began to eat and drink...
Suddenly, the sound of a loud horn echoed between the sky and the earth, and then the sound of war drums came from all directions. All the mountain barbarian warriors stood up in a daze. In the twilight, a black banner embroidered with a golden tiger with two wings flashed into the eyes of all the mountain barbarian warriors.
The merchant jumped up in shock: "Impossible, why did the Flying Tigers appear here? Not good, we are ambushed, run away..."
"Escape?" Daqiang Basen grabbed his clothes: "You led us into ambush, you deserve to die!"
A sword stabbed the merchant to the ground, Daqiang Bassen roared: "Why panic, everyone gather to meet the enemy! Don't forget, we have 70,000 troops!"
It's just that the Flying Tiger Legion didn't give the Shanman army much time to prepare. The chariot and steel crossbow corps took the lead in attacking, and the arrows rained down. The Shanman army turned on their backs and fell to the ground row by row. There are indeed 70,000 mountain barbarians in the army, but if they can't get close to people, they are still a target. The mountain barbarian soldiers started to retreat involuntarily, but the chariot steel crossbow corps pursued closely. Under the command of the regiment commander Doles, the chariot steel crossbow took two steps forward and shot two arrows, and kept maintaining a tight grip on the mountain barbarian army. The overall suppression, when three or four thousand mountain barbarian cavalry risked their lives to attack the steel crossbow line of the chariot but were shot into arrow targets in public, the mountain barbarian army was defeated like a mountain, and all the mountain barbarian soldiers ran back. I want to stay as far away from the bolt storm as possible...
It was only when the Black Forest in front of them appeared in front of them that the mountain barbarians discovered that there were three long rows of steel monsters in front of the Black Forest who were all covered in steel armor and even their mounts were covered with armor. Terman yelled: "Raging Bear Knights, attack!"
The horn sounded, and Dolles ordered the chariot steel crossbow to stop firing and stay on alert. At this time, the tiger Ross on the left, and Pachiko on the right, each with five or six thousand armored spears, like two sharp knives piercing the left and right ribs of the chaotic army of mountain barbarians...
Lorist drew his sword, pointed at the chiefs and priests of the mountain barbarian tribe who were the most gorgeously dressed, with the most beautiful headdresses and feathers in the middle of the mountain barbarian army, and shouted loudly: "Our goal is there ,kill!"
On May 4th, 1779 in the common calendar of the Galintia continent, the Norton family armed forces defeated an army of more than 100,000 mountain barbarians who invaded the family territory, and captured countless prisoners.
