Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 423 Entering the Forest

"kill!"

"Wow, woof, woof, woof!"

In the dense forest, a group of kobolds kept barking, and a mixed team composed of phantom shooters, war dancers and ordinary half-elf soldiers had a fierce battle with an orc team. Several orc warriors hiding in the forest held The hatchet came out, fighting with the two war dancers and the kobold half-elf soldiers.

In the meantime, a cold arrow shot out from time to time, each of which could take the life of an orc warrior.

Originally, this team of ten orcs was lurking in the forest with the advantage of the home field and was going to destroy the scouts of the human army first, but they were smelled by the kobolds in advance and locked their positions.

Immediately, more than ten sharp arrows were shot at a pile of trees and dense leaves. Originally, it was difficult for these ordinary bows and arrows to cause effective damage to the armored orcs, let alone in the forest, the half-elf shot No matter how accurate it is, you can't directly pass through several trees and then complete the armor breaking.

But just when these orcs thought that these arrows were not threatening, a sharp arrow with completely different strength shot out like a white rainbow, and an orc who looked up was directly covered with such a visor. The thickness of the visor was not as thick as the body The heavy armor shattered immediately after being concentrated by the arrow, and then the sharp arrow went straight into his face, and finally shot through.

Before the orc warrior had time to utter a terrified cry, he just opened his mouth and was speechless. He, who was half-bowed and facing forward, was dragged behind by the arrow. He fell on his back.

The other hidden orcs also knew that they had been exposed, and after they stopped hiding in the leaves and weeds, several crossbows that had already been wound up were shot out, whistling and shooting down the three nearest kobolds and the two half standing half behind them. The elf warriors, however, were quicker to dodge the phantom shooter and war dancer, and quickly hid behind a few thick trees without suffering any losses.

Afterwards, the orcs stopped winding, but rushed out with the hatchet at hand. Obviously, they were more confident in their melee ability, or maybe it was the phantom archer's magical arrow that made them useless to the opponent's long-range mutual consumption. confidence.

After all, in this short period of time, the Phantom Archer hit two shots twice, both of which directly hit the vital point and killed them with one arrow. The armor on the orc could obviously offset the damage of ordinary bows and arrows, but in front of the Phantom Archer, it was like paper, completely powerless to resist. .

It seems that the casualties of the orcs in the first round were relatively small, but one orc life on the battlefield can at least exchange the lives of four or five elite human soldiers, not to mention that the orcs in this forest are still elite. The exchange ratio is a shame.

The two sides were actually very close, within twenty meters the orc warrior rushed up, and the two war dancers who had been hiding behind the tree were also brandishing two heavy scimitars and carrying more than a dozen barking dogs. The barking kobold and several half-elf soldiers rushed up, only the phantom shooter continued to shoot cold arrows from behind.

That's how the opening scene appeared. In the dense forest, several eight orc warriors fought with a mixed team under Li Cha's command.

The kobolds moved very fast in the woods, and they rushed to the front of the war dancers. At this moment, they turned into fierce hounds and rushed towards the orcs.

"boom!"

However, the absolute power gap between kobolds and orcs is still too large. Although these kobolds are the strongest group in the group, they are still vulnerable to orcs. They didn't even wave their hatchets. Kicked a kobold away.

This kobold who was less than 1.5 meters tall had no ability to resist in front of the orcs who were more than 2 meters tall. It turned into a parabola in midair. Just got kicked and broke the spine.

"Woo...woof!"

But at this moment the kobolds showed their fierceness in the battle. When they identified themselves as soldiers under Richard's command, the kobolds' desperate posture was not weaker than when they were driven by ogres, even They are also better at cooperating under Lint's training.

Taking advantage of the time when the orc kicked his companion away, he didn't use the pitiful short spear in his hand to try to pierce the thick battle armor on the orc, but directly attached himself to the battle ax in the orc's hand and bit it On the opponent's calf without armor protection.

"ah!"

The orc screamed in pain, and tried to kick the kobold out with his legs, but the kobold bit him even tighter.

"Despicable kobold, die for me!"

After speaking, the orc simply struck down with an axe, smashing the kobold's head off. Although these kobolds are fierce, they can only cause some trouble to the orcs at most. If there are only these kobolds, the orcs will spend a little effort at most, and they can completely solve them with a few minor injuries.

But it is enough for these kobolds to cause them a little trouble. When the orc warrior who had just killed the kobold looked up, he saw the arc light approaching his head, and the heavy scimitar of the war dancer was in front of him. The orc warrior quickly raised his axe He resisted, but the war dancer's scimitar changed direction strangely, and cut directly at his wrist, cutting off the orc warrior's palm holding the battle ax at the wrist. Then one turned around and the other scimitar slashed open the orc warrior's throat.

Originally, as a second-tier promotional unit, war dancers should be on par with orc warriors in strength, and even weaker than orc warriors in formation battles, but Li Cha's own advanced offensive skills have increased his attack power by a whole lot. In addition, Li Cha is now wearing the power of the Dragon King and several treasures. In terms of individual strength, the battle dancer has already surpassed the orc warrior by a lot. With the assistance of the kobold, he easily killed an orc warrior. .

The phantom shooter on the other side was not idle either, and shot two more arrows within less than half a minute of the battle, and the two orc warriors fell in response.

"Kill that archer first!"

"Bang! Bang!"

After speaking, some orc warriors threw throwing axes in the direction of the phantom shooter, but they were all nimbly dodged by the phantom shooter, and the ax hit the tree. After all, not everyone has the power and accuracy of the phantom shooter.

The phantom shooter is much more threatening than the war dancers and kobolds. It was luck to shoot one at the beginning, but if you shoot and kill four of them in succession, it is not just luck, it is a great terror.

The leading orcs wanted to deal with this threat first, but the two war dancers plus a dozen kobolds and half-elf fighters blocked them to death. They had no chance to get close to the phantom shooter, and they were defeated by the war dancers. The dancer killed two people.

When the last orc warrior died under the phantom archer's arrow, this mixed scout team hid in the forest again and began to continue exploring.

This skirmish ended with Li Cha's scouting team winning a big victory, annihilating an elite team of ten people, and the price paid was only six kobolds and three half-elf warriors.

And similar battles are constantly going on in this dense forest, and most of the time the scout team is led by the phantom shooter to win a big victory. In a short time, the orcs who believed they were familiar with the terrain were defeated steadily.

In a small open space in the middle of the dense forest, Li Cha, Kurtz, the four legion commanders, and a few heroes under him are stopping here, behind them is a densely packed army. There are heads everywhere.

After completing the military parade, Li Cha didn't stop at Dragon Scale Fort. His task was not to defend Dragon Scale Fort, but to lead the Northern Route Army to attack the eastern plateau occupied by orcs, so he didn't pay attention to Dragon Scale Fort and the surrounding terrain at all. After some understanding, on the third day, he led the North Route Army into the dense forest.

As for the fact that he acted earlier than Sol's Central Route Army dispatched, Kuz was more than happy to see that the Northern Route Army was originally a cover to attract the attention of the orcs. Attention is drawn to the North Road, thus sharing more pressure on the Middle Road and South Road.

It's just that Li Cha's actions were not supported by the four legion chiefs at the beginning, especially the veteran Alxi. According to him, the orcs have been operating in the northern dense forest for many years, and there are camps everywhere. It is extremely unfavorable. You shouldn't lead the army into the forest without thinking like this. Instead, you will form a stronghold outside the forest, and slowly send elites and scouts to explore, and then enter the forest after finding out the way for the army.

This is indeed the old man's suggestion, but Li Cha did not adopt it. He ordered the army to enter the forest directly because of Li Cha's forced order, and several army commanders could not resist and could only follow Li Cha's order to enter the forest directly. , but my heart is very disturbed.

Although the duke has many dragons under his command, the dense forest in the north is not a plain, but densely packed forests, and some trees are more than 10 to 20 meters high. If you take it slow, push it a little bit. They are obviously more confident, but they want to take such a radical action. Several legion commanders can only attribute this to Li Cha's youthful vigor.

Not long after entering the forest, they sensed the source of Li Cha's confidence. The army marched very smoothly. Not only was it not disturbed at all, even the traps were destroyed in advance. The whole marching process was extremely smooth, and the only obstacle was the rugged It's a mountain road, and the scouts under the duke actually cleaned up the orcs in the forest, which is simply unimaginable.

Facts have proved everything. After Li Cha has proved his wisdom with the actual situation, these army commanders no longer dare to question Li Cha's order. Obediently stood by and waited for Li Cha's next order.

After a while, several figures emerged from the woods ahead.

"Master Li Cha, the orcs in the forest have completely retreated, and the road ahead has been cleared."

The person who came back to report was Gru, a majestic legendary hero. At this time, he was wearing a disguise and led some subordinates to clean up the orc scouts in the forest.

Gru's behavior also accelerated the rout of the orcs in the forest. The army hadn't stopped for a long time and was about to move on again.

"Order the army, continue to march towards Langshou village! Take down Langshou village for me, I don't want to sleep in the woods tonight."

"Yes, my lord!"

"Order! Continue marching towards Langshou village!"

Soon, the order was passed down layer by layer, and the whole forest began to rustle again...

Langshou Village

Most of the scouts who were thrown out had retreated to the village, and the outer checkpoints were either destroyed or withdrawn to the village. All the surrounding orcs had gathered in this small village.

Adding the original 1,000 defenders, the number of orc warriors in Langshou Village reached about 1,500 at this time, although it sounds far from the number of 100,000 human troops. But generally speaking, with the advantage of the location of Langshouzhai and the superior fighting power of the orcs, it is the humans who should really have a headache in a fight.

But now, the situation was completely reversed. Almost half of the checkpoints and forest patrol teams outside the orcs were lost, and the remaining half that ran back also looked panic-stricken, obviously suffering a big loss in the forest.

The orc general was listening to the retreating team's description of the battlefield with a serious face.

"Those kobolds can spot us from a long distance away. It is completely useless for us to hide in the bushes. We have no chance to sneak attack."

"The human team is equipped with a sharpshooter. Archery is not only accurate, but also very powerful. I saw an arrow piercing directly through the captain's breastplate. We wanted to kill the sharpshooter first, but the kobolds and Some tall half-elf swordsmen stopped them, half of them would die directly under the arrows, and if we didn’t run, we would all die in the woods..."

"This is not a reason for you to retreat."

The orc commander of Langshouzhai shook the battle ax after he finished his question. According to the rules, the captain of this team had already died in battle. The ordinary soldiers ran back without taking back the body. What awaited him was death. .

It's just that now is the time when the troops are insufficient. After hesitating for a while, the orc commander put down the battle ax in his hand, waved his hand and ordered:

"All the soldiers who fled back will be organized into the punishment camp, and when the humans attack, they will all go to the front line."

"Yes, my lord."

"Thank you, my lord! Thank you, my lord!"

Although he was included in the punishment battalion, which had the highest casualties, it was the greatest luck to be able to escape for a while and survive for a while. The orc soldier who escaped did not have any complaints, honestly He was escorted by two soldiers to the punishment camp to report.

After the rout was taken away, the serious expression of the orc commander gradually turned into worry.

These forest patrol soldiers who were familiar with the terrain and ambushed in advance didn't even manage to slow down the human footsteps. They all collapsed in less than a day, and the human vanguard might be here soon.

"Command the army, cheer up, and prepare for battle!"
