Undead Farm

Chapter 203
The ten brigades of the Third Army had a total of 1 people, including two brigades of heavy infantry, five brigades of light infantry, and three brigades of archers. They had already assembled under the city wall at this moment.

And the Freedom Squadron where the night shift is located is also an additional establishment like those adventurers who came from conscripts. They are not counted as regular soldiers. They are often organized into squadrons to follow the regular troops attached to them. They are generally called affiliated troops.

However, most people laugh at themselves as wild soldiers, because most of the time they are fighting in the wild, fighting blindly.

Ye San took a more cursory look, and there were at least 50 more squadrons like him, that is, more than 5000 people, more than the regular army!

But if you think about it carefully, you will understand that a large territory has a rigid levy quota, and a certain number of people must fight, while a small territory has to use a large number of people to offset the levy tax due to poverty. Territories can be exempted from service with gold coins.

This has led to adventurers and militiamen becoming the main force of the affiliated army. The reason why they are organized into squadrons is also due to the uneven strength of everyone. 500 people are the maximum limit that can maintain the basic structure and give orders. Any more will cause chaos.

At that time, the order will not be conveyed smoothly, let alone fighting with people. After all, this is a war to wipe out the pig-headed people, not a village fight.

In the middle of the night, he searched and brought the team to the back of the first brigade, where there were already four subordinate squadrons waiting for orders.

"This is the First Liberty Squadron? Has it been reduced to filling in with goblins?"

The adventurers next to them looked at the strange team in the middle of the night, and couldn't help but point their fingers.

"Hey, to beat a pig-headed man and bring a group of pig teammates, life is so difficult."

"Why are you sighing, do you still have illusions about the Liberty Squadron? It's not bad if you don't hold back!"

"I'm quite interested in these goblins. Look, their weapons are big and wide. You're blind for nothing!"

"Hearing what you said, it seems to be the equipment of the regular army, hiss! Does the Liberty Squadron have such a background?"

"That guy with a stinky face seems to be crazy? No wonder, he likes to play with weird things. He didn't expect to come to fight this time, and even joined the free squadron that is rich in weird things!"

"Who is Mad Young?"

"You don't even know this? Young Master Kuang, but..."

"Hush! The captain is here!"

A cold-faced man walked up to the crowd with a helmet in his arms, his eyes fixed, and his voice exploded in the ears of thousands of people.

Ye Sangeng was surprised by this hand alone. It turned out to be a directional sound swing, a "small spell" that can make the sound reverberate within a certain range.

"I, Guo Minghui, the captain of the First Light Infantry Battalion of the Third Army. No matter what your origins, backgrounds, goals and careful thoughts are, since you have been incorporated into my subordinate army, forget all about them. !

Your only identity now is soldiers, my subordinates!Any code of conduct must be done in accordance with the requirements of the army, and there must be orders and prohibitions. Anyone who thinks it can't be done can come out now!I can let you go now! "

After a pause, Guo Minghui nodded when no one dared to move.

"Since no one comes out, don't blame me for being strict later. I will assign tasks now:"

"The first affiliated team is in charge of peripheral security work, the second affiliated team is incorporated into the first squadron, and the third and fourth affiliated teams are in charge of logistics support. They will be incorporated immediately!"

"Yes!"

After the subordinate army next door merged into the army phalanx and started to line up, a group of beggar army conspicuously stayed where they were in the middle of the night, and Guo Minghui patted his head.

"There is also the First Liberty Squadron, uh...temporary standby!"

Ye San rolled his eyes, this was obviously the rhythm of forgetting them.

According to his observations, most of the first affiliated team in charge of security are hunters, thieves and other occupations, while the third and fourth affiliated teams are mostly weak militiamen. It is not surprising that they are sent to be responsible for logistics, while the second affiliated team is Almost all of them are warrior professions, probably to participate in frontal combat.

Only their Liberty Squadron didn't seem to have any special skills, and they were shabby-looking, so it's not surprising that they were forgotten.

"The preparations are complete, please give instructions to the captain!"

The two squadron leaders stood at the front of the phalanx and shouted loudly, behind them were the soldiers of various squads lined up, with long guns everywhere, and their faces were solemn.

Guo Minghui nodded: "The first team, go out!"

As the heavy city gate slowly opened with the creaking sound of nooses, everyone couldn't help but took a deep breath and looked at each other.

After leaving this door, life and death are beyond your control.

The trampling army formation slowly stepped out of that line of defense like quicksand, directly facing a dense jungle.

Wild boar forest!
This thriving forest, which once provided wood and food to the Ironbacks, has become a hindrance to the march of the troops.

Whether there are wild boars in it is another matter, but there is a great possibility that there are many pig-headed troops hidden, and the way the human army responds to this is very hardcore:

cut!
The Fifth Battalion first sent five teams into the forest to investigate and guard. After waiting for about a quarter of an hour and there was no signal to engage in battle, each brigade dispatched all the militiamen from the affiliated army one after another, and started cutting down on the spot with sharp axes. stand up.

With the sound of trees falling, trees that had lived for unknown lengths of time were dragged out of the forest one after another, and a wide new road was forcibly opened up.

Tang Xiaowan, who was standing next to the middle of the night, nodded her head: "This commander is not too stupid. He also knows how to destroy forests, not just open forests. Otherwise, if the pig-headed man waits for us to enter the forest, he will catch fire, tsk tsk."

Although the orcs are known for their reckless battles, and the battles that can be solved by hand-to-hand combat are absolutely useless, but the pig-headed man is one of the variables.

They are ugly in appearance and cruel in character, but it must be said that they are a transcendent existence among the orcs in terms of IQ. Among them, the White Pig Tribe is a terrifying group with a mage rate of 50%!
You must know that even humans have only a 10% mage rate, that is, only ten of a hundred people can have the mage talent, and this is already considered a good existence among many races.

Therefore, in this battle of massacres, human beings must be more careful that the opponent will use everything to the extreme. It is the kingly way to gradually destroy the opponent's vital force with an upright teacher, and never give the opponent the opportunity to use any tricks!

"The first brigade, march 5 kilometers southwest! Then stay on guard!"

The scout squadron of the Fifth Battalion had been deep into the forest for a long time, but there was no signal to engage in battle, which surprised Ye Sangeng, and Guo Minghui's marching order was soon passed down.

And since they marched in a hurry, they probably saw the weirdness of the matter. This is already within the deep range of those scouts!
Didn't the pig-headed man think of ambush?
