Lord Witch, please don't resurrect me again!

Miller was overjoyed—apparently Leoric didn't expect me to attack from this direction!It's done!

He immediately got out of the bushes, raised his sword and wanted to shout "Attack!" But at this moment, he saw a very strange scene.

Above the main entrance of the Northern Expeditionary Army camp, there was actually a red banner hanging, on which was written in a very beautiful font:

Warmly welcome Your Excellency to attack our camp!

This... seems like the sneak attack plan has been exposed?

Miller froze in place, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.

Group 7 ② [-] wives

Chapter 140 Five: Cause of Death: Haven't seen the Three Kingdoms

Miller was stunned, and the other mercenaries didn't dare to show their heads, even some of them just showed their heads, and they shrank back for no reason.

Most of the mercenaries were illiterate, and they couldn't understand what was written on the banner, but a few generals who could read stood next to Miller, their faces pale with fright.Although Miller's mercenaries were brave and fearless bloodthirsty fighters, they were still shocked when they saw such a strange scene.This, isn't this an obvious way to die?

The soldiers were also confused. They all lay down on the wet soil and communicated with simple sign language.Because they only know a few simple words in sign language (after all, they don’t even know how to read characters, so they can’t speak sign language well), so they can’t convey information well, so the more they speak, the more anxious they become, and they gesture quickly like ninja seals. .

In short, most people advised the mercenary captain, "It's almost over, let's withdraw the captain."

But Miller had other ideas.

First of all, logically speaking, he couldn't swallow this breath.I have done so much preparatory work and drawn so much painstaking effort, why did I leave without killing a single person?I was scared off when I saw a banner, so how can I hang out on the road in the future?I'll be the laughing stock of people!

Moreover, this was a battle that cost one's family and life!Master Jagober and the pirates are pointing at me. If I withdraw, they will be finished.Once they are finished, the Jagbo family will be completely defeated in this battle, and Leoric will occupy the territory of Haiyan City.A few days ago, Leoric killed the pirate's messenger with a knife. Judging by his temper, he will definitely not continue to pay the protection fee, and will initiate a liquidation against us.If you get scared today, although you can save your life for a few days, you will be dead sooner or later!

Last but not least.There don't seem to be many people in Leoric's barracks?This is very strange, no matter how lax Leoric's defense is, there will be no one in the barracks?What's more, he already knew that I was coming to sneak attack, so why didn't he arm himself?What's more, Leoric is famous for his bravery. He is a mighty general who broke through the Crow King's [-] troops. If he knew that I was going to sneak attack him, he would definitely lead his troops to attack me himself!How could they pull up a banner to welcome me?

Weird!Is there some conspiracy?

In fact, this scene is only one short away from the empty city plan, but Miller has never seen the Three Kingdoms after all, and he does not have Sima Yi's "old treacherous and cunning".

Not reading is really terrible. Because of this, he made a very outrageous judgment in the eyes of everyone:

It must be that all of Leoric's men went to fight the water battle head-on, and the interior of the barracks was empty, so he had to use this trick to bluff and scare me away!After I reacted, his main force had already finished the water battle, and it would be impossible for me to rob the camp by then!

I must attack now, the clock is ticking!

This brain circuit is also very strange.

If Leoric was here, he would have sighed: If the old thief Sima had been as reckless as he was back then, he would have picked the strings of the prime minister's piano and plucked all the hairs on his fan, and he would have been hit by it. Lao Shizi's empty city plan?

This may be the best solution to the empty city plan, but Leoric is not the prime minister, and this barracks is not the West City.

So Miller shouted loudly: "My warriors, don't be afraid! Don't fall into Leoric's tricks, and follow me!" He grabbed the crystal sword and rushed in.Everyone didn't react, but since the head of the group took the lead in charging, they should follow suit?

The mercenary group launched a general attack on Leoric's barracks, and the Northern Expeditionary sentry at the gate hurriedly "blew the horn in a hurry" and "turned around and ran for their lives in a hurry".

I have to say that the combat effectiveness of these mercenaries is still good. They are composed of "hybrids" such as centaurs, half-demons, and half-orcs. The cohesion that mercenaries do not have.They are disciplined, follow orders, and have very good equipment.Everyone has two weapons "one long and one short", or an archer configuration of "one far and one short".Ordinary soldiers wear leather armor and chest armor, captains have chain mail, and all have mounts, ordinary people are pony horses, captains are barbarian horses, and some centaur soldiers don't need horses and can run faster than horses.

"Fire!" he ordered loudly.

Everyone took out the flint and quickly ignited the Molotov cocktails at their waists, preparing to set fire to the Northern Expedition Army's battalion.But at this moment, countless arrows flew from all directions, "Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!" The sharp arrows pierced into the chests of these mercenaries.Everyone screamed and fell to the ground, and many incendiary bombs that had not yet been thrown also fell to the ground, "Crack!" and burned on the spot.

The mercenaries were in a loose formation before rushing into the gate of the village, but the gate of the barracks was very small, and when they entered, the formation became dense again. Hundreds of people in the front team were all tied together, and the flames immediately became one.Then the Molotov cocktail exploded, like setting off fireworks, and the flames soared into the sky. The mercenaries screamed and turned into little firemen, running away in all directions in the barracks.The air was filled with black smoke and an eerie smell of burnt human flesh and leather.

Miller raised his head and saw a few elf archers hiding in the trees. These archers were far away and their bodies were painted with green oil paint, so Miller and others didn't notice them at first.

Just a few archers!Miller expected an ambush, but he firmly believed that there would not be many ambushes.

"Don't panic, disperse the team and continue to set fire!" he shouted.

The rest of the mercenaries scattered in the camp, looking for things like tents, trucks, grain and grass, and siege equipment to set fire to, but at this moment, there were bursts of hooves from all directions, as well as the roar of cavalry.

cavalry?Where did the cavalry come from, why didn't they find it just now?

Miller suddenly noticed that the gates of the northern expedition's barracks were all open, and cavalry rushed in through the gates. It turned out that these cavalry were ambushing outside the camp.He also saw two steep hills outside the camp, presumably the cavalry were hiding on the top of the hills or behind the hills.

How can this be!It's not that I don't have scouts, I have scouts too!Why didn't I find these guys at all?

Moreover, the angle of the hillside is so steep, if you dive down, you will fall on your back!

These two problems are actually very easy to explain - because Leoric's cavalry regiment is not hiding somewhere static, but "dynamically hiding" with the enemy's detection. To put it more bluntly, it is following the The enemy "hide and seek".

Romila's flower fairy can provide an aerial view, so Shia and Romila can know the enemy's movements. When the enemy scouts are coming, the cavalry can retreat; if the enemy leaves, they can move forward; With the perspective of the flower fairies, the commanders can even make a wonderful micro-manipulation of "moving the position of the electric machine gun five meters".

The second problem is the thinking error caused by the hardware gap between the two armies.Most of the mercenaries are equipped with pony horses. For pony horses that are not good at running and climbing, it is indeed impossible to fight on such steep terrain.

But Leoric's "Hybrid High Horse" and "Elf Buck Cavalry" did not have such concerns.These horses already lived in the mountains, how could they break a bone because of the steep slope?

Seeing the cavalry approaching, Miller felt flustered and excited at the same time, thinking: Well done!Do you think my centaur legion is paper?

Centaur is also a kind of half-orc. It is the product of the mating of humans and centaurs or demons and horses. The torso is human and the lower body is four horse legs. The absolute unity of humans and horses.But they are rare in number and rarely seen on the battlefield.Because Miller held high the banner of "Mixed Races United", he recruited many centaurs.Miller once relied on this centaur army to defeat the joint encirclement and suppression of three barons and an earl, and officially made a name for himself.

Ordinary plateau cavalry are no match for centaurs at all!The difference in height alone is a head, coupled with the unique "human and horse integration" of the Centaur Legion, so the movements are flexible and the position is coquettish, which is by no means comparable to that of the plateau cavalry.

Miller thought: The cavalry is the trump card of Leoric's Northern Expedition. As long as we can catch this wave of cavalry attack, the enemy's morale will collapse, and our army will surely win!

In order to win this battle, Miller spared no expense. He shouted: "Special War Order, three times blood money!"

When mercenaries do business, they are divided into four grades according to the commission, the first grade, the second grade, the third grade, and the fattest special grade.The mercenaries who participated in the special battle order, regardless of their performance, can get half a year's salary at one time; "blood money" is head money, kill a person, get a share of "blood money", three times the blood money is a head Can get three blood money!There is already a lot of blood money for the special war order, so if you calculate it like this, you can get rich if you kill one person, you can get rich and free if you kill two people, and you can retire where you are without worrying about food and clothing for the rest of your life if you kill three people!

The morale of the mercenaries is all about how much money they give, and there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and the Centaur Legion screamed excitedly under the heavy reward.Facing Leoric's cavalry regiment, they rushed forward!

With a roar, Miller also rushed up on his horse.

The Centaur Legion has a total of 1200 people. Leoric has 3000 cavalry. He left some to perform missions in Wild Wolf City. He brought about 500 people. Due to the narrow camp, he could not carry out a large battle, so he was an ambush knight. There are more than [-] people, which is about the same in number.

The number is about the same, the general goes into battle in person, and the Centaur Legion is self-confident as a "cavalry killer", so the morale is very high.White smoke rose from the excited nose.

But this time the mercenaries made the same mistake again - Leoric's cavalry regiment was different from the ordinary highlander's cavalry regiment!

The reason why the centaurs were able to rely on cavalry killers before was because the enemies were pony horses, and most of the knights on horseback were malnourished dwarfs. The height of man and horse was less than the neck of a centaur, so they must have hit casually.On the other hand, plateau people’s cavalry are all soft armor, leather armor or even cloth armor, that is, iron is used for shields and weapons. There are two reasons for this. The horsepower is too small, if you carry too much weight, you will be tired after running a few steps.

But Leoric's cavalry regiment was different.

This cavalry regiment is all high-footed horses, and the soldiers are all carefully selected macho men.These hunks are all full-time soldiers, and even have land and land at home, so they are full of snacks and drinks, and their average height has reached an astonishing 171cm. In this era of malnutrition, they can be called "giants".Some of them are "tough men" with a height of 180cm, and a few of them are 190cm. Coupled with the huge tall horses, they are really "tall".In contrast, the height advantage of the centaur is gone, and the strength is naturally not dominant.

One, they are so well equipped.

This is a cliché. Ever since the Crow King's equipment was seized, Leoric's overall equipment has formed a tendency to crush other plateau people.And these cavalry are all Leoric's baby bumps, so the best equipment is given to the cavalry.Two of the best sabers per person, one fine iron cavalry spear per person, and armor plastered from the knight's head to the horse's hooves.Even Leoric plans to equip them with the black technology of "Seravi Armor" in the future.Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, where is the "Iron Cavalry" with a thousand cavalry?It's like a thousand four-legged golden bumps.

Just this cavalry regiment is enough to beat the centaurs to regret coming to this world.

At this time, the two armies collided, and the iron cavalry and the centaur collided together!The centaur was surprised to find that the enemy was taller than himself this time, and the average person was an iron can, but it was too late now.

The men and horses could only growl and stab the spears in their hands towards the iron cavalry, and at the same time the iron cavalry also stabbed towards them.

As soon as the two armies collided, the height advantage of the Northern Expeditionary Army was reflected—the two armies also used stabbing guns, one stabbing downwards and the other upwards. Due to the different angles of force, the force effect was also different.The spears of the Northern Expeditionary Army stab downwards, and the high and low can press the weight up, but the men and horses are so low that they are at a disadvantage immediately.On the other hand, the "iron cavalry group" is full of heavy armor, and the weapons of the centaur are not strong enough. The spear can only pierce a spark, but cannot penetrate the armor; while the centaur army is all leather armor, with little chest protection, and poor defense A large part of it was cut, so each of them was poked into a heart-stopping cold.

At this moment, the sound of hammering iron, the sound of horseshoes, and screams were mixed together. The soldiers of the "Iron Cavalry" skillfully picked, stabbed, charged, and bumped. The horseshoes trampled into flesh; some were pierced by the huge piercing force;

The troops in the first row suffered heavy casualties, while the iron cavalry had almost no casualties. This gave Miller a blow, but now was not the time for fear and hesitation. He brandished the purple crystal sword and charged forward, shouting loudly to boost morale.

After the troops in the first row fell down, the others stepped up immediately, and the two troops mixed together for hand-to-hand combat.

Miller thought that in the ensuing melee, the mercenaries would be able to win back the city by relying on their sophisticated martial arts.Unexpectedly, Leoric's cavalry regiment showed even more terrifying combat effectiveness!

Bar ②7-6

Chapter 140 Six: Are you Leoric?

The first cavalry in the front line threw away their long spears, which were also made of high-quality steel, very expensive things, and this throwing made a rich man stand out.Next, the cavalry continued to show off their wealth and drew out two shiny sabers to fight.All these sabers are barbarian big steel knives!On the side of the plateau people, it is a good knife that the group leaders will admire, and it is a good thing that ordinary people would want to hang up for offerings if they get one.

In close combat, the cavalry just slashed with sharp sabers, and the gleaming sabers slashed in the crowd. As soon as the weapons touched, the centaur army was defeated again in the second round-these troops only had long-handled axes and long spears , but it is not as easy to use as a saber when it is close.Moreover, the handles of these weapons are all made of wood, and the saber will be broken in two immediately after being cut, which is impossible to beat.

At the same time, the leather armor of the centaurs was as fragile as straw paper in front of these high-quality barbarian sabers. The previous scene of the murlocs slaughtering pirates was reproduced here, but the murlocs killed them in circles, and the cavalry charged forward. .The broken weapons, severed limbs, horns and human heads flew randomly on the battlefield, and the soldiers and horses screamed again and again.

But once the cavalry charge started, they didn't look back and could only kill each other. In this way, the two armies confronted each other, leaving corpses all over the ground in the blink of an eye, and many wounded wailed on the ground.

Miller survived the charge by virtue of his skills, and he also killed two Crusader cavalry with his enchanted crystal sword.At this moment, he looked back, and saw that the people lying on the ground were all his own people, and there seemed to be only a dozen soldiers of the Northern Expedition Army. Oh, and two of them were killed by himself.Thinking about it this way, after a wave of charge, the Centaur Legion only killed ten enemies?A thousand cavalry, only killed ten?

No time to think, the second round of battle is about to begin!

"The squadron turned the horse's head, and the two wings outflanked!" The bearded cavalry commander roared, ordering the cavalry regiment to fight back; the others raised the command flag high and signaled the semaphore, and the cavalry immediately began to change their formation.

That was Growin of the Iron Cavalry, the oldest cavalry commander of the Northern Expedition.

The cavalry regiment has completely evolved, and the regiment leader is naturally stronger than before.

When Leoric went to the Land of Truth, he once got a book of truth called "Knight's Way", in order to build an invincible cavalry army.There are both formations and training methods. Given time, Leoric's cavalry regiment will definitely become an existence that makes even the barbarian cavalry fearful.But Leoric himself didn't have time to train soldiers, so he compiled the essence of chivalry, copied it out, and passed it all on to Growin.

After reading this knowledge, Growen immediately felt enlightened. He cried and said that most of his life was wasted. If he had learned the way of cavalry from General Leorick earlier, he would have formed the world's No. [-] soldier by now. One cavalry regiment.Plateau people will not be bullied by barbarian cavalry.

Growin was originally an experienced cavalry commander, and after learning these skills, he became even more powerful.Many things that I didn't understand before have now been figured out; the places that were wrong before have also been corrected now.At this time, Growen has new equipment, new horses, and new ideas!It's like being reborn.

Now, not to mention these mercenaries, even the barbarian cavalry came, and they had to weigh it up when they saw this bearded general.

I saw that the "Iron Cavalry Group" quickly changed formation after a wave of charge, and attacked the Centaur Army again.

Although Miller hadn't fought Growin head-to-head just now, he immediately felt the bravery of the bearded general after a glimpse in the chaotic battle.This man was holding two sabers and slashing left and right. His movements were experienced and his moves were clean and neat. At the same time, he could also take care of observing the situation of the battle and commanding the cavalry to fight.

Miller couldn't help thinking: This beard is amazing!Could it be that he is Leoric?But didn't the intelligence say that Leoric was a young general wearing silver armor?This guy looks almost 40 years old. If it's Leoric, he looks a little anxious.

If it weren't for Leoric, how could there be such a powerful person in the Northern Expedition Army, but his name is unknown?

"I am very strong but not well-known" is actually very depressing for Growin himself - he is really strong, but his aura is covered up by Leoric.

When Leoric was away, Growin, the "head of the cavalry regiment", was known as one of the three great generals of the Northern Expedition Army, and he was also a fierce man who rode a short-legged horse to kill indiscriminately among the enemies.In the past, he performed well in suppressing bandits, suppressing rebellion, and even fighting against the barbarians who beat the autumn wind.Akkad also praised him and said: "The bravery of Commander Growin puts the barbarian warriors to shame."

But as soon as Lao Li appeared on the stage, nothing happened to him.

Even the only glorious record was completely covered up by Leoric's dazzling aura like a "laser light". Yes, it was the night when 800 people attacked the Crow King with 10 people.

That time, it was obvious that three generals led troops to rob the camp together!Leoric, Shia, and Growen are three people!Why does everyone only remember one Leoric?

Xiyana had bad luck in the robbery that time, she was besieged by the enemy, so she didn't have any record, and no one praised her, but I really killed many savages, killing the enemy!Behead!capture the flag!Burn the camp!In normal times, that's enough for the bard to write a chapter for me.

It's not that he is jealous of Leoric. After all, Leoric is too strong and charismatic. Growen only admires him, but he feels a little depressed because he can't show off.

Since the end of the Crow King's battle, Growen's cavalry regiment has never had a chance to appear.The Wind Flying Group has been reused, the Hammer Group is getting closer and closer to the general, the Elven Cavalry Group is showing off, and even the newly arrived murlocs are showing off!And me?And me?

Numb, really numb!Didn't General Li tell me, "The iron cavalry is my trump card, and the cavalry are all my treasures"?Why let us sit on the bench!

From Wild Wolf City to Wangbei City, from Wangbei City to Shanshen Fortress, and then seeing the murlocs show off, he couldn't help it!

Fortunately, these mercenaries gave Growen a chance to perform.

To become famous and become famous is today!

If the Centaur Legion was overheated because of money, then Growin blocked his life for honor. In his opinion, this was not only an ordinary battle, but also an opportunity to vent his anger and prove himself.The bearded man showed all his abilities. He learned "Saber Technique" in his early years, and "Sword Fighting Technique" in his middle age. In addition, he has developed open and close moves in actual combat for many years, which made him fight alone. The performance is average, but it is like a fish in water among the chaos.

At this time, Growen led the cavalry regiment to rush towards the centaur army for the second time. After all, these centaurs had the blood of beasts in their bodies, and they were also bloodthirsty mercenaries. After being injured, they became more ferocious than before.This is the kind of enemy that Growen wants!He first flicked the knife with his backhand and cut off the spear of the oncoming horse. While the broken spear was still spinning in the air, he split half of the man's chest with his forehand.The horse led him past the corpse and rushed into the enemy formation. Growen swung his two knives, and the barbarian saber danced in his hands. The enemy's blood splashed everywhere. Falling, a vacuum formed around Growen.

Miller looked at Growin and thought: What a strong guy!Even if this guy is not Leoric, he is probably no worse than Leoric.All I want is to fight against this strong man!

Miller also went up to kill Growen with the crystal sword in hand, soldiers against soldiers and generals, and Miller's crystal sword was prepared for the enemy generals.He raised the weapon in his hand and shouted: "Knight, fight with me!"

Of course Growin would not refuse, he showed his two knives and shouted: "Come here! Coward!"

The two rode their horses to confront each other, and passed by in an instant. At that instant, they only saw sparks bursting and a little blood.Then Growin covered his right chest, and the plate armor was cut open by the sword, and even the chest guard and leather armor inside were split, leaving a shallow wound on his chest.

Miller was unscathed, except for one missing arm.

Miller bled profusely for a moment and turned pale.He quickly rushed out of the encirclement, and then tightened the wound with a cloth band to stop the bleeding—he was half of the lizard man's blood, so his body could recover and stop the bleeding faster, and he could continue fighting even with a broken arm.

It's a good thing it was the left hand, he thought, otherwise I wouldn't be able to kill with a sword.

At this point in the battle, Miller finally believed that he had failed the camp raid.He blew his whistle and ordered the legion to retreat, but at this moment, a cavalryman ran over and shouted: "Regimental Commander, there are many infantry from the Northern Expedition Army encircling us from behind, cutting off our retreat!"

Miller looked back, and sure enough, the way back had been cut off by the enemy.These infantry quietly formed formations behind him. The front row was heavily armored shield swordsman, the back was two rows of staggered pikemen, and there were archers behind him.

He really couldn't figure it out: how could this happen?Since Leoric has so many soldiers and horses, why didn't he come out and beat me, and why did he play with me like this?Does he dare to bet that I will go to the city?This should be a small probability event, right?

This is not normal!

It wasn't that Leoric really wanted to play tricks on him, it could only be said to be a "beautiful misunderstanding".

Leoric thought, let Shia put on an empty city plan to scare the enemy away, and don't fight if you can.It's not that they are afraid that Shia and the others won't be able to fight, but after all, Leoric himself is not present, and the effect of their fight may not be so devastating, and some people will die.Ordinary soldiers killed or injured Lao Li, although he felt distressed, he could still bear it. He would be sad for a long time if the regiment leaders were killed or injured. If something happened to the girls, wouldn't he regret it?No, no, safety first.The sisters should just turn on the air conditioner in the house, don't take risks outside.

Leoric felt that as long as the enemy had a normal mind and saw the banner saying "Warmly Welcome Your Excellency to Sneak Attack on Our Army", they would definitely turn around and run away with a guilty conscience.But to be on the safe side, let the regiment leaders prepare for the battle in advance. If these short-sighted guys really rush to the tower to give away their heads, then make dumplings for them, and then ask the commander: "You are sick from riding a horse!" ?"

Therefore, if Miller acts according to the script, he can get out of the whole body. As long as his life is strong enough, he may die in a certain corner.

But he had a strange way of thinking and did not take the usual path.

No one really expected this. If Leoric knew about this, he would definitely admire this tactical genius who forcibly sees through empty plans.But Shia and the group leaders thought: Leoric has a great plan!To figure out the enemy's psychology to such an extent?This kind of reverse thinking is so powerful, it is worthy of being a general.

Miller was also an old dog. He knew that if he turned around and ran away at this time, his morale would collapse completely, and he would be slaughtered by the enemy like a pig.He simply didn't do it, and he said loudly: "Continue to attack directly and kill a bloody path!"

Leoric arranged all the heavy armored soldiers and cavalry, so there would be no one in front of him!The most dangerous place is the safest place, I just charge forward, maybe I can really kill it!
