Chapter 330 I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry
When Dawn Bloodhoof led the main force of the Taurens to hang far behind the Centaur, Santis happened to lead the army to meet with Letisia's vanguard.
The exposed night elves Southern Legion did not need to cover up any more. Santis immediately ordered the marching to speed up and must first block the exit of the Southern Valley before the centaur returns to the Spear Valley.
The Southern Legion, which had been pacified for many years, was somewhat slackened in vigilance. Many soldiers were silent for a while and were confused about Sandy's orders for marching. They had some complaints and complaints in their hearts.
But as regular soldiers of the Dark Night Republic, these soldiers were still undergoing very strict training, and the idea of obeying orders had long been engraved into their souls.
Even though he had doubts in his heart, under the command of Sandys, the Supreme Commander, the Southern Legion quickly changed its previous marching habits and followed Sandys to accelerate and run forward.
Considering the amazing mobility of the centaur, just in case, Lenira, the leader of the combat druid who served as adjutant Santis, sent Raptor Druids to spear Valley first to investigate.
It turns out that Lenira and Santis' cautious decisions were correct.
When Druid Raptor came over the Spear Valley, he could see the leading centaur army galloping south from the narrow valley road in the eastern part of the Spear Valley.
The druid, who was originally a little careless, was shocked when he noticed the running speed of the centaur.
These four-legged humanoid creatures ran like galloping horses, and large swaths of dust rose up on the barren land near Maraton. Roughly estimated, this centaur army had at least 50,000 people, and they were all cavalry.
"...I know why the Taurus was beaten to ask for help."
One of the Raptors Druid said solemnly, "Sarah, turn around immediately and tell General Santis the information as quickly as possible."
"yes!"
"Others followed me and continued northward. This unit should not be the main force of the centaur. It is likely that it was the Kyrgyz centaur returning troops attacked by the vanguard army."
When the central army where Santis was located received a message from the scout, they happened to arrive at the three-way intersection leading to the Spear Valley in Kyrgyz Village, and the dust raised in the distance could be observed with the naked eye.
Shantis held his chin and thought quickly, "Leniela, I will leave you 30,000 people. We must not let the Kyrgyz centaur take the lead and form a double-team for us."
"There is a mountain in front of the Sancha Road that blocks the view from the east and north. You should understand what I mean, right?"
Lenira smiled, "No problem. According to the speed provided by the scout, it will take about twenty minutes before the centaur arrives here. This long time is enough for me to make some arrangements."
"Very good, then I'll leave it to you."
Although Santis and Lenira are friends with each other, they are in the army at this time, and the decisive Santis takes a full attitude of doing things.
"Letisia, you lead the vanguard army to follow the instructions of the Raptor Druid into the Spear Valley, first of all, to seize the most powerful defensive position."
"learn."
Letisia knew Santis' style in the army. After solemnly receiving the order, she took the vanguard's Night Blade Leopard Cavalry unit toward the Spear Valley without saying a word.
After all, Lunara, the tree demon, is not a full-time soldier. She is a little confused about the mystery that Santis and Lenira had fought before.
"Letti, what exactly is General Santis talking about? Is it enough to leave 30,000 people for General Lenira?"
"Enough."
Letisia pulled the corners of her mouth and showed a stingy smile. "Look, the Kyrgyz Centaurus, who is eager to return to the village to put out the fire and save people, will definitely end up miserably."
...
"Accelerate! Accelerate again! The village is right in front of you!"
The centaur chief was respected as Khan. Kyrgyz Khan looked at the thick smoke rising from his village, and was anxious and constantly urged his subordinates to speed up the marching.
Maraton may be attacked and worried, but the most important thing at the moment is to try to save his people.
Once the centaur cubs in the village are seriously injured, the Kyrgyz centaur will fall into a dilemma of being in trouble for a long time, and other centaur clans will never miss this excellent opportunity.
The vanguard of Kyrgyzstan troops holding thick spears bypassed the last mountain, and the village burned by the fire was approaching.
But at this moment, the centaur in front suddenly screamed and fell forward. At their running speed, they could never stand up again if they fell.
The centaurs that fell out one after another like harvesting wheat caused great obstacles to the subsequent troops, and the Kyrgyz Khan had to order slow down.
Before the centaurs fell into a group of cladding cleared their formation, an army suddenly rushed out from the dead corner of the back of the mountain they had just passed.
The strong bows in the sentry's hands were fired one after another, and several rounds of arrows shot from behind fell into the centaur army formation, causing great panic.
In horror, the centaur, who was not disciplined, subconsciously rushed left and right in the position, trying to avoid the arrows shot from behind by an unknown enemy.
Kyrgyz Khan, who was full of impatience, felt a chill in his heart and finally woke up from his previous state of passion.
He turned his head in horror and looked at the dead corner of the mountain behind him. An army of humanoid creatures with long ears and purple skin blocked their way.
The road leading to Kyrgyz Village is full of small potholes specially set up for centaurs. Once a centaur is sprinting, it is almost inevitable that the horse will lose its front hooves.
There was a trap in front and pursuers behind, and he lost the most proud motive power. The Kyrgyz Khan was so anxious that he sweated on his head. The light of spells began to flash behind the opponent's strict military formation.
...
When the battle between Lenira's ambush troops and the Kyrgyz centaurs began, the main force of the Southern Legion had already seized all the high ground in front of the Maraton Cave under the guidance of Letisia.
Letisia's vanguard army cleared a small number of centaurs left in the Spear Valley. When Santis led the army to arrive, the vanguard army had already begun to set up defensive positions first.
The passage to the south of the Spear Valley was completely closed by night elves. It is very easy to defend this kind of terrain on the front line, and it does not even require much force. Just let the defenders climb to the peaks on both sides, and the rocks are absolutely in place.
On the other hand, the four-cross centaurs retreating from the Kodo Beast Cemetery also marched all the way and entered from the east side of the Spear Valley.
Although they were worried about the safety of the holy land, the Khans of the four tribes were not all idiots. They left 40,000 troops to defend the rear and prevent the Taurus from sending troops from the Ghost Post to sneak attacks.
When Andrea saw the forces left by the centaurs, he shook his head and laughed, "Is this group of centaurs expanding? They thought that just tens of thousands of people could block the 100,000 Taurus rushing into the formation in the positional battle?"
"snort!"
Dawn Bloodhoof has had enough of the Centaur's fighting and running tactics, and now he finally has the opportunity to face the battle head-on. The tauren chief sprayed two thick and long white air from his nose.
"Taurus Warriors! The time for counterattack has come. The whole army will follow me to charge!"
"roar!"
Chapter completed!
