Scattered and seemingly inaccurate arrows continued to be shot out of the darkness.
Taking advantage of this gap, General Luofu commanded the captains of each squad to assemble the army into five square centurions. They formed a semicircle with the stream at the rear as a basis to closely protect Fengtie and the Witch's prison car in the center of the team.
Based on the number and coverage area of the enemy's bows and arrows, Luofu judged that the number of enemies was not large, about two to three hundred people. Moreover, the shapes of the arrows shot by the enemy were uneven: some were pure iron arrows with clusters, and some were thick wooden sticks.
Wooden arrows with rhombus-shaped heads cut into different lengths and weights.
Luofu had experienced hundreds of battles, and based on the characteristics of the bows and arrows, he immediately judged that this was a temporary team composed of mercenaries from different organizations. They had not been trained in the archery formations of the regular army, so their attacks were messy.
After several rounds of shooting, the enemies hidden in the darkness seemed to realize that such attacks could not effectively damage Feng Tie's team, and began to stop attacking. The scene suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Weighing the pros and cons, Luofu thought: To the west is a very deep stream with fast currents. There should be no enemies sneaking over to attack. However, in order to be absolutely sure, Luofu secretly signaled to his guards to go to the rear to guard against enemies.
He hid in the dense woods in the east and south to launch sneak attacks, leaving only an opening in the north. The north was also the direction his team wanted to move forward, which clearly meant setting up an ambush in the woods to the north.
, waiting for us to drill.
Luofu made a quick decision: defend in place and wait for dawn.
It’s a joke. How could you get in when you know there is an ambush in the north? And there seem to be very few people in the east and south. Who knows if this is the enemy deliberately showing weakness. After entering, if a large number of enemies rush out and surround these more than 500 people,
It was miserable in the middle. The only solution for now was to wait for daybreak and send out a small team of soldiers to conduct a detailed search in the woods in the north before making plans later.
The gasps of the five hundred men, the restless kicking of the horses, and the snorting of the horses all exposed the position of the team at all times.
"The situation will be very unfavorable if this continues." Luofu thought to himself, "If the enemy begins to realize that we are in an open space without shelter, they will consider asking the mercenaries to have strong strength or accurate archery to snipe us one by one.
Soldiers. Just five hundred of them can't hold on for long."
Luofu was getting more and more anxious and couldn't help but think of Feng Tie's outstanding performance when choosing the camp.
Luofu turned around to seek Feng Tie's opinion and see if he had any better way to turn the situation around, but he saw a bloated humanoid monster behind him.
Luofu was startled, and his eyes, which were used to seeing things in the dark, vaguely saw that this monster was none other than Baron Fengtie, whom he thought had outstanding performance.
Feng Tie wore two or three sets of iron armor of different sizes and colors on his body. He held a broken scimitar in his left hand and an iron spoon for making soup in his right hand. The iron pot on his head was still emitting bursts of light.
There was a fishy smell. Xiong Da used all his strength to hold Feng Tie up to prevent him from falling to the ground, because these armors were too heavy.
I saw Feng Tie looking around with a pair of sly eyes, constantly looking at the space accidentally exposed by the surrounding soldiers, while carefully using gestures to direct Xiong Da to help him move to a safer corner.
"I still think highly of this scum," Luo Fu thought angrily, "Why was I so blind just now asking for advice from such a dandy nobleman who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Seeing Luo Fu's gaze, Feng Tie laughed sarcastically: "General Luo Fu, is there anything I can do for you?"
"No need." Luofu whispered coldly, "Just live a good life."
"Oh, okay, General Luofu, please help yourself, please help yourself."
At this moment, the dense black clouds in the sky gradually began to dissipate, and the moon in the sky unknowingly revealed a soft white edge from the clouds.
Luofu's heart gradually sank to the bottom. His hands and feet were cold, and he was not afraid of exposing his position. He yelled loudly for each team to maintain their formation and not to move rashly.
The flame unicorn had fallen asleep in this quiet night. It did not protect these soldiers who devoutly believed in its omnipotent power and compassion. The whole moon slowly revealed its face.
A beautiful full moon emits bright and soft white light scattered in every corner of the earth, but in Luofu's heart, this full moon is simply a talisman to the death of this team of 500 people.
With a "swish" sound, an arrow penetrated deeply into the throat of a soldier in the front row. The soldier's eyes bulged, his hands tightly jammed his throat, and the Changge in his hand fell to the ground and rubbed against a hard stone.
Brilliant sparks. He slowly fell backwards with a look of reluctance on his face. The comrades around him did not dare to help him. His nervous eyes widened and looked towards the direction where the arrow was shot.
The footsteps of the god of death are getting closer and closer, like a dull drum beating heavily on everyone's heart.
"Whoosh!" An iron wolf-fang arrow shot through the heart of a squad leader.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
More and more people fell. Among them were ordinary soldiers, cooks and drivers, the family's private army brought by Feng Tie, and the personal guards who followed Luofu on expeditions in all directions.
Realizing that the situation he was worried about had happened, Luofu quickly made a decision. Only by concentrating all his forces to attack the enemies in one direction could he have a chance of survival. As for whether he would be surrounded by enemies coming from the woods on the other side, he didn't need to consider it for the time being. Anyway,
Whether they can quickly defeat the enemy in front of them and break out with the speed of their horses is still unknown.
Luofu waved the broadsword in his hand to deflect an arrow that was shot at his face, and shouted an order: "The whole army obeys the order, keeps the formation still and rushes into the woods to the south, killing all the enemies you can see.
"
After gesturing with his eyes to his guards to protect Feng Tie and Witch's prison car, the soldiers responded loudly, got on their horses, and hundreds of cavalry rushed towards the dense forest in the south.
The cavalry had just rushed a few meters away when a green fireball the size of a man's arms suddenly flew out from the woods to the north and landed on the side of the team. A dozen cavalrymen were immediately blasted dozens of meters away by the shock wave generated by the fireball explosion.
, the burning war horses screamed and ran rampant in the team. The soldiers who fell off the horses wailed and ran for a distance before falling to the ground and died. The air was filled with the smell of burning protein. Many blacksmiths who had never been on the battlefield had their own private belongings.
Jun had vomited all the roast mutton in his stomach.
"Oops, there is a great fortune teller in the enemy's team." Luo Fu's resolute face showed fear, and his heart was already cold.
A great fortune teller is different from an ordinary fortune teller.
There are two old fortune tellers in Feng Tie's team. When they were born, they were sent to the only fortune teller guild in the Green Sea Continent to learn the art of divination. The subjects they learned included prediction, blessing and imprisonment.
item content.
Prediction is when a fortune teller sacrifices his own life force to make general predictions about the future of certain individuals or kingdoms. The accuracy of the prediction is closely related to the fortune teller's personal ability.
Blessing is a behavior that when a fortune teller predicts future disasters and misfortunes, they can avoid the disaster through some special media such as artifacts left over from ancient times or props made of rare materials. Until now, it has rarely been done
A powerful fortune teller can do this. Being able to recruit such a fortune teller can even avoid the disaster of annihilation for a kingdom. Fortune tellers with this ability are regarded as honored guests in any country.
of.
Another item is imprisonment. Just like when Fengtie and the others set up camp, the two diviners recited spells and drew patterns with blood, which could lock the special abilities of witches or other diviners for a period of time. This is just
It’s just the basic knowledge in the diviner learning course.
The Great Fortune Teller is completely different.
The great diviners are the group of people closest to God. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are the real "spokesmen of God".
They can communicate with God through spells, and use the rights given to them by God to mobilize the elements such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, light, and darkness between heaven and earth to serve them, thereby creating powerful elemental attacks, fireballs, hail, sand, dust, and sparkles, etc.
The ratio of one or two out of thousands of fortune-tellers who can practice to become great fortune-tellers is already very high.
Like the great diviners, powerful wizards can also launch various elemental attacks, but they act strangely and have cruel methods, and are called "the devil's advocates".
"What kind of enemy is it that can dispatch a great fortune teller to deal with us?" Luofu was surprised.
Looking at the chaotic formation of his own army and the panic-looking soldiers, Luofu collected his thoughts, gritted his teeth and slapped his horse and ran wildly in the direction of the fireball.
This great fortune teller must be driven away at all costs. Luofu's heart was clear. He was not so conceited that he wanted to kill a great fortune teller, he just wanted to drive him away, otherwise his team would be completely wiped out.
At this moment, Feng Tie was also stunned by the fireball that flew over inexplicably.
"Damn it, don't I just wear a few more pieces of armor and hold an iron pot on top to look more greedy and fearful of death? How about bombarding me with cannons?" Feng Tie shouted sadly and indignantly.
Then Feng Tie was thrown off his horse in the chaos. He rolled on the ground countless times, and several layers of armor on his body were scattered everywhere. Xiong Da quickly ran over and helped Feng Tie up.
He used his trembling body, which was so frightened, to protect Feng Tie tightly to prevent the frightened horses and soldiers from stampeding on him.
Looking in the direction of the fireball, Feng Tie saw Luo Fu galloping on his horse, holding a broad sword in both hands and raising it high above his head, shouting and charging towards the dark woods. Several cavalrymen around Luo Fu were killed.
Arousing blood, he followed closely behind Luofu and charged towards him with a howl.
The arrows fired from the woods to the east and south began to become sparse again, which showed that Luofu's judgment was correct. The opponent's troops were not many. The archers' arms were weak after several rounds of firing, and long-range attacks began to slacken.
Feng Tie's team began to calm down after the initial chaos. The captains and deputy captains of the five centurions who were still alive began to circle their horses and reorganize their formation, and continued to attack the woods to the south quickly.
"boom!"
"boom!"
The two loud noises overlapped almost in no particular order.
On one side, there was the sound of the remaining troops of Feng Tie's side rushing into the woods to confront the enemy. The other loud sound was the explosion of the second fireball fired from the north and hitting the ground.
The person who fired the fireball seemed to be frightened by the fierce-looking Luofu and lost his accuracy. The fireball just hit the open space behind Luofu. The shock wave caused by the explosion set off a sky full of dust and rocks and fell on several running soldiers.
Luofu was also pushed off the horse's back by the impact, and accelerated and rolled forward in the air.
At this time, the enemy archers in the east were no longer able to form an effective attack on the king's troops that had submerged in the woods to the west. Strangely, they did not outflank and pursue them. After a rustling sound, the east troops
There was no more movement in the woods.
