After sending Sog away, Count Kelede put on a thick bearskin cloak under the service of his bodyguards. After wrapping his clothes tightly, he said to Wolf Lord Karl, Wolf Lord Sur and Wolf Lord Arthedan:
"Tonight, my brothers have to endure it in the ice and snow, and wait until early in the morning, when these Brick people have fallen asleep, and then we will launch an attack."
"Yes, sir." The three wolf masters replied in unison.
After two false defeats and the main defenders in the city of Amondine were mobilized, Count Escalade recorded a feat for Arthedain, restored his identity as the wolf lord, and defeated Arthedain's dozens of remaining men.
On the basis of this, Asedan recruited a group of Brick gangsters gathered in Bangshui Town, leaving Asedan with about 300 troops available.
In this annihilation battle, Wolf Lord Cardo and Wolf Lord Sur were the main forces. The 300 people commanded by Arsedan and the 300 people recruited by Sog himself were auxiliary forces. Count Escalade did not expect these six
What achievements could the hundreds of Brick bandits who abandoned their faith and defected to themselves achieve?
As long as they can play a certain role in this annihilation war, of course they still have to kill the enemy. If not a single Brick is killed, then these Brick bastards who have defected must not be loyal enough.
After Earl Escalade left, Arthedain led the three hundred men under Thorg to ambush in the south of the camp, and asked his own three hundred men to ambush across the river.
Because, after the attack by Wolf Lord Cardo and Wolf Lord Sur, the Brick people who were in chaos would flee across the river in a panic in order to escape for their lives. They would definitely brave the severe cold and cross the river to escape. By then, this new team of theirs would be able to make great achievements.
After the Toba pirates had taken advantage of the darkness to surround them, the nobles led by Brick, who were unaware of it, had fallen into a drunken carnival. They were in the temporary night market set up by the military caravan.
, reveling wildly.
In the coalition camp, although the conscripted peasants and soldiers also wanted to party, they didn't have much wine after all. After they finished eating and drinking, except for those on night duty, they all went to sleep in the tents.
It was snowing and freezing outside, and it was not warm inside the thin tents. Although there was a firepit next to each tent, the heat could not make the soldiers sleeping on the frozen soil feel much better.
However, after a day's journey and the influence of alcohol, most of the soldiers lay down on a thin blanket and fell asleep with their clothes on. They were tired and drunk, but they slept peacefully. Soon, inside the camp,
Snoring sounds were heard everywhere.
Before the moon was about to set, the Toba pirates who had spent the night recuperating their energy finally no longer had to hide in the cold shelter. They could get out of this narrow hole and launch an attack on the Brick coalition forces not far away.
A fatal blow.
This kind of cold shelter is to dig several long trenches in a hidden depression in a wind shelter, and then dig a lot of holes on both sides of the trench. Each hole can accommodate three or five people. They can hide in snow and ice.
Being in such a pothole can effectively avoid being injured by the cold wind.
After all, it is not easy for wind and snow to blow into these hidden pits. These pits are like vegetable cellars. They can use the characteristics of the soil to provide fairly effective cold shelter services. In addition, a bunch of people are crowded into a small
In the cave, by taking heat from each other, not only will the bodies not lose a lot of body temperature, but they can also make each other feel warm.
Precisely because of this cold shelter, this group of Toba pirates stayed in the windy and snowy wilderness all night, but they were much more comfortable than the Brick coalition soldiers lying in the tent. After all, they were directly
Blow by the wind and snow.
This cold shelter was dedicated to Count Escalade by Wolf Lord Sogg. Originally Count Escalade's idea was to wait for the arrival of the Brick coalition before conducting the main decisive battle, but when he saw that Wolf Lord Sogg could let the soldiers
After finding a way to avoid freezing in the wild, he immediately changed his strategy and chose a sneak attack at night, which could minimize his own losses.
After Count Escalade asked Wolf Lord Sog to command his men to dig one, he went in personally and stayed for a while. After confirming that it was effective, he happily appointed Sog as Wolf Lord. The original position of Wolf Lord was just a verbal promise. Now,
It was done directly.
And Sogg, who was recognized and praised by Count Escalade, and was officially appointed as the Wolf Lord in front of a group of pirates, worked even harder.
He commanded the prisoners captured by the Toba pirates from the nearby countryside. Under the supervision of his subordinates, he worked overtime to complete the digging and construction of these cold shelter pits. The efficiency was very high, which made Count Escalade and the other three wolf masters very happy.
shock.
However, when they learned about Wolf Lord Sogg's methods, they were no longer curious. It turned out that in order to make the prisoners work faster, Wolf Lord Sogg couldn't finish the day's tasks, so he randomly chopped off people's heads to force the prisoners.
Work hard.
With the hard work of the prisoners for two consecutive days and nights, a cold shelter that could accommodate more than a thousand people was finally dug, and concealment measures were taken to make it difficult to be discovered.
Of course, the price for the efficient construction of cold shelter pits was that more than 20 prisoners died of cold and starvation, and more than a dozen prisoners were beaten to death because they worked slowly.
The heroic knight who once swore to protect the Brick people suddenly turned into an executioner who oppressed his compatriots. He also tried his best to make more Brick people die tragically. Thinking about it, it is really ironic.
However, although the Brik people who were with the pirates were disgusted with the actions of Wolf Lord Thorg, Count Escalade and Arthedan felt that Wolf Lord Thorg had done a good job. The more he behaved like this, the more he would become more
Be loyal to them.
After all, when a loser betrays the interests of his former owner, he will be more active than his opponent. Moreover, he has the kind of face that has no principles and no bottom line. He will try his best to do things that constantly set the lower limit to show off to the new master.
Prove that you are absolutely loyal.
After the Toba pirates walked out of the cold shelter, they quietly moved forward to the camp of Brick's reinforcements and ambush again.
As for the Brick soldiers in the camp, perhaps because it was too cold, or perhaps because they underestimated the enemy, they were not at all dedicated to guarding the posts, and many posts were unmanned.
As for the manned posts, there were one or two exhausted Brick soldiers wrapped tightly in their clothes in the cold wind and sleeping there with their spears leaning on them. They had no sense of alertness at all, otherwise the pirates would make so much noise that they would
It’s not like it can’t be discovered.
Outside the camp, the nobles and military attachés enjoying themselves in the caravan market did not even notice that the Toba pirates could hear their grunts and murmurs clearly. This undefended gathering
The city is completely surrounded by pirates.
It was approaching early morning, the snowstorm was still going on, and the sky was very dark, but the Tuba pirates, who had very good night vision, lit torches. This chapter has been completed!
