my fortress

Chapter 4 Human Village
Forget it, let's hire some soldiers first, it's more expensive, but safety is the most important thing.

Thinking of this, he clicked on the mercenary station.

Yifei, who was deeply shocked by those "lazy" workers, decided to improve the defense of the lower territory first. As for the internal affairs, let's just leave it at that, and let's talk about it later.

As his focus changed, the interface in front of him also changed, and the second row of patterns appeared in front of him.

Slaves, slave overseers, Arab archers, mounted archers...  
The pictures of all recruitable soldiers in the mercenary station appeared in front of them.

He immediately clicked on the Arab archer in the interface, and a simple introduction popped up in front of him again.

Arabian Archers: Standard ranged attack unit.It lacks armor, but has the same fast movement speed as the archer, and has a long range, but its melee ability is almost zero.Arab archers have a long range and are very effective against unarmored units, but struggle against heavily armored units.Arab archers can also use braziers to enhance ranged damage or light pitch traps.Arab archers also have a special skill: salvo.

Recruitment price: 18 gold coins/one.

For those introductions, he directly ignored them, and he directly chose to recruit 50 Arab archers because he was familiar with them.

Immediately, fifty Arab archers ran out from the mercenary office. They were dressed in red robes and white skirts, with an iron helmet with pointed horns on their heads, and a longbow in their hands. Hanging a bag of quiver.

……

Time passed slowly, the day passed, and the night fell.

In just one day, he is now the lord of a strong castle, and the number of soldiers under his command has reached more than 100.

Looking at the archers and crossbowmen standing guard on the watchtower, as well as the crusader swordsmen beside him, and the soldiers standing at the city gate... He felt very relieved, so he told the crusader swordsmen beside him Take a moment, and then come to the bedroom on the third floor!
After a busy day, he lay on that soft place. As soon as he relaxed, he fell into a sweet dream.
At this time, the crops outside the city were growing in a supernatural growth pattern. Occasionally, the cries of children and the shouting and cursing of big men could be heard from the huts beside the city wall, and there were more voices blending yin and yang.

……

A bright moon hangs in the sky, surrounded by only a few stars dancing for her.The dark earth and the bright moonlight echo each other, and a group of people on the ground are moving fast!
"Da da da……"

A sound of horseshoes came from in front of the crowd, and the flickering light suddenly lit up in the dark forest, as if there was a certain pattern.

Among the people who were walking fast, one of them suddenly raised his hand, and the people who were walking stopped suddenly, standing there quietly, and the whole night sky suddenly became even quieter!

A figure galloped out of the night and quickly came to the crowd. He was riding a wild boar under his crotch. Under the moonlight, the two sharp fangs emitted a faint white light, which was creepy. shudder.

But he and the feathered arrow stuck on his body let everyone know that something happened ahead!

"Ross, what's going on in front?" A figure suddenly walked out of the stopped crowd and shouted softly.

"Patriarch, a human village was found in the forest not far ahead!"

"Human village? Can't you just deal with a human village? You have to come back and report this little thing!"

"Patriarch, we can't break through that village. They have already built the city wall, and there are a group of powerful archers guarding it..."

"Trash, lead me to have a look!"

Is this the human village?
After a while, Karl led the tribe's warriors and followed Ross over a small hill, and saw the human village he mentioned.

Looking at the high city wall in the distance and the 20-meter-high watchtower, Carlton was stunned!
This is obviously a small fortress of the human race, how could Ross say that it is a village?Thinking of this, he was ready to ask Ross.

"Patriarch, please use this to read!" Rose said suddenly at this moment, and at the same time handed over a long cylindrical object.

"Ross, what is this?"

"Patriarch, this is an ancient alchemy tool, he can make people see far away..."

Ancient alchemy props! ! !

Hearing Ross's words, Carlton felt unusually interested, hurriedly took the things in Ross' hands, followed the usage he said, and watched the small fortress in the distance!
The human village in front of me is a bit too strange. Looking at it from a distance, the city wall made of huge stones and the towering watchtower are definitely a small fortress of the human empire!
But there are so many houses scattered outside the city, it looks like a village at first glance!
This should not be a military fortress, it may be the territory of a noble in the human race, but the scale does not seem to be large, and the strength should not be very strong. Why can't the more than 100 tribal warriors led by Ross fail to attack?

Hey, what are they doing?
Karl discovered through the alchemy tools in his hand that there were corpses of tribal fighters everywhere outside the human fortress. At this time, a group of human soldiers were desecrating their corpses, and the gate of the fortress was wide open.

They stabbed the corpses of every tribal warrior with spears in their hands, and then a group of human farmers came over, picked up their weapons, and took away the corpses of the dead war beasts, and then they did not know how to use them. What witchcraft, the corpses of the tribal warriors disappeared out of thin air,...
Damn, these hateful humans dare to tarnish the glory of the orc warriors. Seeing this scene, Carlton was furious.

Blood debt needs to be paid in blood!
Carl returned the alchemy tool in his hand to Rose who was beside him, and said with a sullen face, "Give me the order, the whole army is ready to charge, I want them to go back to hell!"

"Huhuhu..."

Hearing his order, the tribal warriors behind him all stepped on the mounts beside him without saying a word, and drew the scimitars at their waists.

"kill!"

"kill!"

There was a low roar on the hill!
……

"Master Guard, there is military news from the watchtower, and more than 1000 mobs have been found, do you want to inform the Lord Lord?" On the gate of the fortress, a long man wearing heavy armor and two battle flags on his back The spearman was standing upright on it, and a soldier who was also wearing heavy armor and holding a spear ran up and asked respectfully.

"No, it's just a group of mobs. Don't disturb the rest of the adults. You go tell Tom and let them go out of the city to cover the territory and sign into the castle!"

"Yes, Sergeant Major!"

……

"Whoosh whoosh..."

As the sound of horseshoes approached, a rain of arrows flew down from the city wall and landed on the galloping figure, splashing countless blood.

After each rain of arrows, some galloping figures fell to the ground.

"Ah~! Ah~!..." The moan sounded in the silent night, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye!
Karl stood on a hill in the distance, looked at the castle in the distance, felt the gust of wind blowing by, and a sense of pride spread from his heart, but within a few minutes, his face suddenly became serious.

Through the alchemy props in his hand, he could clearly see that the human archers standing on the city wall quickly shot the arrows in their hands. As the arrows fell, a large number of tribal warriors fell from the beasts.

Why are they not affected by the darkness, are they all marksmen?

Through the alchemy equipment in his hand, Karl could see very clearly, and he was extremely surprised by the actions of the human archers on the distant city wall.

You must know that because of the differences in races, the night vision ability of the human race is generally very weak, unless those sharpshooters who have mastered eagle-eyed combat skills can ignore the obstacles of the night.

But how did he know that the archers he was facing were not ordinary human archers, but archers produced by the system. They did not have the so-called night blindness at all. As long as they entered their attack range, there was no difference between day and night!

1、2、3…15、16…70。

70 human marksmen! ! ! !
Karl counted while watching, as time passed, his face has slowly turned pale!
At this time, the figures outside the city were rapidly decreasing, and some of them were lucky enough to have rushed to the city gate, and groups of black shadows flew out of their hands and flew towards the city wall.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

"Ping pong pong..." There was a sound of metal impact.

Then a dazzling bronze-colored light suddenly burst out in the dark night sky.

"Ah~~~"

A burst of desolate screams sounded...

Bronze Swordsman!A dozen bronze swordsmen!

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw..."

Seeing a light glowing in the distance, Carl yelled loudly, only to realize it was too late.

Outside the human fortress in the distance, no tribal warriors could be seen, only the humming of a group of war beasts could be heard.

A small-scale war broke out, and in just ten minutes, the night sky became quiet again.

"Squeaky..."

The closed city gate was opened, and a group of soldiers and farmers came out from the gate, came to the corpse not far away, and started to clean the battlefield again!
