Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords
#291 - A battle without suspense
Bodoff took a big gulp of wine, rubbed his brow, and tried to ease the endless waves in his heart.
If the surname Anser Liedesgao could possibly belong to someone else, but if you add Dragonborn and from Dragon Island, then the answer is obvious.
This is the surname of Ms. Sylvia, the Dragon Island Council Elder, the most magically talented, and known as the "Starlight."
This Silver Dragon Queen loved to transform into humans and adventure in the Middle Ages when she was young, so she left traces in history that can be traced.
Back then, Bodoff was still an ignorant and inexperienced swordsman, having just joined the Magic Tower, when he happened to see her going to the Magic Tower for some matters.
That was a lady beautiful enough to make the bright moon blush and hide its face, and the colorful flowers also lose their color.
Bodoff was a normal male, and naturally he couldn't avoid admiration at the time, so he went to investigate some information about her, so he was very impressed.
But now time has passed, and he is already an old man, and she is probably still in her prime.
Given the long lifespan of dragons, even if his grandchildren die, she will not look old at all.
This is not necessarily the sorrow of short-lived species.
"Master Bodoff, is there anything wrong?" As the most astute person present, Fatir was the first to notice the unnaturalness of this experienced old mage after hearing the name.
"Hahaha, what could be wrong? It should be that the name happens to be similar to Master Bodoff's friend, so it is inevitable to feel emotional."
Li Wei put his arm around the old man's shoulder and laughed loudly: "You're right?"
The lord blinked his eyes.
Bodoff's face suddenly became unnatural, and after a long while, he said: "Yes, when people get old, they inevitably feel inexplicably emotional when they hear similar names... My dear Mr. Li Wei, do you know how strong your hands are?"
Although Bodoff is a serious mage, he believes that his physique is no worse than those Dou Qi knights, but at this moment, he feels as weak, pitiful, and helpless as a flat boat in the storm sea.
"Cough cough." Li Wei instantly returned to his original state as if nothing had happened, and clapped his hands: "The Dragon Gate Formation ends here, everyone eat first."
After speaking, he looked at Bodoff: "I think Master just drank so much wine, he must want to relieve himself, why don't we go together, so that you won't be unfamiliar with my subordinates when you first arrive and cause misunderstandings."
"That's right, I do have such an idea." The old man has seen many big scenes in his hundred years of life, but he has never seen such blatant demands, and at this moment, he chose the correct path from his heart.
The two walked side by side towards the outside, like a pair of friends with deep feelings. The paladins looked at each other. Compared to the newly acquainted people from High Cliff Castle, Bodoff obviously had a deeper relationship with them.
Several brave paladins prepared to get up and follow to see what was going on, but as soon as their butts left the bench, a pair of large green hands landed on their shoulders, as heavy as a mountain, and they were pressed back in an instant.
"Our boss doesn't like so many people following behind." Several orc warriors grinned, revealing their simple and honest smiles.
The remaining orc warriors also smiled honestly at the ten or so paladins, looking very simple.
Feeling the great strength coming from their shoulders and the many strong men in front of them, the paladins were silent.
Compared to Bodoff, the safety of the Holy Maiden was more important, and the other party had a good relationship with the Holy Maiden, so nothing should happen.
They thought so in their hearts.
"Master Bodoff." Li Wei came to a piece of grass outside that was already a bit bald and untied his belt, and said casually: "I'm sorry to do this to you, but Sophia's identity is still secret for now."
He knew that this old boy must have guessed Sophia's true identity.
"I can understand." Bodoff didn't relieve himself, but just looked at the clouds in the sky: "If ambitious people knew that a young dragon was here, it would be enough to make those people lose their minds."
Li Wei nodded. In fact, the only people who knew that Sophia was a dragon were the orcs who followed him to slay the dragon and some of the leaders of High Cliff Castle.
The reason for concealing it at the time was naturally also considering this aspect.
But in fact, he was not afraid, just concealing this matter could reduce some trouble, so he did it.
"There is one more thing, does Master Bodoff know Sophia's origin? Can you tell me about it?"
"Since she can stay with you, obviously these things are not worth keeping secret." Bodoff said meaningfully.
...
Before long, two figures appeared at the entrance of the tent.
The paladins breathed a sigh of relief in unison.
Sophia, who was feasting, looked up and asked a little guiltily: "Li Wei, why does it take you so long to go to the toilet?"
Li Wei looked at the silver dragon girl with her cheeks stuffed and her hands full of oil, with a complicated expression.
Just now, Bodoff had told him all about the origin of this silver dragon. He didn't expect that this silly girl could actually be considered a dragon princess.
Her mother is one of the three council elders of Dragon Island, and her strength is even terrifyingly powerful.
Originally, if he directly asked Sophia, she would obviously tell him this information, but the lord was embarrassed because of face issues.
He was always embarrassed to inquire, because it would make him seem to have ulterior motives and harbor ill intentions.
It was not until today that he got some information from Bodoff. He thought she was an unvalued silver dragon, after all, she was so terribly stupid, but he didn't expect to be really scared now.
"The cold wind blew away my interest, so it took some time." Li Wei waved his hand and made up a reason.
No normal person would believe this lame excuse, but Sophia nodded and said seriously: "The environment does have a big impact."
"By the way, Li Wei, I'm done eating, so I'll go back first."
She jumped off the chair and walked out of the tent on her own.
"Why do I feel like something is wrong with you?" Li Wei looked at her suspiciously.
"Haha, what could be wrong? You must be thinking too much." The silver dragon girl laughed, but the pace of her departure quickened a lot, and she quickly disappeared from sight.
"Damn it, who the hell embezzled my share?"
A moment later, the lord looked at the licked clean plate, and his angry voice was enough to overturn the entire tent.
Sophia, who had already returned to her bed, quickly wrapped herself in the quilt, hid inside, touched her slightly undulating belly, and looked at the ten or so gold coins that really belonged to her, giggling silly.
She can eat a lot of delicious food every day, and she can also earn her own money. She feels that this kind of life is exactly what she wants!
...
Those demons were indeed a bit stronger than Li Wei had imagined, and they quickly reorganized their troops and prepared to launch an attack on their temporary camp.
Unfortunately, the first thing that greeted them was the arrows of the centaurs. These grassland men almost bit their flesh with every arrow. Before the demons approached the camp within four miles, they left behind nearly a thousand corpses.
They wanted to solve the annoying centaurs first, but as soon as they got close, the centaurs immediately ran away, and they could only watch helplessly with their two legs.
As a result, when they retreated, the centaurs followed up again, biting them and refusing to let go, like flies that were annoying.
The key is that even the flying Fro demons were so frightened by the terrifying accuracy that they dared not fly at low altitude.
This tactic of retreating when the enemy advances and harassing when the enemy retreats was deeply instilled in the hearts of every cavalryman in High Cliff Castle by the lord.
Now let these demons experience it first. Putting aside everything else, this tactic is very dirty, but it is definitely disgusting.
You can see that these demons have been beaten without any temper.
In the end, they had to give up their morale that had just risen and prepare to attack, and they had to gather their members to defend the densely packed holes in the solitary peak.
...
The next morning, the main force of the legion arrived here.
After the investigation by the ice snow术士, it was just a short small meeting that ended.
Tens of thousands of Northern Border soldiers poured out from the large army. Accompanied by the sound of footsteps and the collision of armor, they began to gradually gather into neat formations and advance towards the distant solitary peak in an orderly manner.
"Infantry, raise your shields and advance, archers, provide covering fire!" The officers shouted and directed the formation.
These Northern Border soldiers were no longer the inexperienced young men they were at the beginning. Although the enemy was demons that they had only seen in storybooks, the corpses outside the city had already told them that the other party would still die if their necks were cut, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
The mobilization of the army could not be hidden at all, and naturally it could not be hidden from the demons defending the solitary peak.
The demons guarding here had already been thoroughly investigated. There were about 20,000 of them, led by the strongest six-armed snake demon warrior.
The equipment could only be said to be still in the militia stage. Most of them only had knives in their hands. The only means of long-range attack was the short bow held by the Fro demons flying in the sky. It was still questionable whether the power could penetrate a layer of chain armor.
The battle began at the highest climax from the beginning.
Arriving before the heavy infantry was the long-range firepower composed of catapults and ballistas.
It can only be said that humans have deeply researched large military machinery.
As the ten catapults creaked, the counterweight box slammed down, and the stones covered with green dye and lit were launched into the air in an instant and thrown towards the solitary peak.
A moment later, a earth-shattering roar exploded, and the stones slammed into the solitary peak, and then turned into countless small burning fragments and shot in all directions.
Some unlucky ones were hit by stones that were no less powerful than strong crossbows and fell to the ground in an instant. Some lucky ones were only grazed, but they were also stained with burning green liquid and wailed all over the ground, burned by the wildfire like maggots on bones.
This military taboo may not be used to deal with humans, but it is definitely a delightful thing to deal with demons.
It is a pity that the quantity is small. Only a few barrels were collected in the entire Corin. Perhaps most of them were used by the dead Cross in Black Stone Castle.
After a few rounds of throwing, the demons on the ground were in pain before they even started melee combat, but the Fro demons flying in the sky did not have this worry. They quickly came to the height of a hundred blades above the Northern Border infantry and showed a grim smile.
At this distance, ordinary archers can hardly shoot them, but they can shoot arrows down at will and throw stones.
After all, these bloated human infantry are not as agile as the centaurs.
Unfortunately, before they could be happy for long, accompanied by bursts of teeth-aching string sounds.
Dozens of ballistas were fired at the same time, and crossbow arrows as thick as arms flew towards the Fro demons in the sky.
This kind of crossbow arrow is specially made, and the tail has two symmetrical, slender blades as thick as little fingers.
Through the unique air hole design, it can quickly rotate during high-speed shooting. This design is inspired by paper windmills.
Abandoning the ultra-long shooting distance, it chooses a large area of lethality at short distances.
A moment later, there was a rustling sound, and blood rain fell from the sky, and the hot flesh and internal organs of the broken limbs and arms poured down on the Northern Border soldiers on the ground.
The Fro demons in the sky had not yet reacted, and were cut into pieces by the rapidly rotating crossbow arrow blades that were coming at high speed.
"Mill, go back and get closer to the craftsmen under Fugello." Li Wei smacked his tongue and ordered Mill.
This battle in the Northern Border can be regarded as showing the most real means of itself.
These skills and machinery applied to the military made the lord more and more humble.
Compared with a truly mature legion, High Cliff Castle still has a long way to go.
I have to say that the background of a duke's army is indeed profound. They have a mature tactical support, which is completely different from the ragtag team in the wilderness.
The demons were beaten without any temper by the long-range firepower, and their morale visibly declined. Then they were cooperated with by the heavy infantry and archers, and they were strangled in an orderly manner. It even gave the lord a unique visual feast.
The shrill screams were still clearly audible from a long distance, but most of them were the rough, gravel-like wails of the demons.
Li Wei felt that if there were no accidents, these demons would soon be beaten to collapse.
The hillbillies of High Cliff Castle were the first time to see how a large army fought in the wild, and they were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.
Large military machinery and soldiers cooperated closely, and this attack was as pleasing to the eye as art.
The Northern Border soldiers had already felt that victory was in their grasp, and they sang "Blizzard Howling" in unison. This is the military song of the Northern Border. The intention is that no matter how fierce the blizzard in front of them is, the Northern Border people can subdue it.
They held up their shields and advanced step by step, reducing the living space of the demons in front of them.
This battle was fought easily, as if strolling in a leisurely garden. They did not even pay too much casualties, and they beat the demons back again and again.
As a result, in this season, a sudden change occurred.
"Roar!"
Seven or eight six-armed snake demon warriors rushed over from the rear, roaring like thunder, and slammed into the infantry's shield formation with the shields in their hands held high.
With a sweep of their thick tails, the infantrymen were like being hit by logs rolling down from a high slope, and they screamed and flew backwards.
Faced with the spears coming from all directions, the six arms instantly waved the weapons in their hands, and a burst of intense sparks flashed in an instant, and a dozen spears fell to the ground in an instant.
