Alien Knights

Chapter 580: Battle not planned

"A group of bastards! A group of **** bastards!" Cumberland, riding on horseback, furiously, led the Mossy Knights all the way to the forest: "When I catch up with them, I will cut off all their legs. , Let these arrogant idiots lie in bed forever!"

"Large Commander! We are near the forest!"

The adjutant's words calmed Cumberland a bit, and the latter ordered the knights under him with a beehive: "Everyone is ready to dismount! Raise your shield and advance!"

The valkyries hovered above the knights, and the griffon cried excitedly as they watched the gunpowder smoke in the forest in the distance.

Cumberland got off his horse, pulled out the long sword from the horse's belly, and took off the zither-shaped shield, and said to the adjutant: "Tell the stupid women in the sky and let the hairy beasts shut me up! Yes, without my order, you must not lower your altitude to participate in the battle!"

The adjutant lifted the cover of the helmet, opened his arms, and stood in front of Cumberland: "Large regiment commander! You are the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army, and you should not take personal risks!"

Cumberland kicked the adjutant's abdomen and yelled, "Get away!"

Looking at the adjutant who fell to the ground, Cumberland strode towards the forest, and said in a voice that only he could hear: "If the situation is so serious that it is out of control, how should I explain it to your majesty..."

According to the deployment situation provided by the scouts, the knights followed a pre-planned route and set off toward the nearest small outpost of the enemy.

Ten minutes later, Ackerman chased him with five hundred priests.

As the commander of the Crusades, Ackerman walked up to Cumberland with a look of shame and hesitating to speak.

Cumberland walked by Ackerman's side and said in a deep voice, "If you have anything to say, I'll talk back."

The Knights and the Crusades came together, with a strength of more than a thousand men.

Due to the addition of units proficient in investigation, the marching speed of the troops has been accelerated, and they soon arrived at the first sentry post.

There, the battle has been over for a long time.

Human fragments are all over the place, even the intestines dripping with blood can be seen on the treetops; the tents are torn into rags by huge force, and they are scattered around the guard posts; wooden lookouts The tower was overturned from the bottom and fell on the forest floor.

Ackerman took a number of Sacred Army scouts and walked around the battlefield. Then he returned to Cumberland and said in a low voice: "We only saw the dead bodies of the enemy troops, but did not find the remains of our troops."

Cumberland pointed to the ground angrily and said, "The group of orcs took advantage of the enemy’s lunch break and launched a surprise attack. Look at these traces on the ground, they first rushed out of the forest, and first knocked down the sentry’s arrow tower. Then rushed to the campfire, before the enemy had time to shoot, he started close hand-to-hand combat."

Ackerman looked at Cumberland's face and asked tentatively: "So, they got a perfect victory?"

"Perfect ass!" Cumberland pointed the blade at the horseshoe marks in the north of the camp, and roared: "These idiots only want to kill the enemy, but they have forgotten even the most basic blockade of the exit! The army has two cavalrymen, no, three cavalrymen took advantage of the gap in the battle and escaped here on horseback!"

"You can think of it with your toes, these three slippery fish must be to warn the surrounding enemy!"

Cumberland slammed a fist on the wooden stake next to him: "The most troublesome thing is that if the group of brainless orcs suffer from a gun and suffer some casualties here, maybe they will also evaluate the strength of the enemy. , Consider whether to retreat..."

"However, the one-sided slaughter makes them proud and arrogant, thinking that the enemy is nothing more than this, and the orcs who are not satisfied with a small victory will definitely focus their attention on the more conspicuous surrounding targets and use their so-called power. To get the honor of shit!"

Ackerman said palely: "Then you mean... the orcs will continue to march?"

"Let go of the enemy's cavalry, continue to advance without reinforcements, lack the minimum vigilance and care for the enemy, and be confused by arrogance!" Cumberland clenched the sword in his hand and shouted: "If We can't meet these orcs as soon as possible, and I dare to swear that what awaits them will be a disastrous ending."

Ackerman opened his eyes wide, turned around and asked loudly behind him: "Except for the small guard posts, what direction is the nearest enemy camp from here?"

Randall, who sent troops with him, took out the sheepskin map he carried with him, and pointed his finger to the hilly area in the northeast: "Luqiu Camp, there is a large enemy military camp, 3,700 meters from here, where the enemy is stationed. About two thousand two hundred people..."

As soon as the voice fell, there was the sound of guns and guns from the northeast, and thick gun smoke filled the sky again.

Cumberland lifted the shield, hit the shield with the back of the sword, and ordered loudly: "Everyone, keep the front line and march northeast."

When the Musi Knights and the Crusades rushed to the deer hill on the map, a brutal battle scene was unfolded before their eyes.

The simple stone wall of the enemy barracks has been broken by the orc army, and the orcs can rush into the center of the enemy camp as long as they advance one hundred meters. However, the three bunkers in the shape of finished characters and forming horns with each other were woven into a tight firepower net with muskets and artillery, which firmly blocked the intrepid orc army from fifty meters away.

An orc captain wearing iron armor and holding a flail and tower shield, while shouting the name of the dragon god, slowly approached with six members of the tribe.

The tongue of fire from the firing port of the musket on the bunker fired lead bullets the size of pigeon eggs at the invading orcs.

The bullet hit the tower shield, and sparks appeared like fireworks, and the sound of thunderbolt was as intense and harsh as the sound of water droplets on a rainy day.

Enduring the ever-increasing bullet holes on his body, the orc captain used a tower shield to protect his vitals, allowing the blood on his body to flow down his body and slowly flow to the ground, converging into a **** path behind him.

"Blessed by the Dragon God!" With the support of his companions, the orc captain desperately stabilized his figure and approached step by step.

One meter, two meters, five meters, ten meters...

The blood-covered orc captain and the six people who were also wounded finally walked to the front of the bunker 20 meters, seeing that as long as he walked a few meters forward, he could jump into the trench in front.

A white light flashed through the trapezoidal gap on the front of the bunker ~lightnovelpub.net~, and the explosion sounded through the entire battlefield.

The enemy ignited the fuse of the shotgun, and countless pieces of iron fired from the muzzle, like a steel storm, instantly swept all the space 20 meters in front of the bunker.

The iron piece with huge kinetic energy whizzed through the air, piercing the tower shield, and directly pierced the head of the orc captain without any loss.

The latter wanted to reach out to pull the iron piece on his head. The huge pain from his brain made him unable to support it anymore. The tower shield and the link fell to the ground, and the whole person fell to the ground like a hill.

The six orcs hiding behind him and losing their cover wanted to take up their weapons and rush into the bunker, but were shot directly in front of the formation by the next burst of muskets.

Such tragedies have happened again and again on the battlefield, and the orc army has been reduced by almost half.

Looking at the orc corpses on the ground in front of the bunker, Cumberland slowly put down the mask on the helmet, shielded the front door and chest with a shield, took a deep breath, and used the honeycomb to give orders to all the knights: "Music Knights , Strike out!"
