Early in the morning of the next day, the recruits got up amid the sound of the horn, packed up, led by Sean, accompanied by the few remaining veterans in Keene, and set off to the hills in the north of the city.
Although it has been training for two months, the gap between recruits and veterans is still very obvious. I couldn’t tell when I was walking in the barracks. At this moment, when I was marching out of the city, the pace of the veterans was much lighter and more stable than the recruits, and there was no trace of fear on their faces, only full confidence and high spirits.
They were originally brave and combative. Many of them were even rogue thugs before they became soldiers. It is their style of doing things that they are happy when they hear a war. As long as there is a bonus, they welcome the war. Even if there is no bonus, they will fight when they are bored, and they have the right to play.
During this time, they followed Rhett on patrols. Although Rhett’s martial arts can suppress them, this group of energetic people have not fought for several months, and they have long been panicked. Knowing that they were going to kill the Grey Goblin at this moment, they were all happy, bloodthirsty and combative in their eyes, and they couldn’t wait to vent their desire for destruction that had been holding back for several months.
Of course, this is also because the gray goblin is weak. If they changed to ogres or bear goblins, they wouldn’t be so excited.
Shooting the ash goblin is for nothing, and fighting the ogre is going to kill you…
Under their infection, the courage of the recruits has also been plucked up. They looked at the well-maintained armors on the carriage next to them, squeezed the weapons in their hands, and listened to the nonchalant laughs of the veterans nearby, and they naturally had a bottom in their hearts.
This is the hǎochù of veterans and recruits. As long as the veterans are not lighted up, the veterans and recruits can quickly be rebuilt.
Not to mention that Crick has made a lot of money in the training of recruits. These recruits are well fed and dressed warmly. There are zúgòu trainings every day. Not only does the discipline get in place, but the physical stamina is also very good. It is the kind that is most welcome in the modern military.
In Crick’s view, although they are not strong enough for the time being, their force is much weaker than the veterans. But they represent the direction of the future army. As for the veterans, they must either go one step further and reach the level equivalent to senior adventurers and become specialized elites, or they can only be phased out and sent to the countryside to become militia squad leaders.
This is not bad either. The bravery and sturdiness of the veterans can effectively inspire and motivate the militia. In the future, the territory has the manpower and material resources of zúgòu. It is much more convenient when the militia is trained again.
As the troops were slowly leaving the city, Crick noticed a horse galloping away, with Lena on its back.
He couldn’t help but smile, and he was a little more sure of today’s victory.
In order to preserve the physical strength of the soldiers, the troops marched at a low speed, and did not come to the foot of the mountain until noon.
Crick did not rush up the mountain, but let the soldiers rest first. Have lunch to fully recover your energy. And he took out a simple map that had already been drawn. Discuss with Rhett and Sean.
“I arranged for adventurers to lure those gray goblins to the corner of the river.” He pointed to the map and said, “The terrain is open and suitable for us to fight.”
Rhett and Sean didn’t know in advance, they couldn’t help but laugh at each other when they heard it.
“I originally thought about the inconvenience of using two-handed spears in the woods. I couldn’t open the array, so I could only rely on the armor to fight slowly. As a result, your lord, you were ready!” Xiao En said with a smile.” The open terrain, there is still river water behind the goblins, and there is no way to go back. If I can’t win this way, I just jump into the river and die.”
“Such an open terrain is very beneficial to archers.” Reid said, “There are heavy pikemen in front of them to hold down the position, and I bring the archers behind, so I can guarantee that not even a gray goblin will escape.”
He said very lightly, and didn’t put twenty or thirty gray goblins in his eyes at all.
This is not pride. With his strength, even single-handedly, he can wipe out a large tribe of hundreds of goblins. The reason why I have to go to war this time is nothing more than training soldiers through goblins.
The reason why Crick brought the veterans also was to protect them from inexperience and prevent them from making mistakes on the spot, and secondly, to let Rhett also come.
To tell the truth, there is a high-level powerhouse in the team, and he is much more at ease in his heart.
Not to mention that this strong man is a magical archer, or the kind that can shoot three arrows in an instant. With Reid in the team, he can ensure that no mistakes will be made and casualties will be avoided.
Kean collar is really dead now!
Because of the next battle, the soldiers didn’t eat much. They ate some noodles, drank some cold water, and rested for a while, then stood up again, moved their bodies, and ordered děngdài to start.
After a while, a horse galloped up and stopped beside the team. Lena jumped off her horse. Although she looked a little unnatural, she still smiled and said, “The mission has been completed. I arranged an adventurer who looked like a wolf hunting and was passed by. Killed móyàng, the goblins are pouring out and rushing towards the river.”
Crick also smiled, waved his hand, and ordered the troops to start again.
He is not worried that Rena will deceive zìjǐ. The favorability of the character has risen from sixty to sixty-five is enough to explain the problem.
Although Lena seems to have something on her mind, who doesn’t have a secret?
As long as things can be done well, what does the secret matter?
When the troops started this time, they no longer marched slowly. Instead, they ran hurriedly, circled in a circle, took the back path, and intercepted the forest and the river.
At this time, I can see the mess in the clearing at the turn of the river from a distance. Lena did a very piāoliàng. She got a sheep and a wolf. The sheep was killed by the wolf at first sight. The wounds faked by the adventurer may not be able to deceive his peers, but there is no problem in deceiving the goblins. The wolf was killed by a sword. The head of the wolf is different. With the horseshoe print next to it, it is obvious that the wolf hunted a sheep. But he was killed by a passing adventurer. The adventurer’s martial arts was so strong that he swept away the account without even dismounting.
Rena is indeed not a combat adventurer, but no matter how bad at fighting, the level of her tenth-level combat class does not fall from the sky. A mere wolf is really not in her eyes.
In fact, she could try to wipe out the gray goblins alone, but it was somewhat risky. If Crick gave a little more money, she wouldn’t mind taking a risk.
But Crick is not being taken advantage of…
After occupying favorable terrain, the recruits were busy putting on armor. They are heavily armored soldiers, and their armor is only worn before the battle, otherwise… a set of armor is more than 20 kilograms, and wearing such a thing will definitely not be able to fight for a long time.
However, heavy armor naturally has heavy armor hǎochù. Heavy armor means strong defense. When these recruits put on the heavy armor neatly, and then put on the helmet like an iron bucket, it suddenly becomes a meeting place. Moving steel fortress. Thirty steel fortresses of this kind were drawn into a huge arc, holding a long spear about 2.5 meters in both hands, pressing them so violently…
Although everyone doesn’t understand the goblin language, the reaction of those gray goblins is clear at a glance. When they saw dozens of steel fortresses holding terrifying spears, shouting slogans in unison—in fact, “one, two, one,” this was to keep the team tidy—walking slowly, they were all stunned. Everyone even saw a goblin with a drop of flesh in its mouth making a weird cry. The mouth was so long that it was doubtful whether the jaw would be dislocated, and the flesh in the mouth naturally fell out.
The gray goblins are not very smart. At a glance, Crick saw that they were all scums with the highest intelligence of less than nine. But no matter how stupid they are, they know that there is no way to go now, only to fight to the end.
A tall gray goblin quickly picked up the bow and arrow placed on the ground, bent the bow and set the arrow, and it was an arrow at the recruits.
The arrow whizzed at a recruit’s chest, bounced off by the solid metal armor, leaving only a shallow trace.
Next, several other gray goblin archers also shot arrows, but their performance is not better than their counterparts. In the face of the heavily armed soldiers who are even covered in a barrel helmet, the ordinary wooden bow and the toothed arrow can’t produce a threat at all.
The rest of the gray goblins also took up weapons, most of which were spears, and a few used large wooden sticks. They screamed and screamed and rushed towards the recruits.
Faced with these ugly monsters screaming and rushing over, the recruits’ original footsteps suddenly became a little confused. Sean who followed the team immediately yelled “come down”, but he couldn’t really calm them down.
At this moment, a roar came from behind them, but it was Crick who spoke.
“Stand at attention!”
The recruits immediately stood at attention subconsciously, so the originally chaotic team was restored to order. Sean finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly ordered the gun to be raised and put in an offensive posture ~ IndoMTL.com ~ followed his orders and moved forward slowly, continuing to compress the space for the goblins.
The next scene was a bit tragic. The charging goblins slammed into Rulin’s spear formation, and not even one could attack the recruits alive. Grey, green and reddish blood sprayed all over the ground, and also splashed on the recruits.
The recruits immediately panicked again, but this time Sean controlled the rhythm well, using roars and orders to get them to restore order and move on.
The goblins who failed the charge had no way to go, so they turned their heads and jumped into the creek. At this time, it was the turn of the veterans under Reid to show off. Most of them would use bows and arrows. Even if they could not use bows and arrows, they would pick up rocks by the river and smash them out. Among them, there was one with slings. Under the coverage of various long-range attacks, not even one of the slow-moving goblins in the river reached the opposite bank alive, and soon became a corpse with the blood in the river.
Interestingly, there is another person hiding in the pile of corpses on the river bank and pretending to be dead. This guy was spotted by Crick at a glance, then he was stabbed by several recruits with random guns, and he couldn’t die anymore.
In this battle, a total of twenty-seven gray goblins were wiped out, and none of the recruits led by Keane suffered casualties! (To be continued.)
