Chapter 1556 1542. Battle of the Highlands 12
Marquis Heller led his bodyguards and rode until dawn. The night on the Moyunling plateau was extremely cold, and a group of knights shivered on their horses.
Until a light appeared in the sky, the knights stepped on the moss-covered field and stopped. The territory here is vast, and they can see several kilometers away at a glance. Only then did Marquis Heller take the reins of the horse, raised his hand, and signaled the guard knights to stop and take a rest.
Marquis Heller can be sure that this Aigrod tribal alliance army has inextricably linked with Suldak.
When I first entered the Aigrod camp, I felt that the behavior of those tribesmen was a little weird. Now that I think about it, I feel that this trip is really extremely dangerous.
Marquis Heller felt that he was really astute.
If he hadn't reacted in time, he might have been trapped in the Aigrod camp by this time.
But this time I couldn’t find reinforcements. If I return to the camp, I will continue to fight hard with the ghost warriors...
Thinking of this, Marquis Heller felt depressed again.
…
At the foot of the mountains at the northern foot of Moyunling, an Aegrod alliance army marched along the gravel road on the edge of the mountain, towards Horsens Mountain in the west of Moyunling.
The total strength of the western expeditionary army of the Aigrod Tribe reached 50,000. This army set off from the Beishankou camp and walked westward all the way. very slowly.
According to Suldak's instructions, they need to reach the west of the North Sunderland Mountains.
This army walked for eight days, but only traveled less than 200 kilometers, and just arrived at the northwest corner of Moyunling Highland.
The leader of this Western Expeditionary Army is Sammos, the patriarch of the Lierkui tribe of the Aegrod Clan, and there are eleven other tribal chiefs who set off with this Western Expeditionary Army.
According to the arrangement of Chief Logan, this army will go around the source of the Allinge River, and then go south along the foot of the West Road Mountains.
Because the Aigrod tribe does not have enough horses, the supplies of the legion are the biggest problem they are currently facing.
All the aboriginal soldiers had brought ten days of marching rations before leaving, and they only had two days of rations left.
The evil spirits have already scoured all the edible food on the Moyunling Highlands.
The soldiers had no way to find some wild vegetables and berries to satisfy their hunger like they did in the jungle at the foot of the mountain. They could only wait for the supply team behind to arrive in time.
This area belongs to the upper reaches of the Allinge River, and some evil spirit detection teams can already be seen haunting here.
Obviously they have discovered the western expedition army of the Aegrod tribe, but because of the large number of soldiers in this army, they only dare to wait and see from afar...
The aboriginal warriors of the Aegrod tribe also knew that there were evil spirits around, and they had already sent out the scout team.
Now there is no shortage of sacrifices in the tribe. These aboriginal fighters sent out have received the blessings of the gods, and they can fight against ghost warriors alone in the wild.
As usual, large troops stationed on the grass by the Allinge River.
Light a fire on the grass by the river, boil water, boil the marching rations into porridge, and then collect some wild vegetables from the surrounding grass and put them in.
In the eyes of the heavily armored infantry soldiers of the West Route Army, this kind of marching ration may be difficult to swallow. Every infantry soldier likes to complain about this kind of marching ration, but in the eyes of these aboriginal soldiers, it is rare delicious.
"Patriarch Sammos, the information from the scouts who were investigating at the source of the Allinge River shows that there are traces of a large number of ghost fighters near the river, but the specific location of this ghost army has not been determined yet." An aborigine said. The soldier walked to the side of Patriarch Sammos and reported in a low voice.
The strong man with the tiger totem pattern on his face is the patriarch of the Lierkui tribe. He only wore a pair of heavy trousers and sat naked by the campfire.
"Understood, we must strengthen our vigilance at night, and may be stationed here for a period of time in the next few days." Chief Sammos said to several chiefs of other tribes around him.
"Are you worried that the evil spirits will attack us?" asked a patriarch.
Patriarch Sammos narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Not only that, I'm also worried that the evil ghost army will cut off our supply line after they figure out our movements."
The several patriarchs sitting around the bonfire became nervous. After all, this was the first time that the Aegrod tribe sent troops to conquer the evil spirits on the Moyunling Highlands.
Before this, everyone was still prey in the eyes of evil spirits.
Now the situation is actually reversed. It is absolutely impossible to say that you are not nervous.
All the aborigines of this Western Expeditionary Army have experienced the Battle of Beishan Pass. Facing the evil spirits, these aboriginal soldiers were both apprehensive and expectant.
The aboriginal warriors who put on heavy armor and weapons wanted to use a field battle to verify their current strength.
…
The first ray of sunlight after dawn shone into the camp by the river, and the low roars of the evil spirits also sounded on the other side of the Allinge River...
The water level in this section of the river is not deep, and an army of evil spirits with at least 8,000 evil spirits suddenly appeared on the opposite bank. Under the order of the general evil spirits, rows of evil spirit warriors jumped into the waist-deep icy river water , striding toward the Aigrod tribal camp on the other side.
When the evil spirits launched an attack, the aboriginal fighters in the camp here were also well prepared, and rows of aboriginal fighters were waiting on the shore.
Just as the evil spirits blew their attack horns, lights of sacrificial offerings appeared in the Aigrod camp.
The Aegrod army stationed by the river couldn't run even if they wanted to. After all, their running speed was much slower than that of the evil spirits.
They can only form a shield wall on the spot and guard the river bank to resist the charge of the ghost warriors.
Apparently, the aboriginal warriors with full-cover heavy armor are extremely tough in combat. They may not be as powerful as the ghost warriors, but these aboriginal fighters trust each other, and a frisson shield can't stop the evil spirits. When the ghost warrior cleaves, there will be a second shield, and the third shield will be raised one after another.
The aboriginal warriors behind will put their shoulders against the companions in front, and they will find the right time to stab out the spear in their hands.
Their defense line is like a wall built along the bank of the river.
There are three great witches in the camp of the aboriginal fighters. As they continue to sacrifice 'sacrifices', more aboriginal fighters are blessed and join the battle.
The twelve patriarchs also appeared on the battlefield for the first time, and the most conspicuous one was the patriarch Sammos, because he was also wearing a set of magic pattern armor. Spear combat.
Patriarch Sammos also held a shiny black iron spear in his hand, and he stood in front of an evil ghost general.
There were several other patriarchs fighting alongside him.
General Evil Ghost was burning with a layer of black flames, trying to clear an area on the grass by the river so that more Evil Ghost soldiers could land.
It's just that he was watched by the chief of Sammos just after jumping ashore, and now he is embarrassingly trapped in the siege of several chiefs, while the ghost warriors behind him are blocked in the river by the aboriginal soldiers, only a few The evil spirits crowded onto the grass by the bank.
Amidst the sound of shouting and killing, the ghost warriors were covered in blood holes, and fell on their backs in the turbulent icy cold river.
Some of the aboriginal warriors holding shields at the front were also bruised by bone spurs and lay on the blood-stained grass by the river.
The water of the Allinge River has turned lavender...
The aboriginal fighters finally realized that these evil ghost fighters were neither as vulnerable as they were in the Battle of Beishan Pass, nor were they as invulnerable as they were seen in the dense forests of the northern mountains. their way.
People keep falling on this battlefield.
The evil spirits had a strong will to fight. There were many corpses of evil ghost soldiers floating in the river.
The aboriginal fighters by the river have been forced back more than ten meters by the ghost fighters, and there is a battlefield full of dead bodies by the river.
The evil spirits rushed to the grass on the bank, and their morale immediately surged, and they became even more fierce as they rushed forward.
The aboriginal fighters of Aegrod, who retreated frequently, gradually became tired of dealing with the repeated onslaughts of the ghost fighters, and the situation on the battlefield began to reverse for a while.
There were even some evil spirits squatting on the battlefield, tearing the corpses of the aboriginal soldiers with both hands, and began to eat their flesh and blood.
And although Patriarch Sammos had already killed the evil ghost general with bruises all over his body, as the evil ghost soldiers rushed to the shore, more and more evil ghost fighters joined the battle here, the bruised and bruised general broke out again. Unleashing new combat power, the war blade in his hand challenged seven tribal chiefs in a row.
The change of victory and defeat on the battlefield seems to be in this instant.
Many aboriginal fighters wanted to rush towards the battlefield when they saw the patriarch of their tribe lying in a pool of blood.
There was a loophole in the formation that was originally lined up, and the evil ghost fighters rushed towards the camp of the Aigrod tribe along the gap, and it was impossible for the aborigine fighters behind to stop them.
But all the shield fighters ran to the forefront of the battlefield. Almost all the aboriginal fighters in the camp fought against the evil spirits with spears.
Suddenly, the number of deaths and injuries of the aboriginal fighters began to increase sharply, and the ghost fighters once approached the altar set up by the great witches in the camp.
Just when the situation of the Aiglodi tribe's army became precarious, a group of cavalry appeared on the grassland north of the Allinge River. These cavalry were all riding black-horned elk. It was Delia who came from Beishan Pass.
The mana light of the magic-weave structure on her body continued to flow, and the black-horned elk under her body suddenly accelerated, and rushed into the battlefield by the river with an afterimage behind her.
