Glory Riding and Cutting
Chapter 39 Harassment
Ronan's side was easy to deal with, but some warships with fewer crew members than Ronan's side and warships that were too deep and besieged still encountered trouble.
The pirates coming up from all directions made them tired of coping. Rexxar had to arrange other warships to support them, but generally speaking, the Xuntland side had the upper hand.
Perhaps, as Mario said, the eredar just hired a group of dizzy pirates to block or even weaken the Hinterland support team.
Ronan got so excited that he even led his subordinates back to the pirate ship. The Nord royal guards took the lead, holding up their shields and bowing down the ladder against the pirates' arrows.
When it reached the edge of the deck, it was time to jump directly into the pirate formation, knock down one person with the shield facing down, and then threw three throwing axes into the crowd in a row.
The Nords quickly gained a foothold on the pirate ship, and Ronan led the Vaegir Knights and Templars to follow. Holding the knife with both hands, he slanted open a pirate's scimitar, and then went around behind him, holding the knife with both hands, stabbing back into the pirate's back from the armpit.
Another pirate who wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack Ronan was directly shot in the head by a Vaegir knight who had just boarded the ship with a scepter.
The situation soon became clear, and the pirates were completely unable to cause trouble to Ronan and the others. Many people chose to jump directly into the sea and swim to other pirate ships, but they were immediately named by the elf archers with bows and arrows.
The pirates broke up quickly, leaving behind several captured ships and hundreds of corpses before fleeing in panic. There were only dozens of casualties on Xuntland's side, and they were basically provided by the warship that rushed too hard and fell into siege.
Ronan returned to the Breaker from the pirate ship, took the towel handed by his subordinates and wiped the blood splashed on his face, and threw the towel into the sea after wiping the sword.
At this time, the sea area was already red with blood, and many shark fins came out of the water and paddled around. Obviously, the smell of blood attracted these predators, and they traveled thousands of miles to enjoy a feast here.
The warships were basically fine, and a small scratch did not affect the route. Only one ship was hit by several pirate ships in succession, and it was seriously damaged. It had to be replaced by a relatively intact pirate ship.
The fleet didn't waste time searching for loot, because these pirates didn't have much loot, at most there was some food, drink, and weapons on board, and the Hinterland troops were all lacking.
A fire burned all the remaining ships, and the fleet set off again.
The Snake Cult believers really didn't expect these pirates to defeat the Hinterland army, but they did disgust the Hinterland army.
Although the smaller ships make the pirate ships inferior to warships in terms of combat effectiveness and troop transport capacity, they are much ahead in terms of speed. Hinterland's fleet could not catch up with them. They hang behind the fleet all the time and come to harass them every day.
Although they did not cause any casualties to the Xuntland troops, but they themselves lost a lot, they successfully doubled the fleet's sailing time and completed the task of delaying.
When they finally arrived at the port of Terra, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although these pirates did not cause them too much trouble, the day-to-day harassment still exacerbated the fatigue caused by the long-distance voyage.
The fleet slowly docked at the reserved place in Terra Port, from here you can see the magnificent city not far away.
The khaki-colored city of Terra stands on a cliff not far from the port. There is only one exit for the entire city, and it occupies a favorable location, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The situation doesn't look too bad. The coalition forces haven't reached Terra City yet.
Otherwise, the fleet would not be able to dock smoothly at all. As soon as the fleet came to a stop, a group of Terrans in long gowns and turbans greeted them.
Rexxar immediately chatted with the other party's leader. Ronan didn't care what they were talking about, but paced back and forth on the ground to feel the feeling of being down-to-earth. Life at sea during this period made him feel like he was going to float.
At the same time, the system prompts that the first ring task has been completed, but the second ring task has not been triggered. Presumably, it should be triggered after entering the city of Terra and understanding the combat mission.
The supplies have been unloaded from the ship and loaded into the carriage with the help of the people of Terra, and the horses have also been led out. After more than a month of sea travel, the fur of the horses has dimmed a lot, and some of them are still alive. sick.
At this moment, Rexxar had finished chatting with General Terra, and the team moved again, forming a long formation.
An hour later, the troops entered the city of Terra, and the soldiers settled down in the arranged barracks. Ronan, Mario and other team leaders followed Rexxar to the Terra Palace to discuss the upcoming battle.
Enduring physical exhaustion and hunger, we finally arrived at our destination after another half an hour of walking.
At this time, the king of Terra and the senior generals of Terra were already waiting at a large council table.
King Gaoge of Terra is fifty-three years old this year. Paleness has infected his hair horns, wrinkles have crawled up his face, and his once strong body has also weakened.
He will abdicate in a few years, so he is even more eager to win this war, because he doesn't want to be the king of subjugation, at least Terra can't decline under his hands.
Standing on the left side of King Terra is the eldest prince Gao Gen, who is also the heir of Taira. King Taila has a son. Gao Gen is only about 20 years old, and he is young and vigorous. The general in scales defended fiercely.
On the right side of King Terra is the generalissimo of Terra——Hogule. Hogule was the first general to follow King Terra. He accompanied King Terra to win many victories, but the growth of age made him no longer what he used to be. The impulse has become more stable.
At this time, Kogan and Hogule were arguing because of disagreement in strategy. Kogan advocated a radical counterattack, while Hogule advocated a stable defense. King Terra sat at the head and said nothing.
Seeing the Xuntland reinforcements headed by Rexxar enter the hall led by the guards, King Terra stretched out his hand to signal Gao Gen and Hogule to stop.
After Rexxar bowed to King Terra, he took the lead to find a seat and sat down. Ronan also saluted and sat down in a decent manner. During the month at sea, Mario has specialized in this aspect. Trained Ronan. After all, Ronan knew nothing about etiquette in various countries.
In addition to the Silvermoon Clan headed by Ronan Mario and the Nebula Clan headed by Rexxar, the Elf Mage Inela Huanyu representing the Huanyu Clan was also supported this time. I heard that she is Sesma's sister , representing the elven knight Norlin-Sunsun of the Sunstrider clan, and Sandora-Spiritwood, the elf ranger representing the Spiritwood clan.
Besides these five major families, there are six hundred mercenary troops led by Rexxar.
These people are the core figures of their respective families. The purpose of sending troops to support Terra this time is to fight for the name of their own young master and add chips to the throne with the same purpose as Mario.
