Lord Harland
Chapter 20 Surprise Attack
When the three Richards returned to Baron Haddon's castle, Ron handed the kobold head to military judge Owen.
Although military merit cannot be traded after registration, there is still room for manipulation before registration.
Noble officers usually exchange gold coins, land and other resources for the heads of orc professionals to accumulate merit.
The approximate price is one hundred gold coins for a small work.
Many professionals who want to retire and live a peaceful life often exchange orc heads for money, land, shops, women, etc.
However, the vast majority of enterprising professionals will basically not give up their merits in order to break through the realm and become a noble.
For example, the Haaland family sometimes spends a lot of money to purchase meritorious deeds.
Richard told the squadron leader Diarra about the detected information.
Hearing that the orcs blocking the passage were not strong enough, Diarra said excitedly: "After you left, two squadrons of scouts were stationed in the Baron Castle last night.
This cavalry is a reconnaissance brigade directly under the legion, and the officer leading the team is Marvin Tuttle, captain of the legion's reconnaissance brigade.
Captain Marvin is a lieutenant colonel officer, a sixth-level professional, and is now the commander of the castle garrison.
Reinforcements arrived in advance, and Richard asked a little strangely: "Did the orcs fail to block the road in the direction of Flame Castle, and our messenger for help successfully arrived at the legion headquarters?"
"The orcs successfully blocked the passage, and Harlin and Milito have disappeared. It was the legion commander General Lanson who noticed the anomaly and sent Captain Marvin to our side to investigate the enemy's situation. Along the way, Captain Marvin also hunted Got a third-level harpy."
After listening to Diarra's story, Richard suddenly realized.
"Destroying the kobold squadron and opening up the canyon passage, our strength is slightly insufficient. With Captain Marvin as a scout, this battle will be very easy."
Diarra nodded and said: "I think so too. We will immediately notify Captain Marvin of the enemy situation and wait for the commander's decision."
The two of them went to Lieutenant Colonel Marvin's barracks together, and Richard told them in detail about the enemy situation they had detected this time.
Marvin listened very carefully and asked for details from time to time. Every time he got to the point, he looked like a man with rich experience and attention to details.
After hearing the information, Marvin thought for a moment and said decisively: "The attack must be fast. If it is delayed for too long, the orcs may come for reinforcements. Once the reinforcements arrive, the enemy situation will also change."
Richard strongly agreed with Lieutenant Colonel Marvin's analysis.
“I think we can act immediately and use cavalry directly to attack the kobold camp.
"Okay, how many people can your squadron dispatch?"
Diarra said: "Our squadron has eleven horses, four carriages, and three iron-horned horses. If we recruit some city defense army pack horses, half of the squadron can be mobilized to participate in the operation."
Captain Marvin made a decisive decision.
"After breakfast, we will set off immediately. If we win this battle, I will ask for credit for you. Especially the officers responsible for detecting the enemy's situation are the first to win this battle."
The kobold camp is located at the exit of the canyon passage, about seven kilometers from Haddon Castle.
This seven-kilometer road is in the forest and can easily be ambushed by the enemy.
Generally speaking, the speed of passing through these seven kilometers of forest roads will be very slow. When you arrive at the entrance of the canyon, you will be discovered by the kobolds early, and the suddenness of the attack will be lost.
Lieutenant Colonel Marvin was a decisive person. He trusted the intelligence from Richard's investigation and did not send a large number of scouts into the forest. Instead, they used a skirmish formation to drag the team very long, quickly passed the forest road in a very dangerous manner, and unexpectedly arrived near the kobold camp.
Upon discovering the enemy's arrival, the kobold camp immediately became panicked. Commander Orteus shouted loudly and raised his antlers to defend against the cavalry charge.
Marvin quickly organized the cavalry formation, and taking advantage of the panic in the kobold camp, he personally led the team to charge towards the kobold camp.
Richard was riding on the iron horned horse, and the sound of heavy footsteps rang in his ears.
The three brothers rode Warcraft. Compared with ordinary war horses, Warcraft mounts were more powerful, covered in heavy armor, and had amazing defensive capabilities.
Wearing heavy armor, the speed of the Warcraft mount is not slow at all, surpassing that of ordinary light cavalry.
The most important thing is that the Warcraft mount possesses bloodline spells, has good combat effectiveness, is equivalent to a professional, has a relatively smart IQ, and can easily communicate with humans.
Richard took the lead, panting heavily, and the fierce wind blew against his face, causing his cheeks to sting slightly.
Richard's pupils suddenly shrank, and when he released his right hand, the arrow had already left the string!
There was a layer of light red light attached to the long arrow, and it accurately shot a running kobold.
Otaeus ignored the scolding of his running men, and suddenly a red light flashed in his sight, and the arrow fiercely killed a kobold squad leader.
The kobold commander looked up and saw dozens of arrows shooting at him. These arrows were extremely accurate and killed more than a dozen soldiers in an instant.
One round of feather arrows cost him one-tenth of his soldiers.
Seeing that the enemy was once again readying his bow and arrows, Ortaeus' eyes almost burst out with flames. He drew his sword, roared wildly, and rushed out of the camp, trying to kill the enemy.
Richard sneered and pointed the arrow at the kobold commander. He loosened his finger and the arrow was as fast as lightning, stabbing Ortaeus's chest fiercely.
Otaeus stretched out his hand to lift a shield, his fighting spirit lit up in his hand, and the shield glowed white, blocking him in front of him.
The arrow hit the shield violently, and the powerful momentum made Orteus take a step back.
Before it could react, Richard had already used the continuous arrow method and kept firing his bow.
Although it is not easy to use force while riding on a horse, you cannot fully draw the enchanted bow and arrow, which can bring out the strongest power and longest range of this bow.
But a strength close to nine points, a fourth-level archery skill, and a powerful enchanted bow are enough to make the arrows shot by Richard highly lethal.
Four consecutive arrows were shot at the same location, and there were already dents on the enchanted shield.
Four feather arrows hit the shield, and the powerful force immediately made Ortaeus unsteady, and he fell backwards involuntarily.
Seeing that the enchanted shield was about to be destroyed, Orteus had no time to feel his body hurt. He got up anxiously. Before he had time to make a defensive posture, Richard had already rushed over on the iron horned horse.
Richard's riding skills are good and have been upgraded to the third level, surpassing most of the scout cavalry, and he can simply communicate with the iron horned horse.
He gently tapped the horse's neck, and the single horn on the head of the iron horned horse immediately glowed with gray light, and a white beam of light suddenly hit the enemy.
