Lord Highlander

As soon as fifty thousand ghost pattern soldiers and ants appeared at the foot of the isolated peak, the evil ghost warriors gathered on the isolated peak became a mess.

The general was trapped on the top of the mountain, and those human magicians laid several walls of fire on the scorched earth. The ghost warriors were already like ants on a hot pot. They couldn't even decide to break through the wall of fire in one go, rescue the general on the top of the mountain, or retreat to the foot of the mountain. in the woodland.

Now seeing giant dark red soldier ants gathered at the foot of the mountain, the ghost warriors knew that a life-and-death battle would follow.

As a berserker, Andrew is like a lunatic on the battlefield, and he always takes the lead in every battle.

This was the first time he charged with a group of soldier ants. The dark red soldier ants formed a tight horizontal line behind Andrew. They huddled together one by one and followed Andrew, looking like a dark wall. red wall.

Andrew had heard Suldak talk about these ghost fighters more than once, and he knew that the ghost fighters were born with supernatural powers. Once they entered their familiar fighting rhythm, it might take some effort to win.

But these evil ghost fighters are all brains and lack flexibility on the battlefield, so as long as they grasp their weakness, they can easily win.

This is the first large-scale battle of ghost-striped soldiers and ants. In fact, Andrew is not sure, because in his impression these ghost-striped soldiers are also very weak. When fighting in the dark worm valley, every time he meets him The Constructed Knights will be beaten and retreated steadily.

Now, under the command of a group of druids, these ghost-striped soldier ants lined up in a neat row on the battlefield. The heavy armored infantry followed behind the soldier ants, the shield warriors walked in front, and a row of spear warriors followed.

Fifty thousand ghost-patterned soldier ants surrounded the foot of Gufeng Mountain, and all the soldier ants followed closely behind Andrew, approaching the mountainside.

A group of evil ghost warriors gathered together, there were almost three hundred evil ghosts, they formed a battle group, and wanted to take advantage of the soldier ant army at the foot of the mountain to fight a bloody way out before forming an encirclement.

At the beginning of the battle, the ghost warriors ran into the ghost-patterned soldier ants head-on. When the fist swords and war blades in their hands were held up by the ghost-patterned soldier ants' fangs, they found that they could not suppress them with their superior strength. Soldier ants, the last hope of these ghost warriors is gone.

Ghost pattern soldier ants also have tyrannical strength, and their bodies are also covered with a layer of hard armor with black magic patterns.

In hand-to-hand combat, the ghost-pattern soldier ants and the ghost warriors are evenly matched.

But 50,000 soldier ants gathered on the battlefield, but the number of ghost fighters did not exceed a thousand. The advantage in numbers made the ghost fighters quickly annihilate in the ant swarm.

And the heavy armored infantry fighters who followed behind would not miss their chance at this time.

Everyone hid behind the soldier ants and waited. Only when the soldier ants and the ghost warriors were fighting together, the heavy armored infantry soldiers behind would rush up and slash at the ghost warrior's joints with the epee in their hands.

For the heavy armored infantry fighters, the most conspicuous weakness of the ghost fighters is at the bends of their legs. As long as the tendons there are cut along the cracks in the hard armor, the ghost fighters will instantly become crippled.

Surrounded by these soldier ants, Andrew rushed all the way to the top of the mountain without any worries.

After this battle, the evil ghost hunting group was almost wiped out.

When collecting the corpses of the ghost warriors, the infantry soldiers brought back the corpses of more than 700 ghost warriors. The heads of these ghost warriors are too precious. There is a magic core hidden in each head, and a black demon core is indispensable inside. crystal.

Today, the price of unidentified black magic crystals in the market is as high as eighteen gold coins, so there is still no market for this.

At the same time, each evil spirit's head is a good sacrifice, which is more useful for Suldak.

Andrew led the soldier ants to kill the ghost warriors, crossed the gradually extinguished wall of fire, and came to the top of the mountain. Suldak had just treated the wound for the frost wolf Bonita.

Gullitum and Tago were almost covered in bandages, lying side by side on a stretcher next to a boulder, and there were scorched marks everywhere on the top of the mountain.

The three mages of the mage group and Suldak gathered around a map, and reported to Suldak: "After the investigation of our mage group, it can be confirmed that within a range of tens of kilometers around, there is no The second hunting group of evil spirits was found, and no remaining evil spirits escaped..."

Suldak's eyes fell on the map, and he nodded slightly.

He turned his head and saw the blood-stained Andrew approaching with his horse, and asked him, "How does it feel to fight with these soldier ants for the first time?"

"It's not bad. Under the command of these druids, they are very obedient, and they rushed forward in one go." Andrew replied cheerfully.

Then he strode up to Gullitum and Tago, and asked the two mummified people: "Guys, I will avenge you both this time. None of these ghost warriors will be left behind. Beheaded!"

Gulitum and Naohuaer looked at each other unwillingly, but they could only sigh helplessly.

Obviously not satisfied with the performance of this reconnaissance mission.

"Commander Suldak, our investigators found a large amount of hoarded bacon on a cliff on the other side of the river valley. It is likely that these ghost warriors hunted during this period of time." The magician Avid stood On the side, whispered to Suldak.

Hearing such information from Avid, Suldak's eyes lit up immediately.

The reason why Suldak's army of soldier ants walked northward along the forest was also because the edge of the forest was rich in resources, which could solve the problem of rations for ghost-pattern soldier ants.

After all, the logistics department of the military department is not a military business group, and can make all the details perfect.

It has been more than half a month since the army of soldier ants entered the Warsaw plane, but they still haven't been able to solve the material supply problem of the ghost pattern soldier ants.

Now that the investigators of the mage group have discovered the food storage place of the ghost hunting group, they are naturally more concerned.

"How many can there be?" Suldak asked impatiently.

The Avid magician nodded to Suldak, and said to him with a smile:

"There are so many, the whole one-horned bison bacon is almost all over the ceiling of the cave below the cliff..."

The next step was to clean up the battlefield. The heads of these ghost warriors were all taken by Suldak's men. In addition, the infantry soldiers in the legion who were good at skinning could cut the black devil skins from the corpses of these ghost warriors at will.

As for the outermost hard bone armor of the ghost warrior, it is useless. Without the nourishment of the ghost warrior's body, these bone armors will actually become very brittle, and the bone armor cannot be reshaped, so The only thing worth a few dollars on them is the black-striped magic skin.

Moreover, this kind of black-striped magic skin has always been peeled by whoever kills it.

After the peeled black devil skin is exchanged for money, all members of the combat team will distribute it equally.

The biggest reward brought by the victory in the battle is the unidentified black magic crystal filled with a whole treasure chest.

As long as these magic crystals are brought back to the headquarters of the Bena Legion in Handanal City, these black magic crystals will become real military exploits.

Suldak's current title is only a third-class earl, and his territorial expansion in the Bailin plane will not bring him any merit.

However, becoming a plane lord as an earl is indeed a bit lower, and the way he wants to get promoted is nothing more than being a second-rank powerhouse who can enter the big battlefield to obtain meritorious service, or participate in plane wars, whether it is Fight against hell demons, undead ghosts, or the dark forces of hell, you can get black magic crystals.

This was the road he had to take to advance, so Marquis Luther did not stop Duke Newman's paper transfer order at the military department, but rather supported him to participate in this entry into the Warsaw plane and participate in the plane war.

And Suldak didn't expect that he would find a granary of the evil ghost army in this mountain...

When the magician scout took Suldak to the cave of the ghost hunting group under the cliff on the opposite bank, the cave was full of ashes, and the dense bacon on the stone wall on the top of the cave was almost all of them. The whole beast, and some gazelle, elk, and one-horned bison.

When Suldak walked into the cave, he found that the drier part of the cave was full of baked bacon.

And most of these bacon are whole one-horned bison. It can be said that the main target of the ghost hunting group hunting along the Samostuo River is probably groups of one-horned bison, or herds of wild boars and flock.

The food rations for fifty thousand ghost-patterned soldier ants are temporarily settled. This amount of bacon can at least last fifty thousand soldier ants for a month. All food must be brought with them. Ants are very strong.

Suldak studied the map of Handanal County for a long time on the bank of the Samostuo River.

In the end, he did not let the army of soldiers and ants return to the edge of the jungle along the passage opened in the mountains, but boldly decided to lead the army of soldiers and ants to continue northward along the Samostuo River.

For the cavalry, some mountains along the Samostuo River seemed insurmountable. If they encountered some deep valleys or waterfalls on the way, the cavalry had to at least take a detour through the dense jungle, but for the army ants with excellent climbing ability, Said, this is not a problem.

The most important reason for Suldak to make this bold decision is that when the magician investigation team went northward along the river, they found another ghost hunting team. Almost, probably nearly a thousand ghost fighters.

Suldak and Andrew concluded that the valley of the Samostuo River was an important hunting ground for the evil spirit army, and it was from here that they continuously sent food supplies to support the entire evil spirit army.

So this time Suldak decided to wipe out these ghost warriors hunting around along the way, and plundered all the food they had hoarded.

...

Regarding the battle that took place along the banks of the Samostuo River, the top brass of the Evil Ghost Legion had no idea at all...

In fact, after so many years of plane wars, the evil ghost army has become accustomed to the fighting style of the imperial army.

The most powerful army of the Grimm Empire is the Constructed Knights. In addition, the ghost warriors could not withstand the full charge of the heavy cavalry on the frontal battlefield.

Those heavy armored infantry regiments often acted as cannon fodder on the battlefield, and the evil spirits didn't think highly of those infantry regiments.

The simple heavy armored infantry regiment and the evil ghost army can't get any bargains in the jungle battle, but the constructed knights and heavy cavalry regiments can't fight the evil ghosts in the jungle, which has always restricted the Benar army's inability to fight against the evil spirits in the jungle. One of the difficulties of the expansion of the northern mountains.

During the Battle of Moyunling, Duke Newman mobilized nearly 6,000 heavy armored infantry soldiers to open up a forest road from the forest camp to Moyunling in order for the cavalry regiment to enter Moyunling.

The executives of the Evil Ghost Legion did not expect that the soldiers and ants would accidentally discover an important hunting ground of the Evil Ghost Army just after they entered the Warsaw plane. Ants, these soldier ants are in the jungle, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of heavy cavalry.

So as soon as I found a ghost hunting group, I quickly opened my fangs and swallowed it in one gulp.

Of course, the victory in this battle has a lot to do with the fact that the mages let go of their stance and came to help Suldak's lord army scout the surrounding forest area.

The Second Ghost Hunting Group

The third ghost hunting group

The fourth ghost hunting group...

As long as the magician investigators find the ghost hunting group, Suldak will lead the army of soldiers and ants to surround them. The ghosts in this mountain have long been used to this kind of hunting life, and they have never had any problems in the past few years. , making them less vigilant.

They subconsciously think that the imperial cavalry cannot enter the jungle to fight, and even if the infantry regiment comes, it is useless?

Therefore, many ghost fighters believed that hunting in the mountains would not be dangerous at all.

It was this negligence that allowed the army of soldiers and ants to quickly move north to seize the opportunity. Along the way, the magician scouting team found six ghost hunting teams of about 1,000 people on the bank of the Samostuo River, and almost wiped out all of them. The evil ghost warrior has reaped rich spoils.

When the soldier ant army arrived at the upper tributary of the Samosto River, and there was no trace of the ghost warrior in the surrounding mountains, Suldak decided to lead the army ant army westward out of the mountains.

When the army of soldier ants came out of the jungle, almost all of them carried a large amount of smoked meat food on their backs.

This jungle road also allowed Surdak's army of soldier ants to completely bypass the city of Handanal and the large meadow in the north of the county. The army of soldier ants only traveled westward along the edge of the jungle, after a long journey of more than a month. , this soldier ant army carrying food finally arrived at the forest farm camp.

Suldak rode a magic-weave warhorse, walking at the forefront of the army of soldier ants.

The camp in the mountain depression in the distance gradually appeared in front of him, and he couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart. There was still a market on the grassy slope opposite the camp.

Suldak sat on the high hill on his magic-weave warhorse, looking at the camp that was rebuilt from the ruins, feeling his heart beating violently...

'Bang... bang... bang...'

It was as if a huge fist was violently hammering his chest, and the blood in his body seemed to be gushing out of his throat in the next moment...
