Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 55. The battlefield covered by arrows

Stand on top of a dune.

Kant's face was calm, but there was a faint light in his eyes.

In the distance, the fire was rising and raging.

"attack."

Kant gave the order in a low voice.

The sound of footsteps sounded behind them, and the Swadian soldiers, who were already ready, began to move forward.

"Bang." Kant also drew out the dagger from his waist.

He walks ahead.

The infantry ranks of 295 men formed three platoons.

All holding spears, trotting and trotting, getting faster and faster.

800 meters ahead is the Gnoll tribe. There are already quite a few gray-brown Gnolls. They left the tent because of the fire on the west side and the messy situation.

As for firefighting, there is no such concept at all.

The most precious thing in the desert is water.

These gnolls even have a slight shortage of daily drinking water supply. Where can there be stored water for firefighting?

But this is precisely the opportunity for Kant.

With the chaos in the Jackal Tribe, no one paid attention at all. At the top of the dune on the east side, a human army of about 300 people was moving fast, implying endless killing intent, directly approaching the edge of the tribe.

"Om-"

The [Power of Deterrence] in Kant's hands unfolded instantly.

The golden lion on the red background turns into a flag that flutters in the wind.

Within a range of 500 meters, the flag has been completely shrouded.

Just in the hearts of those jackals who were staring blankly at the fire in the west, for some reason, a burst of timidity made them beat drums in their hearts, as if they had encountered unknown terror.

Soon, they knew what they had encountered.

Kant led the troops forward quickly.

The group of gnolls hadn't even noticed their raid in the dark.

There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, which was a bit of mockery, but the awe in his eyes had turned into murderous intent at this time.

"Arrow rain cover."

Kant sighed in a deep voice: "The first wave."

The thinking communication system instantly activates a certain golden card in your mind.

Right now.

There was a faint sound of breaking air above Kant's head.

The night was dark, and the sound was getting louder and louder.

Let the gnolls in front of them all turn their heads to look at the sky subconsciously, and their beast-like faces are also dazed and unclear.

Their intelligence is no different from that of a human eight-year-old child.

But in their green eyes, above the sky where the stars are hidden, countless black shadows are becoming more and more obvious with the sound of breaking the air, and more and more in their eyes, more and more dense.

"Swish, swish, swish, swish—"

500 feathered arrows shrieked and ripped apart the air, slicing through the void and hanging down in a beautiful arc.

The sharp iron arrows are tapered and have excellent armor-piercing effects.

Full of lethality.

This feathered arrow is a high-grade iron arrow from the Kingdom of Vicia, a cone-headed arrow dedicated to Vicya's marksman!

At this time, arrows rained down from the sky.

Roots and arrows pierced through the gnoll's fur with ease, and shot the unfortunate fellows who couldn't dodge in the tent. They fell to the ground like hedgehogs, twitching, and then they didn't move.

Nearly two hundred gnolls fell into the rain of arrows.

"Om-"

However, as a large number of gnolls fell, the [Deterrent Power] suddenly fluttered, and an invisible ripple spread out.

Fear spreads in the hearts of these gnolls.

Many of these guys were brought back in the night attack, and they were extremely frightened. Now, out of the corner of my eye, I saw another human army lined up, killing them on the dunes in the dark. As if caught.

The special effect of [Deterrence of the Enemy] is being activated, causing their morale to be severely reduced.

Therefore, this is one of the main reasons why Kant dared to use very few troops to raid the gnoll tribe.

This kind of artifact, as long as you seize the opportunity, can make the enemy be beaten forever!

And now,

This is the opportunity that Kant is looking for!

"kill--"

The Swadian soldiers marched side by side, faster and faster.

The spear in his hand has been put down horizontally, the spear head is pointed forward, and the gnolls who have fallen down with arrows are marching straight into the depths of the tribe. The target is the center of the already chaotic tribe.

If the beheading tactics of the Fatis and the desert robbers fail, Kant and the infantry can still remedy it.

Killing the gnoll shaman is the most important part of this tactical plan.

Holding up [the power of deterring the enemy], Kant led the team to move forward quickly, looking at the hundreds of gnolls who had already reacted in front, his face was calm: "Face the enemy head on, kill!"

"Kill!" Swadia's infantrymen stabbed fiercely with their spears.

The three-row formation is like a dense forest of spears. Although there is no in-situ defense, the spearheads pierce in a continuous scale, but they can charge forward with the spear, but they are like a simplified version of the knight's charge.

"Chichichichichi-"

The spearhead easily pierced the gnoll's body, and even penetrated directly with the force of the piercing.

Nearly 60 gnolls were stabbed to death in front of Kant and the others.

But more gnolls rushed forward even more violently, as if they sensed the desperate situation of lifeless death. Even if they were more timid because of the fear of their comrades in arms, they were still resisting with mace.

"Boom bang bang-"

There was a heavy smashing sound, and more than a dozen Swadian recruits were directly smashed to the ground because of their lack of experience in battle.

And the more gnolls in the back rushed up with scarlet eyes.

Especially when they smelled the blood of human beings, the group of gnolls even grabbed the Swadian recruits who were not completely dead. The head like a beast was close, and the big mouth full of sharp teeth was directly on the exposed arms and thighs. Biting down a large piece of meat and swallowing with bloody mouth, it added a bit of ferocity.

These gnolls are the original cannibal race!

The two sides were staggered at close range, and even these Swadian infantrymen did not have time to draw out their spears, so they could only give up these long pole weapons and fight directly with one-handed weapons.

Even Kant was protected by those 25 light infantrymen armed with fan-shaped shields and Germanic swords. Under the shock of a few gnolls who were not afraid of death, he barely stood on his heels and continued to clench his left hand. , reducing the enemy's morale and maintaining the advance speed of their own fronts, but over time, casualties still occur.

"For Swadia!"

The infantry from Swadia were shouting.

Their bodies were covered in filthy, smelly blood, but the corpses of the gnolls under their feet were one after another.

Although they suffered casualties, the casualties of the gnolls were even more tragic.

The death of more than 100 Swadians brought at least 300 gnolls lying on the ground as corpses.

And Kant and the others are getting closer and closer to the center of the tribe. Even Kant can already see with the naked eye. Just a few hundred meters away, more than a dozen figures on warhorses are rushing to the left and right. Kill with the big tent.

At the same time, the soldiers around him also became less and less as the gnoll counterattacked.

"Arrow rain cover!"

Kant stretched out his hand, and the data flow instantly materialized in his eyes.

In the sky, the sound of breaking through the air reappeared, and the salvos from 500 Wikia marksmen reappeared in this world. It was like a heavy rain that cleared the world, and the more than 200 gnolls were cleaned up in front of them with a crackle.

After wiping the blood on his face, Kant's face was slightly hideous, and his voice was high: "Continue to kill!"

"kill!"

But at the same time, the remaining Swadian warriors around him seemed to be exploding with hidden power. Short swords, fighting hoes, and hatchets swung wildly, advancing faster.

These gnolls seem to have met the morale of extreme fear, the blood red and killing intent in their eyes quickly faded, on the contrary, panic and fear appeared in their eyes.

"Om-"

The [Power of Deterring the Enemy] in Kant's hands suddenly burst into a substantial wave, instantly covering the surroundings.

"The gnoll shaman has been killed!"

The sharp-eyed light infantry pointed to the front, his face extremely excited: "General Fatis succeeded!"

Kant also stared at the front.

Right at the big tent, the gnoll shaman, who was originally leaning on crutches, was hit with four or five short javelins all over his body.

And according to the effect of [Deterrence of the Enemy], which directly weakened the gnoll's morale, it can already be guessed that the gnoll shaman was definitely beheaded successfully and stepped into death!

"Ow—"

The surrounding gnolls howled more and more.

But more often they just dropped the mace and fled directly outside.

No one dared to continue to resist, and their entire army was defeated.

"Win." A thought appeared in Kant's mind, looking at the gnolls who were escaping with their backs to him, and holding the [Deterrence of the Enemy], he showed no mercy, but said in a deep voice: "Pursue, Kill them!"

Take advantage of the victory to pursue and completely destroy the living force of the gnoll.

Kant doesn't need too many captives yet.

The reason is very simple, the dead gnolls do not need to be watched, and Kant's troops are now less than 100 people.
