Warlord: King of All Clans

A Khan's one hundred werewolf vanguard warriors were all wearing iron-studded armor, iron helmets, and hand axes or chain hammers hanging from their waists. Some of the werewolf warriors also carried crossbows produced in the river bend on their backs.

Their leather armor is just a simple leather vest with iron plates inlaid on the inside of the vital parts. Its defense is not as high as the legion chain mail of the human regular infantry.

In the river bay where even the wild hunters have begun to equip themselves with legion chain mail, their equipment is really a bit simple, but in the eyes of the werewolves themselves, it has been a complete transformation.

After all, they were a primitive tribe before. Not to mention iron smelting, even the textile technology had been lost. They relied entirely on fangs and claws for hunting, and their living conditions were no different from those of the wolves in the Wolfpack.

The werewolf's fur is equivalent to a chain mail. After wearing this leather vest and iron helmet, it can turn fatal injuries into serious injuries and serious injuries into minor injuries in battle.

With werewolves' recovery ability comparable to that of trolls, as long as they are not fatal, serious injuries can be quickly recovered into minor injuries, and minor injuries will not affect the battle at all.

Apart from iron-studded vests and iron helmets, they had no other armor on their bodies. Their muscular arms and thighs were exposed, and their wolf fur reflected the oily luster as they ran, like black satin.

The werewolf, more than two meters tall, climbed quickly on all fours on the hillsides on both sides of the fortress and quickly approached the bottom of the city wall.

After joining the River Bend, Akhan has been working hard to learn the River Bend culture - or rather, to learn the kobold culture, in an attempt to lead his people to integrate into this large tribe that embraces all races.

During this period, more and more werewolves crossed the dangerous Buck Mountains and joined his clan. The original werewolf tribe of 300 people now has nearly 500 members.

But Khan did not hide his strength any more. Instead, he cooperated with the dog-headed men sent by Olivia to carefully register the people and pay taxes.

His abiding by the rules also earned him due respect from his fellow tribesmen. Hewan would consider them when allocating territory and would seek their opinions when issuing policies.

They will also be taken with us when we go to war.

Military service is not only an obligation, but also a kind of citizen's right. Only conscripted soldiers have the opportunity to obtain spoils of war, while slave soldiers and serfs do not have this opportunity.

A Khan's decision to get close to humans was also opposed by many tribesmen, especially the older elders, who were well aware of the cunningness of humans.

They would rather continue to live a primitive life and keep their distance from the river bend.

But A Khan knew that it would be impossible for the werewolves to rise up relying on the hundreds of people in the mountains, and they did not have the capital to compete with the human race in a short period of time.

It can even be said that they now do not even have the strength to compete with the neighboring Gnoll tribe.

Because the Fisa called werewolves big dog-headed men, they also called dog-headed men little dog-headed men.

If you don't work hard to integrate into the river bend and don't take the opportunity to occupy a seat, the result will be isolation, exclusion, and suppression. In the end, you will have to hand over your living space and go back to your own mountains.

So when Strong recruited the werewolf tribe to fight in the name of Six and asked them to be the first to attack the city as the vanguard, although A Khan was extremely reluctant, he still led the most elite warriors of his tribe.

Werewolves who learned how to bathe and dress, like the original kobolds, quickly transformed from hairy beasts into a civilized race.

Today's werewolf warriors all have shiny fur, making them look even more elite.

One hundred werewolf warriors are one hundred low-level transcendents. With basic armor, they are enough to fight against ten times the number of human regular soldiers.

Behind them were a hundred gnoll commandos led by Rambowan and a hundred elite kobold scouts.

This is a troop of ogres that has been incorporated into the regular army of River Bay. They are equipped with standard weapons issued by River Bay, but as light infantry, they only have mail shirts and leather armor for self-defense.

The werewolf attacking team in front quickly approached the city wall, then jumped up, with sharp claws popping out from their fingertips, firmly grasping the gaps in the wall tiles, and then climbing up with their bare hands.

The attack route they chose was the area on both sides of the city wall that was close to the mountains. Below was a steep slope. Not to mention weapons such as siege towers, there was no place to set up even the simplest ladders.

Normal troops cannot attack from here at all, so the guards there are very sparsely guarded.

By the time the defenders discovered them and called for reinforcements in time, bringing rolling logs and slingshots, most of the werewolves had already clung to the city wall, and the leader had even climbed to the upper half, preparing to climb over the battlements and occupy the wall.

As for the jackals and kobolds behind them, they pounced on the city wall one by one, scratched it hard, leaving countless claw marks on the wall, and then slid down weakly.

They can’t climb walls.

The gnolls were lying on the city wall, completely dumbfounded. They were commandos specially trained by Rambowan, equipped only with small round shields and one-handed hammers, used to attract firepower for the elite gnoll scouts in small-scale mountain battles.

At this time, the kobold scouts saw that they could not climb up, so they took out their crossbows, aimed upwards and shot, providing fire cover for their werewolf brothers who were attacking the city.

The gnolls could only look up at their werewolf brothers' butts stupidly, and then were smashed to death by falling logs and stones.

Rambowan angrily kicked the commando captain Tali away, "Stupid dog! Go to the city gate! Support the fat kobold!"

After Rambowan was promoted, he also reused his two squad leaders, Tali and Hogg, and appointed them as the captain of the werewolf commandos and the captain of the kobold scouts respectively.

The werewolf Tali came to his senses, and with a woof, he led his team members and ran towards the city gate along the wall.

At this time, the werewolves had already pounced on the top of the city wall. Following Strong's orders, they did not fight with the infantry defending the city, but went straight to the archers, killing them wantonly and disrupting their shooting.

The primary task of the vanguard troops attacking the city is to open a gap, occupy the battle area, and provide space for subsequent siege troops.

This requires a life-and-death battle with the defenders, using the few to defeat the many, or even one to defeat ten.

But this group of werewolves did not need to fight to the death because they had no backup.

However, the number of werewolves was too small. Some were killed by rolling logs and stones, some were shot down by crossbows, and only half of them were able to quickly climb into the city.

These werewolves ran around on the city walls, causing chaos. Many of them were eventually surrounded by the elite infantry of the defenders and were stabbed to death by seven or eight spears.

With the interference of dozens of werewolf warriors, the long-range firepower of Buck Fortress was reduced to the minimum. Strong came to the city gate with his artillery and musket regiments under the sparse rain of arrows.

The ogres trapped in the red temperature were still trying to break down the door.

Buck Fortress is not big, but it is also an imperial fortress. As the dividing point between the western border and the northern border, it is one of the checkpoints that can be marked on the imperial strategic map.

The specifications of the gate of Buck Fortress are higher than those of Isenpol, and are comparable to the main cities of major earls.

In other words, the rune array above lost its function hundreds of years ago and became a decoration. Otherwise, the ogre's wooden stick would not have been able to smash it open.

Several ogres took turns attacking and smashed the gate of Buck Fortress hundreds of times, but the gate was only a bunch of cracks and did not break.

Kroger had already entered a completely red-hot state. Seeing that Strong's mount was approaching but his mission was not yet completed, he shouted to his tribesmen to retreat, retreated more than ten meters himself, and then launched a charge towards the city gate.

His bronze shoulder armor collided with the city gate, and there was an ear-piercing crashing sound. Then the entire city gate collapsed and broke into pieces, scattering all over the ground.

Kroger was disoriented and lay on the ground for a while, unable to get up.

The Minotaur Strong had already arrived. When he dismounted and took a look, he and the ogre were both dumbfounded.

There is another city gate at the other end of the city gate tunnel.
