Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords.

Chapter 271 One-sided

Winter has gone and spring has arrived. It is already June in Derby. The dense grass that is taller than the calves is dancing in the wind. The lord is lying in the grass, holding a telescope and looking at the densely packed demons like a swarm of ants on the hillside.

The place they choose to stay is very unique. From a living perspective, this location can block the howling wind and prevent them from catching cold without clothes.

When many caravans set up camp, they usually choose such a leeward slope, which is a type of camp that the guards like very much.

But from a military point of view, only a fool whose brain has been eaten by goblins would do this.

In the unfortified basin, all it needed was a team of heavily armored cavalry charging down the gentle slope to make them regret making such a decision.

As it happens, the lord not only has a team of cavalry, but also a reinforced version. Once the horses and men, whose armor weighs several thousand pounds in total, charge down the slope, the momentum is definitely a visual feast of crushing everything.

"Sir, how do we fight them? Their number is nearly seven times ours." Fujiro was also lying in the grass. The smell of sulfur in the air was really unbearable for him, and his brows were furrowed.

In fact, he had no idea why the Lord of Highcliff Castle had to lie in the bushes to conduct reconnaissance himself, but considering that the other party's military talent in dealing with small battles was almost top-notch.

There must be some deep meaning behind this practice, so people will follow suit.

Levi observed the enemy army. In fact, he was very curious about how such a makeshift team could destroy Andao and his two thousand elite cavalry.

The scouts they sent out were just a bunch of little demons with fighting power comparable to that of goblins, and they were easily dealt with by the gnoll scouts. Whether it was camp layout or anything else, they were completely laymen.

The only thing worth praising was the plan to attack Cologne at night.

But it was not until he saw the figures in the center of the demon camp that he began to understand a little.

There were seven or eight demons with six arms. Their cold expressions made the low-ranking demons and Babu demons around them dare not approach them at all. Their lower bodies were thick snake tails with earth-brown scales.

These demons were three blades high just standing there, like warriors in mythology. Their bodies were like blocks of iron that had been hammered a thousand times, as if all the bravery of the demons was concentrated in them.

They were wearing the shells of unknown beasts and armor woven from animal tendons. Their six arms held various weapons such as long swords, battle axes, bone sticks, etc. Their eyes flashed with the light of destruction. Wherever their eyes looked, the demons cowered and crawled on the ground.

This is the six-armed snake demon that is also famous in the "History Book of the Abyss".

The status of the six-armed snake demon among demons is just like that of a knight who is proficient in fighting spirit among humans, like a red dragon among five-colored dragons, and like a thunder giant among giants. They are all the bravest and most outstanding warriors in the tribe.

It is said that these six-armed snake demons are weapon masters, proficient in various weapons, and can even use magic.

However, to know whether it is exactly as recorded in the book, you have to measure it yourself.

"Do we need to discuss how to fight?" Li Wei put away the telescope. "The heavy cavalry will repeatedly penetrate and destroy their morale. When they are about to flee, the light cavalry will chase them and kill them all."

"In fact, if you average it out, one person only kills six or seven demons. In fact, it may be less than that."

Levi patted Fujiro's shoulder and asked doubtfully, "Old Fujiro, you can't even kill a few demons, right?"

After this sentence came out, Fujiro couldn't utter the next sentence, and could only nod fiercely: "Then do it!"

If it were him alone, facing a force nearly seven times greater than his own, even if his men were all cavalry, he would not choose to give it a try, but would notify the main army corps to hold them aside and wait for their support.

But now with the leadership of the Lord of High Cliff Castle who had a brilliant record, he felt that the gap was not that big.

The other party had obviously looted the village, and the demons were tearing into food in big mouthfuls. The food was naturally various livestock and humans.

These free people from other villages were obviously not as lucky as the village of Yada.

Levi crawled up from the grass, put on his helmet, and walked towards the back with the gait of a dragon and a tiger.

Scimitars were unsheathed, armors clashed, and the heavy hooves made a pleasing sound. Teams of centaurs with grim smiles in their eyes looked like black-armored warriors from ancient times, filling the world with a chilling chill.

"Sir." Gus dragged a huge double-edged broadsword, his expression as calm as a lake, but his kicking hooves proved that he was already restless inside.

Ever since they moved south, they have had the idea of ​​showing the bravery of the Centaurs, but they have always been engaged in siege warfare, and due to their body structure they can only patrol or provide support with bows and arrows.

Now it is finally their turn to take action, so how could they really not have any emotions at all?

More importantly, the gift from the God of War made it obsessed with improving its strength, and it had long been eager to use the blood of its enemies to forge its own ladder of promotion.

"My lord, everyone is ready." Hogg bowed slightly, followed by the gnoll cavalry holding scimitars.

"These little punks are going to regret coming into this world."

Levi turned over and rode on Sad Wind. The three wolf heads roared ferociously and he swung his sword:
"Charge the entire army!"

He clamped his legs together, and the ferocious monster, which had been impatient for a long time, rushed out like an arrow.

Behind him were the heavy cavalry following closely, forming a V-shaped charge formation, and Levi was the most indestructible spearhead.

They were above the demon camp, where a large area extended to the gentle slope below. If they did not take advantage of this terrain when their side was composed entirely of cavalry, they would be complete fools.

The charge of three hundred giant beasts weighing several thousand pounds caused the earth to tremble, and the dull sound like thunder filled the sky.

This tremendous momentum naturally attracted the attention of the demons. The highest-ranking six-armed snake demons roared desperately, causing the entire demon army to begin organizing to fight the enemy.

At the front was a group of little demons. These lowest-level demons from the abyss were only three or four feet tall, without even a piece of cloth on their bodies, and held weapons such as stones or dung forks.

It can be said that it is a complete alien version of the goblins.

They also have the goblins' character of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. The charge of their heavily armed men and cavalry is no less than a landslide with countless boulders falling.

The armies that can face the charge of these tough guys are all world-class armies, and these makeshift teams in front of them are obviously not.

Although these little demons were forced to turn around and meet the enemy due to the pressure from the high-level demon, as the enemy got closer and closer, they could not withstand the pressure and ran towards both sides.

Just like Moses parting the Red Sea, Levi led his men and cavalry straight into the heart of the demon camp as if they were in an empty space.

Compared with the smaller demons, the Babu demons were obviously more courageous. They actually began to hold shields and spears in an attempt to resist the charge of the heavy cavalry.

As a result, the braver they were, the more tragic their ending was. The soldiers and horses, with an average height of three blades and a weight of several thousand pounds, did not need to do anything but stand in front of them with lances in hand.

Just like a string of candied haws, it was instantly filled with four-blade lances. With a strong swing, these demons flew out like broken sacks, with holes as big as bowls on their chests.

They didn't even need lances, the potential energy of their own weight alone was enough to knock the demons away more than ten blades. These demons thoroughly experienced what it was like to be hit head-on by these giant beasts after they launched a charge - it was like Mount Tai collapsing, huge rocks rolling down, and they were about to be smashed into minced meat, but they were helpless.

If this is a game, the kill information in the lower left corner would have probably flooded the screen, or even gotten stuck without having time to display.

These demons were like a piece of cheese. The overwhelming force of the charging troops melted it in an instant like a red-hot knife.

It was a visual feast that was even more impactful than the charge of the barbarian warriors. The demons fell in droves, no matter if they raised their spears to defend against the impact or put up their looted shields. They were even more powerless than a praying mantis trying to block a chariot.

Levi has always been afraid that these reckless men in Gaoya Castle would become addicted to fighting, so he often instilled in them the philosophy that only a truly elite army has - that achieving strategic goals is far more important than killing the enemy. This is the eternal standard that determines whether one is a small fry or an elite warrior.

Thanks to the fact that he had long been like a god in the hearts of these men, his words were implemented perfectly.

No one cared about the demons on both sides, and no one cared about the enemies wailing after being knocked away. They had only one goal, which was to break through the demon camp and divide the battlefield.

Once they stop, no matter how brave they are, they will be overwhelmed by the demons who will react using human wave tactics.

These demons are not regular legions, and their own officer system is just high-level demons managing low-level demons.

They were accustomed to using their numbers to bully the few, and they would rush in together in a swarm when fighting, and they had no idea how to resist the charge of regular cavalry.

No matter how the high-level demons scolded, the barely maintained discipline could not be shaken off and suddenly dissipated.

The demons that were charged began to flee in all directions.

Hogg, who couldn't wait any longer, immediately let out a wolf howl into the sky. Countless wolf riders rushed down the slope, bit by bit devouring the fleeing demons on both sides.

Levi had already gone crazy with killing. He didn't care how many demons were in front of him. He just swung his sword down, and the prompts in his mind continued.

In his opinion, these demons were not as good as the indigenous coalition in the wilderness, but he knew that the team of High Cliff Castle was no longer the same as before.

Now they have this feeling, just like they have reached a certain level in the wilderness and then come to the Novice Village.

And this demon army is just a vanguard.

Fujiro stood on the gentle slope in the distance and watched all this. This was the second time he saw the lord fight with his own eyes. Every battle would refresh his worldview once again.

Not to mention the heavy cavalry, the knight rushing in the front alone can be conservatively estimated to be worth at least a thousand soldiers.

He was definitely not exaggerating, because in such a short period of time, although there was no precise calculation, the number of souls killed by the opponent's sword was definitely more than three hundred.

"It's our turn."

Fujiro patted the shoulder of the officer next to him.

"Yes... yes, my lord."

The officer had been stunned by the shocking scene before him, and after coming back to his senses he quickly spoke.

Fujiro did not blame him, because anyone who had not witnessed the horror of the Lord of High Cliff Castle with his own eyes would be shocked at this moment.

If nothing unexpected happens, these demons will be unable to resist the tactics of the top cavalry charge led by Levi, the peerless general. This highly developed form of troops is absolutely impossible to resist by human power.

It was only a matter of time before their formation was breached and they were defeated.

Unfortunately, this world is not just about human power.

In this season when the weather has just started to warm up and is still a little chilly, Levi actually felt that the space seemed to be getting hot.

Being in a high position, he could easily find the source of the change based on the information available.

That was the location of a group of six-armed snake demons, with a hunched, burly goat-horned demon in the middle.

This goat-horned demon has only one blade and five or six horns, blood-red hooves, a thin body, a pair of scarlet eyes, a long beard on his chin, a scepter inlaid with a skull in his hand, and beast teeth of various sizes hanging around his neck.

Any normal person would associate this kind of dress with "wizards, shamans, and priests."

The facts prove that this is indeed the case.

It held a scepter in its hand, its lips opened and closed rapidly, muttering unknown words in a low voice, and the red light coming out of the eyes of the head became brighter and brighter.

When the lord looked over, the other party's last chant ended with a roar.

"Lakanishu!"

With the intervention of some force, the space seemed to begin to distort. A fist-sized flame appeared out of nowhere and fell to the ground. It expanded in an instant and formed a flaming giant that was eight or nine blades tall.

"Summoning magic?" The lord frowned as he looked at the fire giant.

I immediately thought of the stone giant in the town of Kalia. There was no doubt that the other party had communicated with the elemental plane and summoned fire elemental creatures.

But the difference between the two is that the stone giant has a physical body, which allows this melee warrior to perfectly unleash his enormous strength.

But this creature made of fire obviously doesn't buy it.

The goat-horned demon wizard showed a smug and weird smile on his face. He waved his scepter and the fire giant roared and rushed towards the leading cavalry general. The demons along the way melted instantly like ice cubes touching hot oil.

"Everyone spread out!"

The lord waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately dispersed to both sides, finally bypassing the fire giant, with Gus acting as the spearhead to continue the charge.

This thing is not something that the people can deal with, and there is no need to sacrifice human lives.

Although physical attacks probably won't work on this thing, it doesn't mean that the lord is scared.

After practicing the "Book of Holy Words", he is no longer the reckless man who was completely helpless against magic.

"It's a good opportunity for me to try this trick out on you!" The Lord sneered and began to mobilize the Holy Light Seed in his body.
