Chapter 24: Shuki Village (2)
Shuki Village is the fief of Knight Soma, but his usual job is to look after the logging site near Shuki Village for his fiefdom, Baron Wilga.
Knight Soma is 35 years old this year. He has a square face, short blond hair, a resolute expression, and wears knight's mail armor. He is a man of decisive actions.
He was brave in the battle to defend the lumberyard, leading the way and killing more than ten goblins by himself, truly a tough guy.
The Goblin's strategy is very meticulous, and it can be seen that there are think tanks behind the scenes giving advice.
They first sent out a small force to feint an attack on the logging camp to attract the attention of the Soma Knights, and then sent out a large force of hundreds of people to launch a surprise attack at noon when the villagers were busy cooking.
If it weren't for Knight Soma's strict law enforcement, prohibiting his soldiers from being lazy, and requiring them to train every day and stand guard 24 hours a day, it would have been impossible for the soldiers to discover the abnormality before the goblin army attacked Shuki Village.
Unlike a town protected by walls, Shuki Village's defenses are extremely weak.
If there must be any defensive buildings, they are only the watchtowers built outside the village and the wooden fences more than one meter high.
When the goblin army rushed out of the woods a few hundred meters away from the village, the bell on the watchtower used to warn of enemy attacks echoed over the village.
Due to the many frictions between the nobles, the common people in this world can be said to be full of martial virtues.
Many farmers look honest on weekdays, but in fact, each of these farmers is very strong. If they have weapons in their hands, one or two goblins really can't do anything to them.
But the biggest difference between human civilians and goblins is that goblins are not afraid of death when they think they have the advantage.
They will only choose to escape when they determine that they are at an absolute disadvantage.
Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is almost something ingrained in the goblins' nature.
Hundreds of goblins rushed in from the west entrance of Shumu Village.
Since there were occasional wars between nobles, the soldiers left behind in the village were very experienced.
As soon as the bell in the watchtower rang, they began to close the wooden gate to the village, but it took some time to completely close this heavy gate.
For a village, if it is not possible to build stone walls and iron gates, it is still possible to surround the village with wooden doors and wooden fences.
The village gate was quickly closed, and when the large group of goblins approached, a goblin running in the front happened to rush into the gap before the gate closed.
As it entered the village and was about to raise the knife in its hand to chop people, two spears pierced directly into its chest, nailing it to the back of the village gate that had just been closed.
At the same time, several goblins who couldn't stop their cars slammed against the gate, causing the gate at the entrance of the village to shake.
If it weren't for a few soldiers desperately holding on behind the door, the gate to the west entrance of the village would have been almost knocked open.
"Bolt the door! Hurry up!" A young warrior wearing full leather armor and holding a sword and shield shouted loudly, reminding his soldiers not to panic and just follow the order: "Archers, get ready! Free fire!"
The village of Shuki has a guard team of about fifty people, led by the knight squire of the Soma Knight, that is, a young warrior holding a sword and shield and giving orders.
The knight's squire's name was Tarka, and he was the most trusted squire of Knight Soma.
The west entrance of the village was the main target of the goblins' attack. Talka's servants assigned thirty people here, and the other twenty were responsible for guarding the other three gates.
Among these thirty people, there are a total of ten archers alone, which is exactly the number of a small team.
Archers in real life are all strong men with broad shoulders and thick waists. After all, drawing a bow is a strenuous job. The setting in games that only increases the agility of archers but not their strength is simply a fake thing made up by a novice who has no experience with cold weapons and relies on his personal imagination.
The archers stood in an open space more than ten meters away from the wooden fence, drew their bows and shot madly over the wall at an average rate of one arrow every three to five seconds.
The goblins who were in the first row and had failed to kill the goblins who had rushed into the village were caught off guard by this wave of arrows. They screamed and waved their weapons around, trying to deflect the arrows shot from the village.
Because the goblins charged in a swarm without shields and in the crowded situation, they had no time to dodge, and the first wave of arrows did injure quite a few goblins.
Some of the unlucky ones were shot in the fatal spot and fell to the ground on the spot.
Tarka stood in front of the archers, holding the long sword tightly in his right hand and pointing forward: "Shield warriors and spearmen, guard the front of the wooden fence to prevent the enemy from climbing over the fence!"
A small part of the wooden fence was buried in the ground, as thick as an adult's thigh, making it almost impossible for the goblins to knock it over.
It will take some time to cut down the trees.
The only conventional method is to climb over from the top.
However, the top of the wooden fence was specially sharpened to prevent the enemy from climbing over the wall.
But the goblins didn't care about these at all. When they found that their attack on the city gate had failed and they could not destroy the wooden fence in a short time, they immediately formed a human ladder to climb the wooden fence, intending to enter Shumu Village by climbing over it.
A small number of the goblins who tried to climb the wall had their stomachs pierced by the sharp tips of the wooden fence and hung miserably on it, as if they had become one with the fence.
The remaining goblins used their companions' bodies as meat cushions without fear of life or death, their bodies stained with their companions' smelly blood, and jumped into Shuki Village with strange cries.
However, only a few goblins were able to climb into the village fence, and as soon as they jumped off the wooden fence, they were attacked by the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time below.
Or the shield warriors would use their shields to push the goblin against the wall and then stab it to death with their swords, or three or two spearmen would attack at the same time and pierce the body of the goblin that had jumped over the wooden fence...
Although the goblins have a large number of people, the geographical advantage is ultimately in favor of the defenders of Shuki Village.
The close combat was extremely bloody, and the goblins' blood soon dyed the land beside the wooden fence red.
"Warriors, fight bravely! Everyone will be rewarded for defending our homeland. After this battle, I will give everyone five Silver Wolves! Killing a green-skinned dwarf will give you two extra Silver Wolves, no upper limit!"
Tarka boosted morale in the simplest and most brutal way.
As the saying goes, there is always a brave man under a big reward. When the soldiers heard that they could make extra money by killing monsters, they shouted excitedly.
The goblin killing was a bit more brutal than at the beginning.
"Kill! For the Lord Knight!!"
"For Silver Wolf!"
"Defend your home!"
"Humph, is that all you can do? You don't know your own limits."
Seeing that the goblins' attack was contained, just when Tarka thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, a middle-aged man dressed as a farmer ran up to Tarka, panting.
Without even taking a breath, he supported his waist with one hand and his knees with the other, and said breathlessly: "Lord Tarka! Those green-skinned monsters are attacking the east entrance of the village... They..."
Tarka was startled and asked hurriedly, "What happened to them? Did they get in?"
"No... they didn't break in. You told us to close all the gates. The young and strong men in the village have also organized a reserve team, and they are defending under the command of several team leaders..." The middle-aged farmer took a breath and continued, "But we don't have enough weapons. Many people are using farm tools, and there are so many of those little monsters. I'm afraid we won't be able to stop them after a while..."
Talka said in a deep voice: "Where is Fagalek?"
"Lord Fagalek left the village not long ago. He heard that a group of 20 to 30 mercenaries passed by the village just now. They must have gone to look for them."
Talka thought that his companion was always smart and must have gone after the mercenary group just to be on the safe side after learning that the logging camp had been attacked.
If it were any other time, Tarka would just think that his colleague was too sensitive, but now... he just wanted to say, well done.
"Notify everyone to defend hard, reinforcements will be here soon!"
When Talka thought of the members of the mercenary group he had seen from afar before, he felt that the village was safe.
Fortunately, I didn't make things difficult for the mercenary group when they came to the village to buy things from the traveling merchants, otherwise... it would have been really embarrassing.
