The territory of the kobolds is still some distance away from Green Field Lake. At least Allen and the others traveled fifty or sixty miles to the southeast before they could get close to where the kobolds should be.
"Ten miles ahead is the territory of the kobolds."
Marching along without any disturbance, Jim, the scout under Regis, pointed to a direction and reported to Regis and the others.
"The valley we have chosen will definitely turn into a swamp when there is a heavy rain. Chief Allen, you must ask your people to avoid this area after the war."
Before the battle, Regis was still worried about Allen's group of stupid warriors, and once again warned that if their plan was to succeed, then if the bugbear key, which was the main combat force in the battle, went wrong, it would affect the entire army. A battle situation.
After Philip handed over all the weapons he had promised to Allen, Allen did not hesitate to keep these fine iron weapons secretly, but equipped them to his soldiers on the spot. The effect of replacing shotguns with cannons immediately made Green The combat effectiveness of the wild tribe has been improved to a new level, and it is no longer comparable to the bugbears who fought with simple weapons such as stone axes and wooden sticks before.
"Don't worry about this matter. I've warned them one by one. Don't worry about bad things happening. Captain Regis, please take action now. Maybe you can catch up with the heavy rain."
Allen said it beautifully, but he was actually very worried in his heart. He knew best what these idiots in the clan were like, but now that the arrow was on the string and had to be fired, he had to make things go smoothly even if he held on to death.
The distance between the kobolds and the Green Lake seems a bit far away, but in this world of strong physical strength, a mere sixty or seventy miles is only two magic hours for a warrior. Allen and the others dragged a convoy along the way and only spent 5 magic hours to get there. This meant that the threat of the kobolds to the Green Field Tribe was far greater than Allen had imagined before.
The bugbears were lying in ambush in the selected valley. The sky was getting darker and darker, and heavy rain could fall at any time. As Regis and the others left with the convoy, the valley suddenly became much cleaner, because after the bugbears marched, one by one Hiding lazily in the bushes of the valley, dozing languidly.
"Sleep, sleep, sleep. All I know about eating, drinking and sleeping every day is that I don't know how to do anything serious!!"
Without the outsiders, Allen's whole face was as gloomy as frost, and he kicked the bugbears with his feet, making them scream. In the past few days of spending time with humans, one thing that impressed Allen deeply was the extremely strong discipline and diligence of humans. In comparison, the bugbears were really lazy.
He had already begun to think in his mind about how to change these bad habits of the tribesmen and mobilize their enthusiasm.
"Don't let me be lazy. Today's battle is related to the future safety of our tribe. As long as everyone can win, I will reward each person with 5 pounds of food!!"
Of course, freezing three feet doesn't happen in a day, and changing the tribe's bad habits won't happen overnight. The top priority now is to do things well today and alleviate the threat of kobolds to their tribe.
"Bacon! Bacon! Bread! Bread!"
When each bugbear heard the word food, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he began to murmur.
"Shut up! If you want to eat delicious food, fight with all your strength later. Kill a dog head and add a piece of bacon."
"Oooo! Allen!"
Time passed slowly as Allen scolded and scolded the tribesmen, and heavy raindrops gradually began to fall under the dense clouds in the sky, which instantly turned into a waterfall and enveloped the land of the film.
The field of vision became blurred, but it did not prevent Allen from learning Regis and the others' warning in advance. The human scout named Jim dragged his tired pace, one foot deep and one shallow foot, towards Allen's location, panting heavily and reporting to Allen. : "Kobolds and kobolds are catching up. The captain asked me to report to you and get ready. There are more than 40 kobolds coming, including the kobolds we have seen before, but there are no kobolds."
"Everyone, get up, pick up your weapons, and get ready!!"
Allen signaled Jim to take shelter from the rain in the bushes and rest. He turned to issue a battle call to the tribesmen behind him. At the same time, he took out a two-handed sword that was as heavy as Regis and stared at it solemnly. In a white rainy day.
The vehicle made a creaking sound in the mud, which gradually became louder. This also meant that the distance between Regis and his bait was getting closer. Even Allen could hear the sounds of fighting coming from the front of the valley. , the sound of weapons clashing.
Allen was unmoved. The bugbear warrior behind him was breathing rapidly and had already entered a fighting state. However, he still managed to remain calm and waited for the clan leader's order. This shows that Allen's status in the hearts of the tribe has become more and more important these days. It's getting more stable.
Until under the blurry rain curtain, shadows passed through the valley floor and came to the slope where Allen and the others were. In just half a magic hour, the rain curtain turned the valley into a quagmire, making it difficult for the humans who desperately helped to pack the horses and drag the carriages. The caravan guys were having a hard time. Behind the caravan guys, Regis led 7 team members, together with the caravan's own somewhat capable guys, and slowly retreated in the direction of Allen and the others.
Human tactics opened the eyes of Allen, who had seen many straight-forward battles. It turned out that a war could still be played like this. Surrounding a mere third-level mire spell scroll, Regis and the others set up a complex and full-scale battle. Unexpected conspiracy, now it seems that there is no possibility of various accidents.
"coming!!"
From a distance, as soon as they entered the slope area, Regis began to send signals to Allen and the others. After receiving the signal, Allen immediately issued an order: "Kill!!!"
"kill!!!"
The bugbears jumped out of the bushes one after another and started to kill the kobold team in the valley. Regis, who had calmed down, didn't even have time to take a rest. When he turned around and looked back, an old sheepskin scroll was thrown out and dropped into the valley. Go to the valley where a large group of kobolds gather. After a violent wave of magic, in the valley that was already a swamp, the wet and soft soil turned into unstressed mud. The dog's head sunk into it with almost a calf, and it was visible to the naked eye. It slowly sank downwards, and the kobolds, who were so anxious and panicked by the sudden change, struggled repeatedly, but could not get out of the quagmire.
"drink!!"
I saw Regis, who was halfway up the hill, shouting loudly and striking hard with his sword. A pile of stones piled up into a hill beside him. After losing the restraints of ropes and wooden blocks, it rolled further and further under the attraction of gravity. Suddenly, pebbles the size of a human head flew into the head of the kobolds who could hardly move. After howling, many kobolds disappeared into the mire.
