Chapter 638 Battle of Wind and Snow
Manda stood on the newly built tower and looked at the sky far away.
It was very clear, without clouds, and the junction of the sky and snow was clear.
"Are you sure there will be a blizzard today?" Manda looked back at Og.
Og wiped his nose and said, "The great prophet said that the wind and snow will come only at noon, and it is useless for you to stand here now."
Back at the wooden house, Manda counted the pearls he had coughed up in the past few days, a total of 72. The war was imminent, and the soldiers recited Mengda's name every day, and the output was quite gratifying.
But Manda was not in a hurry to convert them into original power. After the last pain, he felt a little too hasty. Every time he swallowed them in the future, he would definitely not exceed one hundred.
It was noon in a blink of an eye, and the wind was blowing. The cold wind mixed with snowflakes gradually changed. In less than a candle, the eyes were all silvery.
Beauing stood at the door and murmured, "The beasts of the tundra are coming, Harumas bless them, let these beasts bypass our tribe."
Comparing natural disasters to beasts is a common feature of primitive people. Manda feels it is necessary to do popular science:
"The changes in the weather have nothing to do with the beasts, when the cold and humid air meet together..."
Manda said a lot, and Beauyin seemed to understand and said, "Baikuga is right. The wind and snow did not come because of the beast. I am talking about the beast because of the wind and snow."
If that's the case, the difference will be huge.
But why do beasts come with the wind and snow? When encountering such a blizzard, shouldn’t beasts find a place to escape from disasters?
Beauing explained: "There are such winds and snowstorms every day in the tundra, but in the land of the tundra, such violent snowstorms are very rare. Such violent snowstorms will break through the boundaries of the tundra, and the beasts will no longer get lost and will attack the villages of the tundra."
Manda is interested in this: "Have your tribe been attacked by beasts?"
"Every tribe has been attacked by beasts. It is difficult to defeat beasts from the tundra. Only the bravest warriors dare to fight to the death. I am one of them."
Beauing pulled his shirt open and exposed the wound on his back: "When I was young, a two-headed bear broke into the tribe, and my mother hid in the cellar with my nine brothers, and only my father and I were fighting side by side. We cut his head with a hunting knife, stab his chest with a hunting fork, and burn his hair with fire. We fought with him for a whole night until we were exhausted, and then conquered him."
“What exactly do you mean by conquest?”
"Nu Nu!" Beauvern had no concealment.
"Why do you have to be a slave?"
This time Beauing looked bad. He tried to make an excuse for himself, but he did not have the courage to deceive Baikuga.
Finally he chose to tell the truth: "If you don't Nunu, we will be beaten to death by the bear."
"So that's it." Manda looked into the distance, thinking about where the logical problem of this passage lies.
After a long silence, Manda asked, "Who conquered whom?"
Beauvin smiled with emotion: "Who can tell what happened so many years have passed?"
"Take me to see the beasts in the tundra," Manda said solemnly, "see if I can conquer them."
...
General Gogorchi, the Bayer Kingdom, was drinking in a tent. He was the vanguard of General Romonlov, and led a thousand soldiers to directly attack the Beyin tribe.
Originally, there was only two days left, but the wind and snow suddenly arrived, so he was forced to stop and camp, which would take at least half a day depending on the situation. The country of Bayer was very scarce, and only one-way military ration was brought to war, and he never brought much military ration. The return military ration was robbed.
The soldiers may go hungry if they only need to be hungry for half a day, but no one knows when the wind and snow will stop. If it lasts for more than two days, he will be forced to retreat.
What should I do after retreating? No food or no food. He is very familiar with the rules of the Bayer people. The vanguard rushed forward and other troops robbed behind him. All the villages behind him must have been robbed.
If you can't get it, you can only ask Romonlov for it, but will he give it to it?
Maybe I can give you a few bites of leftover soup, but I don’t know how much ridicule and sarcasm he will be subject to during this period.
Damn Romonlov, why did I make me a pioneer! I never offended him!
He gave him two hundred gold coins in the New Year. Does he think it's too little?
After drinking a can of soju, Gogoc, who was irritated, was about to fall asleep when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside the tent.
He called the guards and asked, "Who is making noise?"
"Several military tents were overturned by the strong wind."
"Did they come out to fight on the first day? Have you ever seen the wind and snow? Let them set up their tents quietly, or they would sleep on the snow for me!"
Soon, it became quiet outside and Gogoc fell asleep wrapped in a blanket.
After sleeping for a while, the noise rang again. Gogocchi was furious. As soon as he opened the tent, he was hitting the panicked guard.
"General, there is an enemy raid!"
"Nonsense! Where did the enemy come from?" This is not in line with common sense at all. No one will send troops to fight in such bad weather.
The guards dared not defend themselves, but the sound of fighting gradually came.
The visibility in the wind and snow was very low, but the camp of one thousand people was not big. Gogic realized that the guards were not lying and quickly ordered the entire army to meet the enemy.
But this order is not so easy to execute. Gogorchi is a third-level believer of the god of war, Pallas (one of the second generation of Titans, the natal god of Encia, a member of the Claudesey family). With his strong body and unable to stand firm in the wind and snow, let alone ordinary soldiers, when they struggle to get out of the tent, the enemy has already appeared in sight.
They are very tall, at least two feet taller than ordinary people, and there are not many. They should be only one hundred people up and down. The speed of travel is not very fast, but the formation is very stable, and the wind and snow seem to have no interference with them.
Their weapons are pretty good, with wooden shields and long swords, but their suits are very thin and cannot even cover their bodies completely.
It’s understandable that there is no armor. After all, armor is too expensive, but why don’t they even have a thick set of battle suits? Aren’t they afraid of the cold?
Judging from the lines of their bodies, they seem to be... women?
Gogorchi had no time to think about it. He gathered about 300 people around him. While the enemy was still seventy or eighty steps away, he immediately ordered the arrow to be fired.
While the soldiers fired arrows, Gogau launched the third-level skill of the God of War and chased the chaos.
The chaotic technique seems ordinary, but it is extremely effective on the battlefield. This skill can dispel soldiers' fear and panic, allowing soldiers to accurately execute generals' orders in a calm and relaxed situation.
Because the skills are activated very secretly, it is difficult for the enemy to find the right time to interfere and destroy. Encia used this powerful skill to maintain the combat state of soldiers during hard battles.
After the first round of feather arrows, the enemy was not affected.
After the second round of feather arrows, the enemy was still moving forward.
After the third round of feather arrows, the enemy was within twenty steps, and Gogoc ordered the soldiers to line up their shields to prepare for the battle.
The soldiers quickly lined up in three rows. The first row of soldiers raised their shields, the second row pressed against the back of the first row of soldiers, and the third row of soldiers set up spears on the shoulders of the second row of soldiers.
The soldiers were very calm, but Gogoc was not so calm. Although the visibility was poor in the wind and snow, he was sure that many arrows hit the enemy.
But he did not see an enemy falling down. He saw a few feather arrows inserted into the body of an enemy, still maintaining his unchanged pace, following the army formation neatly.
They also raised the wooden shield, and the shields of the two armies collided together.
Gogoc ordered a stabbing, and the soldiers in the third row stabbed the spear.
Most of the spears pricked on the shield, and it felt like they were poking on a stone. The spear rod was bent and only a scratch was left on the shield surface.
Several spears also stabbed the enemy's body, but the spear tip only penetrated less than an inch. Under their flesh, there seemed to be bones as hard as shields.
The most terrifying thing is that they don’t know the pain. After being injured, their bodies have almost no reaction, and even their expressions have not changed.
Gogocchi took a breath: "This is a zombie, a giant's zombie."
The enemy did not launch a counterattack. They held their shields and kept rushing forward, allowing the Bayer spears to pierce their flesh again and again.
After a stalemate, the Bayers could not hold on anymore. The enemy was much taller than them. From top to bottom, they crushed the first row of soldiers holding shields.
Without the shield, the female warriors began to fight back.
They raised their long swords and slashed down together, with their movements neatly and consistently.
Under the vast snow, the Bayer blood splattered everywhere, forming a thin red mist.
The Bayer soldiers were no longer calm, and the third-level skill of the God of War failed because their general Gogoc had already escaped.
When the general fled, the soldiers naturally had no chance of resistance. They struggled to get up, turned around and ran wildly, and after not running a few steps, someone accidentally fell down, and the people behind were accidentally tripped again. A group of people rolled and crawled in the wind and snow, and seemed to move very quickly, but their actual efficiency was terrible.
The "girls" are taking neat steps, not rushing or scrutinizing. The tactics are very simple - keep moving forward, and the purpose is very clear - kill when you see someone.
Guater sat on a girl's shoulder, looking at the battle with a blank expression. The ten-hourglass in his hand was not halfway through, and the battle was over.
More than 300 corpses were lying on the ground, and more than 500 Bayer people knelt on the ground and begged for surrender. Less than 200 people fled with Gogau.
Guatel commanded the surrendered Bayers to build a simple altar and piled up all the bodies under the altar.
He prayed silently to Hephaestus, and after receiving the reply, he lit the pile of firewood under the body.
When the body was about to burn out, Guatel issued an order: "Half of the people stayed, and half of them were dedicated to the Vulcan."
The girls turned their faces neatly and looked at the wailing and screaming Baiers.
Guater looked at the sky and shouted loudly: "Hepaistos in the flames, please look here. Thank you for giving me this victory. This is my return gift to you!"
