Chapter 749: Interception
Chapter 758 Interception
"The human kingdom's army has set out!" The falconer in the rear received the information from the falconer in the front. He fed the falconer a dried fish and then let him fly. Then he tied the information to his falconer's legs and let him fly.
In this way, when the iron hoof of the goblin knight awakened the spies along the way, the news of the kingdom's march into the Lagran Plain could no longer be concealed, and the falcons rushed towards the Rune area like raindrops.
...
"Hoohoo~ What do those Western humans want to do? Do they think they can be our enemies?" A chariot chieftain stood up.
"Those bastards dared to march towards us? It seems that the blood of the King of Gondor did not make them honest!" An East Yi tribe leader threw his wine glass angrily.
"If they choose war, then let them have war! May the devil bless us!" As Sauron's loyal servants, the East Yi chariot people have always been the vanguard of Sauron's balancing the North, and they have been present in all the Northern Wars! The powerful charioteers even made the King of Gondor bleed on the battlefield! The warm Rhun region and the abundant water resources in the Rhun Inland Sea make the Rhun region very suitable for human reproduction. There are more than millions of East Yi people scattered in the form of tribes on this land.
It is hard to imagine how the coalition forces won in the original work! The troops that the East Yi charioteers can mobilize for war will definitely make everyone shudder! In the original work, this brave and warlike Eastern human army was defeated in the lonely mountain where only dwarves and human remnants were left... It can be said to be the pinnacle of realistic magic realism! It is a complete plot kill! Or to put it bluntly, the War of the Rings started with all kinds of plot kills, and Sauron lost because of the old man who didn't let him win!
Roland naturally didn't know that when they were still a long way from Lagran City, the charioteers in the Rune area had already received the news from the trained eagles. Shocked by the existence of the dragon knights, the trained eagles did not dare to approach Roland's central camp for reconnaissance, but seeing that there was indeed no problem with the goblin knights' vanguard, when the torrent of thousands of goblin knights ran across the plains, the tense nerves of the Dongyi people finally broke!
When the news reached the Dongyi Tribal Alliance, it had already become a war of the Western Human Kingdom! Tens of thousands of elite troops were approaching Rune! The wrong estimate made all the Dongyi lords uneasy. They quickly summoned their tribesmen to dispatch troops, and finally successfully assembled a cavalry and infantry army of 100,000 people in half a month! Although half of them were auxiliary soldiers with worrying combat effectiveness, they still had simple equipment, at least minced meat and stuffing lines were enough!
The Dongyi here were terrified and gathered soldiers to prepare to fight Roland's army, while Roland was marching every day to catch up with the Goblin Knights. Roland, who listened to Adolf Heinrich's words, naturally would not treat the Goblin Knights as cannon fodder, so it was inevitable to plunder for them from behind!
"At our current speed, we should be able to catch up with the Goblin Knights when the war starts!" Kaslo reported the news he saw in the air to Roland.
"In addition, Lord Alistar asked me to tell you that the Goblin Knights will not let you down! We will stubbornly resist anyone who wants to destroy the peace of the kingdom!" Kaslo rubbed his tired eyes after flying back for two days. Although Roland did not intend to recall the Goblin Knights who had been discovered, Roland still had to communicate with them, so Roland sent Kaslo to pay daily attention to his isolated army outside.
"I hope they can be safe!" Roland didn't expect the Goblin Knights to kill all around. He just hoped that the Goblin Knights could delay the main force to join the war! Because now the army is most likely not facing the hastily assembled soldiers of the Dongyi, but the elite troops they have assembled!
In fact, Roland and his team guessed right! The 100,000 Dongyi army is the "highest courtesy" given to Roland by the Chariot People. Of course, this surprise is still waiting for him to "unpack"...
...
"Chief! Your Highness's order..." A Goblin Centurion came over and whispered to Alistar.
"What order? I didn't receive it! The Goblin Knights will use blood and military exploits to show their loyalty to the empire! Long live the empire!" Alistar shouted slogans as if he was brainwashed. The smart Alistar had already inquired about what the city of Lagran meant to the kingdom, no, the empire! You must know that the current Kingdom of Lagran has no capital! The city of Jiliu is just a fulcrum in the north to exercise its function as the center of the north! So it is not the capital of the country, and it is barely a secondary capital.
"But His Highness said that we should not fight those barbarians head-on..." Another centurion also murmured in a low voice.
"His Highness said so, but of course we can't let those barbarians set foot on the land of the empire at will! That is the face of the king! How can we discredit our benefactor?" Alistar said unhappily.
"Hit them! Hit them hard! These wandering ghosts, the wild goblins will nail the coffins for them with their own hands!" Alistar looked at the chariot people on the other side of the Rapid River and waved his hands fiercely to vent.
Roland's original intention was to let Alistar lead the troops to engage in a tug-of-war with those chariot people, but Alistar also had his own considerations. As a vassal of the kingdom, the goblin knight naturally had to show his value and loyalty! What else can better show your value than regaining lost territory and bloodbathing the enemy?
Between restraining the enemy and attacking the enemy, Alistar decisively chose the plan of restraining and attacking the enemy lineup.
"They seem to be crossing the river!" Alistar stretched out his hand and looked at the awning.
"It's time to test your fighting power!" Alistar pulled out the javelin on his back, and after weighing the short and sharp short spear for a few times, he made a throwing gesture with satisfaction.
"Children! It's time to give our guests from afar a bath! I hope they have enough blood!" Alistar stood quietly by the river, holding the short spear and aiming at the chariot people on the other side who were still preparing rafts and rafts.
"Prepare to throw the javelin!" Alistar ordered. As a weak goblin lineage, the strength of the wild goblin is already the ceiling of the goblin. In order to strengthen their mid-range combat capabilities, Roland thoughtfully equipped them with javelin. Now Alistar is organizing his own tribesmen to prepare to use javelin to attack them halfway across the river!
"Splash!" Under Alistar's surprised gaze, a boat filled with soldiers capsized in the rushing river!
