Chapter 376 The barbarians are not scary, just afraid that the barbarians have culture!
The next morning, I left the Paso checkpoint early, and three hundred people marched and broke into the wilderness...
The monotonous sky, although the complexion is bleak, looks up at it, just like the soaring eagle dotted downwards, and its realm is extremely magnificent. When you look down, you can look into the distance, and the low mounds circling around are endless, as if they are still willing to stop until the end of the sky.
"It's so fast. I thought we had to rest for two days first and adapt. That's great... I just arrived last night and sent us out this morning. Do you expect us to die?" After making a stretching move, looking around, David curled his lips and said.
It's no wonder David was so malicious. As he said, they had just gotten up this morning and before they could walk around the level, they received the order to go to a high ground as quickly as possible, where a Bran heavy sword battalion was trapped.
"Haha, it may be of this, but it shouldn't be all." Frey smiled bitterly and then continued, "I went to see the marching map last night. As expected, our current location is just next to those hundreds of kilometers of irregular areas. However, the form here is indeed tense. The Northern Wilderness has already taken most of the initiative, and the signs of barbarian activities are becoming more and more rampant. I guess there should be big moves recently, and the level will not be kept for long."
He paused, "Besides, have the Bran soldiers sent out a lot this morning, haha, if they hadn't found the right man for a while, would you think they would be willing to let our gray-clothed army rescue?"
"Damn it, I really don't believe us." David hit his palm and waved his hand angrily, "Okay, why not just walk around here and say that we didn't find a place after we got back."
Luke, who was standing beside him, shook his head: "Forget it, I've come here so far, I've come here at least to see what the barbarian looks like."
"Luke's words make sense." Frehan nodded, "I always have to fight with the barbarians, so I feel it now. Well, the terror of the barbarians is not only reflected in their combat effectiveness, but their strength is definitely not as high as you. But what you need to pay attention to is their decisiveness in executing combat orders and their crazy state in real battle. Haha, ordinary barbarians have basically developed limbs and bad brains, but their horror lies in this... The quality of intelligence is sometimes just a commander."
When Tang En raised his eyebrows and nodded secretly. Although they had a good personal relationship with each other, the gray space was not Frey's team after all, so he couldn't say some of his words too thoroughly.
However, Tang En also understood that Frey was worried that they would underestimate the enemy and ended up in a passive dilemma. You should know that this is the battlefield, where strength is not the only criterion for judging survival. Sometimes, people with high strength will die faster, which is not a false statement, because the higher the strength, the more people like to change the situation with their own force. Although this is simple and direct, the result is often to attract more enemies, fall into a besieged state, and eventually die exhausted.
As for Frey's last sentence, it should be what he said. It is true that the gray space was joining the spear-breaking camp, but after all, it was Tang En's people. If there was any conflict, David and the others would definitely listen to him, not Frey's.
This is often the most deadly, because many facts have shown that soldiers only need orders and then execute them. As for tactics and other things, it is best to leave them to the commander. If there are smart people among the soldiers, they will question the tactics. You should know that thinking too much is one of the signs of smart people, and the result is that they are not decisive in execution. The consequences of this may not be serious in other places, but on the battlefield, it is likely to change the situation of the battle and affect the lives of hundreds of people in the team. Frey cannot ignore it.
After pondering for a moment, Tang En said seriously: "Brother Frey has been fighting on the battlefield for many years and has rich experience. If no special situation occurs, we will naturally listen to you."
This is not a discourse against one's will. Before finding Sethman's position, Tang En and the others could only stay in the spear-breaking camp. This is a battlefield, not a place to stroll around at will. Since you have to stay here, the command power must be handed over to Frey. People are self-aware. Tang En is a killer, not a general. He is good at controlling small scenes with absolute precision. If he commands the legion to make various tactical commands like this, he really knows nothing.
Frey felt relieved when he heard this. He knew that Tang En had understood what he meant, and then he was overjoyed. After all, if a team like Gray Space is on the side, both the success rate of the mission and the survival rate of the soldiers will undoubtedly be greatly improved. Just like now, there are members of the Gray Space who are scouting their way, and he felt an unprecedented sense of security when he was walking on the battlefield for the first time. As for that special reason, Frey could also think that this is the case with Tang En joked that he would come to the front line to kill someone he disliked. This does not conflict with their actions, so who obviously hasn't appeared yet.
He waved his hand and smiled, "Haha, it's just a few years of hang out and never died. The so-called rich experience is actually a matter of just a few battles."
"Over-humility is pride. I really can't tell that Brother Frey is such a person... Haha!" After making a joke, Tang En immediately changed the subject and asked, "What are our actions after arriving at the destination?"
"Uh, Don..." Shaking his head, Frey lost his chance to argue, and said with a wry smile, "The first thing we have to do is observe. If we get there and find that the battle is over, or there are many barbarians, we will return the same way. Of course, if we happen to encounter a scarred barbarian, we still have to pick up this cheap one. Well, if the group of Bran soldiers are alive, then we will help save them and make a good relationship... In short, our principle is that we can save them, but we cannot put ourselves in."
Tang En nodded and was about to answer, but someone took it first, "It's such a scam... It turns out that time can really change people." Turning back, the thin monkey behind him looked sighing, "I didn't expect that for the sake of friendly forces, I could kill Captain Frey, who was three in and three out, and now I have become such a person."
"Damn it! It's true that you're going to join forces to make fun of me today." Frey's face turned dark, and he couldn't help but swear. Then he rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat someone. Tang En couldn't move and could not beat him, but it was still okay to deal with the thin monkey.
"Oh, no, this is to kill someone to silence him. Brother Tang En, for the sake of his life and death, come and get your brother..."
"Are you looking for death... Hum?"
At this moment, Frey suddenly turned his head and looked at the two people running down from the mound a hundred meters ahead. They were their scouts, and the people in the gray space took the initiative.
The right hand was raised, "Stop!"
The team had just stopped on the side of the road, and the two had already rushed to the front. They were members of the second phase of the gray space, and were subordinates of Mi Xiu. After they came over, they did not dare to delay and walked straight towards Tang En, but after seeing Tang En's gesture, they turned to Frey.
"Mr. Frey, the destination of the military order is ahead, and the two sides are currently fighting."
"Okay!" Frey nodded to understand, and then said to Tang En, "Go and have a look?" This is considered to be a reward. Tang En's gesture just now Frey saw it, but even without this, with the friendship between the two, Frey would not be able to neglect Tang En.
Tang En shrugged, and naturally agreed without any worries.
Then Tang En took David, Mithur, Luke, Frey, and other old brothers along the slope to climb to the top of the mound. At this time, he could vaguely hear the sound of fighting and prostrated his head...
There is a distance of about 200 meters in front of it, and there is the tallest hill here. Of course, this towering is relative to the low mounds around it. The slopes on both sides of the hill are slightly slower and steeper on both sides. On the slightly slower slope, the most simple fortifications have been built with logs and ditches. Soldiers wearing Bran armor relied on this fortification to fight fiercely with the attackers.
As for the attacker, it was naturally the Northern Wilderness Barbarians. This was the first time Tang En and the others saw a real ordinary barbarian soldier. The situation of the Dark Snake Guard was a bit special and did not have a representative surname.
The simple animal skin covered the majestic body, and some of them were not covered, but their black hair was very long, forming a second warmth layer like animals. The weapons in their hands were varied, huge battle knives, thick iron rods, etc. The only thing in common is that they were all big enough and were swayed incredible momentum. Although the distance was a bit far away, because of the wind, you could hear the roar of those barbarians like giant beasts when attacking, which was quite insidious.
The current situation can be said to be very unfavorable to Bran's side. Although he has a condescending position and has simple fortifications, the barbarians' attack power is amazing. In the fight alone, Bran's soldiers could hardly resist a few strokes. Only by siege by multiple people can they force the other side to retreat.
However, this situation obviously cannot last long. The troops of the heavy sword battalion mentioned in the intelligence have now been more than half of the casualties, only about 150 people can fight, and most of them are injured. Although the barbarian attackers only have fifty or sixty people, they have the advantage in the scene, defeating Bran's soldiers step by step. If these soldiers retreat about twenty meters and reach the top of the hill, the battle will be over.
"Tsk tsk, this is an encounter. It seems that our friendly forces are not lucky." After smacking their lips, the thin monkey said gloatingly.
They are all veterans on the battlefield. After a little observation, you can conclude that the Bran heavy sword camp accidentally encountered this group of barbarians and could not get rid of them. They could only choose to stick here and wait for help.
"Look there!" Luke suddenly pointed to the depression below the hill slope.
Everyone turned their eyes and couldn't help but take a deep breath. There were about a hundred barbarians guarding there, some bandaging their wounds, and the rest looked up at the fierce battle on the hills.
"Is this going to wipe out these Bran soldiers at the lowest cost?" Another old brother of Frey, named Zhugan, said in surprise after seeing it, then scratched his head, "Cao, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, these barbarians are getting bigger and bigger, and they all know how to use a trick!"
The situation is obvious, the slope is so large, fifty or sixty barbarians are enough to perform, and no matter how many people are, it doesn’t make much sense. So these barbarians adopted rotation system to attack the high ground and minimize casualties. This is just as the saying goes, barbarians should not be scary, they are afraid that barbarians are educated.
"How is it, Brother Frey, should you take action?" David turned his head and asked. The situation is very unclear. As long as they wait for a while, these Bran soldiers will definitely be dead.
"One hundred and fifty barbarians..." murmured, and after a moment of contemplation, Frey decisively pounded his palm, "Damn it, I've done it!"
