The people sent by Bald Ruda had already spread the news to the Elvin Defense Line.
Princess Isabella, who hurried to Hutton Mare, also successfully found the imperial spy and used special channels to quickly spread the news that the Knights team was trapped.
At this time, the Tiger Legion brigade stationed at the Erwin line of defense had sent a team of 500 people, led by captain Kargas himself, to the southern valley to rescue the Knights squad and destroy the so-called bandit group.
On the southern side of the valley, under Ying Tianyi's order, a simple village gate was built at the mouth of the originally empty valley, and he took the time to make many arrows, collect a lot of gravel, and wait for the emperor to attack.
*The team arrives.
On the afternoon of the third day, five hundred members of the Tiger Legion finally arrived in front of the southern valley.
Captain Kargas looked around, observing the terrain here, and then curled his lips and chuckled disdainfully.
A valley completely surrounded by low cliffs. There is only a not-so-wide entrance on the front and a simple village gate. It seems that the strength of this bandit group is not very good!
There were only three squadron leaders who came with Kargas, and their strength had all reached the peak of intermediate swordsmen.
One of them suggested to Kargas: "The terrain here is convenient for setting up an ambush. Should we sweep the surroundings first and then attack the valley?"
As a captain, Kargas was at least a high-level swordsman. However, he did not arrogantly order a strong attack. Instead, he listened to the advice of his subordinates, nodded cautiously and said: "That's fine! You divide two people, and each leads his own soldiers.
Clean up both sides and explore the situation in the valley. I will go to the gate of the village to persuade them to surrender. If you don't listen, I will attack by force after nightfall!"
"Yes!" The three squadron leaders immediately took the order and divided the 500-man team into three groups. Two groups went to sweep the surrounding cliffs to eliminate the threat of ambush, while the other group followed Kargas to the gate of the village.
Kargas, who was tall and powerful, naturally had a loud voice. He walked alone to the gate of the village carrying a giant sword with both hands and shouted loudly: "The bandits inside, listen, I am Kargas, the captain of the Imperial Tiger Corps.
You are limited to hand over the Knights’ officers within one hour and open the gate of the village to surrender, otherwise you will not blame me for being rude!”
Kargas responded with a few arrows shot sparsely from the gate of the village. It was obvious that the people inside were not prepared to surrender at all.
Kargas casually deflected the arrow, narrowed his eyes, snorted coldly, and stepped back.
According to the art of war, troops coming from afar should set up camp and rest for a while before taking action. They must not engage in an immediate battle with an enemy who is waiting for work.
However, there is still a trapped Knights team in the valley. They are in desperate need of rescue. The strength of the "robber group" seems to be too weak. Even the gate of the village is in tatters. So after Kargas returned, he immediately ordered the soldiers
Rest where you are and launch your attack after nightfall.
When the troops cleaning up the surrounding cliffs returned, Kargas had no worries.
Those stupid robbers, occupying such a favorable terrain, did not ambush on the cliff, but gathered in the valley to wait for death. Wasn't this God's blessing? Kargas would have made another contribution this time! If he hadn't left in a hurry this time
, without any long-range weapons such as bows and arrows, Kargas wanted to set an ambush instead...
In the valley, Ying Tianyi and the three mutant lords had a smile on their lips after listening to their subordinates' reports.
The rescue force only has 500 people, and most of them are swordsmen and spearmen. The leader is Captain Kargas, whom Ying Tianyi knows. This time there is something good to see.
In a hidden cave not far outside the valley, Natalia and nine other girls were hiding here with the beast trainer Galois and a large group of mutated flame cat demons.
Natalia, wearing white clothes and a red scarf, disguised as a member of the violent search team, whispered to Galois: "Remember, you must wait until all the imperial troops enter the valley before ordering your kittens to capture the valley entrance. You must not
Let one person go!"
"Yes, sir!" Galois accepted the order respectfully, not daring to show any disrespect to Natalia, a girl who was only twelve years old...
Night fell quickly, and Kargas saw that his soldiers had recovered a lot of strength, and immediately ordered a strong attack.
He doesn't want to wait, and he can't afford to wait. If he only eliminates the bandits but fails to rescue the Knights team, then his achievements will be greatly reduced, and it may even affect his future promotion. But if everything goes well, maybe he
Relying on this achievement, as well as the previous achievement of completely occupying the Erwin Defense Line, we can take a big step forward.
Yes, Kargas is a fan of officials and is very obsessed with power and status. This is why Ying Tian felt more relieved after learning that he came in person.
The situation was as expected by Ying Tianyi. Although Kargas was cautious, he obviously lacked patience. He was eager to achieve success and launched a strong attack that night.
Facing the high-level swordsman Kargas, the simple village gate was not even qualified to block it, so it was chopped down by his sword.
Then Kargas took the lead, killed two fanatic believers guarding the gate, and rushed into the valley with his soldiers.
In the valley, before Ying Tianyi arrived, there were no buildings at all. There was only a camp blocking the cave in the back. But now, there are many more wooden houses. In the opinion of Kargas and others, they should be members of the bandit group.
Member’s residence.
When the army rushed into the valley, the fanatical believers of the violent search group immediately retreated according to the order and retreated to the camp at the back, and then...
"Fire the arrow!"
The magic mutant Huo Yan received Ying Tianyi's signal and immediately waved his hand to give the order. At the same time, he also lit a few small fireballs in his hands and shot them downwards... at the wooden houses almost scattered throughout the valley in no order.
On the cliffs surrounding the valley, a large piece of gravel suddenly rolled down, not only injuring many Tiger Legion soldiers, but also exposing the small cave behind.
In the cave, several male mad believers are responsible for throwing stones, or setting up bows and arrows, while female mad believers are throwing fire bottles down, or helping to light the front ends of arrows, turning ordinary arrows into rockets.
For a time, the quiet valley became lively due to the intrusion of the rescue team. Rock rockets were flying in the sky, and wooden houses burned and collapsed one by one, completely disrupting the army's formation and injuring many soldiers.
When Captain Kargas saw this situation, he was stunned for a moment, and then became furious.
It turns out that the bandit group did not set up an ambush, but arranged the ambush location in the valley. They dug many small caves on the surrounding cliffs and attacked from a high position. They also set up traps in the valley and lit fires in an attempt to destroy their troops.
Cunning, so cunning!
"Retreat, retreat quickly!" Kargas made a prompt decision. Taking advantage of the fact that the casualties of the troops were not large, he immediately shouted an order: "Everyone, get out of the valley, quickly!"
It's a pity that they rushed too fast just now. The troops have completely entered the valley. It's a bit late to get out now.
"Meow……"
A large number of cat calls echoed at the entrance of the valley, and a group of mutated red-haired flaming cat monsters, driven by the beast trainer Galois, blocked the entrance of the valley gorgeously.
Among them were nine masked female mad believers, wielding daggers and standing in the rear. As long as any lucky soldiers broke through the cat demon formation, they would be mercilessly killed by them.
Seeing Captain Kargas also starting to rush back, Ying Tianyi was worried that Natalia and the others would not be able to resist, so he immediately ordered two mutant lords to stop him.
The fast-moving phantom mutant Oxer and the infinitely powerful strange mutant Bojis are both advanced combat professionals. Although they are no match for Kargas one on one, they are really not afraid of him in group fights.
A captain who wields a giant sword.
Oxer and Podgers led a group of warrior boxers who were good at close combat and rushed out, specializing in sniping and killing those powerful captain-level figures.
Ying Tianyi, who also wore white clothes and a red scarf, disguised as a violent hunting group fanatic, ordered the magic mutant Huo Yian to sit in the rear camp. He also rushed out with a group of fanatic warriors, looking for the weakest ordinary soldiers to perform operations.
