There is a dense forest a hundred miles away from the barony, called the Forest of Sin. As the name suggests, this forest is full of sin and darkness.
In this forest, a large number of subhuman races live here, including ogres, goblins, kobolds, gnolls and even legendary mountain giants.
These races are cruel by nature, and they do all kinds of evil, including burning, killing, looting, and destruction. What's more important, these races are cannibals.
In the early autumn of every year, these sub-human races would come out of the Forest of Sin and go to the surrounding human territories to plunder. At this time, the surrounding human lords would be terrified and suffer from headaches.
In this remote place in the far north of the kingdom, there are no strong people at all, and the population is even pitifully small. Faced with a large group of ferocious and warlike sub-human races, humans have no power to resist and can only let them plunder and kill.
On this day, a large group of sub-human races once again walked out of the Forest of Sin and began their evil plundering journey. A large number of ogres, goblins, kobolds and jackals picked up crude weapons and rushed toward them with strange screams.
The surrounding human territories are ready to be plundered.
Facing the ferocious demihuman army, the surrounding territories were defeated one after another. The only defensive force was no match at all. In just half a day, they lost all their casualties and fled, leaving behind a large number of crops to be harvested and defenseless old people.
With women and children.
The ferocious laughter of the ogres echoed over the human territory, and the pitiful wails of women and children sounded from time to time. Many babies were killed, their hearts cut out and eaten, and a large number of women were defiled and died of humiliation.
Cruel atrocities are being carried out, and the hell-like scenes make people shiver all over after watching them, and they will wake up from nightmares most of the night.
On this day, Ji Yi was thinking about the future development of the territory, when a guard ran in and reported the news to him.
After hearing the news, Lin Yi was immediately furious. Even if he had to send troops to conquer these ogres and other races, in his opinion, these evil races should not live in this world at all.
"Boy, don't be impulsive. With the strength of your current territory, you may be able to survive passive defense, but if you take the initiative, you are no match for those subhuman coalition forces!" At this moment, the young man in white suddenly spoke up to stop Lin.
Yi’s approach.
You must know that the combat power of these sub-human races is very powerful compared to humans. Putting aside the goblins with low combat power, even the worst kobolds have combat power comparable to that of elite soldiers, let alone powerful ones.
Gnolls and terrifying ogres.
An adult jackal can easily kill ten human light infantry, and an ogre can easily kill a hundred human troops.
Although after three months of development, the strength of the territory has undergone earth-shaking changes. Many young people have the strength of rank warriors, but after all, the number is still too small. Facing thousands of sub-human armies, there is no doubt that they can resist them head-on.
It's a stupid decision.
After all, the total number of citizens in the territory so far is only more than 6,000, and the number of young and middle-aged people is only more than 4,000.
Moreover, the serious lack of weapons also limits the territory's combat effectiveness, making it impossible to launch a large-scale war, let alone take the initiative to fight against the demihuman army.
"I order everyone to prepare for the coming war. Everyone, including the elderly and children, must harvest crops as soon as possible without worrying about losing all the harvested food. In addition, I order the bearded man and his apprentices to make arrows with all their strength. In three days,
You must make ten thousand arrows for me!"
A determined look flashed in his eyes. Now that the matter has come to this, Ji Yi can only prepare for the coming war and order everyone in the baron to prepare for the war with all their strength. Everything is tilting towards the war.
This order was known to the people in the territory as soon as it was issued. Everyone worked hard to prepare for it. The soldiers wiped their weapons, the blacksmith shop made the sound of tinkling from time to time, and the elderly, women and children were in the city.
Working hard outside to harvest the ripe crops.
No one was afraid, everyone was extremely excited. Everyone was willing to sacrifice everything for the glory of God. Time passed slowly in the busyness of everyone. Three days later, the crops outside the city were all harvested due to everyone's efforts. Ten thousand people were harvested.
The arrows have also been made, and the four thousand-man brigades are ready for the coming war. Everything is ready and only the east wind is needed.
Finally the war came, with smoke and dust billowing from the distance under the setting sun. The ground seemed to be shaking. Many soldiers on the simple city walls in the territory looked nervously at the approaching demihuman army, with both fear and excitement in their eyes.
look.
A quarter of an hour later, the dark army arrived two hundred meters away from the city wall. Standing at the front was a large group of two-meter-tall, ferocious-looking ogres, followed by a large group of countless goblins holding wooden weapons.
He was provocatively baring his teeth and claws.
Behind the goblins are a large coalition of kobolds and jackals. In ancient legends, kobolds and jackals were actually the same race a long time ago, but they later changed due to different living environments.
, evolved into today's kobolds and jackals.
However, both jackals and kobolds deny this statement. If anyone dares to talk about it in front of them, it will definitely arouse their endless anger and will be regarded as a lifelong enemy.
A tense atmosphere enveloped the entire barony, and the clouds in the sky were dispersed by the powerful momentum. The ferocious roars of the ogres continued to sound, making many people in the baron turn pale after hearing the threat of death.
Everyone in front of me was still scared.
"Humans, please come out and surrender, otherwise when we enter the city, no one will be left alive. If you put down your weapons and surrender now, we might even let you live!" At this moment, a short man with a wretched face appeared.
The goblin came out and shouted loudly.
Phew! A sharp sound broke through the air, and the bright stream of light burst out with brilliant brilliance. The next moment, the body of the goblin who had shouted before suddenly exploded into a blood mist that filled the sky, but was shot by Ji Yi with an arrow.
.
"Damn, damn humans, brothers, kill me, kill all these damn humans and leave no one alive!" Seeing this, the leader, a burly ogre with a ferocious face, was furious, and his eyes were filled with anger.
The flash of cold light frightened the order to massacre the city.
"Kill, kill these damn humans, and steal their food and wealth!" After hearing the roar of the ogre leader, many subhumans shouted and rushed towards the city wall.
Phew! Phew! Phew! Hundreds of arrows blocked the sunlight in the sky and headed towards the crowd of people. The sound of popping popping kept coming, but a demi-human was pierced by the arrow.
Body.
In one round of volley, hundreds of goblins were shot to death by random arrows, and more than a dozen ogres were severely injured. However, these casualties were not painful to the demihuman army, but instead aroused their ferocity.
Sex, causing him to become mad and rush towards the city wall with blood-red eyes.
"Kill, great warriors of God, kill all these damn heretics for the glory of my God. My God will definitely give us strength. My God is watching us in the Kingdom of God!" Before everyone could shoot the third shot.
After two waves of arrows, the ogre army headed by them arrived under the city wall.
In desperation, many soldiers had to give up their plans to continue shooting, and picked up the long swords beside them to prepare for close combat with the ogres.
Dark clouds appeared in the sky at some point, and an extremely depressing atmosphere enveloped the land and sky within a kilometer radius. A tragic war was about to break out.
