After arranging the mission, Lawrence immediately pulled out his pistol from his waist and walked out of the fortress. Then he led his more than fifty guardsmen into the first-line position. When they entered the first-line position, they were in the most dangerous situation.
When I entered the trench, I found that a large-scale hand-to-hand combat had already begun, and the entire front of the position was in a huddle.
Of course, Lawrence and the others still have the upper hand in the hand-to-hand combat. Because just when the group of sahuagin were about to rush into the fortifications, the reserve team composed of tauren rushed out to stop them and started fighting. At the same time, they started fighting.
, those machine guns and artillery also fired extended shots to block the sahuagins behind who wanted to come up for reinforcements.
In the battle, compared with the group of sahuagins who only have seaweed and big shells for protection, the survivability of these heavily armed tauren on the battlefield is much stronger. For example, the tridents in the hands of the sahuagins are difficult to attack.
The tauren wrapped in armor caused much damage, but the sahuagin's defense woven from seaweed and the shields made of large shells were basically unable to stop the various heavy weapons made of fine steel in the hands of the tauren.
Although the huge size and strong body that the sahuagin are proud of do have a huge advantage over humans, the tauren are no worse than them in this regard. Therefore, in such a face-to-face fight, with
The tauren with more complete equipment naturally have the upper hand.
With Lawrence and the others, the scale of joining the battlefield quickly tilted. After a short and bloody battle, Lawrence and the others successfully defeated the group of sahuagin troops that rushed into the fire range of their own position. Only one
Several sahuagins managed to escape by rolling down the hillside.
The number of monsters that could break through the fire net in other areas was much less than the monsters here, so they were driven out of their positions one after another under the counterattack of Saifeir with another part of the reserve team. And in this attack
After the failure, the sahuagin quickly retreated from their position on the hillside.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the elite Skaven Rangers in Lawrence's army first rushed out of their position and pursued them, followed by row after row of soldiers with bayonets ready. This chase them all the way.
The pursuit from the position to the edge of the jungle not far from the coastline stopped. In the end, less than 200 murlocs successfully escaped back to the sea.
"Something is not right." After everyone finished the battle and returned to their positions to discuss it, Lawrence discovered that there was something abnormal about tonight's battle. "If there were still those two during the last attack,
If the giant sea beasts bring enough threats to the shore, then what is the purpose of their attack today?"
"It feels like they are here to die." Nora, who had been sitting at the communication station at the highest point of the peninsula as a general reserve team, also flew down from the mountain and said, "Although it looks like this kind of pure sahuagin
The army looks stronger than the mixed army last time, but in fact, without mid-to-high-level extraordinary beings and large sea beasts, this kind of attack actually doesn't make much sense, so this situation seems a bit strange."
Just as they were talking, the sound of gunfire from the direction of the main island also stopped. The entire island returned to silence again. Except for the faint smell of gunpowder smoke blown by the sea breeze, everything seemed as if no war had broken out. Tonight's
This battle ended in an anticlimactic manner.
"Your Excellency, I seem to have discovered something wrong." At this moment, an officer who had just run down to clean the battlefield suddenly ran over and said, "Except for the commando that just approached, these murlocs are made up of pure warriors.
At least half of the remaining murlocs are just sahuagin civilians."
"Civilian?" Lawrence frowned, and Nora, who was better at action, flew out directly. A minute or so later, Nora dragged two corpses with silk thread and flew over. "What the priest said is right, at least
Half of the sahuagin attacking on our side are just civilians."
Sure enough, under the light of the fortress, Lawrence found that the two sahuagin corpses that Nora threw at his feet were much smaller than the ones he had seen before, and the muscles on their bodies also appeared to be smaller than before.
Those real warriors are weaker. Overall, they are obviously smaller than the real sahuagin warriors.
Sahuagin, a slightly neurotic race like goblins, can be regarded as a race where all people are soldiers, and as long as an adult sahuagin can fight to a draw with ordinary human warriors in face-to-face combat, this does not mean that
Each of them is good enough to be a warrior. At least on such a real battlefield, these sahuagin civilians can easily lose morale quickly and flee due to certain blows, just like just now.
"This is not normal," said Saifer, who was educated as a formal warrior. "Although the sahuagin society does not pay much attention to the living conditions of civilians, they rarely use civilians of their own race as cannon fodder. Normally,
These sahuagin civilians will only carry the loot or support them when the war is about to end."
After confirming that the sahuagin sent civilians to the battlefield, Lawrence and the others immediately passed this information to the general headquarters in the main city through the telegraph station. Shortly after the information was uploaded, they received the message passed by the headquarters.
A series of emergency notifications.
"The sahuagin attacks in all locations are the same this time." Lawrence took the telegram as soon as the translator finished translating the telegram, and then told everyone present the contents of the telegram.
"The headquarters asked us if we had any special discoveries or meaningful conjectures."
"No." "I don't understand what happened." After hearing Lawrence read out what was on the telegram, everyone present shook their heads gently and said they didn't quite understand what was going on here.
What? After all, everyone just saw a group of Sahuagin civilians now, and you can't guess anything based on this alone.
After everyone dispersed, Nora and Lawrence said hello to Sephiel. Then the little doll carried Lawrence in the astral plane as before and flew to the depths of the sea. After confirming that they had avoided
After the sahuagin closely guarded the sea area, the little doll suddenly plunged into the sea, and then quickly swam towards the sahuagin settlement area.
The little puppet chose a sea area with dense reefs this time, because there are so many reefs here and because of the offshore tide, these reefs have extremely sharp edges in the long-term collision. In addition, the topography makes the currents extremely complex.
.So even the sahuagin people don’t want to get close to this place which is very close to their settlement area.
Moreover, the sahuagins feel that this place is very close to the camp, so even if someone comes to investigate, it is impossible to escape their sense of smell and the warning magic deployed by the priests. Not to mention that for those stupid land people, they can't escape at all.
It is impossible to penetrate the complex local currents and attack your own camp.
But for Nora, this is not a problem at all. She constructed the body of the creature to directly disable the sense of smell in the water and the detection magic of the priests that people are proud of, and released a lot of silk threads to be sent out for perception.
After being exposed to the external environment, she can shuttle through this reef as flexibly as the most flexible fish.
So it only took more than ten minutes for Nora to cross this complicated reef and enter the sahuagin camp. After simply bypassing two patrols, the little doll quickly swam to a small hillside.
Then he looked at the core camp of the Sahuagin people not far away among the aquatic plants.
