Chapter two hundred and forty first victory is like defeat
"Stop, who are you?"
This patrol team from Xiaoshi Village has about thirty people, three times as many as Tal and others. Of course, this numerical advantage is like a joke in the face of the huge power gap, but this group of more than thirty farmers
However, the soldier patrol caused great trouble to Tal.
Except for the leader, these patrols were all uniformly armored. After the leader finished speaking, he held the swords, guns and weapons in his hands warily and stared at Tarr and the orcs, and even formed a faint formation to semi-surround Tarr and the others.
in,
Tal actually saw a hint of brilliance in their eyes. If it weren't for the fact that the weapons and equipment looked like a mixed bag, Tal would even think that this team was some kind of human elite.
"We are timber merchants who came from Tiemulin. This time we came from Piaoxue City to do business."
Tal did not draw his weapon at the first moment, but quickly pressed down on his sister Hypatia's restless hand. Tal knew exactly what he was going to do now. It was easy to kill this human patrol, which consisted of more than ten people.
Among the half-orcs in the army, the weakest half-orc is also a warrior-level half-orc, not to mention there are two royal warriors, he and Hypatia. Not to mention a patrol of more than 30 people, there are only 500 people in one city.
The human army, Tarr, also had almost no pressure.
But they are here for reconnaissance, and even if they are to be exposed, it is not now. They are fighting in the hinterland of humanity before everything is clear. So what is the point of him coming here to conduct reconnaissance?
Now that the entire patrol is being slaughtered, they are openly telling humans that something is going on here.
"Oh, wood merchants from Piaoxue City? Then where are your goods?"
"Our goods are in the town ahead, and we just went out for a stroll. You see..."
As Tal spoke, he took out a small bag of silver nar from his arms and handed it to the leader. There were more than ten silver nar in this small bag, which was equivalent to the patrol captain's income for more than a year.
However, the captain did not look moved at all. Instead, he put his hands behind his back to avoid suspicion, and said:
"Don't do this to us Hunter. Take off all your turbans and hats and inspect them all."
As the patrol leader of Xiaoshi Village, Mokane can be considered an experienced person. This team of self-proclaimed timber merchants in Piaoxue City seemed suspicious to him from the beginning.
The lack of goods around can be explained by the fact that the goods are in the town. Being taller does not break the perception of Northlanders, but it just makes people think that the people in this team are slightly taller. These people have bulging waists and are obviously
It doesn't matter that they are armed. Caravans almost always carry weapons for self-defense. After all, the security in other places is not as good as that of the Hunter family.
It's cold in the north, and wearing a thick fur hat and scarf wrapped around your head is normal attire, but when all these seemingly explainable factors are concentrated on the same group of people, it becomes different.
Mercone didn't think about the orcs. He suspected that these people were blind snow pirates who dared to wander around the Hunter family's territory. When calling Tarr and the others, he made a gesture, and his men
The peasants and soldiers were all those who had been training with Moconne all year round. When they saw Moconne's gesture, they had already set up their formations and were ready to launch an attack at any time.
As for the bribe Tarr offered, it was indeed a considerable fortune for Mercone, but Mercone paid more attention to his own future. He was about to become a quasi-knight. The Hunter family had strict supervision, so he could
I don’t want to fall for more than a dozen silver coins.
Secondly, if this group of people were snow pirates, their belongings would also become their trophies, and they would also receive a lot of military honors. Obviously, it would be more cost-effective to obtain military honors.
"I asked you to take off your hats and turbans. Can't you hear me?"
Seeing that after he had finished speaking, Moconne saw that the group of suspected snow pirates did not respond. He spoke in an aggravated tone, and the patrols around him moved forward with their spears and swords drawn.
The orcs still did not move. They did not react much to the approaching swords and guns. They were all warriors and above. In addition to Tal and Hypatia, there were two great warrior-level warriors. In the case of humans,
There are knight-level and grand knight-level masters beside them. Any one of them will not be afraid of a patrol of more than thirty peasants and soldiers. Naturally, they will not feel nervous. They are just waiting for Tal's order.
"Qiang!"
"Take off your hat and turban!"
This group of people were so confident. The silence of the other party made Mo Kangnei feel nervous for no reason, and even felt a little frightened. He originally felt that a huge crisis was approaching.
Pulling out a sword and holding it to the opponent's neck can be considered an overreaction to a crisis.
"Oh, isn't it good to live?"
Tarr seemed to accept his fate and took off his turban and fur hat according to the other party's order. In Mercone's eyes,
This is a picture with fairly sharp-edged facial features, coupled with its tall figure, which is quite in line with the aesthetics of the Northlanders, but the skin color is a little darker, and some of the skin is a bit rough, which is better than the Northlanders who face the north wind all year round.
People are even rougher,
The main thing is that ear, which is green and slightly fluffy. At first glance, it doesn't look like a human being, nor does it look like a half-elf. It's...
Although orcs are often mentioned by humans, and even hung on their heads like a sword hanging high, after all, orcs have not broken through Dragon's Breath Pass for hundreds of years. Except for the defenders at Dragon's Breath Pass, most of them
Humans have no idea about orcs, so much so that when Mercone saw the pair of fluffy ears, he didn't even react for a moment.
"Orcs!"
After a slight hesitation, Mo Kangnei had already thought of the answer. With both hands, he tried to stab the sword that was already at the opponent's neck into the opponent's throat.
How much military merit is an orc’s head worth~
This was the last thought in Mo Kangnei's mind, and then he flew backwards like a cannonball. Almost at the moment he was hit, Mo Kangnei's internal organs were severely damaged, and he let out a series of tragic sounds.
I don't even have the strength to scream.
"kill!"
"Chi!"
"ah!"
Screams continued one after another. The men in black robes who had just been obedient in front of the patrol became more terrifying than ogres. They could take away one or even several names with one move.
The siege posture put up by the patrol at the beginning was like a joke. Their reaction was not slow. The moment Mokane was knocked away, these team members launched an attack, but none of the attacks were effective. Instead, most of them immediately
Following in the footsteps of Mercone,
Hypatia, who had been patient for a long time, drew out her scimitar the moment Tal took action, and the two patrol members in front of her had their necks cut before they even reacted...
