This round of counterattack not only defeated the snow giants to the east, but the snow giants attacking on both sides also retreated in disorder. Thousands of snow giants were dragged away and fled, and were attacked by dragons, angels, titans and champions.
The knights chased him all the way.
If this number of snow giants still maintain their fighting spirit and fight against them in an organized manner, they will not be unable to resist even if they face the heroic and invincible high-level soldiers who are several times more powerful. But now they have left their backs to them.
They killed the enemy and were slaughtered like pigs and sheep. The only difference was that the sound of their falling was much louder than that of pigs and sheep.
"Stop them!"
The speed of the snow giants' escape was definitely not slow. When they scrambled to escape, the speed of these running snow giants was comparable to that of the galloping horses. Normal human troops would never be able to catch up with them.
However, the ones chasing them were not normal human armies. How could the human army appear in one battle with more than a dozen giant dragons and bird-men with wings flying around in the sky? The only champion knights who looked like normal humans
Each of them can inspire out-of-body fighting spirit, and regardless of their size, their power is still higher than that of the Snow Giant warriors.
Originally, the rear group of the Snow Giants was being harvested continuously, and they wished they had a few more legs to run away. However, when they returned, the gaps that had been opened were actually blocked by the remaining soldiers of the Griffin Legion. They had suffered a lot of losses before.
The Griffin Legion actually organized again and intercepted the escaping Snow Giants in the outer positions.
"Gryphon Legion!"
"glory!"
Facing the fleeing Snow Giant troops, the Griffin Legion once again used the anti-horse ground spurs and other equipment they had prepared to intercept.
"boom!"
The fleeing snow giants had no choice this time. Unlike when they attacked, they could still find a gap. After destroying the surrounding human soldiers, they could clear out the ground thorns and ground horses to open the passage.
The snow giants who fled this time were unorganized and disorderly. They were not so calm when faced with rows of horseback and ground thorns. The Griffin Legion obviously took this situation into consideration when setting up the entire position.
Surprisingly, the reverse still works.
The snow giants in the front row saw the rows of giant iron horses and a large number of ground thorns, as well as the gryphon legion soldiers preparing to attack. They instinctively wanted to stop, but the snow giants running behind had completely lost their minds. After all,
The humans behind are still chasing and killing, and no one can stop them. Those who run slower will die, and no one dares to stop.
"Don't push, don't push!"
"ah!"
The snow giant in the front row stopped, but the people in the back row were busy running for their lives and were squeezed directly onto the Juma, and they were forced into the Iron Juma.
"boom!"
Because there were so many escaping snow giants, the large iron horses that had been specially fixed were squeezed hard until they collapsed to the ground. There were still a few corpses that were trembling slightly or even struggling attached to them.
But the Snow Giant in the back row showed no sympathy for his companions at this moment. Facing the struggling Snow Giant who fell to the ground, he not only had no intention of rescuing him, but instead stepped directly on him, causing the Snow Giant who was still struggling to do so.
Completely lost his life.
"kill!"
Rhodes is still fighting on the front line. This hero who upholds the spirit of chivalry satisfies Richard in all aspects. The only thing that gives Richard a headache is that as a commander, Rhodes is prone to fighting and starts fighting at every turn.
Lead the charge.
Just like now, facing the fleeing snow giants, iron horses and ground thorns alone cannot effectively prevent the snow giants from escaping. They also need the griffin legion soldiers interspersed among them to stop them.
Rhodes became the one who killed the hardest again, blocking the Snow Giant that was squeezing through Juma's stab formation like a rock.
"Just order Rhodes to get out of the way and let the Griffin Legion attack from both sides."
The griffin army's efforts like this can indeed cause greater casualties to the snow giants, but in Richard's opinion, it is not worth it. Even if they rely on the position composed of iron horses and ground thorns, these fleeing snow giants have passed through these positions.
The equipment will also cause casualties to the Griffin Legion. It is not cost-effective to block the defeated troops head-on, let alone these defeated troops are still behemoths like Snow Giants.
"Spread out to the wings!"
Although Rhodes occasionally came forward, he still had the ability to execute orders when Richard ordered them, and he immediately ordered the Griffin Legion soldiers to move aside.
Without the griffon legion to block them, the snow giant soldiers soon used their own flesh and blood to clear a path, and even used their flesh and blood to pave the way for the snow giants behind them. The snow giants in the back row stepped directly on the front.
The body of the fallen snow giant rushed out of the Griffin Legion's position.
"Griffin Legion, clean up the battlefield immediately and rest where you are!"
Richard, who was leading the pursuit, did not forget to issue orders in time. The outer positions were crucial to the defense of Snowfield City. Now many facilities have been destroyed by the snow giants. The Griffin Legion itself suffered a lot of casualties. Without knowing the snow,
When the next wave of giant attacks would come, Richard first issued an order for the army to seize the time to restore defense.
Of course, the pursuit here also did not stop. These snow giants are all large experience packs. The experience provided by one snow giant is worth the experience provided by dozens of orc warriors, and the defeated snow giants are no better than
It is much more difficult for ordinary orc warriors. For Richard, who now needs a lot of experience to upgrade, of course nothing can be wasted.
"Chi!"
"boom!"
"ah!"
…
Richard, who was leading the chase behind the Snow Giant soldiers, was holding the Vulcan Sword. With his fighting spirit aroused, the tongue of fire spit out seven or eight meters away, killing an escaping Snow Giant warrior in the back row with one blow.
The snow giants crowded forward in even greater fear. Many snow giants were pushed to the ground while escaping and did not get up. On the path of the snow giants' escape, you could see some shapeless snow giants lying on their backs and being trampled.
Giant corpse.
"Keep chasing!"
After paying a heavy price, the snow giant who escaped from Juma's stabbing formation originally thought he had escaped from the sky, but the clatter of horse hooves behind him still sounded, and more than a dozen giant dragons in the sky flew directly into the snow.
The giants are breathing air from their heads, and they are not worried about being counterattacked by the snow giants. It is impossible for these collapsed snow giants to have the courage to fight back.
"How dare humans chase after me!"
In the distance, the three snow giant leaders now looked extremely ugly. In their opinion, even if the two thousand vanguards fled back after being frustrated in the east, the casualties should be controlled within 500, but after the interception of the Griffin Legion and Richard's failure,
After a reasonable pursuit, it would be considered good if the Snow Giant warrior could escape with a thousand dollars.
In their estimation, humans should only dare to fight in those piles of war equipment. At most, a dozen giant dragons would continue to attack in the sky. The ground army would not dare to continue pursuing. However, Richard led the champion knights and
Troops from other systems pursued them all the way, causing casualties to the snow giants.
"Send someone to respond!"
"Let the remaining three thousand-man troops go!"
"We will personally take people there to teach these humans a lesson."
"These humans are too arrogant."
Because this attack was really ugly and too demoralizing, the leaders of the three snow giant tribes actually prepared to directly lead their men to attack the system army that Richard had chased out.
…
"Lean to both sides!"
"Don't attack this formation!"
"Those who come near die!"
Because the three thousand-man troops had been assembled long ago, after the snow giant leaders gave the order to attack and respond, they quickly moved to meet the broken troops coming down from Snowfield City and the chasing humans.
Some snow giants separated from both sides, trying to surround the pursuing human army. In the eyes of several snow giant leaders, these humans became arrogant because of their victory in a battle, and actually looked like they were going to fight directly on the ground.
Posture.
"If you surround these human knights and those strange giants, don't destroy them immediately. Let's see if the giant dragon in the sky will come to save them!"
"good!"
The Snow Giant's response force had already set off, but Richard, who was leading the pursuit, seemed unaware of the Snow Giant's intentions. He looked as if he wanted to pursue them deeply. Hao didn't care about the Snow Giants on both sides trying to encircle them.
"kill!"
Another snow giant fell under Richard's sword. These snow giants ran a thousand meters away from the outer positions of Snowfield City. However, in this short distance of one thousand meters, Richard had already killed four snow giants, plus the giant.
With the records of dragons, titans, and champion knights, at such a short distance, the snow giant dropped more than two hundred corpses.
But at this moment, the three snow giant leaders were no longer angry. Instead, they looked excited and were just trying to stay calm. This feeling was like they saw a group of mammoths being lured in while hunting.
My trap is the same, except this time the bait is a little more expensive.
Because their encirclement seems to be almost completed, these guys who are chasing them dare to chase so deep. If all the dragons are chasing them, they will only suffer a loss, but the opponent also brings a lot of ground troops, so they are now
I'm going to charge interest first.
"withdraw!"
Just when they thought they were sure to defeat the ground troops chasing the other side, a scene that shocked them happened. More than 20 cavalrymen and three of them disappeared at the same time, and the next moment they appeared again a few hundred meters away, and then
He turned his head coolly and retreated towards Snowfield City. The whole process was like a dream.
They thought that humans were arrogant after a small victory, but they didn't expect that their own plan turned out to be a funny performance.
"The ability that suddenly appeared on the battlefield! It's actually real!"
Among the three leaders of the Snow Giant Tribe, the other two looked stunned. Only the leader of the Snow Wind Tribe seemed to suddenly remember something.
The defeated soldiers of the Yukikaze tribe had previously described to him that human dragons appeared out of thin air and attacked from above their heads, causing a wave of huge casualties to the soldiers of the Yukikaze tribe who adopted a dense formation. Before, he thought it was just the defeated soldiers who did not.
Be careful and vigilant. Only when the giant dragon descended from the sky and attacked did he have the illusion that the dragon appeared out of thin air. But now he saw that the group of humans who were surrounded just now suddenly broke away from the encirclement. He realized what the previous defeated soldiers were describing.
situation.
"Retreat first and gather the defeated troops."
No matter how unreasonable the matter was, it still happened in full view of the public. The Snow Giant side had no good solution at this time except to withdraw the person first.
The losses in this siege were not unbearable. Because of Richard's desperate pursuit, only a few hundred snow giants died directly in the siege. The snow giants killed from behind were actually greater than the losses in the siege.
After the Snow Giant tribe took a careful inventory after the war, they found that less than half of the two thousand attacking warriors returned successfully. The last time the Snow Giants suffered such heavy casualties in a war was when they competed with the White Dragon for the dominance of the snowfield.
…
Snow Giant Camp
After a day of fierce fighting, it should not be a disastrous defeat. At this time, the atmosphere in the Snow Giant camp was a bit solemn. The Snow Giant leaders all looked sad, especially some small and medium-sized tribes. Most of the men lost today were
They were drawn from these small and medium-sized tribes, and they had only a small number of people. If more than a dozen people died at one time, it would be considered a serious injury.
"Let's talk about what we should do next."
Now that the conflict between the Snow Wind Tribe and the White Wind Tribe has been put aside for the time being, the leaders of these tribes are not fools. Although everyone usually competes for hunting grounds, it is a conflict within the rules of the Snow Giant. Now it is better, humans are under their control.
A city was built in the middle of the contested hunting ground. This had a huge impact on the three major tribes. Once humans gain a foothold, it is not certain whether they will have the final say in this area in the future. No matter what conflicts arise, they must cooperate well now.
"Although our attack suffered a setback today, it was because we were unprepared. Moreover, the attacking soldiers were not ineffective at all. Those annoying things on their periphery have been destroyed a lot, and they haven't had time to recover yet.
If we continue to attack, humans may not be able to stop it."
"this…"
As soon as the leader of the White Wind Tribe spoke, the leaders of the surrounding small and medium-sized tribes lowered their heads, obviously no longer willing to continue the attack.
"We can attack directly at night without giving humans a chance to breathe."
"But, I can't see clearly how to attack at night."
"We just can't see clearly, it's not that we can't see. We just need to rush in one direction. The environment of the snowfield is not something humans can adapt to. Our soldiers can withstand the cold at night, but humans can't."
"Otherwise, we should wait for reinforcements from Wang Ting."
"Yes, our tribe has lost nearly one-third of its warriors today, and we can't spare any more."
"yes…"
The leaders of the Snow Giant tribe all looked in a dilemma. When all the tribes were unwilling, the leader of the White Wind tribe could not force it. After all, there were two other large tribe leaders.
"Let's surround the humans first, denying them the opportunity to replenish supplies, and wait until the reinforcements from the Royal Court arrive before attacking."
"Yeah…"
The leader of Xuefeng Tribe's words immediately received responses from other tribes. The war came to a temporary halt, and Xuefeng City also got some time to rest...
