Just when Allen was about to set off again with more than 3,000 cavalrymen who had undergone simple training, the 2,000 reinforcements sent by the emperor finally arrived successfully.
Looking at the weather-beaten middle-aged man in front of him, Allen unexpectedly called out his name: "Ignaus? What kind of wind brought you here?"
"Long time no see, Lord Duke." A smile suddenly appeared on the middle-aged man's originally serious face.
He is none other than the former leader of the Alteran tribe, and is now the key figure responsible for guarding the north and preventing trolls from moving south through the Alteran Mountains - Ignaus.
Under normal circumstances, this person would never leave his territory easily.
And as a highlander, he hates the relatively warm plains and prefers mountains covered with snow all year round.
What¡¯s even more interesting is that, whether in the original Azeroth script or in this magically modified universe, Ignaus finally fought through a one-on-one duel with Thoradin. Made friends.
When the entire tribe was incorporated into the empire, there were no wars or conflicts, so the highlanders in the Auckland Mountains have always maintained a relatively independent state.
??In other words, apart from joining the Arathor Empire in name only, they still maintain their original tribal style.
The most important thing is that this tribe has fought the trolls the most times in the north and has accumulated rich combat experience.
It will even carry enough flammable materials during battle to prevent the troll's powerful regeneration ability by burning it with flames.
What¡¯s even more outrageous is that Ignaus was followed by a thousand Highland cavalry and a thousand cavalry wearing royal emblems.
Suddenly, Allen thought of something and immediately asked in an uncertain tone: "Did Thoradin ask you to come?"
"That's right! His Majesty the Emperor is worried that the situation will develop in the worst direction, so he asked me to bring people to help first. But it seems that you have taken the initiative and are you ready to take the initiative?" Ignaus He glanced at the soldiers who were ready to go and seemed to have high morale.
You must know that when he came, he was already prepared to face an isolated city surrounded by thousands of trolls.
But the actual situation seems to be much better than expected.
And he did not see the fear of trolls and war in the eyes of these human warriors. Instead, they looked eager to make contributions.
Morale is always one of the most important factors affecting the outcome of a war.
Ignaus was very curious about what Allen had done to keep soldiers and civilians in such a positive and optimistic spirit.
Seeing the curiosity revealed in the other person's eyes, Allen smiled and pointed at the bloody troll heads hanging on the city wall and said: "A few days ago, I took the initiative with one hundred and fifty cavalry to attack in the wild. I set a trap and annihilated hundreds of the enemy's most elite velociraptor cavalry. Now, I'm going to take people to hunt trolls, are you interested in joining?"
"The Amani Empire's Velociraptor Dragoons?!"
Ignaus¡¯s pupils suddenly dilated, as if he couldn¡¯t believe what his ears were hearing.
As one of the human tribes that has the most dealings with trolls, he is very aware of how terrifying the Amani Raptor Dragoons are.
Even on snow-covered mountains, these guys can leap and jump between steep cliffs and mountain streams, launching attacks in unexpected ways.
Whenever he sees the Velociraptor Dragoons appearing, the most effective response Ignaus can take is to hide in the castle and huddle up, using tall and solid walls to resist these terrifying monsters.
"Well! You know, there are many elemental creatures all over this land. I happened to find a thunderstorm element gathering area on the troll's marching route." Allen explained with a smile.
"So you introduced those Velociraptor Dragoons into the territory of the Thunderstorm Element?" Ignaus had a look of sudden realization on his face.
Because elemental creatures are obviously more powerful than some fleshy trolls.
After all, reality is not a game, and it is impossible to kill an elemental creature that has no fixed form and is just a ball of energy with an ordinary sword in your hand.
Even if there are earth elements in form, it usually takes repeated hits with a heavy hammer to barely kill one or two of them.
So if there is anything that can restrain the Amani Raptor Dragoon to death, it must be an elemental creature.
"No, I sent people to irritate those elements, and then?¡¯s smile.
"More than 10,000 poisonous arrows? It seems that I have to observe a moment of silence for those trolls who offended you." Ignaus made a rare joke.
"Let's go, let's go hunting trolls happily. With the two thousand cavalry you brought, I think the action can be bigger."
Allen couldn¡¯t help but drag Ignaius into the water without any explanation.
In this way, two cavalrymen set off from the fortress in a mighty manner and approached northwest.
It didn¡¯t take long before they discovered the vanguard of the troll army.
These fanged guys have obviously learned their lesson, and almost everyone is carrying a shield.
Although many of them are very crude, and some even have leaves and buds growing on them, they can still effectively resist arrows shot from a distance.
When he saw the large-scale human cavalry appearing on the horizon, the troll commander immediately shouted loudly, asking all warriors to gather together to form a very tight defensive formation.
Seeing this scene, Allen laughed happily and commented while laughing: "Very good reaction speed, isn't it? These trolls are not as stupid as we thought. On the contrary, they are very smart and They are very good at learning. The only question is, how long can they hold on holding their shields like this?"
"Why don't you let me speed up the process."
Ignaus smiled grimly and drew out his sword, leading his two thousand cavalry to start circling around the phalanx formed by the trolls.
From time to time, he will deliberately pose as if he is about to charge, forcing the opponent to constantly change direction.
Whenever there is chaos in the formation adjustment, Allen will immediately order his cavalry archers to step in and shoot at random areas where the shield is not completely covered.
In the end, only about ten minutes later, the troll vanguard, which numbered about 7,000 in total, collapsed.
In other words, the troll's irritable and irritable character is simply not suitable for infantry phalanx, a strategy that requires strict discipline to maintain.
They rushed forward like crazy, trying to catch up with this group of despicable humans who could only shoot arrows on horseback, drag them off their horses, kill them, and then eat them as food.
It¡¯s a pity that the troll has obviously forgotten that he can¡¯t outrun a four-legged horse with two legs.
Even if the soldiers charge, they can only close a certain distance in a short time, but they will soon be shot to death by the horse archers on the way like walking a dog.
For a moment, the cavalry archers who were temporarily recruited by Allen seemed to have returned to the era of tribal nomads.
They were in groups of three and five, using the speed advantage brought by the horses to keep a certain distance from the trolls, and killed them one by one with the bows and arrows in their hands.
Those who shoot more accurately can even shoot an arrow into the troll's eyes and mouth, penetrate the brain and kill it instantly.
Ignaus also unceremoniously launched surprise attacks from behind again and again, leaving the trolls with no way to reorganize effective resistance.
This massacre lasted for more than forty minutes. By the time the troll follow-up troops arrived, more than two-thirds of the seven thousand trolls had been reduced, and the remaining ones had lost their fighting spirit and began to flee.
In comparison, the losses of Allen and Ignaus are almost negligible.
Except for a few unlucky ones who were killed by spears thrown by troll hunters, most of the soldiers were intact, except that their arms were slightly sore from repeatedly pulling bows and shooting arrows.
"Asshole! It's that damn human again! Who is he?" the warlord from the Amani Empire roared angrily.
It¡¯s a pity that no troll can answer his question.
In other words, before humans established a country, the trolls didn¡¯t care about the humans in the south at all, and they didn¡¯t send anyone to collect intelligence.
You must know that the death of four to five thousand troll warriors is not a small number.
The most important thing is that in this battle, the human cavalry showed an overwhelming advantage.
In the open grasslands, plains and hilly areas, trolls who are accustomed to hiding in dense forests to fight cannot come up with very good countermeasures at all.
At the same time, Ignaus undoubtedly noticed the gorgeous armor of the Troll Overseer. He touched the thick beard on his chin and asked, "Is this the Overseer sent by the Amani Empire?"
"Yes. That guy has the power of witchcraft in his body. You'd better be careful and don't confront him easily. Otherwise, if you are poisoned by some terrible poison, even I won't be able to save you." Allen lowered his voice. The voice reminded. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
