Chapter 0033 Ambush
The world of swords and magic has similar social structures to medieval Europe.
The so-called nobles only have good reputations, but nine out of ten are wasteful people. They are ignorant, greedy, stupid, and they are completely dung-making machines. So when a nobleman who is capable of appearing is really like a "saint from heaven."
But Zhou Qingfeng didn't think he was very good. If he was excellent, he should command hundreds of people to fight, instead of just bringing more than a dozen people to a "armed parade" and really showing off his ability to bring a bunch of people out. I'm afraid he's embarrassed to care about his head and tail.
After waiting by the woods at the intersection for two hours, the sentry sent to the Platy Village ran back in panic and stutteredly: "Master Hugo, those goblins are coming, there are a lot of them, and there are two big guys."
What is the number of people?
What are the two big guys?
Zhou Qingfeng frowned in anger, asked repeatedly many times, and it was only after the old dwarf came forward to explain.
The number is more than thirty. This cannot be calculated by fingers. The servant who acted as a whistle detective could not count the toes and could only be sweating profusely. However, it should not be more than fifty, otherwise the servant would be afraid to faint in the middle of the road.
As for the two "big guys", I asked the relative of the "bear goblin" who should be the goblin for a long time. This is a variant of the goblin. You can tell that it is very big and a big guy who can compete with the barbarians after hearing the name.
Bear goblins are reckless, irritable, and cruel. They are usually officers among goblins. They are thick and powerful, have a keen sense of smell, and know certain tactics. However, they are prone to go crazy after being angry, and then launch a headless attack, and they will never stop.
This is not an easy enemy to deal with.
When they heard that the number of enemies was superior and there were two very powerful bear goblins in charge, the villagers "warriors" who came out of Zhou Qingfeng turned pale and immediately became depressed and fearful. They looked at each other, wondering what to do?
Zhou Qingfeng dared to bet that if the bear goblin appeared, his trash would immediately scream and escape, and even his head would not escape.
"What are you afraid of? Are you just two bear goblins?" Zhou Qingfeng had to stand up and boost morale. "I am a man who even killed the leader of the mud monster, so I will leave the two bear goblins to me. Just kill those goblins who are screaming "Oak"."
Hahaha
After saying this, everyone was feeling better.
There are tall men holding on to him when the sky falls, and now the "tall men" is Uncle Zhou. He takes care of the hardest and most difficult work, and the others feel much more relaxed and can laugh.
The old dwarf lowered his voice and asked, "Can you really deal with two bear goblins? They are cunning and suspicious by nature, but they are really hard to deal with."
Zhou Qingfeng could only bite the bullet and said, "Don't worry, I have a solution."
The old dwarf was half-believing and half-doubted and didn't say more.
Uncle Zhou was under great pressure. He quickly called the servants sent out for investigation and asked carefully how far the enemy was and how the formation was. After asking carefully, he divided more than a dozen "warriors" under him into two groups.
"Everyone is quiet, no words are allowed, the crossbow is in the strings. The goblin's baggage team will arrive in about half a quarter of an hour. I will shoot at whoever I order to shoot at later?"
"Remember, the bear goblin is behind the baggage team. So when the goblin's convoy appears later, no one is allowed to shoot first. Let the enemy's front team go over and kill the most threatening one first. If anyone does not follow the order, I will kill him first."
When the villagers heard this, they were all stunned. The boss said, "Leave it to you to deal with." This is how we deal with it? Isn't this forcing us to fight?
Zhou Qingfeng had no time to talk nonsense. He personally acted as the supervisor team, standing behind the two groups of men, with a tough tone and a fierce face. He and the old dwarf divided the work, each leading a group. When he saw the bear goblin appear, he would gather fire to shoot the two big guys first.
The serious order made the atmosphere suddenly tense. After relaxing, all the "warriors" entered the state of fighting. Many people's teeth began to ring, their breathing was rapid, and they were sweating coldly.
The people in Kurozo Village have never done such a "big thing". In the past, they all obeyed, fled when they encountered trouble, and hid when they encountered danger. This was the first time they took the initiative to provoke the Magru tribe, the largest power in the Black Forest.
It is inevitable that some people are nervous, looking around, and habitually want to escape. If someone takes the lead, the dozen or so people in front of them will probably be unable to control them.
The old dwarf also stayed with these villagers for a long time and knew their personalities too well. He also knew that the arrow was on the string and had to fire it. Once he retreated, he would be wasted all his efforts. So he stood up and shouted: "Whoever dares to escape now, I will arrest him and dissect him."
Everyone in the village of Kurozo is afraid of the things that the dwarf witch doctor does. Old Borg is a spellcaster at least, he is particularly cold-blooded and ruthless, forcing everyone to deal with his little care and grit his teeth and think about how to fight.
After the high pressure, Zhou Qingfeng whispered again: "As long as you kill two bear goblins, the other goblins will never be our opponents. I will only have half of the supplies I will snatch later, and I will give you half of the remaining half. I will guarantee you to get rich."
Coercion and temptation, forcibly win people's hearts.
When hearing the benefits of being able to divide half of them, a group of mobs finally showed a little murderous aura of "putting them to death and then resurrecting". No matter how many beautiful words are, it is better to give them benefits directly.
Under heavy rewards, there must be a brave man. In order to win wealth, some people are willing to fight to the death.
The woods at the intersection finally became quiet. Everyone held their breath and stared at them waiting for the enemy to appear. After about five or six minutes, they heard the sound of squeaking wheels not far from the road.
After a while, the sour smell unique to the goblins drifted with the wind.
The leader was about seven or eight goblin soldiers, holding short spears and walking lazily in front. They fought and chased each other occasionally, without any tension when they were present.
There were more than a dozen goblin archers behind him, who were also looking around, not knowing what they meant.
The ambushing team was delighted. It was always a good thing for the enemy to be unsuspected. Someone smiled and wanted to speak, whispered to each other. Zhou Qingfeng stared at him fiercely, pointed at the crossbow arrow, and quickly remembered to keep quiet.
The leading goblin walked by, followed by several vehicles. The more prominent one was two tall trenchers, pulled by mules and horses, and the speed was very slow. There were also a few drooping humans sitting on the frame, which seemed to be craftsmen who were forcibly arrested.
There are also some human slave workers who are responsible for driving, and they are often whipped by goblins and tremble.
Behind the catapult, there were bags of burlap bags, which should be filled with food. After all, hundreds of goblins have surrounded Baiya Village and must deliver food to them.
At the end of the convoy, two tall bear goblins were carrying their weapons and talking in a low voice. They were talking about goblins, not knowing what they were talking about, and they showed fierce smiles from time to time.
The convoy was getting closer and closer, Zhou Qingfeng's own heartbeat was also accelerating, and the air in the woods became almost solidified. More than a dozen light crossbows were slowly moving the sight, aiming at the target that was about to enter the kill range.
At this moment, a bear goblin suddenly twitched his nose, sniffed the air in confusion, and muttered a few times. The other bear goblin grabbed the heavy hammer carrying the shoulders and looked at the woods where Zhou Qingfeng was ambushing.
