The dwarves arranged in a square formation and protected their cargo tightly. Only the crossbowmen responsible for output stood on small carts to increase their altitude to support their compatriots at any time.

In a short period of time, the deft dwarves unloaded a lot of goods from the carts and placed them on the outermost edge to block the possible presence of the beastman cavalry "centaurs".

The ranger who had just returned from reporting the news had replaced the short bow used for self-defense with a more powerful heavy crossbow.

It's not that dwarves can't use bows, it's just that most of them are small bows with low power. After all, given their height, forcing them to use a big bow will have the same funny effect as a 1.5-meter Japanese pirate using a so-called Japanese bow.

A few dwarves carrying a large basket on their backs, while there was still time, scattered triangular iron nails with stickers in the open area as if they were free of charge.

Since their rise in the mountains, the dwarves have often fought against beasts and the legions of Chaos.

This triangular iron nail is quite effective when dealing with beastmen. The beastmen, whose basic shape is similar to that of a sheep's hoof, have no habit of wearing shoes. As long as they step on the iron nails, they will bleed and their movements will be severely deformed.

The Beastmen, who originally had no advantage in close combat with the dwarves, would be at an overall disadvantage when the iron nails were embedded in their feet. It was easy for them to lose their morale and be hunted down all the way.

As for the dwarves, these dwarves have the habit of wearing iron shoes. The skin on their feet is much harder than that of humans. They can completely offset the disadvantages of wearing iron shoes.

As soon as a layer of iron nails was scattered, the ground began to shake slightly due to the large number of people and horses moving at the same time.

Several experienced dwarves returned to the array without any hesitation, took down baskets filled with nails, and joined the array fully armed.

There was originally a large amount of military equipment placed on the empty cart that acted as a barrier.

Each dwarf warrior has one in his hand. It is made of high-quality wood and has a diameter of four to five centimeters. Most people cannot hold it with one hand. The thick three-meter spear suitable only for dwarves is one of those supplies.

In addition to carrying a spear and a shield, these thick and short men usually carry one-handed axes for melee combat, as well as throwing objects for long-range attacks on their backs.

Hand axes, wolf bones, javelins and the special iron ball are all the throwing weapons favored by dwarves.

In addition to throwing it from the back row before the battle, the dwarves also like to throw another round when they defeat the enemy's array, in order to kill as many enemies as possible, and at the same time slow down the enemy's escape, making it easier for him to go up and kill happily.

Although they are full of energy and have amazing foot power, sprinting in a short period of time is by no means their strong point.

So I have to think of all kinds of crooked ideas to make up for this disadvantage.

…………

"Huh... dwarf, front!"

In the dark and quiet forest, full of the stench of rotting leaves, a centaur whose upper body was so strong that it formed muscle armor, panting and moving its limbs, shouted towards the large army.

The spear made of wood and animal bones in his hand looked a bit shabby compared to his strong body.

"Tear, call...stop!"

Countless black shadows were moving in the forest, and the creature that was two and a half meters in front stopped in its tracks.

The creature stepped out of the shadows and revealed its true form, the leader of the beastman warband, a powerful tauren war general.

"How much...how much?"

"Hundreds, leader!"

Communication between beastmen has always been concise and clear, and complex dialogues rarely occur.

"Huh, tut..."

The tauren warrior didn't know what he was thinking, complex thoughts flashed in his eyes.

The tauren war general didn't know that dwarves were not easy to mess with, but the violent genes engraved in their bodies made it impossible for beastmen to simply be satisfied with eating animals. If they did not lead their men to attack dwarves, barbarian humans would satisfy this desire.

, its status will be challenged before long,

Only by sacrificing truly intelligent creatures can they obtain the evil god's annotations.

A large number of horned beasts, large horned beasts, as well as a small number of razor beasts and centaurs gradually emerged from the jungle.

The number of people was much higher than the two hundred estimated by the dwarf ranger, nearly three hundred.

The weapons in their hands range from the Bone Age, the Stone Age to the Iron Age. If all these weapons of different shapes were donated, a museum could be opened.

Only sharp iron weapons are the rarest in number. Except for the leading tauren warrior, who used different armors to piece together a set of iron armor to protect most of his positions, and a sharp two-handed giant axe, there are only a few.

The big horned beast has an iron weapon in its hand.

There are many reasons for the poor combat effectiveness of the beastmen. Most warbands simply do not receive the attention of the evil god, and they do not know how to smelt metal. This is one of the biggest reasons that limits their combat effectiveness.

"Trap...them!...At night, attack!!"

After receiving the order, the beastmen suppressed their desire to fight and skillfully began to circle around the dwarves, especially the centaurs, who continued to run almost non-stop, creating the illusion that there were people everywhere around them.

…………

"Sir Varaya, why is this kind of trick happening again? Can't you just do it better?"

"These beasts only know this trick, why don't you allow them to use it?"

Hearing the familiar low roars in the surrounding jungle, but no beastman rushed out, many medium-bearded and long-bearded people immediately began to whisper and laugh to each other, and at the same time they couldn't help but begin to relax their muscles and conserve their energy.

Dwarves can march for an entire day, or remain on alert for hours.

There were only a few with short beards, and some of them didn't understand why the beastmen didn't attack.

"Remember, the equipment of these fallen beasts is quite inferior. The chance of winning against us directly is very low, so we usually choose to use some tricks to close the gap caused by the equipment. Using night vision ability to fight in the field is one of them.

, or launch a sudden ambush... Humph, but the stench on their bodies can be smelled a hundred meters away, and no son of the mountains has ever fallen into their ridiculous ambush so far."

Listening to the whispers of his people, Barba jumped off the cart, arranged for a few reliable long-bearded men, and brought some firewood to set up a fire around it.

There is an open space around the storage house that has been deliberately cleared by the dwarves, and there are no other plants except weeds.

The fire was placed thirty or forty meters away from the dwarf array, just on the edge of the forest. In this way, once night fell, the beastmen who walked out of the forest would have no way to avoid it, and would immediately be exposed to the dwarf's heavy crossbowmen.

Under attack.

Time passed bit by bit, and the dwarves took turns inserting the long contradiction cards on the ground, and then sat down on the ground to rest, chatting happily, as if what was about to come was not a bloody killing, but a relaxed one.

Marching in the wild.

Time soon came to midnight, and darkness completely enveloped the earth, with only the faint light of the twin moons still emitting.

The evil whispers around him become more and more dense and sinister, and the terrifying atmosphere is enough to drive people crazy.

But the dwarves still stood there calmly and calmly.

Suddenly, several centaurs, accompanied by a large number of razor beasts, burst out of the forest and silently rushed towards the dwarves.

They hoped to launch a sudden attack and tear a hole in the dwarf array.

“khazukan khazakit-ha!!”

But the seemingly relaxed long-bearded and medium-bearded people, at the moment they rushed out of the forest, they shouted in unison the slogan that the sons of the mountains unified when they encountered the enemy.

The next second, the heavy crossbowman who had been prepared fired a round of fire at the incoming centaur.

The terrifying thousand-pound crossbow, modified by these engineering masters, released a tailless iron heavy arrow as thick as a fist.

"Roar!! Language!!"

A centaur charging at full speed suddenly stiffened as if it had hit a wall. It stopped stiffly. If you look carefully, its left arm, right forelimb and a piece of flesh on its abdomen were all hit by arrows shot by a heavy crossbow. Pulling it off hard, the internal organs and blood vessels were directly exposed to the air.

The crossbow arrows heading towards the centaur missed several of them. As a result, the razor beasts following the centaur suffered a terrible disaster. The three razor beasts were nailed to the ground by the heavy arrows before they even tasted a bit of flesh and blood. , the only good thing is that they die without pain.

Following the footsteps of the centaurs, the beastmen poured out from all directions and rushed towards the dwarf warriors without any plan.

The crossbowmen fired at full speed, killing many people.

A few seconds later, the surviving centaurs screamed in agony, limping forward with blood-red eyes as they continued to charge. Apparently they had stepped on the iron nails scattered on the ground.

"cast!"

However, what awaited them was not a thrilling battle, but a pile of pitch-black objects that crossed a distance of several meters, packed with huge kinetic energy, and hit them directly.

The few surviving centaurs and razor beasts were directly smashed into pulp by the thrown hand axes, wolf bones and iron hammer balls.

After suffering huge casualties and leaving behind more than a dozen corpses, a huge beastman took the lead and rushed to the dwarf like a high-speed car.

It was seen waving the weapon in its hand heavily, and the spears pointed at it were broken in half by the powerful force.

The next second, it directly knocked away the two dwarves in the front row, and then the dwarf warrior in the back row blocked its legs with a shield.

"My ancestors, I will kill you!!!"

Seeing his men being knocked away, Chief Barba shouted angrily. At the same time, his body emitted light, and then he jumped heavily and struck it with an axe.

"roar!!!"

The tauren warrior's right horn was cut off directly, and his shoulder was also hit by this heavy blow, which cracked the bones.

The beastmen who followed immediately started fighting with the dwarf warriors.

Unfortunately, not everyone has an iron ax and the ability to split several spears in an instant. The tauren warrior who went deep alone did not receive timely assistance.

It was obviously only as tall as its thigh, but the dwarf leader was not afraid, and his strength was not much less than that of the tall and powerful tauren. The two of them started to compete with each other with one axe.
Chapter completed!
