Chapter 51 God's Choice?
When a large number of footsteps and horse hooves walked together, the movement caused by them spread far away.
A team holding high the flag of the Kingdom of Nagaries was walking forward quickly.
"drive!"
Walking at the front was a female elf standing on a chariot, wearing exquisite armor and a precious headdress.
There were several chariots driving behind her, and there were also many elves with precious clothes and extraordinary temperaments standing on them, but the difference was that they were holding staffs, wearing mage crowns, and hanging various amplitude spells on their bodies.
Various gemstones and magical artifacts.
Further behind is the huge army of high elves.
This is a huge team of more than 5,000 people, plus almost one horse per man of various types of horses (war horses, pack horses, draft horses, mules). The entire team makes a lot of noise when marching, and can be spotted from a long distance away.
their traces.
Among them, there are even more than 500 "Raven Knights" composed of noble children from various places in Nagaris. They have all served in the Elion Cavalry and their riding skills are quite good. In addition, they are equipped with various magics.
The weapons and combat effectiveness are quite impressive.
Three thousand of them are regular troops transferred from Tar'an Lek, and more than a thousand citizen soldiers serve as temporary logistics troops.
The combat effectiveness is very guaranteed.
But they have the same weakness as most elves at this time, that is, their individual combat effectiveness is very strong, but their ability to form formations and their discipline are very poor.
Many elves from the same place gathered together and chatted while marching to form a small group. The entire legion barely formed a long snake formation, but there were many gaps in the middle. The performance of the noble children was slightly better and they could maintain the basic
He is very disciplined, but he keeps talking.
The content is nothing more than a desire for battle, a desire for glory, and the favor of a certain lady/god.
They were not afraid of the Chaos creatures, but they also looked down upon their enemies too much, thinking that as long as the knights charged, they could easily disperse the Chaos troops, and the rest would be a massacre.
"Hasn't the camp set up by Prince Aris Annar arrived yet?"
"Your Highness, we will be arriving soon. We should be able to see it after passing the forest ahead."
"They actually started to go deep into the forest, and even repelled an ambush. When did Aris move so fast?"
Cadrina, standing on the chariot, said doubtfully.
This is a beautiful elf princess (Note 1). She is wearing armor tailored for her. The armor and arm guards look quite heroic.
This is not the first time she has participated in a battle, but it is the first time she has led troops out of the city to fight against chaotic creatures.
When she heard in Tar'an Lek that Aris Anar took the initiative to go to the forest to eliminate chaotic creatures and asked An Lek to send mage reinforcements, she took the initiative to ask Ying to take over the task, and also persuaded the noble council and
The Anar family sent an army of more than 5,000 people.
"Look, everyone! We're here!"
A shout brought Cadrina's thoughts back to reality.
"oh!!!!"
Many knights on horseback waved their lances.
Then the whole team started cheering.
After two days of rapid marching and carrying heavily armed loads, their fatigue made them eager for a safe place to rest.
After the "Eagle Legion" sentries who stayed at the camp discovered this team, they immediately sent out response personnel.
After confirming their identities, the gate was opened to allow more than 5,000 exhausted reinforcements to enter the camp to rest.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
At the same time, the Eagle Legion, which had gone deep into the forest, also set up a simple camp in the "open space" scouted by the cavalry to spend the night.
When the first ray of night falls, everyone is preparing dinner and working to fill their stomachs.
Sudden.
"Roar!!!!"
Dozens of horned beasts held crudely made large axes and moved their thick iron hooves, rushing towards the army's encampment.
"Enemy attack!"
The soldiers near the wall reacted quickly, dropped what they were doing, raised their guns and shields, and got into position to prepare to face the enemy.
But just dozens of horned beasts are really not enough to see.
It's like they knew they were going to die, but they still chose to rush in and engage in harassment.
They rushed over with the thought of certain death, without even preparing a ladder, they rushed over with an axe.
It didn't take long for them to be completely destroyed by the blows of strong bows and sharp blades, and they were unable to cause any losses to the high elves until they died.
"**, they are deliberately dying to disturb our rest!"
"I can also see that using life to delay our pace and rest time is only what these chaotic creatures can do!"
The two sentries standing on the arrow tower frowned and looked at the corpse below and talked to each other.
"Here we go again! It's the Beast Man!"
As he said this, several more beastmen emerged from the forest in the distance.
This time, the javelin was used as the weapon, and the javelin began to be thrown from a distance of thirty to forty meters.
But their accuracy made even the elves under attack laugh.
The sentry standing on the arrow tower could basically ignore the inaccurate javelins by simply squatting down.
"It's not as bad as my underage sister! Haha!"
The elven archers who came after hearing the news only took a few rounds of shooting to eliminate the beastman who was "waving his sword in front of Guan Gong".
…
"Let the soldiers cook and rest in batches! These chaotic creatures seem to be determined to continue the harassment war.
It seems that they have a new leader among them, and they want to use the 'home field advantage' to consume our energy and morale, and wait until the time is right to fight us decisively."
Arisianar came to the wall to observe the situation, gave the order, and then stepped down from the arrow tower and began to patrol the camp to comfort and encourage the soldiers.
However, the method of resting in batches sounds reasonable, but in fact it is not very useful.
No one would really let down their guard at a time like this.
Although there is no story about the boy who cried wolf in this world, everyone knows this truth. Even children can see the tactics of the beastmen.
It's nothing more than repeated harassment like this until the elves completely let down their guard or become exhausted before launching a decisive battle.
So no one dares to let down their guard and become the unlucky guy who gets eaten by the 'wolf'.
Therefore, despite the order to rest in groups, most of the high elves still gathered around the campfire to keep warm after eating, holding their weapons.
Even the soldiers who bravely entered the tent to take a nap did not dare to sleep to death. They just managed to get some rest time in a half-asleep and half-awake manner. Any slightest disturbance could wake them up.
"Tsk..."
Looking at the situation of his comrades around him, Carter was a little helpless. Because he got the plug-in, he was fine even if he didn't sleep for several days, and he could still maintain strong energy.
But the elves around him who were tired after a whole day but couldn't sleep peacefully were miserable. They all wanted to sleep but didn't dare to sleep, which made him feel pitiful just looking at them.
Carter wished he could sneak into the camp of the chaotic creatures and kill their leader.
You must know that after more than half a month of training and accumulation, Carter's combat power, chakra and ninjutsu use at this time have been infinitely close to the level of chunin. If he performs well, it is not impossible to sneak in and kill a chaos lord or beast king.
.
Using Warhammer Total War units to represent it, Carter is now almost like an Elf Noble Officer equipped with magic equipment. On the frontal battlefield, if he lets his hands and feet go full firepower, he can deal with at least hundreds of people.
But it's a pity that the shadow clones he sent out to fight before setting up camp have not sent back any useful information so far.
Otherwise, he would probably find an opportunity to leave a shadow clone in place and sneak out to meet the leader on the opposite side.
"Everyone, even if you can't sleep, close your eyes and squint for a while. Otherwise, if there is a fight later and you are killed because your brains are too muddled to react, your death will be unjust!"
Carter, who had a modern outlook deep down in his heart, persuaded the silent team members.
"Don't worry, leave it to me to keep watch at night!"
After hearing Carter's words, Legolas, who took off his helmet, raised his head and glanced at Carter, showed a smile and asked:
"Captain, even if you say that, who can sleep?
Why don't you tell us how you became so powerful? Last time you faced that big chaos egg at the city gate, you rushed up and solved it with just a few swipes!"
"Yes, yes! Captain, have you been blessed by some god?"
Legolas coaxed, and everyone around him who had been interested in this for a long time joined in the conversation.
Seeing that the listless expressions of the comrades around him immediately turned into curiosity and expectation as soon as they talked about him, Carter gave a wry smile.
After thinking for a while, Carter spoke out the words he had prepared long ago.
"I'm not very sure, which dream should it start from the night after the battle between Tal-Zhoder? I feel like I'm getting stronger every day, and it's not just physical enhancement..."
"Chosen by God?"xn
After hearing Carter's words, the people around them all thought of the gods.
But before they could ask any more questions, a violent vibration came.
It was as if the entire camp had been hit by a hammer, and those who couldn't stand even fell to the ground.
"Large-scale enemy attack! Prepare for battle!!"
