Chapter 197： Tentative

In the whistling north wind, the heavy snow has dyed the sky and the earth into a vast expanse of white.

An army of trolls is marching hard in the snow. The huge and bloated army stretches for more than ten kilometers. From a high altitude, it looks like a black giant python is moving forward.

However, there are still tiny "ants" around this giant python.

These ants are the sentry riders of the Black Cavalry.

Compared with the huge army of trolls, they are inconspicuous, as if the giant python can move the body at will to crush these ants to death.

However, it was the python that was really nervous at this time.

Prince Okamoto squinted his eyes and looked at the black cavalry whistle riders that looked like tarsal bones, and his heart was full of anxiety and even fear.

He didn't know that the appearance of these black cavalry sentinels was just the eyes that Colin habitually placed behind him, or whether the main force of the black cavalry was nearby?

If the original plan is carried out smoothly, the Black Cavalry should be on the way to the Troll King City by now, and he can also lead the "hundred thousand army" going south to return and occupy the three military fortresses along the Snow Mountain Range. , Completely cut off the black cavalry's back.

But now, Prince Okamoto was a little uncertain.

Did Colin see through this trap?

When he was anxious, Prince Okamoto successively released multiple groups of sentry, trying to check the surrounding situation.

But once these sentry riders were released, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, never going back, completely silent.

This situation made Prince Okamoto a little confused, who had no experience in leading combat.

Only then did he know how different a real marching war was from a paper talk.

The young prince of the southern troll empire couldn't help but raise a thought for a while-could it be that he wanted to repeat his father's mistakes?

In the suspicion of Prince Okamoto, two days passed quickly.

In the past two days, the black cavalry sentry horses surrounded the troll army like this. Once the trolls tried to attack, they immediately scattered and stayed away, but after a short time, they reappeared like flies and couldn’t drive them away. .

At the beginning, the troll soldiers were very nervous, but as time passed, they seemed to have become accustomed to such a group of flies around.

Anyway, these flies don't bite people, just follow along.

But on the third day, the black cavalry sentry that had been looming with him suddenly disappeared.

This made the trolls feel a little uncomfortable for a while.

The young Prince Okamoto did not immediately notice the danger.

Fortunately, this army of trolls still has some experienced troll generals. After observing the abnormal signs of the black cavalry sentry, they immediately sent someone to report to Prince Okamoto to remind the main force of the opposing black cavalry. I'm afraid it will come soon.

Prince Okamoto realized that it was not good, and quickly ordered the army to be gathered, ready to respond to the enemy.

But the response of this huge and bloated army of trolls was desperately slow.

No way, Prince Okamoto was originally a "suspect soldier", and most of them were recruits temporarily recruited. It is impossible to expect them to react quickly on the battlefield.

However, the Black Cavalry would not give the troll time to react slowly.

When the snow in the sky diffused in the distance, the sound of horseshoes was already faintly audible.

The troll generals felt the tremors of the earth, and then they shouted hoarsely, asking the soldiers to raise their shields and spears to protect the outside of the army.

It is a pity that this army of trolls composed of a large number of recruits still exposed many fatal weaknesses when it was about to fight. The array was uneven, the army lacked basic tacit understanding, and the chaos began to spread from the flanks to the entire army like a plague. .

For a time, all kinds of noisy and panic voices gathered together, making the troll army completely unable to enter the rhythm of the war that should have been.

In fact, at this time, it was not the troll soldiers who panicked the most, but the head coach of this troll army-Prince Okamoto.

This troll prince who once thought highly of himself and thought that he could also plan a strategy and win a thousand li on the battlefield, he was panicked at this time.

No matter how calm the battle is, if the command is determined, at this time all have gone away from Prince Okamoto, and the psychological preparations made before the war are of no use at all.

Hearing all kinds of chaotic and noisy requests for orders made Prince Okamoto feel at a loss.

At this time, Prince Okamoto realized that he was not a qualified general at all, and the father he had always despised was probably much better than himself.

Of course, this is nothing strange.

Prince Okamoto is indeed clever, and he is also handy to play tricks, but these are not necessary conditions for a decisive battle on the battlefield.

In short, in this sudden encounter, the performance of the troll army was so bad that it was almost beyond words.

Fortunately, the trolls still have an advantage in military strength. The recruits looked at the comrades who couldn't see the side at a glance, and they wouldn't collapse all at once.

The black cavalry came quickly, accompanied by the sound of thunderous hoofs, and groups of black armored cavalry came on horseback.

But when he got close, he turned his direction slightly and swept across not far from the flanks of the troll army formation.

The hum of bowstrings immediately rang, and the rain of arrows was like flying locusts all over the sky, and it rushed towards the trolls.

"Hold your shield! Don't move!"

"The archer is ready! The spear thrower is ready!"

One after another voices rang in the troll army, but they were quickly drowned in the sound of rumbling horse hooves.

Arrows rained down, and the puff of meat continued to sound immediately, and the troll soldiers fell to the ground, screaming endlessly.

There are no words, no conspiracies and tricks.

The Black Cavalry started the war in the most direct and rude way.

There is almost no interruption in the wave attack.

Thousands of black cavalry lined up in a series, galloping past the flanks of the troll army, and the arrows continued to rise into the sky, turning into a continuous spring rain, constantly falling on the top of the troll.

The trolls also paid a very heavy price for the previous chaos.

The troll soldiers gathered by the hedgehogs fell like a wheat field blown by a strong wind, one by one, and the wanton blood instantly stained the ground under their feet.

After thousands of black cavalry roared past, a clear bright red line was drawn on the flanks of the troll army. There were countless corpses lying down there. The wounded soldiers shouted loudly. The unscathed troll soldiers held them firmly. The shield shivered on top of his head.

But this is just the beginning.

Once the prelude to the war is opened, it will not stop easily.

This wave of the Black Cavalry's offensive was still intrusive. After all, Colin was not sure whether this army of trolls returning south and back was really suspicious.

But after a short and cruel first wave of confrontation ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Colin is already 80% sure that the last elite army of the troll empire is not here.

However, he was not impatient.

In his opinion, the fate of this bloated and weak army of trolls has long been doomed.

The only thing that needs attention is how to eat the opponent with as few casualties as possible.

On the battlefield at this time, the Black Cavalry had already circled back, and once again used the unique method of the cavalry to quickly pass the flanks of the troll army, repeating everything before.

Such a scene is like a replay of the **** battle on the ice a year ago.

Prince Okamoto looked at the black cavalry cruising unscrupulously and slaughtered, thinking hard but could not find a way to break the game, the continuous screams in his ear made Prince Okamoto upset.

To make matters worse, the eyes of his generals gradually became full of distrust...

So, Prince Okamoto, who was so angry, gave a stupid order.
