The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

Chapter 140 Preparing for an Ambush
The bombing lasted for a full half an hour before the giants shot out all the boulders they carried with them, and sighed unsatisfactorily.

At this time, the main force of Drucci finally arrived. More than 3000 elite elf warriors and nearly [-] Pendor servants were enough to turn this almost ruined city into scorched earth.

Rohan rode on the heavily armored radish, looked at Fort Almeira, which had lost almost all its walls, and smiled at Ange next to him:
"Let me just say, the effect of the sling is still much stronger than that of the slingshot, you still don't believe it."

"I'm deeply impressed, my lord. I really didn't expect this kind of weak weapon that only appeared in the hands of the Ratman to have such great power!"

Anger looked at the devastated castle with some surprise. The last time he saw the sling was in the battle of the Ratmen.

The small stones fired by the humble slave rats are not enough to pose a threat to the elf's heavy armor, and they can be easily resisted with a shield.

Even the stronger rats, like the gutter-runners, can only make a few dents in their armor with their slings.

But those boulders fired by the slings in the giant's hands can achieve terrifying power comparable to cannonballs.

Except for the slow rate of fire due to the need to swing the rope, there are almost no disadvantages. It is the perfect war machine!

The giant Fam dropped the sling in his hand, took a deep breath, and swung the rope for half an hour. Even the strong giant felt a little tired.

Looking at Fort Amera who had no ability to resist, Fam couldn't help swallowing, and asked Luohan at his feet:
"Can the giants take the lead? After throwing stones for so long, everyone should be starving."

"Okay, eat fast after you enter the city, we need to guard against the reinforcements of the Bacchus Empire that may arrive, and you will come to reinforce them at that time."

"Don't worry, we will use the gravel from the city wall as ammunition supplies, and we will be able to support you soon."

Looking through the binoculars at the imperial soldiers who were crawling out of the ruins, Lohan took back the binoculars and led the team away from Fort Amera.

His goal was not this worthless castle from the very beginning, the imperial legions who came to support him were his main target.

According to the news from the believers of the empire who converted to Ms. Misty, there are six legions of the empire stationed in Boshi City not far away, a total of [-] imperial legion soldiers!

Such a large-scale army still has the advantage of defending the city. Even if Luohan now has giants to help out, it is estimated that he will have to pay a heavy price.

Therefore, the purpose of attacking Almeira Fort is not the ant legs in this castle, but the tens of thousands of imperial troops are the main course!
After obtaining Rohan's permission, the giants excitedly picked up their big sticks and war hammers, screaming and rushing towards the scattered and unsuspecting imperial army.

The general who finally crawled out from under the ruins looked at the surrounding soldiers, their faces were full of horror, and the hands holding the spears trembled uncontrollably.

Seeing this, the general pulled out the saber that had been smashed in two, and shouted to the soldiers who were trying to escape:

"Don't run away, can you escape faster than the giant? All surviving soldiers, prepare for defensive formation!"

Hearing the general's shout, the scattered soldiers finally gathered together and formed a square formation to resist the giant's attack.

However, when he watched the giant rushing to the front lift up his big stick and smash dozens of soldiers into meat paste with ease, the general already knew that it was over.

Fort Al Merah is finished...

————A village under Fort Al-Amera, Pavlun

Since the faith of the Mist Lady has begun to spread, the converted village has not been overrun by the Snake Goddess.

Ms. Misty gave back their faith. Compared with other villages where poisonous snakes are rampant, the local villagers can still catch fat and fresh fish, and grow vegetables and fruits in the farmland.

This made the villagers fanatically believe in the Misty Lady, and even in such a difficult environment, they still built a shrine belonging to the Misty Lady.

Even some war-weary veterans came to this village and formed a militia, ready to protect this moment of peace in this troubled world.

However, all of this is a naked betrayal to the conservative church of the Bacchus Empire.

The empire has given you land and the right to survive in troubled times, but you actually built pagan shrines on the land of the empire. This is betrayal!

What, even set up a private armed force?

This is treason!

"Run, the army of the empire is coming!"

Accompanied by the horrified shouts of the sentinels at the village gate, overwhelming fire arrows fell from the sky and fell into this peaceful and harmonious village.

Hundreds of imperial cavalry armed with light crossbows smashed through the weak fence at the entrance of the village, shooting these fleeing villagers with crossbow arrows.

"Run away, the empire is going to slaughter the village!"

"Why, what did we do wrong?"

"They want to kill them all, brothers, quickly cover those villagers from escaping!"

……

The militiamen tried to resist the massacre with hunting crossbows and wild boar spears, but how could untrained villagers be the opponent of the elite army of the empire.

In the wall-shaped charge composed of heavy cavalry, the iron cavalry smashed the shields of the militiamen with ease and crushed the innocent villagers to death.

In less than half an hour, the entire village fell into dead silence, except for the ruined walls and ashes scattered on the ground, only the imperial soldiers who were burning the shrine remained.

Every soldier's face is full of solemnity. After all, they used to burn villages in other countries, but now it is the first time to burn villages in their own country.

Not far from the village, a huge army of tens of thousands of people was marching mightily towards Fort Al-Amera. From the javelins they carried and the black iron spears in their hands, it was not difficult to see that this was an elite army.

"General Agathon, all the heretics have been killed, and the traitors who tried to resist have also been cleaned up."

An imperial knight in charge of leading the army patted his horse and came to General Agathon to claim credit, with a flattering smile on his face covered with blood.

Looking at the thick smoke slowly rising not far away, General Agathon knew that the village of Pavlun was burning, so he asked expressionlessly:

"Good job, honorable Mr. Knight, we have successfully slaughtered a defenseless imperial village, and our hands are covered with the blood of our compatriots. What reward do you want?"

"General, His Majesty's order is to never tolerate these heretics. We should not be kind to these heretics!"

Hearing General Agathon's reprimand, the imperial knight didn't feel any remorse at all, instead he retorted somewhat eccentrically.

He was a knight belonging to the legion, and although he nominally obeyed General Agathon's orders, he was not the opponent's subordinate, so naturally he did not fear him.
