Lord Harland.

Chapter 133 Mountain Camp
It is about fifty kilometers into Canyon County from Osmar Castle.

Although the distance is not very far, it is necessary to climb over the mountains on both sides of the Dragon Canyon to enter Canyon County.

The mountains on both sides of Julong Canyon do not exceed 2000 meters, and there are many mountain paths that can enter the canyon.

This canyon leads directly from the city of victory at the mouth of the valley in the south to the vicinity of Heihe Castle in the north.

It is more than 200 kilometers long from north to south and [-] kilometers wide from east to west.The actual area of ​​the Dragon Canyon is larger than that of the Taiyuan Basin.

It is actually more accurate to call this area the Dragon Basin.

It's a pity that Chenxi Continent is a fantasy world, and its land area exceeds that of the previous Earth.Because of the legend of the ancient dragon, this area has always been named after the Dragon Canyon.

Li Cha led the coalition of nobles from the two counties and walked for two days into Canyon County.

But the rebels had been prepared for a long time and set up defenders on the mountain road.

Li Cha has never fought a mountain castle attack and defense battle.

But the opponent occupies a dangerous position, and if he wants to enter the Dragon Canyon, he must first defeat the defenders of the mountain road.

Attacking the camps in the mountains, the casualties are bound to be heavy.

The private army in Harland's territory is the foundation of Richard's foothold among the nobles, and it must not be wasted in siege battles.

Therefore, Richard handed over all the initial tentative attacks to the serf soldiers in Brenner County.

The serf soldiers moved tremblingly, holding simple wooden shields, and slowly approached the rebel camp.

After entering the range of the archers, arrows were continuously shot from the mountain camp.

Li Cha stared at the density of arrows in the camp, estimating how much long-range projection power there was in the camp.

The arrows covered the sky like locusts, continuously shooting the serf soldiers into a hornet's nest.

Casualties increased, and the serf soldiers retreated immediately, stimulated by blood.But the supervisor team arranged by Li Cha blocked the way.

Serving as the supervisor of the battle team is the soldier of the Eighth Squadron of Li Cha's direct line.

They have not been grouped for a long time, have not completed the recruit training, the soldiers have only a short time to practice breathing, and have little combat experience.

The last battle was also against rebel serf soldiers, with minimal casualties.Although it seems that the equipment is good and the military capacity is at its peak, the real combat effectiveness has not been tested by the flames of war.

Seeing that the serf soldiers suffered so many casualties and the war was so cruel.

Many soldiers suddenly had weak legs and dry throats, and they were a little dazed when they saw the broken soldiers.

Although there are many recruits, the Eighth Squadron still has more than 30 veterans.These people have many years of experience in the army, and they are the backbone of this recruit.

When the squadron leader Claude gave an order, the soldiers swarmed up and grabbed a dozen rout soldiers. A dozen veteran soldiers raised their knives and killed the rout soldiers who had fled back in an instant.

Claude ordered that the heads of deserters be hung on long wooden poles to intimidate the serf soldiers.

If you rush forward, you will die, if you run back, you will die.

This cruel reality directly broke the will of the serf soldiers.

Casualties exceeded [-]%, and the two serf squadrons that had tried to attack suddenly collapsed, and many of them even took up arms.Want to fight with the supervising team.

On the battlefield, fate favors those who are not afraid of death, and the more afraid of death, the faster they die.

The serf soldiers had already approached the camp, but now they retreated, exposing their backs to the enemy.

Arrows were densely packed, hitting rows of enemies like raindrops.

As if cutting wheat, the serf soldiers fell in rows, and more than 80.00% of them were shot in the back.

The value of these people's lives is really lighter than a feather.

There are only a dozen people who dare to fight with the supervising team. Unfortunately, the equipment and training are far from the regular army, and there is no unified organization.

In an instant, the desperate deserters were all beheaded by the Eighth Squadron.

In just over an hour, more than [-] soldiers died on the mountain road, and the casualties they caused to the rebels did not exceed ten.

Li Cha has participated in many wars, and the harsh flames of war have tempered his heart as hard as iron.

No matter how miserable the serf soldiers were, they could not arouse his sympathy.

Living in a precarious world, if there is too much sympathy, I am afraid it will be my own people who will suffer.

It is an eternal truth that kindness does not lead soldiers.

If you want to command thousands of troops, the most basic quality is to be ruthless.

Sending countless soldiers to the battlefield has turned into pages of casualties.

The death of relatives and friends on the battlefield does not affect the will and confidence to fight. Such a person can be called a qualified soldier.

Today's test attack, if Li Cha lets the first squadron go into battle, there will be a maximum of 30 casualties, and he will be able to find out the defensive strength of the Shandao camp.

Using serf soldiers requires 300 casualties.

The No. [-] Squadron is the backbone of Harland's territory. Many people have followed Richard through life and death many times. They have been in love for five years.

The serf soldiers consumed the strong men controlled by the hereditary nobles of Brener.

As long as you can analyze the pros and cons, you know who should be sent into battle?
After consuming two squadrons of serf soldiers, they roughly figured out the defensive strength of the Shandao camp.

There are about [-] soldiers in this camp. These people are not vagrants with farm tools, but soldiers who have been secretly cultivated by Scarlet Horn for many years.

Their weapons and equipment are already very good, and there should be [-]% of the soldiers equipped with iron armor.

The skills mastered by the soldiers are also very good, and many of them are already quite good at archery.

According to Li Cha's estimation, even if the Warcraft Squadron participated in the battle, if they wanted to capture this camp under normal conditions, at least [-] regular troops would be killed or killed.

After finally training eight squadron soldiers, Li Cha did not plan to spend it on the battlefield.

At this time, you can only take out the hidden cards and use them.

To conquer this kind of mountain camp, the counterweight trebuchet is very useful.

However, the counterweight trebuchet is very heavy. To assemble a heavy trebuchet requires more than [-] carts of wood, and the accessories need to be transported from far away.

It is estimated that it will take more than ten days for the heavy trebuchet to be assembled.

The military situation is urgent, and there is not so much time left for Li Cha.

If he wanted to take down this mountain camp with less casualties, Li Cha could only use the alchemy bombs he had saved.

Creating a magic bomb requires a magician to draw the Explosive Rune.

Counting the magic apprentices in Harland's territory, there are only four people.

Adrian's talent is not good, and he is not yet an advanced magician, so he cannot draw explosive runes for the time being.

Only Li Cha, Sophia, and Wendy can produce alchemy bombs.

Li Cha's time was particularly tight, and he drew the fewest explosion runes.

After Sophia became pregnant, Li Cha refused to let her draw the explosion rune.

Most of the magic bombs in Harland's territory were made by Wendy, and there were only more than 500 in total.

Alchemy bombs are very dangerous, as long as they hit hard ground, they will explode immediately.

The one-kilogram alchemy bomb produced in Harland's territory needs to contain three hundred grams of black powder, and its lethality is not weaker than a standard fireball.

Professionals are in the center of the explosion, and they might lose their lives.
