The enemies that rushed out were killed in large numbers. Even the elite soldiers found it difficult to survive the shooting of hundreds of muskets and crossbows.

But after all, the firing speed of the matchlock gun was too slow.

This density of firepower is not enough to completely resist the enemy's desperate charge.

The infantry columns began to engage in battle.

Although these enemies were at an overwhelming disadvantage in numbers, the combat effectiveness of their individual soldiers was astonishing.

Facing the mercenary infantry arrayed in formation, they were still able to achieve an exchange ratio of over one to two. Several even charged into the crowd, causing numerous casualties.

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the battle.

Thomas was on a slightly higher ground, so he could clearly see the battle ahead.

Not all of them joined the battle, and some broke through from other directions.

There were fewer people trying to break out in those directions, but the encirclement wasn't as tight as the one at the castle's front. It was estimated that a few people would be able to break out.

The mercenary captains all left here and went to the front line to command.

There are only a few people left here now.

There is no suspense in the battle anymore, and it is only a matter of time before this trading post is captured.

The fox wolf looked up and saw the fire inside the castle, his heart turning cold.

This time, her loss was too great.

It's not like she doesn't have enemies. Whether in business or elsewhere, no one is free from enemies.

Now most of her savings and liquid funds have been lost. Her enemies will definitely not let go of such a loophole easily.

There is also this special envoy called Shadow Wolf.

This person must not be kept!

She couldn't even think about anything else. After today, she would immediately contact all parties, especially the Knights and the Gwalan family, to invite experts to surround and kill this special envoy.

But then again, this person has at least three magical items on him, and their power is extremely terrifying. We must be fully prepared, otherwise if he escapes, there will be endless troubles.

The one-eyed wolf suddenly pulled her from behind.

When I looked back, I saw several other people coming over.

Everyone's attention was on the battlefield ahead, so naturally they wouldn't pay attention to these people in the rear.

"I say, I guess Shadow Wolf is already suspicious of us." said the one-eyed wolf.

"Isn't this perfectly normal?" Iron Wolf wondered. "With the alpha wolf being killed off in quick succession, the vicious wolf is naturally the suspect."

"That's not what I meant. What I meant was... he might have found some evidence," said the one-eyed wolf. "It's just that we were so clean before, so he doesn't have enough evidence."

"You mean..."

"I'm afraid his coming here wasn't a coincidence!" the one-eyed wolf said meaningfully. "He must have noticed our relationship with the Gwalan family. Honestly, this isn't difficult!"

Everyone was silent.

It is really hard to say whether forming an alliance with the Gwalan family is a good thing or a bad thing.

After all, that family was a nouveau riche, the kind without a solid foundation. They not only took advantage of the Wolf's Den's convenient intelligence system, but even spread rumors about the Wolf's Den to intimidate outsiders. Little did they know how much trouble this would cause the Wolf's Den.

However, Gwalan is an irreplaceable helper to the prince.

For example, now these rumors have been discovered by Shadow Wolf.

But rumors are just rumors, without any basis, which is why the other party did not take action immediately.

"what do you mean……"

"Now is the best opportunity!" The one-eyed wolf pointed towards that side.

Shadow Wolf is now surrounded by a few followers who came from nowhere, probably from a mercenary group.

But Shadow Wolf's problem is his own strength.

The four wolves had no confidence in killing their target. In fact, let alone killing the opponent, they were not even sure of winning.

Otherwise they wouldn't have endured until now.

After all, the opponent has three magical items, plus his elite warrior strength...

Not to mention four people, even twenty people may not be able to keep each other.

"Can you beat him?" Tielang snorted disdainfully. "I'm still not sure!"

If I could win, I would have done it long ago. Why would I have to curse him?

"I wasn't sure before, but now... I am." The one-eyed wolf said. "I just saw his sword."

"sword?"

"That's a magical item," said the one-eyed wolf. "That's why he was able to defeat the enemy so easily in the attack just now."

Everyone had witnessed the fight just now. After the fierce blow from the air, the attacker was immediately unable to continue and was easily kicked away by Shadow Wolf.

"The previous failed curse proved that he possessed a magical item designed to defend against mental attacks. Also, the last time the Fox Wolf met him, he saw him using a magic rope to scale the wall," said the one-eyed wolf. "So, all three items are complete."

Everyone exchanged glances.

"And now..." the one-eyed wolf continued. "That mental defense isn't working. There's no space around here for the magic rope to leverage, so the magic sword is the only thing that's really useful. You saw the effect of that magic sword just now... As long as the weapons don't collide, it shouldn't have any effect."

Deliberately avoiding weapon collisions will naturally bring disadvantages to the battle.

But this disadvantage can be completely offset by the advantage in numbers. After all, there are four of them, four against one.

"But what is his own extraordinary power?" asked Baolang.

"I don't know," said the one-eyed wolf. "So now we only have a 70% chance of success... Should we take action? If not, we need to think long and hard and plan carefully. We need to thoroughly uncover his true identity..."

"I suggest you take action!" said the jackal. "Look over there."

Everyone looked over and saw horses.

Cavalry was useless in this kind of battle, so most of the cavalry dismounted and marched on foot.

Many horses were scattered behind, with few people looking after them.

"If anything goes wrong, you can just leave!" The fox wolf gritted his teeth and stroked his face with his hand.

When the fox wolf thought of what had just happened, he felt an uncontrollable fear in his heart.

The author says:

Author's words: Thank you readers An Zi and Zun Zhe for the tips. I will update tomorrow!

I really can't do it today.

Chapter 230: War 6

The four of them exchanged glances.

They have been partners for many years, and they understood each other at first sight.

Everyone separated and surrounded Shadow Wolf from behind.

The fox and wolf walked in front.

Her footsteps were as light as cotton wool, and her breathing was suppressed to the lowest level.

There are also differences among people who practice martial arts. Generally speaking, Wolf's Den is more inclined towards assassins rather than warriors.

After all, there is not much need for head-on combat in the Wolf's Lair.

Silently walked towards Shadow Wolf's back.

Shadow Wolf might be wearing armor, but it was worn under a coat, but his neck was actually exposed.

All it takes is one strike...

The battle ahead was raging. Though muskets continued to fire, close combat had already begun. For a moment, the mercenaries, relying on their superior individual combat abilities, seemed to be at a disadvantage.

Of course, this is just an appearance. Truly experienced people can see that the advantage in numbers and firepower will determine the outcome of this battle.

The other side has no chance of breaking through.

Of course, there is no problem in dragging a few people down with you.

The fox wolf raised the swift sword in his hand and lunged forward, stabbing directly at Thomas' neck.

The movement was as fast as lightning, but without making any sound.

A feeling of joy suddenly surged in my heart. As long as this sword hits the target, the task will be accomplished.

Unfortunately, at the moment when the swift sword finally pierced the opponent, Shadow Wolf took a leisurely step to the side.

Just dodged it.

The fox wolf stabbed the air with his sword, and was horrified. He immediately put away his sword and retreated, but did not launch a second attack immediately.

Instead, he kept the sword in a state of being about to draw but not yet drawing it.

If the sneak attack fails, enter the second mode immediately.

That is to attract the prey's attention as much as possible from the front and leave the opportunity for a sneak attack to your companions.

The classic tactic of using the majority to defeat the minority can be called the wolf pack tactic.

Thomas turned around and chuckled.

"You finally can't hold it in anymore?!" He looked at the fox wolf with a mocking smile and slowly drew out his sword.

"How can I let you go after humiliating me like this?" the fox wolf said without batting an eyelid. "Even if you're a special envoy, don't expect anything good! Even if the Wolf Lord himself came, he wouldn't tolerate your behavior."

"I have so many witnesses, don't even think about it..."

"Oh, and the Wolf Lord?" Thomas interrupted with a sneer. "Don't bother. I already know your tricks. Do you think I don't understand your curses?"

"Curse? What curse?!"

"You do not know?"

"I don't know anything. I'm resisting with my sword now because of the insult you just gave me!"

"Okay, okay, don't think..." Thomas took a step towards the other person.

The violent wolf rushed up from the side, the iron wolf had already circled to the other side, and the one-eyed wolf quietly circled behind Thomas.

Surrounded on all sides.

Seeing that the time had come, the fox wolf swung his sword and attacked without hesitation.

Four against one! Surrounded from all sides, attacked together. This is the so-called "closed door and beating the dog" mode.

Suddenly, a sharp blade pierced straight into her chest from her back, and the tip of the blade emerged from her chest.

The stinging pain from the blade instantly interrupted all her thoughts and actions.

Her mind was blank, and she could only watch Thomas coming towards her and easily breaking out of the encirclement.

"Leave it to you, Boris," Shadow Wolf said to the man behind her.

"Leave it to me." A male voice answered from behind.

With a "puff" sound, the man exerted force in his hand, pulled the Damascus knife out of her body, and then faced the three people.

The fox wolf's body collapsed to the ground helplessly.

From the corner of his eye, he could just see how the other three were easily defeated.

It wasn't a battle at all, but a one-sided massacre.

A trace of despair flashed in the fox wolf's eyes, and she finally realized that the other party was well prepared.

Or rather, they were teasing her from the very beginning!

Thomas came over and stood in front of the fox.

"How...how...could you..." Fox Wolf struggled to ask. "You don't have...any...evidence..."

"Ah, I should say that you made a mistake from the very beginning." Thomas looked at the other party jokingly.

"What... thing?"

"You think I'm looking for evidence?" Thomas spread his hands. "But I don't need any."
