Zongman: Start by becoming the savior of the elves!

Although it was a severe winter with white snow and flying catkins, Nuobalu was still hot all over due to nervousness. Unable to bear the damp and uncomfortable feeling, she took off her armor and wore only a thin silk dress. Although she only had a sword at her waist for command, her expression was as heavy as the sword.

Of course, this doesn't mean she doesn't have the will to fight, but it is true that she has no confidence of winning.

Since the savior came to the dark elves this year, things have gone from bad to worse on the forest elves side. Especially after the high elves officially crowned the savior as king, nearly half of the lords here defected to the other side. Several important castles on the border also fell, and even lost a lot of capable generals.

During this period, the assassination incident in Otoko Castle also occurred, which caused the reputation of the great elder Noru in the entire Bijuu elves to become like a fragile dandelion blown away by the wind to the untouchable sea of the sky. The order to summon lords from all over the country to come to Tianshen Mountain Castle to defend the king has not been responded to so far, and even the capable Phyllis has abandoned herself and hid in her own castle.

As for Mizili, although she was busy every day, Noru couldn't figure out what she was busy with. The forest elf who used to take care of her like an older sister seemed to have become a different person, exuding a mature aura that she was not familiar with.

After a series of defeats and the loss of territory, Noru felt a strong sense of loneliness. She realized that it was impossible for her to support the fate of the forest elves by herself.

The soldiers' prayers flowed into Noru's ears. They knelt on the ground with fear in their hearts, offering their prayers to the other side of the night sky.

At this time, the clock rang. It's time to change the night shift. I've been talking for a long time, so I'll just say one more sentence and end it. The thought of a forest elf observer standing in the watchtower at the city gate disappeared because of the clock that never stopped.

Immediately afterwards, the ringing of the bells in the watchtowers facing southwest and south of Tenjin Mountain City resounded throughout the entire Tenjin Mountain City as if it were a conditioned reflex.

This bell sound means "The main force of the Dark Elf Army... has appeared"

It can be clearly seen that there is no obstruction within the range of more than 400 meters. Although there used to be obstacles such as low hills and groves here, when the outer wall of the city was built, a large-scale land leveling movement was implemented as part of the defensive fortifications, and this place was razed to the ground. Only in the distance at the end of the line of sight, in the depths of the vast grassland, at the limit of the line of sight where obstructions such as hills gradually become denser, that abyss where only starlight seems to remain seems to have moving black shadows.

"Boss! Zhong N:./"

In this darkness, it was impossible for the forest elves to see the true face of the enemy from such a long distance. Because of this, only those orc soldiers with the best eyesight noticed the murderous intent coming from afar.

"War! It's begun! Report to the higher-ups immediately! Everyone, get to your fighting positions!"

"Got it! Boss! You guys have heard it all! The joyful and bloody hunt is about to begin! Show us all your weapons and all the precious skills you have hidden!"

If the enemy is really a mixed army, they should spend a lot of time on arranging the formation. This is especially true if there are various races. However, this is also the case for Tianshen Mountain City. Since it is an army, everyone needs to spend some time to make adequate preparations.

Soon, the Great Elder Noru chased the orc commander Org to the top of the watchtower at the west gate of Tianshen Mountain City. From here, he could have a good view of all the mountains and see the entire Lin Rui army walking on Qiuye Street.

The morning star has risen in the sky, and the dark morning light has torn open a corner of the gloomy starry sky. The dark elf expeditionary force walking on the autumn leaf street has officially appeared in front of the defenders of Tianshen Mountain City.

This army was not moving as fast as Noru had imagined. They were dressed in scarlet armor, with the Red Cavalry as their vanguard and the Hobbits and Pegasus Knights as their air cover. They appeared on this stage-like battlefield like centipedes crawling in the mud.

The slower the enemy's actions, the more time the enemy has to concentrate its forces and weapons and mobilize its troops, which is an ideal deployment for the defenders of Nauru. But the orc commander Org doesn't think so. The commander of such a large-scale and complex army cannot be an ignorant person. The savior must know that giving the enemy time is unprofitable. Moreover, it is still dark now, and the next battle is advantageous to the orcs with better vision, even if a bonfire is lit.

Orger stared at Lin Rui's army four hundred meters away.

Should we really say that he is worthy of being the savior? Not only was the army organized by race, but it was also organized taking into account many factors such as the weapons and tactics held by each race, as well as the characteristics of the race.

It was a very reasonable military formation. I'm afraid the elves and exiled orcs under his rule had been completely united under his banner. The dark elves and exiled orc tribes were no longer a pile of loose sand, but had become a solid stone.

Even though these elves and orcs are all extremely weak women.

"It's not very clear. Hey guys, have you seen the savior?"

"...No, we haven't found any enemy general yet!"

Orger and his orcs didn't notice Lin Rui's presence. But he must be on the battlefield, otherwise it would be difficult to coordinate the army.

"He can't hide forever. He will definitely show up on the front line."

Although they were all women, the commanders of both the elves and the orcs with strong fighting power would show off their military strength. This was the best time for Orger to work.

He gripped the longbow tightly in his hand.

This is a recurve composite longbow infused with critical strike-specific magic. Not only that, it also incorporates enchantments for many skills such as "silent", "invisibility", "shadow", "invisibility", "piercing", "spear", and ultra-long distance. It is simply a powerful bow specialized in sniping.

As long as Lin Rui's army starts to attack the city, Orger will definitely seize the opportunity to snipe the commander of this army and end the battle.

however

"The whole army stops advancing!"

At around 8 o'clock in the morning, Lin Rui issued an order to stop the advance to the entire army through the messenger beside him.

The soldiers under the command of the Dark Elves, Leopard-Headed Men, Gryphon Men, Al People Half-Spider Men, Hobbits, High Elves, Forest Elves and others stopped almost at the same time, and their actions of standing at attention shook the earth.

Looking at the Tianshen Mountain City right in front of him, Lin Rui did not immediately order his soldiers to form a battle array to attack the city. Instead, he untied the water bag made of sheep stomach tied around his waist and brought it to his mouth.

The water bag is filled with goat milk, which is more nutritious and easier to digest than cow's milk. It is perfect for nourishing the stomach for soldiers who cannot eat on time.

"Master, if you give me 1 men, I will capture Tianshen Mountain Castle and capture that guy Noru before noon."

Seeing Lin Rui's hesitation, Eluda, who always charged at the forefront, mistakenly thought that he was worried about the difficult-to-attack and easy-to-defend Tianshen Mountain City, so she patted her proud spindle-shaped breasts and volunteered to sign the military order.

"Oh, search group: er, 0 private 3: 牾, 疲克愫义严章郑 have a good siege strategy? Eluda?"

Lin Rui didn't know why Eluda was so confident. He thought she already had a plan to attack the city, but the other party's answer disappointed him.

"No, I just saw the enemy hiding in the city, only caring about their own safety, and completely ignoring their compatriots and fields outside the city, so I thought they might be afraid of us. After all, the master has the title of the King of Elves. Going against the master means that you are a traitor to the elves, right?"

I didn't expect her to come up with any ideas, and besides, the fact that Elda could consider that "if the name is not right, the words will not flow" is a big improvement on her part, isn't it? I should be relieved.

Lin Rui comforted himself in this way.

Fortunately, among all the generals under his command, only Elda had this idea of fighting to the death. Generals like Diruwa, Chloe, and Milia who were able to handle things calmly just thought it was a joke after hearing Elda's words.

"Duroit! Where does this street lead?"

Facing the gazes of the generals in the harem, Lin Rui steadily spread out the map, put his finger on the map, and asked Diluwa. Diluwa, who had memorized the geography of the surrounding area of Tianshen Mountain City in advance, did not even have time to hesitate, and directly answered, "That is the way to the Bijuu City under the control of the orcs."

"Pass the order down, take the southeast route and bypass Tianshen Mountain City!" Lin Rui's order was very straightforward, and he didn't even have time to think, as if he had decided to do so before attacking Tianshen Mountain City.

“““Eh?””

Chapter 187: Fierce Fight

Even Lin Rui's harem retainers were puzzled as to why their master suddenly ordered the army to change its direction, not to mention Noru and Orge in Tenjinyama Castle.

What on earth was that man thinking? Was he planning to bypass Tenjin Mountain Castle and attack Changchuan Castle? Wasn't he afraid that the defenders of Tenjin Mountain Castle would suddenly attack him from behind and stab him in the ass when he left?

"What does this mean? What on earth is that human cub thinking? Hey! Are you scared? I, Great Elder Noru, am here!!"

Seeing that Lin Rui's army had no intention of forming a battle array to attack the city, they instead held up their battle flags in front of her, the great elder, as if they were on parade. They deliberately made a big circle in front of Noru, and then turned to the southeast street.

Wengqi's troops did not form a battle array to attack the city, but rather a marching formation.

0 Noru was completely stunned. She stood on the city gate tower and shouted loudly at Lin Rui's army who were moving away from her and boldly leaving their backs to her.

It wasn't just Noru who was confused. Even the battle-hardened orc officer Org couldn't figure out what the enemy wanted to do. However, compared to the panicked Noru, he, as a general, was able to remain calm, showing the demeanor of a great commander.

After all, once the commander panics, it will give the soldiers a very negative impression. Only by staying confident at all times can the soldiers boldly follow him.

But his ability was limited to this. Orger was not a person who was good at thinking. After racking his brains for a long time, he could only come to the conclusion that "the enemy might want to bypass us and attack Longship City directly."

The careless words made Noru suddenly enlightened. Yes, the enemy had no need to spend time and manpower on the Tianshen Mountain City, which had only 1 defenders. For the so-called King of Elves, the orcs were the most important targets. It was reasonable for the savior who had obtained the title of "King of Elves" to list the Longship City occupied by the orcs as the target of attack, wasn't it?

Moreover, as long as Changchuan City is captured, Tianshenshan City will be alone and unable to hold on. At that time, I am afraid I will really choose to surrender to the savior.

Even if the enemy cannot take Changchuan City, they will not lose. At least Xiongshan City, a key border defense point, has been taken by them. They can start the war after the spring and march to the foot of Tianshenshan City. If the cavalry is fast enough, they can run back and forth in one day, which is much faster than going from Yizi City now.

This was not the most troublesome thing for Lu. If Urakami really defeated the savior, would they, as the victorious party, tolerate him choosing to defend the city? Would he be abandoned by his allies?

I don't know, it's really hard to say. Then again, with the enemy marching like this, aren't they really afraid that we will sneak out of the city and attack them from behind?

"That man obviously looks down on you, Noru!!"

It was Mizuli who suddenly interrupted to speak.

In fact, Mizili, who only received the orders of "monitoring Noru's movements" and "urging the defenders of Tianshen Mountain Castle to go to war", didn't know why Lin Rui made a sharp turn in front of Tianshen Mountain Castle. But her intuition told her that this was a trick by her savior master to deliberately attract Noru to fight.

If this is really the case, then if not now, when will it be better to provoke Noru?

"underestimate me?"

It can be said that she is worthy of being called Mizili. Having been with Noru for many years, she knows very well how to provoke this great elder. A simple and unintentional remark seemed to hurt Noru's self-esteem very accurately.

"That's right. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so bold to show my side and back to you, Noru. Isn't it obvious that I look down on you?"

“That human…actually looked down on me…actually looked down on me…looked down on me…He was just a human cub who had been born less than 20 years ago, yet he actually laughed at my hundreds of years of cultivation! How dare he…how dare he…how dare he…how dare he…how dare he…”

Noru's lips trembled, perhaps because she was angry. Her petite body was shaking and her gaze towards Lin Ruijun who was marching in front of the gate of Tianshen Mountain City became sharp. Even the orders she spoke became blurred as her body shook:

"All troops... all troops out... bite that man's tail! We must let that human cub know how powerful we forest elves are!"

"Oh!!!!!"

It seemed that both the forest elf soldiers and the orc soldiers were very angry at Lin Rui's open provocation. The shouting of tens of thousands of people alone was enough to shock any invading enemy.

Of course, the prerequisite is that her opponent cannot be someone as tactical as Lin Rui.

When Lin Rui received the news that the soldiers from Tianshen Mountain City were pouring out of the city and rushing towards the rear guard troops at the end of the team, his expeditionary force had already arrived at a place called Tianpo in the southeast of Tianshen Mountain City. As the name suggests, this is a slightly higher plateau, and the west slope is slightly higher and the east slope is slightly lower.

For example, 3, Wuzhong Znun: If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid he wouldn't choose to start a war with Noru in this place. After all, there is a saying that "So the method of using troops is: don't attack the high hills, don't go against the hills, don't follow the enemy who pretends to retreat, don't attack the elite soldiers, don't eat the bait, don't stop the retreating troops, leave gaps when besieging the troops, and don't press the desperate enemy. This is the method of using troops." It means "don't attack the enemy on high ground, don't attack the enemy with its back against the hills, don't chase the enemy who pretends to escape, don't attack the enemy with high morale, don't eat the bait, don't intercept the enemy who is eager to go home, leave gaps when besieging the enemy, and don't press the enemy who is in a desperate situation."

But today, in order to kill a large number of enemies, Lin Rui chose to do the opposite. He deliberately exposed his vulnerable back to the enemy, deliberately let Noru think that he had no intention of attacking Tianshen Mountain, deliberately left the high ground in the west to the enemy, and deliberately did not block the entrance and exit of the climbing platform.

As luck would have it, Noru fell into all four of these traps.

"The winner wins first and then fights. The loser fights first and then wins. Little Loli, you have to make sure you can win before you actually start fighting."

Looking at the 1 forest elves and orcs swarming in from Tianshen Mountain City, Lin Rui, while feeling relieved that his plan had succeeded, also laughed at the fact that the great elder did not have a single counselor loyal to her.

The cold of the night and the light of the morning competed for attention, and it looked like blood in the sky. The morning glow that gave people this ominous impression spread out a bright red sky behind Lin Ruijun.

The 2 Lin Rui troops were led in an orderly manner, which was certainly due to the organizational ability of General Diluwa. Of course, Lin Rui's charm and attraction that was enough to make everyone obey was also a major factor. Although he was like a tyrant who enjoyed wine and women, he took the elves and orcs in his generals for himself and favored them one by one, but everyone was willing to marry him and become his lover. Just like what was said in the biography of the elf savior, the Elf War Chronicle, which was written a hundred years later and specifically described this elf savior, "The savior has countless lovers, but everyone has only one savior."

Lin Rui stood in front of the formation, looking at the enemy from a distance. Diluwa retreated about half a horse's length behind him and stood by his side. Lin Rui's armor made a sound, and he turned around to look at Diluwa.

At this time, Noru's pursuit troops were just standing on the opposite high ground. Both the forest elves and the orcs were sweating and panting. After all, they had to seize the time and sneak a way in before Lin Rui's army completely left their sphere of influence. Of course, it would be best if they could capture the baggage troops on the dark elves' side.

However, neither Nauru nor his ally, the orc general Org, thought that they had been tricked by the enemy from the very beginning. Now standing in front of them were 2 Linrui soldiers who had been waiting for them for a long time in a fish-scale formation, holding the "Wind, Forest, Fire and Mountain" flag.

"The enemy is here!" Orc General Orger felt danger for the first time in his life.

"attack!"

Lin Rui waved the green bamboo in his hand which he used to direct, and a pure white halo appeared in front of his palm.

There are countless lines of light flowing in the halo, drawing complex geometric patterns.

This was the command skill he had used before, called "Rune Knight".

However, the light of the rune was not as dazzling as before. Because this time Lin Rui was restrained, he only played "horse shock" with Diluwa for a while.

Of course, the effect was not as strong as before, but even so, the 2 soldiers under Lin Rui's command almost simultaneously felt a strong sexual desire overflowing from their crotches on the battlefield. Driven by this strong physiological need, the soldiers seemed to be anesthetized and took steps at the same time, pressing down on the coalition forces of Noru and Orge like a mountain.

When the two armies were close enough to use bows and arrows, the first thing that happened was a bow and arrow battle.

The arrows were like hundreds of millions of locusts flying in the air. The arrows from both armies formed a strong wind that flew across the sky, and then fell to the ground like a torrential rain. It was a silver blood rain that brought endless death and pain. Both armies raised their shields to block the arrows, but once the arrows landed in the gaps between the shields, there was an immediate surge of wailing and groaning.

As the rain of arrows continued to fall, the distance between the two sides also narrowed. After the sky that was buried by the rain of arrows opened up, the warriors on both sides took down their shields and stared ahead. They were close enough to see each other's faces clearly.

Lin Rui stood at the front of the main army, raised his right hand high, and then swung it down vigorously. And Orger also made the same move in the Tianshenshan Army. At this moment, the meat grinder-like hand-to-hand combat began.

Among Lin Rui's troops, the one that attacked the enemy the fastest was the right wing composed of the High Elf Pegasus Knights and the Hobbits, with Chloe as the commander. The target was the orc troops deployed on the enemy's left wing. Chloe pointed her drawn sword to the sky and stood in front of the entire army, while her subordinates with spears and bows followed behind her. Two thousand pairs of wings stirred up the dust on the ground and rushed towards the enemy camp.

Chloe was not a member of the flying Pegasus Knights or the Hobbits, so she could not fly in the air. Her favorite thing was to ride a Hummer and wield a greatsword on the battlefield. However, on the battlefield, it was too abrupt for her, as a commander, to ride a unicorn on the ground while her soldiers were flying in the sky. Therefore, she asked the high elves for a Pegasus, and led the Pegasus Knights to hunt like hawks, constantly leaping into the enemy's formation and pecking at the lives on the ground.

The killing begins.

Every time the Pegasus landed, Chloe swung her heavy sword, and felt a strong response. The armor of the orc cavalry broke, and the blood from the eyeballs splashed from the victim's face. Before the dead fell to the ground, Chloe's sword drew a light track in the opposite direction at a faster speed, and the wrist holding the gun flew high into the air. Sharp and heavy slashes cut through the air, and the splashing human blood increased the heat of the atmosphere. The fallen knight was trampled by the hooves of the enemy and our own horses, and instantly turned into bloody pieces of meat. Soon Chloe's tall body was shrouded in blood mist, and every flash of the sword made the enemy's horses become masterless riders.

Chloe, charging ahead, not only chopped the orcs' bodies, but also crushed their courage and hostility. No matter whose followers you were, you were all consumed by fear and defeat, and your feet went weak. Chloe and her men quickly suppressed the orc soldiers, and the Nauru army's front line seemed to be collapsing from the left wing.

Noru remained calm. She judged that it was not the right time to send out the reserve troops. But in order to maintain the left wing that was about to collapse, she decided to send reinforcements. 1,500 cavalry and 2,000 infantry were deployed to the left wing. The commander was the orc commander Org.

The enemy's formation increased in thickness. Chloe shook off the blood on her sword and stared at the enemy with her brave eyes. She didn't intend to die easily on the battlefield, so she called her messenger and ordered a retreat. Soon after, more than a dozen horn flutes played the same tune.

The right wing of Lin Rui's army turned from advancing to retreating without any pause. Not only did they advance quickly, but they also retreated efficiently. A bloody blank appeared on part of the battlefield. While Lin Rui's army retreated, the Nauru army advanced rapidly. At this time, the main force in the middle, led by Diluwa and Eluda, with the Red Guards as the core, rushed forward and attacked the flank of the Nauru army.

Chapter 188: Fierce Fight

"The whole army attacks!"

Duluwa shouted as she waved her sword above her head. The sharpened blade shone like a silver wheel above the young soldiers' heads. The troops she led only a thousand cavalry and four thousand infantry, but they attacked the Noru army with amazing speed and momentum.

When Diluwa encountered the first enemy, he cut him off his horse without giving him a chance to fight. At the moment when they crossed each other, the forest elf knight was pierced through the jaw and fell to the ground. The sound of the armor hitting the ground was suppressed by the sound of the horse's hooves, and no one heard it.

The two armies slashed, pushed, and fought fiercely. Swords cut necks, spears pierced bodies, and axes smashed heads. Blood rushed into the warriors' nostrils, almost suffocating them. Duroy pierced the throat of the second man, and swung the blade horizontally, splitting the shoulder of the third man.

Lin Rui's army's connection was very clever, putting the Nauru army's left wing in danger. The Nauru army was lured by Chloe's retreat and protruded, and the right wing of the long column was attacked by Duroy.

The Nauru army was torn apart. It was like boiled mutton being cut in half by a thick blade, shattered front and back. Nauru, who saw this scene from afar, could not help but groan.

At this moment, thousands of soldiers appeared from the outer edge of the battlefield and began to erode the left rear of the Nauru army.

That was Milia's army. Recently, she had spent much less time with Lin Rui than when they were in Otoko Castle. Since Lin Rui had to prepare for the great expedition and his work became busy, he had reduced his time to favor his harem, not to mention Milia, the newcomer. But Milia not only did not complain, she was able to complete the mission that Lin Rui asked her to do.

The Nauru army, which had to fight hard with Duluwa, was surprised by the fierce attack from the rear and looked extremely embarrassed. The Nauru army's battle line was reduced in an instant. Blood, sparks and the sound of blades built a ruthless barrier on the left and right of their battle line. The Nauru army could not get rid of this obstacle.

The horses of the Nauru army neighed in grief and fell to the ground, the bodies of the riders thrown from the saddles. Sand and blood flew everywhere, and red and yellow patterns unfolded before the eyes of the soldiers. Blades collided, spears bit each other, and blood was sucked into the earth.

It was not just the veterinarians on the Nauru side who were caught in a tough battle. The main force also had a fierce conflict with the Red Guards under the command of Diluwa, causing serious losses.
