"Sir!" accompanied by the dense sound of horses\' hoofs, the two centaurs galloped towards Richard like the wind. The sweat from the lower body had soaked their fur into dark brown, and panted loudly: "fifteen miles northwest, a large number of enemies are coming, and there are cavalry!"

"Finally, I can\'t wait."

Richard waved them back. These Centaur recruits are skilled as scouts, and the intelligence value they find is limited. It\'s not clear how many cavalry, how many infantry, and whether there are powerful units.

The bleak and low horn sounded on the wooden building, and Gaoshan castle began to mobilize urgently.

The swords and guns came out of the scabbard, the armor was on the body, the heavy footsteps were noisy, and there seemed to be a chill in the warm wind.

With the help of the merchant servants, Richard put on three layers of heavy armor, the innermost layer was wrapped with lock armor, the middle was the plate chain armor produced by the system, and the outer layer was covered with large armor, which was completely armed to the teeth.

"Lord Richard, I have studied systematic military courses. What is your battle plan and do you need mercenaries to cooperate?" the solemn atmosphere of Gaoshan Castle also infected Anne, who was worried about the coming war.

"First put two rounds of arrows and kill more than a dozen. Then take a wave and kill 70 or 80, and the rest will naturally collapse. At this time, they will follow and kill." Richard said while adjusting his armor.

"Is this the plan?" Anne\'s eyes seemed to be looking at the madman.

"Otherwise?" Richard tightened his waist strap and stepped out of the wooden building.

The three layers of armor weighed at least 300 pounds, enough to break the spine of the pack horse, but his legs and feet were as flexible as anyone.

"Boss." Gunther grinned in a huge exaggerated ox horn helmet, and behind him was a fierce and murderous barbarian warrior.

"My Lord." Hutt stroked his chest and luggage. The Centaurs next to him held long bows and hung two pots of arrows around his waist.

At this moment, the gap between recruits and veterans was undoubtedly revealed - the barbarians were all calm and calm, and several Centaur herdsmen had been kicking their hooves in turn, obviously a little nervous.

Richard looked around and nodded in silence.

"Line up right here."

The hills extend to a large area around them with slight slopes. It\'s a fool not to take advantage of this terrain. The effect of gravity is very advantageous for the defense,

The waiting time before the war was always very long. Richard sat on the Mazar and waited for nearly two hours until the bandits slowly emerged from the horizon.

"There are more than 500, nearly 600 of them," Annie whispered, reminding her that her elvish blood made her far more discerning than others.

The total strength of Gaoshan castle is only 70, and even with the combat mercenaries, it is less than 90. Simple calculation shows that the other party has a full six times the number advantage!

Under such an extreme disadvantage, Richard also planned to hold the mercenaries as the reserve team and only used the mountain Fort as the main attack. The comparison of forces between the two sides is actually 70 to 500, and the gap is further widened to eight times.

Annie could not help holding her clothes, and her hands were full of sweat. According to her understanding of the military, such a wide gap is even enough to support a tragic siege. I don\'t know where the Lord of Gaoshan castle has such a cool confidence.

"HMM." Richard squinted at the approaching enemy.

Frankly speaking, he was a little surprised, not just because of the large number of people.

It\'s different from the typical wild fighting style of the previous group of all people. The bandits have been roughly divided by arms.

There are seven or eight werewolf cavalry riding a wolf in front of the left and right, running back and forth along the direction of the big army.

Werewolves are a very aggressive race. They are used to domesticating wolves as partners and mounts. The connection of blood makes the werewolf and the wolf often have a very high tacit understanding. They are alert by nature and have a keen sense of smell. They are the best choice for Scouts.

The center is a huge and bloated infantry group. Among a large number of jackals, werewolves and savages, there are also a large number of big goblin soldiers who are full-time responsible for maintaining discipline, so that the whole formation will not disintegrate in the process of moving forward.

What\'s more surprising is that the front row of infantry held a variety of shields.

Although it was not difficult to see that these shields were made of door panels and their defense was very worrying, Richard wiped his eyes twice before he dared to believe it.

At this time, even if a few archers drill out after the array and prepare for two rounds of fire, he won\'t be surprised, because there must be knowledgeable robbers.

Although it is very poor, it can be regarded as the embryonic form of an army.

"What shall we do?" Annie found that the barbarian in the front looked the most indifferent, and the mercenary in the back looked the most pale.

"Ready to meet the enemy." Richard put down a word and trotted to meet the wind chasing beast.

His movements were very light, but the weight of the three layers of armor was not in vain. Every step left a lot of footprints behind him.

The advancing bandit team was obviously paused.

On the back of the dark iron eating armadillo sat a knight in three layers of armor, as if made of steel. When he moved a little, it was a sour sound of iron friction.

The mountain like beast turned slowly, and the steel knight on his back grabbed a huge four blade Lance. The heavy cavalry gun was not more difficult to control than a single knife in his hand. The knight waved it twice, and the dull air breaking howl made people frightened.

Just standing there without moving, people can\'t help imagining what a landslide will be if they launch an assault.

Annie didn\'t understand why Gaoshan castle could maintain morale under the huge military disadvantage. Now she vaguely understood that this heavy cavalry can withstand 100 infantry according to the most conservative estimation.

The Earth Spirit who maintained military discipline hit the stopped robbers with a wooden stick, so that the whole military array began to move forward slowly again.

"God gave them a good chance to live, but they didn\'t know how to cherish it." Richard buckled his helmet and his face was covered by a ferocious iron plate. The two legs clamped hard, and the heavy iron eating armadillo stepped away.

On both sides of him were closely followed barbarian warriors, who together formed a V-shaped assault arrow, and Richard was the sharpest sharp edge of the V-shaped.

The arrow came earlier than them.

The Centaurs gathered in the rear, raised their arms high and threw feather arrows into the robber array. The frequency of their archery is not fast, but the rhythm is very stable. Each time the bow strings shake together, it will cause a sad howl.

The robbers could not imagine that they had specially prepared shields to defend against long-range attacks, but there was nothing they could do with the arc shot of the Centaur.

Those arrows dripped over the top of the shield players, but dived into the array like a falcon, and in an instant, they put down more than a dozen robbers who thought they were very safe!
