Lord of the Oasis

chapter four hundred and fifty seventh. mercenaries caught in infighting

Rolf rode his horse away, and the roar continued to echo on this plain.

This was an invigorating raid. For the light cavalry group, this was the best tactic. It could wipe out part of the enemy's strength without any precautions, and it was also a reflection of tactical value.

Now, those noble coalition troops are obviously not sleeping well!

no way.

They could not have imagined that on the plains and wilderness outside the Stone Pass, there is such a force of light cavalry, like a pack of wolves lurking in the dark, that can pounce at any time and deal them a severe blow!

If it's just a simple offensive and defensive battle, that's all.

A coalition of nobles that lacked light cavalry would not really go into the field.

Although the number of knights and servants of the nobles is close to 5,000 people, but these knights and knights and servants are the wealth of the nobles, how could they be consumed in this battle?

This is what they can rely on to talk. If they lose their military power, their final interests will also be reduced!

They are only pioneers after all.

Is the first bird.

The time to really wait for the split is still to come.

It is also those top nobles who do the big things and divide the spoils among their scars.

These nobles all understand the reason, especially when there are nearly 20,000 mercenary groups around, their own knight servants and recruited infantry are the only way to protect themselves!

How could a lowly mercenary be compared to the conscripts that he had worked so hard to cultivate?

So they didn't act rashly.

Not even a knight attendant went to pursue it.

Occasionally, some angry cavalry chased after him, and they were also light cavalry among the mercenaries.

They were all light cavalry formed by a group of horse bandits and robbers, willing to fight for a future for the bounty of the nobles, or to avenge their friends who were killed in the raid just now.

But the result is the same.

Without chasing too deep, they were killed by the elite desert robbers who returned to intercept them.

The heavy short javelin thrown is very powerful. After the spear tip pierces the leather armor, it can also cause fatal damage to the body. If it is for these mercenaries, it is tantamount to fatal injury, because there is not much convalescent environment, and also Without too many drugs, the fatality rate and sequelae after injury are even more terrifying than the nobles!

Nearly more than 200 mercenary cavalry chased not too far, and after more than 80 cavalry were killed, they all stopped their pursuit, restrained their horses, cursed a few words in exasperation, and returned.

There were chaotic sounds all over the village and beyond.

footsteps.

swearing.

and howling before death.

The number of mercenaries approaching 3,000+ suffered injuries of varying severity.

There are even a lot of people's injuries, which are caused by their own companions, just to run faster when escaping, or someone blocks their own route, so they brazenly wield a knife to kill.

In fact, many of the 800+ corpses were caused by cannibalism.

Rolf and his hussars did not have the tactical goal of killing people.

Rather, it caused riots.

It was the night before the attack, and their tactical goal was to demoralize.

As long as there is a riot, the mercenaries who have not slept or have not slept well all night have no strong morale at all, and continue to attack the Stone Pass, thus attracting pressure to Fatis on the side battlefield.

This is also the tactic agreed by the two sides, and it is an excellent tactic that complements each other.

Now the advantages of this tactic are also reflected.

in the mercenary's tent.

Riots started.

That's right.

It's a riot, not a riot.

In the previous raid, the act of drawing a knife on an allied army in order to escape finally caught his attention.

As more and more bitter masters began to talk to their friends, more and more mercenaries began to quarrel, clash, and even start duels with swords drawn, and even caused infighting among several mercenary groups!

Although mercenaries love money like life,

But also like to hold a group, especially in normal times.

This is the power of the team.

So the commotion quickly turned into turmoil.

More and more mercenaries began to draw their knives, confront each other, and even die in duels.

There are more and more grievances and hatreds, and those who usually dislike each other also take this opportunity to deliberately seek trouble, and even start to confront each other with swords, gnashing their teeth and cursing and fighting.

The turmoil quickly turned into infighting, which engulfed the entire mercenary camp.

Even the village has been implicated.

The nobles' infantry guarded the street entrances tightly and did not let anyone enter.

Those well-dressed nobles also put on their heavy armors, commanding the knights and servants, guarding carefully against the attacks of some mercenaries who were stunned and furious.

The entire village has been in chaos, and everyone seems to have forgotten the reason why they came here.

Hatred has enveloped everyone's heart.

No one was left out.

The sound of fighting continued.

On the contrary, the number was close to 1,000 before, and the mercenaries who planned to approach the Stone Pass first were not implicated.

After walking a short distance, they saw the direction of the camp behind them, and there was a sound of fighting. It seemed that some cavalrymen had raided the village, so they were so frightened that they hurried to take over the formation and used the dense formation to bring themselves a sense of security.

It's just that they were not impacted. Instead, at the camp at the rear, the sound of the fighting subsided and appeared more violently.

Someone even set fire to it!

The fire quickly swept through the tent colony outside the village.

The raging flames were in the hands of some furious mercenaries, and they completely became the trigger for igniting this area.

The fire was raging, but no one put out the fire. More and more mercenaries were involved in the attack and killing of the enemy, and even the mercenary groups that disliked each other blatantly chose to fight and fight frantically.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the mercenaries outside were stunned.

In fact, many of the mercenaries inside are the same.

Those shrewd people were collecting property, and they quickly fled towards the plain outside with their heads down.

The same is true of those who are timid and afraid of things, they quickly followed behind and left. The messy ones are like little lambs. They dare not stay here. Even if they escape, they can still have a chance to survive.

The team has already fallen into infighting, how could there be a chance to attack the Stone Pass?

The same goes for nobles.

They panicked and started withdrawing from the village with their troops.

Even the mercenaries who were at war in front of him directly let the knights and servants under him choose to kill them.

The fire has spread from the tent into the village, not to mention these noble knights, even the civilians who were originally driven to the corner, have begun to flee, because the fire has completely ignited the tent area with the help of the linen tent, There are also thatched huts and wooden houses in the village, all of which have fallen into a state of roaring burning.
