"Tch. It seems we're not too late." In his voice was a bit of regret. Seeing that the 4,000 besieged soldiers from three sides were still holding out, Fairus knew their condition was not good.
"All the cavalry, let's party and save them." The smile of Farius.
"These are..!"
"The..!" The soldiers and some players followed.
This is the second variable that Merton does not take into account. For an hour he observed, looking for clues to the presence or absence of the reserve troops prepared by the enemy. He concluded that there was no reserve force, because until the last second the left wing of the enemy infantry was suppressed, no reinforcements came.
He never expected, the political situation in the Rockhelm fortress was rather unique. Thus, there were two commanders who came to the battlefield who did not have a good relationship. One commander waits for the failure of the other, to gain recognition as a hero after coming to the rescue.
The 2,000-step cavalry troops leveled four to five plus 500-man equestrian players were like lightning striking on a clear day. The goblin army did not take into account the enemies coming at the most unexpected moment.
Seeing the enemy cavalry ready to hit the back of the goblin army, Merton gritted his teeth. He had never felt cheated like this moment. When victory is in sight, new variables come distracting. He then ordered the goblins to prepare for the welcome.
The shaman goblins then issued their attack skill ice ball towards the cavalry. The attacks had little effect on the cavalry, as they were of a higher level, few of them were exposed to slow.
When the cavalry force led by Fairus hit the back of the goblin army, the formation of the goblin army split open. The strength that the cavalry showed was enormous. The fear quickly spread amidst the goblin army. There was nothing they could do to stop this cavalry army.
.......
Like fish in a river, they freely destroyed the goblin army. Since the 20,000 goblin troops were divided by three to encircle the reinforcements from the core forces, Merton could not do much.
Had all 20,000 goblin troops been in one formation, perhaps Merton could have locked up this cavalry army. But with the army divided into three, Merton did not have much choice.
.......
Leo saw the goblin formation attacking them chaotic, suspecting that the cavalry troops had arrived.
"The cavalry squad has arrived, don't give the goblins a chance to manoeuvre, press them!"
The troops led by Leo who had been defending and then began to attack the goblin army. Their direction of attack was a formation in the middle that was chaotic due to the attack of the cavalry troops.
.......
Swuss...
Swuss..
One by one the goblin warriors died with a single attack from Farius. Tachi —katana longer— his slashing goblin warrior like a knife cutting tofu, fast and neat. Farius who had a level 6 like bully killed a level 2 warrior casually.
"Dull. Let's give me more resistance."
Farius then saw 150 shaman and Merton goblins taller than the goblins around 50 meters away. Once upon a time, Farius knew the tall goblin was Merton.
"Commander of the enemy forces there, let's finish this war as soon as possible, by killing it."
Farius then led the cavalry to Merton's quarters.
.......
He handed the command of the troops here to his aide and then cast a spell for some time. Then the ring on his finger let out a light that covered his entire body and he disappeared.
After Morton disappeared, his aide led the shaman goblins raining down on the cavalry soldiers and shouted something with goblin language. The goblin warriors were like possessed after hearing that, they no longer attacked regularly, but attacked without reason.
4,000 soldiers led by Leo were again pressed, goblins who seemed crazy attacked them ferociously. An infantryman after killing a goblin had no time to break was attacked again by another goblin, then a goblin jumped on his head, and another attacked his leg. The fellow soldiers fared similarly, 3 to 5 goblins attacking them simultaneously. After one was killed, the other goblins filled that void. If their situation before the arrival of the cavalry was a nightmare, this time it was hell.
Leo who saw his side getting desperate, shouted, "All hold on! Give up your strength to survive! We're dealing with this together."
"Defend...!"
"Don't give up...!"
.......
"Ares, everything's recovered. We can leave at any time." Dika says.
"Ok, let's go. This time our target is goblin slinger on the left wing of the goblin army." Ali boarded his ibex, and waited for a while everything went up.
After all boarding their respective mounts they returned to the rear of the goblin army.
"Sakuya, how are the conditions in each terrain?" Since resting, Ali asked Sakuya to monitor the condition of each terrain. Ali needed that information to take the next step.
"The surprising thing happened. Merton has disappeared from the left wing. The goblin army there blindly attacked the reinforcements and cavalry. The casualties of the Rockhelm army began to fall. But the number of goblins dropped rapidly.
In the core army, Commander Nero and his troops had already started to suppress the core goblin army. The casualties of the goblin army fell in a fast time.
On the right wing is still balanced. The role of goblin slinger is very visible here. As the infantry began to suppress the goblin army, they were hit with stones by the slinger goblins, thus weakening their attacks. Deadlock finally happened.
But if the Infantry core forces manage to repel the goblin core army, sooner or later the goblin's left wing will be destroyed."
"You hear that? If we succeed in destroying the goblin slinger unit, the victory will be won faster." Ali said out loud.
Rain but hesitated that this attack would be as successful as it was, "Are they not going to be more vigilant? They certainly learned from the mistake of putting too few goblin warriors behind."
Ali smiled, "Don't you hear that right-wing forces pressured them, that only means one thing. Their strength decreases with time. What do you think we have but they don't have now?"
"Cavalry?" A player answered.
"There was nothing from there either. Goblin leader?" Others argue.
"Surely this is quite fatal, but it doesn't seem like they've become chaotic after losing their leader." Ali gave us a clue.
"The shaman goblins, right? As there was no support from them, the goblin army in the core and left-wing forces grew weaker. But I can't guess the reason. Aren't their numbers limited, how important is their role? They can't cure all goblins." Rain says.
"I think it's because what they're healing is an elite goblin. If the commander of the goblin army is the brain, they are the spine. Furthermore, when attacking, the elite goblin targets first! I think this will reduce the difficulty of the next operation." Ali explained.
"Ares, it looks like the conditions in the goblin core army are changing again." Sakuya said seriously.
