Ch. 21-To Camp Raider
Gaia year 1, month 1, day 20.
At the military camp school, fifty militias had been gathered in their teams. Standing on a platform that was temporarily set up, Ouyang Shuo began pre-battle mobilization.
“Soldier, I, Village Lord Shanhai, will call you! Five days ago, a robber camp was discovered in our territory! They are our enemies. There are some of them and they are well equipped! We have fewer soldiers and our weapons are not as good. If you're afraid, stand up now, and you don't have to go.
“My soldiers, remember this! From the moment you enter the barracks, you are no longer the earth-bound farmer, you break your ties with your past! You who? You are a specially selected warrior in Shanhai, and the mission of the warrior is to defend their territory! Now, the villagers see you, their children are watching you! Whether you will become a worm or a dragon, it all depends on this battle! Are you scared!?”
“No fear!”
All the militias were screaming back together, none of them were cowards.
“Do you have the confidence to win?”
“We have!”
“Very good! We're gonna start! ”
Under General Shi's leadership, the militia left the barracks in an orderly fashion. Within four days, not only were the militia teams fully recruited, but they were all also brought to a maximum rank of 10. Ouyang Shuo also went with them to train, and his level also reached 14. Just this morning, the soldiers responsible for overseeing the robber camp had relayed some information. Today, in the early hours of the morning, the two robber leaders had taken twelve elite robbers and twenty ordinary robbers and led them out to plunder.
Suddenly, the strength of the robber camp was cut in two. Faced with such a good opportunity, Ouyang Shuo would naturally not let him go. Immediately, he summoned a full militia, and went straight to the robber camp. Of course, even with so many people leaving, the robber camp was still comparable in strength to the militia team. In order to reduce his casualties, Ouyang Shuo knew that he had to resort to some tactics.
He plans to have San Gouzi lead a militia force, pretend to be migrants, and lure some of the robbers out of the camp. The rest of the militia would wait in an ambush by a small hill three kilometers from the camp. Half an hour later, the militia reached the site of the ambush, quickly moving into position.
Ouyang Shuo waved in front of San Gouzi, patted his shoulder, and said,
“Don't be too close to being chased by their cavalry! Remember, don't get too close, they can see everyone approaching within a thousand meters. ”
San Gouzi is one of the fastest and most intelligent militias. At this moment, not only was he not afraid, but also extremely excited.
“Baginda, rest assured. Being the bait, I'm great at it, heh heh! ”
Ouyang Shuo kicked him, smiled, and said,
“Brat, see if you can do it, get out of here!”
San Gouzi gave him a wide smile before setting off with the other nine militias in disguise. First they had to take a detour to the side, and then pretend to come from the opposite direction so that it seemed they were out of the wild. Otherwise, it would be too easy to reveal their origins.
The bandits could survive in the wilderness, and hence they would not be easily dragged out. Planning an attack while thinking the enemy leader was stupid, it was really stupid. Twenty minutes later, San Gouzi's troops came within a thousand meters of the raider camp, and entered the field of vision of the guard on duty. The guard looked at a small group of refugees, and did not think too much about it.
He quickly descended to report that there was a line of ten fat little sheep that had walked into their hands, not far from the camp.
The great leader of the camp was busy enjoying a woman, and hearing that it was only ten people, he impatiently snapped, saying,
“Go. It's not worth my time. Tell Zhao Liu to deal with them. ”
Zhao Liu was an elite robber, and after receiving the order, looked extremely excited. He led the other four robbers on horseback and they rode out of the camp. San Gouzi was smart, just within reach of the robber camp before stopping a thousand meters away. Pretending to recognize what the camp really was, with a panicked face, the entire army turned around and ran. Zhao Liu, seeing the frightened appearance of the small horde, laughed. Not only did he not race to catch up, but he slowed down, hastily chasing after San Gouzi. He is ready to play the game of cat and mouse, and get the fun of this fragile group of survivors.
Soon, the two groups of people became visible to Ouyang Shuo. He could see the joking expression on Zhao Liu's face, and thought to himself, You bastard who thinks he controls life and death, you will pay for your arrogance with your blood. When the robbers were a hundred meters away from the hillside, the militia rushed out of hiding as they began their assault.
Everyone was in a unified formation, both hands on their javelins as they rushed together and threw them at the robbers. General Shi stood to the side, bowing and the arrow in his hand, Shou! General Shi's arrow shot Zhao Liu off his horse.
The robbers had no time to react before they were stabbed by 40 militia javelins like hedgehogs. With the victory of their first battle naturally came a moral wave.
Ouyang Shuo arranged for Lin Yi to take some people and clean up the booty, and make sure all the robbers were dead. Since everyone used their javelins directly against the robbers, only one in five horses was injured. Other than horses, the most useful loot was five bows. Ouyang Shuo looked at their stats.
Name: Ordinary Horse (black iron level)
Weight: 50 kg Speed: 30 km/day
Consumption: 3 units of grain/day
Evaluation: This barely qualifies as a war horse.
——-
Name: Ordinary Wooden Bow (black iron level)
Length: 1.2 meters
Range: 150 meters
Ouyang Shuo immediately arranged for the five horses to be brought back to the village by the two militia members. The five bows were quickly given to the five sergeants. Unfortunately, except for Lin Yi and Zhang Daniu, who both knew basic archery, no one else had ever touched a bow before. Quickly clearing the battlefield, Shuo's troops wasted no time and went straight to the base camp.
Ouyang Shuo took full advantage of the fact that the camp had no time to react before their attack arrived. With its timing set, the balance of power has been tilted. There were twenty elite robbers. Twelve had left, five were already dead, the ones left in the camp had at most 3 elite robbers, they would not cause much concern anymore.
Before the fight, Ouyang Shuo secretly told General Shi to let Lin Yi deal with the leader of the robber camp after the battle began. General Shi's main task is to use his bow and kill the surviving elites, then protect the militia during the battle, to reduce the number of casualties. Three hundred meters from the camp, General Shi, riding his horse, took his bow and instantly shot down two guards.
Taking the opportunity, Ouyang Shuo ordered the larger army to move forward quickly, rushing into the robber camp. Finding outsiders rushing to their camp before they could gather together, the people inside immediately panicked.
General Shi rushed forward, only a humanoid killing machine, no one could oppose him. Driven by his example, the morale of the militia reached its peak. With General Shi leading them, they were not afraid of ordinary bandits. Instead, staggered under the surprise attack on their camp and General Shi's unstoppable aura, the morale of the bandits plummeted.
At that moment, the bandit lieutenant finally put on his armor, and carrying a huge axe, rushed out into battle. Lin Yi looked at him once, without any further orders from Ouyang Shuo, directly charged at the robber and pulled him over. The two were quite evenly matched, but one had an axe, and the other danced with a spear. That is an old saying, an inch out of reach is an inch closer to death. Seeing the two fighting, it was clear to see what was about to end.
In less than twenty rounds, Lin Yi made use of the flaw in another form, and as fast as lightning pierced through the huge robber through the middle of his chest. Seeing their leader being killed by Lin Yi, the other bandits attempted to break away from the battle, scatter, and flee. Unfortunately, the camp was not big, and there was nowhere to run. The sergeants and their troops hunted them down one by one and killed them. As for the three elite robbers, they had long been killed by General Shi. The battle started quickly and ended quickly.
After the battle, the militia team sustained two serious injuries, and 12 minor injuries. Fortunately, no one died. The two seriously injured, even if healed, might never be able to fight on the battlefield again. Ouyang Shuo could only reluctantly arrange for them to retire. Twelve who had minor injuries, after using the metal lacerations medicine, and a few days of rest, they would be fine. Through the destruction of the robber camp, Ouyang Shuo's level rises like a rocket straight to 18.
He took the opportunity to look at his own stats.

While Shuo was looking at his stats, General Shi directed the clearing of the battlefield.
In the game, NPCs would not come back to life, and their bodies would not last long. Usually when an NPC died, their bodies would stay for about an hour or so.
During this period of time, if one were to take care of a corpse, they could be buried in a cemetery. Otherwise, their fate would be the same as these bodies, eventually becoming all white and disappearing. It reflects an easy-to-use design in the game. Otherwise, with the thousands killed after the war at the end of the game, it would be terrifying.
With the capture of the robber camp, the amount of confiscated spoils was overwhelming, but he had no current statistics. Another thing in the camp was the number of women and children, which Ouyang Shuo was prepared to bring back to his village. There were 32 women and 3 children, a total of 35. These women and children were basically kidnapped by robbers and taken to serve them. These people can not only rapidly increase the population of their territory, but also increase the population structure to a certain extent.
In the early days of the system, most of the immigrants who entered were men. The system logically decided that for migrants, of course stronger adult men would be able to survive easier. Most of the elderly, weak women, and children could not survive in the wilderness. As for bringing these women back to the village, it did not force them to marry and have children. Ouyang Shuo would not interfere in such matters, everything would be determined by the villagers themselves. As master, what he could do was ensure that they were not discriminated against on his land, while also ensuring their personal safety and freedom.
