Chapter 67: Ratmen never mourn the dead (monthly ticket adds 26 updates)
The two troops of the kobolds and the swamp fishmen, under the command of Huo, rushed towards a certain location in the wetland.
The giant beasts soaring in the sky are still driving away the fleeing rat men in the swamp.
It seems that they are consciously driving the fleeing rat troops in a certain direction.
For this, the rat warlords hiding in the army naturally felt that something was wrong.
Being driven in a certain direction by the enemy is undoubtedly extremely dangerous.
But once a rat warlord tries to stand up and take command, the giant beast falling from the sky will take his life without hesitation.
Everything seems to be heading in the worst direction.
It’s just the rat-man commander who is mixed up in the rat-man army, the newly-appointed commander-in-chief.
Rat Zhan was not panicked about this.
"Just go for it, idiot, there will be a surprise waiting for you!"
………….
After the Battle of Old Qicheng.
Rat swarms are scattered throughout this area. Even though Rat Zhan once ran here and gathered his troops, because they did not stay too long, there were still a lot of rat people left active in this area.
However, Shu Zhan has already left with his large army, and these guys can essentially be considered abandoned.
And as time goes by, these abandoned rat men are quickly gathering into groups.
A single rat-man cannot survive in this harsh area, and the surviving rat-men can naturally only gather into groups.
But it is foreseeable that these abandoned poor guys will eventually disappear due to the annihilation of the Wetland Kingdom and the difficult survival conditions in this wetland.
Until a rat team led by a rat priest returned to the vicinity of Old Qicheng and quickly gathered these scattered rat troops.
With the addition of these abandoned poor guys, the team led by the rat priest suddenly expanded a lot.
Returning to the rat colony was also a relief for these poor abandoned guys.
Although what they didn't know was that this distinguished priest had returned to the enemy's hinterland, but he was not specifically here to save them.
On the contrary, the results may be completely opposite.
After simply determining the direction, this fanatical rat-man priest led the team around Old Qicheng with excitement, and then led the team straight towards the deeper parts of the wetland. And go.
………….
Although they were driven away by the black dragon beasts along the way, the rat army was still slowly evacuating this bad wetland.
Although it was greatly delayed.
Along the way, Rat Zhan didn't show his head, as if he had disappeared. Even the fire in the sky was a little doubtful that his guess was wrong.
Perhaps, the rat-man general did not mix with the rat-man army at all, but had left the army secretly with his personal guards.
But no matter what, now that preparations have been made, Huo is ready to completely leave the rat army in front of him.
The kobolds and swamp murlocs had already completed their rendezvous at the position given by the fire, and before the rat-man army could retreat, they were now blocking the last stretch of the rat-man army's escape.
The junction of wetland and forest.
Just waiting for the arrival of the Skaven army.
It seems that the outcome is doomed. How can this panicked, frantically driven rat army, which has been running for days, deal with an ambush?
What if the participants in this ambush include a dragon beast that the rat people cannot deal with at all?
It was obvious that an unprecedented defeat was about to happen.
On the edge of the forest and wetland.
The Rat Expeditionary Force, which was about to escape, stopped. The rats, who had been running wildly for several days, almost all had a heavy look of exhaustion on their faces, and there was a clear look in their eyes. Bloodshot.
The expeditionary force, which had just set off, under the leadership of Shu Zhan, was already in a state of disarray. Only about 20,000 of the originally huge number of 80,000 were left.
Countless ratmen were thrown into the wetlands during wars. Whether victory or defeat, they were always accompanied by death.
And most of the dead were ratmen.
Unknowingly, the number of rat warriors and young rat men who fell in this swamp may have been more than the total number of lizards, snakes, and kobolds in the Wetland Kingdom. .
A deep confusion echoed throughout the entire Skaven army at this moment. Of course they will not mourn for their dead compatriots, whether they are rat warlords, rat priests, rat warriors and young rats.
Dead ratmen, many dead ratmen, cannot make these guys feel even a little bit sad.
Skaven do not mourn for Skaven.
But they cherish their lives.
At this moment, it was obvious that we had no choice, on the last stretch of the journey away from the wetland.
Wu Yangyang’s troops were deployed and firmly blocking the way forward.
If you retreat, you will also be intercepted by the giant dragon swooping down from the sky.
Now, there is no escape for these rats.
But this is not a good thing.
A pair of bloodshot eyes were gradually becoming bloodshot, intense emotions were rising, and even the fatigue of running for days was temporarily left behind.
Scarlet eyes stared at the shadowy enemies in front of them. The original joy and luck of escaping were interrupted in an instant, and fear crawled back into my heart, accompanied by a sense of desperation. Violent.
The chaotic and echoing emotions gradually suppressed the rat people's ability to think.
In simple words of description.
This group of rat men were driven into panic.
Gradually, the rat man is slowly entering a violent state, his eyes are completely red, as if he is actively going crazy without the help of the rat man priest.
And finally after a sharp neighing.
The noisy sound swept through all the rat warriors present like a wave.
"Kill them! Kill them!"
"Damn guys! Damn guys!
"I'm going to cut off their tails! ”
“For God! "
"Kill! kill! kill! kill! ”
If you could use a simple sentence to describe the current state of these rat people.
Then probably, crazy.
Under the pressure of that damn lizard man, all these rat men went crazy.
At this moment, the cowardly nature has been completely suppressed.
The rat people rushed towards the kobolds and swamp murlocs blocking them in front of them like dancing.
The swamp fishmen who were curiously looking at these strange rat-men were startled by the claws and fangs.
But then, something even more frightening happened when the rat people swarmed up.
The swamp murlocs as the vanguard collided with the crazy rat people in panic, and the bone club they were waving in their hands was directly snatched away.
In the past few days of escaping, the rat people had already lost everything they had in order to run faster.
Whether it is weapons, armor, or the tail necklace that symbolizes glory, they are all thrown away, just to run faster, just to survive.
At this time, the things in the hands of these swamp fishmen became a supplement.
After snatching the bone club and knocking down the fish-man, the animal nature completely overwhelmed the wisdom, the rat-man behaved more like a real rat.
During the continuous escape, these guys had not eaten for a long time.
The rising hunger has no restraint in the surging animal nature.
At this time, we were facing the weak fish man again. Regardless of the smelly mucus on his body and the environment he was in, he was no longer afraid of the dangers around him. The first batch of swamp fish The crazy rats who collided with each other bit down without hesitation.
Screams of pain have echoed on the battlefield, but they are not coming from the rat men.
But it was sent by the fish people who were eaten alive.
This ferocious scene made these swamp fish people who had the habit of using corpses stunned.
