Chapter 87, Charge! charge!
I just don’t know if I will make the same mistake again this time.
Although the city has not yet been fully established, the wild boar army that came to garrison has arrived.
But to a certain extent, Sheng Qi did not deceive those rat priests.
Because with the arrival of the wild boar army, the large number of slaves of various races captured during their advance were used as labor and food, and were escorted to the city under construction.
Not only that, a large amount of supplies are also being continuously transported to the city from behind the wild boars.
With such strong support.
If there are no twists and turns, a huge and strong fortress city will soon rise from the ground.
If there are no twists and turns.
………….
Even though this narrow tunnel greatly slowed down the marching speed of the rat army, Sheng Qi, as the commander, did not rely on his men, who had expanded by more than forty times, to march wantonly in the forest. Running in the middle.
He even commanded the Skaven army to choose a route that bypassed most of the wild boar outposts, camps, and small forest cities.
To a certain extent, he felt that he was being cautious, or cherishing his life.
And this time he learned his lesson and threw the unreliable slave-catching team to the front of the team without hesitation. It was these slave rats from the slave-catching team who were the vanguard tonight.
When the rat army arrived at its destination and began to spurt out of the small cave, the sky was already a little brighter.
Of course, it also made the gushing army of rat men even more terrifying.
There is not only one rat lair near this wild boar city under construction, this is an important area chosen by the wild boar gods.
It is also favored by the rat priests. A large number of underground tunnels are connected near this area.
The densely packed cave entrances are also hidden in every secret corner above the ground.
When there are no ratmen running around in them, even if these cave entrances are discovered, they will not be taken seriously. After all, many of the many races in the forest are Has the habit of digging caves.
Only when you go deep into these dark caves and start exploring, will the huge network of tunnels all over the ground really become apparent.
As a standard surface race, the wild boars obviously don't have much interest in exploring dark caves. Most of the methods of dealing with them are to fill them with soil and compact them, although such actions do have an effect.
At least at this time, there are no ratmen swarming out of the city foundation that turned into a huge construction site.
But at those cave entrances that were not blocked, the rat people turned into black waves, like springs gushing out from the ground.
The rat people are pouring out!
In an instant, the wild boar soldiers scattered at the outposts around the construction site began to warn while shouting.
The huge metal bell was rang by the vigil soldiers who reacted.
In the city with more than half of the construction progress, many wild boar people started to move, but the ones who reacted first than the wild boar soldiers were the captured slaves of various races.
These slaves, who were originally regarded as short-term consumables, began to riot without hesitation.
In an instant, there was chaos.
Many wild boar soldiers gathered in a hurry. Before they had time to meet the attacking enemy, they began to suppress the rioting slaves.
However, in the end, due to the timely warnings from the wild boar people at the outposts, they still got a certain amount of reaction time.
But the outposts that warned were not so lucky. The swarms of ratmen overwhelmed those sporadic outposts almost instantly. Even though these wild boar soldiers were wearing tough leather armor, they were unable to withstand the attacks of the rats, and they disappeared among the rats with screams.
In the horrifying overlapping sounds, the terror of the Skaven army was revealed for the first time in front of the wild boar.
Several wild boar men wearing light armor ignored the riots of slaves in the city, rode out of the city on huge black-haired wild boars and disappeared into the forest.
The group of rats emerged from the cave accompanied by the commander, also completing their assembly.
Sheng Qi was as excited as ever, especially when looking at the huge army wandering in front of him.
Waving the wooden staff in his hand, the young priest did not give too much command to the army in front of him, but simply roared excitedly.
“For the gods!”
A cacophony of shouts arose.
The wild boars were waiting on the city wall.
The Ratmen begin to charge!
At this dawn!
The vanguard are those rat-men slave-catching teams. Compared with the regular rat-men army, their biggest feature is the various ropes and nets prepared for catching slaves.
In the roaring charge, all kinds of nooses and nets, so dense that they covered the sky, became the first wave of the rat people's offensive.
Nets kept falling, covering the heads of the wild boar warriors. The thick rope woven nets were difficult to cut even with metal swords.
In this battle, no slave rat from the slave catching team dared to cheat.
Because behind them, as the battle begins, the rat warriors who have long been accustomed to charging will not give them a chance to cheat.
This group of guys has a habit of stabbing fleeing people to death with spears, especially at the beginning of the charge.
Coupled with the continuous falling madness.
Even though the priests who were left behind were all young unlucky ones, as the number of people increased, even though most of them were young priests who only knew the madness technique, the coverage expanded.
The scarlet light flashed continuously on the battlefield.
These slave-catching teams could only charge towards the wild boars in front of them with all their strength.
After throwing out the nets and nooses in their hands, the slave rats of the slave catching team jumped onto the jagged city wall with piercing screams.
They collided with the wild boar warriors who were hurriedly organizing their defense lines.
The wild boar warriors who were caught in nets and nooses were pulled to the ground on the spot, and then a large number of slave rats holding spears swarmed up, and there was no sound in an instant.
If a troublesome guy appears, then this group of slave rats will disperse in a hurry.
Different from the rat warriors brought out by the rat war, the slave rats of these slave hunting teams are better at hunting and are more precious about their lives.
When the riot caused by slaves in the city was quickly quelled, with the support of the wild boar warriors who continued to appear from the city to join the front, this group of slave rats who were not good at attacking difficulties fell into a stalemate. .
But those rat warriors wouldn't care about this.
Pressure without scruples!
The quilboars encountered the same troubles as the lizardmen troops in the old Qicheng City.
More and more slave rats are being pushed up the city wall, and the space on the city wall is becoming more and more crowded with the influx of more and more slave rats.
