Riding and Slashing

Chapter 173 An Dongjia of Misty Mountain

Li Ang dispatched dozens of archers to stare at the retreating Jatu people, and then immediately let the troops start to besiege the wild people in the misty mountain.

It's a pity that the individual combat power of this team is not strong enough...

At this time, Li Ang somewhat missed the hunks in Mettenheim.

The soldiers under him are indeed brave and obedient, but they are not suitable for a big melee, otherwise he will definitely let the strong men of Mettenheim lead a team to chase down these Jatu who have betrayed their teammates.

Now we can only let those Jiatu people retreat into the forest. His purpose of combat is to protect the racecourse, and the Noldor will do it by themselves.

The people from the Misty Mountains had already had a difficult fight with those Noldor elves, but now they were surrounded on their backs. Of course they were no opponents, and they couldn't escape.

But at this time they showed quite terrifying fighting qualities - they didn't run or mess up, but all rushed in the direction of the Noldor elves.

These Mist Mountain Men launched a rare suicide charge against the Noldor!
It was indeed suicidal, and it was even more cruel than the way the Jatu people rushed to the battle.

They didn't have the tactical coordination ability of a group of ten like the Jatus. Of course, they couldn't charge in a group when they were surrounded.

But at least half of the Misty Mountain People flew out at the same time, roaring 'Aww', and threw their own bodies onto the blades of the Noldor!
They fit together and swooped forward, locking their bodies against the stabbing or chopping weapons of the Noldor, and then tightly grasping the arms of the Noldor, they threw the few Noldor elves to the ground to die. Hold it down.

The blood of the Misty Mountain Man splattered, but Noldo's defensive formation was instantly overwhelmed!

Li Ang was even stunned for a moment, and then immediately rushed forward at the fastest speed... The method used by the Misty Mountain Man can really defeat Noldo!

This is really one thing and one thing...

On a regular battlefield, this kind of flying pounce would only be worn on the spears outside the army formation.

There must be many spearmen in the human army.

Among the team Li Ang brought into the forest, there were 60 to [-] people with spears, which are indispensable weapons in the human army.

But the Noldor had no spears—maybe it was because the Noldor had been traveling through the forest for a long time, and it was not very convenient to carry pole weapons. The Noldor elves all used bows, arrows, swords and shields.

As a result, a large part of the Noldor elves did easily pierce the Misty Mountain Man in front of them with a sword, but then they were locked on the ground and could not move.

Then these Noldor were also easily slain by other Mist Mountain Men.

In Li Ang's mind, these people from the Misty Mountains, who were not considered strong, actually managed to exchange one with the Noldo elves at this time!

The number disadvantage of the Noldor was infinitely magnified under this suicide attack!

Only the two Twilight Knights were not bothered by the Misty Mountain Man's way of committing suicide. They used their excellent combat skills to avoid the enemies in front of them, and then created countless stumps among the Misty Mountain Man. arm.

But the Noldor could not hold back!

The Misty Hillmen had a great opportunity with their life-threatening blows. They protected a shaman-like guy and rushed through the gap where the Noldor were washed away, intending to rush into the stable.

Li Ang has been rushing to the forefront, and now that he is close and sees the situation in the stable, he understands why they must rush to the stable, and why the Noldor must guard in front of the stable—there are not only Some ponies, and some badly wounded, and two Noldor cubs!
Now there may be enemies everywhere in the forest outside, and it is really inconvenient to transfer the seriously wounded and young children. On the contrary, this stable is the most suitable place for the wounded around here.

As for the young children of the Noldor, for the Noldor elves who have difficulty in giving birth, of course they will protect them at all costs.

"Lisa Diran!"

The lord yelled.

The Elf Killer also saw the movements of the Misty Mountain Man. He was already near the stable, and when he saw this, he galloped and shot an arrow. The distance between him and the frontmost enemy was only a dozen meters. Accurate hit.

The felled Misty Mountain Man hindered his fellow clan behind him, and then a Twilight Knight threw out the sword in his hand, blocking the enemy again.

The few Noldor elves who were thrown to the ground also struggled to hold back the footsteps of some Misty Mountain people.

Li Ang ran all the way in the back. After the Misty Mountain Man in the front row was blocked several times in a row, he and Lisa Dilan arrived almost at the same time, and the Griffin Sword chopped off a bloody head.

However, there were still two Misty Mountain Men rushing into the stable one after the other. They looked like a man and a woman.

The Misty Mountain Man who ran in the front was the shaman, only he was wearing a distinctive helmet-the only one among the Misty Mountain Man present was wearing a barbarian horned helmet.

But just when Li Ang thought that the Misty Mountain Man might kidnap the young boy, the woman suddenly stabbed the shaman in the back with a sword!
Then she panted heavily, and then stabbed the sword towards the shaman's throat, making sure that the Misty Mountain shaman she stabbed over did not move, then dropped the sword, turned around and raised her hand .

"Ow ooh..."

The Misty Mountain people outside screamed strangely. After the woman killed the shaman, the remaining Misty Mountain people collapsed almost instantly, and they immediately planned to flee in all directions...

However, under such circumstances, the rout would lead to a dead end, and the Noldor and the archers brought by the lord quickly cleaned them up.

But at present, there are only thirty Noldor elves who can stand up and shoot arrows.

Just over 100 misty mountain savages caused the death and injury of fifty Noldor elves-and this was caused when they were surrounded, which was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

Although the Noldo guarding here are not the strongest nobles and rangers among the elves, at least every Noldo can be called an elite warrior or jungle killer, and their individual combat capabilities far exceed these Misty Mountain Men.

In fact, at least six to seventy people were shot dead before the Misty Mountain people rushed to them.

But who would have imagined that after these Misty Mountain Men charged in front of the Noldor under the rain of arrows, they could actually cause such terrible damage in hand-to-hand combat!
The Berserker of Misty Mountain is stronger than expected...

Probably only the woman in the stable is the only Misty Mountain Man who has maintained his sanity and calmness.

She didn't do anything that could lead to misunderstanding, but staggered out of the stable with her hands up, and shouted, "I surrender!"

But that twilight knight didn't seem to intend to let her go, he walked over and struck her with a sword...

"Stop it! She just saved your child! Are you out of your mind? She has already surrendered!"

The lord blocked the Twilight Knight with a sword, and Anson also ran over, looking at the Noldor elves cautiously.

Everyone on the field stopped their hands.

Seeing that there would be no fight, Anson took two medical team members and began to treat them.

"I didn't expect that I would get help from humans..."

Seeing that Anson began to treat the injuries of the Noldor, the bloodied Twilight Knight relaxed.

Although the voice was full of suspicion, and the eyes he looked at Li Ang and An Sen were somewhat unnatural, he finally put away the sword in his hand.

There is both condescending arrogance and unwillingness to face reality in those eyes.

It feels like humans are being besieged by a group of monkeys and being helped by another group of monkeys...

This guy probably has a deep hatred for humans.

It seems that this Twilight Knight is not very easy to deal with, the lord simply ignored him, but signaled Lisa Dilan to come over to meet him.

Lisa Dilan came over with a few words of ridicule: "You people of the Fenway family don't even have the most basic etiquette now? You don't even distinguish between good and evil, right? Master Li Ang came here to help you, but you Not even a word of thanks, what kind of attitude is this?"

Lisa Dilan is a nobleman of the Aino family, so of course he doesn't need to give the Fenway family any good face...

"I know you, Lisadilan... It seems that you have been exiled and gone to Men? Shame to the Noldor..."

The one who can become the Twilight Knight is naturally a nobleman, and he responded to Lisa Dilan's ridicule without showing any weakness.

Li Ang has learned the Noldor's attitude towards humans, as well as the condescending arrogance unique to the elves-in fact, when he first met Lisa Dilan, Lisa Dilan also showed indifference to humans.

This is probably something engraved in the bones of the elves. They may still think that they are still the masters of this land, or that any other creatures can only be regarded as animals that are no different from wild boars and deer.

This is a disease, and it needs to be cured - and the lord has medicine...

Lisa Dilan had obviously been cured by Li Ang with horse dung eggs.

But right now is not the time to give psychological counseling to the Noldors, so Li Ang walked up to the Misty Mountain woman first.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Ang pointed to the Misty Mountain shaman who was stabbed to death by a woman on the ground.

The shaman who fell on the ground held the shield of the Knights of the Ebony Gauntlets in his hand, and the armor on his body was obviously gathered from various places-the breastplate and shoulder armor did not match, and the inner chain armor was still intact. Damaged, apparently all spoils of war.

Only his helmet looks like it belongs to him.

It was a very strange one-piece cast iron helmet, which was probably formed by casting molten iron directly on the head of an animal—or maybe it was cast on a human head. Anyway, the helmet looks like a half-skull cover, and the molten iron The traces of flow are obvious.

On the top of the helmet is a pair of iron horns that have been polished quite smoothly, and they still look solid...

Probably the symbolic meaning of this pair of iron horns is greater than the actual function, because this thing must be extremely heavy on the head, and it should be extremely uncomfortable to wear.

But the woman didn't wear a helmet, only a leather robe, and a purple mark was painted on her face with lotion, like a cat's footprint, or a bear's paw.

The woman was also seriously injured, the flesh on her waist was rolled up, blood was flowing, her face was pale, she seemed to have lost too much blood.

She looked at the corpse on the ground and the long sword thrown beside the corpse, and actually smiled.

It was a long sword of Ravencrow Realm, which should have been the standard equipment of Ravencrow Realm dragon knights.

"I am An Dongjia from the Cat's Claw Tribe... My lord, you seem to be the lord of Pendor, but why are you helping Noldor?"

An Dongjia looked at Li Ang with strange eyes, she looked very calm, she didn't seem to have any regrets about the death of those Misty Mountain people, on the contrary, she had a look of relief.

"An Dongjia, answer my question first... Are these Misty Mountain people your subordinates? Why did you mix with the Jatu people?"

The lord felt that An Dongjia's state seemed a bit strange, so he motioned to An Sen to ask him to come over and bandage the woman. Her wound was bleeding all the time, and if the bleeding didn't stop, she might be unconscious and unable to ask questions.

"Hahaha……"

An Dongjia suddenly laughed: "They are not my subordinates...the lord...they are my enemies!"

As he spoke, he staggered, the woman had indeed lost too much blood.

An Sen had just walked to An Dongjia's side at this time, and realized something was wrong, so he gave An Dongjia a hand.

But his strength was really weak, and the two of them fell to the ground together, and An Dongjia fell on An Sen.

This is obviously the kindness in Anson's bones, which didn't let the weak and wounded fall directly to the ground.

An Dongjia laughed again: "Thank you, shy boy..."

She was speaking to Anson.

"An Dongjia, what's going on?"

Li Ang felt that An Dongjia was full of stories.

"My lord, these are people from the Bear Claw Tribe, and I am from the Cat Claw Tribe - I am not with them, I just want revenge..."

She looked back at the dead shaman again, with obvious pleasure in her eyes.

An Dongjia is a native of the Misty Mountains north of Ravencrows, and her father is the leader of the Cat's Claw Tribe.

But she had a similar fate to Risadiran, as she was also banished by the Horde.

This is because she led the Misty Mountain raiding team and was ambushed by Earl Stephen in Ravencrows, and her Misty Mountain people were almost lost in the ambush.

But this time, the ambush was not because of the high level of tactics of Earl Stephen of Oldenburg in the Ravencrow Realm—it was because the people of the Bear Claw tribe betrayed her.

There are countless tribes north of the Misty Mountains, they are a confederacy of tribes.

In fact, the word 'Mist Mountain Wildlings' used to describe the northern raider tribe was actually spread by the original Pendor of Ravensrow due to misunderstanding.

Until now, the Pendor people have always mistakenly believed that the Misty Mountain People were wildlings living in the misty plateaus and snow-capped mountains in the north.

But in fact, the Misty Mountains are as foreign to the 'Misty Mountains' as they are to those Pendors—they actually live on the other side of the Misty Mountains, a land that the Pendors have never set foot on, and there is no map. No.

The permafrost to the north of the Misty Mountains is desolate and empty. The perennially cold environment is not suitable for the growth of crops, and large-scale grazing is impossible in the ice and snow. This place is like a real hell, bitterly cold and barren.

Therefore, the development speed of the Misty Mountain tribe is far behind the Pendor civilization due to environmental factors.

In ancient times, the Misty Mountains tribe was a society that operated on a 64-year cycle - a regular cycle of population decline and increase discovered by the Misty Mountain shamans.

To put it simply, every 64 years, Misty Mountain will go through a cyclical cycle.

During the period of maximum population, there will be a shortage of arable land and herds to support the Misty Mountain tribe, which will cause widespread famine.At this time, the various tribes will fight each other to seize resources, so the population will decrease, and animals such as deer will reproduce.

Then, the war between the tribes stopped and recuperation began, and this barren land with a sharply reduced population began to recover again.

When the population grows to its limit a few decades later, the cycle repeats itself...

For a long time, this cycle that repeats every 64 years has made the shamans of various tribes gradually form a unified tacit understanding under this rule-every time when this cycle is approaching, the shamans will use the gods to maintain In the name of Jovis', wars between the tribes were launched, and the war would not cease until a certain number of people died.

'Vijovis' is a mountain god worshiped by the Misty Mountain people. In fact, this image of a silver lynx, or in other words, is a snow leopard.

The Misty Mountain people believe that only the shaman can see 'Vijovis' and can talk to the gods, so they will continue to kill each other in this cycle according to the shaman's will.

In this cycle, the Misty Mountain tribe once regarded the Misty Mountains with an altitude of more than 6000 meters as an insurmountable boundary. They have not crossed the Misty Mountains to enter the Pendor Continent for thousands of years. I didn't know there was such a large continent south of the Misty Mountains.

Until hundreds of years ago, a hunter named 'Pathfinder' Deerfoot got the call of the gods and crossed the mountain for the first time.

According to Misty Mountain lore, the hunter named Deerfoot saw the giant silver-white lynx known as 'Vijovis' when his tribe was facing an otherwise impossible 64-year cycle. Avoided war.

Because he saw the gods worshiped by the Misty Mountain people with his own eyes, he followed the huge lynx all the way across the Misty Mountains, so this tribe hunter from the north of the Misty Mountains saw a wider land for the first time.

Although there are many shamans who have tried to prove that Deerfoot is only a hunter and not a shaman, Vijwiss cannot be seen, and no one can prove that he actually crossed the Misty Mountain.But as the 64-year cycle gradually approached, the news that there was a large area of ​​cultivated land south of the Misty Mountains caused many Misty Mountain tribes to cross the mountains in order to escape the war, and entered the base area established by the early Pendor in the Land of Ravens.

Although the cold Ravencrowland is not a good place for most Pendor—in fact, Ravencrowland was originally only a place to exile prisoners, and it is difficult to plant seeds from the south in the cold Northland. All Pendor must endure famine.

But these people of the Misty Mountains who fled the war from across the snowy mountains, these people who came to Ravencrow through the real hell, they know how to choose the hardy seeds that can maximize the harvest.

They taught the Pendors the agricultural knowledge they had acquired in the ice field, and the exiles, who had a hard time living in a large number of lands, also welcomed these outsiders, so the two races supported each other and lived together on this land down, and gradually melted into one.

In fact, for the current Pendor Continent, the people of Ravencrow Realm are the common descendants of Pendor and Misty Mountain people—the so-called Misty Mountain savages that Ravencrow Kingdom has been fighting against are actually of the same bloodline as them.

Even those 'highland warriors' in Zhuiwan are actually all the most direct descendants of the Misty Mountain people.

The people of Ravencrow, especially those near Shizhu Bay, can probably be called 'Southern Misty Mountain People', while those tribes that still remain north of the Misty Mountains can probably be called 'Northern Misty Mountain People' .

Originally, the first batch of Misty Mountain people came to Pendor Continent to bring peace and friendship, but then, things changed.

The shamans and tribal leaders of the Northern Misty Mountains set their sights on the land of Ravenclaw to the south of the mountains.
