Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords
#282 - First Battle
Hundreds of wooden huts were densely packed on this vast expanse of highland, with blooming tulips planted around the houses. Unfortunately, this rare flower sea had already been trampled into a muddy mess.
Yada was an ordinary little village. Because it was near Correll, where tulips were grown and sold, the farmers in the village lived reasonably well. At least, they had enough to eat and wear. There were over a thousand villagers and a militia of a dozen or so men to guard against thieves or petty criminals.
But now, these militiamen were all tied up, hands and feet bound, squatting on the village square like lambs to the slaughter.
Nearby, bonfires blazed, with iron pots scavenged from the farmers' homes placed on top, boiling water. Hundreds of ugly, dark-red-skinned goblins with bull horns, barely four feet tall, excitedly circled the bonfires, chattering away in some unknown gibberish.
The bound farmers on the ground wore expressions of despair.
After all, they were about to become food for these monsters, and no one was in a good mood.
Just before dawn, monsters of unknown origin attacked them in their sleep. Facing such powerful enemies, these unarmed farmers could only resist for a short while before being captured. Now, they could only pray to the Earth Mother for protection.
"Bru, let's eat that little human first. Tender meat!"
One of the small demons, missing a horn, stared at a blonde girl in the crowd, drooling. Its scarlet tail wagged excitedly.
As a low-level Abyss demon, it had only heard from its elders about how tender human meat was. This was the first time it had the chance to eat a human.
Their original goal was to trick open the human city walls, but they didn't expect those humans to be so clever. Faced with the insurmountable city walls, they could only attack villages without wall protection.
"No, that female human, I get to use her before we eat her!"
Another small demon, more robust, with a tiny, scarlet, cylindrical object dangling between its legs, greedily eyed the freckled blonde girl in the crowd.
Then, it brazenly walked towards the girl, making no attempt to hide its filthy intentions.
It had had enough of the Abyss's female fire lizards, which were not only scalding hot but also rough. The succubi, those cheap bitches, were all fawning over the demon lords, and wouldn't even let him touch them!
It had lived in the Abyss for nearly a century, and never thought it would have the chance to come to the legendary material world.
It was going to savor the taste of a human girl.
As the first small demon in hundreds of years to taste a human female again, it would surely be recorded in the history of the Abyss, to be admired by later generations of small demons.
If it could return to the Abyss this time, it would definitely write a travelogue to be remembered by future generations, called 'Bru's Palace Travelogue'.
Although it had never been to a human palace, writing it like that would surely attract the attention of many small demons, to proclaim its great achievement of being promoted to an Abyss lord, starting today.
"You disgusting, ugly demons, go back to where you came from!"
Although he couldn't understand what these monsters were saying, their intentions were obvious.
The strong militia captain roared angrily, shifting his bound body to stand in front of the blonde girl.
"You're too noisy. I'll chop you up and boil you into soup!"
Bru, annoyed at being disturbed from its fantasy of a good life, kicked the tall human in the chest.
But it didn't expect the human's chest to push back, and it was knocked to the ground instead, eating dirt.
"Hahaha, you ugly goblin monster, go back to shoveling dung!"
Rot laughed without restraint.
"Earth Mother, please send down a righteous knight to save Uncle Rot and us poor children..." The blonde girl was already pale with fright, her hands clasped together in front of her chest, trembling as she prayed.
The weak girl was clearly not tied up.
She often listened to Uncle Rot's stories of brave knights. Whenever disaster struck, these handsome knights in silver armor would ride magnificent white horses to rescue those in distress.
At this moment, she desperately hoped that such a knight would appear before her.
But this was reality after all, and no knight appeared. The monsters' leers still echoed in her ears, and the curses and pleas of her uncles and aunts were so clear.
She was going to be vented upon like a rag doll, and then... Wait...
"Good heavens! What is that!"
Uncle Rot's exclamation suddenly rang out.
The little girl hurriedly opened her eyes and saw a knight riding an ugly three-headed monster, appearing from the distant woodland.
He was wearing heavy armor, completely enveloped, like the metal devils in grandma's stories who liked to slaughter creatures. What made her blood run cold was that he was wielding a giant sword far exceeding his own size.
Nina felt that the weight of that giant sword alone could crush her into a pancake. He was clearly not the handsome knight she had imagined.
These small demons had also noticed this uninvited guest. They were initially startled by his imposing manner, but when they realized he was alone, these bullies immediately grabbed pitchforks and hoes and surrounded him.
But they soon paid a painful price for their rash actions. With a light swing of the giant sword, they were like water droplets falling to the ground, instantly scattering in all directions.
The one who came was Li Wei. As a knight, he didn't like using lances, because this weapon mainly relied on the impact of the mount to cause damage, but with his inhuman strength.
The lance restricted his performance. It was more enjoyable to wield a giant sword and hack and slash.
With the blessing of abundant giant force, the sound of blasting produced by each giant sword swing filled the entire village sky, and the little demon that was swung even did not have time to utter a scream, the whole body cracked like a watermelon.
Internal organs, bones, blood, all mixed into a pile of minced meat splashing.
This cruel scene made many villagers of Yada pale, but also know that the coming person is a savior, the inner disgust was soon overwhelmed by the excitement of surviving.
Hundreds of small demons were soon killed crying by one person, these bullying guys also know that they have provoked the evil star, drop their weapons and run in all directions.
They don't know where is safe, but as long as they can stay away from the suddenly arrived monster.
But just ran not far, a group of jackal scouts in the forest rushed out with scimitars.
Unfortunately, what arrived faster than them were arrows.
Centaurs collectively launched a charge in the rear, but the movements on their hands did not stop at all, marble sculptures of thick arms easily opened the bowstring, arrows were shot out one by one.
Their rhythm is very stable, so that there is a sense of rapid shooting of arrows in succession.
Charging them, the accuracy is also scary, every time the sound of the bowstring rings, it will trigger a burst of shrill screams.
These demons did not expect that they just attacked a village, will attract a group of killing stars.
These fleeing small demons had no power to fight back, and were soon killed.
Li Wei noticed that most of the demons were scared away by his kingly aura, but there was still a small demon standing in front of the captured villagers, looking straight at him.
"I thought they were all cowards, I didn't expect there to be a tough guy." Li Wei grinned, without needing too much instruction, Bei Feng understood and jumped directly, his lithe body crossed over a dozen blades from the sky.
A claw slapped the demon to the ground, followed by three wolf heads scrambling to bite, and finally the middle head triumphantly chewed the small demon to pieces and swallowed it into its stomach, looking at the Lord with tongue out as if asking for credit.
"Stupid dog, you eat everything." Li Wei scolded with disgust, but still touched the three wolf heads, causing them to wag their tails excitedly.
The freemen in front of them all looked at the black armored warrior bathed in blood with fear.
Li Wei also knew that his current appearance was indeed visually impactful, wanton hacking although refreshing, but also made him full of meat, blood.
Actively opened the faceplate, revealing a young too handsome face.
"You must be the knight sent by the Earth Mother to save us." Nina looked at that face stunned, the inner fear instantly dissipated, excitedly asked.
"You were really too heroic just now, just like the heroes in the story, all the words of praise are not enough to describe your greatness."
"No, I was sent by the Goddess of Holy Light." The Lord looked at the blonde girl who was only ten years old, and his mouth could not close when he was praised.
After all, children don't lie, definitely said all his Li Wei's good qualities.
Li Wei turned over and jumped down from the wolf's back, "What's your name?"
"Adult, my name is Nina." The blonde girl's eyes were full of someone's great figure, so that she forgot the hellish scene around her.
"Very good, Nina, can you tell me when these demons attacked you, how many people are there?"
Li Wei revealed what he thought was the most handsome and amiable smile, took off his gloves, and bowed slightly to stroke the other's head.
The militia captain Luo Te looked at his nose and nose at his heart, obviously these things to ask him better, rather than ask a child.
But he did not dare to disturb this adult.
The other party is likely to be a nobleman inside Ke Lun, learned that there are demons attacking the village to support.
Relieved in his heart, the other party came in time, so that the tragedy did not happen, the heart is full of gratitude.
The little demons were all resolved, leaving only one or two to serve as questioning.
The jackals untied a few bound villagers, let them untie the ropes for the others on their own.
"Adult, this group of demons attacked us near dawn, many people died in the resistance, we suffered heavy losses." Luo Te, who was untied, looked at the rolling limbs in the soup pot, his eyes red, "Thank you very much for your selfless assistance, these are the money we raised to thank you for your efforts, please do not refuse, this is the only thanks that a group of poor people can make."
"Alas, condolences, these demons not only attacked you, but also attacked Ke Lun at night, if it were not for the cautiousness of the city guard officer, then it would have caused a tragedy." Li Wei patted the other's shoulder, quietly stuffed the money bag in his waist.
In fact, he also wanted to decline a bit, to come to the three please three resignations, but was afraid that the other party really took it seriously, so he had to cheekily accepted it.
Now he is really poor ah, a person raising the high cliff castle a large family, finally from Liya there pulled three thousand quota of military spending sponsorship.
Now he does not want to let go of a copper son.
"Ah." Luo Te was a little stunned, did not expect this group of demons also attacked Ke Lun, his son is still in Ke Lun inside when the tailor apprentice.
He said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, the city guard officer cautious, I guess his person must be a military genius, knowledge as vast as the sea, these demons' tricks in this adult's wise eyes is like a goblin showing off his appearance ridiculously."
"Yes, yes." The Lord nodded repeatedly.
"Lord Li Wei, who is that officer?" Nina asked curiously.
"Not talented, it is under." The Lord grinned, revealing two rows of neat white teeth.
This sentence choked the people present for a long time did not know how to open their mouths, or Nina this little girl's praise of the voice took the lead in breaking the silence.
......
Not long after, Fu Jieluo also led his men to come over.
A few hundred small demons only, there is no need for them to go together, even this newly promoted Marquis alone can solve, so in Li Wei to solve the village demons, he sent people to the front to explore the situation.
"Duke, I found the main force of this demon in a leeward slope in front, about seven or eight thousand."
Fu Jieluo turned over and dismounted, took off his white gloves, he was wearing a delicate officer's uniform.
Although his fighting spirit cultivation is not low, but as a commander, there are few situations where he needs to participate in the battle.
"Seven or eight thousand? Last night, the city was stolen and defeated, at least two or three thousand were killed by us, this number is about the same as I calculated."
Li Wei thought.
"Have you explored which demons are the main combat forces of the other side?"
"According to the scouts, 50% of this demon are small demons, and the rest are Babu demons." Fu Jieluo looked at the Lord who was holding a little girl, covered with garlands on his neck, and even two strings of garlic, his eyelids jumped, and finally could not help but ask: "Duke you this is?"
If it were not for knowing the other party's character, Fu Jieluo would have almost thought that this high cliff castle Lord had looted this small village, and grabbed a little girl to serve as a maid.
"Hey, it's nothing, it's just the remuneration given by the villagers to thank someone for the rescue, originally I wanted to refuse." The Lord sighed, stuffed all the candy beans in Nina's mouth, put her back on the ground, and continued to explain: "But how can everyone be too enthusiastic, it's really hard to refuse."
"Yes, yes, later could not stand our repeated requests, the adult reluctantly agreed." Nina's mouth was fed full of candy beans, the tone was a bit vague initiative to take the words.
