Rich Chapter 38: Ambush

    The Forsworn are the largest or even the only underworld force in Reach. Theoretically, no one would be able to trouble them while traveling in the wild mountains, and our trip will be very stable.  However, it was a huge inconvenience to transfer and transport the huge amount of baggage on the rugged mountain trails. If the delay continued, it would take at least ten days and a half to reach King Mednach's base.  After some weighing, they felt that spending less time on the road was the most important thing. If they defected too late, their tribe might be despised by the Maidenaki.  As a result, the endless convoy of Forsworn finally walked out of the deep mountains and forests, and drove onto the smooth main road without any scruples.  "If we are walking blatantly on their road like this, will the Nords send out troops to surround us?" I expressed my concern to the leader of the Forsworn.  "We have always been the ones to encircle and suppress them on the road! Even if you give the Nord barbarians ten courages, they would not dare to turn around!" The tone of the leader of the Forsworn sounded very conceited. He did not think that the Nord barbarians had been huddled in passive defense in cities and villages.  Territorial soldiers will gather and drive over to find trouble with them.  Also, thanks to the Forsworn's never-ending troubles for several epochs, although the Nords are unstoppable with strong troops and horses, they are helpless in the face of a group of guerrillas whose ultimate goal is to cause destruction, like a cannon hitting mosquitoes.  Being alone is the best situation.  But the high-profile assurances from the leader of the Forsworn did not make me let go of my worries. There was always an ominous premonition lingering in my mind.  To be on the safe side, I picked a stronger reindeer from the herd to ride on, and took Flotella from the back of the cute little deer that she couldn't let go of.  ¡­ ¡­ The magic power I spent on detecting spells along the way was not in vain. I followed the deer to the side of the Forsworn leader to keep pace with him, and reported to him what I had just seen and heard.  "Boss, there is a situation ahead." "Yes, I saw it too. There is a reindeer flying in the sky. It's really strange." The leader of the Forsworn looked disapproving when he saw it was me.  Haha, the birth of Santa Claus is a blessing from heaven, but what appears in my field of vision is definitely not a good sign. I am afraid that there will be a bloody disaster in front of me.  "A large number of heavily armed unidentified people are surrounding us from the side." "Huh?" The leader of the Forsworn was startled by my information, but he quickly relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief, "I know you  We feel insecure, but don¡¯t be alarmist. Who dares to make trouble with us in Reach? We should be thankful that those Nord barbarians didn¡¯t take the initiative to cause trouble!¡± ¡°The other party is not a Nord army,¡± I said.  He tried hard to adjust the focus of his farsightedness so that he could see more clearly, "the other party should be another group of Forsworn, if the two things on their heads are genuine antlers." "Oh, so it is.  One of our own." After hearing my more detailed report, the Forsworn leader completely dispelled his doubts, "They must be lurking here to ambush passing business travelers, and there are always some short-sighted people who want money.  The guy who is desperate will take the initiative to give us a big gift. " "I think you should pay attention to it. It's not that simple." I patiently continued to report the other party's sensitive movements to the leader of the Forsworn. "They have now begun to close the circle.  Is it really okay for us to just pretend that nothing happened?" The Forsworn leader waved at me nonchalantly, "Don't worry, the Forsworn in Reach are all one family.  After recognizing our identity, they will leave amicably, and maybe we will kill dozens of deer and have a grand bonfire party tonight. "The Forsworn leader firmly believes that the other party has no ill intentions, so I can only do it.  Continue to observe the other party's next moves.  Although his view is a bit blind, there is some truth in it - in my impression, the Forsworn in Reach are indeed monolithic, and they have never set out to become enemies and kill each other.  However, what happened next did not develop in the direction predicted by the leader of the Forsworn. As the opponent's encirclement gradually closed, the opponent's figure also officially appeared in our field of vision.  We can recognize their clothing and appearance, and similarly, they can definitely recognize us clearly.  But instead of letting go of hostility, the other party made more threatening follow-up actions.  Judging from the formation of troops, the opponent planned to cut our long-line convoy into several sections, divide and surround it, and then swallow or cannibalize it.  The threat is approaching, and the peaceful deer herd are also showing signs of being frightened.  The Forsworn finally realized that something was wrong with the situation, and everyone began to spontaneously appease the deer herd to prevent them from becoming scattered.They sent people over to ask the leader of the Forsworn for instructions on what to do next.  "Calm down! Calm down!" The leader of the Forsworn suppressed everyone's doubts. He asked the team to maintain the status quo, and at the same time sent a messenger to negotiate with another group of Forsworn who had unknown intentions.  "Negotiations now are just a waste of the best opportunity to take action! They are coming for us! They are so close, they must have recognized our identities long ago!" "I even have to wonder if you are a Forsaken, Forsaken  The Forsworn leaders are not as scheming as the Nord barbarians." The Forsworn leader expressed his dissatisfaction with my tone.  However, although he did not want to think about the worst, the situation in front of him inevitably made him a little suspicious, "Well their behavior is indeed a bit weird. Could it be that there is some misunderstanding?" Everything is conventional in the face of interests.  It's all a joke.  If it hasn't happened before, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't happen in the future. Our convoy carries a lot of supplies. If someone robs it, it will save twenty years of struggle. If it were me, I would have no reason to let go of this big thing in front of me.  A piece of fat.  I told the Forsworn leader my thoughts.  After hearing my insights, the Forsworn leader became very anxious, but he still refused to take effective action.  "Let's wait for news from the messenger first." The leader of the Forsworn gave a seemingly safe response.  ¡­ Our convoy gradually slowed down and was far away from the messenger walking in front.  The encirclement between the envoy and the opponent was already close at hand. He moistened his voice and shouted his intention towards the opponent's camp.  "We are the Forsworn who came from the south. We have passed through your realm, please" The shouting stopped suddenly, and a deer bone arrow penetrated the messenger's throat, causing him to shut up completely before he could finish speaking.  mouth.  Realizing that the rider on its back suddenly fell, the panicked reindeer turned around and ran away. However, before running a few steps, he was also killed by an arrow made of the same kind of bones.  The sudden situation caused our camp to panic and panic.  The two sides are both forsworn. Not only do they have no grievances, but they also share the friendship of compatriots. Now they are not even willing to give them a chance to communicate. This is the rhythm of killing!  No matter what kind of luck the leader of the Forsworn still held, what he saw was enough to make him abandon his unrealistic illusions.  The brain is running rapidly and starting to think of countermeasures.  How should we respond to an enemy who is determined to kill us?  The opponent's formation has been formed and they have seized the opportunity. We are already at a natural disadvantage.  In addition, our troops are more inclined to the nature of the baggage team, including the old, weak, women and children. Their combat power is uneven, and they are not at the same level as the opponent who came here deliberately.  What's worse is that the days of traveling have made us exhausted, and it is difficult for us to fight back in the face of the elite enemy troops who are waiting for work.  The leader of the Forsworn is still hesitating, but what he is hesitating about now is no longer the question of "whether the other party is an enemy or a friend."  He doesn¡¯t want to run away. Here is the wealth that their tribe has accumulated over many years. Once it is given up, they will have nothing.  But he must also understand that in a head-on confrontation, even a miserable victory is a luxury.  Seeing that the leader of the Forsworn had not yet come up with an idea, I grabbed his shoulders and shook him vigorously, urging him loudly, "What are you still thinking about? Break out! As far as you can go!" "Break out! You can!"  "You can go as long as you want!" My roar woke up the leader of the Forsworn. He finally made up his mind and loudly conveyed to everyone exactly what I just shouted to him.  The men who were waiting eagerly around him immediately ran back and forth to tell each other, passing orders to every corner of the migration team.  The team stretched endlessly, and the Forsworn did not seem to have thought about designing a flag or anything. It was quite difficult to completely convey the order to everyone before the situation became irreversible.  Therefore, there was no time to wait for other units to prepare for a breakout, so we took the lead and took action.  The heavy truck loaded with supplies was reluctantly but decisively abandoned, and the reindeer pulling the truck was also unchained.  Everyone around them had already picked up their weapons, rode on the reindeer, and formed a wedge-shaped charge formation, waiting for the next order.  "Which way to break out?" The betrayal of his compatriots will destroy the foundation. The leader of the Forsworn looked angry and confused. He decided to vent his anger on the damn enemy.  At this time, it was difficult for him to think calmly, and the decision-making power was handed over to me.  I stood on the broken-down trolley and looked around, then returned to the reindeer's back.  Since the other party has come prepared, various traps must have been set on the road ahead. This surprise is not something we who are at the end of our rope can bear.  Judging from the opponent's current manpower arrangement, the opponent'sHaving discovered the weakness of our team, side cuts will be their main direction of attack, and we should avoid their sharp edges.  So I pointed my finger in front of us.  (To be continued.)
