The coalition of nobles of the Northern Commandery finally reached the vicinity of the Solid Stone Pass.

The original rugged dirt road has completely lost the traces of caravans and pedestrians.

Only in the flat wilderness farther away could you occasionally see a few figures on horseback, passing by quickly, flashing in the night, even the cavalry sent by the noble alliance could not catch up.

These cavalrymen were desert bandits, scattered outside, following these noble coalition forces from afar.

The task is reconnaissance.

If the light cavalry of the nobles came to drive them away, they left without hesitation.

But when the light cavalry retreated, the desert bandits would follow like flies.

Hanging from a distance, the distance between the two sides will never exceed 100 meters, which is simply too easy for the desert bandits, compared to the Salander Desert, following those caravans.

After all, they are all bandits, excellent light cavalry honed in the desert!

Even those hussars followed too closely.

After staying away from the aristocratic coalition.

These desert bandits, on the other hand, brazenly bared their fangs, drew their short javelins with their backhands, and rushed over in twos and threes, shooting all the light cavalry who had no long-range means of attack under their horses.

When it comes to mobility and agility, as well as javelin throwing, the Desert Bandits are extremely confident!

Just look at the light cavalry of the aristocratic coalition.

was originally full of fire.

Unconsciously.

Deep into the heart of the plains, far away from the aristocratic coalition.

Originally, I saw that the desert bandits who stopped were still full of excitement, and wanted to rush up to deal with this group of sneaky guys, but I didn't expect those sneaky guys to rush back instead.

Before they could draw their swords and hedge, they were nailed to their horses by a rain of short javelins thrown at them.

Conventional warfare?

For desert bandits, that's the rule!

Stopping and harassing the aristocratic coalition along the way, these desert bandits are like having fun.

Except for a few unlucky ghosts who got too close to the formation of the aristocratic coalition and were killed by a rain of arrows fired from a strong crossbow inside, no desert bandits were injured, but in the end, it was a loss.

And in the distance of the aristocratic coalition was at a slightly sunken ancient river channel, where thousands of cavalry were stopping.

Rolf is here.

The surrounding cavalry is also light cavalry, desert bandits and desert bandit elites.

There are thousands of people, and there are also newly recruited desert bandits who have come to support them at the sentry oasis, and the current number is 600 of the most common desert bandits, and 1000 elite desert bandits used for raids.

Those who scattered to follow the noble alliance before were ordinary desert bandits.

And this caused a lot of losses to the light cavalry of those nobles.

"Lord Rolf!"

Desert bandits are coming quickly.

Respectfully turned over and dismounted, and half-knelt in front of Rolf to report: "The noble coalition army of the Northern County Commander has appeared in a village about 30 miles south of the Jianshi Pass, and is setting up a temporary camp, seemingly preparing to rest. ”

"Hmm." Rolf sat in a chair and spread out a map in front of him: "Did you inform Fatis?" ”

"It's already arranged."

The desert bandit nodded, "I guess we have reached the Solid Stone Pass now, and Lord Fatis has also received the news." After a pause, he still reported: "However, the group of noble coalition forces seems to want to attack while it is dark, and in our observation, some mercenaries who can't wait are still heading towards the Solid Stone Pass. ”

"Attack while it's dark? It's so much fun! Rolf sneered, put down the map in his hand, and said, "Do those mercenaries think that they can easily defeat the defenders on the city wall?" ”

"They have siege weapons."

The desert robber reported: "It seems to be a bed crossbow, which is in the carriage with it, and after buying some mercenaries, they say that there are also parts of trebuchets, which are estimated to be the main weapons of the siege." ”

"That's going to be difficult." Rolf touched the short whisker on his chin: "Are you sure?" He looked at the desert robber, and after receiving an affirmative answer, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Let my boys get ready, get all the linen ready, and we are ready to have a welcome ceremony for our friends." ”

"Yes!" The desert bandits retreated, spreading the news throughout the cavalry.

This is pre-combat preparation.

After 30 minutes.

Rolf led the way on horseback and on the plain.

Spears, scimitars and short javelins were ready, as well as linen in a package on horseback.

These light cavalry troops marched forward quickly, rumbling like rolling thunder, but when they were about to reach the vicinity of the village, they quickly stopped running, and all of them turned over and dismounted at the orders of their respective captains, and began to lead their horses forward.

The moonlight and starlight shone on the land, and even in the middle of the night, you could still see far away.

But what I saw was vague and not real at all.

It can't be compared to daytime.

Therefore, Rolf could slowly approach the village where the coalition of nobles was stationed.

Even the light cavalry didn't care about the wandering hussars, there were naturally crazy desert bandits, launching a feint on the other side of the village, which was part of the plan for them, just as they had done in the first place.

In the Salander Desert, the feint attracts the attention of the caravan guards, and the other side is the main force that really loots the caravan!

"Alright."

Rolf led the horse in front.

They did not encounter any reconnaissance and patrol hussars along the way.

Because on the other side of the village, 600 desert bandits, like madness, were cursing the coalition army, attracting the attention of those light cavalry, and back and forth, running and running, not close to each other, not immediately retreating, but like flies flying back and forth, completely annoying the light cavalry belonging to the noble coalition army.

A large number of light cavalry, which had been used for reconnaissance and patrolling the surrounding area, were all brought in to hunt down the 600 desert bandits, and even some light infantry were sent out.

"Prepare for battle!"

Rolf's eyes were deep, and he slowly pulled out the scimitar at his waist, turned his head and said, "Let's act!" ”

"Let's get moving!"

The captains conveyed orders one after another.

They began to trot briskly, leading their horses on the soft soil, and the soles of their feet and the hooves of their horses were wrapped in linen, so that the sound was not roaring, but rather a strange muffled sound.

It's like a stone rolling, and although there is a sound, it can't be heard very far.

In the darkness of the night.

300 meters away, the night sky is deep.

And at this short distance, for the cavalry, it may turn over at any time and turn into a charging state!

Looking at the outline of the village in the starry night ahead, and the tents scattered around the village after many torches were lit, Rolf directly turned over his horse, kicked the horse's belly fiercely, and shouted loudly: "Charge!" ”

"Kill!" 1,000 elite desert bandits immediately pounced!
