Chapter 1528 Village Guard Battle

Autumn is here, and the crops in the fields are about to be harvested.

A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy stood on the watchtower about ten meters high, watching nervously watching every move in the woods ahead.

Suddenly, the boy found something moving by the forest.

He rubbed his eyes, focused his attention and found that goblins rushed out of the woods.

"Do!Do!Do!"

The bell on the watchtower was ringing. The villagers threw down their farm tools and rushed to the shed where they were resting by the fields. They put on thick armed clothes and wooden helmets, then picked up weapons such as shields and spears to gather near the gate of the thorn wall.

Armed clothing is made by folding many layers of solid linens and sewing them into diamond lattices with thick threads. It is still a bit difficult to cut through with the power of an ordinary goblin.

Not to mention that there is also a cloth vest sewn like a "sole". If the goblin uses a stone spear, it will definitely not be worn.

This kind of armed clothing is quite time-consuming to make. It takes more than half a month to complete one set, but there are many people who can do needlework in the village. In winter, many people can be found to do this work.

Some villages simply send the materials directly to farmers' homes, and they are responsible for their own equipment. If someone dies because of the quality of the person is not up to standard, it will be your family's business.

The villagers who were afraid of death came up with various enhancement patches on their armed clothes. Those who had money bought some iron pieces and sewed them in, while those who had no money put some wooden boards in them.

The villagers' helmets are similar to those of Vietnamese cool helmets, and their protection capabilities are naturally not as good as those of steel helmets. However, with the hydraulic lathes, this kind of helmets are quite cheap and can be afforded by the village.

Moreover, during the battle, the helmet also has a cover hanging down to the shoulders. This cover with the same craft as the "shoe soles" and looks similar to the beekeeper, only the piece in front of me is empty.

Although this set of equipment is not light to wear, it is no longer important to survive.

Especially such armor can give everyone confidence and feel unhappy when facing goblins and ordinary beasts.

The goblins in the distance rushed towards the village gate, and the boy on the watchtower set up a bamboo crossbow to shoot at the goblin running in the front.

It was just that the distance was too far and the deviation was too great, and the crossbow arrow suddenly pierced the thigh of a goblin behind.

This was enough, the poison on the arrow made the goblin fall to the ground just after running two steps.

The goblin with a bow and arrow behind him set a bow and aimed at the watchtower. The young man was so scared that he immediately squatted down, then untied the rope beside him, and the wooden curtains like blinds were immediately placed.

This is a method that came up in the nearby village. People in the watchtower can see outside through the gaps in the wooden boards, and the rough bow and arrow in the Goblin's hand had no choice but to do this at a long distance.

"You go down."

A strong man with gray hair climbed up the watchtower and asked the boy to go down.

The retired adventurer was very prestigious in the village. The boy went down the watchtower without saying a word.

The situation in front of him made the retired adventurer frown. There were more than twenty goblins in this group, including one goblin shaman.

Moreover, these goblins did not directly hit the gate on the thorn wall, but were mostly making noise in front of the gate, with five or six goblins trying to pass through the thorn wall.

However, these thorns have grown for more than twenty years, and the branches inside are dense and tough, so it is very difficult to cut them off with a short sword.

It’s not that the Goblin thought of setting fires, but I encountered it once in a nearby village two years ago.

However, the biggest function of the thorn wall is early warning, and the fireworks are enough for the villagers to retreat to the village wall to defend.

After repelling the Goblin attack, the village refilled the seedlings of thorns, and then went to the city's adventurers Guild to invite a witch and her daughter to cast the spell, and it was basically recovered in half a day.

The shaking thorns well indicated the location of the goblins trying to penetrate the wall. When they were more than four meters away from the other side of the wall, the villagers began their next move.

The peasant women who do farm work all day long are very strong. Two or three of them are holding a six-meter-long super spear together. They first set it in the fence hole behind the wall, and yell slogans at the shaking position of the thorns, and then squeal.

Except for one of the super long spears that was pierced on the thicker thorn strips and returned ineffectively, all the others were harvested. When they were taken back, the head of the spear was covered with goblin's blood.

There was no movement in the thorny wall, and the goblin outside let out an anxious shout.

The peasant women did not relax. They slapdated several times before stopping.

Next they will pay attention to the movement of this thorny wall. If there is still a goblin coming, then poke it again.

Even if there is a goblin passing through the wall of thorns, it is fine, and people have upgraded this defense system in practice.

Behind the wall is a circle of two or three meters high fences. The holes in the fence are not enough for the goblins to drill over. When they climb up, they will expose their belly to the people opposite the fence.

The retired adventurers on the watchtower blew a small trumpet with a specific signal, and the men behind the gate suddenly became nervous.

They lined up in two rows in a "∧" shape behind the door, and placed the ruling horse that was originally placed beside the door in front of them. At the same time, they inserted the pointed tail of the kiln shield to the ground, hiding their entire body behind the shield, and stretched out the spear in their hands.

In the next battle, what they had to do was to stab the spear in their hands and dig the spear head into the green body before the weapon in the Goblin's hand hit him.

Taking advantage of this, several people pulled up a few ropes on the horse's feet and prepared to trip over the goblin that rushed in.

This is also what people have figured out from years of battles. Goblins lying on the ground are better than those who are lively and jumping.

Some villages also prepared nail boards, waiting for the goblin to fall and lie on their own, and it is very effective against wild beasts.

A knock sounded quickly on the door, but the door was made of very strong wood, and it would take a while for the simple weapons and strength of the Goblins to achieve results.

The sound rang for about ten minutes, and the wooden door was still standing there, and the shouts outside seemed to be irritated.

There was a rumbling sound from the watchtower, and the villagers behind the gate immediately stood up and took five steps back, and then re-established the defense line.

The goblin shaman outside took action. He waved his simple magic wand and a magic blew up the wooden door. The thick wooden door suddenly turned into pieces.

The door opened, and the goblins roared excitedly, and rushed into the village like wild dogs.

However, there is still a big killer waiting for them in the village.

At the top of the villagers' "∧" array are three shelves placed on the ground. On the shelves are thick wooden stakes more than one meter long. A round hole was taken out in the middle of the wooden stakes, and a stream of white smoke was emitted from the tail.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three pine cannons directly facing the gate fired almost at the same time, and the stone projectiles as big as fists flew towards the gate at extremely high speed.

At such a close distance, the goblins were broken and broken at all the places where the stone bomb passed.

Especially the Goblin Shaman who had just cast a spell in front of the gate, had a big hole in his chest.

It is not realistic to equip the village with metal cannons, but weapons like pine wood cannons are still OK.

The Goblin, who was still alive outside the village, was confused and didn't know whether to advance or retreat for a while.

On the chessboard of the gods, a "?" dice was quietly stopped beside a village chess piece.

The village is very lucky, and another goblin community with a population of about 30 is also making the idea of ​​this village, and time has come.

As soon as these goblins arrived, they saw the door of the village open wide, and rushed over excitedly.

At first, the goblins saw similar people coming, and rushed into the village excitedly.

The close battle began.

Several farmers were guarding the front of the pine cannon with wall shields. Someone behind them used a water-stained mop to extinguish the fire in the cannon chamber, and then began to load gunpowder and shells.

A pine cannon can only fire three times, and now they have six shots left.

The fully armed farmers had returned to the back of the defense line and took advantage of the opportunity when the Goblin was in front of the door and stabbed the spear in his hand towards them.

What these farmers practice the most over the years is shield blocking and spear stabbing targets. Moreover, they are not newbies who have never seen blood. It is not the first time that wild beasts and goblins enter the village. The accuracy of stabbing goblins in battle is no worse than stabbing their wife in bed.

For a moment, the group of goblins were blocked in the open space behind the door that was surrounded by horses.

Behind the farmer, their wives and young children also wore armed clothes, some threw javelins at the goblins, and some attacked with slingshots or short bows.

At this time, another cannon sounded, and a pine cannon used four relatively small projectiles this time, cleaning up the goblins on a small fan in front of them.

One of the projectiles flew a little higher, and beat several goblins outside the gate to pieces.

The farmers on both sides immediately cursed because the instructor said that it was forbidden to use shotguns in this situation.

Fortunately, the angle of the formation is sufficient, which is greater than the angle of the spread of the shotgun, otherwise the village would have been lost today because of its own people's random messing around.

The tragic casualties seemed to arouse the bloodiness of the goblins. The group of goblins who came from behind rushed into the village with their shields led by the leader who was two circles stronger than other goblins.

"Boom! Boom!"

The other two pine wood cannons used a large projectile this time, and two blood paths extending outside the door instantly appeared in front of them.

The Goblin leader who happened to be standing in the middle of the bloody road was stunned. At this time, a pebble shot from a slingshot hit his face hard, instantly exploding one of his eyes.

Two javelins with flames pierced on his shoulders and legs one after another, and the hot flames burned the clothes he stolen from him.

The torch-like goblin leader ran to the side in panic and was finally stabbed into the throat by a spear.

The remaining ten goblins suddenly lost their morale and turned around and fled to the woods outside the village.

At this moment, there was a sound of horse hooves and the sound of sabers being unsheathed outside the village.
