Vikings: Journey of the Juggernaut

Chapter 173 The World’s Strongest Army

"Lord Markit!!"

The surrounding White Bone Mountain warriors could hardly believe their eyes. The powerful lord with the name of "Evil Ghost Warrior" fell like this.

In sight, the chain-mailed scimitar army rushed over like a tsunami.

Behind the scenes, the ogres, the faceless men, the blood bat Noah with the whale-tooth sword, and even Rayleigh among the Calamity Knights all felt a little regretful.

Killing the opponent's strongest leader is not only a matter of how much the head is worth, but also a huge reputation.

However, after all, only one person can obtain this kind of honor. Currently, there are five northern generals on the battlefield: God of War Kulag, Giant Deer Zarji, Headless Mamres, Frost Giant Gygaru, and Scarlet Giant Ax Redmond. ;

There are nearly twenty war commanders and countless captain-level combat forces. If you want to compete for such top honors, it is hard to come by.

Since he missed it, Rayleigh could only vent his energy on the surrounding hostile warriors. Under the blessing of the violent state, he could resist the spear with one hand and draw the sword out of its sheath, just like the god of war.

From the wide perspective of the eagle eye, the remaining elite combat forces around Market were quickly overwhelmed by the chain-mail scimitar army and the leaderless war whale army.

As Zalki's left arm blade raised Markit's head, a deafening roar of warriors sounded from the coastline:

"Giant deer!"

"Giant deer!"

The remaining White Bone Mountain warriors glanced in the direction of the shouts with their peripheral vision and saw the death of their lord in battle. A small number of warriors faced the Northerners with determination to die, while most of the warriors collapsed completely and turned around to flee.

The northern troops entered the clearing time.

……

On the top of the mountain, the non-warrior tribesmen of Niu Gui looked at the complete defeat of their own troops, and their hearts were filled with despair.

The battle lasted less than ten minutes and was almost over. Except for Niu Guishan, the warriors here were stronger than Crocodile City, Giant Territory, and Basho Territory.

The current scene, such a huge gap in combat power, is really unbelievable.

"Run, if you don't run, the people from the north will come and kill you." Someone warned.

Everyone quickly looked away and ran towards the other foot of the mountain in panic. The Mountain of Bones is open to wind from all sides, and you can go down the mountain wherever you go, praising Lord Markit for not building fortifications.

……

On the coastline below, the recalcitrant warriors had been completely killed, and some who had fled were being hunted down.

Most of the northern warriors stopped and began to finish off their wounds and collect corpses, and piled up the collected wealth separately.

In such a large-scale war, the spoils will be distributed uniformly. After all, it is not the credit of one army. If everyone is allowed to pick up what they have, it is inevitable that conflicts will arise between soldiers over robbing things.

"Pull all the corpses that have been finished and burn them together." The voice of the war whale Qing Jia slashing En spread in all directions.

Kurag held his sword in his hand, and his icy eyes swept across the entire coast stained red with blood. He couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.

This victory was simpler and easier than expected, and it was a great start.

Among them, Markit, the leader of the opponent, made a big contribution. He was so confident that he chose to face the enemy head-on, trying to block the Northern Army from the coast, and he paid the price with his life.

Before the war began, Kulag was confident that with the 2500 most elite warriors in the north, a head-on battle would be enough to destroy any force of similar numbers in the world, let alone the White Bone Mountain with almost half the number.

After this battle, I became more convinced that the Northern Army was the strongest army in the world. Even if it encountered five thousand elites, it could still defeat them.

The original plan may be changed.

……

Three sand clocks later, the battlefield was cleaned up, and Kurag led the soldiers to the site where dozens of corpses were neatly placed:

"May they be baptized on the Rainbow Bridge and enter the Hall of Valor with glory!"

These were all warriors from the northern border. They annihilated more than 60 people in White Bone Mountain at the cost of more than 80 warriors dying and more than 1400 warriors being seriously injured.

This battle can be described as a complete victory!

Many of these young warriors have excelled on the battlefield, such as Arkham, who killed two enemies, Whitebeard, who killed more than 20 enemies, and Hawkeye Rayleigh, who killed more than 30 enemies.

Kurag threw down the torch, and the flames burst into flames.

On the other side, more than a thousand corpses were thrown down from the torches. Those were the corpses of the White Bone Mountain warriors.

The coast was soon filled with smoke.

……

At the same time, Gemun the Growler of Niugui Mountain learned that his territory had been invaded, and immediately led more than a thousand warriors to support.

But on the way, they encountered a large number of fleeing tribesmen. These tribesmen were directly taken forward for questioning.

"Why are you fleeing?" Fire Bull Commander Ferdinand asked these cowards sternly.

A tribesman hurriedly replied: "Lord Markit died in battle, the soldiers were completely defeated, and the Bone Mountain is gone."

"What did you say?" Ferdinand was a little in disbelief. They had already rushed over to support him as soon as possible, and it had only been a long time before they were gone.

"What I said is true. In less than ten minutes, more than a thousand soldiers were defeated."

"The people in the North are too scary. They look like monsters."

"I've seen dozens of warriors whose size is no smaller than that of Fire Bull Commander."

"You're farting." Huo Niu's pupils were on fire. There are dozens of people who are no smaller than me. Are you kidding me?

"The terrifying Bone Frost Warriors are here. There are several figures, and they are much taller than the leader."

"Skeleton Warrior?" Gemun frowned, and when he saw a lot of escapees running in front of him, he roughly believed it.

Ferdinand the Fire Ox went over and asked, and got similar answers.

"Chief, are you still going to provide support?"

"Go back first and take a long-term view."

At present, the 1400 soldiers in Baigu Mountain cannot resist for even ten minutes, and it is obvious that they cannot go through anymore.

……

Under the setting sun, Kulag simply convened a meeting with the leaders on an open ground on the mountain peak.

"Next step, we have two strategies. The first strategy is to wait for Niu Guishan's troops to attack, then eliminate them and counterattack Niu Guishan."

Kurag continued, "Second strategy, Giant Mountain."

It is obviously not advisable to attack Niu Gui Mountain directly. As the headquarters of the Niu Gui tribe, it is heavily defended. If we attack like this, we will suffer heavy losses.

"The first strategy sounds good, but it is very passive. We don't know when Niuguishan will attack, so we can't wait forever."

It was Zharji who spoke out, "I propose the second strategy, to capture the Giant Mountain, so that we can connect with Lord Qingcao Pingyuan and increase our strength."

Everyone nodded and waited passively. If they couldn't wait, it would be a kind of torture and they would have to waste food and grass in vain.

"Wait for a few days. Our slightly injured warriors also need to recover, and the berserker warriors also need time to recover from their rage. And..."

Kurag then looked at the knife-cutting man next to Difu, "I remember your name is Biro."

"Yes, lord." Biro replied.

"Your mission is to send the seriously injured soldiers back to the north. As for the food and grass, the food stored in this territory is enough for us to last for half a month, so we will postpone the transportation for now."

"Ok."

"Also, more than 150 warships have all been sent back to the north."

"Send all the warships back to the north?"

Not only Biro, but also everyone else around him had doubts about Kulag's decision.

Kulag nodded: "Yes, if the main force goes to Giant Mountain and the Niugui people choose to attack here, they will not be able to defend it at all."

If we want to build more than 150 warships again, we may not be able to find so much suitable oak at the moment. It will take at least a few years, and we cannot leave them to be destroyed.

"I understand." Biro agreed.

"Then in the next few days, you will take the logistics team and be fully responsible for these two things." Kulag added.

"Lord, if all the warships are sent back to the north, what if the Giant Territory is not captured for a while and White Bone Mountain is recaptured by Niu Guishan in advance? What should we do then?" Zuo Shanying raised a possibility.

The food and grass in Baigu Mountain is only half a month. If they go to attack Giant Mountain, they will definitely not be able to defend it.

Julu couldn't help laughing: "Are you kidding? Our strength will not defeat the giants?"

The mountain eagle replied: "It's just a possibility."

"Zagler, you are too cautious but not courageous." Kurag replied.

The reason why I chose to keep the mountain eagle in the first place was because this leader lacked the courage and courage compared to Onien of the Firebird.

"In the Western Expedition, White Bone Mountain is not our end point, nor is the Giant Territory. Our goal is to completely defeat the Niugui tribe and occupy their land."

His icy eyes glanced at everyone, "Now that we are here, there is no need to go back until we are completely victorious. There is no use for the warship to stay here."

……

After the sunset meeting, the Northern Logistics Forces were transporting seriously injured personnel and warships back and forth, while the remaining personnel were recuperating. It was calm for a while, and they didn't wait for Niuguishan's counterattack for five days.

At the same time, in the Nine Snakes Leader, the flames in the leader's longhouse illuminated two figures who were talking.

"Isn't there a war between the Northern Territory and Niu Guishan yet?" The man in his prime, with his hair cut into snake-shaped whips, asked.

The news I got a few days ago is that the northern lord Kulag gathered all the strength of the territory and suddenly launched a large-scale attack on Bone Mountain. Markit and his regiment were defeated at the first touch and have been occupied.

"Maybe both sides are afraid." The young man with a round and flat face replied.

Hydera paused: "This is the best time to destroy the Niugui tribe, add some fire to them, and let's start attacking Crocodile City."

The Nine Snake Tribe and the Ox Demon Tribe have been fighting for many years, and neither can defeat the other. Now with the external force from the North, the balance has been broken.

The only unexpected thing is that the Kulag Army seems to be extremely powerful. After dealing with the Niugui Tribe, the Northern Territory will probably become the Nine Snakes Tribe's formidable enemy in the future.

But that is a matter of the future. The Niugui tribe is the real enemy now.

The northern border has a sparse population. Even if a part of the Niugui area is carved up, it will still have to face rebellions from the Niugui people from time to time. It will take a lot of time to get the tribes in the central region to surrender to the northern border.
