Chapter 287: The barbarians attacking (4 updates)
The battle begins on the third day.

The sentries of Blood Moon City discovered traces of the barbarians coming down.

With their superior numbers and equipment, they suppressed the opponent's sentries.

It was under this circumstance that they found out the movements of these barbarians.

They originally thought that these barbarians would be scattered across the vast plains, just like the barbarian wanderers scattered in many territories.

The result far exceeded their expectations!
The large barbarian army actually continued to move downwards, and they were aiming towards Harley's camp.

Harley breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt quite depressed.

"What are these barbarians doing? Do they have a grudge against us?"

After hearing Harley's soliloquy, 343, who was recording the information on the map, turned around with a smile:

"This is a good thing. It is better to deal with them once and for all than for them to scatter in the plains and become troubles and cancers that are difficult to eliminate in Blood Moon City!"

Shaking his head slightly, Harley Knight hesitated for a while and continued:

"I'm not worried about these barbarians. Judging from their movements, it's not troublesome to deal with them."

"However, in the future, more and more barbarians may enter from the northeast, which will greatly restrict our military strength. The east coast is not safe..."

A flash of red light flashed in his eyes, 343 seemed to have seen that scene.

She suddenly chuckled and stretched out her hand to click on the map.

That was the East Coast camp and bridgehead Matthew built!
Harley, who did not only know how to march and fight, vaguely understood the meaning of 343 and said thoughtfully:

"I seem to remember that this area belongs to the Borderlands."

"As long as a lord develops this area and builds villages and towns, he can occupy it..."

"Do you want the Gulf Territory to take over?"

"Can they stand it?"

The faint red light slowly disappeared from 343's eyes, and she took a deep look in the direction of Blood Moon City:

"Yes, Lord Matthew has such potential and ability."

"The most important thing is that Lord Matthew and the Gulf Lord are very rich. They can absorb more and more adventurers in Blood Moon City."

Harley knew that 343 did not tell all the reasons.

However, he didn't inquire deeply, and he didn't really care whether Matthew could withstand it. He just gave a gentle reminder:
"You have a good discussion with the Gulf Territory. If this gap can be plugged, more people can be arranged to flow in."

A bright smile broke out on his face, 343 knew Matthew's attitude towards the population, and lightly snapped his fingers:

"No problem, I am 80% sure to convince Lord Matthew."

"However, I have to warn those idiots not to provoke the Gulf Territory..."

He nodded silently, thinking about the troublesome style of the city lord, Harley thought about it simply.

It would be nice to have someone from the Gulf to help, lest there are holes everywhere that are difficult to mend.

After 3 days.

The wandering barbarian army finally arrived in front of the military camp in the second area.

Looking at their mighty scale, Harley Knight sneered:
"Let's see how long you can last!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud horn sounded from the opposite side.

Under everyone's stunned gaze, a large number of barbarian soldiers marched toward the camp.

Harley blinked in astonishment, and under everyone's surprised gaze, waved his hand and said directly:

"Ready to fight!"

A brutal fight began.

Bloodmoon City soldiers had the advantage of the geographical location.

The barbarian soldiers have the upper hand in personal combat effectiveness.

The two sides continued to scramble and fight around the low walls of the camp.

Matthew glanced at the battlefield below where there were dead and wounded, and was very decisive and did not choose to intervene.

He's not stupid.If he doesn't take action, it has nothing to do with him.

As long as you intervene, if you retreat midway or your teammates suffer heavy casualties, you will have to bear some responsibility.

With the current state of the two sides, they will at least have to fight for a long time, and the winner will not be decided in a few days.

Of course, Matthew had no intention of sitting idly by.

Take Yaya back to the rear of the barbarian army.

The supervisory team from the Gulf Territory has wandered here.

They relied on the long-range advantage of bows and crossbows to continuously suppress the barbarian sentries.

Once you seize the opportunity, you will strike without mercy.

In just half a day, the patrol area of ​​the barbarian sentinels had been squeezed into a very small area.

In this case, they are facing increasing pressure.

Elio looked at the attacking barbarians, and doubts emerged in his heart:
"What are they doing?"

Beelzebub, who was maintaining his weapons, slowly shook his head. He really couldn't understand the current behavior of these barbarian soldiers:
"I don't know. Anyway, their fighting power is not weak, but their equipment is very poor. The two sides can fight back and forth."

Matthew was vaguely aware of something, but he didn't say it clearly.

It's not that I don't want to join the battle, it's just that my men haven't arrived yet!

The first day of fighting between the two sides.

The elite barbarians suffered heavy losses, with more than 3000 casualties.

The casualties were staggering, and most of them lacked medical treatment.

Once they are injured, they can only wait to die

The defending Blood Moon City soldiers did not fare much better, with casualties reaching 3500.

Fortunately, most of the Blood Moon City soldiers were injured.

With the help of healing potions and group recovery spells, most can recover.

In terms of sustained combat capabilities, Bloodmoon City soldiers are significantly stronger.

After seeing the strength of these barbarian soldiers, the leading nobles of Blood Moon City became quite "behaved".

After successfully gaining absolute control, Harley Rider's job became even easier.

Order the reserve soldiers who did not participate in the battle to continue repairing the defenses.

He also dispatched other reserve troops as quickly as possible.

At the same time, he already knew that Matthew had arrived at the rear.

In his opinion, these barbarians are already turtles in the urn.

However, the other party's act of committing suicide made Harley Knight a little confused.

What is the purpose of doing this?
Harley didn't know, but he decided to kill these barbarians early to avoid long nights and nightmares.

The second day of the battle.

Harley's idea was ruined.

The barbarian soldiers who lost a lot on the first day still chose to attack by force on the second day, showing an attitude of not giving up until the goal was achieved.

The soldiers of Blood Moon City were caught and beaten again, and every leading noble suffered heavy losses.

While they felt very distressed, they also felt inexplicable fear of these barbarians.

Where did these barbarians come from?

Why are they attacking us?
If Matthew knew what they were thinking, he would definitely smile and say:

"No need to ask, you guys don't understand the language anyway!"

The Gulf Territory, which silently mobilized soldiers, has blocked the retreat of the barbarian soldiers.

Just waiting to make dumplings!
