Chapter 171, unwise decision, roar of flag, blanket of rat war
The edge of Four Seasons Ranch.
The city where the Rat War ended was never completed.
Even though corpses and blood are almost piled up in every corner of this grassland.
No more scavenging teams rushed to this place.
Everything was over. When Shu Zhan left Prairie City and rushed here, they had no chance. Shu Zhan would not pity these guys, even if they put everything into the construction of this city.
An invested rat priest hanged himself in the passage in front of Rat War.
His eyes were red and he would not close his eyes until death.
But all he got in exchange was Shu Zhan's sneer.
A command, let out a little news.
A large group of rat priests, big-clawed priests, and captains of scavenger teams, these cockroach-like guys swarmed in again.
They will also put everything on themselves.
A large number of slave rats moved during the whipping. Even though the war was not over yet and the harassing enemies had not retreated, this did not affect anything.
A huge number of slave rats gathered into a mighty team and marched hard on this grassland.
In the whipping of the leader.
No rat man has no confidence in rat war. As a qualified commander, rat war is cruel and crazy, but it can bring victory.
Of course, this is not a good thing for the scavenger teams hired by the last batch of urban investors.
Especially for the group of guys who are still trapped in the messy ruins that have become a mess during the continuous fighting.
They only received a little reward, and it was impossible to get the rest. Most of the employees chose to die out of despair.
And in addition to this, there is another problem that is placed in front of them.
The wolf knight commander was becoming increasingly impatient.
The scavenger teams no longer come, so is it still necessary for this urban ruins to serve as bait?
A large number of argali knights and wolf knights gathered outside the ruins of the city.
In this ruins, there is only a towering flag in the distance.
A ratman wearing broken armor climbed to a high place. A whole winter passed, and in this long battle, the armor on Qi's body became more and more broken.
Tiny traces were engraved on this broken armor.
Raise the flag high.
He has almost gathered the Ratmen in this ruins.
A large number of rat warriors gathered around him and gathered under the banner he held high.
Because of that lie, because of the promise that was made.
Also because of the wars that happened again and again during the long winter.
The ruins are also filled with rat-man corpses, these stiff corpses that have been preserved in the cold winter.
Qi now has 10,000 rat warriors in his hands.
There was not much hope, facing the enemy troops gathering outside the city.
Even escaping is difficult to do.
In this vast grassland, facing these running knights, running randomly will only hasten your own death.
It's not that there are no ways to deal with it.
An underground passage dug by slave rats was brought into view by Qi. It was an underground passage dug by a group of slave rats hungry for life in fear.
Excavations began soon after the ruins of the city became an isolated city on the steppe.
It was built by secretly dismantling the stone strips on the ruins of the city.
It just didn't work out.
An argali knight who fell into the passage frightened the cowardly guys, so that they did not dare to show their heads again and hid in the dark underground.
The passage of time and the lack of food brought about a chaotic cannibalism.
Until the intersection of the underground passage was discovered when Qi was clearing his position.
This underground passage is a definite possibility of survival.
Flag didn't tell any of the Skaven.
But at this time he was confused.
Don't know what decision to make.
The flag on the high ground looked at the large number of troops gathered outside the city. In this harsh winter, the army under the wolf knight commander also suffered a lot of losses, but compared to the rat people gathered in the ruins, their strength was In comparison, it is still in a crushing state.
Look at the rat people gathered in front of you.
These are the troops he finally recruited and the bargaining chips he finally accumulated. If he gives up, he will have nothing.
This made him extremely confused.
Standing at the highest point of the ruins, all the surviving ratmen in the ruins were looking up to him.
In that inexplicable emotion.
Waiting for Flag's decision.
In a short time, the huge team gathered on the grassland not far away had already begun to charge.
The scattered ravines in this city can no longer stop these guys from charging.
In the fight after fight, these ravines have been filled with the corpses of both sides.
Flag must make a choice as soon as possible.
This is a difficult decision to make.
The mixed force composed of argali knights and wolf orc knights was getting closer and closer to the ruins.
The answer seems obvious, because the rat men gathered in these ruins simply cannot defeat the incoming enemy troops.
Flag made his choice.
Amidst the waving flags, the assembled troops began to surge.
An unwise choice.
The decision was made with red eyes and gritted teeth.
Loud shouts.
The content of the lecture was still the same two sentences repeated over and over again.
"Follow me! I will bring you merit!"
But it was extremely effective against the rat men who gathered in front of him.
Noisy shouts echoed through the messy ruins.
This group of ratmen believed Qi's words as they shouted over and over again.
And Qi, well, Qi’s choice was not wise.
But he couldn't abandon the army in front of him, so he decided to take a gamble.
Bet that you can defeat this mixed knight force in front of you.
If he couldn't win, he would escape into the underground passage.
He is not a qualified gambler, he does not have many chips, and he takes the chips in his hand too seriously.
But very rat-like.
Swelling with never-ending greed.
The two sides collided in this ruins.
This is the most difficult battle that the Wolf Knight commander has fought in this period of time. Even though the ratmen here are still in a mess, the number is not enough.
Many larger teams of ratmen were easily eaten by him.
But these guys in front of them are obviously much tougher and crazier.
Many Skaven completely believed Flag's words.
It just can't change the direction of the war.
The rat men kept falling down, and Qi's eyes were completely red.
He completely left the matter of the underground passage behind him, waving the flag with a sharp scream.
But there were fewer and fewer rat men gathering around him.
The fighting on this grassland is about to cease.
A group of wolf knights broke through the ratmen's defense line and rushed straight towards the flag standing high.
But this angered the gathered rat warriors.
Fearless and fearless, they rushed toward the group of wolf knights who broke into the front line.
The red-eyed flag still wanted to fight down, but was held back by a few skinny rat men.
He cannot die, he has placed too many expectations on the rat people, and that is the expectation that these guys still long for even if they die.
Qi wanted to break away, but the angry gaze melted away instantly after meeting the eyes of the rat men who were pulling him.
What a sight that is.
These are some truly insane sights.
These were rat-men who were either thin or short, born without tails or ears. Their future destiny was destined from the moment they were born.
Even if they don't want to accept it.
His crazy eyes were focused on Qi with pleading and desire.
"You promised us!
You promised us!
You have to live! You have to remember! "
In the harsh whisper, Qi shuddered and nodded subconsciously.
Uncontrollable joy appeared on these guys' faces.
The flag was carried and the breakout began.
These thin, inferior rat warriors are risking their lives to pave the way for this young rat warlord.
Amidst the sharp neighing, he left the messy ruins with the flag and ran wildly on the grassland.
Then die.
They simply couldn't outrun the group of running argali knights and wolf knights.
There are fewer and fewer rat warriors around Ban.
An argali knight broke through the rat warriors surrounding the flag and bumped straight towards him.
A guy with one missing ear jumped over and blocked Qi's blow.
But the flag was still affected.
Rolling around in this grassland in embarrassment.
He still held the rough flag, but the rat warriors who followed him had disappeared.
He looked around confusedly at the scene around him.
The young guy lost all his chips, and maybe his life.
Just this time.
The argali knights and wolf knights who were chasing after them stopped.
Hata saw uneasy expressions on these guys.
Don't know what happened.
But he had lost all his money.
In anger, he climbed up from the grass, raised the flag in his hand high, and roared loudly at the guys in front of him.
"Come on! You damn guys!"
Death is approaching.
But at this moment he was not afraid.
Loud shouts.
He is braver and more fearless than ordinary rat men.
He always thought he would be a hero.
It's like a rat war.
Although at least three out of ten young ratmen would have this idea, the other seven thought that they would become a great priest gifted by the gods.
Loud roar with distorted face.
"I am a hero!"
But this fearless look and loud roar stopped abruptly in an instant, as if something had strangled his throat.
Didn't hold up.
The wolf knights and argali knights turned around and began to flee.
A group of silent knights passed by the flag, and a bad voice sounded.
"Oh? Hero!"
His body became stiff, and the ferocious expression on his face instantly froze. When he turned his head, he saw a familiar face.
Without much hesitation, he fell to his knees, his body trembling a little more. This is our future hero.
in front of him.
A nasty guy riding a giant rat and carrying a complicated and gorgeous black dragon flag grinned, and his eyes dropped with interest.
Rat War found an interesting guy, at least more interesting than most of his rat warlords.
Soon after, Rat Zhan led the rat knights and ran away, chasing the fleeing argali knights and wolf knights in front of them.
He saw some fresh faces among these guys, and the fur on his body looked very dense and warm. He urgently needed a warm fur pad.
The dull-looking flag was left behind.
He got Rat Zhan's attention, but unfortunately, such attention would not bring much benefit.
It's not a good thing to be watched by this nasty guy.
But it's not like there are no benefits. Rat War saved Banner a war.
Next, as long as he does not die after serving as a vanguard five times, then he will be a rat warlord.
It went from a basically impossible challenge to an unlikely one.
But it was obvious that Qi was not willing to give up.
He stood up, waved the battle flag in his hand, took steps in the direction where the rat war left, and chased him away.
The wolf knight commander finally knew how these weak guys defeated the sheep orcs and argali tribe, although he knew it a little late.
The speed of the Dire Knight is no slower than that of the Argali Knight, and is even slightly faster than that of the Wolf Knight.
And the goals of these guys are very clear.
The wolf knight commander carrying the flag.
Because of Rat War’s orders.
This hairless guy desperately needs a warm blanket.
The ferocious knight ignored the fleeing argali knight.
It ran straight into the gathering of wolf knights and bit the wolf knight commander who wanted to lead the team away.
Behind them, a large number of rat knights, led by the towering flags, were not far away.
The Wolf Knight Commander encountered the same problem as the old One-Eye.
There was nothing he could do against these ferocious knights who were armed like cans.
Even though there were not many troops, they were still tightly entangled, and these guys were different from the rabble gathered in the scavenging teams.
It was a bit difficult to deal with at once.
The defense line in front of him was quickly broken, and these guys were coming towards him.
damn it!
This made the wolf knight commander become furious, especially when he found that there were not that many troops chasing behind him.
Under his mobilization, the wolf knights quickly gathered around.
Decided to eat all these arrogant guys.
Do you think you can eat him steadily with these more than a thousand tin cans?
He stopped retreating and began to fight with the fierce knights who were entangled with him.
Of course, even if the Dire Knight is fully armed, as an elite among the Ratmen, he will still be damaged during the siege and there will be casualties.
It's even easier for Wolf Knights to deal with Dire Knights.
Although the giant wolf was unable to bite through the full body armor of the ferocious knights, its powerful tearing and shaking could still kill these ferocious knights.
But this cannot be regarded as a wise choice.
Stopping to tangle with these rat people is really not a wise choice.
