Chapter 210 Unparalleled Horses and Horses
There were five tribes of centaurs who were driven out of Maraudon the first time, namely Kokar, Magram, Maraudi, Kyrgyz and Galak.
The Galak centaur tribe had already completely migrated out of this land due to defeat in the war. If Charlemagne's memory is correct, the centaur tribe should have moved to Thousand Needles now.
Among the remaining four tribes, the Maraudine clan is the most powerful. They occupied most of the land in the Valley of the Spears near the holy land of Maraudon.
Of the other three tribes, Kocal has the largest population, but its strength is also the most scattered. The centaurs of this tribe are scattered throughout the entire Desolace, and their Khan Dezpa can't restrain his own power at all. All subordinates.
The remaining two tribes, Gilgil and Magram, are of equal strength. Under the leadership of the two Khan Jain and Shaka, they fight each other all the year round.
Due to the relatively detached status of the Maraudi tribe, they basically do not participate in the plundering of the outside world, and mainly rely on the tribute of the other three tribes. The main attacks on the tauren are the Kocal tribe scattered throughout Desolace.
This time the Gilghis and Magram joining the attack on the tauren is a very bad signal, which means that the two tribes that were attacking each other have temporarily reached an agreement, and the three centaur tribes started to plunder the tauren at the same time. It would be a devastating blow... if the high elves hadn't come.
The ghost sentry next to the Kodo cemetery is a front-line outpost of the Tauren. At this time, Kane led all the chiefs here, and Charlemagne, who was nominally the commander-in-chief of the high elves for this operation, also brought them here. Liadrin and Saladre accompanied them all the way.
"It's not good... They really have a temporary truce."
Kane looked at the large number of centaurs that had gradually gathered in the east with worry. For some reason, the two tribes with feuds, the Gilghis and the Magram, unexpectedly united temporarily. The joining of the two tribes made Desolace's vast eastern plain There are a large number of centaurs densely covered on the ground.
Liadrin and Saradley frowned as they looked at the terrifying number of enemies.
"Although I probably know the number of these centaurs from Charlemagne, it's too much..."
Based on a preliminary visual estimate, there are more than 10,000 centaurs in front of us, and they are all young and strong in the clan. If the centaurs who are all soldiers mobilize their full potential, this number will be multiplied by at least several times or even ten times.
Although centaurs are not low in fertility, the survival rate of their cubs is really not high because of the perennial conquest of each other. A large number of centaurs die almost every day.
But this naturally savage race doesn't care about this situation, they will still continue their endless plunder until there is only the last person left in the tribe.
Although the tauren have a population of more than 100,000, due to the harsh living environment and food shortage in Desolace, they can only support an army of about 1,000 people.
Besides, due to the lack of iron ore resources and the extremely primitive craftsman level, most tauren warriors can only wear simple leather armor and stone weapons.
The totem pole, the representative weapon of the tauren, is actually a kind of helplessness for them. If there is a sharp iron tool, who would want to use this kind of big pillar that can only be hit by quality.
Fortunately, the high elves sent reinforcements. Although the number of centaurs of the three tribes is very large, their equipment, which is worse than that of the tauren, is actually difficult to deal damage to the paladins who have excellent defense and wear enchanted armor. Too much damage.
Most centaurs don't even have leather armor, basically their upper body is bare, and the arrows they shoot are still sharpened stones. If it weren't for their mobility like the wind, they would have been killed by the infinite force. The tauren were beaten to pieces.
Charlemagne looked at the three khans who were mobilizing in front of their respective tribes in the distance and thought for a while.
"Chief Kane, you said that there was animosity between these two tribes. I can see it. If it weren't for the mediation of the Kocal tribe between the Kyrgyz and Magram tribes, I think these two tribes have fought for countless years. Old enemies are not so easy to unite."
"Then think about it the other way around, can we find an opportunity to decapitate the chief of the Kocal tribe? As long as there is no matchmaker, I am afraid that there will be chaos among the three tribes?"
Kane and Hamuir were taken aback at the same time, but Magatha's eyes lit up and he answered first, "Your way of thinking about the problem is very interesting."
"Indeed, Khan Dezpa of Kokar is a well-known cunning among the centaurs. Although his own leadership is not outstanding, he is best at drawing big cakes to fool his subordinates with a smooth tongue. of."
The thinking circuit of ordinary centaurs is relatively straightforward. Except for a few spellcasters in the clan, most of them are used to using their fists more than their brains.
But Dezpa is an exception. Although this guy's own strength is obviously inferior to that of Jayne and Shaka, he is still a hero-level combat power, and he is barely passable as a Khan.
But his brain is obviously more crooked than other centaur khans. Although he doesn't know exactly what benefits he promised to the two tribes, it is probably about the ownership of the prey tauren this time, but will he abide by it in the end? It is difficult to say what is agreed in advance.
At this time, Barre pinched his long beard on his chin, looked at the tall centaur among the three tribes and said, "That is to say... as long as we kill this Dezpa Khan, the alliance between the three tribes will be closed." Is there a high chance of crashing?"
Magasa showed a ferocious smile and said, "Simply put, that's it, so now the problem is simple, let's find a way to directly attack the Kocal tribe and kill him."
After the preliminary strategy has been finalized, the plan needs to be filled in gradually.
Charlemagne, who returned to the sentry tent, looked at Saladley, who had a strong desire for war, and said to the chiefs and generals present, "I need to understand the combat effectiveness of centaurs, although I know that these centaurs are mobile when they attack. Strong, but what about their defense?"
Kane snorted disdainfully, "To be honest, there is no difference between having or not having the centaur's naked and unarmored defense. As long as they can seal their mobility, these guys are no better than wild beasts." .”
"Seal the mobility..."
Hearing what Kane said, Charlemagne showed a thoughtful expression, as if he had thought of some strategy.
Thanks to book friends "ylanf" and "hanhzx" for their support.
