Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
[Hahaha, he was stunned by the streamer!]
[The kobold isn't smart enough. He was KO'd by just one question!]
[The streamer has way fewer people than the kobolds. Can he defeat the kobolds?]
The viewers in the livestream started to worry when they saw the situation of the troops behind Lin Tian. Compared to the number of kobolds, Lin Tian had fewer people with him. He could not even defeat half of the kobolds. In fact, the people who were worried were not only the viewers in the livestream, but also the fox tribe.
The kobold tribe leader spoke in a sinister tone, "So you're saying that you're going to interfere today no matter what?"As he spoke, his gaze had been scanning the soldiers and the taurens behind Lin Tian, as if evaluating the odds of victory. He was not worried about the humans, but the taurens' combat strength was strong, and they even had weapons in their hands!
Lin Tian replied, "That's right. From now on, the foxes will also be attached to me. They are my people. No one can hurt them without my permission! If you want to fight, then come at me!"
[The streamer is awesome!]
[The streamer is what a real man should be like!]
Hearing Lin Tian's words, the foxes became worked up. Not only was Lin Tian willing to take them in, but he was also willing to help them! Facing the kobolds who were far more numerous than them, Lin Tian did not have the slightest fear. He accepted the battle in a domineering manner, which made the foxmen fully acknowledge him! Especially Wendy, who looked at Lin Tian with even more fervent eyes! Her gaze was caught by Mary, which gave her an inexplicable sense of threat.
Unlike the foxmen, when the kobold tribe leader heard Lin Tian's words, his face turned even gloomier. "If that's the case, then don't blame me for being merciless! Warriors, come with me! Half of us will attack the taurens, and the other half will attack the humans!"
The kobold tribe leader was very decisive. When he saw that there was no room for negotiation, he immediately roared and announced the start of the battle! The kobolds began to move one after another. They split into two groups and charged toward the taurens and Lin Tian's army!
In Lin Tian's army, the leader, Daniel, shouted, "Prepare for battle!"
Dozens of spearmen immediately stood in a row. With a shout, they pointed their spears in front of them. Behind them were a hundred sword-shield soldiers. They pushed toward the kobolds together!
Seeing the kobolds charging over, the tauren chief did not show any fear either. He waved his ax and charged forward.
"Charge!"
The kobolds and the taurens were only a hundred meters apart. Under the situation where both sides were charging, they closed the distance in the blink of an eye. The kobolds at the front were very fast, but when they faced the taurens that were as strong as a hill, they subconsciously cowered.
However, there were stone-throwers among the kobolds. Before the taurens could get close, a large number of sharp stones immediately smashed toward the taurens. The taurens raised the shield in their hands and with a series of clanging sounds, the stones were firmly blocked.
Roar!
The tauren chief at the very front had already rushed in front of the kobolds. He raised his ax and chopped down! The kobolds in front of him also had shields in their hands, but simple wooden items could not block the ax at all. The kobolds had just raised their shields when they were cut into two halves by the two-sided ax. From this, it could be seen how terrifying the tauren's power was.
The taurens at the back also rushed forward one after another. One of the kobolds used his weapon to attack a tauren. The tauren raised its shield and rammed into the kobold. In the end, not only did the kobold not break the shield but it was even was sent flying after its arms were broken by the tauren.
More kobolds died under the taurens' two-sided ax. The strength of the taurens combined with the sharpness of the two-sided ax was beyond imagination. The kobolds' equipment was not very good, to begin with, and they were very weak against the taurens.
Hence, just as the battle started, most of the kobolds that charged at the front were already killed by the taurens. The taurens that wielded the two-sided ax were very agile. After killing one of the kobolds, they immediately pulled out the two-sided ax and slashed at another kobold. One after another, they killed the enemy efficiently.
[The taurens are too powerful!]
[D*mn, it's too bloody!]
[Who can withstand Brother Tauren's attack!]
[Is this real or fake?]
[What happened? I stopped watching for a bit and now there's a big battle?!]
On the battlefield, Lin Tian was very happy to see how powerful the taurens were. He bought a lot of food to feed them every day, and it was indeed not in vain. After all, the taurens each ate a few hundred yuan every day.
Fortunately, they only ate two meals a day, so they consumed around 50 catties of food a day. Even 50 catties of white rice cost more than 100 yuan, not to mention that Lin Tian had to feed them a lot of meat.
In other words, Lin Tian had to feed 100 taurens every day, which cost tens of thousands of yuan, which was more than what the 1,000 workers ate! With such a large appetite, no wonder no baron-level nobles could afford to feed so many taurens! However, they had shown their corresponding value now. Their combat strength was shockingly powerful!
"Surround them!" As he saw the kobolds get defeated by the taurens at the start of the battle, the kobold tribe leader immediately began to command.
He led a group of kobolds and charged at the taurens, attempting to surround them. However, the taurens were not stupid. They quickly gathered in groups and covered each other. Within a short period of time, many more kobolds died.
At the same time, the kobolds on the other side also began to fight with the humans. However, before they could reach the soldiers, they were met with numerous arrows.
There were only a dozen or so arrows, but there were 50 crossbowmen. When they fired a round of crossbows, many of the kobolds at the front would be killed. A dozen or so archers continuously shot out from the back of the group, killing many of the kobolds. By the time the kobolds reached the spear forest formed by the spearmen, more than 300 kobolds had already died, and their advantage in numbers was gone.
Then, they were taught a lesson by the sharp spears. 50 spears stabbed at them simultaneously, and immediately, more than a dozen kobolds were stabbed to death. The other kobolds tried to bypass the spear formation, but what awaited them were more than a hundred sword-shield soldiers.
At this moment, the second round of arrows from the 50 crossbowmen was ready. They fired at the same time and took away dozens of kobolds. At such a close distance, the simple wooden shield in the hands of the kobolds was useless. In short, the kobolds did not take away even one of Lin Tian's soldiers, but more than a hundred of them had died.
Very soon, the sword-shield soldiers also went forward to fight. In terms of physique, the kobolds were stronger than the humans. However, before the battle began, they had been chasing the foxmen continuously, which consumed a lot of their stamina. Right after they began fighting the sword-shield soldiers, the kobolds were already at a disadvantage.
Their weapons were far inferior to the sword-shield soldiers. Moreover, some of the kobolds did not even have an iron knife, only wooden sticks. With wooden sticks of such quality, even if they were hit, Lin Tian's soldiers could resist the attacks and kill their opponents, not to mention that they had very good quality shields in their hands.
