Chapter 161, Victory
All the great knights were killed, and the mercenaries who had not yet attacked the wall were just a group of miscellaneous soldiers.
The arrow turned, and a rain of arrows fell again at the mercenaries rushing over. Several mercenaries who wanted to hold their thighs yelled on the wall: "Loves is dead!"
Captain Loves died?
The mercenaries of the Red Moon Mercenary Group were stunned and could not believe it, but the other mercenary groups believed it.
How much do you think about this? If Loves hadn't hung up, how could there be so many rains of arrows shooting from the wall?
All the mercenaries except the Red Moon Mercenary Group collapsed and turned around and fled. The Red Moon Mercenary who was escorting the formation behind continued to rush forward. I believe that the leader died will naturally take revenge, and I don’t believe that the leader died will not be said.
In short, as these two groups of mercenaries advanced and retreated, there was a conflict between them. The mercenaries who wanted to escape were blocked by their way, their eyes turned red, and they drew their swords toward each other. The people of the Red Moon Mercenary Group were also angry at this time. It was not just a matter of the leader's death. Want to escape? No way, go back for me!
There were even some mercenaries taking the opportunity to take revenge. After all, these mercenaries were not so harmonious, and they were more or less a little hatred, so they simply avenged them in this chaos.
The melee between the Red Moon Mercenary Group and its allies did not affect the rain of arrows shot from the wall.
Take advantage of the enemy's illness to kill him.
After Terence was sure that Loves was dead, he saw the mercenaries siege in chaos and could not sit still. After asking Jia Kedao for advice, all the mercenaries and flaming soldiers who were good at melee gathered together, opened the door and rushed out.
The rain of arrows fell on his head, and there were people around him fighting each other. Seeing the wall gate open, teams of people rushed out. At this time, even the brave and warlike mercenaries had to consider their own way of retreat.
I don’t know who shouted, and the Red Moon Mercenary at the end began to flee. This fleeing immediately led to the whole situation. As long as the guy who was not killed in the blood would withdraw, of course, if there was someone blocking his way out, they wouldn’t mind slashing down with one sword.
When Terence rushed into the battlefield with his captive mercenaries and flame soldiers, there were less than 300 mercenaries fighting on the battlefield, and there were about 300 mercenaries who had escaped, and more than 200 mercenaries were shot by arrow rain and fell down in chaos.
For those fleeing mercenaries, Terence only sent more than a dozen flame soldiers to pursue them, while the remaining people surrounded the battlefield and began to surrender.
There were only about 400 residents in the Aoki Valley, so these surrounded mercenaries naturally became a supplement in Terence's eyes.
Whether it is true or false, the surrounded mercenaries had to raise their hands to surrender. The goblin Cook, who was driven to the arrival, drove the Ruyi rope to tie it tightly and connected it into a string and was taken to the temple to guard it.
After relocating these prisoners, Terence chased after the remaining flame soldiers without stopping until at night, Terence and the flame soldiers rushed back with a large group of prisoners smiling.
In this battle, Aoki Valley gained and lost.
Of course, the losses are very small compared to the invading enemies. Aoki Valley lost more than 20 people in this battle, but most of them were captured mercenaries, three militiamen were killed, and one of the flame Taoist soldiers was accidentally injured.
On the other hand, the Red Moon Mercenary Group, among the invading enemies, 400 people were killed in the more than 1,000 people, and more than 500 were captured in front and behind. Only a few senior mercenary group escaped. After the war, they cleared the battlefield and obtained a large amount of weapons, equipment, even gold coins and other miscellaneous items, which was a great victory.
The work after the war was complicated. Jia Kedao dismissed most of the work to the management of Aoki Valley led by Terence. He only presided over the oath ceremony of the captured mercenaries. Of course, several prisoners who swear to death and refused to surrender to Aoki Valley were dragged out of the valley and dealt with.
In this battle alone, the total population of Aoki Valley soared from about 400 people before to more than 1,200, most of them were mercenaries who were licking blood from the knife.
To be honest, if any force had a trembling heart when facing such a situation, but Jia Kedao was different. These mercenaries had made swears in the temple, and their souls were caught by the Land Lord in their hands. If they wanted to rebel, the result would definitely not be what they were willing to see. For this, those mercenaries were warned by their previous seniors after the oath ceremony.
Even if someone wants to do something, he dare not expose it. When he puts his ideas into action, he realizes that the oath is really effective.
Of course, there is no need to mention these things. Every guy who deserves to swear reminds others, which has played a good educational role.
However, the skyrocketing population of more than 800 people even mercenaries who often go out to sleep in the open need a place to live.
But the stone house built this time was not in the Aoki Valley, and Jia Kedao directly placed these mercenaries in a small town about five or six kilometers away from the Aoki Valley.
It is impossible for the Aoki Valley to accommodate so many people at the same time. Besides, the grain reserves in the Aoki Valley are insufficient.
Therefore, the town that was slaughtered by the desert army and became a dilapidated town became the residence for Jia Kedao to resettle these mercenaries.
The advantage of this is that you only need to clean the town thoroughly and these mercenaries can move in.
The only disadvantage is that it may attract the desert army entrenched in Lion City.
Of course, this is just a possibility. Besides, so many mercenaries are not vegetarians. Once they are equipped with the excellent weapons brought by Jia Kedao from the earth, the combat effectiveness of these mercenaries should not be underestimated. You should know that there are about twenty swordsmen, rangers, and night thieves in it.
Once the town is re-activated, the wheat fields around the town will be taken care of, making the Aoki Valley no longer lacking in food.
Jia Kedao is going to hand over this task to Terence, while Aoki Valley is taken over by those Taoist children to temper their abilities. Jia Kedao is unwilling to teach a group of guys who can only meditate and go to the valley of meditation to escape from the world.
However, when Jacobito called Terence, he got good news. Terence actually broke through in the battle and leaped from a ranger to a great ranger!
This is naturally good news for Aoki Valley.
Although he was bound by oath, the mercenary's human heart was still a problem. Before, Jia Kedao planned to send Terence to go, but he was worried that he would not be able to suppress the situation.
After all, Terence was just a ranger, and among the mercenaries there were five rangers alone, not to mention swordsmen and night thieves.
