Starting My New Life As An Adventurer
Goblin Horde
Inside an old building far from the village. Hidden within the trees and thick fog...
Seen a figure in very magnificent clothes, it was likely that he was a great noble.
"It's naive that you line up on the edge of that forest waiting like you're gonna win."
The man stood on a balcony in the building drinking a glass of wine and gulping it down.
"It's a pity that I have to flatten the place, Rondo touji is a talented man.It's a pity that his village has to disrupt my plans."
"But something has to be sacrificed anyway... HAHAHA." The evil cry of the man echoed and was hidden behind the dense fog in the middle of nowhere.
...
(Third day the team is on standby)
There was a total of a thousand combined forces from the village as well as the bandits who had already formed a formation right at the northern edge of the village. With an additional fifty men as scouts in the forest.
Eugene and also Vaustine stood in the middle of the army looking at all the preparations their soldiers were making.
"How are you prepared." Eugene asked one of his aides.
"All are ready captain, our troops can fight at any time." His adjutant answered with confidence.
"Vaustine, what about your members?" Eugene asked him
"Just calm down, they don't need formations like you. They'll kill well immediately." Vaustine answered confidently.
Nowadays, everyone is barely talking. Everyone just fell silent waiting for the report from the scouting force from within the forest.
"Goblin is coming!!!! The first wave estimated three hundred goblins!" The voice of one of the scouts broke the silence of the troops on the forest edge.
Hearing that voice some novice warriors started to panic and tremble between the rows. Eugene instantly raised his sword and motivated all of his soldiers.
"Everyone, strengthen your resolve! Today you will be known as the protective heroes of the village. My soldiers, take up your weapons!"
*Ggraack!!! Instantly hundreds of goblins emerged from within the forest hinting at the beginning of the war.
"They!!!!!!"
Quickly the vanguard, the long spear squad managed to finish off the hundreds of goblins. Dozens of people were wounded but there were no casualties on the part of the joint force.
" Curtain the wounded soldier immediately, prepare for the second wave!" Eugene immediately directed his soldiers and prepared to return.
"The second wave is coming! There are estimated to be five hundred goblins this time!" Shouts of a soldier from the forest.
"Everyone's ready!"
The second wave was overcome. Five hundred people were injured and dozens of people had to die in this wave. The front long spear line was almost destroyed.
" Cih, all the wounded soldiers are retreating, and for the fallen soldiers leave it alone first, we don't have time!" An annoyed face mixed with sadness Eugene was clearly visible.
"The third wave is coming! Estimated seven hundred goblins!" One of the scouts shouted.
Seven hundred goblins were fighting the combined defense forces, the vanguard of the spear had been destroyed and currently the goblins were fighting with the sword-wielding warriors.
Amidst their fierce fight a soldier came from inside the village shouting towards the battlefield that Eugene was leading.
"Captain! The captain! Nawat!!!" A soldier ran with his horse towards Eugene."
Eugene answered the soldier while killing some goblins.
"What's wrong, I hope your report is important. We're overwhelmed right now."
The soldier answered quickly.
"Captain, this is really bad. That horde of goblins scattered and attacked our food barn."
"What's!? How many?" Eugene frowned.
"Very many captains, more than a thousand goblins. All the soldiers on guard had already retreated. If we don't reclaim our barn, we'll run out of food."
" I see, I'm leaving right now. You preach this to the village hall." Eugene answered the soldier.
"Good captain."
After the soldier left Eugene immediately called out to Vaustine in the middle of the fight.
"The vaustine! Come here!" Eugene called.
Vaustine retaliates while killing a horde of goblins.
"You lead the war here. The village barn is being attacked by goblins. We think it's a thousand."
"Keep killing the goblin what's it?"
"I'll bring two hundred of my men. You and the rest stay here."
"Damn it, but this is only the third wave." Vaustine grumbled and continued to kill the goblin.
"My preparations are ready, good luck here Vaustine." Eugene quickly left the Northern border with two hundred men.
....
At the village hall. A few hours ago there was news that goblins had appeared at the Northern border. Everyone here gathered together and prayed for the victory of our troops.
When the anxiety haunts the entire village hall. A soldier with his horse came to the village hall in a hurry.
While looking from a distance, some residents thought the soldier was carrying news of victory. The soldier paid no heed to all the citizens' questions and ran straight to the village chief's office.
The soldier went straight into the grandfather's room and slammed the door when he opened it.
" Mister Rondo!!! Lusty!" The soldier shouted to grandfather.
the grandfather who was sitting at his desk along with Erika immediately stood up and immediately asked the soldier.
"What's up!?"
"Our roof is suddenly attacked by goblins. The barn guard troops were overwhelmed and retreated because the numbers were too many."
"Huh!? How's the condition of the barn now?" Grandpa was surprised by the panicked face.
"At this time the barn is overrun by goblins, I've reported this to captain Eugene and he's on his way to reclaim our barn."
"How many soldiers did he bring?"
"I don't know, but my estimate of fighting over a thousand goblins would need at least two hundred people."
"North forces are reduced by two hundred soldiers. They won't be able to!"
"We don't have Mr. Rondo's choice."
The soldier answered.
"Then bring the fifty men who are in this village hall to help the Northern army. Gather also the soldiers who scattered throughout the village to get to the North to help them."
"But sir, if anything happens in the village hall there are no soldiers here."
"I'm sure it's okay, some of the residents here are also retired soldiers. Ooki and Kenzo are here too."
"Hurry off! The northern army is in trouble!" Grandfather raised his hand and ordered the soldier.
"Execute! I'm leaving, Mr. Rondo!"
With orders from the village chief, the soldier gathered a guard force in the village hall and all the troops scattered around the village to help the Northern troops.
....
Turning to the food barn, Eugene and his two hundred members had reached the area where the barn was.
Of course, as a wise village chief grandfather did not keep all his village's food reserves in one place. Things like fire or theft like this have been anticipated since the beginning and therefore grandfather divided his storage in three different places.
And fortunately, the barn that is currently controlled by goblins is in Rowan's farmland. A large and very thick corn field. His height was as high as his head and his granary was in the middle of the fields.
The great corn fields and the height of the trees make this place a perfect place for ambush missions and also sieges. As long as you're invisible you can kill dozens of goblins.
Eugene and his entire army descended from his horse, bowed and gathered for a brief strategy meeting. Eugene led the meeting and spoke straight away.
"Well, these cornfields can either benefit us or kill us."
"We can sneak around and kill all the goblins until we get to the barn. But this cornfield can kill us too. We don't know in front of us there are twenty goblins or two hundred goblins ready to kill us."
" Do not use arrows or longswords. They're not effective in wars like this, use knives. My brave soldiers, this time we will attack like an assassin."
Eugene's excited and impatient expression was clear. His soldiers looked at each other with the same face and took out knives from their waist pockets.
"We show you how terrible our army is"
Fear turned into a burning spirit.will they manage to defeat those thousands of goblins with just two hundred people?
