Chapter 392 Trap Of Demon Goblin King
Chapter 392 Trap Of Demon Goblin King
After they manage to send of the Kobold, bloodied, the soldiers thought they would rest for the day. However, reality is much crueler.
"The monster's forces are still continuing their march! Prepare yourself for another engagement!" hearing this, some of the soldiers groaned, yet none refused the order.
Behind them is their families. If they are defeated, and the remaining three armies suffer the same defeat as they do, what would happen to them? To prevent it is the reason for the soldiers to be mobilized.
"Prepare for battle!"

Gobruk observe the humans movement with the aid of one of his advisors, a Demon Goblin Archshaman. The monster in question learned the art of making a familiar, sending it up on the sky to act as eyes for him.
With it, the Demon Goblin King managed to learn of the enemies movement, and prepare a deadly trap for them.
As most of the human forces marched towards the Lizardmen line, Gobruk smiled as the Goblin and Orc detachment is now heading straight towards the encampment, as well as the remaining 30 000 and more soldiers of the army.

"Sir! The Goblin and Orcs are heading straight towards our encampment!" General Lanki AL,out broke his teeth from how hard he gnashed it.
He had thought defeating the Kobold would make the rest of the monsters to flee. However, it seem such thought was rather naive in the hindsight.
"We will engage the Lizardmen and try to send them into disarray. After that, we will head back to our encampment and trapped the Goblins and Orcs in a pincers maneuver." he ordered.
Fortunately, the Lizardman are smaller in number than his 60 000 strong man forces, merely half their numbers. Unfortunately, Lizardmen are all C-rank monsters, stronger than his soldiers that is only middle or high rank D-rank combatants.
Plus, they now lack the element of surprise, which allow them to maul the Kovold detachment. Still, General Lanki will not surrender without a fight, especially one where he knew he could win, though the only way for his forces to be considered victorious is to win while suffering as little casualties as possible.
It won't slow them down by much but it will allow the rear force to have an easier task doing so.

"They are coming!" the leader of the encampment force, Commander Tarmek glared at the approaching monsters. The likes of Orcs, and Hobgoblins, C-rank monsters ,are things bad for his force.
Add how the said C-rank monsters outnumber his forces, being about 40 000 to 30 000 only made things worst. Add how there are also 40 000 Goblins, with half of them either Shaman or Guard made things from worst, to straight hell.
Of course, that does not mean he will surrender. No, he will fight to his final breath in hope General Lanki would slaughter the rest of the monsters in his stead.
Unfortunately, he will not see it.
"Keep ranks! Don't let the monsters get pass the defenses or it would be over! Fight to your last breath!"
-x-
As General Lanki arrived, it was to the sight of a part of the Fiend Race detachment already building up a fortification. Of course, said fortification only trenches and holes to make things hard for their forces, but it will still took valuable time to pass through.
However, time is not on their side as the larger Fiend Race force would destroy the encampment force if they took too long.
And so, General Lanki gave a simple order.
"Charge!"
-x-
When they manage to defeat the Fien- no, Goblin rear force of a measly 30 000 Goblins, slaughtering them to the last, Lanki was not happy with the result. In fact, it was the exact opposite as he saw what happened to the soldiers he ordered to remain at the camp.
All of them, including Commander Tarmek are now corpses, with the head of the leaders being put on the pike, all to the display of his demoralized soldiers.
