Chapter 111: Chapter 11

The Yohan First Horde, Ikarush, marched and passed in front of Xiao Chen. The warriors were in perfect lines as they looked forward with pride as they moved. When they were directly in front of the chieftain, the elements of the formation turned their heads to right and stared at their chieftain with chins held high with pride except for the rightmost element who continued to look forward. After passing by, the warriors turned their heads back and stared right ahead of them. They circled around the Hollowed Ground after passing by Xiao Chen.

There they stood in Inspection Line, standing still and with pride. The Yohan First Horde, Ikarush boasted a total of four thousand and seven hundred warriors,who are combat ready and will surely bring down any foe that challenges their might. There was also an additional four hundred warriors who could also help the Horde in times of dire situations which were under the lead of Xor’tharr and Kul’tha.

The battle band had a total of a twenty-four members including their leaders while the Logistics Unit make up of two hundred members and the remaining ones are the tribe members who have special skills that addresses certain things like surveying for the construction of the roads while they move and the guides for laying out the forts which will be their home far away from home.

“Warriors of the First Yohan Horde, Ikarush! Today marks the day that you start your service for the glory of Yohan! Anyone that challenges its might must and shall fall! Take pride in being the first but not going to be the last to expand the borders of Yohan!” Xiao Chen shouted as he recognized the First Horde of Yohan.

Silence was the only answer that he received as the members of Ikarush just stood still like statues, like how they were trained. The wind started to howl as they made the many banners of the Horde flutter in the air. The clouds started to roll like they were fleeing away and thunder boomed, announcing its presence to the mortals below.

The members of Ikarush were unperturbed by the mighty booming sound of thunder. They feared no one as they take pride in all the hardships that they went through and even the gods themselves will make them bow down.

“Sakh’arran! Horde Chief of Ikarush! Come forward!” Xiao Chen ordered as the battle band continued to play in the background. Rakh’ash’tha took out one scroll that was on the central table of the stage that was made out of concrete and handed it to Xiao Chen. Sakh’arran ushered his trusted partner Blackwind forward with his chin held high as the Verakhs parted their formation to allow him to pass through, since they were positioned ahead of the entire Horde. ????n????????ℯ????d. ????o????

Blackwind was fitted with metal armors in some parts of her body, like the other wargs of the Warg Cavalry. The armor was properly placed and attached to her body as not to impede her mobility when fighting in her own way of combat. Her armor covered her head, but not her snout, her torso, and the upper parts of her limbs. A saddle and stirrups were also fitted onto her as Sakh’arran would ride her most of the time now, unlike the previous times.

“Sakh’arran, Horde Chief of the Yohan First Horde, Ikarush, greets you, Khao’khen Chieftain of Yohan.” Sakh’arran saluted as her steed bowed her head towards Xiao Chen. Blackwind also learned some of the right procedures, like saluting and other things after the many times that she had witnessed it being done by the warriors that were suffering under the scorching heat of the sun.

Xiao Chen nodded his head to acknowledge the salute of Sakh’arran and Blackwind and reached for the scroll that was in the hands of Rakh’ash’ta. “This contains the missions of Ikarush. Included in it is your primary task and the secondary tasks that you and your Horde are going to do.” Xiao Chen handed the scroll to Sakh’arran, who dismounted from his trusty steed and received the scroll.

“Maghazz! Commander of the First Verakh Company, Rikon! Come forward!” Xiao Chen bellowed next as he looked at the Verakhs who were the ones that he was excited about the most. Maghazz slung his crossbow on his shoulders as he marched forward. The Verakhs wore light leather armor as they prioritize mobility in all terrains, but they are deadly both in range and melee combat. Only the Rhakaddon Cavalry and them are equipped with crossbows for range attacks.

The Rhakaddon Cavalry were trained to shoot their crossbows while riding their steeds to pepper compact enemy formations when needed be but the Verakhs took wielding the weapon to the next level as they were trained to make use of their crossbows as their main weapon. They would assault their targets in formations that were tailored for them and barrage their foes with bolts of iron.

The Verakhs were equipped with different types of crossbows that Xiao Chen designed. The bigger and longer ones that fires at a very slow rate are to be used by the marksman of each squad since it is capable of taking down targets in great distances. There is the bulky yet shorter type, which was for closer range that is almost melee, which shoots out small iron balls with a tremendous power that would send anyone hit by them flying backwards. And the most common one is the one which is capable of firing almost rapidly as long as bolts of iron are fed to it by its magazines.

“Maghazz, Commander of the First Verakh Company, Rikon attached to the First Yohan Horde, Ikarush, greets you, Khao’khen, Chieftain of Yohan.” Maghazz said as he saluted towards Xiao Chen while standing beside Sakh’arran and his partner, Blackwind.

Xiao Chen nodded at Maghazz and took the scroll handed to him by Rakh’ash’ta. “This contains the details of your missions. It is up to you on how you deploy your troops and accomplish them.” he handed the scroll to Maghazz, who received it with both hands. “For the Glory of Yohan.” Xiao Chen said as he dismissed the two.
