Section 73 Attack and Defense of the Covey Woodland (13)

No orcs could shake the will of Shikan-Silveraxe, and the order to attack was quickly given, and the Northern Clan Guards Wolf Cavalry Regiment stationed in the Tephilo Grassland received a teleported order letter an hour later.

At the same time, the 1st and 3rd Banner Regiments, which were resting, were also mobilized ahead of schedule because of the letter sent by Peidi.

The scouts who were lying in ambush nearby were immediately awakened by the noise of the army, and when they opened their hazy eyes to look at the huge marching procession, the only remaining trace of sleepiness vanished.

By the time the scouts got the news back to their masters, it was seven hours later.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the sun's rays, which had no warmth in the northern part of the Ailan Continent in winter, were struggling to shine through the thick clouds to the earth.

Under the clouds, the area of the Covey woodland is full of wolf smoke.

The battle for the fort area continues!

At the same time that Kabe and the three flag commanders received the news of Shikan's rapid advance, the sixth wing, which was responsible for containing the central defense line, sent a military report - the flag commander of the seventh banner regiment, Bi Liqi, died in battle at 7 o'clock in the morning of the 20th!

The news came so suddenly, so suddenly that no one including Kabe reacted.

The sudden death of Bilich, and the sudden rapid advance of the army of Shikan... All of this seems to reveal to Kabe that they are getting closer and closer to failure!

At this time, the hands on the magic clock showed a quarter of 10 o'clock.

At this moment, the two sides officially fought for exactly a full day.

It was only one day of fighting that made the whole battle situation clear.

Now there is only one way in front of Kabe and the three flag commanders, either to break through the stronghold area of the Corwey Woodland defense line and then quickly take Fort Thurbuk to get a chance of survival.

Or, you can only surrender to Shikan or the Empire!

...

At 11 a.m. on November 20, 1215 in the year 1215 in the continental calendar and 335 in the imperial calendar, the orc commander Kabe, in front of the Corvey Woodland defense line, ordered: Assault of the whole army!

They made their choice.

"Knock"

"Knock"

Cabe himself ascended the high platform to cheer on his warriors, and the bison skin drums of the huge war drums vibrated violently with the blessing of his anger, and the sound made the nearby iron tools 'buzz'.

On the battlefield on the high ground ahead, the three battle flags flying in the wind stood tall like pillars against the backdrop of blood and fire!

"Roar"

The orc warriors roared and rushed towards the 'ladder' made of the corpses of the robed brothers, where the endless whizzing arrows and ballistas could no longer terrify them.

These fearless orc warriors have only one idea in their hearts: follow the banner and fight to the death!

Bloodier battles began.

...

Half an hour later,

The huge wooden wall in front of the fortress area, which resembles a 'death chasm', began to gradually become touchable under the desperate charge of the orc warriors... Finally, amid a burst of cheers, the Twelfth Banner Commander Mailersey and his Bison Skull Battle Banner climbed the city wall for the first time!

But he was greeted by a huge warhammer with a golden halo, and in the hand was a human paladin in black knight's armor, his whole body was shrouded in holy power, and the noise of the wielding warhammer in his hand rubbing against the air could even be heard by the orc warriors below the walls.

"Don't underestimate the people of the beast god!"

Seeing that the giant warhammer was about to fall on McLerthy's body, the chief priest next to him let out a low roar, and the staff wrapped in elemental power in his hand was pinched into powder... The moment the staff fragments fell, the chief priest's body seemed to be distorted by the surrounding space and shrank rapidly.

"Plop"

At the same time as the chief priest's body shrank, a noise that was close to the limit of hearing suddenly sounded after a violent collision, which shook the eardrums of the nearby soldiers in both eyes... The unpleasant sound was accompanied by a strong shockwave that stinged the skin, and this shockwave caused the surrounding warriors to subconsciously take a step back.

The loud bang was caused by the warhammer being struck by an invisible wall of air... The master of the warhammer was Pedi, and the defensive shield that resembled an invisible wall of air was wielded by the chief priest.

Peidi's hands were numb from the force of the shock, and the holy power that covered his body was quickly healing his cracked jaw... Taking two steps back, he glanced at the priest not far away in surprise, who had already turned into a dried corpse at this time!

The chief priest wielded the power of the sorcerer, and the powerful elemental energy drained all the blood from his body.

At the moment when Pei Di was stunned, the axe body of a double-edged battle axe slashed across the armor on Pei Di's abdomen, accompanied by a dazzling spark.

"Bang" Pei Di's whole person was knocked back several steps by the huge inertia, and hit the shield of the soldier behind him, almost falling.

After the owner of the giant axe struck a successful blow, he clearly intended to continue the attack, but the nearby paladins immediately surrounded him.

Peidi pushed away the soldier next to him who wanted to help him, he felt the pain in his waist, and subconsciously touched the place where he had just been attacked with his hand, and the armor of the soft underbelly of his abdomen had almost fallen.

The blow was very accurate, almost coming at the weakness of Pedy's armor.

Pedi's eyes were drawn to the axe, its owner was a bone-clad berserker with three pairs of silver rings wrapped around his braided beard, and the muscles of his face showed clear crimson lines as he swung the tomahawk.

This was the head of the Mailesey Banner who was the first to rush to the city wall, and he was now stubbornly resisting the two paladins without falling behind.

Immediately, Pedi looked away from Melesey, as he needed to deal with more orc warriors who had climbed the wooden wall elsewhere nearby.

The hammer was first held on the shoulders of Pedi, then quickly held the hammer in both hands, and then his body changed into a golden light, and when he reappeared, an orc warrior who had just rushed to the wall had fallen under his hammer.

But almost in the blink of an eye, more orc warriors were on Pedy's side.

"Huh" can only wield the warhammer again at this time.

One, two, ten, ten, dozens of strokes, each swing of Pedi was bound to take the life of at least one orc warrior, but soon, more orcs would appear around him.

There are no words, no mercy, only killing, endless killing.

This is the battlefield.

However, despite Pedi's seemingly invincible record, the orcs still rushed to the city walls!

After more than ten minutes of fighting, Peidi suddenly found himself slowly retreating.

Yes, he is on the retreat.

In the face of the endless charge of the orcs, even Pedi began to instinctively retreat.

"Hold the line!" Pei Di shouted instinctively, his voice resounding through the city wall while he didn't care about the sharp blades around him cutting through his armor, and the whole person took a big step forward, and with the help of the Holy Force, he took this step and squeezed back more than a dozen orc warriors who had just stood on the edge of the city wall.

"Don't retreat!" Knight Lemsit, the commander of the Third Legion, seized the fighter and struggled to swing the pulleys that turned on the wall, and a row of orc soldiers were pushed off the wall under the sweep of the giant trees.

The step of trying his best to move forward made Pedy's arm sore, his vision was blood-red, the narrow gap in his visor was covered with ice and snow, making his vision narrower and narrower, and the constant cacophony of beast whispers and the 'buzzing' sound of his helmet rubbing made him more and more irritable.

Pei Di threw off his helmet, and a gust of cold wind hit and everything in front of him became much more open.

"My lord, if this continues, the soldiers will be able to hold out for half an hour at most. Taking advantage of the orcs being swept off the walls, the knight Lemsit walked to Pedi's side, "The orcs almost crippled our third legion in the charge. ”

The wide field of vision allowed Pedi to see everything on the city wall at this moment, his soldiers had long since lost a complete formation, and almost all of them were wounded, while the orcs below the city wall were still continuous.

"Sacred power is everywhere!"

Looking at the orc soldiers rushing towards him, Pedi whispered softly... At this moment, his face was serious, and his red eyes turned golden as if they were flowing like water waves.

In the eyes of Knight Lemsit, Pedi seemed to have become a legendary god at this moment, as if in an instant, as if a long time had passed, he was shaken, and an indescribable feeling began to fill his body, and at the same time, the wounds on his body were almost healed at this moment, and what was even more amazing was that the exhaustion and sleepiness also disappeared without a trace.

"Holy power is everywhere!"

Nearby, the other paladins roared at the same time, and the holy power around them exploded with all their strength at this moment, echoing the holy power around Peidi...
