Chapter 22: The Initial Edge (3)
Even with steel armor, condescending superiority. There didn't seem to be any casualties to the elves, their own troops were built up in a year, and it took three years to train a full-fledged archer. Looking at the rain of arrows shot sparsely, Beson didn't know what to say except for sighing. Time is too short!
At this time, the elves made a way, and a magician in a mage's robe stepped out, and the siege troops with a ladder began to charge. Wayne was overwhelmed.
Beson didn't wait for Wayne to remind.
"Bullet, bullet!"
The order was passed down from one level to another, and the soldiers hurriedly pushed out the artillery hidden behind the battlements and fixed it. The movements are done in one go, and you can see the effect of the usual training.
The muzzles of the ten black holes were aimed at the elven army, ready to unleash suppressed fury.
After hearing Beson's order, Balde, who was hiding behind the city gates, also gave the order.
"Open the gates, prepare to charge, prepare to charge. ”
The heavy armored cavalry in the front row bowed down, clinging to the horse's back, carrying a blunt-headed spear, the spear was about a meter and a half above the horse's head, and the sharp spear head was a condolence from death.
~Boom~!
The heavy gates slammed into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. The heavily armored cavalry in the city gate appeared in front of the elves, and the white light reflected from the silver armor made the elves tremble. The elven general laughed at this time, this is not looking for death!
Normally, the defending side rarely fought back unless there was support, after all, by the time the troops withdrew, the heavy city gates did not know how much effort it would take to close them. That's when the besieging side has a good chance to break through.
Even the magician was stunned, he was so experienced that he had never seen such a stupid act.
Hurry up and recite the incantation, you can't miss such a good opportunity.
Coyle had a hint of something wrong in his heart, the black hole in the wall of the city, the unusual attack. all made him a little wary. But the battlefield cannot be easily withdrawn, which has a great impact on morale. It seems that a quick battle is going to be made, and the Koyle order will be passed on.
Drums sounded, and the besieging troops began to charge.
Suddenly, the battlefield was like stir-frying, and the heat was increased and boiled.
"Rush~!"
The well-trained siege troops, galloping, even if someone stepped on the trap, did not slow them down.
The rain of arrows on the walls increased suddenly, in order to provide cover for the besieging troops.
"Shoot arrows~!Don't let those monkeys rush over!"
The officer is roaring, braving the rain of arrows, drawing the bow, release!
The magician hurriedly chanted the incantation.
"Fire!
Besson shouted at the top of his voice.
The soldiers guarding the artillery immediately lit the lead.
Rumble~!
It was as if there was a roar that ran through the heavens and the earth, the earth was shaking, and the sand was jumping. Immediately stunned the elf.
The cannonball drew a calculated arc and landed precisely at the intended location.
Flying stones, shrapnel, quickly embedded in the soft flesh!
Ah~!The hysterical screams reached the ears of the friendly troops.
Suddenly the elven army was in chaos, and Coyle didn't understand what was happening. It was found that the army on the front line was disorganized, and the rout continued to spread.
Boom~!
A cannonball landed not far from Coyle, and the original guard was reduced to a blur of flesh.
Before he could react, the Koyle guards pulled Koyle's white horse and began to flee in the direction of the army's rout.
Balder, who was under the city, saw that the elven camp was disrupted, and the time had come.
"Rush~!"
The cavalry, ready to attack, clamped the belly of the horse, pulled up the reins, and the horse began to gallop.
Once the army is in chaos, it is a brittle piece of paper. Bald's cavalry swept into the flock like wolves.
The heavy cavalry in the front row was responsible for breaking through the defense line of a dozen or so people that had been improvised by the elves and entering the middle of the chaotic army. The cavalry of five hundred men began to divide into three groups, and a group of heavily armored cavalry continued to break through the formation. The remaining two light cavalry units were responsible for harvesting the heads.
Besson had stopped firing and looked nervously at Balder's cavalry.
Wayne also clenched his fists, they were not worried about the safety of the cavalry, after all, the opponent's formation was chaotic and there was no threat.
They were looking at how many worthy targets Balder could harvest, the mages and the galloping generals.
They could see the battlefield from the city walls, and Bald could he be in the midst of the chaos.
Balder was now leading a mixed group of light and heavy cavalry, looking for targets, they were not here to harvest heads, the most threatening targets of the team had to be cleared.
Balde followed the direction of the enemy's retreat, advanced, and by the way, collected the heads of the people. It was found that there was a group of infantry in front of the left, which was not overwhelmed by the crowd.
Big goal!
Balder had an idea in his mind and immediately commanded the cavalry to charge.
Taking advantage of the huge inertia of the war horse, the bloodstained spear head immediately adjusted the direction.
This magician, who had just been ready for victory, was now terrified. The sound of artillery just now, it was the voice of the devil. He still didn't understand what kind of magic it was, and when he thought that there might be a magician on the other side, his pace couldn't help but speed up a little.
Puff~
The spear pierced through the figure of fresh meat, and before he could react, the spear with the corpse immediately rose towards him. Not knowing the strength to take it, the already old body made a flexible roll and dodged the spear.
Before he could feel the joy of escaping, a long knife struck and pierced his body from his chest.
Bald, who rushed ahead, immediately tightened his reins, turned a corner, and looked back at the results.
A man in a mage's robe, with a piercing dying man running through his chest, constantly spitting blood. His eyes were full of fear of death.
It's done!
Balde did not linger on the results and continued the pursuit. Continue to chase ahead.
"Good~!"
Beson shouted happily.
Wayne was also excited. Seeing a group of white-robed mages rushing towards the magician on the city wall, Wayne knew that eight or nine were not far from ten. The magician did not die under the artillery, but was beheaded by the cavalry, which can be regarded as solving a big problem.
Watching the cavalry continue the pursuit, Wayne was in a good mood.
"It's really unpleasant to watch, Bald's kid is eating meat in front. If it weren't for the artillery that frightened the group of fearless monkeys, it would have been his turn to be majestic. ”
Bessen was overjoyed, but complained against his will.
Wayne saw that Besson was like this, whether it was good or bad, he would slap Bald once or twice. Balde will return the favor, but the relationship between the two of them is really good. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
"Then turn around and put you in the white cloak, and let you eat meat too. ”
When Beisen heard this, he quickly shook his head.
"No, no, no, I still want to live with the iron lumps. ”
Seeing that Beson was so embarrassed, the soldiers around him also laughed.
"Who dares to laugh, I saw that you just laughed, clean up the battlefield for me, and you, laugh the most, you drag me is a corpse!"
Wayne hurriedly walked away, or else Balder would have blamed himself for not giving him face and laughing at him in front of the soldiers.
