Chapter 199: The Knights' Counterattack

The Vicious Dogs of Kuran put away his bow and arrows, looked at the fortress engulfed in flames in the distance, turned his horse's head, and turned against the roaring warriors around him, and returned to the coalition camp.

Shrouded in a cloak woven of crow feathers, a short figure walked up to the allied commander and said to him in a crystal-like hoarse voice with gravel across it: "Kufrin, the gates of the North Stone Fortress have been shattered, the obstacles to victory have been removed, why don't you join the battle?!"

The young man known as Kufrin jumped off his horse and cried out in annoyance: "Meredith! This is not the battle I want! Your so-called stratagems are contrary to the convictions of the Ulster warriors, and have rendered my strength completely useless! I am like a clown in the court to please the powerful with a bow and arrow!"

Meredith did not flinch from the anger of the other party, and said calmly: "The king of Ulster, Concierber, has asked me to assist in this battle, and he has told me that the Northern Quarry is a vital source of wealth for the northern kingdoms. I had no intention of getting involved in the war, but my master owes the king a favor, and I reluctantly came here to advise on his difficulties. As for the performance of power and the victory in the war, which is more important, it seems to me that the former simply cannot be compared with the latter. ”

Meredith paused for a moment, and said to the man in a slightly questioning tone: "Last month, you proposed to marry the daughter of Fergal, but the other party rejected you with the excuse of lack of merit, so you want to show yourself on the battlefield so much, am I right?"

Kuvrin was furious, and with a slam of both hands, the hundred-year-old hard bow made of black maple wood broke in half in his hand and was thrown at the feet of the Raven Man. He himself rode his horse in a rage, left behind the soldiers and the battlefield, and left the camp without looking back. ”

"The only son of the king's sister, as a general of Ulster, although he has the strength of his might, but he is willful, is it right or wrong for King Concierber to use this 'Vicious Dog of Courland'?" Meredith shook his head and said helplessly.

At this moment, several violent explosions were heard from the battlefield outside the camp.

This vision made Meredith secretly strange.

A moment later, a barbarian soldier ran into the camp tent and shouted urgently: "Great Witch Sacrifice, our warriors have been blocked out of the fortress by the enemy, and they have suffered heavy casualties!"

Meredith was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "We used war beasts to reduce the enemy's strength and blew up the city wall, why can't you take this fortress when you have an absolute superiority in troops?!"

The barbarian soldier knelt on the ground, his face full of horror: "Those ...... Those armies from the West can use magic, they can create huge explosions, and their armor can absorb flames and be invulnerable!"

————————————

The south-facing wall of the North Stone Fortress collapsed into a six-meter-long gap due to the explosion of the alien war beast.

Huggins was blown up to ten meters in the air by the explosion, and then fell heavily to the ground.

Due to the triple protection of armor, "dragon bone", and the inheritor's ability, he didn't suffer any fatal injuries, but broken ribs and patella, a misaligned spine, and a dislocated shoulder left the fortress commander completely incapacitated.

Because of the explosion and flames, it was the archers and crossbowmen of the Dusk West Knights who suffered a fatal blow, and the four wings totaled more than 500 people, which was reduced by one-third at one time, and the defenders' long-range strike ability was permanently weakened. In the face of the swarming barbarians and the Silver Ring coalition, the sparse bows and crossbows did little damage.

"Captain Dreiser United!" Captain Aldrich United...... Huggins, lying on the ground of the fortress, could not move, and looking at the smoke and flames above his head, he began to use the "hive" to contact all the wing commanders.

Some responded, others remained silent forever.

One of the cadet knights of the Order spotted Huggins, and he called the monk and squire.

The monks put Huggins on a stretcher, examined his wounds, and immediately proposed that the commander go to the rear to bandage and treat.

Huggins got up from the stretcher, grabbed the collar of the monk next to him, stared at each other with red eyes, and roared, "You bastards! Open your eyes and see, is it time for healing?! Send me to the city wall immediately!"

"Your Excellency, you can't fight anymore, and if you don't treat it in time, you may be left ......"

Huggins grabbed the other man's chin and roared with almost all his strength: "Don't let me say it a third time!

Seeing that the commander had made up his mind, the people carried him on a stretcher and carried him up the city wall.

Huggins' return boosted the morale of the remaining defenders on the city walls. The soldiers, who were originally at a loss, slowly calmed down after confirming that the commander was safe, and began to busy their own affairs in an orderly manner.

"Tell me what's going on, everyone!"

Lying on a stretcher, Huggins couldn't even sit up straight, let alone look around the battlefield. In desperation, he can only use the "hive" parasite to conduct a non-stop "wartime conference call".

The captain of the sentinel in charge of lookout and reconnaissance reported through the "hive": "The allied forces of the barbarians and the silver ring have been dispatched, their vanguard is about seventy people, and they have rushed into the gap in the city wall, the other side is using Molotov cocktails, and our heavy infantry responsible for defending the gap is retreating!"

Huggins ordered: "Inform the quartermaster to take out the explosives packs! Send them to the troops above the walls at both ends of the gap, throw them into the enemy formation, and disrupt their formation! The Successor Knights dismount and switch to foot combat, join the 'Melee Successors', and build a shield wall on the inside of the gap to drive out the attacking enemies! The other Inheritors use the Dragonbones to extinguish the flames of the fortress! The archers enter the flat area inside the fortress and kill the enemies outside the walls by projectiles! Others help the wounded, and monitor the rest of the fortress to prevent the enemy from climbing the city!

After giving these orders, Huggins settled down and used the 'hive' to connect all the wing commanders again: "Since its establishment, the Knights of the Twilight West have never lost a battle! Not before, not now, and not in the future! Why? Not because the Knights have great force, but because defeat is not allowed! Think about it! We are all a group of people who are feared, hated, and The hatred of the aliens and the cancer, the protection of the Son and the protection of the Kingdom, are the only refuge for us and our families to keep away from those tortures and slavery! So, Ladies and Gentlemen, speak in the name of the Son, swear by the glory of knighthood, Raise your sword and shield, and let these enemies in front of you witness another great victory of the Knights of the Dusk!"
