Chapter 30: The Vicious Dog That Stands in the Way
The more than 3,000 mercenaries of the Second Swordsman Regiment and the more than 1,500 elite infantry of the Lars Imperial Army, plus 1,000 sword fighters, were in close combat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Bloody and tragic hand-to-hand combat ensued. Because the mercenaries were extremely high-pitched and excited, their fighting spirit was extremely high. The more than 1,500 elite infantry of the Lars Empire, who were the first to engage them, were all timid and restless, resulting in deformed movements and inability to use them correctly.
As soon as Bran's entourage of mercenaries pounced forward, he swung his sword and shot down the weapons held by several Imperial infantrymen, and his sword fell sharply, resulting in the lives of these enemies. Bang, bang, click, click... "Uhh
Seeing this, the mercenaries became more and more encouraged, and began to fight more fearlessly and bravely. They already had the advantage in numbers, and when they faced the elite infantry of the Lars Empire, they had the upper hand. I saw the mercenaries slashing and killing one by one. However, the infantry of the Lars Empire only relied on a few local numerical advantages to besiege and kill dozens of mercenaries, and they were almost "annihilated".
A considerable part of the infantry of the Lars Empire who were "annihilated" fled with the militia in the chaos. Others simply lay down on the ground and began to play dead. They had no fiefdoms, no official positions, and no titles, and when they felt that they were no match for mercenaries and could not win at all, they were not willing to continue to work for the emperor.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the friendly forces to delay time, the remaining Lars Empire's One Thousand Sword Fighters had already lined up an extremely neat and rigorous formation, and the flames in their eyes had already burned violently. I saw that they guarded Frank in the center of the formation, layer by row, layer by layer, and protected them very well.
The swordsmen were all noble warriors loyal to the royal family of the Lars Empire, all of whom valued honor more than their own lives, and had great contempt for the arrogant untouchable mercenaries from Bagram.
The lieutenant general standing beside Frank raised his sword high, and while rushing towards the mercenaries head-on, he shouted loudly: "Let these bagram mercenary minaries see what is the supreme glory of the Lars Empire!"
Facing the swarming mercenaries, the sword fighters' movements were unusually uniform, extremely smooth, and methodical in continuously swinging the mid-bladed swords in their hands, releasing rows of half-moon-shaped, pale green sword qi blades. Boom!Boom!Boom... Bang!Bang!Bang... Each of these sword blades hit a target with almost unparalleled precision.
The hundreds of mercenaries who were assaulting at the forefront were instantly hit by the sword qi blades, and shouted loudly in pain: "Long live the Principality of Bagram!-" "Long live the Mercenary Association!-"... Immediately after, the men fell to the ground and never got up again. The formation of the mercenaries was unusually scattered, and they were just rushing forward in a swarm, each looking for their own thing.
The pace of the sword fighters is very uniform and calm, the attack and defense are steady, the advance and retreat are orderly, and the movement still maintains a very strict formation. There is a huge gap between the two sides in terms of training intensity, the quality of their troops, and their combat skills.
I saw that Bran's retinue mercenary stared angrily at the oncoming sword fighters, who had been hit by three sword qi blades, covered in blood, and had a shattered fracture of his right arm, but he still stood tenaciously on the battlefield and refused to fall, raised his left arm and pointed directly at the enemy, and scolded loudly: "You pigs of the Lars Empire are destined to die a good death!" Seeing this, a sword fighter suddenly rushed forward, and cut off the head of the retinue mercenary with a sword without mercy. Bright red blood gushed out.
After Kevin's death, Mel, who was often taken care of by the mercenaries who followed him, and who was already a brother to this person, couldn't help but cry bitterly, and shouted loudly with great grief and indignation: "Brother Hughes... Brother Hughes!—"Many people learned his name when they died.
Seeing this, Bran, who had known and worked with Hughes since childhood, was even more sad and unable to help himself, and felt indescribable pain in his heart. The longbowman burst into tears, his left hand covering his chest, his right hand covering his face, and he only shouted out and remained silent again: "Theseus!--..."
Immediately after, the sword fighters pressed on the mercenaries. The previous lieutenant took the lead in lifting the sharp blade in his hand, aimed at the mercenaries who were injured and fell to the ground, and stabbed them one after another. The painful wails of the mercenaries immediately echoed over the battlefield: "Ahh
The lieutenant general, who was splashed red with blood and his eyes were red, then laughed psychopathically, and continued to stab the injured mercenary who fell to the ground with the sharp blade in his hand: "Is this the helpless cry of you mercenary scum?"
The adjutant general stared at the mercenary who had been stabbed by his own sharp blade, admiring the other party's painful screams, and felt only extremely happy in his heart, and asked loudly and ventingly: "Even with you bastards, you dare to try to fight against the glory of the Lars Empire!?" Born into a nobleman, he felt that he had just suffered a great humiliation from Bran, and was extremely dissatisfied with Frank's cowardice in letting go of the deserter, so he vented this resentful anger on the enemy in front of him a hundredfold.
The mercenaries, who could not resist the approach of the sword fighters, had to keep retreating, and at the same time shouted at each other: "Bastards!-" "You pigs of the Lars Empire, you are really not a thing!"...
While retreating, a mercenary, out of pure revenge, suddenly began to pay attention to the wounded Lars Imperial soldiers lying on the ground and the so-called "corpses" who were pretending to be dead, and scolded loudly: "Let's also take a look at the Lars Imperial pigs on the ground, are they all dead!?" When the other mercenaries heard this, they immediately responded to this person's call, raised their blades in their hands, and stabbed them at the Lars Imperial soldiers on the ground who had lost their ability to resist. Cluck! cluck...
"Ahh The terrible wails and screams were accompanied by the tearing sound of sharp blades piercing into the flesh and bones. The soldiers on both sides were desperately slaughtering each other's people lying on the ground. The battlefield has finally been restored to its original form. - The abyss of purgatory, the Shura field of demons and demons.
Frank, Leonard, and Bran, as commanders of both sides, each stood behind their subordinates, and in order to stop this completely unnecessary killing, they were shouting hoarsely and loudly to dissuade: "Stop!-" "Stop!-"... Their subordinates, who had already killed red-eyed, turned a deaf ear to this appeal and chose to ignore it completely.
The battlefield was already unusually noisy. The mercenaries experienced the extreme tension before the war, and then the anger of the group, and after repeated violent mental agitation, their emotions were completely out of control. The sword fighters learned the truth and their morale was frustrated, they were encouraged by the emperor and their emotions were high, the fall of Mandoria City was almost hopeless, and now they began to counterattack and kill again, and their tense nerves had been twisted and perverted and collapsed. Such two groups of people have lost their most basic reason, and they only want to kill each other ********, and they can't be persuaded by any words.
Suddenly, hundreds of arrows struck from the rear of the Second Swordsman Regiment. Whoosh!--Whoosh!--Whoosh!--... Nearly 100 mercenaries fell in response: "Ahh I saw that on the four ferries of the original Kulun River, a thousand Lars Empire archers had scuttled the ferries under the strict orders of their commanders, poured onto the river bank, and fired cold arrows at the backs of Leonard and the others. Their commander, in order to prevent the shooters from fleeing, ordered the ferry to be scuttled.
In front of the mercenaries, another row of half-moon-shaped, pale green sword qi blades struck at them. Boom!Boom!Boom... Bang!Bang!Bang... Hundreds of mercenaries who risked their lives to pounce on the sword fighter again, and in an instant, they were hit by the sword qi blade and rose into the air, falling heavily to the ground and losing their combat effectiveness: "Uhh
At this critical juncture, a lion's roar suddenly sounded from the rear of the Lars Imperial Army: "Whoa—Ray!Bran, we're here to support you!" I saw that Howl led more than 200 exterminators and 500 orc hammermen to trot all the way, and rushed straight over. Seeing this, Crotty jumped from the tops of the nearby tree, jumped to the ground, and joined the battle.
The Samurai and Orc Hammermen were over-armed troops, and they were moving very slowly, so they arrived now. The hidden position is closer to Crotty, who is close to the Lars Imperial Army, and in order to avoid being surrounded by enemy troops as soon as he jumps off the tree, he only shows up now.
The quartermaster in charge of the quartermaster among the sword fighters looked back and saw that there was a problem, and when he raised his sword to Crotty's face, he shouted and cursed: "That black-skinned female elf! bastard! - we have fallen into the trap of the enemy! there is no providence at all! it is the weapon she brought with her that is problematic in itself!"
Seeing this, Crotty flicked her long white and silky hair with an unusually elegant posture, and looked disdainfully at the bloodstained and red-eyed enemy, and asked coldly: "You only found out at this time?
Seeing this, the noble-born quartermaster thought that his family's honor had been insulted like never before, so he widened both of his eyes to the fullest, and while his mouth was constantly muttering madly, he raised his blood-soaked sword in the air with both hands, and pounced on Crotty like a mad dog: "Despicable!--shameless!--so shameless!--too despicable!--despicable!--despicable ..."
If there is a problem with the weapon, the quartermaster in charge of the acceptance must take full responsibility. If he hadn't made amends or died in this battle, he would have been accused and scolded by thousands of people when he returned, and would have been severely punished by military law and would not have died a good death.
When he saw the quartermaster, who had broken down, running alone with blank eyes, he went up to him and shouted, "Madman, you should lie down on the ground honestly, and not scream and move." Immediately after, the orc warrior rushed in front of the other party without hesitation, and split the quartermaster's body into two pieces with an axe. On the battlefield, in order to protect your teammates from threats, it is wisest to take down the opponent first in the face of an enemy who has completely lost his mind.
The quartermaster's upper body fell to the ground abruptly, and a large stream of blood poured out of his mouth and nose, but his eyes were still fixed on Crotty, who had tarnished his reputation and brought him a shame worse than death, and the damned black-skinned female elf was not letting go, and her mouth kept cursing until she had completely choked: "Ahem... Mean!cough... Cough... Shameless!... Cough... Cough... Despicable ..." Seeing this, Crotty couldn't help but step forward, took off the cloak behind his back, and covered the body of this enemy.
Seeing this, the frenzied adjutant general of the Lars Empire saw this, and while desperately killing the enemy army, he swung his sword directly at the Second Swordsman Regiment, and reminded his colleagues loudly: "Despicable and shameless!---How can the supreme glory of the Lars Empire be tarnished by the treacherous and deceitful scumbags!--But our army cannot fight on two fronts, first kill the Second Swordsman Regiment in one go, and then turn back and annihilate their comrades!"
On the other side, the archer commander of the Lars Empire was holding high the command knife in his hand and constantly shouting orders: "Release the arrows! Keep ... arrows!"
Seeing this, Leonard immediately gave a loud order: "Reinforcements have arrived! Let's destroy the enemy's archers first, and then turn back and flank the enemy's main force with the reinforcements!" At this point, the Second Swordsman Regiment had about 1,000 killed, and there were still more than 2,000 left. The sword fighters of the Lars Empire belong to the heavy armor troops, and they can travel faster than the over-armed Destruction Samurai and Orc Heavy Hammermen, and slower than the mercenaries of the middle armor.
With the noisy and chaotic sound of killing, the sound shook the sky again: "Rush!-" "Kill!-"... The battlefield on the banks of the Cullen River presents a stalemate of a double-layered sandwich. More than 200 samurai and 500 orc hammermen quickly slaughtered a thousand sword fighters from the rear. A thousand sword fighters chased after more than two thousand mercenaries. More than 2,000 mercenaries turned around and went straight at the 1,000 Lars Empire archers who had no way to retreat and had their backs to the Cullen River.
When the archers of the Lars Empire fired the last wave of arrows. The mercenaries had rushed to them. The commander of the archers shouted, "Throw away all your bows and arrows, and draw your swords!—Long live the Lars Empire!—" Immediately after, the man raised the command knife in his hand and led the way to the Second Swordsman Regiment.
At this moment, Leonard also took the lead and galloped in front of the archer commander, raised his broad-bladed sword in both hands, and shouted loudly, "Brothers, look at our comrades-in-arms lying at our feet! For their sake and for ourselves! There is nothing left to stop us from winning the final victory! Rush! -- the sword is dragged and the thunder strikes!-"
I saw that the great swordsman aimed at the archer commander of the Lars Empire, and suddenly swung the broad-bladed sword in his hand several times. Several bright and dazzling rays of light blue arc sparks twisted together, and the writhing light blue arc sparks were released from the blade, turning into one after another shining and dazzling thunder lightning that hit the target directly.
After the shooter commander of the Lars Empire was hit by Lei Guang Electric continuously, he screamed: "Uhh
Immediately after, the archer commander of the Lars Empire was instantly annihilated by the extremely fanatical shouts of the Second Swordsman Regiment, and was trampled on the spot by the mercenaries: "Long live the Principality of Bagram!-" "Long live the Mercenary Association!-" "We will definitely take the final victory!-"... Next, all the members of the Second Swordsman Regiment engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the archers of the Lars Empire. Ping! Bang! Click...
After a fierce fight, the result is needless to say. The mercenaries, who were extremely motivated, highly motivated, and furious, quickly killed the unskilled marksmen, who were not good at close combat, whose morale was sluggish, and who were full of fear.
Just as the lieutenant general who had taken the lead in pounceing on the Second Swordsman Regiment and the Lars Empire was about to continue the assault forward. Frank, who was standing side by side with him, had already seen that this battle was going to be lost, and hurriedly grabbed the lieutenant's wrist and persuaded the other party in a serious tone: "Nephew, you should get out of here quickly." Let the uncle stay. ”
The lieutenant general, who was angry with the Second Swordsman Regiment, could not listen to any dissuasion at all, shook off Frank's palm, and responded loudly with a violent voice: "Your Majesty! There are only kings and ministers on the battlefield! There is no distinction between father, son, uncle and nephew! Fight for the glory of the Lars Empire! Loyal to Your Majesty!"
It is the duty of every soldier of the Lars Empire to obey and to do so!For this reason, I would rather fight to the death than flee in shame!-" With that, the man rushed forward without hesitation.
The sword fighters once again got up close and personal with the mercenaries of the Second Swordsman Regiment. However, this time, they were obviously chasing in a panic and did not maintain any formation. As a result, the Lars Imperial Army and the Second Swordsman Regiment were huddled together on the banks of the Cullen River. A chaotic and bloody melee ensued.
Leonard was anxious to ask Frank about Tina, so he asked Bran and Mel, who were standing beside him, to "I'll deal with Frank myself." The rest of the enemies will be handed over to you. After saying that, the great swordsman lifted the broad-bladed sword in his hand and rushed towards the emperor's position alone.
Just as Leonard was hurrying towards Frank. The emperor's nephew, the crazy lieutenant general, suddenly jumped in front of the great swordsman with a slender sword in his hand, and shouted arrogantly: "Leonard!
Obviously, Leonard was extremely disgusted with this kind of idiot character who suddenly jumped out to block the way, self-righteous, and scumbersome, and pointed his sword at the other party's face, and shouted angrily: "Good dog doesn't get in the way! Miscellaneous fish! Get out of the way for Uncle Ben, and you can spare your life!"
When the emperor's nephew heard this, his expression became more and more maniac, and he grinned: "Heha! -- you are simply ridiculous and generous! You despicable, shameless, lowly and incompetent mercenary scum even have the face to call others dogs and call others miscellaneous fish. Suffer death! The wolf broke its teeth and struck!-" I saw this guy wielding a long, slender sword in his right arm. The tip of the sword was pointed directly at Leonard's face. From his body, a large stream of auxiliary power nature spell energy suddenly gushed out, causing this person to stab at a sword that exceeded the usual speed by three times.
Seeing this, Leonard reacted quickly, and immediately picked up the sword in his hand. A half-moon-shaped, pale green blade of sword qi was released from the blade of the sword, meeting the enemy. The Emperor's nephew continued to lunge forward, and a sword stabbed the sword qi blade, instantly canceling out the power of the sword qi blade with the magic energy on his own blade. The remaining bit of strength from the sword qi blade gently brushed the lieutenant's cheek like a breeze.
Discovering that the Emperor's nephew turned out to be a swordsman who was proficient in magic, Leonard was immediately quite embarrassed by his underestimating enemy, and hurriedly threw all his strength to his right hand, and slashed at the enemy with his backhand: "Not good!" The white blades of the two sharp swords staggered and sparks flew everywhere. Both the Great Swordsman and the Adjutant retreated two steps in succession behind their backs.
When both of them have not yet stood on their heels, and their center of gravity is shaking. The emperor's nephew suddenly struck first, stretched out his right arm, and stabbed Leonard with a sword. Seeing this, the Great Swordsman hurriedly leaned back and took another big step back, maintaining his center of gravity while avoiding such a blow.
Seeing this, the emperor's nephew sinisterly laughed twice: "Hmph." I saw that the white blade of the slender sword in his hand suddenly stretched out a bright and shining section, increasing the killing distance. This elongated section was not the white blade itself, but an air blade made of spell energy. Unprepared for the situation, Leonard had no time to dodge, and in an instant he was stabbed in the left shoulder, his anxious teeth clenched, and his brow furrowed.
The Emperor's nephew's blow was clearly aimed at the great swordsman's vital point, but he failed to hit the target, and only by piercing the opponent's shoulder and supporting his own body, he was able to stand firm and not fall to the ground.
Bran found that Leonard was in a bitter battle, and knew what the Great Swordsman was thinking, so he hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Ray, leave this miscellaneous fish to me to deal with." You'd better hurry up and get Frank. Then the longbowman took out the rope arrow, which was a noose, and threw it at the emperor's nephew.
Because the Great Swordsman was very eager to get news about Tina from Frank, he broke away from the coordination of his teammates and rushed too quickly, so he made a serious mistake.
