Chapter 424: The Battle of the Mansion
But after all, professional things need professional talents, and not these girlfriends can do it if they want to work hard.
The others are fine, but one of the guests tomorrow has a husband who is a great talent, and she is eager to recruit for her husband, so she must show enough sincerity.
At nine o'clock in the evening, at the end of the day's work, Matthew dragged his tired body back to his lodgings behind the town hall and kissed his wife lightly on the forehead.
Catherine pinched his stiff shoulders, which were much thicker than they had been in her youth.
Carefully plucking out a white hair, in the past six months, excessive work has made Matthew's sideburns a lot more, you must know that he is only 49 years old, far from reaching the recession period.
Matthew took off the hot towel in his hand and asked with concern, "How's the situation in Gokan City?"
"Last night, the three division commanders gathered in Gaokan City and sealed themselves inside, my father's voice sounded much more relaxed, and the heat of Little Bella also dropped, and I was able to eat by myself, so let's not worry about that side.
Francis and Stephanie also came on the phone and said that the city was stable and everything was under control.
Instead, they told me to be careful, after all, the origin of the people here is much more complicated than that of Gaokan City.
What happened last time scared the hell out of them. ”
Hearing the actions of several division commanders, Matthew also breathed a sigh of relief, and he had been worried about this matter all day.
Although he has also become a marquis with real power, his father Brad is the anchor of the whole family, but now that he is good, he can finally sleep well tonight.
"The newly formed women's garrison will select a few good men and let them follow you.
I have underestimated the abilities of these female warriors before, and unless weapons of mass destruction are used, even if my own soldiers want to penetrate their defenses, it will not be possible to do so in a short time.
By the way, what about Philip?
I heard that the Holy City in the south has been under martial law, and the situation in Lily Mountain Villa is also in chaos, but I have never been able to contact him. ”
"yes, now the whole south is in chaos, and people outside are talking and saying everything.
However, Philip and Sophia should have been prepared, as the main team of the Red Rose is facing off against the Knights Templar at the border.
Both of them are clever people, and with Paul and Caritan by their side, they should have no problem protecting themselves.
No one thought that the contradiction would be so aroused, which made people very worried. ”
"It's a good thing that the abscesses are squeezed out early, and I'm very relieved for that kid, and I can still ride Arthur away at the worst.
I'm just worried that he's too impulsive, and that this kind of internal rebellion and purge, even if it wins, will not end well in the end.
However, you still need to worry more about public opinion and control it, and the more times like this, the more you can't mess with yourself. ”
"Well, I'll do it, but my son has had an idea since he was a child, so it's better for him to grasp the proportions in it. ”
Late at night, in the couple's muttering of a few children in the distance, another day passed like this.
In Lily Villa, Philip's situation was not as good as he imagined, and he didn't have contact with his relatives, which made his heart full of anxiety, but the current situation still needed him, at least there was a girl waiting for his arrival now.
Halfway through the journey, he finally waited for Paul and the other two followers of the third level awakening who had returned to the team for a long time, and the strength of the entire team suddenly increased a lot.
Paul nodded at Philip and whispered a few words in his ear, causing Philip's face to show more solemnity and anger.
Along the way, they killed at least twenty or thirty ruffians who were making trouble, and many of them were highly skilled awakened people.
That's less than ten blocks, so you can imagine what the whole city is like now.
No one knew where these people had been hiding beforehand, as if they had appeared out of thin air, and it was clear that their opponents had been planning for a long time.
They were a little stranger to the city, and now there could be enemies hiding behind any street wall or house.
Finally, they arrived at the official residence where Sophia and the other dignitaries were, and the shouts of killing could be heard from there across the street.
More than 500 samurai in uniform gray armor were storming the walls of the mansion, dozens of cadets and their followers stubbornly held on to the thin defensive line, and there were many female knights of the Red Rose, but the huge difference in numbers still made it look shaky.
Philip saw Sam and two or three other classmates, Sam's majestic body with at least three arrows stuck in his body, wielding a giant axe in his hand and slashing off the head of a gray-armored samurai who had climbed up.
But a new wound had been added to his own left shoulder, and blinding blood was pouring from the crack in his armor.
Philip estimated the distance and the terrain there, and shouted: "Target the enemy's left flank junction, scythe charge!"
The sound of heavy animal hooves echoed in the streets, and more than 20 people lined up in three columns, but the charge of just 100 meters ran out of the momentum of thousands of troops.
Under the charge of the cavalry, the distance of 100 meters was fleeting, and soon Philip ran into the gray-armored warriors head-on.
The armored mount was like a terrifying chariot, and the samurai in the first two rows were knocked out with a scream, and bright red blood spurted out from under the mask while they were still in the air.
The flying human body smashed down a dozen people behind them, revealing a huge gap in the formation, but these gray-armored warriors were obviously completely different from the previous ruffians and hooligans, they were highly skilled and well-trained, and they quickly advanced layer by layer to fill the gap.
This is another significant difference from the battle with the steppe people, those steppe people's weak body and thin weight, as long as they are defeated in formation, without paying the price of tens of thousands of people, they will definitely not be able to restrain the charge of Ward's cavalry.
But in front of the gray-armored warriors of the same race, just over twenty meters, the momentum of Philip and the others' charge slowed down, and they gradually began to fall into a bitter battle.
Philip deftly dodged a warhammer, his broadsword arcing sharply through the air, and the samurai in front of him fell clutching his neck, only to be trampled under Natalie's iron hooves.
Killing this kind of thing, as long as you pass the difficulty in your heart, is a skilled job, and you will naturally become more and more experienced when you kill more.
The rapier in Paul's hand was like a magic weapon for conjuring spirits, and with each graceful stabbing of the sword, a warrior would fall, and he would not even have time to scream.
Because all the swordsmen were stabbed through the gaps in the masks, along with the eyes and the brains behind them, they were instantly churned into pulp.
In comparison, the killing efficiency of Gerald and the others is slightly lower, and it is okay to deal with ordinary samurai, but when facing the elite of the same Awakened, they show a trace of immaturity.
Soon, having lost his speed advantage, Gerald and two other followers were dragged off their mounts and formed a small team back-to-back to meet the onslaught from all directions.
However, due to Philip's arrival, the Grey Armor Samurai had to change from the back team to the front team, and half of their men were assigned to stop them, which weakened the impact on the high wall, and reduced the pressure on Sam above.
Coincidentally, at this time, nearly a hundred knights also ran out from the other two directions, rushing towards this side at high speed.
On the left side was a squadron of more than 20 horsemen led by Charlton, the leader of Class B.
The forty-odd riders on the right were a bit disorganized, and he only recognized that the leader was the popular little leader Wood.
"Chand and Adams swapped for sword and shield and held the flanks. Looking at the rushing knights, Philip decisively adjusted the formation.
Wood and the others on the right were a little faster, and in the blink of an eye they had already rushed to the 50-meter position, and Wood gestured on his horse, signaling that Philip himself would charge from behind his flank.
Philip nodded, then looked at Paul, and was about to make a move when he heard Charlton's loud shout coming from afar: "Philip, watch out for Wood!"
At the same time, a familiar sound of rope sounded in Philip's ears, causing the hairs on his body to stand on end.
It was the kind of tailless needle that he had used and experienced early this morning.
"Raise your shield!"
Before Chand's words completely fell, he saw a cold light enveloping the space, and the other party was actually indistinguishable from the enemy, and the gray-armored warriors who were entangled with Philip and others were also included in the target.
If it weren't for the preparation in advance, this kind of indiscriminate covering shooting would definitely cause Philip and the others to suffer heavy losses, looking at the familiar figure, Philip had to admit the ruthlessness of this classmate.
Only Gerald, who had fallen from the horse before, had no time to dodge, and was hit by a dense rain of arrows, and the armor on his body clanged non-stop.
Fortunately, they reacted quickly, and hastily used the bodies of those gray-armored warriors as shields, otherwise they would be shot into a sieve, following in the footsteps of Julian and Sergei.
Pity their mount, the muscular beast dragon in thick armor was fine, but he howled in pain, lost control, and rushed frantically left and right through the crowd.
The unicorns were not so lucky, and fell to the ground with a wail.
The first victim appeared, a young man of the Alpine tribe who followed Philip out of the mountains, and was unlucky, and happened to be stabbed in the mouth by a tailless needle through the gap in the mask.
His eyes under the helmet widened, and he unwillingly clutched his wounds and fell to the ground.
"Kirk!"
His death made Victor and the others angry, and with blood-red eyes on his shield, he went to kill that side, and unconsciously broke away from his original formation.
At this time, the surrounding gray-armored warriors had already fallen to the ground, and the casualties were no less than fifty, and they hurriedly retreated back, and there was no threat for a while.
"Get out of the way!"
Philip shouted anxiously, what he feared most was this, acting recklessly on the battlefield because of his blood, these young men of the Gaoshan tribe were brave and good at fighting, but they were far from meeting his requirements in terms of discipline.
Losing a mount and using your flesh to hedge against the enemy's cavalry is simply stupid.
Fortunately, after that big battle and half a year of training, this group of young people from the mountains has learned what it means to obey, even if they are unwilling, they all tacitly give way to the left and right under the order.
