Chapter 14: The Battle of the Plains
The next day, the Grunt and McGhan families began an attack on Tony City. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Commander Glent said that if the armies of the two families went together, the command would be unclear and they would drag on, so let the Grunt family go first. There was no need for the McCann family to oppose their companions over such a trivial matter, so they agreed.
So the commander of Grent and the general of the defenders of [Tony] City began to cooperate, and the besieging side sent those mercenaries up, which seemed to be very lively, but in fact, those mercenaries were not able to work, and they did not dare to fight hard with the defenders at all. On the front, Grent commanded the army of the family, the shield soldiers covered the cover, the stormers blasted the city gates, and the swordsmen and pikemen threw ropes up and climbed up. The defenders were commanded to pour oil down the walls, light them with torches, and archers erected themselves on the walls to fire at the besieging troops. But in fact, the besieging side was slow to move, and the rope that was held was thrown did not climb up quickly, and the defenders were allowed to cut it; The defenders of the city were poorly accurate, with the archers missing nine out of ten arrows, and the unfortunate ones were shot in the arms and legs and other non-fatal injuries. Although the casualties were few, the momentum was not small, and in the eyes of the McGhan family commander, it was the stubborn resistance of the defenders, and the Grunt family suffered heavy losses and could not be captured for a long time.
[Tony] is playing on the scene, and [Toth] is going to usher in a life-and-death showdown on his side.
The House set out camp at nine o'clock during the day, and arrived at two o'clock in the afternoon on the plain outside the city of [Thoth].
To the surprise of the House family, Toristine's army had already formed a phalanx and waited outside the city. At a glance, Toristine's men and horses are also around 30,000, and the military appearance is good and the momentum is huge. About 10,000 people in the center were dressed in khaki armor, which should have been the direct troops of Marshal Torristin's Gramon.
The House family was uneasy that Toristine had so many troops in Thoth.
Gramont saw the smoke from afar and knew that the enemy was approaching. He pulled out the long sword at his waist: "Soldiers, the enemy is coming. They must have been exhausted and exhausted when they arrived, so you obey my command and charge with me. Kill!! ”
The troops directly under the rear drew their swords to the sky together, shouting: "Kill!! ”
The sound was so loud that thunder roared on the ground. Startled the House soldiers in the distance.
The 20,000 men of the Noble Army of the Torristeen Local Army were stimulated by this momentum, and they also raised their weapons and shouted for kill.
The military heart is available, Grammon is slightly happy in his heart, and recites aloud.
"Grando Us, Us, Hammer." 【Golden Golem】
The Grammon family has practiced earth-based magic for generations, but not in the same way as the mainstream practice, but specializes in the metal golem lineage that has evolved over generations. The first-level [Bronze Golem], with a spear, hollow, afraid of slashing; The second-level [Black Iron Golem], with a machete, solid, powerful, afraid of magic attacks; The third-level [Silver Puppet], with a long sword, flexible body, not afraid of slashing fireballs, can deal with hundreds of heavily armed soldiers with one puppet; The fourth-level [Golden Golem], without weapons, hollow, puts armor on the caster, and the magic below the third level cannot damage the golden puppet, and the wearer can exert the power of a hundred people, rampant in the military array, and as long as it stands on the ground, the golden golem will continue to absorb power and transmit it to the caster, and theoretically can continue to fight.
The golden light rose, drawing the eyes of both the enemy and the enemy, and the bright golden armor covered Marshal Gramont little by little, revealing a pair of crazy eyes. Holding his sword aloft, Gramont took the lead and rushed towards the enemy in the distance: "Follow me!" ”
The long-sword soldiers of the direct subordinate followed, rushing across the plain, raising dust tens of meters high. Great earthquake tremors.
The aristocratic army and the local army followed.
Commander House was horrified, but he also gave command.
"The whole army stopped, defended on the spot, resisted the onslaught, and met the enemy."
These 30,000 men, all soldiers of the House family, were forbidden, and the march was stopped almost without commotion, and they lined up in their positions and prepared to meet the enemy. Soon they saw the Toristine army rapidly approaching in the distance.
A white horse with golden armor on it and a man holding his sword high and sinking into the House army.
Hundreds of bows and arrows from the archers in the distance came and flew out without even leaving a pit on the golden golem's body; Then the bow and arrow sank into the white horse, and the good horse roared in pain, galloped wildly, and sent Gramont on his back into the house army before he fell.
Dressed in armor and weighing hundreds of pounds, Gramont fell from his horse and overwhelmed a dozen soldiers.
The surrounding long sword soldiers and pikemen stabbed at Gramon one after another, "sonorous and sonorous", and the swords and spears collided in vain outside the golden armor, but were popped out of the gaps one by one.
Gramont shook his head and stood up from the ground, and walked forward at will, his body holding a dozen spears against the pikemen's top and backing one after another. With a swing of his sword, Grammon sent a dozen or so soldiers who had forced forward to fly out, and some of the soldiers who flew out overwhelmed the dozen or so soldiers.
As if entering a no-man's land, Gramon is brave and unscrupulous in the state of the golden puppet's blessing. Tearing a huge gap in the House army, the more the soldiers tried to stop him, and the closer they approached him to attack him, the more casualties would be inflicted.
After Gramon broke into the army, a minute later, Gramon's direct longsword soldiers rushed in. Pouring in through the gap, wielding his long knife and slashing at enemies in all directions, even if he is pierced by pikemen, he will not stop, pouring in like a torrent, penetrating everywhere. The gap opened by Gramont widened rapidly after the influx of 10,000 longsword soldiers, and the House army was pressed to engage the longsword soldiers.
After the longsword soldiers opened the gap, the follow-up noble armies and local armies continued to pour in.
It was a mediocre but deadly battle, with an army of 60,000 colliding outside the city of Thoth, sending their own weapons into each other's bodies, and then pulling out in search of the next enemy.
Flesh and blood splattered, one by one the Albions and Toristines fell, the blood seeped into the plains, and the bones fell, becoming nourishment for the weeds the following year.
Under the determination of Marshal Grammon, the House family was beaten by the first hand at first, and the formation was torn apart by Marshal Gramont and his direct longsword soldiers, and when the 60,000 troops were strangled together, the House family commander wanted to issue an order to retreat, but could not convey it to his subordinate soldiers.
In the end of the brutal strangulation, the commander of the House family and his own soldiers were swept up and turned into one of the countless corpses. The god-like Marshal Gramont was exhausted after slashing for about ten minutes, but the golden armor continued to draw power from the earth and merge into his body, he kept stepping and swinging his sword, and in the end he stopped moving, and the golden puppet's own vague will maintained the action of swinging his sword and stride, causing countless casualties on the battlefield.
The bloodiest war between Torristeen Albion began at two p.m. and ended at four p.m. All 30,000 soldiers of the Albionian House family fell outside the city of Torristeen [Toth] and turned into fertilizer; And Torristeen also paid 20,000 casualties, and only 3,000 of Gramon's 10,000 direct troops remained.
The 50,000 bodies scattered across the plain were mixed together, and it was impossible to distinguish between Toristine's and Albion's, so Gramont ordered the bones to be burned on the spot. The green grassland of the ashes was dyed grayish-white.
