Chapter 100: Bloody Chariot Lez (6)
On a flat ground three hundred meters west of Chelez, a full 3,200 Rhodok soldiers were lined up in formation, staring murderously at the villages and towns in front of them.
There is their land, their homes, and their relatives, friends, and lovers! But at this moment, all these things that were so dear to them were wailed in pain under the merciless sword of the Salanders, and then they left them one by one.
Seeing this tragedy that happened in front of his eyes, but he couldn't stop it because of the military order, the eyes of every Rhodok soldier were full of tears!
The dark clouds in the sky gradually obscured the sun, and it seemed that the sun could not bear to see such a human tragedy.
Under the gaze of the others, Charles rode his race Fleur back into the ranks, lining up on the right flank of the line with the rest of the cavalry.
His bravery and unparalleled performance had already been seen by the others, so almost everyone in his vicinity unconsciously looked at him with respect. It seems that as long as he doesn't die after this battle, his reputation will definitely be boosted like flying.
Thinking of this, Charles's eyes unconsciously crossed a trace of excitement. As long as his reputation is enough, are he afraid that King Griffos will not extend an olive branch to him? In this way, as his status increases, his bargaining chips for marrying Elena will also increase, and he will be looked down upon by others?
Thinking of this, Charles looked at the group of Salanders with hideous faces, and suddenly felt a lot cuter.
Suddenly, there was a sound of trumpets in the town of Chelez ahead, and it was clear that the Salanders, who were burning and looting in the towns, had spotted the army of the Rhodoks and were gathering their army to meet them.
But Charles was a little confused, wondering if the commanders of the Salanders were motivated by extreme confidence in their own strength, or if they really looked down on the low wooden breastwork that surrounded the outskirts of the village of Cherez. He didn't even think about defending at all, but instead ordered all the soldiers to come out of the town and form a formation at the west gate to fight a decisive battle with the Rhodok coalition army!
Seeing this, the eyes of Count Atlas and the other two Counts were instantly filled with murderous intent, and they were deeply enraged by this naked contempt, and they wanted to rush forward and cut off the head of Commander Nasaland at once.
"Whose troops are this?" Count Atlas asked through gritted teeth.
"If you go back to your lordship, look at the flag, it should be the private army of Chief Salandnois."
Count Atlas was overjoyed when he heard this, turned his head to Count Jehamor and smiled: "No wonder, it turns out that it is the brainless one!" ”
Hearing this, Count Gehamur's face also relaxed a lot, but he still said in a solemn tone: "That should not be underestimated, after all, their number is higher than ours, so we should be careful!" ”
Count Atlas didn't answer, but nodded disappreciatively. Since these stupid Salanders in front of them have been carried away by the previous victory and have shown undeserved arrogance in the battle, then he should give these lowly opponents the treatment they deserve, and let them know who is the real master in this land!
Count Atlas snorted coldly and waved his hand at one of the heralds standing beside him, apparently deciding to go toe-to-toe with the Salanders and crush this group of enemies who didn't know what to fear with the strongest attack.
He wants to tell these brainless creatures living in the desert with the greatest confidence and strength - never try to challenge the majesty of the Rhodoks, because that will only be self-defeating!
Looking at the dense gathering of Salanders in front of him, Count Atlas pulled out the long sword hanging from his waist with a sneer, swung forward heavily, and let out a deafening roar: "All crossbowmen, prepare!" ”
As soon as his voice fell, the flag-bearers who were hiding in the military formation began to act quickly. They waved flags with the crest of the nobles painted on them, constantly changing their poses.
Looking at the banners flying up and down, the officers of the various departments of the coalition army immediately read the commander's order from it. For a while, the sound of shouting and scolding and orders in the team was endless, and the long sound of horns, soldiers' slogans, and the sound of bows and crossbows all rose to the sky and resounded in the sky for a while!
The great battle with the Salanders is finally about to begin!
Amid the hoarse roars of the officers of the crossbowman quarters, a thousand excited, red-eyed Rhodok crossbowmen and snipers let out a roar in unison, and then jerked out their crossbow arrows from the crossbow quivers hanging from their waists, and quickly wound them up and aimed at the Salanders in front of them.
The hearts of all the Rhodoks are filled with resentment: the time has come to avenge their fellow relatives!
Count Atlas sat upright on his horse, and waved his sword at the enemy line with some fanaticism. Then, a rapid trumpet sound rose into the sky.
Receiving the order, the officers turned to look at the crossbowmen in the back row of the line, who were protected behind the infantry, and shouted in unison: "Release!" ”
A thousand hateful crossbowmen are finally happy, and they have been given a chance to avenge their fellow citizens!
I saw that the thousand people raised the crossbows in their hands with cold faces, and pulled the trigger in the direction of the Salander without aiming, and then without waiting for the crossbow arrow to fall, they quickly pulled out a new crossbow arrow from the quiver, wound it again, and let the crossbow arrow roar towards the Salander.
Thousands of bolts formed a dense cloud in the air, humming like locusts passing through.
These murderous weapons shining with cold light quickly cut a small arc in the air, and instantly fell on the heads of the group of Salanders who were gathering in a hurry, and then stabbed down with the endless anger and curse of the Rhodoks!
"Watch out for the crossbow bolts! Raise your shield! ”
Abeni looked at the dense array of crossbow arrows, and couldn't help but be terrified, and hurriedly joined some other Salander officers who had discovered that the situation was wrong, and issued a poignant warning. But it was clearly too late.
The crossbow arrows fired by the Rhodok were densely packed and rained down on the Salanders, and many Salanders who heard the warning but didn't have time to raise their shields were instantly shot through by the sharp bolts and took their lives!
Screams and wails rang out in the ranks of the Salanders themselves, causing a stirring of unease.
The archers of the Salanders were ready to counterattack, but they didn't dare to show their heads under this dense attack! The archers, dressed in leather boots and wrapped in fragile leather armor, were taken care of by the Rhodok snipers, who were constantly wailing and falling under the snipers' precise kills.
Constantly being shot through the throat, into the chest, in the head or through the limbs, the blood was scattered as if it didn't need money, forming a mist of blood in the air. The dying or wounded Salanders who fell to the ground let out a terrifying wail, making the soldiers next to them almost unable to restrain themselves from this hell on earth.
But they don't get the slightest chance to do that!
The demons-like Rhodoks seemed to be tireless, and they rained their crossbow arrows on the heads of the Salanders in waves. The Salander soldiers endured all this with fear, but they didn't know what they had to do to survive.
Just when they could barely restrain themselves from throwing away their weapons and running away, their commander, Chief Nowas, finally arrived!
