Chapter 294, Becoming a Trendy (Ask for Subscription~!!)
Use brute force to knock the Alien General off his horse.
But without the Valyrian steel sword, Robert used the dragon crystal dagger, which was not so easy to kill the ghost general who fell to the ground, and the blue ice armor easily blocked the black crystal blade.
"Your Majesty, I'll help you!"
Seeing this, Anne hurriedly ran wildly with the Dark Sisters in her hand, and aimed her sword at the magical creature that had fallen into the snow and was suppressed by the Fat Emperor.
"Zheng~"
The fat emperor blessed the fist of the holy light, but the strange ghost general was only beaten a little painfully, as a powerful magical creature, it was impossible to be brutally killed.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the girl holding the Valyrian steel sword killing, and the ice crystal blade immediately stood up to block, and then pushed the depressed fat man away with his strength.
"Look for death!"
Robert was pushed to a stumbling position, and when he stood firm, he slashed at the Strange General with his greatsword blessed with holy light.
"Bell~"
"Zheng~" "Zheng~"
The ice armor on the Alien General's body is not an ornament, it cannot be broken, and it is difficult to really hurt it.
And the ordinary steel forged sword, even if it is enchanted with the power of holy light, and slashes against the ice blade of the strange ghost, it will still break after many times.
"Arthur, I need more strength!"
Losing his broadsword, Robert did not back down, raising his fist and blasting out like a cannonball.
"Bang~" "Bang~" "Bang~"
Under the bombardment of terrifying power, the ice armor on the ghost general's body was actually cracked by the fist!
The ice crystal blade stabbed with thorns and slashed wildly, but because of Arthur's existence, it was completely unable to break through the protection of the holy shield.
As powerful as a ghost general, it can't help Robert!
With the successive violent blows of the fists.
The cracked ice armor has been shattered!
On the face of the ghost general, the fear of all the previous actions finally appeared!
Seeing that the emperor was beating the magical creatures all the time, Anne didn't bother, but helped eliminate the surrounding ghouls so that the battle between the two would not be disturbed.
Under the blow of the forces of terror.
The ghost general began to be unable to even hold the ice crystal blade steadily, and fell dizzily into the snow, and was beaten by the warrior emperor with a fierce fist in the face!
"Drink~ give me death!"
"Boom~"
The shield that protected his fist shattered, and the magical creatures on the snow turned into ice chips and scattered!
"Roar!"
Killing a stranger with his fists, Robert's blood boiled all over his body, his eyes were red, and when he saw another stranger general who was fighting with the Earl of Jiaoling, he immediately moved his feet and charged like a bull.
Ride on the back of a dragon and guide Rego to breathe fire on the ghoul cavalry.
The busy Arthur couldn't protect the emperor's blessed shield, and he didn't know what was going on with him, why the shield was so easy to break, and he had to keep blessing him.
A ghost general is found to have been punched to death by him.
He immediately understood what was going on, and hurriedly blessed the Warrior Emperor with a stronger holy shield protection.
Anne rushed to Lancelot's aid as well.
Under siege, the two ghost generals who commanded the ghoul cavalry immediately began to retreat, and a large number of ghoul cavalry also turned to kill the battle array, no longer frantically attacking the soldiers in the battle array.
"How do they convey orders?"
Seeing the stranger retreating, the ghoul cavalry also turned forward suddenly, and there was no sound from the stranger general, Arthur was a little curious about how the magical creatures controlled the resurrected dead.
"Is it with mental power?"
Doubts flashed through his mind, and Arthur quickly came to his senses and sent Rego after the ghoul cavalry as they tried to retreat.
But before the bronze dragon could rise into the air, an ice crystal spear of more than five meters flew in.
Protected by the holy shield, the ice spear collided with the pale gold shield and shattered, and before Arthur could concentrate on releasing his spiritual power, he had to determine the location of the strange ghost who threw the ice spear.
Barristan shouted at him: "Your Highness, it is important to support Houguan Town, don't chase it." ”
It's right to be poor and don't chase after you.
But Arthur felt that the ghost general and the ghoul were not his opponents, so it was equivalent to letting them live for nothing.
Seeing the prince's hesitation, Landau Tully hurriedly said, "Your Highness, the ghouls are hiding in the snow to attack us, and you ride a dragon to chase and kill, I'm afraid you will encounter some traps." ”
"Okay. For the sake of caution, Arthur, who heard the reminder, decisively gave up the idea of pursuit, and then said, "I'm circling over the troops, you guys hurry up and regroup." ”
He reminded him that Randolph Tully, who was a famous tiger general in Westeros, immediately asked people to count the wounded and deal with the chaos when the ghost general and the ghoul cavalry retreated.
Sir Barristan, Gawain, Lancelot, Ranmarlock, and others got busy.
Relying on the dragon to protect them in the sky, they lost more than 2,000 people, but the remaining 5,000 or so soldiers were elite, and immediately marched towards Houguan Town again.
Houguan Town's side.
Free folk warriors and resurrected ghouls engage in a tug-of-war over the ice parapet.
The black dragon that flies in the sky breathes in support from time to time.
Because of the powerful dragon and the dragon crystal weapon that can kill ghouls, the morale of the free people defending the city has always been high, and they are not too afraid of the ghouls who seem to be inexhaustible.
The main thing is that there are no strange ghosts.
If the Strange Spirits lead the ghouls to attack, the parapet will certainly be difficult to defend against their terrifying onslaught.
"It's so strange, why aren't there any strange ghosts?"
After letting Drogon land and rest for a while, Daenerys stepped down from the dragon's back and let Liadline escort her to Jorah and Angela.
Hearing the queen's words, she was called the savage princess, and she picked up the dragon crystal spear and joined the battle, and said: "The powerful dragon queen, in the face of the powerful black dragon, the small number of strange ghosts will definitely not dare to appear." ”
Daenerys frowned, shook her head, and said, "The stranger has wisdom, and the Night King once divided his troops to attack Winterfell, and also set up an ambush against Robert, Sir Barristan and others......
After the capture, Guanzhen can go straight to the Great Wall and the Black Castle, such an important battle, it is impossible for the strange ghosts to dare not appear because of the dragon. ”
Put the sword back into its sheath and guard it beside the queen, while resting for a while, Jorah frowned and said, "Your Majesty means that the strange ghosts have another conspiracy?"
The silver-haired queen nodded, then asked in a deep voice, "Jorah, if you were a stranger, how would you attack the Great Wall?"
As an advisor, Jorah thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, if I am the king of the alien spirits and want to defeat the human race, I don't need to break through the Great Wall at all.
As long as you lead an army of ghouls to constantly attack small and medium-sized castles, kill the humans in the castles, and then transform them into ghouls, you can have up to hundreds of thousands of dead armies.
Even a large city like Winterfell can be captured, and with sheer numerical superiority, the army of ghouls has been able to sweep through Westeros. ”
"Then why did the Night King go north to attack the Great Wall?"
Daenerys still couldn't figure this out.
Jorah guessed, "The Night King must have an intention in doing this, maybe this intention... It's to get the attention of all of us, so that it can control the army of ghouls to sneak up on castles in the north and go south......"
Angela slashed the ghouls and returned to the Dragon Queen's side: "I agree with Jorah's advisor's guess. ”
The silver-haired queen shook her head: "But we can't abandon the Great Wall. ”
"Yes, we can't let the Wall be attacked from both sides. Jorah was also troubled by this, and came up with an idea, "Your Majesty, maybe we can ride a dragon to various castles to support..."
But as soon as he finished saying this, he shook his head and denied: "But this still doesn't work, we only have two dragons, and there are more than ten big families in the north alone, not to mention the south, so this kind of support will not work." ”
Daenerys shook her head helplessly: "Then we can only defend Houguan Town first, and then discuss it when everyone comes." ”
The battle on the outer parapet of Houguan Town continued.
The ghouls kept the rhythm in their tracks, pounding against the parapet walls of ice water and wood and mud.
There was Arthur riding Rego to escort.
More than 5,000 reinforcements led by Robert were finally about to arrive in Houguan Town at this time.
Looking at the skyrocketing fire in the distance, Arthur directly asked Rego to fly over first, and Dragon Burn cleaned up a wave of ghouls and landed in the camp.
"Reinforcements have arrived, and we have been attacked by a ghoul on the way here, and the losses are not small, so please be prepared to respond. ”
Hearing this, Daenerys nodded solemnly and walked towards the resting black dragon: "I will act with you to give me and Zhuo Geng a holy shield protection." ”
"No problem. ”
Absorbing light and the power of nature, the holy light in Arthur's body became stronger and qualitative, and at the same time, it also changed quantitatively, blessing and protecting Drogon and the Dragon Queen, and also gave benefits to the surrounding Jorah, Angela, Liadrin, and a group of freedmen.
Feeling an unprecedented increase in strength, the freedfolk warriors once again burst into high morale.
Dragons fly, breathing light up the night sky.
With two powerful magical creatures escorting above, under the rapid march of reinforcements under Commander Robert, there is no need to rush away from the ghouls besieging Houguan Town, and directly set up a position to attack.
The infantry battle formation composed of shields, spears, and steel swords was indeed unable to stop the charge of the ghoul cavalry, but in the face of ordinary ghoul infantry, the soldiers maintained cooperation with each other, and the pace of advance was unhindered.
"Let's kill all the ghouls outside Houguan Town!"
Seeing that the killing effect of the battle array was excellent, Robert raised the dragon crystal spear and shouted, and then led Barristan and the others to charge.
Protected by the Holy Shield, ignoring the damage of the sword soldiers, the torrent of the charge quickly reaped fruitful results on the outskirts of Houguan Town.
However.
Don't wait for the coalition soldiers and freedmen to be happy for a while.
The snow in the night sky is getting bigger, the cold wind is fierce,—— the blizzard is coming again!
Sensing the strange spirits casting ice magic, causing elemental power to permeate, Arthur, Gianna, and Ambrosius all understood what was going on.
"I think the Night King is around. ”
When Daenerys heard this, she knew that Arthur wanted to find out the location of the Night King by herself, and hurriedly said, "Don't act alone, let's go find it out together!"
"Good. ”
The blizzard came suddenly.
Robert and the others, who were charging on horseback, soon couldn't see clearly the area where there was no flame.
In Westeros, most knights and warriors were trained from an early age and had good food to nourish them, and not many had night blindness.
However, when a snowstorm occurs, visibility becomes low, which makes it easy to accidentally injure friendly troops, and it is difficult to distinguish the direction of the cavalry charge.
Feeling that the situation was not favorable for the cavalry to move, Barristan hurriedly said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it is time for us to enter Houguan Town." ”
The Fat Emperor did not object, and took the cavalry back along the parapet wall to join the infantry battle array.
"Come into town in batches with me!"
Earl Jiaoling, who was commanding the war, said: "I will command the soldiers to break the rear." ”
But.
The army of ghouls, which had maintained its rhythm and continuously attacked the outer parapet wall of Houguan Town, suddenly stopped attacking!
