Chapter 256: Attack on Hademen
In Ironwood City, there is still a strong team that has not been engaged in battle.
The Red Flame Knights, this heavy cavalry composed of more than eighty knight-level masters was left in Tiemu City by Richard because it was not suitable for playing in the Tiemu Forest, this powerful knight group is currently the last straw for Tiemu City, otherwise it will be a matter of time before the city falls with only those forces on the head of the city at this time.
As the deputy head of Richard's personal title, Hademen has been holding his desire to fight at the request of Viscount Sauter.
It was a helpless move to throw the champion knights into the battle at the head of the city, and without the two champion knights dismounted and fought on foot, I am afraid that when the orc commander Nuno ascended the city, the city of Ironwood could be declared to fall.
As for Hardmen and the eighty Red Flame Knights led by him, Viscount Sauter didn't plan to let them dismount and go to the city to fight a war of attrition against the orcs in such a luxurious way, and the knights should play their due role.
Hademen, who had been anxiously waiting for the battle mission, and many Red Flame Knights finally received the order to attack not long ago, and more than eighty Red Flame Knights stood on the central avenue of Ironwood City wearing heavy armor.
There were no more people coming and going in the middle of the wide avenue, and the flat road was perfect for the cavalry to charge.
Hadmen, who was standing at the front of the line on horseback, did not prepare to speak much, but raised his sword and shouted:
"Knights of the Red Flame!"
"Win, win, win!"
These knights, who were attracted to Richard's prestige, were originally unwilling to be mediocre, and after confirming the Hunters' emphasis on military merit and the system of rewards and punishments, they all had great enthusiasm for war.
There was no need for more agitation from Hardmen, the morale of the Red Flame Knights had already reached its peak, and the friendly troops in the city had been fighting for a long time, and they had suppressed their fighting spirit for a long time.
"Boom, boom..."
An incredible scene happened to the orcs, and the gates of the city that they had been battling for a long time began to open on their own...
"Da, da, da..."
More than eighty Red Flame Knights and twice as many knight squires charged under the leadership of Hadgate as the gates began to open.
Although the Red Flame Horse was heavily armored, the acceleration time was extremely short, and it soon entered a state of charge, and the knight attendants riding the Western Realm Horse were faintly unable to keep up.
Compared with the knights' desire for battle, this group of red flame horses, who have been smelling blood for a long time, have a purer desire for the battlefield, and they like the warm battlefield atmosphere and the strong smell of blood.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The time for the charge led by Hademen was quite perfect, and as soon as the city gate was opened, Hademen and the Chiyan knights who followed closely behind him rushed into the city gate hole.
"Bang!"
There were also more than a dozen tall orc warriors in the cave of the city gate, these orc warriors who were still climbing to the city wall saw the gate of Tiemu City open by themselves, and they didn't care whether there was fraud or not, they always had to come in and test it, and a few warriors who had just been guarding the city gate were not opponents, and they had been killed by more than a dozen orcs.
But before the orcs could rush into the city, they ran into the oncoming Red Flame Knights.
There was no need to make any effort to swing the sword, and these orc warriors who saw the charging Chiyan knights had not had time to run out of the city gate cave and were directly knocked out by the Chiyan knights in iron armor.
Even if they were several times stronger than humans, and generally taller than humans, they could not stop the charge of the Red Flame Knights, and the orc warriors who were knocked to the ground did not have time to struggle, and they were trampled into pulp by the follow-up Red Flame Horses.
The Red Flame Knights who rushed out of the city gate directly disrupted the siege rhythm of the orcs, and a group of orc warriors who only cared about the siege were completely unprepared to resist the heavy cavalry, and they were instantly rushed by the Red Flame Knights and turned over on their backs.
"Block them!"
An orc hundred-man team led by an orc warrior and several orc warriors formed a formation to try to block the sudden rush of the Red Flame Knights, but in a hurry, where could they stop this kind of heavy cavalry composed entirely of knights.
"Kill!"
"Attack them directly and scatter them!"
Hardmen had served in Longxi Pass, needless to say combat experience, at least as an officer of the Knights, he was fully qualified to command such a small-scale battle, and seeing that the other side had a well-formed army trying to stop him, he quickly wanted to disperse this kind of sign.
"Bang!"
The two troops soon collided together, if it was just a group of ordinary cavalry, Hadmen would not dare to give this kind of order easily, how strong the orcs are, others don't know, Hadmen is clear, dozens of ordinary cavalry attacked the orcs, at least they were defeated, and those cavalry had to be the elite of ordinary cavalry,
And now, the Chiyan Knights under the command of Hademen, whether it is knights to war horses and equipment, can be said to be top-notch, if there are more of them, they can be used as trump cards in the Dragon Breath Pass, and a team of orcs with a small number of differences is completely unable to stop the attack of the Chiyan Knights.
Hademen gathered his fighting spirit, and the long knife in his hand slashed directly at the orc great samurai in front of him, and the orc samurai, who was also holding a battle axe, was knocked out by Hademen's blow, rolled on the ground several times and stood up,
The situation of other orc warriors was even worse, the elite orc warriors who only had physical fitness and no fighting spirit, were completely slaughtered by the Red Flame Knights who had been recuperating for a long time.
After the Red Flame Knight's fighting spirit erupted, the long knife in his hand became extremely sharp under the attachment of the fighting energy, and the orc warriors who tried to resist it were difficult to resist the next blow.
"Ahh
Ordinary orc warriors are difficult to resist, and the orc warriors in the team also suffer heavy losses, if they are carried out on foot alone, these orc warriors are likely to be able to defeat a human knight, and the racial advantage is quite obvious,
But at this moment, an orc warrior was immediately besieged by several Red Flame Knights on horseback after being exposed, and it was impossible to form an effective resistance, and the orc team that tried to stop the attack of the Red Flame Knights quickly broke up after losing more than half of it, and it was difficult for the lucky surviving orc warriors to gather the rout in a short time.
"Rush, don't stop, keep killing!"
After crushing the orc hundred-man team in front of him, Hardman continued to lead the Red Flame Knights to rush to the periphery, and the subsequent orc warriors who were still close to the city wall were either directly crushed by it, or they hesitated to stand in place and hesitate, and their morale was hit hard.
"What's going on!"
Nuno had just blocked another missile, although his main attention was on the battle in front of him, he still sensed the noise outside the city and found that something was wrong.
At this time, the armor of the champion knight who fought against him had several dents, and there was even a deep wound on one hand, and he could still hold the sword at this time, and his willpower was firm, but the excessive strength gap was obviously not the will to fight to make up, even if there were two high-ranking monks to cooperate, this champion knight was not Nuno's opponent,
After the initial temptation, Nuno had already adapted to the interference of the blue missile, and after a few more moves, Nuno was confident that he could take down the opponent, but at this moment, the shouts of killing from outside the city distracted him.
"Legion Chief, a human cavalry rushed out of the city gate open, and our follow-up siege troops can't come up!"
"Damn it!"
Nuno looked out of the city, and saw a flaming heavy cavalry riding a tall war horse that he had never seen before was attacking left and right in the orc siege force, and now the siege force was completely cut into two sections, and the follow-up troops could not come up at all.
Although it feels like the capture of the city wall is only a little close, but this point is based on the fact that the follow-up troops are still catching up, otherwise this point of people on the city wall will become a lone army now, and the human army is still rushing over, and they will have to be consumed to death when the time comes!
"Raff! Take someone back first! ”
After struggling for a few seconds, Nuno made a decisive decision.
When he left the city wall, he glanced at the champion knight who was already out of power, and the palms of the two senior monks in the distance began to gather blue light again...
