Chapter 247 Guarding the City Gate
Under the main city gate, Ma Long stood here steadily, keeping the wild boar riding outside.
On the other side, one of the three gates of the southern city, the small gate on the left side was smashed open, and the orc cavalry frantically broke in.
When Malone heard the sound, he couldn't help but retreat.
Turning his head, he saw that the orc cavalry had rushed into the city through the doorway.
Although the human knight tried his best to stop it, he was helpless in the face of the huge impact of the boar ride!
At that moment, a sturdy figure with a double-edged battle axe leaped down from the city wall.
Before he landed, it was a volley of attacking and killing swordsmanship, splitting a wild boar rider from head to head and straddle, and splitting it in two with his mount.
It's John!
"It's Lord John!"
The knights let out a cry of excitement!
Ma Long also breathed a sigh of relief, with him blocking it, there would be no problem......
John's strength is strong enough, and his reputation is usually not obvious, but he is just overshadowed by Marlon.
At this time, it was finally fully displayed, although the orc cavalry was brave, they could not cross the thunder pool after all!
Marlon looked back at his side, and the orcs had already taken this opportunity to clean up a lot of corpses in the way.
He didn't stop them, and it was better to let them continue to attack here than to run elsewhere to cause wind and rain.
No one knows if the other party will do something else if they find that there is no hope here.
It's always reassuring to have your own eyes here!
In terms of overall strength, humanity is, after all, at a disadvantage.
"It's ......"
However, seeing that the city gate was empty, the orcs did not continue to send cavalry to attack, but carried twenty city defense crossbows.
Ma Long immediately understood the plan of the orcs, and the commander of the other party was not a fool, knowing that he couldn't beat him, he had to let his subordinates die in vain.
"Get out of the way!" He waved his hand back, causing the knights behind him to retreat to both sides of the gate.
When the opponent shoots an arrow, just avoid it yourself.
"Your Excellency?" The knight captain was a little hesitant, he felt that he shouldn't leave his lord here alone.
Only this hesitation, but it was too late......
"Woo woo woo ......"
Twenty crossbow bolts shot straight at them with a fierce wind.
Malone didn't have time to blame his subordinates for disobeying the order, and waved his weapon to meet him.
A group of knights have not yet retreated behind their backs, so it's best to block all these arrows to avoid losses!
He had forgotten about the resurrection technique, and he couldn't think of anything else.
I just don't want to hurt the people behind me!
The dragon halberd slashed round on the first arrow, only to feel a shock in his hand, and it had already knocked it away.
Although twenty ballistas were fired at the same time, Ma Long's keen eyesight was able to distinguish the slight speed difference caused by the different performance of the equipment and the reaction of the personnel.
All arrows come in batches.
The second batch of two did not pose a threat to him, but the third batch of eight made his palms a little numb.
Ma Long, who was behind, also took them one by one with his weapons, and he didn't miss them, but his entire right arm trembled slightly.
"Withdraw!"
He turned his back to the knight behind him and gave a loud order.
The captain finally knew that he and the others had done something stupid, so he dragged his feet, lowered his head and did not speak, and retreated to both sides of the city gate with his men.
"Woo Woo ......"
Another wave of crossbows fired, and Ma Long blocked the first two batches, and after seeing that his own people were not in the attack range, he dodged to avoid them.
Twenty ballistas can't keep him, if it weren't for the special terrain here and the drag of his knights, it would be difficult for the other party to target him!
Looking at the knight captain who bowed his head and admitted his mistake, Ma Long probably knew what the other party thought.
However, the military order on the battlefield was the largest, and he couldn't tolerate personal thoughts, so he said in a deep voice: "You have also learned discipline, and you will go down to receive the punishment yourself after the battle!" ”
"Yes!"
When the orcs saw Marlon avoid it, they pushed the ballista cart and moved forward.
When I saw someone showing his head, it was a rain of arrows.
"Hey......" Malone sneered, "Are you thinking too simply?" ”
Naturally, the orcs couldn't understand what he was saying!
When the ballista was pushed to the inner edge of the city wall, Malone made a savage charge, and his figure shot out and plunged straight into the opposing military formation.
The dragon halberd slashed out diagonally, splitting the enemy army in front of him with the car in half!
The knight behind the "...... Killer" also rushed to fight with the orcs.
Ma Long rushed back and forth in the doorway, and in just a few breaths, he completely disrupted the enemy formation.
The knight behind him cooperated tacitly, divided it into small pieces, and quickly killed them.
"Rush! Charge me ......" The orc overseers outside the city gate pointed at Marlon and roared loudly in anger, "I'll consume him too!" ”
The boar rider began to charge again......
In the distance, a temporary high platform made of trees.
The Grand Overseer looked at the battle, and then looked at the sky.
He knew that he had little hope of success, and that every time passed, the possibility of attacking was a little smaller.
Looking at the mountains of corpses piled up at the city gate, he never thought that there were such warriors among the human race, who would resist the cavalry charge with all their might.
Such a strong man is rare among orcs, but none of them came this time.
No one thought that weak humans could fight like this, if it weren't for those long-eared elves, if it weren't for those wizards who broke their promises, how could they ......
Every time he thought about this, the Overseer was filled with resentment, wishing that he could cut it with a thousand knives......
Marlon stood guard inside the doorway, killing batch after batch of orc cavalry.
Although I couldn't understand what the other party was saying, I probably knew that I wanted to kill myself.
It's a pity that they don't know that relative to strength, resilience is Ma Long's strength.
It's impossible to exhaust it with such an attack frequency!
The narrow terrain of the Gate Cave is a huge restriction for the attacker.
Only so many people can enter each time, and the huge body of the wild boar needs to be cleaned up after death before it can attack again, this is Ma Long's recovery time.
If the other party changes infantry, he doesn't even need Ma Long, and the knights under his command can hold it.
"There won't be too many people like that!" Seeing that it was getting late and the morale of his men was gradually declining, the two gates could not be breached in a short time, so they couldn't help but focus on the last gate.
Artillery was roaring there, stopping the orcs from attacking.
That section of the wall is also the only one that is completely under the control of humans.
The other party is so tightly guarded, there must be a problem!
Perhaps, as I thought, human beings have no more power left.
With a wave of his hand, a large number of infantry risked their lives to charge, and after suffering more than 1,000 casualties, they finally broke through the city gate.
"Kill ......" the orcs mixed in foot, raised their weapons, and rushed into the city with loud shouts......
The distance between the three gates of Nancheng is not far, and Ma Long is at the gate in the center.
You can see the small door on the left, and you can see the door on the right.
The gates were broken, and he could see them clearly.
After taking a deep breath, he ordered the knight behind him, "Go, let the knights get ready to attack......"
"Yes!"
There was not so much etiquette in the battlefield, and the knight answered, pulled two of his companions, and turned away. 2k reading web
