Chapter 263. Ambush under bunker!!
With the lessons that those spearmen had learned with their blood before, it was naturally impossible for the imperial soldiers who rushed into the city of the dead to be unprepared, so after sensing the surprise attack of these skeleton archers, they immediately dispersed towards the surrounding bunkers, so although the surprise attack of thousands of skeleton archers was somewhat unexpected, it did not cause a large number of casualties. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Whoosh whoosh—"
A large number of bone arrows were quickly thrown down like locusts, and it was undoubtedly extremely foolish to choose to rush forward in such a situation, and one soldier quickly looked for cover.
Therefore, after several rounds of arrow rain attacks, except for the first round of arrow rain that hit many Imperial soldiers, the damage caused by subsequent bone arrows to the Imperial warriors was almost zero.
When the bone-arrow attack of the torrential rain stalled slightly, one of the infantrymen quickly counterattacked with the help of the terrain.
"Bang bang-"
As a soldier pulled the trigger, the skeleton warriors in front of him who had no time to dodge and the skeleton archers located on the building walked into the trap together.
In modern warfare, the lethality of the flintlock pistol is particularly amazing, in addition to the lead bullet fired has a fatal blow to the enemy's body, but also to a large extent to weaken the morale of the opponent, and the lead bullet fired by the flintlock pistol does not hit the enemy's vital parts, one blow will kill, but once the lead bullet enters the human body, then the other party can not help but suffer severe pain, and the probability of being treated and surviving is also extremely low.
It's just that all this has no effect on the skeleton warriors and skeleton archers in front of them.
How can these dead things with no mood swings at all have a situation similar to a morale fall, even if they know that there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of them, as long as the consciousness behind the scenes gives an order, these guys will not hesitate to carry it out, as for the damage to the body, these guys are already dead things, and it is naturally impossible to be affected by this aspect, so the lead bullet falls on these undead skeletons, and the power is actually one in ten.
However, the skeleton structure of these low-level cannon fodder is naturally not very strong, and under the almost continuous roar of lead bullets from these line infantry, the undead skeletons fell one after another.
It was naturally not enough to passively bear the blow like this, so under the influence of the will behind the scenes, the skeleton warrior began to frantically wave the bone blade in his hand, and rushed over without fear of death.
Although these skeleton warriors are completely unafraid of death, their body structure has its own limitations, under the effect of the flintlock pistol's continuous spewing of flames, the skeleton warriors fall one after another, but this famous skeleton warrior will not be affected in the slightest, but continue to charge forward without fear of death, as if he will not give up until the guy whose name is hiding behind the shattered boulder is eliminated.
Although it was hundreds of meters away from the battlefield in front of him, through the refraction effect of the telescope, Chopin could naturally see the "foolish" charging actions of these skeleton warriors, which he naturally despised very much, but deep down he couldn't help but increase the vigilance coefficient of these undead skeletons a lot.
A group of people who are not afraid of death, no matter what time it is, is extremely terrifying.
"Click, click, click—"
One after another skeleton warriors were hit by lead bullets fired by the line infantry while running, and then the white bones on their bodies couldn't help but appear one crack after another, and finally with a "snap" sound, the pale head fell to the dark black earth, and the dark blue soul fire that was still flickering was also quickly extinguished.
And after paying the heavy price of hundreds of skeletal warriors, these slightly tragic creatures finally approached the hiding place of the line infantry, but before they could engage in a desperate struggle with these line infantry, a spearman in front of them suddenly jumped out and stood in front of these line infantry.
Naturally, there is nothing to say about the next, under the influence of the will behind the scenes, these skeleton warriors are naturally sworn to kill those line infantry, so the attacks they send out are completely desperate, completely offensive and not defensive, as if they want to solve the group of roadblocks in front of them in the shortest possible time.
It's just that these skeleton warriors are ruthless enough, and the spearmen under Chopin are not the same, under the effect of the whole battle system, the loyalty of all the imperial soldiers under him has been pulled to the extreme, and there will definitely be no escape.
For the glory of God and the glory of France, even at the last moment of their lives, this group of warriors of the French Empire will swear to stop this group of skeleton warriors.
The bone knife and the spear collided wildly again and again, the pale bones and the sturdy arms were trembling violently, but one side never had the slightest emotional fluctuation on his face, mechanically repeating the movements in his hands, while the other side was more and more flushed over time, and his mouth was even more crazy gasps, but no matter how this group of skeleton warriors fought for their lives, this group of spearmen of the French Empire never refused to take a step back.
The crimson blood continued to drip to the ground, and the Imperial warriors also continued to suffer casualties under the crazy assault of these damn skeletons, but in the same way, the skulls of these skeleton warriors also rolled down from time to time on the ground, and with the fall of the dark blue soul fire, white points of light also flashed from time to time.
The fact that this group of Imperial warriors had used their blood proved that if they wanted to attack the line infantry behind them, they had to step over their corpses first.
Just when the two sides were entangled like this, the Balek infantry scattered from both sides also quickly joined the battlefield.
The confrontation between these skeleton warriors and spearmen in front of them was originally evenly matched, but with the addition of these elite foreign legions, the situation was completely on Chopin's side.
The skeleton archers in the rear, who were constantly gathering and lurking, had not yet thrown a rain of arrows, but the line infantry who had already discovered their existence launched a stormy attack at the first time.
The power of the bone arrows thrown by these skeleton archers is indeed not to be underestimated, but no matter how powerful these bone arrows are, they cannot compare to the black pressure lead bullets that are spewed out of the barrel of the gun.
Driven by the expanding force of the gunpowder, the lead bullets slashed through the sky like phantoms, and then "touched" with the skeleton warrior at a speed that was almost indistinguishable to the naked eye, and then formed an impact!
The impact of the lead bullet burst out instantly, like a high-speed car, rushing straight through the road, under the invasion of such an amazing power, how could the fragile pale bones of the famous skeleton archer resist, almost instantly, the body flew out upside down, and in the area where the lead bullet fell, a large number of fragments kept falling off.
And this is just the power of a lead bullet, and a salvo of these line infantry is a metal storm composed of hundreds or even hundreds of lead bullets.
However, while inflicting a large number of casualties on these skeleton archers, the bone arrows that were thrown one by one also did a lot of damage to these line infantry.
Although Chopin never underestimated the existence of these undead skeletons from beginning to end, the sudden explosion of lethality from these skeleton archers at this time still surprised Chopin a little.
When one of the bone arrows falls, it will instantly bring out an astonishing explosive force around it, just like the bursting arrows in the previous game. Although the power is far less than that of the blasting bullet, it is just as deadly to these flesh-and-blood line infantry.
And where would Chopin's line infantry think that there would be such a change, and when they were caught off guard, many people were also recruited.
Seeing this scene from afar, Chopin's face couldn't help but become a lot gloomy, and then he saw his eyes glare, and his pale blue eyes instantly appeared with a surging white light.
"Sure enough."
As the white light in his eyes dissipated, Chopin's heart suddenly understood, on the flying bone arrows, I don't know when it has been stained with a touch of darkness, he has seen the strange ink color infected with magic after the amazing power erupted, at this time saw that the power of the bone arrows increased sharply after landing, so he also guessed a few points, at this time using the "holy light" to observe, it was indeed not what he expected.
Chopin was still thinking about it, but the confrontation with those skeleton warriors was gradually coming to an end.
Under the attack of the spearmen and the Barek infantry, these skeleton warriors, no matter how fierce they were to death, seemed to be a little overwhelmed, and could only barely resist.
And under the frantic encirclement and suppression of the spearmen and Barek infantry on the front and flanks, the lives of these skeleton warriors were also eaten away little by little.
Seeing that the skeleton warriors in front of them were in danger, the skeleton archers in the rear who were shooting at the line infantry seemed to have received some order, and they had another round of shooting with those line infantry, and a group of "people" quickly disappeared from the line of infantry's field of vision, as for the life or death of those skeleton soldiers, they didn't even look at it.
"Click-"
When the last of the skeleton warriors fell, the Imperial soldiers did not rush to continue their advance, but stayed where they were.
Fighting with this group of dead things who are not afraid of death, for these imperial warriors, the pressure is undoubtedly quite great, although under the effect of the system, the imperial soldiers recruited by Chopin are also not afraid of death, but they are not dead things like skeleton warriors after all, these imperial warriors have their own emotions, they will also fear, retreat, of course, more often, show blood and madness.
However, they are different from those undead skeletons after all, in addition to emotional fluctuations, and the confrontation with these skeleton warriors, where do they dare to be careless, so their physical strength has been rapidly consumed, and the strength of wielding knives and spears will continue to decline from the original momentum, but these skeleton warriors on the opposite side are out-and-out dead things, since the beginning of the confrontation, from beginning to end, they will not have any physical exhaustion.
At first, the confrontation between the spearmen and these skeleton warriors could be said to be evenly matched, or even secure, but as time passed, they gradually fell into decline, and were even faintly pressed down.
The human body is not a machine after all, with the continuous decline of physical strength, these spearmen whether it is the strength of wielding spears, or avoiding the attacks of those skeleton warriors, seem a little reluctant, but fortunately, there are Barek infantry regiments that attacked from both flanks, which alleviated the original decline, otherwise, the two sides will continue to collide, and these spearmen are only afraid that they will be killed by this group of skeleton warriors.
After this battle, hundreds of the spearmen that Chopin had just recruited fell permanently, and as for those line infantry, under the action of the "bursting arrows", more than 100 people were buried here, which can be said to be a heavy loss, and the most intact of them were the Barlake infantry who later attacked from both flanks, and only dozens of Barlake infantry died under the counterattack of those skeleton warriors.
While the soldiers were resting, Chopin brought the slow-moving team to a halt.
At this time, they were only a hundred or two hundred meters away from the city of the undead, but the more they continued to advance, the deeper the sense of crisis in Chopin's heart became, so he simply stopped the team for the time being.
Obviously, those skeletons in front of him have been cleaned up by the "Pioneer Battalion", so why does he still feel like this?
After thinking about it carefully, just when Chopin himself thought that he was a little overly nervous and was about to let the army continue to advance, his eyes suddenly swept over the area in front of him that was covered by rubble, as if he had thought of something, and a surging chill suddenly appeared in his eyes.
The thoughts in his heart were already spinning rapidly, but Chopin did not have any emotional fluctuations on his face, but first let the soldiers who were resting in place retreat, and at the same time, he quietly gave orders to the artillery in the rear.
Hearing Chopin's order, these artillerymen looked quite confused, but since it was an order from His Majesty the King, they would naturally carry it out meticulously.
As a result, the 6-pounder cavalry gun, which had been advancing and then stopped, suddenly turned around and retreated.
After retreating a distance of about 100 meters, the cavalry guns all stopped, and then the artillery began to reload nervously.
Solid black bullets were constantly filled into the bronze tubes, and at Chopin's order, the gunners immediately lit the fuses, and the target was the place where the spearmen and the skeleton warriors had clashed before.
"Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom T
The roar was like a thunderstorm, and under the terrifying majesty of the gods, the shattered stones danced wildly again.
Just when an Imperial soldier was puzzled by Chopin's actions, hundreds of skeletons suddenly jumped out from under the cover covered by the rubble, and then fled quickly towards the depths of the city of the dead.
