Rick's warning was already very obvious, but the other party obviously didn't realize what Rick meant at this time, and instead laughed even more arrogantly.
"Lao Tzu just likes to look at family heirlooms, bring them to me!!"
Plain, your big hand grabbed the ice pillar on Rick's back very unceremoniously.
Rick's eyes sank, his shoulders shook, and he dodged the other party's grasp, and then reached out, and the black man's fingers were in Rick's hand.
The thumb joints were so hard that there was a "click" that was crisp throughout the camp.
The black man was stunned at first, and then screamed like a wounded cow: "Ah~!! My hands, my hands!! When Rick let go, the other party clutched his completely twisted finger, and he didn't know what to do, so he could only wail and cry bitterly to find his captain.
Rick's gaze was calm and terrifying, and he slowly closed his eyes and continued to rest.
Soon the news spread throughout the camp, and everyone knew that the seemingly ordinary young man was not a good man.
After that, the matter subsided, as long as it wasn't a matter of human life and any cripples, the general superior officers would not get too involved in the affairs of these recruits, so even if the other party was said by Rick who broke a finger, but for the defense of the city in this matter, it was not a matter of life at all.
Because everyone's occasional experience at this time is placed on those crusaders.
Faced with an increasingly severe form, the city lord once again issued a mandatory conscription order.
The number of deaths continues to rise, and basically the meat grinder on the city wall, and basically those who can survive are the elite.
Simple training took less than two days. On the morning of the third day. Rick, the new recruit, was pushed onto a section of the defensive wall.
Although I was already somewhat mentally prepared. No one had eaten breakfast, but when they smelled the heavy smell of blood on the city wall, many of them still showed a pale face, as if they had been forced to pour a large mouthful of arsenic, and their faces were gloomy and ugly.
The corpses had been cleaned up, but in the cracks in the walls and bricks, some purple-black viscous material could still be seen, and Yingga was some flesh or some internal organs stuck in it.
Embark on the city walls. The feet are unnaturally a little uncomfortable, it feels like stepping on glue, a full half a month of meat grinder infiltration, even if someone will come to clear the city wall every day, but there will still be an uncomfortable sticky feeling when stepping on it.
Don't think about eating, and if you fight for a while, you're sure you'll vomit and say, so these recruits obeyed the veteran's advice and didn't eat what might be the last breakfast.
"Here," a gendarmerie veteran reminded in a quiet whisper as he glanced at the movement beneath the city walls.
The recruits on the city wall, which was quiet like a cemetery, immediately followed the veteran's gaze and let go of their vision.
Crusaders holding tower shields below. They had approached the city walls, but the veterans were expressionless and did not give any orders.
It's not that they don't want to kill and injure the enemy. But half a month of siege warfare has almost exhausted the entire Iron and Stone City's defense weapons, the houses around the city walls have been demolished, and those building materials have also become weapons to defend the city, and they have been smashed on the bodies of those unlucky people, but it is still not enough.
But if you continue to demolish it, maybe you don't have to wait for reinforcements to come, and the entire Iron and Stone City will be demolished by your own people.
Therefore, in order to make these small number of defense weapons play a greater role, they will basically not take the initiative to attack until the enemy starts to climb the city wall.
When more than a dozen crusaders climbed the walls at the same time, the veteran of the gendarmerie ordered: "Prepare the stones and the wood!" As he spoke, he raised his hand, and his cold gaze swept over the many recruits, and then he slammed into his command.
"Boom" "Knock"
All kinds of building materials were thrown directly against the city wall, and those experienced crusaders clung to the foothold carved out of the city wall, and resisted the attack of these siege weapons, and after falling thirty or forty people, they continued to climb up frantically.
"You have to remember that once these madmen enter the city, we will be all finished, your family and relatives and friends will not be spared, we are already mortal enemies, even if you surrender, these madmen will not give you a way to live, so you have only one choice, that is"
"Kill!!"
With the loud mobilization of the gendarmerie personnel, the crowd frantically held spears and stabbed the crusaders who had just emerged from their heads.
"Ahh
The first scream, like a signal flare, began again after a day of fierce war.
Rick hid in the crowd at this time, relying on the prestige he had built, and was the first to approach the crusaders who had climbed the walls.
His arms drooped, and his whole body stabbed out with an indomitable momentum, the tip of the spear quickly stabbed into the opponent's chest along the crack in the bone, and then Rick pulled out his spear fiercely, and was sprayed all over his face by the splatters of blood.
Just like the rehearsal, Rick took a step back slightly, and another recruit next to him suddenly stepped out, also with a fierce stab.
The people around them basically rehearsed according to the long ago, forming the number of two brigades. It will not blindly attack everyone, but a very efficient group of people will attack first, and then in the interval between the attacks, the other person will immediately follow the attack, so that there will be no gaps and pauses in the attack frequency on the entire city wall.
This is also the experience summed up in the crazy battles of several days.
Forward, retreat, stab
After gradually becoming familiar with this life-converging technique, everyone slowly fell from the initial excitement and madness into the attack system that the machine ignored.
Even if the companion next to him dies, it won't bring too much feeling to everyone, because everyone has only one thought in their hearts at this time, that is, to continue their attacks, only by continuing their own attacks, can they live, as long as they can continue to last, then the final victory still belongs to Tiecheng.
By noon, after only a few hours of offensive and defensive battles, hundreds of people had already died, and because it was the defending side, it stands to reason that there should be fewer dead people here.
Iron and Stone City is indeed less, but the blow to morale is very severe.
The other party is very obvious in the number of people who want to give the enemy of Ironstone City alive, because although the proportion of hunger is about four to one, or even higher casualty ratio starvation, but Ironstone City also has casualties, and once the opponent's crusaders break through a gap, the morale of the entire defenders will drop greatly.
Fortunately, the other party has been an ordinary crusader attacking the city during this time, and if you add more advanced warrior apprentices, then things will be in trouble.
Of course, the other party would not be willing to lose so many low-level crusaders, and the reason why they did not send a large number of high-level apprentice warriors was because behind the defense line of the people, a large number of shadow creatures appeared, blocking the pace of the siege army.
Otherwise, according to the configuration and number of personnel of the crusaders, Ironstone City would have been captured long ago.
For half a month, because of the harassment and assassination of a large number of logisticians by those shadow creatures, the Holy Dove of Peace Church had to disperse some of its energy to eliminate these shadow creatures.
Because there are so many shadow creatures, the Holy Dove Church of Peace can only send all of its high-end combat power to destroy these shadow creatures that ordinary people can't target.
As a result, only ordinary crusaders remained in the crusaders of the Holy Peace Church State, and those who were at least senior apprentices and above, were all dispatched to deal with those shadow creatures.
The situation began to tilt in favor of the Empire again, but this tilt did not last long, because today in the battle, Rick felt a large amount of energy fluctuations coming from the Crusader's defense, although he didn't know what was going on, but Rick knew that something must be wrong, otherwise how could there be such a strong energy fluctuation in the Crusader defense.
This fluctuation was felt even by all the wizards and professionals in Ironstone City, and everyone thought that they should go over and take a look, otherwise this ang would do nothing, and it was very likely that he would give up the best chance to annihilate the enemy.
Because Ironstone City really doesn't have any chance, if this kind of siege war continues, then Ironstone City and the city will soon be broken, once the city is broken, even with the ability of those professionals and wizards, they can only choose to protect themselves, if they want to turn the tide, in this kind of large-scale battle, it will take at least a fifth-order or even higher powerful professional to do it.
Not to mention the fifth order, the entire iron and stone has not been able to find a storage zĂ i beyond the third order.
Therefore, this energy fluctuation is a timely opportunity, and it is also a possibility, if everyone continues to shrink in the city, then what awaits everyone will be the Holy Peace Dove Church to ease up, and then they will concentrate on dealing with these defenders of Ironstone City.
Therefore, everyone unanimously asked to go out of the city to check the specific situation, even if there was almost no effect, then it was okay, at least it could play a role in confusing the enemy and harassing hostility.
The city lord thought about it, these people have basically fallen under the curse of the third-order professional, so it is basically impossible for these people to betray it, but if someone sneaks away, then it will be troublesome to find someone who can lift the curse evenly.
The movement of the crusaders has already appeared some abnormalities, and the city lord was still hesitating to say, but at this time, seeing that the crusaders were all abnormal, he made up his mind fiercely.
This time, those who go out to investigate the situation can only be professionals, even if they are apprentices and a few occupations, they can also go out of the city.
The number of people was limited to a hundred, and it didn't matter to the rest of the people except those who were bound to go out of the City Lord's Mansion. (To be continued......)
