Chapter 44: Defending is Attacking

I don't know the confidence of these gnolls, the first wave of assault gnolls wiped out the streets so quickly, and there was no form of impact on the second wave of gnolls.

Well, that doesn't seem entirely true.

It is estimated that the fate of the last companion in front of him who tried to jump directly over the trench was a little too tragic.

The seven gnolls in the second wave of attacks had realized that the trench that seemed to be easy to cross with a slight jump in front of them did not seem to be as simple as they had imagined.

So in the minds of these jackals whose way of thinking is relatively straight, such an idea was born very quickly.

This inconspicuous trench is dangerous.

You can't just jump over it.

To use the winding one.

After such a simple and direct thought process was completed, the 7 gnolls rushed towards the passage that Vasily had deliberately retained.

This deliberately reserved passage was only 3 people wide in total, and 7 gnolls rushed up in one go, and immediately crowded together without any suspense.

To say that these gnolls are not completely brainless.

When entering the passage, the three varieties with shields and swords were at the front, and the remaining four ordinary varieties with only hand axes followed honestly.

These gnolls think that with the protection of a shield, they can buy them some time to pass safely.

It's just that although the idea is good, the reality is very skinny.

Guarding the second floor, Ainius was able to easily pass over the three gnolls holding shields in front of him because of the height advantage brought by the building, and directly attacked the four guys who only had hand axes.

Less nonsense.

Ainius, who seized the opportunity, simply took the four maid girls under her command and fired a volley again.

The sharp crossbow bolts from the top down crashed headlong into the gnolls who did not gather together due to the terrain restrictions.

How to say it, the effect of this wave of attacks by the maid of the eyes seizing the opportunity is simply outstanding.

Except for the three gnolls with shields, none of the four gnolls with hand axes left behind were all shot and died.

Of course, the remaining three shield-wielding gnolls only lived a short time longer.

Jammel, who was on the other side of the passage, once again put on his best at the end of Ainius' ranged attack.

She grabbed a short spear in advance and threw it cleanly after a little adjustment.

The short spear that flew out pierced directly through the gnoll's thin wooden shield, and the sharp spearhead that pierced through the shield pierced directly into the gnoll's chest.

The jackal man on the far right fell directly on his back, and there was no suspense about his death.

As soon as Jamel struck the blow, he immediately bowed his head and bent down, covering the whole person under the protection of the shield. Jammel's use of this defensive-leaning stance certainly doesn't mean that the Jackals won't continue to be hit by long-range fire.

On the contrary, the reason why Jamel does this is precisely to ensure that his tall self does not block the shooting line of his companions behind him.

Ainius, who was on the second floor, had already attacked and were now rewinding the crossbow. Vasily's armed peasants had already thrown out all the wooden javelins they had prepared in advance.

Who else is capable of long-range attacks now?

The answer is very simple, Zhang Yi himself.

Zhang Yi, who was guarding the gate of the building, was in a position that was just a little higher than the others, so as long as Jamel in front of him lowered his figure, he had a shooting channel.

When the first wave of assault gnolls was wiped out, Zhang Yi began to wind his crossbow.

While he was getting ready to shoot, it was just as time for Jamel to bend down and switch to a defensive stance.

And Jamel killed the jackal on the far right with a javelin, exposing the gnolls standing in the middle.

Faced with such tacit admiration from Sister Yin, Zhang Yi naturally would not miss this opportunity.

Inhale, raise your hand, aim for detail, pull the trigger.

With a humming bowstring, the pointed crossbow bolt that shimmered with cold light left the string, and in the blink of an eye it stabbed into the neck of the gnoll man in the middle.

Zhang Yi, who succeeded in one shot, exhaled the turbid breath that he was holding back, and bent down to step on the ring at the top of the crossbow with his foot and began to wind it up, preparing for a second attack.

But things have come to this point, and there is no need for Zhang Yi's second attack.

While Zhang Yi took away the jackal in the middle with an arrow, Jammel, who was guarding the entrance of the passage, switched to an offensive posture again. The silver battle nun faces the only one left of the gnoll.

I didn't even use the charge skill, and I just raised the shield and met it. Jammel, who rushed to the jackal in small steps, solved her goal without much effort.

The left hand raised the shield and easily blocked, and the short sword of the jackal on the opposite side slashed from above. Then, under the cover of the shield, the short sword in his right hand stabbed directly very quickly.

The sword was piercing the gnoll's waist, and Jamel twisted the hilt of the sword, then drew his sword and kicked it over.

Coincidentally, perhaps due to height, Jamel kicked the kick directly into the key part of the gnoll.

was already heavily injured, and the vulnerable part was kicked extremely fiercely. The fate of this unlucky ghost sent a chill down the spine of the armed farmers who had stayed behind and witnessed the whole process.

Fortunately, Zhang Yi was concentrating on winding his crossbow and did not see Jamel so fierce. Otherwise, God knows if he will be able to muster up the courage to stand in front of this silver nun in the future.

Regardless of the slightly lucky Zhang Yi, after easily and neatly solving the last gnoll.

The comparison in terms of numbers between Zhang Yi's troops and the jackals' troops on the scene has undergone a fundamental change.

None of the armed farmers belonging to Zhang Yi were unharmed, not even injured.

However, the gnolls, who were originally in an offensive position, lost two waves of offensive power in one go, and now only the only four gnolls remained.

Although these four gnolls are all jackal brutes with large wooden hammers, what does the saying come about? A good tiger can't stand a pack of wolves.

What's more, although the combat effectiveness of the Gnoll Barbarian is so much higher than that of ordinary Gnoll, it is the same thing in front of Zhang Yi's armed farmers.

The quantitative balance was completely reversed, and Vasily took advantage of the situation to issue a new order:

"Soldiers march~! Kill these hairy guys~! ”

The high-spirited armed farmer responded with a neat roar, and then quickly and orderly cleared the reserved passageway.

Then, he made small strides towards the remaining four gnolls as he moved to regroup the queue.

In this way, the final battle of this offensive and defensive battle was fought between the four gnolls brutes who still maintained this offensive posture and the armed farmers who had formed two rows of queues.
