Chapter 163: Veteran

"Woooooo

When the sound of the horn sounded in the bitter cold wind, the faces of the citizens of this medium-sized city were blank.

Although the news of the defeat of the coalition army has spread, no one expected that the orcs would come so quickly, and they would choose to pull out their own nail on the route of the march.

The huge war beast came out of the shadows, and the mountain-like dragonborn war turtle approached the city with seismic waves, and on the huge shell actually carried a gray-white war fortress, from which the sound of war drums and trumpets came out.

The giant war turtle has a quarter of the dragon's blood, and its huge body is no lower than the city wall, which is the most terrifying siege weapon of the orcs.

"Doomsday War Turtle! The Bear King is here. It's his Whitetail Bear Legion. ”

The dragon turtle is afraid that there are not many in the entire world, but in the northland, there is only the bear king's car, the "Doomsday War Tortoise", the black back, which is not only the bear king Lund's mount, but also his mobile fortress.

Behind him, the strange silence of the Beamon beasts could not be ignored, and one by one they came out of the shadows and turned into real nightmares.

From the very beginning, terrifying behemoths were dispatched, and I am afraid that the orcs are paying attention to it with a quick victory.

"Beamon!! Beamon Legion! It's over, it's all over, let's run away,"

It is clear that the siege dragon turtle is the first threat, but it is the seemingly docile Behemoth that brings the greatest fear.

They didn't look as muscular as the dragon tortoise, and they weren't even in the habit of roaring like wild beasts, and they let their claws more than three meters long drag them directly on the ground out of the ditch, and marched upright in silence. Like a soldier marching in a procession.

Ignore the giant hands that are so strong that they are deformed. Covered in thick hair, they look a lot like an upright gorilla. There are only two eyes under the thick fur that are emitting a fierce light, and just looking at their appearance, they are far less terrifying than the dragon turtle with water chestnut horns and fangs, on the contrary, they are a bit naΓ―ve, but when it comes to fame, I am afraid that no one will ignore these terrible big men.

Silence is only to accumulate strength when it erupts, and true war behemoths have no habit of roaring, they are only enjoying the flesh and blood on the giant claws. Will smile with satisfaction.

"The craziest war beast in this world, the first species in land warfare."

Although there are many unconvinced competitors in that land battle first, the craziest war beast definitely lives up to its name.

The mere appearance caused panic among the people in the city, and even the so-called legion only had three Beamon Behemoths, but it was enough to sweep through the Northlands.

"Bell!"

"Whew!"

The huge giant beast actually stepped on the back of the dragon turtle, stepped on it violently, and then guessed along the city wall with the reaction force, and climbed the city wall, and easily climbed the ape in the treetops.

The giant beast, which was not much shorter than the city walls, was as agile as an ape. The ferocious beast of war had thus crossed the fortified wall, but judging by the footprints that had been trampled on the wall. The solid three-tiered mixed earth wall was indistinguishable from the mud piles in the face of the great power of the Beamon Behemoth.

And when the huge beasts entered the city, they finally began to smile fiercely, and the strange teeth exposed under their distorted faces were as tall as a man, making everyone who saw them shudder.

Flowering in the middle, internal destruction, although simple, but indeed effective.

And this is also the white-tailed army's forte, they did not use the conventional refueling tactics, but directly forced to break through, in the face of this strong Beamon vanguard, when the gate was opened by the giant beast, after the orc army entered the city, the gap in individual strength would naturally cause crushing, and there were already more than ten cities along the way so confused.

When one of the golden silk Beamon began to open the city gate from the inside, the other two silver-haired giant beasts began to destroy, and the trembling humans could not come up with a strong hand to stop Beamon, maybe there was indeed a strong hand in the city, but in the face of the desperate situation of the army, I am afraid that they would also pretend not to be there.

The smiling orcs have seen the future, and like other cities, where the terrible war beasts reach, the humans scream and flee, and when the mighty orc army enters the city,

But this time, it's a little different, and there are still people who have no intention of leaving.

An old soldier stood at the gate, rusty chain mail still stained, rosacea red from the cold wind.

The veteran didn't frantically charge at the beast, nor did he try to stop the other party, but he just stayed where he was, in the chaos, but he still stared.

That's because his current position is exactly the way for Jinsi Beamon.

The huge beast seemed to realize that it had encountered a challenge, and the thunderous beast was blood-red and slashed at the veteran.

"Old drunkard, you are crazy! Run! ”

He was not a general of the city, but a veteran of the city's defense army.

"Old drunkard" Ike, well, that's his nickname, and it's synonymous with him, just because he always likes to go to the tavern for a few drinks after being laid off, and even when he is on duty at the sentry, he is bound to carry bad wine in his arms.

"Old drunkard, you are not afraid of getting drunk and dying in the gutter one day."

Every time someone makes such an excessive joke, the old drunkard always pats his stomach and opens his mouth full of old yellow teeth and laughs.

"Okay, as long as Old Buck's pine nut is full, I'll die in your gutter tomorrow."

At this time, as if not hearing the exclamation of his colleagues, the old drunkard Ike sniffled, his cloudy eyes still staring at his own wine jar.

"Phew, this wine is as bad as ever, how much water did that kid put in it. Or, just a little wine in the water. Hey, I don't have a conscience anymore, but old Buck is kind. ”

Taking a sip of the three copper coins and a large pot of water and wine, Ike squinted, as if he had returned to the past, when his brother and wife were still there. The pine nut at Buck's Bar was also hard to drink, but at least it was generous.

However, at that time, he was not called an old drunkard, and "Arrow of Kashgar" Ike was a well-known elite ranger, until he was transferred to the city defense force with a knee injury, he was a notoriously ruthless character.

"I always feel it. What has changed? ”

Although the weather is just as cold. The pay is as small as pitiful. The drinks in "Old Buck's Bar" are just as bad, but at that time, his little life was always good, maybe because the old bastards and old drunkards who had walked all the way with him were there.

"Grass, it's all those damn orcs! And useless aristocrats! It's all gone before the war starts, little Sindern, wait until I see your hanged lord father. Look how I complain to him, I must let him spank your ass. Just like before. Hey, when people get old, they always like to remember what they have and don't. ”

The veteran was thinking about how to sue his old superiors as he pulled out the rusty iron sword that had been neglected.

"Poof."

After a sip of wine, it was all sprayed, and the wet long sword finally brought out a trace of cold light, and the giant beast had arrived in front of him, but the old drunkard, who was shaken by the earthquake, slowly began to arrange his helmet.

"Old Sindeen has said that we soldiers are the face of his lord, and we should pay attention to our image when charging. That's right, I remember. At this time, you should still recite the charging slogan, what should you read? ”

The giant hand that can easily crush the bridge is in front of you. The veteran also stopped thinking, shouted the trumpet and began to swing his sword and charge, the sword that was wholeheartedly virtuous, the sword that gave up all his own swords, with a trace of arc light, faintly appeared sword qi, and it also reached the highest level in Ike's life.

"Smack!"

But the gap in absolute strength cannot be made up with fighting spirit, and the steel claws of the Behemoth fell, and all that remained in place was the lump of flesh and blood.

Or was frightened by the veteran's sudden behavior, or perhaps, the veteran's sword finally cut the skin of the giant beast, Jinsi Beamon slowed down, paused, glanced at the corpse of the veteran, and then continued to chase and kill the other deserters.

The old drunkard died. He died completely, he neither had the sudden divine power to kill the enemy, nor did he use his life to boost morale and finally turn the tide of the battle.

This is war, there is no protagonist, no miracles, only bloody law of the jungle.

It's just that others are dead, but the most reluctant charging slogan still echoes in the air, and is carried far away by the cold wind

"Arashi's will, never give in!" β€”β€”

"You're murdering! You are all accomplices of the orcs!! ”

It's still the old theater that serves as the venue, but this time, it's the angry Renee who is angry and yells at the coalition generals,

Since the news of the orc's attack again, the joint meeting of the military chiefs of various countries has been in session for a morning, but it has only progressed from passing the buck to starting to study how to strengthen the defense of Red Maple City, but there is still no intention of sending troops to rescue other cities that have been attacked.

"Ahem, Your Highness, you should remain calm and have the demeanor of a member of the royal family. You see, now that the enemy is strong and we are weak, temporary retreat is a strategic need, you see, it is correct for us to strengthen our defenses and hit our forces to prepare for a decisive battle. ”

"What about the cities and inhabitants around the orcs marching along the route, they are still waiting for our rescue. Are we just watching them die? ”

But no one responded to her proposal, on the contrary, some people made sarcastic remarks.

"What are you doing so excitedly about other countries' affairs, be careful of being told that you have ulterior motives."

"Hmph, I can't see the situation clearly, and it's no wonder that I have been marginalized. If it weren't for the absence of His Royal Highness Roland, I'm afraid he wouldn't have the authority to attend. ”

"Princess, it's enough to make a vase obediently, don't be blind in war. Rescue? We are now enough to fight a decisive battle."

The country is weak, and the people are young and have no reputation, so it is naturally easy to hit a wall, and the meeting has been held until now, even if it is the main battle faction, it is still focused on how to strengthen the defense of Red Maple City, and Renee, who advocates rescue, has been ignored more than once.

Her pretty face was flushed with anger, but she still had no choice, and in the end, she left in a negative mood.

"Marginalized? What's really going on lately? ”

In a sense, the man's random speculation was close, marginalized, which undoubtedly stepped on Renee's sore feet.

From a certain point in time, Roland consciously kept Renee away from important matters, which has caused a lot of speculation within Donglan.

If others deal with it like this, Renee will wonder if she has ulterior motives, and it seems that she has ambitions to seek power, but it is incomprehensible that Roland, who has no interest in power, will do so.

"Lately, it's been so easy."

Thinking of my junior brothers and sisters who are extremely busy in all aspects, but I am obviously idle, how can I not think about it.

"It seems that it was Sister Eliza who came to be like this, and what they talked about. If it's just bad words, Big Brother Roland is not so easy to change. Moreover, his attitude towards me has not changed, why did he isolate me from the outside. ”

Thinking about it, Renee vaguely thought of something, but it was difficult to confirm.

And the sudden darkening of the sky left her with no time to think about it, so she hurriedly found cover to hide.

Just a few seconds later, the sky that had been calm just now was also in chaos, and a large number of ornich threw tar incendiary bombs and retreated, while the fire brigade in the city was in a hurry.

At the same time, the empty horsemen in the city have already hit the road, and they can shoot as many as they can.

Although they can't completely get rid of each other, at least they can't be allowed to go back and forth to the battlefield so easily.

"Your Highness, the generals ask you to go back to discuss matters, the army of orcs is closing together, I'm afraid, they are about to bypass the barrier and attack the city directly." (To be continued......)
