Chapter Seventy-Seven: "Broken Heart" Begins
At that moment, an angry roar came from behind Randolph Tully, the voice was powerful and deafening, even Randolph Tully was frightened, and the power was probably comparable to Zhang Fei's roar in Nagasakapo.
A bloodied "long-horned demon" walked out of the crowd, and he walked in a hurry, although he took one step at a time, he exuded extraordinary momentum with every move he raised and threw his feet. Both the High Court soldiers and the Robert Army soldiers involuntarily took two steps back when they saw him. His body was a dark red color, there were still several bloody fragments of flesh hanging from the "horns" on his head, and in his hand he held a weapon that was also stained with blood and flesh and bones, because it was wrapped in viscous dark red blood, it was almost impossible to tell whether it was an axe or a hammer, his armor was splashed with red and white stains, and there were several broken spearheads, and the smell of blood was rushing all over his body.
The Horned Demon shook the weapon in his hand, and the flesh and bone residue wrapped around it fell from it, and some viscous dark red liquid dripped to the ground in filaments. Only then did this hideous weapon reveal its true face, a warhammer stained dark red with blood.
With the appearance of the "Longhorn Demon", a group of "Demon Legions" appeared behind him, all of them smelled bloody, and several "unacquainted" Gao Ting Army soldiers still wanted to attack them, but the "Demon Legion" picked up the dark red "Demon Weapon" in their hands and killed these few self-defeating Gao Court Army soldiers, and even the soldiers of the Robert Army were frightened and went straight back, and a few of them wanted to go up to fight the "Demons", but they found that the "Demon Army" simply ignored and did not attack them, They obediently stepped out of the way for them.
The "Longhorn Demon" is Robert, and the "Demon Army" is naturally the noble knights of the Stormlands. Obviously, Robert also found out the fact that "the hometown was stolen", but their war horses have been "released", and if they go back in a roundabout, I am afraid that the daylilies will be cold.
So the only option in front of Robert was to simply kill them, which is why they looked blood-red, like demons, some fresh blood, some dried dark red blood. Robert was so apparently "like an arrow" that he took the hammer in his hand and rushed into the Gotting's warband, even making good use of his helmet and using the two metal antlers to stab his enemies. Don't think that this thing on the helmet is just an ornament, you must know that the stag originally relied on the antlers to protect itself, although the metal antlers on this helmet are mainly decorative, but they are also effective in attacking.
Of course, he was not invincible, there were still a few High Court soldiers whose spears stabbed him, but he directly broke the spear shaft, and then continued to fight with the spearhead, thanks to his good armor, to be honest, this set of armor is basically not worn by ordinary people, if you want to use a data to measure, the strength requirement of this set of armor is at least 18, or even 20, and Han Xing's requirement is only 15 points of strength.
Robert is like a "humanoid tank", his own weight plus the weight of his armor and the metal antlers on his helmet seem to be a real "metal stag" rampaging through the High Court Army warband, seeing his companion's spear stabbing him but to no avail, the High Court Army soldiers immediately regarded him as a real devil, and fell back as soon as they saw him. After all, what people fear most is not an enemy stronger than themselves, but an enemy who cannot be understood. For example, ghosts, because they have no physical body, weapons can't hit them, walls and doors can't stop them, and people are naturally afraid. If you knew that ghosts could be hacked to death with knives, you might have chased ghosts with knives! I'm afraid that kind of horror movie will be very interesting!
With Robert opening the way, the knights behind basically only need to make up for the sword, and even then, it is only now that they have completely broken through the opposite formation and come to their own phalanx.
Robert didn't say a word, with the power of the "long-horned demon", he raised the war hammer in his hand, directly burst out, and rushed towards Randolph Tully, the distance between the two was only 10 meters, Randolph Tully was still immersed in the shock just now, slightly distracted, and when he came back to his senses, Robert had come to a distance of nearly 5 meters, he immediately raised the "broken heart" in his hand to block, the question is: can his strength block Robert's full sprint blow?
Randolph Tully didn't beat Han Xing without a price, he himself was also scarred and uncomfortable. After all, he and Han Xing's swordsmanship is only five or five open, and he has practiced swordsmanship for many years, and his proficiency and coherence stabilize Han Xing; But the actual combat experience is not as good as Han Xing, because Han Xing's swordsmanship is cut out of each other with Ali and others in the "Great Smash Bros." space, and Han Xing's understanding of armor piercing, vital attacks, and human skeletal texture is far beyond his reach.
The reason why he was able to suppress Han Xing was completely because he had a good weapon, Han Xing cut him, even if he was hit, he might not be able to leave a deep wound, and he cut Han Xing, almost breaking the armor with his sword, and Han Xing's sword and shield could hardly stop him, which caused Han Xing to be in an extremely unfavorable passive state from the beginning.
In the face of Robert's outburst, Randolph Tully immediately blocked with his sword, the problem is: Robert's warhammer is not a knight's sword, it is to break the defense, and it has a great suppressive effect on these "light and fluttering girls' weapons", and "Broken Heart" is a Valyrian steel sword, but it does not mean that it can be hard with heavy weapons. As a result, "Broken Heart" was hit by Robert's sledgehammer, and Randolph Tully couldn't withstand the powerful impact, and "Broken Heart" flew out of his hands.
Then Robert roared, and the sledgehammer slammed down on the left cheekbone of Randolph Tully's face, and his entire left cheekbone seemed to "earthquake", as the sledgehammer caved into it little by little, the broken teeth spurted out of his mouth with blood, and Han Xing could almost hear the crunch of his bones breaking.
Randolph Tully fell to the ground, his teeth falling out of his mouth, mixed with blood and falling to the ground, this is a veritable "fall all over the ground to find teeth", Robert pulled a sledgehammer from his face, and roared at the already "unrecognizable" Randolph Tully: "This is the end of your aid!" Randolph Tully, is there anything else you'd like to say? Randolph Tali wanted to say something, and he let out a howl of "ahh I don't know if he cries out in pain or wants to continue to speak to defend the legitimacy of the "Mad King", which will become an eternal mystery, and no one will know the answer.
Seeing that Randolph Tully couldn't speak at all, Robert, who wanted to satisfy his narcissistic complex, was disappointed, "I deliberately saved my strength, otherwise he would have to hammer the whole lower half of his face, but unfortunately, I still couldn't control the strength." Robert wiped the blood splashed on his face, decisively raised his sledgehammer, aimed at the back of Randolph Tully's head, and smashed Randolph Tully's head to pieces, the back of his head was completely dented, and even exposed a white backbone, this blow completely ended Randolph Tully's pain.
Robert stepped forward and picked up Han Xing with one hand and said, "Are you okay?" Well done, Hanschel! We won! Han Xing nodded, got up and moved twice, signaling that it was okay.
Then Robert was the first to shout, "Landau Tully, Earl of Hornland, has been slain by my own hands, Robert Baratheon, Duke of Storm's End!" It was only at this time that the soldiers of the Robert Army suddenly realized that the "Horned Demon" was actually Duke Robert.
"Not only is Duke Robert alive, but he has also killed the enemy commander Randolph Tully with his own hands!" Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers from the Robert army, and the morale of the Gao Ting army plummeted, but just now Robert also reported the news of "death", so they didn't believe it, just regarded it as a rumor.
That is, until Robert picks up the "Broken Heart" on the ground, cuts off Randolph Tully's unrecognizable head, rides his "Sun", and then rides and waves the head and "Broken Heart" in his hand, while loudly announcing Randolph Tully's death to the High Court.
Robert rode alone, but it seemed to be Zhao Zilong from Changban Slope, not to mention, it was really a bit like Zhao Zilong, after all, they all had a sword in their hands. As he passed, Gao Tingjun immediately fell apart and fled.
If Randolph Tully's unrecognizable head can't convince them, then Randolph Tully's never-ending saber "Broken Heart" never lies, right? So Robert just "circled" around the front, which had a devastating effect, and where he passed, Gao Tingjun immediately fell apart. Correspondingly, when the Robert army saw that the commander was safe and sound, he immediately burst into bursts of cheers.
The hour-long Battle of Cen Tree Beach ended in a victory for Robert's army, unlike the original Robert's defeat by Randolph Tully, but it did not have much impact on future developments. If anything, it's that Randolph Tully is dead, and Sam Will Tully is an orphan (and it's not necessarily a bad thing for him, he can go straight to being the Earl of Horning!). )。 Regardless, Robert's army was powerless to meet Mace Tyrelll's high court.
Despite the victory, it was a complete and disastrous victory, with the battlefield strewn with the corpses of dead soldiers and crows hovering in the sky, cheering for their feast.
According to the post-war count, the first echelon of the Robert army was 13,000 people, 7,000 people fled, 4,000 were killed and wounded, and only 2,000 survived. The second echelon was 8,000 people, more than 7,000 killed and more than 800 fled, and the third echelon was relatively intact, with only more than 1,000 killed and wounded, and 4,000 survived. More than half of the cavalry were killed, and less than 2,500 remained.
This also means that after this war, nearly half of the casualties of the Robert army remained, and there were only more than 8,500 fighting forces left, plus more than 2,000 light and serious wounded, among which the seriously wounded could even be regarded as basically killed, because there was no condition to provide them with treatment. Lightly wounded people are also at high risk of wound infection, resulting in amputation, and even if they do not die, they will not be able to go to war again. To confront Mace Tyrelll's court army with such a tired army would be a fool's dream, and they could not even afford to take the castle of Cen Tree Beach.
Robert could only decide to withdraw immediately, and before leaving, he threw the "broken heart" into Han Xing's arms and said: "I owe you a good sword, and now I happen to have one that can be returned to you!" ”
