252 Fierce Blood Battle (I)
"White Jungle Walker Samurai! That's amazing! They're three times taller than us! God...... "A fire-breathing dragon...... And Makula, who was holding a knife as big as a door panel......"
These two captains of a thousand only remembered to talk about the strength of these Night Elf warriors over and over again, and even forgot that the other party had prophets and sacrifices. After being strongly stimulated by the fire dragon, all the wolf knights now had the terrifying fire dragon left in their minds. This battle can't be fought! The old nobleman of Raquak reluctantly made such a judgment.
It wouldn't be terrible if there was such a strong strength in this territory. After all, there are nearly 10,000 warriors in the orc power family mercenary group, as well as more than forty prophets, two of whom are also the great prophets of the orc alliance kingdom, and the incomparably powerful minotaurs!
The old leader of the Raquak nobility has this self-confidence, and even if the strength of this territory is doubled, it can be taken. But the troops whose faith is destroyed are unable to fight, and even the invincible Dragon Knight and the Imperial Bat Knight, who is comparable to the Dragon Knight, were injured in a battle, how can this battle be fought? A soldier without faith will never be allowed to enter the battlefield. The old nobleman of Raquak was not like his adventurous son, he didn't want to take risks.
Although most people disagreed, especially the top prophet of the Minotaur and Orc Alliance Kingdoms, who were at the forefront of the army, even more loudly opposed the withdrawal. Even the impulsive Raquak force shouted that even if he rode a wolf, he would use his sword skills to teach these Night Elf Alliance people a lesson again, but the old nobleman still felt that he should withdraw.
At this time, the Shadowhunter brought great news to the arguing people. The Green Dragon's serious injuries were healed under his treatment.
With the mount, the courage of the dragon knight's force returned to the body overnight. Even with it, the confidence of the old nobleman of Raquak was restored to his high spirits.
The most important point is that the old nobleman of Raquak also knows that the two dragon mounts of the enemy air knight are also very badly injured.
Ahead is the sudden rise of the Flying Leaf Fortress. The army of the Mercenary Regiment of the Power Family from the Principality of Orc Power swept across the wasteland and finally came to a standstill in front of it.
As if a demonstration, the Light Knights of the Force Family Mercenary Regiment spread out from both wings, circling the castle left and right, like two long snakes twisting around the perimeter of the Flying Leaf Fortress. The frozen ground made a hard sound of gold and iron under the tumbling hooves of the horses. The power of more than a thousand wolf knights is enough to make anyone fearful.
These light knights are the deserters who witnessed the wolf-rushing battle yesterday. Last night, the incoherent captain of the Thousand was executed by the head of the regiment himself shortly after he returned. The mercenary group of the old nobles of Raquark who govern the orc power family has always been iron-blooded. He was also well aware of the terrible shaking of the morale of the military and the spread of rumors before the war. For this little trick of playing with psychological tactics, the old leader of the Raquak nobility immediately chose the most direct way to solve it.
When the head of the captain of the thousand men was hung on the flagpole, all the knights immediately became silent, not to mention yesterday's battle, and even the word marauder was not dared to be mentioned again. Because the old commander's personal guard had cut off more than forty heads in an hour of their camp.
The orders of the old mercenary commander were being given in an orderly manner, and the loud shouts of the heralds rang out in every corner.
The heavy shieldmen were at the forefront of the battle line. Dense weapons pointed diagonally at the Flying Leaf Fortress from above the tall battle shield. The axe warriors behind the heavy shieldmen were half-sided, one next to the other, without the slightest gap. Even if one of the fighters is killed by a stray arrow, he will definitely not fall.
The two dozen or so remaining bipedal wyverns also stood on the special cart to rest before the battle. The old head of the Racquak Regiment was dressed in a well-made bright silver armor, riding an extremely handsome giant wolf king and standing at the forefront of the shield array.
The old noble leader had golden wavy hair draped over his shoulders, and a metal-reinforced magic mark on the right shoulder of his armor. The giant wolf king's cold eyes and sharp teeth showed his extraordinary, while the passionate eyes of the noble head were like two flames.
Ahead lay the vast plains and bread groves in front of the castle, and yesterday's battle to slaughter the marauders was not far ahead. The blood stains under the towering giant trees tens of meters high have frozen into dry ice. The stones and dead grass on the plain below the castle were also covered with crystal ice, and a gorgeous and cold light bloomed everywhere.
The castle is 100 meters high, and the angle around it is almost vertical, and there are many watchtowers in the bunker. Behind the city gate, there is a passage of steps more than ten wide to go up. The walls next to the passage were draped with ice edges. The old leader of the Raquak nobles saw that there were many wooden shields on the top of the steps, and there were several lonely figures standing, and on them were some axemen probing. Seeing such a scarce force on the other side. The old leader of the Raquak nobility had a smile on his face that only those who had the chance to win had it.
"Dear Mr. Raquark, please allow us minotaurs to set foot on this Flying Leaf City first and open the door to victory!" The officer captain of the Legion, the baron of the Orc Alliance Kingdom, Ka Niu, couldn't help but step forward and said. His voice was full of belligerence.
"Captain Ka Niu Meng, although their walled city is not closed, the staircase passage is the only entrance and exit of the castle, although it seems to be easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is actually full of loopholes. If I use the most powerful minotaurs in the first battle, then wouldn't I be too overly useful and think too highly of them? Please allow our Force Family Mercenary Group to put on a show for you first! The old captain of the Raquak nobles smiled and bowed apologetically to the officer captain.
Although the invitation to fight was refused, the captain of the officer Kaniu Meng was obviously very satisfied with the words of the old leader of the mercenary group. Being in the same trench with a dragon knight and being able to earn the title of "the most powerful warrior" obviously made the vain officer captain feel extremely useful.
If it weren't a last resort, the old head of the Raquak nobility would never send the Minotaurs. This army is the elite of the prince's lineage, and their status is very high in the prince's heart. It is said that this captain is one of the prince's three personal guards, and in case of loss, the captain of the cross-Lak will not be able to eat and walk around.
Soon, a whining sound resounded through the sky, and it was the horn of the attack. Behind the two wings of the tight mercenary phalanx were countless light infantry warriors. Each warrior hid behind a large shield and marched slowly.
The large siege equipment was also assembled by eight hundred warriors at the back of the ranks, and countless tall staircase carts were erected on the wasteland at once.
"Attack!" With the order of the old commander of the Racquark, the lightly armed infantry of the thousand-man squad scattered from the left and right sides. The orc infantry, armed with shields and maces, led by the commander, rounded the plain below the city with neat and majestic steps, and headed for the left and right flanks of Flying Leaf City. Two rumbling stepped tower carts followed behind them, pushed all the way by more than a hundred heavy soldiers with loud trumpets.
On the front of Flying Leaf City are several rushing cars with wheels. The sharp wooden stakes are pointed outward, like a movable fence. A thousand-man mace-foot soldier in front and a thousand-man axe-bearer in the back, followed behind the horse-repellent wagon, and entered the open space below the city. The axemen's eyes scanned the tall towering trees warily. It's a simple matter of this kind of towering giant tree to ambush that enemy.
A dozen catapults also pulled over. There were also three Intermediate Prophets and two Intermediate Shadowhunters guarding the catapult, followed by the Escort Infantry, who followed the catapult slowly.
The old commander of the Raquak was very satisfied with his battle layout, and the old commander of the nobles of the Raquak did not plan to attack head-on at all, the loss would be too great. The passage of the stairs was full of shields and various spears and broadswords. If you choose to attack strongly, the main attacker is limited to the terrain, and you can only put in a maximum of one hundred-man team at a time. With the strength of a hundred-man team charging the opponent's battle formation one by one, or when the opponent has an advantage, this is called adding fuel tactics, and this kind of stupid combat mistake will not be committed by the old commander of the Raquak nobles.
The three-sided attack tactics of the mercenaries of the Power Family Mercenary Group also caught the eyes of the Flying Leaves. Zhang Yuan stood on a high place, observing the direction of movement of the mercenary soldiers of the Power Family Mercenary Group.
