The appearance of the commander of the legion attracted the attention of all the soldiers, and Odeth was full of seriousness, and shouted some morale-boosting words to the soldiers, and then put on his helmet, took the longbow and quiver handed by his attendants, and climbed the city wall. Seeing the generals go into battle in person, the morale of the guards was high and they shouted one after another, breaking the original silent atmosphere. It wasn't until nearly a minute later that the excitement of yelling subsided and returned to normal.

I have long heard that the commander of this Odysse Legion likes to lead the charge in any battle for decades, and even the raid on the outpost a few days ago was the first to climb the city wall...... Casting an admiring look, Bernie couldn't help but feel annoyed by his lame fighting skills: if he had practiced his sword well, he might have reaped a success. At the very least, not to be a goddamn acquirer like I am now.

"This Lord Odyss...... How old are you?" Looking extremely surprised, Qilisa was trying to make the blue scarf around her neck tighter: "Her hair is half gray and half white. ”

"It's more than fifty, I don't know. is almost the age of being a grandfather, and he is still so brave. Without paying any attention to it, Bernie didn't notice anything unusual about his hair: "You've got such a good look." I'm not as good as you are. ”

"It's just a different focus, right? That's what you've said about me before. Stroking the shield, the girl's face seemed to flush with nervousness.

After all, my fault is that I always like to say things that seem to be very deep and philosophical, but I don't even understand it...... After pondering for a few seconds, he suddenly realized that the point of the problem was how could this girl remember everything she said casually so clearly?

However, the silence that grew deeper and deeper after the conversation ended between the two did not last long. The horn that had been waiting for a tense nerve suddenly sounded from afar, resounding through the sky. As if in response, the trumpeter at the top of the barracks sounded the battle horn, signaling the official start of battle.

Staring at the massive enemy forces slowly approaching the outpost, Odeus suppressed his anger and clenched the longbow in his hand. Looking at the rows of archers hiding behind the protrusions of the walls, he shouted loudly, "Archers, get ready to shoot!"

The atmosphere around him was once again extremely tense, and there was not the slightest sound of communication. All the soldiers looked at the enemy with a complicated expression. At that moment, a trumpet sounded in the distance, and Odys gritted his teeth and turned to look at the Eternalwinter Outpost in the distance: there were also black-pressed enemy troops standing in front of the gates.

Not bothering to think about why the enemy was marching, Odys forced himself to concentrate all his attention on the battlefield in front of him. Looking at the brave warriors around him who had followed him from Neverwinter, the Legion Commander felt a pang of sadness, irritation, and unspeakable guilt: many of these lads must have died in this battle. If they can't hold the walls, the casualties will be even higher than when they attacked here a few days ago.

The other general, Zadek, understood my temper quite well. knew that Lao Tzu would not surrender, so he didn't ask at all...... With a snort, Odys endured the cold: the war was urgent, and he didn't have time to prepare. The unbaked armor was flawlessly cold, and he wore only a thin cotton shirt underneath - he didn't want the thick clothes to affect his body's sensitivity. Although, that protects against the cold.

Estimating the range of a stiff bow and heavy wooden arrows that defied the wind, Odes calmed down and watched the slowly approaching enemy: as usual, their formation was in a tight assault formation. The archers are at the front, ready to retreat after a volley before continuing to cover the shot. After they retreated, the ladder men with large shields in one hand and wooden ladders in the other rushed to the city wall to set up ladders, and then had to deal with preventing the light infantry from climbing the walls to seize control.

"Archers! all of them are ready to wind up their arrows!" Keeping his breath in his breath, Odys ordered loudly as he saw that the enemy was about to enter our effective range. The moment the order was given, the sound of pulling the bowstring rang out one after another. Drawing a wooden arrow from the quiver behind him, the Legion Commander stretched his stiff bow and placed the arrow on the string. The slow, trembling footsteps of the massive infantry struck his heart like a drumbeat, burning Odyss's pent-up battle frenzy.

The abominable banner that symbolizes Icerock and their lords...... Looking at the ugly banner with the basket on the bottom and the central emblem of the white frost giant, Odysse snorted: How can the emblems of our Yongdong and Mace families look good?) (The white background, the background is a pale green color of the Divine Wood Forest, and the center is the ice blue dragon god.) ）

Just as the enemy's troops were already approaching the effective firing range, the charge horn suddenly sounded, and the entire army immediately began a frantic advance. Without the slightest hesitation, Odys immediately shouted angrily: "All obey the order - fire a volley of arrows!"

The moment the words landed, the sound of arrows being bounced off the bowstring rang out. Hundreds of sharp arrows rained down into the sky, knocking down several soldiers in the moment they fell, and dozens of people were reduced. Odysse poked his longbow out of cover and shot an archer, immediately screaming and ordering: "Aim at the front row of enemy troops, fire another volley!"

Another round of oppressive rain of arrows swarmed down again, and several rows of archers rushing forward were shot down and drowned in the crowd. After the end of this wave of suppressed salvos, the frequency of arrow rain sent out by the soldiers increased significantly, but it could no longer achieve the effective killing of the first two waves of targeted salvos. As soon as a soldier falls, his comrades will immediately step on his corpse to fill the vacant position, maintaining the formation of the entire army.

Seeing that the well-trained enemy army was already within 100 meters, Odys, who was slightly surprised and admired, released the arrow that had already been drawn, and watched it shoot through the neck of a person and quickly swept his gaze across the battlefield dotted with scattered bloodstains: the attrition efficiency of the light wheel, these two waves of arrow rain did not kill too many enemy troops. Its main function is to demoralize the enemy, but these Frost Children are also true snowmen, and they share our ancestors - the courage and strength of their bones, so that they can maintain their morale in the face of death, and not fear the rain of arrows.

But no matter how brave you are, it's useless, and you ice rock people will have no brains to rush and set up formations in one breath...... Pulling the bowstring, Odys shot through the head of another foe with precision, and his heart was furious: no matter what, this battle for the dignity of the Children of Ice could not be lost. They couldn't break through the iron gates, so they had to climb the walls or assault the back door. Either way, our defenders will have the advantage. As long as they lead a large army to defend the city walls and fight a war of attrition, these Ice Rock people will definitely retreat eventually.

Our condescending range advantage that we can't afford to fight back is about to disappear...... Releasing another arrow, Odes opened his eyes and carefully predicted the effective range of the enemy's bows: a few dozen more meters to charge, and their archers should be ready to go.

As expected, the enemy's archers retreated behind the phalanx of the charging infantry after a trumpet sounded. At that moment, a dense rain of arrows immediately arced and landed on the guards on the city wall.
