Chapter 225: Death Passage
Little Grandet was dumbfounded, the Fifth Brigade, who was gloating just now, was dumbfounded, they wanted to resist, but the bright blades in the hands of the guards made them speechless, they didn't have Downton's shili, they were completely lambs to the slaughter in front of the soldiers.
Ten minutes was a torment for the Fifth Brigade, and one by one they looked like prisoners about to be taken to the gallows, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
"When the time comes, let the militiamen line up and prepare to charge!"
Roquel took out his pocket watch, glanced at it, looked at the position of the sun, and gave the order to attack.
The militiamen of the fifth brigade were armed and were driven by the soldiers to the mountain road.
Three melodious horns sounded, representing the beginning of the attack, and the soldiers did not delay for a second, under the leadership of the centurion, forcing the militia to advance up the mountain.
Little Grandet could no longer care less about hostile Downton, and clenched his spear tightly in the crowd, his face full of fear.
The militiamen were bustling and walking very slowly, and a few unlucky ghosts stumbled and fell out of the mountain road during the pushing, rolled down directly, and fell seriously injured.
The medic was about to be dispatched, but was stopped by Rockel.
"Leave them alone. Rokel's voice was cold, "If you can't reach the straight line of the mountain road after five minutes, you will kill them for delaying the military plane!"
There was no movement on the cottage, but I knew that it was because the distance was too far and the mountain road was too winding to attack, and it would be the beginning of the big war when everyone stepped on a straight line in Zuihou.
There was no fighting, and under the pressure of death, the militiamen were already sweating.
Little Grande regretted dying at this time, and he knew that he wouldn't provoke Downton, although he didn't want to admit it, but he grew to the point where he couldn't provoke him.
"Shield-bearer. Build a defense, step by step!"
A bearded hundred-man commander was in command, he was Chinese New Year's Eve five years old, had been fighting for half his life, and had a lot of experience.
The militiamen with shields were cautious and barely moved.
"The Overseer team stepped forward!"
The bearded man has seen too many of this. If you don't let them see some blood, you won't obey.
The militia behind was in a hurry, pushing and cursing hard, and the shield bearers had no choice but to continue to move forward.
The bandits still did not attack, and everyone understood that they were not afraid, but waiting for the enemy to enter the best range of attack.
"Stop moving forward and hold your defense!"
After advancing twenty meters again. The bearded man suddenly ordered, and the shield-bearer, although he did not know what was happening, was overjoyed, as long as he did not advance.
Under the intensive protection of twenty shield guards, the three accompanying magicians ascended to the straight area of the mountain path and began to prepare for magic.
"A bunch of fools, although Lao Tzu needs cannon fodder, he will not let you die in vain. Roquell spat out. If it weren't for the scumbag of the mages sent to accompany the army, the attack limit would only be eighty meters. He can make the fight easier.
"I see!"
Downton understood that Rocker was going to use the magician to bring down the cottage, and if he could do it, then the casualties could be kept to a very small value.
"The Nine Empires have been researching the use of the Magic Corps, striving to maximize their potential. Pre-war bombing like this is the most basic tactic. Homer took the opportunity to give Downton Science, "It seems that I need to prepare some military books for you." ”
I have to say that Rokel still has some skills, in order to prevent the magician from being discovered by the enemy. He even made them dress up in normal costumes to cover their magic robes and stay behind their shields.
The first wave of magical attacks was successfully cast, and more than thirty apple-sized fireballs whistled over the fence and into the cottage.
Rukia shook his head when he saw it, the highest of the three mages was only the fifth order of the soul, even if he chose the most powerful fireball technique, his attack power was still weak.
"Rocker wants to set a fire to the cottage and force those bandits out, but unfortunately the mage's execution is too poor. Homer sighed.
The first wave of attacks was unsuccessful, and after revealing his identity, the enemy would never give the mage more chances.
Sure enough, the burly ogre appeared on the wall and began to throw stones and spears, and the gate of the fortress was opened, and the bandits knocked down the wagon piled with large stones at the doorway, and then cut the baffle.
Boom! Boom!
Large rocks with a radius of up to one meter rolled down with an astonishing sound.
The militia on the mountain road was suddenly confused, and some people tried to escape, but as soon as they turned around, the rolling stones had already rushed down.
Rumble!
Limbs flew sideways, blood splattered, and screams instantly filled the hills.
The trail was so short, and the slope was so steep, almost seventy degrees, that there was no time for the militia to dodge.
Downton couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
The rolling stones rolled down almost non-stop, some of them drifting, but more of them flocked to the militiamen.
The bandits were so cunning that they deliberately built the mountain road lower than the slopes on both sides, so as to ensure that the rolling stones would not roll out.
The militia was like being run over by a steamroller, and on the mountain road, a layer of meat sauce was left.
Twenty shield guards stood at the corners of the mountain pass, blocking the slings and spears and protecting the magician.
After the second wave of magic attacks, the chanting speed of the three waste wood mages was significantly slower, there was no way, there were heart-rending screams all over the mountains, and the vision was full of red stumps and broken arms, they were not scared to pee, and it was already good that they could still chant the spell in a trembling voice.
"You're still not ruthless enough, look at the faces of those hundred-man heads!" Homer reminded.
"He is a professional soldier who is accustomed to killing. Downton found most of the centurions to be very calm, "I think it has something to do with them staying in the back of the safe." ”
"Stupid, that's not what I said. "Homer hates iron and steel," I mean, they don't feel guilty at all about pushing others down the road to death for the sake of tactical goals, this kind of ruthlessness, you should learn it. ”
Downton was silent.
"Look!" shouted Hu Tao, tugging at Downton's finger and pointing at little Grandet.
The son of the richest man was lucky, relying on the strength of the demon to squeeze behind the crowd and avoid the first three waves of rolling stones, but in the fourth wave, the people in front of him were almost dead, and he actually pretended to stumble and deliberately fell down the hill.
"This guy is quite cunning!" Watching Little Grande roll down the hillside for more than a few hundred meters, Downton pouted, ordinary people may be dead, but for magicians, at most, it is some broken injuries.
In less than three minutes, six waves of rolling stones crushed the fifth brigade to only a dozen or so, and Rockel had to order the withdrawal of troops.
"Are you magicians?"
"Something is wrong, I obviously saw the smoke, but it just didn't burn, could it be that there are magicians in the cottage?" a mage retorted, shirking the responsibility first.
"Fart, where are the bandits going to find the magician?" the bearded man cursed.
"It could also be a tribal shaman, don't forget the big goblin tribe that sneaked up on us, Tyson could hire one. ”
Even among the goblins, there will be some lucky ones who are favored by the ancestors, who can open their wisdom and comprehend magical sorcery.
"The tactics remain the same, on the second echelon!"
Rockel was ready to try again, and three minutes later, the remaining third of the militia retreated.
"No, the fire has been extinguished, and there must be a shaman on the other side. ”
Although the mage couldn't see it, he felt a violent fluctuation of magic energy coming from the cottage, which was a phenomenon of spell casting.
"On the third echelon, the mage team, this time the main attack on the cottage wall and the doorway, Musel, charge with your men. ”
Rokel changed his tactics and decided to attack.
Because there was no need to attack the inside of the cottage, the mages could drag back more than ten meters, and they stood on the winding mountain road and stormed the wall with fireballs.
The rolling stones and spear throwing continued, but the distance was too far, and with the protection of the shield guards, the mage was safe.
"Tyson doesn't have a shaman, right, otherwise Weishenme wouldn't attack?" Hu Tao wondered.
"Definitely, it's better to wait and attack the soldiers than to waste mana. Homer watched the gate be shattered by fireballs until it collapsed, and knew that the most brutal siege battle was about to begin.
Mussell was the best at attacking, so he was entrusted with the task by Rokel, and without waiting for the commander's order, he immediately roared and let the militia advance.
This time, the echelon rushed to fifty meters, and the rolling stones and sassalwood were smashed, but due to the suppressive blow of the magician, the ogre could not attack with all his strength, and the number of rolling stones was much less.
Looking at the hillside where people kept falling and blood stained red, Hu Tao lowered his voice, "Big brother, are we really going up?"
"Of course, what a man says counts!" Downton laughed, he had already figured out what to do, he wanted to die, well, fill in your lives!
Those hostile glances just now made Downton determined to destroy this crusading army of more than 2,000 people.
The fourth echelon attacked very fiercely, but it still stopped ten meters in front of the house, and the shaman still didn't make a move, which made everyone's hearts heavy and full of apprehension.
"The Sixth Brigade prepares!"
Rocker looked at Downton, "You're not going to refuse, are you?"
"No!"
Downton walked down the mountain trail.
"You deserve it, see how you die this time!" Little Grandet held on to his broken arm and ran to see Downton's bad luck.
"By the way, let him charge together, a magician pretends to be injured, it's too much to say. ”
Downton pointed to little Grande, "This is my Zuihou's request." ”
"You're on!" Rockel frowned.
"No, I'm hurt, you can't do that!" Little Grandet found himself doing another stupid thing, howled, turned and ran, but within a few steps he was kicked over by the beard.
"My father is Grande, the richest man in Morningmist Town, I give money, don't let me go into battle again. Little Grandet's head was pinned to the ground, and he was utterly frightened and wept.
"He's hurt. Rocker thought that he could extort a sum of money, so he gave up persecuting little Grande, "Downton, go!" (to be continued......
