Chapter 196: Cleus's Offensive and Defensive Battle
The small town of Klers in the eastern region, the temporary headquarters of the Scarlet Church.
In recent days, the entire eastern region has been slowly gathered by the already divided aristocratic army under the activity of the Gawain Knight and the Knights of Wang Yao, and has been suppressing the followers of the Scarlet God Cult these days.
Zelna, the rebel of the Scarlet Cult in the East, burned all the food, forcing Arthur and the others to retreat.
But just yesterday Zelner suddenly received Arthur's march with the main army in the direction of the small town of Kles, and knew that it was time to fight to the death.
The Bemi Sect Master of the Scarlet God Cult gave a death order, and he must try to reduce the living force led by Arthur as much as possible to delay time.
An evil sacrifice takes place in the depths of the small city of Cleus, and Zerna needs to harness the power of the gods to create a loyal aphar army against the menacing Knights of Wang Yao.
Zerna brutally murdered more than 3,000 women and children, using their blood to create a red pool of blood that exuded terrible screams and unjust spirits, and countless dead spirits hovered in mid-air around the pool.
Zelna selects 200 able-bodied males and kills them and throws them into a pool of blood.
The 72 priests chanted incantations, red markers were lit up, and the entire magic array was activated in an instant, exuding a strange aura. The vain dead hovering in mid-air were instantly sucked into the magic array, and the 200 blood-hungry blood demon soldiers ended their sacrifices before Arthur arrived.
Zellner looked from under his hood as he slowly crawled out of the pool of blood, a sneer on his lips.
"Count Arthur, witness the true power of my God's soldiers!"
................
Arthur sang the battle hymn that enveloped the army, and the soldiers and knights who were unleashed their infinite potential burst into the most brilliant light that enveloped the entire battlefield.
Throughout the march, there was no one to stop you.
Ronin had quietly left alone a few days ago, and even Gianna didn't know what he would do next, let alone what Ronin had in mind about Arthur. The last remaining archmage, she called for wind and rain throughout the battlefield and became the absolute highlight of the war.
She is beautiful, powerful, and a noble lady, who doesn't like it?
All the aristocratic young people are fascinated but can't get close to the slightest, because there is always an Earl Arthur in front of him, Gianna usually doesn't go out much, and when he goes out, he also follows Arthur, there is such a person in front of him, no one feels uncomfortable, but there is no way to make him the main general.
The line is moving forward, and there is a strong point, and all the strategies are not as fast as the siege.
Victory is not terrible, what is terrible is how to win so easily, Arthur's chant became the decisive factor, and this is the first time that Arthur showed his unique talent in front of this group of nobles.
It is the commander who decides the victory or defeat of the battlefield, and the commander of the battle song is even more rare, as we all know, the only one who can chant the chant is the princess Andrea, but today Arthur has revealed his chant ability, the two are fundamentally different but equally powerful and sighing.
The sky was like a golden light, Arthur stood on the hillside against the wind, and below were countless impacting soldiers, and the blood-colored army opposite was instantly torn apart by the knights.
On the earth, rain called blood was sprinkled, and blood was splashed three feet on people, burning with red light.
Arthur stood on his horse, his right hand waved suddenly, Wang Yao instantly accelerated and slanted into the central hinterland of the enemy's army, from which it was split into two and attacked the two ends of the array, and the 500-man Wang Yao Knights became the strongest spear in the battle, extremely sharp and unstoppable.
The morale of the coalition army reached its peak immediately, and the blood surged, and the long sword in his hand gnawed away at the remaining Scarlet Legion.
The people of the Scarlet God Sect on the other side were already crazy, but at this time, when they saw the even more crazy and bloody coalition army, their morale instantly dropped to a low point, and there was no possibility of a rise.
The blood-colored light stirred everywhere, and countless people went berserk before they died, rushing towards the Wang Yao Knights.
Arthur's chant covered the body of the knights of Wang Yao, and the white horse under him was also covered under the chant, and the riding spear in his hand was faintly shining, let you be a flood beast, a high-level demonic beast who dares to crash head-on into the knight's riding spear.
I saw that countless blood-colored believers wrapped in red shadows on the battlefield were instantly knocked away, flying out of a hundred meters and falling to the ground, their hearts had already been burst from the inside of their bodies by the powerful impact pressure.
Gao Wen took Wang Yao to impact the last protective circle, and the sun's brilliance covered him, and the scenery was infinite for a while.
Arthur got off his horse, sat cross-legged on the mountainside, calmly looked at the victory below, and his heart burned a trace of the pleasure of strategizing to win a thousand miles, and also found a trace of the waste sleep and forgetting to eat when he played the Three Kingdoms.
There was not one in ten of the enemy's troops, and although many of them were wounded, very few died under the cover of Arthur's chant.
The crowd cheered, but Arthur looked calm, and looked up at the small town of Cleus in the distance, which was the purpose of the trip.
Siege warfare has been the most troublesome thing since ancient times, this is still its own city, and it cannot be destroyed on a large scale, and the enemy is roughly estimated to have 56,000 people, and he only brought a coalition army of more than 10,000 people and Wang Yao's Knights.
After the knight dismounts, the attack power and deterrence will be sharply reduced, and the siege knight must also dismount.
Arthur glanced at Gianna beside him, although Arthur himself didn't want to trouble this woman too much, but now everyone is a person on a rope, and there is something to discuss with her.
"How many people can you take with your teleportation magic?"
Gianna frowned slightly, not understanding why Arthur was asking her at this time, but she answered truthfully.
"About 20 people or so. ”
20 people?, Arthur looked into the distance and clicked his mouth.
The frontal army has been advancing, and it is better to take advantage of the high morale of the army to advance on a large scale.
Arthur ordered the Knights of Wang Yao to take a break for a while, and the rest of the finishing work would be handed over to the nobles' army.
But after all, the Knights of Wang Yao have suppressed a lot of evil fire these days, and it is cool to kill at this time, so that Arthur shouted to smash the Yellow Dragon when he called back.
The army had advanced to the plain, which was only 10 miles away from the small city of Kleus, and if they were lucky, they might have really taken it down today, and the ladders for the siege were ready, and it was just about to be kicked by Arthur to give the order to siege the city.
But Arthur to be honest didn't want to be stunned and just attack the city, not to mention how much the battle damage of the siege battle would be higher, just say that there are less than 56,000 people in the enemy's city, and it would be hellish if it took more than 10,000 people to attack the city garrisoned by tens of thousands of people.
Arthur glanced at the dense crowd of people in the distant city and summed it up.
"The enemy is outnumbered, it is better to make some shady tricks, choose 18 people to follow me to the small town of Klers. ”
Gawain stopped Arthur's words, what kind of madness is this, if you don't bring a soldier, you have to make your own strange moves, isn't it okay to find a disease?
