Chapter 358: Today's Showdown

Cecil didn't bother to inquire about the situation on the spot, he hurriedly put on his armor and sword, gathered his army, and listened to the soldier's explanation as he ran in the direction of the city wall.

It turned out that this evening Atum's army had gathered together again, and the army of less than two thousand men rushed to a place less than three hundred paces from the city wall and stopped.

Then the infantry raised their shields in front of them, and several cowhide drums were erected behind them, and there they began to beat the drums of war with great swagger.

This posture was exactly the same as the previous day, they had come once this morning when it was just dawn, and even the night before yesterday they had put up this position, but the soldiers defending the city were half killed, and not a single soldier closed his eyes in the whole Baria Pass that night.

However, it turns out that they have played this set more than ten times in so many days, so these people don't pay attention to it, they are still chatting, and some people even take them as if they are hilarious.

For example, when their army was marching, someone fell behind, and where someone accidentally fell, this became one of the few entertainment spices for these soldiers defending the city.

It's just that what they don't know is that the situation may be a little different this evening, and they will soon know what is different, although some people notice that something is wrong with the atmosphere, but it is equivalent to a few drops of water in a big river, and it will not play a role at all.

With a very discordant rapid drum beat, the rumbling war drums suddenly stopped.

Just when the soldiers of the city wall were dazed and confused, not knowing what was happening below, hundreds of archers armed with longbows suddenly rushed out from behind the enemy's military formation.

Three hundred paces away, within range of the longbow produced by the Iron Fang, and then a rain of arrows poured down from the terrified gaze of the soldiers defending the city, and these archers poured four waves of arrows on the walls.

The infantry under the city also bared their fangs, drew their weapons and rushed up with the siege ladder.

Most of the soldiers on the walls had died from the rain of arrows, and those who survived were still in a state of panic and bewilderment.

Their hearts are full of collapse, and they say that they will leave after a wave of posturing and harassment? Can there be less routines?

Before the garrison could react, Atum's soldiers had already stormed the walls and had a part of the area firmly in their hands.

Immediately afterward, the large army camp outside the city moved, and groups of heavily armed soldiers swarmed out from inside, like a torrent of steel frantically approaching the walls of the Barya Pass.

"Our worst fears are still happening. ”

Watching the battle on the city wall from afar, listening to the shouts of killing from there, Viscount Newt bowed his head with a bitter face and said that he now regretted very much that his momentary greed not only failed to bring benefits to the family, but even put the family into it.

"It's not your fault, Lord Viscount. ”

His henchman stepped forward to comfort him, drew his weapon, and at Cecil's command, he would rush to the ramparts with the men behind him.

"Tumi, I hurt you, you could have a better future with your ability. ”

Viscount Newt is still a nobleman with good psychological quality, he quickly put away his somewhat decadent and negative emotions, and just said to Tumi with some guilt.

"You saved all my secrets, and it's my duty to help you do these things. Tumi smiled freely, he was a man who should have died, and he was not afraid at all when he faced death again.

"If you can live, it's better to live, and you can't do what you want to do when you die. ”

Glancing at him deeply, Viscount Newt turned his gaze back to the distant wall, and said something confusing.

Tumi's pupils shrank, and he nodded lightly with an expressionless face, although Viscount Newt didn't see it.

Meanwhile, beyond the Baria Pass, Atum stared solemnly at the distant city wall, where the battle had slowly fallen into a stalemate after the initial crush.

"Your Highness's great cause, your lordship's plan, and the life and death of that traitor will be decided today. ”

Arnie looked at the sun that was gradually beginning to set, and it seemed that he was not worried about the failure of this siege, and behind him were the Black God Ballista and a group of members of the Black God army with fanatical faces.

"yes. ”

Atum didn't seem to be in high spirits, but he was actually a little apprehensive in his heart, because he chose the evening for this siege, just like the first tentative attack when he first arrived.

If his army had not captured the walls before it had completely darkened, they would have been a complete defeat in this battle.

And such a long time of preparation and paralyzing the enemy will be in vain, which means that there is no other way to break through the Barya Pass before the enemy's reinforcements arrive.

Even if they had breached the Baria Pass in this situation, it would have been impossible for the remaining soldiers to hold out until Jason's reinforcements arrived under the onslaught of 50,000 troops.

Atum's eyes tightened as he felt worried, and the situation he had been waiting for finally happened.

Because at this moment, the soldiers under the command of Atum on the city wall suddenly showed signs of rout, and even a steady stream of reinforcements could not stop the speed of this rout.

Cecil's supernatural powerhouse struck.

In this kind of army melee, strong men of this level generally do not participate in the battle, because they are too few in number and play a limited role in large battles.

What's more, in this kind of battle, the superlatively strong also have a great risk of falling, and even the great knights dare not participate in the battle without absolute certainty.

Cecil had been forced to the bottom by the terrible battle situation.

"Luckily, I was prepared. ”

Atum muttered to himself, his eyes glinting with excitement.

At this time, the battlefield of the city wall was indeed as ordinary as Atum guessed, and a group of more than twenty strong men wearing excellent armor suddenly joined the battle group, and rushed to the front without fear of death.

These people are athletic, their weapons exude a misty brilliance, and every time they move their bodies, they will take away one or two lives, and ordinary soldiers can't get close to them at all, which makes the garrison of Barya Pass who is struggling to support it suddenly feel less stressed.

"Kill all the enemies!"

"Get rid of them!"

......

When this group of soldiers saw that there were so many strong people on their side to open the way, their faces immediately turned red with excitement, and they rushed behind them while shouting slogans.

If you want to compare their excitement, the pressure on the besieging side is getting bigger and bigger.

Suddenly, a spear poked out from a corner, the tip of the spear flashing with a cold chill, and pierced his throat under the terrified gaze of an extraordinary powerhouse!
