Chapter 115: Knight
Faun watched the fog drift under the walls of Spink City, a little confused, it stands to reason that there is usually no fog at night this season. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoEven if there is, it will be early in the morning. Just when Faun was wondering. There was a loud bang, a loud tremor, and the strong walls shook three times.
Faun sat down on the ground in horror, feeling a sense of horror sweep through his body for no apparent reason. Faun threw away the spear in his hand and ran quickly down the walls.
If there was a first-level wizard here at this time, he would definitely find that the entire area of the city wall was shrouded in a huge range of sorcery, the Fear Technique. This sorcery is capable of causing people who are not strong enough to panic for a certain period of time. Originally, it was a small auxiliary witchcraft, which was transformed by Kenan to disrupt the formation of the army, and it was tested today, and the effect was obvious.
At this time, the heather gate that was originally wrapped in iron sheet has been blown out of a large hole three or four meters wide, and it can be said that only the upper part of the entire gate is relatively intact, and the lower part has been a piece of broken wood dregs in the city. The fog continued to spread into the city, and soon half of the city was filled, and countless Nords divided into countless battle squads in the mist, advancing according to the set goal.
The military system of the Nords was simple, with only a combat group of three or five people. Kennan also added squads, squadrons, and brigades to the combat group as the basic unit to facilitate command.
Before the attack, Kennan divided the targets that Spink City needed to attack into areas and distributed them to the captains of each brigade, and then the team leaders continued to assign the tasks in their own areas to the squadrons below...... Kennan also meant to train the team and train junior officers. After all, a strong army needs a sufficient number of low-level officers to support it.
Within the range of the Fog of Trickery, the Nord's vision will not be affected, while enemies can only see objects within a meter or two of their eyes within the range of the Fog of Trickery. Under such circumstances, coupled with the influence of the large-scale fear technique, the defenders on the city walls were naturally defeated, and the swarming Nord army soon occupied the two city walls and continued to advance into the city. Even if there were occasional strong-willed soldiers who resisted, they were quickly swallowed up by the tide of Nords.
The wooden towers of arrows built in the streets were easily captured by the Nords, and the scattered defenders on them had long since fled due to the effects of the Fear Technique. A large number of Nord crossbowmen climbed the wooden arrow towers and began to suppress the fleeing defenders of the city.
Due to the fact that the Fog of Trickery has a strong effect on isolating sound, even if the shouts of killing within the fog are shocking, the place outside the fog is still quiet and abnormal, as if nothing happened. It wasn't until the fleeing soldiers retreated to the castle lord's mansion that they reported the news that the city gate had been attacked and had been lost to Spink's lord, Earl Fignam.
The originally prosperous and important city of Spink was not in the hands of a single earl, and there were originally more than two dozen barons and viscounts here, but before the kingdom's martial law was announced, the nobles who had heard the news early rolled up their salutes and fled the border city, hiding in the hinterland of the kingdom, and even the king continued to enjoy his life.
And Count Feignam was put on the side by the nobles of hostile strength, and inexplicably became the temporary lord of Spink City, and he naturally couldn't flee like those nobles with the heavy responsibility of defending the city. If he dares to flee without a fight, then what awaits him is a wanted from the kingdom.
Earl Feigenam, who received the news of the loss of the city gate, was frightened, and hurriedly got up from the two maids and gathered his knight guard. These knights were all cultivated by him since childhood, and they were extremely loyal to the family, and they were the trump cards of Count Feigenam, who would be reluctant to send them into battle if it were not a last resort.
But now Fignam can only gather these people, hoping that they can retake the city gates. Due to the influence of the fog of trickery, Feignam miscalculated the form, and he took the hand of the chief knight, "Novanda, you must take the city gate back." ”
The chief knight nodded, turned on his horse and led the knights to gallop towards the city gate.
Count Fignam watched the departing knight procession and prayed in his heart. If Count Feignam knew the real battle situation, then he would definitely flee immediately with his knights without looking back, and he would definitely not have any idea of retaking the city gates. It's a pity that there aren't so many ifs in the world. Count Fignam also lost his best chance of escaping.
These knights have been trained by Count Fignam since they were children and have been brainwashed by complicated work, and they are all diehards of Fignan, so their willpower is naturally not too bad. Although they were terrified when they entered the range of the Fog of Trickery, their strong willpower allowed them to continue their progress towards the city gates. Although they themselves could overcome the fear in their hearts, the horses they rode could not resist the effects of the fear technique, and they neighed and hesitated.
While the many knights continued to calm the horses, hundreds of Nords who were in charge of attacking the City Lord's Mansion ran into the knight squad blocked in the middle of the road. Squadron Leader Nord, who was depressed because the enemy had been cleared by the companions occupied by the front division, immediately became excited when he saw so many human knights, shouted a few times, and directly turned on the talent secret technique and rushed towards the knight team.
The Nord warriors in the back saw that their bosses were rushing forward, and they were naturally not far behind, and they all opened their talent secret techniques and rushed up. For a moment, all kinds of witchcraft flashed aura. A Nord who was gifted with the ability to breathe flames opened his mouth, and a thick flame erupted into many knights, and in an instant, several knights who could not dodge were burned into human torches. Screaming and falling off the horse. A Nord with a talent for the Flame Burst directly threw a Flame Burst fireball into the center of the knight team, and the Flame Burst Fireball exploded instantly, engulfing more than a dozen knights around him.
Originally, as the backbone of the nobles to maintain their rule, the knights naturally had good combat effectiveness, and they could be equal to the Nords one-on-one. Charging on the plains is also quite powerful. However, the narrow streets and frightened horses greatly limited the strength of the knights, and coupled with the suppression of panic and the surprise attack of the Nords, the entire group of knights was soon divided and surrounded by hundreds of Nords.
The leader of the Nord squadron nodded with satisfaction when he saw that the situation had been controlled, "Hurry up and end the battle, target the City Lord's Mansion." ”
