Chapter 233: The Offensive Begins
Inside the Redbeard camp: heralds come and go, auxiliaries on their horses trampling on the mud, and law enforcement teams shouting menacingly with blood-stained swords. Everyone was in a hurry, the news from the Valley of the Dead was not promising, and the advance of the front line was difficult.
"Is the White Rock side attacking?" Sisis stood in front of the map in the center of the tent, anxiously staring at the entrance and exit of a valley, "What do those northern barbarians want to do, they don't want to do it at this time?"
"Calm down, my boys, they should be more eager than we are!" A bald man in the tent with his eyes closed and his face kind, "White Rock Town has been besieged by undead skeletons for almost three weeks, and they won't miss this opportunity!"
"That's what the Prophet said," Redbeard gently lowered the white porcelain cup in his hand, "Siss, you're still too young to hold your breath." With the Prophet here, even if there are no northern barbarians in White Rock Town, we can still grind these skeleton shelves into powder. ”
The bald man shook his head, and he opened his eyes as clear as water, "Jehovah says that we should not despise any evil enemy, whether they may seem strong or weak. As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes as clear as water closed, but the moment he closed them, his black eyes suddenly burst into a burst of golden light, and the golden light disappeared into nothingness the moment his eyelids closed.
This golden light was never seen by the red-bearded man facing the north, and this golden light was not seen by Sisis, who was staring intently at the map.
In the town of White Stone, along the distance from the square to the stone bridge, huge pine oil torches crackled and burned, the north wind lost its track, and the dark clouds flashed to the side. Rows and rows of knights lined up neatly, the masks on their heads were lowered, no one spoke, and there was a deathly silence all around.
Suddenly, the red flag on the lookout swayed, and the knight standing at the front clamped his legs, and the mount under him began to trot. The fog above the stone bridge was still thick, and it didn't take long to step on the stone bridge, and the scene in front of them was no longer visible, but the knights did not slow down, but they whipped the horses under them hard, and the speed became faster and faster.
"Kill ......" The knight who rushed out of the stone bridge roared loudly, raised his weapon and charged into the wilderness. Beside him were his companions, who formed a small group and charged towards the army of undead skeletons.
The bridge outside Baishi Town is still surrounded by undead skeletons, these low-level bronze level undead skeletons were quickly turned into bone scum under the sprint of the knights, but the people who participated in the charge of the first echelon were all experienced warriors, and they all had the experience of fighting with the undead skeletons several times, and they didn't know how to rejoice when they knew this victory at this time, because this was just the beginning.
"Go on, don't stop, we'll rush all the way to Maple Fortress!"
"Rush, Rush, Don't Stop!"
Behind them, the second team of knights quickly rushed out, and the width of the stone bridge limited the number of people who could sprint, so no more than four knights could sprint out of the stone bridge at a time, otherwise it would affect each other's speed.
"Rush, charge, charge, rush!" a warrior roared, throwing away his helmet and revealing his braided hair, as he roared and picked up the huge machete in his hand, emptying a piece of undead skeleton with the speed of the knight's charge.
Morgaret remained quietly somewhere in the square, with Nicholas and William standing beside him. "Mogg, you say, can they rush out?"
The gray dwarf shook his head, "I don't know, but Redbeard has already begun to attack the Valley of the Dead, which means that the number of undead skeletons besieging the bridgehead of White Rock Town will be much reduced, so this time we have a chance, Red Beard can retreat if he fails, and if we fail, we will be trapped and killed in White Rock Town." These adventurers know this all too well!"
Mowglitte threw the white raven into the air, "Go ahead, bring back the battle situation outside the town!" Mateazzi rarely complained, flapping its white wings, and in one fell swoop it rose into the air, skirting the stone bridge and flying in the direction of Maple Fortress. The gray dwarf was in a trance, and the scene in front of him suddenly disappeared, revealing a black sky and a white earth. This is the gray dwarf switching to Materazzi's perspective.
All around was the sound of the wind whistling by, and on the white wilderness, two fortresses were embedded in the outside of White Rock Town like two round eyeballs. There are two protruding maple trees inside the Maple Keep, and Materazzi is targeting one of the treetops. Scouting over an army of undead skeletons is a big risk, and there is an army of undead bats in the Valley of the Dead, and although it's not sure if they've been dispatched, Materazzi is still careful. The big white bird hovered and stopped high in the treetops. Transmit the battle outside of White Rock to Morgridt's mind.
Morwritte searched carefully, the gray dwarves were looking for an army of skeleton knights, and between the two fortresses, there was always an army of skeleton knights. These armies of skeleton knights were the direct cause of the collapse of the fortress construction plan in White Stone. The undead skeletons wandering on the edge of the stone bridge are only bronze-level strength, these skeleton shelves, a casual sprint can sweep away, and then those tall skeletons holding shields and axes are only black iron-level strength, these are not difficult to deal with. However, those skeleton knights with mounts are almost all silver-level strength, armed with machetes or bone spears, and the squad of skeleton knights they form is agile and powerful. These are the nightmares of adventurers.
The warriors led by Morgaret were driven back to the stone bridge by these skeleton knights. The Grey Dwarves had estimated that there were about four phalanx of skeleton knights between Maple Fortress and Moonstone Fortress. That means there are almost a hundred silver-level skeleton knights.
These skeleton knights look exactly like normal Black Iron skeletons when they are not on their horses, and you can only be aware of their presence when they step on them. Often at this time, it is too late to flee the battlefield.
The passage to Maple Fortress was halfway cleared, and groups of adventurers bravely rushed out of the stone bridge. The number of people in the square gradually decreased. Gradually, those adventurers who did not have mounts began to form battle sequences one by one. People gathered in the square.
