Baozi sincerely thanks: book friend Ajie rewarded 588 starting coins, Yalu 123 voted for 1 monthly ticket;
White rain slipped down the black sky and dripped on the ancient and ruined walls of Bernkara,
White splashes of water splashed on the hard stone and splashed in all directions,
Like a large expanse of crystal clear flowers, blooming on the city wall covered with green vines,
The cyan suspension bridge was washed in the rain like an old watercolor,
A group of dark shadows slowly walked towards the moat in the heavy rain,
"Stop, whoever!"
The shouts of the guards came from the head of the city, and then the brazier at the gate of the city was lit by a city gate guard with a tired look, and in the firelight, the black shadow in front of him did not seem to stop, until it came to the suspension bridge that had been hoisted before stopping.
"We are the light cavalry of Driss City! On the way back, we encountered heavy rain, and we hope to be able to take shelter in the city"
When a tall black figure lifted his hood to reveal a young face, he raised his head and responded in a rounded southern accent of Ryerdian, and only then did the defenders on the city wall see that behind him was a group of cavalry shrouded in waterproof cloaks,
The tall and unusual horses were dressed in light chain mail, and under the light of the torches, the metal plates on the cavalry chain mail shone red, but unfortunately these knights wore blue horse armor on their faces, and the rain flowed down their cloaks on the ground, and the sound of ticking gave people a cold feeling,
A flash of electric light, shining on the face of the light cavalry, could not see the appearance clearly, the only thing that could be seen clearly was the cold gaze emanating from under the face, allowing the pouring raindrops to hit the armor on the body, splitting and flashing a white splash, and in the wordless dead silence, only the "popping" sound of the rain dropping on the ground was heard
"You are the hussars of Driss?
The defenders on the walls looked at it casually and pursed their lips with some disdain. Because it was too dark, he didn't notice the flash of joy in the eyes of these horsemen.
The so-called Driss light cavalry, everyone knows what is going on, the bullshit light cavalry, is simply a group of robbers who plunder caravans. Like their notorious masters, they were knightly devoid of glory. It was a group of robbers who robbed houses, because they took refuge in the bandit leader of Ruida, because there were more than a thousand people who were organized into a cavalry squadron, specializing in some despicable things of robbing caravans
Hearing a familiar southern accent coming from below, the guard officer didn't think much of it. It is not uncommon for these guys to knock on the door in the middle of the night, and for the Ruida army, which is short of supplies, the plundering of caravans has long become a necessary means for it to maintain.
But these poor fellows didn't wait for their prey, but they ran into the sudden heavy rain. That's why I'm so wolf, if it is rumored tomorrow that I am close to these robbers tonight, it will be a very shameful thing.
"Let them in!"
His position in the direction of the pendant. With a listless wave of his hand, he ordered the people over there to pull up the drawbridge, "gurgle" and pull the iron lock of the drawbridge, and slowly hoisted it, making an ugly metal friction sound in front of the black-armored cavalry,
A few minutes later, the heavy hooves of the cavalry slowly stepped onto the drawbridge. The queue was slow, but a dozen cavalrymen walked for seven or eight minutes. There was a burst of laughter from the tower, clearly mocking the cavalry for being too timid. This section of the suspension bridge has been specially reinforced, so that it will never break even if it is pressed several times the weight
"Pop" A silver lightning flashed through the sky, drawing a curved trace,
There is a faint sound of thunder vibration in the sound of raindrops, just when the thunder god rolls overhead, a light cavalry who stayed in front of the sling rope raised a sharp arc-shaped long sword in the lightning, and the crisp sound of metal breaking sounded in the rainy night, and the suspension bridge iron cable was broken from the middle, and the "snap" hung at one end of the suspension bridge, slamming on the bridge deck like a broken tail
"What's going on?" the dozen or so defenders on the city wall were completely stupid when they looked at the broken sling, and their first image was. These guys in Driss are crazy, these guys who grab things every day, today they even use their own slings to vent their dissatisfaction,
"You pigs, pigs, that's a sling, not a strap-on in a wagon" A soldier who got up in the middle of the night to pee, and when he heard his captain's dissatisfied scolding, he felt that he was also making a fuss, spat on the battlements, and raised his hand to walk towards the passage of the city wall,...,
Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed in front of his eyes, and then there was a metal impact sound from the city gate below, and the guards inadvertently glanced at the city gate, and his whole body was cold, and the hand holding his pants unconsciously let go, and his pants fell to the ground,
I saw that under the light of the torches at the city gate, the cavalry in iron armor emerged from the darkness not far away like a black ghost, and the bright light that flickered in front of his eyes just now was the white reflection on the cavalry armor when the lightning flashed in the sky
At the city gate, the black pressed human heads were like a swarm of ants, and these ironclad cavalrymen held a long knife in their hands, silently but murderously from the city gate.
The black armor on the cavalry was very dazzling in the light of the torches, and in the eyes of the defenders, it was like a demon killed in the dark
The hoarse shouts of "enemy attack" resounded through the city in an instant,
"All the troops are attacking!"
In the dark jungle in the distance, Varisian excitedly raised the command knife in his hand at the same time, the bright chain mail on his body was glowing white in the rain, the rain flowed down his emaciated cheeks, he lay on the horse's back, his body bent into a bow, clinging to the undulating horse's back, and the horse accelerated as quickly as the wind
"Kill!" the shouts of thousands of light cavalry were accompanied by the sound of muffled thunder in the air, and Prais, who was waiting 10 miles away, looked at the castle burning in the distance, and turned around with a solemn face.
Behind him, the 15,000-strong army was already ready to go, and the rain hit the faces of these resolute-looking warriors, turning into a dense white splash, and the black oppressive figures carried a devastating momentum
The elite Cheng dù of the Falcon Dynasty army, so that Prais also had to admit that it has far surpassed Cheng dù in the heyday of Rui Erdian, every soldier here can be turned into a fearless warrior of death, they are equipped with the best weapons, have the best commanders, they are the most powerful army in this era,
At the beginning of the attack on Bernkara, it was when he marched towards the target Dries City, this was a gamble, since the Southern Noble Army set up an eye in the direction of Dris, then start from the middle and completely cut off the connection between this eye and the body, the location of Bernkara Castle is at this node,
Because of its proximity to the Amira Mountains, the traffic has always been poor, and if you want to enter the vast southern plains, you must pass through the location of Bernkara City, otherwise, you must walk hundreds of miles of mountain roads.
