Chapter Ninety-Four: Trolls

Everything in the living room is made of the best materials, but the style is relatively simple, showing a kind of understated gorgeousness, true aristocratic taste.

Clark sat in the elegant living room, and he admired the portrait of the glamorous princess on the wall of the living room, and his mood fluctuated. He came from a poor background, and his favorite thing was a noble woman, he had never visited the imperial concubine in the future, and he had no chance to observe it up close, but now this portrait like a real person made his heart beat slightly faster.

Looking at it, he felt that the necklace on the elegant snow neck of the imperial princess in the painting was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, he frowned and was just about to recall, when he heard a pleasant voice at the door: "Dear Cardinal Clark, how can I be lucky to have your visit." ”

Clarke's face returned to calm and kindness, and he stood up and smiled: "I have long wanted to visit His Royal Highness, but I am busy with academic affairs, so I can't do it. Now, the dangerous situation of the empire also threatens the safety of the church, and His Highness has a huge influence on the empire, so he wants to discuss it with His Highness. ”

Andina walked into the room and smiled, "Your Excellency, it's not something I should care about. Have a seat. ”

Clark didn't give up, he didn't sit down, but walked to the window, looked outside, and said: "Your Highness, you see, this picturesque Yanjing is so beautiful, but once it is not dealt with properly, Yanjing is likely to suffer from military disasters." I don't think Louis is inexperienced and the people I recommend can avoid all this from happening. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the carriage on the arched bridge outside the fort, and Louis's face was showing in the carriage.

It dawned on him that he had come in vain, and he looked at Louis with great jealousy.

Louis also saw Clark, he was startled, and quickly lowered the curtain of the car, thinking quickly in his heart.

Clark looked at Andina again, and seemed to think that she was full of spring. Since the imperial concubine has a lover, what can't happen?

He and Andina were in the room, and they usually didn't have a guard on their side for an appointment of this status.

Andina was saying, "Oh, Louie, that young man, I heard that it's pretty good, I think your Excellency is too worried. Clark grabbed his little hand.

She looked at Clark's slightly reddened eyes in shock, not understanding how dare she do this as a cardinal.

Clark felt that he had grasped this little hand, as if he had grasped a dream in his heart, his voice trembled a little, and he said boldly: "Dear Highness, I have admired you for a long time, and I hope to be your guest of the curtain, since you have a goal, then we have no conflict, my support for the nobles is only to expand my influence in the church." ”

Andina immediately shook off his hand and said, "Your Excellency, please show your respect, I can't believe that as a clergyman, you would say such a thing, I can ignore your rudeness, but I don't think we have anything to talk about." After she finished speaking, she clapped her little hand and said, "Send off!"

Clark was amazed that Andina treated him so dismissively, he had read a lot of information before coming, so Louie, if he hadn't recently acquired some territory, how useful would it be?

Andina's gaze reminded him of the way those nobles looked at him a long, long time ago, and the inferiority complex hidden in his heart flared up, and he said angrily: "Your Highness, I just said what was in my heart, in this case, Your Highness is good at doing it yourself." ”

The imperial princess, compared to the cardinal archbishop, may not be strong, but Andina is different, she is not afraid of this faint threat, she has something to rely on, if she will cooperate with the Holy Light Church, it will be called a ghost, she smiled and said: "Thank you for the reminder, please! I won't send it!"

Clark leaves angrily, and Andina, with no hope to talk about, becomes one of his worst enemies.

After Louis returned to his mansion, he hurried to the barracks for fear of an accident, handed over the military power, and prepared the army to leave.

The army began to assemble, and supplies continued to arrive, until the commanders of all walks of life knew him as the commander, and Louis breathed a sigh of relief, at this time it was impossible to change the commander, otherwise the emperor's prestige would be hit.

When the army was ready, it set off, and Louis looked at the army with no end in sight, and his heart began to be high-spirited, this is a full 400,000 regular army, 150,000 auxiliaries.

The slope of the small valley of Xiangye Mountain, Luo Fei breathed a sigh of relief, the defensive earthen wall was finally completed, and the protrusions on both sides of the pelvic-shaped ramp were mud floors, which had been hollowed out and turned into deep trenches.

The entire section of the ramp has been erected a five-meter-high earth wall mixed with gravel and earth, the earthen wall is ten meters wide, and the wall is piled with irregular boulders, which can be used as a cover, and can also be used as a falling stone at critical times, and the earth wall is buried with large trees dragged nearby, and the branches of these big trees have not been removed, and they are entangled with each other to increase the stability of the entire earthen wall.

Behind the earthen wall there is a well-built arrow tower, on which are placed ten priests, ten marksmen, and a holy magician, but because of the mountain, the arrow tower cannot see the distant hillside.

Luo Fei shouted, "Philip, go and explore the mountains to see if these damned trolls are ready to attack." ”

Philip cursed Luo Fei in his heart, and reluctantly climbed out of the earthen wall and walked towards the hillside, where the knights did not have wildebeests, and the wildebeest were all used for other purposes under Raphael's orders.

Luo Fei saw that he was going out, so he gave the order to the knight chief beside him to prepare for battle.

The chief knight listened and said, "My lord, there are a lot of soldiers missing, is it okay?"

Luo Fei sneered, "Is there a safe battle? What about your bravery? Or do you think that six hundred warriors will not be able to withstand the troll clan? Besides, the ramp is so wide, and it is the same if there are fewer people." ”

Even if St. Paul's personal guards were selected from loyal families, it was impossible to collect garbage, and the minimum requirement was a high-ranking fighter.

The strength of the chief of the guards is very strong, not to mention the combat skills, in terms of pure fighting level, he is a little more powerful than Luo Fei, a standard holy blood knight. The knight's eyes widened, and he said, "Yes, my lord, the trolls are just a bunch of beggars. He immediately went to arrange it.

As soon as the warriors here were ready, they saw Philip running from a distance in a panic, with blood on his shoulders, and he was shouting, "They're coming, they're coming!"

It's just that he didn't need to call at all, and he was followed by a large group of ugly gray giants in tattered armor.

There were about a hundred trolls chasing Philip to attack, and there were ten rows at once.

Trolls look similar to each other, three-meter-tall gray thick bodies, but the female surname has oversized bulging breasts, they are all bald, with thick noses, full of meat, copper-ringed earthy yellow eyes bulging and shining, and fangs and mouths are also open, spewing a foul breath.

They wore brown inferior leather armor, and in the charge, they held high large wooden clubs wrapped in iron sheets and shields tied into wooden rafts.

Luo Fei immediately shouted: "Three-stage shooting, shooting!" "The crossbow is a must-have for every warrior, but the quality is different, and the personal guards of St. Paul, of course, are the best alloy crossbows, not only have a long range, but are not afraid of rain.

Without hesitation, the warriors fired their crossbow arrows, and six hundred crossbow arrows flew in three waves, like a black cloud, covering the troll warriors in the distance.

Philip shouted, "No!" He turned to his fate, and used his sword to block the crossbow arrows that came from him, but there were no less than twenty arrows aimed at him, and he relied on his decent martial arts skills to block the arrows in his head and chest, and then screamed loudly, and was shot in the limbs by seven or eight and nailed to the ground.

As soon as the troll warriors saw Luo Fei's soldiers raise their crossbows, they roared wildly and activated their innate ability, Stone Skin Technique.

The earth elements gathered on the stone slope, and a faint yellow light appeared on the surface of their bodies, and they used the crude wooden shields to block the vital points, and continued to rush forward, but the thick gaps and inferior leather armor betrayed them, and dozens of trolls fell with arrows all over their bodies.

Stone skin is not a real body turned into stone, what kind of creature can still be born after turning into stone? It is just a thin layer of earth-based magic protection.

The rest of the trolls were still rushing forward with their arrows stuck in their bodies, and they waved the giant trees with iron sheets in their hands, as if this would give them courage.

Philip cursed, being stomped on by a huge foot, then another, and after being trampled three times by the troll's heavy body, Philip was completely silent with blood pouring out of his body.

This is the effect of Luo Fei secretly publicizing the glorious deeds of Philip's betrayal among the guards, although the nobles are hypocritical and despicable, and many of them do all kinds of evil, but this kind of betrayal is also intolerable.

In this way, Raphael easily let Luo Fei kill Philip with just one sentence.

The leader of the troll clan had just emerged from the top of the hill, and he was startled when he saw the earthen wall in the distance, and he immediately ordered his men to beat the leather drum to make the attacking trolls retreat.

The crossbow bolts could shoot two waves at this distance, but the trolls' retreat allowed them to shoot one more shot.

The trolls threw down a hundred corpses and gathered in the distance, and the troll leader observed them and shouted, "Little low wall, do you want to stop the revival of the troll clan?"

He gave the order, and a group of trolls went to cut down the tree.

Luo Fei looked at it and asked, "What do they want to do?

The chief of the guards is experienced, shrugged his shoulders, and said: "They just make big wooden rows, and then they will put the wooden rows on the wall, when the slope, our wall is not high, this is the reason why I just felt that there are too few soldiers, fortunately, what you said is right, this place is not wide." ”

Luo Fei muttered: "Damn Raphael, we have given all the crossbow arrows to the city, and we will have twenty of them each, so if we can't do it, we will retreat to the camp behind." ”
