Ordered Bruce to take the Overseer and the reserve team to cover the wounded soldiers and civilians back to the four castles, and then block them layer by layer to carry out the reserve plan. ”

"Legion Commander, David was killed an hour ago. ”

“...... Let Marcus lead the team, be sure to hold out until eight o'clock tomorrow morning, take the military horn as a letter, and I will peel him off as soon as I breathe early. ”

"Commander, there are less than 1,000 people left in the rock, and all of them are wounded. ”

"Give him the elite group, I don't care how many people he has left, even if he dies, he has to resist me. ”

"Yes, Legion Commander. I'll carry you down, the city still needs your wisdom. The adjutant tried to persuade him.

But old Sean shook his head, his age-spotted hand gripping the saber at his waist tightly, and drew it, his flabby cheeks but bright eyes reflected in the bright blade.

"Tell those boys that I'm not going anywhere here, I'm watching them.

This is my Gokan City, anyone can walk, I can't go.

If these steppe wolf cubs want to enter the city, they have to step past me.

Let's go, go back to the Rock Castle. ”

"I'll stay here with you, and there are no deserters in the rock. The old lieutenant also drew his saber and said in a trembling tone, tears welling up in his eyes.

Old Sean's eyes widened, his pale face seemed to have regained the blood color of his youth, and his voice was exceptionally loud.

"No, it's my order.

I want you to pour fire oil in every room, and you will personally guard the door, and if it really doesn't work, I want you to promise me that you will destroy everything in the Rock Castle with your own hands.

I will never allow my castle to become a paradise for steppe wolf cubs, and even if the Rock Family is completely destroyed, I will never leave them a piece of paper or food.

Promise me, Eric, old friend, promise me!"

He clutched one of the old adjutant's arms, and there was a hint of absolute relief in his eyes, as well as a hint of pleading.

The old adjutant lowered his head, gave old Sean a hug, and resolutely turned around and walked out, disappearing into the noisy flow of people and the dense rain of arrows.

Old Sean wiped the corners of his eyes with his fingers, felt the wetness, and secretly laughed at himself, the older he is, the more fragile he becomes, it's really embarrassing.

He shouted out the window, "Joey, Joey, are you dead too?"

A strong man with half of his body covered in blood and more than two meters tall broke in and knelt on one knee with a clatter.

"Joey, Matthew can't do it, from now on, except for the people of the Rock and the Elite Group, you have full command.

There are no reserves, but I want you to hold the walls, and as long as the trumpet of retreat is not sounded, you cannot leave the walls. ”

The brawny man spewed out a puff of white vapor from under his mask, stood up and walked out, his heavy boots smashing into the floor, leaving a trail of blood-colored footprints.

Old Sean wiped the emblem on his helmet that symbolized the rock, put it on his head, and walked out of the headquarters.

He walked around the city walls with vigorous steps, and from time to time he cut down a steppe man, like an old lion king patrolling his territory.

He casually broke the neck of a steppe man and threw him out of the city, letting out a loud roar: "Rabbit cubs, I am watching you right here."

I'm here, all the time.

There is no way back, and if you die, your loved ones, lovers, and friends will lose their last protection.

So you're all going to have to give me a good life and kill all these steppe wolves.

The city of Gokan has never been captured, not before, not now, and never will be.

Take out all the strength you use on women, don't be like a soft-footed shrimp who has not eaten enough, and let these wolf cubs know why we Ward are the sons of the god of war. ”

The warriors on the city wall were stunned, and they really calmed down from the dazed panic just now, and in less than a moment, they pushed out the nearly 10,000 grassland people who had already crowded the city.

In the gap of the collapsed city wall, more than 400 knights rode beastly dragons, holding thick riding spears, and rushed along the stone road dozens of meters wide.

Along the way, he crushed thousands of steppe people who broke into the city, knocking them out with their mounts, and then trampling them into pulp.

The knights drove the steppe people out of the gap all the way, and then without stopping, they continued to rush forward, rampage through the dense ranks of the steppe people, killing countless people.

Then as the gap was filled again by the steppe people, it began to rush back again.

Until their speed was gradually squeezed slower and slower by the crowd, and finally stopped, surrounded by grassland people dozens of times their size.

The warrior on the mount threw away his clumsy cavalry spear, drew his broadsword and plate axe, and rushed to the left and right.

But the red-eyed steppe people were not to be outdone, and hit them with their mounts, hugged them with their arms, cut them with their knives, and bit them with their teeth.

When they came back again, the numbers were getting smaller and smaller.

"196, 197...198, 199, one more, one more. Marcus, who was guarding the inside of the gap, looked at the knights passing by him and muttered as he counted.

But until the steppe people filled the gap again, they still didn't let him count it.

With a sigh, he led more than five hundred warriors in thick armor and huge shields to huddle side by side, lined up in a full ten rows, raised his spear with one hand, and closed the door at the gap.

At this moment, the giant bird that was shot and wounded by Matthew was untied by the steppe people above, fell to the ground, and killed hundreds of steppe people.

The remaining three giant birds could barely carry the boulder and flew back to another section of the city wall from an ultra-low altitude of 300 meters, trying to replicate the previous miracle.

But unfortunately, before they could get closer, they were stabbed by a dozen crossbows and javelins, and the giant bird rolled to the ground with the boulder, like the scene of the disaster, and the steppe people were killed and injured countless times.

The prairie people's scheme is bankrupt, and this Dulong bird, which lives in the swampy area, is stupid, stupid, and a little timid.

Although they are as large as a giant dragon, they have a terrifying appearance in the sky, and a few golden eagles that are much smaller than them can make them scared and pee, and they are not very fast.

In addition to being stupid, the only strength is obedience, and you can work for a day if you have enough to eat.

The use of this giant bird for warfare was groundbreaking, and this time only eight of them were domesticated and all of them were used here.

It's not that I don't want to use it on the eastern line of defense, where the multi-layered three-dimensional defensive walls are smashed down for a stretch of which is of no avail.

Trying to hit such a small target at the city wall at a height of a thousand meters is not at all what these air cavalry are good at, they are warriors, not professional aviation.

Although only one of them was won in the end, the major results achieved were of great strategic value, and they were excited and happy.

The inhabitants of the city heard the loud noise,

The sound of fighting on the walls rang all night, until a white light appeared on the horizon, and the sound gradually fell silent.

Then a louder shout rang out, followed by the sound of rolling hooves, drawing closer and closer into the city.

Marcus didn't make it to eight o'clock, and Joey didn't have a chance to hear the horn of retreat.

The grassland people who couldn't hold back finally dispatched the elite, a group of nearly 50,000 Ah Xun, including 15,000 elite Ah Xun in iron armor.

The fierce offensive and defensive battle lasted for more than two hours, and the corpses of 12,000 elite Ah Xun, more than 30,000 Ah Xun and more than 200,000 grassland people filled every gap inside and outside the city wall.

The Rock Division was completely annihilated, and fought until the last man was firmly blocked on the gap, without taking a step back.

The elite regiment almost wiped out the Ah Xun regiment, and its own battle losses were as high as ninety and a half, and in the end, less than fifty people were scattered into the city, and four of the five fourth-order warriors died heroically, and one fell to the city after being seriously injured and disappeared.

The Marquis of the Empire, the lord of Gaokan City and the leader of the Rock Legion, waved his sword with his old body, and after all his guards were killed, he killed a hundred people, and the corpses of the steppe people were piled up into a hill around him.

In the end, surrounded by thousands of arrows, he resolutely refused the persuasion of the steppe people to surrender, let out an unwilling roar, and died of oil.

On the ruined walls, he wore long hair mixed with blood, his eyes wide with rage, and he held his sword in both hands.

Even if he died, his majestic body still stood straight.

The hundreds of remnants of the hastily defeated army and more than 1,000 improvised civilians retreated to the camp for the wounded, relying on the rudimentary defenses there to resist stubbornly, while protecting the hundreds of lightly and seriously wounded and the priests and nurses who had not had time to evacuate.

After paying a huge price, the western wall of Gaokan City, one of the three major military cities in the southeast of the Wardsman Empire, fell.

Countless steppe cavalry cheered and rushed into the city, stepping on the land that their ancestors had dreamed of stepping on, looking at the rough and rich city, the eyes of more than a million steppe people were bloody.

They left less than 100,000 men to pin down the wounded barracks in the corner, and the rest covered the small half of the city like locusts.

After a night of evacuation, except for a few Gaokan people who refused to leave their homes, the other 600,000 residents of Gaokan City and its surroundings gathered in the four major castles and temples.

More than eighty percent of them are women, the elderly, and children.

The remaining 2,000 warriors, led by Bruce, fortified the streets layer by layer, blocking step by step, delaying the steppe attack.

This number of people was of no significance to the huge city of Gaokan, so they had torn down all the houses facing the street beforehand, especially the hundred-meter-wide main street.

Time is too tight and there isn't much they can do.

Bruce, who was standing in the shadows, looked at the enemies that were gradually appearing in the distance, and shouted, "Shoot!"

Two thousand scattered wooden arrows swept through the sky above the city and fell into the dense ranks of the steppe people, as if a small splash of water had disappeared.

After three consecutive rounds, looking at the pioneer who had rushed to 200 meters away, he helplessly shouted: "Retreat." ”

The warriors retreated east down the alley, and Milady and Chris, who were left behind, knocked down three thick logs, causing a chain reaction that caused two three-story buildings to collapse, smashing hundreds of steppe people who rushed to the front below, and blocking Bruce's escape path.

And the warriors, who were familiar with every alley in the city, stopped and harassed, and wiped out 20,000 grassland people in a scattered manner, and finally converged in the largest shopping mall in the city.
