Chapter 22: The Night of Blood and Fire (Part II)
Hand-to-hand combat, unfolding on a cold night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The soldiers of the Xiangri Empire, under the strict supervision of the warlords, poured in like a tide, and although the 8,000 troops lost 3,000, they still had enough numerical superiority. Because there were not enough ladders, only a few warriors were climbing and charging, and most of them could only helplessly use their weapons to cut down the stone barriers, they were so crazy and desperate, they were dying forward, and they were dying backwards.
On the wall, the archers kept shooting, a large number of stones and wood were thrown, the enemy fell in pieces, and only some higher-ranking warriors climbed the pass, after all, this temporary stone wall was not high, but what awaited them was a more terrible counterattack.
Brian and Lillian are like two killing gods, each guarding one side, while the other members of the outlaw team form a small shield formation, shuttling back and forth to make up for the gap in defense.
The wounded Peng Peng also joined the battle, it stood next to Brian, who was only wearing half armor, and from time to time it transformed into a metal shield to block the cold arrows that suddenly shot, and the viscount used his scorching greatsword to slash left and right, he didn't know how many people he had killed, and now he was covered in blood, like a bloody man. He saw Lillian not far away, almost the same.
The corpses under the stone wall form a mountain, slowly forming a slope, the enemy can use the corpses to climb the stone wall, and the warriors on both sides are strangled together, but this thin defense line just can't break through.
The soldiers of the Imperial Army couldn't figure out what kind of army they were facing? Everyone had agile footwork, strange tricks, and they were inexplicably killed in battle even though they were of a higher rank. The most terrible thing is the will of the defenders, they are simply not human, even if they are badly wounded, even if they only have their last breath, they can continue to fight, they even use their teeth, everyone becomes a terrible devil as if they have drunk some powerful potion.
The soldiers of the Xiangri Empire were frightened, the more they fought, the more frightened they became, the remaining more than 3,000 people, not only could not advance, but were forced to retreat by the defenders, the junction line of the battle, moved from the stone wall to the canyon, more than 900 people under Brian's command, actually pushed the enemy back dozens of meters, and the high morale made them launch a countercharge.
Rossetti rushed to the front, holding a giant hammer in both hands, and knocked a few people away when he picked it up, he was like a bloodthirsty madman, and even grabbed one of the enemy's warriors, bitten his throat with his teeth, and then let out a long roar that shook the sky, no one was not afraid, people were dodging, hoping to avoid this reckless man, but in fact, Rossetti was only level three, and even the enemy of level four did not dare to move forward when he saw him, as if he was glared at by his murderous eyes, and the blood all over his body was frozen.
"Hold on to me, don't retreat!" Legion Commander Bell and Deputy Legion Commander Henrietta personally entered the battle with high-ranking personal soldiers, and they casually killed several retreating warriors, temporarily stabilizing the trend of rout.
Brian saw two high-ranking generals, they had a purple and red fighting spirit on their bodies, sixth-level warriors, this is the most powerful opponent! He and Lilian glanced at each other and charged towards the opposite side.
Bell and Henrietta also rushed over, and the warriors on both sides seemed to have the same tacit understanding, and they consciously gave way to a passage for the strong to have a final collision with the strong.
Only Rossetti was red-eyed, he still didn't know how to avoid it, and when he saw Bell coming, he smashed it, but the hammer was rebounded by a powerful force, hitting his own head, and suddenly his brain burst out, and he fell to the ground with a poof.
Brian was furious, and the red fighting spirit **** rose, holding the rune sword, and slashed at Bell.
Bell didn't care, he saw that the color of his opponent's fighting spirit was one level worse than his own, and he felt that compared to his own strength, it was simply far from his own, and decided to teach the comer a fatal lesson, so that he could understand the price of shaking the tree by the mayfly. Bell chose the same vertical split, and used his fighting spirit to go head-to-head with Brian.
Brian temporarily changed his moves, swung his big sword diagonally, and the critical attack ability given to him by the god of war Marr was suddenly all added to the burning heart.
The two swords intersected, and there was a loud bang on the ground, and the huge impact was centered on it, swinging in all directions, and hundreds of people nearby were unsteady on their feet, all of them fell and vomited blood, Brian and Bell also took seven or eight steps back, and blood overflowed from their mouths.
It was Bale's turn to be surprised, he didn't expect the opponent to be so strong, although it was level five, but the effect of the attack seemed to be more powerful than his own, and after a confrontation, it was a little unbearable.
Brian's mutated retina had already sensed that Bell's body was churning with qi and blood, and there was a state of disorder, and he would not give the opponent time to adjust, and then attacked again, using his super recovery power, the viscount wanted to consume this sixth-level powerhouse.
Bale had to grit his teeth and take the move, this time he was not ready to fight hard, but hoped to win through the move, of course, he was wrong again.
When Bell saw the six runes on Brian's sword shining, his heart was darkened, and he was shocked to the air, and at the same time, he thought in disbelief - that was the six-rune greatsword?
Seeing that the situation was not right, Bell's own soldiers raised their arms and shot out their crossbow sleeve arrows, which were their hidden killing weapons, and Bell had already had them, but he was too big to have a chance to release them. Five short metal arrows flying rapidly, the cold light flashed towards Brian, at this time Peng Peng, who had been wrapped around the Viscount's waist in a soft rope state, made a rapid change, and turned his body into a small shield, blocking the deadly attack, those poisonous arrows, shot into Peng Peng's body, except for causing it a certain amount of damage, there was no big problem, metal is not afraid of poison.
Henrietta is also level six, but when he faced Lilian, he felt that he was not as good as level four, I don't know why, in front of this woman, his fighting spirit and strength could not be exerted, watching the opposite side constantly change his moves and misplace, attacking himself from an incredible position, his heart was empty, and every time he made a move, he was so easily flashed.
"Beware, he's got a Hidden Arrow!" Brian reminded loudly, killing several of his own soldiers.
Henrietta's Hidden Arrow didn't play any role, hitting Lilian's Yanliu black gold armor, a few sparks appeared, but it couldn't penetrate, he raised his arm at the same time, he found that his arm, unexpectedly left the body, Henrietta roared, hugged his arm and shouted: "Siege, save me!"
Hundreds of warriors surrounded them, Lilian's demonic stone copper thin sword emitted electric light, instantly turning the dozens of people in the front into charcoal, the main general was dead, the enemy was unmatched, the rest of the more than two thousand warriors collapsed, and there was no longer a battle team to stop them, these people began to flee lifelessly, and in an instant the battlefield was only left with pieces of corpses and scattered weapons.
Brian's eyes darkened, and he wanted to sit down, but he held back his breath, stood up, raised his sword, and let out a roar that resounded through the heavens and the earth, and then all the warriors roared with him, and between blood and fire, he declared their hard-won victory.
