70. A fire in the backyard
Life or death,
Success or failure,
That is, the time of the last breath carried by both sides!
After two hours of fierce fighting, the number of the forest people had been sharply reduced from the initial two hundred to double digits, and the Ustok defenders who had achieved this victory also paid a great price, and there was not a single legionnaire standing on the city walls, almost all of them were Stedia women and old men who had changed into their equipment.
If any of the two warring sides were to wear glasses to measure combat power, he would find that even if the defenders had a huge advantage in terrain, weather, etc., there was already a huge gap in the total combat power of the two sides.
After all, the women and the old men did not receive the same rigorous training as the legionnaires, and they were all stubbornly supported by their blood and blood, and their enemies were all murderous habitual bandits, and even more disciplined and religious fanaticism than ordinary robbers and robbers.
The results of the two touching are self-evident.
More and more people can climb the city, more and more people can hold on to the city for more time, and more and more corpses fall in this downpour.
It was only then that Ron joined the battle in what seemed doomed.
As the only and last force in the city to maintain his physical strength, Ron briefly reinvigorated the defensive line, but without the injection of more fresh blood, it was only a return to the light before his death.
"There's no one on the left!"
In the heat of battle, Karl suddenly found that their far left side had been lost, and the last woman in charge of the left side was stabbed in the chest by the sword of the foresters, and the mortally wounded legionnaires forcibly drove them down at the risk of their lives.
But then there was no way to do it!
However, the words he reminded his companions also reminded the people in front of him that since the left side had been lost, they had to drag this completely lifeless monster and prevent him from leaving, not to mention, the head of this monster, all of them were eyeing it and wanted to cut it off!
As soon as Carl's words fell, a forest citizen jumped directly and hugged Carl's torso like a macaque hugging a tree trunk, although the impact did not directly knock Carl to the ground, but it made him stagger two steps on the spot, almost unable to stand firmly.
The rest of the people followed at the same time, two of them holding his arms and two others holding his ankles!
There were hundreds of pounds of extra weight on the whole body out of thin air, and it was impossible to do it easily whether it was fighting or defending Carl, and the two heavily armored soldiers who were originally responsible for covering Carl's flank were also dragged into the hard battle and could not return to help!
As long as a few more people work together, Carl will definitely die on the spot!
More of the foresters began to occupy the city, but their next actions stunned Tariq and the others under the wooden walls, so much so that they almost wanted to rush in front of them and cut down a few more brainless military discipliners.
Instead of trying to break through the last of Ustock's defenses, the foresters gathered around Carl, eager to be the first to cut off his head!
It's a shame Carl didn't grow a few more heads so they could split evenly.
So obviously, the only one head left made the few foresters in front of him scramble, and although it did not reach the point of infighting, their rivalry finally gave Carl a respite.
Carrying the stabbing blow coming through the gaps in his armor from all directions, Karl lifted his legs and stomped on the two men who shook the legs apart.
Then he tried to stand firm, so that his lower plate was extremely firm, and at the same time, his arms began to exert force, and the knotted muscles more than doubled again!
I almost had to stretch my gauntlet open!
The incredible strength actually allowed Carl to break free from the shackles of the forest people - without weapons, he simply grabbed the lower limbs of the two people holding his arms with his backhand!
Think of them as weapons and armor!
Suddenly losing the burden of about three hundred catties on his body, Carl rushed all the way towards a man with a weapon aimed at him, seeing that this person had been frightened by himself like a torrent of steel, and almost turned around and wanted to jump again.
Karl was dissatisfied, glared angrily through the thick covered helmet, and actually frightened the other party to a halt!
"Don't hide!"
With a roar, the foresters who were frightened at first were actually scolded by Carl in place, and the two trembled, not knowing whether to fight or run! I only knew that I was stunned and raised the weapon in my hand, and then ......
Karl's dash continued unabated, like a burning boulder thrown by a giant trebuchet!
The collision was completed in an instant, and after a muffled sound that was absolutely inaudible in the noise of the battlefield, a scarlet sandwich was cooked by Carl, the forest people, and the wooden stakes on the wooden wall.
With the weapon in the man's hand piercing through the layer of "protection" on his chest, Karl has basically escaped the siege of the forest people by relying on the brute force of one person!
All the people who saw this scene that made people couldn't believe their eyes were so shocked that they forgot that they could still breathe!
Compared to this humanoid monster, who is the believer who is protected by the hand of the forest?!
"Thank you so much! I can't wait to send you to your gods! ”
Carl laughed loudly at the group of men beside him, and then grabbed the two weapons in his hands that he wanted to break free, riveted his strength, and aimed at the people around him one after the other.
To be reasonable, Carl felt that the two new biological weapons in his hands were far better than any heavy axe and broadsword! The latter is expensive to build, not to mention expensive, and needs to be maintained from time to time, and if you lose your weapon, you have to accept military punishment.
So much so that all the soldiers are more attentive to the weapons in their hands than to their wives.
And now the two biological weapons in Carl's hand have nothing wrong except that when they are used to block the knife, they will soar a little unspeakable bright red liquid, and the skeletal defense system built into the weapon will firmly jam the enemy's weapons layer by layer!
Needless to say, the lethality is needless to say, the weight of more than a hundred catties plus Carl's arms are rounded and smashed on his body, even if he is just scratched twice, he has to lie on the ground and rest for a lifetime.
And the most important point is that it can be replaced at any time, scrapped at any time, and used local materials at any time!
To say that there are no shortcomings, even if both arms can be regarded as a strong man, the physical strength cannot support it for too long.
Three minutes later, that is, the time when Carl's new biological weapon was almost scrapped, after several fierce battles, he finally squeezed out the last bit of strength in his body and collapsed from exhaustion!
But even as he sat cross-legged on the ground, Karl still picked up the sword that had fallen from the ground, swinging it with a sound that discouraged the enemies around him.
By their own force, the fourth offensive launched by the forest people was repulsed again, and they left a dozen corpses under the wooden wall just by looking at them, and now only about eighty people were left of the two hundred who came with great momentum at the beginning.
"Sure enough, you shouldn't expect too much from them."
Tariq's companions once again showed the disdain he had not concealed, having been driven down four times despite having a partial numerical advantage over the wooden walls, and it could only be said that the crowd of foresters was a rabble except for the frenzy in their minds and the anger at the slaughter of the messengers in the village of Ustok, which made them desperate for their lives.
"It's better that we didn't have much hope for them in the first place, I never expected a group of robbers to do anything out of the ordinary, but it went so well at the beginning that we had false expectations." Tariq closed his eyes and silently read the numbers in his mouth, "Anyway, this group of things that were meant to attract attention have lasted for more than two hours. ”
"Even if they're lost, they're supposed to be there, right?"
Before Tariq's words were finished, the rear of the village of Ustok turned out to be a sky-high fire for no reason!
