Chapter 11 Divine Soldiers Descend from Heaven
The size of the dwarves means that they can never be normal knights.
But who doesn't have a dream of being a knight in this other world?
The horse in front of him is beautiful and tall, and his bare legs are taller than the dwarves, and it is a waste to use them to pull goods.
However, the leader of the team this time never expected that this horse was not only first-class in size, but also able to speak.
"Shorty, it's not good to steal."
Unfortunately, he didn't understand what the horse was talking about, he just froze in place.
What's going on, why is there a beautiful tall woman looking down on herself condescendingly.
This was the last question the leader had that night, because the woman on the horse kicked him more than ten meters away, and then the leader, who had broken his ribs, was tightly tied up by a group of furious mountain people.
The woman raised the weapon in her hand and let out a strange long roar, and the nearby horses all became agitated, and dozens of horses that should have been tied up moved quickly and rushed towards the surrounding bandits.
Before the bandits, who had thought they had won a great victory, had no time to count the spoils, they found that all the horses that had been turning their backs to them had turned around, and fierce women in armor and weapons were sitting on them, rushing towards the crowd who had not yet figured out the situation.
In an instant, the continuous roar and the vibration of iron hooves on the ground resounded through the empty valley.
An unprecedented cavalry battle in the mountains began, unexpectedly.
The sudden attack of the horses shocked all the enemy soldiers who had relaxed their vigilance, they had never seen such a half-man, half-horse monster, and they did not expect that the other party was superior to their own in terms of strength and weapons.
The armor that used to give them fearlessness was completely vulnerable to the attack of the opponent's iron pipe-like weapon, and after the armor was pierced by an unknown object, many people did not react until the unbearable pain made them realize that death was coming.
Dozens of dazzling fires were fleeting, allowing the dwarves and bandits to briefly see the faces of the attackers, a group of centaur female warriors wearing black helmets, with contempt and excitement in their eyes, armed with one or two iron pipes of varying lengths, and clad in strange armor and pockets.
The tip of the iron pipe emitted a faint burst of fire, which was smaller than a torch and would be almost impossible to catch without looking closely or looking elsewhere.
However, after the sound sounded, dozens of dwarves and bandits had already fallen in a pool of blood.
Next, some of the centaurs began to draw their curved scimitars and charge at the flanks of the chaotic crowd, while others who did not impact fiddled with their iron tube weapons and expertly loaded them into them.
Then, another rain of bullets and bullets slanted into the bandits' ranks.
Many bandits who realized that something was wrong and took up their weapons to attack forward seemed to have slammed into an invisible wall, and they suddenly stopped, or fell directly to the ground.
Soon, a scream and wail filled the valley and startled the birds of the mountains.
With infinite human power and high attack count, Dwarves are no match for melee combat in the face of condescending attacks.
I don't know why my own weapon doesn't pose a threat to the black armor on the opponent's body at all, but it makes the opponent's iron hooves and war knives more and more energetic.
The hundreds of bandits in the middle ended up even worse, the people in front fell, and the people in the back didn't notice the sudden change in the situation, they just thought that they were shooting bows and arrows, and continued to move forward in order to snatch them.
Actually, they were wrong, but they really can't be blamed.
The heavy armor and iron helmets made by the dwarves, the leather armor shields, and the magic crests did not play a protective role under the sudden and strange impact.
The weakness of the human body after being hit, the severe pain of the flesh being pierced and torn, and the horror of the separation of limbs are all painful.
The weapons in the hands of the centaurs were indestructible and ubiquitous, and after a few rounds of blows, the elite in the front row fell like small trees that had been cut down by an axe.
What about the conductor? Those dancing commanders were all hit by centaur shooters who had long been responsible for attacking high-value targets
For the wounded or the dead.
The wounds of all those who were hit were not large, and they were not like knife wounds, or even arrow wounds, tearing the human body in the opening, leaving the terrible tail of the arrow outside.
Except for the terrifying head wound, all the wounds were inside the armor and leather armor, and the surface was almost intact except for the bleeding, but the muscles and internal organs inside were torn to shreds.
It was as if metal bugs had flown into the body and were eating at it.
The fierce dwarves and bandits let out a death howl and a dying staccato sound, but no companion knew how to save him, and many of them were wounded in their limbs, bleeding and rolling on the ground.
If this kind of wound is not treated in time on the battlefield, it will soon die of illness due to the festering of the wound, but they are destined to be untreated.
Compared to the invisible wounds, the swords and iron hooves of the men and horses are more ferocious, this group of monsters is superior to the bandits in terms of strength, protection, skills and morale, and the mere charge will disrupt the formation of the bandits, and they can no longer be organized.
Obviously, there are only a few dozen horses, but there is a great tendency to surround and exterminate hundreds of people!
The wings collapsed without accident, and it was only a matter of time before the frontal collapse was a matter of time, all the loot was about to become a thing of the past, and no effective orders could be conveyed to the ranks, and at such a time, even the most stupid people knew what to do.
After a panicked cry of "monsters", "witchcraft", and "curses", then there was the sound of "run away", which became louder and louder, and soon everything was out of order.
Whether it is a dwarf or a Terran bandit, their morale has completely collapsed in the face of the combat power above them.
As the morning light began to emerge on the silhouette of the mountain peak, and hundreds of corpses strewn across the ground and more wailing wounded people came into view, the bandits behind them were completely awake like sleepwalkers who had been splashed with ice water.
Late!
The formation, which was already scattered because it was busy making a fortune, was like a river ice cracking under the shooting and impact of men and horses, and it could no longer be combined.
Incomprehensible fear and utterly incapacitated command split the still superior ranks everywhere, and the headless flies of bandits all wanted to flee and smash the unknown people further behind.
Looking at the past, it was crowded on the left and right, and no one was not in a hurry, and there were not a few people who fell and were trampled on.
On the other hand, the army of the territory, led by a group of tall horses, the mountain people who had been suffering from bandits for a long time also armed, and took up arms to attack the remnants of the defeated generals.
Those caught in the net were equally overwhelmed by the militia of the same enemy, and everywhere there were dwarves who fell to the ground and bandits who were beaten.
It turned out that this group of fellows was not invincible, and the cavalry sent by the lord was not useless, and the jubilant militia became more and more courageous, and the men and horses who were chasing in front of them also fought with the momentum they had when they were rampaging through the Skawa steppe.
The armored dwarves had tried to stop the on-the-spot defense a few times, and they had few long weapons to stop the men's charge, but Jana and her sisters were battle-hardened steppe nightmares, and simple tactics couldn't stop them.
The cavalry spears assigned to the cavalry by the lord can be accurate at a distance, as well as lethal shotguns that attack at close range, and no matter what posture is put in the way from the opposite side, it is actually more useful than running for your life.
As for the bows and arrows they prepared, they didn't play a role in front of the composite armor on the centaurs, and they didn't even leave a trace when they hit them.
So, under repeated pursuits, the corpses of the bandits, who were like evil tigers in the mountains, were stacked on top of each other, covering the mountain roads, and the rest of the people ran in vain along the mountain roads with rising slopes, but how could two legs run more than four legs? :
The cavalry had never pursued in the mountains, and the uphill slope made them feel equally tired, but Jana relied on the strength of not admitting defeat, and led her sisters to chase frantically, and finally did not even have time to change the ammunition, so she chased and killed with two knives.
In the end, more than 400 bandits fell on the way to escape, and the rest either ventured into a ravine by the side of the road or ran fast into a dangerous road that was too close to the horse's hooves to climb, leaving Cana at a loss.
Four
The men and horses who had not fully galloped their hooves and had no fun fighting at all raised their guns and kept shooting at those who had fled in the desert, which were not very effective due to the obscuration of trees and rocks, but also completely frightened those who fled for their lives.
"You don't deserve to ride me!" Jana scolded in the language of a centaur, "Coward, waste, you have the ability to come out and continue to fight!"
But that's the end of their performance, there is a dangerous road that only people can climb, and above it is the dangerous fortress chosen by Iwasu, and if you want to climb head-on, you can only use the ladder to lower it, but this is not a task that can be completed by men and horses.
"Damn, we can't go up!" Hatefully, Cana kicked the rocks out of her feet and knocked down a bandit who got up to flee, "I wonder what happened to the Lord......
While the centaurs and militiamen were hunting and killing the fish that had slipped through the net on the mountain road, there was no reaction behind the first fortress on the mountain, neither shooting to stop the pursuit of the men and horses, nor answering the fleeing bandits, and the people inside seemed to be asleep, allowing the territorial army to shout and roar below.
Just as Cana and Shiv organized skeletons and militia to clean up the battlefield, a huge banner flew out from a cliff hundreds of meters high and dropped it like a rag on the bloody battlefield.
A golden light flickered on the mountain wall, and the dawn was eclipsed in front of this light.
Next, a territory's silver dragon flag was planted on the edge of the stone fortress, and the people below were stunned for a moment, and then thundered with joy.
"Wow! The Golden Eagle has never seen such a battle," Shiv said excitedly, patting Cana on the back, "Now, you don't look down on the lord's woman, do you?"
"This is a crazy woman, I've never seen a woman like this," Cana smacked her tongue, "how dare she."
"That's not it, she just flew in." Schiff sighed, "Such a person, there will be countless men on the grassland who are willing to bow down at her feet."
"Hmph, don't you think so?" Cana asked angrily, "Don't mess with the things of the demons, be careful that the lord castrates you."
"How dare I fight the idea of the Chosen One." Schiff shrunk his neck, "Actually, I'm still the best with you."
"Stop talking nonsense, climb up and have a look."
Jana kicked him lightly and ran away.
As Iwabeard's army burst into the camp, on the other side of the ridge, Ninia and a group of carefully selected brave mountain people were gathering momentum.
Since skeletons were useless in the battle plan, Ninia personally led a well-equipped death squad to take Iwasu's first line of defense from an unexpected position.
Iwasu never dreamed that he would send troops to attack the territory army, and the other party was also attacking him, so it was really a two-way rush.
Since the fortress on the mountain was very strong, it was extremely difficult to attack from the front, so the stronghold on the mountain road was attacked this time, and 50 of the 100 bandits who were in charge of guarding it also participated in the attack.
Even so, under normal circumstances, fifty people are in danger of defending, and it is still impossible to open it, so the bandit leader inside began to resent the boss for not giving him a chance to make a fortune, and could only watch the bandits lurking below easily break down the door and go in to make a fortune.
Soon he will know that the boss is not actually bad to him, but gives him a greater chance of survival.
The easy-to-defend mountain fortress overlooks the battlefield below, waiting for the victorious return of those below, but when everyone's attention is focused below, Ninia's surprise attack also creeps in.
Just as there was a commotion below, a slender figure leaped down from the other side of the mountain wall, grabbed the two harpys' ankles, and slid silently in the direction of the fortress.
As the figure moved through the air, a rope behind her stretched longer and longer, stretching from the mountain wall to the top of the fortress.
Several bandits who were carrying items heard the sound of wind overhead, and when they inadvertently looked up, a dazzling golden light came towards them, knocking them all to the ground.
In one hand, he held the pitch-black "Lightless."
Blade" Dilandal, untying the high-strength rope made of magic spider silk thread behind her back with one hand, Ninia and the bandits who rushed to the rescue started a fierce battle.
The power of the Chosen One, combined with the guidance of the Lightless Blade, allowed Ninia to hold out against hordes of bandits, even though she could only use one hand, and even found an opportunity to secure the rope to the fortress.
The warriors on the mountain wall were so encouraged to see the lord's female knight so brave and skillful, fighting hundreds of bandits alone, and they slid one by one on the simple pulley that Ninia had ventured to connect according to the movements they had trained for the past few days.
As the dawn dawned, the morning breeze was blowing, and the warriors grabbed the pulleys with both hands, volleyed through the impassable valley, stumbled into the fortress, and drew their weapons before they could get ready and go into battle.
This adventure will be something they will never forget.
