Chapter 85
With a bang, the shield in Char's hand shattered into dozens of pieces in an instant, and the broken pieces of iron flew out, even cutting off the heads of several Byzantine soldiers on both sides!
Char fell from the sky and slammed on the ground, the muscles on his arms bloomed in several places, when Char jumped up, he spurted blood in his mouth, shook his head vigorously, and suddenly showed a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes, and pushed away Srayt, who was about to support him, grabbed a spear, jumped onto the high platform, and looked into the distance......
As if destined in the dark, he saw a small black figure at the back of the Odin array, and saw the figure standing there alone, and the Odin people around him kept a distance from him......
Char's eyes were red, and he took a few steps back, and then with a run-up, he roared and threw the spear out......
Hastings stood there, watching a gray shadow emerge from behind the camp gate, piercing the sky, and he stood there motionless......
With a bang, the spear fell more than ten steps away from Hasting, and the two Odin warriors raised their shields, but they were pierced in the roar, and the spears fell to the ground and exploded into more than ten pieces!
Hastings gently wiped away a drop of blood that had splashed on his face.
"The power is good...... Hmph, it's a little bit off. ”
There was a hint of heat in Hasting's soft eyes: "He's a good powerhouse." Strong, hahahaha......"
The face of this Odin Valkyrie was obviously smiling, but his eyes were getting colder and colder, just a trace of fanaticism in the coldness, but it made the guards around him feel a trace of fear in their hearts.
Hastings picked up another spear and took a breath, about to shuffle out again......
But before he looked up, he suddenly heard a few strange sounds......
The sound of several catapult springs, and several huge stones were bounced out and fell in the direction where Hastings was......
With a few bangs, the stones fell into the crowd, and suddenly there was a scream, and more than a dozen Odin people were smashed into pulp for the first time, and the bounce of the stones on the ground swept dozens of Odin people around......
Char stood in the camp, looking at the place where the stones fell in the distance, and he gasped: "Damn...... Do you think Lao Tzu is on the right level with you? Lao Tzu just gave the catapult a test of the landing point and distance......
※※※
The first wave of Odin's attack finally ended in an hour, and the corpses piled up behind the wall of the garrison had almost formed a slope in several places, and it is conceivable that the next attack of the Odin people did not even need to build a ladder in these places, as long as they stepped on the corpse, they could rush up the wall.
"We ...... I'm afraid it's hard to support a second attack. Slater smiled wryly.
In the first attack, the Odin threw down nearly a thousand corpses, and it seemed that they had finally repelled the Odin attack, but Char and Slater were both heavy in their hearts.
Because, the losses of their own side were not small, at least five hundred fighters died, and dozens of seriously injured had lost their combat strength and were carried to the back. The combat effectiveness was weak, and the strength that could fight in the garrison was only 2,000. Now almost a third of it has been removed at once!
More importantly, the first round of casualties and losses were all soldiers! Half of the rest were auxiliaries, transporters, craftsmen, grooms, coachmen, and even cooks who had just taken up arms......
Looking at Slater's wry smile, Char didn't speak, just lowered his head in contemplation.
At this moment, another trumpet sound was heard from the direction of the Odin.
Slater raised the corner of his eye: "It's their rallying cry! As soon as the horn stops, the queue is assembled...... Then, it's the second wave of attacks!"
Char gasped for a moment, his arms wrapped in a white cloth, but the pieces were also soaked red with blood. He grinned, endured the pain, inhaled the cool air, and a trace of absoluteness flashed in his eyes: "Maybe...... I have a way to buy a little bit of time. ”
He looked into the distance, and suddenly smiled: "Do you remember the rabbit general Ruhr?"
He stood up and put his hand on Slater's shoulder: "Anyway, it's good to delay for a moment now! Maybe the next moment...... And the generals came back. ”
He picked up a spear and walked slowly to the high platform......
A red light flashed in his eyes, and with a bang, the spear pierced the sky, roared out, and landed on the battlefield in the middle with a bang!
The roaring sound immediately attracted the attention of many Byzantine soldiers and Odinites behind the wall.
The spear pierced into the ground, breaking into several pieces, and a cloud of dust was raised in the roar!
A loud and majestic voice reverberated throughout the battlefield:
"Hasting!!Dare you fight me!!"
※※※
This loud challenge shocked the audience!!
In Byzantium, the soldiers on the walled wall turned their heads and looked at Char and Slater who were standing under the camp gate.
Slater's eyes widened, stared at Char in surprise, and pulled him: "You, you're crazy......"
Char shook off Slater's pull and waved his hand at him gently.
Slater bit his lip: "You're sending you to death! I know you want to buy time by inviting Hastings to fight alone, but that guy is Hasting! It's Odin Valkyrie! You can even say that you are the strongest man in Odin's army, you ...... This is a send-off!"
Char snorted, walked to the gate of the camp, and into the distance, raised his voice and shouted loudly:
"Hasting!!Dare you fight me fairly!Are you a coward!Don't you dare to say anything!!"
There was a sudden silence in the queue on Odin's side, and finally, a hoarse voice was heard in the distance.
The voice was not very high-pitched, but it spread throughout the battlefield, and everyone heard it very well.
"A challenge on the battlefield?"
Hasting's Byzantine language was spoken very skillfully and in a cold tone: "I agree to your request, Byzantines. ”
Char laughed, puffed up his breath and shouted, "Okay! I'll just wait to see how powerful you are as good as this Odin Valkyrie...... Prepare for ...... Well, just wait for the afternoon! I'll be waiting for you on the battlefield in the afternoon! I'll come out alone! If you're timid, you might as well bring some more men!"
Slater next to him sighed in his heart when he heard this: Who said that this guy is a rough billet and can even use the agitation method.
Sure enough, Hasting's voice seemed to sneer: "Don't worry, we will fight a fair battle, and I also want to see what it looks like to have people in the Byzantine army who dare to challenge me!"
Slater sighed in his heart when he heard this: bravery is bravery, but it is too reluctant...... Even General Adric can't afford to challenge Hasting......
"Give your name, Byzantine warrior!" said Hasting's voice with a hint of arrogance.
Char smiled, straightened his back, then took a deep breath and roared out in the most majestic, impassioned and passionate voice!
"I'm not afraid to tell you!I!!I
※※※
Hearing this, Slater's first reaction was that his eyes suddenly went dark!!
The second reaction was: I rì! This kid is too despicable and shameless!!
Char jumped off the high platform, and then sat down next to Slater, Slater stared at Char with his eyes wide open, his lips moved, but he found that he couldn't say a word in the face of this shameless boy.
It wasn't until Char sat down and picked up the leather bag and poured a few sips of water that Slater said with a smile: "You...... You...... Alas, you are really ......"
Char glared, but instead said loudly and confidently: "What am I? That guy is the Odin Valkyrie, the number one master in the Odin army! I really fight him? Isn't that a bad brain and sent to death in vain? I haven't lived enough!"
"Yes...... But you openly issued a war letter, and as soon as noon passed, Hastings came out to fight, you, what are you going to do?"
Char smiled, touched his chin, and grinned, "That's not easy, pull our little white-faced Sir out, open the camp gate at that time, and kick him out! As for whether he Hastings is beaten or killed, that's none of my business...... Besides, he's an observer! He's our supreme commander here! Who should he fight? Really go head-to-head with Hasting, starting from the high ground of the military rank and ranking down, even if you are ranked much higher than me, why can't it be my turn to be a small soldier first, right?"
With that, Char lay down on the ground, stretched his body to rest, and recovered his strength: "Anyway, I always bought us half a day, right? That guy Hastings wants to show his strong demeanor, and he won't attack us before noon......
"What about you?" Slater couldn't help but say, "You don't have a bit of a strong demeanor?"
Char pointed to his nose: "I? Look at me, from head to toe, where do I look like a strong man? I'm just a small soldier now! Even if I want to be a strong man in the future, I must at least survive the current level! Otherwise, if I don't become a strong man, I will become a ghost first." ”
Slater glared, took a breath, and finally smiled strangely: "I suddenly found out...... You guy is really shameless!"
Char lay there and patted Slater, "Okay! I took that as a compliment." ”
With that, he closed his eyes.
Slater looked at this turtle and suddenly felt that he couldn't see through this guy. But I heard Char muttering to himself in a low voice as if he was nervous:
"Lao Tzu will not die, he will definitely not die. Even if you want to die...... Not here, not now!"
