Volume IV Reign of Chaos 245 Brute Hammer Dwarves
Artillery!
I'm more afraid of this thing.
From a few hundred meters away, our bows and arrows can't shoot, but their artillery can.
They didn't have the kind of cannonball that could explode when they hit it, at most it was a large iron ball, or two small iron balls connected by chains.
The power of the big one is great, and it hits and dies, but the iron ball connected by chains is more powerful and has a wider range.
Goblins have this kind of thing.
It's some green-skinned monsters that live at the end of the forest south of Elwin, you should know. The artillery used by the orcs for the invasion was provided by the goblins. And the dwarves' artillery can only be said to be more than equal.
We were still waiting for Sarnos to resurrect the dead on the ground when the loud explosion sounded, but it wasn't until the shells landed next to me that it was not good.
A single shell can take away several soldiers, and even if everyone is far away, they will encounter at least two or three soldiers. After a burst of explosions, I was surprised to see the white smoke coming out of the small cannon pulled by the dwarf with the goat's mount.
"Withdraw! Evacuate! I yelled for everyone to run, and as soon as I reached out to interrupt Sarnoth's spell, Guntel looked at the dwarf behind him in surprise.
The dwarven cavalry was in formation, while the dwarven infantry was almost ready.
"Kill them!" Sarnos shouted, and a flame instantly ignited in his hands.
"Withdraw first!" I shouted at him.
"We can defeat them!" Sarnos shouted.
"Later! Withdraw first! "I turned my head to all the walking corpses standing around me, and the group was obedient, and they did it immediately." Their firearms may not be able to defeat us, but I can guarantee that we will have almost no men left after this battle, and my mission is to bring more soldiers to the King of Arthas instead of wasting time and destraining them here! ”
"But ......"
"When Arthas returns, you can slaughter them to your heart's content!" I gritted my teeth and squeezed the words out between my teeth.
The dwarves' muskets can't do much damage to us at this distance, so if we run fast enough, we can get rid of them. But just then, a dozen griffons flew up from behind them!
My heart pounded when I saw the griffons.
It was a cavalry that could take the head of the enemy's general among the ten thousand armies. If the concealment is good enough, once these guys aim at the target in the event of a scuffle, everyone dives together, and the chances of the basic target surviving are very small!
Guntel saved my life because of this.
The griffon cavalry would hover over us when they flew up, and I knew they were looking for a target, and if I was locked on, I would probably be killed. But I feel like I'm locked in, after all, there aren't many horseback riders in our team!
But I don't have a better way, the only one who can cast spells is Gunther, Sarnos has an elf whose name I don't know, and there are a few trolls who can cast spells but I'm not sure if they can do it.
Finally they began to dive, but instead of lining up in a row, they would dive in three separate directions, which posed a huge threat to us on the ground. You can avoid the first one, but you may not be able to avoid the second, even if you dodge the first two, there is a third and fourth!
"All into the woods!" I shouted. If I don't beckon, I'll be targeted when I realize it's not good.
I kept turning my body to see where the griffons were above my head, and my mind was racing about what to do when I noticed the first griffon swooping down on me. But...... They're too fast!
I flipped off my horse, and I could feel the sound of the hammer crashing past me, and then it slammed into the ground.
I tried to use the horse's body as cover as I tried to lay down, but the undead horse was kicked to the ground by the griffon's hind paws.
The horse pressed at me, and I couldn't dodge and was crushed directly under the horse.
And the griffin fell to the ground after kicking down the warhorse, and I was shocked, "It's over!" "I struggled to twist around and crawl out from under my horse, but another griffon fell from the sky, and the undead horse fell crooked, and before I could put it down, the second griffon stepped on me at once.
I distinctly heard the sound of a horse's ribs being trampled. I didn't feel any pain, but I couldn't pull my leg out.
Turning his head back, the guy on the griffin had blue paint on his face, his long red beard was braided in two braids, and the hair on his head was extremely luxuriant, he was not wearing heavy armor, but the gaze that shot from the helmet he fastened to his head was indeed very fierce.
Not only the gaze, but also the flail he raised!
If the flail had been smashed on my head, it wouldn't have been. Just when I felt like I was going to die, the dwarf flew out of the griffin.
It's flying out. It's a huge force...... Push it out. The dwarf above was tied to the griffon, and when the dwarf flew out, his mount jumped off his horse.
And the hammer that the first dwarf to fall from the sky threw on the ground flew back into his hand at once. I was so shocked!
But when I looked up at him, I didn't see it at first glance, but I didn't think he was Furstad!
It's hard to imagine what it would be like if he were Furstad, and I don't know if he would recognize me. Yes...... If it was him, I guess I'd be dead again.
The guy didn't immediately smash the hammer at me, but slammed his ass under the saddle, and the griffon flew all at once. I thought it would be enough, but the griffons on the head apparently didn't finish the attack, and they swooped down on our side again, only this time it wasn't me.
Once again, I was amazed by the power of Gunther, who had saved my life, and I had been spared by the powerful thrust that pushed the dwarf away, and the magician unleashed the barrage of magic again when the griffon knight aimed at him.
It wasn't frost magic, it wasn't fire magic, it was one of the most gorgeous spells I've ever seen. Only this time he released it towards a target in the sky.
The missiles that were sprayed out in an instant were like bursting sparks, and the area of the spray was also quite large, hundreds of large and small missiles shot towards the sky, and the diving knight was instantly beaten into a sieve. Just like Ramsden.
But Ramsden is dead, this one is alive!
The griffon took the knight above and arched his head directly to the ground, and instantly did not move. Just as the spell was cast, he threw a fireball at another griffon flying in the sky.
The griffin reacted quite quickly, and one rolled over and dodged directly, and this roll also made him lose the opportunity to attack. But it was a blessing that he didn't get hit, and he flew away with a sharp turn.
And Sarnos's fire magic also showed a wave, after the battle he was very excited to tell me that he had locked on to a target, the dwarf had not been flying far enough, and it was hovering at a distance of about twenty or thirty meters from the ground, and after he applied the magic to the knight, the knight exploded instantly, and after the explosion with him as a blasting pull-up, all the knights around him were directly blown up, and even one fell directly.
But then he said that the knights did not retreat, but that one of them swooped down on him, and that knight, also with a flail, slammed it at his head as the griffon swept over his head. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been killed. Then he threw a fireball at the guy and missed.
Then all the surviving griffin knights flew high and then all lunged at the soldiers who were desperately fleeing the battlefield.
The dwarven cavalry began to run towards us, not with all their might, but at this point we had to start charging after another hundred and ten meters.
"The cavalry has begun to charge!" I yelled at the guys who could cast spells. "Block them!"
Sure enough, the wall of fire had to be useful, and the wall of flames that spread for thirty or forty meters also ignited the grass on the ground. Seeing this, Sarnos became an arsonist. As he ran, he set fire to everything around him that could be set on fire. Soon the trees and grass were on fire, and the dwarven cavalry, blocked by the flames, rushed through a wall of fire, but no one could stand it when there was another flame all over the ground.
With the help of a few guys who can play with fire, we can be considered to have escaped. And while the griffon knights killed a few of our soldiers, the resurrected trolls weren't fools, and there were plenty of them. After the throwing of weapons, stones, bows and spears, successfully inserted a griffon knight, they chose to retreat.
It was my first encounter with a Hammerhammer Dwarf.
I'm glad we didn't kill more dwarves, but their impression of invincibility in my mind has been shaken, and our lich is a treasure that can turn the tide of battle!
The dwarves retreated because of the fire that spread in the field, but only temporarily avoided it, and when we encountered a large force in front of us, this group of guys came again, but the addition of this group of guys during the melee did add a huge problem to us!
After repelling the dwarven attack, we immediately went to look for the large army, but by chance we did not meet the large army, but instead ran into the main human force that had abandoned the large army to destroy us.
At that time, my heart was pinched, this wave of unsettled situation made me really uncomfortable, my herald did not know where to run at that time, and now it seems not very realistic to notify the large army to come to the rescue, I can only pray that they will get the news and come to my aid.
At that time, the human army was in front of us, and the path ahead was blocked, and the dwarves behind could appear at any time, so what about leaning to the side...... But when I found the griffon rider reappearing a few hundred meters in the air, I knew I couldn't run.
