Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Don't talk nonsense! Your Excellency the Regiment Commander has already sacrificed his life for the country, and it is impossible to be here......" There was silence in the group of soldiers, but soon someone shouted: "But she is indeed very similar, the way she walks, her height, and her ...... Can you say a few words?"
There were more shouts, everyone was trying to express their opinions, everyone was rushing forward,
"That's right, did any of you really see His Excellency the Division Commander dead? Maybe she broke out of the siege at that time, but not many people saw it. "But if that's the case, why didn't she come back?" should make it clear to those damned guys...... "Stupid, if she comes back, she's only going to be framed by those bastards, do you think those damn nobles will take responsibility according to the facts? they'll just find a way to get away with it, and even if the division commander comes back, they'll only ......"
Human beings are herd animals, and the thoughts of most people will become a kind of inducement, so once this kind of talk begins, everyone will start to turn their thoughts in this direction in one go, a robe and a metal mask may obstruct the sight of the unintentional, but for those who have already moved, it is just a little visual shadow.
"Enough, I haven't recognized her yet, whether she is the division commander or not, you all give me peace!"
The tall knight silenced the scene for a moment with a roar, he turned his head and hurriedly saluted, and spoke earnestly to the short, black-robed figure: "Your Excellency, although my request is a bit abrupt for you, it is very important to us, can you let your companion take off his mask......?"
"Shut up!"
Edward raised his eyebrows, but before he could speak, the noble knight beside him had already shouted again: "Are you threatening Your Excellency the Mage?
"Who are they?" Edward asked, but then noticed that the thing wasn't listening to him at all.
"Stand back for me. You damned bastards, ruffians, or I'll shoot you!"
Or in order to curry favor with the 'mage masters' in front of him, the knight captain shouted with great effort: "Go back! What kind of general is not a general, there is no business for you here, give me the way, do you hear!"
"Who are they?"
Shaking his head, the psychic warlock used his spirit to communicate, and the sound in his ears made the noble knight jump as if he had been stepped on his tail.
"We, that. I don't know, they are the loyal battalion that belongs here in the rear, they ......" replied the officer with a pale face, a cold sweat already pouring into his head, and the impression of the mages in everyone's minds was mostly that they had a strange temper. However, his status is quite lofty, and his status as a small aristocratic officer cannot withstand the anger of the other party. And the psychological effect made him understand that flat tone as a kind of impatience: "I'll drive them away right away." But Your Excellency, Master. Look at this, could you please ...... with your companions a little bit My subordinates, no, I'll take you to the City Lord's Mansion myself. This and this ......"
"Okay. ”
Edward couldn't help but have a headache Originally, he only returned to Camino to borrow the teleportation circle in the city, but he didn't expect such a play to be staged, and he seemed to have heard about Claudia's original subordinates. said that the city lord planted a blame in order to shirk responsibility, but at that time he was too busy to take care of himself, of course, it was impossible to pay attention to the affairs of these outsiders. But he didn't expect this incident to be so coincidental, and he actually ran into a group of bitter masters in person at this time.
Actually, it's not a big deal. His status now is completely different from what he was then, and even if he hides Claudia, no one will be able to get a big hat to suppress him, but ...... Too deliberate.
He frowned.
This matter does not seem to be as simple as it seems, although Xiao Ying is a very common thing, but it is impossible to be born in this situation at such a time, especially when it is obvious that he is only inadvertently involved in this incident.
Obviously, there was something behind this matter, he just happened to meet it, and then he was ......
The telemancer rolled his eyes slightly, and noticed that in the robe, the female knight's body seemed to tremble slightly, "I...... I don't know you, and don't let me see you again. Otherwise...... Hmm, my head hurts. She came out in a low voice from under her mask, but fortunately no one paid attention for a moment in the chaos.
"That's right, it's Your Excellency General, even if you wear a mask, I know it, it's definitely Your Excellency General! You don't need her to take off the mask, just take off the hood, Your Excellency General's head is very special color......" "Those idiots really can't ...... our eldest sister like this" "What do you bastard say, you dare to be disrespectful to the general......" "Your Excellency General, help us think of a way, even our stomachs and intestines are angry now!" That's right, we're not traitors, we fought bloodily, and those bastards framed us......"
Confusion spread among the soldiers of the Loyal Battalion, and the people in the rear were anxious to understand the situation ahead, but the narrow streets were not enough for them to come around from the side, hundreds of people crowded forward, and the city guards were chaotically joining the forces to maintain order from the other side, but it was a pity that these soldiers did not have any Jingyan to maintain order at all, and for a while, the metal crash clanged, and it was already a big chaos!
"What's going on here?"
The grand voice of the illusion technique condensed into Wei Kejin's voice The general walked out of the control tower at the head of the city and looked condescendingly at the rioting crowd on the field: "Everyone, ...... immediately"
Before the order could end, it was interrupted by a muffled thud.
A knight who was squeezing forward suddenly tilted his head, and an extra feathered arrow that was still trembling slightly appeared on his neck. And then he rolled over and fell to the ground without saying a word! Although the impact was not loud, it seemed to have some kind of magic power, so that the noisy chaos was suddenly stuck in the neck and quieted, and everyone looked at each other......
After a few breaths, more noise and swearing erupted
"Bastard, you want to kill people?" "Rebelled, rebelled," "Such bastards. Kill them!"
Of course, the reason for this is more like a mistake, a problem that is inevitable in the tense atmosphere. But such an unfortunate mistake often leads to more chain reactions, and more arrows have gone off the string one after another, screaming and shouting, and the sound of metal crashing is immediately mixed together, and then there is the smell of blood that can stimulate people's nerves the most!
"Stop it, brothers! Are you crazy, stop me!"
The tall knight was shocked, but unfortunately at this time, no orders or anything seemed to work. The soldiers on both sides who had been grudging for a long time had already met each other in close quarters, as if it was just a blink of an eye, and there were already three or four corpses lying on the ground!
"Quiet, you idiots!"
Unlike the Shogun's voice, which had been enhanced by the illusion technique, this shout was low and steady. But it was in everyone's ears that made their spirits shake. And with this voice. Countless black shadows rose from the ground and the surrounding walls, and rolled directly towards the hands and feet of the archers on the city wall, firmly controlling them! At the same time, in the middle of the field, the black robe had already withdrawn its hand and took a step forward. It seems to regard the swords that staggered and collided in front of him as nothing!
With his relaxed pace, the invisible chaotic energy surged like a wave, swelling, rushing towards those who were fighting. The effect of the psychic explosion ravaged their minds...... Under this pain that tortured the nerves, the guys with a little weaker resistance had already covered their ears and fell to the ground, and their bodies were curled up like shrimp. Even the strong men were already soft on the ground, with painful expressions on their faces. Leaving those who were lucky enough to stay awake into a stupor.
The riots finally stopped.
"I don't care what you're thinking, or who you're looking for. The voice pierced everyone's minds clearly, chilling their fighting spirit like a block of ice: "Now we don't have time to deal with you frivolous!
The remnants of the loyal battalion looked at each other, and finally chose to obey the strong in an incomprehensible situation, although they did not really line up, but at least they were no longer looking for targets to provoke.
"The target, the southern city wall, is there a problem with the fastest rush to help?"
The voice continued, and everyone followed his words to look in that direction, and then couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and the scattered fires were gradually connecting in their field of vision, but if their memory was correct, they could remember that the place was originally the Camino warehouse area, and some of the food and ordnance were stacked in that relatively safe corner.
The commander's command, the commander's shout, and the breath of thousands of soldiers soon became entangled, and the dispute of a moment ago was meaningless, and defending the city was the first priority in everyone's hearts.
"How many of them are there?" said Edward.
"Since yesterday, the Imperials have begun to gradually rush to the rescue, and today during the day they launched a series of small-scale tentative attacks, although they were all quickly repulsed, but the soldiers of the Blackhawk family suffered considerable losses...... There are some terrible people in the Empire, who can turn into flames, thunder and lightning, or whatever, and often catch people off guard. ”
The tall and loyal knight replied briefly, his eyes swept around the black robe with some curiosity, in his impression, a mage should have been a high and high storage zài, even if he couldn't 'draw a white circle to get into', at least he should fly in the air.
Shouldn't these mages have bodies similar to those of patients, and they will definitely lose their breath as long as they run a few steps?
The god of war is above, and this world is really crazy...... Otherwise, they may not let the general, who has already died in the legend, appear in their ranks again.
But his military qualities as a soldier make his answer accurate and perfect: "The most troublesome thing is that all the inhabitants of this city are deeply hostile to us, and they are cunning enough, and they are outwardly submissive, but in fact they may have some connection with the Imperials." After a pause, he continued, "However, this is my personal judgment, Your Excellency, there is no evidence, but those people have a very strange attitude towards us. I suspect that the Empire is planning a major siege. ”
Edward nodded, but his mind turned to Claudia.
"If it were me, it would be now. The connection between the female knight and the telemancer allowed her not to hear any questions:
"Demoralizing the opponent with constant small-scale attacks and disguising one's intentions for action is a means of fighting against the opposition's ideas. The defenders don't have time to breathe, and they may not be able to understand what the opponent is planning, and attacking the city before the arrival of the army can make the opponent unprepared. If I had the resources they have, I'd probably give it a try......"
"They'll ......"
Edward was about to open his mouth, but was interrupted by a sudden and terrible tremor, he turned his head keenly in that direction, and clearly felt the tremor of a terrible magic web! Then a ** vibration came through the ground, and a creaking sound under the ground quickly turned into a loud rumbling sound!
A loud rumbling sound rang from far and near from the deepest part of the earth. The feeling is similar to an earthquake, but more subtle. But no matter what, this kind of Cheng dù's vibration has made everyone unstable.
"Oops!"
Almost all of them changed their faces at this moment, but before they could say anything, the shaking of the ground had intensified on a large scale! The whole world seemed to be violently shaken by a pair of invisible giant hands! The rumbling sound shook the heavens and the earth! Everyone stopped at this moment and looked up, and saw a huge energy burst out from the ground! The city wall in front of them was illuminated by flames in the night. Trembling like a cold giant! Then, on the flat blue-gray. Discordant black threads began to spread upward. Then expand into a crack visible to the naked eye!
The crack expanded into a crack in the blink of an eye, and then, in a large Y-shaped mouth, the masonry began to crumble downward. Dust and a waterfall of rubble began to flow from the city walls, and in the shaking scenery in front of you, one crevice after another stretched out like living creatures. Then it was covered by a thick layer of dust! The soldiers on the city walls fled in all directions with a terrified scream. But the next moment, they all fell into the rising gray mist along with the masonry under their feet! Those desperate screams echoed over the fortress, and it was chilling in people's hearts!
The tremors finally stopped, and people's eyes glazed over. They looked at the large puffs of smoke and dust, and noticed the shadows shaking inside, and groups of Imperial infantry emerged from the gray-white smoke and dust! They shouted, raised the battle flag of the golden flower in their hands, and advanced through the gaps in the three city walls, like a gray torrent, breaking the embankment, and rushing towards the soft inner defense line of the city with the light of fire!
This group of people does have a gap in ability that is superior to that of ordinary soldiers, although it is only about five hundred people, but when they dispersed, they actually stopped the elite of the empire that had rushed up on the entire city wall!
Two Imperial infantry burst out of the shelter and approached Edward with great vigour, but the big man who followed him immediately let out a low roar and pounced on one of them with his sword! At the moment of the confrontation, he turned around and let the Imperial soldier's weapon slash through his own half-body armor, bringing up a spark, and with the help of this gap, he used the iron glove of his left hand to hold the spine of the sword, and together he flicked away the weapon of another Imperial soldier, and then stabbed the next back-stab without any skill, and the blade pierced through the gap under the opponent's half-body armor and into the thigh!
Then in the other party's scream, he rushed into the opponent's weapon defense circle as soon as he hit it, reached out and pushed the opponent's helmet and turned it around half a circle, so that the other party fell into the dilemma of not seeing anything, just when the other party subconsciously reached out to pull his helmet, the tall sword was already on the opponent's neck, and in the heart-pounding friction of the click, the enemy had already spurted blood and fell, but he was pushed to another enemy without hesitation, while the other party was in a hurry, he had already stabbed out with a sword again, piercing the opponent's neck!
Edward nodded, a look of approval in his eyes.
This should be the battle array swordsmanship that those mercenaries once mentioned, this kind of thing that soldiers have explored after a long period of war formation career, not pursuing fixed tricks, or even fixed combat methods, flexible, ruthless and efficient. In fact, it is not so much a sword technique, but closer to a kind of mixed martial arts, it is a complete abandonment of fancy, the pursuit of the maximum means of killing, but on the battlefield there is no more suitable than this kind of swordsmanship to kill and save life, it is the only two purposes pursued by this kind of swordsmanship, in that place of iron and blood, any thinking other than these two things is superfluous.
