Chapter 300: The Battle in the Palace
- What a liar. This sentence was stuck in Jack's throat and he didn't have time to say it, if it wasn't for the lack of time, he really wanted to scold this treacherous captain who was still playing tricks on one of his miscellaneous soldiers, what a pity.
At this moment, a long sword stretched out from the side and caught the captain's sword.
"What's going on, hurry up and inform the others!"
Jack turned around and saw a face that wasn't very familiar, because there wasn't much communication, Jack only knew that this was one of the king's knights, but he didn't know the name.
Looking at the enemy, and then at the knights who had come to the rescue, Jack knew that he would only get in the way if he stayed here, so he hugged his legs and ran.
"Go to the main gate first, and don't let the enemy merge with the rebels outside. ”
The knight's admonition came from behind him, and then the knight was heard speaking to the enemy.
"You are the Great Prince...... No, the rebels of Gusin-Heberis, right? ”
Jack jumped, if the rebel was the Great Prince...... This was Heberis's first coup d'état in hundreds of years, and he participated in such a historical moment, but he was not happy at all, because if the enemy was the eldest prince, it would mean that his original companion might become an enemy.
As he ran towards the main entrance of the palace, Jack saw the corpses of many of his colleagues, who should have enjoyed sitting in their chairs and enjoying the condolences brought by the successor team, but at this time they lay on the cold ground and could not wake up.
It seems that it was taken advantage of the weak time of the early morning shift, and Jack could almost guess that the enemy was divided into two parts, one of which killed the successor team of the cantonment, while the other enemy hunted the scattered team.
As long as the palace guards are eliminated, then the palace will fall into a state of temporary blindness, and take advantage of this time to bring more troops to the palace.
It all makes sense, except for one thing, which is combat power.
Although it is not very difficult to deal with the palace guards, it takes a lot of people to ensure that the guards who are on patrol are killed, not to mention the forces needed to silently encircle and eliminate the succession team, and this is only the initial stage, after solving the guards, the prince's people need to face the king's guard knights.
As the knights who protect the king, the king's guard knights have the strength to rival the most elite knights in the kingdom, which means that the eldest prince must arrange the combat power beyond the strongest knights in the kingdom into the palace to make this coup successful, but is it possible?
Jack couldn't guess.
Soon, Jack came to the main entrance, but by the time he arrived, it had completely collapsed, leaving nothing but corpses in one place.
Jack looked in the direction of the palace through the darkness, and at this moment, he could only pray that the lords of the Knights of the Guard would be able to fend off the rebels.
After opening the main entrance with the eyeliner that had been planted in the palace earlier, Gushin personally led a hundred mutants straight to the palace, because the guards that served as an alarm had been cleared, and the journey was very smooth.
The mutant army is very powerful, but it is only a hundred ordinary soldiers, and after receiving poisonous blood, these ordinary soldiers have all become combat weapons.
After a quick march, Gushin arrived at the King's chambers with the mutant army, where the Knights of the Guard were already in battle.
A total of two hundred knights of the Guard, the final force of the guards, stood in front of the king's bedchamber, waiting to slash the invading enemy by the sword.
And there are only a hundred people on his side, and the gap is simply desperate, but Gu Xin is not worried at all, he knows that he will win, and the mutants will win.
The battle is on the verge of breaking out.
"Please restrain your hands, and the king will consider taking it lightly. ”
The man who stood up was dressed in the most ornate armor of all the Guards Knights, which also indicated the identity of this man, the head of the Guards Knights.
Gu Xin smiled disdainfully, this was really meaningless persuasion, so meaningless that he didn't even bother to answer.
With a wave of his hand, Gusin ordered.
"Attack!"
The mutants of a hundred people moved, and they ran on all fours like wild beasts and charged.
In order for mutants to be able to exert their maximum strength, they are not equipped with standard weapons such as swords and armor, but only steel leather armor with important parts, and mimic claws strapped to their arms.
This was the armament that the best alchemists under the prince had considered after studying the direction of mutant enhancements, and it turned out that the alchemists were right.
The mutants of a hundred men were like a hundred ferocious beasts, and the soldiers rushed towards the Guards Knight from both sides in two directions.
It is simply an extremely unreasonable and stupid tactic for a few people to encircle and suppress the majority, but this is not the case, the mutants can easily tear a breakthrough in the flank of the Guard Knights, they are like the most primitive and violent beasts, with their artificial claws, the Guard Knights tear apart along with their armor.
However, it is difficult for the knights to cause damage to mutants, and the slash of the long sword cannot cause fatal injuries to these beast-like enemies, and the martial arts will be dodged, even if there is a magic pattern to strengthen the physical ability, it will not be able to please well, because the mutants can still use martial arts and magic patterns, and even because the basic ability is higher, the mutants have further surpassed the guard knights after being strengthened by the magic pattern.
After the initial shock and panic, the Captain of the Guards Knight quickly calmed down, and he didn't think about why the enemies were so powerful, and directly treated these enemies as magical beasts.
"Don't panic, shrink the formation, rely on a tight formation to meet the enemy!"
No matter how strong the enemy was, it was inferior to the Knights of the Guards in numbers, so after the Knights of the Guards contracted their formation, the battle once again entered a stalemate.
Whenever a mutant attacks a knight, there is always another knight who assists them, and although they can't do much damage to the mutant, they are able to force the mutant back.
"It's a defensive-friendly tactic. ”
Gusin laughed and sighed that there was nothing more difficult than a simple, straightforward, yet incomparably effective defense, for it was a stubborn stone, and there was no other way to break it than to break it.
But so what? A stone is a stone after all, and as long as the force of the blow is enough, it is not too difficult to break it.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a knight in the queue to create a gap due to fatigue, and the mutants seized the gap and ripped the knight out of the queue, tearing it to shreds.
It was like a signal, a sign that the knights were exhausted, and after that, the knights continued to die, and the originally impregnable formation was broken up.
The knights of the Guard, who were scattered, went from being defenders to lone prey.
The battle was soon over. (To be continued.) )
