(Book friends have monthly tickets, please vote for Xiao Hei's new book, Disaster Advent.) He hasn't done much in the first six of the new book, everyone helps, thank you.
The paper rummaged in the dark, and Seleng Qiufeng passed through the empty streets. The announcement about the attack on an unidentified bandit in the Tosangkad mining area three months ago seemed to be pulled by an invisible hand. With a few wanted orders flapping wings like butterflies on the notice board. militia and the guards are running around the street like headless flies, with shouting noises, sharp whistle, and ringing across the town at night. The bell above the Holy Cathedral minaret in the middle of the town finally reverberated, and the nightmare of midnight horror, a sudden sign of panic, enveloped everyone's heads. However, in a panic-like atmosphere, some people were still indifferent. Jean-Lee was wearing the uniform of the White Wing Cavalry Regiment and embracing his hands against the fence outside the city hall. He looked indifferently at a young couple not far from the street across the street. respectively.
"Loni, take this with me. I heard that Svenfano is very cold. You can use it." The teenager in the uniform of the police uniform shoved the thick fur coat on the carriage with concern. Girl hands. Most of the people sitting on the carriage were gloomy and silent, only the girl was pale and grabbed the teenager's hand: "Evan, will you not go with us?"
The young man smiled: "Loni, I'm the member of the security forces, I was ordered by Her Highness the Princess, I swear allegiance to this kingdom, and to His Majesty the King. Protect this land, protect everyone, Correct, my responsibility, don't be willful I will come to meet you soon. Let me talk about --. ”He pulled out his sword, and the bright sword edge made everyone feel cold.“ My Swordsmanship is one of the best in the guard. Those bones and shelves are nothing terrible. Yes, Loni, you wait, I will is doing a career like Bretton Knight and Count of Tonigel. "
The girl looked at him tightly with her lips tight, and another rapid whistle sounded across the street. The teenager looked back and hurriedly turned around and patted the back of the girl's hand: "The instructor is urging us. You go to Svenfano Wait for me, do n’t worry, it ’s just a few scattered Madara troops. Their main force is still Bucce over the mountain. The Knights of the White Wing Cavalry Regiment has already told us that this battle is not a big deal.
The girl nodded in tears.
Jean-Lee I looked back a bit boringly, just glanced at one's own Companions are holding her one's own The horse came out of the courtyard of the city hall with his warhorse, and he immediately asked: " Captain Convinced them? "" Those with short eyes. " Female Knight Skimming his lips, he answered a little coldly. Jean-Lee know. This is persuasion, but I am afraid that the process of persuasion is not very pleasant -- Those are a bunch of shallow guys, only the immediate interests in their eyes -- He agrees with this, but they are different, no one ever said Vanmier legion All the good guys are righteous people. On the contrary, their reputation in the place is not good. He grabbed the saddle and turned over. At the same time, I swept back, so that the cape and the sabre hanging on the waist were not on the horseback side. He turned his head and saw Rosa doing the same thing.
Both are old cavalry, and they both experienced the fierce war a year ago. Jean-Lee still remembers the scene when he charged towards the endless skeleton sea, looking at it in the dark. Wherever I look, there is only a flashing sea of phosphorous fire. Such a spectacular scene makes people feel cold from the bones. It is said that in that battle, many people were slowed down by being scared. It was after the speed that he was stabbed to death by a spear. But after getting familiar with fighting Madara's. It is gradually discovered that the fighting strength of the bone shelf is just that. The thin bone shelf is far less powerful than an adult.
It's just that he was not afraid, never tired, and never impressed by the retreat army.
Jean-Lee felt the scar on his cheek and asked, "Where?"
"Go meet with our army." Rosa grabbed the reins and clamped the horse's belly slightly, and already trot out first. Jean-Lee had to pat the horse to keep up, but suddenly, a scream ran over the two people's heads, shaking the roof tiles on both sides of the street.
He's subconsciously raises head.
Evan grabbed the one's own sword and turned around and ran towards the meeting point. The sudden scream made the teenager stop and looked up in surprise. In the vast night south of the town, countless stars were slowly rising Up. These starlights rose up into the sky, converged into a ball, and then suddenly dispersed, like a flock of birds turning down. At that moment, the boy finally understood what -- was over.
"Hidden --!"
I don't know where a scream screamed, the sky fire arrows already fell like raindrops, and there were some pedestrians who were fleeing north. At the moment, they fell like a stump in the arrow rain. Magic The tempered icy front penetrated the fragile human body, and the Soul Fire attached to it was burning with oil, and the victim was turned into a human-shaped struggling fire in an instant. Only a few people who responded quickly survived. Evan is one of them. The training since the Captain period saved his life. He did n’t even know how he reacted, and when he returned to God, Body already fell over the door of a pottery workshop. He was somewhat indifferent to raises head, and saw the hanging sign already not far from the workshop door pierced by several arrows, and was slowly engulfed by the faint blue flame.
"What's wrong?"
He looked back, and it seemed like a weed suddenly appeared on the slab-covered street. It was the densely erected tail feathers of arrow(s). The corpse, the scared-down residents, and the burning wreckage seemed to make the whole small in an instant. The scene that was reduced to Hell, Evan stared at it all in astonishment. At this time, a second shriek swept across the entire town, shaking the ground slightly. In his field of vision, a winged creature he had never seen before flapping his wings and flew up. Above the minaret of the town's central Holy Cathedral.
...
The 7th Squadron of the White Wing Cavalry Regiment, Knight-Captain Gage, was so rigid. He tried to grab the one's own command knife several times, but all caught empty. Less than a hundred meters away in front of him, countless bone-arms were lifting the dirt and protruding from the ground, then the skull with phosphorous burning in the eye sockets, then the collarbone, shoulder armor and the entire upper body. Countless skeletons are crawling out of the ground one by one, they shake off the clods on the dark heavy steel mail armor, holding a long bow, one after another stand up, walk forward, and walk to the scheduled position. Then he lifted the longbow, arrow(s) on the longbow was burning with a faint flame, as if in an instant, a complete longbowman position appeared in front of him.
Almost all Knight seemed overwhelmed by Gage, because looking to all directions, the scene in front of them didn't just happen to them. It was everywhere on the front of the Silman river valley. In the dark, the phosphorous fire on the skeleton archer arrow(s) forms a continuous band of light. This strip of light runs from west to east and can't see the end at a glance.
But the point is, where did they come from? scout, where did those guys die? How did these **** bone shelves bypass the line of defense? Did could it be that come from underground?
Such heavy questions hang in everyone's mind.
But for Gage, these issues now converge into a major issue --
What to do?
When the second wave of arrow rain fell from the sky, vice commander Walter, who was almost frightened by the Whitewing Cavalry Regiment, finally reacted, and he finally realized that this was by no means harassment. Even in War of Black Rose, he has never seen so many skeleton archers. Madara's Dark Thanes likes to divide the army into a small team and a small team of command. Generally speaking, a team of Lich usually command with ten to twelve skeletons -- depends on how many Lich and Black Knight under Dark Thane. This battle mode is like Knight leading their servants to fight. Only in large-scale battles, often you can see hundreds of thousands of Lich driving tens of thousands of skulls on the face like a tsunami, which is the scene that the human army is most afraid to see, but fortunately, such Opportunities are rare even for that Brumand's black rose. First of all, it is difficult to bring together thousands of Lich. It often takes many Thane to work together to achieve --, but this is exactly the most difficult thing for Madara to happen.
So when Walt saw thousands of skeleton shooters on that long front, the first reaction was that he was being played. At least three to four Dark Thanes were fighting side by side and cooperated endlessly. At this time, even if he was stupid, he realized that Silman, which seems to be more difficult to attack, is the main direction of Correct Madara's. Realizing this, he immediately thought: what should we do now? How to solve the current battle? Can it still be solved?
The only thing in his mind that can be thankful is that his command is a cavalry. Compared with the regular skeleton warrior of Madara, the cavalry has at least one advantage of mobility and impact. Although Madara also has Black Knight, it is too small. Can not play a decisive role in this battle. The vice commander calmed down quickly, Madara's's raid came too suddenly, these **** bone frames suddenly appeared from the ground, and appeared in front of them almost instantly, there was no response time at all, and a battalion cavalry on his periphery was finished . Although those cavalry were not completely wiped out at the beginning, they were scattered on the position, they were almost unorganized, they were not connected end to end, and they would soon lose the battle Will. Walter was very familiar with one's own, so he did not Some miracle would be expected, but he still has two battalions.
That's enough.
"Declaration!" He finally made up his mind and yelled.
A series of orders were conveyed in a mess, and when the two remaining cavalry battalion in the Silman valley were converging to attack the left flank of the skeleton bow archer, as Walter expected, the White Wing Cavalry Regiment The first battalion already was completely in chaos. The first battalion Knight Commander and mid Gold rank's great knight Galin were unfortunately shot into the eye socket in the first wave of arrow rain and died on the spot. After that, the skeleton army suddenly climbed out of the ground and appeared in front of them. The first cavalry was directly in chaos. battalion was dragged into chaos, but the battle lasted for half an hour, the fourth squadron was completely destroyed, the seventh squadron Knight-Captain Gage died, the eighth squadron Knight-Captain Opam was seriously injured and unconscious, and the remaining highest Commander fell to the first Eighth Squadron's lieutenant Portland head, and this person has always had no opinion, simply led the army to retreat to Owl Town, so the Madara army completely lost the obstruction.
The remaining two cavalry battalion were immediately exposed to the attack front --
Walter was so annoyed when he saw such a scene on the high ground. In his mind, already dragged Opam out and chopped many times, but unfortunately his anger didn't help. It is too late to retrieve the order at this moment, and we can only expect that the response of Madara's is not so fast, and we cannot turn on the battlefield in such a short time. Or the one's own is better, able to withstand one or two waves of attacks, as long as it is in the position of the skeleton archer, then it is easy to handle. They are cavalry. The opponent was nothing but infantry.
If this is in War of Black Rose, maybe the White Wing Cavalry regiment already collapses, but fortunately there is a year away from the war already, this year is left for the everyone licking wounds that have experienced that terrible war. Those terrible undeads are now reduced to ugly bones in the hearts of veterans, and are no longer synonymous with death. In addition to being rigid and fearless, they are not even as good as ordinary human soldiers. They have no fear from their roots. That Brumand's black rose is just a slightly special opponent.
Walter thought of this. He squeezed his lips, "Marsha bless, time changes not only Madara." He thought silently.
That's true.
Blocks of lighting Magic exploded on the position and illuminated the last distance between the hundreds of cavalry fronts and the Madara skeleton army in front of them. Among the cavalry troops moving slowly, Magician One after another, they flew up behind Knight, left the horse, and floated in midair. Although their spell will expose the White Winged Cavalry to the range of the Skeleton Archer, the Cavalry is preparing for the final accelerated sprint. Under dark conditions, it is almost impossible to develop such a tactic. Although some cavalry may be able to do so in the legend, the Commanders of the White Wing Cavalry Regiment has the ability of its one's own subordinates.
The second cavalry battalion Knight Captain Vance is feeling that a good guy on horseback is overtaking himself. In fact, the entire second cavalry battalion is accelerating, less than a hundred meters apart. It is the first cavalry. battalion. The cavalry of Valerie command is a little more advanced than them. Their quest / mission is to open a passage in the ocean of skeletons, so that they can kill the Lich that drives the skeletons behind him. He suddenly felt a light -- on his body. It is a symptom of the role of Wind type spell in him and his warhorse, thanks to a variety of strange Magic. Their cavalry can charge in such rough terrain at night, and these tactics are summarized in War of Black Rose.
Before that, the kingdom ’s army had always followed experience from the first Holy War. It was old-fashioned and old-fashioned, and in fact was not suitable for wars between people.
The war is fair to both sides. The Madara in front of them may be stronger than before, but they are not static. "Look and see, **** bones and bones!" He waved his sword with excitement, Cavalry tactics is the greatest invention of civilization ever. When you take part in it, there are Knights with Mercedes-Benz warhorses, armored hands, and two-handed swords. They all form an irresistible torrent of steel. At that time, each participants seemed to be harnessing this extraordinary power in person, and the feeling was absolutely addictive.
For Vance, it makes no difference.
The arrow rain began to fall. ding ding dangdang fell on the armor, which had little effect. The cavalry's war horses were not close relatives of the steeds, but the tamed monster was closer to the relatives of unicorn from bloodline. They are as powerful in the forest as their relatives, but they are far beyond ordinary beasts. Therefore, the impact force on the arrow(s) is reduced by the thick armor, and then transmitted to them, causing minimal impact.
The Knights already who rushed to the front started making strange noises.
At this distance, we are ready to meet spell, spell of Lich. However, the Magicians at the back are also ready for make a move. This is the last level. Once it breaks through, the front is a skeleton army with no resistance. In War of Black Rose, few armies dared to attack the skeleton army like this in a positive way, but the mysterious coat on this army is different now, because of the accumulation of time after the war, especially after participating For the veterans of the first war, there were only bones in front of them, and new hatred and old hatred were in front of them. They were holding one breath to teach each other a lesson. low level officers are also shouting, cheering on the recruits, everyone understands one thing, they are a cavalry, and the other party is only an infantry. Regardless of the impact failure or not, the infantry cannot pursue the cavalry. .
The only thing you need to worry about is not to be dragged on.
There is Black Knight --
But fortunately, the skeleton army is scattered, and the opponent's Commander does not look like experience. And Vance did not see the shadow of Black Knight. Black Knight and their nightmares were very conspicuous in such an environment. Regardless of where they would be hidden, the entire river valley was open, and the nearest hills were thousands of kilometers away. Worried that they would suddenly appear. Vance glanced around and finally sighed in relief.
The only thing that puzzled him was.
The expected spell strike has not arrived.
"What is Madara's Commander doing?" He was a little confused, could not help raises head to see the direction towards Valerie: "they are already, they are almost missing their last chance ..."
