The Amber Sword: The 190th Battle of White Lion XIII
The first wave of fighting broke out quickly, but Scherut's attack was severely blocked. After shooting an arrow towards the southern part of the sea cliff fortress, but did not succeed, they soon exposed the target and fell into the siege. Having to retreat, the front line once retreated to the middle point between the main city wall of Fattan Port and the Sea Cliff Fortress. Delphine re-entered the two teams of Hong Kong Guards to join the battle.
In the southern part of the city wall of the sea cliff fortress, Knight Captain Suoke, who had just been frightened above the city wall, also found that the attack of Undeads was blocked. 'It seems that the previous attack was still found.' He immediately realized this, The intention of these port guards is obviously to regain the sea cliff fortress, but they obviously did not realize that there are so many enemies in the sea cliff fortress. Now the other party is still stubbornly resisting and wants to arrange the defense for the rear allies to gain time.
When did the combat Will and tactical literacy of the Port Guard Port Fattan get so high? He couldn't help but be a bit surprised, this is not to say that he knows how to protect the army, which is not even the second-line legion, but a general recognition, as the empire's elite, White's legion's vanguard, Sok Of course, qualified to look down on the brothers in these places, the performance of the Hong Kong Guard today is obviously a little bit unexpected.
After joining the two squadrons, the situation on the battlefield for a moment actually reclined again. Scherut and his colleagues once returned to the southern part of the sea cliff fortress. They even climbed the mountain towards the rock. There were two shocks on the wall, but unfortunately they were repelled by the Lich and the skull on the wall.
This is not uncommon. Because the terrain outside the sea cliff fortress is very narrow, it will only become wide and flat again near the top of the sandbar in the second half, but Scherut and his colleagues firmly guarded it. Along the sea cliff trail, Undeads's superior strength cannot be used at all. Harbour Defence Army is certainly not worth mentioning in front of Baizhi legion. But in the face of the same number of weak skeletons, they have an absolute advantage.
But the Lich quickly mobilized the skeleton archers from behind, and once again changed the battle situation, a row of aligned skeleton archers shot down from the wall of the southern part of the sea cliff fortress, and the dense steel arrows The rain for a moment caused Scherut's team to suffer heavy losses, and the other two teams also seemed to be different. The morale of Harbour Defence Army, which had just risen, immediately dropped to the freezing point, almost all the way back under the main city wall of Fattan Port.
Seeing this scene, Ludwig Baron ca n’t help but feel a little embarrassed on his face. Although he is not a military chief of Fattan Harbor, Harbour Defence Army is a direct report of Fattan City Lord. Seen from the battlefield The garrison fleeing the Hong Kong Guard, he almost couldn't help but want to rush over these guys curse on behalf of him, but when it came to his lips, he remembered who was the Commander here, and had to sullen his face to swallow dirty words back into his stomach.
Delphine is much calmer than him, as if he had expected it. She watched this scene quietly down the city and ordered: "Up arrow."
Her voice was not high, but the herald faithfully passed on her order. The soldiers in the front row of the city wall stepped back, and the back row immediately revealed the two rows of long bows and arrows. The hand and archer are rare products in Vaunde. They are almost all professional soldier or mercenary. Crossbowmen are common in the general army. Even the heavy crossbowman is much more than the archer, and the archer has not trained for many years. There is no battlefield at all, and there is a professionally trained archer company existence in a port guard in the Empire. The strength can be seen, and it can't help but be sighed. In fact, Marjorie and O'Neill are aware that there is such a team. Long archer company had a different look on his face.
On Vaunde. Almost all archers use Magic Bow. Because the investment in training an archer is much greater than creating a Magic Bow, the long archers using Magic Bow far exceed the crossbowman in range, accuracy and projection density, and they can also use Enchanting arrow(s), when using Enchanting arrow(s). The power of the longbow also goes far beyond the heavy crossbow.
The archer opened his long bow under the order, and the feathers and arrows clustered on the bow flashed a light gold luster. The holy potion was obviously poured on it. Rows of long bows are raised in the rain curtain, and arrow(s) accurately points to a certain shooting angle. This is also a place where the Magic Bow is far overweight crossbow. It is waterproof. Ordinary bows and crossbows will lose power due to damp, but magical item does not have this. concern.
The herald looked at Delphine, who nodded indifferently.
"Put it!"
"Put it!"
"Let's go!" A slam command sounded. At that moment, the entire city wall lightened slightly, as if flashing a line of Dark Gold color at the same time. It was the cold light brought out by the feather arrows. There seemed to be a white line advancing in the rain curtain, with a loud cry, as if a gust of wind was blowing on the face, and an already rained on the sandbar.
Critically speaking, arrow(s) has limited lethality to the skeletons, because arrow(s) can easily pass through the pores of their bones. Even if they hit the bones with luck, they can only shoot off one or two ribs, which cannot be done. What a big influence, only good luck shot off the tibia and neck, can produce effective killing, but in the dark night, such a chance is really too small.
But this arrow rain is not the same. When each arrow(s) approaches the skull, a strong light of light is emitted above it. The skulls hit are like melted butter, arrow(s) passes through their bodies. Leaving a huge cavity, even the golden flames were burning at the broken bones. Even in the heavy rain and snow, the flames did not go out at all. Instead, the flames became more and more intense, turning a skeleton into a skeleton. For ashes.
On the battlefield in the dark, for a moment seems to have risen a sea of golden fire, and the sea of skulls under the main city wall of Fattan has been burned out of a blank area without warning.
"Prepare for the second round of firing." Delphine ordered, while she shouted: "Marjorie."
"On!"
"Ready to attack, I ask you to lead the three teams of White Lion Guards to drive Undead Army back to the southern section of the sea cliff fortress and attack the fortress!"
"Yes!" Marjorie replied without hesitation.
At this time, the lined archer already completed the second round of attack. On the battlefield, it takes twelve seconds for a trained heavy crossbowman to re-shot, but a well-trained archer only needs three of this time. One-half, another golden arrow rain fell on the skulls, and the skeleton army of several teams under the city wall immediately became sparse and pulled up.
But they did not crash. The most troublesome point of undead's army is that there is no morale, especially low grade undead. Although they lack wisdom, they will not feel fear and naturally will not shrink back easily.
At this time, the city gate rose slowly, and Marjorie killed with White Lion Guards.
"The archer changes to Enchanting fire arrows. To prepare for the third round of shooting, it is required to cover the rear section of Undead Army and cover the Marjorie assault." Delphine calmly gave instructions.
"Delphine Young Lady, why should you change fire arrows?" Orkens Count is anxious: "The sacred arrow(s) has a good attack effect, and there are several bases for storing the bullet. fire arrows has no effect on the skeleton!"
Delphine glanced at him, and replied badly: "Is it Commander or you Commander, according to my command line, light the torch"
The moment it lit up on the main wall of Fattan Harbor. Sok knew that today ’s sneak attack had ended. He saw a torch and a brazier lit in sequence on the wall of the city 500 meters away. Under the light of the torch, the walkway on the wall was full of soldiers. The archers of Harbour Defence Army stood in neat and tidy in two rows.
When the archer fired the first two rounds of arrow rain, he frowned slightly, subconsciously glanced suspiciously, but in the third round of arrow rain with firelight in the rain curtain flashes. Sok finally reassured, it seems that the Priests of Holy Cathedral of Fire in the city did not gather in immediately. According to the information, the sacred arrow(s) of the previous one should be stored. According to information, the Enchanting arrow(s) of Harbour Defence Army should not have too many sacred arrow(s)s. After all, this area has never been attacked by undead before. recording.
However, the attack was inevitably repelled, followed by the arrow rain. He saw an unfamiliar army killed from the port city of Fattan. This force was not weaker than Harbour Defence Army and even more than that. The opponent's equipment seemed to be between light and heavy infantry, but the action was extremely flexible . The assaults were so explosive that several skeleton teams couldn't resist in the face of such an offensive and were soon forced back to the sea cliff trail.
This is obviously not an ordinary army. "White Lion Legion", a noun immediately came to mind. Abner and Duke were well-arranged before attacking Fattan Port. Of course, intelligence work was essential, so Sok was very clear about the law. What are the details of Aouinian stationed in Tanzania Harbor?
Of course, even Abner and Duke will not know what is the difference between White Lion Legion and White Lion Guards in that small kingdom. He just confuses the two.
The sneak attack was discovered and the offensive was blocked again. The battle that originally occupied the front has not unexpectedly turned into a confrontation, but this has not exceeded the expectations of Sok. In fact, it was so easy to win the sea fortress already in his prediction. In addition, it may even exceed the total Commander Abner and Duke expectations of this battle. Harbour Defence Army and Aouinian cannot be trapped by the low main wall of the Fatham Port. All they have to do is to break through the city gate and then Undeads went into street fighting.
Of course, it is better to have no street fighting.
He hoped that once the city wall fell, the enemies that lost hope would disarm and surrender, but from the intensity of the resistance at this moment, it seems that this wish should be defeated.
Sokler rightfully attributed it to the reason why the eldest son was in the city
But he is not very worried, because undead is originally cannon fodder. Even if it is completely consumed here, no one will feel a little pain. In the street battle, use undead to consume the blood of Aouinian and Harbour Defence Army. This is obviously a good deal. Buy and sell. As for the white legion, Sok knew that there was only one of their enemies. He suddenly turned his head, and the valley behind was suddenly dark, but he knew that there were tens of thousands of Undead Army, and in the further direction, it was a golden needle. Hilly area around the valley.
I don't know if Erich or already is in place.
He frowned silently.
...
Port Aweshin, inside the fortress of Convey
With a squeak, the door of the room was pushed open by the attendant: "Master Duke, Sir Erich his Griffin battalion already arrived at the scheduled area, Sir Bernd and his silver wing Knights also sent a Magic message three minutes ago, Say already is ready "
Abner and Duke retracted their eyes from the stone hole window: "What about the fleet of Buga people?"
"Nothing has happened."
"How's the battle at Port Fattan?"
"The observation of frontline showed that the sneak attack was very successful. The undead advance troops captured the sea fortress in one fell swoop, but the enemy's resistance was fierce and the front line was deadlocked under Fattan City.
Abner and Duke frowned slightly: "There is no fortress of the sea cliffs, those Aouinians will be short-lived, I will will make Madara people work harder, you go down, and inform Erich and Bernd to be ready to attack."
Brill Count looked at the re-closed door and turned back: "old fellow?"
"Relax, old friend, the problem is not big," Abner Seoul Duke glanced at the smoky bone staff suspended in mid-air: "I have been investigated by already, Manoli and his subordinates are in golden needle for a few hours The direction of the forest lost contact. Also missing was a counterfeit bone staff, presumably a mouse sneaked in. "
"it doesn't matter?" The former frowned slightly, and asked a little uneasily.
"it doesn't matter, the situation of frontline is very good. It is impossible for Buga people to think of our plans and blame them. I am afraid that no one in this world will think of Her Majesty the Queen already and Madara reached an alliance. Abner and Duke are in a good mood: "The Madara's offensive was more successful than expected. There was no Aouinian in the sea fortress port to save their lives. That poor Lord Count was shot by a Buga person and did not know it. , But the Empire will not have mercy on him. "
He went to the desk of Count, picked up the vermiculite and iron scrapes on the desk and lit the pipe, then lifted the pipe and took a sip, squinting deeply and sighing one breath.
"The mouse that sneaked into Auwesin must be the scout of northerner, rest assured that someone will take care of them."
"It's not like you, old fellow, boasted Haikou before the war came to fruition." Brill Count seemed to be infected by this emotion, and laughed: "What about our cautious white Duke master?"
"The results of this war already, Brill," Abner Seoul Duke shook his head: "Buga people can not declare war on two empires at the same time."
"That being said," Brill Count reminded: "Don't forget that Buga people still have a fleet here"
"Yes," Abnerr Duke replied without hesitation: "So we are waiting for their fleet."
