Winged Horned Demon, a variant of Horned Demon.
Winged Horned Demon, a variant of Horned Demon.
Horned demons are a common type of low-level demons. They are much stronger than the lowest level of demons and cowards, and they can be regarded as the main force in the demon army.
Usually, even a trained and experienced veteran can hardly defeat them in a one-on-one confrontation.

The double-winged horned devil, as the name suggests, is a kind of horned devil that has grown a pair of wings. They are very similar to normal horned demons in appearance, except for the pair of wings on the back.
Usually, even a trained and experienced veteran can hardly defeat them in a one-on-one confrontation.
However, it is precisely this pair of wings that gives them more tactical significance than the same kind among the demon army.
The double-winged horned devil, as the name suggests, is a kind of horned devil that has grown a pair of wings. They are very similar to normal horned demons in appearance, except for the pair of wings on the back.
There is no way for the two-winged horned demon to hover at an altitude of several hundred meters and fly long distances like a real flying creature—such as a griffin. They can only maintain the flying state within a few minutes at most, and they can rarely fly to a height of more than 100 meters.
However, it is precisely this pair of wings that gives them more tactical significance than the same kind among the demon army.
But just such a limited flying ability still makes them very difficult to deal with.

Like now.
Like now.
Taking advantage of the fact that Colthello's ranger troops had just completed a round of shooting, these cunning demons immediately launched an offensive. Hundreds of double-winged horned demons flew out suddenly, directly at a height of more than ten meters, crossed the sword dancer's defense line, and rushed straight at the ranger troops!

Corthello's scalp is numb!
Corthello's scalp is numb!
The enemy's attack was too fierce, and a large number of demons were preparing to attack his defense line. Among them, the number of horned demons was the largest, followed by some refining demons and barbed demons. Although the number of these two kinds of demons is relatively rare, they are much stronger than the horned demons in terms of combat effectiveness!
These charging demons were already enough to make Colthello feel troublesome, and the dive attack of the ranger troops by the two-winged horned demon made him even more defeated.

Colonel Elf has come to his senses: This is a tough battle, maybe he will really lose!

Under such circumstances, it aroused the fierceness in his heart: he himself is a commander characterized by bravery, courage, and aggressiveness, and the timid look before was really not his style.

But now, in the face of a difficult situation, he feels that he has got rid of the shackles on himself, and he can let go and fight a good game!

After passing the army mage and reporting the situation here to General Patience, Colthello is ready to fight the enemy to the death!

"The ranger troops are ready for hand-to-hand combat! The sword dancers relax their formation and prepare to charge back! Nightsaber cavalry follow me!"
While issuing three commands in a row, he also took out the moon blade hanging on his back and held it up high!

"Go!"
While issuing three commands in a row, he also took out the moon blade hanging on his back and held it up high!
The extremely fast night sabers, with the cavalry on their backs, quickly charged up from the flanks. The cavalry followed the colonel, and in the blink of an eye, before the horned demons fell, they arrived at a position where they could attack the horned demons.
"Go!"
A large piece of silver-white light flashed, and the cavalry of the entire Nightsaber Battalion, following Colonel Colthello's movements, threw out the moonblades in their hands.

The rotating moonblade drew a beautiful white rainbow in the sky, and cut out a piece of scarlet, foul-smelling, and extremely hot blood.
A large piece of silver-white light flashed, and the cavalry of the entire Nightsaber Battalion, following Colonel Colthello's movements, threw out the moonblades in their hands.
The timely arrival of the nightsaber cavalry is very meaningful. The spinning sharp blades they shot caused at least half of the two-winged horned demons to fall directly from the sky in one blow.
The rotating moonblade drew a beautiful white rainbow in the sky, and cut out a piece of scarlet, foul-smelling, and extremely hot blood.
The impact of the sharply reduced number of horned demons on the rangers was greatly reduced. Only about fifty or sixty double-winged horned demons actually landed on the ground and killed the ranger troops.

However, the moment these two-winged horned demons landed, Colthello's troops were hit hard.

The power of these two-winged horned demons diving from mid-air is really too strong. Any ranger, as long as he is targeted by the demon on his head, it will be difficult to escape. Those two-winged horned demons that descended from the sky firmly controlled the ranger with their powerful arms. The sharp claws ruthlessly tore at the thin body of the elf ranger. On the ferocious face, the big mouth drooling opened suddenly, almost able to completely wrap an elf's head in one mouthful!
However, the moment these two-winged horned demons landed, Colthello's troops were hit hard.
That's exactly what they do. Colthello saw with his own eyes that more than one ranger was thrown down by the demon, and his head was completely wrapped in the demon's big mouth, and then he closed it suddenly, with a huge bite force, directly biting the elf's head from his neck come down!

The blood spewing out crazily was stained with the devil. They will not feel sick because of this, the warm blood, on the contrary, further aroused the viciousness of the devil.

This round of dive offensive caused at least 50 casualties among the elf rangers, which almost meant that the entire squadron of rangers had been reimbursed!
The blood spewing out crazily was stained with the devil. They will not feel sick because of this, the warm blood, on the contrary, further aroused the viciousness of the devil.
But the elf troops have also reacted. The ranger, who was closer to the devil, directly drew out the scimitar from his waist, and bravely rushed towards the devil!

Ranger troops are not the same as ordinary archers, and the scimitars on their waists are not just decorations! Of course, the swordsmanship of the elf ranger is slightly different from that of the elf sword dancer, and he is not as good at the special body skills in close combat as the sword dancer, so he can avoid damage as much as possible.

But that doesn't mean they don't have the courage to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy!

Of course, the swordsmanship of the elf ranger is slightly different from that of the elf sword dancer, and he is not as good at the special body skills in close combat as the sword dancer, so he can avoid damage as much as possible.
The sharpest weapons of rangers are naturally the bows and arrows in their hands. If it wasn't necessary, of course they wouldn't throw away their best strengths crazily and use their flesh and blood to fight against the enemy. But now there was no other way, the double-winged horned demon's assault was too violent, so they had to fight hard!
But that doesn't mean they don't have the courage to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy!
Rangers holding scimitars charged forward with the cloaks behind them fluttering in the wind. One or two rangers pinched a horned demon with two wings, temporarily curbing the raging demons. As for the other rangers who were farther away from the two-winged demon, they either retreated or panned, and after pulling out a certain distance, they drew out their arrows, drew their bows and shot!

The vigorous elves can shoot precise arrows while jumping and running. When approached, their accuracy rate is frighteningly high! Even if the demons are physically strong and have a strong ability to resist damage, sometimes arrows are shot into their shoulders, which cannot greatly affect their actions.

But if the arrow is directly inserted into the eyes, or hits the head, neck, or heart, the demon will not be able to survive.

Not to mention, when the rampage of these two-winged horned demons was contained and some time was saved, the night saber cavalry led by Korthello also arrived!
But if the arrow is directly inserted into the eyes, or hits the head, neck, or heart, the demon will not be able to survive.
After the night saber cavalry shot out a crescent moon, they rushed towards the ranger's position. After the whirling moon blades returned to the hands of the cavalry, they brandished the weapons and drove the ferocious beasts to pounce on the demons who were fighting fiercely with the rangers.
Not to mention, when the rampage of these two-winged horned demons was contained and some time was saved, the night saber cavalry led by Korthello also arrived!
The combat power of the night saber cavalry is much stronger than that of the rangers. The nightsaber jumped up and pounced, its body stretched out, and its tail was at least three meters high, its physique was even stronger than that of a demon!

The demon who was thrown down needs to meet the sharp teeth of the roaring beasts and the moonblades wielded by the cavalry on them!

Three hundred cavalry commanding the leopards commanded the leopards, and within two or three minutes, with the cooperation of the rangers, they wiped out the two-winged demons who dared to raid the ranger troops.

At this time, the sword dancers and the demon army coming ahead have also collided!
Three hundred cavalry commanding the leopards commanded the leopards, and within two or three minutes, with the cooperation of the rangers, they wiped out the two-winged demons who dared to raid the ranger troops.
After receiving Colthello's order to take the initiative to attack, the seven or eight hundred sword dancers, under the command of the officer, rushed towards the approaching demon. What they are facing is a demon army that is much stronger than them physically and one-third larger in number!
At this time, the sword dancers and the demon army coming ahead have also collided!
The moment the two armies collided, the sword dancer suffered huge casualties. Under the hedge, the shortcoming of the sword dancer's slightly weak physical condition has been magnified to a large extent. There are very few sword dancers who can use their double swords to cause fatal damage to the demon at the moment of the collision, but even if the demon does not use fangs and sharp claws, relying on his strong body is enough to knock down the thin elf at the moment of collision on the ground.

This dealt a great blow to the sword dancers. At the moment when the two armies met, within a minute or two, at least hundreds of sword dancers were killed. The price paid by the devil is less than half of this figure.

But this does not mean that Korthello's previous order requiring the sword dancers to take the initiative to attack was wrong. On the contrary, if the thin elves, like at the beginning, kept their defensive formation and waited for the impact, then the situation they faced would only be worse than it is now.

When the two sides charge each other, the loss of the sword dancer is of course much greater than that of the enemy. But when entering the melee, the more sensitive skills and superb sword skills of the sword dancers can be more or less effective.

Of course, in the fierce battle of the demons, the sword dancers are still at a disadvantage due to lack of manpower, but at least, there is no sign of immediate collapse for the time being, and they can still fight a dozen.

On the other side, after resolving the attack of the two-winged horned demon, Korthello and the nightsaber cavalry led by him also found time to support the battlefield. When these giant leopards rode into the formation of the demons who were fighting the sword dancer, they really scattered the enemies a lot. At the same time, the ranger troops in the rear also regrouped, drew their longbows and threw arrows.

So far, Colthello can finally be considered to have resolved the crisis at the beginning of the battle. You know, when the war just started, he even thought that he was really going to be defeated.

The current situation is actually not very good, his troops are still fighting hard. Especially those middle-level demons among the demons, such as the barbed demon and the alchemist, are very powerful and pose a great threat to his troops.

Usually, one barbed demon is enough to deal with the siege of four or five sword dancers. These big guys whose left hand is replaced by a huge hard **** barb, and whose height can generally reach 2.5 meters, once hooked down, they are fierce, fast, and powerful. Whenever they are caught by the hook, a life is lost.

Not to mention the sword dancers, even the stronger nightsaber cavalry has no advantage against the barbed demon.

This point, Colthello has personally experienced. He rode a nightsaber and fought a barbed devil himself. Although, in the end, with his excellent skill, he cut off the head of the barbed demon with the moon blade, but the whistling hook still shocked him into a cold sweat, and even made him have more than one groan. had a near-death experience.
Not to mention the sword dancers, even the stronger nightsaber cavalry has no advantage against the barbed demon.
However, although the battle was more difficult, at least the overall situation of the battle has stabilized, and his troops no longer suffered a large number of casualties from being hit by demons like when the battle just started.

This battle lasted for fifteen minutes. During these fifteen minutes, his team was severely downsized, and at least three hundred people died in the battle. And the number of casualties of the demons on the opposite side was equal to them.
However, although the battle was more difficult, at least the overall situation of the battle has stabilized, and his troops no longer suffered a large number of casualties from being hit by demons like when the battle just started.
The situation is still very bad, and Colthello does not want to continue fighting at this casualty exchange ratio-that will mean that after eliminating the demon army in front of him, his alliance will also be directly defeated. Disabled, and had to withdraw from the battle sequence. This is absolutely unacceptable to him. He also wants to achieve greater military exploits in this war and get the rank of general in one fell swoop!

But retreat? The thought never crossed his mind. How could he be allowed to retreat in such an anxious battle? Doesn't this retreat mean exposing the back to those demons and sending them to kill them?

He can only continue to grit his teeth and lead the troops to fight, and hope that his troops will be more resilient and able to persist, so that they can play a more advantageous situation in the later stages of the battle.

Twenty minutes after the start of the battle, when the casualties of his troops increased to nearly 400 people, the reinforcements finally arrived!

Ordinary troops would never dare to throw arrows directly when friendly troops are still engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. That would undoubtedly be a murder of friendly troops.

But the elves dare, this is because they have absolute confidence in their archery! They are confident in their shooting skills, even if they miss the enemy, they will never shoot their own people.

Korthello commanded the night saber and threw down a horned demon in front of him before turning his head to take a look. I saw a heroic ranger captain galloping from the other side of the street with an army of thousands of people.
He was overjoyed, it was General Patience's adjutant, Colonel Pearl's troops! Six hundred elf rangers and an equal number of sword dancers are coming at a gallop as reinforcements!

Fifteen minutes later, the two alliances joined forces and finally repelled the attacking demons. The demons left hundreds of corpses on this battlefield, and the rest fled in a hurry.
