Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Chapter 659 The attack and defense of the camp under the moon

This deafening cry of killing was like a sharp broad sword, which immediately cut through the quiet moonlight.

It was like a blow, hitting everyone in the camp directly on the head, including the middle-aged staff officer.

Because all this happened so suddenly, the middle-aged staff officer, who still had a trace of disdain and contempt on his face, didn't wait for him to react.

Under the dark night, the sky was full of fire arrows, which were already falling from the sky.

These fire arrows are all blessed by the wind magician's spells, which greatly increases the range. Although this auxiliary spell requires a relatively long time to enchant and is almost impossible to use continuously.

But as a sharp weapon for the first wave of attacks, it is obviously perfect.

Among them, most of the arrows were shot from the direction of the forest flanking the camp. Although this natural line of defense could block the charge of the cavalry, it also became the best cover for the attackers.

As for the camp sentries who were originally guarding here, they had already fallen silently under the swords of the powerful attackers.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Along with the first wave of fire arrows, they roared down with lightning speed.

Suddenly, the guards and patrols outside the camp were pierced by sharp arrows and pinned directly to the ground, stirring up bursts of dust.

Some of those who were lucky enough not to be shot in the vital parts let out shrill screams because of the pain. The burning and tearing sensation caused by the hot arrows was obviously unbearable for these ordinary soldiers.

For a moment, the screams of the soldiers in the camp mixed with the shouts of killing outside the camp, and quickly spread in the huge and defenseless camp.

What made the soldiers even more frightened was that the arrowheads of these sudden arrows were also smeared with special combustion-supporting alchemy potions, causing the Juma and Luzhai surrounding the camp that were not covered by the anti-magic coating to burn rapidly, and billowing smoke immediately rose. rise.

Without this barrier, the camp obviously lost an important piece of protection!

"What's going on? Who is attacking us?"

After being horrified, the middle-aged staff officer looked panicked and couldn't help but blurt out.

"It's the horse-headed flag of Galloping City! The attackers are the Great Prince's cavalry regiment!"

A few guards who were lucky enough to survive at the gate of the camp ran back in a state of embarrassment and shouted loudly.

"Is it really Vince's cavalry regiment? How can those traditional nobles who have just suffered a defeat still have the courage to launch an attack?!"

The shock on the face of the middle-aged staff officer was beyond words, and he murmured to himself blankly: "Is it really the new Lord Kong Qing who started the trouble? He actually has such a terrifying ability to drive away tigers and devour wolves?!"

Just as the middle-aged staff officer was stunned.

The sleeping soldiers were all awakened by the shocking noise, and they rushed out of their tents in fear or confusion.

Due to the rush, most of the soldiers didn't even wear armor, just wearing thin shirts and underpants.

Facing outside the camp, there were heavily armed attackers and earth-shattering shouts of killing.

Although the middle and low-level commanders who were the first to react were trying their best to rally and comfort their soldiers, the atmosphere of panic was still uncontrollable and spread crazily in the camp.

A rapid and low siren sound sounded in the camp.

What followed was a calm and resonant voice: "We, the warriors of Gray Rock City, are overconfident enemies and are attacking our camp. They are trying to chop off our heads with ax blades, trying to use their weapons to attack us." The sword makes us surrender, but how can the Cold Flame Hunting Tiger be defeated by the Frost Sheep's attack?"

Needless to say, it was Marquis Eriton who spoke.

As the lord of a city and the commander of this legion, he naturally knew how to rekindle the fighting spirit of the soldiers under such extremely unfavorable conditions.

And as a fourth-level expert in the physics department, it was even easier for his rich voice to spread throughout the camp.

Although he did not think that these soldiers under his command, who were just stepping stones to power, had the qualifications to be compared with the noble himself, but in this crisis situation, he could not care so much.

"The enemy just punched first and tried to break our fighting spirit? That is their wishful thinking! How can a group of dismounted cavalry be the opponent of our infantry?"

"Warriors of Gray Rock City, pick up your sharp swords and pick up your long bows. Now that the enemy has arrived, it's time for me to have a happy hunt!"

After speaking, an extremely impressive momentum surged out from the animal skin tent. Eriton, wearing expensive armor and holding a colorful and flashing broad-blade sword, appeared in front of the panicked soldiers.

Seeing the general's appearance, the already low morale in the camp suddenly became high.

The soldiers armed with sharp blades and long bows had no time to dress up, but under the orders of their respective commanders, like hungry wolves, they rushed towards the defensive position of the camp.

"As expected of Lord Eriton!"

The middle-aged staff officer also had a look of reverence on his face, and he quickly rushed to Eriton's side.

"Let's set off. The direction of the forest must be the main attack position of the group of traditional noble bastards. Although the dark night is not conducive to the performance of the archers, as long as they hold on until dawn, the opponent will not be afraid."

Eriton nodded to the middle-aged staff officer and the other guards who had just gathered, and then galloped towards the edge of the camp in the direction of the forest.

In this short period of time, the attackers outside the camp poured more than a dozen waves of arrows into the camp one after another.

After those Juma and Luzhai were devoured by the fire, what followed was a large-scale charge from all directions.

The best way to deal with this Gray Rock City legion, which is famous for its long archers, is naturally hand-to-hand combat.

In the woods on the side of the camp, "Vince", who was surrounded by Clooney and the Guards, looked at the corpses of Gray Rock City patrol soldiers who had been silently assassinated and whose heads were almost missing not far away, and swallowed involuntarily. Foaming.

Transformed into Vince, Xiaoya was just an ordinary cook not long ago. She just lived the same life every day, serving plates to those rude drunkards who liked to brag, and occasionally heard some nasty things. It was obvious that he had never seen such a bloody scene before.

Quickly looking away, Xiaoya's pounding heart suddenly felt relieved after Lei Xiao's tall figure emerged in her mind.

It is precisely because of the Lord, she, the tavern cook in Gelin City, has the opportunity to see the vast world!

"Even if I do nothing every day and just practice hard and follow the rules without any resources, I will probably have to be at least thirty or forty years old before I can break through to the level of a third-level powerhouse in one fell swoop."

Xiaoya took a deep breath of the blood-filled air and thought to herself: "But now, with the great training of the lord, not long after I passed the adult ceremony, I have reached the peak level of the third level! Magic potion! The gold dragon equivalent to the equipment even reaches tens of millions! How can I not help you with such a great kindness?"

Just when Xiaoya's mood gradually calmed down and she burst into tears of gratitude to Lei Xiao.

I saw Clooney coming up and bowing to report: "Sir Vince, the general attack has begun. According to your instructions, except for the side of the opponent's camp near the lake, the remaining three sides of the camp are all invested separately. The two brigades launched a fierce attack at the same time, and each had a reserve brigades waiting for the opportunity."

"Well done. Are the elite magicians who are good at explosive magic ready? Be sure to open a hole on all three sides and engage in melee combat with the opponent so that they cannot take advantage of the archers' advantage."

"Vince" nodded and said calmly: "The other party must think that relying on the forest, we will only focus on one direction, but this Marquis wants to do the opposite."

All of this is naturally Lei Xiao's arrangement. Only in this way can the strength of the two be weakened to the greatest extent.

"As expected of Sir Vince, according to your plan, everything is under control."

Clooney chuckled and responded quickly: "As you expected, these newly promoted noble soldiers who thought they were safe and sound were really stunned!"

"Very good. Go ahead and attack with all your strength. The first group to break into the enemy camp will be heavily rewarded."

"Vince" waved his hand casually, and then said: "Let the other party see it. Although we are a cavalry corps, our infantry combat capabilities are still not inferior to any infantry corps."

"As you command, my great Lord Vince!"

Chief loser Clooney took the order and went about his business.

…

Under the moonlight night, accompanied by earth-shattering shouts of killing, mixed with the sound of armor clashing and heavy footsteps, the entangled sound resounded throughout the sky.

The charging cavalry legionnaires wearing knight armor, already holding knight swords and throwing spears, rushed to the wooden fence of the camp.

Although they were scattered in three different directions of the camp, the densely packed scene of nearly 10,000 soldiers charging together was still extremely spectacular.

As the earth trembled, even the lake on the side, which was originally as calm as a mirror, began to ripple with water ripples.

"Get rid of these scoundrels of the new nobles. These upstarts, like the lords of other worlds, have no right to stay in this sacred land!"

I saw the middle-aged cavalry captain from before, with a cold face full of murderous intent. First he threw a spear and stabbed two defenders on the archery tower who were setting their bows and arrows, and then raised his arms. chanted.

Since the original guards around the camp had been wiped out by the sudden rain of arrows and spears, only a few defenders were still making the final resistance.

At the same time, high-pitched chanting sounded.

A group of crimson robed magicians protected by cavalry, holding their staffs high, fire energy particles surged around them.

As the spell became louder and louder, a giant crimson magic circle with a diameter of about two meters appeared on the wooden fence in front of it, which was flickering with light. It slowed to an extreme and began to rotate rapidly.

This scene immediately attracted the attention of the Gray Rock City defenders who had just arrived for support.

I saw a third-level long archer captain bearing the brunt of the attack. He easily jumped onto the archery tower filled with corpses. He first sidestepped to avoid an incoming spear, then twisted two feather arrows in his hand, and with lightning speed, The long bow in his hand was fully drawn.

"Double arrow explosion!"

A loud shout was heard, and two whistling sharp arrows passed through the knights guarding the surroundings, accurately hitting the abdomen of two red-robed magicians who were casting spells with their eyes closed.

The huge impact caused these two unlucky guys with weak bodies to fly away without even having time to grunt. The rapidly rotating arrows directly turned their stomachs into a ball of paste. .

"How brave, how dare you face the difficulties!"

Seeing the death of both precious elite magicians, the murderous look on the face of the middle-aged cavalry captain became more intense. He took the two lances handed over by the cavalry next to him, and a good wave of energy rippled out from his body.

"Twin meteors!"

The cavalry captain waved his left and right arms at the same time with bulging veins, and the two spears dragged their long tails and shot at the longbow commander at high speed.

Sensing the approaching threat, the long archer commander who succeeded in his attack did not dare to neglect and immediately jumped down from the conspicuous archery tower.

However, despite dodging the two deadly spears that passed over his head, the moment he landed, his right shoulder was grazed by a swaying arrow, leaving a deep red blood mark.

The small contest between these two rival third-level warriors was just a small episode on the battlefield. It caused almost no ripples and was immediately covered up by the shouts of killing from the soldiers around them.

In a moment, despite the efforts of the defenders who had just arrived to stop them, the remaining red-robed magicians successfully completed the blasting spell.

boom! boom! boom!

A series of violent explosions sounded, and thick smoke filled the air.

A large number of wood fragments were scattered in all directions, causing many soldiers from both sides dozens of meters away to be hit and fell to the ground, struggling to get up.

Although these wooden fences are coated with anti-magic coatings, they can withstand ordinary fires and fireballs, but they have extremely poor resistance to this kind of blasting magic.

When the thick smoke dissipated, a large hole six to seven meters long had been torn open in the strong wooden fence.

"Come in and kill all the henchmen of these new nobles!"

The middle-aged cavalry captain looked happy, the knight sword in his hand flashed with cold light, and he rushed over at the lead.

However, the reaction speed of the defenders was faster. A large number of heavy infantry who had no time to wear heavy armor and only held heavy shields and hand axes were already standing at the door, forming a steel defense line.

Behind them, there were rows of spearmen holding long spears, ready to harvest the lives of their opponents in the gaps.

The defenders had just stood still when the middle-aged cavalry captain and other cavalrymen rushed forward, waving their swords in their hands.

The crisp sound of weapons clashing sounded, and the hand-to-hand combat began.

Heavily armed cavalry were seen holding sharp blades, constantly attacking the heavy infantry defense line.

However, the defenders who specialized in infantry warfare obviously cooperated more closely, resulting in a large number of cavalry being killed by sharp axes and spears.

The cavalry's two-legged charge continued.

Although it had little effect at first, as the defenders' formation gradually tore apart, many heavy infantrymen began to fall to the ground screaming one after another.

After all, most of these heavy infantrymen didn't have time to wear armor, and the heavy shields in their hands obviously couldn't give them all-round protection.

Since both sides were full of fighting spirit, as soon as the soldiers in the front row fell, they were immediately replenished by the soldiers in the back row.

As the bright red blood mixed with the soil spread freely on the ground, the battle began to become more intense.
