Lord of War

47. Unexpected and unexpected

The 30,000 skeleton cavalry, under the command of Adrozo, surged forward like water breaking a dike.

The billowing white tide was divided into two streams, and then rushed towards the bone stairs built on the left and right city walls, just like a rushing river encountered a blocked reef and then flowed to both sides. But the meaning of being desperate, devouring everything, and destroying everything has not weakened in the slightest.

All the skeleton mages withdrew from the attack route of these skeleton cavalry. Only the skeleton archers and skeleton archers still stood in front of the front line, maintaining the suppression of the fortress wall, but they also stood on the route of the skeleton cavalry's charge.

Without the slightest hesitation or pause, all the skeleton cavalry directly ran over these skeleton archers.

Or rather, run over.

A large number of skeleton archers were immediately smashed into countless bone fragments, splashing everywhere. And even the skeleton archers ended up like this, not to mention the skeleton soldiers and skeleton warriors who were only consumed as materials. Almost everything the skeleton cavalry went along the way was knocked down under its violent impact. It became countless bone fragments.

On the fortress, everyone can clearly see this scene.

"The charge has begun!" Levi let out a light drink.

"Injury situation." Abaza remained calm, ordered all the steel wing soldiers to quickly return to their positions, and reported the damage to the impact shield.

"A total of 4,000 shock shields cannot be activated." The steel winged soldier at the defense line on the left quickly said, "The defense line can still be maintained."

"My side is similar. But it is still no problem to maintain the defense line." The steel wing soldier on the right line of defense also interjected.

Because acid rain is not torrential rain, the damage to the impact shield is not particularly troublesome, which also makes the impact shield that resists do not need to be replaced frequently, and can last for a longer combat time. In addition, in the end Cecilia counterattacked forcefully with her personal magic power, interrupting the operation of the entire acid rain magic circle. Although this caused her a lot of wear and tear, it did reduce the damage that the entire steel wing needed to bear.

Afterwards, Abaza quickly issued a series of combat orders, and the 8,000 steel-winged soldiers who lost their shock shields directly retreated to the rear, and another 8,000 steel-winged soldiers under the city wall quickly stepped forward to replace them. The 20,000 soldiers with steel wings in the rear also went back to the temporary military supply department to replace their equipment, and then came back to stand by, ready to go to the front line for replacement work at any time.

Because after the charge of 30,000 skeleton cavalry, there was an attack of 100,000 undead skeletons. These are real skeleton soldiers, and they have reached the fourth or fifth rank, not just the first or second rank. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, these Skeleton Warriors and Skeleton Warriors are already equivalent to the real fourth- and fifth-level legions, and can basically be counted as the same standard as Iron Wings and Thunder Lions, especially when the enemy still has a numerical advantage , which had to mobilize all legions in the entire fortress.

Not only the other 20,000 Iron Wing soldiers, but also the Thunder Lion, Cecilia Guards, Black Wing, etc., were ordered by William to mobilize, ready to go up the city wall and confront the enemy at any time. The only ones that have not received the mobilization order are the four legions: Rena's First Cavalry Regiment, Angel's Frost Legion, and the Condemned Wings Legion that Levi is now in charge of and the priests brought by Sefanio.

The First Cavalry Regiment is due to the small number of people, only a thousand people. On the battlefield where the two sides can be said to have directly invested nearly 250,000 people,

This number of people is simply a wave. And the Frost Legion is because it belongs to Angel's private legion, William is not qualified to give orders, even if there is William, he does not want to take over the command, because Angel is also an excellent general, and her understanding of the Frost Legion is far better than anyone , so she is more aware of the best time for Frost Legion to fight.

As for the Condemned Wings, this is a very unique legion.

Although his establishment size is only 10,000, the source of soldiers is composed of real elite soldiers from Iron Wings, Thunder Lions, Black Wings, Silver Temple Legion, and Cecilia Guards. A truly elite division that is close to the standard of the sixth-level legion. They are good at a wide range of combat fields, but as the only ace legion in the Duchy of the Void, William has extremely high expectations for this legion, so he doesn't want to waste it in this war.

The same is true for the priest battle group: the strength of the priests is not particularly strong, and it is uneven, and the number is only a hundred or so. So they are also arranged at the end, ready to cooperate with the Wings of Condemnation. After all, the recovery of divine power is not comparable to the spirit and magic power of a magician. It only needs to meditate, and divine power needs to be recovered slowly through continuous devout prayers. of.

According to Levi's understanding of the Undead Army, he clearly told William that within forty-eight hours after the appearance of the Undead Vanguard, there will definitely be at least one fully prepared regular army combat sequence of the Undead Army arriving on the battlefield. The so-called regular army sequence refers to those undead legions composed of non-skeleton cannon fodder such as black warriors and black knights, and the complete establishment will definitely have at least 100,000 cavalry, more than 300,000 infantry, and a large-scale army. There will even be hundreds of thousands of ghoul-level cannon fodder.

In the absence of reinforcements, even William felt weak to defend the Wild Fortress with the current size of the defenders in the Wild Fortress.

But no matter how weak he is, he must defend this fortress.

Therefore, try to ensure that there are available soldiers under his command as much as possible, and then rely on the advantage of the city to defend the city. This is the only plan William can think of. It can even be said that all the generals present could only come up with exactly the same combat tactics as William after listening to the size of the regular army of the Undead Legion described by Levi.

The combat sequence of the regular army is completely different from that of cannon fodder.

There were three legions that Lake sent to the Golden Left before, but only one was deployed by the regular army, and it was not a complete formation, just remnants. The other two legion leaders were only temporarily leading the vanguard, mainly to collect materials and rush to the battlefield. .

Unfortunately, because of Xiao En's troubles and miscalculation of the background of the Millennium Covenant Empire, all three legions have been buried-the soul of the legion leader is not an ordinary soul, and death means complete annihilation. An easy thing to do. Even if it was Lake, the corpse invasion brought only twelve souls of the legion commanders. Three of them were destroyed in the previous battle. Distressed.

William didn't know about this, and he didn't care too much about it. His idea was very simple. The Condemnation Wing was the final trump card, and it should be played last. If the Thunder Lion can't be allowed to go up in front, the Thunder Lion can't be allowed to go up. If the steel wings can really block it, then let them all block it.

Just look at it now.

William shook his head helplessly. He knew that the steel wings alone would not be able to stop him, and he probably had to pull another troop into battle.

The replacement of troops on the city wall of the fortress has been completed, and the skeleton cavalry in front has officially stepped on the nearly fifty-meter-long bone ladder. Perhaps in a few seconds, the two sides will start a real hand-to-hand combat.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, the defenders still have a big advantage.

Skeleton cavalry are thrusters, and the power they need to consume and the danger they need to face are multiplied; while the steel wings have shock shields specially used to deal with cavalry.

Abaza grinned grimly: "Stand up!"

All the soldiers with steel wings raised their shields in front of them in an instant, shielding the ground fiercely, and then only heard a muffled "click", and the spikes hidden in the shields immediately hit the city wall. This method of erecting a shield, Iron Wings has trained countless times, so it is obvious that 30,000 Iron Wings soldiers are standing up to erect the shield, but the sound of nails hitting the city wall seems to be only one sound, the only thing that remains the same But it shook like an earthquake.

If you want to build a fortress, you can't talk about it casually. Generally, you need very special materials to cooperate. At the very least, the construction of the walls of the fortress cannot be built with ordinary materials. After all, there is an eighth-level earth magic in elemental magic: a big earthquake. A strong earthquake of the magnitude earthquake, if the fortress walls are not mixed with special materials to build resistance, a large earthquake is enough to destroy a fortress.

Therefore, the construction of the fortress, the city wall is the top priority, and the materials selected must be the best and the most stable. As for the destruction of other buildings in the fortress, it doesn't matter, as long as there is still a geographical advantage to defend.

And like the Tonis Fortress, the architectural pattern in the fortress is arranged into a magic circle through a special layout, so that the entire fortress and even the entire mountain range are free from the vibration of the earth magic. At present, there is only one in the entire Miracle Continent. .

Therefore, although the impact shield spikes of the steel wings will cause some damage to the city wall of the fortress, at least they will not damage the foundation of the entire city wall. Unless the undead army has some powerful siege equipment to destroy the city wall by physical means, otherwise it will not be so easy to be destroyed for a while.

After the pegs were laid, the real trump card of Iron Wings was finally revealed.

Continental barrier!

A strong momentum like a solid wall rises from the Iron Wing Legion.

That is the power of the law.

That is a law that belongs to the rules.

A special law that should not appear in the legion has actually taken shape at this moment.

For ordinary people, it may not be seen at all. But for those who have stepped into the sanctuary realm, they can tell at a glance that the so-called aura rising from the body of the steel wings is simply the addition of the power of law.

But the only ones who can really sense the belonging of this law are the legendary powerhouses present.

sturdy.

Belonging to the law of protection and protection is one of the core laws of the world, and it belongs to the same level of law as the laws of time and space.

In the eyes of the legendary powerhouse, it was as if a diamond-shaped crystal barrier emerged from Iron Wing's body, and one grid after another was quickly put together to form a huge barrier, with bright brilliance shining on it.

This is the power of the embodied law that only legendary powerhouses can see. But only the direct descendant of the god, Xuefanio, knows where the projection of this crystal-like barrier comes from—it is a position that protects the entire plane from being eroded by the power of the void storm Facing the crystal wall!

Before turning on the shock shield, the steel wings were only a fifth-level army.

But after turning on the shock shield, Iron Wings is a peak sixth-level army, and it can even be regarded as a quasi-level seven.

The only flaw is that after the impact shield is activated, the steel wings cannot move at all.

"Impossible!" Edrozo, who was charging, might not be able to see the projection of the crystal wall of this plane, but he could feel the power of the powerful law of protection, but he couldn't figure out why the weapon in front of him Ordinary troops were able to mobilize the power of the law, so he let out an exclamation.

"Impossible!" The one who exclaimed was the skeleton far away from the main battlefield, but he was not as surprised as Ed Rozo, because he had already seen that the changes in the steel wings came from them. The black shield in his hand, as well as the pride that belongs to him, "Unexpected. It's a pity...it's a pity..."

What this skeleton is pitying, no one knows.

But Ed Rozzo knew very well that at this moment, he had no way to order the whole army to stop charging and retreat.

Once the cavalry's charge starts, it is like sailing against the current, but once they stop moving forward, it is not retreat, but death.

As a fallen person, Adroso urgently needs a victory to prove his worth and ability, so there is today's war. But now, the enemy suddenly had something he didn't expect. Although he was inexplicably horrified, Adroso still had no thoughts or thoughts to retreat.

The charge of the skeleton cavalry became more fierce.

Thirty meters.

ten meters.

The short distance is only a moment for the cavalry in charge.

The next moment, like a waterfall against the current, the skeleton cavalry on the left and right slammed into the front of the defense line of the steel winged army that was projected by the power of the crystal wall of the plane.

Unsurprisingly, the cavalry who collided at the front couldn't break through the line of defense at all.

Not to mention breaking through the line of defense, it was impossible to even make the lineup of Iron Wings retreat half a step. But the effect of force is mutual, since you can't break the formation successfully, then the force you exert will naturally bounce back. As a result, almost without exception, the skeleton cavalry at the forefront of the charge were all shaken out of piles of minced meat, and black blood and stench filled the air.

The only exception is Ed Rozo.

Although he led the charge in the lead, he did not die because of this charge, but he was still slightly injured, but it was not serious. But the cavalry behind him, who were constantly charging, didn't have such good luck. They almost died after the charge. At least one-third of the cavalry were directly buried under this charge, and the rest Two-thirds of them were already dizzy even if they were not dead, unable to continue charging at all.

In this way, the camouflage illusion imposed on these fallen people is naturally unable to continue.

In front of everyone, the figures of these cavalrymen were quickly exposed: they were black cavalry in black armor, holding black spears and wearing black knives, but their facial features were ferocious and painful, and their eyes were full of despair. Yes, unwilling.

"Not Skeleton Cavalry!"

"This is... what the hell!"

"Are these the Black Knights?"

"Isn't the Black Knight the regular combat order of the undead army?"

Among the crowd, there were exclamations one after another, and no one expected that the skeleton cavalry who came to attack were not skeleton cavalry. And unlike those cavalry enemies in the past, after these black armored cavalry failed to charge, only one-third of them died due to the shock force. You must know that once the steel wings put down the impact shield before, how many cavalry charged would die How many cavalry.

This kind of result is the first encounter in this life, but everyone soon realized that this cavalry unit has a very strong combat effectiveness, and it can compete with the steel wings that have opened the shock shield. The strength of this army is at least Is it even?
