Chapter 128 Sword and Crossbow Synergy (Please subscribe and give rewards)

Riding on horses, Rhodes brought Resarit and Kress to the battlefield.

Seeing Raymond's orderly command and proper tactics, Rhodes was also pleased with his growth. Only in this way can he become a general who can stand on his own in the future.

"Go ahead. Don't let the soldiers under your command underestimate us."

"Your order is my will!"

Rhodes, Resarit, and Kress squeezed their horses' bellies and gradually accelerated to rush over.

At this time, the dark swordsman troops had completed the exchange of defense with the crossbowmen troops. At this moment, the dark swordsman troops rushed into the town to destroy and kill everywhere.

At this time, there were actually some ancient orc archers on the walls of the White Stone Fortress, but the stone walls with a height of three or five blades were not enough to attenuate the attack power of the crossbow arrows. Therefore, as long as they dared to show up, the Rhodok crossbowmen under the city would focus their fire and instantly shoot these archers.

"Gee, gee!"

The packhorse was not running fast enough, but it was steady enough. Rhodes, wearing iron armor, holding a round steel shield in his left hand and a thunderous military hammer in his right hand, rode forward. The crossbowmen guarding the city gate naturally and quickly made way for their lord to enter the city. Resarit and Kress followed closely behind.

Resarit was also wearing black iron armor, which was light and highly defensive. Such equipment would certainly be loved by frontline soldiers. Although it was afraid of fire, Resarit still felt that this defect was nothing compared to its performance.

Although she was slashed by an ancient orc warrior in the previous battle at the sentry tower, she was not seriously injured because of the high defense of the black iron armor. After the battle, she was treated by Lord Rodhart's sacred fighting spirit, which was no longer a problem.

On the contrary, Kress suffered a more serious penetrating wound caused by the crossbow arrow. Fortunately, the crossbow arrow that hit her was bent, which reduced the attack power. But even so, Kress was still not allowed by Rhodes to use the spear because she was wearing a four-leaf clover necklace at this moment.

She held a round shield in her left hand and a sharp scimitar in her right hand (one-handed), and did not exert force explosively to avoid worsening the injury.

"Awoo awoo awoo awoo awoo!"

The three of them rode into the town inside the fortress, and when they cooperated with the offensive of the dark swordsman troops, several places in the town heard shrill wolf howls.

Then within the field of vision, you can see green-skinned ancient orcs riding huge gray-white giant wolves, running out to attack the dark swordsman troops.

"This is the wolf cavalry of the Hoffman Empire. The Hoffman Empire is also dominated by ancient orcs. The scale of the town here does not look like 200 people. 300 or even 400 people are also completely matched. If this place is fully developed, it will be a perfect outpost supply base for the Hoffman Empire."

Resarit was born in the Royal Military Academy and has read a lot of information and books from various countries, so he is very knowledgeable. At this moment, he saw all this in front of him and felt a chill in his heart for no reason.

Hoffman, one of the two major orc countries, has begun to extend its influence to the wilderness, while Styak is still singing and dancing, unaware of the danger.

The powerful ancient orc warriors cooperate with the ferocious wolf riders, and the combined combat power is very terrifying, with high mobility and high lethality.

As long as there are more than a dozen wolf riders, they can often complete a one-sided slaughter of the fifty or sixty human troops that have already dispersed.

But this time they encountered a strange opponent. Several wolf riders roared and cooperated, making several dark swordsmen lose sight of one another. One of the wolf riders suddenly rushed forward and cut down a dark swordsman with a knife. However, just as they cheered each other to boost their own morale and lower the enemy's morale, the dark swordsman patted his butt and stood up, seemingly not seriously injured.

Such a scene made the morale of the wolf riders drop instead.

Under normal circumstances, the heavier the armor a human warrior wears, the more he will be played around by the wolf riders. If he wears light armor, his defense will inevitably drop greatly, and he will die if he is cut.

However, this strange army seemed to have both the defensive power of the heavy-armored swordsman unit and the lightness, agility, and high adaptability of the light-armored swordsman unit.

Rhodes, Resarit, and Kress had already fought with the wolf riders at this time. Kress's riding skills were not good enough, and he could not suppress the packhorses he was riding to overcome their fear and approach the wolf riders, so he could only parry and had no chance to fight back.

Resarit's riding skills were not good enough either. He chose to dismount and walk into the dark swordsmen. During this process, a wolf rider rushed towards him blindly. Resarit seized the opportunity and swung his sword sideways, directly hitting the wolf with a heavy sword. The ancient orc knight fell down and was killed by Resarit's sword before he could get up. Then, no wolf rider dared to charge him easily again.

Resarit just didn't have much riding talent, but his fighting talent was not bad.

Among the three, no, four (including Raymond who was also a general), only Rhodes had enough riding skills to ride a packhorse to fight the ancient orc wolf riders.

However, no matter how good a person's riding skills were, the packhorse could not catch up with the wolf riders. Rhodes could only counter the attacks of the wolf riders around him. Just like Resarit, he also took advantage of a wolf rider to charge at him and swung a hammer at the opponent's face, knocking him down.

After losing its master, the wolf looked at Rhodes with blood splashing on his mask and wanted to continue attacking, but after thinking about it, he didn't dare to do it and ran away with his tail between his legs.

However, Rhodes had no way to deal with the other wolf riders who were on high alert.

However, as time went by, the number of ancient orc warriors in this ancient orc fortress decreased, and more and more Rhodok crossbowmen freed up their forces to support the front line.

No matter how mobile the wolf riders were, they could not be faster than the crossbows. If several Rhodok crossbowmen fired a volley, it would be fine if they missed. As long as they hit, both the wolf and the wolf rider would be killed directly.

In fact, there were many brave warriors in this ancient orc fortress, but they were suddenly attacked. There were women and children crying outside. Most of the ancient orc warriors rushed out with an axe, and then they were hacked to death by the dark swordsmen, or pierced through the body by the Rhodok crossbowmen.

How much tactical error cost and fuel tactical consumption can a small tribe with only two or three hundred people pay?

When the last brave ancient orc wolf rider was shot to death by arrows in a desperate charge, no other warriors rushed out of the crying fortress, because the only ones left were the elderly, children, disabled people and women cowards.

"Surrender, and I promise not to kill women and children." This world once popularized a common language. Therefore, when Rod, with blood soaking through his steel armor, rode forward and said this, the remaining ancient orcs could understand him.
