MTL - Bloodline Lord of War-Chapter 162 fight in the rain

  Chapter 162 Fight in the rain

The rain of arrows from the Rock City army fell on the walls of the Blood Clan Fortress. Immediately, there were many hobgoblin archers with arrows stuck in their chests, shoulders, thighs, and even their heads. However, there was not a single hobgoblin. The archer fell.

These blood warriors who have been bathed in the original blood have gained super vitality. Even if they are shot in the body, they still seem to be fine. Under the command of the hobgoblin officer, they continue to bend their bows and put arrows on the rock city army below the city. .

  A round of arrow rain fell into the army formation of Rock City, and immediately many soldiers fell to the ground from the arrows, lying in the muddy water and crying in pain.

  Before the army set off, the lords on the wasteland had unreservedly shared their information about the vampires, so Baron Lauren also knew that these vampire monsters were difficult to kill. But obviously, he still underestimated the terrifying vitality of the blood army.

   Seeing that the archer's counterattack had no effect, Baron Lauren cursed angrily: "These damned monsters!"

  He then ordered the army to speed up, as long as they rushed under the city wall and entered the dead angle of the archers' shooting, they could weaken the role of the enemy archers.

   "Army, speed up!"

  The low-level officers walking in the queue shouted the orders of Baron Lauren, and the Rock City army immediately began to accelerate and approach the blood fortress.

  After resisting another wave of hobgoblin archers' volley, the army of Rock City finally reached the wall of the Blood Clan Fortress and began to attack the gap in the wall. The armies of both sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

  The spearmen lined up in a neat square formation, and the spears in their hands formed a dense wall of spears, stabbing towards the wolf man army at the gap.

   The scimitar used by the Gnoll is a short weapon, and it is at an absolute disadvantage in a frontal confrontation with the spearmen. On the battlefield, sometimes a short distance is enough to determine the outcome of a battle.

As soon as the two sides came into contact, the rock city spearmen in the first row stabbed through, and immediately pierced through the blood gnolls in the first row on the opposite side. "Pu Chi Pu Chi" sounds, which makes people's scalp numb.

   Some spearmen were strong enough and pierced deep enough, even piercing the gnolls standing in the second row. A single spear pierced the two gnolls into skewers.

  Under the helmets of the spearmen, excited expressions appeared on their faces. The battle seemed simpler than they imagined. These gnolls stood motionless in front of them like a group of logs, waiting to be pierced by their spears.

But then, these spearmen realized that something was wrong. After they pulled out their spears from the body of the wolf man, the wolf man did not fall down, but waved the scimitar in his hand as if nothing had happened. to them.

   "Idiot! Stabbing the body won't kill these monsters, try stabbing their heads!"

The grassroots officers shouted anxiously in the queue, and the soldiers in Rock City suddenly recalled that before the battle began, the officers had indeed told them that they should try their best to attack the heads of the blood monsters, only in this way can they be completely killed .

However, fighting is actually a physical instinct. These veterans of Rock City have fought on the battlefield for many years, and their bodies have already formed a kind of muscle memory. Once they go to the battlefield, the tense atmosphere will make the soldiers' brains become one blank.

Therefore, most of the spearmen still relied on their previous fighting instincts, and took the lead in attacking the body where the jackals were most likely to be attacked. Only a few soldiers with brains still remembered what the officer said, and pierced the jackals with their spears human head.

  The Gnoll whose head was pierced by them fell down and never got up again.

Like a torrent of floods, the jackals threw themselves at the spearmen in Rock City recklessly. Some veterans with combat experience immediately launched a second attack and pierced the rushing jackals with their spears. However, some soldiers The reaction was half a beat slow, and the jackal threw himself in front of him.

  A jackal raised a sharp scimitar and slashed at the shoulder of a Rock City spearman, cutting off his entire right arm. But then, the Wolf man was also pierced through the body with spears by the soldiers on both sides.

  The spearman whose arm had been cut off let out a series of miserable howls, his spear fell into the wet grass, and the wound on his right shoulder kept gushing out blood. However, on the chaotic battlefield, every soldier must keep an eye on the enemy in front of him, and no one can help him.

  He fell to the ground, and the spearman behind immediately stepped forward, stepped over his body, and took his place.

The spearmen of Rock City fought together all the year round, and they cooperated quite tacitly. Two spearmen first supported the wolf man's body with their spears, and the third spearman saw the timing and immediately pierced the wolf man. head.

  However, not every kill on the Gnoll was so smooth.

The other spearman watched the wolf man pounce on him with his wolf mouth full of fangs. In his haste, he had no time to aim at the wolf man's head, so he could only instinctively throw his spear, and the sharp point of the spear pierced the wolf man. chest.

But this failed to stop the attack of the wolf man. The wolf man let the spear pass through his body. His eyes were blood red, and he let out a piercing wolf roar from his mouth. The spearman's neck.

  The gray sky was still raining continuously, and the rain mixed with blood, flowing down from the soldiers' armors.

   At the gap in the Blood Race city wall, the army of Rock City and the Blood Race gnolls fought together. Human soldiers and gnolls kept falling down. The muddy water under their feet was soon stained red with blood.

   On a mound on the side of the battlefield, Robin was riding on the back of a war horse, observing the dynamics of the battlefield attentively.

  The big and tall Simon stood beside him, also staring at the battlefield. After watching for a while, he said with some surprise: "I didn't expect these soldiers from Rock City to be quite capable of fighting."

Robin has a basic judgment on all the wilderness troops participating in the coalition. Among the wilderness coalition this time, except Earl Longji's own troops, Baron Lauren's army should be regarded as the most capable of fighting. This is why, Dragon The Earl of Ridge would pick Baron Lauren as the striker.

   Baron Lauren's army is not only well-equipped and has a high rate of armor, but more importantly, these soldiers are very energetic and have a strong will to fight.

  Robin heard that in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, Baron Lauren only selected soldiers from the families of free people, and all soldiers who made military exploits were rewarded very generously.

  The territory under the rule of Baron Lauren, the scale of Rock City is actually not small, so it should not be a big problem to easily recruit two or three thousand troops. However, the standing army of Rock City has been maintained at around 1,000 people all year round.

  This is related to Baron Lauren's concept of leading troops: rather shortage than excess. He kept the army small and fine. Although the size of the army is small, all of them are elites who have experienced battles.

Therefore, even in the face of the hard-to-kill blood gnolls, relying on better weapons and armor, close cooperation between fighters, and twice the enemy's strength, the army of Rock City still had an advantage and started Step by step, the Wolf man was pushed into the fortress.

The gap on the city wall is only about ten meters. Attacking from such a narrow place actually severely limited the combat effectiveness of the Rock City army. The army could not be fully deployed, so it could only be like adding fuel to the fortress bit by bit. Arch inside.

   Once the gap in the city wall is broken through, the army of Rock City can be fully deployed inside the blood fortress, better exerting their huge advantages in military strength.

  On the city wall, Kazan, the blood servant of the Duke of Blood, watched the battle below the city wall coldly, watching the battle lines on both sides slowly move towards the inside of the fortress, but no panic could be seen on his pale face. Because he still held a trump card in his hand that he didn't use, and that was the bear goblin army.

Although the bear goblin has the word goblin in its name, just like hobgoblins, they are completely different from goblins. Although many scholars firmly believe that bear goblins and goblins are related by blood, they are two kinds from the outside. different creatures.

  Goblin bears are generally close to three meters tall, with a big bear-like face, hideous and ugly, which is also the source of their name.

   They are tall, strong, and powerful enough to tear a goblin in half with their bare hands. Their skin is brownish-gray all over, and there is a dark mane growing on their backs like jackals.

The combat effectiveness of the bear goblins is very powerful, but inversely proportional to their combat effectiveness, the number of bear goblins is relatively very rare. Ordinary goblins are almost everywhere in the wasteland, and they have reached the point of flooding. I want to find a tribe of bear goblins. But it is equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack.

   Kazan watched the Gnoll retreat steadily, and he felt that it was time to play the Goblin Bear card, so he ordered: "Goblin Bear, go out!"

   The goblin bears stood behind the Gnoll camp. They watched the fight ahead, but nothing happened to them. These big guys were already impatient and stomped their feet anxiously.

  Received the order of Master Kazan, the thirty goblin bears roared immediately, and they raised the giant mace as tall as a person in their hands, and rushed into the chaotic battlefield.

   The violent bear goblins don't care about the life and death of the wolf man, and all the creatures that stand in front of them are regarded as enemies by them. After the goblin bears joined the battlefield, they first dealt the final fatal blow to the gnolls from behind. They charged together, and the gnolls standing in front of them were either knocked into the air or trampled to death.

   After breaking the Gnoll camp, thirty goblin bears rushed to the Rock City army.

The soldiers of Rock City had fought against bear goblins before, but each time it was only one or two, no more than five. This was the first time they had seen thirty bear goblins charge collectively, when such a big monster When they rushed in front of them, the oncoming sense of oppression made every soldier turn pale.

  With the addition of the bear goblins, the balance on the battlefield immediately began to tilt towards the blood race.

   In front of these giant monsters, the human soldiers looked very small, and the spears in their hands looked more like fragile bamboo poles.

   In terms of strength, the goblin bear has an overwhelming advantage. A goblin bear swung a giant mace violently, and there was a crackling sound, and all the spears in front of him were smashed immediately. Then the goblin bear took advantage of the situation and rushed into the army formation of Rock City, and the ensuing battle was almost a one-sided massacre.

The bear goblin casually waved the mace, and several soldiers would be sent flying by him. These poor Rock City soldiers experienced the feeling of flying for the first time in their lives. They flew high and fell heavily, just waiting for them to land At that time, an unknown number of bones on their bodies had been broken, and some soldiers even died on the spot.

It's not that the brave Rock City soldiers never thought of fighting back, but the goblin bears are wearing a thick layer of iron armor, and the goblin bears' skin is also very hard. It is difficult for spearmen to pierce their bodies, even if they pierce Yes, because these goblin bears are also blood warriors who have been bathed in original blood. They have vitality comparable to cockroaches, and they are also very difficult to kill.

In addition, due to the disadvantage of size, even though the spears in the hands of Rock City soldiers are nearly four meters long, the average height of the bears is close to three meters. If they want to reach the heads of the bears, they still have to get as close as possible to the bears. Only then, this immediately weakened the advantage brought by the length of the spear.

Thirty wild bears rushed into the army formation of Rock City, like thirty human tanks, rampaging in the army formation of Rock City, and were trampled to death by them, countless soldiers were crushed to death by mace, Rock City's army gradually couldn't stand it any longer and began to retreat slowly.

   Baron Lauren saw that his army was about to collapse, so he immediately rushed over with his personal guards and joined the battle.

  He spotted a goblin bear and galloped towards it on a horse. The fighting spirit in his body burst out, and the knight sword in his hand emitted a bright white light.

   When he rushed in front of the goblin bear, Baron Lauren jumped off his horse and flew towards the goblin bear. He raised the knight sword in the air with both hands, and split the goblin bear's head with his sword.

   With a loud bang, the goblin bear's huge body fell to the ground.

  The joining of the chief general immediately boosted the morale of the Rock City army, but this failed to change their overall decline.

   Baron Lauren had just killed a goblin bear. He stood up, but before he could feel complacent, another goblin bear rushed towards him.

  The goblin bear opened its big mouth full of fangs, swung the giant mace round with both hands, swept across, and slammed Baron Lauren hard.

   Baron Lauren raised his sword to resist, and with a sound of "dang", the mace hit his knight sword heavily, and immediately smashed out a handful of sparks.

   The goblin bear is a perverted power. Even if Baron Lauren used his grudge, it would be difficult to stop him, and he was immediately thrown into the air.
