Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 69 Breaking the City

In the dark night, the archers of Volantis were even worse than the elf archers of the Hinterlands. Their racial talent made the elves see night as day, and they could still accurately shoot the guards on the city wall.

In contrast, the gatekeepers on the city wall could only shoot blindly at the pitch-black ground, and their hit rate, which was already mediocre, dropped to freezing point at this moment, basically causing no major casualties to the Terra army.

Knowing that the eyesight of the elves must be inferior at night, the generals defending the city immediately asked the soldiers to hang torches on the battlements. Otherwise, the defenders would not even know where the enemy had set up the ladders.

However, there was still a group of soldiers who climbed onto the city wall without the defenders noticing. This group of soldiers were dressed in pitch-black robes and black turbans, and even their shields and weapons were painted black. In this way, by night, the enemy could not find them before lighting the torches.

But time was running out, and Terra did not have that much time to make black paint, so there were only a few such troops, but they were enough. They successfully opened up the situation for the Terra army on the city wall, occupying a large area and For the Terra army to climb the wall.

An anxious tug of war unfolded, and the two armies continued to compete for positions on the city wall, but Terra was very determined this time, determined to decide the winner tonight, and they did not choose to retreat without taking it in a short period of time as before. Instead, he continued to climb up the city wall and rushed towards the city gate organ.

There was fierce competition on the city wall, and soldiers gathered on the city wall continuously, so the defense inside the castle naturally relaxed a lot. Seeing the words displayed on the magical object in his hand, the Hinterland mage who was waiting in the secret room at the end of the secret passage immediately waved his hand to signal the soldiers to rush out of the secret passage.

Opening the door of the secret room, the soldiers who were already ready to go quickly rushed into the castle through the gate, and the soldiers in the secret passage also climbed up the ladder one by one to enter the secret room, and then followed the soldiers in front to rush out of the secret room.

The soldiers of the assault team quickly occupied the entire corridor, and the noise they made attracted some patrolling guards to come, but it was too late, and more than half of the soldiers of the assault team had already rushed out of the secret room.

After killing two groups of guards who came, the leading officer of the raiding team scanned around, confirmed the current location, waited until all the members came out of the secret passage, closed the door of the secret room and rushed towards the gate of the castle.

Knowing that the castle has entered the enemy, the guards have gathered in the hall in front of the castle gate and waited in formation. When the assault team saw the enemy army waiting in full battle, the soldiers in the first row immediately raised their shields, hid their short swords behind the shield, and rushed towards the enemy army quickly.

The two armies handed over, and the shields collided with each other. Immediately afterwards, the assault team stabbed the short sword hidden behind the shield, and pierced the enemy's body against the gap in the shield. Under the pain, the enemy's strength was loosened, and the formation was quickly broken up by the assault team that had been pushing forward.

After some entanglement, the raiding team killed all the enemy troops protecting the castle gate, randomly opened the castle gate and rushed into the city. There was chaos outside, the enemy soldiers were still transporting arrows, stones and other materials, and many soldiers rushed to the city wall with long swords under the command of the officer.

The night and chaos ensued, and the enemy army failed to detect the raiding party rushing out of the castle for a while. The raiding team officer quickly looked around to confirm the situation, and led the raiding team to the direction of the city gate at random.

The raiding team was divided into two, one part rushed into the gate opening to open the chains and baffles of the inner gate, and the rest rushed up the city wall to attack the enemy from behind, cutting off the enemy's link, so that the enemy currently in the tower was lost by the enemy. support.

Halfway through the rush, the enemy finally found the raiding team and immediately sent soldiers to stop them, but the raiding team ignored them and rushed towards their target in a dull manner. After paying some casualties, they finally arrived at their destination.

In the doorway, the raiders separated out the troops who were in charge of cutting the iron chain and opening the baffle, and the rest formed a formation to stop the enemy army on the periphery.

Another group of raiders rushed up the city wall along the stairs. Some of them were responsible for intercepting the enemy troops who followed up on the city wall, and the other part rushed forward with the raid team officers and attacked the enemy from behind.

A sword chopped down an enemy soldier from behind, and another enemy soldier's head was strangled with one hand, and the other hand waved a dagger to cut off his throat. Only after the enemy soldier on the city wall realized that his ass had been stolen.

Under the enemy's front and back, the enemy quickly lost control of the tower, although the raiders responsible for intercepting suffered heavy casualties.

The mechanism was raised little by little, and Ronan and the others who were waiting outside the city suddenly became energetic, clenched the lance in their hands, and waited for an order to charge.

"The city wall has fallen!" The enemy suddenly shouted heart-piercingly. The rest of the enemy troops withdrew from the city wall one after another and formed a formation in the open space in front of the castle inside the city. At this time, Jino rode a horse and stood at the rear of the team to command.

"Stand up your shields, idiots, raise your spears! Stand tight, stick to your posts, and don't let those Terran bastards rush in!" Jino ordered the infantry to form a spear formation, while organizing elite forces to try to take back the city gate.

If he can't close the city gate, today may be his end. The Terran army was twice as numerous as the Volantene army, and even with the advantages of the city's terrain, it was impossible to win the battle.

Lowering his body, Ronan stared closely at the direction of the city gate. The outer gate has been fully opened, and now the wooden inner gate is missing.

After a while, when the atmosphere of the cavalry became more and more tense, the city gate finally opened slowly inward. The surrounding soldiers cheered, and then launched a charge under the horn of an all-out attack.

Ronan was also very excited, holding his lance tightly and rushed in following the cavalry in the front row. As cavalry, they had to rush through the gates in the first team to open the situation for the following infantry.

The horse trotted up and slowly accelerated. Ronan was wearing a full-body plate armor and holding a lance tightly against the horse's back. As the distance got closer, the speed of the cavalry became faster and faster, rolling up a billow of smoke and dust in the dark night.

The formation of the cavalry slowly changed into a sharp cone formation, and the cavalry in the first row could almost see the frightened eyes of the soldiers in the first row of the enemy under the helmets.

In the face of this level of cavalry charge, the soldiers in the first row of them are almost certain to die. Some of them want to escape, but there are enemy troops ahead, blocked by other soldiers on the left and right, and dead top soldiers behind them. The shields of the soldiers living in the rear row, they have no way to go, they can only face death in fear.

Soon, the cavalry rushed into the enemy's formation, the screams of humans, the roar of war horses, the sound of armor cracking, the sound of spears breaking, all kinds of sounds intertwined together, forming the tragic scene in front of them .
