The city gate was slowly opened, and the successful cavalry returned in triumph. Several accompanying magicians were also unable to hide their joy. The surprise attack this morning allowed the cavalry to destroy dozens of siege instruments, and the magicians directly turned a building camp of the undead army into a sea of fire with flame magic.
The adjutant in the command room reported loudly with the war report: "Sir, the raid was very successful. Only four cavalry soldiers on our side were slightly injured, and no one was killed."
The general in charge of defending the city nodded, took over the report and looked at it carefully. For a moment, the general's eyes showed a dignified look in addition to full y ì I. according to the returned cavalry report, although the raid was successful, the undead outside the city had unexpected combat ability. These undead were not as stiff and slow as the low-level undead in the past, During the fight, several cavalry soldiers found that these skeletons and Zombies moved quickly. What's most surprising is that many undead still retained some of their previous fighting methods and knew about swordsmanship and guns. Fortunately, the cavalry were equipped with solid armor, so the broken weapons in the undead's hands could not pose a direct threat, However, if the group fights on a large scale, these powerful undead may break out unimaginable destructive power.
The general put down the report in his hand. He was not a magician, nor did he know the Necromancer's magic. According to the introduction of some mages who helped defend the city, the low-level necromancers should be mindless puppets. They can only cut people mechanically and rely on the control of the necromancer. These low-level necromancers should not know any martial arts and tactics. But the description in the report is quite the opposite.
After putting down the report, the general motioned for the cavalry to have a good meal as a reward for the success of the raid. Then the general asked the accompanying mages to use magic J ì x ù to monitor the whereabouts of the dead outside the city. In the picture of monitoring magic, more and more dead outside the city have surrounded the whole city, Fortunately, there are enough grain reserves in the city to support the siege for ten and a half days. At the same time, thanks to these brainless bones in the water source, they don't seem to know how to cut off the canal in the southeast of the city, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, the reinforcements will arrive in one and a half days, And there's another good news. The leading force of the reinforcements, Lord gagneron, the famous sea blue knight in the Barreca Kingdom, will lead the knights to arrive at noon today.
A well-equipped order of 700 people. Plus the great fighting power of Lord cannillon. It is not difficult to resist the dead until all the reinforcements arrive.
Let's do it for the time being!
The general motioned to stop the spell and rubbed his sleepy eyes because he couldn't sleep these days: "I'll take a nap for a while. If there is an emergency, wake me up immediately."
"Yes, sir!" The adjutant made a military salute.
At the water intake of Granada, a huge pool has been built to store urban water. The river outside was opened, a tributary was dug out and a water gate was built to control the amount of water flowing into the city. On weekdays, many citizens come here to fetch water. Today, there are many more soldiers and security forces responsible for maintaining order at the water intake. After being besieged by the dead, there was a rumor that the dead wanted to cut off the water source in the city, which led many citizens who did not know the truth to come to take a large number of water for storage, resulting in serious confusion at the water intake point. When the city officials learned about the situation, l ì K è began to refute the rumor and arrested those who maliciously spread the rumor and severely punished them.
Of course, officials still attach great importance to the rumor that the dead want to cut off the water source. Therefore, it is not that the scouts are assigned to hide in the river outside the city to monitor the actions of the dead army. If the undead is found to have cut off the water source or poisoned in the water, the city can also make corresponding disposal immediately. But fortunately, according to the scouts' return these days, the dead of the besieged city seem not to cut off the water source d ǎ Su à n, not even a dead soul came near the river bank, and the water source in the city is basically guaranteed.
At noon, when the cooking smoke rises, the advance knights from the king's capital arrive on time. The arrival of the Knights has greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers and people guarding the city. From the initial panic to the gradual calm, almost no one in the public has paid attention to the dead outside the city. Even if the dead attack immediately after the arrival of the knights, The main force of the royal capital's army can be welcomed in one day. With the number of soldiers and militias in the city, plus fortifications and advance knights, no one will think that the dead can attack the city in one day.
"Welcome, Lord cannillon!"
The leader of the knights, Ganelon, the leading and strongest man in the kingdom of Barreca, took off his helmet and shook hands with the general guarding the city: "it seems that those bone shelves have not launched an attack yet."
“h ē h ē~ Although these undead did not launch an offensive, we raided them once. " The general also said with a smile that the overall situation was almost settled when the Knights arrived.
Accompanied by the general, the sea blue knight ganilon boarded the city wall and looked at the camp of the undead army in the distance. The actions of these undead people felt suspicious. Originally, when ganilon received an emergency order and learned that Granada was surrounded by a sudden undead army, geganilon, as an advance force, LED the knights to rush to the camp, I thought I was going to have a fierce battle with the dead after arriving, but I found that those bone shelves spent more than two days digging holes and building siege equipment outside the city. The Knights even entered the city without any obstruction, and it was just in time for lunch.
I have to say this is really a strange thing that people don't know how to describe! Are these bone shelves outside the city fighting or frightening and then rolling back there!?
Looking at this strange confrontation, Ganelon, who had fought on many battlefields, couldn't figure out what the undead Army wanted to do: "let's do it first for the time being. They don't attack the city, so wait until the main force of the army arrives, and then we will counter encircle and suppress these undead."
Having said that, ganillon still asked the general to strengthen the alert in the city. This situation is too strange. If the operator of the undead army is not a layman who knows nothing about the military, the operator behind the Ji ù sh ì undead must have some evil plans. In any case, it's always good to strengthen the city's security. Anyway, the reinforcements can arrive in more than one day. At that time, the situation of each other on the battlefield will be exchanged.
In the evening, cannillon had a pleasant dinner with the garrison officers and generals in the city. The members of the Knights under cannillon also had a good meal. After all, on the way here, the members of the whole Knights ate dry food and meat all the way. Now it's not easy to have some free time. A delicious hot meal is naturally a good way to improve morale b(nf ǎ。
Outside the city, there was still no movement of the dead army until dusk. It just increased its troops and built all kinds of equipment as usual.
Ganillon stood on the tower and looked at the blue ocean like a torrent in the distance. Although the number seemed huge, the army composed of low-level undead could tear a big gap in it in one round under the charge of the Knights. The only regret is that the ordinary human army may have collapsed in the face of this attack, But the undead without emotion may close the gap and surround the knights who burst into it.
Touching his beard, ganillon thought about these problems. The opponent in front of him is not flesh and blood humans. He needs K to face inhuman monsters ǎ ol ǜ To many things.
"Well, I always feel a little sleepy." Suddenly, a sense of tiredness surged into his heart, and gagnilon patted his forehead to refresh himself a little.
It seems that the dead didn't launch an attack tonight D ǎ Su à n, more and more tired, ghanilon also turned and returned to the castle. The sea blue knight didn't take off his armor, so he lay down on the sofa and rested. The members of the knights who arrived here are also in a state of rest. Anyway, after tonight and tomorrow noon Zu ǒ The main force of the Y ò u army will arrive. At that time, it can encircle these undead with the army and bury the dead who desecrated the field of the living in the earth at one fell swoop.
Sense n ǎ Od à I more and more dizzy, Ganelon gradually fell asleep after telling the waiter
In the middle of the night, Ganelon's forehead kept sweating, the sea blue knight sobbed, and his limbs began to twitch abnormally. Until a sharp scream sounded, gagnilon, trapped in a nightmare, suddenly woke up!
When he woke up, he found that his whole body was very heavy. The whole person seemed to collapse and couldn't make L ì Q ì. As a sea blue knight, ganeron moment f ǎ ny ī I'm afraid I'm poisoned.
"Bodyguard! Come quickly!" Ganilon strong gritted his teeth and stood up supporting his body. After subconsciously pulling out his sword, ganilon shouted loudly.
The bodyguard outside the door seemed to disappear, and no one answered. Suddenly, gagnilon felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He quickly opened the door and introduced gagnilon. In front of him was a terrible scene. The bodyguard in the castle was lying in a pool of blood, and on the bodyguard were several soldiers wearing armor. At the moment, these soldiers were biting the bodyguard's body with blood.
Looking at the soldiers tearing off pieces of bloody flesh and swallowing them into the entrance, Ganelon, who had developed excellent combat consciousness on the battlefield, quickly waved his sword and cut off the head of one of the soldiers, while the other soldier seemed to notice the emergence of Ganelon. The soldiers standing up slowly were like Ghouls smelling the breath of living people, Opened his mouth and rushed over!
"Bastard!" In his rage, gagneron waved his long sword fiercely, and the soldiers were split in half by human helmets from beginning to end.
After a full blow, the strange sense of detachment rolled up the whole body again. Gagnilon supported his body to the window to see what happened. When the sea blue knight looked out of the window, scenes in the street like the most terrible nightmares were printed into gagnilon's eyes. Unfinished (to be continued...)
