Chapter 158： Fortress Attack and Defense II

More and more rebel soldiers jumped onto the fortress walls, and the defenders desperately prevented them from expanding the breach.

All six ladders of the rebels were successfully placed on the city wall. The battle between the two attack points on the left and the two attack points on the right was at a stalemate, but the situation in the middle two was not optimistic.

The rebel soldiers who rushed up from these two places were all bloody, shouting with red eyes, while struggling to attack the defenders, and they didn't seem to care about the swords stabbed or chopped by the opponent. Attack stance.

However, the defenders did not hurt them much. These soldiers who were clearly wearing leather armor seemed to be wearing a fine steel plate armor, and it was the kind that was fully covered from head to toe. Can easily block the defender's sword.

Bowman, the knight squire, was in a bitter fight, and he was entangled by a rebel soldier.

After a few rounds, he could feel that the opponent's martial skills were not very good, and he could only know the common moves in the army. Anyway, he was inferior to this servant who aimed at knights and was trained by his father in martial arts since he was a child. Far.

If it was normal, he felt that a hasty move could kill the opponent.

But the soldier in front of him has a defense that is close to biàntài and a strength that far surpasses him. These two advantages make up for the opponent's lack of technology.

Whenever he hit the opponent's body, Bowman felt as if he had hit a steel plate. In the past, he only felt this feeling when he hit an enemy wearing heavy armor.

But the opponent is obviously wearing leather armor, and his movements are flexible. If the opponent is really wearing heavy armor, no matter how strong his strength is, he cannot be so flexible.

Bowman couldn't help but think of the report of the seriously injured scout a few days ago. At that time, he and his companion also encountered an enemy whose defense ability exceeded common sense.

As a knight squire, he was still able to stalemate with the rebel soldiers who entangled him, but other ordinary soldiers were in trouble. The melee combat had already started for more than ten minutes, and several people around Bowman had already fallen. One's own soldiers, while the other side seems to have no casualties.

At this moment he heard the old prince commanding the battle from the tower shouting to everyone: "Blunt weapons! Use blunt weapons to attack those enemies that the sword cannot deal with!"

One sentence reminded Bowman that although the adults could not figure out how the situation reported by the scouts happened before, since the opponent has a heavy armor-like defense, and the sword has limited effect on it, it may be possible to use blunt weapons to attack. will play a role.

So the fortress urgently prepared a batch of blunt weapons such as war hammers, but the number was not too large, so Bowman was assigned one, which was now pinned to his waist.

A real blunt weapon is not as bulky and cumbersome as most people imagine. For example, Bowman's war hammer is actually only the size of a Chengren's fist, and it is not as big as the head of a bard, weighing hundreds of catties at every turn. So exaggerated.

Bowman dodged to avoid the opponent's attack, put the knight's sword into the sheath with skillful movements, and immediately untied the war hammer pinned to his waist.

After continuing to fight a few moves with the rebel soldiers, he took aim at a weakness in the opponent, mustered all the strength in his body, swung the war hammer fiercely and hit the opponent's right arm.

Under the huge reaction force, the tiger's mouth of his right hand, which he used to hold the hammer handle, was numb and painful. When his hand was loosened, the weapon almost fell off.

But at the moment of the hit, the rebel soldier uttered a painful cry, and his right arm immediately became loose after being hit, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground all of a sudden.

Bowman was overjoyed: "It's useful!"

As a well-trained knight attendant, he certainly would not let go of the good opportunity in front of him to beat the dog in the water, so he swung his warhammer continuously at an extremely fast speed, and kept calling at the opponent's body.

After being hit on the chest several times in a row, the rebel soldier seemed to be stunned, unable to even dodge, but instinctively kept stepping back.

The knight attendant rushed forward, aiming at the opponent's head and hitting him hard.

Hearing the sound of "touch", the rebel soldiers were beaten to the point that their brains burst, and one of them fell back on the city wall.

Bowman took a few breaths, looked around excitedly and began to look for the next target.

However, his heart sank at the sight of it.

After many people switched to blunt weapons, although several of the red-eyed rebel soldiers had fallen down, the defenders were still being beaten by the enemy at this time, and new soldiers were constantly emerging on the siege ladder. enemy.

On the one hand, the number of blunt weapons equipped by the defenders is very small, only a few dozen in total. On the other hand, not all soldiers are as skilled in martial arts as they have knight attendants.

Without thinking too much, Bowman immediately swung his hammer and joined the battle again.

When rushing towards the enemy, he turned his head to look at Sir Klein in the distance. There were already several enemy corpses lying beside this martial arts master. He was surrounded by numerous enemies at this moment, but the heroic The knight showed no timidity at all, and waved a flail vigorously to block attacks from left to right, creating new wounded or corpses for the rebels from time to time.

Seeing that the man he served was so heroic, Bowman's worries caused by his side's decline just now were wiped away, and his fighting spirit was rekindled in his heart, roaring and rushing towards the new target he had just picked.

…

Seeing his own soldiers continuously climbing up the fortress wall, Scott couldn't help laughing.

A mage companion beside him said: "It seems that the attack went very smoothly."

"Of course!" Scott said with the corner of his mouth curled up, "With the blessing of our magic, even mortals can become so powerful."

"I just want to show that lord that our enchanters are so powerful that we can turn decay into magic."

Scott thought of a high-ranking senior in the organization This senior specialized in strengthening his body and was powerful. It was rumored that he could single-handedly sweep away an opponent with just a pair of fleshy fists. army.

But this senior has always looked down on their enchanters, and stubbornly believes that strengthening combat power with external objects is just heresy.

"The real strength is the strength of your body, even when you have nothing, you can crush the enemy with absolute advantage."

Thinking of the contemptuous words he said to himself in front of him, Scott felt 10,000 upset.

snort! No matter how you strengthen your own body, there is a limit. Can you still become a god?

Of course, Scott admits that those strengthening magics are indeed great, but if the organization wants to expand its influence in this world and finally achieve its goals, it must arm a large number of mortal troops, and these mortals have limited aptitude and cannot learn subtle magic at all. magic.

Although the organization is researching the strengthening magic that can be applied to mortal bodies, this kind of magic often cannot last for too long, and our mages are extremely precious and the number is very small. Do we have to send people to the dangerous battlefield every time we fight? Mortal soldiers cast enhanced magic, if there is a mistake, it will be a huge loss.

At this time, enchanters are needed. Enchanters can not only temporarily enchant ordinary equipment before the battle begins, but also add semi-permanent buffs to weapons during the manufacturing process.

By cultivating a large number of enchanters, you can manufacture a large number of enchanted weapons, thereby arming a large number of mortal troops, and bulldozing the world with the advantage of equipment.

It's a pity, that adult seems to have gone to the Northwest Bay to do important things, so he can't watch our wonderful performance here.

Scott thought very regretfully, otherwise he would definitely be able to change his stubborn and stereotyped impression of us.

What a pity!
