Tomb Survival: Evolve from Skeleton

124 The Undead and the "Iron Wall" Lansman

The commander saw that the tower had pushed through the trench that was filled yesterday, and the wall above the wall was about to become a battlefield for hand-to-hand combat. The commander couldn't care less about what to say to James.He ordered two of his own soldiers.

"Take this guy to me! Throw him into the secret passage!"

The commander said.

At this time, someone came up with hot oil, and poured the hot oil onto the wooden ladder on the wall.The commander took the lit torch from the person next to him and threw it towards the ladder.

The flames wound around the siege ladder like a snake from top to bottom, and the enemies standing on the ladder howled and fell from mid-air while waiting to fight.

"Take him out!"

The commander threw away his shield, grabbed his bow, and began shooting the enemy.

"I don't have the money to hire a second designer for King Fritz!"

The air was filled with the smell of burnt wood, a strong smell of blood, and the smell of burnt human flesh... The sky was full of smoke and dust, and the flames of war filled the air.There was another loud bang, and a tower next to it collapsed, and even the soldiers in the tower were drowned in the ruins of boulders.

The castle is unfinished and won't last long.

The commander held up the shield, but still a piece of gravel grazed his cheek, and blood rolled down, and he licked his own blood.

He waited for the second tower to fall.

But the expected collapse did not happen.

"It's reinforcements!"

"The reinforcements are here!"

"Reinforcements are coming—"

Shouts of joy echoed from the walls, and the soldiers cheered.

The commander was taken aback, and he looked up.

The horses galloped, the iron hooves trampled the ground, and the snow was blown up into the air like smoke.In the snow-white smoke and dust, the scarlet lion king's banner surged like a raging tide, and the iron armor clanged, and the scarlet and silver torrent came from the horizon in people's vision.

This cavalry was like a bloody whirlwind passing across the ground, approaching the battlefield in an instant.

The Jesik rebels stopped their siege of the royal castle, and quickly shrank and gathered, trying to meet the cavalry who came suddenly.

The sound of sharp arrows piercing the air.

Those were the most elite longbowmen of the Fritz Kingdom, and they took the lead in attacking the enemy after they entered the range.

"defense--"

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and those who were on the offensive side at the last moment have become the prey of others in a blink of an eye.

Yes, prey!

The cavalry that came carrying the Scarlet King's Banner formed a crescent-like battle formation, encircling the Jesk rebels outside the royal castle.

After the armored cavalry arrived on the battlefield, they charged directly without taking any rest, giving the impression that this was a tyrannical beast, and the Jesik rebels were its prey.

Iron armor criss-crossed, and blood splattered, just like the lion king's banner that was unfurled fiercely.

A large number of undead who were about to pour into the castle were also torn apart by the blade of the iron cavalry...

"who is it!"

The general of the Jesik rebel army tried to organize a counterattack charge, but the enemy came so suddenly and the attack was so swift that his army was swept away by surprise and was now being trampled by the enemy.

Who is in command of this cavalry? !

What kind of person would lead such a murderous army?

A war horse flitted across the battlefield, and all those who blocked it were beheaded.That knight was like a long knife going forward on the battlefield, blood splashed on that knight's armor.

He rushed to the front of the city on his horse, and slashed at the general of the Jeske rebel army with a sword.

For a split second, the Jesik rebel general saw the ice-blue eyes beneath his helmet visor.

At the moment of unconsciousness, the general of the Jesik rebel army knew who was leading the cavalry.

The snow in January is still falling.

The fire was still burning, and the corpses of people and horses on the snow were intertwined and piled up, and the Jesik rebels retreated northward.

The cavalry who came to support did not pursue, their armor was covered with blood, and they gathered together holding the king's flag high.

The commander standing on the wall ordered the drawbridge to be lowered.

At the front of all the cavalry, the knight who beheaded the general of the Jesk rebel army took off his helmet. He was a middle-aged man.

The wind blew his silver hair, and he was as cold as iron.

The commander recognized him.

That is the lion of the kingdom.

Captain of the Royal Guard—

"Iron Wall" Lansman.

The castle was defended by the royal military.

The drawbridge was lowered, and the knights stepped into the unbuilt castle to the cheers of the defenders.After the knights entered the city gate, they took off their helmets one after another.The commander found that among the cavalry, many of those at the front already had some gray hair.

The soul of this cavalry is composed of these old subordinates who have fought with Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, on the battlefield for many years.

After Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, entered the castle, he did not rest, and directly summoned the commander of the royal castle.

The number of royal soldiers and old troops who followed him was small, and the victory of this battle was attributed to the surprise measures taken by Lansman, the captain of the royal guard.

The most important thing right now is not to completely defeat one or two Jesk rebels, or the undead, but to defend this important military castle for King Fritz.

The map was spread out on the table, and the commander reported the situation of the royal castle during this period to Lansman, the head of the royal guard.

This undead riot was a long-planned rebellion.

After the transportation line of Hesmu City from the southwest was cut off by the Jesk rebels, the construction work of the castle in the royal military had to come to a standstill.

The royal family of Fritz had already evacuated the central palace of Yayu City, and the area to the east of the palace had completely fallen into the hands of the Jesk rebels, and the situation in the north and south would not be much better.

At the beginning of the war, when the undead appeared in large numbers, the commander put all his strength into defense except sending someone to send a message to King Fritz.

"Still, it's bad."

The commander said helplessly.

"The castle is too badly damaged."

Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, nodded slightly.

The castle in the royal family's military was never completed. This time, the enemy's strong attack at any cost almost destroyed all the defenses on the north side of the castle. When the tower collapsed, part of the city wall was also damaged.When the Jesk rebels reorganize and attack, the castle will be difficult to defend.

There is only one way to keep the castle:
Use offense instead of defense.

Right now, it is possible to launch another attack on the castle in the royal family's military, and it is the Jesk rebel army led by Prince Will, one of the six nobles who are closer to here.

Prince Will is stationed at the front line of the northern part of Yayu City, and the defeated Jesik rebel army will soon send back the news of the failure of the siege.

Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, discussed with the generals and quickly made a decision.

No sooner had the siege ended than the scouts were sent out of the castle.

They had been ordered to scout out the tracks of Prince Will's army.

Without waiting too long, the scouts brought back the news they wanted from Lansman, the captain of the royal guard.

Just as the captain of the royal guard, Lansman, and the others judged, Prince Will, who was stationed in the northern part of Yayu City, led the army to prepare for the second siege.

They marched along the road between the Laixi River that runs through Yayu City and the royal military castle. Because they carried a lot of siege equipment, they were not fast.

After several days of rest, the recharged cavalry set off again with Lansman, the captain of the royal guard.

They left the castle and went to a slope lower down the Lacey River, which was most suitable for cavalry charges.On the boundary of the slope, there is a sparse residential building.

The army of Lansman, the captain of the royal guard, will wait behind the civilian house for the arrival of the enemy.
