Mount and Blade

Chapter 123 Persian High

.........

"kill!!"

The shouts of killing outside the city shook the sky, and tens of thousands of Judah soldiers swarmed in from the gaps in the city wall, stepping on broken stones and flesh and blood that could not be distinguished from enemies or companions.

"The spearmen are ready to charge at any time! The swordsmen and shieldmen follow closely behind, the crossbowmen are all on the wall, and the heavy swordsmen are responsible for guarding the back row!!"

"The first and second squads of the White Dragon Knights, charge with me." Following Yuris's order, the members of the White Dragon Knights set up their lances and formed a formation to charge at the gap in the city wall. Each team was in an orderly manner. to carry out the latest orders.

The huge lance in Green's hand was also placed under his arm, and he charged into the battle with the White Dragon Knights. The horse's hooves rumbled in the earth, smashing the incoming Judah soldiers into pieces, and the spear penetrated the flesh. The sounds of screaming and armor being trampled are the main theme of this war.

The cavalry spear penetrated two people in a row and then cracked. They were directly discarded and entered into fierce hand-to-hand combat. When the power of the charge weakened, the followers were left to break it and use it to increase the distance to ensure the survival of the knights with the highest output rate.

[Killed the Judah Spear Infantry and gained 80 experience points]

[Killed Joda Blade Shielder and gained 160 experience points]

.........

After three rounds of charges, the impact of the Knights alone could no longer divide the battlefield smoothly. After the withdrawal after the third round of charges, Midland's spear army led the charge and forked Judah's soldiers into hedgehogs. , the sword and shield bearer followed closely behind.

The crossbowmen who had all evacuated to the city wall also launched a new round of volleys. The dense Judah soldiers had nowhere to hide, causing significant casualties, and soon fell into pure fighting.

[Upgraded to level 23]

............

By the time Midland's reinforcements arrived, it was already half a month later, but even so, it was three days earlier than expected, catching Judah off guard.

Due to the war that lasted for more than a month, Judah's army showed signs of wanting to retreat. After all, the loss of 30,000 people was no joke. The deployment of 100,000 people only managed to break the final battle of Erda Fortress. The outer city wall, the second level of the fortress wall is also an epic city wall with a height of 50 meters. If you want to attack by force, It will definitely be very difficult for a team of less than 70,000 people, and the mortality rate will increase a lot. Moreover, the front line of Erda Fortress spans the Ledoin Plain from Judah, and supplies will be difficult. This month Almost all the villages and towns around Erda Fortress were "taken care of", and the people were in dire straits.

The Erda Fortress supported by the Marquis of Scheit only had a garrison of 30,000 people. Including the 12,000 people of Laban and the Knights, it was only a deployment of 40,000 people. In order to resist the attack of up to 100,000 people, The Juda army garrison has lost nearly 20,000 people. This protracted tug of war has made the armaments and treasury of both sides even more empty. After all, the maintenance costs of such an active attack are funded by the king.

As for how much loot and ransom can be left after the war, it is a transaction between the nobles. If the king wants to profit from it, he needs to pay a lower acquisition fee to collectively pawn the captives.

"Woo~" "Woo~"

Accompanied by a unique sound of horns, rows of flags were raised from the plains in the distance. They were the flags of the Midland royal family! !

"Hey!! It's reinforcements from Midland!"

The Judah soldiers who were attacking the city panicked and did not bother to climb up the city wall to charge into the battle. Each one of them was knocked down by the rolling stones and logs on the city wall in a stunned moment, and the hot oil and water fried their skin and flesh. The soldiers were split apart, and the wails were endless. The soldiers below moved away from the city wall one by one. Only a few Judah soldiers who stayed on the ladder were still on the mission to attack the city, but they didn't know that only death was waiting for them.

"Don't panic, reorganize your formation, and the captains of each column will reorganize their troops!!"

The Persian general stabilized the morale-shaken army. Now someone must open up the situation and put on a heavy helmet. It is up to him to boost the morale of the army!

"Purple Rhinoceros Holy Knights! Set up your formation!!"

The halberd in the Persian master's hand danced, and a group of heavily armored knights instantly formed a formation to face the enemy.

"Let the Black Wolf Knights and the Black Sheep Iron Spear Heavy Cavalry Regiment be prepared to respond to the enemy. When our army withdraws, they will conduct a second round of charge to delay time."

"...By the way, let Heron take his Viper Knights to observe the dynamics of the battlefield and enter the battlefield at any time, just in case."

"Understood, General."

The deputy general of the Purple Rhinoceros Holy Knights was ordered to convey the instructions of General Bosco.

"Generals, there is no need to worry. The enemy's reinforcements have been anticipated. Purple Rhinoceros Holy Knights, charge!!"

The Purple Rhinoceros Knights, armed from head to hooves, are dispatched! This kind of armed strength alone is enough to teach Midland's infantry to be a new man. In the face of absolute strength, any resistance is in vain.

The moment the bodies collided, almost three rows of Midland soldiers were hit by the horses, causing their flesh and blood to fly out. They knocked down a group of soldiers behind them. Their flesh and steel were crushed under the horses' hooves in an instant. Countless soldiers were killed. The soldiers were skewered on lances wrapped in steel, and the lances that could no longer be reused were thrown away on the spot. Swords and bolas were weapons that continued to harvest flesh and blood.

And Bosco, who was at the forefront of the charge, kept waving his unstoppable halberd to sweep away all the soldiers who wanted to block his way. Every time he attacked, he could take away a large number of soldiers' lives. After a few rounds, the Midland soldiers who had seen Bosco's bravery had been killed and made way for him.

"Your Majesty, please step aside. The White Tiger Knights will definitely protect your safety." When Tedwood saw this, he immediately had the king guarded. The enemy's ability was unmatched by ordinary people! !

"Humph, a bunch of Midland rats, is there no one in the whole kingdom who can fight?"

Bosco's sharp eyes stared at Tedwood who was guarding the king to retreat. This was a great provocation. The entire knights did not dare to fight against an enemy general! !

"...You!"

A deputy general of the White Tiger Knights was about to ride his horse to fight, but was stopped by Tedwood. He didn't want the deputy general he had cultivated with all his heart to be defeated again.

"Our duty is to protect the king. We don't need to fight against such warriors. The army can just crush them!"

"Hook-scythe soldiers!! Attack!"

"White Tiger Knights, provide cover!"

The soldiers holding hook-scythes in the rear, led by the sergeants of each team, surrounded the Purple Rhinoceros Paladin. Even the most heavily armed war horses had no protection on their legs!!

"Hmph, a bunch of cowards and incompetents!!"

Bosco left the contempt in front of the battle. Even if Midland could make him lose at this time, the morale of Midland's army would be shaken.

Because he was right. No one in Midland could fight against Jodah's strongest knight!!
