Proof of the Sun King

Chapter 64: , Battle of Aarhus Bridge

The next morning, the soldiers arrived at Aarhus Bridge.

This is a stone bridge about thirty meters long. Due to Albert's emphasis on trade and trade routes, there are sentries here.

The soldiers immediately began to arrange a lot of gunpowder on the bridge under the guidance of the officer, while Nikolai and Ryan asked the sentry about the battle situation: "How is the battle at Oak Pass!"

Before he finished speaking, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance, and a group of about seventy human troops rushed towards the Aarhus Bridge, almost all of them were injured: "Mr. Oak Pass is about to fall!"

"What?!" Everyone was shocked and quickly inquired about what happened.

"The barbarians attacked again and again regardless of casualties. We resisted desperately, but there were too many barbarians!" The leading soldier wiped the sweat from his face: "We can only choose to retreat, there are too many enemies. ."

"How long will it take for the barbarians to get here?" Ryan stepped forward and asked.

"We used boulders and iron to seal the gate, and the barbarians only have simple siege weapons... The gate should be able to hold for another twenty minutes." If Ryan is not mistaken, he is the chief guard of Orke Pass.

"Very good! You've worked hard, you retreat first, leave it to us here!" Nikolai waved his hand, signaling them to retreat quickly: "Go back and have a good rest, we will resist Bireg and his werebear tribe here! "

"Thank you sir!" The chief of the gate guard saluted the two knights, and then led the seventy remnants to retreat.

The situation of the battle was urgent, the soldiers accelerated the speed of arranging the explosives, and a heavy atmosphere was spreading among the soldiers. When the black barbarians appeared on the horizon in the distance, Mjordenhaven's army finally arranged the explosives.

"Arrange! Arrange! Prepare to meet the enemy!!!" Nikolai commanded the soldiers and arranged defenses at the bridge head. The shield-wielding halberdiers lined up in two rows, followed by the most elite swordsmen.

These great swordsmen wear breastplates, tights, and round helmets. They are the most elite troops in Mjordenhaven. In fact, the main force of the empire's army is also composed of these two-handed swordsmen and knights.

The two-handed greatsword has a huge damage range and lethality. Against such armies as barbarians, greenskins, and undead armies, the two-handed greatsword is very effective, especially the two-handed greatsword restrains long-handled weapons. Lack of sophisticated equipment, the massive use of spears and spears of the army is amazingly lethal.

So these great swordsmen are the real support in this battle.

Gradually, in the darkness, barbarians appeared.

A horde of barbarian wereurbs from the northern wasteland loomed far beyond the horizon.

"coming."

Most of the barbarians wore the simplest fur coats, armed with battle axes and round shields, and some with long spears. Their hair was shaved clean, leaving only the tuft in the middle of their heads.

It's a predator!

Marauders are born warriors, born in the most difficult and harsh conditions of the northern wasteland, and raised under the cruel laws of the jungle, because the weak have long died in the survival of the fittest.

The barbarians never farm and have no time to harvest crops. The tools they use for production are axes, swords and shields. What do they want? Southerners have it! Go grab it! Go grab it!

Everything we desire can be obtained from the inferior southern humans!

Thousands of barbarians marched toward Aarhus Bridge. The barbarians were disorganized and tattered, but the neatly dressed and better armed Nord army was very nervous.

sharp contrast.

The barbarian leader Bireg came out in the eyes of everyone. This is a tall and strong man. His sturdy muscles are wrapped in a blood-red leather armor. And brown beard hangs down from his head, but the end of the beard and the knot of the braid are covered with various skulls, making people shudder.

"Another slaughter, another victory, too weak, the Southerners bore me." Bireg laughed, and then he raised his axe, motioning for his tribe to stop: "Now, another bunch of idiots The southerners blocked our way, tell me my warriors, what should we do?"

"Kill them all! Kill them all! Kill them all!!!" All the barbarians roared loudly, and their faces were full of bloodthirsty and fanaticism.

"Then... listen to my orders... I count to three, and we'll attack!" Bireg shouted indifferently, he really didn't pay attention to the soldiers on the opposite side.

"Prepare to fight! Prepare to fight! Warriors of Nord! Hold on to your spears, stand up your shields, behind you is your homeland! Show up your courage!" Ryan walked through the array of soldiers holding a warhammer , said angrily: "Death to the survivors! Live to the dead! Today I will fight alongside you! Let's go from one victory to the next together! Long live Nord!"

"Long live Nord!" The soldiers stood guard by the bridge. The front halberd and shield soldiers were deployed on the bridge, behind the battle were the great swordsmen, and the elite crossbowmen were deployed in the bunkers behind the bridge. His fingers squeezed the trigger, ready to shoot at the barbarians.

"This time, there are some **** with backbone." Bireg saw that the army on the opposite side was neat and lined up closely, so he let go of his contempt, although he didn't quite understand why there was such an elite guard on this bridge. Jun, but what does this matter?

The Blood God will love this performance.

"Go forward! Go forward!!!" The barbarian soldiers began to charge towards the Nord army at the bridgehead.

At the forefront is the lowest level of the barbarian army - the barbarian raider.

"Shoot!" The walnut knight Nikolai, who was in the bunker behind the bridge, first took out the big bow behind him, and then drew a feather arrow from the quiver behind him. The walnut knight took a deep breath and drew the big bow.

"Hey!" The first barbarian plunderer who rushed at the front was hit by the arrow in the middle of the door, and fell down after screaming in agony.

The crossbowmen followed Nikolai and started to shoot. In the blink of an eye, several barbarian plunderers at the forefront were shot and killed. However, there were thousands of barbarians, and the black army would not be scattered just because a few people fell. , the fall of the first few people has doubled the ferocity of the barbarians, and everyone rushed to squeeze into the front line, turning a blind eye to the deaths of their companions.

However, the bridge was narrow, and the number of barbarian soldiers who could rush to the bridge was limited. The halberdiers used the simplest thrusts to take the lives of barbarian plunderers one after another.

More barbarian armies are all crowded together, unable to reach the bridge at all. In the case of crowded people, the individual force of the barbarians cannot be exerted, which greatly limits their combat effectiveness. In a row, a simple thrust of the Nord halberdiers brought them pain and death.

Some barbarian raiders try to wade across the ice of the Ovree River, and they quickly find out they are wrong... The ice of the Ovree River is thinner than paper and shatters at the touch of a few unfortunate people. After falling into the water and becoming a living target for the crossbowmen, no barbarian soldier dared to go into the water again.

"Come on!" Ryan held the hammer in both hands, and with one blow, three barbarian soldiers flew away. The white wolf knight's war hammer opened and closed. He first directly smashed the head of a barbarian raider twice, and then used The barbarian plunderers who rushed to the bridge were forced to retreat after a series of defeats.

"Fight!" Ike and Lops also followed behind Ryan, looking at these barbarians, Ike's eyes were blood red, he needed glory so much to wash away his shame, the wandering knight didn't even use his shield , holding his long sword in both hands, he bravely entered the enemy line.

Ike first confronted a barbarian with a mohawk head and a bunch of teeth hanging on his body. He swept his sword rudely, and the long sword was blocked by a wooden round shield and headed towards the barbarian's head. He chopped up, and when the battle axe approached Ike's face, half of the barbarian's head also fell to the ground.

Lopus played with stability. He carefully let himself hide behind the shield, and blocked the oncoming battle axe with the hard kite shield, and then the halberd stabbed another barbarian in the opposite direction.

The first wave of barbarians who rushed to the bridge dropped more than fifty corpses, but failed to make the Nord army take a step back.

"Pass my order! Let the warriors stand back!" Bireg immediately realized that this would not go on, so he immediately ordered all the barbarian plunderers to back away, and many of the barbarian troops were wearing black fur and behind their backs. Barbarian warrior with plenty of javelins and axes.

Seeing these barbarian soldiers coming out of the team, Ryan felt bad, he immediately backed away, and then shouted at the soldiers: "Raise the shield! Raise the shield! Find cover!"

As soon as the voice fell, Ryan's voice was drowned out by the whistling axe and javelin. The white wolf knight stood on the spot, and any flying weapons were easily knocked away by him.

On the other side of the river, a large number of javelins and throwing axes attacked Nord's army formation. Many crossbowmen were hit by javelins and throwing axes before they could crouch down, and immediately fell down. On the bridge, the halberdiers stood up. The shield was used for defense, and the two-handed swordsman and Ike also hid in the shield formation. Even so, several halberd soldiers died in the attack, and many shields were also deformed by the huge impact.

"Counterattack!" After a few attacks, Nikolai immediately signaled the crossbowmen to fight back. He bent the bow and set up the arrow himself. Under his command, the crossbowmen pulled the trigger towards the barbarian army across the river. Armored barbarian harpooneers and axemen fell in pieces.

The battle situation was at a stalemate. The barbarians did not withdraw with the Nord troops who were defending the bridge, and the Nord troops could not leave the front to fight the weak hand-to-hand battle with the barbarians.

After several rounds of offense and defense, the barbarians lost more than 200 corpses, and the Nord army lost more than 50.

"Crollin? Where are my champions?" Bireg had no idea of ​​joining the battle. The barbarian leader grinned and watched his tribe's soldiers fall in pieces. The scum's death made him very happy. His tribe didn't need the weak.

However, Bireg also deeply understands that his mission is to destroy Mjordenhaven, and in order to please the **** of darkness, he must speed up.

"Dong~dong~dong~" Heavy footsteps sounded.

Three barbarians with a height of two meters, wearing huge horn helmets, and covering their entire bodies with a set of sturdy Chaos armor, armed with giant mace appeared from the army: "Chief!"

"Kill them! Move forward!!!"

So these giant barbarian warriors held giant mace and charged towards the Nord army formation at the bridgehead.

Is the barbarian champion warrior! Ryan gritted his teeth, saying that each such barbarian champion warrior was said to have been baptized by the dark god, and they would fight eternally under the dark god's watch until they died or their power was recognized.

Every champion warrior is at least an elite peak powerhouse!

The huge figure and the red light from the horn helmet made the soldiers shudder.

"Shoot! Attack those big men!! Shoot their shoulders! Abdomen! And the gaps in the armor!" Nikolai motioned for the crossbowmen to divert their attention, and the soldiers immediately turned around under his order.

"Ding~ding~" The champion warriors were gradually filled with dense arrows.

It was useless. The actions of the champion warriors never stopped at all. On the contrary, their footsteps gradually accelerated, rushing towards the dense shield formation of the Nord army.

"Meet the enemy!" Ryan took the lead, and first met a champion warrior. The battle between the warhammer and the mace made a deafening high-pitched sound. The barbarian champion warrior took two steps back, but he again launched towards Ryan without emotion. attack.

The other two champion warriors kept moving, charging directly towards the halberd formation at the bridgehead. Facing the solid shield wall, the barbarian champion named Cullorin rushed to the halberd formation, and then the heavy giant Mace swept down...

The sturdy shield formation is broken! With the screams of Nord soldiers and the sound of falling water, the sturdy shield was smashed by the barbarian champions!

"Go forward!!!" Bireg raised his big axe: "The warriors of the bear tribe! March!!!"

The barbarian raiders rushed into the Nords like a tide.

"Great swordsmen! It's time to fight!" Ike also raised his long sword, and the great swordsmen followed the wandering knight and launched a counter-charge towards the oncoming barbarian army~www.wuxiaspot. com~ The great swordsmen stabilized the situation as soon as they entered the battlefield, and the two-handed swords continued to harvest the enemy's life.

The tragic hand-to-hand battle began. One second before Nord's great swordsman cut off the head of the barbarian predator, the next second he was cut from behind by another barbarian, and he fell down with a howl.

The great swordsmen were better at fighting than the barbarian plunderers, but the number of barbarian soldiers was several times that of them. After just ten minutes of fierce fighting, Nord's army began to be beaten by the barbarians.

Ryan hit the barbarian champion's wrist with a full blow. The barbarian champion lost his weapon in the scream. He tried to pick up the weapon, but Ryan didn't give him this chance. The white wolf knight's warhammer was surrounded by a whirlwind, and its swing speed was much faster than ordinary people. , he first smashed the barbarian champion's right hand with a hammer, leaving his body wide open, and then hit him on the head with a hammer. The horned helmet made a cracking sound, and the barbarian champion took two steps back and fell to the ground with a bang.

Ryan immediately put a hammer on his head and completed the kill.

"Yo~ Nord still has such a human?" Bireg saw his champion dead, without a heartache on his face, he took his battle axe, when he noticed that the young knight's decoration and With black hair and blue eyes, he couldn't stop laughing: "Ha! It's him! It really is him! I want to take off his head! Dedicate it to the greatest and noblest Blood God!"

Ryan took off the head of the barbarian champion, turned around and found that Nord's army was already crumbling under the attack of the barbarians, so the white wolf knight no longer thought about it. military order.

"Retreat! Retreat! Aarhus Bridge can't be held! Let's retreat into Mjordenhaven!"

"Retreat!"
