Chapter 51 The Waited-for Fighter "For the Kingdom of Swadia!" "kill!" Most of the spear phalanx had been broken down, and the first two rows of Swadian infantrymen had switched to maces or half-swords. Only the last two rows of Swadian infantry had not yet fully come into contact with those spiritual creatures. With the resistance of the comrades in front, he was still able to hold up the spear in his hand and stab forward with all his strength, cooperating with the comrades in the front row using maces or the comrades in the second row using half-swords to continue reaping the lives of those spiritual creatures! Right in front of these Swadian infantrymen, there were already a large number of corpses lying on the ground. The positions of these Swadian infantrymen were originally stationed, but they were forced to retreat step by step due to the impact of the spiritual creatures, getting closer and closer to the castle gate. The battle was extremely fierce. What's more, those gnolls, wild goblins, earth elves or green-skinned orcs, wasteland lizardmen, etc., who have gone completely crazy and become even more crazy due to the smell of blood, charge forward fearlessly.
The pressure on these Swadian infantrymen has really become too great! The formation began to distort and deform. Obviously, under the impact of these spiritual creatures that have fallen into a state of madness, the formation that was already difficult to maintain is beginning to be unable to cope! "Lord Shen Mu, please give the order for us crossbowmen to join the battle and use the crossbows!" Right on the balcony, the 10 mercenary crossbowmen were holding their crossbows and were becoming anxious. Including in the spiral staircase of the tower, a Lake Rat Gang recruit ran up quickly, panting, but still urgently requested: "Lord Shen Mu, the Swadian infantry can't hold on any longer! We, the members of the Lake Rat Gang, ask you to use javelins to help them resist the enemy's attack!" "Okay, go back to your posts. I have arrangements." Shen Mu directly rejected their proposal. Slowly raising his head, he looked towards the front line where the fighting was the most intense. And among those crazy spiritual creatures, there were blue star humans with a faint glow all over their bodies, who had come to the front row, using scimitars or maces, with their mouths pursed and their teeth clenched tightly. Shen Mu knew that now was not the best time to lure the enemy deeper. Because it's right behind. The pig-headed men who suffered heavy losses at the beginning of the battle and then retreated have not yet joined the battle again. Including those employees of the diesel company, who have become the elite leaders of the pig-headed people. Still waiting behind for the spear phalanx to be broken. "We need to wait." Shen Mu slowly clenched his teeth again. But below, on the tragic front line, even the heavy chain mail worn by the Swadian infantry had been chopped to pieces by the swinging scimitars. There was also a Swadian infantryman who swung the mace in his hand to explode the head of the wild goblin who was squeezing in front of him. At the same time, he was unable to dodge in time and was hit on the head by the mace in the hand of another wild goblin. After shaking his body a few times, he collapsed to the ground. The Swadian infantrymen did wear flat-top helmets on their heads, which were protective gear made of iron plates and cotton.
But it is not good for blunt attacks, especially heavy attacks like the mace that use force to overcome clever attacks. Still not much of a defensive effect. It's time to fall. Or can only fall down miserably! This is not an isolated case. On the front line, which was like a meat grinder, Swadian infantrymen had fallen one after another. Either the chain mail on their bodies was chopped into pieces, or they were hit in the vitals before they could dodge, or they killed a few spiritual creatures with their maces or half-swords, but were then fearlessly rushed up by the crazy creatures behind them that were still under the influence of bloodlust and died together with them. After all, there were only 10 Swadian infantrymen on this 45-meter-wide central corridor at the beginning. They could only barely form a battle line of four. When the spear phalanx was broken. When they were engaged in close combat with face to face, chest to chest. The ability to fight these crazy spiritual creatures is also thanks to the excellent armor and weapons distributed by the Kingdom of Swadia, which can ignore most of the slashes or scratches. As for those spiritual creatures, they were equipped with leather armor at most, and most of them were not wearing any armor at all, only a set of rough linen garbage robes to cover their bodies. They were completely in a state of light armor or no armor. They were just restrained by the sharp and sophisticated weapons in the hands of the Swadian infantry, so they were able to hold on until now! "Kill! For Swadia!" At the same time, the courage of these Swadian infantrymen surged from their chests in order to protect the Swadia stronghold! They are willing to die for Swadia and Lord Shen Mu! Moreover, during their fight. Has retreated to the end. It was less than 10 meters away from the castle hall. If they don't fight to the death and use their lives to stop the enemy, it means that their castle will be breached. This is a scene that any Mount and Blade soldier who has been promoted from the chaotic fighting to the current level does not want to see. Having the castle occupied by the enemy is a shameful defeat! "Swish, swish, swish—" On the balcony, the mercenary sentinels raised their crossbows and launched another round of rain of arrows. Then, without even looking at it, he bent down again, pulled the crossbow string in his hand with all his strength, drew the crossbow arrow from the quiver behind his waist, and stuck it in the shooting slot. He completed this step in just twenty seconds. He raised the crossbow in his hand again, and with a slight vibration, he shot out crossbow arrows one by one. The spiritual creatures that had squeezed the Swadian infantry to the castle gate burst into blood all over their bodies, and howled in pain and anger. But this howl also contained a bit of fear caused by pain! Even the spiritual creatures who had been fighting all the way and finally stepped on the corpses of their own kind, including the remaining dozen or so outsourced contract workers, were now dragging their wounded and bloody bodies and had begun to react. “How… could this happen…” The eyes of these contract workers suddenly cleared up. The bloodthirsty and murderous emotions that originally filled his mind were quickly sobered up by the pain all over his body: "Why are all my followers dying... Why was I so stupid to lead the team to charge directly..." At this moment, these contract workers stopped their steps and were about to continue charging, their faces filled with disbelief. At the same time, he called upon his few remaining followers from the spiritual world, or those who had already been killed, and forced them to retreat in fear, not daring to continue attacking the elite human spearmen who had been squeezed to the city gate and seemed to be at the end of their strength! "Sure enough, they are awake!" Zhang Caidong hid at the back at this time.
At this time, there was a crossbow arrow stuck in his shoulder. Blood stained his leather armor red. But now, Zhang Caidong's face was filled with fear as he looked at the elite human soldiers in front of the human castle who were still gritting their teeth and fighting to the death with blood all over their faces. His heart was trembling and his legs were shaking! "The magic of the diesel company's regular employees! This must be their doing!" What Zhang Caidong thought of at this time was also what the outsourced contract workers thought of. Otherwise, even if these contract workers usually received some benefits from the diesel company, how could they be so crazy in such a fierce battlefield, not caring about life and death, and even not caring about their own life and death and the life and death of their followers, and desperately attacking the enemy! ? These are the enemies of diesel companies. We are not their enemies! Why fight so hard? The regular employees of his diesel company didn't work so hard, so these contract workers, who usually have very poor benefits and wages, worked so hard, isn't that stupid! ? Thinking of this, the contract workers came to their senses and turned around and left, because their losses were too great! "It's our turn." Wu Hu calmly watched these contract workers retreat, with a look of satisfaction on his fat pig face. The most difficult fighting stage has been endured by these contract workers at the cost of their lives. Next. It's time for these regular employees to completely defeat the human infantry who are obviously at the end of their strength and can no longer hold on, rush into the castle, kill the lord, and seize the core of the territory! "Humph!" Thinking of this, the smug smile on Wu Hu's face grew wider. And the left hand is extended again. 'Om! ' A blood-red ball of light was quickly taking shape. "Group bloodthirsty technique!" Then Wu Hu clenched his claws into fists, and all the blood-colored light balls spread out, covering the area of about 30 meters around him. All the Pig-Headed Man’s followers, including those regular employees, are covered! A hint of even more insane murderous intent appeared in the eyes of these pig-headed men. Especially in the thick smell of blood that filled the entire corridor, a huge roar was heard: "Ah - now! Everyone! Kill!!!" Wu Hu raised the flail hammer in his hand and smashed the head of an outsourced contract worker who was running back in front of him with anger and accusation on his face. Then he led all the pig-headed men around him and started rushing forward in an orderly manner! Orcs are a race from the spiritual world that is closer to animals and has extremely strong animal instincts. Even more barbaric than the green-skinned orcs who still have civilization. As long as affected by Bloodlust. As the Pig-Headed Man who likes to rush around the most among the Orcs, the only thing in his mind now is to rush forward, smash the head of anyone who blocks his way with the flail in his hand, and then completely kill their target! When these 200 or so pig-headed men launched their charge, the entire corridor was filled with deafening roars. But at this time, Shen Mu on the balcony raised his lips slightly: "Finally here." He was waiting for these pig-headed men to attack.
Show weakness to the enemy for so long. in order. Also now! "Catapults ready, crossbowmen ready, Lake Rat Gang members ready." A smile appeared on Shen Mu's lips. He stretched out his right hand with a low-level supply ring, and at this moment, he communicated with the system: "Supply everyone!" He paused for a moment, then shouted again, "Everyone, free fire!" ‘Huhuhu——’ Just behind Shen Mu, a refreshing breeze began to emerge again. It swept across the entire corridor. It also brought that refreshing feeling and slightly wheaty flavor to the cheeks of all the soldiers belonging to Shen Mu! Morale has been boosted again! then… It was Shen Mu's troops, fully manned and unleashing a massive firepower attack! (End of this chapter)
