Chapter 1068
Diejieshan Fortress, late at night.
Following a raid that evolved from latent to chaotic warfare, the tens of thousands of elves entrenched outside the fortress of Dijieshan not only didn't have any idea to stop, but instead they made their mistakes and went out in full force.
"Go! Climb the city wall, take down the tower, and turn the fortress of Duanjieshan into the territory of His Majesty Xiong Yingwang——For the sake of the life and death of Azores, go forward——!"
p>"Forward——————!!!"
Thunder-like shouts turned the war into a carnival.
There were no roaring hussars charging, no rain of fire falling from the sky like a meteor, all the earth walls were turned into ruins by crossbow arrows and stone cannons, and all the ravines were filled with corpses...
p>On the glacier wasteland outside the city wall of Duanjie Mountain, nothing can stop the elves from attacking!
The only thing that restricts them is the city wall of the fortress of Broken Boundary Mountain.
The Azorean elves who have gone all the way to this point are certainly impossible to carry any siege weapon, but this is not a problem at all; the persevering elven warriors can even climb the ice-covered wall with their bare hands; Thousands of elven warriors climbed up the outermost wall of the fortress of Duanjieshan like ants in the sound of commands.
At this time, the defenders of Duanjieshan had already been in a mess under the raid of the female elf warrior Alexandra. All the tower sentries were killed by the Azores long sword. As a result, It wasn't until the first batch of wizard warriors climbed the city wall that someone finally reacted and organized defenses in the chaos.
But unfortunately, it is too late.
The moment they climbed up the city wall, the wizard warriors with their long swords in their mouths burst into the wall like a gust of wind, without giving the defenders any time to organize defenses.
Fifteen minutes later, with an iron crown flag falling down, the outermost defense line of the fortress of Duanjieshan fell!
Faced with the almost forgotten attack by the Azorean elves, the imperial defenders, who barely maintained their morale, retreated like crenellations and corridors, and organized temporary cover in the narrow passages. The line of defense, layer by layer to block the enemy's attack.
This can be done because of the special design of the fortress in Broken Boundary Mountain—in this world, there may only be such a fortress. Between the City Wall section and the corridor, both iron fences or stone walls can be used to seal them down.
Because of this, after judging that the enemy had planned to attack desperately, the deputy commander of the fortress Deresis immediately issued the order to abandon the outer barrier; every Hundred Men Squad who evacuated the Defensive Array land When you leave, you must seal up where you are.
Relying on the intermittent retreat and the continuous abandonment of positions, layer by layer blocking, the Defiant Mountain defenders finally contained the momentum of the Azores’ offensive and controlled the enemy’s attack range to the outer city wall. Within, it can no longer penetrate inward.
The Azorean elves who occupied the outer wall immediately discovered that all the fortifications and facilities under their control were one-way and could not be used to attack the fortress at all.
But the price paid is also heavy—at least half of the Hundred Men Squad were blocked by the abandoned tunnel in the outer city wall because it was too late to retreat; or the Azores who attacked when the gate was lowered They were trapped in the tunnel together, or even before the gate was put down, the elves broke through the line of defense.
"Believers of the Holy Cross, summon your courage!"
In front of the defense line of the Fortress City wall in Duanjieshan, the Knights who raised their great swords were standing in front of the shield wall, Played the role of the flag-bearer and the pre-war commander.
"The evildoers who do not believe in God have already rushed to you, and the door of the Holy Cross kingdom has been opened to you-warriors who fought together tonight, you will not have to fear anything, because you are for the empire To fight is to fight for faith!"
"Those who flinch from the front will go to hell; fight the dead with all their strength and ascend to heaven!"
"With the Holy Cross In the name, I will stand by here and fight the devil to death!"
"In the name of the Holy Cross——————!!!!!!"
A uniform cry , So that the eyes of the defenders of Duanjieshan became a lot firmer again.
Although most of the Knights are not good officers, as the "sword-bearing preachers" of Holy Cross Church, they are not afraid of death, and their silhouette standing up from a pool of blood can be great This inspires the morale of the warriors and uses the banner of faith to call on everyone to persevere in the fight.
Compared with the fanatical guards of Duanjieshan, the Azorean elves who rushed to the city wall appeared to be much "cold".
Knight staring at the brand new vow of armor on the opposite side, the wounded chief lieutenant Alexandra gasping in a low voice, the hot throat mixed with tears, sweat and blood. The breath comes in and out with the exhaled heat.
The long knife full of broken pieces lay sideways with the raised right arm, and the viscous plasma dripped continuously from the center of the blade; it fell on the bluestone board and turned into solidified "blood ice."
"Kill——!"
With the roars of both sides, the elves wielding long knives rushed to the vows of raising the battle flag as if they were dead, Knight, forming the shield wall Legion The soldiers launched an offensive.
There is no formation, let alone the anger of the commander, but these overly "silent" elves warriors are like a rushing "blade torrent", cutting brightly in front of the "black city wall" colour.
"pu!"
The cold long knife pierced the gap between the shields and pierced the soldier’s throat. With a wave of the sharp blade, the head flies up; but he hadn’t waited for the excitement. The elf warrior broke through the shield wall, and the battle halberd on both sides had already attacked him one after the other.
There were two more headless corpses on the midline of the fight, which were forcibly squeezed out of the defenders' defense by the shield wall in the back row.
In the next second, the two corpses were covered by the footsteps of each other and the spray of blood; the shield collided with the body, and the sound of the long knife and the battle halberd intertwined into a piece.
The zealous Legion soldiers are stubbornly against the shield wall, and the battle halberd in their hands is constantly splitting and stabs; almost everyone puts their shield on the back of the previous person and uses A front to share the pressure of the charge.
The silent Azorean warriors are more like silent wolves, desperately tearing the seemingly unbreakable shield wall of the Legion soldiers in various ways, using flesh and blood again and again. The body tried to conduct a breakthrough.
The narrow terrain between the city wall and the tunnel is both good and bad for each other; although the Duanjieshan defenders can block a certain front with very few troops, it also means that once they are defeated, The entire battlefront will immediately become riddled with holes;
The elven warriors who are restricted by the battlefield's mobility and space can also use each other's cooperation to complete the breakthrough; because the terrain is narrow and the enemy It is also a shield wall composed of large shields, and the range of attacks is also very limited.
Ordinary Azores long knives can't tear apart the iron armor, but they can break the shields and tear open gaps in the shield wall that cannot be closed, making the black city wall no longer safe.
But in any case, with the help of terrain and formation advantages, the Legion soldiers finally slowed down the elves' attack speed, confining the battlefield to the connection between the outer city wall and the second retaining wall.
The cruel scene of the fight against each other is also staged at this connection.
The elves, regardless of life and death, charged with their swords in the narrow terrain time and time again, and were blocked by the shield wall again and again, leaving thin corpses; and the seemingly strong shield wall continued. The gap was torn open, and the vacancy was barely sealed after a considerable amount of casualties.
In this dying, the Duanjieshan defenders who could not withstand the heavy casualties had to shrink their fronts and retreat to a deeper narrow front after leaving behind a corpse. The queue will not fall apart.
Seeing the warplane, the elves warriors did not hesitate, and immediately stepped over the corpses everywhere, and continued to attack the retreating Duanjieshan defenders.
But at this moment, the Legion soldiers who formed the shield suddenly squatted down and leaned the shield on their shoulders; exposed the back row of heavy crossbowmen who were lifting the crossbow and filling the aiming. .
"Fifteen steps, shoot--!"
The whistling black shadows and the sound of breaking air attacked the elven warriors without any cover, and the team that immediately charged was like cutting wheat. Pour down a piece.
"Ten steps, shooting——!"
One-knee kneels The fallen bowers threw down the heavy crossbows and picked up the shield and heavy sword; standing on the shield The Boys Hussars at the end of the wall raised their short bows and shot wildly at the elven warriors who had no intention of retreating.
The invisible dark shadows swiftly shuttle through the narrow passages-the formidable power of the short bows of the hussars is much smaller than that of the heavy crossbows, and it is even difficult for them to penetrate the enemy's body like crossbow arrows; but sharp His spiked arrow can tear open wounds, even stick into the flesh and hard to pull out, bleeding the enemy continuously.
More and more warriors fell, but none of them retreated, and none of them flinched; they continued to attack in silence, as if more roaring was a waste of murderous energy.
Five steps...
"The Boys, for the sake of Grand Duke Sarika, tore them--!"
With the bloodthirsty roar, The hussars who dropped their short bows held up their sabers and formed a "wedge-shaped formation" of cavalry charges.
blood light splash!
Different from the Legion soldiers who are good at frontline warfare, the warriors of Boye are as good at fighting alone and chaotic group battles as the wizard warrior, knowing how to protect themselves with flexible pace and speed;
p>And the sabers, hatchets, and daggers in their hands are all as good as the Azores long swords for melee weapons; at least for the flesh-and-blood elves and humans, both of them are cut to the body. There is no essential difference.
"The believers of the Holy Cross, charge—!"
Almost immediately after the Boyle Hussars finished their charge, the Legion soldiers who remained in the queue trot and charged at the same time. Entered the battlefield; the hussars caught in the melee were covered by the straight long thorn battle halberd and shield wall.
Such a tacit understanding of "step-rider coordination", after repelling the momentum of the elves warriors' charge, and slightly regaining a little room for counterattack, the battlefield is always limited to the original place, so that the elves We must not make progress.
"Clang——!"
As soon as the fire was splashing, the broken sword violently collided with the Knight heavy sword.
"In the name of the Holy Cross, villains who don’t believe in gods, go to hell!"
Knight, who swung the big sword, glared at the elf warrior, tightly The hands holding the hilt continue to increase their strength: "I pray that the Holy Cross will give you the most fair trial!" Alexandra, with trembling arms, bit her lower lip, with a long sword in her hand. ; Almost at the same time the great sword fell, an invisible arrow had already flown towards the chest of Oath Knight.
The way of warrior, guerrilla arrow!
"pu! ”
In the next second, the blood flower bloomed on Knight's chest; the burly body trembled suddenly, and the one-knee kneels fell, the one that had not yet been knocked down The big sword also fell to the ground vertically.
Now, go to hell!
"Clang——!"
The suddenly raised arm guard blocked the blade that was slicing towards the head, and the sharp blade even tore the armor, deep into the flesh and stuck in the arm bone superior.
But in this way, it is tantamount to taking away the blade of the elf warrior!
"Guardian of the doctrine of the Holy Cross, as the shield of defense, we... will not easily fall because of the pain of the flesh and blood!"
The bloody oath Knight Slowly got up and looked down at the pale-faced elf warrior: "Before banishing you villains who do not believe in gods into hell, I... will never embrace death."
"Even if chopped up ten- Thousand times by a thousand blades, if you wash yourself with blood, you will continue to fight! Even if you fall into hell, you will get up again and continue to stand!"
Alysandra, who lost his weapon, looked at The long sword that was taken away had an ugly expression on his face.
And at this moment...
"Boom——————————!!!!!!"
A sudden loud noise Coming from the direction of the outer retaining wall, all the people standing on the city wall trembled!
After that, the elves with different expressions and the guards of Duanjieshan almost unanimously turned their eyes to the direction of the rumbling sound.
This voice, is it because the city gate has already been...
………………
"Take it--!"
The elf warrior, who stood surrounded by countless pennants, looked at the gate of the Broken World Mountain Fortress opened in front of him with great excitement, and the corners of his mouth rose wildly.
Five days...No, it should be ten days!
From the first bloody battle with the defenders of the Duanjieshan Fortress, the desperate bloody battle until now...for five days...Finally...
It's ours!
The cold wind roared in the wilderness, rolling up the sound of "wu wu", making the elf warrior couldn't help but look back towards his adjutant: "Did you hear the voice just now?"
"I heard it." The guard replied respectfully: "It's the sound of the wind."
"No, that's the horn of victory!" The elf warrior intercepted with an excited expression: "It's broken." The sorrow of the Jieshan Fortress is that this desolate ice field is telling us that it is time to take this fortress!"
The guard immediately nodded and said yes.
"Send the entire army, everyone regardless of the front and rear teams, and no Avatars are high or low, everyone immediately launches a raid on the fortress of Broken Boundary Mountain, launching a full-scale offensive, and all enemies will be killed without mercy!"
"Don’t chase the enemy who is fleeing; don’t looting the warehouses and materials in the fortress; and annihilate all the enemies who are still resisting—even if the emperor of the empire is fleeing, don’t chase, let He is like a drowning dog, tired of running away!"
"Tonight, seize the city!"
