Chapter 903 905 Servant Army"Shield!" Accompanied by the strong shouts of Alanhill Imperial officers, a line of neatly armored The demon soldiers raised their shields.
Amid the rumble of war drums and the rumble of cannons next to each other, these demon soldiers, taking small steps, moved slowly towards a castle in the distance.
Although these demons are not as ferocious and unstoppable as the demons who invaded the magic world before, they are brightly armored and at least they look like they have several points of elite troops.
It's just that the uneven's team betrayed them. This unit has not undergone any decent training at all. They are not qualified warriors at all, but just some appearances.
However, Alanhill's military does not recommend using these improvised pieces, and they don't feel bad about the cheap, low-value armors that are stamped out.
In the eyes of the high-level officers of the Alanhill Empire, the armors distributed to the demon troops are at best the same level of armor as the steel helmets they used in the early years, and they are basically things that can be replenished at any time.
"Hold on!" The commanders of the Alanhill Empire stopped their progress just beyond the range of the bows and arrows of the opposing demon army. They stood where they were, ceding command to the demon commanders who continued to accompany the demon army on the offensive.
These low-level demon commanders were all low-level demons who were temporarily requested, or some middle- and lower-level demon officers. They were also fighting for humans for the first time, so they seemed a little overwhelmed and in a hurry.
"Stabilize the formation! Raise the magic defense barrier!" After entering the opponent's range, the attacks of both sides began to become bloody.
Alanhill's long-range resource artillery has not stopped, they are still roaring, pouring densely packed ammunition into the castle in the distance.
And the demon defenders in the distance also started to fight back. They used bows and arrows like raindrops to meet the enemies who were close to them.
"Above your head! Bows and arrows are coming! Raise your shield! Raise your shield!" A demon servant army officer who drew out his saber saw the arrow rain oncoming, and immediately shouted in his hoarse voice shouted loudly.
As he shouted, the nervous demon soldiers raised their shields above their heads in the not-so-orderly square formation.
The steel-skinned shield covers the entire phalanx of infantry, like layers of fish scales. In the next second, countless magical anti-defense bows and arrows fell, hitting the magical defense barrier above the shield.
The crackle's sound made the soldiers of the Demon Servant Army within the magical defense barrier even more nervous. Most of them were a group of civilians who had never experienced such a terrifying battle.
To be honest, they would have peace of mind to let them bully the weak and eat something of the same kind, but they are still too "young" to face the real battle.
"Crack..." As more and more bows and arrows fell, the magic defense barrier couldn't hold on, and an obvious crack appeared. Then, the crack began to spread, and eventually the entire defensive barrier shattered.
"Om..." A bow and arrow fell from the sky, penetrated the gap between the shields, and plunged into the soil under the feet of a servant, the feathers at the end of the arrow shaft were still vibrating. write.
"Whoosh..." Another feather arrow passed through the gap in the shield and directly pierced the shoulder of a demon servant army soldier.
The soldier screamed and fell on his back, and several feather arrows flew into the top of his exposed head immediately. His entire body was turned into a hedgehog by feather arrows, and the soldiers around him fell one after another because they lost their side protection.
Because the queue was not pulled neatly, too many gaps and weak spots were exposed, so this round of arrows fell, and hundreds of soldiers of the Demon Servant Army fell in the pool of black blood. There are hundreds of wounded, lying on the ground kept screaming and wailing.
"Steady! Steady!" A demon officer dissipated the magic defense barrier above his head, holding his long sword high and loudly reminding his soldiers to stabilize their positions.
To be honest, the war scene he faced at this time was the one he was familiar with. So at this moment, he seems more skilled and more calm.
He was even a little moved, because the war pattern he was familiar with came back to him. This feeling was really nostalgic, as if he had seen an old friend for many years.
Before this, he even thought that he would never see such a picture again. When fighting against humans, everything he had to face was far more cruel than it is now.
"Go ahead! Hold the formation!" In the distance, there are other demon officers shouting loudly.
Their extraordinary bravery, in the face of the war they were familiar with, showed their composure and high quality, even the Alanhill officers who watched the battle from a distance admired them.
"It's not bad to have such a level after only 15 days of training." An Alanhill officer held a telescope and looked at the messy demon servant army in the distance. The irony is still complimenting.
"I think it's possible to revise the training manual and put them on the battlefield after a month of training, and they may perform better." Another staff officer analyzed each minding their own business.
"They don't need to behave well... They just need to be loyal and willing to die for the Emperor Your Majesty." The officer still holding the telescope said coldly.
"It should be at least 25 days of training... Otherwise, the death rate will remain high, and it will not be easy to recruit these demons into the army in the future." The staff officer thought long-term and suggested.
Putting down the telescope, the Alanhill general thought for a few seconds and agreed with the staff officer's suggestion: "You are right...after all, they are willing to atone for their sins, and we should give them a chance... Just one month! The next batch of demon servants will be trained for one month, and then see the effect!"
In the distance, the sound of war drums and cannons still did not stop, everywhere On the battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke, the black Alanhill Imperial Eagle Flag fluttered lightly in the wind.
The phalanx that was advancing little by little was still uneven, and every time the arrow rained, many soldiers fell down screaming. However, these phalanxes were still squirming forward, a little bit closer to the castle guarded by the enemy.
No matter what, they have to take this castle. This is a test for them. Only those who survive are eligible to enjoy the lunch prepared for them by the Alanhill Empire.
