MTL - Bloodline Lord of War-Chapter 126 Stormwind
Chapter 126 Breaking the Wind Fortress
【Outside the Wind Castle】
Tess rode the elf deer and stood at the head of the whole team. Behind her was the deer cavalry unit, as well as the remaining iron guards and half elves. Everyone lined up in a neat queue, the whole team was silent, ready to go, their eyes were shining hot in the dark night, staring intently at the wind castle in the distance.
Especially the remaining iron guards and half elves, they felt depressed and ashamed because they were not selected into the assault team, so everyone held back their energy and must tell Lord Baron through the next battle: We are not No worse than members of the Assault Squad.
"Woooooooh—"
Suddenly, the wind castle ahead sounded a loud horn sound. In the quiet night, the horn sound could be heard far away, and Tess and the others could hear it clearly.
The sound of the horn was the signal, and Tess knew that the baron must have entered the city.
She drew out her saber with a swipe, pointed forward, and shouted loudly: "Charge!"
The elf Luxue under Tess's crotch let out a roar immediately, and the four hooves exerted force at the same time, and rushed out first. Other deer cavalry followed closely behind, and the entire cavalry team ran wildly.
In order to meet the commando, the deer cavalry entered the state of full-speed sprint from the beginning, trying to rush to the Wind Castle at the fastest speed. The iron guards and half-elf troops were left behind in an instant, after all, they couldn't run on four legs.
…
【Inside the Wind Castle】
Baron Baron, wearing armor, hurried out of the gate of the lord's mansion. Outside the gate, an officer and several personal guards were already waiting there.
"What's going on? Report the situation." Baron asked nervously, frowning. He had just been woken up by the sound of a horn and didn't know what was going on.
"Lord Baron, the enemy has already entered the city." The officer panicked and hurried forward to report.
"Entered the city?!" Baron was taken aback, and immediately widened his eyes. "The city gate was breached?"
The officer replied: "The city gate has not been breached. The enemy climbed up from the north wall."
"North? The north is the Nutao River." Baron was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized. "Damn it, they must have fought from the Raging River!"
Balon was horrified. He thought that with the Raging River as a barrier, the north side of Wind Castle was absolutely safe. He never expected that Robin would launch an attack from the north and succeed.
At this time, a soldier of the Wind Castle came galloping on horseback, stopped suddenly in front of Baron, and reported out of breath: "My lord, a small group of enemies have entered the city, and they have opened the city gate!"
Balong's expression changed drastically immediately. He knew that once the city gate was opened, the enemy's main force would definitely take the opportunity to enter and cooperate with this small force.
At this critical moment, Baron did not mess around. He immediately ordered: "Command all the ministries to destroy this small army on the spot and take back the city gate!"
"Yes, my lord!" The soldier didn't dare to delay, so he immediately turned around and sent orders to go.
Balon and his personal guards got on their horses and rushed towards the city gate at full speed.
…
"Boom..."
Accompanied by a heavy sound, the gate of the Wind Castle was slowly pushed open.
"Iron Guards, line up in front of the city gate and guard the city gate!"
Robin slashed off the shoulder of a Windcastle defender with a short knife, and ordered loudly.
"Array! Arrange!" Simon also shouted loudly.
Under Robin's command, twenty iron guards quickly formed a human wall in front of the city gate, and they had to hold the city gate before the deer cavalry rushed over to support them.
The half-elves stood behind the iron guards, quickly reloading the crossbow with bolts.
At this time, reinforcements from Wind Castle rushed over from all directions like a tide, countless figures appeared in the dark night, and deafening shouts of killing could be heard everywhere.
Robin stood in front of the line of iron guards, holding a short knife in his right hand, and picked up a cross sword from the pile of corpses on the ground with his left hand. meaning.
"Ready to meet the enemy!"
Robin roared, the lightning sensor was activated, and the two weapons in his hand emitted a silver current with a "sizzling" sound.
The defenders of Windcastle wanted to take back the city gate, and the Raging Waves Legion wanted to defend the city gate. The battle became intense the moment the two sides came into contact.
There was a melee under the dark city gate, the clanging of weapons, the screams and screams of soldiers, and the sound of swords piercing flesh. All kinds of sounds mixed together, constantly stimulating everyone's eardrums.
The half-elf shot the first round of crossbow arrows, immediately drew out the dagger, and joined the ranks of close combat. Although the iron guards didn't wear heavy armor, their individual combat effectiveness was still much higher than ordinary soldiers in Wind Castle.
The iron guards collectively launched steel hardening skills to harden the main parts of the body and use hardening to protect important parts such as the head, internal organs, and neck.
Among the iron guards, Simon was the fiercest. He simply threw away the shield that was in the way, and his left hand was completely hardened. A soldier of the Windcastle slashed on his arm with his sword, as if he had slashed on an iron block, and made a "dang" sound. Simon's arm was intact, but the sword in the soldier's hand had a gap, and the hand holding the sword was also numb from the shock.
The Windcastle soldier looked at Simon's silver arm, then at the sword in his hand, and was stunned: Is this highlander's arm made of iron?
The Iron Bear Warrior grinned at him, smiling very honestly, and then he raised his hand with a knife, splitting the opponent's head in half.
Soon, the other iron guards also mastered the essence of this fighting method. They would first sell an opening to the enemy and deliberately let the soldiers of the Wind Castle chop off a piece of their body. In fact, they had already hardened this piece of body in advance. up. Under the protection of hardened steel, these soldiers can't hurt the iron guard at all, and the iron guard can take advantage of the gap between the enemy's moves to cut down the opponent cleanly.
Among the melee, Robin was definitely the most conspicuous. The two weapons in his hands flashed bright currents in the dark, and they waved like two silver light sticks.
These two "light sticks" not only look good, but their power is also deadly. All enemies who are hit are almost certain to die.
Robin was originally full of Titan power. Ordinary soldiers couldn't parry his attack at all. After attaching lightning to the weapon, the cutting force was even more astonishing and terrifying. These two ordinary weapons used magic weapons in Robin's hands. The general effect of a sharp weapon.
All the enemies that appeared in front of Robin, no one could block his blow. Blocking with a shield even cut the person and the shield in half, and blocking with a sword cut the sword and the person together. Robin killed people too quickly, and in a short while there was no man's land around him. He was covered in the blood of the enemy, and the corpses of the soldiers of the Wind Castle were covered under his feet.
But there are too many enemies, endlessly fighting out from the depths of the dark streets, as if they would never be able to finish killing them. What Baron gave them was a death order: take back the city gate at all costs.
Counting Robin's side, he only has thirty-one people. Although they occupy a favorable location, the terrain in front of the city gate is narrow, and the defenders of the Wind Castle cannot be fully deployed, but the enemy keeps rushing up, and Robin can still resist. The iron guards and half-elf behind them gradually couldn't hold on anymore, and the entire battle line began to retreat a little bit to the outside of the city gate.
At this time, the deer cavalry finally arrived.
Hearing the sound of galloping horseshoes behind him, Luke turned his head and couldn't help shouting excitedly: "Our reinforcements are here!"
Outside the city gate, Tess took the lead and rushed to the head of the entire team. Her gaze was like lightning, and the saber in her hand pointed straight ahead, shouting loudly: "Kill!"
The deer cavalry behind them immediately shouted: "Kill!"
The sound of cavalrymen shouting and killing, and the sound of galloping deer's hooves, these two sounds quickly moved from far to near. The deer's hooves trampled on the ground, as if the whole earth was trembling slightly. Hearing the enemy's cavalry approaching, the charge of the defenders of Wind Castle stopped immediately.
The iron guards inside the city gate immediately gave way to the deer cavalry, and the cavalry quickly passed through the city gate and rushed into the camp of the Wind Castle defenders.
The Windburg Army was not prepared for the cavalry charge at all. They were passive in this battle. Many soldiers just woke up from a dream and went into battle. The whole battle process was chaotic.
Their formation was loose, with mostly sabers and shields in their hands, and lack of weapons to face the cavalry. The whole formation was suddenly rushed to pieces by the deer cavalry. The deer cavalry hacked countless people to death with their knives, and the cavalry team was like a sharp knife, directly smashing the Wind Castle Army.
Inside the city gate is a main road leading directly to the interior of the Wind Fortress. The cavalry team rushed in along this main road, sullenly, and killed many enemies along the way.
Another troop of iron guards and half-elfs followed behind the deer cavalry. They arrived one step later than the deer cavalry.
After they rushed into the gate of the Wind Castle, they immediately replaced the commandos. The iron guards raised their heavy square shields, formed an airtight shield wall, and began to launch a counterattack against the Wind Castle defenders. The half-elves quickly climbed up the city wall, condescendingly firing at the Windcastle army.
Once the Legion of the Raging Waves gained a firm foothold in the Wind Castle, it would be impossible for the Wind Castle Army to drive them out again.
The iron guards and half-elves in front were fighting. Robin and the commando temporarily withdrew from the city gate. Although almost all of them were wounded, this was the best time to defeat the enemy in one go. Now was not the time to rest.
At this time, the logistics team led by Janna arrived, and they brought weapons and armor in a carriage.
"Quick, change all clothes!"
Robin yelled, and Janna and a few servants quickly brought his heavy armor over. They worked hard and put the three-layer heavy armor on Robin.
The other iron guards and half-elves of the commando immediately put on their heavy armor, took their original weapons, and prepared to go into battle.
Robin moved his shoulders, took his two-handed epee from the servant, and said to Janna: "Your task is completed, go back to the camp, it is dangerous here."
The red turban nodded vigorously, and said: "Master Baron, you must be careful."
The commandos changed their equipment again and lined up in front of Robin. Everyone took out the moon water and drank it quickly.
"Follow me and take down the Wind Castle tonight!"
Robin waved his hands, raised his two-handed sword, and led the assault team into the city gate without looking back.
…
Baron Baron stood on the roof of a private house. He saw stag cavalry rushing into the city, and saw the iron guards erecting a shield wall in front of the city gate, and the half-elves also took down the city wall. He desperately found that the wind castle could no longer be defended.
How terrifying the Raging Waves Legion is, he learned it last time. Only by relying on the defensive advantages of the city wall can he resist Robin's attack. Once the Raging Waves Legion enters the city and loses the protection of the city wall, it seems that there are many troops in his hand , but it is only a matter of time before it is eliminated.
Baron hated him so much, he wished he could cut Robin into pieces, deboning and gouging out his heart! But at this time, no matter how much he hated it, it was useless.
"My lord, what should we do?" The officer beside him asked, his face was pale, his eyes were full of fear, and he had obviously lost the will to fight.
The appearance of this officer is a true portrayal of the entire Windcastle Army at this time.
Balong's face was gloomy, and he sighed deeply: "Staying here is a dead end, let's go, abandon the city!"
"Then what about our army?" the officer asked in astonishment. "There are still many soldiers fighting."
"The success or failure of this war is over, I can't care about that much anymore." Baron's tone was cold, without the slightest hesitation.
…
Although the Wind Castle Army has more troops, as long as the army collapses, no amount of numbers will help. After Baron left, the remaining remnants lost their command and collapsed immediately.
Robin led the iron guards and half-elfs, along the main road of Wind Castle, and rushed straight into the city. Soon, they hit Baron's lord's mansion.
Simon stepped forward and kicked open the gate of the lord's mansion. Robin led the people and then filed in. The servants and maids in the lord's mansion ran away in fright. Robin didn't bother to talk to these servants. They circled around, but did not find Baron's figure.
"Strange, where did Baron go?" Robin angrily thrust his two-handed sword into the ground, and the tip of the sword sank deeply into the ground.
The servants and maids were captured by the iron guards and squatted in a row by the wall. Simon asked one by one, and came back to report to Robin: "Boss, they don't know where Baron is either."
At this time, Luke hurried over and told Robin: "My lord, our people saw a group of Windcastle cavalry running towards the south."
"Cavalry?" Robin frowned, and then guessed. "It must be Baron! There are several of them."
Luke replied: "Just six people."
Robin nodded, turned back and said to Simon: "There are still remnants in the Wind Castle, and I will leave the rest to you. Before I come back, I must eliminate all the remnants of the Wind Castle, and give me complete control over the entire city." Got it, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Simon immediately replied loudly.
Robin drew out his two-handed sword, walked quickly outside, and told Luke: "Go, get me a war horse, I'm going to chop off Baron's head!"
"Are you going alone?" Luke asked.
Robin smiled confidently, and asked, "Isn't it enough for me alone?"
