Chapter 478: Comeback (The next three days leave)
At the same time, the battle between Roddy and the "Virida Cross" has entered a stalemate.
The pagan infantrymen waved their weapons frantically, trying to forcefully break the defense line formed by barbarian warriors. However, as the battle progressed, they found that the tower-like guys in front of them did not take a step back at all!
Countless soldiers cursed in a low voice, gradually changing from their initial high fighting spirit to helplessness and despair...
Why do these people wear thickened fine iron heavy armor?!
This material is often only equipped with "heavy armored knights" regardless of cost. Ordinary people will probably be exhausted if they run a hundred meters after putting it on. However, these barbarians are as relaxed as if they are wearing leather armor. With their almost unlimited physical strength, they hold a shield in one hand and firmly hold the defense line!
The first batch of "Virer Cross" infantry rushing up were generally equipped with one-handed swords and one-handed swords. This kind of weapon is fine against light armor units, but stabbed heavily on heavy armor but only left a trace. On the contrary, the larger version of the "Erondgar Long Sword" in the hands of barbarian soldiers is amazingly powerful. Every time they stab or slash, they create a kind of despair of "no hiding" - "height and long arms" are absolutely deadly advantage on the battlefield. Although each barbarian soldier uses one-handed weapons, their attack range is definitely no less than that of ordinary people using "two-handed weapons".
So no matter how desperate the troops of the "Viridian Cross" fight, they can only compress the front line, but they can't open the situation at all!
Frando looked at all this, and his originally contented mood disappeared-
"How could this happen!? The reserve team pressed up! The cavalry attacked from the flanks! Disrupt their positions! They can't let them carry on like this!"
The reason why I was so anxious was that Frando also understood what the huge "holy seal" meant, but the war had begun. At this time, he would inevitably be chased by the opponent's head, and it would definitely be a one-sided collapse situation...
He actually had no choice.
"Take all attack methods out! No need to retain magic!"
Frando shouted to the two mages with red eyes.
The infantry troops have now pressed 70%. Now Frando and eighty mercenaries formed the final reserve team in the rear. Everyone's eyes were staring at the stalemate line of defense ahead. As long as there was a trace of flaw, they would press all over and destroy the enemy.
The two mages desperately released one spell after another - the "fireball technique" suitable for the battlefield is the best way to break through positions, but these two elemental mages immediately discovered... no matter how their spell attacks, the powerful fireball will be weakened by an invisible barrier when it flies to the front.
When they exploded on the soldiers, all the barbarians or "Dragon Spear Knights" who were hit all got up quickly after falling to the ground for a moment. As the "intermediate healing technique" fell on them, they would join the battle group expressionlessly...
"Nefi, left!"
"OK!"
Faced with the sudden battle, Roddy did not let Nefi just watch the show, but assigned her several simple tasks - the "energy separation barrier" that weakened the power of the spell is one of them.
Logically speaking, her spell level at this time cannot make "Fireball" "harmless", but the high resistance of the "Dragon Slayer Mark" on the Dragon Spear Knight, the defense of the expensive armor and the BUFF of Akasha, made these soldiers already have the capital to not be afraid of magic attacks.
If the high military spending continues, it will always be a big news. Almost most of the assets that Roddy has accumulated over the past two years are used to upgrade the armed forces, so he was not surprised at all when he was "indestructible" at this time.
The barbarian soldiers were not of high level. Although they had physical advantages, they inevitably had "sacrifice" under constant impact. However, once these injured big guys fell down, they were immediately dragged to the back of the position by their companions for treatment. The iron barrel-like armor kept them safe from fatal blows. Therefore, after a full ten minutes of fighting on the entire front, none of the more than 30 scalpers died.
Most of them were reorganized into a reserve team after being treated with potions or magical techniques, and were ready to go to the front line again at any time!
What is the comparison between war? After all, it is about competing for resources: I burn a lot of money, have good equipment, rich experience, strong military resources, and when the hard bridge and horse are right in front, I am more tough than you!
In contrast, although the magicians of the "Virgium Cross" have greatly reduced the mortality rate, the gap in the "war loss ratio" is constantly widening...
The sound of horse hooves sounded from the north side of the battlefield, and the cavalry that "Virer Cross" charged forward was attacked and intercepted by the guards of the Duke's Mansion led by the Knights of Titus and Wellington. Although these pagan knights were far stronger than the private soldiers of the nobles just now, facing the two great knights who had advanced more than 20 levels, their attacks could not threaten the core position of Sally.
"Sir Bishop! We can't break through!"
"Press up...it's all!"
Cold sweat was flowing down Frando's forehead, but at this time he had no choice: if the mission was not completed, it would be a dead end to go back by himself!
But just when his heart was in a state of confusion, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded on the south side of the battlefield.
Turning his head and looking at Bishop Frando suddenly felt like he fell into an ice cave: Forty fully armed light armored knights were rushing out of the dense forest. The rose cross badge on their shields was extremely conspicuous, allowing everyone to identify their identities at a glance.
"It's a pagan-damn it! It's a trap!"
When Frando saw the "Sacred Seal", he was still lucky and thought that Sally might be bluffing. However, when he really saw the genuine "Rose Cross" troops appear, how could he not know that he was being plotted?
That guy Milno sold me?
Or does the royal family believe that the "Viridian Cross" needs to be "balanced"?
This is the sorrow of being a chess piece. Frando couldn't figure out who wanted to die...
But such emotions just flashed away. He knew very well that there was no time to think about anything. If he wanted to survive, he had to fight to the death!
Frando, without saying a word, held his staff tightly and went on battle himself. As a high-level priest, he came up with a large-scale "Holy Word: Courage" to stabilize the soldiers' morale. Then he followed two group healing techniques, allowing the wounded soldiers in the back to quickly get up and join the battle...
"The mage stops attacking and assists in defense!"
He shouted orders to the side, but the elemental mage not far away screamed in shock, and was shot through the chest by an arrow amid the shattering of the "middle-level mage armor". Seeing this, Frando released three protective shields to protect himself without saying a word. His vision swept across the mage who had lost his breath, gritted his teeth and bent forward.
The defense of the "middle-level mage armor" is similar to that of the elite iron heavy armor, and ordinary arrows are simply ineffective, but the scene in front of him tells him a fact... There is a powerful archer in the opponent's battle formation who can "name" them and other mages at any time!
In modern warfare, the "sniper" is the master of small-scale battles, and Roddy is the same now.
This horn bow named "Acupuncturer" is one and a half times higher than the "Ice Crystal Thorn". When combined with the aggravated armor-breaking arrows, the "theoretical damage value" of each arrow is almost the same as that of Elvin's full force to slash the axe...
In other words, Roddy's attack power has far exceeded those mages, becoming the "battery" with the highest damage output on this battlefield - when he really takes full advantage of his full force, no one can imagine how powerful it is.
The soldiers of the "Viridian Cross" doubled their pressure after Roddy took action: In addition to the elemental master who was shot directly, the magicians protected by shields also began to be "named" one by one. After twelve arrows passed through the battlefield, three magicians were shot directly, and the rest were seriously injured and fell to the ground!
All the other casters bent over and dared not show their heads. The morale of the entire attacking army was suppressed by Roddy alone.
Nefi looked at Roddy beside her, his eyes widening. When Roddy came to save her, she knew Roddy was very strong, but she never thought that he would have advanced to such a state in half a year - and Roddy didn't notice Nafi's gaze at this time. He just shouted at Sodlor in front of him: "Prepare to fight back!"
Sodlor responded with a sword swing, Roddy's eyes turned back to the front, shot several arrows one after another to suppress the magicians, then looked to the other side and shouted: "Sally, Akasha, blessings of power in the front row!"
The two priests who were not usually interested in each other did not talk nonsense at this moment. They immediately raised their hands to cast spells. The milky white light covered the entire soldiers in front of them in three seconds...
"Guys - Shield Strike!"
At the front, Erwin shouted this command with the unique "fighting roar" of the barbarians. The next moment, all the soldiers holding tower shields took a step back and rushed forward with a sudden shield under the huge force brought by "power blessings"-
"boom!"
More than 30 tower shields burst out in the process of contacting the enemy. The "Virgate Cross" soldiers in the front row were collectively hit by a car, and all of them staggered and fell backwards!
The next moment, the barbarian infantry regiment followed three steps, stabbed forward in his hand, and pulled out...
A whole row of enemies was knocked down directly.
"Second time-Shield strike!"
"boom!"
Another wave of neat collective impact, the front line of the "Virgium Cross" was repelled more than ten meters in a few seconds. Such a terrible situation finally made them unable to resist the blow and a collapse occurred.
"kill!"
The barbarian soldiers were completely red in their eyes, but the pagans who had been fighting in front of them seemed to be stunned and began to retreat involuntarily.
The situation on the battlefield often develops in a "snowball-like" manner. Once morale begins to fall and if various means are not raised as soon as possible, the soldiers will soon fall into boundless confusion and fear.
Bishop Frando understood this truth. He gritted his teeth and wanted to cast the magic trick. However, when he raised his eyes, he saw that most of the shield was "crackling" under the impact of three arrows. If he had not avoided quickly, the last arrow almost shot his ears through...
Too scary.
Frando had a lot of combat experience at all, but he never thought that someone could suppress almost all spellcasters on his side with bows and arrows...
What to do now? If you don’t stop the decline, I’m afraid this battle will completely fail!
"Hold on! Hold on! Our reinforcements will arrive soon!"
In desperation, he shouted loudly at the soldiers in front of him, but even he himself didn't believe how much morale could be restored.
At this time, forty cavalrymen of the "Rose Cross" had entered the battlefield, and the infantry array on their front was retreating step by step. No matter how you look at it, it would be a dead end...
But just when Frando was desperate, a bright track suddenly appeared in his vision - a fireball flew straight from behind Sally's team, and it landed in Roddy's position with great accuracy.
"boom!"
The fireball exploded on the ground, and the shattered horse corpse and blood mist mixed with impact dispersed around, instantly shocking Akasha, Naifie and the five soldiers. Even Sally, who was not far away, almost fell off the horse!
The army is most afraid of being attacked from both sides, and even more so that the commander is "beheaded". Now this scene immediately slows down the barbarian soldiers who have just started to rush into their momentum...
Frando couldn't believe that there was still a "turnover" moment in the battle. He stood up and rushed into the team in ecstasy, and began to use various magical techniques to desperately pick up a long sword. After he picked up a long sword himself, he forced the soldiers who regained their morale to start a counterattack!
"There is still hope...and hope!"
