my fortress

Chapter 22 Burn it!Slave Legion
Yifei looked at the five big fat men and the slave soldiers outside the gate of the mercenary office, with a certain mind, he instantly divided them into five teams.

He looked at the participating barriers outside the city, especially the barrier where the voice sounded, and smiled excitedly.

Strike, my army of slaves, and burn!

Led by the slave overseer, a dense crowd of slave soldiers rushed out of the city gate holding torches high, divided into five small teams, and rushed towards the barriers outside the city.

Surrounded by the slave soldiers, the slave overseer waved the long whip in his hand, and a shield-shaped cursor appeared above the slave soldiers' heads.

"Squeaky..."

Where the slave soldiers passed by, the rafts were quickly set ablaze. Even though the rafts were made of fresh trees, under the inherent characteristics of the system (everything is burned), those rafts In the blink of an eye, it turned into a group of burning fireballs.

After hearing the "pleasant" sound from the burning rafts outside the city, Yifei smiled even brighter.

In the blink of an eye, the barriers near the city wall turned into blazing fires under the double cleaning of the oil tank throwers and slave soldiers. A large number of lizardman archers escaped from behind the barriers, and they were instantly killed by a group of people. Arrows are given in place.

At this time, Yifei found that the charging orc cavalry stopped suddenly, then turned around neatly, and galloped towards the orc camp in the distance!

The crisis is finally resolved, and the rest is time to vent your anger!
Looking at the scene outside the city, Yifei said proudly in his heart.

"!@#￥%..."

"@#￥%..."

That familiar voice sounded again, and at this moment, hearing this voice, Yifei felt even more at ease.

Although he couldn't understand what those words meant, the hasty tone in the words let him know that the enemy hiding there finally panicked.

Hahaha, finally it's my turn, burning, my legion of slaves.

At this time, the scattered slave soldiers began to gather together, holding up their torches and rushing towards the few remaining barriers!
"!@#￥%..."

The voice became more urgent!
With the sound of that sound, a large number of arrows flew out from behind the wooden shield, flying towards the slave soldiers, and a rain of arrows fell on the running slave soldiers.

At this moment, a surprising scene happened. When the falling arrow fell on the slave soldier's head, it was blocked by an invisible thing, and none of the slave soldiers who were running wildly fell down.

Hahaha, this is the horror of the slave overseer!
Under the command of the slave overseer, the slave soldiers who were not strong in combat and were like cannon fodder, although their attack power had not been improved, their defense was directly close to that of a swordsman in heavy armor.

At the same time, their running speed still did not decrease by any point.

In the blink of an eye, several wooden shields along the way were set on fire by the slave soldiers, and the lizardmen archers hiding behind the wooden shields had to escape from behind the wooden shields.

At this time, the archers standing on the high tower immediately shot the long arrows in their hands, and accurately shot the lizardman archers whose figures were exposed.

At this time, there was a more urgent shout from behind the wooden shield in the distance. As for what it meant, Yifei couldn't understand a word.

But the next scene let him know that the enemies outside the city were fighting desperately!

He saw the lizard man hiding behind the wooden shield begin to use various evasive postures to roll out from behind the wooden shield and shoot out the long arrow in his hand.

The long arrow shot out, with a layer of green light, the arrow directly penetrated the light shield above the slave soldier's head and hit the flying slave soldier, the slave soldier who was hit by the arrow immediately fell down!
Hey, if the slave soldiers were not so fragile, the slave soldiers with the slave overseer commander is also a pretty good combination!
Seeing this scene, Yifei sighed in his heart.

"Whoosh whoosh."

Immediately afterwards, he heard the sound of air tearing in his ears, and saw the archers standing on the high tower shoot out the long arrows in their hands, and those lizard archers who jumped out in various postures were without exception. fell in a pool of blood.

Seeing this scene, Yifei couldn't help being overjoyed. He didn't feel distressed at all by exchanging slave soldiers with the enemy. What's more, now that his strength exceeds the standard, he must clear them out. It is already the best choice.

So he commanded the slave soldiers to continue to charge forward!

As time passed, the wooden shields outside the city were set ablaze by the slave soldiers one by one, and the lizardman archers hiding behind the wooden shields also went underground to serve Hades.

At this time, there was only one barrier left outside the city, and that was a large barrier composed of several wooden shields.

Seeing this scene, Yifei turned his attention to the city - the group of tauren warriors who were still struggling!
At this time, he found that the red light in the eyes of those berserk tauren warriors had faded, and they were no longer as wild as before. .

From prosperity to decline, they were immediately suppressed by the Crusaders swordsmen and spearmen. The queue of Tauren warriors was killed and retreated steadily, and the entire army was about to be wiped out.

The tauren warriors finally panicked and feared. They did not expect that the dozens of human soldiers in front of them were so tenacious that they could withstand their berserk attacks. Some tauren warriors even held their hands The long ax turned and ran towards the outside of the city.

Just when they were not a few meters away from the city wall, the crossbowmen who had been waiting for them for a long time easily shot the crossbow arrows into their bodies from behind them one by one. For crossbowmen, iron armor is no different from paper.

Another few minutes passed, and the demoralized tauren warriors were finally wiped out.

Through the system interface, Yifei found that after a big battle, only a small half of the soldiers left to fight in the city, none of the soldiers who came out of the first batch before died, but the blood bars of each individual had turned red Well, even Robbie, the most powerful security officer he thought, had only a little bit of blood left at this time.

As for the soldiers recruited later, even those halberd soldiers known as the main force of the legion, there are only a few of more than 20 soldiers left.

Seeing this scene, he hastily ordered the surviving soldiers to return to the city to rest immediately. These soldiers who have experienced the test of the battlefield are precious wealth.

At the same time, according to his instructions, the slave soldiers began to run towards the last wooden shield outside the city.

……

"My lord, let's just withdraw like this, don't we rush?"

At the moment when the wooden shield under the city wall was burned by fire, the charging orc knight was ordered to stop the charge. Karl came to Wald's side very puzzled, and asked suspiciously.

"Rush to die now?" Wald said coldly.

"What about the Patriarch Madein and the others?" Karl asked in a low voice, pointing to a group of lizardman archers hiding behind wooden shields not far away.

"They, hehe..." Wald laughed happily as he looked at the lizard archer hiding behind the wooden shield in the distance.

This group of idiots who wanted to take credit for him, he didn't bother to care about their lives. Anyway, they were not big figures in the empire, but just a young patriarch of a vassal race, and they died when they died.

Hearing Wald's words, Carl's whole heart turned cold.

As soon as they retreated, the fate of Madein and the others could be imagined. At this moment, he made up his mind that he would never participate in front-line battles again. A tribe like them was simply insignificant in the hearts of the great figures of the empire.

"My lord, what should we do next?" Thaker immediately understood Wald's meaning and asked in a low voice.

At this moment, suddenly a wolf rider ran over quickly, came to Wald and Thaker, handed a rolled up animal skin, and whispered: "My lord, a letter from the shadow!"

Wald took the animal hide from the wolf rider, unfolded it, his expression changed drastically, and he said hastily.

"Retreat, order the entire army to retreat!"

"My lord, what's the matter?" Sark asked hastily.

"Their reinforcements have arrived." Wald said while handing the animal skin in his hand to Thaker.

"The Thorn Knights! How is that possible? Why did they come?" Thaker said inadvertently, his face turned pale after reading the contents of the animal skin.

Wald didn't say much when he heard Thaker's words, but turned around and ran in the direction of the Khakid Mountains.

"Woooooooo..."

The battle horn rang, and the wolf knight and wild boar knight outside the city turned around and followed Wald directly, and ran towards the Khajid Mountains! , regardless of the life and death of the dozens of lizardmen hiding behind the wooden shield.
