Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

Chapter 46 The Second Attack

At dawn, more than two thousand gnolls finished the remaining meat and gathered into the team amidst the scoldings of the gnoll clan leader.

Logos was riding on the back of a gnoll, and two strong gnolls beside him were carrying chain hammers, which served as temporary weapon racks.

"Commander, the assembly is complete and we are waiting for your orders." A Jackal clan leader stepped forward and said respectfully.

When the sun shone on the outer wall of the castle, Rogers got off the Jackal's back, picked up his weapon, and shouted an order: "Attack."

More than two thousand jackals howled and headed towards the castle like a tide.

Rogers held the hammer and followed the team, preparing for Qin Zhi's exit.

The other Jackal Silver Warriors were hiding in the team, trying to catch the opponent by surprise when they were about to climb the city wall.

Just like yesterday, the three-bow bed crossbow was the first to show its power, shooting iron arrows in the direction of the jackals.

"call out--"

An iron arrow flew past Luogesi and penetrated the two guards who were following him.

"Danger, scatter."

After hearing this, the other jackal guards dispersed one after another, no longer surrounding Logos.

In a short distance of two kilometers, within five minutes and after sacrificing the lives of hundreds of jackals, they successfully reached the outer city wall area.

The next moment, some of the gnolls threw stones and weapons to interfere with the city wall defenders, and some began to climb the city wall.

Soon, the battle became fierce, with blood splattering, screams and wails, and the sound of weapons clashing filling the entire outer city wall.

Many silver-level gnolls broke through the city wall and caused great damage to the soldiers defending the city, but they were quickly blocked by the silver knights.

Logos mingled among the crowd, his eyes fixed on the human nobleman at the top of the castle.

With his keen perception, the most threatening person in this castle and the one with the highest status must be this young human being.

As long as you kill him, taking this castle will be easy.

"leader."

A jackal came to Logos with a bloody iron arrow and handed it to him respectfully.

Rogers weighed the weight of the iron arrow, looking for the right moment.

The next moment, he began to exert his strength and throw it at the human nobles at the top of the castle.

Verin, who stood with his sword in his hand, looked at the iron arrow flying towards him, drew out his sword and cut it off, then looked at Logos who was hiding in the gnoll attacking team.

One person and one wolf looked at each other, and they both understood each other's thoughts.

"roar--"

After being discovered, Logos no longer hid, and with the help of climbing jackals, he climbed onto the city wall in a few seconds, brandishing a hammer, and smashed a dozen soldiers off the city wall, leaving them dead or alive.

Weilin looked at Rutgers with sharp eyes, jumped down from the platform, and landed steadily on the outer city wall.

"Human, today, you die and I live."

Rogers looked at Verin warily, his tone solemn.

"Then let's see who dies and who lives."

Weilin looked at the enemy in front of him seriously. It was very powerful, but he could deal with it.

The knight's long sword and the chain hammer intertwined and collided, which was also a battle between the two people's fighting spirit. The green light and the fiery red flames fought against each other, causing great damage to the city wall stacks.

Unconsciously, more than ten minutes have passed. One person and one wolf are in a stalemate, and no one can do anything to the other.

At this time, Orlando came to his side at some point and attacked from the flank while Rutgers was fighting with all his heart.

"Puff——"

One arm was abandoned high and fell on the city wall.

"Ouch——"

"Despicable humans."

Rogers covered his broken arm and said angrily.

"All means can be used against monsters." Weilin said without blushing, preparing to take down the jackal completely and end this turmoil.

Seeing two silver knights outflanking him, Rogers jumped off the city wall without hesitation and ordered his bodyguards to fend off the pursuers.

Seeing this, Verin jumped off the wall, followed closely by Orlando.

Dozens of tall gnolls formed a simple formation to stand between the fleeing Logos and Verin.

"Kill them."

Most of these gnolls were low-level and mid-level bronze, and they were completely vulnerable to the two silver knights, Verin and Orlando.

In less than ten minutes, they were all beheaded.

However, this also gave Rutgers enough time to escape.

Not long after, the attacking gnolls heard the sound of retreat, dragged the bodies of their companions, and began to retreat.

This siege battle lasted less than two hours and ended, but it was several times more brutal than yesterday. The blood had stained the outer city wall red, and the corpses of jackals were intertwined with the corpses of our own soldiers.

After being out of danger, Rogers immediately summoned the surviving Jackal clan leaders to prepare to issue new orders.

A few days ago, there were seventeen, but now there are only nine left, all with injuries.

Everyone's expressions were solemn, including Rutgers, who had long lost the previous ease.

"Humanity is very powerful in this battle. There are fifteen Silver Knights, which is a great force."

"I guess that this is a human outpost, and the real territory of the human nobles is behind it, so I decided to detour here and attack the human territory behind to make up for the losses."

"Yes, Commander."

The remaining nine gnolls responded, their words revealing that they wanted to leave this place of death as soon as possible.

In order to prevent the human nobles in the castle from attacking, Rogers immediately asked the chef to light a fire and cook, and asked his jackals to set off immediately after they were full, so as not to stay in this place, to avoid accidents.

On the other side, after Weilin counted the casualties and compared them with the captured ones, he felt a little balanced.

In this battle, 117 people died, 13 of them were regular troops, and the rest were serfs. In addition, 226 people were injured.

In this battle, a total of 687 heads of ordinary jackals, 167 bronze-level jackals, and 5 silver-level jackals were captured, and the rest of the bodies were taken back by the other side.

"Baird, prepare a group of people and prepare tonight..."

At this time, Knight Randolph came in, knelt on one knee, and reported respectfully: "My lord, the scouts reported that the gnolls disappeared and were suspected to be heading east."

After hearing this, Weilin swallowed back what he was about to say, and then said: "Deal with the bodies to avoid the plague."

"Yes, my lord."

After Baird took the order and left, Weilin supported his chin and began to think in his mind.

"Going to the east, that means they will come back, so we can intercept them halfway, rob them, and make up for our losses."

As for the losses of the nobles in the east, that was not his concern.

He blocked the gnolls here for a day and a night, killing more than a thousand gnolls. Whether it was for the kingdom or these nobles, he had done his best.
