Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

Chapter 80: The border of Cardero Province - Battle of Lumen Nanshan

On the earthen wall of the Lumen Nanshan Fortress, Weilin was fully armed, standing under the military flag, holding his sword, within the sight of all soldiers and officers.

The busy soldiers looked in the direction of the military flag from time to time, feeling at ease.

"Attack."

The giant ratman Tucker roared, and the ratmen soldiers behind him automatically retreated dozens of meters.

The ten ratmen plague priests behind the giant ratman picked up the plague war drum and began to beat it regularly.

Affected by the drum sound, thousands of goblins and dog-headed men had bloodshot eyes, their limbs and bones were mutated, spikes grew, and their backs bulged. The stench swept the entire battlefield, and all the surrounding trees withered.

After a while, the drum sound suddenly changed, and thousands of plague sources charged towards the Lumen Nanshan Fortress.

"The plague source of the ratman is only active for three hours. If you can hold on, you will win."

"Now, wrap the exposed skin and prepare for battle."

Officers at all levels issued orders in an orderly manner, and the soldiers followed the orders one by one, taking out clean cloth strips from the gaps in the inner armor, wrapping their hands, feet, mouths and noses, leaving only their eyes outside.

"Archers, shoot."

On the city wall, hundreds of archers first fired three rounds of volleys at the plague source, and then fired freely, shooting all the arrows in their hands in the shortest time.

Hundreds of dog-headed plague sources running in the front were shot and killed, but it still did not slow down the speed of the plague source.

"Warriors, move forward and prepare to meet the enemy."

The archers retreated, and the soldiers with knives and guns stepped forward, staring closely at the plague source that was approaching below.

The sharp and piercing sound resounded throughout the fortress, constantly testing the soldiers' psychological endurance.

"Puff"

The plague source bodies that climbed up the city wall were eliminated one by one, and the foul juice carrying the plague virus covered the entire earth wall, corroding the gravel mixed in it.

As time went on, soldiers kept losing their hands and were torn into pieces by being pulled off the city wall.

Weilin stood on the general platform, watching everything that happened on the city wall, with a blank expression on his face and some ripples in his heart.

As the spiritual pillar of the army, he could not show any expression on the battlefield.

"Kill, the adults are watching us."

"There is still half an hour, these monsters will lose their activity, hold on."

Soldiers were constantly scratched, but they were soon lifted down and took the diluted water of life to treat their injuries and remove the plague virus.

The war was gradually coming to an end, and thousands of plague source bodies that could still move stopped moving instantly, lying softly on the ground, and quickly decayed into a pool of liquid.

Although the plague source bodies had all lost their activity, the soldiers guarding the city still did not dare to relax at all, and the group of real monsters had not yet started the attack.

"Master, the war is over."

The giant ratman Tucker looked at the half-dragon next to him cautiously, and humbly reported to the ratman wizard Tattersall.

"Withdraw the troops and wait to take over the fortress tomorrow." The ratman wizard stopped meditating and ordered the giant ratman.

"Yes, my master."

In the puzzled eyes of the defense army, the monster army began to evacuate in an orderly manner.

"Master, why is this?" Kyle asked with some confusion.

"Things are not that simple. Let all the soldiers have a good rest and take potions to avoid the spread of plague."

"Yes."

After Kyle left, Weilin looked at the monster army that disappeared from his sight, his face a little solemn.

With the presence of ratmen, you must be careful of poisoning.

This is a slang widely circulated among the nobles in this world.

Afterwards, Weilin ordered that no groundwater should be drunk, which caused an uproar in the army for a while, and then was suppressed by officers at all levels.

At night, in the monster camp, the rat wizard sat by the fire and warmly entertained two half-dragons.

"Tattersall, if you can't take this earthen fort tomorrow, you know the consequences." A half-dragon stared at the rat wizard and warned.

"I know, I know, just go and accept the earthen fort tomorrow." The rat wizard smiled and said confidently.

"Humph, conspiracy, the rats are indeed a lowly and dirty race." Another half-dragon said with disdain.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Faced with the ridicule of the half-dragon, the rat wizard could only respond humbly.

Others have the support of the half-dragon patriarch and the legendary red dragon, while he is just a rat without background.

If it weren't for the profession of wizard, he would have been thrown into the most intense battlefield as a cannon fodder army commander.

Late at night, in the Lumen Nanshan Castle, a large number of soldiers were thirsty and extremely dehydrated, and kept licking their lips.

Looking at the well guarded by the knight's attendants, and the officers constantly patrolling the camp, many soldiers gave up the idea of ​​grabbing water. They were puzzled as to why the superiors gave such an order.

The next morning, it started to drizzle, and the thirsty soldiers took off their helmets and pointed their mouths to the sky to enjoy the gift from heaven.

Looking at the drizzle outside the window, Weilin licked his cracked lips and smiled. God was really helping him.

Yesterday he was not sure whether the groundwater had been polluted, so he prohibited everyone from drinking groundwater.

He knew something about the methods of the ratmen, so he had to do this.

After eating the dry black bread, the soldiers guarding the city were on high alert to prevent sudden attacks by monsters.

"Everyone hide behind the parapets, don't show your head, and wait for orders."

"Tucker, take people to take over the castle. I think those humans must have died." The rat wizard said confidently, "Don't destroy the human corpses. They are the resources for my promotion."

"Yes, Little Mouse understands."

The giant ratman Tucker led the ratman army and swaggered towards the city wall.

"Sir, I seemed to see the figure of a human just now?" A ratman soldier wiped his eyes and dared not to speak.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The giant ratman Tucker slapped the ratman soldier, hitting him and making him turn around on the spot, and then fell directly to the ground.

"The master said that these humans are dead, so they are dead."

The other ratman soldiers heard this and shut their mouths, not daring to say another word.

When the group of ratmen approached the earth wall for more than 200 meters, more than 500 archers stood up and shot arrows.

"Shoot."

Looking at the sudden bows and arrows, the giant ratman grabbed two ratman soldiers on the spot as shields and ran to the back in a flash.

The rest of the ratmen soldiers followed suit and retreated.

The monster left behind more than 600 ratmen corpses and retreated in disgrace.

"Tattersall, this is what you said, take over the earthen fortress." A half-dragon asked in a deep voice, holding a sword.

"Impossible, they can't not replenish water after the war, they must have fallen into a trap." The rat wizard shook his head and said.
