Mount & Blade: Wind of War

Chapter 433 Attack and Defense

Behind the thick walls of Lonely Mountain Castle, there are a total of 4,000 medium-armored longbowmen, 2,000 of whom have been blessed with "Go for broke" by the Light Priests.

So that the arrows thrown down are like a rain of light, spinning, with a terrifying penetrating force, directly shooting and killing the charging ancient orc warriors outside the wall.

The average combat power of the ancient orc warriors is only level 2 to 3, although it is one to two levels higher than the average combat power of the human empire warriors, but the level 3 and level 9 medium-armored longbowmen are blessed with enhancement magic, and their attack power has reached level 4.

The most important thing is that the medium-armored longbowmen basically fight without damage. With their bow and arrow throwing technology, they make it difficult for the ancient orc legion that is charging the city to fight back even if they want to.

Resarit's command is very stable. After a round of arrow rain, the second round of attack target he chose was the centaur archer unit in the ancient orc legion.

When the large number of arrows fell from the sky like a rain of light, the Centaurs, who were caught off guard, melted away in an instant like the first snow sprinkled with boiling water.

When they regrouped and shot arrows, the well-prepared Chinese-Armored Archers had already retreated into the fortifications.

They were called fortifications, but in fact they were just reinforced houses. However, these houses with thick steel plates reinforced roofs might not be broken by smaller siege stones, let alone arrows shot by archers.

"How is it possible? How is it possible?"

"How can the arm strength of human archers reach this level?" A Centaur archer leader who was shot in the left arm by an arrow roared angrily.

Of course it is possible. Human archers of level 1 or 2 cannot shoot to this distance unless the longbow manufacturing technology has further innovation and breakthrough. However, human archers of level 3 or 4 can shoot to this distance, and even shoot farther and more fiercely than the gifted centaurs.

"Shaman, prepare, chain lightning."

The centaurs archer troops suffered a heavy blow and were in a state of chaos for a while. They could no longer provide support for the soldiers charging on the front line. Immediately, the ancient orc generals led their troops to take over.

The national teacher Kedar has been in charge for many years. The Hoffman Empire Army is composed of his trusted subordinates. The generals are of one mind, and this alone is already a very terrifying military advantage.

After losing the long-range archery competition, the magic counterattack immediately retaliated. Under the spells and blood sacrifices of the ancient orc shaman group, the sky, which was already covered with dark clouds, suddenly struck down with dazzling lightning.

Those snake-like lightnings swam back and forth on the city walls, causing many human warriors to lose their lives inexplicably instead of being killed by their opponents' swords.

Chain lightning, a magic that can be cast with the help of the external natural environment, can also be cast directly by itself. The former is of course much easier than the latter and much more powerful. Today, the sky is overcast. Although it did not rain, the thunder power in the air was still very active.

Therefore, it was pulled down by the ancient orc shamans, and the killing power was extremely huge. After all, on the battlefield, not many warriors can fight without iron weapons.

"Holy crossbowmen, listen to the order, perform holy healing for yourself and your friendly forces nearby."

With the waving of flags on the command tower, the middle and lower-level officers of each department began to convey the commander's orders.

In the radiation range of the legendary holy relic Silver Holy Grail, the third-level ninth-level Rhodok Holy Heavy Crossbowmen, wearing holy light armor that matches their own attributes, have the comprehensive index of fourth-level high-level soldiers. In addition to the city defense advantage, it is not an exaggeration to call them fifth-level soldiers in this state.

The holy power of light has natural attribute resistance. Therefore, although the chain lightning of the ancient orc shaman just now caused terrible damage to many soldiers on the city wall, the main combat force of the Lonely Mountain Castle, these Rhodok Holy Heavy Crossbowmen, have no problem. At this moment, they received orders from their superiors and performed holy healing.

These heavy-armored big iron cans summoned platinum-colored light balls and then threw them into the bodies of nearby soldiers. The faces of their companions soon became good.

Rhodok Holy Defenders, third-level ninth-level soldiers (top level), obtained the baptism of pure holy power guidance during their own training and strengthening, with firm will, strong physique, and loyal faith.

With the powerful divine power enhancement, they have physical strength and explosive power far beyond the limit of normal human soldiers, and can skillfully use various bows, crossbows, shield hammers and other weapons.

Soldier Skill 1: Holy Healing. Cast on yourself to recover some injuries and physical strength.

Soldier Skill 2: Holy Blessing. With a stronger physique, the attack is accompanied by the divine power feature, even if it is in close combat with infantry of the same level, it will not be inferior, and it can even win the battle.

They are the main combat arms of the Lonely Mountain Castle, and more than half of the army in the entire town is composed of them.

In the battle to defend the city, these heavy crossbowmen at both the offensive and defensive poles can even fight against enemies one level higher than themselves, and they are not at a disadvantage.

In the air, the ancient orcs' two-legged dragon knights hovered and dared not fall, because above the Lonely Mountain Castle, there are not only the griffin knights waiting in formation, but also the continuous shooting heavy crossbows and heavy bed crossbows.

The air knight unit is no different from other types of troops. On the one hand, it is valuable, and on the other hand, it is fragile. Even if an arm of an infantry unit is chopped off, the soldiers can still fight madly and fight to death.

Whether it is a wyvern or a griffin, with half of its wings destroyed, none of them can continue to fly in the sky. This has nothing to do with the willpower to fight.

However, the ancient orcs' wyvern knights not only have venom dragons and lightning dragons, they also breed mutant dragons of different species.

Although this kind of dragon cannot spit venom or lightning attacks, their size has been greatly improved. Although it is still far less than a real dragon, it can be regarded as a behemoth.

Under normal circumstances, such a powerful and terrifying army will not be easily dispatched until the moment of the decisive battle, but this time is different. For the ancient orc army, the war with the human race in the lonely mountain castle is their own decisive battle.

As long as this place is conquered, the millions of grain reserves and the solid base of the lonely mountain castle will become the best stronghold for the ancient orcs to invade the entire human world.

Therefore, even at the beginning of the war, all high-level troops are still thrown down, even the mutant wyvern knights, which are very precious strategic offensive troops in the ancient orc camp.

However, at this moment, the high tower in the core area of ​​the Lonely Mountain Castle town suddenly spread a dark red light from within, and the magic fluctuations were so strong that they were almost tangible.
