Chapter 151 I want to hit ten
The army can be bought with money, but the army that can be bought with money must not be a very reliable army. Both Kilit and Lu Xi knew very well.
However, as long as these "army" can come to the city wall and shout for the defense of Heiman City, Kilit will be very pleased. After all, the area of war cannot be determined by one or two powerful people. The walls of Heiman City are so long that even if Kilit and others break through the boundaries and take the legend, they will not be able to defend it. It is better to have unreliable adventurers and mercenaries as guest cannon fodder than not.
After more than 10,000 gold coins were scattered, as Kilit and Mu expected, a large number of adventurers and mercenaries, with their leaders as grassroots commanders, turned into combat units of varying numbers and began to gather on the walls of Heiman City, and soon exceeded 10,000 people. Of course, such "army" composed of small teams with completely different numbers and combat power is a nightmare for any commander. Fortunately, the two did not have the luxury of issuing orders and orders to enforce prohibitions, which would make these "wild dogs" who seek profit and avoid harm fight to protect Heiman.
After the adventurers and mercenaries gradually took their place, Lu Xi and the others followed the command level of the "army" to the city wall.
"His Excellency Berencaster, you and your subordinates are from the army, and their cooperation and strength are amazing. So, I hope you can serve as a mobile force and go wherever there is a sign of breakthrough in the defense line," Mu said to Lu Xi.
Lu Xi glanced at Captain Grima, who nodded silently.
"This is indeed a very appropriate arrangement. It is natural to maintain a necessary mobile team when teammates are not trusting." Captain Grima praised.
The captain was a sensible person. He knew that he and Lu Xi were both outsiders, and it was a foolish act to compete for command with Kilit and others. It would be better to obey the other party's orders and sell it, not to mention that the other party's dispatch was very reasonable. In addition, he also knew that following the fugitives to leave the city at this time was even more foolish act. Obert, who was preparing to defect, had the "important person" Obert, who was ready to defect, once he left the city, the undead might send a large number of undead knights or even bone dragons to pursue it. In that case, in the field, one side who lacked high-speed maneuverability would inevitably end up completely destroyed.
Mu looked at Lu Xi and Grima who were very cooperative with his work, and said, "In addition to my central command, the young lady, Mr. Kilit, and Mr. Hughes, Mr. Dongte, and Mr. Sea Monster can also be regarded as mobile power."
"It seems that Mr. Kilit and Miss Asuna trust Mr. Mu very much, and they actually handed over the command to you completely." Lu Xi said with a smile.
"So I have to do my best to live up to their trust." Mu's expression still couldn't see any changes, and he nodded to Lu Xi in a silence.
"However, seeing that you were so familiarly dispatching troops to arrange tasks just now, Kilit and the others did make a very appropriate choice." Lu Xi looked deeply at the dark-hearted scholar's face: "You must have had a lot of experience in this area before, right?"
Unfortunately, Lu Xi did not see slackness or wavering in the other party's pupils. Mu just sighed without objection and said slowly: "Maybe it is. But this has nothing to do with what happened today, isn't it?"
"Of course not, I'm just a little curious." Lu Xi spread his hands.
A black-bellied beast, it depends on when you pretend to be.
As the actual commander, Mu actually had a lot to do. After explaining Lu Xi’s affairs, he walked towards the city wall on the right with quick movements. There, several mercenaries, under the guidance of the instructions, actually set up a crossbow.
"I can be sure that Mr. Mu must have been born as a soldier, and he has definitely had the experience of commanding the large army." Captain Grima said to Lu Xi.
"Oh, how can I tell?" Lu Xi knew that the other party was a master of level 10 in Silver, but he didn't know that the other party would be a soldier. Why didn't this temperament fit very well?
"It is absolutely necessary to be able to rectify adventurers and mercenaries with ulterior motives into that in such a short period of time. It is very unlikely that they have such an orderly dispatching ability. Magic and martial arts are also geniuses, but they are absolutely impossible to command."
"I've heard of someone who can be named a marshal at the age of 20."
Grima smiled and said, "It does exist for people who can become famous generals at a young age, but these people often enter the battlefield to accumulate practical experience in their youth, and have talent and hard work, so they grow very fast. However, people who are born to fight war certainly do not exist."
If you think about it carefully, whether it is the non-existent stingy second-high-haired overlord or the existing stingy second-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-high-level general, they all entered the battlefield and struggled for life and death as they were in their teens, so that they could be invincible at the age of twenty.
Judging from this, the history of this black-bellied beast should be very magnificent, right?
At this time, a mercenary standing on the tower and sermoned, letting out a loud roar: "The undead are coming!"
From the sentinel, you can see the unprofessionality of the mobs in the city. This naughty child seemed to be more suitable to be a tenor than to be a mercenary. The extremely panic sentiment quickly spread to the surroundings with his high voice, causing the city defenders who were resting on the ground to become nervous.
Lu Xi and Grima looked at each other, and sighed helplessly. What can we do about a group of unprofessional pig teams? Kilit and Asuna pushed command to Mu, as if to allow professionals to display their professional abilities, but there is no suspicion of throwing away the burden.
Is it really okay to fight side by side with these guys? While struggling with this problem, Lu Xi climbed up the city wall helplessly. After all, it is said that the enemy is coming...
However, even if this enemy comes, what's the problem?
A very strange scene that caught Lu Xi's eyes.
The Dead Knights wearing black armor, carrying rune swords or beheaded swords, rode a skeleton war horse and stopped at a distance of twice the range from the crossbow. The undead Knights were densely packed with densely packed with unscrupulous knights. These Dead Knights only had forty or fifty horses, standing between the Black Man City and the army, and their existence was unscrupulous.
It is too far away, and Lu Xi cannot use exploration techniques to observe the other party, but he also knows that the Dead Knights can only be produced among the strong, and they all retain their memories and combat experience during their lifetime. When they receive the magic of the Dead Lords, their stiff and cold bodies are filled with tremendous death magic. With a complete set of martial arts combined with these magical powers, their combat power will often be even better than before their lifetime.
The average strength should be at least higher than the silver level.
But so what? The powerful people of forty or fifty cavalry may be the last straw that crushes the camel on the battlefield, but if there were no thousands of cannon fodder as heavy objects, the straw was just straw after all, even a group of powerful straws that looked extremely murderous and fierce.
Hey, you group of undead are really ready to be 1v5, no, you can't do it? You're too confused? Even if it's a bit of such a heavy taste, I haven't heard of putting the protagonist's halo on a group of self-righteous, rich and handsome men, but in fact, they are just a group of fake high-end, rich and handsome men who have iron cans on bones.
Lu Xi looked at the dead knights with a gloomy expression and asked Grima: "How many thunderstorm javelins are there on you?"
"On average, each person still has about two more people." The captain said: "But why did you ask that?"
"I just realized a problem. From beginning to end, the attacks are all low-level troops of the undead legion. If things like the Undead Knight or even the Bone Dragon are activated, we really don't have many means to cause effective damage to them."
"This is indeed a problem." Grima nodded, but then said: "However, no matter which force, the powerful people are not so easy to cultivate. If you commit rashly in the absence of the battle situation and end up being drowned by a group of small people in a daze, it would be a joke."
"I understand this, so I don't understand what those guys are trying to do when swaying there." Lu Xi pointed to the Dead Knight in the distance, "However, we cannot base the assumption on the premise that the enemy is a fool. Since we can't figure it out, it means that they must be planning some plans that we can't guess."
"Well, what you are saying is indeed a meticulous and polite word." Captain Grima lowered his face and suddenly seemed a little serious.
"By the way, Captain, besides bringing thunderstorm javelins, are there any super big things like flame crossbows or magic crystal cannons?"
The captain immediately smiled bitterly: "These things are magic weapons equipped by the Federal Fleet and the Imperial Guards. How can we carry them on our bodies? We can't have a dimensional bag for each person, right?"
"Who knows? Maybe you'll break it into pieces and then you can quickly assemble it now."
"Even if we brought parts, only magicians who were proficient in alchemy knew how to assemble and operate that kind of magic weapon, right?"
"Oh, we can only make do with the thunderstorm javelin." Lu Xi sighed helplessly, "Anyway, we must be mentally prepared, well, and have the worst plan."
"The worst plan?"
"For example, the city gate is lost or something..." Lu Xi shrugged at Captain Grima and said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Just as he finished speaking, the enemy's attack finally began.
It was not like before that tens of thousands of undead spirits rushed over in a black manner, but the forty or fifty undead knights instigated the skeleton war horse under their crotch, took off the rotten horse hooves and began to strode forward.
The knights quickly developed from advancing to running, and then reached the final charge stage. For the Dead Knights, whether they were in front of them were a group of old, weak, women and children or tens of thousands of enemies on a city wall, once they received the order, they would attack without hesitation. For the dead undead, there might be no fear of death in their hearts. The undead magic was running rapidly in their stiff bodies, and the green power flames wrapped the knights and war horses in it, as if turning the entire cavalry into a roaring and boiling ghost fire.
They quickly rushed into the range of the arrows, and the cold feeling brought by the ghost fire came to their faces hundreds of meters, making Lu Xi's face so cold that it hurts.
They seem to be really ready to play ten! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to collect and recommend it (Piao Tian Wen, Www, Piao Tian Quan Pin Dian Net). Your support is my greatest motivation.)
