Chapter 581 Reckless
After Tony and Oswald attacked to seal several gaps, the Habsburg troops retreated slightly on most of the front and broke away from the Swiss Guards.
The injured officers and soldiers were pulled to the rear and replaced with fresh troops to continue the attack.
Tony's men were all resting behind the battle line, but he himself did not sit down and rest for a while behind the battle line like his men.
As long as he stood here, he could feel the strength in his body constantly recovering. Sitting down was just an instinctive need.
The defenders surrounding the Sistine Chapel actually do not tire.
This of course greatly offset the disadvantage of their inability to rotate. These skilled soldiers relied on their terrain advantages to inflict considerable casualties on the Habsburg Army, which was unable to develop a wide enough front.
However, Tony did not become confident because of this. With his rich experience, he was very sure that the enemy would not give him time to recover calmly like this several times. Although there was a very high density of Swiss Guard members gathered around the chapel, there were also constant blessings.
Divine magic, but compared to the enemy, this skill
This section is still greatly lacking. As long as the enemy rotates attacks and lets the arrow figures take turns to charge, the enemy can still quickly generate suggestions for the enemy. Until now, the battle has progressed, and two layers of skin have been peeled off from the enemy's defense line. The Habsburg side only needs to continue
It is only a matter of time to maintain high pressure and break through one's own defense line.
He had just seen Pastor Barbarossa of the United Kingdom perform various restoration spells on Florentino, and then pour various potions on him and Frunzberg, as well as several Spanish court mages.
Execute various benefits regardless of cost.
Although the most important cache in Rome is still under their control, the other trophies are not just cannons. The secondary spellcasting material warehouses also have materials worth millions. These materials are being gathered here for the attack on the West.
Stine Chapel.
Not to mention that even without these disadvantages, the power of the duo of Florentino and Frunzberg is enough to scare people.
The next time they come in, it will be an extremely important test.
Although the Chosen Pope was busy casting spells when he left the station, he still encouraged his most important subordinate with a few words. Let him fight resolutely, and a miracle will happen.
Compared to his subordinates who had no distractions, Tony was not actually completely aroused by Sirik's power and was unable to think. For a powerful warrior like him, a clear mind was more important than dedication.
Tony knew that even his master understood that there was little hope for a head-on confrontation with the Habsburgs this time. He was currently just trying to inflict heavy casualties on the Habsburgs. It was not worth it to Ferdinand and Ladislaus.
Paying such huge casualties to completely tear off the last fig leaf of the true electorate and the Roman Church.
Since the Habsburg family has not yet massacred Cyric fanatics in the country, and Spain still does not even allow people other than Cyric believers to hold public office, then the dignity of religious leaders preserved in this contest is valuable.
However, it is not easy to use these more than a thousand subordinates to block the tens of thousands of Habsburg elites in the city.
After the preparations were completed, the two Habsburg "protectors" calmly bowed in the direction of Ferdinand and Ladislaus, and then inserted the Swiss halberd first.
This was followed by a tsunami-like cry of "Long live the Warlock Royal Family!". More than a thousand United Kingdom and Spanish soldiers once again launched an all-out attack on the entire staircase.
Although the Swiss Guards' physical strength has been almost restored with the support of purple divine power, these attacking troops are all fresh forces of the Habsburg side.
These soldiers have a lot of experience in war. Even illiterate roughnecks know that at this stage of the battle, there is generally no suspense.
Inspired by the charge led by the two top warriors, the Habsburg soldiers waved their weapons at the enemy in front of them with determination to win.
After Frunzberg killed a Swiss soldier, his "Sword of Babenberg" was forced back by Tony's axe.
This time, the direction of their attack was very clear, and the Swiss soldiers had already moved a certain distance to give Tony's axe room to use.
After forcing Frunzberg back first, Tony raised his ax high above his head. Regardless of the open door in the middle, he slashed hard at Florentino.
The late-blooming Italian No. 1 Samurai charged at the two powerful enemies with an extremely violent attitude. His "Luo Ying" opened and closed in a posture of sacrificing his life to attack.
Conventional fighting methods are meaningless in this situation. The opponent's strong men are superior to our own in both quantity and quality. Those divine blessings that can allow ordinary soldiers to maintain their energy are not so useful in a competition between top strong men.
.
If it were an ordinary battle, Tony knew that he and Oswald could barely maintain the front at most, and this kind of war of attrition would be no problem for the Habsburg side who could control the rhythm and have a large number of people.
.
So he must have used unusual tactics to solve the problem.
Although the ax swept across both of them at the same time, Florentino was actually the focus of the attack. Seventy percent of the ax's pressure was on him.
Tony's choice of target makes sense. Frunzberg's strength is actually hard to say that he is stronger than Florentino. However, although the injuries suffered by the old boss in the previous round of battle have been cured, top samurai fighting
The energy lost is not so easy to recover.
He wanted to gain the upper hand through a fierce attack. Compared with the enemy's long sword, his weapon was more likely to cause fatal injuries, so it was more intimidating.
Not to mention that there is now almost substantial purple flames swimming on his axe. Just looking at it makes people have the urge to run away.
However, these advantages are meaningless to Florentino. In a one-on-one situation, whatever weapons the enemy uses are the same to him, let alone "deterrence", which is even less meaningful to him.
.
As for "escape"...hahaha.
Florentino faced the oncoming ax and advanced instead of retreating, allowing it to hit his shoulder armor and then pull off his entire arm without any hindrance.
Tony looked in disbelief at the world-famous Spanish Palace Chief Steward in front of him. Purple flames were already burning on his left arm. The injury caused by "Luo Ying" was not easy to recover from, even if he received the best care immediately.
It was also difficult to reattach Florentino's arm. The entire arm was damaged and it was only injured. Along the shoulder blade, the boss's collarbone and one of his ribs were also cut open by the axe.
Not to mention the purple fire that penetrated his body along the wounds. Didn't he realize that these flames would destroy his bones and muscles and make him hopeless for the rest of his life?!
In any case, Tony will not understand, because the sword of the Archdeacon Florentino has been inserted into his chest, and his heart has been crushed. Although the purple flame is flowing violently in his body, it cannot stop him.
The body collapsed.
The general manager who was rescued by Frunzberg felt uncontrollable anger in his heart. He hated himself to the extreme for not being able to break through the defense line and instead having to test his competitors to save his life.
But Tony chose the wrong strategy at this time, and Florentino wanted to win the honor regardless of leaving serious injuries that were difficult to heal.
Oswald, who had been ambushing in the shadows for a long time, was helpless against this situation. It had no time to protect Tony. Although it severely injured Florentino with a follow-up blow, it could not save the situation at hand.
After only one round of fighting, Frunzberg dragged Florentino back to his own front again, and the old manager was injured much more seriously than the last time.
But this time Florentino did not return without success.
"Grand Steward!"
"Consultant Florentino!"
The Spanish soldiers cheered the name of their hero in the highest possible tone.
"Long live the Warlock Royal Family!" The old general manager had a long trail of blood on his body, but he still responded to the soldiers cheering for him with a roar that spread across the battlefield.
Seeing that the opponent's mainstay "Guardian" warrior was killed by one of his own strong men, the morale of the Habsburg army was greatly boosted. Even with Sirik's blessing, the Swiss were still uncontrollably fearful and shaken.
In less than a minute after the Habsburg Army launched another offensive, the Swiss Guard's front line was shaken. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest support.
