As an established power, the Kingdom of Thorne of course also has a team of gryphon knights. Although the number is not too large, only less than twenty people, it is already a strong force on the mainland. Alonso
The Third has always taken this team of gryphon knights with him as a strong force of protection, and naturally followed him to Kent Town this time.
Seeing that the enemy sent gryphon knights to attack the siege scale truck, Alonso III immediately sent half of the gryphon knights to intercept it. Although he had a sinister character, he was not a mediocre king. The siege scale truck was used to break down the castle.
The key was not to let anything go wrong, so we sent out strong protective forces without hesitation.
Elvira drove her mount up quickly, avoiding the arrows shot towards her. While controlling the gryphon to turn quickly, she took the time to take a look around. All her companions were there, and she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
At that time, the gryphon knights who were bombing the scale cart were making final adjustments to their flight path. Counting half-elves, there were only five of them. And they had to face twice as many enemies. It was obvious how dangerous the situation was.
However, Avila did not panic at all. She quickly made a "mutual cover" gesture, and then took the lead in controlling the griffon to dive towards the nearest enemy.
The half-elf is light in stature, and all the saddles and weapons are carefully crafted by dwarves to reduce the weight as much as possible while maintaining strength. In addition, Roger deliberately selected a particularly majestic griffon as a mount, so the maneuverability in the air is very important.
Much better than the Griffin Knights of Thorne Kingdom.
After only half a circle, Elvira was already directly behind the target and quickly aimed the crossbow at the target. The half-elf seized the opportunity and quickly pulled the firing trigger, and the crossbow immediately shot towards the target.
Vest. Griffon knights don't wear heavy armor. This arrow easily penetrated the target's body. The guy screamed and then collapsed softly on the saddle motionless.
Unlike the crossbows used by the griffin knights of the Kingdom of Thorne, the light crossbows used by Avella and the others are semi-fixed on the saddle and can shoot in any direction. This kind of shooting allows excellent shooting accuracy and flexibility, which helps
Elvira completed Sora's first kill.
Not long after the half-elf destroyed an enemy, another elf also shot an enemy. The guy fell forward without saying a word, and then became motionless.
However, another griffon knight from Thorn Kingdom also took this opportunity to stare at this elf. He was grinning and wanted to fire a crossbow, but suddenly the elf in front did an incredible somersault and disappeared from sight in an instant.
Before the griffin knight could recover from his shock, he felt a sharp pain in his back. He had been shot by the elf who was protecting his companions.
The gryphon knights under Alonso III never imagined that they would face such a formidable group of enemies. Although their number was twice that of the enemy, they did not take any advantage in the air battle. Instead, they suffered losses in a short period of time.
He killed three people, but they didn't even have a chance to fight back.
At this time, the elves who had descended for bombing also returned to high altitude. The bombing went very smoothly, destroying all three remaining siege trucks. Although the city wall still suffered some damage, the elves could still complete their mission.
.
The bombing elves quickly joined the battle, and now the gryphon knights of the Kingdom of Thorne no longer even had the numerical advantage. Their usual training focused on swooping from the air to attack with spears, and they had never conducted any specialized aerial combat.
Training. Facing the elves who just ride griffins in the air to practice various aerial combat maneuvers, they don't even have the ability to fight back.
In just a moment, the griffin knights sent by Alonso III were wiped out. The griffin knights have always been the pride of the army, and ordinary soldiers think of them as heroes. But at this moment, in full view of the public, ten griffin knights
Being killed one by one by the enemy without losing anyone on the other side not only made Alonso III furious, but also seriously affected the morale of ordinary soldiers on the ground.
"What a difficult enemy." Sutil could not help but sigh after seeing all this. However, as the commander of King Thorn's team, he also had to do something to restore morale. And the only thing he could do at the moment was
It is to launch an attack and let the soldiers regain their courage in fighting the enemy.
Although all eight siege scale trucks were destroyed, a hole was finally opened in the city wall. Although the wall did not completely collapse, the gap was enough for the soldiers to climb. So Sutil immediately asked the adjutant to issue an order to mobilize five soldiers.
Thousands of soldiers from the Sutil Corps launched a fierce attack on the gap.
Just when Sutil's army began to attack, Roger was also praising the gryphon knights just now.
"Well done." Roger always praised his sincere subordinates. He gave a thumbs up to the elves and said that your performance just now was great. You must first control the air and then launch an attack on the ground. The essence of the air force is
You have created a new fighting method for the Griffin Knights. From now on, the air force will play an increasingly important role in wars."
Roger's praise also made the elves very happy. Both humans and elves have the need to win recognition and appreciation from others. The elves were also very excited when they heard that Roger said that he would usher in a new era of gryphon knights, especially
This is even more true for Elvira. After all, half-elves have been ostracized in the past, both by humans and elves. This time, receiving such high praise from Roger also made her understand that being respected by others does not depend on race, but on race.
What kind of achievements can you make?
Roger praised the elves again and asked them to have a good rest. He quickly returned to the city wall. At this time, the enemy's siege army had arrived in front of the castle and was launching a fierce attack on the gap in the wall.
Although the damaged city wall has reduced the castle's defense capabilities, it is far from affecting the safety of the castle. Roger quickly mobilized soldiers to guard the gaps in the city wall, and at the same time asked crossbowmen and magicians to provide support, which was supposed to be
The damaged wall at the enemy's breach turned into a deadly trap.
Sutil commanded the soldiers to continuously attack the gaps in the city wall, and paid a huge price for it. However, no soldier could rush into the castle before dark, leaving only a large number of corpses in the gaps.
Seeing that it was getting late, Suti had to stop the attack. The only thing that comforted him was that the gap in the city wall was still there. As long as he continued to attack, he could always break through the increasingly tired enemy's defenses. However, Suti
I had far underestimated Roger's strength, so what happened next was completely beyond his expectation.
