Different from the white-feathered arrows used by Roy, the arrows fired by Fei Lie's cavalry were completely black. Not only were the tail feathers black, but even the metal arrowheads were dipped in black paint.
The first row of rockets illuminates the city wall to determine the coordinates. The real killer is this wave of night arrows that completely blend into the night!
"hidden!"
"Get out of the way!"
Roy suddenly lowered his head and curled up under the battlement.
He saw that even though the sergeants and knights shouted loudly, some soldiers who were ready to fire arrows when they saw Philippe Cavalry rushing over were still exposed to the rain of arrows that was already close at hand as soon as they appeared.
Whoosh whoosh!
Duh duh duh!
With the sound of rain falling on a lotus pond, the overwhelming black arrows came silently from the void where the gate was opened. Only when they got closer did they make a sharp and piercing whistling sound. Rows of them were nailed to the city walls and shields.
and the human body.
Roy's heart suddenly tightened.
Screams spread everywhere. Several soldiers and civilians who had no time to escape stared with fearful eyes, and their bodies were shaking in the rain of arrows. The powerful arrows easily penetrated or torn their bodies. A few arrows just penetrated the chest and lower abdomen,
Several other arrows were inserted between the eyebrows and throats. Blood and minced meat shot out in the direction of the arrows.
The entire world was completely enveloped by these locust swarm-like arrows at this moment.
Countless metal arrows hit the masonry, and sparks flew everywhere. The wall tiles were instantly covered with streaks of white marks. Broken small stones bounced around in a puff of exploding stone dust. Wooden wood, shields and lying bodies were thrown into the air.
The black arrows stuck on the corpse looked like black hedgehogs, which was creepy.
"Damn it!"
Hugo, who was huddled under the battlement with Roy, punched the wall hard and cursed angrily.
The Feili people started too quickly, and only some experienced warriors could understand that when the enemy cavalry charged, all those in front were powerful knights.
The power inspired by the fighting spirit allowed the crossbows in the hands of the knights to have a farther range than ordinary people. When they opened their bows and fired arrows to seize the opportunity before their horses entered the range of the defenders' bows and arrows, the ordinary soldiers did not fight back at all.
opportunity!
The deaths of these soldiers and civilians were completely unnecessary sacrifices!
The arrow rain came one after another.
Looking at the pale faces of Minzhuang hiding behind the bunker, Hugo knew that if the enemy was allowed to continue shooting like this, the morale of the defenders would fall to freezing point before the enemy's arrows ran out.
We must fight back!
Hugo knelt half on the ground, suddenly aroused his fighting spirit, and raised his war bow.
As a third-level brave knight who can possess fighting spirit, Hugo can completely rely on his magic armor and fighting spirit to resist the attacks of ordinary bows and arrows. Therefore, as long as he is not directly hit by a knight who is much stronger than him, he can survive on the city wall.
His survivability is much higher than that of ordinary soldiers. At this time, only he can stand up!
They seemed to have the same idea. Just as Hugo was holding the battle bow, Susan, Punk, Baron Brian and several other knights beside him also inspired their own fighting spirit and took the battle bow in their hands.
"Five, four, three..."
Hugo counted down loudly while counting the gaps between Knight Felipe's arrows.
"...Two, one! Cum!"
Roy looked up and saw that as Hugo shouted loudly, the knights stood up at the same time, bows and arrows drawn.
Under the violent vibration, the bow string made a sound like a thunderbolt, and eight feather arrows broke through the air like lightning, shooting towards the Fei Lie cavalry below the city.
At the critical moment of life and death, all the knights concentrated all their strength on these arrows.
Especially as the brave knights Hugo, Susan and Punk's arrows were imbued with fighting spirit, they were wrapped in the light of the battle ring and looked like three olive-shaped light bullets.
At this moment, Fei Lie's cavalry formation had formed two continuously surrounding circles under the city wall.
A cavalry formation of six people in a row galloped toward the castle from a distance. During the galloping process as they approached the city wall, Fei Lie's cavalry took advantage of the high speed of their horses to shoot arrows twice.
Then, the cavalry formation was divided into two. Three people went left and three people went right, drawing two arcs in opposite directions under the city wall. While spreading towards the city wall, they rode back to the original starting point and joined again.
Join the team charging towards the castle.
The charging fire of the Feili people was fast and the arrows were powerful. Not to mention that the defenders on the city wall couldn't hold their heads up, even the battlements of the city wall were shot into pieces by the powerful arrows.
This counterattack by Hugo and others was not aimed at killing many enemies. They just hoped to at least contain the opponent's continuous offensive. Otherwise, the morale of the civilian soldiers would collapse if they were kept suppressed here and couldn't raise their heads!
However, the Fiery Cavalry seemed to have been prepared for this.
Roy, who was hiding under the battlements and looking down through the arrow holes, found that not far below, ten Fei Lie knights who had been possessed by fighting spirit and were wrapped in light of different attributes and colors were stationed there.
at every turn.
The stream of cavalry behind them rushed to the line they formed, and then turned towards the wings to turn their horses.
From standing up to firing the bow and arrow, it only took a short moment. It was so short that people had no time to think about what these ten knights were doing standing there as if nothing had happened.
But as the bowstring vibrated, the answer was quickly revealed.
Seeing the sharp arrows coming, the ten Fei Lie knights raised a sneer on their lips. The light on their bodies suddenly shone.
Five of them either raised their shields or brandished their swords. They jumped up from their horses like thrown stone pellets, and faced the incoming arrows without retreating.
Just a few ping-ping-pong-pong sounds were heard, and all the eight launched arrows had been shot away. Even the fighting spirit arrows of the three brave knights such as Hugo only made the person who was blocking the body slow down in the air.
slow!
With no time to be discouraged and frustrated, the knights on the city wall gritted their teeth and drew their bows. Braving the rain of arrows, they quickly shot out a second wave of arrows.
Almost at the same time, the other five Felie Knights under the city wall also raised their bows. As their hands moved as fast as phantoms, they fired arrows at the city wall one after another.
These people are obviously the sharpshooters among the Fei Lie Knights. Not only have their fighting spirit reached the stage of transformation, but their shooting skills are also superb.
Just a few crisp sounds were heard, and sparks were flying in the air. The arrows shot from the city wall were actually hit by their arrows.
But before everyone on the city wall could recover, Knight Felie, who was moving smoothly, had already aimed at the city wall, firing arrows like a volley of arrows.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
With a dense sound of piercing the air and a muffled groan, a knight under Baron Brian was shot through the heart by a vindictive arrow, and his whole body was sent flying up, falling to the other side of the city wall.
Motionless.
Below the city, a knight Fei Lie laughed mockingly.
They huddled back under the battlement again and watched as the sacrificed knight's body was quickly covered with countless falling black arrows. Everyone's vests were completely soaked with cold sweat!
At this moment, there were only about thirty knights in Borabel. Not only were they only one-quarter or one-fifth of the opponent's knights, most of them were ordinary armed knights.
In addition, George and other eight holy knights have always refused to fight on the city wall because their duty is to protect the princess. Therefore, there are only more than 20 knights who can defend on the city wall at this moment.
With so few knights, but having to defend four city walls, the pressure can be imagined.
If before this, the knights thought they could rely on the city wall to narrow the strength gap between the two sides, then this wave of nearly complete defeat made everyone feel chilled.
The atmosphere became extremely heavy amidst the endless rain of arrows. As some wall bricks and wooden shields wrapped with iron sheets were shot apart, the casualties were increasing.
The screams of injured civilians and soldiers were everywhere. Many civilians who had been driven to mental breakdown by the pressure of death began to run around, but before they could even take two steps, they were shot to the ground in an instant.
.
It seems that the city wall has been completely suppressed, and the enemy has begun to launch rockets deep into the castle.
From the flight trajectories of the rockets, everyone knows that at this moment, the Feili people have approached the rotation line of the riding formation to the foot of the castle. Only at this distance can the rockets pose the greatest threat to the main building in the center of the castle.
Everyone's hearts were sinking as they watched the overwhelming flaming red meteors pass overhead and fall towards the castle, igniting stables, blacksmith sheds, wooden carts, mills and everything with wood.
We can't go on like this! Roy clenched his fists quietly and carefully observed the knight downstairs.
It would be difficult to kill all ten brave knights, even two or three. But if you... you might be able to create an opportunity.
"Mrs. Ellen." Hugo turned around and called, with a somewhat hesitant expression on his face.
If Mrs. Ellen takes action, the offensive of the Fei Lie cavalry under the city wall will be interrupted. They will leave at least more than twenty corpses and retreat beyond the shooting range of bows and arrows.
But the magic power of magicians is not infinite. Moreover, if you expose your biggest trump card when you know that the opponent also has a magician, the subsequent battle will be really difficult!
Hugo hesitated. Everyone stared at him with bated breath, waiting for his decision.
Just when Hugo gritted his teeth and was about to speak, suddenly, his hand was pulled by Roy.
Hugo turned his head in surprise and saw Roy, who was huddled under the pheasant with his fat dog in his arms, looking at him with sincerity: "Master Hugo, give me a bow, we can suppress them."
"No," Hugo shook his head quickly and whispered: "Man, it's not that I don't trust you. The ones below are all knights above the bravery level. You can't break their armor and fighting spirit!"
"I can't break it, but you can."
Roy silently cast the three [Battle Ring Acceleration] at Hugo, Susan and Punk respectively, his eyes flashing: "Did you see the guy with the vulture diagonal stripe on the armor in the middle?
