Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 288 Breakthrough

The infantrymen of the Imperial Legion are familiar with each other and trust each other very much. This three-three formation allows them to never turn their backs on the enemy and will not be attacked by enemy troops from behind.

As an awl for attacking the fortifications, Ronan led the troops to penetrate deeply into the enemy's defensive position. After breaking through the narrow street, a clear view suddenly opened up in front of him. This should be a commercial area, the main street There were countless alleys, and the enemy troops retreated. In order to avoid ambushes in the surrounding alleys, Ronan stood at the corner of the street and made a few gestures to the soldiers behind him.

The soldiers behind them immediately became cautious, and the formation quickly gathered into a circular iron barrel formation, with two layers in total. The first row bent over and held up the shield, responsible for resisting the attack from the front, and the inner row was slanted upwards. Raise the shield to avoid the archers arranged by the enemy in the surrounding small buildings, while Ronan walked ahead fearlessly relying on his thick armor.

"clang!"

A crossbow bolt shot from a hidden corner hit Ronan's helmet, and was immediately bounced off. This crossbow bolt seemed to be a signal. On both sides of the alley ahead, the surrounding small buildings and roofs suddenly A large number of archers appeared, with their longbows fully drawn, arrows rained down on Ronan.

"defense!"

Ronan roared, then covered his eyes with his arms, lowered his head and squatted down, and the soldiers behind him immediately squatted down. The shields were placed tightly without any dead ends, and the arrows were clanging at Ronan's armor and the soldiers behind him. on the shield.

But the arrows shot at Ronan's body did not break the defense at all, and the soldiers behind him were also tightly protected. Almost no arrows could pass through the shield and enter the formation, let alone hurt people.

A few minutes later, Ronan felt that he no longer had the feeling of being hit by stones during a sandstorm, and knew that it should be over. Sure enough, as soon as the arrow was straightened, there was a roar from the front, and groups of soldiers rushed forward. come over.

"Counterattack!"

Ronan stood up, tore off the tattered cloak that had been shot at by arrows on his back, then shouted loudly, raised his sword and launched a counter charge.

"call!"

The infantrymen of the legion immediately stood up, swept the shield with their short swords, and cut off all the arrows, leaving only the arrow part embedded in the shield, they also shouted to change their formation and rushed up following Ronan.

The attack in several other directions is similar. Trezeguet's troops have a relatively small shield ratio, so although they withdrew from the arrow rain at the first time, they still suffered some casualties. Then Trezeguet chose Some warriors with shields and good armor like the Swadian sergeant launched a charge to cover the archers and kill the enemy's archers, so that Ronan could supplement his shortcomings from Jackson before attacking the city. Borrowed a group of archers, and borrowed some shield infantry from Magna to him.

Magna's side is much simpler. Oxide is not afraid of those arrows at all. After shielding his arms in front of his face to prevent the arrows from hurting his eyes, he directly transformed and rushed out. Those houses about two meters high He can jump up in one go, even the small building can't stop him, he can climb the city wall, let alone the small building that is not high.

Under the pursuit of Oxide and his people, the archers fled before they could shoot a few arrows. To make matters worse, the inner city of Sitges also suddenly opened its gates. Seth rushed out with the troops and fought with the enemy troops outside the city, making Murak even more desperate.

"My lord, we must find a way to break through the siege! If this continues, we will not be able to hold on until the reinforcements arrive!"

A warrior of the wolf tribe beside Murak said that he is Murak's adjutant and his nephew. Murak glanced at his nephew, and then said:

"Call the soldiers, let's break out from the north gate!"

After finishing speaking, Murak put on his helmet and rode on the horse brought by his attendants. Near him, his guards immediately turned on their horses and took out their longbows.

The troops that met Ronan were killed again and returned in defeat. Under the cover of bows and arrows, they withdrew to the next block again, but that was also the last block. Wherever they passed, they could touch the inner city wall.

Ronan led the soldiers to continue chasing after the rain of arrows, but the soldiers did not stop them again. Just when Ronan thought they collapsed and gave up, Ye Sefa landed beside him from the sky.

"Your Majesty! They are about to break out of the siege. They left a part of the army to resist the troops of General Meriuses who went out of the city to fight, and then gathered the rest of the troops to break out from the north side!"

"The north side is Tiberius' side. He really knows how to guess. He found the weakest place to break through. You and Camilla quickly go to support them and don't let them run away. The rest, and I go through here. Help Tiberius!"

Ronan said, and then he also told Trezeguet and Magna in the other direction in the system, telling them to also divert to Tiberius through the alley for support. But where Tiberius couldn't contact through the system, Ronan only hoped that Jesse could fly fast enough.

But when Ronan arrived, Murak rushed out with some soldiers. The cavalry and orc warriors led the way. Most of them are cavalry and orcs with good endurance.

Ronan glanced at the messy scene and the scattered corpses, and said to Magna who had just rushed over:

"Let the cavalry pursue!"

Magna immediately called the Noldor knight and asked him to lead the fast-moving Kugit cavalry to chase out. Ronan also sent Eranikus to go with him.

"Magna, take someone to clean up the city, bury the corpses of friendly soldiers outside the city, and burn the rest of the corpses after searching for useful supplies, so as not to cause any plague!

The rest of the people and I go to the inner city! "

Near the inner city, there are still some enemy troops who were left behind struggling to resist. The battle situation has been scattered, and they are all scattered in the alleys. The enemy troops hope to get rid of the pursuit, and then hide or escape from the city. But Ronan obviously didn't want them to get what they wanted, so he sent all the remaining troops out to search alleys one by one, and Ronan didn't want to let any one go.

"My lord, the statistics are over. Our army has killed 734 people and injured 891 people. The dead soldiers have been buried. Most of the wounded soldiers were slightly injured by scratches, which will not affect the follow-up operations. We have collected a total of 3463 enemy corpses and captured 1456 people. , There should be less than a thousand soldiers remaining in the city to resist, the enemy general Murak escaped, and there were hundreds of cavalry and some orc warriors who fled together."
