The Ominous Lord of the Skaven

Chapter 239 Our department is unimpeded!
The zombies resisted the Ratmen's firepower and reached 50 meters from the front line. Here, the accuracy of both sides has been significantly improved.

Under the command of the officers and rats, the recruited ratmen loaded and fired shotguns, and the shotguns of the zombies were also shot head-on.

The three companies with Ratman on the front line, after a round of volleys, a total of 80 Ratmen fell to the volley of zombies, while the opponent only lost less than 30 corpses.

This situation was not alleviated until the arrival of artillery support. Six 45mm guns blasted away a large number of zombies with shotguns. Seeing the situation was not good, Colt ordered the left wing to launch a bayonet charge, intending to defeat Ickert's right wing in close combat.

1500 zombies charged aggressively at the Ratman line and their artillery. If even the artillery was misfired, the right wing of the entire army would be in jeopardy.

Ickert had to admit that the fortress defender in front of him was indeed a tricky existence.

But it was limited to being tricky. The 500 Jackal slaves placed behind the line of infantry were driven up, and the line of infantry began to retreat. Ickert again allocated 500 slaves from the reserve team to support the right wing.

When the zombies rushed to the front of the Ratman formation, they were first melted by the 6-dimensional flamethrower for a whole row!
The blazing dimensional flame dragon generally cut into the formation of the zombies, and the densely charging zombie line suffered heavy losses, and the yellow-green evil flames burned in the cave.

After the first round of spraying, as many as 150 zombies were burnt to death!
Not to mention that the ratman weapon team will finish loading in a while!
The remaining human officers hurriedly ordered the zombies to approach at all costs, and they fought together with the jackal slave soldiers.

When the battle progressed to this point, Colt knew that the whole battle was over.

The rockets had already begun to wash away Colt's central army, and the opposing commander expressed quite obvious intentions.

He actually wants to be the first to liberate his melee troops!
Was it to be expected that he would have cavalry?Or is it just a necessary precaution?If this is the case, then the fortress defenders really have nothing to fight!
His own artillery is about to be lost. At this time, the only way to survive is to withdraw the troops back to the fortress. No matter what he wants to do, this is the last chance.

Colt had no choice but to order, and Leonardo led 300 extraordinary cavalry to attack.

These knights also knew that the battle plan was messed up, but the opponent's current professional melee troops were only 500, and even if the guards were added, it was only [-]. These things could not stop the extraordinary cavalry from resolutely attacking.

Leonardo estimated that it would be possible for more than 100 mid-level transcendents to kill the opponent's commander directly by paying the price of all the low-level transcendental being killed in battle.

The gates of the fortress were thrown open, and three hundred Wall Knights on their mighty steeds began a rapid charge towards Ictor's left flank.

There were only 480 line infantry and 500 jackals, and these troops were even firmly held back by zombies!

Leonardo couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.

"The infantry has done their job! Our troops are unimpeded!"

After finishing speaking, he began to urge the horse to trot. A one-kilometer dash was easy for the extraordinary cavalry.

The cavalrymen in enchanted armor were so dazzling that it was impossible for Iktor to ignore their presence.

"Clan chief! Those cavalry are coming from the left!"

"I know, the equipment on their bodies is simply brighter than the streetlights in the imperial capital!"

Ickert felt that he was about to be blinded by the luxurious equipment, but he didn't know whether they were as strong as the exaggerated appearance.

"Let the guards load all the Dimension Stone bullets! The remaining artillery also turn their muzzles and load the Dimension Stone armor-piercing bullets! In short, use all our armor-piercing firepower!"

Such a large number of extraordinary cavalry was too terrifying, and Ickert deployed all the remaining heavy firepower, including the high-end guns, in front of the formation.

But even so, it will not be easy to block this cavalry.

So a doomsday rocket was launched decisively. Only such a powerful attack could stop the cavalry's charge.

Lafayette also lived up to his expectations, the first doomsday rocket accurately hit the extraordinary cavalry.

But when the mushroom cloud dissipated, these extraordinary people rushed out unscathed.

Leonardo held up the "high-level shield gem", and the light blue light firmly protected all the cavalry.

But that's all. Due to the frenzied power of the doomsday rocket, the magic circuit inside the shield gem was overloaded and burned quickly, and the remaining part became hot like magma, forcing Leonardo to throw it away. .

This blow also allowed him to clearly understand the strength of Windsor, which is equivalent to the high-level shield gems that the entire knight order earns for half a year. Leonardo only had deep fear in his heart when he was crushed so lightly. .

If he gets hit by this, he might shed his skin even if he doesn't die.

Not long after, the second doomsday rocket also began to take off, and Leonardo quickly pulled out another "Gust Blessing", trying to interfere with the flight of the doomsday rocket.

But under Lafayette's control, the doomsday rocket still hit the cavalry formation.

The 30 low-level knights on the periphery were blown up instantly, and their horses and men were smashed into pieces.

The horrifying scene made the surviving knights feel terrified, and no one dared to imagine what would happen if they were hit by that thing.

"We can't save energy anymore, the last 200 meters! Charge!"

Leonardo tightened his grip on the horse's belly and rushed forward, leading the team into a wedge formation.

At the same time, the warpstone armor-piercing projectiles also began to exert force, and from time to time, intermediate knights would be directly smashed into pieces.

In the face of artillery fire, they were as weak as ordinary people, and the shining enchanted armor seemed to not exist at all.

The last time the Knights felt this kind of threat was from the high-ranking mages, but even mages, none of them devoted themselves to researching armor-piercing technology all day long.

The remaining 250 knights crossed the front line of the battle between the zombies and the ratmen, and an officer organized a round of shooting at them, killing ten hapless low-ranking knights.

These knights were not fatally injured, but were passively dismounted from their horses. They resolutely gave up chasing the large army and rushed towards the Ratmen's line instead.

Leonardo finally led the team to Ickert's front, so close to the point where the Skaven couldn't use the Doomsday Rocket.

In front of them, there were only the last 500 Jackal slaves and soldiers of the Guards.

Raising guns and artillery to launch the final interception, the knights around Leonardo finally began to drop sharply. In front of the most powerful firepower of the Ratman, more than 100 extraordinary fell in the last five seconds before the breakthrough.
