Rise In Calradia

Chapter 128: : Battle in the town

  The hammers of the mercenaries kept hitting the gate, and the temporarily reinforced gate was quickly dented, and the cracks spread on the door panel.

   Rodok crossbowmen kept aiming at the mercenaries below and shooting their own crossbow arrows, and the spearmen behind the gate also used their bodies to block the gate.

   A few crossbow arrows shot past, a light infantry helmet was directly pierced, he waved his arms a few times, and then fell down. Two other soldiers were also hit by crossbow arrows, covering their wounds and retreating, while the mercenaries behind also picked up the hammers and directly filled the vacancies just now.

   and the Vicia archers on the other side of the trench also raised their bows, hitting expensive cone-head arrows, and then aimed at the Rodok crossbowmen who bowed their heads and wound their strings. Once the cone-headed arrow falls on those people in the form of a parabola, even the thick lock armor and poor-quality breastplate will be directly penetrated.

   Their rate of fire is seven times faster than that of the opponent, and they have a great advantage in shooting each other. After a few rounds of shooting, the Vicia archers killed three crossbowmen, suppressing the other crossbowmen and dared not raise their heads.

   But they didn't hold on for too long. When the following mercenaries rushed up with the hammer, the wooden door was finally punched out of a hole under the constant impact. The surrounding mercenaries also used axes and warhammers to expand the head-sized hole to more than half a meter wide. Then a mercenary cavalry with an iron guard approached the hole and stabbed a spearman behind the door with a sword. On the chest, when the opponent released his hand, he put his entire arm in and pushed the door bolt open.

   A sword slashed into his hand, rubbing a series of sparks on the guard. Then the mercenary cavalry stepped back and kicked the door vigorously. The rest of the mercenaries also squeezed up, constantly using short weapons to gouge the Rhodok guards in this crowded environment.

The soldiers’ bodies were huddled together, yelling and screaming mixed with the friction of the armor. The only people behind could see the arms holding the military **** and the war hammer. They saw those arms waving downwards and then carrying them. The blood lifted up again.

The Rhodok guards fought fiercely, but there were less than 30 guards in charge of the South Gate, and the number of soldiers in disguise was less than 50, and the main body was the Rhodok Spearman and the skilled lancer. Spearmen, as well as skilled crossbowmen, are only level 3 on average. It is not an opponent of a large number of experienced mercenaries at all.

   Equipped spearmen can still stand up a little bit. Those soldiers who have been disguised can't help it. Their equipment is poor, and there is really no advantage in fighting.

   The strong mercenaries carried the hammer and broke through the defense line of the Rodok soldiers holding the shield, and the mercenaries behind also broke through the gap and flanked them from behind. This line of defense made up of the body only existed for a few minutes before it collapsed under the fierce attack of the Peony mercenaries.

However, the follow-up Rhodok reinforcements arrived soon. When they saw the mercenaries rushing into the city gate, they immediately lined up, raised their spears in unison, blocked the entire road, and advanced slowly step by step. .

   Several mercenaries rushed up with spears and long swords, but as soon as the other's spears were stretched out, they all assassinated them.

   Byron had already used a ladder to climb to the top of the wall under the protection of John, and saw the solid Rhodok infantry phalanx resembling a tortoise shell. In this kind of street fighting situation, although the movement and transformation of the phalanx were restricted, they took the road and speared in one fell swoop, and they could crush their troops in the same way as tanks.

   "Use a hammer!"

   Byron yelled, and a crossbow arrow flew towards his head. Byron lowered his head subconsciously, and John's shield also covered his body.

   The crossbow arrow was firmly nailed to the shield, although it was a little frightened, Fortunately Byron was unscathed.

   At this time, a hammer was also carried in, and the other mercenaries began to retreat. Although they were more numerous, they didn't have the guts to approach the shield formation with the broad shield and spear.

   But under Byron's order, several veterans of the Peony Mercenary Team also bite the bullet and raised the hammer together, and then rushed over with shouts.

   And the other Peony veterans also raised their weapons and followed. This atmosphere spread immediately. Under the leadership of these two hammers, most of the soldiers rushed towards the solid Rodok phalanx.

The hammer quickly hit the Rodok broad shield. Under the combined impact of the six men, two Rodok soldiers were directly knocked to the ground, and the people behind them were also forced to retreat. Some people also fell in the process.

   And the surrounding spears also pierced out at this time, piercing the bodies of the first few mercenaries. The soldiers screamed and fell down, but the hammer still continued to slam forward ~www.readwn.com~ because behind them, there were many peony mercenaries holding on to the end of the big log.

   The phalanx was opened, and the two hammers successfully penetrated through the gap. But this does not mean they succeeded. Because as soon as the soldiers holding the hammer rushed in, the Rodok spearmen who had just made way for them on both sides plunged their spears into their bodies from both sides.

The gap in front of    was blocked by the Rodok spearmen, and the soldiers holding the hammer were also stabbed to death under pincers from both directions.

   But just by killing them, these Rhodoc soldiers can't win. The number of mercenaries is more than three times that of them, and many of them are experienced veterans. They can use shields to block the attack of spears, smash their arms with warhammers, and stab their bodies through the gaps with long swords.

At this time, the mercenaries who followed also threw the fallen weapons on the ground at the Rhodok phalanx. Because the number of people was small and the position above their heads was not adequately defended, at least five people in the phalanx were affected by these. The weapon was wounded.

   "Continue to attack, they don't have many people!"

   And Byron also found that the thickness of the square was average, and the number of soldiers was not more than fifty. So he personally got down from the fence, shouting to cheer up the soldiers, while raising the mace to take the lead and rushing over.

  Fatis was shocked when he saw Byron suddenly appearing in front of the team, and hurriedly ran to protect Byron. And Eleon also swung his moonblade long axe, smashed the opponent's defense with the axe, and then sent them directly on the road.

   Under the leadership of Byron and the heroes, the morale of the mercenaries was boosted. Their attacks were even more frenzied, and the Rodok phalanx continued to retreat under this offensive and revealed a gap.

   Soon, the Nanmen area was completely taken down by the Peony mercenaries.
