Chapter 264 Fierce Battle

Those enemies who could become members of the viscount's guard were naturally veterans who had experienced many battles. 【】In the viscount guard, even a small captain has at least the strength of the black iron level. Some captains and the commander of the entire guard, Royce, have the title of knight.

These people can be said to be the most elite army under Wood. Although they were caught off guard by Roger, they quickly calmed down.Under the command of a captain, the soldiers of the viscount's guard approached the wall in a neat formation. Behind them were several soldiers in full body armor. These people were the personal bodyguards of Old Wood and Albert.Old Wood also knew that the situation was very serious this time, so he asked his bodyguards to support the viscount's guard.

There were nearly two hundred of these people in total, and the soldiers in the front row all held up large shields to defend against the attacks of the crossbowmen and provide cover for their comrades behind them.Behind these soldiers, a captain of archers in turn launched a suppressive shot at Roger's soldiers.For a moment, the arrows shot by both sides shuttled back and forth in the air, which looked very spectacular.

Although the viscount guard's counterattack was fierce, it was nothing in the eyes of Roger, who had experienced many battles.While letting the crossbowmen on the wall suppress the enemy with all their strength, he made the soldiers at the gate of the city ready for battle.

The crossbowmen under Roger immediately began to shoot with all their strength, but because the viscount's guards were equipped with large shields and inlaid armors that were far more defensive than leather armor, the results of the crossbowmen's battles were not obvious.After several rounds of shooting, only a dozen or so enemies fell to the ground, and more people had rushed through the short distance of dozens of steps between the viscount's residence and the wall, and began to speed up their pace to attack Roger's men in front of the gate. charged.

"Everyone is ready to fight!" Roger gave an order to the soldiers under him through a spiritual connection, and the weapons in the iron spear soldiers' hands immediately fell horizontally, forming a wall of dead spears in front of the formation.And the longsword warriors behind them were also ready to fight, their gleaming longswords had all been unsheathed, just waiting to drink the blood of the enemy.

The viscount's guards came so fast that the longbowman only had time to shoot the last round of sharp arrows at them, and the two sides collided heavily, making a loud "boom".

In the instant before the real battle started, more than 20 members of the viscount's guard were pierced by iron spears, and at the same time, more than a dozen iron spear fighters became victims of the opponent.

Roger, who was standing on the city wall, was also secretly a little startled when he saw this scene. The loss ratio of the two sides unexpectedly reached an astonishing 1:2, which he had never experienced before in battles.The strength of the viscount's guards should not be underestimated, they were a little underestimated before.

What Roger didn't know was that at the same time the captain of the viscount's guard was more surprised than he was.The viscount's guard is the most elite army under Wood. Not to mention that there is no army that can match it in Telly County, even in the entire kingdom, this army can be regarded as an elite army.

However, it is such an army that lost twice as much as the enemy in battle.This made the captain turn pale with fright. He didn't know how so many powerful enemies got into the Viscount's mansion without being discovered at all.

"Longsword warrior, attack!" As soon as the two sides came into contact, Roger immediately issued a second order.

Although the long weapons of the iron spear soldiers gave them a great advantage in defense, once the two sides fought together, the long iron spears seemed a little powerless.And this is when the longsword fighters take advantage of it. Their longsword has a good balance in terms of aggression and agility, and is most suitable for the current melee.

In order to prevent the enemy from attacking outside the Viscount's Mansion, Roger arranged about half of the soldiers on the wall, and there were only more than 200 people who actually guarded the gate.The difference in numbers between the two sides is not that big, and they are evenly matched when they are together at this time.

However, Roger's advantage is that all the soldiers under him are not afraid of death, and they are not affected by negative emotions such as fear, despair, panic, etc. in battle, and only know how to fully implement Roger's orders.In addition, they are tireless at all, and even if they suffer a little injury, it will not affect the battle at all. They are completely a group of machines that only know how to fight.

Although the members of the viscount's guard are all elites, they are composed of real people after all.Since you are a normal person, you will know fear, and you will feel pain when you are injured. Of course, you are more afraid of being killed by the enemy, and you will naturally feel tired after fighting for a long time.

So after the battle went on for a while, the balance of victory inevitably began to tilt towards Roger.The soldiers of the viscount's guard had already suffered heavy casualties. About a hundred people either died in battle or were seriously injured to fight again.Although Roger also lost thirty of his men, the remaining soldiers were still full of fighting spirit. Even if they were injured, they didn't have the slightest intention of retreating, and they still tried their best to attack the enemy.

Under such a great pressure, the viscount's guard finally couldn't hold on, and began to retreat slowly.However, this team is worthy of being an elite division, and in this case, they only retreated instead of being defeated.The soldiers who were still able to move formed a formation and retreated slowly, and the longbowmen behind them were watching fiercely, which made Roger dispel the idea of ​​ordering his men to pursue.

Although the pursuit can destroy some enemies at this time, it will also cost a lot.This is not a wise choice for Roger, who has limited opponents and faces two-line battles at the same time.

So Roger just ordered the crossbowman to launch two rounds of shooting. After shooting down more than a dozen enemies, the first official confrontation between the two sides ended here.

"Unfortunately, more enemies were not eliminated." Seeing that the enemies all retreated to the big house where Wood lived, Roger also cried out in his heart what a pity.

The soldiers of the viscount guard are all elite fighters, and their soul power is much stronger than that of ordinary people.Roger just gained a lot of soul power just by eliminating more than 100 enemies.It is said that the strength of the entire viscount's guard is close to [-]. Roger figured that if he could kill all these guys, the collected soul power would be almost enough to raise the castle to level four.

This idea inspired Roger greatly, and his fighting spirit, which was already very strong, became even more high-spirited.Taking advantage of the gap in the battle, he brought the injured soldiers back to the secondary space to heal their injuries, and at the same time asked the castle hub to train more soldiers.Now that Roger has decided to make a big move in the city of Karachi, of course he must have stronger strength in his hand.

While Roger was preparing for the battle with full confidence, two magical fireworks suddenly shot out from the roof of the Viscount's Mansion.The fireworks went straight into the air before they exploded, and the whole city of Karachi could clearly see it.Of course Roger knew that this was definitely not the enemy celebrating, but that they were asking for help from the outside world, because he would soon face more enemy attacks.
