king of the castle

Chapter 71 Fierce Battle

Hundreds of bone horses rushed towards the fortification formed by the carriages at the same time, and everyone felt the ground tremble slightly before they reached the front. 【】Roger stood behind the spear militiamen, staring at the undead cavalrymen who were getting closer, with a nervous expression on his face.

This is Roger's first time facing a cavalry charge. Although he has long known that it is very difficult to deal with charge cavalry on the plains, only when he is really facing such a situation, and only when he is really on the scene, can he understand that a cavalry How difficult it is to deal with cavalry who are fully charged.

Although the undead cavalry were wearing tattered armor, after they charged close, Roger realized that there were only miserable bones left in the armor.When approaching Roger and the others, the undead cavalry opened their mouths and shouted loudly, and then urged the bone horse to slam into it.

The spear militiamen have long been ready to fight under Roger's order. They are as fearless as undead creatures, and they have not flinched even in the face of the bone horse running wildly.The sharp long spears stood up obliquely, forming a forest of spears, just waiting for the enemy to come up and die.

In just the blink of an eye, the few bone horses running in the front had crashed into the ranks of the spear militiamen.The huge impact force knocked many long-spear militiamen in the first row back and flew back, and the long-spears of several people were also broken.Several spear militiamen fell to the ground and never got up again, being directly hit to death by the huge impact.

Fortunately, with the carriage as a cover, the area that needs to be defended has become smaller, and Roger was able to arrange more than three rows of spear militiamen in every gap.Although the spear militiamen in the first row were knocked down a lot, the soldiers in the second and third rows remained motionless, preventing the undead knights from continuing to charge.

Although Roger suffered some losses from the charge of the undead cavalry, they also paid a considerable price.All the bone horses that rushed to the front were stabbed by spears, and few of them could stand still.The cavalry on them flew forward due to huge inertia, and many of them fell directly into a pile of broken bones after falling to the ground.A few undead cavalry who were still intact by luck had just stood up, but were cut down by the swarming dagger fighters, and couldn't get up again.

At the same time, more undead cavalry had rushed.These guys who knew no fear and no fear of death charged towards the spear militia one after another, knowing that they could not break through the opponent's defense, but they still rode their horses into the long spears without the slightest hesitation.Because of the large number of undead cavalry, and the area Roger left for them to attack was too narrow, many undead cavalry even directly crashed into the overturned carriage.

Marcus's character is extremely bad, but the quality of the carriage is very good.Even if it was hit by the undead cavalry charging at high speed, the carriage did not suffer much damage.Instead, those undead cavalry collided with their bone horses, and many of them even extinguished the fire of the soul directly.

Under such a desperate attack by the undead cavalry, Roger was naturally under tremendous pressure.Not long after the two sides had been in contact, the number of spear militiamen had decreased a lot.In order to prevent the undead creatures from breaking through the defense circle, Roger could only order the dagger soldiers to stand behind the spear militiamen, serving as the second and third layers of defense.

Although the strength of the dagger soldiers was the same as that of the pike militiamen, they were all at the primary level of black iron, but their weapons were really not suitable for fighting cavalry, so the defense line became even more precarious.

At this time, another large group of undead cavalry charged from the front. Roger quickly ordered the spear militia defending in other directions to rush to support, but in the end it was still a step late.The undead cavalry rushing forward sacrificed themselves and tore a small hole in the defense line.The same kind following them seized this opportunity and rushed into the bunker surrounded by the carriage.

"Unlucky!" Roger couldn't help but sigh inwardly when he saw this, but he also knew that now was not the time to sigh.These undead cavalry must be eliminated as soon as possible to avoid more casualties.So Roger ordered the spear militiamen to rush over to fill the gap in the defense line, and drew out his long sword to face the enemy.

These undead cavalrymen finally rushed in, facing so many humans, they were a little dazed for a moment, not knowing which one to kill first.At this moment, Roger happened to appear in front of him, and the undead cavalry immediately attacked him instinctively.Several rusty spears stabbed at Roger at the same time, and if he was not careful, he would be nailed to the ground.

Fortunately, Roger now has the strength of the black iron level anyway, so it is not difficult to deal with a few ordinary undead cavalry.With a slight shake, he avoided the oncoming spear, rushed to the side of the undead cavalry with one stride, and slashed down heavily with his sword.

At this time of life and death, Roger naturally used all his strength.The long sword slashed heavily at the undead cavalry's body, cutting it into two pieces including the leather armor.Roger, who succeeded in one blow, didn't stop, and cut off the bone horse's head with his sword.He stomped on the skull of the bone-crushing horse, swung his sword and rushed towards another undead cavalry.

Losing the power of charging, the power of the undead cavalry is much smaller.But fighting in such a relatively small place, the cavalry seemed a little clumsy.Roger arrived behind the undead cavalry in a flash, and the guy quickly reined in his horse and wanted to turn around, but Roger had already cut off the bone horse's hind legs with his sword.The unbalanced undead cavalry fell back immediately, and Roger chopped off his head before it hit the ground.

At the same time, Mike and others also worked together to eliminate another undead cavalry.Although Eddie was slightly injured in the battle, he finally eliminated the imminent threat.

The undead cavalry breaking through the line of defense also reminded Roger that he must not be careless in the face of these guys.Especially when there are fewer and fewer soldiers under his command, a slight negligence may cause fatal consequences.

Somewhat to Roger's consolation, the undead cavalry lost more than he did.Originally more than 100 undead cavalry massacred refugees wantonly on both sides of the road, but now there are less than [-] left.Most of the undead cavalry were wiped out when they attacked Roger and others, and turned into broken bones scattered around the carriage.

The undead cavalry already had simple wisdom. After paying a heavy price, they also seemed to realize that this group of humans was difficult to deal with, and finally gave up attacking Roger and the others, regrouped and rushed towards the direction of Linton Pass go.

In fact, at this time, Roger's side is already at the end of its strength. If the undead cavalry continue to attack, even if they can be completely wiped out, they will definitely have to pay heavy casualties.So after the undead cavalry retreated, everyone including Roger couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Roger quickly remembered a terrible thing, and lost his voice in the direction where the undead cavalry left: "Not good!"
