Real Mount and Blade Game
Chapter 298 The Slope of Bone Residues
"Hold on, hold on, everyone hold on!" On the city wall, Fatis' shout had resounded throughout the entire wall. Now he was not standing on the top of the taller arrow tower next to him. Instead, he stood behind the baffle of the city wall, leading the Swadian infantry, light infantry and sergeants beside him to resist the continuous attacks of the Skeleton Legion.
"Kill, kill, kill! For the Kingdom of Swadia! For Lord Shen Mu!"
And right beside him, whether it was the third-level Swadian light infantry, the fourth-level Swadian infantry, or the fifth-level Swadian sergeants, they were all shouting along with Fatis at this time.
He raised the spears and lances in his hands, held up the fan-shaped shield in his hands, and fought back against the skeleton warriors that continued to arrive from outside.
Because just outside the city wall under their feet was a large slope of earth formed by white bones, which appeared in front of their horrified eyes in a short period of time.
This allowed the skeleton warriors, skeleton spearmen and skeleton archers outside to walk up the slope formed by bones step by step with their weapons, quickly reach the city wall and launch a direct attack on them.
Moreover, before that, they were outside the moat under the city wall, helpless and could only shoot arrows. However, they did not expect that in just a short moment, they saw the scattered bone fragments around them were gathered by special magical power to form this slope that was 10 meters wide and 20 meters long, extending to the usual top.
The Swadian defenders on the city wall were immediately engaged in the most intense offensive and defensive battle.
And it was also the most intense battle for the city wall.
"Kill, kill, kill! Kill, kill, kill!" At the forefront of this earth slope are the 5th-level Swadian sergeants and the 4th-level Swadian infantrymen. They are all elite heavy infantry wearing heavy chain mail and chain mail. They are the key force used to maintain the front line in the Swadian Kingdom.
At this time, the soldiers on the city wall are also key soldiers who protect the city wall from being occupied.
After all, these Swadian heavy infantry are not so outstanding compared to the elite heavy cavalry of the Swadian Kingdom, and are only of middle-class level on the roads of the Calradia continent.
Compared with the Rhodok soldiers who split from the Kingdom of Swadia and were specifically used to hold the line, their defense and holding capabilities were far inferior.
But with the excellent equipment and armor on his body, it is enough to hold the line.
What's more, they are just facing a group of skeleton warriors, whose real combat power is only around level three. It is only because the number is increased too much and there are no physical strength and morale restrictions that they can be barely defined as a level three army.
If we only talk about individual combat capability, it is at the lower level of the second order.
So, when this 10-meter earth slope appeared in front of these elite Swadian heavy infantry, although the width of the city wall was only three meters, these Swadian heavy infantry were able to easily withstand the impact of these skeleton warriors.
Besides, the three-finger-thick baffle in front of them was still playing a role, and they only needed to place their heavy spears, lances, and pikes flat, and then stab outwards to keep the skeleton warriors that appeared on the slope out.
Together with the archers and crossbowmen on the towers on the left and right sides, they continued to shoot at the slope formed by the bone residue.
The light crossbows, crossbows and light catapults on the tower were still firing continuously, bombarding the huge ramp formed by bone fragments and the black mist outside.
Therefore, the east side of the city wall is relatively safe to defend.
In addition, Fatis also summoned the Swadian militia to use their hunting crossbows as long-range shooters to continuously shoot at the skeleton warriors that were rushing up the slope.
For a moment, it seemed that all the skeletons had surged up the slope and rushed towards the city wall, but they had no practical effect at all. They could not even climb up the real city wall. When they were halfway up or close to the city wall, they were beaten into a pile of useless bones by the Swadian soldiers, which rolled down the slope with a loud noise.
Because of the slope of the earth slope, the skeleton army behind accidentally stepped on the skeletons that had been scattered on the ground, causing their movements to become unstable. Many skeleton warriors even fell backwards and fell down together.
Creates a better defensive effect.
"Pay more attention and don't let your guard down. Everyone be prepared for battle. Others should move forward, take their places, and do a good job of rotation." Fatis was still giving instructions at the front line at this time.
After all, he understood that for those skeleton undead who had no physical limitations and relied entirely on negative energy to propel themselves.
Physical strength is not a problem at all, and morale does not fluctuate at all.
It would be enough for these undead souls who had already died long ago to raise their weapons and rush towards them one after another. As long as the sun did not rise, they would be able to launch attacks endlessly at every moment and attack them continuously.
Even if all the undead skeleton warriors in front were dead, there would be nothing to be afraid of for the undead and warriors behind.
Perhaps this is the horror of undead creatures.
Now he and his Swadian soldiers were facing this kind of horrible undead monster. Although they had encountered monsters under the rules of the dead before, this was the first time they had participated in a formal siege battle.
Moreover, as soon as he came into contact with Fatis, he discovered the terrifying nature of these undead creatures that had no morale or physical limits.
Compared to the Blue Star humans and their spiritual followers who had attacked them before, or the Abyss Demons or Hell Devils, they actually had morale limits and physical strength, although the ferocity of their attacks was several times stronger than now. But this continuous attack still made him feel some pressure.
This is really stressful because the constant attack, using the lives of one's own undead creatures to continuously exhaust the physical and mental strength of the defenders, really brings a lot of pressure.
The battle had been going on for about half an hour now, and Fatis had already seen that the Swadian soldiers defending that section of the city wall were beginning to gasp for breath.
Even though the Swadian sergeants, Swadian infantrymen, and Swadian light infantrymen were still defending strongly against the attacks of the skeleton legions, they could clearly feel that their attacks, which were swift and deadly at the beginning, had become slower. The frequency of their attacks was about two or three times slower than at the beginning, and the skeleton legions were getting closer and closer to the shield on the city wall, even with the rotten arrows and feather arrow fragments that were still shooting up from behind.
These skeleton legions had already reached the three-finger-thick wooden baffle, and swung their equally rotten scimitars or long swords, chopping at the baffle with crackling sounds.
There was a banging sound.
Of course, when the banging sounds appeared, the Swadian soldiers behind would directly smash the skeleton soldiers who approached the baffle but had no way to climb over into bone powder.
This is also the weakness of these undead, low-level skeletons.
That's not flexible enough.
Unless the stronger undead monsters have their own certain intelligence, or special undead forms and undead races, they will know how to climb over some obstacles or use tools to overcome obstacles.
For example, those intelligent and powerful higher-level vampires, or those low-level vampires and vampire puppets.
However, for these skeletons, there is no way to directly climb over the two-meter-high, heavy, and angled baffle.
After all, for these skeletons, they were able to come to the city wall thanks to the spell of extraordinary power released by their general, which formed the slope of bones that allowed them to come to the top of the city wall and to the baffle.
As for climbing over the barrier or attacking the human soldiers behind the barrier, that is definitely impossible, because the main task of these skeleton legions now is to break these barriers first.
This is also the reason why these skeleton legions would take their rotten weapons and smash them deeply into these baffles, even if these rotten weapons in their hands would directly shatter after hitting these baffles, they would not hesitate.
Only those skeletons holding skeleton weapons can use the bone tools that shine with metallic luster to make these baffles bang.
But even so, these skeleton legions appeared here and had no way to get rid of these wooden baffles in a short time.
This resulted in them being trapped on the slope outside the baffle.
"Fatis, what's the situation?" At this time, Shen Mu also quickly came to the east wall from the west wall, and there was worry on his face, because he did not expect that at such a critical moment, there would be a slope formed by bone residues, which came directly from the ground to his wall, allowing those skeletons to directly attack his wall.
This is clearly the power of magic.
"It's OK, Lord Shen Mu, please rest assured, we can still hold on for now." Fatis nodded when he saw Shen Mu coming over, and pointed to the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs who were still waiting on the stairs. He said confidently, "There are also these Lake Rat Gang saboteurs who can be deployed to the city wall at any time to replace those Swadian soldiers. After all, the defensive capabilities of these Lake Rat Gang saboteurs are also trustworthy."
"Well, that's good, that's good. You must guard the east side of the city wall well. After all, this side is too dangerous." Shen Mu also breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
Since Fascis has already made all the arrangements, he can of course breathe a sigh of relief and just hand this over to Fatis. He has also withdrawn some of the troops that belonged to Resarit's defense on the west wall and mainly came to the east gate to prevent the east wall and gate from being breached by the Skeleton Legion.
"By the way, Lord Shen Mu, how have the issues concerning the Blue Star humans in the town of Dehrim been resolved?" Fatis suddenly asked at this time.
"Well, let the humans on Blue Star solve their own problems. I've sent Zhang Bo over." Shen Mu frowned, then he remembered that Zhang Bo had reported to him when those undead monsters just started attacking the city.
The content of the report was that some remnants of the Diesel Company had appeared among the Blue Star humans that he had taken in, and were taking advantage of the most important defensive moment to cause chaos in the town of Dehrim.
Why would Fatis ask this now?
Of course, they are also afraid that when they are defending, they will be attacked from both inside and outside, which may cause problems in their defense, which would be bad.
After all, many sturdy castles were not built by enemies directly from the outside using the simplest force, but many were breached with the cooperation of spies inside.
So be careful.
"Let Zhang Bo handle it. After all, he is also a Blue Star human. If there is anything, he can handle it. And I have asked Zhang Bo to find Zhang Caidong. They should be able to solve it themselves." Shen Mu frowned and did not care about the Blue Star humans in the town areas of Dehrim.
After all, for him, the Blue Star humans can manage themselves. Even if they riot, what impact will it have on him? After all, if the Blue Star humans really cooperate with the undead monsters outside to attack his city walls, then after those undead monsters enter Dehrium, will they let those Blue Star humans go? You must know that the spirit world races and the Blue Star humans are the real allies, while those undead monsters outside have always been the executioners and slaughterers.
Shen Mu didn't believe that the humans on Blue Star would be so stupid.
That's why he let his guard down.
At this time, Zhang Bo had already hurried to the area where the conflict occurred, but he was shocked, especially when he saw those bloody and excited senior managers. He was shocked: "Where are those middle-level managers? Where did they go? What happened to you?"
Zhang Bo felt something was wrong.
Although he really wanted to mess up the middle-level managers and senior managers and let them kill each other, if he really went too far and these senior managers directly destroyed the middle-level managers, then the details of his subsequent plans would not fit.
And now Zhang Bo discovered that this seemed to be the real reason, and the thing he least wanted to see might have really happened.
And Zhang Bo also found that the plan seemed beyond his control. (End of this chapter)
