Chapter 212 Defending the City 1
After entering the city and stepping on the solid city wall, Zhang Qiang and the others felt safer and more at ease.

Tilburg has not changed because of the arrival of these knights.

The person in charge of defending the city was an earl named Melter.

This is also his territory.

Earl Melt, with blond hair, of medium height, with a blond mustache, looks ordinary, wearing a large winged helmet, covered in plate armor, and looks very tall in terms of defense.

He had an epee on his back, and a Germanic longsword hanging from his waist. When he walked, he walked swiftly and resolutely, and the ground felt a little shaking when he stepped on it. It looked like the kind of fierce general who went to battle and fought extremely bravely.

After asking them a few words, they were sent to the city to rest.

Sam approached Zhang Qiang, "How strong do you think he is?"

Zhang Qiang shook his head, without the reminder of the game ring, he really couldn't tell which NPC's strength level from a person's appearance.

Simon touched the wound on his neck that was pierced by the feather arrow, tilted his head and said: "I think he has at least level four strength, and this old guy is not short of money."

James smiled and said: "Yes, a lord who can wear full-body plate armor must not be short of money. You need to know that the large-winged helmet with the highest defense in Calradia is not worth 20 gold coins. "

Zhang Qiang turned his head and asked, "With such a high price for a large winged helmet, how much is its defensive power?"

Simon said: "The best defensive power is 110, and the defense power is almost 85, that is to say, without the strength of the third level, you will definitely not be able to split it with a single knife, and you will not be able to split it without a good knife. Use your sword to stab through the gap in the front of his opening. Of course, you must have such high agility, or have the same strength as him, otherwise, it is not your sword that penetrates the gap in his helmet, but the one on his back. That heavy sword cut you in half, or split you in half from head to toe."

Zhang Qiang opened his mouth wide, but didn't close it for a long time. This guy's strength seemed to surpass Rolf's, so he might be able to fight against a knight of the dark series.

"Why do you say that there are so few dark knights on the mainland, but their strength is so high?"

James thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's because Calradia is protected by the gods."

Simon said: "Not exactly, because the Calradia continent was actually disconnected from other continents hundreds of years ago. The other continents on the land cannot pass through and are completely closed. Only the sea, but the sea It's vast, if there is no one who knows the route, it is impossible to come here."

Sam took a bite of the beef jerky and said, "The situation on the sea is ever-changing, with all kinds of dangers, and most of the ships can't sail long distances, so people from the dark side can't get through. Hmph, how did the bandits from the Nord Kingdom come here?" Yes, that's because the sea was not so violent a hundred years ago, and their homeland is actually not far from here. That fellow Ragnar somehow found a way to come to the mainland. When the Kingdom of Swadia fought with the Rhodoks, they took down the seaside area of ​​the Kingdom of Swadia, and fought wars with the Vikians who had entered the mainland for decades."

"In fact, the Nord Kingdom has existed for a long time, but it was a small, loose kingdom alliance jointly established by Ragnar's ancestors and some lords of the Swadia Kingdom by the sea. Ragnar just picked peaches. That's all."

Zhang Qiang supported his cheeks and said, "That means that Ragnar and his Nord Kingdom's people are actually people from the Calradia continent, but it's just an offshore territory."

Simon thought for a while and nodded, "Almost, the Dark One is actually a distant sea, or some kind of power is needed to come from a distant continent to the Calradia continent, and this way does not seem to be stable. They come once It is impossible to have too many people. And there are fewer people in the Diablo series, and it is impossible to compete with any of the six kingdoms on the mainland, so some people hide and do some deeds similar to criminals , suddenly attack the army of the kingdom camp."

A few people chatted and rested for about two hours, and a small captain-level infantryman of the Kingdom of Swadia ran up to them and said to them: "The lord ordered you to immediately participate in the next round of defense on the city wall."

They were taken to the city wall by the soldiers, and this city wall was exactly the city wall they had seen attacked by the Kingdom of Vikia earlier.

The battlements have been smashed to pieces by the stones thrown by the trebuchets, and many places have lost the battlements that people can hide from, like bread eaten by dogs, with pits and holes.

The ground is also rough, and there are even cracks in some places. If you don't pay attention, if you step on it, you may not break your leg.

The wooden corridor platform on the inner edge of the city wall was also beaten intermittently and lost its function.

Hundreds of wooden ladders were erected on the wooden platform inside the city wall, and a steady stream of soldiers, weapons, bows and arrows were transported up.

The soldiers began to line up facing the outside of the wall, and the crossbowmen began to shoot at the Vikir soldiers who had approached again.

Zhang Qiang and the others found that they were being used as ordinary infantry.

Rather than being assigned to command a small group of soldiers because of the status of a knight, or to stand with those knights and high-ranking soldiers and generals who lead the army to meet the enemy.

The soldier captain pointed them to a place and went down.

Several people looked at each other, smiled wryly, then picked up the light crossbow scattered on the ground, and started shooting at the Vikia siege soldiers running under the city wall.

To be honest, Zhang Qiang had never practiced crossbows, so his combat power was now zero, and he could only waste the bundles of crossbows on the city walls.

He shot a dozen arrows before throwing them down, not wasting crossbow arrows anymore.

Quietly wait for the enemy to attack the city wall, and then fight the enemy hand-to-hand.

He has fought in hand-to-hand combat several times.

Not unfamiliar.

There are not many soldiers on the city wall. Zhang Qiang made a rough calculation. There are only a few hundred soldiers on the city wall less than two miles away. Most of them are ordinary crossbowmen. There were less than a dozen high-ranking soldiers, but there were about thirty knights and a lord.

The stones thrown by Vikia's trebuchet were like locusts, whistling and smashing towards them.

Zhang Qiang lowered his head subconsciously, trying to find a place to hide.

But when he saw the soldiers guarding the city standing quietly, unmoved, he couldn't help but blush.

After observing for a while, Zhang Qiang could see that most of the targets of the trebuchets were aimed at the watchtowers and arrow towers, and only a few were aimed at the city walls.

However, most of them were not accurate, either flying into the castle, or falling under the city wall, hitting their own troops.

Most of them hit the bottom of the city wall, and very few hit the higher parts of the city wall, causing a wave of shaking, and some of them hit soldiers. When a stone fell down, a dozen soldiers flew up from the city wall, blood and flesh flying all over the place. , The screams are practiced.

But that was really rare. After half an hour of smashing stones, there were only two hits on soldiers on the city wall.

The bed crossbows are the ones with higher aim, but the bed crossbows are for attacking the city gate.

The arrows thrown to the sky by the Vikia soldiers below are the enemies of the soldiers defending the city.

Their accuracy is very high, and once more than 30 Vikia soldiers shoot from one place, it will form a rain of arrows, just like the sky is raining, and the arrows rush straight down from the head, With the kinetic energy of the fall, it was fixed on the shield in the soldier's hand.

There was a clanging sound, mixed with the screams of some unlucky ones.

Behind Zhang Qiang and the others was a group of sword and shield soldiers, raising their shields to protect their heads and in front of them.

Give them a chance to fire back at enemies with crossbow bolts.

The Vikia soldiers rushed to the city wall, and the enemy's arrow rain and catapults stopped the attack of the bed crossbow.

Before Zhang Qiang's eyes were enemy soldiers climbing up like ants.

There were also battle roars from the soldiers on both sides approaching a few meters away, as agreed upon.

Then the two sides come and go, attacking each other with guns, knives, broadswords, hooks and sickles, axes, and hammers.

Zhang Qiang and several knights pushed away the enemy's ladder vigorously, and pushed a long line of enemies down the city wall, like dumpling, the enemies fell to the bottom of the city wall one after another, screaming one after another.

But the enemy also has masters, nimble fighters, before you can probe, they have already climbed up, jumped on the city wall, and slashed and killed.

The follow-up enemies rushed up one after another. Zhang Qiang and the others suddenly found that the surroundings were full of enemies. Those hundreds of soldiers were rushed up the city wall without much effect. .

"Close to me." Zhang Qiang made a cry from the bottom of his heart.A self-preserving move.

Many people can withstand the enemy's attack.

Fighting alone can only be defeated by a large number of enemy troops.

But obviously his appeal was insufficient, and only the five knights who came with him approached him.

There were originally six knights, but when they were chased to the bottom of the city wall of Tilburg, the unlucky knight was shot by an arrow, and then the Vikia cavalry rushed to the bottom of the city wall and captured him.

Several people formed a circle, coping with the siege from Vikia soldiers.

Fortunately, these soldiers are not of high rank, they are all ordinary soldiers.

The armor on their bodies, the highest grade is only cotton armor, not all, some soldiers even rushed over wearing only single clothes.

"Knight Zhang Qiang, where are you going? Where do you need our support? Didn't you see that the enemy has surrounded those soldiers?" Knight Sam shouted while hacking.

Zhang Qiang ignored him, and led them to charge wherever there were few enemies, and to kill wherever the soldiers were of low rank.

One goal, never to rush to the place where the enemy gathers together, one goal, to survive until the attacking enemy is repulsed by the defenders who are replenished again.
