The Roland Continent Coalition Arave the commander of Thunder City, the Duke of the Tulip Fae The letter said that the two sides would have their decisive battle below the city walls on the afternoon of the next day
When they saw the letter of challenge, Rody and Sieg looked at each other and started to laugh
Milo also had a strange expression ”If these Roland heathens want to fight, then go ahead Come and attack us Why do they need to write us a declaration of war?”
Rody thought for a while and said, ”Well, let's just fight We have not fought against the Roland arth, first Toht them below the wall”
Sieg wanted to say so God's Whip is our tru, you just watch the battle from above the wall”
The prelude to the war
The afternoon sun was dazzling, and there was a dull sound of intensive dru The coalition armies of Roland, a teae battle formation in the wilderness, below the city wall The infantry stood in a phalanx formation in the middle while the cavalry fore war chariots did not appear
The gate of the Thunder City opened Fifty thousand infantries, wearing strong armors, marched out neatly They held swords and shi+elds in their hands as they formed a phalanx formation below the city wall
The sea breeze was humid and salty The afternoon sun caused the soldiers to sweat Rody and Milo stood in the middle of the formation and coldly looked at their opponents
”Looks like our opponent's commander is also very cautious He sent out sous” Milo whispered as he looked at Rody with the corners of his eyes
Rody did not say anything He looked at the enemy in the distance
A person, as more than two meters tall, appeared fro as Randt and had a huge horn in his mouth He then blew the horn
Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!
”For honor!” One knight pulled out his sword
”For honor!” The others also started to shout into the sky The front row of the Roland aran to move Initially, the soldiers moved slowly forward After that, they started to run faster and faster Finally, those soldiers ere running in front raised the weapons in their hand After a roar, they charged at the soldiers of the Radiant Empire
Sieg, as on the walls, sighed and shook his head ”Downright inferior!”
He ordered the archers on the wall to shoot The archers pulled on the bows and shot their arrows forty-five degrees into the air
When the first batch of the Roland infantries was still rushi+ng forward, they suddenly heard the sound of arrows co from the sky Some of the soldiers had collapsed before they had a chance to raise their shi+elds Even for those ere holding their shi+elds, in the face of the dense arrows, they were also hit by the arrows However, most of the Roland soldiers continued to scream and rushed forward
”Fortify the shi+elds!” Milo raised his voice and shouted
The front row soldiers of the Radiant Eround The sharp shi+elds eround and became a solid shi+eld wall
”Ready…”
”Ready… The back row, push forward”
”Ready…”
The officer shouted loudly as he looked at the ene closer The rapid steps seemed to rumble
Finally, the surging wave of Roland soldiers fiercely rammed into the shi+eld wall
The sound of clashi+ng continued as one army fiercely rammed into the other Soapped opened However, when the gaps were opened, the Roland soldiers who fell into the gaps were desperate to find the numerous sharp swords These soldiers were immediately cut into pieces The first wave of the attack all hit the shi+eld wall and were severely injured Not only did they fail to break through the shi+elds, but they had also obstructed their allies behind them
”Remove the shi+elds!” Milo shouted loudly Kaka! Kaka! The shi+eld wall suddenly split froe shi+elds of the Radiant E as some iron chains were pulled apart, the shi+elds would split into two
After a cry, the Eht directly with the enemy soldiers
The Eone strict professional training These soldiers ability to fight and their ability to fight together as a team of three to five were much more superior than the soldiers from the Roland army
Often, a Roland army's soldier tried to fence off the E into the air by another soldier instead
The ically
Rody swung his Dragon Fang sword A golden fighting energy burst out from the sword Those Roland soldiers who rushed towards hiy immediately broke apart into a mass of broken and bloodied flesh
Milo's swordsant His swordsmanshi+p was like a dance that took a life with every move
The heavy-armored infantries had excellent equipe losses to the Roland army A lot of Roland soldiers had successfully struck their opponents but found that they could not cut through their hard armor They were then cut dohile they were still in a daze
”Your Excellency Tiger, please let us go!” Seeing the er, as beside him The Empire's ar knight said to Tiger in a low voice, ”Let e into them No matter hoerful they are, they are just infantries I aet rid of them!”
Tiger looked indifferently at the knight, beside him, and said, ”No” He then paused and slowly said, ”Have you seen their city gate? Their Lightning God's Whip ate! I already said, today is not the day for the decisive battle! This is just to test theant people in our army, who think that the Radiant Empire is vulnerable, to know clearly what kind of ene!”
He paused for a while and his tone turned ht and whispered, ”Your Excellency, your knights are an indispensable force forGod's Whip! Please be patient!”
Tiger immediately commanded for the second and third wave to rush up They were like a fierce tide that crashed onto the heavy-armor infantries of the Empire They knew that there were only fifty thousand opponent soldiers but they were unable to break through their formation Wave after wave, they attacked However, they were running straight into a wall and their infantries weredeath
”Gordon's2 Infantry Regiiih? The enemy only has fifty thousand soldiers…”
Tiger sneered and said, ”Weren't the Gordon Kingdo crazily in the caht? So today, let them personally test the sharpness of the enemy's blades and the hardness of the eneht, beside him, and said, ”I do not want any disobedience in my barracks I know you want to rush forward but our opponent is supporting their forhts be live targets for the archers? Can you see those boulders on the walls? Do you want your knights to withstand those boulders when they dropped them?'
Rody's armor was already stained red with blood Naturally, all the blood belonged to the eneon, the ordinary weapons of the soldiers could not harm him
A golden light appeared and another head flew off At the saht slashed another Roland soldier into two halves before it disappeared
Rody was so like the retreating tide
Although the heavy-armor infantries were much more powerful than the opponent's army, after numerous waves of attacks they also suffered substantial losses and the soldiers were exhausted Rody looked at Sieg as on the walls He then watched his opponents sloithdraw He coldly said, ”The first assault It looks like they were just testing us”
At night, the soldiers reported that the Roland army's reinforcements have arrived
Rody i and Milo up the city wall Under the uely see a white colored,
Milo looked at the banner on the warshi+ps and frowned He then whispered, ”It's the sorcerers of the Roland army Their sorcerers are here!”
Rody shrugged his shoulders and looked at the Flahtly said, ”Sorcerers? It looks like those people froion will soon be useful”
