As the western sky darkens, the last ray of sunlight disappears behind the mountains on the horizon. The night reigns over the land, and the sky is like a black battle flag hanging. The stars are the embellishment of the flag, and the crescent is the emblem. Tonight the earth is bleak and murderous.
Longqiang Town was silent, and the elderly, children and women had been arranged to hide in the warehouse behind the town. Men gathered behind the town walls with swords and iron bars, even if they were not spear-throwers. Dragon Gun Town lacked everything, except for weapons and equipment. Among them are blacksmiths with strong arms, and what they hold is not a sword, but a hammer for blacksmithing. There is no one in the town, especially the houses at the entrance of the town. With the mobilization of Allen and the mayor, the town is fully prepared for fighting.
There was no wind on the wall, and Palo and Hulk squeezed into the small passage on the town wall, their faces flushed by the light from the brazier next to them. Braziers like this line the entire town wall, illuminating the fields outside the town. Looking around, on the field outside the town, there is a pile of hay here, and there are four or five dry logs there, arranged randomly, like a urchin's game.
Outside the town wall, the Mountain King warriors stood holding their shields. Under the firelight, the bodies of these tower-like strong warriors shone with oil. They were very quiet, but their aura was boiling like magma under a volcano, waiting for the moment of eruption. In front of them, strong men headed by Allen lined up left and right. In front of them were ten steel front warriors headed by Jertais. After these steel warriors left the ground, Allen put a hooded cloak on them to cover them up a bit. Since the cloak covers most of the body, they look like mysterious warriors hidden in the cloak.
The Inch Fire Shooter and the Gao Cang Thrower stood on the town wall together. The Inch Fire Shooter had already set up his fire rifle, and there were not many bullets left in the rifle. Now all the magazines have been shared and distributed to each shooter. hand. The Gaocang gunmen each had seven or eight iron spears and a row of wooden spears beside them. Cloth strips were wrapped around the wooden guns. In front of them there are oil tanks, so the air smells of fire oil.
"Look at those big guys..." Tucker bumped Palo next to him with his elbow, and his bearded man grinned at the steel front warrior's back: "I've never seen such a strong warrior."
Pai Luo deeply agrees with this point. The steel front warriors just look oppressive, especially these warriors are silent, which is even more inhuman. Fortunately, these fighters are on the side of Longlance Town. If it was the opposite, Palo felt that the three-meter guard wall in the town was probably just a matter of charging for these soldiers.
Then there were strange screams and long howls in the darkness.
Ghostly shadows!
"Here we come." Allen said loudly: "Don't panic, cavemen are not warriors, they are more like beasts, but there are a little more of these beasts. I will fight with you, and I swear I won't unless we all lie down." Let those beasts hurt your family. Yes, think of your family, your wives and children. They need protection, you are not fighters, but..."
He paused and shouted: "War is a man's bounden duty. Now is the time for us to fulfill our responsibilities. We fight to defend our homeland!"
Men's roars sounded from behind the wall. They held up their swords and hammers, their eyes were red. The Gaocang people were originally stubborn and staunch, and now their morale is even higher under the encouragement of Allen. This tribe has never lacked courage, otherwise they would not have dared to confront the empire back then.
Palo
He Hulk also yelled, and after the yelling, the bearded man said, "Now I like this grown-up a little bit."
"He's definitely different," Palo agreed.
Then a wooden arrow shot from the darkness, but the arrow had no power at all when it reached the wall. Pai Luo fended off the wooden arrow with a single iron spear in his hand, and then saw figures appearing out of the town out of the fire. The slender cavemen galloped across the ground like beasts, howling, even though their eyes were blurred by the fire, it didn't hinder their desire for blood and killing. This impulse urges them forward like moths to a fire.
From time to time a caveman jumped up and threw a stone, or pulled a crude homemade bowstring. The power of these things is not enough, but the quantity is better than that, and immediately there is a loud sound of breaking through the night sky of the town. The stone-throwing arrows were easily blocked by the steel front warriors, while the mountain king warriors raised their shields, and more fell on the guard wall. The gunners and shooters on the wall easily dodged the attack as long as they bent down and got down.
"Don't be nervous, listen to my orders." Allen looked forward calmly, and now the cavemen running at the front were clearly visible, and Allen could see their malicious eyes and even the scars on their bodies. wrinkled.
These cavemen acting as the vanguard quickly rushed under the town wall. Lucy, who was also on the guard wall, stretched out her finger, and the pattern of the rose ring flickered. The steel front warriors who had been silent for a long time suddenly lit up two points of light in their helmets. Headed by Jertais, ten steel front warriors took a sharp step forward, directly hitting the caveman who was rushing, and knocked them down violently. Go back and overwhelm a row of the same kind. Then the sword was raised and slashed down, and a row of blood spewed out from the field in front of the town!
"It's now! Shooter, ignite and diffuse freely!" Allen yelled.
Pai Luo and the others yelled in response, picked up a wooden gun and dipped it into the oil tank, then crossed the brazier to ignite the fire, and then threw it out of the town with all their strength. The musket pierced through the air, drawing flame tails in the night and scattered on the field outside the town, igniting the dry grass and dead wood, and immediately the town was full of flames. The cavemen screamed, especially those right next to the fire, blinded by the sudden flash of flames, and immediately became a mess.
"attack!"
Flaming fires not only confuse the troggs, but divide them as well. Taking advantage of this time, the gun throwers and inch fire shooters on the wall seized the opportunity to attack, throwing burning wooden guns one after another, continuing to increase the fire on the ground and igniting more vegetation. The fire line of the fire rifle quickly harvested the lives of the cavemen, and every time the line of fire swept across, rows of cavemen would fall down.
At this time, Allen and the soldiers in front of the guard wall remained motionless. He knew very well that the battle had only just begun. Just when the cavemen by the outer wall of the town were almost dead, a short and shrill whistle sounded from ahead. Allen looked through the firelight and saw more cavemen coming from the darkness. The first row of cavemen screamed wildly and rushed into the battlefield, then scattered away. Three or several people jumped at a fire at the same time, just when they were pressed down, another group of cavemen jumped up from behind, using their own bodies to press them down. Extinguish the flames!
Watching the fires go out one after another on the field, Allen knew that the hard battle was about to begin.
A caveman jumped on a rock and pointed in the direction of Longlance Town, screaming continuously. It is painted with brightly colored totems, and there are even a few necklaces made of Tallinn gemstones around its neck. It is obvious that it has a high status among cavemen. it is directing
With the attack of the same kind, suddenly there was a scream in the night sky. Amidst the screams that seemed to come from hell devils, the head of the caveman leader suddenly exploded, and the headless corpse slowly fell down.
On the clock tower of the small town, Adele put down her screams, looked at the old man covering her ears not far away and frowned, "Why don't you go down?"
The old man picked out his ears, swung the bell hammer and roared, "I am also a man...although I am old."
The girl could only shrug her shoulders: "Whatever you want." Then she began to search for other targets worthy of sniping.
The battle is in full swing.
The Gaocang shooters and inch-fire shooters on the guard wall concentrated their firepower at a distance of 100 meters from the city wall. The cavemen who charged first had to go through the test of this firepower net. Usually, seven or eight cavemen out of ten were killed. The bullets flew away, or they were stabbed to death by a wooden gun. Only the lucky guys can rush through this firepower net, and then they will be greeted by the ferocious heavy swords and broad axes of the steel front warriors.
The steel front warriors distanced themselves, and swung the heavy knives or giant axes in their hands, and the space within three meters of them became a dead zone. The place where the samurai was located was splattered with blood and flesh, culling fish that slipped through the net. As the number of cavemen increased, more and more lucky ones crossed the firepower net. The mountain king warriors and infantry behind Allen began to advance. They bypassed the steel front warriors and met the cavemen on the left and right flanks.
The Mountain King warrior raised his shields aloft, using them to block the troglodyte's charge. Then the shield pushes them away, and the infantry will take advantage of the opportunity to poke their muskets from behind the shield and shoot the troglodyte in the head or chest. This kind of cooperation is high-speed and efficient, and the speed of harvesting cavemen is slower than that of steel front warriors.
Paluo shot another wooden gun, turned around and leaned on the wall and shouted to the crowd below: "What are you waiting for, don't forget that this is our homeland. Do we need others to protect us? Men of the Gaocang tribe, kill!"
"kill!"
The town gate opened, and the men of the Gaocang tribe rushed out wielding swords, sticks and hammers. They scattered to every corner of the defense line, assisting Alan's warriors to resist the caveman's attack.
But as the dark blade said, there are countless cavemen. They rushed forward one after another, and the pressure on the defense line increased.
With his left hand and right knife, Regis slightly lowered his center of gravity and looked at Allen: "What are we waiting for?"
"Wait a little longer, our real enemy is not cavemen." Allen gritted his teeth: "Cavemen will never leave Tallinn Aisha, where they have their favorite Tallinn gems. But they are here now, believe me brother, They were driven out."
Regis was startled: "Ice Wind?"
"Who else but it?"
Fares tightened his grip on the black ice: "But if this goes on, they won't be able to stop it for long."
Under the flood of cave dwellers, even if the warriors were brave and fearless, even if the men of the Gaocang tribe were high-spirited, they still couldn't offset the fact that there were too many cave dwellers. The line of defense is slowly retreating, even if every step back, a row of caveman corpses will lie down.
"I know." Allen nodded: "If the ice wind appears later, it will be up to you, and I will try to resume participating in the battle as soon as possible."
"What do you want?" Laura asked nervously.
"It's nothing, it's just forcing the ice wind out." Allen suddenly issued a strange order to the wall: "Stop shooting and let them come over."
