More than twenty arrows brought chaos to the Faceless Men's team. They clearly showed a lack of experience in dealing with long-range strikes. The team of the Faceless Men stood very crowded, and the distance between each Faceless Man and Hairless Hyena was not far away. This Arrow Rain's covering strike brought great convenience.
In the Horror Mercenary Corps, not everyone knows how to use bows and arrows, and things like crossbows are so difficult to handle that there are only about twenty archers in Dane's team. Their shooting level is also not satisfactory, much worse than that of Delin.
But even so, their round of shooting was quite effective against those faceless men. There were at least ten faceless men with feathered arrows stuck in their bodies. The most unlucky one was the leader riding on the tall hairless hyena. Counting the arrow that Delin shot into his shoulder, there were at least three or four arrows piercing his body.
A round of arrow rain attacks made these faceless men angry. The leader roared loudly, as if he didn't want to continue boosting morale, he directly commanded his soldiers to attack the crude city gate of Ghost Knife Port. Afterwards, hundreds of faceless men swarmed towards the simple wooden door!
There was only a bang, and the artillery that Dane arranged on the high platform on the side fired! Even though the bullets fired were solid bullets, under such a dense formation of those Faceless Men, this shot still made at least three Faceless Men lose their fighting ability.
Facing the arrows, the Faceless One can still rely on their strong physical fitness, as long as they don't hit the fatal parts, they can continue to fight. But artillery is another matter. The solid projectile fired is accelerated by gunpowder in the barrel, and it will be injured if it rubs against the edge, and it will be killed directly if it hits the torso. What's more, the huge kinetic energy carried by the shell usually doesn't weaken much after hitting the first enemy, and it will continue to move forward after completely crushing the enemy's body.
It's a pity that Dane didn't prepare some shells like flowering shells that can cause damage through the shrapnel stimulated by the explosion. That kind of shell, although not as powerful, has a much larger damage range, and is the best weapon to use against opponents who have no reasonable formation and most of the targets are crowded together.
However, he couldn't care about anything else at this time. The distance of 60 meters disappeared in an instant. It has already rushed to the wooden door.
Dane explained to Delin next to him, let him continue to direct the artillery and archers to continue to attack, and then he walked off the sentry tower.
Under the sentry tower and inside the wooden gate, a whole squadron of mercenaries had already prepared their weapons, nervously waiting for the battle to come.
When they saw Dane's figure appear, the tension on their faces was obviously reduced a lot. It has to be said that in the countless times he fought side by side with Dane, this man has left a deep impression on the hearts of the soldiers in the whole regiment, and he can be said to be the backbone of everyone.
Dane looked around for a week, and didn't need to say anything at all. He just pulled out the long knife behind his back. This action was already more inspiring than a thousand words.
There was a booming sound, and those faceless men were already attacking the wooden door.
In less than a month of construction time, Dane, who only has one or two hundred people, can't build Ghost Knife Port into a strong city. It is already very remarkable to be able to erect a wall of stone and wood structure. He didn't have enough time, manpower, or resources to build a strong city wall, so he could only temporarily replace it with wooden doors.
Such a wooden door is not too strong. Although those faceless men did not have siege equipment, just relying on their huge strength, a few faceless men slammed into the door frantically, it was enough to overwhelm the thin wooden door.
Dane never expected to rely on this wooden door to block the serious troubles in his heart. He knew that the wooden door might not last long under the impact of those faceless men. But he didn't care, during the battle, all the thoughts of being a lord disappeared, and in his head, only the most primitive desire of being a warrior remained: to kill!
With a weak 'squeak', the wooden door blocked the Faceless Men for less than two minutes before it was blasted open. The two wooden boards crashed to the ground, and afterward, an unknown number of faceless men poured into the gap that was only about three or four meters wide.
"Kill!" Dane yelled wildly, and the long knife moved forward, taking the lead in charging!
Dane, who rushed forward, directly chopped off the head of a hairless hyena that was flying towards him, and at the same time cut off the tentacles of a Faceless Man that was attacking him.
Dane's brave performance greatly inspired the fighting spirit of his own mercenary fighters. A whole squadron of mercenaries, following Dane, bravely blocked the breached wooden door, and fell into a brutal melee fight with those faceless men.
In terms of terrain, mercenaries have great advantages. A wooden door with a width of three to four meters can accommodate not many faceless men rushing in at the same time. The first time four or five faceless men or hairless hyenas rush in, they will face countless mercenaries blocking the door. Attack with the blade coming from three directions. Under the attack of the archers, the faceless men tried several times in a row to rush into the ghost knife port through the destroyed wooden gate, but they were still unable to succeed.
The cannon roared, and it showed off its power again! After the cannonballs resolutely knocked over two or three Faceless Men, another big killer in Ghost Knife Port finally rushed up—War Story Osengari!
The Ancient War Tree's action speed is indeed a bit too slow. It was arranged by Dane in advance not far from the wooden door, but until now, it came two or three minutes after the wooden door had been breached. Late.
But even though his movements were slow, when he arrived on the scene, his effect was even stronger than that of a whole squadron of mercenaries.
I saw that War Story's huge body moved forward, stretched out his feet, and several faceless men and hairless hyenas were crushed into meatloaf. Afterwards, the giant hand-like branches carried enormous power, and they were not something that the faceless men could resist. In other words, when Osengari blocked the wooden door of Ghost Knife Port, there was basically no way for those Faceless Ones to break through.
The battle lasted no more than ten minutes, and after twenty or thirty corpses were left behind, the leader of the Faceless Man realized that there was nothing to be done. Under his shout, the army of the Faceless Man decisively moved from the wall of Ghost Knife Port. Withdrew before. This also means that Dane has won the initial victory in the battle.
