Hundreds of people squatted outside the fence of the manor. The remaining nobles of Coldwind City pulled out all the manpower they could still mobilize, and put all their money into the current battle.
It is very exciting to take down the wall easily. In order to continue to boost morale, more than a dozen military nobles took the lead, raising tall tower shields, holding heavy weapons such as flail, and encouraging momentum to rush to break the defense of the manor’s main fort.
The nobles followed more than one hundred attendants and servants, a few of them were holding swords, and most of them were holding some firewood salaries they picked up, intent on attacking with fire. The second daughter of the Duo Ruixing family blessed some people's'wild power' to enhance strength and courage.
More than a dozen tower shields form a shield wall, arrayed front and rear to enhance defense. When the shield wall poured in from the main entrance of the manor, a thick crossbow bolt was immediately shot from the attic of the main castle thirty or forty meters away.
An aristocratic warrior raised his shield high, his whole body gathered his strength, and his body even lit up with a light to strengthen his defense. Faced with the falling crossbow bolt, the shield he raised broke with a sound of Duang.
Vigorously miracle!
The defensive light seems to play a role, but it is obviously not enough. The crossbow arrow penetrated his abdomen, shattered the spleen and kidney, and nailed him to the ground. The body that was hit was like a broken bag, blood rushing out.
The noble warrior couldn't believe that he was the first to die and wounded. He looked down at the crossbow bolt that penetrated his body and tried to pull it out. However, the crossbow arrow has a thick arm and does not move at all. Then he thought of asking for help...
But other noble personnel holding shields quickly moved away or detoured, continuing to attack forward. Everyone felt that the rate of fire of such a cruel heavy crossbow must be slow, and the range of fire was limited. Now that one has been launched, it is safe to rush up.
This is indeed the case. The heavy metal crossbow in the attic requires the two to wind up, and there is no way to shoot a close target. But the noble warrior who was in the front was quickly shot by more intensive light crossbows.
The few nobles in the front row are all strong people, holding iron tower shields, rushing the fastest. However, as soon as they appeared, the crossbow arrow in the direction of the main castle never stopped. They can feel the continuous impact from the shield arm.
The iron arrow can even penetrate the tower shield, making a'duo' sound, and piercing out from the other side. This kind of strength is really amazing, and the nobles have scolded...
"These untouchables are using a despicable crossbow."
"They must be killed, they will never dare to touch the crossbow again."
"Damn it, where do they have so many crossbows? They are still very powerful."
Holding the heavy tower shield, the noble warriors also moved forward quickly. But it's a little troublesome to withstand the crossbow bolt. At that distance of thirty or forty meters, it seems that you can run over in one breath. But the arrow was extremely heavy, and soon there were crossbow arrows penetrating the tower shield, causing casualties.
The arm of a warrior with a shield was pierced by an arrow, the muscles and tendons of the arm were severed, and blood was dripping. He stopped with a scream, and the tower shield in his hand could only barely support on the ground. When the others moved forward, a gap appeared in the shield wall.
"Shoot in through that gap." The officer of the action team was in the three-story attic, staring at the exposed opportunity at a glance. If it were normal, he would have to ask the messenger to shout, and the opportunity might be missed if it was fleeting, but now he only needs to report the'Holy Light'.
Sophia is like a battlefield radio, quickly and accurately gathering the archers on the first and second floors of the main fort to shoot at the opening exposed by the enemy. Seven or eight crossbow arrows shot in between the breath, the distance was so close, there was no inaccurate shot.
The light crossbow produced by the Forge of Harmony Village is the standard equipment for the guard infantry, and one is equipped. Forged metal crossbow arms can be made light and tough with excellent elasticity.
Soldiers can step on the strings when they are strong enough, or ratchet them when they are weak. The power of this weapon is twice as powerful as ordinary goods made of handmade wood. The iron arrow it fires can penetrate general heavy armor at close range.
If you want to defend it, you must either use arcane defense or magic armor. In short, this is not a gadget that the poor ghosts of the Northland can popularize.
It was just such a gap, and several screams sounded when the crossbow arrow shot in. The shield wall was even more unsustainable, and several noble warriors fell again, and the gap became bigger and bigger.
The noble lords still have tower shields. As long as they are not killed on the spot, they can withstand the retreat temporarily if they are injured. But the attendants and serf soldiers who followed behind were similar to the police, and another wave of crossbows shot over and fell like a sickle.
The person at the front is dead, but the attendants and soldiers at the back are still pushing. But no matter how much he squeezed, he couldn't resist the powerful crossbows that kept shooting out—blood, screams, and howls, the scene became a mess.
An old white-haired nobleman stood outside the wall, shouting for command, and chopped off the heads of several running soldiers in one breath. The round head rolled on the ground, the headless corpse fell and spurted blood, and the soldiers could only turn around to cover the noble master who had not been withdrawn.
But at this time, the heavy metal crossbow in the attic was wound again, aiming at the white-haired old nobleman. The thick crossbow flew in and hit the opponent's chest.
An invisible stand blocked the heavy crossbow's attack, but the powerful force knocked the white-haired old nobleman to the ground. The attendants dragged him to the wall behind the fence, and he touched the broken ancestral amulet on his chest in a daze.
"Where can these untouchables come with such powerful heavy crossbows?" The old nobleman leaned against the wall, panting in horror. Right in front of him, the noble warriors and a large number of attendants who rushed up were retreating. They were full of confidence just now, but this would be a squirrel.
The noble warrior in the front hung one, and five were injured. The casualties are nearly half, and the remaining masters no longer dare to rush with heavy crossbows like this. After retreating, they changed to shoot at each other across the wall.
"What are these idiots doing?" Johnson Dorixin, who was in charge of the organization behind the scenes, was very annoyed in the shadows. "They failed once, and they were going to shoot at a fortress? Do they think they have a lot of time to waste? ?"
As everyone knows, the nobles behind the wall are also complaining. They are obviously many and powerful, and the number is more than ten times that of the untouchables in the main castle. I wanted to rely on more people to suppress those untouchables, and create an opportunity for the attendants to charge the tower shield again.
But the arrows shot out of the fortress are endless, and I don't know who is suppressing whom? Anyway, after shooting, the noble side did not dare to appear on the wall at will.
"How many arrows are there in the untouchables? They are endless?" The white-haired nobleman did not dare to stand out without the talisman. There were four or five dead bodies in front of him, all servants and servants who were shot in the opposite direction.
Normal people have limited carrying capacity and can carry a pot of arrows at most, mostly ranging from ten to twelve. The untouchables who occupy the manor have at most five or six hundred arrows, even if everyone has arrows. But now they have not stopped after more than a dozen rounds.
In the main fort, boxes of crossbow bolts were opened. The crossbow arrow has no tail feathers and is only equipped with iron arrows. This thing does not take up space, and a small box can hold 500 pieces. The fifth action team's heavy-duty carriage easily transported five or six boxes.
Two or three thousand crossbow arrows, enough to shoot for a long time.
The old nobleman outside the fence drew a crossbow from the corpse, looked at the forged iron arrow, and then at the straight and well-proportioned arrow shaft. He shook his head and said in a puzzled way: "Where did these untouchables shoot the crossbow bolt? They shoot money!
Such a sophisticated crossbow shot like splashing water is too extravagant. This is completely different from the untouchables and poor ghosts in the imagination. Who is the noble? Who has more money? "
