Arrows were falling, and the nomadic cavalry mixed in with the civilians raised their small bucklers and continued to move forward despite the rain of arrows. WWw!QuAnBen-XIaoShuo!com
The civilians had no defense at all. They screamed and were hit by arrows, and fell to the ground covered in blood. And these nomadic cavalry grabbed the civilians who fell to the ground and held their bodies in front of them to resist the arrows, while running towards the city wall with all their strength.
When approaching the city wall, these nomadic cavalry threw the corpses in their hands on the ground, and a large number of corpses quickly piled up into a hill.
Arthur jumped off Diogo's body and landed lightly on the city wall. He looked at the nomadic cavalry running around outside the city, throwing civilian corpses at the base of the city wall, and gave an order with disapproval: "What are the magicians doing? Kill them."
Hundreds of fire magicians raised their scepters at the same time, and dense fireballs, long fire dragons, and large swaths of bolide poured down the city wall like a flood. The nomadic cavalry, who were galloping on their horses and collecting the bodies of civilians who were shot and killed, were caught off guard. Thousands of people were blown to pieces in the flames on the spot.
Hundreds of nomadic cavalry were set on fire by the fire dragon, and they howled hoarsely. The fire burned their skin, making their bodies creak, and a pungent burnt fire emitted from the air. Smelling like a paste, these unlucky guys were soon burned to ashes along with their mounts.
The priests of the temple in the distance chanted a spell again, and khaki haloes fell on the attacking cavalry. The wind and sand rolled, and the bodies of these nomadic cavalry and their mounts simultaneously turned out a thick layer of wind and sand. The shields rotated rapidly around their bodies, making harsh wind whistles from time to time.
The fireball fell next to these cavalry, and as long as it did not hit their bodies directly, the overflowing fire and shock waves could no longer kill them. These nomadic cavalry shouted triumphantly, collecting all the corpses on the battlefield and throwing them towards the city wall, then turned their mounts and retreated in unison.
Withdrew less than a hundred meters away. Tens of thousands of nomadic cavalry, shrouded in a shield of wind and sand, formed a neat line, running back and forth in front of this section of the city wall like a giant python. They held powerful riding bows and kept throwing poisoned arrows onto the city wall.
Arrows rained down from the city walls, and these nomadic cavalry relied on the impact of their mounts. Their arrows hit the city wall equally powerfully. The archers of the Dragon Horn Legion were caught off guard and were shot over a large area on the spot. As soon as the arrow penetrated the body, the area around the wound quickly festered and turned black, and a strong rotten smell quickly spread out.
The soldiers of the Dragon Horn Legion have been stationed on the eastern border of the Caesar Empire. They are only used to deter the large and small countries in the Eastern Plains. These small countries do not pose any threat to the Caesar Empire, so the number of soldiers of the Dragon Horn Legion is very large. . But their personal combat effectiveness is not comparable to the real elite legions of Caesar's Empire.
In particular, they basically didn't get many combat opportunities on the eastern border, and their combat experience was also very scarce.
What's even worse is that they have never fought against nomadic people. They never dreamed that the riding and shooting of these nomadic cavalry would be so sharp. Tens of thousands of nomadic cavalry were running wildly and shooting at the same time. The arrows that were shot like locusts were like a nightmare, and they were constantly harvesting the lives of the soldiers.
Unlike the long bows and large arrows used by the soldiers of the Dragon Horn Legion, the bows and arrows used by the nomadic cavalry are extremely short. In particular, their arrows are very hard and thin, less than two feet long. Such arrows fly very fast, and they arrive in front of them in a flash of light and shadow. The soldiers of the Dragon Horn Legion basically had no chance to dodge. …,
