The thick city gate was closed heavily, and the undead were completely blocked outside.
The noise was still going on.
The sound of knocking on the door was like a ghost calling for death.
It's just that no one cares. After this long-lasting battle, they all want to rest.
In other words, they have already gotten used to the continuous knocking sound in the past two days and two nights. Except for the crossbowmen who are still on guard, no one will poke their heads out to look at the group below. skeleton.
Even the Swadian light infantry who had just gone through the battle sat calmly and rested.
Occasionally, I laughed and chatted about the means of my heroic struggle just now.
This battle is not tragic.
Perhaps for these light infantry, it was only a little nervous.
Compared with the intensity of the battlefield in Calradia, this battle can only be regarded as a massacre. A group of well-equipped infantry with excellent battlefield skills slaughtered a group of poorly equipped and weak armed militia.
Out of 1,000 light infantry, no one was killed.
That will explain the problem.
And based on the visual estimation of the crossbowmen on the city wall.
The defensive circle formed by these light infantry resisted the attack of tens of thousands of undead troops, and at the same time destroyed nearly 30,000 skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers in the battle for nearly 3 hours!
Look at the layers of bones on the ramp floor.
All kinds of bones are like low walls.
One after another happened to be arranged at the line of defense of those light infantry.
Just looking at the city wall, it is obvious that the terrain of that place is much more than ordinary places.
Even the hordes of skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers stood taller than half of their bodies in that place, as if they were standing on a viewing platform, but they still couldn't see the scenery of the city wall at the top of the cliff.
The cliffs that have appeared are 10 meters high.
The walls of "Drehem" are also 10 meters high.
Although the 20-meter slope is gentler than the city gate on the 10-meter cliff, after the city gate is locked, even climbing up this gentle slope is useless.
Because the towers and arrow towers on both sides of the city gate are enough to launch accurate long-range firepower on the ramp.
Whether it is a bow and arrow, a crossbow, or a spell.
Any enemy target on the ramp is a living target!
However, the current skeletons don't even have the qualifications to be targets. The crossbowmen on the city wall don't bother to continue to consume their own arrows. They just support their bodies with their arms, leaning against the edge of the city wall, laughing and chatting.
Occasionally, they had a happy chat, or had fun betting with each other, and then they took out the arrow and shot it outside.
As for the almost crazy rapid fire like the beginning, it didn't appear at all.
Occupying a geographical advantage, they don't need to be nervous.
"Drehem" castle has all kinds of supplies, including food and water. If they want, they can live here for nearly a year without any external supplies.
It just depends on Kant's meaning whether to really live like this.
And as the supreme lord.
The new overlord of the Nalun Desert.
The absolute ruler of the sentry oasis.
Kant would never live like this, let alone stay here for a year!
The "Drehem" castle has now been besieged by the undead army as a lone army, trapped in the Nalun Desert. Even if Kant controlled the Stone Pass and the "Aaron" city, it is impossible for reinforcements to arrive.
If the Principality of Lion Lions knew about this place, it would wish for Kant and the undead to fight to the death.
The "Aaron" city far away in the Sanwaya Mountains has no conditions for sending troops at all.
Although that is the city of the Rhodoks.
But the current development is still focused on construction, and there are not many people to rescue in terms of military strength. Even if the rescue is launched, the Rhodok troops who can travel across the desert will be helpless in the face of death.
At that time, Kant had personally experienced the power of the death sky.
Only supernatural power can resist it.
Without positive energy, it is an invincible moat for ordinary conventional troops!
Shrouded by the death canopy containing various negative BUFFs, even the top Rhodok sergeants will be sick and gradually become weak, and finally fall to the ground, cut off by the humblest skeleton soldiers!
This is not the case in ordinary circumstances.
Wearing double-layer heavy chain armor with iron leather armor and leather lining, holding a long-handled ax and halberd, a mace at the waist, and a Rhodok sergeant equipped with a heavy broad shield, a centurion who can sweep the skeleton warriors alone is no problem !
This equipment is coupled with a burly and strong body like a rock.
Foot combat can be called invincible!
In the class of level 5 infantry, even level 5 Nord senior fighters who are also good at infantry combat are not their opponents.
Even Nord's strongest Level 6 Nord Royal Guard can compete for a long time!
most critical.
It was still the deep darkness, the unparalleled and evil death sky!
Kant stood on the city wall and stared. Of course, he noticed that the death canopy in front of him almost covered the sky, and it was estimated to be so thick that it covered most of the Nalun Desert.
Or it wasn't like that, just shrouded the sentry oasis.
But Kant, who didn't rush out of this darkness, didn't even know how big this darkness was!
"My lord."
Bandak walked up to the city wall.
Seeing Kant staring at the darkness of the outside world, he said, "We can go out and have a look, because these inferior skeletons can't stop us at all."
What he was talking about was naturally a force armed with extraordinary power.
Such as the Royal Knights of the Kingdom of Swadia.
For example, the Lion Knights of the Kingdom of Saarion.
And those mages of the Ernfas Empire!
If all these forces are gathered, there will be absolutely no problem rushing out of the death sky surrounded by these skeletons, after all, these are super elites!
What's more, Kant also has the help of Bandak, the apostle of the underworld.
This is why Bundak dared to directly mention this suggestion to Kant.
Mere skeletons.
Not enough to keep them all!
"etc."
Kant frowned slightly.
He did not agree with Bandak's suggestion. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "Let these light infantry rest. We will arrange for them to continue fighting tomorrow, and you will continue to lead the team."
"This... I understand." Bandak nodded.
"Hmm." Kant let out a sigh of relief.
It doesn't feel good to be surrounded.
Especially surrounded by such a group of undead with weird and terrifying shapes, it made the mood extremely depressing.
But Kant was still waiting.
Wait for the transformation of these 1,000 Swadian light infantry.
This battle was not too fierce, but there were a lot of skeleton warriors killed, which could basically upgrade nearly half of the light infantry. If there were two more battles, it is estimated that there would be no problem for all the light infantry to complete the upgrade.
And just outside the castle, hundreds of thousands of skeleton warriors were crowded there trying to rush in.
Kant wants to catch them all!
Assemble all troops.
According to the current 1300 heavy cavalry as the backbone of the main force, sweep these undead who occupy the sentry oasis!
As Kant's order was carried out by Bundak, soon, the entire "Drehem" castle started to move again, and many light infantrymen received timely medical treatment and rest, and then continued to fight fiercely in the next two days .
Of course, it is not so much tragic as it is a painful massacre.
Pieces of skeleton warriors were killed.
There were white bones and bones all over the place.
The decayed and tattered ancient weapons and ancient armor have become fragments, scattered everywhere.
On the outside of the entire ramp, a bone layer close to 3 meters high has been piled up, which is made up of bones, so that the light infantry stepped on it, making crunching sounds.
In just these two days, the skeleton warriors in the sentry oasis were almost massacred.
Nearly 100,000 skeletons fell at the two southeast city gates.
At present, the 1,000 light infantrymen, who were exhausted but not injured, continued to squat in their own positions in Urn City, panting from exhaustion, and could no longer hold the Germanic swords in their hands.
They are really too tired, such cruel and high-frequency fighting makes their bodies unbearable.
The arm was extremely sore.
The spirit has been quite sluggish.
Moreover, the linen jacket on his body was torn like a beggar's clothes.
The chain mail inside was damaged, and some even covered the wounds that were still bleeding, with a bit of fear in their eyes, obviously morale had reached its limit.
"As expected of an undead."
Kant was still standing on top of the city wall.
He looked at the urn city crumbling down here and there, and there was not much discipline in the light infantry unit. There was deep fear in his eyes, and he couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "It's worthy of death..."
"This is the advantage of the undead." Bandak nodded.
Days of fierce fighting is consumption.
Although the undead had killed a lot of skeletons.
However, during the fierce battle, the physical strength, morale, and belief of the light infantry were exhausted to the limit.
It is estimated that if Kant is sending these 1,000 light infantry into battle, there will definitely be more serious casualties this time because of the physical strength he spent before and the painful wounds on his body.
It even appeared to the extent that the formation was unstable and the troops collapsed due to tragic casualties.
They are all real people.
Far from the painless NPC soldiers in the game system.
He has his own emotions, his own thoughts, his own fears, his own physical limitations and spiritual limits.
They can launch a Jedi counterattack against the enemy with high morale, or they can be low-spirited. With an absolute numerical advantage, they can be defeated by a small but extremely elite enemy army.
"However, I have the advantage brought by my background."
The corners of Kant's mouth curled up slightly.
The war of attrition of the undead may be enough to drag down any enemy.
But for him, the supreme lord who has the entire world of riding and hacking as his background, playing a war of attrition with him is really too ridiculous and impossible!
Thought instant communication system, dialog boxes have floated on Kant's retina.
At the same time, his thinking has also given instructions to the system.
"All upgrades..."
"Swadian heavy cavalry!"
His patience is over.
