Tang Qi Tan

Almost in a blink of an eye, the inheritance knights gathered under the aura of the battle flag, like sharp knives and hammers, quickly swept away most of the enemies in the southwest gatehouse; Continue to advance along the city wall and kill in the direction of other city gates.

Soldiers of the Free Army, holding firecrackers and spears, also roared and swarmed in along the knocked-out cities; inside the city gate full of obstacles, they collided head-on with the mercenaries who came to support them ;In an instant, the piercing of the flesh, the shooting of muskets, and the sound of roaring and screaming were intertwined.

However, these mercenaries, as backup and new force, fought hard several times but could not move. The thin defense line of the free army inside the city wall; , In the blink of an eye, he was defeated and retreated back to the city.

At this time, the assault company and knights led by Paulina had already smashed the guards at the second city gate in the northwest corner; most of them were turned into corpses falling like rain on the city.However, when they rushed to the third city gate, the Saint Xiyong Church in the north of the city;

Finally, he encountered a long-overdue obstacle and interception; it was a group of heavily armored knights with plate armor and helmets rushing out from the nearby Saint Xiyong Church; Holding great swords in both hands, he almost stepped on the surrounding highland buildings and jumped up the tower.

With just a flicker of cold light and a spurt of blood, the soldiers of the Free Army and the defenders of the Dynasty who were still in the melee were involuntarily beheaded into pieces; and a large space of the tower was immediately emptied; Expose Polina, who was surrounded by the crowd, to the direction of the charge.

According to the practice of kingdom wars, in such a narrow encounter battlefield where troops cannot be deployed and the advantages of equipment cannot be used, it is the knights whose average physical fitness is superhuman and who have various means to temporarily stimulate blood power. The best battlefield vertically and horizontally.

Therefore, there has been a proverb that "only knights can deal with knights" since ancient times; however, at the next moment, when these rushing enemy knights touched the invisible halo/shield one after another, a fierce battle suddenly occurred. Variety.They roared almost in succession.

Then, the body visibly swelled and enlarged a circle, and it was also in the gap between the plate armor pins and buckles that were stretched and collapsed; clusters of thick mane or horny skin squeezed out.Hugo, who used to be the oath-keeping knight of the church, even gnashed his teeth on the spot and shouted angrily: "Damn heresy!" "...

Led by Hugo, these inheritance knights almost raised the hand cannon attached to the armor, took off the loaded shotgun from behind, and took off the oversized gunpowder bomb from the waist; it was almost a bombardment Among the enemy knights who were not far away, fireworks exploded.

But before that, he did one more thing to break up for himself; that is to order those abnormal existences who have been hiding in the army to move freely in the outer city and look for opportunities to attack the enemy; instead of using the night and patrols Cover, sneaky prey.

Only curved mortars can pass through, posing a slight threat and deterrence to the guards on the fort.Under the cover of shelling, the attempted attack of the inheritance knights was also repelled by the firearms on the top of the city; although no one was killed, more than 20 knights were seriously injured.

However, after half a day, most of the free army's offensive was once again blocked in front of the inner fortress.After losing control of most of the city walls, Mechelen, Prince of Orleans, gave up without hesitation, the remaining provincial legions still fighting in the outer city.

It was as if within this range, some kind of invisible resistance and interference had been encountered; it became difficult to move forward; however, this was a fatal consequence in a fierce close-quarters battle; in the blink of an eye, these intrusions The distortion knight in the halo quickly fell into a disadvantage.

And Paulina, who was the first to bear the brunt, did not retreat a little because of this, but took a few steps forward firmly holding the battle flag high; she also shrouded more distortion knights in an invisible halo.In an instant, the movements of these deformed knights became sluggish and sluggish.

Then, with a few short and mournful roars; the annex building at a corner of the city hall collapsed, and a huge figure was knocked upside down by billowing dust and smoke; it was a human figure more than five meters tall. Stone monster; only one arm is broken, and the leg is also incomplete.

Under the ebb and flow of battles, those deformed knights were quickly killed and retreated steadily; finally, amidst the howling sound from the Saint Xiyong Church, they left behind a field of horrible corpses, and rushed to withdraw In addition to the influence of the halo, they turned around and jumped off the tower without hesitation.

Therefore, he could only mourn and howl on the ground, rolling forward as if avoiding something.Immediately afterwards, several knights who chased out the ruins of the building and the dust and smoke swung the sledgehammer, chisel and other weapons without hesitation, and the crushed stones smashed on it flew randomly; knocking off its only remaining limbs.

But as long as you enter the range of the invisible influence of this flagpole, you will be affected to varying degrees; you can no longer maintain camouflage and concealment.Even some human beings with polluted bloodlines, or beings with internal distortions, will also be subject to invisible interference and potential suppression.

Therefore, the advancement of the Freedom Army in the urban area was suddenly slowed down due to frequent attacks and ambushes; Lin Lin chased and bit the other fleeing people.

After a while, the stone monster, which had turned into a human stick, with only its head and torso left, became a captive tied to a bullock cart.But when Paulina, who was faintly accumulating indignation and anger, finally arrived in front of the inner castle fortress, she heard the shouts of the defenders.

With the only surviving guards and knights, as well as most of the most loyal Royal Ninth Corps, they retreated into the inner castle built with volcanic ash cement and stones, which was originally a family stronghold.A large amount of ordnance and food are stored here, and there is also a small lake for water supply.

It’s just that this monster as big as a room, covered in tatters and disemboweled, was nailed to the marble outer wall by many spears; and the blood flowing below it almost soaked the outer wall of the city hall, turning the original The sculpture fountain pool also turned into a spouting and rolling crimson.

Therefore, this has also become one of the main reasons why Paulina was able to take the lead and gallop in many battlefields in Africa and the kingdom; constantly creating victories and legends.Of course, her greatest reliance is that adult; especially after the other party has returned from the sky.

Because, in front of this kind of fortress wall made of volcanic ash cement and large rocks, even the cannons transported into the city by the Freedom Army can't do anything for a while.No matter whether it is a short-barreled mountain cannon or a long-barreled field cannon, they can only blast small gray and white pits with debris.

This is another hidden function of the flagpole, which is supported by the will of the holder and produces repellency against aliens.Therefore, when she traveled to various places in Africa, it was not uncommon for her to encounter strange species, spirits, and even some prototypes of ancient legends hidden in the ruins and ruins.

And on the square in front of the city hall, a large number of shriveled corpses seemed to have been sucked dry and emptied of flesh; apart from some citizens, there were even dynasty soldiers wearing different colors and armors; In the distance is a giant bat-like monster covered with tentacles.

The inheritance knights who were not affected but their morale was greatly boosted were chopped down to the ground one by one with blood and flesh flying, beheaded on the spot.Among them, a deformed knight who was suspected to be the leader even threw the long sword in his hand towards Paulina furiously;

Since then, the third city gate accompanying the capital Orleans has also been successfully occupied and opened; the free army soldiers who cheered and cheered outside the city and their morale became more and more boosted were ushered in; Chasing the remnant enemies who fled to the city, seeing that the fall of the city is doomed.

In the end, when Paulina was at the command headquarters, she crossed the main roads and bridges in the main city and went to the inner castle fortress; all she saw were strange corpses of their own, and a larger number of city residents; many of them All of them were physically incomplete, and their expressions were grim and distorted.

The two special attack knight squads, which are usually enough to fight against half a company, completely lost their combat effectiveness.Facing the towering stone fortress and the heavy cast iron city gate; Paulina, who was agitated in her heart, slowly calmed down.Then she knelt down and prayed while leaning on the flagpole in the eyes of all the people.

"Sir!" "At this critical moment, I ask for your guidance." Just like that adult once said, for the sake of a moment of enthusiasm and so-called decency, squandering and spending money on obstacles that you know you can't do. Throwing the lives of soldiers in vain is undoubtedly the most stupid act.

After only half a sound, Paulina in military uniform stood up suddenly; she swung her arms firmly towards the inner castle fortress.Suddenly, there was a faint whistling sound from the sky, and then a long thin white line, which became closer and bigger in a blink of an eye.

It took a few blinks of an eye to make it clear that it was a huge rock, and at the same time, it crashed into the inner castle in front of it; it made a huge noise like the earth shaking and a mountain shaking, and the vibration made people unable to stand still. There is also the sky full of dust and dust rushing towards the face like a wave, drowning everyone.

Then when the dust and smoke gradually dissipated, and the still unstained figure of the girl in military uniform reappeared; the opposite city tower and the huge cast iron gate had disappeared, leaving only a large long and narrow rock standing amidst the cracked and collapsed ruins. But inside the fortress, there was already deathly silence.
