The Sun King's Evidence

The next morning, the soldiers arrived at Aarhus Bridge.

This is a stone bridge about thirty meters long. Due to Albert's emphasis on trade and trade routes, there is a guard post here.

The soldiers immediately began to place a large amount of gunpowder on the bridge under the guidance of the officers, while Nicklay and Lane asked the sentry about the situation of the battle: "How is the battle at Oak Pass!"

Before he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves could be heard in the distance, and a group of about seventy human troops rushed towards the Aarhus Bridge. Almost all of them were injured: "Mr. Nikolai! We can't hold it anymore. Auk Pass is about to be lost!"

"What?!" Everyone was shocked and quickly asked what happened.

"The barbarians attacked again and again regardless of casualties. We resisted desperately, but there were too many barbarians!" The leading soldier wiped the sweat from his face: "We can only choose to retreat, there are too many enemies. .”

"How long will it take for the barbarians to get here?" Ryan stepped forward and asked.

"We used boulders and iron to seal the gate. The barbarians only had simple siege weapons... The gate should be able to hold on for another twenty minutes." If Ryan, the leader, did not admit his mistake, he was the guard chief of Oak Pass.

"Very good! Thank you for your hard work. You can retreat first and leave this place to us!" Nikolai waved his hand and motioned for them to retreat quickly: "Go back and have a good rest. We will resist Berig and his bear tribe here! "

"Thank you, sir!" The officer guarding the pass saluted the two knights, and then led the seventy remaining soldiers to retreat.

The war situation was urgent, and the soldiers accelerated the deployment of explosives. A heavy atmosphere was spreading among the soldiers. When dark patches of barbarians appeared on the distant horizon, Mjordenhaven's army finally deployed explosives.

"Formation! Formation! Prepare to meet the enemy!!!" Nikolai commanded the soldiers and set up defenses at the end of the bridge. The shield and halberdier soldiers lined up in two rows, followed by the most elite swordsmen.

These great swordsmen wear breastplates, tights, and round helmets. They are the most elite troops in Mjordenhaven. In fact, the main force of the empire's army is also composed of these two-handed great swordsmen and knights of the Knights.

The two-handed sword has a huge damage range and lethality. When faced with armies such as barbarians, greenskins and undead armies with little armor, the two-handed sword is extremely effective. Especially the two-handed sword can restrain long-handled weapons. Lacking sophisticated equipment and using a large number of spears and spears, the army was extremely lethal.

Therefore, these great swordsmen are the real support in this battle.

Gradually, in the darkness, the barbarians appeared.

The barbarian bearman tribe from the northern wasteland appeared in the distance on the horizon.

"coming."

Most of the barbarians wore the simplest fur coats, holding battle axes and bucklers, and some held spears. Their hair was shaved clean, leaving only a bunch in the middle of the head.

It's a predator!

Predators are born warriors. They were born in the most difficult and arduous conditions in the northern wasteland and grew up under the cruel laws of the jungle, because the weak have already died in the survival of the fittest.

The barbarians never farm and have no time to harvest crops. The tools they use for production are axes, swords and shields. What do they want? There are plenty of southerners! Go grab it! Go and grab it!

Everything we desire can be obtained from the lowly southern humans!

Thousands of barbarians marched towards the Aarhus Bridge. The barbarian team was disorganized and dressed in rags, but the Nord army, which was neatly dressed and better equipped with weapons and equipment, was very nervous.

sharp contrast.

The leader of the barbarians, Birig, walked out in front of everyone's eyes. He was a tall and strong man. His strong muscles were wrapped in a leather armor that exuded a blood-red atmosphere. He had large braids. A brown beard hung down from his head, but the ends of the beard and the knots of the braid were covered with various skulls, making people shudder.

"Another massacre, another victory, too weak, the southerners make me feel bored." Birig laughed, then he raised his tomahawk and signaled his tribe to stop: "Now, another group of stupid people The southerners are blocking our way, tell me my warriors, what should we do?"

"Kill them all! Kill them all! Kill them all!!!" All the barbarians roared loudly, each of their faces filled with bloodlust and fanaticism.

"Then... listen to my order... I'll count to three and we'll launch an attack!" Birig shouted nonchalantly. He really didn't take the soldiers on the opposite side seriously.

"Get ready to fight! Get ready to fight! Nord warriors! Hold on to your spears and put up your shields. Behind you is your home! Show your courage!" Ryan walked through the array of soldiers holding his warhammer. , said angrily: "The survivors die! Live to the dead! Today I will fight side by side with you! Let us move from one victory to the next together! Long live Nord!"

"Long live Nord!" The soldiers guarded the bridge. The halberd and shield soldiers at the front were deployed at the head of the bridge. Behind the battle formation were the great swordsmen, and the elite crossbowmen were deployed in the bunkers behind the bridge. They His finger tightened on the trigger, ready to shoot at the barbarians at any time.

"This time some brave bastards came here." Birig saw that the troops on the opposite side were neatly organized and closely arrayed, so he put down his contempt, although he didn't quite understand why there were such elite guards on this bridge. Army, but what does it matter?

The Blood God will love this show.

"Forward! Forward!!!" The barbarian soldiers began to charge towards the Nord army at the bridge.

The ones at the forefront were the lowest-level soldiers among the barbarians - the barbarian marauders.

"Shoot!" Nikolai, the walnut knight who was in the bunker behind the bridge, first took out the big bow on his back, and then pulled out the feather arrow from the quiver behind him. The walnut knight took a deep breath and opened the big bow.

"Whoops!" The first barbarian marauder who rushed at the front was hit in the face by an arrow. He screamed and fell directly.

The crossbowmen followed Nikolai and started shooting one after another. In the blink of an eye, several barbarian plunderers at the front were hit by arrows and died. However, there were thousands of barbarians, and the dark army would not disperse just because a few people fell. , the fall of the first few people further aroused the ferocity of the barbarians, everyone rushed to squeeze into the battle line, turning a blind eye to the deaths of their companions.

However, the bridge was narrow and the number of barbarian soldiers who could rush onto the bridge was limited. The halberdiers used the simplest thrust to take away the lives of the barbarian plunderers one after another.

More barbarian armies are all crowded together and cannot rush to the bridge at all. When people are crowded, the barbarians cannot use their personal force, which greatly limits their combat effectiveness. In a row, a simple thrust from the Nord's Halberdiers brought them pain and death.

Some barbarian raiders tried to wade across the ice of the Ofre River, but they soon discovered that they were wrong... The ice of the Ofre River was thinner than paper, and it broke when touched. After unfortunately falling into the water and becoming a target for the crossbowmen, no barbarian soldiers dared to go into the water again.

"Come on!" Ryan held the hammer in both hands and knocked away three barbarian soldiers with one blow. The White Wolf Knight's war hammer opened and closed. He first smashed the head of a barbarian marauder twice, and then used The barbarian marauders who were forced to rush onto the bridge by one man were defeated one after another.

"Fight!" Ike and Lops also followed Ryan. Looking at these barbarians, Ike's eyes were blood red. He needed glory so much to wash away his shame. The wandering knight did not even use a shield. , holding his sword in both hands, he bravely charged into the enemy's formation.

Ike first faced a barbarian with a mohawk and a large set of teeth on his body. He swung his sword unceremoniously. The long sword was blocked by the wooden round shield and then headed towards the barbarian's head. He chopped it upward, and when the battle ax approached Ike's face, half of the barbarian's head fell to the ground.

Lopus, on the other hand, wanted to play steadily. He carefully hid behind his shield and relied on the hard kite shield to block the oncoming battle axe, and then pierced another barbarian with his halberd.

The first wave of barbarians who rushed to the bridge dropped more than fifty corpses, but they failed to make the Nord army's front line take a step back.

"Give me the order! Let the warriors retreat!" Birig immediately realized that this was not going to work, so he immediately ordered all the barbarian marauders to retreat. From the dark barbarian army, many people wearing black furs walked out. Barbarian warriors armed with large numbers of javelins and axes.

Seeing these barbarian soldiers coming out of the team, Ryan felt bad. He immediately retreated and then shouted to the soldiers: "Raise your shield! Raise your shield! Find cover!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the roaring flying axes and javelins drowned out Ryan's voice. The White Wolf Knight stood on the spot, and any flying weapons were easily knocked away by him.

On the other side of the river, a large number of javelins and throwing axes attacked Nord's military formation. Many of the crossbowmen were hit by javelins and throwing axes before they could squat down, and fell immediately. On the bridge, the halberdiers stood up The shields were used for defense, and the two-handed swordsmen, Ike and others also hid in the shield formation. Even so, several halberd soldiers died in the attack, and many shields were deformed by the huge impact.

"Counterattack!" After dodging several attacks, Nikolai immediately signaled the crossbowmen to counterattack. He bent his bow and nocked an arrow. Under his command, the crossbowmen pulled the trigger at the barbarian army on the other side of the river. They already lacked The armored barbarian harpooneers and axe-throwers fell in droves.

The battle situation fell into a stalemate. The barbarians did not retreat with the Nord troops who were guarding the bridge. The Nord troops could not leave the line to fight the barbarians in hand-to-hand combat where they were weak.

After several rounds of attack and defense, the barbarians lost more than 200 corpses, and the Nord army also lost more than 50 people.

"Kuluo Lin? Where are my champions?" Birig had no idea of ​​joining the battle. The barbarian leader grinned and watched his tribe soldiers fall in pieces. The death of the scum made him even more happy. His tribe had no need for weaklings.

However, Birig also understood deeply that his mission was to destroy Mjordenhaven, and in order to please the God of Darkness, he had to speed up.

"Dong~dong~dong~" heavy footsteps sounded.

Three barbarians two meters tall, wearing huge horned helmets, covered with a set of solid Chaos armor, and holding giant maces emerged from the army: "Chief!"

"Kill them! Move forward!!!"

So these giant barbarian warriors held giant maces and rushed towards the Nord army formation at the bridge head.

Be the barbarian champion warrior! Ryan gritted his teeth. It is said that every such barbarian champion warrior has been baptized by the God of Darkness. They will fight eternally under the gaze of the God of Darkness until they die or their power is recognized.

Every champion warrior is at least an elite level peak powerhouse!

The huge figure and the red light emanating from the horned helmet made the soldiers shudder.

"Shoot! Attack those big men!! Shoot their shoulders! Abdomen! And the places where the armor is sandwiched!" Nikolai signaled the crossbowmen to divert their attention, and the soldiers immediately turned around under his order.

"Ding~ding~" The bodies of the champion warriors were gradually filled with dense arrows.

It was no use, the champion warriors never paused in their actions. Instead, their pace gradually accelerated, and they rushed towards the dense shield formation of the Nord army one by one.

"Meet the enemy!" Ryan took the lead and faced a champion warrior first. The clash of war hammers and maces made a deafening sharp sound. The barbarian champion warrior took two steps back, but launched towards Ryan again without emotion. attack.

The other two champion warriors kept moving and charged directly towards the halberd formation at the head of the bridge. Facing the solid shield wall, the barbarian champion named Kurolin rushed to the halberd formation, and then launched a heavy giant The mace swept down...

The solid shield formation is broken! Amidst the screams of the Nord soldiers and the sound of falling into the water, the solid shield formation was broken by the barbarian champions!

"Forward!!!" Birig raised his big ax: "Warriors of the Bear Tribe! March forward!!!"

The barbarian raiders rushed into Nord's army like a tide.

"Great swordsmen! It's time to fight!" Ike also raised his long sword. The great swordsmen followed the wandering knight and launched a countercharge towards the oncoming barbarian army. The great swordsmen As soon as he entered the battlefield, he stabilized the situation and continued to harvest the enemy's lives with his two-handed sword.

The brutal hand-to-hand combat began. One second, Nord's great swordsman chopped off the head of the barbarian predator. The next second, he was struck from behind by another barbarian and fell down wailing.

The great swordsmen were more skilled in fighting than the barbarian marauders, but the number of barbarian soldiers was several times theirs. After a fierce battle of just ten minutes, Nord's army began to be beaten back by the barbarians.

Ryan hit the Barbarian Champion on the wrist with all his strength. The Barbarian Champion dropped his weapon while screaming. He tried to pick up the weapon, but Ryan did not give him this chance. The White Wolf Knight's warhammer was surrounded by a whirlwind, and its swing speed was far faster than that of ordinary people. , he first smashed the barbarian champion's right hand with a hammer, leaving him wide open, and then hit his head with a hammer. The horn helmet made a shattering sound. The barbarian champion took two steps back and fell to the ground.

Ryan immediately hit him on the head and completed the kill.

"Oh~ There are such humans in Nord?" Birig saw that his champion was dead, and there was no expression of heartache on his face. He took his battle axe, and when he noticed the decoration and decoration of the young knight, The man with black hair and blue eyes laughed wildly: "Ha! It's him! It's indeed him! I'm going to take off his head! Dedicate it to the greatest and most noble Blood Temple!"

Ryan took off the head of the barbarian champion, turned around and found that Nord's army was already crumbling under the attack of the barbarians, so the White Wolf Knight no longer thought about it. He retreated while fighting, and after helping several great swordsmen escape from the battlefield, he issued Got the military order.

"Retreat! Retreat! The Aarhus Bridge can't be defended! Let's retreat into Mjordenhaven!"

"retreat!"
