A snow giant had just smashed several human soldiers away with a stone ax in his hand. Before he could celebrate, he was unexpectedly hit on the knee with a hammer. His knee bent and he fell.
"Well done Captain Matt!"
When the surrounding human soldiers saw the snow giant falling to the ground, they suddenly emerged from the iron horse formation and prepared to cause greater damage to the fallen snow giant.
"boom!"
"careful!"
"ah!"
However, even the fallen snow giant was extremely threatening. With a wave of his hand, he knocked down a group of human soldiers who were about to take advantage.
However, after summarizing the previous two battles, the human side also summarized the experience of fighting against the snow giant. There was someone in the team carrying an oil barrel. Before being knocked away by the snow giant, the dragon soldier poured oil on the snow giant.
Half body.
The following Dragon Army soldiers also decisively threw their torches at the Snow Giant.
"ah!"
The flames burned along the Snow Giant's arms, and the Snow Giant who was still showing off his power just now let out a miserable cry. Burning the Snow Giant was no less than the cruelest torture. The Snow Giant began to roll on the ground in pain, violently.
After hitting the iron horse, he was scratched all over by sharp spikes without stopping. Obviously, the pain of being pricked by sharp spikes was nothing compared to the pain of being burned by flames.
At this time, the surrounding Dragon Army soldiers did not dare to step forward, watching the opponent rolling hysterically on the spot.
It wasn't until the opponent had exhausted some of his energy and the struggle was reduced that a man who looked like a junior officer of the Dragon Army stepped forward and accurately chopped the snow giant's neck with a long knife attached to his fighting spirit. Even though there was
A snow giant with the strength of a great knight could not resist the long sword with fighting spirit just by relying on his body. With one blow, the long sword cut off the snow giant's neck. Only
"Oh! Captain Matt is mighty."
Seeing the snow giant being killed by his own knights, the surrounding Dragon Army soldiers cheered.
Matt put away his sword and retreated with a calm face. There were many snow giants around him. He had just stepped into the knight level. If he faced any snow giant alone, he would be no match.
This centurion captain named Matt was the first squad leader to serve in the Flying Bear Army. When the Dragon Army recruited officers to quickly form an army, Matt was transferred to the Dragon Army. He basically did not miss any subsequent battles, large and small.
With a little talent of his own and the rich resources of the Hunter family, he managed to reach the knight level in less than a year. Although his family was well off and his body was in good shape,
But what is more important are the two unreasonable resources of training camp and Knight Blessing Potion.
Matt's luck has always been good. He has made contributions in every battle and has not suffered any serious injuries. When he served as the squad leader in the Dragon Army, he soon got an opportunity to go to the training camp for training.
After coming out of the training camp, Matt has been completely transformed. Originally only an elite, Matt successfully broke through to the level of a quasi-cavalier in the training camp. He just practiced the steel breathing method he just exchanged to a deep level, and his strength was directly improved to a quasi-cavalier.
mid-range level,
In the subsequent battles, Matt still fought first. After accumulating enough merits, he exchanged for the Qi-Entraining Technique commonly used in the army. He embarked on the path of knight training. I don't know if it was because of Matt's talent or because of Miracle City.
It has a certain bonus effect on the practice of the Qi Art. Matt practiced the Qi Art very smoothly. After accumulating enough merits in the subsequent battles, he actually exchanged it for a knight's blessing potion and successfully became a junior knight.
.
Of course, Matt is actually a bit of a knight in terms of strength. After all, he has not received knight training since he was a child. At most, he only has better nutrition. His physical foundation is stronger than that of ordinary civilian soldiers, but he is completely incomparable to the aristocratic children who have been trained since childhood. Breaking through to become a knight
After the first level, he became the weakest level among the knights. From breathing techniques to qi-entraining techniques, he used the most common ones.
Of course, this ordinary technique is not without any advantages. At least the Steel Breathing Technique and the Universal Qi-Entraining Technique have low training thresholds and are relatively easy to master quickly. This is the most important advantage for Matt who is eager to pursue strength.
He didn't have time to slowly lay the foundation like a noble child, which was a bit of luxury for Matt, who was born as a commoner. All Matt did was to improve his strength as quickly as possible and convert all the merits he gained into strength as soon as possible.
He knows that the Steel Breathing Technique is not as good as the Hunter Family's Beast Breathing Technique. He also knows that the General Qi-Entraining Technique does not have any characteristics. It requires the amount of fighting energy but not the amount of fighting energy and the strength but no strength. It is completely incomparable to Qing's Qi-Entraining Technique and the new water attribute.
Entraining Qi Jue.
But so what, the merits consumed and the difficulty of entry for these two items increase exponentially with their power. If he had to save up and redeem them, Matt would probably be a quasi-knight by now, and how could he be able to cut them off with one blow?
The head of a snow giant.
Matt is a smart man and knows that his strength on the battlefield is fundamental. Only with enough strength can he improve his survival rate on the battlefield and his progress in accumulating meritorious deeds.
"Team 2 is ready!"
There was no time to celebrate for Matt. Soon another snow giant attacked. This time there were three snow giants attacking Matt's line of defense. Matt's centurion had already lost more than half, and the centurion next to it had lost more than half.
The captains have all been killed, but the follow-up reinforcements have not yet caught up. Matt can only rely on himself and the remaining hundreds of remnants to fight. The situation is a bit dangerous.
But there is absolutely no time to retreat at this time. Although the reward of the Hunter family is sufficient, the military law is also strict. If you dare to take a step back, you will not only die, but also your family members and even fellow villagers. Therefore, there are very few deserters in the Hunter family army.
Often able to fight tenaciously with nearly half of the casualty rate.
"Prepare the Mighty Crossbow!"
"put!"
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
"puff!"
Fortunately, things soon happened again. The divine crossbow on the distant city wall once again unleashed its power. The snow giant that had just attacked Matt and the others became the target of the divine crossbow. A snow giant was directly hit in the chest by a giant arrow that was more than five meters long.
, without even uttering a scream, he covered his wound and knelt down on the ground, Tall. Another snow giant was also shot, and Matt and others once again got a chance to breathe.
…
Outside Xueyuan City, the sound of killing shook the sky.
With the Snow Giant King Vernon in charge, the surrounding Snow Giant tribes no longer had any space to draw water, and they all started to attack with all their strength. The elites of the three major tribes were directly used as forwards. Vernon
They didn't do any trick of encircling three and missing one. They directly surrounded all sides and attacked at the same time in order to maintain the maximum pressure. In the depths of the snowfield, as long as the human commander was not stupid, there was no possibility of abandoning the city and breaking out. It was better to attack from all four directions at the same time.
.
Now the Snow Giants maintain an attack of more than 500 Snow Giants in each direction, and the number of troops invested at one time exceeds 2,000. They also maintain a reserve of 4,000 people. When the attack in any direction is defeated,
After retreating, a new team of snow giants will come forward to continue the attack, while those who retreat will immediately replenish their batteries and prepare for a second attack.
Under the command of Vernon, this siege battle quickly entered the most intense stage. The Dragon Army, which was deployed on the outside, bore the brunt of the battle and became the most damaged unit. Not all teams were as lucky as Matt's Centurion. In the snow,
After two rounds of attacks by the giants, the outer defense line was beaten into a sieve. After paying a certain price, the Snow Giant broke through the defense line arranged by the Dragon Army. A large number of Dragon Army soldiers died in the outer iron and horse formation. When the Snow Giant
When the army is determined to attack, these reinforced iron horses and ground thorns cannot become an absolute obstacle.
The remaining part of the Dragon Army retreated to the defense line previously operated by the Griffin Army as ordered.
"My king, the soldiers have successfully broken through the human defense line. Do you need to take a short rest?"
The leader of the Gray Wolf tribe was actually bleeding from his heart when he said this. Although he quickly broke through the first line of humanity, the long-range firepower of the human side and the more than 20 top troops in the sky were not a display. Such a fierce attack on the Snow Giant
One side also paid a heavy price. Close to a thousand Snow Giants were killed directly in the battle, many of whom were members of his Gray Wolf tribe.
But facing Vernon, he didn't dare to complain at all. In his eyes, after a day of continuous attack, the soldiers were a little tired, and the sky was getting dark. It was better to just call it a day.
, rest for a while before attacking.
But Vernon rejected his proposal and directly ordered:
"Let the second team withdraw and rest. The third team will immediately launch an attack. Next, the elite of the Royal Court will serve as the reserve team. All human peripheral fronts must be cleared tonight."
"Yes, my king!"
Vernon's order was very firm, and he even put the direct descendants of the royal court he brought into the battle order. No other leader dared to question Vernon, and they quickly prepared for the next round of attacks.
On the city wall, Richard looked at the snow giant army retreating like a tide, and his heart was not at all calm. Although the sky was getting dark, the snow giants had no intention of stopping their attack.
The snow giants who retreated this time were obviously just going back to rest. Standing on the city wall, you could already see from a distance that another snow giant was forming a team and preparing to attack. This posture did not give any time to breathe and adjust.
The Snow Giant's attack was more violent than Richard had imagined. The Snow Giant's attack, which had no regard for casualties, forced the outer defense line, which was expected to be able to last for a few days, to give up after holding on for a day and consuming some Snow Giants. Now it is retreating.
The army is still working with the Griffin Legion to reinforce the second line of defense.
But now it seems that the Snow Giant will not leave Snowfield City a lot of adjustment time like last time, and the next round of attack is just around the corner.
Something must be done...
"Siel!"
"Lord Richard."
"Get ready, I will bring the unicorn holy beast with me to fight later."
