Chapter 1548 1534. Highland Battle 4
Countless ghost warriors were instantly dragged into the crypt by the giant tortoise soldier ants, and the remaining ghost warriors could not maintain the formation of the phalanx. As the constructed knights rushed down from the **** with knight spears, one by one The knight's spear pierced through the hard bone armor of the ghost warrior, and the sharp spear pierced through the body, pinning the ghosts one by one on the grass.
An evil ghost soldier hiding behind in the army struggled to break free from the giant claws of the giant ghost-striped soldier ant, and saw that the evil ghost companion in front was stabbed into the body by a spear from the constructed knight.
The constructed knight dropped the knight spear in his hand, and drew out the knight long sword to block the counterattack of the ghost warrior behind.
The magic-striped warhorse was covered with hard armor, stood up under the violent impact, and trampled on the chest of the evil ghost warrior with its iron hoof.
The long sword in the knight's hand swept out, the tip of the sword just passed the ghost warrior's neck, the blade of the long sword was covered with the brilliance of runes, and the sharp blade cut into the scaled bone armor On the piece, the skeleton piece suddenly shattered...
The evil ghost warrior wanted to look down, but he saw his own body, with thick purple blood coming out of the huge blood hole on his neck. Only then did he realize that his head had detached from his body and flew high.
As the surrounding scenery became dizzy, the ghost warrior couldn't even make a low growl.
These devil-pattern warhorses carried the knights on their backs and strenuously passed through the army of evil spirits. The battlefield was full of giant ghost-pattern soldier ants entangled with evil spirits. These giant soldier ants were stronger than the evil ghost warriors. Much more, as long as the ghost fighters are bitten by their fangs, they will never let go if they are not dead.
Moreover, these giant ghost-patterned soldiers are good at teamwork. When they see their companions entangled with evil spirits, they will jump on them and twist them together.
These giant ghost pattern soldier ants are more fearless than the evil ghosts. Even if the body is cut in half by the sword in the hands of the evil ghost warrior, the corpse will hang on the evil ghost warrior.
The constructed knight rushed out at the fastest speed, and then rearranged the charging formation on the other side of the hill.
The ant cavalry who rushed down after the knights of the construction held spears, and specially selected those dying ghost warriors to make up their swords. Poke a few holes in them.
The soldier ants under them also spewed a lot of sour juice towards the ghost warrior...
There were only more than 4,000 evil spirits in this vanguard, and almost all of them fell into the ambush circle of the giant ghost-patterned soldier ants. Rush outside.
The entire battlefield became chaotic, the evil spirits could not stand shoulder to shoulder against the giant ghost pattern soldiers, and no one would pay attention to the constructed knights rushing out of the army formation like a whirlwind. All the evil spirits almost fought on their own, except Those who were entangled by the giant ghost-patterned soldier ants, the rest were ready to escape from here.
The evil spirits lost their firm will to fight and only knew how to run away. The situation on the battlefield was quickly controlled by the Constructed Knights.
…
Marquis Jeffrey thought that the West Route Army, a constructed knight regiment, had no combat power at all, and then realized that he was too naive.
Looking towards the battlefield from a distance, those ghost warriors who usually looked like evil spirits, now became panicked, like a group of wanderers who were driven everywhere.
When did the evil spirit become so cowardly? It turns out that they are also scared sometimes...
The appearance of the ant cavalry has refreshed Marquis Jeffrey's cognition.
What type of arms is this? Are those monsters rideable too?
Seeing countless giant monsters emerge from the soil, Marquis Jeffrey never stopped killing on the battlefield, but these ghost warriors became the targets of slaughter like pigs.
The other constructed swordsmen were also a little dumbfounded. They didn't expect this battle to be a one-sided situation.
It turns out that they don't need to join forces to defeat this army of evil spirits.
Those rumors about the West Route Army seem to be true...
All kinds of thoughts came out of the hearts of these constructed swordsmen.
Many nobles who can become Constructed Swordsmen actually have their own pride in their hearts.
The Constructed Swordsman Group led by Simon Jeffrey was pieced together by the noble lords of Handanal City. Many noble lords have only a dozen Constructed Swordsmen around them. He will recruit first-rank swordsmen to join his construction guards. This kind of construction swordsmen actually have no freedom to speak of.
They don’t have the magic-weave structure themselves. Only when they join the construction guard of the great noble lord, can they become enough-constructed swordsmen. Once they leave the construction guard, they must return the magic-weave structure.
This kind of constructed swordsman usually only gets a monthly salary, and there are some subsidies in wartime, and there will be a small commission for the spoils of war.
There is also a construction swordsman who belongs to the free identity...
A real nobleman needs to have titles, territories and magic patterns at the same time. These three symbols symbolize status and identity...and wealth at the same time.
Magic pattern construction is considered a fortune for the nobles, and it can be passed down in the family.
Some small noble families only have one set of magic pattern structure, which is also inherited. After hard training, the successor will become a swordsman of the structure.
In the Constructed Swordsman Group of Marquis Simon Geoffrey, there are many swordsmen with magic pattern structures. Although they are members of the Constructed Swordsman Group, they are also free agents. The Constructed Swordsman Group There are not many constraints on them.
It is estimated that the only thing that can make them feel a little jealous is the noble status of Marquis Simon Jeffrey. These small nobles dare not provoke a Marquis casually.
If Marquis Simon Jeffrey makes some major mistakes during the command process, these constructed swordsmen have the right to leave at any time. If not, you will lose your life.
Even life is almost gone, what's the use of those trophies.
Or just like at this moment, Marquis Simon Jeffrey rejected Captain Andrew's invitation to join the battle, and missed some opportunities at his fingertips in vain.
Some commanders who do nothing will be abandoned by the construction swordsmen under them at any time. In fact, if Marquis Simon Geoffrey is not watching this good show, maybe these free construction swordsmen will not be allowed to Generate these ideas.
But Marquis Simon Jeffrey firmly believed that the essence of Andrew and his constructed knights was to strike a stone with a pebble, and this battle was doomed to fail.
The current situation on the battlefield is exactly the opposite of the judgment of Marquis Simon Jeffrey, which makes Marquis Simon Jeffrey's prestige suddenly drop to the lowest point.
The entire construction swordsman group became extremely quiet, and no one even talked about the battle anymore. Many construction swordsmen with noble identities communicated with their eyes.
For a while, the atmosphere in the Constructed Swordsman Group became extremely weird...
Seeing more and more giant ghost pattern soldier ants emerge from the burrow, the ghost warriors fell into despair.
The constructed knights charged once and twice, and the knight spears over five meters long penetrated the ghost warriors' bodies, and the ant cavalry who followed behind would chop off the heads of these ghost warriors and take the knight spears from the ground. Pull it out from the soil and hand it to the constructed knights for the next charge.
Marquis Jeffrey's face was ashen, and he stood and watched from a distance without saying a word.
In fact, he has long been in the mood to watch the battle, but he has no excuse to leave immediately. After all, he has to maintain his image. Before that, he was the most outstanding commander of the Constructed Swordsmen in Handanal City.
Now! If these things are reported back to Handanal City...
Thinking of this, Marquis Jeffrey felt his chest was blocked, as if someone had punched him hard in the heart.
It wasn't until the end of the battle that the vanguard of the Evil Ghost Legion was defeated in the southern part of the Villagasi Hills. Only then did Marquis Simon Geoffrey leave in a hurry with his assembled swordsmen.
…
And on the battlefield here, Andrew led all the constructed knights to hunt down the ghost warriors who fled north.
After the battle, only less than 2,000 of the vanguard composed of more than 4,000 evil spirits escaped in embarrassment. Although there were still a large army of evil spirits behind, to Andrew, this was not a big deal. What…
Wolf knight Tiger led the ant cavalry to stay and clean the battlefield. The cavalry harvested the heads of evil spirits on the battlefield and peeled off the black-striped devil's skin.
He did not go north with Andrew to hunt down these evil spirits, which was the biggest restriction on Andrew. Without the assistance of the ant cavalry, his Constructed Knights were destined not to be able to chase them very far.
The two druids who manage these giant ghost pattern soldiers are strictly following Suldak's orders.
After the battle, the giant ghost-pattern soldier ants who died in battle took out their magic cores and peeled off their hard armor, and either burned them or buried them on the spot...
Feed the rest of the giant ghost pattern soldier ants to prepare for the next battle, and they will not participate in Andrew's pursuit.
After peeling off the black devil's skin, the body of the evil ghost is almost useless, and these will become food for the giant ghost-striped soldier ants.
The Constructed Swordsmen of the reinforcements left silently the moment the battle was won, leaving only the ant cavalry collecting spoils and the giant ghost-pattern soldier ants waiting to leave together. It will temporarily dig a hole and put its body into the soil.
The battlefield became very quiet, and the wolf knight Tiger seemed very patient. He knew that Andrew would return soon, because he learned from the magician scouting team that the evil spirit army in the north was not far from the evil spirit vanguard. Too far away, Andrew and the others didn't have much chasing distance.
Without the ant cavalry and the giant soldier ant army, Andrew would not be so reckless as to let the constructed knights attack the large army of the evil ghost army, so they will soon withdraw from the north.
Now that there is no reinforcements, the construction swordsman group guards the southern boundary line. According to Suldak's order, the construction knights, ant cavalry and giant soldier ant army will continue to insert northward into the reinforcement occupied area, catch up and keep going north Walking reinforcements.
Suldak's order is to hope that he and Andrew can save more than 100,000 ancient Bolai horses in the reinforcements of Handanaer City, which is a considerable fortune.
In the battle just now, he and Bonita cooperated with Berserker Andrew to kill a ghost general in the army. As everyone became more and more familiar with the ghost general, their numerous weaknesses were exposed one after another.
Although these ghost generals are powerful, it is much easier to fight against the ghost generals.
Chopped off the long blue horn on the forehead of the Evil Ghost General, Wolf Knight Tago tied the head of the Evil Ghost General with a hemp rope, and hung it **** on his waist.
Then sat on a high hill on the edge of the battlefield, waiting for Andrew and his Constructed Knights to return safely...
…
The large troops of the West Route Army walked northward along the blue-purple tundra for another two days before reaching the edge of a canyon extending from southwest to northeast.
There is a high hill on the east side of this fault canyon, which is almost 60 meters deep.
It is said to be Gaogang, but it is actually just a huge gentle slope. There is even a river passing under the slope. This river finally flows into the fault canyon, and there is a lake in the middle of this canyon, which is only more than 80 kilometers away. .
From here, you can see the unrecognizable Villagasi hills in the north. After the actual investigation by the magician investigation team, Suldak believes that this is the most advantageous high hill in this area, and the city of Handanal The reinforcement line is on the other side of the fault canyon.
He wants to build a military stronghold here, and he doesn't plan to fight in the wilderness with the evil ghost army that is about to kill them.
Few trees can be seen on the tundra in the Moyunling Highlands, but there are still some deciduous forest belts in the canyon, but Suldak has no plans to cut down all the trees in the canyon to build a military stronghold.
The main material for building the stronghold this time is the shale that can be seen everywhere on the Moyunling Highlands. These shales can be stacked very high without much modification. As long as each layer is filled with volcanic ash cement, a solid road can be built in no time. city walls.
As soon as the infantry soldiers of the West Route Army arrived here, they began to mine this kind of stone around Gaogang, and then built a wall with Gaogang as the center day and night. It is a pity that the foundation of the wall has just been built, and a large number of ghost warriors appeared in the hills of Villagaxi in the north.
The evil ghost fighters saw the camp of the West Route Army from a distance, but they didn't rush forward to start the battle.
They stopped at the edge of the hilly land, apparently waiting for the ghost warriors behind.
According to the information Avid brought to Suldak, this army of evil spirits belongs to the westernmost of the three army of evil spirits that came from the North Sunderland Mountains.
The other two evil ghost legions chose to rest in the hills of Villagasi, and they were not in a hurry to show up...
It was the evil ghost army on the easternmost side that was hit head-on by the Constructed Knights and Ant Cavalry. The evil ghost generals were probably worried that they were not strong enough, and there are still ghost warriors scattered all over the North Senderland Mountains. They rushed towards the hills of Villagasi, but the ghost warriors behind them seemed much looser.
Being stared at by a large group of ghost warriors in the hills, the atmosphere in the West Route Army camp also became tense.
Everyone doesn’t know when those evil spirits will rush up. The camp seems to be quiet from the outside, but in fact, the camp is still building walls as soon as possible...
