Chapter 45: When You Can't Solve Your Opponent in the Dark, the Light Makes You Feel Blind!
Raphael estimated that there were at least a thousand or so guards in Baron Morris's castle at the moment! No matter how angry Baron Maurice is, he will not take all the soldiers in his castle away, this is stupid! The lord's authority comes from his soldiers! How can a lord without soldiers maintain his majesty?!
I was stuck in the castle every minute, and I didn't dare to go out!
The soldiers usually live in the barracks outside the city, and today's castle can be said to be the most lively in more than ten years! Not only did the soldiers enter it, but a battle was fought in it!
Raphael was surrounded by more than a hundred soldiers from the second and third teams, because the squad leader was drawn out by Raphael to train recruits, but the placement of Raphael's personal guards made up for this lack of soldiers, and Raphael's personal guards so far have thirty-five people! If you exclude the ranged professionals who are good at bows and arrows and Parker Dew, the twenty people that Raphael just sent out are all melee professionals!
The guards have always been expensive, not much more expensive! The guards who follow Raphael will not always follow Raphael's side unless they are in the team, Raphael will place them in the army and territory at the right time, after all, there is absolutely no problem with the loyalty of those who can serve as guards! Let them manage the territory and lead the army Raphael can also rest assured!
The number of guards in Raphael's mind is best kept to around a hundred! This may not seem like a lot, but it's the most appropriate amount! It's like being a little less skinny and a little more fat!
"Intruder!!"
When you can't deal with your opponent in the dark, the light will be dazzling!
"Rush!" Raphael's order, in addition to the guards surrounding Raphael, the soldiers raised their long knives to fight with the soldiers who appeared, the soldiers of the second and third teams did not receive orthodox horse combat learning, so that they may not be able to play a role in fighting with people on horses, horses are just tools used for transportation! After choosing a defensive position, the soldiers had already abandoned their horses and took their weapons in their hands!
For the barrel three-strike battle array, Raphael also did not have a private collection, not only for personal training, but also for the soldiers under his command as long as they have this qualification, Raphael has also issued it! After all, this kind of low-level battle formation is moldy in their own hands, it is better to use it to improve the strength of their subordinates, even if it spreads, it is not a big problem, after all, this kind of battle formation is not good, it is a bad street, and some nobles who are a little lower in the middle may not look down on it, that is, they look very high-end in a poor country like them......
The soldiers formed battle formations, and the archers often stayed on the walls, rarely following the patrolling ranks, and did not have to face the ranged professions, which was simply a blessing time for everyone! Before the advent of equipment such as tower shields for defending archers, on the battlefield, it was the archers who collected the most lives, and magicians often did the final thing!
But it's different when a lord is a magician, what Raphael is doing now is a race against time, and Raphael must completely occupy the castle before Baron Maurice returns with his soldiers! Raphael believed that the carrier pigeons that went to inform Baron Maurice must have flown out in all directions, and although Raphael sent Xiaoqing to intercept them, Raphael knew that one or two birds would definitely appear in the end!
A fireball condensed in Raphael's hand and was thrown! Accurate landing point, positioning blasting! The flames raged on the lawn, and the attacked soldiers were directly engulfed by the fireballs, fluttering and rolling on the ground, but to no avail, they could only turn into a charred corpse!
The frequency of Raphael's attacks is very high, and a soldier will turn into a charred corpse in about 0.5 seconds, but Raphael also stopped the release of magic in time, and the magic in his body is boiling, Raphael doesn't plan to turn himself into a self-destructing soldier! Blowing himself up because of the excessive release of magic is sure to become the latest topic of conversation in the wizarding world! And it will also be a model for tutors to use to educate students! It's just the opposite......
The benefits of spell slots can be realized at this time, and using spell slots to cast magic is not only fast but also does not cause the mana to boil in the body! Therefore, every high-level mage has a very strict plan for his spell slot! But more than two-thirds of the spell slots are used to store the magic for defense and escape!
A magician who does not run away is stupid, always put himself in the safest place, must be the first thing the magician says to every apprentice!
The morale of the soldiers is low, and it is the most demoralizing moment when the enemy has a spell class and the team does not! It's like someone else has a nuclear weapon in their hands, and when you don't have it, you will never easily fight to the death with others!
If you say that in addition to Raphael's plastic magic, the most active on the battlefield is Cather, in the face of the former 'comrade', the giant sword in Cather's hand does not know how to write the word mercy, bloody and brutal is the most appropriate to describe Cather's battle, cutting off the waist, slapping on the head and other combat skills, which fully reflects the cruel nature of the battle! Berserkers have always been a group of people who are looking for how to kill enemies quickly and easily, and their crazy fighting spirit is impressive!
Unlike the War Ghosts, who pursue technical kills, Berserker's skill slot is full of skills that pursue one-hit kills! Powerful impacts, thunder strikes, decapitations, and cross-cutting slashes all reflect the spirit of this profession!
However, most of the soldiers who could be left to defend the city were diehards of Baron Maurice, and when they saw those soldiers who were inclined to surrender, the weapons in their hands were cut directly at them, and a few heads fell to the ground to make the soldiers understand that they were dead in front and behind, and the number of enemies was not large, and it seemed that the magician could no longer use magic, and the soldiers decided their position!
"I'm here to promise that if I can defend the castle, then I will ask the Baron for credit!" A man in white armor said loudly that this man was the knight of Baron Maurice who had left behind in the castle. His name is Quinir, and he is trusted by Baron Morris on weekdays!
Hearing Quinir's sworn words, the soldiers present also had an idea, give it a go, and turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!
If they really succeed in defending the castle, they will definitely be rewarded by Baron Maurice, and there will definitely be one by one! Maybe Baron Morris was happy in his heart, and when the time came, they might still be able to have a little leader to take charge of it, and imagine the good days ahead, and the soldiers felt that there was another force in themselves!
