Chapter 657. Reinforcements from the elves
"Wow!!" There was a burst of exclamation from the accompanying team.
Bandak also stood in place in a slightly shocked way, he didn't expect that the spells of the Elven Kingdom and the construction technology of the Dwarf Kingdom would have such a big impact effect.
"Lord, how did you come up with such a weapon?" Staring at the rainbow crossbow in his hand, Bandak asked.
"This was introduced to me by the hired workers of the dwarf country, and it can be regarded as a different model of their weapons to defend against foreign enemies." Kant introduced.
The dwarf nation is short in stature and, by nature, likes to be alone. There is no actual interaction with other races. Therefore, the creation of powerful weapons became their main means of military defense.
However, in the past, most of the spell weapons produced by the dwarf clan were sealed with the power of nature, and this time, the power of the elf clan was sealed in the crossbow, which is really a fresh progress.
"This weapon called the Guanhong Crossbow is indeed extraordinary." Bandak sighed again.
"Well, you can select a team of men from Sergeant Rhodok's barracks to train you how to use this weapon. In this way, it will exert a tenfold and hundredfold effect on the battlefield. Kant praised.
"It should be." Bandak put the crossbow back in the box, and said excitedly to Kant and said, "The lord has been working hard for the past few days, and it turns out that he is looking for such a powerful backup for us. I can't thank you enough. ”
"After all, wars like this are still in the minority, so it is natural to think carefully and thoroughly. But there's only a small amount I can do. The main force is still the fighters who fight hard, and I hope you can minimize the casualties and return victorious. Kant said solemnly.
Bandak raised his right hand to his chest and nodded solemnly.
After entrusting the reinforcements of the Elven Kingdom to Bandak's troops, Kant mounted his camels with his accompanying escort soldiers and set out for the gates of Dehrim.
And the army to the land of the dead continued their long journey.
Compared to the fighting on the battlefield, the half-month trek seemed more grinding. However, thanks to the previous special training, so far, there has not been a phenomenon of soldiers falling behind.
It's summer, and the temperature difference in the desert has become more extreme.
Every evening, Bhandak and his subordinates began to look for a place to set up camp.
This is because this is the time of day when the temperature is relatively mild.
After dark, the sand that has been scorched to the point of heat has cooled down, and sometimes even a thin frost appears. To get used to the temperature difference, everyone wraps themselves in cotton coats and lights a bonfire.
Deherim's soldiers were still more talkative, and they were usually restrained in the barracks, but when it was time to set out for battle, the atmosphere was very lively.
On such occasions, the Bandak Commander did not say much other than stipulating that they needed to rest on time.
So on these days, the fighters will organize their own small activities to deepen communication and connection with each other.
The group of people in the elven country are relatively silent, and after receiving their own part of the supplies every day, they have not seen them much in the crowd.
Bandak had met and lived with this group of people in previous battles, and although it was not an acquaintance, it was still familiar with their behavior and habits.
It seems that in the army of the Elven Kingdom, the level of medical soldiers is lower than that of ordinary soldiers. Therefore, this group of medical soldiers also belongs to the relatively silent category in their own national team. However, the style of work is quite reliable and reliable.
This is more than enough for the current army of Dehrim.
According to the reply from the advance team, their current location is northwest of the City of the Dead, and it will be nearly a week or so before they reach the vicinity of the watchtower.
Early one morning, Bandak selected a dozen of his favorite fighters from among Rhodok's soldiers.
He began to study the efficacy of the crossbow.
The body of the Rainbow Crossbow is lighter than that of a regular crossbow, but it is not so easy for a Rhodok warrior to control this weapon while riding a horse.
Bandak can only be supervised and helped with shooting training on a daily basis.
Under the strict requirements of Bhandak, the training of the soldiers was still more effective.
At least the night before arriving in the City of the Dead, Bandak had fully raised the confidence and courage to overcome.
"Commander Bandak, we've come within detection range of the City of the Dead." The subordinate who has been assisting Bandak in handling military affairs all year round reported.
"Okay, then I'll rest around here for the night tonight. Prepare to attack the City of the Dead tomorrow. Bandak ordered.
On the eve of the war, there was no more noise in the barracks.
Some of the soldiers' tents were lit up until late at night.
Early the next morning, Bandak set out with his team.
The soldiers in charge of reconnaissance on the front lines had taken the watchtower in a corner of the City of the Dead, ensuring that the bands of several thousand men in Bandak would not be discovered by the undead until they marched under the city gates.
Deherim's army lined up under the main gates of the City of the Dead.
The undead soldiers guarding the walls panicked, after all, they were still very new to the warriors of Dehrim.
The undead soldier of the communication hurried down the wall, trying to report the news.
But he was shot through the skull directly by an arrow from Bandak, and he fell to the ground in desolation.
The Swadia soldiers began to storm the city gates with wooden stakes.
And the archers covered it behind them, so that the soldiers on the towers could not poke their heads out.
Bandak's eyes couldn't help but narrow, he didn't feel quite right.
They chose to attack the City of the Dead in the morning, and so on. Ordinary undead soldiers are no threat to them. But this is only before the arrival of high-level undead warriors, there is a sweetness to taste.
What follows is the real battle.
A burly undead who was taller than an ordinary undead soldier jumped off the wall.
His movements were extremely fluid, as if his limbs were clinging to a wall.
The feathers of the bow and arrows passed him.
As his feet landed on the ground, he swung a sharp axe in his right hand.
With his sword in hand, he immediately smashed the siege stake.
The Svadia sergeant, who was standing near him, was startled and immediately took out his shield and protected it in front of him.
Bandak couldn't help but be stunned, he had never seen such an undead warrior before.
The warrior's originally dark eye sockets lit up with a blood-colored red light.
"What is this?"
