Chapter 414. Announce the end of the campaign

The Rhodoks studied spears, but they had reached the point of going mad.

And it's no wonder.

After all, right next to it is the cavalry-dominated kingdom of Swadia.

Only the complex geographical location of the Rhodok Mountains can hinder the heavy cavalry of the Swadia Kingdom, but if you want to defeat your former suzerain, you must develop troops that can restrain the heavy cavalry.

The heavily armored spear infantry was the route chosen by these Rhodoks.

It has also proven to be extremely useful.

They continued the defensive characteristics of the Rhodoks.

The dense troops formed a solid defense line like a mountain of rocks, with sharp spears, pressed towards the enemy's ranks in layers, and did not rush forward, and from time to time there were crossbowmen armed with heavy crossbows to counterattack, and the combat effectiveness was extremely terrifying.

At least under this formation, the many kingdoms of the entire Calradia continent were helpless.

It's like a porcupine made of rocks.

Impulse.

The bite is not bad.

There are many sharp external spines.

If a person is not checked and is close, it is even more miserable.

It's like the pikemen of the Dark Red Sect now, who stabbed with spears in their hands, but they could only reach the tower shield, but as the spears in the gaps in the tower shield swayed, they didn't know where they could stab a cold light.

The sharp cold is extremely deadly, stabbing at the throat and chest, and the thighs where the defense is weaker.

Just a moment.

Dozens of pikemen of the Scarlet Sect fell to the ground wailing.

Then, step by step, the infantry behind the tower shield pushed forward, pressed over vigorously, squeezed out a space, and came to the pikemen who were wounded and fell to the ground, and were smashed down by one one-handed war hammer after another.

The skull burst out, and it was directly smashed and bleeding, and the dead couldn't die anymore.

The means are cruel.

There is no living appearance at all!

This frightened the pikemen of the Dark Red Sect even more.

They were all pikemen who were afraid of the Crimson Sect, and they were actually Viscount Gibran, pikemen trained in Avilésburg, but they were transferred to the Death Penalty Mountain and became the private soldiers of the Crimson Sect.

It's not the elite troops of the Dark Red Sect, it's just a subordinate army guarding the periphery of the Death Penalty Mountain.

They didn't have to work for the Scarlet Sect.

Therefore, it is impossible to retreat.

And they knew that just behind them, 2 ballistas were waiting.

There are also more than 200 strong archers, who can completely let the ballista blast out of formation, and the strong archers cover the shots, so that these heavy armored pikemen with amazing defense but slow moving speed can become turtles that can only be beaten!

Finally, the pikemen commanders of these Crimson Sects thought the same thing.

There was a bit of scarlet in his eyes.

The demonic breath is circulating.

He is a superior from the Mountain of Execution, a demon cultist of the Scarlet Sect, and because the Demon Lord has given him great power, he is now able to control this army as a farmer.

He is an absolute diehard member of the Dark Red Sect.

That's why he personally led the troops to arrive.

As long as he slaughtered this group of cavalry that had inflicted heavy losses on Viscount Gibran at Avilésburg, he would be able to gain greater strength when he returned, and he could not help but tremble at the thought of this, and he was excited and fanatical.

As his order was given, the pikemen in front kept retreating, scattered, and gave way to the ballistas in the rear.

The spear as a weapon has been placed on 2 ballistas.

Just launch.

Powerful spears will shoot out like crossbow arrows.

Even the heavy tower shield can't stop it, and it will directly pierce the human body behind it, nailing the seemingly arrogant heavy-armored pikemen to the ground, and slowly dying with a miserable wail.

This is a siege weapon, and its power in field battles is comparable to that of an ancient version of artillery!

But before the ballista could be fired.

Inside the cave, groups of crossbowmen rushed out.

They were all Rhodok veteran crossbowmen, holding the finest heavy crossbows in their hands, and as they walked quickly, they formed up on the side of the cave entrance, and pulled the trigger in a very short time.

The sound of "whoosh" was endless, and the steel bolts shrieked as they tore through the air.

And it's at 100 meters.

The ballista, which was supposed to be in an absolutely safe position, was killed.

The steel crossbow bolts were like a torrential rain, nailed over in an instant, so that the operators who had not had time to react were suddenly pierced through the steel crossbow arrows, and the leather armor on their bodies could not stop them, and they fell backwards in pain one by one, collapsed to the ground, and then lost their lives, and they could not die again.

As for the operators who survived by hiding behind the ballistas, they all watched all this in horror, threw down their tools one after another, and fled backwards.

In the face of such accurate shooting, no one dared to wait here.

They don't have to work hard.

But in the rear, the black-robed Dark Red Sect Overseers appeared on their escape route.

The grim-faced commander waved his hand, and the long sword in the hand of the overseer team slashed down, instantly separating the heads and necks of these operators, and killing them on the spot, intimidating the soldiers around them whose morale had been shaken.

The rule of the Dark Red Sect is itself based on terror.

This is normal.

However, even if there was a team of warlords, it still couldn't save the already low morale.

Because the heavily armored pikemen holding the tower shield had already advanced over, so those Dark Red Sect spearmen could only keep retreating, and they had no intention of resisting at all, not to mention that they had no means to resist.

The best of them were the ones who wore chain mail.

Most of them are inlaid with iron armor.

But for the existence of the obviously elite infantry in front of them, what did they use to resist?

It's simply impossible!

And right at the mouth of the cave.

More troops appeared in cascading on.

It was the archers with their bows who climbed to the top of the hill with great speed, and then a rain of arrows covered the pikemen.

But when the strong archers of the Dark Red Sect tried to fight back, they were immediately scattered and fled by the steel crossbow arrows.

They have completely lost the ability to fight!

Morale is extremely low.

What's more, on the periphery, there were light cavalry of nearly 200 people, still galloping in all directions and harassing them.

From time to time, short javelins were thrown, and if someone dared to leave alone, they turned into a cluster with extraordinary ferocity, drew their scimitars, and rushed over with their spears roaring, slaughtering those lone soldiers of the Dark Red Sect.

"What's going on..."

Madness and despair appeared in the eyes of the commander of the Dark Crimson Sect.

Originally, this was supposed to be his victory, but he didn't expect that in the hole where there was a strange feeling of disgust, so many infantry appeared as reinforcements, and he didn't believe that there would be so many troops hidden inside.

Perhaps, the entrance to the cave is actually an underground passage!

His guess was correct.

It didn't work.

At the entrance of the cave, Kant had already led many cavalry to rush out.

With the roar of the horses, more and more desert bandits pounced and scattered towards the open plain beside them, mixed with well-equipped Salander riders, and Mamluks in armor with men and horses!

The battle, which had been going on for days, was finally over now. 8)
