Chapter 587: Fighting in the Niraya Mountains (Part I)
PS: The chapter is not missing, but the name of the previous chapter was wrong.
"Boom." Looking at the cave in front of him, a member of the Papal Guard, who was holding a kite-shaped shield and spear, couldn't help but swallow. The other members of the Pope who followed him on the side, as well as other various troops belonging to the Great Empire on which the sun never sets, such as the Xiyi Warriors and the Atlantan Crescent Spearmen, all took half a step back.
"Great, everyone be tighter, there may be snake people in front and around at any time, as soon as they appear, we will make them, and the Greek fire thrower, remember to aim when the time comes." After receiving a nod in response, the member of the Papal Guard motioned to several of his comrades who were also members of the Papal Guard, and then slowly pushed forward while raising his kite-shaped shield and spear in a fighting position, while the soldiers behind him followed closely behind the members of the Papal Guard in front of the group to guard the surrounding rock walls.
"Hiss.........." As the members of the Papal Guard drew closer and closer in the cave, a strange whisper gradually sounded in the minds of these members of the Papal Guard, and with the experience accumulated in the previous battle, the members of the Papal Guard quickly judged what this sound and shadow represented, and gestured to the Greek Pyo who was wearing heavy chain mail and a Latin-style helmet behind him.
After receiving the order, the soldier who never set the sun on his back immediately trotted forward, and after nodding to his comrades, he immediately raised the Greek firethrower in his hand and sprayed it towards the cave, shooting out the pillar of fire like a meteor to instantly light up the surrounding environment, and at the same time opening up the scenery in the cave, and illuminating several stunned faces whose facial shapes were very similar to those of the Naga warriors, and then. The sun never set, and the soldiers heard screams from inside the cave at about the same time.
"Don't be careless, the enemy will come soon, quickly surround the entrance of the cave and prepare for battle, under the command of the papal guard, the soldiers of the sun will never set in a hurry to run to the cave with fire and smoke, at this time the sun will not set Greek firethrower is loading the Greek fire in his hand, ready to spray the lit Greek fire into the cave again, here, the outside of this cave will not only be surrounded by the extremely adhesive and indestructible Greek fire, so that the entrance to the cave will be completely blocked. At the same time, it can also create a lot of smoke, so as long as the cave has only one entrance and exit, and there are no natural ventilation holes inside, then the enemies in the cave will either smoke or suffocate due to lack of oxygen.
Just as the sun never set on the Greek firethrower compressed and sprayed the lit Greek fire into the cave, the strange whispers of the previous one gradually sounded in the surrounding cliffs and cliffs. Immediately, hundreds of terrifying creatures with similar body size and appearance to Naga warriors appeared on the surrounding cliffs. The only difference between them and the Naga warriors is that they have a layer of snakeskin armor that looks similar to an earthy yellow color. Instead of the sunset armor that the Naga warriors wore on their coats, and other than that, these monsters didn't hold giant tridents like the Naga warriors, but their hands, the dragon's claws, to be exact, were extremely long, and looked as sharp as a sword, glittering in the moonlight.
No, this counts as for these soldiers on whom the sun never sets. After all, the army that never sets has even met the intelligent races with terrifying appearances, such as snow trolls, half-dragons, and strong orcs, so how can they be afraid of the appearance of these snake-like monsters in front of them? In fact, what really shocked the soldiers that the sun never set was because these monsters actually sent out a burst of snake-like figures. Directly along those cliffs, he twisted his lower body and moved quickly.
Yes, these monsters that look like snakes and have snakes are like snakes, shaking their bodies and lower bodies to move themselves forward, and at the same time crawling on the cliffs like geckos, which means that the sun never sets soldiers will be attacked by these monsters in any direction except for the cave burning behind them.
"Use the Mo Forge Crossbow! No matter how tough the leather armor of these snake people is, they can't stop the armor-piercing ability of our Mo Forged Crossbow of the Great Empire! "In the sound of the order of a grassroots officer who should be a crossbowman who never sets, dozens of soldiers in the team who were holding Mo Forged crossbows immediately raised the terrifying Mo Forged crossbow in their hands and began to kill those snake warriors who flew towards him at close range, and the fact is just as the grassroots officer who never sets the sun said, the armor-breaking power of the Mo Forged Crossbow of the Sun Never Setting Great Empire is indeed not something that the snakeskin armor on the snake man warrior can stop, and the snake man warrior was hit by the crossbow arrows shot by Mo Foran's crossbow, and dozens of casualties appeared in an instant.
But after all, at this time, the number of people on the snake man side has the upper hand, so even if the sun does not set on the side, even if they have Mo Forge's crossbow for them, they can kill some snake man warriors before the snake man warriors rush up, but when the hand-to-hand combat between the soldiers on both sides begins, the snake man warriors still have the upper hand with a larger number of advantages.
Moreover, after combat tests, it was found that the snake warriors were not afraid of the damage caused by weapons such as spears and swords because of the natural snakeskin armor on the surface of their bodies, on the contrary, the crescent spears with armor-piercing ability in the hands of the Xiyi warriors and the Atlantan crescent spearmen had unexpected benefits when the opponent was a strong snake warrior.
With the snake warriors and the soldiers of the sun never set hand-to-hand combat, with the advantage of stature, the snake side soon gained the upper hand, and the soldiers of the sun did not set under the impact of the snake warriors were forced to gradually retreat, although the soldiers of the sun did not set have the advantage of armor and equipment, but after all, the two fists were difficult to defeat the four legs, and soon, the soldiers of the sun did not set after dozens of people were killed and injured and were forced to retreat to the edge of the hole burning with Greek fire, and at this time these soldiers of the sun did not set even felt the heat behind them and the pungent feeling of smoke.
However, just when the soldiers of the sun never set were about to fall into despair, dozens of black shadows suddenly fell from the sky, accurately pressing on the bodies of many snake warriors, and the snake people who seemed to be invincible before were like natural enemies they saw, completely abandoned those soldiers who had been forced to a dead end by themselves, and fled in all directions.
The snake warriors wanted to escape, those black shadows would not let these snake warriors go back so easily, as the black shadows under the night sky spread their snow-white wings, and the sunset griffin knights riding the royal griffins immediately asked the royal griffons under their crotch to catch these snake people, and the griffons were like eagles catching rabbits, grabbing these tall snake warriors from the ground, and then directly taking them to a height of 100 meters to fall them down, and the snake warriors who got such an ending all fell into flesh.
"Breaking through to the southeast, the main force has crossed the Nirya Mountains to reach the border of the snake tribe's territory, and now only you squads that were scattered in the Niriya battle have not arrived." After driving the snake warriors away, the griffin knights descended from the sky and said to the soldiers in front of them.
"Thank you, brother! By the way, do you still have our troops that were scattered in the war? Upon receiving the news, the member of the Papal Guard, who had taken the lead before, immediately stepped forward and asked the griffon knight in front of him who had come to guide them in the right direction.
"I don't think so........." After pondering for a while, the griffin knight said: "In the past few days, we have rarely found a squad like you that was defeated in the war, and even if we did, it was all the corpses left behind after being ambushed by the snake warriors, but then again, it is a miracle that so many of you can survive after being scattered for so many days!" ”
"Hehe, this ......... I had participated in the Attedaran Mountains when I was a soldier in the 1st Army, so it was a bit of an impact on navigating through the mountains where the near-inanimate vegetation existed. Oh yes, that brother! So is this battle a victory or something else? As he spoke, a trace of worry appeared on everyone's faces.
As for the situation before him, the knight of the griffin on which the sun never sets, as if he had become commonplace, immediately said after the leader of the papal guard raised it: "Of course it is Victorious! Our army is invincible! Although I didn't think that the snake people tribe had been secretly operating in the Nirya Mountains for so long, and they were still the head snakes here, but after all, the strength of our side of the sun never set was not less than that of the snake people, and the army was also equipped with many can-throwing bows and Greek fire throwers, in this case, even if the snake people warriors used a surprise attack to divide our army into several, but in the end, the main force belonging to our 100,000 sun army still defeated the 30,000 main forces of the snake people's side, in fact, what you have seen before is the same as you, The snake warriors who scattered and fled after being defeated by our soldiers one by one, it's just that because of their strong ability to hold together, it seems that the snake warriors hiding in the interior of the Nirya Mountains have an advantage, hey, the time is almost up, then I won't say much, you guys quickly set off to break through to the southeast! By the way, you must remember that you must never turn back. ”
"For what?" The member of the Papal Guard asked, confused.
"Quite simply, His Highness Leo has ordered us Griffin Knights to use asphalt clay pots to clear the 'weeds' of the Nirea Mountains." (To be continued.) )
