119. I'm a Man!
Alfred was imposing.
Glowing red light flowed across the blade, creating a flame texture that resembled a real burning flame.
William could even feel the scorching heat falling from the sky, a slight smell of burning already swirling through his nostrils, as if his hair was scorching under the heat. At this moment, William couldn't help but start to think back to the past, the scenes of the past years flashed quickly in his mind, he had never felt death so close, but he found that there was no fear in his heart.
Yes, it's just calm.
"Fred! Don't kill him! Sean let out a frightened cry from behind Alfred.
Hearing Sean's voice, Alfred's heart sank slightly, he had exhausted all his strength when this halberd fell, and it was impossible to retract it at this moment. So he had to exhaust all his strength, so that the halberd was a little off, and it could pass by William's side, and then split the land next to William with an axe. But even so, William's entire left hand was burned by the flames surrounded by the fangs of the flame lion, and even William's skin was severely burned by the flames that passed by.
William's eyes opened, showing a slight dazedness, but soon—
Or rather, William's eyes only saw a dark shadow passing by, and before he could even see the situation, he felt that his jaw seemed to be pressed against something cold, and the chill emanating from it made him feel like he was frozen. It wasn't until the focus of his gaze finally regained that he saw that there was a long sword around his neck, and the person holding the sword was a young man with black hair and black eyes, who seemed to be about the same age as himself.
William recognized the man.
Sean.
An important role next to the target person, who is also the commander of the entire army, I heard that he is a swordsman, probably only the strength of the lower bronze, but no one has seen him shoot in the trade, so no one knows the specific strength. I just looked at the speed of the other party's flash. William's strength must be considered the pinnacle even in the lower bronze rank, right?
"Surrender or kill!" Sean took a breath. Then he shouted in a deep voice.
His voice was full of energy, and it was in the middle of the night, so Sean's voice actually came a long way. The two sides that are fighting, belonging to Sean's side of the army, have already been ordering "wait for dinner" and have gradually entered a defensive state, so the people of the White Wing Mercenary Group seem to have no intention of killing them all after seeing that the enemy does not seem to have the idea of killing them all. The already extremely low morale also made them gradually give up resistance.
But this kind of renunciation is not really a renunciation, but a kind of abandonment similar to a wait-and-see state, and they still hold their weapons and gather together cautiously. Back to back, facing the siege of the Northland barbarians. However, they also know that it is better not to provoke the enemy at this time, so their behavior is more of a subconscious self-preservation, rather than the idea of resisting.
Looking at the attitudes and reactions of these people, Sean said in a deep voice again: "I'll say it again! Lay down your arms and don't kill those who surrender! ”
As Sean's words fell, the Northland barbarians surrounding the white-winged mercenary group erected their half-body shields one after another. The spear rested on the shield. They form a circle. Then he strode forward several steps in succession, shrinking the enemy's space of movement by a circle. Make them more crowded, so that the space to be able to fight is naturally greatly reduced.
Seeing that these people did not seem to have any intention of laying down their weapons, the Northland barbarians with strong bows finally mounted their bows and aimed their arrows at these enemies. As long as Sean gave the order, they would loosen their strings and shoot arrows - this time at such a close distance, even if the Northland barbarians couldn't shoot, it was impossible to shoot the arrows elsewhere, and the location that the Northland barbarians were aiming at was also the lower body of these white-winged mercenary group soldiers, so that even if the other party wanted to dodge, they would definitely not be able to dodge all the arrow volleys.
Looking at the killing momentum emanating from the barbarians in the North, a soldier finally couldn't bear the pressure and dropped the spear in his hand.
"Bang Dang"
There was a slight sound, but it became extraordinarily clear in this dark night.
And after having the first person, there will naturally be a second person and a third person, just like a chain reaction, the soldiers of these white-wing mercenary groups gathered together have finally completely broken their will to fight, and they have thrown down their weapons one after another, choosing the promise that I don't know if it is possible to achieve it. They looked at the weapons in the hands of the Northland barbarians in horror, fearing that they would suddenly pounce on them in the next moment.
Sean nodded to Alfred, who quickly explained to the veterans, and the Northland barbarians quickly moved out of the way of a small gap, which was only enough for one person to pass through. However, in order to prevent unnecessary accidents, there are still some shield gunners around to defend, they are not only defending the enemies in this circle, but also those who have fled into the night because of the rout, and of course, those who are lucky not to die in the battlefield covered by the rain of arrows in front.
"Let them take off all the light armor from their bodies." Sean seemed to remember something, and quickly spoke.
Alfred nodded knowingly, and began to give orders. And those soldiers of the White Wing Mercenary Regiment, since they have all given up resistance and chose to surrender, it is naturally not unacceptable to unload the light armor at this moment, so under the supervision of Alfred and the Northland barbarians, these soldiers naturally have not much other choice, and can only follow the orders of Sean and others.
The next things to deal with prisoners of war and clean up the battlefield naturally do not need Sean to be responsible for, and the current situation can be handed over to Alfred and Cecilia to practice. After all, there will definitely be such situations often in the future, so the sooner you become proficient, the better.
It's just that even Sean didn't expect that the outer reserves of the White Wing Mercenary Regiment would be defeated so easily. This was something he didn't expect, originally he just wanted to paralyze the opponent's pursuit ability, so that he could infiltrate the kingdom of Dabiang smoothly, but he didn't expect the other party's commander to be so cooperative, giving Cecilia a chance to catch it all.
This is the real turning point of tonight's night attack.
If it weren't for such a great opportunity, Alfred would not have been able to achieve such brilliant results in the battle with his troops. However, another important part of this battle is that William miscalculated the combat effectiveness and execution of the Northland barbarians—Sean's Northland barbarian army. and the army of the Northland barbarians in the eyes of the general public. It's not the same at all. Of course, the most special thing is the difference in passwords, but these northern barbarians seem to be more clear about such passwords.
It can be said that the result of tonight's battle is entirely caused by the asymmetry of intelligence clues, and does not have any replicability or brilliance. It's all a battle of luck, if it were a different occasion, a commander or another unit. Then even if Sean successfully launched a night attack tonight, he would not be able to achieve such a brilliant record.
In the current service, the 3,000-strong reserve army of the White Wing Mercenary Regiment suffered more than 500 casualties and more than 1,000 wounded, of which more than 700 were lightly wounded and more than 400 were seriously wounded. More than 800 surrendered and more than 400 fled. On Sean's side, more than 400 Northland barbarians were killed in the battle, and nearly 200 others were wounded, and one veteran was also killed, but the establishment of the archer unit was intact, and the main reason for the death of the spear and shield soldiers was that they were attacked by the pikemen arranged by William, and at that time because of the lack of commanders. So the troops were thrown into a moment of confusion. I almost ate it all.
If it weren't for Alfred's forced break, the outcome of tonight's battle might have changed differently.
At this moment. The clean-up of the battlefield is also nearing completion. Sean and the others did not stop here, but chose to move to another more "clean" place, at Sean's suggestion, Alfred led a group of people to secretly execute those seriously injured soldiers, after all, they are in the current battlefield, serious injuries can not be treated at all, rather than wailing in pain, it is better to send them on the road.
Of course, it is impossible for people to find out about this kind of thing, otherwise the white-winged mercenaries who have just surrendered will naturally mutiny. The disposal of corpses is relatively consistent, both friend and foe, piled together, and cremated directly by Cecilia by casting magic.
By the time these things were done, the sky was almost slightly bright.
At this time, Sean finally had the opportunity to meet William face to face.
Of course, there are also Cecilia, Alfred, and Anno, the big guy, because this big man's performance is really outstanding, and his personal attributes are the best among all the Northland barbarians, and he has barely reached the strength of the lower bronze, Sean intends to train this big man to become the commander-in-chief of steel wings.
Steel Wings is the official name of this spear and shield unit. As for the current archer force composed of the Northland barbarians, Sean has also incorporated it into the formation of steel wings and has become the second echelon force. In the future, he also plans to form three more winged troops to recreate the glorious achievements of that family in the game.
And before that.
Sean looked at William with a smile on his face, how polite and polite his attitude should be, how kind and amiable he was. It's just that the more Sean is like this, the more afraid William's heart becomes, goosebumps have risen all over his body, and the inexplicable chill in his heart makes him feel that he didn't die under Alfred's axe tonight, which doesn't seem to be a thing to be thankful for.
"You're William. Yale? Sean looked at the handsome blonde man in front of him, and even picked up the oblique bangs that covered his right eye, observing it very carefully and carefully, and at the same time constantly issuing "not bad, not bad" and other creepy words that make people feel creepy.
Anno, a stupid big man, carefully poked Alfred, and said angrily, "Captain You shouldn't want to eat him, right?" ”
Alfred always felt that Sean's appearance was a little familiar, he seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, but when he heard Anno's voice, Alfred still said: "Sean has no interest in cannibalism." …… Probably, right? When he said the last sentence, Alfred looked at Cecilia, and when it came to the degree of familiarity, it was natural that no one could surpass Cecilia.
Seeing Alfred's gaze at her, Cecilia sighed helplessly: "Sean just took a fancy to him." …… As soon as he's interested in something, he'll behave like that, so you can get used to it. ”
And hearing Cecilia's words, Alfred remembered that when he and Sean first met, Sean didn't look at him like this!
However, since everyone's voices were not deliberately suppressed, it was natural that all of them fell to William word for word. Yale's ears. He shifted in some horror, trying to get as far away from Sean as possible, while shouting, "You, you...... What do you want! I'm telling you, I'm a man! Don't mess around! (To be continued.) )
PS: Yesterday's third shift, I'm sorry to be late!! Later, I was hungry, but when I saw that it was past two o'clock, I didn't eat anything, so I went out to find something to eat. Now I'm going to sleep~~ I'm so tired...... Do you want to treat me?
