Chapter 489: The Fall of the Twin Stars (Chapter 19)
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, you are now at the forefront of the battlefield, isn't it just to tell those Water Qilin soldiers where you are by hanging your battle flag here? That doesn't seem right. After the eyes of many guards beside him, the member of the general's guard finally hardened his head and raised his doubts to General Sherman.
"So? Do you think that with your skills you can't beat the Watt Guard? Or is it ......... You are afraid of death. Sherman's tone was very cold at this time, and the coldness made everyone around him shudder, but then the surrounding members of the general guard were angered by Sherman's words: "No general! We're just looking out for your safety! We are not afraid of the broken iron rods in the hands of those barbarians, like those with developed limbs and simple minds, each of us can do 3! ”
As members of the Sunset Guards trained by Leo and Zalaku (except for the generals' own personal guards, most of the members of the General's Guard are composed of the heavy cavalry troops that are expanding from the Royal Knights to the expanding Royal Knights, that is, the heavy cavalry troops who have followed Sun Lin to fight in all directions, so they must be recruited in the Nottingham fortress like the members of the Royal Knights and the Orc Royal Heavy Axe Guard), they are a little lower in skill than the Royal Knight Guard who followed Sun LinBut their sense of honor and fanaticism for charging into battle was a notch higher than that of the members of the Royal Knight Guard, who had completely turned into ruthless and cold-blooded humanoid weapons in battle, and it was completely impossible for a soldier under the command of a grumpy race leader like a half-orc without a little temper.
"Then hang up the battle flag for Lao Tzu! If you're really thinking about me. "On the surface, Sherman's choice is undoubtedly to tell the enemy that I am on the city gate tower, and there is a big fat piece of meat waiting for you to gnaw on the city gate tower, which is completely a sign of looking for death, but in fact, this move is not only the only way to change the current battle situation, but also the only way to keep the sun from setting and civil strife.
Don't look at the Atlantan soldiers who never set the sun now, under the command of the Atlantan officers, fighting with the water unicorn soldiers, it seems that these soldiers can sacrifice themselves for the sun never sets, but with the lesson of the noble heavy armor corps in the southeast theater of the Western Continent, Sherman dared to swear to the sky at this time that the reason why these Atlantan soldiers are fighting so bravely now is entirely because the number of deaths of those Atlantan officers and nobles is not enough. Since the Atlantan soldiers in the southeast theater of the Western Continent were able to defect to the side of the Water Kirin so quickly after their officers were killed, then the Atlantan soldiers who were fighting at the city gate in front of them, as well as the private soldiers of the Atlantan nobles who were fighting on the city walls, were also very likely to defect when the situation on the side of the sun never set became more and more unfavorable in the future, after all, as stated in the last battle report that Asal passed to Sherman, the Atlantans, especially those who lived in the inland areas, So far, there has been no attachment to the Sunset Empire, although the Sunset Empire has invested tens of millions of gold coins in this area to restore the operation of all walks of life in the interior of the Western Continent, and has also built many civil public facilities.
Of course, in the final analysis, this situation is still due to the low morale of these second-tier troops recruited from the Atlanta region, or they are easy to lose morale, after all, the welfare of the army that never sets is still good, so Sherman now wants to stabilize the morale of the army, especially let these Atlantans continue to fight desperately for the soldiers who never set the sun, and the most effective way is of course to hang the battle flags of the two generals who never set on the city and personally sit in the city gate.
"Roar ........." When General Sherman's battle flag was hung on the top of the arrow tower by several members of the general's guard, and Sherman, who was holding a purple-shirted longbow, personally stood in the city gate tower and blew the horn on his body, the morale of the army that had fallen rapidly rose rapidly, although 4,000 Watt guards had already killed people from the city gate with two-handed war hammers from the city gate, and in a short period of time with the help of its slaughter to frighten the enemy infantry in the slaughter of hundreds of Atlantan spearmen, but Sherman also used shady tricks.
"Warriors of Jehovah! Let's slaughter the heretics in front of us with the weapons in our hands! God will surely bless us from seeing brown-haired and blue-eyed garbage after our victory! For the average soldier on which the sun never sets, Sherman's words can only inspire morale at best, but for the Papal Guard, this sentence can make its combat effectiveness instantly reach a state of explosive state, after all, the people who become members of the Papal Guard are generally composed of Catholic fanatics gathered from the territory of the Great Empire.
After hearing Sherman's encouraging tone, these warriors who were crazy for the faith immediately turned into hand-to-hand soldiers who were even more terrifying than the members of the Watt Guard, and on the battlefield at the city gate full of corpses and bloodstains, the members of the Papal Guard, who had originally fixed their oval shields and tried to resist the blows of those war hammers, abandoned the oval shields in their hands almost at the same time, or directly smashed these steel shields at the enemy, and then held the spears in both hands and launched a charge at a short distance, and the spearheads of the steel spears in their hands were deeply inserted into the bodies of the members of the Watt Guard. Then he grabbed the weapons next to him, of course, most of them were the two-handed war hammers left by the members of the Watt Guard, and smashed wildly at the water unicorn soldiers in front of him, and even some of the fierce members of the papal guard directly punched the water unicorn soldiers, and then scuffled with the water apocalypse soldiers with their bare hands or teeth, and the battlefield was extremely chaotic in this situation.
At this moment, the Watt Guard, who had seized the stairs leading to the gate tower, was also blocked by the members of the Walking Guards, although there were less than 100 members of the Foot Guards in the Gatehouse, their combat effectiveness was as real as what they had said before, and almost every member of the Captain's Guard could drink the blood of more than 3 members of the Watt Guards with the sword in their hands.
Almost at the same time, the gate of the western part of the outer city of Riptide Fort was slowly opened by the extremely guarded soldiers of the sunset, and a group of orc warriors armed with heavy swords and heavy plate armor were frantically pouring into the city, and at the same time, there were many members of the Sunset Longbow Guard holding purple-shirted longbows.
And in the distance, a battle flag with a snow-white background and a golden war lion inlaid on it was rapidly rising from the horizon.
