The leader of the night goblins also brought his own guards, a group of night goblins with obviously better equipment. After killing a few boys who ran away in a panic, he gradually stabilized the front line.
"Hold on! Hold on, that Xiami with wings is no longer good! Take down Xiami's Stone City, and victory belongs to our great goblins!" The sharp voice of the leader of the night goblins echoed over the battlefield, which made Snow Li Fang's heart tightened.
"Fuck you!" Knight Fatis swung his sword in a circle and chopped off the heads of two night goblins who were running half a beat slower. "Brother Ackerman has never seen big winds and waves. He has killed giants." How could he have fallen into the hands of you losers who are worse than mice!"
Knight Fatis roared angrily, "Kill them all! I won't take any of the loot!" He boosted the morale of the adventurers around him with his profits.
"Broxon, take aim and hit me!" Snorri saw the night goblin boss and he was obviously different from the similar guards around him. How could he not start "shoot the thief first, shoot the king first" at this time?
This talented young engineer did not disappoint Snorri. While he directed the artillery crew members to correct the ballistic trajectories of the crossbows and cannons, he personally operated the flame cannon, which was the most difficult to use.
The leader of the night goblins dancing in front of the formation has not yet realized what is about to happen. He is still feeling complacent that he has successfully reorganized the front and made the sudden group of enemies afraid to step forward in fear!
At this moment, death fell from the sky! Three huge crossbow arrows, two cannon shells and a huge fireball appeared above the heads of the goblins.
While the artillery was unleashing its power, another team appeared at the mouth of the valley to the south of the battlefield, led by a small group of knights, the leader of which was sitting under a Pegasus with two wings.
"Charge! For Bretonnia!" the leading Pegasus knight shouted! He and his companions behind him held the knight's spear levelly and formed an assault formation with him as the arrow.
Behind them is a group of literal "common" archers, who use their longbows to rain down arrows on the goblins in the charging path.
"Peasant archers!" Snorri muttered. He still knew something about Bretonnia's only long-range power.
In Bretonnia, almost every peasant is required to learn how to use a longbow, whether they want to or not. This tradition was usually carried out by local lord overseers to ensure that they were ready to respond to the call of war.
This was because the chivalry the nobles followed prohibited them from using ranged weapons of any kind, which was considered an act of cowardice.
The equipment of these temporarily recruited peasant archers did not come from the armory of the local lords, but had to be prepared by themselves, so they wore a variety of non-uniform clothing when they participated in battle.
Likewise, their longbows were their own property, passed down from father to son, and therefore varied in quality. This results in their poor shooting accuracy.
To compensate for these weaknesses, archers often gathered into large clusters on the battlefield to launch organized volleys at incoming enemy troops. They were informed that they would also use improvised wooden stakes to hold back horses to defend their positions, thus barely resisting the enemy's attack.
While a peasant archer's pay is pitiful by most standards, they can nonetheless supplement the family's income during slack periods.
For the purpose of making money, the morale of the peasant archers was very low. If there were no knights to supervise and encourage them, archers would often flee when the enemy approached them.
Under the cover of the archers, the charge of the new knights achieved gratifying results. They penetrated all the way to the center of the battlefield before slowly slowing down. They merged with the Snorri vanguard led by the Fatis Knights!
Looking at the land plowed by artillery and the broken limbs that could no longer be seen in the ground, every Bretonnian could not help but admire the power of artillery.
"In the name of lady! What brought you here, Uncle Fatis!" the knight on the Pegasus shouted. He obviously knew Fatis.
"Don't talk about this now! Let's completely destroy the goblins quickly and save the defenders in the castle. That's the main business!" Snorri arrived on a blue sheep.
Seeing that the entrance to the valley that must be passed through for retreat was blocked by human reinforcements, the night goblins under Sanlac Castle began to fight against the trapped beasts.
Under the command of a night goblin shaman who was waving a staff and screaming strangely, they charged at the city wall like crazy. This was a battle for time.
Every night goblin knows that only by rushing into the castle and relying on the walls that originally blocked them to organize a defense and wait for reinforcements can they have a chance of survival.
Similarly, the human defenders on the city wall also knew that the battle had reached the most critical moment. Although they were exhausted and close to their limit, they still waved their weapons vigorously in an attempt to drive the goblins off the city.
"Fire! Shoot under the city wall!" This was Snorri's voice, and he shouted to Bloxon, who was commanding the long-range troops.
"Guys, hold on, in the name of lady, I'm here, Maldini!" The Pegasus knight who led the reinforcements drove his mount into the sky. Seeing the handsome Pegasus spread its wings, Snorri's eyes were a little straight. , he suddenly felt that the lamb under his crotch was dwarfed by comparison.
Bloxon loaded two tracer bullets into his double-barreled rifle. They brought two yellow lights in the night sky, lighting up the night sky in front of Sanlac Castle. This is a common method used by engineers to help shooters correct their aiming targets in insufficient light or darkness.
However, this is also a double-edged sword, because it will also expose the engineer's position and attract a wave of firepower, so it is generally used when the enemy's long-range firepower is insufficient.
As the dwarves poured out their firepower, the peasant archers fired their bows and arrows again. This time they coated the arrows with flammable grease, and the fire glowed red on the stone walls of Sanlac Castle.
The goblins, who were already demoralized because their boss was shot, suffered another blow. The night goblins were more afraid of light and fire than their counterparts living on the surface, and their last courage collapsed.
"Children of the mountains! Form your formation and block the entrance to the valley! I don't want any dirty dwarf to come out of the valley alive!"
Snorri roared on the back of the sheep. He hoped to wipe out all the goblins here to prevent news of him and the reinforcements from being sent to the main greenskin army.
The dwarves carried out Snorri's orders accurately. They divided some of their troops, changed from the regular dense formation, formed a horizontal line to block the entrance of the valley and pushed inward.
