The two Rick knights breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Snorri's decision to send troops to support them. Just now, they had been worried that the Supreme Prince in front of them took out a book of hatred from his pocket, and then read it about Dieter IV. While using the war hammer in his hand to open the door to the two of them against the provisions of treachery in the world.
But their worries were unnecessary. After all, after going through time travel, Snorri himself just regarded Dieter IV as a normal betrayer.
But Snorri is the most popular dwarf at the moment. In the eyes of all the people in the empire who are related to the dwarves and know Snorri's story, he is undoubtedly the biggest sufferer of Dieter IV's betrayal.
Just today during the day, when he heard that the visitor was Prince Snorri, Viscount Thomson brought his Rick Knights and Great Swordsmen out to greet him. Such a scene made Snorri mistakenly think that it was for him. Attention, but what he didn't know was that this attention was on the other side.
In Viscount Thompson's own view, Snorri was probably an extremely conservative and stubborn guy. With such an armed convoy under his command, it was entirely possible for him to capture Helmgart first to collect some interest.
Snorri didn't know what these humans were thinking, and he was cleaning up his team. The escorts of the convoy finally reached the large settlement area, and almost all of them went to relax in the tavern. They did not react quickly to the sudden attack.
"Lead the way! Let's rescue your city lord first!" Snorri couldn't help sweating when he looked at his somewhat staggering subordinates, and he shouted to the two humans.
The two Rick knights' horses had their butts damaged by the stones thrown by the rat men, and their physical strength was exhausted from running all the way. The two knights simply walked with the dwarves.
"Please, sir, no, prince, let's go this way!"
Snorri looked at the two Rick Knights who were stammering and shook his head secretly. In his opinion, this was because the current military resources were still limited to the Rick Territory, which was far from the grand occasion of gathering the empire's elites in one room in later generations.
This is why these two knights did not show the so-called characteristics of "naturally forming the core of the battle line, inspiring ordinary soldiers and letting them know that the blessings of the empire are with them."
But in fact, he guessed wrong. The reason why the two knights performed poorly was mainly due to the pressure from Snorri himself. Snorri's repeatedly polished story spread throughout Bretonnia where there were few dwarves, not to mention the human empire where dwarves were everywhere.
It's already stressful enough to stand in such a rumor, to be the champion of three armies, to be able to fight for 300 rounds with the green-skinned warmaster who demolished his own country's capital, acted recklessly in the country, and caused trouble.
What's even more terrifying than this is that this fierce man also has a deep hatred for his master's master. Not only that, he is also likely to exact revenge - my nickname is the Grudge Bearer, how can my son be any better?
Snorri had no time to care about the thoughts of the two knights. He was worried about the single book of power in his hand.
The human adventurers hired by the convoy did not enter the dwarf settlement, and the settlement was originally insufficiently young and strong. In order to protect itself from the attack of the rats, it was necessary to leave basic defense forces. This resulted in Snorri getting the local The dwarves only have a few symbolic musketeers.
The troops he now has are much smaller than those before Karak-Azgraz. For this reason, he decided not to do any fancy things like dividing troops or reserves, and directly rushed the entire army to the god in the center of the city with artillery. Go to the temple.
Turning the intersection in front of the settlement, Snorri saw a group of ratmen besieging a tavern. The leader was a Skaven warlord. Snorri relied on his combat experience in Karak-Vane and the obvious features of that guy. Better than similar equipment is judged.
"Beard thing! Die, die!" This rat warlord was obviously not surprised by the arrival of Snorri and his party. Perhaps his original mission was to prevent the dwarves from reinforcing them, and the attack on the tavern was just random.
"Charge! Kill these rats for me! Send them to a good life in the next life!" Snorri yelled, and he found that the group of ratmen in front of him was still the same, just a ragtag group of people.
Although he screamed loudly, Snorri was still very cautious. He did not ride the lamb and huddled under the heavy protection of the shield wall of the Anvil Guards. Many instructions are also conveyed by Johnson Strong Shield.
Obviously, the ratman leader underestimated the elite level of this group of dwarves. Although it has some targeted arrangements based on the characteristics of the dwarf troops.
It equipped the slave rats and clan rats with long weapons to gain a little more attacking space, and also provided the ratmen in the front row with tattered shields in order to withstand some of the long-range firepower of the dwarves.
If the dwarf warriors who came were temporarily recruited from the settlement area, then these might still be of some use. After all, no matter how talented the dwarves are, it would be difficult for the tribesmen who have been engaged in daily production for a long time to fully utilize them.
But the dwarf force that the rats are facing now is different. They are all professional soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles, and their equipment is relatively more complete and sophisticated.
The defense line built up by the rat people based on sheer numbers was broken through like a torrent in front of Snorri.
The anvil guards did not have to dodge at all. They ran over the rats directly with their shields. Those rusty spears did not leave even a white spot on the meteorite armor, and even the broken wooden poles that were eaten by insects were also damaged by the strong ones. The tribesmen broke up with a sigh.
Facing the dense muskets and the sharp battle axes in the hands of the dwarves, the wooden shields of these rats had little effect, and were chopped into two pieces along with their bodies.
Almost in an instant, Snorri's team had broken through the three or four rows of ratmen. Such a defensive failure made the rats start to get ready to move and rush up.
The Skaven warlord was also stunned. He felt that his shouts of "die, die!" were still lingering in his ears, and now he was about to die.
"Bedbugs, bedbugs! Hold on! Run away, Prophet, the Prophet will make you look good!" It had no choice but to bite the bullet and lead its Storm Rat Guards up.
Snorri's forces finally felt a glimmer of resistance as the Skaven Warlord entered the battlefield wielding a glowing green warpstone blade.
Although it was very difficult, these elite rat men were finally able to parry two more attacks and take a few more blows.
Snorri calculated the size of Helmgart. The dwarf settlement was in the southwest corner of the city. If he rushed to the central temple from here, his runes should be able to cool down well.
"Earth! Release your anger!" Snorri decisively struck the rune of anger and destruction.
Thanks for choosing a name. It’s so difficult. Tianby monthly ticket. There will be an update during the day.
