Chapter 652: Shield of the Alliance

For more than ten consecutive days, Heslamo would try to attack once every morning. The best result was that only three or five people rushed to the top of the city.

In more than ten attacks, he tried sneak attacks, concentrated breakthroughs, and leading charges, but unfortunately none

of them worked. The defense of the city headed by Li was flawless.

"Go around."

The merchant Husaifit gritted his teeth and said, "Go around this damn city, grab people and livestock, and don't waste time here."

There are only more than 3,000 people left of the 5,000-strong army. On the battlefield under the city wall, countless of their own soldiers were nailed to the ground by long crossbow arrows, which were clearly visible at a glance.

"Go around, if we are surrounded..."

Heslamo wanted to object, but the merchant Husaifit was very persistent.

"Siege warfare is difficult to fight. If it is on land, we are not afraid, their big shields can't stop our warriors."

The merchant Husaifit was already a little neurotic, and he would not allow the team to stand still.

This eastward advance was a battle that exhausted all his financial resources, and half of the military force was lost in the desert.

Here, when they were about to capture a city, they were stopped by the damn people who could speak their language.

And some people in the army have already proposed to return to the west, even Heslamo and others have such an idea. How can he not be anxious and neurotic?

At this point, he will not allow anyone to talk about retreat.

"The warriors don't want to go too deep. This place is not like what God Hermes said..."

The leader of the travelers was about to object, but the merchant interrupted him again.

"Then how do we face the God when we go back?"

He asked the leader of the travelers loudly: "Do you think the God will listen to your explanation?"

The leader of the travelers was silent. He couldn't say anything to discredit the God.

"Then go deeper."

The herdsmen leader said: "Seize more war horses and mobilize the mobility. Even if we can't beat them, we can at least run away."

Heslamo glanced at him and said nothing.

Among the four people present, who didn't know that the enemy had wolf riders, and there were a full ten thousand wolf riders.

It is almost impossible to avoid the pursuit of such a huge wolf rider on this prairie.

But they also knew that there were not many options. If they went back like this, the God would definitely not be satisfied.

"Let's go."

In the end, Heslamo could only agree, not because he was succumbing to the merchants or the herdsmen leaders, but because the

expedition to the east was the order of the gods. The idea was reached, and the army set out the next day, bypassing Xiliang City and heading east.

"As expected by the Marshal, the herdsmen in the east have already been transferred away. They will not see anything on the way east."

Zhuma looked at the army heading east and said to Kui.

Kui smiled and looked at Zhuma and said, "They are leaving, and we are leaving too. Xiliang City will be handed over to you. Is that okay?"

In the past few days, Kui also had a long talk with Zhuma. Based on his performance in the foreign invasion and his respect for the alliance, Kui promised that he could continue to stay in Xiliang City.

The Human King's army and the Alliance's army will not attack Xiliang City, but at the same time he must eliminate his ambitions.

The position of the Human King will ultimately be decided by the Human King.

Although Hao does not think that the bloodline inheritance system is good, this is the matter of the human tribe, and he does not want to get involved too much, especially when Taichu does not raise any objections.

"No problem."

Zhuma straightened his body and said while beating his chest with one hand.

Hao nodded, turned around and jumped onto the giant wolf, and walked down the city wall first.

Ten thousand wolves followed closely behind and slowly walked out of Xiliang City.

After leaving the city, the team was far behind the enemy. Li did not deliberately hide his tracks, and the enemy soon discovered them.

"Marshal, the enemy's light cavalry is coming, about a thousand people."

When the spy reported the news, Li already knew what he said.

Because of the existence of the Woo-woo machine, the news reported by the spies is usually a little late.

But this form is still not cancelled, because the Woo-woo machine still has various problems, and many times there will be poor communication or other failures.

"Retreat, pull the enemy to a place far enough away, set up a position, and make contact."

Li passed down the military order, and then let the generals below operate the team, and he took out the map and looked at it again.

The enemy turned around to meet the enemy, this was something that had been guessed a long time ago, but where exactly they would turn around was still unknown.

I had no intention of engaging the entire enemy army, so I could only pull the enemy infantry and cavalry apart and fight a wave of enemy cavalry.

When fighting against cavalry, the choice of terrain is very important. Although several places have been determined before, I still have to look again.

After repeated consideration for a while, I finally did not change the designated plan and followed the team all the way back to a hillside.

Five thousand wolf cavalry dismounted, with giant shieldmen in front, and long spearmen and archers lined up in the back.

One thousand wolf cavalry served as the rear army, and the remaining four thousand wolf cavalry were divided into two to protect the left and right wings.

"Will the enemy dare to charge?"

asked his think tank at the back of the giant shield formation.

"They probably will, after all, they want to test our strength."

The think tank thought for a moment and said without hesitation.

He nodded. He thought so too, but he was not sure whether the enemy would charge the giant shield formation or the left and right wolf riders.

Soon, the enemy appeared in sight. They stopped far away, hesitated for a while, and finally attacked the Wolf Riders on the left.

He shook his head, with a look of helplessness in his eyes.

It seemed that the performance of the giant shield on the top of the city made the enemy a little frightened, so they ignored the infantry and went to attack the Wolf Riders. However,

he did not want to let the Wolf Riders fight to the death. He directly led some of the giant shield soldiers to move to the left and adjust the formation at the same time.

The enemy was not far away, and the charge did not allow He to adjust the formation on a large scale.

But Li was not anxious. Although the alliance had not fought for many years, there were military trainings every year, and the army was already well trained.

For others, it was difficult to change this situation, but for Li's team, it was not difficult.

Not long after, the left side of the square array was redeployed with large shieldmen, and outside the large shieldmen, there were still two thousand wolf riders.

When the enemy rushed forward and the two met within three arrows' distance, the wolf riders began to enter the air raid left by the large shieldmen.

Amid the rumbling sound, the wolf riders ran through the infantry team at full speed, and when they all disappeared in the square array, the large shieldmen raised their large shields and the formation was formed again.

Now, the herdsmen leader faced two choices, one was to charge and run towards the square formation, the other was to choose to roam and ride towards the thousand wolves behind the square formation.

While running, the herdsmen leader thought for a moment and rushed straight towards the square formation.

Seeing his choice, a smile appeared on his face.

"Shield."

He roared, and the sound spread all over the place.

"Bang, bang, bang."

The shield bearer raised the shield and knocked it to the ground, which could allow the sharp bottom of the shield to penetrate deeper into the ground, and at the same time make the shields tighter.

"Bows and crossbows are ready."

He stared at the enemy. When the locals entered the attack range of the crossbow, he did not let the crossbow attack, but continued to wait.

He did not give orders again until the enemy entered the range of the arrows.

"Shoot."

Following his order, bows and crossbows were fired in unison.

The bronze arrows shot by more than 2,000 archers rained down on the enemy. These light cavalry had no armor, and the shields in their hands were mostly made of wood, so they could not defend themselves at all. All

they could rely on was their own fighting spirit to resist the arrows, but even so, they could only ensure that the arrows would not penetrate deeply into the body.

If it was a critical part such as the throat or head, there was a possibility of death even if it did not penetrate deeply. What

terrified them the most was not these bronze swords, but those crossbows.

Crossbows shot from the city wall could only shoot one person from a high position, but if shot on the ground, they could penetrate a row.

Each crossbow arrow can hit at least one enemy. Some are lucky and can even penetrate two or three enemies.

"We need to invest more in large crossbows in the future."

He couldn't help but say to the think tank beside him.

In the battle on the top of the city and this battle, everyone has seen the role of large crossbows. In fact, these think tanks also know this truth without his reminder.

After several shots, the enemy finally came in front of him. He stepped forward in person, removed a large shield, and held up a turtle shell to fill in this position.

"Totem power, release."

Following his order, all the warriors in the front row released totem power.

Their power is all the spirit of Baxia, and as soon as the power of the Baxia spirit appeared, it surged into the shield, and the shield was also wrapped in this power.

This is not over yet. The tortoise shell in the hand of Kui in the middle vibrates, and spiritual energy surges out and begins to fill the nearby Baxia spirit.

This is what Kui discovered during a training session. The shield array with his personal participation can breed a special power.

Kui calls it the Shield of the Alliance.

The defense of the Shield of the Alliance is extremely strong. Shi once tested it himself. If there are enough people, it can even block his attack.

Of course, this requires more than a thousand people to hug tightly together, and then use the tortoise shell to block in front. Even

so, it is already a very remarkable power, so facing the enemy's charge this time, Kui is very confident.

The herdsmen leader also saw the changes in the enemy formation, but he didn't know what kind of power it was, nor did he feel the presence of divine power in it, so he was not afraid.

As long as it wasn't a god, he felt that he could break through.

Then, the confident herdsmen leader, Casseldo, accelerated again and was the first to rush into the enemy formation.

No, not rushing in, he was just the first to rush in, and the position he chose was exactly where the enemy was.

So, a tragic scene appeared.

The warhorse rammed into the shield frantically, with a rumbling sound, the warhorse was roaring, and the herdsmen leader on the horse was stunned, and his whole body flew out, and then the warhorse rammed into the tortoise shell.

The huge tortoise shell was like a city wall. When they hit it, they couldn't even feel the tortoise shell shaking.

The herdsmen leader was thrown to the ground, but before he could get up, the cavalrymen behind him followed.

"Bomb, bomb, bomb..."

The continuous impact made the shadow on the Alliance Shield shake. There were even waves in the power, which showed how fierce the enemy's impact was.

But even so, the Alliance Shield was still strong. The entire shield formation did not collapse or retreat.

More than a thousand cavalrymen stopped in front of the big shield. In front of the team, people and horses fell and wailed.

Many warriors were stabbed by their companions' swords when they fell, and blood was all over the ground.
