Chapter 293 Undead Cavalry, charge! (page 12)
"Squeak!"
A corpse wrapped in thorns and vines was scratching at the city wall, and the instinctive desire in the body made it want to rush forward.
Beside him are nearly a hundred companions who are dominated by the same instinct.
Rumble.
The gate of the castle in the distance suddenly opened, and the body shuddered, like a moth that had been chasing the distant fire, and suddenly found a burning fire behind it.
The group of corpses quickly turned and rushed toward the open door of the Iron Wall Castle.
The scene of hundreds of corpses rushing towards them with their teeth and claws open is really shocking.
Inside the Iron Wall Fortress.
The sudden gathering of troops attracted the attention of the residents, but some residents who were temporarily recruited as security forces to maintain order had already built protective walls with hardwood sticks to block curious people.
The crowd exploded as the castle gates opened and the twisting and struggling monster tried to rush in.
The new lord actually opened the gate of the castle. What did he want to do? This is the last line of defense!
"Shield wall!"
Li Qi shouted on his horse that he didn't care what the residents in the Iron Wall Fortress thought, and being trapped here would be a recipe for death.
Hundreds of soldiers set up shields and took the initiative to meet the bodies that rushed towards them.
Boom!
The body collided with the first row of shield-bearing soldiers.
Then the second row of soldiers rushed over and pressed against the backs of the front row soldiers.
Come to the third row!
The multiple shield walls built by the armored soldiers only started to shake slightly, and they successfully blocked the most ferocious attack of the thorn vine corpse.
The shield wall completely established a steel defense line, blocking the corpses from the already open gate of the Iron Wall Fort.
Li Qi pulled out his sword: "Unsheath it!"
Clang clang!
Behind him, 30 light cavalry drew their weapons at the same time and held them high together with Li Qi.
The cavalry's fast horses also got the signal and tapped their hooves uneasily.
"Doo-too!" On the ground, Kuai Ren, who was in charge of commanding, bit the spoon and blew violently.
The sharp whistle sounded rhythmically.
The shield wall infantry, who could only listen to the screams of the corpses of thorn vines in front of them, acted quickly after hearing the sharp whistle.
The shield wall suddenly cracked from the middle, and the soldiers in the middle ducked to both sides.
Li Qi shouted: "Charge with me!"
Whether it was the shield wall infantry blocking the corpse in front or the light cavalry following Li Qi on fast horses, they were full of trust in Li Qi.
Because their lord always said "charge with me" instead of "charge with me".
Every time a war begins, as long as the lord is there, morale will always be high.
While Li Qi rushed out first on his horse, the soldiers in front had already left a path in the middle that was large enough for two horses to pass.
A corpse with thorns and vines found a gap suddenly appeared in front of it and was about to rush in.
The long sword was thrust out with the sound of iron hoofs hitting the ground. The sword stabbed the corpse's head accurately. It penetrated from the forehead and came out from the back of the head. The whole corpse was hung on the sword and pushed out!
The raised horse hooves directly knocked away three or four corpses!
In the current situation, it is not easy for Li Qi to charge out alone on a horse. He can maintain absolute momentum and move forward, but as long as there is strength to drag from the left, right and rear, he is very likely to be dragged to death!
Fortunately, there were three figures behind Li Qi.
Super Knight Lacey, Ghoul Aina and Ayame.
They don't bear the pressure from the front like Li Qi. They only need to develop attacks on both sides of the diagonal front, maintain the position where Li Qi charges, and take the opportunity to expand the range of the attack!
Rumbling, the sound of horse hooves sounded like thunder, echoing in the arched city gate corridor.
Li Qi took the lead, followed by more than thirty cavalry, like an extremely sharp steel gun, easily tearing through the struggle and siege of hundreds of corpses.
Dozens of times the number of their own side, they were so rushed that they were powerless to parry!
This was just a light cavalry charge with the extraordinary being at the head. It was actually able to defeat three to five hundred enemies who were not afraid of death with more than thirty people.
If it was in a plain area, Li Qi would even have the confidence to turn around and charge once or twice, directly destroying all the corpses blocking the gate of the city.
But this was not in line with their original plan. Li Qi led the team on horseback and rushed into the Iron Valley woods without looking back, and soon disappeared.
Most of the thorn and vine corpses at the city gate were attracted by the light cavalry team rushing out, and the pressure on the shield wall infantry at the city gate dropped sharply.
"Dudu——!" Quick Blade whistled.
The soldiers who had just separated to make way for the cavalry quickly filled the gaps in the shield wall, retreating while gathering their formation.
There were still four or five corpses that got in during the chaos, but before they had time to do anything, their heads were beheaded by the soldiers preparing from behind with one sword.
The city gate slowly closed, and the team shrank back into the city until there was a "bang" sound, blocking the bodies that came after them from the door.
Bang bang bang!
Corpses hit the door one after another, but they had missed their best chance to break into the Iron Wall Fortress.
Quick Blade let go of his mouth, and the whistle hung on his chest: "Go back to the city wall to defend! Wait for the adults to come back to support us!"
"Yes!" The soldiers were excited and excited.
The scene where the cavalry easily tore up dozens of times the number of corpses made them full of confidence in Li Qi.
They're just a bunch of dead people. If you can kill them, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Iron Valley woods, small fork in the road.
Li Qi casually struck out a corpse with brute force, half smashing and half cutting it.
There are not many corpses of thorn vines around, but you will always encounter a few.
Li Qi grabbed the reins, rode the horse in two circles, stopped, and said to Lacey Sith and the light cavalry behind him: "Lathy, let's separate here!"
Lacey nodded solemnly: "Yes, sir!"
The team separated at this point, and Lacey Sith led all the cavalry to the Hazel Village in the south, where they would confirm the location of the fire oil mine and also bring the latest news to the people there.
Fire oil will be the best weapon to eliminate the remaining corpses of thorn vines.
Quick Blade leads the remaining soldiers to guard the Iron Wall Fort and stabilize the internal order. Without control, the Iron Wall Fort will definitely cause problems and must be defended.
As for Li Qi, there were only two corpses around him.
To fight with corpses, of course you can only use corpses.
Li Qi conveyed the message through his spiritual power and asked the corpse ghost Guy to rush over with 200 elite corpse teams. After gathering all the strength, he went to Beech Village to touch the red-dressed female corpse.
The best gathering place is Lilac Village, which can be reached by walking in about half a day.
"Ayame" Li Qi turned to look at the Necromancer: "Get a few undead together first."
Ayame's eyes turned to the corpse whose head had been chopped off by Li Qi's sword just now.
The flesh and blood of the corpse dripped down like melted wax. The skeleton of the mercenary in leather armor got up, as if he was not used to it. He twisted his body twice, and his two ribs, which were already dangling at all, broke and fell.
The skeleton soldier didn't care, but bent down to pick up the broken sword.
