Absolutely poor "livestock" poured into the capital of the Kingdom of Denmark Godfrehagen through the collapsed wooden wall in the form of warriors. This new high-mountain city adjacent to the sea was first attacked by slave fighters.

If the Danish king Horlick knew that the so-called soldiers who entered the city first were a group of people who were slaves twenty days ago, he would surely be furious.

The slave warrior did not wear armor, and at most only wore a thick leather jacket, so that he barely protected.

Their weapons are more primitive. On the one hand, the round shield that the Vikings are willing to carry is tied to the left arm, and the right hand generally carries a portable axe, iron sword, and short spear. Their weapons were uneven, and they saw corpses all over the floor when they entered the city. Those corpses lying in the field of feathers or squirming bodies, in their opinion, are all packs of silver coins!

Because the prince also ordered that even a slave soldier, cutting off the head of a Danish soldier would be rewarded with half a pound of silver.

What does this mean?

Once upon a time, their group of slaves was sold to Bornholm for at least half a pound and at most two pounds of silver coins. As long as three or four heads are cut off, the money in exchange can be redeemed from Prince Ross!

At this moment, the slaves are fighting for freedom!

Just to seize this freedom, their next performance was too horrifying.

The axe crazily smashed the neck of the war dead. The heads of the Danish soldiers who were chopped off were stripped of their iron helmets. The strange braids of the dead were used as ropes and were tied to the belts of the slave soldiers.

They were busy cutting their heads and ignored everything, even if the empty field area behind the wall was surprisingly quiet.

Grund in heavy armor followed the slave soldiers. Fifty "iron men" were surprised at the corpses on the ground, but they always had a good sense of battlefield after all battles. This group of mercenaries who took the money and led the salaries I'm not afraid of fighting a bad battle, but I don't want to suddenly die suddenly because of negligence. The dead body on the ground means a lot of silver coins, and the reward for the low-level mercenaries to win a head is a five-month allowance.

Now, those low-level mercenaries wearing ordinary locks saw the slave soldiers busy "cutting their heads to get silver coins", and they couldn't stand it anymore.

The number of mercenary teams entering the city is not very large. When Glend noticed the signs of a breakdown in discipline, he immediately stopped: "Don’t be busy beheading! You can only make money if you survive! It’s too quiet here. Give me a row. Good shield wall waiting!"

While saying this, there were still brothers expanding the groove of the city wall.

Outside of Pokou, the veterans of Arik’s Ross regular army and the Allied Danish Exiles in Ragnar can clearly act under the direction of Rurik.

Of course Arik hopes to enter the city and rob him sooner, even if it is a bad battle. As soon as he was authorized, he led his brothers violently to the breach. In this way, the mercenaries who took the payment were lined up in a shield wall. They were leaning on the breach to build a convex arc array, and they blocked it even if they did not advance. The path of the latecomer.

Arik was tickling his teeth with anger, and screamed: "Grund, you let me go! Only the old Ross people can get the greatest glory."

Grund knew very well that he was the dog kept by Prince Rurik. Because he was born in the army, he and his brothers who hold raven shields must always show loyalty.

He did not dare to offend the prince's eldest brother, let alone offend the prince himself. He smelled the ominous aura permeating the quiet of the battlefield, and simply continued to maintain the array, neither advancing nor retreating, he took Arik's question as deaf ears, and did not respond anywhere.

Unlike the impatient Arik, Ragnar walked vigilantly.

He lightly patted the old comrade Arik on the shoulder: "Brother, I know something about Horik. He won't run away easily. It seems that the city is very quiet, beware of fraud! Maybe Grund has noticed something."

"Bah! I am tall and saw those slaves beheading. A group of slaves are also worthy of taking merit. The dead were shot by our army. Do you want to sit back and watch the merits of the crossbowmen by the slaves?"

Ragnar was just as impatient in his heart. He suppressed his mood to death, and continued to persuade: "Be patient. I think that guy Grund is not going to make way for us. Let's bear it for the time being. See if this guy wants do what."

Behind Ragner are a large number of Danish exiles. They are all strong and strong. Regardless of what happened with the Ross army on the battlefield of Bornholm, everyone now only wants to remove Horrick and him from Frank. All the guys who were brought were chopped into minced meat.

The soldiers squeezed together, but spontaneously blocked the gap, keeping a certain distance from the mercenary iron men in front.

This battlefield vigilance is certainly beneficial, but the mercenaries are also eagerly seeing more and more heads hung from the waists of the slave soldiers.

Look! The slave soldiers generally relaxed their vigilance and began to move forward spontaneously. There are a lot of houses ahead, and there must be more treasures there. Because the prince also ordered that anyone who robs by his ability is his own.

As long as the vigilant slave soldiers are enjoying the great sweetness, that vigilance is gone.

Slave soldiers are like the forefront soldiers on the battlefield. There are as many as two hundred of them. They insist that this group of people gather to form a shield wall, and it is also a typical ruthless group of people who can rampage and domineering in Franks and looting the countryside. They are now completely scattered, and everyone wants to try their best to make money, so as not only to gain freedom, but to become rich.

Slaves are expected to become upstarts, and even become masters and purchase slaves.

They all relax their vigilance, and Grund is also paying attention to their performance.

As the slave warriors went further and further, the vigilant mercenary troops also relaxed. Everyone became more restless, and the entire shield wall was shaking.

Grund judged the situation, maybe the danger didn't exist from the beginning? The Danes have slipped away quietly?

It was not honorable to slip away, but it saved his life.

If you don't let go of the brothers to rob, the baby will be taken away by a group of lowly slaves!

Grund was relieved, the shield wall disbanded, and the iron men marched in a dense formation.

When the mercenaries were blonde, Arik and Ragnar followed up. The soldiers poured into the city one after another with a smile, but the earth began to tremble in unknown.

Because when the slave soldier was cutting his head, the Danish army spies hiding in the dark paid attention to the situation and kept telling the news to the Danish cavalry who was waiting for work.

The King of Denmark is really going to take the lead this time. Although the inner city of the capital has been breached, he found that the frontal hard defense was a stupid trick and retreated in time. Finally, now, the major defense counterattack was finally held in his palm. Heart.

When it was clear that the elite in iron armor officially entered the city and received the spy's news, the Danish king Horlick decided to send a full counterattack.

He drew out his iron sword and called on the cavalry hidden in the lane: "Those Ross people are fooled! Brothers, follow me, charge them, kill everyone. And infantry, follow in the footsteps of the cavalry. Now! Let's go! !"

The cavalry slammed their feet into the abdomen of the horses, and they waited for the fighters to sprint with all their strength.

A short spear moves forward, or a soldier holds axe and sword high. More than 400 horses galloped at the same time, filed out of many narrow lanes, and appeared in front of the slave soldiers who were busy looting.

The chest of the war horse slammed into the blank-minded slave soldier, and even the half-ton behemoth with a horse and a man rushed over, and it was about to crash into powder in an instant.

The slaves who thought they had made a fortune and turned over have turned into a large number of dead souls under the horseshoe, and their corpses are also torn apart by the iron horseshoe...

Just like a mudslide hitting the woods, even if there are slave fighters trying to fight back, it is only when they die that the counterattack is futile.

The Danish cavalry under the leadership of King Horlick launched a rare offensive on the fence. Horrick had no choice now, even if he did so with a great probability of damaging many horses, now is the moment of life and death, even if all the horses are killed in battle.

The slave soldier was hit like a mowing, pierced by a spear, and his head split by an axe. When they choose to flee, they are chopped and killed from behind, or trampled to death by horseshoes.

Under the siege of the cavalry, the two hundred slave soldiers could not organize any counterattack at all, and their death also slightly delayed the cavalry's attack.

Even so, the cavalry still rushed to Grund's mercenary team.

This was a collision between a war horse and an iron armor. At the beginning, armored infantry was collapsed alive by the war horse. A sharp blunt weapon may not be able to break the armor, but the cavalry weighing half a ton, the horseshoes collapsed, and even through the iron armor, people guessed that the internal organs were cracked to death!

Grund himself was knocked down by the horse. He felt that he was stepped on by a horse's hoof. Fortunately, it was not the point that pointed out, but his left arm was numb. He shrank into a ball for a while, and saw that his left arm showed no signs of breaking, and the numbness and pain were intertwined. He still reluctantly stood up, and grabbed the long double-edged axe in one hand.

Some mercenaries were collapsed and vomited blood to death, and some were stepped on.

The cavalry appeared too quickly, and the blind momentum made the mercenary army no time to form a defensive array.

But the mercenaries survived!

The Danish cavalry smashed through the empty field behind the gate full of debris and rushed to the breakthrough of the wooden wall opened by the Ross army. And this is the limit Horrick can do.

The cavalry has become the end of the crossbow. Once they lose their momentum, they lose all their advantages. Facing the iron men in the Russian army, they are a group of fats that need to be slashed.

The axe slashed down, and the horse collapsed. The spear was poked up, and the horse raised its hooves high and threw the rider off. The poor rider was still confused, and his chest was chopped by a big axe.

Grund was dragged to the rear by his subordinates, and other iron men and other mercenaries who were still able to fight took the lead in the front line of resistance to the cavalry.

After the Danish cavalry's charge was completely contained, they immediately adopted Frankish tactics. Their spears were stabs at the heavy-armored Russian soldiers, but the hardened iron spears could not even scrape in front of the deliberately silver-plated steel armor. The weight of the exaggerated width and thickness of the scaly armor is touching. It basically ignores any sharp weapons, and is afraid that a blunt weapon can be tamped, such as a half-ton cavalry stepping on it.

The appearance of the cavalry made Arik and Ragnar angry, and they lamented that they were wise in not rushing in.

The cavalry was also surprised by Rurik, who never dreamed that the Danes would launch a counterattack like this.

"Slingshot! Archer! Support me through the wooden wall!" Rurik roared frustratedly.

Even though many elites such as Jeflo know that their guys are suffering a rare loss, this support through the wooden wall, won't it hurt the friendly army?

They have proved their hesitation with actions.

This anger made Rick furious: "Our brothers are bleeding! Don't worry about them being injured by mistake, throwing arrows at me! Odin will bless them from being injured by mistake, and now stop the enemy for me!"

He simply set an example, personally manipulated a torsion slingshot, installed the javelin, and fired it in a low-charge state...

Just as Rurik in the rear was preparing to provide fire support, the infantry from the Kingdom of Denmark came in a row.

The cavalry suffered a great loss, and a famous cavalry was being attacked by the Rus.

The King Horlick of Denmark, who was staying behind the cavalry, was pleased to see his infantry rushing towards him, so he ordered the cavalry to retreat immediately and handed over the battlefield to the infantry.

On one side are Danish Viking warriors gushing from various inner city lanes, and the other is Roth Viking warriors pouring in from the breach.

This is the civil war of the Vikings, a group of Gnostic-speaking men hurting each other!

However, they both had deep hatred and hatred for each other. They belonged to two groups that were seriously opposed to each other. Peace talks were impossible from the beginning. This battle must use the blood of warriors to distinguish a victory and defeat, and sacrifice to Odin with the death of a large number of warriors.

After the battle is completed, the infantry fights, and the shields start to collide with each other!

The small empty field behind the already cramped gate was the place where the King of Denmark ordered his troops to review it when it was at peace. It was not big, and the soldiers from both sides of the war were squeezed together like herrings in a sealed can. Stacked.

Many fighters can't even stretch their arms, so they can only stab them forward in a cramped place.

Only those wearing iron armor and holding steel swords will gain an advantage in this chaotic battle.

Look! Tower-like mercenaries don't need shields at all, or they are all shields. Having just gone through a fierce battle with the cavalry, many people are struggling to fight with energetic Danish infantry from the internal injuries after being trampled. They held a double-edged axe with spearheads in both hands, stabs straight ahead, and if they seized the opportunity, they would suddenly chop.

The fighters on the front line fight with swords and axes, and the subsequent fighters use spears to help.

The Danish soldiers were shooting arrows for support, and the Russers were shooting arrows.

It's just that the initial sporadic support arrows of the Russian army began to become denser, and black javelins fell from the sky. Those squeezed soldiers lacked the opportunity to protect their heads with a shield, and were pierced by a javelin and fell to death. A large number of arrows descended intensively, a blow to the Danish army.

Can they continue to endure such attacks?

The Danish fighters at the back of the show kept advancing. They used their shields to each other, enduring the horror of arrows piercing the shields. Because the Danish army still has two thousand people, they cannot be beaten and collapsed in a short time.

Now, a problem lies in front of Horlick, it is really a contradictory problem!

Keep attacking? The terrible arrows of the Ruths seemed to have long eyes. They did not hit the heads of the Ruths who had entered the city to fight fiercely, but instead hit the heads of the Danish army. As this continued to fight, a large number of Danish troops were killed by javelins and arrows before they had time to kill the Rus.

Choose to retreat? The morale gathered by the army will collapse ~www.novelhall.com~ A rout is inevitable. Once the rout is out, there is no chance of a comeback as a monarch.

"No! I can continue to carry it! Ross man! Watch me round your tail from the side door!"

In this way, King Horlick urgently gave a general a major task, making him hold the line in the city. He left another fifty cavalrymen. These people did nothing but stood on the spot and kept on guard, waving the raven flag to show that the king had not left.

Actually? Horrick had already left the small gate facing the west of the city one after another. With more than two hundred cavalry soldiers who had survived fierce battles, he decided to come to a desperate surprise attack.

Two hundred cavalry and two hundred infantry are going to attack the camp outside the city of the Russian army! Especially to break their archer's position!

In Horrick's view, the Russ army would definitely not expect that he would perform such a surprise attack. Perhaps he could directly kill the Russ king and bring this sudden war to an end.

he! The final charge has begun!
