Chapter 269 White Rose Cecilia (Two in One)

Bai Xiaowen saw the other two infantry phalanx leaders of the third line of defense.

These two infantry phalanx leaders are also the lords of the two northern territories, but their titles are higher than Bai Xiaowen.

The tenth male lord, named Julien, is a viscount, an elite template. His own strength is average, and he can become an infantry phalanx commander, mainly because the number of soldiers recruited in the territory is enough, reaching a scale of more than 500 people, which is comparable to Bai Xiaowen.

Another lord, a woman, still very beautiful, named Cecilia, also a viscount. Her figure is very good, the front is convex and the back is warped, and the silver flashing armor only covers the important parts for the sake of lightness in battle, leaving a lot of room for fantasies.

The same Viscount, this woman's strength is much stronger than Julien, and she is the leader template. She has dozens of elite knights under her command, and each knight has a warhorse and armor (this is very important), in addition to hundreds of guards, which constitute the main lineup of the nineteenth phalanx.

Although the two greeted Bai Xiaowen out of aristocratic etiquette, their attitudes were relatively reserved, and they were a little lukewarm towards Bai Xiaowen.

The reason is very simple. Bai Xiaowen is a baron in the district, and his soldiers are also mixed. How can He De become the commander of the third line of defense?

The two of them must be dissatisfied with being ridden by Bai Xiaowen.

However, despite being dissatisfied, Lord Julien did not show much dissatisfaction, but only perfunctory words, such as "will definitely cooperate with the battle" and so on.

On the contrary, the female lord Cecilia made a clear statement: "Although I have great respect for His Royal Highness, I still think that appointing a little white face with no hair as the commander is really a joke. In battle, I will Staring at you, if your orders are inappropriate, don't expect me to carry them out."

Bai Xiaowen frowned and said, "If you are not satisfied with His Royal Highness's order, you can go to the Black Rock Fortress to meet him in person and ask him to replace me. However, as long as I am in the commander's position, you must give the battle order. Obey. If you refuse to obey my orders, I will report truthfully to the prince after the war."

"Then go and report. I won't let my soldiers follow the random instructions of a rookie without any military experience." Cecilia turned around and left, her hips twisted under the white cloak, and she left.

Lord Julien was a little embarrassed when he saw the atmosphere, hehe smiled, and smoothed out: "Baron Dior, Cecilia is not to be messed with, she is the most famous thorn beauty in northern Xinjiang, nicknamed 'white rose'. Since her After her husband passed away, she inherited the fief and title according to her will, and many people have tried this pretty widow's idea, but without exception, all of them have been disappointed."

"White rose? This is a common flower at funerals in Beijiang. This nickname is not very pleasant." Bai Xiaowen said.

"Yeah," Julien said with a lingering thought, "you must know that the people who were rejected by the 'white rose' were all good-natured guys. For this reason, Cecilia's territory was under a lot of pressure, and even bandits were rampant... … Some gangsters were even specially ordered to do damage in the past.”

"However, in just a few months, Cecilia stabilized the situation. She shot the leaders of several robber groups with her own hands, and even sent their heads to those who were suspected of being the mastermind behind the scenes, along with a bouquet of white The rose as a funeral flower... Since then, the nickname of the white rose has been called."

Lord Julien finally concluded: "So, don't take what she said to heart. In fact, even if you report to His Royal Highness, it is of little significance... In this extraordinary period, His Royal Highness will not just withdraw. Lose an infantry phalanx commander, especially a powerful faction like White Rose. Listen to me, let’s just pass by, the front line of defense will be lost sooner or later, and when the guards under him are dead, we will return to the Black Rock Fortress to enjoy the happiness.”

Bai Xiaowen twitched the corners of his mouth: "It makes sense."

In fact, Bai Xiaowen didn't know that Prince Nicholas would not replace the generals casually,

What he said before was just the attitude that a new commander must have.

As for the little widow Cecilia... just educate her on the battlefield.

After an unpleasant, but not torn face-to-face meeting with the commanders, Bai Xiaowen formed a phalanx of the 17th infantry under his command, with the old leading the new. Every fifty people formed a team, a total of 13 teams, and each team had An elite is the captain.

Bai Xiaowen started a spiritual connection, and commanded the troops through these captains. Each team only looked at the captain's flag, marched, stopped, retreated, and detoured. After a simulation drill, it seemed like it was the same.

However, when they actually went to the battlefield, those newly recruited civilians would definitely not be able to be so calm. This is also the reason why Bai Xiaowen scattered the formations and used the old to lead the new. After a few battles, the recruits will naturally become veterans, and those who cannot become veterans will die.

At dusk, Bai Xiaowen received an order from Prince Nicholas: when the vanguard army of the remnants first arrived, and its footing was unstable, the nine infantry phalanxes of the three major defense lines took the initiative to attack! Destroy the yet-to-be-built Remnant Vanguard Camp!

The prince was supervising the battle at the top of the city, and the execution of the order was still very strong. The commander of the nine infantry phalanx, while secretly cursing the order that sent people to death, shouted loudly to assemble the army, and it was a mess.

After this group of rabble was integrated, they began to advance towards the relics camp at a turtle-like speed.

To say that it is a turtle is really an insult to the turtle. According to the speed of the three infantry phalanxes in the first line of defense, each step only moves a few centimeters, which is slower than that of a snail.

The remnant camp has already been prepared. Half-orcs armed with war spears rushed out of the orcs toil, without a formation at all, howling and rushing towards the infantry phalanx of the combined human army.

Seeing this scene, the three phalanxes of infantry in front stopped moving, holding swords and shields and other weapons and waiting in place, with a sense of "moving like a mountain".

The charge of the remnant half-orc lancer was like a howling ocean wave.

The three infantry phalanxes on the first line of defense are like castles on the beach...

Crying and scolding sounded almost immediately, Bai Xiaowen stood on the back of Anger Claw, with his eyesight, he could almost clearly see the battle process. A half-orc spearman poked his spear out without any fancy, straight through the wooden shield, and stabbed the person hidden behind the wooden shield to a cold heart.

A sword slashed from the side, leaving a bloodstain on the shoulder of the half-orc spearman, but he didn't care at all, but instead aroused his ferocity, roaring, holding the spear in both hands and pushing forward vigorously , pushed the penetrated human soldier more than ten meters back, and plowed two deep trenches on the ground with his feet.

The same situation happened elsewhere. As soon as they came into contact, the formation of the infantry phalanx of the first line of defense of the Human Coalition Army was declared scattered.

Of course, not all the human coalition forces are weak chickens, there are also some elites, roaring and wielding great swords and heavy shields to slash the enemy. However, the ratio of battle losses between the two sides was still astonishing. According to Bai Xiaowen's visual estimation, it was only possible to replace one half-orc spearman with the death of an average of four to five human coalition forces.

Fortunately, in the first contact battle, the Human Coalition Army had a numerical advantage, and the battle fell into a frenzy.

The dull drum sounded, and suddenly two black waves rushed out between the camp roads that the survivors were building.

Two orc wolf cavalry, wielding machetes join the battlefield!

The Orc Wolf Cavalry is one of the main arms of the Orcs. It has a fierce temperament and aggression like fire. In terms of explosive power, it is stronger than the elite cavalry of the Human Race. However, the wolf cavalry cannot run long distances because of the limited endurance of the wolf mount, which is also its disadvantage.

The remnant camp released the wolf cavalry at this time, which was to play its advantage.

The two wolf cavalrymen were like two red-hot iron pestles, poking into the infantry formation of the human coalition army. Wherever the machete went, the heads rolled. And the fierce Warg was biting and biting, and many human cavalry horses retreated in fright.

The cavalry, which represented the backbone of the human coalition army, were defeated, and the sword and shield players and spearmen at the bottom were even more vulnerable. The front team affects the back team. Once the morale is lost, it is like toppling dominoes, and the consequences must be quite fatal.

Roughly estimated, the two wolf cavalry, with a total of less than 200 people, can play a role in controlling the situation of the battle, causing the first line of defense with a total of nearly 2,000 people, and the three major infantry phalanxes to retreat. That's the horror of the cavalry charge.

At this moment, a clear female voice sounded.

"Forty-five degrees, projectile!"

It was Cecilia, the white rose. She was riding a tall white horse, with her rapier pointed in the direction of the orc wolf cavalry.

rustling!

The sound of breaking the air sounded, and the archers under Cecilia, under the orders of dozens of white armored knights, bent their bows and shot!

The thrown arrows fell like raindrops, and the penetrating force was quite strong. It doesn't matter if the orc wolf cavalry is hit by one arrow, they can still charge with injuries, but two arrows and three arrows are too much to bear. Especially after the Warg was injured, the speed dropped sharply.

However, at this time, the wolf cavalry was chasing and killing the human coalition army on the first line of defense, and the two sides were very close. Although the angle of Cecilia's projectile command was very precise, some of the arrows still landed on her own body.

The three lords of the first line of defense cursed one after another.

"Cecilia! Stop your shooting, I'm friendly!"

"Enough! More compatriots died under your arrows than under the hands of orcs!"

...

However, no matter how angry she was, the rapier pointed out by Cecilia never took it back. The archers under her command are also shooting non-stop.

Li Shuyi saw it, and said with some admiration, "She's an iron-blooded female general, so cool."

Bai Xiaowen: "I just want to know, she has been in this position...Aren't her arms sore?"

"..."

Li Shuyi rolled her eyes at Bai Xiaowen: "Okay, should we act as well? Prince Nicholas is watching, and now the limelight has been stolen by Cecilia."

Bai Xiaowen looked back at Prince Nicholas, who was in charge of the battle, and showed a smile.

"Don't worry. It's not yet time."

...

Under the interruption of the arrow rain, the orc wolf cavalry finally stopped charging. The defeat of the first line of defense only disrupted part of the formation of the second line of defense, and did not lead to a complete rout.

At this time, Prince Nicholas's second order came again, this time the order was very brief, only four words——

"All troops charge!"

After receiving this order, several lords were stunned. It has already suffered a lot, and the elite army of the empire in the fortress has not been seen to fight.

Some people can't help but have the idea of ​​being thick and black. Does Prince Nicholas want to fight all these mud-legged recruits at one time to save rations?

Some people are reluctant, but people like Lord Julien don't care. If you fight it, you will fight it out, and you just have nothing to do and go back to the Black Rock Fortress to hide.

In any case, Prince Nicholas at the head of the city is still supervising the battle, and no one dares to disobey the orders he issued.

The nine infantry phalanx, after a brief reorganization, began the second attack. This time, even Bai Xiaowen's third line of defense joined the battle.

On the road of the remnant camp, groups of half-orc spearmen poured out like a tide, among them were troll headhunters. This is the elite among the survivors, a real elite template. It seems that the commander of the remnants is also annoyed by the harassment of the human combined army, and he wants to teach the human combined army a lesson to remember.

"Wow wow..."

A tall troll headhunter stabbed with a spear condescendingly, and killed several soldiers of the human coalition army one after another. The [Furious] state on his body has been superimposed as many as 3 layers, and his shots are more and more like the wind.

The troll headhunter even grabbed a human coalition soldier in simple leather armor, bit it down with his long fangs mouth, and forcibly ripped off a large piece from the opponent's body. The flesh, chewing with blood, is simply a ghost in hell, with a terrifying image!

The surrounding human coalition soldiers were frightened and fled, only a knight with a top helmet, roaring slogans such as justice must win, and launched a counter-charge. However, the troll headhunter grinned, bit his finger and smeared it on the war spear. After chanting a word, the war spear was poked out with blood!

【Blood Assassination】! The knight was directly pierced and fell off his horse.

The same scene also appeared in other places. This time, the human combined army was even more unable to bear it, and they went backwards.

At this moment, a horn sounded.

From the horizon on both sides of the battlefield, two cavalry teams suddenly appeared! These two groups of cavalry, both under the banner of the Gorse Empire, launched a charge from the flanks to the remnant camp!

In front of one of the cavalry squads was a knight in azure-blue armor with a lion-patterned cloak behind him. He held a warhammer that flickered with thunder, and every time he swung it, he would surely take away the life of a remnant soldier. He was unstoppable! 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit our school
