Chapter 243, The Battle of Turis Castle (Part 1)

PS. Thanks to the book friend "Situ Junmo" for the two rewards, thank you very much!

PS2. Two updates today! The second one is at night.

Grismory River, Riverside, Turres Castle.

Boderick, Duke of Boldeiro, was standing on a high city wall. Behind him stood dozens of Poseidon knights. His lieutenant, Sir Howlf, who was also the deputy head of the Poseidon Knights, stood behind him.

The Duke looked around, and all he could see in the distance was the army of vampires, among which the endless army of zombies occupied all of his sight, but these things were not what the Duke was worried about. Even an infantry regiment composed of serfs can easily defeat these walking dead.

What really made Boderick afraid were the Grave Guards of those brigades. These undead warriors wore rusty breastplates, held rusty weapons, equipped with shields and sharp swords, or halberds. The arrows shot by the serf archers could not harm these powerful undead warriors at all, and in melee combat, the serf infantry were no match for these powerful warriors, so Boderick had to rely on the protection of the city wall and the strength of the knights. brave.

The vampire army is large and powerful, but lacks siege weapons. Boderick's army is small, but has high walls and deep ditches. The two sides are at a stalemate here. Every day, the vampire army attacks the city at night, ceases fighting during the day, and reverses day and night. Make human armies miserable, the undead don't need rest, but humans do.

"The undead are coming again." Bo Derick noticed that the zombie army was dispatched again. These walking dead lacked any defenses, so they just staggered forward with their legs. If it was only a small group, the charge of the Sea God Knights could be like tearing Crush them like a rag.

But in the face of tens of thousands of zombie legions all over the mountains and plains, the only thing Boderick can do is to stick to it. Any knight who falls into this vast ocean will inevitably die.

The walls of Turis Castle are tall enough. The white boulder walls are more than ten meters high. Although the undead made simple siege ladders, there are still very few who can rush up the walls. On the broad walls, serf infantry regiments and serf archers They are preparing for the battle intensely, and most of the faces can be seen to be exhausted and malnourished. The sergeants hurriedly ran on the city wall: "Get ready to fight! Get ready to fight! Soldiers, show your courage! Your Excellency the Duke is right here with us." Watch us from behind!"

The serfs had to stand up exhaustedly and prepare to fight. During the day they had to repair the castle, burn the corpses, check the equipment, and there was not much rest time. At night, they had to fight continuously. The long hours of heavy pressure almost made the serfs Malnourished bodies crumble.

"Fight! Fight!" Even so, the serfs still raised their spears, picked up their bows and arrows, and prepared to fight. Even the most cowardly serfs would show great courage when their homeland was threatened.

"Arrow!!"

Thousands of serf archers drew their short bows, and a dense rain of arrows flew from the city wall. A terrifying tide of zombies rushed to the front. The zombies fell in pieces, like cutting wheat.

But there was no joy on Bo Derek's face. The Duke himself knew clearly that these zombies were not dead, but temporarily lost control after being injured. As long as the necromancer regained control, the zombies would continue stand up.

The tide of corpses rushed under the city wall like a flood. The Blood Knights and Grave Guards who supervised the battle shouted loudly. Several ladders were turned up from the tide of corpses. There was a Grave Guard standing on the top of the ladders. Need to adapt to gravity.

The first ladder leaned against the city wall, and the barren grave guard standing on the top of the ladder jumped onto the city wall, and several serf archers were killed on the spot with a sweep.

"Close combat!" Bo Derick immediately roared.

"Close combat!" The sergeant on the city wall shouted. The serf archers hurriedly retreated in a mess. Groups of pikemen approached angrily with their spears. They wore simple leather armor, and only a few of them had breastplates.

The dense array of spears charged forward collectively, and the body of the barren grave guard was pierced by seven or eight spears in an instant. He shouted, and then fell down the city wall.

A large number of ranger knights rushed forward, beheading the lonely grave guards one by one.

"One, two, three, push!" Under the command of the Poseidon knight, the infantry forcefully overturned the ladder, and the zombies still climbing on the ladder fell down in pieces.

On the high tower inside the castle, the noose of the trebuchet was constantly turning, and huge stones were thrown out by the swing of the long arm of the trebuchet, attacking the enemies outside the castle. The huge stones could crush every time. Crush hordes of zombies.

In the vampire camp a few kilometers away from the castle, the Blood Red Duke looked anxiously at the Turius Castle that was in fierce battle. He kept yelling, releasing his hatred and pressure. His emotions were filled with rage. God, he was unable to break through Turis Castle.

If you can't break through Turis Castle, how can you attack Bordello?

The flood summoned by the fairy in the lake did have a great impact on the Duke of Connaught. It took the Blood Red Duke several months to raise this army, but a large number of siege weapon workshops and tombs were destroyed by the flood. His army lacked powerful siege weapons, which made it impossible for him to break through Turis Castle.

Dozens of blood knights stood behind the blood red duke, they were the winners of the war, the blood red duke wisely did not act lightly, he was waiting for reinforcements.

The blood knight Meroving is leading hundreds of undead knights here. Meroving was once a Duke of Mousilon, but later fell into an undead and was defeated and cursed by that generation of lake god witches.

It would be too long to talk about the former duke’s depravity and the horrible stories he caused. Like the blood red duke, he had a deep hatred for the knight kingdom. He once killed the knight king with his own hands, but he was still defeated by the Holy Grail led by the lake god witch. Knights.

Now, Morgiana was seriously injured, and Meroving could finally see the light of day again. He was resurrected and became another blood knight.

"Must, capture Turis, must, kill all living people, kill, kill them all!" The Blood Red Duke was left with only fury, but this did not mean that he gave up thinking, and continued to fight for two or three hours. After the attack lost troops and generals, and returned without success, he still ordered to retreat.

The defenders again stubbornly repelled the enemy's attack.

Boderick stood on the castle, the dry night wind and the smell of the undead stimulated his sense of smell. The Duke was wearing a blue and yellow sea mysterious silver chain mail, with a family crest symbolizing the Trident of the Sea God. Zhang, seeing that the tide of corpses had receded, he immediately ordered: "Check the damage immediately, I need to know the loss today."

"Yes!" Immediately, a sea god knight led away.

Twenty minutes later, in the inner castle of Turis Castle, in the cold tower, Boderick sat behind the table with red eyes.

Sir Howl, the deputy head of the Sea God Knights, walked in: "My Duke, today's battle lost nineteen knights and about three hundred serf soldiers, thirty-five sergeants."

The atmosphere in the room was very quiet. Duke Boldro was not in the mood to watch the battle damage. He motioned for Horf to sit down: "My deputy commander, how long do you think we can last?"

"Maybe... a month?" Sir Howl sat down with a wry smile. He was wearing a plate armor made of enamel and turquoise, with many shell decorations on his body, which symbolized the glory he won for the Sea God: "But We will fight on, my lord."

In fact, the Poseidon knights of Bordeaux are not inferior to the knights of the Kingdom of Britannia, and even surpass them. They are as firm as the sea, and they can crush all enemies like a storm in the ocean.

"Heh~ heh heh~" Boderick sneered a few times, and he took out several letters or orders: "Our majesty the king kept emphasizing that I should stand by and wait for reinforcements, but where is his damned reinforcements? My scouts report, Ku Rona shows no! any! signs of gathering troops, instead my new friend Ryan is trying to gather troops, and my old friend François is coming to support me!"

"Winford's reinforcements are on the way, and they are not expected to arrive until noon the day after tomorrow." Sir Holff fetched the scout's report: "But there is bad news, the undead must have also learned that our reinforcements are on the way."

"Get ready, we will face an unprecedented attack tomorrow night." Boderick said in a low voice, Hulf nodded, Jazz hesitated, and then said: "My Duke, do you want to take shelter for a while, tomorrow The offensive at night may be unprecedentedly fierce..."

"Where can I escape? Bodleix? Courona?" Boderick said expressionlessly.

"... Marienburg? My Duke, you must not make mistakes. You are Boldero, and the blood of the Sea God must not be cut off here." Holff's voice sounded in the room.

"I am dead, and my son Federmond, I am old, and death is not a curse to me." Boderick stood up, and the Duke said sternly: "Is this my son?" My fate? Do you know that I am very angry now? Our king did not support me, I am very angry, I am very angry."

"I'm sorry, my lord," Hulff said hastily.

"I won't run away, I won't give in." Boderick stood up, looked at the army of vampires in the distance of the castle, and shouted loudly: "It's time to draw our swords!"

Endless waves of anger flooded the room, and Horf immediately knelt down: "My Duke! The Poseidon Knight will always be with you!"

"The descendants of the Sea God will never be afraid of any enemy!!!"

On the second night, the Duke himself appeared on the front line of the battlefield, holding the golden Trident of the Sea God, and pierced a guard of the graveyard rushing forward: "For Mannan, for Boldro! "

"For the lady!" The appearance of the Duke himself on the front line of the battlefield inspired the serfs' boundless courage. The serfs roared loudly, unleashing their full courage.

The Neptune knights wearing the Poseidon Trident cloak were also dispatched. With shields and scimitars, they brutally cut all the undead trying to climb the city into two, and the graveyard guards suffered heavy losses.

Under the walls of Turius Castle, under the light of the pale moon, the entire castle was plunged into billowing smoke, and the walls on three sides were caught in a tragic war. All the troops except the blood knights were suppressed, and a large group of bloodthirsty sky ghosts and bloodthirsty bat wolves were also sent.

"It's the sky ghost! Pay attention to concealment!" Groups of sky ghosts flapped their huge wings and appeared. They swept across the sky and rushed directly towards the army that was fighting fiercely on the city wall.

"Fire the arrows!" the sergeant shouted, and the serf archers desperately aimed at the bloodthirsty sky ghost.

The bloodthirsty sky ghost flapped its wings to knock down these fragile arrows. The arrow rain released by the serf archers was not enough to kill. They howled and swept across the tower, and then grabbed a group of serf archers and threw them directly from the sky.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

"Something is climbing up!" The sea god knights were fighting fiercely with a large group of barren grave guards, and the lieutenant Orff suddenly shouted: "Duke, be careful!"

Boderick swung his sword continuously and beheaded several barren grave guards and zombies attacking the city. He held up the Sea God Trident, and was about to unleash Mannan's anger. Hearing the shouts of the knights, the Duke himself was slightly stunned. , he immediately gave up the attack and turned to defense. Groups of celestial ghosts swooped down towards the Duke himself. Boderick raised his shield to resist, and the huge celestial ghosts kept hitting Boderick's shield. The Duke, who was under a huge impact, was knocked down and fell on the city wall.

"Your Excellency Boderick!!" The Sea God Knights tried their best to support their Duke, but more barren grave guards climbed up the city wall, and they appeared in groups, preventing the Sea God Knights from approaching.

"Wow! It's a horror beast!" A serf shouted loudly.

In the distance as far as the eyes can see, a huge horror beast flapped its wings and appeared in the night. It looked like a bat magnified dozens of times, with a blue will-o'-the-wisp burning inside its bone-shattered face. The several-meter-long body was swirled by the gust of wind, and swooped towards the city wall.

Boderick knelt down and used his shield to resist the attack. Just as he was about to get up, several celestial ghosts opened their mouths wide open, exposing their sharp fangs, and kept trying to attack the Duke himself. Several sea god knights held up their shields and tridents. On the ground, fighting with the sky ghost, Bo Derick turned his head and saw that the Sea God Trident fell not far away. The Duke himself immediately rolled over and held the Sea God Trident: "The Wrath of Mannan!"

A huge amount of seawater sprayed out of the air, sweeping across the city, the sky ghosts and the barren tomb guards were swept up by the anger of the sea god and smashed into pieces in the seawater.

Bo Derek was manipulating the sea water, a huge claw swung down from the air, hitting the Duke himself, Bo Derek fell to the ground with a scream, and the shield and trident flew out.

It's a Horror! It landed!

The monster landed on the city wall. It opened its mouth, put its feet on the ground, and roared towards Boderick. The Duke himself was lying on the ground, wriggling with his hands and feet, trying to retreat, but behind him was the city wall. There is no place to retreat!

"Duke!!!" The Poseidon knights shouted loudly. Seeing that Bo Derick was in trouble, their eyes were tearing apart, but even the Neptune knight closest to the Duke was about five meters away.

Is everything going to end? Boderick's eyes burst into endless hatred, and he tried to draw his sword, vowing to die with the giant horror beast.

At this moment, near the city wall, a green light lit up, and a green knight flashed out of the green light. He swept across the city wall like a gust of wind, and sparks flashed from the green long sword in his hand.

In the blink of an eye, the head of the horror beast fell to the ground.

"Keep fighting! People of Brittania! Don't give in to the darkness!"

"go ahead!!!"
