Chapter 633: City Breakdown

Not only this tavern, but also the hotels in the city and the narrow streets in the slums of the outer city, figures with weapons appeared one after another.

For this operation, the "Viper Cross" started planning several weeks in advance with the help of the city defense team and the temple guards. The loose and slack management of entering the city made it almost unimpeded for the spies to enter. Under the command of Elvis, it is the elite unit with the strongest average strength in the "Viper Cross".

For this mission, Elvis dispatched almost everyone he could mobilize, and sneaked into the "temple" in batches just after the orc Sauron's team left. twenty!

And the Rosicrucian never knew about it.

One hundred and twenty special operations personnel might not be able to make any waves on the battlefield outside the city wall, but at this moment they became a deadly dagger stabbing from the shadows.

They tore off their disguised identities from various hiding places, divided into two groups, and went straight to the city gate in the other direction of the city, and went straight to the inner city all the way, with tacit understanding and no nonsense.

At present, almost all the troops of the "Holy Temple" are piled up towards the main city gate in the south, because the city wall under attack is basically in this section, so the defense of the other gates can only rely on a dozen or so city defense troops. And when the "Viper Cross" group of experienced elites rushed to the west city gate, they almost killed the city defense army who tried to stop them in one face-to-face, and then opened the city gate without any hindrance!

Elder Dean, who was in charge of the army outside the city, had already made preparations, and waved his hand to let the cavalry, which was waiting for work, rush to the west gate. When the cardinal on the city wall realized that the west gate had fallen, it was too late...

The cavalry troop drove straight in, and even if the defending temple guards rushed over now, it was useless. They could only watch helplessly as this group of armored cavalry crossed the city gate and rushed in through the empty streets!

"They...they want to attack the inner city!"

"Stop them!"

Although you say so, the fall of the outer city is already an unstoppable fact. In the era of cold weapons, the opening of the city gate basically means the complete failure of the defenders, not to mention the current lack of "Rose Cross" troops, not even cavalry. Several, so they could only watch as the West City Gate was opened.

At this distance, if you run to support on your legs, it may take five or six minutes to get there...by then, the daylily will be cold.

The offensive of the main city gate stopped immediately after the west gate was opened, and then all the two thousand soldiers were ordered by Dean to march into the city.

Immediately there was a strange scene: the soldiers outside and inside the city were running towards the west city gate desperately,

One hoped to rush in, and the other hoped to drive out, but the result was obvious. The cavalry unit that rushed in ahead of time directly blocked the support team of the "Rose Cross". rushed in.

Elder Dean, who led the army, did not stop at the city gate at all, and directly drove the large army towards the inner city. The unused simple ladders were carried in one after another, and there was no one to stop them in the empty streets. It took only a few minutes to rush to the closed inner city gate and start the siege!

It wasn't until this time that the pope and cardinals in the inner city realized what a stupid mistake they had made... But now they have no other troops except the more than one hundred guards in the inner city. Deep old guys can't believe it's real.

So far, simple prayer has no meaning. The remaining soldiers all set foot on the city wall to fight, and even the believers who had no combat effectiveness went up. However, as the "Viper Cross" attacked the three gates of the inner city at the same time, the temple guards who were outnumbered soon faced the danger of morale collapse...

The conflict between the two sects has finally turned into a face-to-face confrontation, and the inner city wall has become the last fig leaf of the "Rose Cross".

"It's not over yet..."

Holding a red scepter, the Pope appeared in the center of the church square in the inner city. He had already shown more oldness because of the continuous casting of spells to suppress the "Viper's Kiss", but at this time he had to desperately open the "Holy Shield" magic circle covering the inner city and strike it at the center of the square, The majestic sacred aura rippling, golden light shields instantly appeared around the inner city, firmly blocking the enemies trying to attack like a barrier...

The rest of the cardinals were chanting scriptures in unison, standing around the pope, maintaining the shield with their own mana.

"Hold on! We must wait until reinforcements arrive!"

*****

Seven kilometers away, the battle of the "Crusaders" has ended.

Surrounding and suppressing the temple guards who have no will to fight with several times the force, the mercenary knights feel no pressure and even want to fight a few more times... because the equipment of the temple guards is so good: horses, armor, weapons The weapons, secondary weapons and even the jewelry carried on the body are incomparable to the knights of the "Crusader".

The hedge knights live a life of hunger and food all day long, while the temple guards are supported by the silver coins offered by the believers. This difference in class makes the hedge knights jealous, so they are merciless , Almost all the temple guards who were caught were "missed" and killed, and then they robbed their equipment.

Cardinal Claude of the "Viper's Cross" turned a blind eye to this. Instead of stopping him, he led his own guards and began to advance towards the "Holy Temple"...

"These bastard Rosicrucian bastards, they and Efta have used all kinds of schemes against us, and now it's time for revenge!"

"Rush forward! Rush into the temple! Everything there is yours!"

"Their gates have been opened, and no one can stop us now!"

The team that was hacking and killing was attracted by the shouts, and quickly gathered.

Some of them are truly ruthless and have no moral lower limit, and the other group originally abided by the rules, but when the "rules" were broken and they were not held accountable, they also quickly changed their roles, and together they became a group of people who hovered around the world. Vultures of the battlefield...

Listening to the discussions around him, Rody felt that the battlefield he was in was really full of primitive flavor. Before the beginning of the war, these fellows who had escaped from the "serf" class were full of chivalrous morality before the war, but they were like wild dogs in the war. They would gather wherever there was fishy smell, and tear up rotting flesh without realizing it. There is something wrong with your own behavior.
