Chapter 180
However, despite the fierce attack of the Kuyel riders, their numbers were too small, and the composite bows they held were less powerful than the light crossbows used by the conscripted crossbowmen.
As the battle continued, after several rounds of mutual shooting, the number of Kuyel riders became smaller and smaller.
Finally, after two more companions fell, a Kuyel rider wearing studded leather armor and a pointed leather helmet on his head could not help but scream.
He suddenly threw the composite bow in his hand to the ground, quickly drew out the scimitar at his waist, and then clamped his legs on the horse's belly, rushing towards the scattered conscripted crossbowmen.
Seeing this, the remaining three Kuyel riders followed suit, drew out the various weapons they carried with them, and followed the companion who led the charge like crazy, screaming and rushing up.
"Nott, Monkron, let them roll down!!!"
Seeing this, Hood shouted without hesitation.
Nott and Kuhn, who were standing not far in front of Hod, heard the shout and understood it instantly.
They quickly put away their shields, reached behind their backs, and took out the javelins hidden in the bags behind their backs.
Then everyone selected the target, exerted their arm muscles, raised the javelins high, and threw them forward with all their strength.
In an instant, ten javelins flew out like arrows from a string, piercing the sky with a sharp whistle.
The javelins flew rapidly in the air, and in the blink of an eye they had passed over the heads of the recruited crossbowmen who were shooting.
In a flash, the ten javelins had approached the four Kuyel cavalrymen who were galloping on horseback.
Faced with the sudden javelin attack, the expressions on the faces of the four Kuyel cavalrymen froze instantly, revealing fear.
You know, the javelin thrown by Nott, Monklon and others, who are fifth-level soldiers, is so powerful that these Kuyel riders can't resist it.
Before they could react, the javelin had already fallen.
With a few dull sounds, ten javelins accurately hit the bodies of the four grassland horses under the crotch of the Kuyel cavalry.
The strong impact instantly pierced through the bodies of these grassland horses, and the intense pain made them neigh, and the sound resounded throughout the battlefield.
Then, these grassland horses pierced by the javelins ran a few more steps under inertia, completely lost their balance, fell to the ground one after another, and raised a cloud of dust.
And those Kuyel cavalrymen on horseback were also thrown out fiercely, and fell heavily on the ground several meters away from the horses.
"Take them down!!!"
Accompanied by Hod's roar, Nott and others immediately strode towards the four Kuyel cavalrymen.
At this time, the four Kuyel cavalrymen who were knocked dizzy had not yet fully woken up, and had no time to make any effective response.
In the blink of an eye, several sharp imperial sabers were firmly placed on the necks of the four of them.
The Kuyel cavalryman wearing studded leather armor was the first to react. He shook his head vigorously, trying to make his muddy head clear as soon as possible.
When he finally saw the situation in front of him, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by anger.
He subconsciously wanted to fight back, but he never thought that he would be greeted by a heavy saber handle.
There was only a muffled "bang", and the Kuyel cavalry screamed, covered his stomach tightly with both hands, curled up into a ball, and groaned in pain.
At the same time, the other three Kuyel cavalrymen gradually came back to their senses from their confused state.
Although the sabers were across their necks, the three men did not show any fear. Instead, they looked fierce and kept shouting and cursing in the Kuyel language.
Although everyone present could not understand what they were cursing, just by looking at the hideous and twisted expressions and malicious eyes on their faces, it was not difficult to guess that these words must be swearing.
Seeing this scene, the hot-tempered Nott was furious, and the veins on his forehead bulged. He could no longer suppress the murderous intent in his heart, and suddenly raised the saber in his hand, pretending to chop down one of the Kuyel cavalrymen.
"Wait, Nott..."
Just then, Wait, Nott..."
Just then, Hood walked up quickly and reached out in time to stop Nott's impulsive behavior.
"Boss, what are these guys doing here? At this time, they still dare to scold us!!!" Nott said.
"Leave them alive. I need to know how they suddenly appeared here."
After saying that, Hood turned his head sharply and looked in the direction of the main castle, frowning slightly: "Why haven't Jeff and the others come out yet?"
ThisAs soon as the words came out, everyone's face changed. Yes, there were only three people on the other side, how could it take so long to finish.
Hod glanced at the four Kuyel captives on the ground who were tied up tightly.
Then he turned his head slightly and said to Yulwus, who was serious beside him, in a deep voice: "Keep an eye on these Kuyel captives, don't let them run away or play any tricks."
Yulwus nodded vigorously to show that he understood.
"You all go with me to take a look."
Then, Hod waved his hand and led the rest of his men to stride towards the main castle.
As the distance to the main castle gradually shortened, a burst of fighting sounded into everyone's ears.
"Boss, the situation seems to be wrong!!"
The burly Monkron frowned, and his pair of big copper bell eyes were full of doubts. As he spoke, he walked in front of Hod and protected him with a shield.
Seeing this, the other robber leaders also reacted and raised their shields high to protect Hood's head and surroundings to prevent the enemy's cold arrows. At the same time, they looked at the main fort in front of them with a serious look.
Hood had no expression on his face at this moment. After thinking for a moment, he took a deep breath and whispered: "Order everyone to be vigilant and enter a state of alert!"
"Orville, let all the conscripted crossbowmen reload the crossbows!"
Then, Hood cast his eyes on Kuhn and said in a deep voice: "Kun, take your two brothers to investigate the situation together, be careful!"
Kun nodded and stretched out his hand to signal the two robber leaders around him to follow him.
Then the three of them held the shield in one hand and the saber in the other hand. The three of them formed a triangle formation and carefully moved towards the main fort.
On the other side, Orville and other surviving conscripted crossbowmen had also completed the loading of crossbows.
They half-crouched on the ground, holding the crossbows in their hands, aiming at every opening in the main fort where the enemy might appear, with their fingers lightly on the trigger, ready to pull the trigger at the command.
