Thirty-seven Desperate

No one noticed that behind the army, the former Cavalier Captain who had just been dismissed did not run to the logistics forces, but turned a small bend and ran to a clearing field. There, Ruke led his small team waiting for him.

Ruke has seen everything that happened. "Well done, captain. I will definitely fulfill my promise and give you good words in front of Duke Ryan. But now you should leave with me, otherwise someone will probably be unfavorable to you."

They rode their horses away.

Asu Ruffat is dead now, but there is Leo... It doesn't matter. Tonight, he arranged another move and would work. He secretly gave Leo a bottle of wine. As long as Leo drinks it... Once he dies, the coalition forces are headless, and then Ryan can take over the entire army effortlessly. As for Thomas... According to the reconnaissance results of his subordinates infiltrated last night, Thomas will not survive for a month.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the former Cavalier Captain behind him. It was really unexpected that he could handle Ashu Rufate so easily. It was a coincidence and lucky.

Ashu Rufate, if you want to blame, you will blame yourself for your bad life. While Ruk was in a happy mood, he thought. Maybe you didn’t understand what happened until you died. A knight is also a human being, and you can be bribed if you are a human being! It is actually not that difficult to buy a person who doesn’t seem important but is in a critical position.

Of course, this piece can work immediately, which can only be attributed to luck.

"I'm fooled!" This was the first subconscious thought of Ashu Rufate.

They rushed out of the aisle of the city gate and saw not the expected panic and chaotic Paro soldiers, but the neat crossbows shooting. Their heads, fronts, left and right were all ambushed crossbows, and the steel arrows shot down like rain, instantly knocking down half of the knights.

Ashu Rufate understood that he had been fooled. The Paros sent a team of knights, and their real goal was to lure the enemy into the city, annihilate a team of enemies, and boost their morale with a small victory.

The crossbower retreated and retreated behind the spearman. The sharp slits of spears were everywhere. Even if a miracle happened, the knights could break through this neat spear formation, the soldiers were also fenced behind them, and they were not afraid of the impact of war horses.

"Let's go back, retreat!" Ashu Rufate tried to turn around. But the knights were crowded in this narrow city gate. The knights in front wanted to turn around, but the knights behind didn't know what was going on. People, horses and horses were crowded together, and where could they turn back and retreat in a while.

The Paro people could not allow them to retreat! In the rear, a flame suddenly became ignited. It should be that the ground was sprinkled with oil or something else. In short, a wall of fire rose behind the knights. The frightened war horses ran around uncontrollably, and further apart, a huge iron gate was slowly falling.

"Drop off! Dismount! Use war horses to cover it!" Ash Rufate shouted. Because the flames frightened the war horses, riding a horse is not as good as fighting in the infantry battle now. And it is impossible to retreat at this time. Only by working hard to move forward, seize the winch that controls the opening and closing of the city gate, controls the city gate to let friendly troops enter the city, and there is a glimmer of hope.

The knights quickly realized the bad situation in front of them. They dismounted one after another, protected their shields, and rushed towards the spear formation blocking the way forward. Ashrufate took the lead, hid behind the shield, hit the spear tip with the shield, and stuck it on to kill the spearmen with a long sword. Other knights also followed him, using their shields to open the way, and slashed the enemies at close range with their swords and battle axes, in order to break out a bloody path.

At the critical moment of life and death, more than 100 Casilos Knights fully demonstrated their bravery and fearless courage and tenacious fighting spirit, and fought out a way among the Paro spears and halberds, and rushed straight to the room on the left. When the Wolfkou Castle was built, there were rooms for the winch on both sides behind the city gate, but in actual use, only the winch was placed on the left.

The two sides were entangled in a ball, and crossbows and muskets were not helpful for a while. In this battle, the Paro people made full use of their overwhelming advantage in military strength. All the lonely knights were attacked by several or even dozens of enemies and were swallowed one by one.

The situation on Ashurufate's side was slightly better. Under Ashurufate's leadership, the knights rushed forward desperately. Although the Paro people could not resist the impact of the knights on the front, they kept killing the knights behind the temple from the side. The deeper they went into the enemy formation, the more knights were killed. However, after paying huge casualties, they finally tore a path from the thick Paro army.

The Paro people never expected that the knights could rush out of a road from the Paro infantry that was several times more than they were. The door of the winch room on the left was not equipped with much power.

This mistake made Ash Rufate overjoyed. The entrance to the room was not big and there was no one inside. As long as you could guard the room, no matter how many enemies there were outside, you would not be able to rush in for a while.

...

The iron gate that was completely closed suddenly began to rise again, but it stopped immediately after only a small part of the rise.

"Quick, cover the attack in full!" Leo witnessed all this and immediately understood that Asu Ruffat was still fighting hard in the city, and they had seized the gate switch. At least they were already in that room, otherwise the gate would never have been opened slightly. There was no doubt that the Paro and Asu Ruffat were fighting a death fight around the winch.

The drums were loud. Under the leadership of the knights, the militia carried simple ladders and rushed towards the city wall. The archers used the rain of arrows to shoot the city walls to cover the siege troops. Leo did not expect to rely on simple ladders and hooks to capture the castle, but at least they could restrain the Paro people's troops and share the pressure of Ashurufate.

...

"No, I can't push it!" The four knights who pushed the winch had tried their best, but this damn machine didn't move at all.

This is absolutely abnormal. Usually, opening the city gate is enough. In order to speed up, two people are sometimes needed. If you encounter improper maintenance and lack of lubrication, you will occasionally need three people, but there is definitely a problem that four people cannot push.

And at the beginning, the winch could be pushed, but it could not be pushed after just a half-turn. From this point of view, the Paro people should have used some machinery to block the iron chain.

Now, the thirty surviving knights guarded the room. The Paro people couldn't rush in for a while, but the knights had no chance of rushing out. The war drums outside were shocking, and the coalition brigade must be attacking the city wall, but they didn't know what was going on inside at this moment.

"No, I can't push it." A knight looked at the top of the room, where the cables extended. "It must be there, on the halfway wall. I remember there was a hole where the cables could be oiled. The Paros were there, clamping on the cables with something. We couldn't open the door unless we rushed out and killed the person in the locked space."

The battle continued at the door. The infantry rushed in, but a group of knights who occupied the territory were killed. The Paro people were also anxious. They transferred musketeers and first used dense bullets to shoot. Then they rushed in instead of ordinary infantry, but knights wearing heavy armor. Relying on their numerical advantage, they forced the Casillos knights to stand firm and retreat step by step.

In this case, it would be very difficult to rush out, even if you keep it. The knights on the edge of the winch looked at each other, and despairing gazes appeared in their eyes.

"Add a few more people to see if they can be hardened by brute force." Ashu Rufate ordered loudly. He raised his sword and rushed towards the door. But surprisingly, before he rushed, the Paro people retreated, leaving behind corpses all over the ground, including several Paro Knights who retreated more slowly.

This move is confusing because the Paro people were almost able to break through the defense line. They called the magicians? No, it was impossible. Before the war started, Ash Rufate used three magic-breaking scrolls in a row, so the magicians could not think of anything in a short period of time.

But Ashurufat immediately understood why the Paro people retreated. He didn't even have time to take a breath, and burning fire balls were thrown in. I don't know what these fire balls were, but when they hit the ground, they generated a lot of thick smoke, which filled the entire space in a blink of an eye. The thick smoke not only choked people to breathe, but also had abnormal stinging pain in their eyes.

"Cough... cough... this smoke is poisonous..." A knight said struggling. The armor can resist swords and spears, but it has no effect on the smoke. There is no place to hide here. In a blink of an eye, the knights fell down one by one, their faces turned blue one by one, and their noses and mouths were black blood flowing out. The dying knights grabbed their throats hard, but their bodies became stiff uncontrollably. The smoke filled the entire space, and even the four knights who pushed the winch died, and were still working hard to push the winch before they died.

Ashu Rufate also felt very choked, but he found that there was no other discomfort in his body.

"Master, the danger is as high as 75%... You have to rush out, there is no other way." Carrie said in his mind. "You can wait a moment. Now when you go out, there should be musketeers outside, and they will leave in a while."

I don't know whether it was long or short during this period. But when the smoke disappeared, the Paro people rushed in again.

"There is one more! Only one left!" The Paro man who led the lead shouted and rushed up with his spear.

Ashu Rufate's reaction was much faster than he expected. The magic sword cut off the spear's head, and then the second sword cut off his head. But in this short moment, three Paro people rushed in. One person could not defend it. Although one Paro soldier after another fell under the sword, Ashu Rufate was still forced to retreat step by step.

Twenty Paro soldiers had rushed in and besieged him. There were no one else behind him, but Ashu Rufat knew that as long as they ran out and shouted, there would be a constant stream of reinforcements.

"Master, you must use magic..."

The effect of the Demon Breaking Scroll still exists. The Magic Wind is in chaos. At this moment, using magic is probably going to be killed by the reaction force of the magic. But Ash Rufat immediately realized what magic Carrie was asking him to use. The black magic does not come from the Magic Wind, but comes from the energy accumulated in his body. The Demon Breaking Scroll can make it invalid, but cannot make it backfire.

But if the bodies of the dead knights are awakened, it will be a blasphemy of these heroic knights who died in battle.

"Master, think about it, what is their dying wish? It's not blasphemy! You don't need to urge them to do what they don't want to do." Carrie explained in his mind.

A Paro man behind suddenly screamed in fear because a dead man suddenly grabbed his foot. Then the dead man climbed up, staggered close to him, and stuck his neck with his cold hands. The shouts spread immediately, because many dead men climbed up and entangled with the Paro soldiers.

Asu Ruffat took the opportunity to rush out. There were not many Paro outside, so as long as he could kill the one with the card, he could...
