Chapter 597: Siege

The Troll King City in the evening looks extraordinarily majestic in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Dannamu shrank his neck, leaned against the battlements, looked at the vast land in the distance, and was dazed.

The expedition led by His Majesty Okamoto has been away for more than 20 days, and it is unknown whether they have successfully arrived in the north.

If it wasn't for an arrow in the knee, Danamu would have joined this expedition south.

Compared to waiting anxiously for the unknown fate in the rear, Danamu would rather go to the front to fight, even if he died in battle, he would have no complaints.

For a veteran of a hundred battles like him, dying on the bed of old age is a shame.

Tightening his collar, the howling cold wind made the dozens of old wounds on Danamu's body begin to ache.

In the past, the heavily guarded Troll King City was now only left with three or two big cats and kittens, which looked particularly desolate.

There was an indescribable anxiety and annoyance in Danamu's heart, and catching a few recruits with poor military posture was a reprimand.

After venting for a while, Danamu felt a lot more relaxed, but then he felt dull for a while.

After all, those recruits were 12- or 13-year-old hairy boys, and their thin bodies could not even hold their weapons. To ask them to stand guard like regular soldiers, Dannamu himself felt that it was too much.

But what can be done, the trolls who can hold weapons have all gone south with His Majesty Okamoto, and now the Troll King City can only find these half-sized boys to stand guard.

Dannamu suddenly realized that the defeats and slaughter over the years, it seems that the North has almost killed the most elite generation of the troll empire...

If this desperate expedition fails, the future of the Troll Empire...

Dannamu was horrified, and immediately shook his head, erasing the terrifying thought from his mind.

No, the God of War will never fail his followers again.

In this expedition, the trolls will win!

Danamu kept comforting himself, and in a trance, he seemed to hear the sound of the rousing snare drum.

With the sound of the drums, the troll army was invincible, conquering one fortified city after another...

"Lord Danamu, Lord Danamu!"

Dannamu came back to his senses, looked at the panicked soldiers in front of him with dissatisfaction, and reprimanded angrily:

"What are you panicking about? What's wrong?"

The soldier pointed to the direction outside the royal city and reported tremblingly:

"Cavalry... cavalry... cavalry here!"

Dannamu was suddenly shocked, and he rushed to the city wall and looked into the distance.

Although he had not yet been able to see the banner of the rapidly approaching cavalry, he already knew that it could not be a friendly army-because the Troll Empire had no such organized wolf cavalry for a long time.

So, there is only one possibility-

Blood cavalry!

"Enemy attack! Blow the trumpet!" Danamu roared in a hoarse voice.

woo-

The shrill sound of the horn resounded through the Troll King City, and the front of the city suddenly became a mess.

These recruits, who had just been recruited and had not been trained for a few days, were already frightened by the terrifying momentum of the overwhelming cavalry charge. At this moment, their faces were pale and their whole bodies were trembling, and they didn't know what to do.

"Close the city gate! Shut the city gate! What are you idiots doing! Shut the city gate!"

In the scolding of Danamu, the soldiers woke up like a dream, and hurriedly turned the huge winch to slowly raise the suspension bridge.

At this time, there were troll civilians outside the city who had not had time to run back, and desperately shouted for help.

But obviously, the defenders in the city would not care about them.

Seeing that the city gate was closed, Danamu limped back to the city head again, roaring and letting the soldiers bend their bows and arrows, ready to shoot.

At this time, the flag of the cavalry outside the city was clearly visible, yes, it was the blood cavalry!

The last trace of luck in Dannamu's heart was gone, and at the same time, the terrifying thought that he didn't dare to think about before resurfaced irresistibly——

Expeditionary Force, defeated!

Danamu knew that the troll empire was over.

But he still tried his best to boost the morale of the defenders in the city and help them prepare for the battle.

However, he also knew very well that this royal city should not be able to be defended.

Don't say that the cavalry is not good at attacking the city, but that is also based on the fact that there are a large number of regular troops guarding the city.

For these young recruits now, it's fine if they don't pee their pants when they really fight.

Whoosh whoosh!

The vanguard of the Blood Cavalry Army had already arrived at the bottom of the city, and when they came up, they shot at the front of the city.

The dense arrows fell on the city tower like a torrential rain, and a large number of troll soldiers who could not dodge were hit by the arrows and let out shrill screams.

The remaining trolls hurriedly hid behind the battlements, shivering and not daring to lift their heads.

Dannamu was so angry that he whipped with a whip while roaring:

"Idiot! Counterattack! Counterattack!"

The troll soldiers then carefully opened their bows and arrows and shot down the city.

It stands to reason that the trolls occupy the ground from a high place and should be able to easily suppress the shooting of the blood cavalry, but the fact is just the opposite.

The arrows fired by these recruits who have never experienced war are sparse, weak, let alone accurate.

The blood cavalry galloped, running back and forth around the city wall, constantly looking for the outcropping troll soldiers, and then quickly shot an arrow.

Soon, the head of the city was filled with clusters of arrows, fewer and fewer troll soldiers dared to fight back, and the rain of arrows shot down from the head of the city became more and more sparse.

A team of Blood Shadow Guards took this opportunity to quickly rush to the city, and then climbed up with their hands and feet on the ground.

Dannamu at the head of the city also found these blood slaves. He immediately roared and asked the soldiers to give priority to shooting these climbing blood cavalry troops, but at this time, the defenders at the city head were completely suppressed by the arrows of the blood cavalry army and did not dare to emerge. , can't organize much counterattack force at all.

Even if sporadic arrows hit the climbing blood slaves, it would not have any effect on them.

There was even a blood slave with three or four arrows inserted into his skull on his head, and he continued to climb like a nobody.

The troll soldiers who saw this scene were completely frightened.

After these devilish blood slaves rushed to the city head under the rain of arrows the defending army collapsed almost at the moment of first contact.

Blood slaves, monsters with extraordinary strength and no fatal weakness, are simply not something that these troll recruits who have not received formal military training can deal with.

They rushed to the head of the city, like wolves entering a flock, wanton killing.

A large number of troll recruits dropped their weapons and ran around, no matter how much the officers roared, they couldn't stop them.

Dannamu had also collapsed to the ground, a **** opening was cut on his stomach, and his internal organs flowed all over the floor.

But his eyes were still fixed on the blood cavalry soldier who had just been stabbed in the heart by himself, as if waiting for the opponent to fall.

However, until Danamu lost consciousness, he failed to see the scene he expected.

boom!

The suspension bridge with the destroyed winch suddenly smashed to the ground, communicating with the inside and outside of the city.

Teams of blood cavalry troops rushed into the city along the suspension bridge.
