He was finally dead, but his eyes seemed unwilling to close for a long time.
He blocked the undead soldiers outside the phalanx. His small body was actually stronger than his broken crystal shield.
The huge mistake he made was mended by his comrades.
His position was strengthened in defense. He used his life to tell his comrades where the weakest point was. His sacrifice was worth it.
Bunduk no longer recognized the dead young man. The goal of the conversation he had with him in the afternoon was to use the young soldier to perk up the Swadian Sergeants, but in the young man's heart, Commander Bunduk would always be the good commander who looked dignified but was the most approachable. With this thought in mind, he would die without regrets.
Bunduk did not even look at his corpse on the ground. He mercilessly stepped over it and took the life of one of the undead soldiers in front of him.
The bell at midnight had already rung.
Bunduk calmed down. The biggest reason why Commander Pam failed was because of the huge change that happened after midnight. The Elf King had once mentioned to him that it was a group of undead soldiers with extremely powerful jumping abilities, with just a little bit of force, they would be able to jump from where they were to a height of more than five meters above the ground.
This was a height that even the most powerful warhorse in the world would not be able to jump to. If the height was adjusted according to the body ratio of a flea, then the undead soldiers would be equivalent to fleas the size of humans. How would they overcome the powerful gravitational field?

What exactly was the reason that allowed an undead soldier to jump to such a height.
While he was thinking, the undead soldiers had already approached him. Jumping three feet high was indeed powerful. At this moment, the undead soldiers were all standing on tall trees. Their hands were holding large knives and their limbs were very long, especially their hands, they were even longer than their bodies, which gave them more attack range.
Bunduk ordered loudly, "Everyone, change your formation!"
At this moment, the square formation changed under Bunduk's order. In addition, shields were also added to protect the top of their heads, protecting the entire square formation.
The undead soldiers looked at the soldiers with mocking expressions. Bunduk looked at their expressions and felt mixed emotions. Commander Pam must have noticed that these undead soldiers actually started to have expressions, moreover, the way they managed their expressions was almost the same as humans, especially when their mocking expressions were similar to humans. Bunduk instantly recalled the time when he was a young soldier, that captain also had the same mocking expression on his face. The expression of this undead soldier was so similar to his.
"Everyone, be on guard. Don't let the undead soldiers have any opportunities to take advantage of us."
The young Swadian Sergeants answered Bunduk's orders in unison.
They were all very confident. Even though many of their comrades were defeated, they still believed that as long as they were confident and showed their fearless spirit, these undead soldiers would be like fragile puppets.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Those undead soldiers who had the powerful jumping ability on the trees suddenly jumped down from the trees in an orderly manner. They raised the large knives in their hands high up and fiercely hit the hard shields.
The clanging sounds made everyone abnormally excited.
No one retreated. If one person could not hold on anymore, then two people would hold a shield together.
The elven ministers were also trying their best to cast magic. Their fireball spell could already restrict the ordinary undead soldiers, but it couldn't attack those powerful undead soldiers. The weakness of magic was that it was relatively slow to cast, usually, after they finished casting, the undead soldiers would have already jumped to God knows where.
On the other hand, the medical elves were most useful. They were inserted into the Swadian Sergeants' formation. They waved the needles in their hands. In just a few breaths' time, a sergeant would be able to recover a large amount of stamina.
This was also something that the Swadian Sergeants lacked. They did not have advanced medical technology, but the elves in the elven colony did. This was one of Bunduk's battle plans. The medical elves and logistics elves would take turns to fight, they would no longer be like Pam's formation, where they would put the medical elves at the rear and wait until their teammates were injured before slowly returning to the rear to heal.
This would waste a lot of time.
The elves' attack power that was good at jumping was not weaker than that of ordinary undead elves. Their knives were even more ruthless and crafty. Even four or five Swadian Sergeants might not be able to defeat a single undead soldier, their main task was to survive the night. As long as they heard the sound of a rooster crowing, the undead soldiers would retreat. They would then have time to find the nest of these undead soldiers and destroy it in one fell swoop.
Time passed by minute by minute. However, to the Swadian Sergeants, this short night was like a long year. Many soldiers fell, and then more soldiers came in later, these fallen soldiers either died or recovered after receiving treatment from the elves, and then continued to participate in the battle.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})The 1500 infantrymen were obviously weak. Although 500 Rhodok sergeants were relatively strong, 500 of them could not change the battle situation. The most important thing was to rely on the defense of the 1000 Swadian Sergeants.
Rhodok sergeants' main responsibility was to pierce through the throat of the surrounding undead soldiers with a single shot.
Although the time was long, their beliefs were unwavering, and they were even stronger.
However, no matter how strong their spirits were, they would still be weakened. The injured Swadian Sergeants began to complain. They did not expect the undead soldiers to be so strong. They were not as weak as Commander Bunduk had said.
Bunduk obviously noticed this as well. He calmly said to the soldiers, "Everyone, hold on for a little longer. In another hour, the sun will rise. The rooster is going to crow. These undead soldiers will not last until the sun rises."
There was not only one hour left. It was only past midnight. There were still a few hours before the rooster crowed.
However, Bunduk said so. When the soldiers heard that there was only an hour left, they all became excited. No one bothered about how long it would take for the sky to brighten. They all wanted to fight for a while more, just a little longer, the sky would brighten soon.
With this belief, the sound of the rooster crowing seemed to be heard an hour later.
It was the sound of salvation.
