章 554: Battle of Camelot 3

"Arrows!!" one of the Danes warriors shouted, as his eyes looked upon the rain of projectiles heading in their way. "Raise your shield!!"

The mesmerizing yet murderous rain of arrows once again permeated the azure sky, but this time the Danes were ready to reciprocate the reception. They raised their shield and covered their upper body with it, as they walked in the infamous shieldwall formation.

Each group had around one hundred men, where one third would position their shield to the front while the other two third would put their shield on top of their head. 

This arrangement of shields allowed the Danes to have total protection against attacks coming from the front and above.
