Chapter 513 The Decisive Battle Begins (Plus Two In One)

Since crossing the Heron Mountains, the dwarves have been almost unstoppable.

Despite recent defeats, the Second Dwarf Army was severely damaged, but under the dispatch of Kraft VI and the superb transportation capacity brought by the steam train, the Second Army quickly completed the reorganization, Karlon Germany's army is as high as 8 people.

Moreover, most of these 8 people are not recruits temporarily recruited into the army, but a group of veterans who are used to seeing blood in Golan and attacking cities everywhere. Half of them are equipped with high-quality breastplates. The armor rate of the Golan army is less than one-third, which can be described as a huge advantage.

Since entering Golan, the repeated looting of the local area has greatly boosted the morale of the Callond army. Not many people take the disastrous defeat of the Second Army to heart. Great price.

In such an atmosphere, Kafu VI regarded the capture of Nolan as inevitable, and even a matter of course. They had an advantage in military strength, weapons and equipment, and morale. A country that lost its king, What is there to be afraid of?

The always wise king of the dwarves sent an envoy to the Golan army in the royal city to issue an ultimatum early on. On the way the envoy replied, Kafu VI had already started planning where to build after the formation of a huge empire. a new capital.

Soon, the emissary of the dwarves brought a response from Maxwell.

"... Golan has been liberated from slavery since 200, you came too late, we no longer recognize anyone as the master.

You and your army have brought us great distress, and perhaps tomorrow we will be destroyed and reduced to rubble.

But I believe that crisis cannot destroy Golan. "

Maxwell's response was quite long, so the dwarven emissary only recounted the most important parts.

After hearing this, Kraft VI pretended to be surprised and said:

"Danger cannot destroy Golan? Is that what he said?"

The dwarf messenger nodded slightly, reassuring himself that the message was correct.

Kraft VI sneered and said:
"He is just a defeated general, he left his territory, what face does he have to say this?

This is simply a joke.

Convey my will, reward the whole army, and attack in two days. "

Two days later, the morale of the dwarf army was high. The cold morning slowly rose with the sun, and the sun shone on the gray iron armor. Diffuse.

As the horn was sounded, the huge armored giant held up a mountain-like shield and began to cover the army from crossing the river. It was not enough to hinder the dwarf's footsteps, so the Golan army quickly changed its strategy, and their commander began to order people to shoot towards the banners of the dwarf legion commanders.

A small group of cavalry ambushing in the jungle for an assault also rushed out at the right time, preparing to kill the leaders of the legions directly from the thousands of armies and complete the beheading operation.

Another round of arrow rain flew over, the position where the commander's flag was located seemed to be lacking in defense, and the flying arrows of the Golan army were about to cause damage. However, some ancient words were chanted by the chiefs of the dwarves, all kinds of strange things The ability gradually appeared, and all the arrow rains that flew over were deflected, and almost all the cavalry who were about to beheaded were rushed to nothing. The ground collapsed in a small area, and some quickly distanced themselves from the cavalry.

As a result, the cavalry who were about to decapitate had to turn their horses around in a hurry and retreat in a hurry. Even though all this was done in time, there were still more than a dozen cavalry who had no time to retreat, and were hacked to death and wounded by the surrounding dwarf infantry. .

In the end, under various favorable factors, the dwarf army successfully crossed the river with little loss. There was a ditch in front of the East Frava River, and the defenders along the bank lit the oil and straw that had been prepared in the ditch, and the flames ignited. Since then, the short legs of the dwarves were difficult to cross. The commanders of the Fourth Army and the Sixth Army who were in charge of capturing this place ordered water to be transported from the river to extinguish the flames, and the attack of the dwarves temporarily stalled.

The Golan army took this opportunity to shoot arrows. These harassing attacks were effective. One giant even fell down with injuries, causing a wave of moderate waves and dust, but soon after, as the flames were extinguished, the dwarves Maintaining the formation, they rushed over in a dense manner.

The vanguard of the dwarves has about 1 people, but there are only about 3000 soldiers stationed on the East Frava River.

The defenders of the East Flava River began to rely on various fortifications to engage in close combat with the dwarves. The shiny armor of the dwarves was full of murderous intent in their eyes accustomed to massacres. People fought, and although the Golan people resisted bravely, the defeat was still inevitably revealed. Under the command of the commander, the defenders began to retreat step by step, giving up the original place to the enemy, and constantly leaving behind. corpse.

Finally, in the afternoon, the dwarves successfully captured the East Frava River and took control of the entire river. The first line of defense that the Golans had worked so hard to build collapsed.

In this battle, facing an enemy several times larger than their own, the defenders of the East Frava River suffered heavy casualties, and although the dwarves suffered certain casualties, they also lost hundreds of people, but the dwarves who had the superior force For legions, this is very beneficial.

After this battle, the morale of the dwarves was boosted again. They believed that the Golan army guarding the royal city was no different from the Golans in other places, and that sooner or later they would be destroyed by the dwarves.

Distress cannot destroy Golan.It seems that, as Kraft VI said, it is simply a joke.

Kaf VI quickly learned the battle report from the front line. As he had expected, although the Golans resisted vigorously and delayed the steps of the Karlond army, the dwarves' attack was still very smooth.

"It appears that Maxwell is nothing more than a howling drake who, with a few more strides from our Legion, can 'send' Hudson back to his throne.

That being the case, the next step is to attack in multiple lines, attack as soon as possible, and strive to defeat all the defenses of the Golans as soon as possible, capture Nolang City, and let Herris witness our victory. "

Kraft VI made a decision. From the perspective of today's unstoppable dwarf army, it is undoubtedly a bit arrogant to divide into multiple lines and attack as soon as possible, but it is undoubtedly a reasonable decision. The dwarf king let the army attack the boot fort at the same time without stopping , Larsen Town, and Horsehead Fortress, eager to wipe out all the enemy's troops as soon as possible.

Successive victories in the war gave the king endless prestige. No one in the legion under his command questioned the will of Kraft VI. After a short period of preparation, the dwarves began to divide their troops into three groups and launched a large-scale attack on the Golans, striving for a quick victory. .

.................................................
Maxwell, who learned of the defeat on the front line at the East Flava River, almost stayed up all night. His body, which was nearly sixty years old, devoted himself to every step of the next plan.

In Maxwell's original idea, the East Flava River should be able to repel the dwarves' multiple attacks and hold it for two days, but the arrival of failure is always unexpected.

A haze spread in the conference hall, and the victory brought by Philip became insignificant. As long as he did not win this decisive battle, all previous victories would be meaningless.

Not long after, the frontline scouts brought the enemy's movements, and the dwarves of Karlund began to attack in three directions, trying to defeat all the defenses of the Golans.

Maxwell understands that although the big strategy does not need to be changed, they have to adjust various tactics in time. The dwarves split into three groups, and the enemy took the initiative to disperse their forces. The army was so unstoppable that he could not be sure that the Golans would be able to withstand the onslaught.

"The boot fortress can be thrown, but you must try your best to hold the enemy for three days. The horsehead fortress is located on the side, and the attack should be the least at the beginning. Try to lure the enemy to pay more attention to the horsehead fortress, and relieve the boot fortress and Larsen. The defense of the town, as for the town of Larsen, tell Baron Amber and Wessett, must hold! Until I lead the troops to complete the raid!"

Maxwell quickly made a judgment. After he finished speaking, he kept begging Skadi. Once the three defensive strongholds were breached, Nolan City would completely become a dead city.

All kinds of tactical adjustments were quickly rushed to the front line, and at that time, the three defensive strongholds were all attacked by the dwarves.

The boots fortress suffered the most violent attack. The dwarves had a total of sixteen legions, including six reserve legions and ten main battle legions. The boots fortress was attacked by five of them. A total of more than 1 defenders tried their best in various fortifications. The ground resisted the fierce attacks of the dwarves wave after wave, and the blood of the Golan people continued to flow down, moistening the land here.

In order to relieve the pressure on Boot Fortress, Horsehead Fortress followed Maxwell's instructions and chose to take the initiative to go out of the city to attack the dwarf army. All the time, in the battle between Karlond and Golan, the former attacked and the latter defended. Such an uncharacteristic move, Let several dwarf legion leaders suspect that a large number of enemy troops have gathered in the horse head fortress, and are preparing to encircle the dwarves from east to west.

As a result, the troops that originally attacked the Boots Fortress began to be transferred to besiege the Horsehead Fortress. Although the situation in the Boots Fortress was still not optimistic, it was still eased.

In the town of Larsen, the dwarves encountered unimaginable resistance, or it can be said to be frustrated.

The one guarding the town of Larsen is Baron Amber, who is the commander of the Second Legion of Golan, and the other is the earl's son Wesette. As the captain of the cavalry, he led hundreds of cavalry to launch a round A round of charge.

Although the dwarves attacked on three fronts, they deployed the least troops in Larsen Town. There were only two legions, with a total of more than 8000 people. However, Larsen Town was relatively flat, and the terrain where the defenders were located was higher than that of the dwarves. This terrain was conducive to the cavalry charge , and the dwarves were unable to hunt down the enemy's cavalry due to the lack of cavalry troops. Under such circumstances, the advantages of humans were maximized.

On that day, Larsen Town successfully repelled the attack of the dwarves with extremely low losses, and the Dwarf Legion swallowed the bitter fruit for their contempt for Larsen Town. They suffered nearly 2000 casualties and had to rest for a whole day, waiting for Kaf [-] Send in more reinforcements.

Under the offensive on the first day, none of the three defensive strongholds fell.

Among them, Horsehead Fortress suffered the most losses due to its active attack, with nearly one-tenth of the defenders suffering casualties, while Boot Fortress was on par with it, only a little better. As for Larsen Town, their results were the most gratifying.

Maxwell could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He no longer hesitated, and hurriedly led his troops out of the city, and rushed to the west of the battlefield. As long as the front line was defended, his troops could not only carry out a surprise attack from the west of the battlefield and complete the encirclement, but also It can cut off the connection between the main dwarf army and the reserve army.

And this will take three days. During these three days, the most important town of Larsen must not fall. Once it falls, the strategy carefully laid out before will be completely bankrupt.
