Chapter 578 Tianzhu
April 1st.

Tianzhu City, the northernmost part of the Yestije Kingdom.

After the Royal Army's tragic victory in the Second Northern War, the main force of the demihumans retreated. Following the order of Red Count Priscilla, the Knight Commander led 10,000 elites to advance and seize this border fortress, which was equivalent to the lord's city.

Except for the defensive troops, these 10,000 people were the entire elite mobile force of Ulowar. Because of this, Pulicica failed to equip someone with enough troops and could only send a hundred cavalry to serve as the backbone of officers.

The main force of the demi-humans is fighting the enemy in the Holy Kingdom on the other side of the Great Wall.

In order to prevent the kingdom from affecting the rear, the commander-in-chief of the ten tribes [Snake King] not only left the northern city as a thorn in the side, but also reserved 30% of the troops in the buffer zone to deal with accidents and act as a reserve force.

This battle for the demi-human kingdom has put the fate of the country on the line. Several of the top ten heroes have died in the battle, and the situation has long been unable to calm down.

The tauren, the most numerous race, continue to attack the city. The main residential area of ​​this alien species is in the north of the empire. Hundreds of years ago, internal disputes caused the King of Blood to flee, and finally settled in the southwest corner of the continent.

Nearly 50,000 tauren are attacking the city continuously. Their average level is not even as good as the kingdom's second-line regular army, but their talents [Outstanding Endurance] and [Brass Skin] make these guys rough-skinned and thick-bodied, and they are undoubtedly good cannon fodder for charging. Choice of two.

However, quantity can also lead to qualitative changes. During the half-month siege, one-fifth of the tauren were killed. Their natural intellectual flaws kept their morale very high. The defenders only lost 3,000 lives, but they were on the verge of collapse. .

On the city walls, the fighting lasted from dusk to dawn.

The knight leader's eyes were red at the moment, but rest was just a luxury wish. His comprehensive level was in the LV36 steel-level adventurer field, and he was an indispensable and important support for the defense line.

Stepping forward, keeping the balance of his body with the firm steps he had practiced without stopping since he was a child, he stabbed straight with the long sword, piercing the body of the tauren who climbed up the city wall, then directly abandoned the weapon, picked up one from his own corpse and continued fighting. This way you save your energy to the greatest extent.

"Sir, the number of these beasts is endless!"

The deputy commander of the Knights threw a bottle of bright red recovery potion from a distance. Both of them were the most senior officers in the earldom and were equipped with quite a lot of magic supplies. However, after fighting for half a month, no matter how generous the reserves were, they had already been exhausted.

The knight leader bit the bottle of medicine into pieces. In the current situation, he had no room to pull out the cork. His strength surged and he swung his sword with all his strength. A light white sword energy several meters long killed the surrounding enemies and regained it. He gained control of the city wall.

"It's impossible for your Excellency to be unprepared."

The leader of the knights shouted loudly, Priscilla is not someone who can't give up anything, but the other party also doesn't do meaningless things. There must be something for which we are sticking here. As long as the time comes, this lone army can be saved. Although he didn't know who could get here when the royal army was helpless.

As the sun rose in the east, the two thousand city wall defenders changed their defenses. Just as the knight leader was about to take a breather, he saw a long "wave" coming towards the end of his line of sight.

They were cavalry advancing at full speed. Judging from the scale, there were at least three knight battle formations, that is, fifteen thousand people.

The waves rushed forward with a sweeping force. The leader was in the battle formation, but his momentum was particularly eye-catching.

The whole body is pitch black armor, a three-meter giant sword shining with blue-black light, and a huge goatman sitting down.

As the sword fell so fast that it was difficult to see, nine slashes tens of meters long ripped through the ground like a crescent moon and struck forward. After the iconic road opening, the excited roars of the cavalry resounded through the sky. As they advanced all the way north, the Black Knight would randomly select a team of 500 people to go hunting. After a dozen or dozens of times, he had already lost the concept. Since we always win after victory, the number of times seems insignificant.

The nine all-powerful slashes consumed half of the mana, but also raised the morale to the peak. The Mighty Light Archangel in the legendary realm flew to high altitude. Since there was no need to use [Crazy Military Power], he chose to spend all his energy this time. Provide significant support to friendly forces.

The sixth level of magic·Bone of the Silver Army.

Bless a large number of combat units with third-level magic and silver bones at the same time, which can improve physical fitness, endurance and skin hardness to a certain extent.

When the magic was completed, the cavalry army suddenly glowed with silver-white brilliance, like a dazzling giant wave suddenly hitting the tauren troops under the city wall.

When the two sides came into contact, flesh and blood flew immediately, animal hooves trampled each other, heavy hammers smashed heads, horses smashed the enemy's chests, countless weapons were waving, and at the front, the dark figure had already reached the city gate.

The city gate opened immediately, and the seven thousand defenders filed out. The knight leader was about to say a few words to the earl's first knight, but in the blink of an eye, the other party led the guards to turn around and start charging again.

The battlefield is cut into different squares like a cake. We must gather superior forces to defeat them one by one, selectively create panic, and destroy various invisible morale nodes. What is ultimately created is the defeat of the enemy.

At the edge of the chaotic battlefield, Jiang Yuan reined in the reins. The goatman leader beneath him had his fur all stained with blood.

"You go and preside over the harvest."

The five hundred people behind him immediately dispersed. This group was composed of elite adventurers, bandit leaders, and strong men in the field. Their overall level was above LV20. They were all now part of the Guards and were governed by the Death Lord.

The situation has been decided, and there is no need to do the subsequent hunting process personally. After hunting all the way, his overall level has reached LV52, Soul Sword Guard: LV10, and he can already choose the next high-level profession.

At noon, the war came to an end. More than 20,000 troops entered the city. After determining the camp area, the army took over the defense of the border fortress.

The number of captured tauren was as high as 20,000. These guys were not very smart. After losing their leaders, they became leaderless, which greatly reduced the difficulty of management.

A meeting of senior officers immediately began, with four knight captains, infantry leaders, chief and deputy knight commanders, and deputy commanders present.

Jiang Yuan sat on the main seat as he should.

The first order was about the formation of the magician regiment, which was concurrently served by the infantry leader. After absorbing the garrison magicians, the number came to two hundred, which could only be regarded as a preliminary framework.

The second order was to restart slavery and allocate tauren slaves to officers and soldiers at all levels according to their military merits. In the future, manpower would be needed to open up wasteland and cultivate land after the enfeoffment. In order to avoid riots, all prisoners would have their left arms cut off.

This decision has many consequences in the long run, but in this rare period of rapid development, these are all issues that can be tolerated.

Previously, driven by the Golden Princess, the Kingdom of Yestije abolished slavery. However, the demi-humans have caused huge casualties in the territory, and they are using hatred as a cover to avoid immediate widespread opposition.
