The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 819 Closer to the Royal City
  Whoosh!
  Boom! !
  "My Majesty, I'm sorry!"

In the distance, a thousand meters away from the huge and solid castle, as a golden lightning fell, a huge hole suddenly appeared in the city wall near the north. The thick city wall slowly collapsed in front of everyone, setting off a wave of dust that reached the sky.

Although it was not the first time for Allen, Aaron, Jie He and others to feel the power of gods, they still felt shocked and awed once again when they saw the other party producing such a terrifying effect with a serious strike.

"It's a pity that this is already human territory, otherwise the effect of these spears would be even stronger!"

With a slight wave of his hand, the collapsed ruins in the distance exploded again, and a golden lightning flashed back and fell neatly into Qirong's hand.

Facing the scene of destruction he had created, Qirong's incarnation was still a little dissatisfied, but he had no choice. He had to suppress his aura to avoid being targeted by Faerun's will again, otherwise he would have to spend some means and strength to get rid of it. The will of Faerûn.

"That's enough. With your help opening this gap, Your Majesty, we will definitely allow Your Majesty to rest in the city before tonight!"

Aaron was already very happy. If it were their legion's strength to attack this city, I'm afraid it would require great sacrifices and a lot of time.

"Ao Cong!! Lead the ogre army as the vanguard and charge in!"

"Wait for my good news!"

"Warriors of the wilderness, charge forward!!"

The gnoll commander Ao Cong, who was riding on a giant ogre lizard, had a cruel and excited smile on his face. While unfolding his domain power, he gave orders to the ogre army wearing heavy armor.

"Roar!!!"

dong dong dong! !

According to the ogre's habit before fighting, the ogre warriors slapped their fat chests hard several times, raised their heads to the sky and let out a war cry, dragged their heavy clubs and maces, buried their heads, and followed Ao Cong to kill.

On the wall of the human castle in the distance, the human demigod Soza Yi and a group of spellcasters behind him in loose robes looked pale, and their spirits were severely damaged from resisting the powerful attack.

Although they tried their best and hundreds of spellcasters jointly cast spells to block the attacks of golden lightning, but one after another seemed to be just ordinary attacks from the opponent, Suo Zayi and the others could only watch the golden lightning in the end. The spear pierced the fortified castle.

Suozhayi, who had personally experienced the power of terror, finally understood how Seris Fortress fell in the first place. At the same time, he also had a rough guess about the identity of the strong centaur who sent out the streaks of golden lightning.

"Retreat, your line of defense has no meaning anymore!"

Suozhayi turned his head and persuaded a middle-aged human man riding on a hippogryph and wearing exquisite plate armor.

This human warrior is the current commander-in-chief of the Twin Castles, Viscount Gillier of the Principality. He originally hoped to use the twin castles' city defenses to buy some time for the arrival of reinforcements from the Principality, but now it seems that he has really thought too much.

After all, the Twin Castles are not like the Seris Fortress. They are specially built to consolidate the border defenses. At any rate, many of the building materials of the Seris Fortress are made of granite stone bricks that are good at resisting magic and physical attacks. The Twin Castles are because Living in the stable central area of ​​the principality for a long time, the materials used were only ordinary burnt earth bricks. No one expected that these burnt earth bricks were so weak that they were destroyed by a single blow from the terrifying strong man on the opposite side, and a more than ten meters high body was stabbed out. The big hole comes out.

Having lost the advantage of city defense, trying to rely on the thirty or forty thousand troops in this castle to resist the attack of hundreds of thousands of troops on the opposite side is really a mantis' attempt to defeat the chariot, and it will only lead to death.

But the evacuation mentioned by the demigod Soza Yi is not easy!

"I'm afraid I have to trouble you to send a person who is fast enough to go to the West Fort to inform Oldman and the others, asking him to evacuate immediately after receiving the order."

Gilil looked into the distance with a gloomy face, and made a serious request to the demigod mage in front of him.

"Okay, I'll deliver the letter myself later."

Suo Zayi nodded: "What about you guys?"

"I'm afraid I can't escape. Rather than being killed together with Oldman and the others, it's better to let the soldiers attack the city and buy them some time."

"Your Excellency, you must also go south as soon as possible and inform His Highness Johnson of the situation of the wilderness barbarians, and let them be careful about the methods of the centaur saint!"

".Then you should take care of yourself!"

Sozayi could understand Gillier's choice. The Wilderness Centaur cavalry regiment had already bypassed the Twin East Castles and was heading towards their rear. It was obvious that they had no intention of letting the human troops in the castle escape.

There are many hills here, but most of the terrain is not undulating. Although it is not the best battlefield for cavalry, it is not a harsh environment. The difficulty of charging and chasing is much lower than that of human troops escaping.

It is obviously impossible to rely on two legs to outrun the four legs of a centaur. In this case, it is better to use the complicated and familiar environment of the castle's interlaced lanes to deal a heavy blow to the wilderness warriors who invade the city.

"Your Excellency, please leave quickly. The strong men from the wilderness will come to kill you soon. It will be troublesome for you to get rid of them. I also have to organize the army and arrange the offensive and defensive battles in the city."

The auras of Allen and other wilderness warriors were gradually approaching, and Gillier didn't want Sozayi and the others to get into trouble, so he urged them to leave.

Whoosh!

Suozayi glanced back at Gilil with a complex expression, then rose into the sky, and the eight or nine human strongmen around him also shot towards the southern sky. Soon the figures turned into black spots and disappeared on the horizon.

"Notify the entire army to abandon the city defense positions and retreat to the inner city!"

The mounted hippogryph spread its wings and jumped directly from the seven or eight-meter-high city wall. Finally, it hovered in a square under the city and merged into the bodyguards assembled here. The streets in the distance were in chaos, with large amounts of dust and broken wood flying up from time to time. Groups of warriors from the wilderness roared, brandished cumbersome heavy weapons, and rushed in from the direction of the breach in the north city. Living creatures were seen along the way. , buildings blocking their way have become their targets.

The ogre warriors rushing at the front, with their heavy black swords and heavy, ferocious maces or maces and other heavy weapons, are simply like a ferocious humanoid beast. No matter how solid the building, no matter how powerful it is. The enemies will be overwhelmed by their heavy weapons.

"May the light of morning pierce the darkness, may the rose flower bloom in the blood fire, the blood pulse of the hero!!"

Gilil drew out the big sword from his waist and raised it high. His eyes were firm and his face was calm. He shouted a sentence. At the same time, rays of sacred light spread out from his big sword and merged into the bodies of the surrounding human warriors.

Clang, clang, clang! !

"kill!!"

Gillier's personal guards pulled out the lances mounted on the side of their horses and let out a war cry in unison, and the cavalry brigade of more than 2,000 people began to accelerate their charge.

When Allen and others came to this castle from afar, the strong human beings had already left. In this case, they were no longer polite. The strong melee fighters immersed themselves in fighting on the ground one by one, showing their power among ordinary human warriors. the power of.

"Jie Jie Jie!!"

".gok"

A blazing pillar of flames rose into the sky. As a dragon warlock, Yug seemed to have found the best stage at this time. His burly body turned into a huge firepower fort. Countless fire magics were cast in the once prosperous city. The castle was unleashed, and every building turned into a sea of ​​flames.

Hoo hoo!Hoo hoo!
  In the sky, several bolides with long tail flames approached the city from small to large, and then exploded loudly in the human inner city, setting off turbulent storms and killing countless large human warriors.

With the strong men of the wilderness clearing the way for the army, the warriors of the Wilderness Alliance had no scruples. Any aura of living creatures that appeared and was sensed by them lost their vitality in the cruel roars.

However, humans are not without the power of resistance. Gillier's decision is absolutely correct. If he leads his army to evacuate this familiar castle at this time, I am afraid that it will give the Centaur army a great opportunity to encircle their retreat from the side. But now the human army has broken up and sneaked into the city to fight in the alleyways. Although they still have to face the wilderness coalition soldiers several times their own, the complex environment finally gave the human army some opportunities to exchange lives for lives.

In the seemingly burning ruins, a group of wilderness warriors thought that there was no danger and were about to speed through. However, just as half of their team passed through, a huge explosion suddenly occurred in the burning building, with sparks of wood and cloth. It splashed around, and a large part landed right on top of the Wilderness team.

A group of human warriors fought out of the ruins, showing murderous intent and heading straight towards the somewhat chaotic wilderness army. Soon the two sides fell into a melee.

When other wilderness teams arrived, less than 1/3 of the more than wilderness teams that were attacked by surprise were still standing in the end. Their remaining opponents saw that more wilderness warriors surrounded them, but they could not help it. There was no trace of panic or nervousness at all, and a determination to die appeared on his face as he continued to frantically attack the surviving wilderness warriors.

Similar scenes were staged in every corner of the castle. The human warriors seemed to be invincible, and they always came out from unexpected places and dealt a big blow to the strong men in the wilderness.

Although human warriors show their tragic side of being tenacious and generous in dying, in the face of absolute strength, their struggles and struggles are nothing but a tragedy.

One day passed, and when night gradually fell on the castle, it was difficult to cover up the flames flying all over the sky, dyeing most of its sky red.

There are no traces of human presence in the city, not even a living creature can survive. Dozens of miles to the west from the ruins of the castle, there is also a fire cloud rising in the sky. It is the twin castles of the West Fort that are burning.

It's a pity that the defenders of West Fort were decisive in withdrawing. Although Ahmed sent a cavalry regiment to pursue him, the opponent set a trap when retreating and fired a carbine in return. At that time, he let the centaurs pursue him. The army suffered a small loss.

In the end, the lone human army was allowed to retreat. When Ahmed heard the news, he lost his temper on the spot. Fortunately, the deputy general of the Centaur Army was not present. A nice meal of fruit.

After breaking through the first line of defense of Duke Rose's capital, the coalition forces and the centaur army did not delay any longer, and then continued southward with the army.

Aaron and Ahmed also felt a sense of tension in their hearts. The human coalition finally turned its attention from the Orc Empire in the east to the Wilderness coalition invading the Rose Principality. This also meant that the purpose of the Wilderness's dispatch of troops this time was to be on time. Completely achieved.

Although the goal has been achieved, the huge risks and pressure that will follow will inevitably befall this wilderness army that has penetrated deep into the hinterland of mankind.

Not to mention the distance, let's just say that according to the existing information, the 300,000 troops will arrive at the Royal Capital of Newins in the Principality of Rose within a month at most. Combined with the more than 300,000 troops of the royal capital's defenders, it is enough to fight on the frontal battlefield. The Wilderness Alliance played and the Centaur Army competed.

Not to mention that there are still follow-up actions on the human side. It is said that at least 500,000 troops are being assembled. It will take no more than four months at most to reach the Newins King City area.

Human civilization is prosperous, and even a small principality can have hundreds of thousands of troops. It is said that a powerful empire exists, and the speed of mobilizing troops is extremely fast.

Looking back at the Wilderness Alliance, the latest document sent states that the alliance has reached an agreement on the number of troops to be recruited for the second time, and what follows is a long period of army assembly.

I am afraid that the second wilderness army has not yet been assembled. Their coalition army, which has penetrated deep into the heart of the Rose Principality, has long been reduced to bones, and it is impossible to see the day when follow-up reinforcements arrive.

Whenever their army is defeated and annihilated by humans, the vast land occupied in the north of the Rose Principality will return to the hands of its original owner.

Even if the Principality of Rose is a little braver, bypassing the wilderness coalition forces on the front battlefield and fighting to the rear, the land in the north can be easily recovered. The only trouble may be that except for the naturally dangerous areas in the three northern provinces, there are no other fortresses for defense. , castles, all were destroyed by the Wilderness Alliance Army and the Centaur Legion.

Therefore, before the arrival of the human coalition forces, Aaron, Ahmad and others thought of putting as much pressure on the capital of Rose Princess as possible, reducing the strength of the opponent's army, and then relying on the vast territory of the three northern provinces that had been cleared, they could fight with the human race The coalition forces struggled until reinforcements arrived from the wilderness.

This is also what the Centaur Legion has been doing before and after the Wilderness Legion attacked Seris Fortress. Only their excellent footwork can cover most of the named towns in the three northern provinces of mankind in more than a month. Wipe them out.

After capturing and completely destroying the Twin Fortresses, the Wilderness Legion rested on the spot for a day, and then continued southward with the main force of the Centaur army, heading straight for Newins City, the capital of the Duke of Rose.
