From Skaven to God of War

Chapter 285: Strike a Strike against Friendly Forces

The intensity of the war has been slowly increasing.

But at this moment, when the Eastern Expeditionary Force launched the magic cannon and when the terrifying blue color began to spread over the battlefield, all of this was accelerated.

The rat priests sent a request to the rear, to the underground rat city.

It requires the deployment of more magic cannons. This terrifying big toy is so addictive.

But there was no response, and the deep abyss that produced the magic cannon fell into silence.

The long claws seemed to disappear and no longer responded. This was a very normal situation for this guy.

However, it made the war particularly difficult for the Eastern Expeditionary Force and the rat war.

I thought the arrival of this magic cannon was just the beginning, but now it seems that this is all it is for now, there is only this one cannon.

But even so, the counterattack began.

Accompanied by the dull sound, the rats launched an attack from both the ground and underground directions.

The frustrating defense lasted for a long time.

The ratmen warriors were driven away from the complex trenches and tunnels.

With sharp shouts, they launched a charge towards the human front not far away.

The coalition of nobles was prepared for this situation and they had a wide variety of war equipment.

At the same time, there are many military mages to deal with possible situations on the battlefield.

The mages of the Ghost Eye race are all versatile, they can suppress enemies, inspire friendly forces, heal, maintain the front line, fight against mages, they are capable of almost everything, they are some troublesome guys.

Fortunately, in the exchange of pieces when they first met, Shuzhan exchanged a large group of military mages with the ferocious knight in his hand.

The number of mages accompanying the army on the front line was not sufficient, and seemed a bit stretched.

The rat-men priests were also thrown into the battlefield.

At this time, they were mixing in with the ratmen warriors charging forward. Various divine arts were constantly being cast, including falling rocks, ground-splitting spells, rock spikes, and rock missiles. Perhaps because they had been active underground for many years, the divine arts cast by the ratmen priests generally tended towards the two factions of earth and rock.

Of course, in addition to the earth and rocks, there is another thing that they are equally familiar with.

Berserk, mass berserk, killing aura.

Such divine arts continued to be cast, and the eyes of the ratmen warriors charging forward were all tinged with scarlet.

This is not the most troublesome situation.

The most troublesome situation comes from the ratmen surging underground.

The Dark Eyes are on guard against the underground activities of the Skaven, and the Elemental Chaos Cannon is a good way to deal with it.

It is possible to easily wipe out most of the ratmen in an area, and at the same time, most of the various offensives and underground tunnels built by the rats can be wiped out. As long as a few more bombardments are launched at an area, everything in this area will be cleared up. While cleaning up the bombarded land, it will also send the land back to a desolate state.

But such means obviously cannot be used against one's own position.

Various detection and inspection instruments were placed at the forefront of the ratmen's positions, and anything happening underground could easily be observed by the Ghost-Eyed People.

This made the underground march of the ratmen extremely difficult.

The Dark-Eyed people were not stupid enough to go underground and fight the rat people to see who would win.

Some military mages would join together and use joint spells to destroy the underground tunnels that were being developed. This kind of thing should actually be what the mages who graduated from the Golden Wheat Academy were most adept at and most experienced at, but the Golden Wheat Academy was destroyed along with the fall of the City of Waves.

The escaped student mages were drowned in the endless tide of rats outside the city, and the abandoned main body of the academy in the city was also burned into ruins by the rats.

Many unique technologies are not circulated in the empire of the Ghost Eye people. In fact, every magic school has its own strengths and unique skills.

For example, there is a stone pillar with complex patterns buried underground in the city of Jilang. If there is this thing, the noble coalition will not have to worry about the possible appearance of ratmen underground and will be able to free up more manpower.

It's a pity that the manufacturing technology of these stone pillars was buried in the Crash City, which had turned into a chaotic rat tide, along with the destruction of the Golden Wheatfield Academy.

During the war, the military mages on the front lines became extremely busy, and naturally they began to neglect the attention and handling of the underground tunnels.

The rat priests were not only mixed in with the rat troops on the ground, but were also incorporated into the rat troops surging underground. Various divine arts greatly increased the speed of the rats' advance underground.

The tunnel excavated in this way is certainly not a proper and solid tunnel. It is too rushed and very rough. It may not take long, perhaps one day or two, for the tunnel to collapse on its own. Collapse is a natural thing.

There are already enough ratmen buried in this not-so-vast piece of land. They were all buried by collapsed tunnels and died in pain and suffocation.

But the bigwigs of the Eastern Expeditionary Force obviously did not care about the durability of these quickly excavated underground tunnels and the unfortunate people who were buried there.

Faster, faster.

The soil covering their heads was lifted up, revealing a large hole in the ground, and the rats continued to pour out along this hole.

The noble coalition forces were caught off guard. The ratmen were continuously moving deeper into the noble coalition forces' front line along the cavity created by the artillery fire.

Huge roars continued to resound on the battlefield. The Dark-Eyed People tried to use the huge cannons in their hands to cut off the retreat of the charging ratmen, trying to crush the morale of the charging ratmen warriors, forcing them to retreat and flee.

It’s just that the effect isn’t particularly good.

The rat priests mixed in the rat army can play an extremely good role in supporting morale.

In the layers of killing aura, no matter what emotions appear in the heart, the final result is to be transformed into anger.

A charge with red eyes, a desperate charge.

The original role of the Rat Priests was to support the morale of the Rat Army on the battlefield, and they have always done a good job in this regard.

However, their joining does not mean that the Ratman Supervisory Team is useless.

The Rat Priests can maintain the morale of the Rat Warriors on the battlefield, while the Rat Supervisors can push the Rat Warriors onto the battlefield very quickly.

In those horrific cavities created by the bombardment, the chaotic elements had not yet completely subsided, but some ratmen were already being pushed tremblingly into the cavities, being pushed to fill the horrific cavities that appeared on the battlefield due to the bombardment.

The human side's artillery bombardment did not interrupt the ratmen's charge.

Perhaps out of concern for harming friendly forces, the Ghost Eye people's terrifying magic cannons have never been aimed at the battle area on the front line where fierce fighting has already begun.

They will still worry about harming friendly forces, but the rats won't. These guys don't care about friendly forces at all and have no bottom line at all.

This lightning cannon was specifically designed to be fired at the area on the front line where the ratmen warriors and human soldiers were in fierce confrontation.

The human soldiers, magic knights, and accompanying mages gathered here were the most numerous, and because they were entangled by the incoming rat warriors, it was difficult for these guys to avoid the bombardment. Firing one shot here would be the most efficient.

Large numbers of human warriors, magic knights, and army mages simply fell down and died with dark blue lightning lines on their faces.

Of course, the rats couldn't escape either, and these guys often had a look of confusion on their faces before they died.

Obviously, they didn't really want to understand why, all of a sudden, they were sent up to the sky, and why they were sent up to the sky by their own people.

The noble coalition began to look for the deployment location of the ratman lightning cannon.

As another ball of lightning was thrown out, the rat-man priests were dancing excitedly and crazily.

The hill next door took the hit.

The hill, which was not a small one, was almost flattened to the ground by such a blow.

The expressions on the faces of the rat-men priests froze at this moment.

However, as the few intellectuals in the Ratman Empire, these Ratman priests were not stupid. They responded very quickly and appropriately.

Soon, a large number of slave rats dragged the hastily made prototype of the lightning cannon away.

Also leaving with them were the rat-man priests who were manning the cannons.

This is a very correct response.

Not long after they left, an elemental chaos cannon landed where they had just stopped. The expanding tide of chaos elements almost engulfed all life in the area.

The Ghost Eye people are trying to locate the Skaven, which currently has only one lightning cannon.

Being forced into a corner, the ratmen priests had to start practicing the principle of moving to another place after each attack.

The two sides began to play hide-and-seek on the battlefield, but there was a problem. The noble coalition of the Ghost Eye human race had more than just one or two chaos element cannons.

After the prototype is verified, the next step is to start large-scale production.

But the rat people had a problem, and the producer of the lightning cannon was locked up.

To be honest, Shu Zhan should have wanted to strangle Long Claws to death at this moment. He was anxious, really anxious, although this guy had never openly shouted to the rear for more lightning cannons.

But recently, the guys in the Eastern Expeditionary Force who are making this request to the rear have expanded from the rat priests to the rat warlords, who are constantly urging the rear.

The only thing missing was Shu Zhan himself shouting towards the back without any dignity.

Give me more, give me more.

It's a pity that there is no news about Long Claws at the moment. If possible, Shu Zhan really wants to strangle Long Claws, the damn guy who disappeared at the critical moment.

But he can't do that yet.

The ratmen, who had been hiding for a long time, still maintained their aggressive offensive posture.

But there was not enough firepower support, and they had to move to another position after each shot. Poor thing, they only had one lightning cannon.

It is undoubtedly difficult to end this stalemate.

Amid the aggressive attack, the situation eventually slipped into an unavoidable stalemate.

The war continues.

………….

Lianyan Province, this province has recently returned to peace.

The rat warlords retreated and fled, and the royal knights pushed the battlefield to the barren mountains at the border of the provinces.

Not only did the province return to peace, but the mountain people who had always troubled Duke Lianyan were suddenly no longer a problem.

The sadistic rat-men warlords completely crushed all the mountain tribes, large and small, in the mountains.

It has been the long-cherished wish of the people of Lianyan Province for many generations to completely take control of the province, but it has never been accomplished.

Now, it has been achieved so simply, so simply that it even feels a little absurd.

Even Duke Yan couldn't laugh at this at all.

All of this was not achieved without any effort, as if pie fell from the sky. Standing up, from this position in his study, he could overlook the prosperous port not far away.

Lianyan Province, Lianyan Family, the name of the city serving as the center of the province seems to be easy to guess, yes, Lianyan City.

This is a port city standing at the foot of a cliff.

A broad river connects Lianyan City with many cities in the empire, and even the imperial capital. This has created prosperity for Lianyan City and the Lianyan family, and also made Grand Duke Lianyan the most insolent of the many nobles in front of the imperial royal family.

It was dark outside the window.

If the sun does not rise, the port that he is most proud of is difficult to see clearly. All one can see are the countless flowing lights.

All this comes at a cost.

The stagnant trade after the prolonged darkness made Lianyan City a little deserted for a while. However, recently, cargo ship after cargo ship arrived, and all kinds of resources were transported here. The warehouses in the river port were quickly filled up in a very short time.

This should be a good thing, but all the things transported over are military supplies without exception.

Enough to support a large-scale war.

Lianyan Province has become the frontier of war and dispute, and he will become a vanguard in this war.

It's hard to tell whether to laugh or cry.

But at least, the only thing to be thankful for is that the prince and the imperial royal family behind him have not yet become so corrupt and decadent as to be so miserable, and they have demonstrated great strength.

It could barely make him feel more at ease.

In any case, following the strong is not a particularly bad thing.

Duke Lian Yan thought so with mixed feelings.

However, has Lianyan Province really returned to peace? Among the many rat warlords who invaded this area, the whereabouts of one of the most daring guys has not yet been confirmed.

The rat army that crossed the river seemed to have disappeared out of thin air during this period of time, without a trace.
