Chapter 567 Final Battle ([-])

Naya quickly collected the battle reports from various ministries and sent them to Liu Yun.

By the time the enemy retreated at dusk, the coalition forces had killed more than 5000 soldiers and nearly [-] wounded. The main casualties occurred in the fierce battle where the orcs forcibly crossed the Frostwind River.The five knight groups that participated in the battle lost a total of more than [-] knights and three dragons, and nearly [-] knights were injured, and ten dragons were injured.The enemy's losses are relatively much greater.Roughly estimated, the coalition forces have wiped out tens of thousands of undead and orc soldiers and ten black dragons.

"Have the wounded been settled?" Liu Yun asked.

"They were all moved to the rear in time." Naya nodded.

"What do you think of the results of the first day's battle?" Liu Yun asked again.

"If you look at the data alone, this result is acceptable. The enemy's offensive is not as strong as we imagined, and the losses of the coalition forces are not too heavy. But..."

"But what?" Liu Yun asked.

"On the first day, we had thousands of wounded, which put a lot of pressure on the rear. I worry that as time goes on, there will be more and more wounded, and our logistics will be under great pressure. These If the wounded don't receive timely treatment, it will deal a huge blow to the morale of the coalition forces. But our enemy has no such pressure at all." Naya looked worried.

"You are right. These wounded will not be able to return to the battlefield in a short period of time. In fact, our loss is similar to that of the other party. What is even more heartbreaking is that my knights also suffered casualties." Liu Yun sighed .The six major knight orders all have well-trained fighters. After the damage, the soldiers cannot be replenished in time. It can be said that one dies and one is missing.

"If the Knights don't go into battle, the coalition alone cannot defend the Modron."

"It seems that only by leading the knights to fight in person can I effectively avoid the increase in casualties." Although he has scruples about the Demon Lord, Liu Yun still decides to go to the battlefield in person.

"Yun, I feel that today's battle has a strange atmosphere, you must handle it carefully." Naya looked at him and said worriedly.

"I also feel that something is wrong, but I don't know where the problem is." Liu Yun smiled wryly.

"I think the crux of the problem is why the devil wants to fight a war of attrition with us. It is not easy for the dark forces to recover their strength, and this style of fighting is quite unfavorable to them," Naya reminded.

Liu Yun fell into deep thought.

"Boss, something serious happened!" Shui Han said anxiously when he broke into the room suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Liu Yun's heart skipped a beat.

"When the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield to bury the remains of the dark creatures, those fragments came alive and launched a frenzied attack on the officers and soldiers. In just a few minutes, we lost hundreds of people." Water Said coldly.

"Go, go and have a look!" Liu Yun's face turned cold.

The three of them soon came to the battlefield.

The fragments of limbs of dark creatures were flying all over the sky, chasing and attacking coalition soldiers.All around was filled with the screams of coalition soldiers.Someone was pierced into the chest by a bone hand, someone had a blood vessel bitten by a half-orc head, someone was shot blind by bone fragments, and someone's head was cut off by a flying arm with a knife... The battlefield in the night has become Entering the Shura killing field, the terrified coalition soldiers became the targets of being slaughtered.

"Brother Liuyun, quickly use the light of hope to suppress these monsters!" Kaka, who was releasing life magic to attack the broken limbs in the air, shouted when he saw Liuyun.

Liuyun immediately flew into the air, and the natural armor radiated a dazzling multicolored brilliance, illuminating the entire battlefield.The flying fragments of limbs fell to the ground one after another under the shroud of light, and the battlefield quickly returned to calm.

"Send the wounded to Changfeng City, and then gather these things up and bury them!" He ordered loudly.

"What the hell are these things, what the hell, they came out to harm people after they turned into such a ghostly appearance!" Looking at the dark creature parts thrown into the big pit by the soldiers, he couldn't help cursing angrily.

"Xiaoyun, we are still careless. These bastards have killed hundreds of soldiers and injured thousands of people!" Old Ka walked to his side and said heartbroken.

"We need to be more careful! The devil's control over the dark forces is extremely extreme, and tricks are emerging one after another, which is hard to guard against!" Liu Yun said with a wry smile.

At this moment, a Sand officer hurried over, bringing new bad news.

"Report to Commander-in-Chief, the troops deployed by our army along the river were attacked by half-orc soldiers and suffered heavy casualties. Patriarch Isana is leading people to deal with the aftermath."

"Half-orcs?" Liu Yun had a headache when he heard it, "Where did they come from? How about the casualties?"

"The ones who climbed up from the river should have fallen into the water during the daytime battle. The sentry found them, and we dispatched troops to encircle them. Unexpectedly, these guys rushed directly into the pile of soldiers, and then exploded. Hundreds of orcs , Let us suffer thousands of casualties." The officer said.Thinking of the terrible scene when the orcs exploded, he still felt a little scared in his heart.

"Pass me an order. The Hurricane Knights and the Thunder Knights will each send half their troops to closely monitor the enemy's situation in the Modron and its surrounding areas. We must not give the enemy any chance!" Liu Yun gave the order with a livid face.

At this moment, a burst of crisp gunshots broke the tranquility of the night. Flames shot out from the bridgehead, and the battle started again after a short gap.

Under the cover of night, the Legion of Darkness attacked the Modron again.The enemy's brief retreat seemed to be for these two waves of surprise attacks.After completing the sneak attack, they immediately made a comeback, and the Demon Lord did not intend to give the coalition forces any time to rest.

"I seem to understand now why the Demon Lord is fighting a war of attrition with us." Looking at the enemies flooding up on the Frostwind Bridge and the river gradually being frozen, Liu Yun frowned.

It was night, and the commander of the coalition army, who was in a rage, led the six knights into the battle, and fought fiercely with the half-orc army on the Frostwind River.Relying on the two major skills of Goddess Blessing and Light of Hope of the God of Nature Armor, Liu Yun slaughtered all directions, recklessly harvesting the lives of orc soldiers.However, when he was enjoying the killing, the half-orcs began to retreat, and the mages by the river thawed the ice on the river directly, causing many half-orcs to fall into the river, and forcing Liu Yun to lead the knights to withdraw fought.

The enemy began to deliberately avoid Liu Yun and his knights.As long as Liu Yun and the Knights were not around, they would immediately launch an attack, and as soon as Liu Yun and the Knights appeared, they would quickly retreat.This shameless style of play made Liu Yun and the Knights exhausted and unable to cope.

In the early morning of the next day, the coalition forces in the Modron had to rotate again.As for Liu Yun and the six major knight groups, they hardly had any time to rest, and fell into continuous bitter battles.

"It seems that the enemy is trying to drag me and the six knights down alive!" The morning breeze was blowing, and the clouds on the city wall looked at the undead soldiers constantly rushing across the Frostwind Bridge, feeling very heavy.

In this world, there is only one army that can fight day and night without sleep, does not need any logistical support, and can even turn dead soldiers into weapons to kill the enemy, and that is the Dark Legion.Any opponent facing such an army will encounter great trouble.

The casualties of the coalition forces are constantly increasing, and unexpected situations may appear at any time.He and the six major knight orders have now become the core force of the Modron's defense.But this is not a long-term solution. He and the Knights are both flesh and blood, and it is impossible to stick to the front line of the battle.As long as he is a little slack, the enemy may deal a heavy blow to the modron. At that time, the demon lord will reappear, and the situation will be difficult to deal with.

"It seems that we can only fight the enemy like this for a few days!" Liu Yun had no good plan, and let out a long sigh.

"I just received a piece of information, which may explain why the enemy wants to fight a war of attrition with us!" Naya hurried to his side and said with a gloomy expression.

"What information?" Liu Yun asked.

"There is news from the Koslin Empire that the Demon Lord has sent several troops to arrest civilians in the empire and send them to San Royo City." Naya replied.

Liu Yun felt a chill in his heart.It turns out that the enemy is not afraid of consumption, but is replenishing its troops while consuming.

At this moment, he finally understood the demon lord's intentions: he just wanted to trap him alive in the modron through a war of attrition.This is the easiest way, but also the most effective way.

"What are you thinking?" Naya asked softly after seeing him silent for a long time.

"This is definitely bad news!" Liu Yun sighed, "But we simply don't have the strength to deal with the army he left in the empire."

It is more risky to defend the pain and attack it. Under the Modron, a painful tug-of-war and war of attrition is inevitable.But if this fight continues, the ending may not be optimistic.

"It's better to order Lieyang and Leyak to suspend the attack on the capital of the Koslin Empire, and to search for the dark army operating in the empire." Naya suggested.

"Okay!" Liu Yun nodded and said, "Order them, as long as they find the dark army, destroy it at all costs!"

"Okay!" Naya turned and left.

In the days that followed, the fighting continued without a break.

Liu Yun led the six knight groups across the battlefield, repelling waves of enemy attacks.Lao Ka also led the magic group and started a magic battle with the dark elf mage.With Xiaoka's help, the magic group achieved brilliant results in the battle. They eliminated nearly a hundred dark elf mages at a small cost, and won the most gratifying small victory since the war began.

However, the casualties of the coalition forces continued to increase, and the wounded soldiers were continuously sent to the rear, and the pressure on Liberty City was also increasing.Sophie led her clansmen, and together with the doctors temporarily summoned by the Free City State, treated the wounded non-stop, but the increasing number of wounded soldiers gradually overwhelmed them.Some soldiers with minor injuries were sent to surrounding cities to recuperate after simple treatment.

"What the hell is the goddess doing?" Liu Yun finally couldn't bear it any longer, found Mengyue, and asked angrily, "Does she want to see the people of the coalition army die, and then fight the devil one-on-one?"

"Liuyun, I am the goddess, I have always been here." Mengyue looked at him and sighed softly.
