On the battlefield that stretched for dozens of miles filled with gunsmoke, the Allied soldiers and the army of the undead attacked each other, shouts, screams, military orders, and horns continued to rise and fall, and the roar of guns, the thunder of war drums, and the low sound of magic blended with each other.

Under the gloomy and low sky, the airships on both sides roared, and from time to time they dropped deadly explosives to bombard each other's military formations, making bursts of eardrum-itching roars that took the lives of countless soldiers.

The counteroffensive of the Confederates outside the fortress of Manwis Canyon has been going on for a day and a night.

The nearly 250,000 troops regrouped in the Canyon Fortress by the Confederates in the past two months, and under the leadership of Emperor Pedi Reagan, they abandoned the passive defense and turned to an active attack, repelling the undead army's strong attack, and at the same time, they fought a decisive battle with the undead army on a battlefield nearly 30 kilometers from south to southwest outside the mouth of the canyon!

However, due to the hasty start of the war, the Allied counteroffensive did not go well at first, and the original plan to advance the front to the northern plains of Tillman in one day was no longer possible.

The main battlefield in the middle lane,

The Giant Bear King Banner hunted and flew in the cold wind, Pei Di's body was surrounded by the holy power of substance, his heavy armor was covered with dirt splattered by the undead, and the war hammer in his hand continued to swing while smashing batches of undead who rushed towards him.

Behind Peidi is the pure infantry orc warriors led by Prince Ribalo, the most elite first banner group of the orcs, specially sent by Shikan-Silver Axe to garrison the canyon fortress.

Pedi's bravery and strength inspired the orc soldiers, each of whom was doing their best to follow in the footsteps of the Human Emperor as best they could, harvesting the undead who came upon them.

Although the undead in front of them were not powerful, there were so many that their battle line had only advanced less than two kilometers in the past day.

However, once the gears of war turn, they will not stop because of this difficulty.

...

"Bang!bang!" There were two muffled sounds, and several more undead were smashed into pieces of flesh under Pedi's war hammer.

The long killing made Pedi's eyes red, his cold eyes staring at the undead who rushed up again through the gaps in his visor, his nose controlling the pace of killing with even breathing to avoid excessive exhaustion, and his eyes were as emotionless as if the gods were looking down on mortals.

After a few rounds of fighting, Pedi seized an opportunity to take two steps forward, and the orc infantry officers on the left and right immediately shouted loudly against the shield and followed his pace.

"What about the artillery support I want?" After dealing with the undead who had re-attacked, Pedi roared at the herald officer near the flag bearer, and as soon as he finished shouting, he felt a scorching heat above his head, and the orc sentry who moved the observation post nearby shouted in a broken lingua franca, "It's meteorite... Watch out for the waves!"

Pedi didn't have time to look up, as he couldn't be distracted by the magic arrows that came at him from time to time, so he had to pray that the meteorite wouldn't land near him.

After a loud "boom", out of the corner of Pedi's eye, he saw rows of fiery meteorites smashing on the undead bone shields held up by the Undead Legion.

"Guard Your Majesty!" Willie Jon, the captain of the guard, immediately held his shield and led the knights of the guard who were ready to die for the emperor to erect a shield wall.

The scorching heat after the meteorite exploded and the scattered waves of fire burned the undead outside the protection range of the undead bone shield, and the powerful blasting air wave directly overturned many undead creatures around them.

Although it seemed like a good time to attack at this moment, the powerful wave of qi and scorching heat alerted everyone present of the danger ahead, and the soldiers of the First Banner Regiment waited for the moment to rush forward while holding their shields to defend against the air wave in the roar of the officers.

Time moves slowly in seconds in every warrior's mind...

One second,

Two seconds,

Three seconds,

"Attack!" the battlefield commander of the mobile watchtower gave the order to attack as soon as the wave of air dissipated.

Pedi couldn't hear the attack command at all, but his holy power had a strong sense of his surroundings, and after the aura dissipated, he pushed away the guard knight who was guarding him, preparing to lead the orc warrior to rush into the battlefield again.

"Emperor Pedi!" but this time Prince Ribalo stopped him.

"The warriors are still waiting for their commander-in-chief, Your Excellency the General. Pedi gasped, his tone unusually cold from the long hours of killing.

"Command has something for your decision, Your Majesty. As he spoke, the herald of the command took off his helmet, revealing a young face that had been frozen purple from the cold wind inside.

"What's the matter?" Pei Di's indifferent and murderous tone, combined with the armor that had been stained all his life, gave people a strong sense of oppression, making the young herald forget the purpose of coming here for a moment.

"Your Majesty Pedi...", Ribalo wiped the stains on his face with hay, as if he wanted to say something.

"You're not a verbose person. Pedi took off his helmet and took the dry towel from the servant, wiping the stains from his hair, "The warriors are still waiting for me to lead them into Fort Tillman." ”

Ribalo threw away the hay in his hand, "Honorable Human Emperor, our Shikan Khan's decision to attack Yimei Town ahead of schedule may be a wrong decision for your layout, but I believe that the Khan King must have his own considerations, he..."

"Got a new battle report from Karen?" Pedi looked at the herald.

"Yes, but I don't know the specifics, Duke Barrett told you to get back to the command as soon as possible!" the herald lowered his head and did not dare to look directly at the emperor.

"Bad news?" Pedi looked back at Ribalo.

"The Duke of Barrett will tell you a more detailed battle report. Ribalo clearly didn't want to talk about it.

...

Before the war, Paddy, who hurried back from the temporary headquarters, was reading a military newspaper from Cullen, and his dark face made everyone around him shut up.

"Can anyone explain to me what is mentioned in the war report... What happened to an unprecedented explosion in all areas from Imi Town in the north to Karen City in the south?"

"The armies of King Nuvat and King Shikan Khan, having suffered heavy losses in this explosion, are now retreating to Fort Vincent and Fort Zekora, respectively, and have not yet found any intention of pursuing the undead legions led by Karen. Andy Barrett stepped forward and explained.

"What's the Big Bang?"

Aethia pointed to a few magical photos placed on the battle map, "From the analysis of the photos that have been transmitted, it should be an energy explosion, and the undead legion has built a large-scale evil energy storage pool from Yimei Town to Karen City, which is... Similar to the Magical Crystals you built, the Orc and Dwarven armies detonated the Evil Energy Storage Pool when they attacked Imi. ”

"It must have been a terrible explosion!" Aetia showed a rare hint of horror.

"These are not the most important things, there are more terrifying things..."Minnie Vatu ignored Andy Barrett's eyes at all, she stepped forward and said: "What's even more terrifying is that the soldiers killed by the orcs and dwarves are corrupted by powerful evil energy and are resurrected at a crazy speed, and in less than half a month, Karen will be able to gather a huge army of undead." ”

"That means that all of our early arrangements in the Karen Territory were scrapped, and at the same time, we also gave Ferrora a powerful army of the undead?" Pedi didn't know what kind of expression to use at this moment, he looked at Etiya, "You claim to have had countless combat experiences with the undead army, didn't you think of such a possibility at all?"

"We didn't expect Ferrora to abandon even her castle...", Aetiya looked ghostly, "This huge explosion destroyed everything between the town of Imi and the city of Karon, turning the plains into rocky mountains, cutting off rivers and leveling mountains, and Ferrora destroyed everything in Karen's territory!"

"Then will our side..." Suddenly, Pedi thought of the Armageddon that was going on on his side, and the boundless fear made him ooze a layer of fine sweat all over his body, and his hands and feet were cold, and he raised his head mechanically to stare at Aetiyah and asked, "They won't also build a storage pool of evil energy in Tilmanburg, right?"

"Yes, but not on that scale, our monitoring devices are constantly monitoring Tilmanburg's evil reactions. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Etya's affirmative reply made Pedi breathe a sigh of relief, and he secretly pointed to Brooke: "Order the mage troops and logistics department to build more and more effective monitoring devices, I want to know the fluctuations of evil energy in Tilmanburg every moment." As he spoke, he reached out and pulled the buckle of his shoulder armor, and after the heavy shoulder armor fell to the ground under his skillful pulling, he opened his arms and looked at the knight: "What are you doing in a daze, take off this damn cuirass for me." ”

Seeing this, the surrounding generals, including Aetia, immediately bowed down and pushed back a few steps, Queen Eileen Phil stepped forward with a reserved smile, waved her hand to rebuke the servant while slowly unbuttoning the back of her husband, and when the armor stained with the blood of the undead was taken off by the servant, she whispered in her husband's ear: "My dear, you are the emperor of the empire, keep your self-confidence, everyone is watching you." ”

Pedi turned his head slightly to look at his wife, gave the other party a reassuring look, and looked left and right while moving the joints of his arms and asked, "Now please tell me, in which direction will Ferrora lead her minions to move after giving up the Karen Domain?"
