A Mordor Wyvern Knight hovered rapidly in the huge airship, his face was full of panic, there were huge air blimps everywhere around him, flying in it was like flying in a palace in the air, from time to time from a corner of the cannon shells made him unable to guard against it, and the two dragon vulture knights behind him who were firmly in pursuit of him shot one or two deadly bullets from time to time, his wyvern was now scarred, and the sturdy armor could not support such a high-intensity battle, and the blood continued to collect from various wounds, forming a thin stream of blood falling to the ground。

He controlled the dragon to get as close to the huge airship as possible, only in this way could he avoid too many cannonballs bombarding him, but the two dragon vulture knights behind him were like messengers who kept rushing to kill him, in this environment, their dragon vultures were more mobile and more powerful, and the height advantage and linear speed advantage of the dragon could not be used at all.

Turning the front end of a huge Alduin airship, three dragon vulture knights appeared side by side, both sides were obviously shocked by each other's appearance, and then the three dragon vulture knights on the opposite side pulled the trigger at the same time, and the huge dragon on the opposite side of the three muskets tilted the ammunition, and the dragon that had no time to slow down directly collided with these cannon fires, and the front end of the entire dragon was beaten beyond recognition, and the body that had been struggling for a long time finally couldn't hold on, and the whereabouts of the wail.

After shooting all the bullets, the dragon vulture knights immediately returned to their mothership, let the dragon vulture rest and drink saliva, eat some special high-energy rations, and replace them with a full ammunition spear that had been prepared for a long time, and the three dragon vulture knights could set off again to continue the battle.

The falling Wyvern Knight began to unresponsive free-fall after the first few final flutters, and with his fall, the entire ground battlefield was unobstructed.

The sky is full of artillery fire, countless cannons are roaring, the huge black gate city wall is full of artillery flames, the city is densely packed with terrifying armies, the crisp sound of muskets is endless, the huge siege towers are pushed directly towards the city wall, there are still many towers on fire around them, or sparse towers directly hit by artillery, but more towers are relying on continuous advancement.

The flames of the stone slings streaked through the sky, and the huge tree people walked in the ranks, they pushed the huge siege towers, more small than the tree people, but also more than the trolls' slightly huge steam robots are everywhere, the production of assembly lines makes their number extraordinarily large, and there are countless cat people controlled on it, these steam engines are more slender, which makes them cheaper to build, very suitable for mass production, and the number of steam robots is now even close to catching up with the entire trolls tribe.

This Wyvern Knight landed on the battlefield on such a battlefield, there were countless attacking coalition soldiers on the ground, the sudden fall of the Wyvern made the soldiers below who didn't pay attention to the sky were crushed to death, and a small blank area appeared in the dense queue, and then it was submerged in an instant, the death of this Wyvern Knight was extremely small for this huge battlefield.

At this time, on the black gate, countless orc soldiers with weapons nervously looked at the coalition army approaching under the city, their equipment was too far from the coalition army below, the armor of black iron had never been upgraded, and during this war, it was just to prepare these armors more perfectly, and the steel armor was not to think about it, but the orc soldiers with this equipment were the front-line army of the entire Mordor, huge in number, and easy to form, and they themselves did not rely on their own combat effectiveness to fight, but relied on their own numbers。

So no matter how dense the artillery fire on the black gate is, Mordor still does not hesitate to drive a large number of orc soldiers to the city wall to hold on, and there are more goblin musketeers, except for the first three waves of one musket per person, the people behind are changed to one musket for every three people, and the other two people go directly to the front line to find it, anyway, there are so many dead people, there must be a lot of muskets on the battlefield.

Orc melee soldiers and goblin musketeers were the frontline troops of Mordor, and it was the presence of such an army that prevented the coalition forces from advancing the siege engines under the walls unimpeded.

On the black gate, on the walls of each mountain on both sides, countless orc archers and goblin musketeers continued to shoot arrows and bullets downward, and the coalition forces below were also constantly fighting back, and the coalition army's counterattack firepower was even stronger, the muskets of humans and dwarves, the rain of arrows of elves and wood spirits, under the double attack, the Mordor soldiers on the opposite wall and the mountain wall fell to the ground one after another, and their bodies continued to fall from the city wall and the mountain wall, just like the dragon knights who kept falling from the sky.

Looking out from the black gate, the black-pressed coalition forces pushed the siege towers and spread in, artillery and trebuchets slashed over their heads, or caused huge casualties in the crowd, the soldiers' fonts were full of flesh and blood, and the siege towers would crumble from time to time, and the treemen who pushed them below took refuge after the tower collapsed, but some were accidentally crushed by the massive tower wreckage, seriously injured, or became part of the earth.

The orc soldiers looked nervously into the distance, the coalition brigade was getting closer and closer, guns and arrows were everywhere around them, the half-orc soldiers and goblins died tragically under the dense gunfire, their corpses were stacked on top of each other, and then they were sunk by artillery fire, and the troops on the front line died to a certain extent, and Mordor in the rear would drive out a large number of soldiers from the various hiding caves to the front line, and there were many half-orcs and goblins, and they were not distressed at all, and if the black gate was lost, it would be really exhaustive for Mordor.

So the Black Gate must not be lost!

"It's close, it's close, our people are leaning in!"

Olaf, who was watching the battle from the rear, saw that the first siege tower successfully set up the city wall under the cover of countless muskets and bows and arrows, and the city wall in front of him was full of wreckage, and inside was the defeated Mordor artillery, and it was impossible to get up without destroying these artillery towers, in fact, all the batteries on the city wall that might threaten the towers were taken care of, and the magic crystal cannons of the air fleet attacked the point, and the dive bombers of the Vulture Knight's cameo took care of these artillery, either by the magic crystal cannon to fly the whole shot, or by the fire bombs delivered by the dragon vulture knight into the sea of flames。

The entire Black Gate is already full of wreckage at this time, but relying on their super thick walls, they can still stand proudly, so that the coalition forces must carry out a battle to climb the city, and now seeing the siege tower finally approaching the city wall, Olaf of course is excited to yell, there is no reason not to be careful, because the first to climb the wall can all be dwarven berserkers, they are short, strong, wild in battle, explosive, with these dwarves as the vanguard can expel Mordor's troops from the city to the greatest extent, and only after the dwarves completely control the entire city, the Terran troops behind will rush up and form an infantry phalanx at the head of the city, slowly squeezing Mordor down the wall.

There are few coalition troops, so special attention is paid to cooperation and formation, dwarves are the weakest of the coalition forces, so they are also the most favorite to perform, the current battle will undoubtedly divide the future Middle-earth forces, so the dwarves must find a way to reflect their value and strength in this battle, the actual dwarves do not need to do this Lelouch will definitely support the dwarves, if the future of Middle-earth only two Terran and elves, but there is no alliance, direct duel is certain, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, but the three tigers can be afraid of each other and not shot。

As the first siege tower leaned against the city wall, countless siege towers approached one after another, and the treemen who completed the task below hid directly behind the tower, raising a huge shield to set up a space for the team behind to move forward, and also protect themselves under the shield from the Mordor soldiers above from using fire oil bombs to attack them, they would only go up after the situation above stabilized, they were huge, and if there were no other troops to cooperate, they were a complete target.

Elven treant troops are actually large and small, such as the last field battle with Mordor sent out of the Treants are the most powerful and top Treants, all of them can be compared to the mammoth, but now the Treants are mostly petite, with a large number of siege towers leaning against the city walls, their hatches are opened at the same time after being alerted by a flare, and behind the open gates are a dense group of dwarven soldiers, they are dressed in heavy armor, Viking helmets only show their eyes and beards, they carry round shields and long-handled battle axes behind their backs, and hold muskets in their hands, which are pointed directly at the front, Regardless of whether someone didn't shoot out directly, these dense ammunition hit the Mordor soldiers who were about to besiege and jump out of the coalition soldiers on the opposite side, but the opposite side was not without countermeasures, where the dense crowd of fallen people, the dense muskets began to fire back.

Everyone knows that at this time, this dense formation is the easiest to be harvested by a salvo of muskets, so the dwarves and these melee soldiers all use a loaded musket to fire directly, and the opposite Mordor is also prepared a large number of musketeers ready to harvest a wave, the battle between the two sides began in this firefight, the dense Mordor soldiers on the opposite side fell a piece, and the dwarven soldiers who were preparing to impact in the tower also arrived, if it weren't for their short stature, maybe they would have died more, but after this round of muskets, both sides immediately dropped their muskets and drew their swords to prepare to dry。

Platoon guns? No, the cannon fire in the sky is no joke, and the coalition fleet overhead really wants Mordor to put on a platoon of guns, because it is much easier to kill than them scattering, so Mordor directly finds a way to get close to the coalition soldiers after firing a shot.

The gap between Mordor and the coalition forces in melee combat ability is not big, but it is too far apart in terms of firepower and air combat power, not to mention that there is still an attack from the elven gold fleet on the river, under this kind of firepower, Mordor can only be as far as possible to find opportunities to melee with the coalition forces, in fact, the coalition forces can be so convenient to get close to the city wall and send troops up is also Mordor's intention, otherwise it will not be able to rely on this kind of artillery fire to attack Mordor, only close combat can maximize the advantages of Mordor, and reduce the powerful artillery advantage of the coalition army, no matter how fierce the artillery fire is, it is impossible to hit their own people。

So the two teams that were prepared for melee combat quickly rushed together wielding various melee weapons, and the orc soldiers holding shields and swords were strangled together with the dwarven soldiers who were fanatically wielding long-handled battle axes, but the whole battlefield scene was that the dwarf soldiers were pressing Mordor to fight, and in terms of melee ability, Mordor's orc soldiers were hardly opponents of the dwarves.

In the past, Mordor relied on absolute numbers and a powerful medieval war system to quickly strangle the dwarves, but in this era of change, Mordor's approach is obviously no longer reliable, in the face of the dwarves with muskets and a more powerful war system as the support, the Mordor orc soldiers on the opposite side are actually defeated in the face of the surging dwarf soldiers, and the battle situation on the front line quickly leads to the next operation of the coalition army.

I saw a large number of human soldiers begin to climb the siege tower, and a large number of elf soldiers are directly around the tower to climb quickly, their flexible bodies are like light masters in martial arts, and they jump directly onto the city wall in a few jumps, they began to provide long-range support to the dwarves, and countless coalition soldiers surged out through a large number of siege towers, and it seemed that the tactics of the coalition army to capture the city head were about to succeed.

To be honest, the melee situation on the front line made Mordor completely unexpected, they didn't expect their troops to be repulsed so quickly, this is not because Mordor soldiers don't do their best, in fact, Mordor soldiers are already fighting with all their might, which is obvious to all the commanders behind, but this situation only surprised them even more, the development of the coalition army has completely surpassed Mordor.

In fact, this is also a change in morale, Mordor's strength is a little bit of yesterday's yellow flower, in Mordor put the battlefield in the black gate instead of the field has doomed Mordor's morale to be low, the orc soldiers still try their best to fight, but the change in mentality is completely irreparable, the morale of the coalition troops is now high, first the strong military appearance, and then the terrifying firepower, the coalition forces have no doubt about victory, and Mordor here thinks in the bottom of his heart that this is a war with heavy losses, the mentality is different, their combat effectiveness is naturally different。

Mordor's retreat directly led to the emptying of the entire Black Gate city, countless Terran soldiers and elven soldiers boarded the city, and the Terran soldiers directly began to set up formations, while the elven soldiers raised thousands of bows and arrows to support the dwarves, and many elven soldiers even took out their two-handed willow knives to join the battle after shooting bows and arrows, and the elves' battles were wild enough.
