Zorn really wanted to curse, he really wanted to point to the row of dragon heads hanging on the opposite city wall, and loudly questioned the bastard general Moss from the Holy Demon Empire in front of him: "Why can't you see that your dragon heads are hanging on the city wall?" Are you blind? ”

But he really didn't dare, for a moment, he really envied those enemies on the opposite wall, at least they had the courage to fight in front of the army of the Holy Demon Empire, at least they could fight the army of the Holy Demon Empire without dying.

He had no rifle or machine gun, no cannon and no anti-aircraft guns, so he could only swallow his anger at this time, disguise himself as a coward, and humbly bow his head in front of the generals of the Holy Demon Empire.

So, no matter how much he cursed and annoyed in his heart, the words that came out of one mouth turned into a lowly answer: "I will order the troops to attack Maricha...... Soon, I'll be able to attack in the morning! ”

"As soon as possible!" A little unable to suppress his angry body, General Morse took the reins of the war horse and walked back arrogantly, his pride capital was too much, such as the invincible 3000 giant horse cavalry behind him.

"It's definitely not enough to count on these mortals, let them consume the opponent first, and let's take a look at the mortals on the other side, how many catties and taels there are." As he rode back to his army, Commander Morse spoke to several lieutenants beside him.

All he brought with him were cavalry, and this kind of army was not really suitable for attacking the opponent's walls. Originally, he thought that the siege battle would be left to the dragon knights of Ildo, and he would only be responsible for following the infantry of the Arrant Empire and pushing all the way to Seris City.

Who would have thought that the sky would be unpredictable, and Ildo's dragon knight troops would suffer heavy losses in Maricha and lose the ability to attack large cities. And the cavalry brought by his side is not suitable for joining the siege war - in fact, it is not that he cannot attack the city, but when he attacks the city, the impact of these giant horse cavalry will be greatly reduced.

Normally, they can only attack the city gates, using the impact of the giant horse monster to crash through the city gates. It's just that in this way, it is inevitable to lose some giant horse cavalry, because the opponent's city gate will basically prepare some boiling oil and fire oil and the like.

Moreover, when the mortal army is defending, they generally like to use huge stones behind the city gate to prevent the other party from breaking in. So when he came up, he risked his life with giant horse cavalry, but General Morse was still reluctant.

In his heart, mortals can be consumed, and letting the soldiers of the Arrant Empire send them to death and test the strength and weakness of the other party is what should be done before the war. As for whether the soldiers of the Arrant Empire die or not, that's not something he needs to worry about.

On the other side, Zorn, who had already promised to organize an attack, began to deploy troops with a pale face: "Let the 30,000 troops in front gather and prepare to attack Maricha!" Push up the redcoat cannon we carry......"

"Are you crazy?" Seeing that General Zorn was about to start attacking, Prince Arrant Lombak on the side grabbed Zorn's arm and asked with some reluctance: "Can't you see that there are so many dragon heads hanging on the city over there?" ”

"I saw it! But what can I do? If we don't attack now, these 3,000 cavalry of the Holy Demon Empire can slaughter our hundreds of thousands of troops in just one morning! Zorn shook off Lombback's hand and explained reluctantly.

"I'm just pretending, trying to attack, and retreat after losing some soldiers......" He was lucky, thinking that the loss of 18,000 people was a good deal to plug the mouth of the commander of the Holy Demon Empire.

"Then have you ever thought that now this situation is obviously a fight between immortals! We intervene rashly, in case Ellen Hill really persists, we still have half a bit of good fruit to eat? "As a royal family, Lombard naturally wants to think of a way out for his family.

He felt that he couldn't fight with Iran Hill at the moment, but wanted to let the Holy Demon Empire attack Iran Hill first, and wait for the winner to be selected, and then Arrant would stand on the side of the winner. Even if it costs something, it's a tolerable thing.

"Idiot!" Zorn still pushed Lombback away, and said angrily: "The Holy Demon Empire has won, and the Arrant Empire still has a glimmer of life, and it can even survive for hundreds of years!" But if any mortal empire rises, will there still be a need for the Arrant Empire to exist? ”

"Hiss......" was said by General Zorn, and Lombback realized that the kind of peace he had just thought, based on diplomatic compromise, did not seem to guarantee the security of the Arrant Empire.

At this time, he finally realized that this world had really changed, and as a mortal, if he wanted to keep his position, he could only follow the Holy Demon Empire wholeheartedly and be a dog. In his opinion, it feels really bad, very bad.

Zorn ignored the distracted Lombback and continued to give orders to several officers around him to fight. He wants to press down on at least 30,000 troops and test whether the defenders of Marichane can still fight.

"Woo......!" The long sound of trumpets echoed in the sky, and green battle flags were waving in the wind. The soldiers of the Arrant Empire slowly walked out of the forest, and slowly formed a huge phalanx on the plain outside the walls of Maricha.

Some soldiers held shields, some carried long ladders, and behind them, one after another red-coated cannons were pushed out, looking majestic, with their muzzles pointed diagonally to the sky.

"Knock knock! Knock knock! "The dull drums of war began to sound, and the dense army of the Arrantic Empire, under the restraint of the commanders, began to form three huge phalanxes. The spears are like a forest, and they look at it from afar with a sense of majesty and pride.

Advance! The generals drew their swords at their waists and pointed them at Maricha, and with their somewhat torn shouts, the phalanx of the Arrant Empire began to move slowly forward.

It's just that their steps are a little frightened. Because these soldiers saw through the gaps in their shields the blood faucets on the city that were unforgettable, but also difficult to ignore.

A soldier walked forward cautiously, and at the same time asked his comrades in a frightened whisper: "Have you seen those dragon heads?" Could it be that all the dragon knights who followed us before were killed here? ”

"Don't say it, my legs and stomach are weak! Let's attack an enemy who can kill so many dragon knights, isn't that a joke? Another soldier, holding a shield, replied in trembling language.

But any soldier who is a little more sane now knows that they are heading for great danger. I wonder if the huge city in front of me will suddenly come to life and open its bloody mouth to swallow all the Arrant soldiers.

However, when the soldiers of the Arrant Empire approached a distance of less than 200 meters, Maricha still did not fire. Although there was a dull sound of artillery fire in the city, the shells did not fall on the crowd of soldiers of the Arrant Empire.

It was not because the shells missed, but because they all landed on the artillery positions of the Arrant Empire. The red-coated cannons that had been built at a great cost didn't even let out a roar, and they were blown into a pile of scrap metal by the shells.

Looking at the constantly exploding artillery positions of his own side, Morse, the commander of the Holy Demon Empire, who had been observing the entire battle, finally had some changes in his face. He wondered if he could avoid such an artillery bombardment.

In the end, he came to his conclusion: although it was unlikely that such a bombardment could be avoided entirely, it was not terrible for the giant horse cavalry. Desperately losing dozens of knights and narrowing the distance, for the Demon Beast cavalry of the Holy Demon Empire, it is still something that can be done.

"Boom!" About a minute later, after eliminating the Arrantic Empire's artillery, Elanhill's artillery finally began to attack the attacking Arrantic Empire infantry phalanx. With only one salvo, the 10,000-strong contingent of the Arrant Empire, which was closest to the city walls, collapsed under the sound of artillery.

Because it is a defensive operation and has a complete shooting parameters, the artillery of Iran Hill is quite accurate. About 40 shells fell on an infantry phalanx at the same time, and there was no waste of fire.

40 high-explosive shells fell almost simultaneously, and each shell could almost disable hundreds of people. Because the Arrant Empire used a dense phalanx when attacking the city, the lethality was definitely unprecedented.

Then, the infantry phalanx of the Arrant Empire, after losing about 2,000 people, quickly collapsed - these soldiers were originally afraid of attacking Maricha, and now that the Great Demon King has really descended to the world, these soldiers certainly do not have the courage to fight at all.

So after losing one-fifth of the troops, the 10,000-man squad began to retreat. No matter how much their commanders and squad leaders pushed and spurred, these routs refused to move forward.

As it turned out, they were relatively lucky, because another phalanx of the Arrantic Empire's infantry, which was close to the head of the city, was hit by an even more terrifying fire from the Maricha defenders.

Hundreds of soldiers pulled the triggers behind the battlements, and rifle bullets flew into the crowd, splattering with blood - and before they could figure out what had happened to them, a second volley began on the city.

Before these Arrant Imperial soldiers could make up their minds to continue fighting, another round of artillery fire fell on their heads. The already chaotic formation was completely chaotic, and in a few breaths of this phalanx, about 3,000 people were lost.
