Chapter 298: The City is Broken
Late at night, everything is silent.
The monster army didn't know if it was suddenly discovered by their conscience that the war horn had not been sounded in the early hours of tonight, and the human soldiers, who had been physically and mentally exhausted for days, were finally able to sleep well.
At three o'clock in the morning, according to the regulations, the soldiers on the night patrol will change their guard after an hour. According to the human sleep pattern, this is the time when the spirit is most sleepy.
The soldiers were drowsy, and at first they could talk a little faintly to pass the time, but as time passed, they only hoped that the rotation soldiers would arrive early and go back to bed and sleep comfortably.
In fact, the Iron Fort Fortress was not afraid of the Red Dragon Legion launching a surprise attack at night, and the narrow terrain of the first line of sky was not suitable for large-scale combat by the army.
Moreover, within two kilometers ahead, there are mage eyes, and the Red Dragon Legion will be immediately discovered as long as there is a large-scale action, and then the alarm will be sounded, and the soldiers will have enough time to gather.
And at this moment, in the dark like ink, a soldier was covered with his mouth and nose and cut off his neck without making a sound.
A few seconds later, the three granaries of the Iron Fortress burst into flames at the same time, which was especially glaring in the dark night.
It was like a signal, there was a rumbling thunder from the sky, and suddenly a huge falling rock with a diameter of more than one meter fell and smashed heavily on the walls of the fortress, and the falling rock was torn apart, and at the same time there was an earth-shattering roar!
The impact of the force even caused the fortified city to shake slightly.
"Enemy ...... Enemy attack? ”
The sleepy soldier woke up instantly, but the spell trap laid by the caster did not sound the alarm.
At this time, there was a steady stream of boulders rolling down from the sky, and the sound of crashing continued one after another, and the iron fortress barrier caused a small earthquake.
At the top of the five-hundred-meter-high canyon, hundreds of Red Dragon Clans gathered here at this time, and placed a large pile of boulders in front of them that had been excavated in the past three days, and then they didn't have to worry about anything, they just needed to push the boulders down as instructed.
However, this is tantamount to a major disaster for the soldiers in the pass, the canyon is no more than fifty meters wide, and the boulders rolling down from hundreds of meters in the air can crush and crash back and forth, destroying everything.
Countless soldiers woke up from their sleep and turned pale with fright at the sight of what was happening in front of them.
The granary was burned, all eight elemental towers were reduced to ruins, a huge part of the catapults and bed crossbows were now in tatters, and a barracks was hit by a boulder, and there were terrible shouts from inside, and there were heavy casualties.
And at this moment, there was a sudden earth-shattering explosion in the camp, hundreds of shells exploded in a row, the armory next to it was blown up in an instant, and countless shrapnel burst out like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers, and the camp instantly turned into a tragic Shura field.
It stands to reason that both the powder magazine and the granary would be heavily guarded, but the stealth and assassination operations of the Darkscale Organizations are perfect!
The surviving priests continued to release healing spells to treat the wounded, but in the face of such tragic casualties, no matter how the priest rescued, it could only be regarded as a drop in the bucket.
When the indiscriminate bombardment of falling rocks is over, the only thing that will still stand may be the fortified city of the Iron Fortress.
A melodious trumpet suddenly sounded in the darkness, the ground shook, and the Red Dragon Legion, which had already been ready for 30,000 years, launched a final charge.
At this moment, the canyon of the Iron Fort Fortress Camp, which is more than 50 meters wide, is almost filled with large and small falling rocks, and there are soldiers everywhere who have been crushed into mud, turning into a camp in ruins.
Fires, corpses, screams, ruins, stumps and broken arms, everywhere you can see them, you can hear them everywhere.
A dozen officers roared with red eyes, and thousands of scattered soldiers climbed the walls in panic, some of them not even having time to put on their own armor.
With the help of torches on both sides of the canyon, the soldiers saw countless pairs of scarlet eyes emerge from the darkness.
The charging Red Dragon Legion was like an unstoppable torrent, they were rapidly approaching, and the breath of death enveloped the hearts of every soldier.
There was despair in the eyes of the soldiers defending the city, they knew that it was impossible to stop this army anymore, and their previous confidence had crumbled after tonight's raid.
This iron fortress is no longer able to effectively deal a blow to the Red Dragon Legion's charge without elemental towers, catapults, bed crossbows, artillery and other weapons to defend the city.
"No one is allowed to retreat, all of them will be resisted by me!"
The commander of the Iron Fortress roared, his left arm crushed by a boulder, and in order to resist the monster attack, he cut off his own arm with a sword, just to let the priest stop the blood for him and take his own guard to the city to command.
"Behind us is our own country, where our families live, our wives and children. If we retreat, this group of monsters will go straight in, do you want your family to be food in the mouths of the monsters? ”
The one-armed general held his sword high, his voice high and bloody, his hair wet with sweat, as if twisted into a rope of grass.
"For the sake of our families, we must fight!"
"Humans don't become slaves to monsters!"
"Humans don't become food for monsters!"
"If you don't want to live, even if you die, you have to cut off their minions!"
"Death will also die on the walls!"
"Don't retreat!"
However, no matter how passionate and impassioned his declaration is, it cannot change the current situation.
How can human soldiers fight murderous monsters without sharp swords?
The scattered arrows were shot out, and the red dragon legion wearing iron armor simply ignored it, and dozens of giants lined up in a row to take the lead in the charge.
In the darkness, manticores rained down a rain of arrows to harvest the lives of the defending soldiers, and the Chimera Wyvern, led by Aurelian, swept low and ploughed through the camp behind the walls with its mighty breath, dividing the battlefield.
At this moment, hundreds of griffons swooped down, grabbed the lone soldiers with their sharp claws, and tore them in half in the air, raining down blood.
The giant grabbed the boulder in his hand and aimed at the city and threw it fiercely.
Syllable!
The defenses of the human soldiers were like paper paste in the face of such a massive charge, and even the generals who had previously delivered impassioned speeches were smashed into mud by a boulder.
Reality is always cruel to human soldiers, and before the main force of the Red Dragon Legion approaches the city walls, the frontal battlefield has already collapsed, and it is impossible to stop the slightest pace of the monster army.
Monsters carried battering rams and smashed through the gates, and tens of thousands of troops poured into the gates to slaughter the defeated human soldiers.
Warwick, who was eighteen meters tall, climbed the city wall simply, like a demon, carrying a giant axe and slashing as if there was no one.
