Chapter 306: Hold the throat of fate
There are only two rifled cannons in Tomorrow City right now, and one of them was newly built the previous week.
Fortunately, there were fourteen smoothbore cannons at the gates, which were enough to withstand the massive forward roof of the enemy with shotguns.
Alan and the others continued to wait, waiting for the Lionheart's army to approach.
In addition, the pigeons of Moonlight Valley went back once, indicating that there were no bull heads in Moonlight Valley and everything was safe.
The carrier pigeon in charge of reconnaissance on the left bank of the river also returned to the city once, indicating that there was no orc figure on the other side of the left side of Tomorrow City.
Now that everything else is safe, Alan feels even stranger.
Lionheart doesn't play the strategy of splitting and pushing, but only pushes the front wall of Tomorrow City with one brain, is this sick, or is there no fear?
"Lionheart is eccentric, we have to be careful this time, Natasha, you have to pay attention to the atmosphere in the management team, don't be arrogant." Alan warns Natasha.
Natasha replied yes.
Alan was not at ease, and gathered the army orcs before the war, using the full level of teaching skills and hypnotic abilities to convey a sense of vigilance to the orcs, emphasizing that there are major doubts in this war, all orcs cannot underestimate the enemy, and the enemy is likely to have a trick to turn the tables in one fell swoop.
The orcs saluted and promised not to underestimate the enemy.
After that, Alan went out of the city and waited at a high mountain at a 4,000-meter location, and waited for a long time, and finally waited for the news that the Lionheart** team continued to advance.
Alan observes the Lionheart's army with a quadruple mirror, and sees the black oppressive slave army, and behind the slave army is the regular army in armor.
Lionheart's army had learned the lesson of the last time, and this time the tens of thousands of troops stood more scattered, not standing closely together.
Alan originally wanted to observe a wave and retreat to the city wall, using the super distance of two thousand five hundred meters to attack the Lionheart's army.
But after seeing that the other party's position was relatively loose, this thought faded a lot.
In his quadruple view, the slave army is relatively close, perhaps because they are not very important, or it may be responsible for attracting grenade fire.
The regular army, on the other hand, uses almost every five meters as a gap, and it is very loosely spaced.
Standing as loosely as they were, two howitzers fired at them, killing at most twenty or thirty lion regulars, it was not worth it.
The value of the slave army is low, and firing a shotgun with fourteen cannons is enough to break the fragile minds of the slaves, and it is not worth shooting with grenades, so there is no point in Allen going back to the city.
He had rifled guns with him, and his ammunition pack was 200 rounds of mini ammunition, and harassment with guns in the rear of the enemy was the best strategy.
Alan did as soon as he thought of it, blew his whistle, and the pigeons that were on standby nearby fluttered and flew over, rubbing Ellen's head.
Alan wrote on the spot with branches of leaf sap and asked the carrier pigeon to return to the city wall, telling the crowd that he would not go back and harass outside the city wall.
The carrier pigeon flew away and brought the letter back to Tomorrowland.
At this time, Eren did not know that his impromptu response had saved his life, because what would happen would change the perception of all orcs.
The top of an unnamed mountain.
Since Eren had made a response, he continued to stay on the top of the hill to observe the movements of the orc army, using the pigeons.
Lionheart's army continued to advance, and Eren waited until the other side came into his range, and he used his quadruple scope to aim at the orcs who looked like leaders.
Bang!
At a distance of 900 meters, an orc was shot in the forehead and fell diagonally.
The regular troops around the deceased briefly left their squad and fled, but in less than half a minute, they were driven back to their original positions and continued to maintain a loose formation of five meters and one unit.
"It's too calm, it's still moving forward when it's dead, it seems that Lionheart is very confident in himself?"
Alan muttered to himself, reloaded and continued to shoot the next soldier with the temperament of a leader.
Unfortunately, after someone died, Lionheart realized that they had entered the warning range of Tomorrow City, and they all put on helmets to cover their heads and faces, and Alan could not determine whether they were noble or not by walking alone.
There were also a few carriages hanging curtains in the team, and Allen's bullet was aimed at the curtain of the carriage, and after thinking about it, he felt that the probability of hitting the orcs was a bit mysterious, so let's shoot the horses.
Bang!
The horses of the carriage fell, the carriage could not move, and out of it came a lion soldier in ordinary armor, who wore a helmet and could not see his face either.
In this way, the team of Lionheart Nation walked towards Tomorrowland at an extremely fast pace, with a firm step.
On the way, the guerrillas also arrived, taking advantage of rifled guns, shooting Lionheart's soldiers in the forest.
The lion soldiers of the Lionheart Kingdom ignored them completely, and even increased the speed of their foot slightly, not afraid of the harassment of the army of Tomorrow City.
When their army of slaves ran out of the forest and saw the walls of Tomorrow City, the army behind them suddenly stopped.
Eren was active in the enemy's rear, occasionally shooting a strong-looking leonin soldier with a rifled gun.
So far, the lion soldiers have been shot by the guerrillas with rifled guns along the way, and more than 3,000 people have been killed.
That's more than 3,000 regular troops, and more than 3,000 died before the official war began, and they didn't even stop, all just to hurry and hurry.
What the hell are they rushing for, and what is more important than the death of more than 3,000 people?
Alan didn't understand either, he was watching the layout of Lionheart from behind, guessing the other party's intentions.
At present, the smoothbore spearmen brought out by Ivan are still on the way back, and it will take a week for Lionheart to travel from the royal city to Tomorrow City, and the team led by Ivan will probably be able to return to Tomorrow City this afternoon.
Now that Lionheart is the first to rush to a distance of more than a thousand meters, Ivan's army will definitely not be able to catch up, so he can only slowly drag out time.
It was also at this time that someone in front of the Lionheart's army shouted the command to spread left and right.
The slave army in front was dispersed to both sides by the lion soldiers, and a very wide avenue gradually opened up in the middle.
By the way, they are now walking on the main road of the cement road, and in front of the concrete road is the ten-meter main wall of Tomorrow City.
Because it is a main road section, the front is very wide, and the distance is relatively far, at least there are no forest obstacles within a distance of more than 1,000 meters.
The railroad in Tomorrowland was built on the other side of the forest, and a tenth of it was repaired because of the arrival of Lionheart, and the construction was temporarily stopped, and the road was returned to the city to be repaired.
Alan saw that they didn't run to the train track construction area, and sighed that it was okay.
However, the enemy's response was a little stranger, and the slave army did not attack when it arrived at the battlefield, but spread out to the sides and get out of the way.
The orcs in the middle also made a way, as if they were afraid of being hit by the cannons.
The rifled artillery at the head of the city originally wanted to open fire, but seeing that the positions of the lion soldiers were so scattered, they hesitated for a while and did not fire.
The orcs on the wall just watched as the orcs of the Lionheart Kingdom opened a two-hundred-meter-wide and nearly one-thousand-meter-long uninhabited path.
At this time, Alan noticed that the orcs in the shield area were moving, and they all raised their shields.
A certain lion soldier took out a two-meter-long black iron-like bladeless heavy sword from the shield cover, the heavy sword was very wide and thick, and had a heavy metallic texture.
The lion-man gripped the hilt of his sword as if he were holding the throat of a dead man.
