Chapter 468: Breaking the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat

This time, the Golem troops alone reached more than 5,000. Among them, there are 2,500 sulfur steel golems and blood chain golems, and there are 400 bronze serpents, and the number of gargoyles has reached 2,000. There are also 12 cobweb golems.

In terms of long-range troops, Li Ran waved his sword, and the elven archers and mage regiments fought 3,000 people.

Based on the experience of the previous days, this march did not encounter much danger, and after dozens of days, the army finally came to the vicinity of the hot springs, and after destroying a herd of about 300 snowy ice bears, the army rested here for a day. The next day, they drove directly to the territory of the Snow Leopard Clan.

This is a continuous snowy mountain range, and only when you enter it can you know your insignificance, and the army of nearly 20,000 people from a distance is just an insignificant little black dot added between the mountains.

After choosing a relatively sheltered and wide place to station, Li Ran directly let Ziyun Huahua and Cai Chang lead 500 gargoyles to attack each other's outposts and residents outside.

When the other party saw this, he didn't know that the previous enemy was coming again, and immediately sent the same number of Storm Xue Peng, but when these Storm Xue Peng just caught up with the gargoyle who was trying to escape, the other party suddenly descended, fell into the snow and shrunk into a ball and changed into a stone form, and its hard outer armor made these Storm Xue Peng a little helpless.

It took a long time for these storm Xue Peng to shatter dozens of gargoyles in the form of stone statues, and at this moment, hundreds of huge bronze giant snakes suddenly sprang out of the surrounding snow and entangled them, and the frightened storm Xue Peng hurriedly took off, and was attacked by the elven archers who had already been ambushed. Less than half of them were left, but just as they were about to fly back. More than a thousand gargoyles had blocked their back path and rushed straight to them, and at this time, the gargoyles on the snow were also preparing to take off under the order of Ziyun Blossom.

The battle in the air was clear to both sides. In the end, less than a hundred of the five hundred Storm Snowbolts ran back, and the rest were all killed or captured.

This was the first time that Li Ran's Golem troops appeared in the Endless Snow Region, and it made a good start, and it really boosted the morale of some of the originally addicted ones.

Next, Li Ran did the same, and sent gargoyles to continue to clean up the periphery of the snow leopard clan, and the snow leopard clan who had suffered a loss was not fooled again, seeing this, Li Ran moved the camp forward several times again, and it was less than dozens of miles away from the territory of the snow leopard clan recently.

What Li Ran did was bold. His behavior is tantamount to forcing the other party to fight to the death.

However, this situation lasted for two days, and the other party still did not send a single soldier, and at this time, Li Ran once again led his troops to a position less than five miles of the territory of the Snow Leopard Clan.

Sure enough, due to the pressing of Li Ran and the others, the snow leopard clan could no longer tolerate it, and sent a fast force the next morning, cooperating with Storm Xue Peng, and went around to the rear of Li Ran's troops in an attempt to sneak attack Li Ran's convoy, but was beaten back by the tightly defended mages and elven archers.

After this battle. Li Ran suddenly led his troops directly to the periphery of the Snow Leopard Clan's territory, and began to camp in front of them, while quickly moving out a dozen large ballistas from the convoy and starting to assemble.

These improved ballistas were noticeably better looking than before, and several of them were carrying three bolts at the same time.

As the steel feathers crossed the sky. The attack range and position of these ballistas have also been adjusted, and everyone has also seen the true face of this snow leopard territory, which is a territory built on the mountain. The area was two or three times the size of their previous surface territory, and the terrain was very defensible. It's no wonder that with their strength, they can survive in this endless snowy region to this day.

I saw Li Ran give an order, and began the formation without the opponent going out of the formation. Just when everyone was puzzled, they saw Shadow Blade and Tang Zhi carefully bring out a large box from the convoy.

When I opened it, it was full of steel feathers used for ballistas, but these were obviously different, except that the whole body was carved with exquisite magic patterns, and there were faint circles of red light.

Under the surprised expressions of everyone, I saw that the spirits loaded these steel long feathers onto the ballista, and after Ke Jiaxi corrected them one by one again, ten minutes later, with Xia Houben's order, these dozen steps of the ballista opened fire at the same time, nailing these magic steel long feathers to the gate of the opponent's territory.

Then only a series of explosions were heard, and everyone was surprised to find that the gate of the snow leopard clan's territory was blown open in this way. Seeing this situation, Li Ran gave an order, and more than a hundred brute bulls rushed out first, and then the sulfur steel golem and the blood chain golem slowly crossed the team, and directly advanced forward and attacked.

After that, Tang Shi and Qian Hui followed closely with all the archers and launched an attack on the opponent's territory, and at the same time, under Li Ran's order, Zhou Xun and Ziyun Huakai, who had received the order before, began to advance from both sides with more than 2,000 stainless steel shield guards.

This is a real siege battle, through the previous reconnaissance, Li Ran made the opponent dare not go out of the city to fight for a while, avoiding the opponent's most favorable terrain advantage. And the other party is in the endless snow region, and the lack of knowledge of technology and magic also gives him some opportunities, taking advantage of this disadvantage of the snow leopard clan, using expensive magic crossbow arrows to directly break through the opponent's gate.

As for the combat effectiveness of the snow leopard clan, which is comparable to that of high-level troops, Li Ran is not afraid, on the real battlefield, personal strength does not represent real combat effectiveness, which is a mistake that many people are prone to make.

When thousands of steel golems rushed into the territory of the snow leopard clan under the harassment of the brute herd, Li Ran hurriedly ordered the three-star Niusbone warriors, the hardcover hammer shield dwarf warriors and the gargoyles in the air to jointly attack the ranged troops on the opponent's wall, and the leopard warriors also rushed forward.

At this time, the only trouble in the battle for the wall was the snow giants, although they could also throw some hard ice and stones, but at the moment the other party was obviously not so prepared, and with the size of the other party, the wall was not very wide and could only accommodate more than a thousand people. Most of the rest were still under the leadership of the leader of the Snow Leopard People, obviously trying to use their rank and size advantage to deal with Li Ran's huge ground forces.

It has been shot by nearly 3,000 mages and elven archers for several rounds before, and most of its own stones and ice blocks have only hit the steel golem, and at this time, they have to face high-level full-covered Yagang dwarf warriors who are not inferior to themselves, but they are extremely well-equipped, not to mention the raid of more than 300 top Niusgute Fang warriors, nearly 2,000 gargoyles and more than 600 leopard warriors, and when thousands of Storm Snow Peng came to the rescue, the wall had been captured by Li Ran's side.
