Chapter 507: The Beginning of the Edge

Capturing the Gran Fortress is only the first step in using troops against the barbarian country, and it is not a difficult task for the well-planned and unexpected witch army, the difficulty is how to hold on to this fortress after the pass, how to deal with the 200,000 troops in the Ural Grand Canyon, and the most headache is how to face the anger of Nasri, the king of the Mizusawa Kingdom, although Iona is tough on the lips, but the confidence in her heart is not so sufficient, as Higg said, take one step at a time, anyway, the army is in hand, It is impossible for Nasri to turn against his own witch clan for the sake of the barbarian country, and he can take advantage of the situation to turn over the witch clan and re-sign the terms of the contract with the beast tamer clan in Nasri's favor for the witch clan, as the foundation of the new founding of the Mizusawa country; If Nasri really turns his face, then the witch clan can just vent the breath that has been held for so many years, and use the war to take advantage of the situation to reform the witch clan, as Daniel said, the witch clan is already like this, and they are not afraid of breaking the jar and breaking it, and the words are not rough!

The domestic reaction of the barbarian country is not slow, and the loss of the Gran Fortress has opened the door of their country again, which has been the second time in decades that the Gran Fortress has been lost, which makes them lose face and are very annoyed. The first knock was on Higg's father, Michael, and that time caused endless disasters, and a third of the country was lost; The second time was when Habaisa, with the help of Hig, broke through the Gran fortress again, but fortunately, under the general conditions of the tripartite armistice, Erathia only warned the barbarians and did not have a substantial impact on the barbarians; The third time, that is, this time, the barbarian country that does not have a long memory is almost naked in front of the Mizusawa country again, and if the Mizusawa country sends a long army to drive straight into and disturb the rear of the barbarian country, the unsuspecting barbarian country will become the enemy's horse ranch like the first time it was lost.

Iona has her own thoughts, her purpose is to relieve Higg, the army of Mizusawa is an expert in defense, but field combat is the Achilles' heel, especially after these biological armies are far away from the swamp and enter the arid barbarian country, they will become extremely uncomfortable, and their combat effectiveness will drop sharply. The Mizusawa country will not have any interest in the territory of the barbarian country, and the barbarian country is not at all interested in the humid environment of the backward Mizusawa country, so the two countries without a conflict of interest will often join forces with the rich Erathia.

The Barbarians adopted a two-pronged remedial strategy for the loss of the Gran Fortress, on the one hand, they sent envoys to the King City of Mizusawa to negotiate with the monarch Nasri, and on the other hand, they sent a large army to put pressure on the Gran Fortress, and at the same time informed Arad that his army would put pressure on the Fifth Legion, and the First Legion of the Barbarian State sent an army of 300,000 troops, led by the Legion Marshal Griffin himself, to rush to the Gran Fortress, and twelve days after the loss of the fortress, the troops came to the city.

As soon as the barbarian army arrived outside the Gran Fortress, they began to arrange their troops, build siege equipment, and prepare for the siege, while sending people to the fortress to negotiate with the witch army.

"Iona, quickly withdraw from the fortress, my barbarian country is not to blame for the past, just take it as a joke, otherwise, the day the city is broken, you will definitely be crushed!" The general of the city rode up and yelled.

Iona was about to answer, but Daniel stopped in front of him and said with a smile, "How can the elder of the witch clan surrender his identity to scold such a puppet?" Ignore them, that's our best response! Elder just be ready for battle, I'm really worried about whether we can withstand the enemy's internal and external attacks! ”

"Childe is also a person who has seen big scenes, why don't you even have this confidence?" Iona smiled, "Inside and outside? I'm afraid that I didn't even have gruel to drink in the Ural Grand Canyon two days ago, do you still have the strength to attack the city? As long as we hold the enemy's first strong attack, the enemy will be discouraged, as long as the Urals completely lose their combat effectiveness, the initiative will be completely in our hands, and it is up to us to kill them or stay, I don't believe that the barbarian country will ignore these 200,000 people! Son Daniel, let you see the military might of our witch clan today! ”

Daniel didn't know anything about the army of the witches, there was no baggage to defend the city, and there were no too effective long-range attackers, which was different from relying entirely on military equipment in Erathia, this army completely subverted his cognition, he really couldn't figure it out, what did Iona use to counter the enemy's catapults and ballista phalanxes, and let the enemy's baggage army bombard? No matter how rough the skin and flesh of these creatures are, they are still flesh and blood, and if they are shot by a ballista or hit by a stone bullet from a catapult, they will definitely be killed or injured.

Just when Daniel was puzzled, he only heard Iona order: "Tell the dragon fly detachment and the wyvern detachment to attack"

"Yes!" The herald immediately answered, and then raised the command flag and waved it towards the left and right wings.

I saw thousands of dragon flies and hundreds of flying dragons taking off from the left and right wings respectively, speeding around the enemy's front and rushing towards the opponent's baggage position.

The speed of the dragon fly is too perverted, a third-level class, but it has a seventh-level speed, in addition to dragons, angels, demons and phoenixes, Middle-earth, his speed is actually ranked first, and the sixth-level fire elves of the Hell Abyss Clan, proud of the world, you know, this is a low-value, extremely high-yield third-level soldier!

Those dragon flies form an arrow formation, such as an arrow from the string, directly into the enemy's baggage crossbow or catapult, two or three hundred dragon flies as a group, against a baggage weapon, relying on the dragon flies to focus on biting several important parts of the baggage cart, you can instantly paralyze the wooden catapult or ballista, and it will not play a role.

The army of the barbarian country seems to be very familiar with the strategic play of the witch clan, and the most effective way to deal with this small but large army of dragon flies is the magic of the magician, the wall of fire, the fireball, the ice ring, etc., but the magician of the barbarian country has poor ability, and the shot is slow, and the rapid attack of the dragon fly is unguardable. But the barbarian country is not without other methods, as the nets of traits are pulled up, arranged in pocket arrays, waiting for the dragon flies to drill into it...... Both sides are not vegetarians, and a wonderful offensive and defensive battle is being staged in advance.

The dragon fly is too small, although it has been carefully selected to be domesticated, it is only twenty centimeters long, the body is as slender as a snake, and it has a pair of transparent thin wings, more like a small dragon that can fly, so it is called a dragon fly, the most outstanding class of troops in the Mizusawa country, there is no one. Due to their small size, fast speed, and erratic, ordinary swords, bows and crossbows cannot pose a threat to them at all, although the attack power is not large, but as tactical special forces, if they are used to the extreme, it is simply terrifying and desperate. Now the witches use them to attack the wagons and weave back and forth between enemy lines, and no one can subdue them except the nets in the hands of magicians and soldiers.

The attack of the dragon flies disrupted the deployment of the baggage cart phalanx, and when the soldiers in the phalanx went all out to deal with these annoying dragon flies, they did not notice at all, and the hundreds of flying dragons that followed swooped down and swooped down on the enemy who had already messed up the phalanx.

Although the flying dragon is claimed to be a dragon, it is a sixth-level military class in Mizusawa Country, but it is actually a flying lizard with a huge size, and its forelimbs have developed into a pair of thin fleshy wings, and its flight speed is also very fast, and the sixth-level military that attacks and defends in Middle-earth is extremely general, with a certain toxicity, but not strong. Although the flying dragon is not very competent as a sixth-level class, it is easy to domesticate, and it is relatively easy to obtain this kind of flying lizard in Mizusawa Country, and their cooperation with dragon flies is called the Dragon Xing Shuangsha in Mizusawa Country.

The Wyvern's attack on the baggage phalanx attracted the enemy's ground forces and the aerial Thunderbirds.

The flying axes of the half-orcs on the ground, the stones of the cyclops flew towards the wyvern in the air, and hundreds of thunderbirds also attacked the wyvern team from the air.

Although the Thunderbird of the Barbarian Country is a fifth-level troop, it is extremely excellent, and its status is equivalent to that of the sixth-level troop cyclops, it is not an exaggeration to call it a quasi-sixth-level troop, the speed is comparable to that of a flying dragon, and the attack and defense are not much different, with a thunder and lightning attack, and the real sixth-level troop Wyvern is actually on par.

After attacking the dragon fly on the ground and destroying dozens of baggage trucks, seeing that the goal has been achieved, he turned to the air and dealt with the flying dragon against the thunderbird, although the dragon fly's attack is very weak, but the speed is fast, and the object bitten by it will quickly be poisoned and become extremely weak.

The group of thunderbirds did not dare to be careless, and immediately rose to a high altitude, exceeding the climbing limit height of the dragon flies, and withdrew from the battle, and the first confrontation between the two sides was over.

Dozens of baggage trucks, dozens of soldiers and a few thunderbirds were lost to the people, and the witch side lost more than 200 dragon flies and a few flying dragons, half a catty to eight taels, but the dragon fly detachment had already fulfilled its tactical purpose well and disrupted the enemy's baggage deployment.

Both sides did not invest too many troops in this tentative confrontation, the real big war has not yet come, however, with dragon flies and flying dragons, air supremacy is destined to be in the hands of the witch clan, as long as the enemy's baggage phalanx is stared at, the offensive of the besieging side will be difficult to fully unfold, and can only rely on the cloud ladder to attack, or use the few cyclops as catapults.

Looking at this wonderful opening match, Daniel finally put a stone in his heart. At this time, he finally understood why the name of Mizusawa was good at defense, the reason was that there were preemptive offensive tactics, that is, dragon flies, with the air cover of the flying dragon, if the enemy intercepted with a net, these dragon flies could temporarily dodge, if the enemy wanted to let the baggage car attack, and the net pocket must be removed, and the dragon fly could take action, this speed is extremely fast, there are many numbers, the knife can not be cut, the arrow misses, it can completely suppress and cover the enemy's baggage phalanx, so that the enemy's baggage phalanx has not yet started, and it will abandon its martial arts. The besieging side that was attacked by a preemptive attack, without baggage, the siege force was naturally greatly hindered, and this was the strength of the Mizusawa army. The key is that dragon flies are a third-level class, and the cost of domestication is low, and it is not distressing to die some.

Unlike the soldiers of the barbarian country, the soldiers of the Mizusawa country are completely beast-oriented, that is, they are completely domesticated creatures to fight, and the degree of domestication depends on the ability of domesticated people, which refers not only to the ability to domesticate beasts, but also to tactical literacy, the ability to command these creatures in battle.

The soldiers of the barbarian country are half-beasts, goblins, wolf riders, half-orcs, thunderbirds, cyclops, etc., these have independent wisdom, and the use of tactics in the battle is more flexible than the soldiers of the water country, but they also have their own flaws, taking that the creatures with independent wisdom are afraid of death in the battle, while the biological army of the water country is controlled by the will of the witch or the beast tamer, and they can't get orders in the battle, never retreat, and they don't give up until they achieve their goals, and they are not afraid of death at all!

The soldiers of the Barbarian Country and the soldiers of the Mizusawa Country have their own pros and cons, and Daniel gradually falls in love with these cute biological soldiers of his own people.
