Chapter 135: Soldiers Descend on the City
Lordaeron Fortress, a heavily defended fortress. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Its only gateway between the Tirisfard Glades and the Northshire, and the last bulwark of the royal city of Lordaeron against foreign invasions.
The armies of most of the kingdom have been assembled here, and they will make a final effort to protect Lordaeron.
Gavinrad stood at the city gate, looking into the distance, and could faintly see the army of the undead in darkness.
After the capture of Stratholme, the Scourge was greatly strengthened, and there was no doubt that this was a terrifying thing for Lordaeron.
Archmage Modra walked up to Gavinrad, and behind her were all the reinforcements from Dalaran: about three hundred mages, but there were not many high-level mages among them, most of them were mid-level or low-level mages!
Gavinrad was a little disappointed, he would like to think that Dalaran could give more effective assistance, and if more than a dozen archmages participated in this battle, it would have a great impact on the situation...... However, according to Modra's explanation, Archmage Antonidas is working on a very important plan that is essential to crush the undead invasion.
The entire Lordaeron fortress has gathered almost more than 6,000 Lordaeron soldiers of all kinds, which is also the largest strength that Lordaeron can gather in a short period of time, Gavinrad is a little skeptical that so many soldiers can completely defend this barrier!
"O Holy Light, help us to win!" He prayed silently in his heart.
……
The Dreadlord Barnazar, who is at the forefront of the Scourge army.
For Banazal, this was the first time he had commanded a battle of this magnitude, thanks of course to the fact that Tikdios had suffered no small injuries in the battle against Stratholme!
At the same time, this is also an opportunity, if he can take advantage of this to conquer the entire human kingdom in one fell swoop, there is no doubt that it will be of great help to him to improve his status in the legion!
Maybe it won't be long before the three Nasrezm lords of the Legion will become four? Banazal thought with some amusement.
The mighty army of the Scourge has already headed forward, and this army is not really strong, especially in terms of individual combat effectiveness; But they are terrible, because they have no fear, no thoughts, and can be replenished at any time from the opponent's side......
A fortress appeared in front of Banazal, blocking the way to the royal city of Lordaeron.
This is a rather dangerous fortress, and on top of the fortress, a large army of humans is densely stationed.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Banazal's mouth, how could such a fortress stop his army!
"Attack!" He gave the order.
……
"Marshal Gavinrad, the undead attack has begun!" Archmage Modra reminded easily.
This was the first tentative attack, and a band of ghouls swarming towards the walls at a very fast speed.
Without Gavenrad's order, the archers on the city walls launched a direct counterattack, and a rain of arrows shot into the ghouls, and a few rounds of bow and arrow fire caused them to fall at least half.
In other words, an ordinary army, with such a tragic loss, would have collapsed a long time ago.
However, the ghouls were undaunted and rushed towards the walls...... They could not climb the high walls, so they could only stare in vain at the bottom, and then they were shot into a sieve by the soldiers' bows and arrows.
After defeating a group of undead so easily, many soldiers suddenly became much more relaxed...... These creatures are not as scary as they think!
However, Gavin Raad's face did not change in the slightest, and he knew that the offensive would be much more terrifying than this one.
Without giving any respite, the second wave of attacks began!
Huge white stitch monsters attacked the city walls at the front, followed by large armies of undead.
The archer's arrows landed on the Stitchers, but unfortunately did not do much damage to them.
Many of the stitching monsters are still carrying the hammer in their hands, and it seems that they are preparing to forcibly capture the gate!
"Lady Modra!" Gavinrad glanced at the archmage beside him.
Archmage Modra nodded, she knew it was time for Dalaran's mages to take effect, and commanded the mages to use fire spells, and one after another huge fireballs smashed down from the city walls and landed on the Stitching Monster's body!
This time the stitching monsters were not so pleasant, and many of them were directly burned off the white cloth outside by the flames, and then turned into a pile of rotten meat.
The undead in the back were exposed to the archers, and the rain of arrows fell, firing back at them!
The second wave of the offensive lasted for about half an hour, and after many mages had their mana prostration, the undead's offensive completely retreated!
The gate is still intact, the loss of soldiers is not large, and the overall war is relatively smooth!
Some priests rushed over to help everyone regain their strength!
……
"This damn fortress!" Banazar spat hard, he didn't expect the humans to put up such a fierce resistance!
"Where's the meat grinder, why haven't you come here yet!" He shouted angrily.
"Lord Banazal!" The leader of the necromancer, the Dark Dean, Gardin, replied, "The speed of the meat grinder is too slow, it is still in the location of Andorhar, and it is estimated that it will be a few hours before it arrives!" ”
"Forget it!"
For Banazal, he is not without help!
The third wave of the offensive began, and the same stitching monsters were in front and the undead were behind.
This time, the soldiers and mages on the city wall had already prepared, especially the mages, who adopted the method of attacking in front and resting in the back in two waves, which effectively prevented the problem of excessive mana consumption.
Watching the huge stitching monsters turn to ashes under the mage's fireballs, Gavinrad couldn't help but wonder, could this be the full power of the undead?
Suddenly, only a few loud noises were heard, which made Gavinrad's face change.
I saw that several holes suddenly appeared in the city wall, and then one after another huge spiders crawled out of the holes.
Many mages who were caught off guard lost their lives after being attacked by a giant spider in their backs!
"Damn, what kind of monster is this!" Gavinrad hurriedly raised the war hammer and led the paladins to rush over, melee with the giant spiders!
"Be careful, in the air!" I only heard Archmage Modra scream.
In the middle of the sky, a black patch flew towards the Lordaeron barrier.
Gargoyles, there were so many of them that some archers and mages attacked the air and shot down quite a few, but there were many more!
At the same time, on the ground, there are more and more Stitch monsters and undead soldiers who are attacking the city walls.
Due to the distraction of the guards, many of the stitching monsters had already arrived at the gates and began to bang on them......
The real battle has begun!
