Chapter 253: Iron Will Legion
Thank you to the readers who have been supporting this book, and I'm sorry for taking so long. The book will continue to be written slowly, but the updates will not be as stable as before.
————————————
After Pasteur occupied the village, the troops of the Traveler's House did not attack the other two villages - the troops of the Iron Fist City were not comparable to the troops of Fort Verdeberg, as the Iron Fist City, which had coveted the city of Xianglin for a long time, the troops stationed in those two villages were also very strong, and it was not wise to storm them.
They didn't need to storm either, and since Fort Verdeburg was not able to recapture the village, Lord Forde would have to turn to Iron Fist for help. The Iron Fist will not allow the city of Xianglin to take back the village, and Pasteur and I will only have to wait for the troops of the Iron Fist to attack.
The troops of the Iron Fist arrived as promised.
The troops in the two villages occupied by the Iron Fist City moved, and at the same time, a large number of troops quickly arrived in the territory of the Iron Fist City.
This unit is a well-known legion in Iron Fist City, called 'Iron Will', and there are more than three brigades, basically all of which are elite troops over level 4. In addition to the Legion Commander, there are several high-level heroes.
The Iron Will was set up by the lords of Iron Fist City a long time ago, and it was originally intended to wait for Ive, who was hired from the Black City, to complete the task and cause chaos in the nearby area, and then quickly attack Xianglin City. After the bandits were eliminated, Iron Will ran out of action, but remained nearby.
After receiving the news that Xianglin City even dared to hire troops to take back the village, the commander of the Iron Will was naturally furious and immediately led the legion to help. But instead of getting carried away by the rage and blindly attacking the lost village, he sent his troops to investigate first.
He was surprised by the strength and number of player troops he had detected, and he didn't know where Xianglin City had found so many mercenaries. He was also more cautious not daring to directly attack the villages occupied by Pasteur, so that the legion stopped first and continued to search for information while reporting to the lords of Iron Fist.
Listening to my orders, Pasteur also quickly discovered the Iron Will Legion, and although he was a little surprised by the strength of this legion, he still began to separate forces to contain the Iron Fist City according to the original plan.
The advantage of the Traveler's House is that there are many heroes, many combat missions can be completed in a dispersed manner, and the characteristics of the players also make them more daring, and the two villages occupied by the Iron Fist City quickly became a little chaotic, and even the nearby Iron Fist City territory was a little troublesome.
After a stalemate, the Iron Will Captain found that the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable for them, as they were on the defensive side. So he decided to set out to attack Pasteur's village, but the army was only his legion.
He was unable to gather the forces around him, and the forces of Ironfist had to disperse to protect the buildings in the territory and garrison the fortress.
The Traveler's House is also preparing for battle, and both I and Pasteur know that even if all the villages are reclaimed, it will take a battle to show their strength if the Iron Fist acquiesces to their existence.
-------------------------------
Listening to my orders, Pasteur was willing to fight, gathered the troops of the Traveler's House, and awaited the arrival of the Iron Will Legion.
A group of people with fierce faces and different types and levels of troops appeared first, they had very little equipment on them, but there were many elite units among them, and some elites. This is the slave army of Iron Will, and some rare class of Will Protectors stand in the middle of them.
The Defender of the Will will will will to stabilize the morale of the surrounding troops without demoralization. The lords of the Iron Fist are harsh, but they are also adept at using slaves to fight for him.
Behind the slave units were several squadrons of Crusaders in white armor and Iron Guards in black armor. The Crusader output is stable, the Iron Guard defense is not low in excellent attacks, and the two classes are both easy to coordinate and not easy to kill, and if they are allowed to get close, it will definitely be a nightmare for vulnerable troops.
The area protected behind the Crusaders and Iron Guardians is the vulnerable unit of the Iron Will Legion, which, in addition to the Priest and Marksman, is also formed with a squadron of rare mage class Scorchers.
The Heartburner has an exclusive skill will test, which is a kind of mental magic, and if the unit being cast fails the test, the morale and combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced; On the contrary, if you pass the test, your morale and combat effectiveness will increase. The units of the Iron Will Legion are selected and have a high chance of passing the Test of Will.
In the center of the entire legion, there is a tall knight hero who is covered in heavy armor and even his mount is wrapped in black heavy armor, he is the captain of Iron Will, a level 7/5 hero.
He was accompanied by three squads of heavily armored knight guards like him, a level 6 steel armor knight.
This heavy knight doesn't charge as fast as a normal knight, but if it does, its massive body can crush creatures that stand in its way. Their defense is extremely high, they can directly ram the city wall, and the mounts under them are not ordinary war horses, but wurm.
The whole heavy legion was from far and near, but it was silent, except for the marching of troops and the occasional neighing of mounts. The cold light is solemn, putting a lot of pressure on the players of the Traveler's House, and this is the style of the Iron Fist City troops.
"It looks like a difficult opponent to deal with, worthy of the great lord of the valley plains." Far away from the battlefield, Yuan Mu used treasures to observe the situation on both sides of the confrontation.
He didn't participate in this battle, and the Traveler's House didn't ask him for help, and this battle was also a big event at the Traveler's House, and as an outsider, many people shouldn't want him to be in the limelight.
Yuan Mu is also happy to press the formation next to him, carefully observing the details of the battle, and he also needs to keep learning how to fight. A unit of the Iron Will Legion is keeping an eye on him.
"That's why we always have a sense of crisis, the lords of the Iron Fist City still have a stronger legion than it, and the lords of the Iron Fist are also very aggressive." Mei Mi next to her smiled helplessly.
She was also observing the battlefield with a treasure telescope, and when she saw the slave troops attacking, she turned the telescope to the side of the troops at the Voyager's House.
"These mercenaries you've brought in are going to be put to the test, and they look ...... Somewhat scattered. ”
"Don't worry, it's just the beginning." Yuan Mu smiled absently.
Mei Mi put down the binoculars: "You have a lot of confidence in them." ”
"Hmm." Yuan Mu didn't explain much, the Traveler's House was not a pure mercenary, and if they were not sure that they would not choose to fight the Iron Will Legion, they could abandon the villages they had occupied.
"Okay." Mei Mi believed him for the time being, thought about it and said, "If the situation in Xianglin City stabilizes, where will we go, should we go back to Flower City or stay in the Valley Plains?" ”
"Let's go to the City of Terror."
As soon as Yuan Mu said it, the heroes around him looked at him puzzled, and Tao Snow interjected: "My lord, you didn't promise Tharis and Maruk, and Qimog didn't invite you, what are we going to Terror City for?" ”
Only Mei Mi thought about it, reacted and nodded appreciatively: "The territory of Terror City is indeed a place full of opportunities now, and there is a chance to improve the strength of the territory a lot. But it's also dangerous, and it can also cause bad feelings among the three candidates. ”
"Xiakou City doesn't need to rely on them, it relies on the City of Flowers."
Yuan Mu said with a smile, feeling that Mei Mi's addition was still very effective, and explained to Tao Sinuo:
"You don't have to be invited to the City of Terror, the Grand Duke of Terror has rebelled against the Plains of the Valley, and has turned a large number of its inhabitants into undead, and has made enemies against us, will the City of Knights prevent me from going to battle?
Or are you worried that I will affect the battle for candidates for the Honorary Council? If the three candidates can't even handle my participation, then they don't have to participate in this test. ”
