Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Attack and Defense of Canon

On the walls of Canon City, Aegas led a group of heroes, looking at the reinforcements that were returning to the castle, as well as the army of skeletons a few hundred meters away, and couldn't help but gasp.

Originally, after receiving Bi Jiaqi's request for help, he already had a general guess about the number of skeleton soldiers, but at this time, seeing the boundless white wave, everyone knew that there was an insurmountable gap between their estimate and the actual situation.

"Immediately mobilize more ranged troops, increase the number of guards on the city walls, and mobilize all the war machines in the city to annihilate the upcoming skeleton army with all their might, and at the same time order the various sub-cities below to send reinforcements to Canon City, and execute it immediately" Although he was surprised by the number of skeletons, as the leader of one of the forces, Aegas still reacted quickly, and one by one battle orders were conveyed to each unit, and at the same time, there were heralds, and they were speeding towards the various sub-cities.

"Attack, Attack All"

The gate slowly closed as reinforcements entered, blocking the army of skeletons who had come to the city. At the same time, one after another attack orders were issued from the mouth of the hero in charge of the commander on the city wall.

The city wall of more than 30 meters high, like a mountain, blocked the way of the skeleton soldiers, and at the same time, the defenders on the city wall shot arrows like rain, and the skeleton soldiers under the city, just brandished the rusty iron sword in their hands, and before they fell on the city wall, they had been turned into broken bones by the dense arrow rain.

"Haha, are these damn skeletons here to give us experience? Kill me hard" A new hero with a direct subordinate unit responsible for guarding a section of the city wall, watching his rapid growth in experience, couldn't help but kill even harder.

Listening to the shouting colleagues on the city wall, the heroes in the city who were originally waiting to take over the task of defending the city couldn't help but feel a little anxious, wishing that the troops on the section of the city wall that they were responsible for taking over could quickly retreat and replace them with their own troops.

At this point, Jin Tao's plan to divert the water from the east has been completed, but in its current form, it seems that it has not played a substantive role at all, but it is like sending experience to Ganon City.

But this is not the case, in the Holy Dragon City, the reason why Jin Tao and them can be unscrupulous, harvesting skeleton soldiers from the cliff platform and gaining experience, is not because of anything else, it is the defense brought by the huge mountain.

The situation in Canon City is a little different, although the number of troops in Canon City is more, and the killing speed of skeleton soldiers is also faster, but it is still inevitable to be attacked by some lucky skeleton soldiers, attacking the city wall, although the effect is not very obvious, but it can't stand the increase in the number of times, plus the city wall can not be repaired during the battle and the skeleton soldiers attack without gaps, from the beginning of the battle, it is destined that Canon City is impossible to hold, it is nothing more than the difference in how long it can last.

The offensive and defensive battle of Canon City has lasted for more than a month, and the number of skeletons killed is almost no less than a few million, and the experience points gained have greatly improved the level of troops and heroes in Canon City, making the strength of Canon City have been greatly improved in just one month.

In the Congress Hall of Canon City, all the heroes who are not worthy of duty gather here to participate in the banquet organized by the city lord Aegas, celebrating the great growth of Canon City's strength.

"Report to the city lord, the defenders of the city wall have sent back the news, saying that the city wall is damaged, and it may not last long" When the banquet was going on to the high ~ tide, a herald brought an explosive news, which made the entire hall silent.

"Broken walls? Damn, how can this be? The order went down, all the melee troops gathered, opened the city gates, and cleaned all the skeleton soldiers near the city walls for me, and repaired the city walls" Egas, who was sitting on the throne, was surprised, but he immediately reacted in the most correct way.

As the melee troops in the city were assembled, the gates of Ganon City were suddenly opened, and the skeleton soldiers who had originally gathered near the city gate instantly poured into the city, but they were quickly crushed into bone powder by the charge of the brute bull army as the vanguard force.

The brutal bull troops that rushed at great speed rushed out of the city gate quickly, and along the way, all the objects that blocked the front were crushed into pieces by the violent brute bulls.

Immediately after the bull, there were a large number of monitor lizards, and the monitor lizards quickly occupied the passage opened up by the bull, and at the same time cooperated with the dragon flies in the air and the bipedal dragon king to expand the scope of the passage and provide enough combat space for the follow-up troops.

As the ranks inside the city continued to pour out, a large number of skeletons close to the city walls were killed, and the battlefield began to be pushed to the rear for a while.

"Repair the city wall" Sitting on the throne, Egas, through the city's management system, always pays attention to the options of the city wall, and after the skeleton soldiers are suppressed, the operation authority on the city wall is finally opened, and Aegas immediately gives the order to repair the city wall.

Following Egas's orders, the castle management system began to repair the walls, and at the same time a countdown appeared - 1 hour.

In other words, it takes an hour to repair the wall, which also means that the melee troops outside the city will have to hold on for an hour before they can withdraw to the city.

An hour later, the light flashed on the city wall, and it was restored to its intact state, and at the same time, the troops responsible for suppressing the skeleton soldiers began to withdraw in batches, the first to withdraw was the ground troops, with the cover of the air troops, and at the same time, there were some of the troops left behind, responsible for delaying time, the evacuation of the ground troops was very smooth, and after the ground troops entered the city, the air troops did not stay, and also returned to the castle.

The entire battlefield, with the retreat of the large army of Ganon City, the form was reversed in an instant, as a broken force, it only lasted for more than ten minutes, and it was broken through the defense line by the skeleton soldiers, and then it was wiped out by the skeleton soldiers who surrounded it.

With the elimination of the troops after the break, the entire battlefield returned to the original trajectory, but the difference is that the mentality of the heroes of Ganon City has changed, and it is no longer the same as before, seeing the skeleton soldiers, it is like seeing experience beckoning to them, this hand, in their hearts, has become a little terrifying.

This change, as the number of casualties in melee units is counted, only deepens the heroes' fear of skeletons.

In the hour of suppressing the skeleton soldiers, the troops sent out of the city did not suffer much damage, but when they retreated, the number of the broken troops left behind reached about one-half of the troops leaving the city, plus the losses in the battle, this operation out of the city lost more than two percent of the troops out of the city.

Although the troops out of the city this time are only a small part of the strength of the entire Canon City, and the troops lost are only a few percent of the total, it is not something that can be replenished overnight, and such a consumption is indeed a big blow to the Canon City.
