Chapter 1167: Defense
Serakven, this is a small city located in the eastern part of the demons, the city is not large, and the population does not exceed 40,000. This is a calm eastern town, because it is far away from the front line, the world has not experienced war for nearly a hundred years, and the demon civilians here live a simple but fulfilling life.
But these peaceful lives were broken until a few days ago, a soldier rushed to the city lord's mansion to meet the city lord, which was witnessed by many people, and people speculated about what was going on, but not long after, the city lord on this side directly issued an order, and everyone immediately retreated and marched towards the southeast of the city of Ai Kaiwen, because ...... The undead are coming.
It was a bolt from the blue for the civilians of Serakven, and the first thought of all was how could this be, how could the undead come back to this place. Like the general concept on the mainland, in their opinion, the undead are definitely monsters that eat people and don't spit out bones, and I've heard the news before, people from the west say that the undead and the human race are now at war with the demons, although they heard about it, but after all, they are already inland to the east coast of the city, and the war should be something that can't be touched by them, but now it's really encountered.
Leaving his hometown is a very cruel thing for anyone, and it is also a very unacceptable thing, but the city lord Farah here also showed up in person to explain to the people. The only force that can fight in the entire city of Serakwen is 20 ()0 guards (this is not a regular army, it can only be regarded as a reserve), and the enemy has an army of nearly 30,000 undead, which cannot be stopped by anything, and according to the reports from the soldiers in front, these undead are simply crazy. Almost all the cities that came all the way were spared, and all of them were slaughtered.
Although they did not want to leave their hometown, the threat of death made them compromise, and under the leadership of the city lord Farah, most of the people began to march towards the southeast of the city of Ikevin.
As a result, I was just halfway through when new news came here. The undead are defeated. Yes, in the middle of the night, the troops of the undead clan were attacked by the demon army, and the army was directly defeated, and the demon clan won a great victory. Hearing this, all the populace cheered and shouted slogans like Long Live Emperor Baizera.
So the question is, now that the undead army has been defeated, do they still need to run away? Obviously, most people don't want to leave their hometowns, so it's a little bit of a total. A lot of people said they should just go back.
City Lord Farah also thought about it a little, thinking that since the undead clan here had been defeated, it should be fine. It's been a long time since there's been a war here, and I don't know how dangerous it is, and these naΓ―ve guys really turned back in the end.
And then there was no more, the people here had just returned to the city, and they hadn't thrown their burdens down yet, and the undead had arrived. Yes. It was the troops led by Ryuk who had just been attacked, and they had just received the latest order from Li Huailin. Have them assemble in a nearby city and set up a temporary waypoint, and the nearest city to them is here, Serakven City.
"Lord Lord, the three city gates have all been controlled, and the City Lord's Mansion has also been suppressed." The one who is reporting to Luke here is Shoproan. Although it is said that it started from a small soldier, Xiu Proan's side itself is also flying, plus it is a person introduced by Li Huailin, and in just a few days, it has been promoted to Liuke's personal guard, which is really a rocket-like upgrade speed. Now they're almost all about to become sulfur's adjutants.
"Damn, Xiu Proan blames me for not listening to you at the time." Ryuk here also said with a little regret, at that time, Xiu Proan did tell him that the army has not received decent resistance at all due to the successive victories, so he is a little proud and complacent, and the defense at night is not very tight, so he was beaten by the demons here in a completely defenseless situation, and now he regrets it, as the commander-in-chief, Ryuk here is also very self-blaming.
"Your Excellency, don't talk about this." Xiu Proan here immediately said, "Now the focus is to ensure that this team is now, the demons here don't know when they will catch up, I just saw that this small city is in disrepair, and the city walls are very unstable, is it to retreat to the big city to the west?" β
"......No," Ryuk said immediately, "His Highness's order is to immediately establish a temporary waypoint in a nearby city, and His Highness's order cannot be disobeyed, we must establish a temporary waypoint here." β
"This ......" Xiu Proan here thought about it for a moment, and then immediately said, "There is a teleportation point in the city, of course, it can't be connected to the undead now, it will take some time to repair and adjust, and it is estimated that it will be able to connect tonight." β
"Call someone to adjust it right away." Ryuk here immediately said, "Hurry up and strengthen the walls now, we must defend until night." β
"Yes, my lord." Xiu Proan on this side also immediately began to act.
"Your Lord." Xiu Puluo on this side had just retreated, and a personal guard next to him came up, "There are still about 40,000 demon civilians in the city, what should I do?" β
"There's no time to ignore them right now." Ryuk here thought for a while and said, usually they must have all been slaughtered, but now they really don't have this time, "Let them all go home and stay, as long as they dare to appear on the street, they will be killed directly." β
"Yes, my lord."
All the orders were ordered, and the undead side immediately began to move, and all the people began to gather materials to strengthen the walls, and the soldiers also drove the civilians back to their homes. Ryuk was praying, praying that the demon troops here would not catch up so quickly, and give them a little time to rest, preferably, just wait until the evening......
It's a pity that Ryuk here is usually a person who doesn't ask for God, and it is true that he can't be blessed, and the undead troops here have just entered the city less than 2 hours, and when the preparation of the city wall has just begun, the soldiers came to report that a large number of troops appeared in the north.
"Your own people, your own people......" Ryuk here hurriedly muttered, it is best if Fiona or Dennis's troops receive an order to come here to join them, don't talk about the pursuers of the demons.
The result is quite unfortunate, I'm really afraid of something, Ryuk's prayer was in vain again, as soon as the troops in the north approached, this was 100% not the troops of the undead clan, it was too obvious, of course, this was the pursuit of the demon clan.
"Huh......" Ryuk on the side looked at the black and suppressed demon troops, and also took a deep breath. Last night was too chaotic, and I didn't even see how many troops the demons had when they were attacked, so now let's take a look during the day, this ...... There are too many troops, there is a whole row along the horizon in the north, you can't see the right from the left, this troop, to say the least, there are tens of thousands, this demon clan can still put together so many troops, because the human race and the undead clan don't attack each other's main city, they don't leave troops to defend at all?
Looking at the other party's troops, it is obvious that the other party is not the regular army of the demons, and the composition is really chaotic, although the flags are all the flags of the demons, but the armor and weapons are not unified, it seems to be a patchwork of miscellaneous troops, and when I think that I was actually defeated by this kind of miscellaneous army, Ryuk here also feels a little burned in my face.
Although it was a miscellaneous card, there were many people after all, and as the troops got closer and closer, all the undead soldiers were also a little nervous.
"Prepare to defend." Ryuk here made up his mind to hold on until the night, and he didn't plan to break through, although he was not prepared now, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet.
The two sides didn't have any pre-war dialogue at all, the demon clan had already hated the undead clan to the core, and as soon as the team approached, the demons on this side directly sounded the attack horn, and the troops on this side directly rushed towards the small Serrakwen City.
"Warriors of the undead, don't be afraid, as long as you hold out until night, we will have reinforcements!" Ryuke shouted here, "Get ready to fight!" β
"Roar!" I have to say that the morale of the undead troops is still good, although they have just experienced a big defeat, but in the face of the demons, they still have a great advantage in their hearts, and they are not very afraid when they see the demon troops all over the mountains.
The battle began immediately, and the demon army here immediately began to attack the city, to be honest, the wall of Serakwen City was broken to the point that there was basically no siege weapon, and you could climb it by stepping on the cracks in the city wall, not to mention that the demon army here really had siege weapons, and the undead clan here saw that this was not their own siege weapon? The camp was robbed last night, of course these things fell into the hands of the other party, but I didn't expect the other party to use it immediately, this is really ......
Due to the huge gap in numbers and the fact that the city is really not strong, not long after the battle began, there was a huge crisis in the undead clan here, and the first place to go wrong was the north city gate, because the city gate was too broken, and the people outside attacked and slammed into it, and the gate was a little unbearable.
"Everybody go down to the top door!" Ryuk shouted at once.
The Xiuproan on this side immediately rushed down with his people, trying to block the opponent's attack, but before they could go down, another bad news came.
"My lord, there is a rebellion in the city." The guards here reported that the people in the city couldn't help it when they saw the reinforcements coming, and some bold demon youths saw that the other party was busy defending the city, and immediately began to act.
"Damn, these demon bastards! I knew I would kill them all. Ryuke shouted here.
"Lord Lord......" The undead soldiers all looked at Ryuk, and at this time they began to have the idea of breaking through and retreating.
"I want to ......" Ryuk on this side was just about to hold on to the order, when he suddenly glanced at it, because he saw a black shadow appear in the sky directly behind the demon army in the north.
"What's that?" Luke asked curiously. (To be continued......) R1292
