Chapter 721: Malodia's Counterattack
Chapter 721: Malodia's Counterattack
There had not been many elven soldiers who had broken into the hall before, but Ivozak didn't notice that there were so many enemies trying to enter the hall from the passage outside.
Although the light was a little dim, it was not very real, but Wořak could clearly tell that in the passage in front of him and the staircase behind him, there were countless elven warriors coming.
And Wozzak also noticed that among the attacking enemies, there were some elves wearing black leather armor and green cloaks, holding odd-shaped longbows.
It was the Elven Clan's most elite unit, the Guardian of the Jungle who had left a lasting impression on Worzak during the Battle of Abbaden.
Worzak remembered very clearly how these elite elven warriors with excellent archery skills used their strong bows and arrows to shoot their heavily armored comrades on the black ground of Abaden.
Realizing that he was standing in a bad position and could easily be targeted by these ranged killers, Wozzak quickly stepped back and re-entered the hall.
At this time, the battle in the hall was also coming to an end, and the number of elven soldiers in the hall was getting smaller and smaller under the imperial warriors under Wozzak and the more and more soldiers of the Ntagre army who entered the hall.
"Go and report to the upper authorities that this may be an important communication artery for the enemy on this level, so let them send more people here, remember that there must be a magician"
While beckoning Dulin and the others and other soldiers to come and guard the entrance and keep the enemy out of the hall, Worzak beckoned a harpy and asked her to report her findings to the top, and the young barbarian realized the importance of this hall on this level of the fortress by the number of enemies, so he decided to stand by and wait for reinforcements.
Worzak's report was shortly thereafter delivered to Christine, who was nervously directing the battle.
At this time, the attack on the fortress of the Falls City by the Entagri army had been fully launched.
Christine didn't just focus on the top of the fortress, although the attack from there was indeed unexpected by the enemy, but Christine didn't dare to expect to be able to take down this strong fortress quickly with just such a small means.
In fact, for Christine, the attack on the top of the fortress is just a secondary tactic in his plan, and his main attack direction is not there.
Having succeeded in attracting the enemy's attention with an attack on the top of the fortress, he sent his other troops to storm the fortress from other positions.
While sending more soldiers to reinforce the position that Vozak had mentioned, his real killer weapon finally appeared on the battlefield.
A huge siege machine is being assembled at a rapid pace.
Christine didn't just ship the ground troops to the city of Falls in containers, but he also brought with him the latest work of the Imperial Technicians, a giant battering ram that was made with the most advanced mechanical technology currently mastered by the Entagri Empire, which was more powerful and easy to assemble and disassemble.
This battering ram needs the assistance of the dragon, plus the operation of many soldiers, in order to assemble the originally separate parts, and it needs to be operated by the dragon's dragon power to launch an attack, Christine asked people to transport the parts of these battering rams directly through the outer walls of the waterfall city, and transport them to the edge of the fortress before assembling, otherwise, the big guy who has completed the assembly will not be able to pass through the city gate at all, and even if he can pass, the city gate has long been blocked by the elves who are bent on delaying time.
The appearance of the giant battering ram of the Entagri army shocked the elves in the fortress of the city of waterfalls, and they never imagined that in the case of their own arson and burning of the forest, the enemy army would manage to bring siege equipment from the air, and it was such an amazing battering ram.
"Destroy that thing for me"
After seeing the enemy's action of assembling the battering ram from the magic screen, Elisa, who was already annoyed by the fact that the battle on the top floor was not going well, screamed in frustration.
Although the outer wall of the fortress has been strengthened in terms of magic resistance to magical attacks, this purely physical attack method can only be hard to shake by relying on the fortress itself.
With the sheer size of the enemy's battering ram, Alisa was confident that the outer walls of his fortress would not last long if that thing was wielded, and he could clearly see how difficult it was for the dragons to carry the assembled battering ram body.
The elven troops defending in that direction immediately began to attack the battering ram that was still being assembled after receiving orders from Elisa, using special rockets and various magic spells to launch a fierce attack on the battering ram itself and the soldiers of the Entagre Army who were assembling it with the help of the shooting holes in the outer wall of the fortress.
However, this attack was not successful, Christine dared to put his treasure battering ram under the nose of the enemy to assemble, naturally he was fully prepared, nearly a hundred dragons are responsible for the safety of the battering ram, they used dragon flames to attack one by one on the fortress, these hot dragon flames from the shooting holes straight to the inside of the fortress, although because of the angle and size of the shooting holes can not effectively cause too much damage to the elven soldiers in the fortress, but effectively block the attack of the elven soldiers.
Even if the elves attacked from some of the shooting holes that the dragons did not notice, they did not inflict any casualties on the Entagrean army, and dozens of Ntagrean mages were guarding the perimeter of the battering ram, using their magic to protect their soldiers from enemy feathered arrows and intercept the magic cast by the elven mages against the battering ram.
The unsatisfactory sabotage made Elisa's brow furrow.
The battle didn't start out in the way he expected, which left him a little confused.
He wasn't a very good commander, his abilities were mediocre, and he had been able to achieve so many victories in the past thanks to Malodia's behind-the-scenes operations.
But now Malodia is not by his side.
Accustomed to relying on Malodia, Elisa didn't know what to do at this moment, facing all kinds of unexpected situations.
"My lord, please give me some people, and I will rush out and destroy that battering ram."
An impulsive elven officer asked Elisa to fight like this, and whoever it was had already seen at this time how great the enemy's battering ram was to the fortress.
"No, absolutely not, you can't succeed"
Elisa rejected the suggestion that bordered on suicide, knowing all too well what would happen to the elven soldiers who rushed out of the fortress on foot in an attempt to destroy the enemy's battering ram with the enemy in the air superior and with so many dragons in the air.
"But my lord, if you continue like this......" The elven officer still wanted to fight, but was rudely interrupted by Elisa.
"Say no more," the elven commander roared, but even he couldn't figure out whether his anger was directed at the enemy's strength or his own incompetence, "give up the operation of destroying the enemy's battering ram, and withdraw all the soldiers defending in that direction to the fortress is so big, I don't believe they can use that damn battering ram to attack all the way in"
Elisa's anger silenced the elven officers around him, Elisa had always disguised himself well, and his past exploits had also made him quite prestigious among his subordinates, and no one dared to say anything about his anger.
"The enemy's battering ram is certainly incredibly powerful, but its size dooms it to the impossibility of causing more damage to the interior of the fortress, as long as we can hold the inside of the fortress without losing it, we can not waste our precious forces on fearless attacks."
Although he was a little unsure whether his judgment was right or wrong, Elisa decided to deal with it on the premise that Malodia would hold on to the inside of the fortress.
His abandonment made the Entagree's siege ram assembly go more smoothly, but soon, before the battering ram was completely completed, a brave and strategic assault was launched against the giant battering ram outside the Cascade fortress.
"The enemy only has one such battering ram, destroying it will allow the city of waterfalls to hold out for a longer time in this bitter battle."
After a period of observation, Malodia finally came to such a conclusion.
Ever since she attacked with the small number of flying troops in the city of Falls, Malodia has been trying to get close to the incoming Entagre army, but after discovering the actions of the Entagre army's flying unit, she realized that the enemy had any unexpected actions, so she decisively abandoned her original plan, and instead followed the Entagre army's flying unit with her men, and turned back.
The Entagrean army, which was hurrying away, did not notice the existence of Malodia's small army, and Malodia was very clever enough to take his small army and fly to a height that the Entagrean army could not even imagine, secretly monitoring the movements of the Entagrean army.
Even Malodia was taken aback when she discovered that the enemy had transported far more troops than she expected to the city of the waterfall in such a strange way, which convinced her that her judgment was correct, because in this case, it would not make much sense for her to continue to entangle with the enemy's ground forces that had left behind.
Seeing that the enemy army was strong, Malodia knew that with the three hundred dragons and thousands of silver Pegasus knights in her hands, she could only fight hard to deliver food to the enemy, so she kept hidden, she led her troops to avoid the enemy's scouts, and hid in a nearby forest outside the sea of fire, waiting for the fighters, and after the Ntagre army attacked, she quietly led the troops to the high altitude above the waterfall city.
She intends to use the forces at her disposal to perform decapitation tactics on the enemy.
She believed that if she could kill Christine, the enemy's commander, on the spot, she would definitely cause the enemy to be chaotic for a long time.
Malodia didn't dare to contact Elisa and tell him about her plan, because she was afraid that Elisa would do something stupid because she knew all this, she knew too well how impulsive the nobleman who was always lazy would become once he lost his due calm, and she only hoped that Elisa could stay in the fortress and never go to battle.
Elisa was greatly relieved that she couldn't hold on, but then, when the Entagre army began to assemble the giant battering ram, the female elf couldn't stay any longer, and the threat of this battering ram to the fortress was too great.
Although from the beginning to the present, Malodia never thought that the Elven Kingdom would have too many chances to win in the battle of Waterfall City, and even she did not think that the Elven Kingdom would have the upper hand in the next series of battles against the Entagri army, she still did her best to help Elisa tide over this difficult time.
In order to keep Elisa alive for a longer period of time, she devised various countermeasures, even going so far as to burn the forest of Notda, in order to prevent the ground forces of the Entagre Army from reaching the city of Falls in the short term.
However, the response of the Entagrean army was completely unexpected, and due to Christine's ingenious arrangement, the Entagrean army not only transported a considerable number of ground troops to the city of the waterfalls, but even transported a giant battering ram.
High in the air, with the help of the Magical Vision, Malodia was able to see the enemy's attacks on the top of the fortress and the assembly of the giant battering ram, and with Christine protected by the army, she was not sure that she would succeed in a single blow.
So she turned her attention to the giant battering ram that was still being assembled.
The enemy did a good job of protecting this battering ram, but it was only against the attacks of the defenders inside the fortress.
Moreover, the location of the battering ram at this time also made it far easier for Malodia to sabotage it than to sneak attack Christine.
After a little thought, the female elf made a plan.
Soon, the scouts of the Entagri discovered that an elven flying force was moving from a certain direction towards the city of the falls.
The news was immediately reported to Christine.
"How can an enemy flying unit appear nearby at such a time?" The news from the scouts puzzled Christine, who was a little happy that the battle was going in his favor, but soon, the Imperial Lieutenant General remembered that there had been information that there was an unknown flying unit in the city of Falls, and that the enemy's flying force that had appeared now seemed to have similar strength as the previous information had said.
"Is it the army? What do they want to do? But there are only a few thousand, and there are not many dragons."
With this question in mind, Christine, who was no longer afraid to take the enemy lightly by the amazing wood-burning tactics of the elven army in the city of waterfalls, sent a flying force far outnumbered by the enemy army to intercept the enemy.
He planned that no matter what tricks the enemy wanted to play, he would first use lightning speed to destroy this enemy with absolute superiority.
At this moment, Christine did not realize that the real target of the enemy was actually his own giant battering ram, which was almost complete.
"It's time to attack"
After discovering from the magic screen that the enemy's flying unit had been diverted by the decoy force she had sent out, Malodia broke off and gave the order to attack.
At this time, there were only nearly a hundred golden dragons and hundreds of silver Pegasus knights left by Malodia's side.
Malodia knew very well that in the face of the enemy's superior forces, her own strength was really a bit insufficient, so she scattered the forces in her hands, and she herself took the elite of them and continued to hide in the sky, preparing to launch an opportunistic surprise attack on the enemy's battering rams, but sent most of the troops out to attract the enemy's attention.
In this way, she successfully lured away a large number of enemy flying troops, especially the most powerful Negan dragons, creating a more favorable battlefield environment for her surprise attack.
With her order, nearly a hundred golden dragons and hundreds of silver pegasus, at the same time, gathered their wings and fell towards the battlefield below.
Directly below them lies the location of the Entagre's giant battering rams.
At the same time, the Ntagrui Army, which had been alerted by the appearance of the enemy's flying troops, discovered a new enemy from the opposite direction of the previous enemy attack, because from that direction, there was a strong fluctuation of magical elements.
"The enemy is very high in the sky and watch out for magic interception, don't let the enemy destroy the battering ram with magic"
The mages of the Entagre Army were attracted by this sudden elemental fluctuation, and the mages who guarded the side of the battering ram were even more formidable.
But what these mages didn't know was that this was just another ploy by Malodia to distract the enemy's mages from her surprise attack in order to cover her surprise attack.
When the soldiers near the battering ram focused their attention in a certain direction due to the influence of the magicians, they did not realize that just above their heads, a small group of enemies was approaching the battering ram they were protecting at an alarming speed.
Diverting some of the enemy's flying units, using the mage to attract the enemy's attention, and using the double cover of the dark night sky and the smoke from the forest fires, Malodia and her elite small troops managed to approach their target.
When the Entagrean finally discovered their presence, there was nothing left to stop them from launching an attack on the giant battering ram.
The mages of the Entagre Army threw all kinds of magic that they had prepared for a long time to intercept the enemy's magic attacks at this sudden and well-targeted enemy, but in front of the golden dragon, which was immune to most magic attacks, such attacks were not enough at all.
Many of the Entagre's flying units tried to intercept the enemy, but the enemy was too fast to be caught off guard, and their interception was not successful, but some of them were accidentally injured by their own magicians, and the enemy also desperately fought back with dragon flames and bows and arrows.
In the end, amid the exclamations of the soldiers of the Entagri Army, their giant battering ram, which was only one of the last steps before it could be put into attack, collapsed in the continuous attack of dozens of golden dragons, and immediately fell into a sea of fire that rose into the sky because of the dragon flames of the golden dragons.
