Chapter 842: The War Begins

The Entagrean army finally moved. (Under iiLoU.)

At the tail end of this winter, shortly after the Enroth Empire's invasion of the Kingdom of Brakkada, the army of Entagri finally surged out of the Ha'mondale region, and the mighty "Dang" and "Dang" air and land marched together.

"Courage! Liability! Honor! ”

Amid the sound of war cries that resounded through the sky, this large army of countless soldiers from different races crossed the mountains of Ha'mondale and slaughtered with great momentum towards Arissanreth, who had been waiting for him for a long time.

The speculation that the Zentagri army would launch an offensive in the 'spring' has finally been proven to be just a speculation of some.

There were also those who associated the seemingly strange actions of the Entagrean Army with the actions of the Enlos Empire in Bracada, but although they guessed the reason, they did not think of the deeper reason.

The working group set up by Chen Jian's "Gate" finally determined Catherine's location.

"We're 81 percent sure!"

The leader of the working group announced the results of their latest work, although he was not 100% sure yet, but Morriel thought that it was enough, and the Entagri Empire did not have time to wait any longer, the army of Enroth was sweeping through the Bracada Kingdom with a strong wind and falling leaves, and if they wanted to seize the rich Great Plains in the center of the continent, the Entagri army would have to move a little faster.

And there is no kind of military operation in the world that can be 100% sure of success, more than fifty percent of the chance of winning, it is enough for Morriel to give it a go, not to mention, Chen Jian has already given her a reassurance, if it really doesn't work, the Entagri Empire can blockade Ha'mondale, with the help of geographical advantages, according to Chen Jian's idea to close the country on the defense line built by the "essence", although this will lose the day, for the time being, can only passively carry out strategic defense, but occupy the geographical advantage, people, plus tactical advantages, With its technological leadership and deep-rooted statehood, the Entagri Empire still has a lot to offer.

That is to say, the current Entagrui army has no worries, it is completely offensive and defensible, as long as the strength is not greatly damaged in the battle, it can be firmly invincible.

So Morriel gave an order, and the Ntagrui army, which had already been a little uncontrollable, moved quickly.

"Is it finally here?"

Finding that the Entagrean army had finally launched an offensive, Catherine's nerves, which had been crumbling, relaxed.

Then, without hesitation, she ordered to abandon all positions on the ground.

This battle, from the very beginning, was a battle of wits and strength between the two sides.

Chen Jian wanted to come to a decisive battle, so as to determine the luck between the two countries, the trend of the war, and the pattern of the mainland, she Catherine followed Chen Jian's wishes and gathered a large army to fight the battle, but she didn't want to be led by the opponent's nose, so although she came, she gave Chen Jian a very beautiful look, she made Arissanret a battlefield that can completely lose air superiority, and she wanted to fight a war she hoped in the place she wanted, even if the time when the war started could not be decided by her.

She successfully turned passive into active, and in turn, Chen Jian, who was "forced", even if he didn't want to fight this battle with her now, he wouldn't be able to, unless Chen Jian didn't want to occupy the Great Plains region.

Next, how will Jian Chen move? Catherine was quite expectant.

Assault, Arissanret will be a huge grinder, and Catherine is confident that the Ntagrean army will shed a lot of blood here; It is better to surround but not fight, which is exactly what Catherine wants to delay time; Surrounded but not attacked, and divided forces to attack the rest of the Erathia Empire, Catherine did not believe that the Entagre Empire currently had so many troops to carry out such a tactic.

"Could it be a decapitation tactic?" Catherine calculated over and over again, "But this seems to be a simple and effective tactic, but it is the most difficult tactic to implement!" ”

Catherine believed that she could make the opponent's decapitation tactic unsuccessful, and she had already guarded against the opponent's hand: "But, no matter what, he will try, right?" ”

With Catherine's orders, before the Entagrean army could reach Arissanret, the Erathian army completely retreated to the inner defense line of Arissanret, and they were in the heart of the mountain, underground, relying on various strong defenses, waiting for the arrival of the opponent.

They did not wait long, for their opponents had already leveled the road for this day, so the march was not slow, and a few days later, on a clear winter morning, the army of Ntagrei arrived at Arissanrite in great force.

The battle of Arissanret has finally begun.

But Morriel was not in a hurry to attack, and under her command, the Ntagrean army first divided its forces to encircle Arissanret from all directions, based on the information they had received earlier, so that they could camp in good time.

The Erathian army did not interfere with the opponent's movements, they sat idly by and watched the opponent's iron barrel besieging Arissanret, and Catherine had already given the order not to take the initiative to attack.

"In the face of the opponent's overwhelming air superiority, any initiative to attack is undoubtedly a foolish act to kill yourself!"

Catherine's judgment was correct, the flying units of the various races of the Entagre Army in the sky, which almost covered the sky, made those generals of the Erathian Army who were still lucky also dispelled the last impulsive thoughts in their hearts - at this time, it was really a "suicide" operation, even a fool could imagine, once the Erathia Army appeared on the ground, it would usher in what a fierce vertical attack the opponent launched from the air, and it was a fool's dream to interfere with the opponent's actions in such a situation.

However, such things have more or less had a negative impact on the morale of the Erathia army, and for many years, for the first time, the proud Erathia army has taken a defensive position to show weakness to the opponent at the beginning of the war, even if this show of weakness is out of strategic considerations.

On the other hand, the morale of the Entagri army has risen to a higher level because of the inaction of their opponents.

"How did the brave Erathians turn into shrunken turtles in front of us?"

"Are all the horses of the knights of Erathia dead? Why did the knights who always move forward go into the "hole" of the mountain this time? ”

"Oh my God, are we fighting in Arissanret or in Negan?"

The soldiers of the Ntagrei Army laughed loudly at their opponents, and at the behest of the officers, all sorts of insulting "sexual" language drifted to Arissanret from all directions.

These provocations made the Erathian army furious, and regarded it as a great shame, but no one was hot-headed because of this, and with Catherine's moderation, this "agitation" of the Entagri army did not have the full effect.

"Catherine is really calm!" Morriel laughed at this, such an outcome had been expected for a long time, but it would be somewhat helpful to be able to demoralize her opponent in this way.

The real battle of attack and defense began the next morning.

The first to attack was the earth mage unit of the Entagri army, and the master mage of the "color" rode a poisonous scorpion lion under the protection of other flying units to the sky above Alexandrite, and threw one after another earth shaking magic on the enemy's head, but as Moryl expected, this seemingly effective attack did not have much effect, and the water mages of the Erathia army resisted with exorcism**, Moreover, it is clear that Arissanret has also been specially reinforced and anti-demonic treatment for this attack method, and the earthquake generated by the magic is not enough to effectively destroy it.

In fact, in the history of war on the continent of Erathia, it is true that the magic of shaking mountains has not been able to shine brightly, and in countless years of war, people have already studied a unique way to build against this magic, otherwise, the underground cities built by the dwarves and the people of the "cave" and "cave" would have been destroyed under this attack method.

"It didn't work!"

Morriel sighed and ordered the magicians to retreat.

The attack was followed by the dragon warriors of the Entagri army, countless black, red, gold, and green dragons, and for the first time the two dragons from Negan and Erimirin teamed up on the battlefield, hovering down from the sky and inflicting dragon fire attacks on all the holes they could find.

The Erathia army immediately fought back, and the giant crossbows that had been set up in the depths of the "hole" began to "shoot" one after another, and the power of these giant crossbows made the dragons have to be extremely afraid and dodge carefully, but due to the speed of "shooting", in the end, the dragon flame attack of the dragons took the upper hand, and soon after, there were no more giant crossbows "shooting" out of each "hole".

The dragons attacked, and the ground assault force of the Entagree Army began to move.

Countless soldiers of the Entagre Army attacked all over Alexandrite from the ground, and their targets were the entrances that had been attacked by the dragons.

And Moriel's beheading plan also began the preliminary foreshadowing work at this time.

Worzak the Barbarian led a force of Imperial warriors to join the first round of the attack.

Only this time, Worzak and the others did not wear the signature golden "color" armor of the Imperial warriors, but wore the standard style of the heavy armor of the Entagre Army, but these heavy armors were no more "color" than those ordinary soldiers, although the style was the same, but after special processing, the defensive "performance" was greatly improved.

In the words that Wozzak learned from Jian Chen, these heavy armors were upgraded and strengthened, and their defensive power was definitely better than the golden "colored" armor of the Imperial Warrior Troops.

Not only is the armor a little special, but the formation of this Imperial warrior unit under Wozak is also a bit special this time.

Some tall Thor trolls wore equally inconspicuous armor and huge shields, and mingled with Worzak's group.

These Thor's trolls are not part of the original Imperial Warriors, but are from the Hulk's forces.

The so-called Hulk troops, in fact, are the expanded Thor troll troops in the Tetalia swamps, in the battle of the Entagri Empire to recapture Ha'mondale, this Thor troll force for its strength against the Elasia cavalry and victory and fame, and then was officially named "Hulk" by Chen Jian, and separately organized, like the Imperial Warrior Force, belongs to the special forces in the Entagri army.

Everyone has a competitive heart, and it is inevitable that there will be a sense of competition when the strong and strong meet, so the Imperial Warriors and the Hulks will inevitably look at each other a little unpleasantly, and the discussion in the army about which of the two troops is more powerful has never stopped, and the two troops are also holding back their strength to compete with each other on the battlefield, always wanting to compare the level through the record, but there is no standard for this kind of thing, and the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides are also different, the Imperial Warrior Army formed an army earlier, and the establishment is relatively complete, The race is complex, flying in the air, walking on the ground, swimming in the water, everything is available, the combat mode is flexible and changeable, after the proposal of Wozzak, the magician is now added, in comparison, it is more suitable for the battle of any environment, and the Hulks are purely composed of Thor trolls, the tactics are relatively simple, although the long-range melee is suitable, but compared to the Imperial warriors, it is still a little worse, but they are better than having a rather rebellious racial ability, and the staying power on the battlefield is beyond the reach of the Imperial warriors.

Therefore, of course, there is no conclusion on which is stronger or weaker.

As a result, both forces wanted to compete well in the Battle of Arissanret, but to the surprise of the two troops, the two competitors had to cooperate for the first time this time.

In Wozzak's Imperial Warrior Army, they were temporarily incorporated into the equivalent of half of the Hulk members, and they trained together for a long time, eating, living and sleeping together, and "crossing" with their fists a few times, and now the two sides are a little sympathetic.

Special equipment, special establishment, to carry out of course is also a special task, the task of Worzak and others, is to cooperate with other brother troops, on the premise of not attracting the attention of the enemy, low-key capture of a certain node inside Arissanret, although this node is located on the periphery, but it is an important part of the follow-up implementation of Moryl's decapitation tactics, related to whether the deeper nodes can be broken through later, the problem of troop delivery, Worzak has performed well in several operations, and the overall situation is good, So he was named by Morryl.

Being reused in such a big war, Wozzak was naturally excited, but when he really arrived on the battlefield, he found that this time the task was far more difficult than he imagined.

Because Alexandrite is under the enemy's painstaking "fine" battalion, it can no longer be simply described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Wozzak and the others parachuted into the vicinity of the target location on a giant dragon, which was located somewhere on the mountainside of the mountain where the original Arisan Rite Fortress was located, and many of the Entagrean army attack troops launched an attack in this way, mastering air supremacy, of course, the Entagrean army must make good use of it, it is impossible to just stupidly launch an attack from the ground, let the enemy condescendingly defend, but the ground attack and airborne attack are launched at the same time.

"It's called an all-around attack!" Before leaving, Vožak also boasted to everyone, using the new terms he had just learned, but not long after landing, Vožak found that it was not the enemy who was being attacked in all directions, but his own group, and the long-range attacks from all directions nailed them firmly to the mountainside.

This situation caught Wozzak a little off guard, he never expected that the foothold he chose would be just at the "cross" strike point of several long-range firepower of the enemy.

On the upper left side of everyone, there is obviously an enemy archer's "shooting" point, at first Wozzak and others did not see it, but the crowd advanced a few steps, then heard a sound of rolling stones, looked up, the upper left side originally looked like a pile of "messy" stones, there was a long row of black holes "holes", and then a burst of "chaos" arrows poured out of it, if it weren't for the Thor trolls who were responsible for defending the flanks of the team in time to raise a giant shield to protect everyone, under this "chaos" arrow, Some people may not be able to survive - these arrows are full of strength, and they are definitely "shot" by the bursting heavy crossbow of the Erathian Empire's mighty continent, and at such a close distance, even if the whole body is heavily armored, it will definitely not be good to be hit.

"It turned out to be a camouflaged 'shooting' hole!" was attacked by the enemy, and Wozak screamed angrily, but before he could scold a few more words, there were a few more sounds, and a similar "shooting" hole appeared somewhere on the right side of the team, and then this time, from it, it was not only the previous crossbow arrows, but also all kinds of colorful "colored" attack magic.

This time the group was not so lucky, and although the Thor trolls were able to defend themselves in time to block the crossbow arrows, the attack magic still caused some casualties to the team.

Subsequently, in different directions, several identical "shooting" positions appeared in succession, and the dense long-range firepower made everyone a little "chaotic" for a while, and the pace of progress had to be stopped.

But these were not the most vicious attacks that Worzak and the others had ever encountered, and what really caused serious attrition to this team was the subsequent sudden appearance of a burst of rolling logs and rocks from above.

Seeing countless large stones and large wooden stakes suddenly appear, smashing down the heads of themselves and others with a loud rumbling sound along the hillside, everyone's faces suddenly changed greatly.

At this critical juncture, the brave Thor trolls once again turned the tide, they took the giant shield in their hands, quickly came out of the crowd, and then squatted down, flattened the giant shield, and used the giant shield and their own body to build a wall for everyone.

"Hold on! Resist! Pay attention to the angle of the shield! ”

The boulders and trees rolled down heavily, smashing on the shields of these Hulks, and found a dull loud sound, and then bounced up heavily, drawing a parabola, and landed behind everyone, and the astonishing maneuver from the shields made many Thor trolls snort, and some of the corners of their mouths were bloodshot.

Behind them, most of them had escaped by hiding behind the Thor's trolls in time, but some of them were a little slower and were finally struck, screaming and rolling down the hill with their heads and stones.

Others were in this "chaos" and "chaos", because they ignored those long-range attacks that originally came from other directions, and were not properly protected, and were "shot" to the ground by dense crossbow arrows, or flew out by magic.

No matter how well-trained Rao is Worzak and the others, they have encountered such unfavorable situations in a row, and they are finally a little "chaotic".

Wozak later learned that the Erathia army had designed a mechanism on the ramp early, prepared a large number of rolling wooden stones to place in it, and made a clever cover-up, as soon as the Entagre army launched an attack, they activated the mechanism, these rolling wooden stones came into play, the tactics were very simple, but very effective, although it was only a "sexual" attack, but almost half of the losses suffered by the Entagre army in the first "wave" attack were caused by these rolling wooden stones, Not every attacking force has the help of Thor trolls like Worzak, and ordinary troops really don't have a good way to deal with such an attack.

It was only in the first round of attacks that the Ntagari army was hit by a bloody outpouring at Arissanret.
