Chapter 312. Imminent!!!
War has never been a simple word, it means the flow of countless blood and the fall of countless bodies.
This is war, cruel and bloody war! Whether people want to accept it or not, it always announces its arrival in the most decisive way.
At this time, under the invisible darkness, the whole city was still immersed in that great sorrow.
The sacrifice of one soldier after another brought with it the great pain of one family after another in the city, and in this dark and cold night, in the "Spark City", the low cries and wails never seemed to stop for a moment.
Some elderly people and women who learn of the death of their husbands or children are devastated, and their spirits are like a flood that bursts their banks, and then destroys everything mercilessly.
At this time, on the city wall, a suppressed and painful roar was still spreading.
However, these wounded soldiers were soon carried down by their companions and the doctors who hurried over for treatment, but in this world where medical technology is extremely underdeveloped, most of the hard-hit soldiers have already been doomed, but even if there is only a glimmer of hope, no one will choose to give up.
Underneath the city walls, the dark red blood and the mutilated corpses made a terrible picture, and the flowing blood gathered into a rolling torrent that overflowed every piece of land around the city walls, and then soaked into the ground little by little.
In the small pile of corpses, there were still some people who were about to die, still breathing, and from time to time let out a painful moan, but as time passed, the moans became weaker and weaker, and then gradually drowned in the raging dark tide.
At the beginning of this fierce battle, it was the undead warriors who took the lead in launching a fierce attack, and in the face of these devilish existences, fierce resistance was naturally there, but the final result would not change in the slightest.
No soldier could resist these desperate nightmares, not even the most elite Praetorian Guards in the Imperial City, and after a little resistance, the gathered soldiers scattered.
Soon, however, the scattered soldiers gathered again, and fierce fighting ensued, and so on, that Colderson's men were unable to capture the walls.
A bloody battle has evolved to this point, and the situation is no longer even beyond the control of the warring parties.
However, the gap between the two sides like a chasm in combat power still cannot be erased, although these soldiers on the city wall can rely on a moment of blood, courage, and Fudson's elite soldiers, but how long they can hold out, no one knows.
Mayne silently looked at all this in front of her, and suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
The "Shengyao" Kingdom, one of the three major kingdoms of the West Sea, has been founded for more than 200 years, and it has reached the brink of annihilation in the light of day.
However, whether he wants to accept it or not, the "Shengyao" kingdom at this time is at the end of its rope.
And in this deep blood-colored blood, no one knows where the glimmer of dawn is as brilliant as golden light.
The deep darkness was like a curtain spreading, gradually filling the sky, countless stars broke through the night and peeked out, and the night moisture permeated the air, diffusing a sentimental atmosphere.
Outside the "Spark City", in Colderson's tent, the aura of slaughter had reached its peak at this time.
"I admit that I underestimated the army of the Holy Yao Kingdom, and they have indeed shown far more tenaciousness than I expected these days, but-"
After Colderson's eyes looked around at the surrounding generals, his voice paused for a moment, and then continued: "In any case, within three days, the army must advance into the 'Spark City', this is the order!" ”
"Bang!"
The thick palm slammed against the solid wood table, emitting a fierce collision sound, and with it, it was an extremely firm declaration.
Then, a more intense and frenzied offensive also slapped like a tidal wave.
The perseverance shown by the soldiers in "Spark City" was indeed beyond Colderson's expectations.
In terms of combat strength, not to mention those undead warriors like demon gods, it is the more than 10,000 elite soldiers under his command, which is also a lot higher than the city guards in the "Spark City". As for those undead warriors, as long as it weren't for those magicians or vindictive warriors, a dozen or so city guards might not be able to deal with an undead warrior.
If the performance of the more than 10,000 elite soldiers under Colderson is ruthless and ferocious, then those undead soldiers are the real killing machines on the battlefield.
Shot by a feathered arrow and pierced by a sharp blade, the elite infantry under Colderson will naturally endure great pain to give the other party the most fierce counterattack, but the physical injury, for these soldiers, the spirit and body will still be affected a lot.
But those undead warriors showed a majestic immobility like Mount Tai, no matter how many wounds they suffered, they would not have the slightest emotional fluctuations because of this, even if they stabbed the blood-stained blade into the enemy's chest again and again, and let the blood splash all over their bodies, they were indifferent, and would only repeat such actions mechanically.
These undead warriors, in the eyes of all the soldiers defending the city, are undoubtedly the real devils.
And one of the big reasons why "Spark City" has been able to persist until now is that it continues to pile up human lives.
Before the siege of Corderson, nearly 100,000 defenders had actually gathered in the "Spark City", but from beginning to end, in the face of less than 40,000 troops in front of them, they never dared to fight head-on, but always relied on the city wall to refuse.
However, with the tragic collision these days, nearly half of the original nearly 100,000 troops have fallen in a pool of blood at this time, and the remaining soldiers are still struggling to hold on.
And just as this war is intensifying and about to enter the climax, not far from the sea, a maple-shaped drifting island is cutting the waves in the wind, and then constantly approaching.
***********
The encounter with the pirates and the subsequent meeting with Dott were just an episode in the construction process of the city of Paris and the Drift Island, although at this time the Drift Island was sailing at full speed towards the "Spark City", but for this upcoming war, there was not much tension in the city of Paris, and the construction of various facilities on the island was still in full swing.
As for the bloody killing carried out by Tadis in the wooden house, as the other party was beaten into a sieve by nearly a hundred flintlock pistols, the matter basically came to an end, and Chopin did not pay attention to this matter after learning the news of the other party's death, after all, he had too many troubles recently, and he was simply too busy, and at this time, he was even more devoted to the construction of the city of Paris.
With the addition of nearly 2,000 pirate slaves who can be driven at will, whether it is the construction of roads, or the cutting and collection of trees, or the gathering of other resources, or the construction of buildings, it is much faster than before.
However, the addition of these pirates also made Chopin have to put the originally postponed farm upgrade plan on the agenda.
After all, if everything goes well, the number of slaves on Drift Island will further increase, but in the future, in Paris, not only will the number of slaves increase, but the number of residents and soldiers in the city will inevitably continue to increase, so the food problem is naturally the top priority!
"Level 4 Farm: Doubling the amount of territory the farm previously owned.
Currently available research: Thresher: +25% wealth generated from farms, reducing the chance of famine and increasing national prestige. ”
The area that could be cultivated doubled, and Chopin estimated that for a long time to come, he said that he did not have to worry about food.
But in addition, the construction of barracks is also imperative.
Although the French Imperial Army is now divided into two major parts, the navy and the army, the systematic construction of barracks still has to be put on the horizon.
"Tier 1 Barracks currently available: Recessed Bayonets. Equip infantry with embedded bayonets, which cannot fire carbines after the bayonet is loaded, and can recruit dragoons, light dragoons, and colonial dragoons equipped with carbines. ”
With Chopin's idea in mind, the construction of the 1st Barracks was completed.
After the completion of the construction of the level 1 barracks, there were immediately several more types of troops that could be recruited on the system page, but Chopin was a little dissatisfied with this, but clicked on the illusory interface, and then with the rapid flow of energy on the system page, the barracks that were originally just a simple outline changed again.
"Level 2 Barracks, ring bayonets replace the embedded bayonets of the infantry, and when loaded, they can shoot the phalanx, and the infantry phalanx can effectively resist cavalry charges, and increase the prestige of the country, and increase the maintenance cost of all armies in the military course -5%, increasing the prestige of the country."
"Level 3 Barracks Wedge Formation: After the cavalry learns the wedge formation, it can give the enemy more charge damage. The base bayonet can replace the ring bayonet and enhance the prestige of the country.
Barracks Drum March: Coordinate infantry movement through drum beats, increase troop movement speed and national prestige platoon gun shooting in the strategic interface, and allow line infantry to carry out platoon gun shooting. ”
"Level 4 Barracks New Bayonet Drill: +3 charge for all units equipped with bayonets, increase the prestige of the country, replace the original wedge-shaped formation, and make cavalry units quickly turn and reorganize and deploy all army units Recruitment price -5%."
Leveling the barracks to level four in one go, Chopin hesitated for a while, but still didn't choose to continue to upgrade, after all, the further he upgraded, the more energy points consumed, there would be a blowout development.
As for the recruitment of new troops, Chopin hesitated for a while, but after all, he still didn't make a decision, so he simply put this matter down, after all, with their current strength, there are not a few forces in the West Sea that are their opponents, so they are not so anxious about the recruitment of new troops.
However, the construction of the city and the island is still in full swing.
The construction of roads alone requires an unimaginable amount of human and material resources, not to mention the construction of facilities in other aspects.
And a few days later, what I didn't expect was that the two sides, who had never had any intersection, came unexpectedly, and then the war was about to break out-
************
The vast blue ocean, waves surging in and crashing against the rocks, making a roar of the sky and the earth cracking, splashing snow-white foam.
At this time, on this boundless ocean, dozens of warships are like dormant beasts, seemingly quietly waiting for the arrival of their prey.
Wright's figure was half leaning on the deck, his upper body was not wearing any clothes, and his naked strong muscles were perfectly displayed, but at this time, he looked a little bored.
As the captain of the warfleet under the orders of Lord Coulderson, what he originally expected was naturally a fierce sea collision, but what happened next was completely different from what he originally expected.
Since Lord Coldson surrounded the "Spark City", as the news spread intermittently, it was not that there were no forces that did not have a long eye trying to land on the island to help, but the warships these guys were riding on were often sunk by the fleet led by Wright with a thunderous force before they could get close to the island.
At the beginning, it was not possible to reflect any impact, but as wave after wave of forces were defeated, the forces that still had some thoughts in the past retreated, unwilling to continue to meddle.
However, on this day, as the soldiers below passed the news back, Wright, who originally seemed a little sluggish, suddenly came to his senses.
Prey, here!
But what Wright didn't know was that what he was waiting for was not the weak sheep he had bullied in the past, but a fierce beast with a hideous and crazy face.
At the same moment, the turquoise sea, as soft as silk, slightly rippled, from a high place, the smoke waves are vast and endless.
The sea breeze blew through and calmed Chopin's restless mood.
"Your Majesty, the figure of the fleet was found in front, and according to the special sign drawn on it, it should be the fleet that Dott specially mentioned that Colderson left on the coast before."
As if he had discovered something, a soldier immediately stepped forward to inform Chopin.
"It's really ......"
If the Imperial soldiers under his command want to land on the island smoothly, if these sail warships are harassing on the side, the Imperial soldiers will undoubtedly have to pay an extremely tragic price, so this battle at sea is naturally inevitable.
"In that case, then ...... Crush them!! ”
