Chapter 030: Firmness
There was not a single cloud, not a single wind, and all the trees stood listlessly and lazily. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAlthough it was snowing outside the mountain, the whole underground world was very hot, and the earth was like a steamer, so hot that it was breathless. The oncoming wind rushed like a heat wave, as if a spark would cause an explosion.
The underground magma was like a furnace, baking the earth hot, and even the air was hot, and everyone, including Sauron, was sweating.
"The phalanx of spears meets the enemy, and the crossbowmen prepare—"
With Sauron's order, the legion infantry of the Dragon Court Legion looked resolute, but for the six thousand young army pikemen, there was not only the determination to die, but also the fear before the battle, and the sadness of parting from life and death on the faces of many people!
Despite the complicated expressions on the faces of some of the recruits, today, they are all going to be baptized in blood!
Recruits are always on the front line of the battlefield, and it has always been the military prohibition of the Dragon Court Legion. For a recruit who has never been on the battlefield, only by being tested by blood can he become a qualified soldier!
"The majestic sky is really like iron, and now we are stepping forward from the beginning", yes, the vicissitudes of the sea show the true character of the hero.
After going through many difficulties and dangers, the more exhausted the mountains and rivers become, the more pride and courage will become, and Sauron is ready to lead the team to the final victory!
The black and slaughtering steel city in front of him, and the dense iron bumps of the mountain armor people, are like a huge bloodthirsty beast. The magma is as bright red as blood, forming a majestic, iron-blooded picture.
The dark and dreary sky, glowing with a hot yellow light, made people dizzy.
"Humans, why did you invade the territory of the mountain armor people?"
When they saw the precision bow and crossbow, as well as the existence of powerful minotaurs, they immediately aroused the vigilance of the three major clans of the mountain armor people.
The carapaces are an ancient and autistic race, and have always been reluctant to come into contact with humans and other races, let alone discover the territory that the carapaces hide beneath the surface.
"Could it be that the mountain armor people can't even keep the last bit of civilization fire?"
Aska, the patriarch of the Stone Fist Clan, had mixed eyes when he looked at the other two companions.
"Hmph, the mountain armor people have never surrendered, and they will never surrender! We will fight to the death, even if it is hopeless. "The Stronghammer Clan's mountain armor patriarch, Ofg, has a temperament as fierce as a volcano.
The mountain armor people of the Hammer Clan have a fiery red beard and a personality that is also the most violent existence among the three clans!
The most desired death for the Hammer Clan is to fall in a battle with no hope of victory, and there are witnesses who can one day compose his deeds into a war song. To put it simply, the Hammer Bloodline Mountain Armor is a group of madmen who are eager to fight.
"Ofg is right, in order to keep the territory, we have no choice but to fight!"
The patriarch of the Hantie Clan, Ibek, said gloomily.
………………………………………………
"Humans, why did you invade the territory of the mountain armor people?"
Hearing the dwarf's question, Sauron stepped forward, protected by a hundred infantry. Judging from the current situation, if the two sides meet hard, they will inevitably end up in a lose-lose situation. If there is a turnaround in this battle that does not have to be fought, it is the best.
Despite this, Sauron still has the Ring Spirit with him just in case. If the Yamajia Legion dares to make a move, the Ring Spirit is even sure to kidnap the leader of the other party at the first opportunity. Make it difficult for the opponent to start with the rat trap.
Under the confrontation between the two sides, Zoro approached the front of the Shanjia army, and even boldly reached within two steps of the patriarchs of the three major clans of the Shanjia, and secretly opened the mind-reading technique of spiritual magic. So far, few people have been unsuspecting about the sudden stinging in their heads.
Sauron's actions caused a commotion among the carapace troops, who numbered more than five thousand in number, plus three thousand Pangolin archers and mechanical bird mounts under their butts.
To be targeted by 3,000 mountain-piercing archers, to say that Sauron was not afraid, is pure deception.
But if you want to become a hegemon, sometimes life is like a big gamble. The meager strength possessed by the Dragon Court at present makes Zoro have to take this risk!
"Human, you are so daring!"
"Are you despising the mountain beetles?"
"Human, you won't go back alive again......"
The patriarchs of the three clans of the Shanjia people watched with astonishment and indifference as Zoro kept approaching, within twenty paces of them.
The rampaging Hammer Patriarch Ofg had even secretly lifted the battle axe in his hand.
"The carapaces are a glorious and proud race, and have the ability to defend themselves on the battlefield against all enemies. On the other hand, the Shanjia people would never kill a messenger who came to offer friendship, let alone a negotiator who had thrown himself into the net. Of course - if the carapaces have lost the glory of their ancestors, then I have nothing to say! ”
Zoro pretended to be indifferent on the surface, but in fact, he was very nervous inside, and the Ring Spirit Angmar Witch King was also deliberately preparing, and the target was to lock on the three patriarchs of the mountain armor people.
The patriarch of the Hantie Clan, Ibek, said gloomily, "Friendship? Hmph, despicable invader, the carapaces have no friendship with you to speak of! ”
"Since you know the glory of the Shanjia people, then you must know that the Shanjia people have never and will never surrender."
"Intruder, nonsense aside, the carapaces will not give in. Fight, and you will drown in your own blood! ”
Stonefist Patriarch Askar and Hammerhammer Patriarch Ovge responded.
It seems that this battle has to be fought.
In the face of the aggressiveness of the three patriarchs of the Sanjia people, Zoro could see that whatever he said was superfluous. However, at the last moment when he made up his mind about to start a war, Sauron's eyes swept over the three dwarven patriarchs one by one, and he was surprised to find a breakthrough.
"The Stone Fist and the Hammer are two stupid people, their brains are like a rusty blunt axe. The gods are above, when can even natural enemies such as humans and orcs be united, the mountain carapace... Even if you can defeat the enemy in front of you, you won't be able to compete with more coalition forces. ”
Through the use of mind magic, Zoro intercepted this message from the white-bearded Shanjia chief.
It was none other than the gloomy Hantie patriarch Ibek.
It is well known that the reason for the decline of the Shanjia people was caused by the endless civil war.
There were once only three of the 83 clans left, and they could not eliminate their infighting and greed for the authority of the supreme king. The Elder of the Cold Iron Clan, Ibek, is the only one left among them.
Using the mind reading technique of mind magic, Zoro conveyed a complete piece of information to the mind of the Elder of the Cold Iron Clan, Ibek.
"You're right! Did you see the minotaur in white armor, it was the shaman prince Basen of the totem tribe? An army of 30,000 minotaurs is on its way, and if you can withdraw from the battlefield or help me, I will swear in the name of the gods that I will help you ascend to the throne of the Supreme Mountain King. And help you gather the mountain armor people scattered elsewhere in the continent. You'll be the sole owner of the Iron City, and in return, you'll only have to ask the Pangols to help me forge weapons and equipment, and I'll even pay for it. ”
I didn't see Sauron speak, but I could understand what he meant. The Elder of the Cold Iron Clan, Ibek, was completely shocked. So much so that it didn't even think about it, and just blurted out, "Why should I believe you?" ”
The strange behavior of the Elder Ibek of the Cold Iron Clan immediately attracted the side glances of the Hammer Patriarch Ovge and the Stone Fist Patriarch Askar.
When the Elder of the Cold Iron Clan, Ibek, realized this, he immediately closed his mouth.
"You don't have a choice. Because...... No matter how brave the mountain armor is, they can't defeat the gods! ”
Zoro pretended to be mysterious, and he just scared the cold iron patriarch Ibek into a daze. After all, being seen through one's own thoughts is already a bizarre and unacceptable thing.
Zoro and the other party's spiritual communication was just something that happened in an instant. So except for the momentary gaffe of the cold iron patriarch Ibek, the other two dwarf patriarchs didn't realize anything.
The various clans of the Shanjia people have different bloodlines, and different bloodlines create a variety of different personalities. For example, the dwarves of the Cold Iron Clan have a gloomy personality, the dwarves of the Stone Fist Clan have a straightforward personality, and the dwarves of the Hammer Clan are always too violent. Every Shanjia can fight for the clan and glory, but they can't unite for the entire Panshan clan. The personality flaws of the various clans led to endless infighting, which was the main factor in the decline of the Shanjia people and their escape.
In ancient times, the Shanjia people ruled the Panshan tribe and the goblins, if all the Shanjia clans were united, it would undoubtedly be the number one force in the entire continent, but it was a pity that they could not reconcile their internal contradictions, so they could never dominate, and gradually became more and more declining.
The three major Shanjia clans live in the same city, and in fact, they all have their own ruling areas on weekdays. The patriarchs of the three mountain armors sit on an equal footing, living in harmony on the surface, but behind the scenes, no one obeys anyone, and there is no supreme lord decision-maker.
Zoro can be said to have deliberately 'sowed discord', which caused a big stir in the heart of the Cold Iron Patriarch Ibek.
"As you can see, the canyon above the underworld already belongs to me, the domain of Sauron, Lord of the Black Peaks! As long as the Shanjia and the Panshan are loyal to me, I will grant you dignity and freedom, and help you regain the glory and glory of the Panshan people! ”
"Otherwise, the Dragon Court Legion will follow the will of the gods, step on your army, sack your city, and turn all the mountain armors and pangols into lowly slaves!"
As a conqueror, Sauron's sonorous words were not righteous words, but he had already given the carapaces two options, either surrender or be conquered, with no third way to choose.
"Death to the despicable invaders, the carapaces will not give in!"
"Go back with your peace conditions and let us fight it out on the battlefield!"
The Patriarch of the Stone Fist and the Hammer Patriarch immediately expressed their attitude of not giving in, only the Patriarch of Cold Iron had a gloomy face, standing there without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
"These two reckless fools don't deserve to be the kings of the mountain armor people at all."
Intercepting this message from the Cold Iron Patriarch, Zoro knew that his goal had been achieved. Even if the white-bearded Shanjia patriarch refuses the temptation, it will waver from side to side on the battlefield, or suggest that its Shanjia subordinates will preserve their strength.
There is an old saying in the ancient underground world, three mountain armor people have one heart, and they are indestructible and sweep a thousand pounds. The three mountain armor people have different intentions, and the broken copper and iron are vulnerable.
Surrounded by the Dragon Banner Guard, Sauron returned to his own front. At this time, Sauron nodded to Barson the Minotaur and the Deputy Patriarch of the Octopus, and then turned his gaze to his commanders and centurions.
"Go to war—" The two decisive words in Zoro's mouth immediately made this peaceful battlefield boil!
"The dragon flag does not fall, and the dragon court is undefeated; The dragon flag does not fall, and the fight to the death does not retreat; Wherever the dragon flag goes, it is invincible! Born for the Dragon Banner! Born for the Dragon Court! For the legion! For victory! -- Go to war! ”
In an instant, the earth-shattering shouts of the soldiers seemed to make the entire hot air cavalry burn.
The crossbowmen were in front, the pikes were at the back, and five hundred legionary infantry and five hundred minotaur warriors guarded the flanks of the battle array.
The pikemen are a very cooperative class, and the cooperation between them and their teammates in battle is the key to survival and success, and individual heroism is a big taboo.
Therefore, in the spear phalanx, every soldier must do the order and prohibit.
Whoa, whoa!
The sharp tip of the spear shines with rows of cold metal wires. There was no superfluous expression on the soldier's face, only fortitude remained. At this time, the elite mountain armor army had already moved, and the crossbowmen pressed their feet, took out crossbow arrows from their sides, and raised their crossbows to aim.
"Shoot the arrows—"
I don't know if it was the commander Sius or Leon, but I only heard a heaven-shattering shout. Thousands of arrows are like dense raindrops towards the enemy ****!
"Great and ancient Panshan people, now, the time has come for us to fight back against the invaders!"
The Hammer Dwarven Patriarch immediately went berserk, constantly ramming each other against the round shields and battle axes that would be searched.
The Pangol Archer's mechanical chocobo galloped like a fast horse, roaring like thunder, and the arrows pierced the space like thunder.
When the first valiant soldier fell to the battlefield, blood flowed bright red, and the remaining glimmer of light reflected the dark sky of the entire underground world like blood.
The hot air washed over the cheeks of every soldier, and the general gave the order, and the soldier could only step into the smoke of war. Only victory! Can't throw in the towel! These are the words that are silently recited in the heart of every warrior.
No matter how many arrows passed through the gaps of the crossbowmen and fell into the phalanx of spears, every soldier in the phalanx of spears was lined up neatly. No matter how many people fell in front of him, every soldier had a firm gaze! (To be continued.) )
