Chapter 132: The Siege of the City
A silver-armored officer split the three puppies in half with a sword aura, and then rushed to the pile of corpses not far in front of him with an arrow step, directly cutting off the head of a stinging snake that wanted to release cold arrows. Standing on top of the pile of corpses nearly five meters high, there was not a single insect around.
The silver-armored officer didn't care about what he was stepping on, he just lay on top of the corpse and gasped, and he didn't care if there were stinging snakes or puppies waiting for a sneak attack in the shadows, he closed his eyes, he just wanted to sleep like this, even if he was decapitated by the Zerg in his sleep, he just wanted to sleep for a while......
He was a group commander in the 3rd Division of the Blue Legion, and he fought from noon yesterday until early this morning, never stopping in between. When the fighting spirit is exhausted, he will cut it hard, and the fighting spirit will recover a little when the arm is tired, and then continue to slash with the arm when the fighting energy is exhausted, and the endless cycle will make him exhausted. However, the swarm seemed to be inexhaustible, and the interval between each impact was less than five minutes.
He knew that the Zerg would rush up again in five minutes at most, but he felt that his eyelids seemed to be extremely heavy, and he couldn't open them......
......The nightmarish chirping of insects sounded again, which made the officer's soul seem to return to its place, and the strong sense of survival still made him open his eyes again, but what he saw when he struggled to get up made him know that it might be time for him to return to the arms of Is.
In the western city where the people of Rockland could not see, the 3rd and 2nd Divisions sent by Gugil had been destroyed, and nearly 100,000 corpses were being dragged by the swarm to the south gate of Ulla City, and in a valley not far away, there was a huge group of Zerg bases, where they transported the corpses to transform into life energy, and then new Zerg were born in the eggs.
At the north gate of Ullah, Brich rode into Ullah on his mount, and frowned when he saw the corpses covered in the city. He had no doubts about whether he would be able to capture Jace's territory before he set out on the expedition, but now he wondered if it was worth the sacrifice. While he was thinking, a messenger hurriedly passed through the city gate and came to Bricht and said urgently: "Urgent, Your Excellency Marshal, urgent!" ”
Brishi frowned and said, "Read! ”
"On August 4, 9003 in the continental calendar, 200,000 camel cavalry of Hill Yas were annihilated by the Zerg in the town of Pulin. According to reports from the escaped scouts of Shiryas, they were defeated by a swarm of biters from south to north during a battle with the Kosmos Guardians, estimated to number more than a million. The communications soldier said.
"What? Why did the battle report on August 4 come back now? Brish dissatisfied.
"The battle report was sent by the Thias Palace to our palace with magical communication, and then from our palace to Joyama Castle, and then sent to the messenger for eight hundred ......miles," the messenger explained.
After listening to the explanation, Brich's face was cloudy for a while, and the Zerg had appeared in St. Ulan with millions of Zerg, what was the situation? Don't......
Thinking of this, Bricht's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly said: "Order, the whole army retreats!" "If according to his prediction, the strength of the Zerg last night was suddenly abnormal, it was very likely that there were more than one million Zerg reinforcements, if everything was as speculated, the Blue and Windy Legions must have fallen into the heavy encirclement of the Zerg, and if they also plunged into it, they would definitely be finished......
Although I didn't understand why the marshal asked everyone to retreat, the mission of the soldiers was to obey, and the troops who were still entering the city suddenly turned around and began to slowly withdraw from the city.
Kelligan, who was standing on the back of the flying dragon, shook his head and sighed when he saw the Rockland army slowly withdrawing from the city: "There are still 100,000 people who have not entered the city, it's a pity." But the hundreds of thousands of troops trapped in it are enough for me to digest for a while......"
As soon as Brich rode out of the city, he felt the ground shake, and he turned to see a huge pit recessed into the gate......
"Bastard!" Brish scolded angrily, this pit will not come sooner or later, but when he withdraws the troops, it must be the ghost of the Zerg, this pit nearly ten meters wide is probably only a professional above the fifth level can jump over.
A deep pit divided the entire Locklan army in two, and 100,000 troops could not enter outside the city, and 200,000 troops who had just entered the city could not get out......
"Order all the troops to withdraw from the walls!" Brich said.
A long bridge made of ladders had been erected over the city walls, which had been used to attack the city of Ulla, but had become an escape route.
However, it was clear that Kailigan had clearly expected all this, and there were four passages up to the city walls of Ulla, and at this time, a deep pit had collectively collapsed in front of the passages, and countless swarms of insects rushed out of the pit......
"Fight with them!" Seeing that their escape path was blocked, Silver Armor and the warriors drew their weapons and rushed forward......
"Lord Marshal, the passage up the city wall is occupied by the Zerg, and the officers on the city wall are asking if they want to support the city below...... "One of the heralds hurriedly ran to Brishi's side after hearing the shouts from the city wall.
"Let them help the soldiers in the city as much as they can, but don't get yourself trapped...... Brich said.
There are still 30,000 Locklan soldiers on the city wall, which is also a large combat force. However, it is clear that this little force is nothing to the Zerg at all, and after ten minutes of battle from the formation of the pit to the battle, the number of the swarm has increased to 40,000 instead of decreasing, and it is enough that more Zerg are emerging from the pit.
It turned out that Kailigan had already thought of a strategy to blockade the city of Ulla, and he first asked the soldiers to dig a deep hole under the city gate, and then directly dug through the ground to form a huge hole when needed. He also ordered the soldiers to dig four tunnels leading to the city wall, in order to prevent Lockland's soldiers from escaping the city. Kelligan already saw them all as life energy, so how could she let them go so easily?
As more and more swarms emerge from the tunnels, the battle becomes bloodier. The soldiers of Locklan knew that if they couldn't fight the worms back, they would be trapped in the city.
"Roar!" As the ground trembled, the mammoth that had terrified the Locklan army for so long reappeared, its almost invincible body making it impossible for the low-ranking soldiers to do anything about him, and all that awaited them was to be crushed. In yesterday's battle, all the mammoths were seriously injured, and they all entered the fungus blanket to repair as a last resort, and the mammoths with strong recovery ability were forced to this extent, which shows how hard those level 8 swordsmen worked. But now they're back......
