Chapter 225: Temporary Retirement

Absorbing such a large number of refugees at once is a huge burden for Alzari City, not to mention the large number of alien monsters mixed in with it.

Fortunately, Hua Pei had already worked out a way to deal with it, and a large number of well-prepared magicians and warriors stood in place, and once they found out that there were alien monsters, they would immediately kill them.

With preparedness and unpreparedness, most of the alien monsters that had just teleported into the city and had not yet reacted were killed, and the remaining monsters could no longer pose a threat, so they could only kill the nearby refugees indiscriminately and then be punished.

The rest of the people who want to hide among the refugees will naturally have "hounds" waiting for them.

In short, with the careful arrangement of the human commander, this large-scale rescue operation can be said to be quite successful, but even so, the refugees are still killed and injured.

However, in Hua Pei's eyes, this is not a big problem, and the most terrible problem is what needs to be dealt with after taking in these refugees.

After repeated screenings to make sure that there were no alien monsters among the refugees, the civil officials of Alzari City immediately read the city's wartime laws to the refugees.

As soon as the panic of the refugees was calmed, someone jumped out and pointed at the noses of the soldiers and cursed: "You bastards, you obviously saw us and opened fire, it is simply inhumane! My relatives did not die at the hands of those evil creatures, but were killed by your magic cannons!"

This kind of questioning can't be stopped at all, after all, it is a fact, although the defenders have tried to shoot magic cannons at the places where there are more alien monsters, but the alien monsters are indeed too cunning, resulting in the killing of many innocent refugees during the attack.

Hearing this, the martial law enforcer who was mixed with the refugees had a fierce glint in his eyes, and immediately rushed forward, raised his knife in his hand, and beheaded several refugees who were unabashed.

"Article 21 of the Military Law, Accuse, Death for Troubled Sergeants!" The brutal methods of the executive officer made the refugees suddenly silent, and only then did they coldly announce the reasons for the execution.

Blaming the fortified sergeants is likely to cause divisions within the fortified city, and even more so, internal strife, so once this happens, it must be extinguished with lightning speed.

Most of these refugees were captured by alien monsters from military strongholds, and the actions of the military law enforcers immediately reminded them of life in military strongholds, and they understood that the other party was not joking, so they could only honestly coax each other, no longer talking, and no longer have unnecessary suspicious behavior.

After maintaining order for the refugees, the other sergeants or city administrators will arrange for the refugees to live and live in the next step.

This step was expected by Huapei, and he also set out to successfully solve the problem, but the next problem was not easy to solve by wisdom.

That's food.

Tens of thousands of refugees, and suddenly tens of thousands of mouths have increased in the city of Arzari, and the pressure on food can be imagined.

Hua Pei has never encountered such a funny situation, in the past military operations, plundering the enemy's food is equivalent to increasing his own rations, but this time plundering the enemy's rations, but instead increasing his own food burden, this seems to be a situation that harms others and is not beneficial to himself, it is estimated that no human warmaster will think of it.

But these refugees, both public and private, Hua Pei must be saved, and the problems he faces after saving can only be a headache for himself.

Now the situation is getting closer and closer to Hua Pei's expectation that the two sides will hold each other without a way out, after all, the rations on both sides are quite tight.

However, now the situation is more favorable to their side, and the pressure on the enemy is greater in time, so it seems that the attack of the alien monster will be more ferocious.

Sure enough, after losing a large amount of rations, the alien monsters were almost red-eyed, they were already approaching the walls of Alzari City at this time, they naturally did not want this operation to end up in the loss of their wives and soldiers, and the Xeni commander immediately mobilized their magicians, preparing to create a dirt slope as before, which was used to attack the city wall.

Seeing this scene and feeling the powerful magic fluctuations of those alien monster mages, Hua Pei and the city commanders couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Hundreds of archmage-level magicians can only be used by inflationary alien monsters to make such a big move.

Hua Pei smiled bitterly and looked at his own forces, most of the magicians here are intermediate, and there are more than ten high-level, and the archmage can count them on one hand.

However, humans have been using magic for a long time, and they have the skills to use it.

Although the alien monsters were also changed by humans before, but now the army of alien monsters is the Xeni people, which are barbarians compared to the Lion Continent civilization, and their use of magic is very simple and direct.

"Get the magic cannon ready!" Hua Pei immediately ordered, "Crossbowmen cooperate!"

The Demon Breaking Arrow and the Enchanted Arrow were fired in unison under the commander's order, causing great obstacles to the enemy's siege and also severely damaging the enemy, but the alien monster masters are like clouds, not only do they have a large number of masters to protect those spell-casting mages, but even if the archmages are seriously injured and unable to fight, they still have a large number of reserve archmages to fill in, not to mention that the alien monsters are strong and have extremely strong vitality?

If it was those small strongholds, if the firepower was not so fully prepared, maybe the alien monster would not be able to crack it at all, but now the alien monster is facing Arzari City, the richest city in the Aize Country, not to mention anything else, the firepower is full!

Moreover, the design of Arzari City is exquisite, each fort is independent and prominent, forming a close-range defense without dead angles that can be cross-fired, and you only need to control the amount of magic cannon magic power without hurting the foundation of the city wall.

The power of the magic cannon was extraordinary, and the more than ten shells in a row not only caused heavy losses to the mage troops of the alien monsters, but even the dirt slope they had built with great difficulty was easily destroyed.

"Damn!" the blood bees on the face of the Seni leader kept flying, and he became more and more hideous, he knew that in the current situation, it was impossible to take this fortress at once. If the army's casualty losses continue, it will affect the morale of the entire army.

As a last resort, the Xenes chose to retreat.

Looking at the alien monster slowly retreating, Hua Pei finally breathed a sigh of relief for a while and smiled reluctantly at the others.

Merio, the co-ruler of the Eize Kingdom, couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, he shouted, "Okay!", and immediately hugged a minister beside him.

Merio's excitement was contagious to the others, and everyone couldn't help but cheer, as if they had already fought a big victory.

Even Hua Pei was infected, and he kept pacing back and forth, trying his best to calm his mood - the Supreme Commander understood that his main purpose in this defense was to delay the enemy's pace and give the light forces in the rear enough time to prepare, but there was no clear answer to how long the rear needed to prepare, and he was not optimistic that he would have a high probability of finally breaking into pieces with the city, and finally achieve the goal of delaying the enemy's time.
