Chapter 135: First Victory
It had been more than ten minutes since the battle began, and although the siege equipment of the demon army had been destroyed in the previous artillery bombardment, they still climbed the wall that had been raised to a height of twenty meters by building a human wall.
In order to avoid accidental injury, Zhao Hongwei had to order a ceasefire of the laser cannon, and only the machine gunners were still venting their firepower, shooting the demon soldiers under the city wall to help relieve the pressure on the city wall defenders.
At the beginning, those demon soldiers were still in a state of residual blood, and the defenders on the city wall were all five-star soldiers, their strength was already stronger than that of demon soldiers, and they also occupied a favorable location, so it was not too easy to kill, and more than 10,000 demon soldiers were eliminated in just a few minutes.
But as time passed, the demon soldiers' self-healing ability made their blood volume gradually rise, and the demon soldiers who could be hacked to death with two knives now need three or four knives, and there is a tendency to continue to grow, which makes the pressure on the defenders of the city wall suddenly increase.
"Play the battle song."
Wang Jianjun sat in the front-line command and took charge of the battle situation. He knew that the longer the time dragged on, the worse it would be for them, so he had to play this hole card early.
Chen Gong opened his mouth on the side, but in the end he didn't say anything, he appeared here as a military advisor and staff officer. But in this kind of frontal hard steel battle, the effect of his strategy and intelligence is minimized, and everything still depends on strength.
With Wang Jianjun's order, the eight hundred musicians began to play at the same time, and the passionate war song suddenly resounded everywhere on the battlefield, drifting into the ears of everyone on both sides of the enemy, bringing two completely different effects.
To the ears of friendly troops, the war song is so uplifting that it makes people forget their fears and go to battle wholeheartedly. And with the blessing of the music, all the allies felt that their strength had increased greatly, and their skills were much more numerous.
But the demon soldiers sounded as if thousands of troops were roaring in their ears, making them lose their spirits for a while, and even their strength, speed, defense, etc. were greatly reduced.
With each increase and decrease, the advantage of the defenders of the city wall became more and more obvious, and they repelled two attacks of the demon army in succession.
However, that demon general also has his own hole cards, a full 10,000 demon elites. Compared to the demon soldiers, the demon elite has a higher defense and stronger self-healing ability, so when they appear on the battlefield, they are basically full of blood.
After several rounds of previous attacks, the demon generals quickly found the weak point of the wall's defense. He used 10,000 demon elites as sharp knives, supplemented by 40,000 demon soldiers, a total of 50,000 troops, and attacked the place where he thought his defense was weak.
Let's ask, with the ability of Wang Jianjun and Chen Gong, how could it be possible to leave such an obvious weakness, all this is to show the enemy's weakness and invite you into the urn.
Before leaving, Zhou Xiaoning gave Wang Jianjun a lot of good things for him to use to stabilize the defense line. And the place where these 50,000 demons attacked was the area shrouded in the psychedelic magic array.
The core of the psychedelic circle was the four psychedelic beads that Zhou Xiaoning got from the black unicorn at the beginning. I think that Zhou Xiaoning almost suffered the loss of the psychedelic bead at the beginning, you must know that it was still under the condition that no one controlled it, and now it is Chen Gong, a senior strategist, who is urging the psychedelic bead, and the illusion he carefully weaves will definitely make the 50,000 demons come back.
"Hehe, sure enough, it's here."
Chen Gong, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating all the time, opened his eyes suddenly, and he could sense that the psychedelic magic circle had been triggered.
Chen Gong hurriedly got up, walked quickly to a one-person-high bronze mirror, and after injecting a trace of spiritual power, the scene in the psychedelic magic circle was reflected on the mirror.
"Even the demon elite has been dispatched, and it seems that the enemy can't hold his breath anymore."
Chen Gong's actions attracted Wang Jianjun's attention, and the situation on the frontal battlefield was very good, so he had the spare time to come to the bronze mirror and appreciate Chen Gong's operation.
"Wouldn't this be a good thing, if these demon elites are completely left in the psychedelic magic circle, the pressure on the soldiers can be reduced a lot."
Chen Gong smiled confidently, he was already familiar with the operation of the psychedelic array, even if a seventh-order powerhouse entered the formation, he would trap me for ten days and half a month, not to mention these demons.
"First of all, the fog comes."
As soon as Chen Gong's words fell, a heavy mist filled the psychedelic array, even if it was a five-star class like the Demon Elite, the visual distance was only three or four meters, and those demon soldiers were even more unbearable, they couldn't see anything if they were more than one meter, no different from being blind.
This thick fog is an illusion created by the psychedelic circle, and people outside the circle can't see it. So when the demon general saw the 50,000 demons he sent out spinning in place like ordinary dizzy flies, he realized that something was wrong. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't summon those 50,000 demons back, and even more than a hundred demon soldiers who went to give orders came in before and after.
For a while, the heart of the demon general sank to the bottom, in the demon army, the demon soldiers are cannon fodder, and it doesn't matter how many people die, but the demon elite is different, that is the main force of the demon army. If you let the boss know that he lost 10,000 demon elites in vain, it would be a serious crime, and his little life would definitely not be saved.
In the end, the demon general was ruthless in his heart, and immediately ordered that the whole army should be pressed, and he would take this line of defense at all costs, at least in this way, he would have an explanation after he went back.
"Hmph, I can't hold my breath so soon, and the generals of the demon army are just like that."
Chen Gong snorted disdainfully, in his opinion, the demon general had made a decision that seemed wise, but was actually extremely stupid. Without those 10,000 demon elites, no matter how many demon soldiers attack, they will all deliver food.
In fact, this can be regarded as an upward and downward effect, the head of the demon army, that is, Yuan Lu Zhi, is a person who is the supreme in strength, and he firmly believes that in the face of absolute strength, all strategies are as fragile as tissue paper. In fact, he does have this capital, the suppression of strength in the current world has just been lifted, and the existence of sixth-order strength is not common, as it is likely to be the first seventh-order fantasy creature to descend into this world, there are really few existences that can match him.
Under the influence of Yuan Lu Zhi, the demon army formed a combat style that crushed the opponent with absolute strength. The opponents they had encountered before were all limited in strength, and the demon army was naturally invincible. But this time they ran into Zhou Xiaoning, which was a difficult bone to gnaw, and forcibly lowered their mouths, so be careful of breaking their teeth.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Chen Gong's mouth, he wanted to let the demon army taste the taste of self-inflicted evil.
I saw Chen Gong take out a talisman, inject a trace of spiritual power to activate it, and then put it into the bronze mirror. I saw that the scene in the psychedelic circle changed, and the 50,000 demons suddenly found themselves through the fog and attacked the enemy's defense line. However, the enemy still wanted to resist stubbornly, and gathered more than 100,000 troops to stop them.
The demon army is a group of well-developed limbs and simple-minded guys, they don't think about how they broke through the defense line, why the enemy army still has hundreds of thousands of reserve troops but does not enter the battle and other questions, their brain circuit is very simple, since it is the enemy, then one word, do!
So, 10,000 demon elites took the lead, followed by 40,000 demon soldiers, and killed the "enemy" in this murderous manner.
And in reality, how can there be any enemy army, the long city wall defense line is still standing there, and the "enemy army" in the eyes of the 50,000 demon army is nothing else, it is the demon army led by the demon general.
It can be seen from here that the psychedelic circle is powerful, as long as you enter the illusion, even if you break away from the circle, you will not be able to break free from the environment for a while, and all words and deeds will be controlled by the host of the circle.
The demon general was depressed at this time and wanted to vomit blood, his elite, after going around the city wall, directly rebelled, how can this battle be fought? Run.
The demon general ordered the withdrawal of the army, and he ran in front with more than 100,000 demon soldiers, and there were 50,000 demon troops controlled by illusion chasing behind, and the scene was simply indescribably funny.
In this way, the first offensive and defensive battle is considered to be the victory of the Two Realms City, but it also exposes a lot of hole cards, and when the demon army attacks again the next time, it will definitely be guarded again, and the war will be even more tragic at that time.
Although it was a victory in the first battle, Wang Jianjun and Chen Gong did not mean to relax, they all knew that this attack was just a test of the enemy, and the deployment of troops on this side of the enemy army should have almost been figured out, and then I am afraid that a targeted attack will be launched.
Don't look at the nearly 80,000 demon soldiers eliminated this time, but for the speed of the demon army's violent soldiers, it only takes one day to recover. On their side, although no one was killed in the battle, more than 1,000 of them were wounded, and more than 200 of them were seriously wounded and had to be sent to the rear camp for treatment.
It can be said that the troops that can be drawn by the Two Realms City are all here now, and one less person will have one less combat power, and the Two Realms City will not be able to afford it.
"Looks like I'm a little late, and I've missed a big fight."
Zhou Xiaoning pushed the door and walked into the front-line headquarters, in fact, he had been here for a while, but it took a little time to settle those masters recruited from various worlds.
"City Lord!"
"Lord!"
When Wang Jianjun and Chen Gong heard this, their faces showed surprise at the same time, and their previous sorrows were suddenly swept away.
"Okay, I'll talk about it later, but tell me how the battle is going first."
Zhou Xiaoning walked straight to the chair placed on the top and sat down.
"Lord Qiqi, the vanguard of the demon army has been repelled by us, and now 10,000 demon elites and 40,000 demon soldiers are under the influence of the psychedelic magic circle, chasing and killing the remaining demon army. However, the influence of the psychedelic circle can last for a maximum of half an hour, and when they regain their strength, I am afraid that the next round of attacks will be launched. ”
"Since that's the case, I've decided, gather the Thunderblade Spirit Riders immediately, and I'm going to eat this demon army."
A hint of madness flashed in Zhou Xiaoning's eyes, with three thousand thunder blade spirit horses, chasing and killing more than 200,000 demon troops, anyone with common sense would think this was a joke, but since the day the catastrophe came, is there still common sense in this world?
