Chapter 1173: Flesh and Blood Battlefield
The Red King and the Dragon Flame refracted a faint halo in the gray sunlight, and the sword and sword continued to fly in Allen's hands, slashing at the alien soldiers who rushed through the defense line of the Steelblade Samurai. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info [Full Text Reading] Lucy's ninety or so Steelblade warriors form a real steel defense line, and these warriors have no fear and no doubts. Their tall bodies are wrapped in long cloaks, revealing only their hands and the massive weapons they hold. These tall figures reassured the people on the battlefield, and their mechanical and efficient attacks would always make the impact of the alien race collapse and become invisible.
Only the sporadic fish that escaped the net escaped the threat of those giant soldiers, but they were greeted by the second line of defense of several strong men, including Allen.
Allen's sword movements are simple, and like a miser, he will never waste excess physical energy on these miscellaneous fish. The Red King didn't even show its most basic heat-high properties, and with its sharpness, Eren used it to slit the throat of the Knife Demon or the Cato.
This position was the defensive area that Allen was responsible for, and the artillery position was arranged on a low slope, and more than thirty guns, including Allen's Vulcan cannon, continued to fire, firing shells into the right flank of the alien troops. The other party also responded with a salute, but most of the shells were intercepted and detonated by strong men like Allen. In this position, in addition to Allen, there are also strong men such as Hubble, Lola, Adele, Bloy and White. Lucy commanded the Steelblade Warriors and left the Blade Runner to assassinate them on their own.
There are not many soldiers in their position, but there are definitely a lot of strong ones. Even considering that there were not enough strong men on the Orlando side, Allen also arranged Regess, Roy, Belmode, Willik and others on their side to assist in the defensive position. Otherwise, there are simply so many strong people on Allen's side that even the Bucks don't have such a luxurious lineup.
In such a situation, it is almost impossible to break through the defensive line of the position with soldiers alone. So under the low slope, the enemy's formation rushed up with a distinctive aura, led by a strong man of Gatu, and the alien race suddenly put five strong men of about level 234, intending to capture this artillery position in one go.
"Hubble!" Alan yelled.
Hubble's eyes lit up in the helmet, and the source power surged, and flames of light erupted from under every crevice in the armor. Hubble's breath became as heavy as a mountain, and in the eyes of the people, his figure seemed to be much taller, like a majestic mountain, capable of holding back any flood. He strode forward, with great plans to stop the enemy with the strength of one person.
In addition to Allen, even Lola, who was strong when she followed Allen for a long time, was surprised by Hubble's movements. Only Allen knows that Hubble definitely has such strength. At this moment, the Cato people activated another mode of the Fallen Body.
It was an immortal temple dedicated to defense, a defensive stance that was different from the rampaging killing.
At this time, the five alien powerhouses all broke through the defense line of the Steelblade Warrior and killed towards the low slope. Hubble strode up, thrust his greatsword into the ground, and slammed his fists into the ground. A visibly visible ripple of shock spread out in the shape of a fan with him as its origin, like a tidal wave that swept over the five invading enemies. Regardless of the rank, when they were swept by this shock ripple, everyone of these alien powerhouses was surprised. Their bodies, their senses, and even their bodies
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) The internal source power has been affected, and even fell into chaos. At this time, let alone continue to charge, you can't even do something as simple as moving your fingers.
Kinetic Concussion, a special ability in the Immortal Sanctuary stance. The concussive force field it generates can disrupt the target's perception and source movement, making it difficult to move. As soon as he saw Hubble restraining the five alien powerhouses, Alan let out a soft roar, and the scarlet flame of the Red King's blade flowed, and the long knife finally erupted into flames. Alan leaned forward, and the man had disappeared in place, only a red light descended the slope, staggering with the two strong men.
By the time his toes landed, Alan had already appeared at the bottom of the low slope, and the red line stretched and expanded, and the flames erupted into a cloud of fire. The two powerhouses who were grazed by the fire cloud were both annihilated by the high heat and flames, and the brilliance in their eyes quickly dimmed, scattering into several corpses and falling to the ground. Bloy and White also pounced, the former's Forbidden Hammer flashing with yellow light, and a hammer was imprinted on the strong man of the Nagato people first. The hammer spewed out yellow flames, and the Cato's chest collapsed, and the whole person flew upside down, and he was only seriously injured if he did not die. Bai was even more simple and rude, he flashed in front of a sword demon powerhouse, reached out, and pulled out the other party's heart. When he was about to kill another alien next to him, suddenly a sharp whistle sounded on the slope, and the man's head exploded. Bai turned around and saw a girl on the slope raising a sniper rifle, her short brown hair flying wantonly in the sun.
The five strong men who stormed the position were killed in the blink of an eye, but this did not deter the aliens, but in a short period of time, they could not put more strong men into an artillery position. So the situation returned to the original situation, and the aliens still used the numerical superiority of soldiers to storm the defensive line of the position, and the killing seemed to never stop.
By the time dusk crept in, Eren was almost numb. He had forgotten how many people he had killed, and he only knew how to mechanically swing the Red King and Dragon Flame to slay the aliens in his sight. If it weren't for his determination, he would have collapsed a long time ago. And now, this shelling position actually exists in name only. After the battle was fought on this day, the shells were almost exhausted, and after noon, the artillery could no longer continue the saturation bombardment, and could only fire in turns. Even so, the aliens were reluctant to give up, even though their corpses had been piled up on a hillside below.
Finally, the trumpet of retreat sounded in the rear of the alien army. At the sound of the desolate horn, the alien soldiers who were still constantly attacking the defense line began to retreat, and at this time, even the tireless Steelblade warriors, their weapons had already been curled, and at the end of the battle, they were almost slashing the aliens with brute force.
But no matter what, the alien finally chose to retreat, even if temporarily, but in the face of this hard-won victory, no one could cheer. Most of the mentally broken soldiers passed out on the battlefield directly after confirming the alien retreat. It was up to other comrades to carry them back, and Salons himself carried four or five officers back to the camp, not to mention others.
In this extremely tragic war, the human side suffered more than 3,000 casualties, and several small mountains of corpses alone were piled up. Due to the large number of the deceased, it was impossible to transport them back for burial, so they had to take off their nameplates and be cremated on the spot to avoid the plague. As for the alien side, there are more than 10,000 corpses left behind, and as far as the eye can see, the corpses of the alien race can be seen on every inch of the ground. whereas
The blood shed by the armies on both sides dyed the fields of this area a dark red, as well as other colors, and the smell of blood was so strong that people had to hold their breath so that they would not vomit.
The work of cleaning up the battlefield after the war is no easier than fighting. The logisticians needed to take turns to rest and rest, and it was only before the early hours of the morning that the last group of alien soldiers were cremated. Smoke rose from the battlefield, and the aftertaste of the aftermath of the war wafted everywhere. By the time Salons returned to the castle, it was midnight. After eating dinner and resting for a while, Alan was in a lot of spirits, and when he saw Salonn returning, he took the initiative to inquire about the situation in the barracks.
Siron took off his cloak and helmet, and the moment he sat down, he looked old. The general shook his head tiredly and said, "Although the number of our soldiers killed in battle is within the expected number, the number of wounded is far greater than I imagined. Lord Allen, we have nearly seventy percent of the wounded, of which thirty percent are seriously wounded, and it is still unknown whether they will survive until tomorrow, let alone fighting. ”
"To put it simply, if the aliens continue to attack tomorrow, we will only have about half as many people as we do today. But this is not the most serious problem, the more serious problem is that our ammunition reserves are depleted too quickly, and tomorrow our artillery positions may face an embarrassing scene of no ammunition to fight. ”
Alan frowned: "Aren't there any reinforcements?" The emperor's ** regiment should have more than such a small number of troops, even if the north and south lines are launched at the same time, isn't the emperor ** known as a million-strong division? ”
"If it's a normal situation, even if it's just us Bucks, we have enough troops to deal with the battlefield here. But now the situation is turbulent, my lord, as far as I know, the Beararmor army stationed in Mother Hor blatantly disobeyed the command of Marshal Rodek, and the general Arkham declared that he would take it upon himself to wait until the empire had a new king before he led the beararmor army to pay allegiance to him. ”
At this time, Onte had food brought in, but Salone clearly had no appetite. After eating two slices of bread and drinking a glass of ale to refresh himself, he continued, "As for the dragon army, I think you know it too. General Woodrick led part of the Dragon Army south, which was supposed to be the most promising support on our side. But now the war in the south is not limited to us, and I think the general is delayed elsewhere. At least not in the short term, it will not be possible. ”
"As for the Black Wolf Army and the Lion King Army, there are also such and such problems, just to maintain the operation of the military department, Marshal Rodek is already very busy. He also has to take into account the input of all the soldiers on the battlefield, so it is difficult for us to draw more reinforcements on this front alone. Ssalon sighed, "We'll have to be on our own, my lord." ”
Eren was silent, he understood what that meant.
Today has passed, tomorrow, what will happen?
Nothing was said all night.
At the end of dawn, the horn sounded outside the castle. Eren opened his eyes, thinking that the alien race was going to attack again, but if he listened carefully, it was not a warning signal. Confused, he got out of bed, pushed open the window, and the wind blew in with a bit of coldness, which lifted his spirits. Alan looked out of the castle, and there were people pouring out of the avenue in the woods, and he was stunned by this sight, could it be that reinforcements had arrived?
