Chapter 35 Victory in the First Battle
The change of the city lord of Xia City made the skeleton general vigilant, he knew that this was a special inheritance unique to the werewolf clan to improve his strength in a short period of time, although after a period of time, such a state would naturally disappear, and the spellcaster would also be weakened for a while, but at present, this was the only way for the city lord to make up for the disadvantage that he had been injured.
And like a switch, after the city lord used the inheritance, the werewolf army in the battle followed suit, and after a while, the entire defense line was full of such huge werewolf warriors, and for a while they suppressed the attack of the skeleton legion.
"Why are you so troubled, if you continue to consume like this, it will only increase your losses!" After fighting back and forth with the city lord again, the skeleton general felt more and more that something was wrong.
These garrisons seem to have been cornered, but no matter how their subordinates pour into the enchantment to participate in the battle, they can't completely break through the outer city, and every time they are about to succeed, there are always new werewolf warriors to supplement the most critical battle circle, so that their subordinates can return in vain.
It's like putting off something, and you don't have to hang your appetite with all your might, which is especially uncomfortable.
Listening to the words of the skeleton general, the city lord cracked his mouth and laughed a few times without saying much, and the next moment he waved a long knife to meet him.
These are naturally also Song Chengyin's arrangements. On the surface, the werewolf warriors are in a suppressed state, but no matter how crumbling they are, the defense line will always be firmly held by the warriors who suddenly appear and hide in advance. After giving the Skeleton Legion hope, they were disappointed, so as to constantly stimulate their fighting spirit, and use this method to completely drag them into the attack and defense of the city.
Of course, this is also related to the follow-up operation. Only when the skeleton army felt that the bone of Xiacheng was really difficult to swallow, could they decisively give up the siege of Xiacheng and return to the army to rescue after learning that their camp was under the enemy.
On the other side, Song Chengyin stood on the high ground anxiously looking at the blood-stained sky in the distance, obviously the garrison in the opponent's base camp exceeded his budget. But think about it, after all, this is a team of more than 100,000 people, and to ensure that such a team can have enough backup baggage, there must be a lot of supernumerary personnel in the base camp.
"I don't know what happened to my brother...... I haven't contacted them for almost a month. Looking at the chaotic sky of the Demon Realm, Song Chengyin sighed, she needed to divert her attention to ensure her calmness, otherwise it would be difficult to make the most correct judgment on the battle situation.
In Xia City, the soul fire in the skeleton general's eyes continued to flicker, much dimmer than just now. In the battle, he injured the city lord several times, but the price was that he was smashed to pieces by the opponent's long knife. And because the strength of the werewolf clan is too great, every time his body is almost broken, almost broken into slag. In such a "severely disabled" situation, Rao, the skeleton general who was the commander of the first army, also felt a little unbearable after several successive resurrections.
The protracted battle for a day and a night actually did not exceed his original plan, after all, Xiacheng is also a large city with hundreds of thousands of combatants alone, and it will definitely take some time to completely conquer Xiacheng;
"What are your intentions, why do you still close the city when you have such powerful subordinates?" Blocking the city lord's cold blade, the skeleton general asked loudly, "Don't think about your reinforcements anymore, I have already sent spies, and there are no reinforcements from you outside this Xia City." We demons are a race, why do we have such a dispute, why can't we support my king!"
The city lord gasped, clutched the long knife that was already a little deformed, and scolded directly: "You bastard can fight if you want to, it's not annoying to quarrel and quarrel!"
As soon as the words fell, the skeleton general was about to rush forward again, but suddenly a bat blocked his way. Angrily grabbed the bat and put it to his ear, and after a few breaths, the anger of the sky instantly burst out from his body, and the two soul fires in his eye sockets suddenly rose, and the hand holding the long knife trembled and said word by word: "I really underestimated you werewolf clan in the Northern Regions...... Xiacheng City Lord, you and I will fight again in the future!"
With that, he unfurled his pair of poisonous wings again and flew into the sky, shouting loudly with anger and unwillingness: "Collect the troops!"
As the skeleton army retreated, the city's earth-shattering cheers rang out from the city walls, and even the city lord secretly breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground. After giving the order for the soldiers who could still fight to pretend to pursue for a short distance, the city lord's swollen body slowly shrank back to its previous appearance, and if it was a few minutes too late, he might not have been able to hold on.
Feeling the turbulent magic in the air, the city lord shouted loudly while wiping his knife: "Hurry up and recover your strength, treat the wounded, and support Director Song and them according to the predetermined plan!" After that, he looked up at the direction where those skeletons had gone, frowned slightly, sighed, and whispered: "These are all warriors of my demon clan." ”
He knew that it was impossible for this vanguard to appear on this battlefield again under any circumstances, and Song Chengyin, who had the enchantment against the undead attack, was quietly waiting for them with an ambush, even if there was no follow-up pursuit by himself, they would not be able to escape.
But at this point, the task of himself, the city lord, is over. Of course, if there was no enchantment of Song Chengyin, it would be impossible for him to hold Xia City no matter what, after all, just one enchantment would block seventy or eighty percent of the skeleton warriors from the outside, which greatly reduced the pressure on the defenders.
In the next few days, under the leadership of Song Chengyin, the team in charge of the ambush completely wiped out the vanguard of the Three Domains Alliance, and then took the stronghold camp they set up on the front line in one fell swoop.
When the news came, the entire Northern Regions was boiling. After all, in the previous period of time, the only response that the Northern Regions could make was to constantly shrink the front and abandon the territory to avoid fighting, and this counterattack completely dispelled the Northern Regions Demon Clan's worries about the rumors of the strength of the Three Regions Alliance, and at the same time made them deeply remember the name of a general from the human race, who they once regarded as a weak race, Song Chengyin. At this point, even the suspicion and contempt for the Terrans in the Northern Royalty were swept away, at least on the surface.
Although two days have passed since the battle, Xiacheng is still full of people at this time, and even the street banquet to celebrate the victory of this battle is even more sumptuous than the previous two days. The soldiers of the two auxiliary cities, whether they knew each other or not, hugged each other and wantonly expressed their excitement, and many people competed in martial arts, attracting bursts of applause.
In the command room at this time, Song Chengyin ignored the shouts that shook the table slightly, and carefully read the two battle reports with his eyebrows locked.
"Director Song, why don't you go out and be happy together, I've been here all day, and my brothers want to see you." The moment the door was pushed open, the sound from the street startled Song Chengyin like a sound, and when he looked up, he found that it was Trus who walked in with a beast leg full of oil, "Why do you look at these useless things after the battle is over." ”
Signaling Truss to close the door, Song Chengyin reluctantly put down the battle report, and rubbed his temples while closing his eyes and said: "This is called a war report, but it's not a useless thing." There are many deeper things that can be learned through these records. ”
