Episode 24 Battle in the Valley
The army of 500,000 Shura rushed wildly towards the valley, like a group of crazy beasts, a group of hungry demons who had just rushed from hell, constantly shouting, flying, running, and going crazy, while waving the weapons in their hands, sending out attack spells and pillars of light, and hitting the entrance of the valley densely.
At the forefront of the charge was the vanguard legion of the Shura army, a group of wolf tribes who had recently taken refuge in the Shura clan. This tribal race, which originally lived on the edge of the northern mountain range of Tiannanzhou, had fiercely resisted after the invasion of the Shura army, until a few months ago, when the royal army was defeated, and the top of the clan decided to take refuge in the Shura clan after careful consideration. In this attack, in order to win the approval of the new master, they volunteered to rush to the front, hoping to take the first credit.
Like all other armies that have taken refuge in the Shura Clan, almost all of the warriors of the Clan have undergone various degrees of demonic transformation, and each time they transform, their cultivation increases by one level, but at the same time, their hearts are more brutal and bloodthirsty. Because the high ground of cultivation determines the status and treatment of soldiers in the clan, all the soldiers of the Shura tribe are desperately fighting on the battlefield, striving for meritorious service in exchange for the opportunity to demonize, which makes the soldiers of the Shura tribe on the battlefield extremely combative, extremely offensive and aggressive, just like the Qin soldiers in Dongyanzhou at the beginning.
Like most of the races in Tiannanzhou, the soldiers of the wolf tribe are not tall, but they look a little short and obscene, all of them have dark complexions, ugly appearances, thick limbs, long and dense black hair on their bodies, their mouths are spit out, and their teeth are sharp, like werewolves. Because of this facial feature, legend has it that the wolf tribe is a hybrid descendant of Tiannan natives and wolves, and the genes of wild beasts flow in their blood.
The fact is almost the same, the 10,000 wolf soldiers who rushed to the front howled and slaughtered towards the entrance of the valley, a river valley mouth with a width of only more than 1,000 meters, and killed the valley along the bank of the river bank less than two or three hundred meters at both ends of the river. Immediately behind the Wolf Tribe's soldiers were three other tribes, namely the Blood Ant Clan, the Shu Tribe, and the Lumao Tribe, all of which had a strength of 20,000 or 30,000 people, and were also full of bloodthirsty fanaticism and crazy killing intent.
The entrance to the valley is not wide, and there are tall and handsome mountains on both sides, which are extremely suitable for defensive operations, and it is impossible for the Maple Leaf Alliance to not have a defensive force deployed here. The troops that Linda had arranged to defend this section were the armies of the three tribes, and as soon as they saw the enemy charge, the three troops immediately prepared for battle, as Linda had taught.
Dozens of instructors on the front line nervously ran back and forth between positions, motivating the fighting spirit of the soldiers and conveying various combat orders.
"Hold on!
"Grenadiers ready! Wait until they're halfway through before cutting off the entrance!"
"Hold on! Hold on! Don't rush these guys to the top!"
"Okay!
"Kill!"
When the four Shura troops broke into most of the valley, two loud noises suddenly sounded from the cliffs on the left and right sides of the valley entrance, and dozens of boulders more than ten meters high suddenly rolled down from the cliffs, and at the same time, more boulders fell from the cliffs on both sides of the river bank, like mudslides, overwhelmingly pressing the enemy troops below.
The wolf clan and other troops were caught off guard, and hundreds of soldiers were suddenly crushed by the boulder, even the transformed refining soldiers could not resist the crushing of the boulder weighing tens or hundreds of tons, and there was a ghost crying wolf howl, and the entire forward force suddenly suffered heavy casualties.
But the demonized soldiers had almost no sense of fear, and they did not flinch at all because of the huge casualties, but because they smelled the bloody smell of their companions' tragic deaths, and after hearing the screams of their companions, they became even more bloodthirsty and crazy. Under the leadership of the officers, the forward troops, although disrupted by the boulder flow, immediately launched an organized attack on the cliffs on both sides, while more troops continued to charge into the valley without fear.
Outside the valley, the main force of the Shura army was blocked out of the valley by the boulder flow, and more than 400,000 people were blocked outside the valley mouth, but this did not stop this killing force from continuing to advance. The officers of the Shura army immediately drove the troops over the boulders and into the valley. Most of the Shura soldiers are soldiers of the Tiannan subordinate race, almost all of them are body refiners, and after transformation, they are not only infinitely powerful, but also good at running and jumping, so the obstacles formed by the boulders do not pose much of an obstacle to them, and they are like flexible rock sheep, jumping into the valley.
However, when the first wave of troops climbed over the boulders, countless bows and spears suddenly shot out from the valley, and a large number of boulders fell into the sky like raindrops.
This was the counterattack of the alliance forces, who took advantage of the fact that the Shura army was blocked and crowded by the boulders, and concentrated a large number of bows and arrows and stone-throwing tools in the hidden places of the valley mouth to attack these dense troops. Alliance soldiers are also alchemists, and although the weapons they use are similar to those of mortal bows and arrows, stone throwers, etc., they are much larger and more powerful. Several Refining Soldiers can work together to wield a rope-throwing weapon that can throw boulders weighing nearly a ton to a kilometer away, and they can also throw a five-meter-long sharpened giant wood at the enemy like a spear, using a tough iron bow and arrows. These seemingly simple but extremely effective weapons were manipulated by the alliance army to show their might, and they looked at the Shura army fiercely. For a time, the Shura army was full of mourning, flesh and blood were flying, and every step forward had to pay a huge price.
In the valley, the fifty or sixty thousand troops of the four tribes including the wolf tribe who had just entered the valley were suddenly surrounded by hundreds of thousands of alliance troops who had been waiting for a long time, and countless attacks were like a tide of attacks covering this lone army, and the alliance army formed a charge of troops, launching a fierce counter-charge, cutting the army of these four tribes into several parts, and constantly concentrating their forces to encroach, and the army of these four tribes suddenly fell into a bitter battle, and was wiped out little by little by the alliance forces that had the advantage.
"Bastard!When will the southern fall of the sky know how to use tricks?!"
A high-ranking leader of the Shura clan grumbled loudly as he dodged the bow and arrow above his head in exasperation. This officer's race is the first to defect to the Shura tribe, the flying dove clan, and he looks like a sharp-beaked monkey gill, but his cultivation is in the middle of the infant realm, and he is a rare high-ranking monk among the soldiers of the Tiannan race.
He glanced at a pitch-black cloud behind the Shura army, saw that there was no reaction inside, and saw that the charging troops in front were blocked, and the allied forces trapped in the valley were surrounded and attacked by the alliance forces. Immediately gritted his teeth, and ordered: "Iron Wing Army, attack! Knock down the positions on both sides of the valley for me!"
Soon, an army of flying flew out of the Shura army. The soldiers of this army looked exactly like the senior commanders, they were all flying doves, and on their backs grew two small five-haired meat wings, which fluttered slightly, emitting bursts of strange flashes, making the soldiers float from the ground, flying nimbly at a speed no less than that of a bird, and swooping down from the air to the sides of the valley.
Seeing that the Shura army dispatched its flying troops, the defenders in the valley immediately reacted, and some of the iron bows immediately pointed upwards and shot at the flying dove troops under control.
Although the dense array of bows and arrows killed and injured a large number of Flying Dove soldiers, many of them still rushed up the cliff and fought against the Alliance troops stationed on it. These Flying Dove Clan soldiers are all monk soldiers, and each of them has a cultivation that is no less than the realm realm, and one person can deal with more than 5 Alliance Refining Soldiers. After a fierce battle, the alliance soldiers gradually could not hold it, and the cliff positions on both sides were gradually captured by the flying dove soldiers.
Without the attack of the defenders on the cliff, the pressure of the Shura people who charged the valley mouth was suddenly relieved, and they worked together to open the gravel flow in the valley mouth, and finally opened a passage of dozens of meters, and the army swarmed in from this passage like a tide, rushing to all parts of the valley.
At this time, the first batch of tribal troops such as the wolf tribe who entered the valley had been killed and wounded, and the alliance army had achieved such a victory as soon as the war began, and the morale was immediately great, but the leading officers were not dizzy because of the small victory, they kept in mind Linda's battle deployment, and as soon as they saw that the main force of the Shura army had crossed the valley, they immediately gave the order to retreat.
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat to the second front!
The general of the Ye family, who was in charge of commanding this war zone, ordered loudly, and soon, the alliance defenders who were still struggling to kill the Shura army just now immediately retreated from the battlefield and retreated to their respective defensive positions according to the plan. However, in the course of the battle, there were still many troops who fell into a state of frenzy because of their love of war, or fell into a state of fanaticism, and self-righteously charged, lost control, and were surrounded and annihilated by the Shura army that continued to fight. This is also because the alliance army has just been formed, and the various units are fighting their own battles, so it is not possible to achieve coordination and unity.
However, after this great battle at Taniguchi, the alliance army actually annihilated 30,000 or 40,000 Shura troops in one go, and even blocked the Shura army for more than an hour, which is almost unprecedented since the outbreak of the war.
Next, even more tragic battles broke out. After the Shura army entered the valley, it immediately dispersed into dozens of troops, scattered in all directions of the valley, constantly looking for the alliance defenders in the valley, and at the same time constantly advancing forward, trying to cross the valley and fight out of the valley.
However, the thousands of defenders in the valley firmly blocked the advance of the Shura army, and a large number of defenders were stationed in every dangerous place in the valley, and they bravely counterattacked with the extremely favorable terrain, killing and wounding a large number of enemy troops at a very small cost of casualties. What's more, the alliance army had already set a large number of traps in the valley, and with the sneak attack troops that had not appeared, they also caused heavy casualties to the cultivation army.
When the Shura army is attacking, any ordinary-looking rock wall may be hidden in a trap or defender set by the alliance army, all kinds of boulders and bows and arrows are shot out unexpectedly, or a defender can suddenly kill out of the oblique crevice, fight under the cover of smoke, and then mysteriously retreat... Every step forward of the Shura army had to pay a heavy price.
High in the air, although after most of the day's fighting, the three super powerhouses continued to fight, but the intensity did not decrease at all, and there was no mana loss on both sides. Sensing the fierce battle below, the attack of the old troll man was immediately retracted, and he asked Linda in the battle formation on the opposite side with a little surprise: "I didn't expect that the Tiannan Fall, which has always been weak, has such combat power in the time that you have led it for only a few months, it seems that it is not without reason that Bo Nai and the others were defeated in your hands." ”
"Hmph, you know. With us here, it is impossible for you to cross this valley. If you don't want to suffer too many casualties, if you are interested, you should withdraw quickly!!, otherwise, you will be greeted by the annihilation of the whole army!" Linda replied coldly, while quietly reaching out to wipe the beads of sweat that kept dripping from his face.
"Hahaha! Is it? What if there are many casualties? Anyway, it is not our Shura army that died! You persuaded me to withdraw because your mana is almost consumed now, right? Don't think that the old man doesn't know! What kind of thing are you defenders, the old man will destroy them first, and then clean up the ants below. But before that, I want you to see all your troops die in front of your eyes! What Maple Leaf Alliance? Let me show you the true strength of our demon army today!"
The old man let out a long roar and issued an order in a strange voice to the black air mass that had been floating behind the Shura army. The same howl immediately responded, and all kinds of ghosts and wolves howled out from the air mass, accompanied by a terrifying chill and earth-shattering aura, the real demon army finally slaughtered from the mysterious air mass and joined the battle in the valley.
