Chapter 1257: The Legion Returns
Brimstone, fire, blood, magma!
"Haha, how does it feel to have failed a plan?"
On a cliff, a portal suddenly took shape, and Dvořák walked out with a leisurely demeanor, and teased Heinrich who was standing silently next to him.
In the canyon, the First Ace Division, known as the 'Star of Death', is besieging an Abyss Grand Commander, and the orderly joint operation between the various arms is like a gorgeous and grand symphony concert, full of pleasing beauty.
"Annoyed?"
The first nova stimulated Heinrich, who was usually not serious, and only in front of people of the same status would he show this demeanor.
The orc kingdom is a three-power co-existence, the king, the senate, and the temple pope, all of which hold one-third of the supreme power, but at the king's banquet, His Majesty the Pope actually launched a bloody long night plan to destroy the entire orc kingdom and sacrifice it to the evil gods.
It turned out that the supreme crown had been killed and replaced by the False Patriarch, the number one wise man under the command of the evil god, and according to Homer's later guess, the king could not have noticed no signs at all, so it is likely that he used the bloody night to achieve his ulterior plan.
In fact, the king did so, he relied on the bloody long night to clean up the old aristocratic forces that were old-fashioned, and let the younger generation of new forces take power, eager to rely on their determination to make the whole empire revitalize, but he didn't expect that the situation was out of control.
The younger generation did not follow the king's train of thought, and most of them worshipped Heinrich. Accepting his new ideas, he wanted to build an ideal kingdom according to his own ideas.
The king was decadent and mourned for his incompetence. But he didn't know that his plan was originally successful, but Heinrich intervened sideways, and had already used perfect words to bewitch those heroes of the younger generation, and finally the fisherman profited.
In an undercurrent that no one is aware of, the world is moving roughly in the direction he expected under Heinrich's manipulation.
Of course. There was also some small surprise, that is, the appearance of the holy coffin.
The snowstorm was caused by the joint efforts of Heinrich and the False Patriarch, after the latter's death. Heinrich would use financial aid and the support of new forces to gain unprecedented prestige in the Orc Kingdom, and then form a united front.
You must know that the strongest human empire in the north of the continent is Jutland. There are countless second- and third-rate countries in between. The orc kingdom is more northerly, and once they unite, there is no need for war, and the entire north will be Heinrich's pocket.
If this is achieved, Heinrich will be the first person in tens of thousands of years, you must know that even the eight holy coffins have no great feat of unifying the northern countries without blood.
The previous NATO alliance led by Heinrich was actually set up for this goal. It was only disrupted by Downton, and this time. It's the holy coffin that adds to the chaos.
Professor Abu is the king of the giant beasts, Assadin, he saw the impending predicament of the beasts thousands of years ago, so he opened up a secret realm in the holy mountain of Astrakhan, cultivated crops, and raised livestock, and now, these foods continue to enter the kingdom, so that the hungry and cold orcs can survive.
Heinrich gave up financial aid, because no matter how great the price he paid, he would be insignificant in the face of the miracles of Asadine, and the orcs would only pay homage to the Holy Mountain to pay homage to their wise men, their Holy Emperor, their eternal guiding light!
"You're here to see me just to talk this nonsense?" Heinrich pouted, "I'm short on time, so I don't have time to talk to you!"
"Of course not, I'm here to tell you that you didn't go to the Dragon Cemetery, but the biggest mistake is because your fiancée is in love with someone else!"
The first Nova is all about schadenfreude.
"Get out or die!"
Heinrich didn't roar, but in an instant, an endless soul tsunami swept across the battlefield, and all the low-level creatures directly exploded their heads and died.
Dvořák's goal was achieved, and he stepped out and disappeared in place.
"Check it out!"
Heinrich's fists clenched, and his heart became a little confused.
"Yes!"
A respectful response was heard in the air beside him.
White clouds are curling, and the blue sky is like washing!
Downton took the fortress to the Saraje front, and also used the trivial rest time to figure out the current situation in the Western Continent.
Previously, the Orc Kingdom of Serrovo, which had suffered from a thousand years of snowstorms, was undoubtedly the eye of the storm, but now, the Battle of Frankfurt has attracted the attention of the whole continent.
Behind Downton stood the Lombard League and Yves Saint Laurent, so this war involved dominance of the northern continent.
The civilians don't understand this, they only know that in less than a month after the start of the war, Downton destroyed two second-rate countries without relying on anyone, and asked more than 100 surrounding countries to send envoys to sue for peace.
Now, the bards of the taverns are singing about Downton's deeds, and he is of greatest interest to everyone, and even the grocery shop on the street knows about such a young man.
No way, from a commoner postman to the hand of the king who is in charge of the fate of tens of millions of people, this process is simply too inspiring, and it has been an example for countless young people struggling at the bottom of society to fight for and inspire.
Downton was dying of headaches, the world only saw his achievements, but not his hard work, with Dortmund attacking, the whole front was already in jeopardy.
This legion with the nickname of the Devil's Hornet fights a battle, they are the best at assaulting the whole army, blooming more, once the enemy can not withstand the pressure in a certain place and shows a flaw, the Hornet will use excellent mobility, quickly assemble, and then use the run-and-gun tactics to force the crush, and then break each one.
At this time, the other corps will also be responsible for containing and harassing, in short, they will perform their duties and will not waste a trace of troops.
Because of the tactical relationship, Bumblebee has a number of cavalry corps, the number of which is the highest in Jutland, and this time the war began. They did not assemble and wait for a decisive battle, but once the corps arrived. He immediately crossed the border, raided the enemy's territory, raged like a wild wolf, and ignited a beacon fire.
The defeat of the Hellbirds caused Legion Commander Klopp to put away his contempt for Downton and treat him as an Imperial Commander.
You must know that Klopp is one of the top ten generals of Jutland, and he is ranked among the nine empires. Once his evaluation of Downton is passed out, it will definitely gild Downton with a layer of golden light.
"This is a tricky enemy!"
In the fortress command room, Nicole analyzes the information sent from the front. Amazed.
Klopp is well aware of the strengths and weaknesses of both sides and expands them to the limit.
Bumblebee has an absolute superiority in troops, and when it comes to combat effectiveness, Downton has nothing but a few racial corps under his command. The other human legions were no match at all. Now you can only retreat and shrink back on all fronts, otherwise if you collide, you will be annihilated and captured.
The Drow Ranger was dispatched, but after just a victory, he was targeted, and the cavalry regiments attacked and killed, and Drow fought and shifted at the same time. But a day later, I found myself almost surrounded. It turned out that the enemy had already planned to lure them to attack, and those routes that were easy to divert were deliberately left by the enemy.
Now, the encirclement was layered on top of each other, like layers of cobwebs, gradually tightening, until the Drow cavalry regiment was strangled.
"I'm not going to fail!"
Mavi cursed, looked at the hill in the direction of ten o'clock, and tightened her whip, the victory in the last game had made her get carried away lately, and she looked down on humans, and as a result, she fell into the current situation.
"General, do you need to attack early? The commander has already seen through our tactics. ”
The chief of staff regrets that if it takes another half a day, the encirclement will be flawless, and then the enemy will become a turtle in an urn, and there is only one way to die.
"Inform the whole army, attack!"
Gundogan did not hesitate at all, pulled out his saber, and swung forward sharply, Commander Drow is very talented, and then continue to implement the plan, it is not good that she will break through, and before the war, all the destruction of Drow, in addition to timely reinforcements, to ensure that superior forces to deal with the arrival of Downton, also has a huge political significance, that is, it can boost the morale of the whole army and let the northern countries know that the Jutland army will never be invincible.
Castle of Saraje, command room.
"I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to go out and kill those infantry!"
The black hand roared, and those infantry shouted in front of the gate every day, insulting his ancestors, and making him unbearable.
"Absolutely not!"
Hamlet hurried to stop it, and in order to avoid the embarrassing scene of meeting Downton, he ran to the front.
"You've said many times that you can't do it, but now if I don't put some pressure on the enemy, those cavalry will continue to go deeper with impunity!"
The Black Hand argued, "I'm going to make a decisive stance, attract their forces and relieve the pressure on the other defensive lines!"
"It won't be alleviated, Klopp's tactical intentions are already very clear, he won't come up and fight a decisive battle with the legion, but chooses to break each one, at least weaken the army, you go out now, not to mention the battleship shelling, even the mage regiment and the ground troops can't cope with it!"
Harley urges.
"General, the enemy's mage regiment has been dispatched, and is preparing for a large-scale magic attack. ”
The scout panicked and came to report.
"Too much deception!"
The black hand smashed the conference table into sawdust with a punch and got up to leave, "I can't wait." ”
"There's no way, the enemy is forcing us to make a move, Thyssen, Barty, you go and mobilize the legions, prepare for a defensive battle, and try to hold out until Downton's arrival. ”
Halley copes.
"Don't you support the Black Hand?"
Thyssen is not happy, and the belligerent factor of the giants makes him prefer to attack.
"If we lose too many troops, we won't even have a chance to fight a decisive battle in the end. Harley warned, "Downton must be coming soon, otherwise the enemy would not have been in such a hurry!"
It's evening, and this is definitely not a good time to siege the city, knowing that the dwarves are an underground race and are good at night fighting.
"Captain, it's ...... time"
The chief of staff frowned, tried to persuade, but was stopped.
"I trust my soldiers, and they will open the door to victory for me!"
Klopp rode his horse, looking at the castle in the distance, and suddenly grinned, his face full of golden beard, making him look like a hideous lion. It seems to be picking people to eat.
Suddenly, there was a slight running sound on the battlefield, which quickly grew louder and soon roared like thunder.
The Black Hand Heavy Cavalry Regiment was dispatched, and the brilliant sunset shone on their armor, sprinkling a carpet of orange-red light!
Without Klopp's command, the light cavalry, who had been on standby for a long time, immediately pounced, and instead of using their mantis arms as a cart, they took out their crossbows with bursting arrows to attack.
Whoa!
The arrows were like locusts, and the light horsemen were equipped with repeating crossbow bows, and the index finger that pulled the trigger was not loosened, and six short arrows were shot directly.
The dwarves shrank back and lifted their hammers to block as far as they could.
Boom! Boom!
The arrows exploded, and the powerful impact raged, and ordinary people were already knocked off their horses and blown into rotten meat, but the dwarves only shook their bodies a few times, and the speed of the charge did not decrease.
There is no way, not to mention the excellent defense of the hill dwarves themselves, their armor is all of the perfect level, this kind of combat power of one enemy and hundred, Downton naturally has to focus on protection, and he is eager to arm them into a human chariot.
Seeing that the dwarven cavalry did not lose a single horse, the pupils of the second batch of bumblebee light horsemen who rushed up shrank sharply, but the tactical movements that had been practiced tens of thousands of times had become instinct, taking off the crossbow, winding, aiming at the weak position, shooting, the whole set of actions flowed smoothly and in one go.
The smoke and dust of the explosion raged.
Run-and-gun tactics began, with the light cavalry taking the trouble to charge closer, shoot, and then detour away, reload their arrows, and do it all over again.
The attack of the bumblebee was like a storm, and it did not stop at all, and how many elite legions collapsed and collapsed under this offensive.
"Leave them alone, charge!"
The black hand roared, although the dwarf heavy rider was not slow because of the iron spine dragon under his crotch, and he could catch up with the light horseman, but killing them all did not destroy a hundred-person mage group of great value.
Airplanes!
After a crossbow tremble, the heavy infantry regiment, which had already completed the formation, saw a huge fireball flying out of the castle opposite, and after whistling, it smashed on the corps near the mage regiment with a bang.
There were fist-sized sparks flying around, and several soldiers flew out screaming.
"Shield defense, ready to attack!"
The commander of 10,000 people immediately responded, this shot, apparently a test firing calibration, and the next thing must be a catapult bombardment.
Sure enough, after a brief silence, the sound of a cowhide band breaking suddenly sounded, and then thousands of fireballs rose into the air, enveloping the sky and igniting the long dark night.
"Put!"
Bumblebee's catapult regiment also fought back, and countless flaming logs shot out, trying to intercept the opponent's attack, but this hasty attack had no effect.
Burning fireballs fell, and two-thirds of them fell above the mages, creating a translucent magical barrier that intercepted them.
Boom! Boom!
These fireballs are all burning logs, filled with some explosives, but they are not powerful enough to break through the barriers.
Seeing this scene, the mages in charge of the attack division were relieved and continued to prepare large-scale magic, as for the other fireballs that fell in the infantry regiment, it was none of their business. (To be continued......)
