Chapter 540: The Steel Wall
This sudden decisive battle caused the two clans to be damaged to a certain extent, and the crazy actions of the undead made the unsuspecting coalition army suffer a big loss, after all, you yourself were not ready for a decisive battle, but the enemy's decisive assault collided violently, as the saying goes, the stupid are afraid of the Leng, the Leng, the Leng, the afraid of dying!
Therefore, in this decisive battle in which the undead finally bloomed, a total of more than 40,000 undead suddenly exchanged the lives of nearly 100,000 coalition troops, plus the superposition of the first four days of battle damage, the undead probably killed 2.7 people on each side, and this is not counting the more wounded coalition troops and the large-scale setting fire to the granary by the ghost assassins in the decisive battle, etc., and even many of the war horses of the Terran cavalry and the war wolves of the wolf clan were burned to death by the skyrocketing fire, or were frightened and ran to the wilderness.

Although the losses of the ghost assassin guerrillas were extremely heavy as a result, no matter how you calculate it, it is still the undead side that makes a lot of money.
Affected by this, the coalition forces of the two clans had to retreat and start to rest in advance, and wait for the next batch of grain in the rear to be able to be transported to their hands, otherwise it is likely that there will be big problems with the food of the coalition forces in the future!
Now the coalition forces have actually begun to take up the hunting work that only hunters do, after all, so much grain has been burned, if they don't go out to collect some food, maybe before the new grain arrives, the coalition army will starve to death.
If it weren't for the fact that the undead were in too much hurry to capture these two areas, they didn't have time to carry out a large-scale bloodbath on the surrounding creatures, so they had to be directly requisitioned to either confront the two clans, or follow the leader of the pioneer to go to the dwarf king capital for a decisive battle in the royal capital, so there are still a lot of creatures here, and even many dwarf crops are intact with heavy fruits or grains kept there, so the coalition army finally persevered.
But it is foreseeable that the coalition army does not have a month that does not want to start again, after all, the loss this time can reach close to 150,000 or so, those who are lightly injured are good to say, the best result of the seriously injured is to retire after amputation, and even most people can't survive for long, after all, in the attack of the undead, it is either highly poisonous or plague, so the seriously injured people are basically not saved, and they can only survive on their own, so the final death toll will definitely exceed the number of 150,000, and the coalition army is only about 800,000 in total, and there are about one-eighth of the casualties at once, and there are still people who keep dying, how much combat effectiveness can you say such a troop can have?
Therefore, after the battle of Foundry City ended, Yetan City had at least a month and a half of rest and preparation time, so there was no need to worry, after all, the other party had temporarily lost the strength to fight again.
At the same time, the battle of the dwarf royal capital has also entered the city from outside the city, the outer city of the dwarf royal capital has finally been opened a gap after experiencing the shaking of the earth element and the never-ending winch wave of the undead meat grinder, and the undead swarmed in, although the defenders of the dwarf royal capital resisted, but after two full days and two nights of fierce fighting, the dwarves whose physical strength belonged to the category of flesh and blood creatures were finally crushed by exhaustion in the end, and finally the undead broke through the dwarves' defense lines, and the strong of the dwarves were also restrained by the strong men of the undead to contain their attacks, and finally they could only watch the city break, fortunately, The royal capital has undergone three expansions, so there are a total of three city walls, although the back two are not as tall and strong as the outermost city walls, but during this time, the dwarves did nothing, they increased the height and thickened the city walls, not to mention, but also filled with steel, these are the iron ore stored in the various resource warehouses of the dwarf king's capital, after finding that the outer wall because of the whole earth and stone structure caused those lumps (earth elements) to be able to walk through at will, the dwarves immediately began to think of a way.
In the end, it was found that if a large amount of steel was added to the middle part of the city wall, then it could effectively prevent the enemy from entering directly through the wall, and the corners of the wall and other places should also be paved with iron plates, although this would cost iron ore, but the dwarves with deep pockets did not care, anyway, now it is a matter of life and death, if the battle is defeated, then what is the use of those ores?
Therefore, the gritted and ruthless dwarves finally pulled out all their stocks and began to renovate the second and third walls on a large scale while the first wall was still alive, trying to resist in turn, consume the living power of the undead, and finally launch a counterattack, just like they did 100 years ago, first resolutely defend and then thunder.
It's a pity that in the end, the speed of the first city wall was broken was still faster than the progress of the second city wall, so when the undead soldiers came to the city, the steel of the second city wall completed the surface part, although the defensive nature of the city wall has been greatly improved, but because the laying on the ground has not been completed, the earth element legion still found a way to enter after some effort, and finally succeeded in sneaking in again, but at the moment when they just appeared, the dwarves who had been prepared immediately split their heads and covered their faces and beat them up, this time the earth element did not have the advantage of the city gate hole, and could only fight with the dwarf army in the open areaIn the end, when he found that the sacrifice was huge and the gain was not much, Wang Fan decisively ordered that such an attack was forbidden, this was not a surprise operation, but a head-sending operation!
In the end, the method of attack returned to the initial continuous bombardment day and night, and after the city wall was transformed and attached with a layer of iron plates, the second wall of the dwarf king capital was extremely strong, so even if a specially polished stone bullet was used, it had no effect, at most, it was to rely on the impact force to smash the iron plate into a pit, and the internal earth and stone structure was smashed slightly trembling, and the poison gas and plague were not very effective, after all, such biochemical combat dwarves have already experienced, so basically there are some local methods that can try to make themselves survive。
After a day of continuous combat without effect, Wang Fan had to order Kelsugaard to come to his place immediately, he wanted to go to see Kelsugaard's laboratory in person, after all, sometimes, the undead think that things are waste, but many times they can give birth to miracles in the hands of living beings, so Wang Fan immediately took Kelsugaard to the Undead Research Institute and the Undead Alchemy Room set up in the depths of the underground of the ruins plane.
