Chapter 120: Stormwind City Crisis
"Your Majesty, Darwin and Scurry are leading their troops to Boulder City, where there is a 'fortress' golem that is in a sealed state, should we send another one over? Augsg said.
"What Aiqing said is that the war tree people of the elven race have played a huge role in the previous demon hunting war, defeating two demon legions in one fell swoop, and our 'fortress' golem does not have such an ability. According to Aiqing's words, two 'fortress' golems were proposed from the battle reserve warehouse, one was sent to Boulder City and one was sent to Stormwind City, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, no matter how bad it was, it was a big deal that we used the golems to slaughter the elven army outside Stormwind City. Brun Seth said.
"Your Majesty, this seems inappropriate, and we should exercise restraint. Augsg said. The king can be unrealistic, but as a military minister, he can't go crazy with the king. Both the human race and the elf race have a common enemy, so the current battle is restrained, and the strategic force is only used for siege, the siege is not the same as the battle, if the strategic force is used in the battle, it is a slaughter. If the two sides are really red-eyed, it will be terrible.
"Well, now is indeed not the time for an all-out war with the elves, and when the demons are driven away, we will have another good fight. Alas, I just don't know when the demon was cast away. Brunn Seth looked up at the dome of the palace and said in amazement.
"Your Majesty doesn't need to sigh, even if we can't drive the demons away, our children and grandchildren will definitely drive them away. Justice will triumph!"
"Hehe," Bren Seth smiled, "Aiqing, you look like those old gods of the Holy See of Light." ”
"To hide it from Your Majesty, in fact, when I was a child, my wish was to be a priest of the Holy See of Light. It's just that fate is impermanent, and no one thought that I would become the Minister of Military Affairs, first to assist His Majesty Kulen, and now to assist you. Augsg said.
"That's why I believe in you. ”
"Your Majesty Xie trusts. ”
Brun Seth wrote an edict ordering the War Reserve to unseal two "fortress" golems, one to Boulder and the other to Stormwind, each escorted by a Janissary squadron.
The "fortress" golem is fifty steps long, eighty steps wide, and eighty steps high, which is much smaller than the war treeman, but the "fortress" golem has an independent energy extraction, storage and supply system, which can extract energy from various elemental sources including sunlight, moonlight, shadows, gravity, etc., and is very powerful, which has twelve large cannons and a large number of magic arrays, and its defense is also extremely strong, and most importantly, it is an alchemical life, has a soul, and has the ability to think independently. Maybe it's not as good as War Treeman, but it can be mass-produced, and there are many more of them than War Treeman.
If it weren't for the scale of the war, the Terrans could take out a hundred "fortress" golems to participate in the battle, but the elves only had twenty-two war treads.
This is a duel between alchemy life and natural life, almost a five-to-one ratio, if you really want to fight, the elf clan will lose.
This is where the strength of the Terrans' hardline attitude comes from - the outnumbered and overwhelming. Whether it is ordinary soldiers or high-end strategic forces, there are too many Terrans.
Unbeknownst to Bullene Seth and Augsig, their move has saved Stormwind.
Stormwind is also in a dangerous state.
Originally, there were 23,000 officers and soldiers stationed here with the 2nd Infantry Brigade and a light cavalry squadron of the Terran "One-Eyed" Legion, so there were no other reinforcements.
Now it's hard to stay behind the "one-eyed" second brigade, and the siege outside the city is the elven "Red Leaf" legion, and the Red Leaf Legion sent its own three brigades, using wheel tactics, to attack the city around the clock, and wait for work.
The "Red Leaves" army could wait for work, and each unit took turns to fight, but the "One-Eyed" second brigade could not, and they could only drag their tired bodies to garrison the city walls.
The light cavalry was almost useless in this situation, and could only be used as archers, but fortunately, the "Red Leaves" army seemed to be afraid of deception in the city, so they never carried out large-scale attacks, and only used small forces to probe them.
In the headquarters, the captain of the "One-Eyed" Second Brigade Stern has been smoking a cigar all the time.
The cigar he smoked could not have been a Grim cigar, but only a medium color.
"Ladies and gentlemen, my plans have been exhausted, and the Legion Commander of the 'Red Leaves', Jane Theon, is not a fool, although he is overly cautious. I hid a squadron and gave the other side that our plan to deceive the city was about to fail, and it would not be long before the other side would know that we were bluffing, and then they would launch a complete large-scale siege. It will take at least a day for the first brigade to arrive in support of the Legion, but we won't last that long, so let's see what to do. ”
Stern is a general, and he is too cautious about Jane Sean, the commander of the "Red Leaves" legion, and comes to a false and real situation, giving the other party a false impression of waiting for you to come over, and then you will be scheming, so that the second team can block a legion for three days with the strength of a team, and if it is replaced by someone else, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold out for a day.
Several squadron leaders sat around the table, all with sad faces.
"Sir, even a large group will not help, we have already lost more than half of us, and the brothers are also exhausted and have almost lost their ability to fight. When a large group comes, they have to resist a full army with a large army, just like us, which is just a drop in the bucket. The third squadron leader said.
"It's not our second ancestor corps commander who threw one of our brigades here, saying that the military headquarters ordered us to stand by and let us hold on for half a month. Half a month. He thinks we're gods!" said the Squadron Leader angrily.
"No way, he is the son of the Minister of Taxation under the Ministry of Finance, and Lord Augsg also wants to give the Minister of Finance some face, but it's a pity that we are blessed and distributed to him. Stern said.
The "one-eyed" corps commander is the only son of the Chancellor of the Exchequer Caliph, named Pyle, who doesn't know the art of war at all, or is forced in, and the officers under his command have a lot of complaints about this stupid and afraid of death.
"Yes, we are blessed, and my brothers who were together before have entered the 'Black Vulture', the 'Black Flag Army' and the 'Red Clothes Army', although their positions are lower than mine, and the highest is only a centurion, but every time we meet, in front of them, I can't raise my head. The second squadron leader said.
"It is said that the commanders of these three legions are still good brothers. ”
"This kind of legion, I'd rather go in and be a small soldier than continue to stay in 'One-Eye'!"
"Okay, let's see how we survive. ”
Stearns took another puff of his cigar and exhaled pale blue smoke......
