Chapter 208: The Battle of the Bison Valley (1)
Defend first and then attack' This is the battle plan set by Modo for the new army in the Bison Valley base area in this war, first relying on the favorable terrain at the mouth of the Bison Valley, as well as complete fortifications, to withstand the attack of the troll army first.

Then rely on the fortifications to kill a large number of the living force of the troll army, and greatly reduce the morale of the trolls, and then choose whether to take the initiative according to the situation.
Of course, this so-called battle plan, there is no way to do it, it has been ruled by the troll clan for nearly a thousand years, and the soldiers of all races to which the new army belongs have a natural weakness for the trolls, not allowing them to gradually play with confidence in the defensive battle, and Modo is worried about whether they can play half of the strength of their usual training in battle.
With the transmission of the beacon fire from a hundred miles away, everyone in the base knew that the army of trolls had finally appeared, and the war was about to begin.
According to the plan that had been laid out long ago, all the factories and bases ceased all production, and all the workers, except for the precious craftsmen, received their weapons and became reserves, which they would fill in in case of a crisis in the war.
The 20,000-strong new army, as well as the more than 10,000 young people of all ethnic groups who came to participate in the war spontaneously, all stopped their training and began to recuperate, and the leaders and elders of all ethnic groups all went to the front line of the army to cheer up the soldiers of their own tribes and calm their impatient emotions.
Of course, with the marching speed of the troll army, a distance of a hundred miles, under the condition of ensuring that the combat effectiveness is not affected, even if the trolls speed up, it will take almost a day to arrive, and such a long time can completely allow the defenders in the Bison Valley to make all the preparations.
So when the army of trolls set up a huge camp ten miles away from the mouth of the valley, the two legendary strong commanders of the trolls, the warrior Agilzong and the sorcerer Janare, looked at the defense line of the valley with their personal guards, and saw such a scene.
All the United Resistance personnel shrank into the valley, even with the critical eyes of the two of them, they had to admire, these resistance crumbs did find a good place, surrounded by cliffs, only a two-mile-wide entrance and exit in the middle, and now there were at least fifteen meters of strong walls, all kinds of fortifications, a very difficult look.
However, no matter which troll legendary commander didn't take it very seriously, the casualties were just a little bigger, and they didn't have any doubts about the outcome of the battle.
"Tell the troops, immediately after eating, rest for half a day, and then take this place down with all their might. The sorcerer Janale commanded the herald.
Then the camp of the troll army began to smell of all kinds of food, even the trolls of the ruling class could only ensure that the 100,000 army could be fed, but whether the food was good or not could only be powerless.
"Listen to the traitors inside, great commanders Janalai and Lord Agilzong, mercifully give you one last chance, if you lay down your arms and surrender, and surrender the stowaways from the surface world, you will have the honor ......of keeping your lives alive and becoming slaves of the Empire," a loud troll soldier shouted a mile below the castle to the walls of Taniguchi.
However, before he could say too much nonsense, the little dwarf standing at the head of the city snatched a spear from the soldier beside him and threw it at him, and the shouting troll soldier had no chance to dodge at the terrifying speed.
The spear passed through his body and was nailed to the ground a mile away from the city wall, and there was a sudden earth-shattering cheer above the city, and the originally somewhat oppressive atmosphere immediately became warm.
"I don't know what is alive or dead. Agilzong spat heavily, then waved his hand, and a phalanx of six thousand people moved forward from the large phalanx of one hundred thousand people, moving towards the city wall.
In the battle with another commander, the sorcerer Janare, Agilzong won the right to attack on the first day, and the legendary powerhouse, who was in a little happy, decided to open this line of defense of the resistance on the first day, and did not even leave a chance for Janalai to drink soup.
The 6,000 men sent by the Agil Sect to fight the first battle were also carefully considered, this was the group of troops with relatively strong combat power among the 50,000 troops under his leadership, and the combat strength was second only to his 1,000-man War Bear Guard.
Among them, the main force of 5,000 people is composed of 3,000 infantry, 1,000 archers and 1,000 javelin throwers, which can be said to be the three arms of far, medium and near, plus 1,000 auxiliary troops carrying engineering ladders, maybe a charge can knock down this tall city wall.
Under the confident eyes of the legendary commander Lord Agilzong, the six thousand men came at a normal walking speed to a place two miles below the city wall, and then a war drum was heard from the main formation in the rear, and with this drum, the six thousand men began to trot.
As they trotted all the way to the next mile of the city, the drums of their own camp became rapid, and the trotting trolls began to pick up speed, and finally charged with a complete let go.
The charging trolls let out a loud roar, which is also the usual method used by the trolls in battle, once a large number of weak enemies in their fierce roars, before they have completely picked up, they have already collapsed, but unfortunately it is strange that until they rushed into the three hundred steps under the city wall, the defenders on the city wall did not even shoot a sharp arrow.
"Are they scared stupid. With this doubt in mind, the six thousand men who charged all the way to within a hundred paces of the city wall without any resistance.
Then dozens of sharp iron whistles sounded on the city wall at the same time, and suddenly the entire city wall seemed to come to life, and instantly turned into the most terrifying evil dragon, sending out an inhellish magic fire towards the charging trolls.
Hundreds of tiny fires flashed with a crisp sound, and the hundreds of troll warriors who rushed to the front were like an invisible punch, and then fell to the ground and convulsed.
Then, before the charging trolls could figure out what was going on, a crisp sound rang out one after another, and after six waves in a minute, they were horrified to find that most of their fellow trolls had been killed or wounded, and their sturdy armor had been easily torn open with a hole the size of a wine glass, and blood was flowing outward.
"This is the witchcraft of the evil gods. A frightened voice rang out from the crowd, and then the six thousand charging trolls, after leaving behind more than half of the dead and wounded, retreated desperately......
