Chapter 260: The Cursed Plague (Part II)
"Is there no problem?" Nilo frowned, muttered softly, and said to the court priest, "You check again, during this time, prisoners of war are not allowed to contact anyone." ”
"Yes, General!"
......
Nilo and Li Jun's caution and suspicion are actually the same, because they both used such despicable methods, so they inexplicably had a strong vigilance in their hearts, and they were always not at ease.
After a thorough investigation for six days, and after making sure that no infectious toxins had occurred, Nilo sent the group of prisoners of war to the Mushi Hospital for treatment.
The two sides ceased fighting for half a month, and after some amendments, Nilo issued the "Order to Attack Modu" on a certain day.
The prisoners of war had recovered from their wounds and rejoined the battle sequence, and Nilo had not heard the news of the death of the Desert due to the contagious virus, and the plan was declared fruitless, so he had to take measures to attack.
Nilo is an excellent general, whether it is the battle to lead the Fifth Empire to expand its territory, or the battle for the eastern city of the Desert Duchy, he has vividly interpreted his military talent, defeating many experienced veteran generals.
In the face of Nilo, Li Jun was not sure to defeat him in a military campaign, the other party has received an elite education since childhood, involving politics, military, economy, power and other aspects, and Li Jun, as a destitute traveler in his previous life, has too thin a foundation and started too late, so he can only use extraordinary means to redeem the defeat.
The mighty cavalry army set out from more than ten eastern cities of the principality and attacked Modu in three ways.
The Fifth Empire also quickly dispatched 200,000 troops to fight against the Tulip Empire's army with the cavalry divisions of the Ebelon Empire.
300,000 iron cavalry marched west, more than 500 heavy energy artillery, more than 2,000 light energy artillery, and 30,000 iron horned rhino legions, forming an absolute superior force, threatening to occupy Modu within two months!
......
"My dear people, the Principality has reached the moment of life and death, and at this time, I hope that you will be able to unite and defeat the evil invading army and defend the territory of the Principality and the homeland of all! At the pre-war mobilization meeting, Li Jun wore brand new armor, which shone in the sunlight and shimmered with a cold metallic luster.
Li Jun's words were loud and impassioned, holding his sword high, pointing at the golden sun, and shouting hoarsely.
The soldiers in the audience shouted long live, murderous and awe-inspiring, holding the swords in their hands, and slapping their shields and chest armor sonorously.
Since its founding, the Principality has survived countless difficulties and calamities, and like a little plant in the desert, it has been ravaged by the heat and sand, and the next day, it is still standing there to welcome a new day.
In everyone's mind, Li Jun is invincible, and the principality cannot be defeated! In the brainwashing plan of several years, the people of the principality worship and worship Li Jun like a 'god', and without the trouble of Shuke, and he is a cover for Li Jun, now, the principality has become a paradise full of freedom, without faith and doctrine, and some, only unwarranted worship and fanaticism for Li Jun.
The tense atmosphere before the war enveloped the entire desert capital.
Modu has been completely locked down, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.
Every day, there are hideous and terrifying monsters, patrolling the streets and alleys.
In addition to the strongest cavalry legion established by Li Jun - the Iron Bear Legion, there is also a small part of the Iron Back Dragoon Army, which is composed of the Iron Back Dragon and human cavalry, and then there is the Fire Wolf Cavalry Army, the Demon Leopard Cavalry Army, and a Sky Air Force - Chimera Air Force.
No other country, like the Principality of the Great Desert, has popularized Warcraft into every military branch.
The Abbyron Empire has two major proud Warcraft Legions, namely the Iron-backed Earth Dragon Army, which has swept through various cavalry teams on the continent, and the 100,000 Iron-Horned Rhino Legion, which is even more terrifying than the heavy cavalry of its country, it is like a meat stirring machine in war, and there is no heavy cavalry that can withstand the collision of the Iron-Horned Rhino Knights.
The combination of man + red horse + iron armor, the combination of the master + iron horn rhino + iron armor, the difference between high and low can be seen immediately.
There are also 10,000 griffin knight legions of the Lorens Empire, which occupy the entire sky domain, except for special weapons, the rest of the troops are like prey, and can only be hunted passively.
And now, every branch of the army under Li Jun's command has Warcraft as war horses, if he has more soldiers, and also has technical resources such as the production of heavy artillery, magic bed crossbows, and military factories, it is no longer a distant dream to become the strongest empire on the mainland.
In the tense waiting, Li Jun did not sit idle, but let the soldiers ride the demonic beast and patrol the streets all day long, and began to find the spies hidden in the desert capital.
Niluo is a person that Li Jun knows very well, and with some lessons learned from the past, Li Jun really attaches great importance to the security issues in the city.
After all, once a war starts, at the most critical moment, the back garden suddenly catches fire, and the families of the soldiers who are still fighting bravely are in danger of their lives, and the will to resist will naturally be weakened, and their morale will be greatly reduced.
Every day, several, or even a dozen spies were found out, directly tied to the flagpole, fed to the scavenging eagle, or fed alive to the monsters, as food.
Under the bloody suppression, the spies hidden in the city were all frightened, or wanted to escape from the desert capital, or created a terrorist attack to divert Li Jun's attention.
The wasp is out day and night, patrolling in dark, narrow places, which are very suitable for hiding and evading.
Faced with a swarm of yellow-scaled wasps wearing special metal armor, their bodies were as hard as steel, and ordinary warriors naturally had no ability to resist, and were either bitten to death or captured alive, like a pig being dragged out.
Li Jun is well aware of the importance of intelligence, and his original intention in establishing Torisaitang is to collect useful and useless information for himself, train intelligence experts, conduct reasonable and thorough analysis, and summarize it to Li Jun.
In the underground realm, people only know the names of Butler Zack and Boss Li, but they don't know that Boss Li of Bird Zhai Hall is actually the desert prince who has won nearly a hundred years of glory and glory.
When the big battle came, Nilo's march was too fast, according to Li Jun's estimate, he would have to arrive in six days at the earliest, and as a result, Nilo only took four and a half days.
The heavy supplies were boldly left behind by Nilo, and the heavy artillery and light artillery were sent by the infantry, and he went deep almost alone, leading 120,000 iron horsemen, rolling in dust and sand, to reach Modu, causing a panic and shock.
The siege began, and 120,000 iron horsemen roared in, fearlessly rushing to the city walls and gates.
The fierce confrontation continued, because Nilo led 120,000 iron cavalry into the depths, and there were few siege equipment, but in the face of the black oppressive cavalry team, it still brought great panic to the guards and soldiers of Modu.
The eastern cities of the principality were all destroyed in less than a month in the hands of that young general, and even the mighty Tulip Empire was defeated by that young man, losing hundreds of thousands of soldiers!
The bloody flag fluttered, and in the case of the desert wind during the day, I don't know how the other party made the flag fly.
It's just that the emblem of the Dimeronke family on that banner, the national emblem of the Fifth Empire, made everyone feel great pressure and panic.
Two days later, when the 120,000 iron cavalry was almost short of food and water, hundreds of thousands of follow-up infantry escorted supplies and arrived here with sharp heavy weapons.
"Dear Lord Nilo, are you trying to play psychological warfare with me?" Li Jun held up his lookout glasses and looked at the crowd that was drowning in golden sand, and couldn't help but mutter.
At the beginning, the 120,000 iron cavalry made the soldiers defending Modu feel extreme fear and panic, and now, hundreds of thousands of infantry have brought countless energy cannons and sufficient supplies, and that pressure and fear are undoubtedly deeper.
"Heavy infantry in front, light cavalry behind, protect the siege team, archers and magicians, and attack Modu!" Nilo shouted, and his adjutant immediately waved his military flag and began to mobilize an army of more than 300,000 people.
Once the city gate is breached, the new Principality of the Desert will be destroyed, the entire northwest of the Tulip Empire may fall, and the people of Ebrun, with the quality and belief of wolves, will look at the rich south of the Tulip Empire and pose a threat of annihilation!
"Kill!"
"For the king!!"
Eighty thousand siege troops roared, heavy infantry held their shields high, arrows rained down on the city, and from time to time casualties fell from the charging road and the city walls.
The huge ladder was pushed by the mechanical car to arrive at the city of Modu, and the archers and magicians in the ladder car threw arrows and magic towards the city wall, and the wall bricks the size of a skull fell from time to time, killing and injuring a group of people when they were smashed.
Human life in war is as humble as a mustard, and no one will pity any life, even the life and death of one's own brothers, friends, and lovers.
As a general, he has never been merciful, and he has always been a murderer!
Love soldiers like children?
Verbal high-sounding ......

"Look, there's a griffin flying out of the city!" a mage shouted, pointing to the sky, and several bed crossbows were aimed at the griffin, the sharp bolts tearing through the air and shooting at the griffon's stomach.
Phew!
The griffin swooped down, its wings swirling with the power of the wind elemental, and the arrows were like tofu, and they were all slashed by it.
Not far outside the city of Modu, stands a tall tower, this tower is called the Sacrificial Tower, which was built before the war, and now the tower base has been occupied by the troops of the Alberon Empire.
A griffin burst through the air, and on the back of the griffin, a figure fell down and stood firmly on the tower.
Woo~~
A dull horn sounded, and in the distance, a large number of iron horsemen rushed here, Nilo's eyes were red with blood, and his face was full of excitement, the reason why he wanted to wade into this troubled water, he did not hesitate to agree to King Alberton's harsh conditions, was to kill Li Jun and avenge Angela!
"Humble Li Jun, this time, you will not be able to escape!!" Nilo roared, and more than a dozen wind magicians performed a gliding spell on themselves, like eagles, and arrived at the foot of the tower first, holding their magic staff high, chanting words.
A large number of magicians and marksmen hurried over, and I don't know how many magic bed crossbows there were, covering the clear blue sky.
Li Jun, who was sitting on the sacrificial tower, outlined the arc of his mouth that made people's hearts palpitate, he smiled indifferently, held the scepter high, and the spiral red waves swirled out, and a dark cloud shrouded in, making the originally hot weather become a little cold.
