Chapter 252: Night Attack
After a day of fierce fighting, everyone fell asleep with their pillows on their heads as soon as they were tired, and the whole camp was silent, except for the wounded who were missing arms and legs, and who were suffering from illness, and who would let out a few miserable snorts from time to time.
Desert nights can plummet with terrifying hurricanes, and if you're unlucky, there may be a sandstorm.
Li Jun's camp is not far from the camp of Odo's army, except for his army of Warcraft, he only brought a thousand soldiers, basically serving as a logistics support task, lighting a fire, cooking a meal or something.
It stands to reason that with the current situation, it is undoubtedly very beneficial to the imperial side, with 400,000 elite troops, more than 1,000 artillery pieces, countless magic bed crossbows, mechanical crossbows, etc., just this kind of fire suppression, even a million army is difficult to rush to the front.
It can be seen from the daytime battle that the opponent's safety is to use light cavalry to open the way, and then follow closely with heavy cavalry, once their own formation is defeated, quickly capture the artillery position, and then the whole army is dispatched to charge and hunt together.
However, Li Jun was still worried, King Alberon and his ministers were not fools, they must have prepared countless means in advance, and the victory of a battle was nothing, maybe the enemy was deliberately paralyzing his side.
Regarding this point, Li Jun also reminded Otto that no matter what the latter's opinions or hatred he had, but after all, it was 400,000 lives, and a negligence would make hundreds of thousands of people disappear.
Although Otto is a new young general, he was born into a family of lords, and he received an elite education from an early age, and did not underestimate the other party with a single victory.
There are open and dark sentinels all over a radius of dozens of kilometers, and there are patrols to cross patrols, all the officers and men are wearing armor to sleep, weapons do not leave their hands, and the artillery sleeps directly in the artillery positions.
Rustling~~
Suddenly, a strange sound was heard, and more than twenty patrol soldiers hurriedly dispersed, holding iron swords in one hand and signal flares in the other.
Immediately, a small snake sprang out of the sand, and the patrol soldiers looked at each other, cursed in a low voice, and a sword light cut down, and the little snake was split in half.
"Be in good spirits! I'll invite everyone to drink when this battle is over!" a captain-looking officer chuckled in a low voice.
"Long live the captain!"
Poof!
Suddenly, a scimitar slashed at the necks of the twenty or so patrolmen, and the attack was too fast for people to react at all.
The throat was cut directly, and not even a scream came out.
The leader of the patrol was a swordsman with a fighting spirit, and an instinct prompted him to lean back, and only a bloody streak appeared in his throat, dodging the mortal attack.
"Enemy ......" Before the captain could shout, a sharp magic dagger easily cut through his rapidly rising Dou Qi Gang and wiped his neck.
Bang!
The corpse fell into the cold sand, and a group of snapping turtles emerged from the sand, their eyes cold and full of violence.
A race in the Canaan continent that is classified by the sages into the ranks of Warcraft (except for humans, the scholars who compiled the book "Compendium of Warcraft" are probably the other races into the ranks of Warcraft, right?)
The race of snapping turtle warriors has been rare so far, since humans have become the absolute rulers of the Canaan continent, whether it is the natural alchemy and forging master dwarf race, or the bloodthirsty and brutal ogre race, or the special race of snapping turtle warriors, they have all been driven into the primeval forest by humans, just like the elven forest, choose a forest, or a place inaccessible to breed and live.
Snapping turtles, a natural warrior, although only one meter five tall, is an out-and-out dwarf among humans, but their strength is amazing, and once they fight, they are all fearless to death, and their intelligence is generally about ten years old, and the hard shell gives them natural protection, just pay attention to the enemy in front of them.
Half an hour later, both the open and the dark sentry were secretly solved by the snapping turtle warriors, until an officer on the night watch, who did not see a patrol returning, realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly sent a personal guard to check the situation, and woke up 3,000 heavy infantry to wait for the battle.
A few minutes after the "enemy attack !!", a guard with a broken arm ran over in a panic, and suddenly, his head was directly cut off by a scimitar, and blood sprayed out, gurgling and flowing.
Woo~~
The muffled sound of sirens sounded throughout the barracks, and all the soldiers got up in panic and began to assemble in an orderly manner, rushing to the gate wall of the camp.
More than 200 snapping turtle warriors roared and rushed forward, their strength was infinite, and the heavy scimitar slashed slightly, directly cutting off the soldiers in front of them, and all the internal organs, bones, and intestines flowed out.
Poof!
More than ten officers who cultivated their fighting spirit were smashed by countless scimitars, and the gate of the camp fell instantly, and in front, a black and oppressive cavalry began to charge, which was the heavy cavalry that the whole continent trembled!
"Kill!!" The heavy cavalry of the Aberon Empire rushed like a torrent of steel, this country has many plains, mountains, and grasslands full of horses, and the Ebelon nation also has a natural wolf nature, belonging to a half-farming and half-farming and pastoral-pastoral.
The enemy's Iron-Horned Rhino Legion and Iron-backed Dragon Army also dispatched, and the rumbling sound was endless, like the soul lock of death, lingering on the head of every soldier and officer.
Roar!!
An iron-horned rhinoceros rushed out from the side, and the purple-veined demon bear on the back of the iron-horned rhinoceros let out a terrible howling sound, waved its mace, and directly threw away the two heavy cavalrymen, falling heavily and breaking its spine.
Li Jun's army of demonic beasts also dispatched, and tens of thousands of Iron Bear Legions directly broke away the enemy's heavy cavalry charging formation, like moving hills, blocking the gate of the camp.
"Quick! Fight off that group of snapping turtle warriors!" Otto shouted, and one after another magic bed crossbows fired, and the crossbow arrows branded with magic inscriptions nailed one snapping turtle warrior after another to the cold sand, the tortoise shell as hard as steel, in front of the weapons made by human civilization, so vulnerable.
A hundred soldiers were fully armed, riding iron-backed dragons, and the enemy's iron-backed dragons started a face-to-face battle.
With the help of Gu Daofu, a dwarven alchemy and forging master, Modu's weapons and armor have made a qualitative leap, plus some magic inscriptions, which have imprinted magic inscriptions on the armor of the Warcraft, and the movements are as fast as the wind, the offensive is fierce as fire, and the destructive power is like divine thunder.
Although the snapping turtle warrior is a dwarf in stature, it has terrifying strength, although he carries a heavy turtle shell, but his speed is not slow at all, and the flicker of the scimitar in his hand can make his own soldiers disembowel, except for powerful attack weapons such as the magic bed crossbow, ordinary soldiers are no match for them at all.
Rumble!
In front of Li Jun's Iron Bear Legion, the concept of the Abbyron Empire's Iron Horned Rhino + Human Knight's Legion is completely in an overwhelming situation, and a huge mace can easily smash the body of a human knight, and the Iron Horned Rhino that has evolved to the fourth stage is not comparable to the opponent's third-stage Iron Horned Rhino.
"Who will kill him for me?" the Supreme Commander's pupils shrank slightly, pointing at Li Jun's back, and shouted.
"I'll go!" a mighty general roared away with a crossbow in hand and a golden lion tiger.
Qiang!!
A bolt of gunlight swept in, and Li Jun released an earth shield without care, and then 72 times the gravity stretched out, crushing the general alive.
After mastering the origin of the earth, the power of the surrounding earth elements was all subject to Li Jun's mobilization, which was quite a bit of a realm.
"The other party has definitely broken through to the realm of the Earth Martial Sword Master!And it is a very powerful kind, otherwise, it is impossible for Shifany to be killed by the other party in one face!" said a general in horror.
......
Li Jun silently observed the battle situation, and then glanced at the group of snapping turtle warriors again, and his eyes suddenly showed a look of interest.
The race of snapping turtle warriors, Li Jun has read from the "Compendium of Warcraft", the intelligence is neither high nor low, and like the elves and ogres, they are very hateful to humans, and it stands to reason that it is impossible to fight side by side with humans, or help humans fight.
Li Jun patted Da Niu Niu's body, and the latter comprehended, and brutally charged away four or five heavy cavalry and came to a wounded snapping turtle warrior.
Bang!
Da Niu Niu trampled the snapping turtle warrior under the cow's hooves with a ferocious face, looked at it with violent eyes, and snorted at it a few times in warning.
"Surrender to my ......" had a bewildering voice, resounding in the ears of the snapping turtle warrior, Li Jun recited the sacrificial language, and emotions such as depression, fear, and anxiety filled its heart.
In a trance, its mind was lost, and a drop of essence blood pressed against the head of the snapping turtle warrior with unmistakable accuracy.
Airplanes~~
There was a buzzing sound, and the injured snapping turtle warrior was accepted into the summoning space by Li Jun.
Li Jun closed his eyes, and after a while, his eyelashes blinked lightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"So that's ......," Li Jun muttered softly.
According to the memories of this snapping turtle warrior, they have been secretly cultivated by the Alberon Empire since they were children, refining their physique, learning skills such as killing people and sneak attacks.
They are not free, they are slaves, and they have never seen their parents in their lifetime.
The snapping turtle warriors were once a powerful fighting race in the Canaan continent, and at their peak, they occupied a large area of rich land with a population of tens of millions.
But since the invasion of light, when humans were dominant, they did not treat every race as gently as orcs, but exterminated them all, seized every inch of land, and forced all races except the human race into the primeval forest.
The glory of the snapping turtle warriors has also declined, the population has plummeted, and the remaining tribesmen have gone into hiding in the primeval forest.
As one of the four major empires of the continent, the Alberon Empire has a strong national strength and countless soldiers, and with the current snapping turtle warrior race, it is impossible to compete with the will of the Alberon Empire, and most of the snapping turtle warrior race inhabiting the Alberon Mountains has been captured by the Aberron Empire and cultivated as a secret weapon.
Happy Dragon Boat Festival!!
