1323. Battle of Lake Rune
When the lords of the White Forest Plane returned to Wilkes City, the spring of the White Forest Plane had quietly arrived, the warm wind from the southwest blew the ice and snow, and clusters of new green appeared on the vast grassland, the farther away the greener it became, and the new green would disappear silently after entering......
The construction of the dam continued on the upstream side of the camp, and although the melting snow and ice collected into a river, the amount of water in the river increased dramatically, but this did not affect the craftsmen who built the dam.
The three main rivers on the Three Rivers Plain, the Eisen River, the Buruin River, and the Anduin River, have been cut off one after another.
The main force of the Surdak lord's army officially entered the southern part of the Three Rivers Plain with a large number of ordnance, close to the shore of Lake Lune on the Thousand Islands Lake.
Lake Lune is not connected to Qiandao Lake, although the two are only separated by a wetland, but the two are completely independent water systems, and only when the rain is so heavy that the entire wetland can be submerged, will the Lune Lake and Qiandao Lake be connected.
Spring is also the dry season for the White Forest Plane, and as the three rivers have dried up, the lakes of Lune are gradually revealing large areas of lakeside tidal flats in the southwesterly winds.
The silt at the bottom of the lake began to crack in large chunks under the sun, and Lake Rune continued to shrink every day.
As a result, the area of activity of the red-ridged giant tortoises hiding at the bottom of the lake is also rapidly decreasing, and their mountain-like bodies are like islands in the lake.
For so many years, the Red-Ridged Giant Tortoise has dominated Lake Lune and the surrounding rivers, and they are the masters of the rivers and lakes here.
However, as the lord army gradually occupied the surrounding rivers, they drove all the red-ridged giant tortoises in the nearby basin into this Lake Rune, and then Surdak used a large number of migrant workers to divert the three rivers, completely cutting off the connection between the Eisen, Bruin, Anduin and Lake Rune.
Not only did a large number of migrant workers from the surrounding towns participate in the excavation of the new river, but even the newly enslaved ghost worker ants are pouring into the new river.
The diverted river water will flow along the wetland into Qiandao Lake.
If you cut off the water from Lake Rune, the lake will quickly dry up.
The infantry warriors of the Surdak Lord's Army would march every day in the heart of Lake Rune, and dozens of red-ridged giant tortoises were almost trapped in the middle of the lake, and after the lake dried up, the arched shells of these giant turtles that looked like small islands were exposed to the surface of the lake.
Although there were a large number of troops around the lake, these red-ridged giant tortoises trapped in the middle of the lake also found that if they did not break out as soon as possible, once the lake dried up, it would become a dead land, and even if Xiang left, I am afraid that it would not be possible.
On an evening in mid-March, nearly 50 or so red-ridged giant tortoises were like small islands moving in the lake, their backs were covered with silt, and some aquatic plants were hung, and they crawled out of the middle of the lake step by step, dragging out deep ravines in the silt by the lake, and these red-ridged giant tortoises were like small two-story western-style buildings that could be moved, and their backs were thick tortoise shells.
Just as the red-ridged giant turtles rushed into the mud by the lake, the lord army guarding the shore of the lake pushed the prepared bed crossbows from the rear to the high post by the lake.
As soon as the first Redridge Giant Tortoise came within range of the bed crossbow, the commander of the Collins Family Lords gave the order to shoot, and twelve improvised ballistas buzzed with a roar.
The bed crossbow operators quickly turned the turntable, and the crossbow strings of the crossbow carts on the shore quickly tensed, and the crossbow strings creaked and cracked as they continued to accumulate.
With the commanders' orders, giant crossbow arrows flew through the air towards the Red Ridge Giant Tortoise.
The red-ridged giant tortoise that was walking in front sensed that the crisis was approaching, and hurriedly retracted its head into the turtle shell, and then a water element shield appeared outside the turtle shell, like a glass bowl that was buckled upside down.
The giant crossbow bolts hit those water elemental shields, and suddenly the glazed halo dispersed, canceling out the momentum of the giant crossbows.
Three giant crossbow arrows shot at the front of the red-ridged giant turtle in succession, and only then did they shoot through the water elemental shield outside the turtle's shell.
Then the giant crossbow arrows shot again at the exposed thick tortoise shell, and those red-ridged giant tortoises made a dull sound, and then stretched out the head covered with scales, and a magic circle appeared on the entire turtle's back, with the help of the power of the circle, countless water elements converged from around its body, and a huge water bomb condensed in front of the red-ridged giant tortoise.
Waiting for more than 30 water bombs to condense one after another, each of them is very large.
These balls of light smashed into the cavalry camp of the lord army with a violent whistling sound, and a group of warriors with heavy tower shields rushed to the front of the cavalry, forming a shield wall with the shield in their hands, but unfortunately, with the giant water balls roaring, the shield warriors in these lord armies did not have time to deal with it with all their strength, and were hit by a group of giant turtles spit out water bombs.
The scene immediately became chaotic, and the shield warriors in front of them were swept away by a huge water ball.
As soon as the lord's army engaged the Red Ridge Giant Turtle, they were smashed on their backs by these concentrated water bombs.
At this moment, a roaring giant crossbow arrow pierced through the skull of the giant *** that rushed to the front, and the red-ridged giant turtle didn't even let out a scream, and the blood on its body gushed out frantically.
But the other red-ridged giant tortoises walked closer to the lake......
The water balls that spat out their mouths caused huge casualties to the soldiers of the lord army, and although they were supported by the armed thunder rhinos of Samira, it was still inevitable that the soldiers in the front row would be killed by the water balloons.
Then Samiratu took out a giant magic crossbow arrow, and the sound of a winch turning was heard around again.
As the lord army gathered again into a shield wall, the red-ridged giant turtle roared into the sky again, and then the magic pattern circle was formed under the feet of these red-ridged giant turtles, and the back of the turtle behind them also lit up with magic patterns, and these red-ridged giant turtles opened their mouths and sprayed out bunches of water cannons.
These cylindrical blisters swept the camp of the lord army into pieces, and with the order of Commander Collins, the other lord troops who could continue to fight took up their weapons and rushed down towards the red ridge giant tortoise.
The battle broke out, and the lord army, with its sophisticated magic bed crossbow and three second-turn powerhouses, formed a force to suppress these red-ridged giant tortoises.
In the battle, there were constantly heavy infantry falling, and there were also red-ridged giant tortoises in Samira and Karry. Decker and the two died together, and the battle lasted from dusk to noon the next day, and almost all of the more than 50 red-ridged giant turtles that broke through from the lake were left by the lord army by the lake, but the lord army also paid a considerable price for this, and the number of casualties directly exceeded 1,000.
At the end of the battle, more than 50 red-ridged giant tortoises were killed, and the farthest red-ridged giant tortoise crawled out of Lake Lune, nearly a kilometer away from the shore of the lake.
The lord army began to clean up the battlefield and sort out the spoils of the battlefield......
