Chapter Thirty-Six: Su Nuo Strikes
The army of eternal winter retreated, but the army of the undead was still wreaking havoc, Zhang Yilin, who had destroyed the great array of the undead, continued to stay in Winter City, and the army of Suno had come to the edge of the Monster Forest. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the defenders of Border City continued to send teams to interfere, due to the existence of saint-level powerhouses in the opposing army, many of the sent teams failed to come back.
The demonic beasts of the forest stay in their lairs in winter, which also means that the Suno army does not have to worry about the attack of the demonic beasts after entering the forest.
After receiving the Holy Gold grant this time, Su Nuo's ambition was fully revealed, and the loss of the Eternal Winter Line, the ravaging of monster armies and undead made other countries unable to take care of this remote place.
However, Lawrence knew that although Suno was remote and had not been affected for a while, the appearance of the undead indicated that Suno's army must be defeated quickly, otherwise the consequences of the undead affecting Suno would be unimaginable.
"The army speeds up its march!"
A red-robed old man in Suno's army shouted at the marching procession, he was the high priest of Suno, who had stumbled Roger everywhere before, and Lawrence did not blame him for the defeat last time, but appointed him as the commander-in-chief this time, and Roger was only his subordinate.
"General Roger, the army is about to enter the Warcraft Forest, what do you think we should do next, I would like to hear your opinion. ”
The high priest held his head high and did not look at Roger.
"I think the army is divided into two ways, one way to stay in the forest, no matter what happens inside, there is a way back, and the rest can be carried out step by step until we find what we want. ”
Roger has understood since the last time he suffered a loss, the opponent in this forest will definitely not be so simple, even if the army is overwhelmed this time, he must consider the back road and make a foolproof strategy.
"Roger, Roger, you said that you are a great general who is so afraid of death, our 500,000 army plus the invited saint-level powerhouses, what is in it that we can't destroy? ”
The High Priest seized the opportunity to mock Roger, wanting to hear that Roger's suggestion was false, and picking bones in eggs was the goal, let alone adopting his strategy of dividing the army.
"By the way, you will call me the commander-in-chief in the future, forget it this time, don't take it as an example, hahaha. ”
Roger grabbed the reins of his horse and watched the high priest's back in the distance.
"General! Look at this high priest who is bullying! How could His Majesty choose him to be the commander-in-chief!"
Roger's adjutant stepped forward and complained, he couldn't understand why His Majesty would make this decision, even if it was much better to have an ordinary officer in command.
"Your Majesty naturally has his intentions, and he is not allowed to question His Majesty's decision in the future!
Roger scolded the adjutant on the side, and the adjutant had to nod helplessly and said that he understood.
"By the way, you will transfer our battalions to the end of the team later, and then garrison them at the edge of the Warcraft Forest. ”
Roger whispered that there were more than 30,000 people in each battalion under him, and he needed to be careful when leaving the team, but fortunately, the other battalions at the end were Roger's former subordinates, and it was not a big problem to arrange tens of thousands of people to leave the team.
The adjutant who received the order asked why, and Roger just smiled and told the adjutant that it was His Majesty's will.
The adjutant was also stunned, since His Majesty meant why he wanted to be a thief, but just now Roger taught him not to question His Majesty, although the adjutant was full of doubts, but immediately left to carry out the order.
"Everyone, pay attention! Kill all targets you can see when you enter the inside, and you must destroy the enemy in this operation!"
The High Priest shouted, then glanced at Roger behind him, the corners of his mouth curled slightly and let out a cold snort, and then the army began to enter the Warcraft Forest.
The advantage of 500,000 people cannot be used well in dense forests, and even then it will not affect their combat effectiveness.
The border city has already recalled all the people outside, and the stone crossbows can be seen everywhere on the city walls, and the soldiers are divided into small combat units in threes and threes, all waiting for the other party to arrive.
"Woo~!woo~!"
A few days later, there was a trumpet sound from the sentry post in the border city, and two sounds were enemy attacks indicating that the Suno army had come, and the Suno army stopped a few kilometers apart, and all kinds of siege equipment were assembled and began to move forward.
The High Priest was shocked when he saw the Border City, how long has it been? At that time, the dilapidated small village had actually turned into a city, and the other party actually had such a great amount of energy, you must know that this is the Demon Beast Forest.
However, the high priest can't control so much, he has an army of 500,000 in hand, even if the city wall is a few feet high, it doesn't matter, and he doesn't worry about what tricks the other party plays in front of his absolute strength.
"Send the vanguard to test their city defenses!Tell General Roger to get his battalion to go. ”
The High Priest obviously wanted to declare his personal vendetta, but several waves of heralds were sent to find each other, and even Roger's direct battalion headquarters was gone.
The high priest was so angry that he almost vomited blood and vowed to capture Roger and send him back to the imperial capital for defection.
However, Roger and his battalion headquarters are gone, but his old headquarters is still there, and he directly pulled those people as scapegoats.
20,000 horses and horses actually have an advantage over 5,000 defenders, but the other party has long known about their arrival, and there are traps all over the city, and these 20,000 people are actually just clearing the way for the army behind.
The soldiers who received the order were very angry, most of the 500,000 troops were mercenaries, and the high priest did not let the mercenaries go on but consumed Su Nuo's own soldiers.
But when the military order was issued, everyone did not disobey, so they had to bite the bullet.
"Charge the whole army!"
With an order, 20,000 people began to storm the border city, due to the convenience of construction and future expansion of the city, the trees around the border city were cut down, and Su Nuo's army rushed straight over.
The traps dug in advance in the border city were all covered, and it was difficult to find them if they didn't step on them, and many soldiers fell for it in an instant.
These traps are actually small round pits twenty centimeters wide and thirty centimeters deep, and a few sharpened wooden thorns are inserted into each pit, and people generally will not die if they step on them, but will only lose their combat effectiveness.
This kind of trap is easy to cover up and easier to make, so there are such round pits all over the outside of the border city, and of course some of the more powerful officers can control the air, but they are targeted by several giant crossbows as soon as they try to fly to the wall.
"Boom~!boom~!"
The number of officers was small, and soon several of them who approached the city wall were shot, and the thick crossbow arrows pierced their bodies directly, and the blood and internal organs were scattered all over the ground, and some soldiers who managed to run under the city wall were also hit by the high wall stones, and their brains were broken.
The charge of 20,000 men cleared a trap on a road, and the high priest seized the opportunity to advance the army along a safe road.
A large number of siege engines entered the attackable range, and the army of Suno with long-range support was given a chance to breathe.
The long-range equipment frantically smashed boulders and cannonballs into the city wall, and for a while some Suno soldiers even climbed the wall, but they were quickly cut down by the defenders above.
The High Priest didn't let the Saint-level powerhouse move, because the group of people who slaughtered the army had not yet appeared, and he decided to wait for the other party to appear before making a surprise attack.
