The Demon Legion breaks through the defense line of Taimur Snow Mountain!

It sounds terrifying, but in fact it is something that is bound to happen, but it is only a matter of time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The Taimur Snow Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, and is the dividing line between the Nine Heavens Continent and the Extreme North Continent and a natural barrier, although the Titan barbarians have operated on this defense line for hundreds of years, establishing more than a dozen fortresses, so that the demons have never been able to go south.

But this time the situation is different from the past, the demon clan that has accumulated thousands of years of strength is out of the nest, and the army strength is as high as one million, and the Taimur Snow Mountain is different from the God of War Mountain Range, its depth is only dozens of miles, and there are many dangerous peaks and mountains, but there are also many places for the army to break through, and the demon clan also has the magic crystal shuttle and a large number of elite air cavalry power.

This raid was also carefully prepared by the demons, they first sent air cavalry to harass various fortresses, and then concentrated the mage legion and the air legion, and launched an unprecedented crazy attack on the frost fortress at the western end of Taimur Snow Mountain.

The Frost Fortress is located in the westernmost part of the Temur Line, and due to its surroundings, it is also the smallest of the ten fortresses, with a maximum of less than 50,000 legions, and is the farthest from the main force of the Alliance Army.

The demons took a fancy to this weak point, gathered superior forces to launch a surprise attack, due to the huge difference in strength between the two sides, and when the alliance army got the news and urgently sent reinforcements, thousands of demons had already set foot on the frost fortress, and the tens of thousands of alliance troops stationed in the fortress were almost all killed, and only a few people stood out of the encirclement.

The Alliance's support corps attempted to recapture the fortress, but suffered heavy losses under the demons' blocking counterattack, and had to temporarily retreat to the nearby Rock Fortress, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

The demons did not take the opportunity to expand the results of the battle, but used the channel that had been opened to continuously mobilize the legions, and established a base camp in the grassland area south of the snowy mountains, obviously preparing to use this as a base to sweep the entire Titan Empire.

The northern part of the Nine Heavens Continent is facing an unprecedented crisis!

Icewind Fortress, Confederate General Staff Headquarters.

The huge military conference hall was crowded with people, staff officers of the headquarters, senior officers of various regiments, representatives of mages... Hundreds of people gathered around the huge sand table, all with grim expressions, filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere.

The arrival of Han Fei, Night Invincible and the others did not ease this atmosphere a little, and the Titan Emperor Sauron, who served as the supreme commander, just nodded at them and said hello, and his gaze fell back on the sand table.

His Majesty the Emperor looked like a sleepy beast, his face was unshaven, and his expression was slightly haggard, but his red eyes shone with a terrifying light, showing his inner unpeace.

After receiving the news, Han Fei arrived at the Spark first through the ultra-long-distance teleportation array, and then rode the air horse to the Ice Wind Fortress as fast as possible, and he was accompanied by forty-seven god-level powerhouses, including Night Invincible and Night Ice Spirit, which was almost half of the strength of the Terran God Arbitration Panel.

It is worth mentioning that Princess Splendid also came to Spark with her, which means that since Han Fei's four wives are all in Titan, there is no reason for her, as Han Fei's fiancée, to stay in the safe Shengjing.

Although everyone objected, they couldn't resist this princess with a soft surname and a strong heart, and Emperor Yeshi could only send a few more royal knights to protect him.

Of course, after arriving at Spark, Han Fei arranged for her to be in Vivien's mansion, and he didn't bother to say a few more words to his wife and lovers, so he hurriedly left for the Icewind Fortress, just in time for the emergency military meeting held by Sauron.

"According to the information obtained by the scouts so far, more than 100,000 demon troops have entered the Frost Fortress and the base camp established on the grassland, and they are now building a defensive line..."Sauron pointed to the sand table and said in a deep voice, his voice was a little hoarse: "The most troublesome thing is that they are very likely to have built a giant demon nest!"

The Devil's Nest is a product of magic, and its original source is a magical creature of the Abyssal World, which is the most terrifying war matrix of the Demon Race.

The volume of a giant magic nest can reach several miles, as long as it has enough energy, it can continuously create demon puppet soldiers, demon puppet soldiers are strong and intellectually low, as long as they are slightly armed, they are a warrior, they are not afraid of death when fighting, they are the best auxiliary force for the demons to wage war, and they are the cannon fodder troops that charge at the forefront.

The Giant Demon Nest has a special defensive barrier, and the poisonous miasma it emits can cover the airspace for tens of miles, which makes it have a strong vitality and it is very difficult to destroy it.

Thousands of years ago, when the underground demon clan first came to the Nine Heavens Continent, it was with the millions of demon puppets created by hundreds of demon nests that they destroyed the continental civilization of the ancient era and began the dark age of the demon race ruling the earth.

Although the current Extreme North Demon Clan is far less powerful than thousands of years ago, and it is impossible to build a large number of Demon Nests, the existence of such a giant Demon Nest will undoubtedly have an impact on the next war.

After the giant magic nest takes root on the ground, it will continue to extend its tentacles in all directions, and eventually it may cause a radius of hundreds of miles to become a dead land, and even if the magic nest is destroyed in the future, this effect will take hundreds of years to recover.

This is the source of Sauron's worry and anger, because the land under his feet is the home of the Titan barbarians, if the demons expand and build one demon nest after another, then even if they win this battlefield in the end, the barbarians' living space will suffer extremely heavy losses.

"We absolutely can't tolerate the continued development of this demon nest..."Sauron slammed his fist on the table, and his voice was a little more stern than ever: "For this reason, I have formulated a plan to attack, preparing to attack the base camp of the demon clan in one fell swoop, or at least destroy the demon nest!"

Sauron's plan is not complicated, in addition to the fortress of the Taimur Snow Mountain, the Alliance Army has stationed more than half a million main legions on the grasslands around the Ice Wind Fortress to Spark, and after the disappearance of the Frost Fortress, except for an army that went to support first, most of the main forces are rising to the western grasslands, preparing for a decisive battle with the demons.

However, due to the long distance, by the time the main force of the alliance army is assembled and the attack is completed, I am afraid that the demons will already be fully prepared, and they will not be greeted by a mere 100,000 troops, but a million demon army plus a large number of demon puppet soldiers.

Therefore, Sauron decided to draw most of the troops from the five fortresses connected to the Taimur Snow Mountain, form a legion to attack, and at the same time use the most elite raiding force to sneak up on the hive from behind, so as to disrupt the deployment of the demons and annihilate the enemy's living forces as much as possible, so as to buy time for the arrival of the main army.

Of course, there is also a great risk in this plan, these five fortresses are equivalent to being abandoned, once the demons perceive and launch an attack, half of the defense line of Taimur Snow Mountain will definitely collapse completely.

But now that the demons have broken through the defense line and broken into the northern prairie, these five fortresses are also facing the danger of being attacked on their backs, so it is better to gather troops to fight than to disperse their forces to defend.

Under the control of the mages, there were earth-shaking changes on the huge sand table, on the one hand, the power of the demons increased, on the other hand, the legions of the alliance army quickly assembled and attacked, and when the two sides fought fiercely, a raid team suddenly broke through the defense line of the demons and launched an attack on the demon nest... Judging from the process and results of the sand table deduction, Sauron's plan is completely feasible and the best strategy to deal with the current battle situation.

Of course, the key raid team must be composed of high-level powerhouses, because the poisonous miasma and defensive enchantment of the giant magic nest are not so easy to break through, plus the demon defense power around the magic nest, ordinary air cavalry can only harass nearby at most, and does not have the ability to break through at all.

Fortunately, the reinforcements led by Han Fei and Night Invincible arrived in time, which greatly enhanced the high-level strength of the Alliance Army, and it was not a problem to form a raid team composed entirely of god-level powerhouses.

"Agreed!" a staff commander of the orcs was the first to raise his arm.

"Agreed!" "Agreed!"... Staff officers from all tribes raised their arms in agreement, which meant that Sauron's plan had been approved by the staff headquarters, and at the same time, Sauron had been given the highest authority to command.

Everyone knows that in the current situation, the coalition forces can only fight together against a strong enemy, and now every minute and every second is precious, and a moment of delay means that the enemy's strength will be increased by a minute, and there is no time to delay.

"Good!"

Seeing that all the staff officers had chosen to agree, Sauron's expression was greatly excited, and he looked around at the crowd and said loudly, "Now I announce..."

Woo!

The sudden sound of a horn interrupted Sauron's words, and a fierce glint suddenly flashed in his lion eyes: "This damn demon clan is coming to disturb again, it's really endless!"

Although the demons broke through the Frost Fortress and opened the passage for the invasion, their attacks on the other fortresses on the front line of the Taimur Snow Mountain not only did not stop, but intensified.

The intention of the demons is very obvious, they want to use this way of harassment to drag down the defense forces of various fortresses, so as to delay time for themselves.

The demons who came to attack were all air power, with a few magic crystal shuttles as the core and hundreds of elite air horsemen as the main force, using guerrilla tactics that hit and ran away, so that the various fortresses were overwhelmed.

As the largest fortress in the Snow Mountain defense line, the Ice Wind Fortress has undoubtedly suffered the most attacks and frequencies, although the demon legions are less than the alliance army in terms of total number, but their air power is stronger than the alliance army, which makes them have enough strength to carry out raids.

"I'll go out and have a look!" Han Fei immediately left the military chamber.
