Chapter 191: Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Country

After another ten minutes, the more than 1,000 soldiers finally succeeded in climbing the wall of Eagle Cliff Fort, which was crumbling by artillery, and there was not a single defender in sight, only some mutilated corpses, many of which had been charred, exuding an enticing smell of barbecue.

After cleaning the corpses from those roads, the soldiers divided their troops into two routes, attacking the city walls from the left and right sides.

As soon as they reached the top of the staircase, they were met by the defenders, and a large number of arrows and crossbows were fired at them.

Fortunately, these attacking soldiers had long expected resistance, so the few soldiers who walked in the front carried large shields and blocked most of the arrows that were fired.

Then grenades were thrown from behind their shields and rolled down the stairs towards the still stubborn defenders.

After a series of explosions, the defenders were immediately killed and wounded, and the formation inevitably dispersed.

Seeing this, the attacking soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire took the opportunity to rush forward, drew their swords and started a white-knuckle battle with these defenders, never giving the other party a chance to release their arrows.

Relying on sharper weapons and stronger armor, the melee ability of the soldiers of the Green Dragon Empire is also stronger than that of these defenders of the Golden Eagle Empire.

"Damn, I can't stand it! General, withdraw! "A centurion of the Golden Eagle Empire, after leading his own troops who had lost most of their troops from the front line, suggested to the defenders of Eagle Cliff Fort.

"But we haven't been able to hold out for even a day! It's a pity to give up such a fortress with such dangerous terrain as Eagle Cliff Fort! In the face of the persuasion of his subordinates, the defender was still a little hesitant.

After all, the Eagle Cliff Fort where they are located can be said to be one of the most dangerous basic passes on the border, but they still haven't defended it for even a day, so wouldn't those defense lines be even more vulnerable after that.

At that time, it may be too late for your side to continue to rearrange more defensive lines in the rear! As long as the Blue Dragon Empire marches fast enough, after breaking these pre-laid defense lines, it can completely drive straight in!

Although he was very unwilling to give up Eagle Cliff Fort, but watching his soldiers continue to fall, the defender of Eagle Cliff Castle also understood that if he continued to stay and resist, it would not be able to resist the enemy for long, but would kill all the thousands of elite soldiers on hand, and Adams might have to hold him accountable at that time. So in the end, he could only sigh and give the order to retreat.

When the defenders heard the order to retreat, they immediately turned and fled towards the castle, even if there were enemies behind them who were constantly slashing and killing their comrades.

He fled so decisively and quickly that the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire who were originally fighting with him couldn't react for a while.

After the defenders retreated to the interior of the castle, they quickly withdrew from the Eagle Cliff Fort under the command of the officers through a tunnel that had been dug long ago.

By the time the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire invaded the castle and discovered the entrances to these tunnels, most of the defenders had already slipped away through the tunnels, and only some of the strong men who had been temporarily captured in the palace were still resisting in the castle.

And those strong men soon realized that they had been abandoned, so after more and more soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire poured into the castle, they quickly abandoned their weapons and stopped resisting.

Gongsun Lie, who was nervously waiting outside the city for news of the attacking troops, soon learned the news that Eagle Cliff Fort had been successfully occupied.

He was very surprised by this, after all, the terrain of this Eagle Cliff Fort was so dangerous, and there were thousands of elite defenders in the castle, how could it be easily taken down under the first wave of tentative attacks!

It wasn't until he took a detailed look at the battle report sent back by the front-line officers that he realized that the enemy had taken the initiative to abandon Eagle Cliff Fort and sneaked away through the tunnel with most of the soldiers.

This immediately made Gongsun Lie have a depressed feeling of punching the cotton, you must know that for this battle, he had prepared for several days in advance, and then after arriving at the Eagle Cliff Fort, it took most of the time to establish an artillery position, but in the end, he had not yet contributed, and those defenders took the initiative to retreat.

And the more than 1,000 soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire who had successfully occupied Eagle Cliff Fort had sent a team at this time, wanting to pursue them along the tunnel again to see if they could catch up with some enemy troops who were running slowly.

It turned out that after the defenders of the Golden Eagle Empire left Eagle Cliff Fort through the tunnel, they actually left a lot of explosives in the tunnel, completely blowing up and blocking the other end of the tunnel.

Therefore, those soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire who went to pursue were almost buried alive by the dirt and rubble that fell during the explosion.

When this happened, the officer at the head did not dare to continue to send people to pursue, but led his troops to guard the entrance of this tunnel, lest the other party take advantage of this tunnel to kill another carbine.

After that, Gongsun Lie and his army also quickly entered the Eagle Cliff Fort, completely eliminating the possibility of the other party retaking the castle.

If it was before, Gongsun Lie might have continued to lead the army to attack, but after a period of experience, he was much calmer, and after capturing Eagle Cliff Fort, he did not continue to attack, but first let the troops stop, while sending a good report to the rear to successfully occupy Eagle Cliff Fort, and at the same time let Guo Dafu, the emperor, help analyze what tricks the Golden Eagle Empire is playing this time.

As a result, Guo Dafu's side quickly sent an order, so that Gongsun Lie could rest assured and boldly continue to attack.

Because Guo Dafu had just learned from Da Er that the Golden Eagle Empire had laid several lines of defense on the border, in order to rely on these lines of defense to delay the offensive speed of his army.

I have to say that although the other party's trick is not very clever, it is very effective, and even Guo Dafu does not have a very good way to crack it.

It just so happened that he had already occupied a large area of the territory of the Hanhai Empire during this time, and he was a little indigestion, and he continued to occupy the territory of the Golden Eagle Empire, and he didn't have enough troops and officials to garrison and manage it!

He even planned to transfer back those elite field troops after a while and start all his vacation. After all, Jean is not a machine, and the previous series of battles have also made the soldiers very tired, so continue to repair well.

However, those undead soldiers are completely tired, so they can be replaced by attacking, and no matter how many more lines of defense are arranged by the defenders of the Golden Eagle Empire, these undead soldiers who never know what to do can slowly destroy them all.

And just when Guo Dafu replaced the front-line troops with the undead army little by little, Shen Dajie finally ushered in the day of salary, escorted by Bai Wuer and a group of militiamen, Shen Dajie successfully arrived in Sanqiao Town, where their primary school teachers received their salaries, in the center of the town in a middle school campus that had not yet been completely completed.

Compared with a month ago, Shen Dajie has a lot of tan, but his body is also a lot stronger, after a month of hard training, he now has the acquired fourfold cultivation, and he will no longer be able to beat his own students.

In the process of queuing up to receive his salary, Shen Dajie also met many compatriots from Aolanxing, these people are very different from the natives of the Xuangu Continent in temperament, so they are easy to recognize.

Although he didn't know these compatriots, Shen Dajie still greeted them warmly, after all, after the great change in Oranxing, they were still able to meet in this other world, which can be said to be a lot of fate.

After queuing for a few minutes, it was finally Shen Dajie's turn to receive his salary, but when he stepped forward, Shen Dajie found that there was actually a person he knew in the group of people who were responsible for paying wages.

This person's name is Wang Dayong, he used to be his neighbor when he was in his hometown, and the two can be said to have grown up together since childhood, and the relationship is very good! But later, Shen Dajie and his family moved into the city for the convenience of part-time work, and the two families cut off contact, but they didn't expect to meet here.

Since the two have only been separated for three or four years, each other's appearance has not changed much, so they recognize each other as soon as they meet.

However, since he is still working, Wang Dayong can't go to catch up with this friend immediately, so he can only ask Shen Dajie to wait for him first.

So after Shen Dajie received his salary, he first went to a noodle restaurant next to the school to ask for a bowl of noodles, and waited for his friends to finish while eating slowly.

After more than half an hour, Wang Dayong was finally busy, and after leaving the school gate, he looked at his friends who were waving to him in the noodle restaurant, and immediately ran over excitedly.

"Lao Shen, it's really good that you're not dead! I thought I'd never see you again in my life! ”

"Me too! Now it seems that God is not bad to us, and both of us survived! ”

When they met their old people in another country, they were very happy, and after sitting down, Wang Dayong told Shen Dajie about the situation of his family.

It turned out that Wang Dayong actually came to this Xuangu Continent earlier than Shen Dajie, and their family was the first batch of Orlan Star survivors who were incorporated by Guo Dafu.

At first, because his parents did not dare to take risks, they did not follow other villagers to work in the city, and stayed in the village to farm, which allowed them to escape.

During the first round of forbidden spell bombardment of the demons, their family was in the countryside, but no one died, and later, at the suggestion of a group of passing refugees, they went to Guo Dafu's training base in Oranxing, and became the first batch of survivors to settle there.

Later, Wang Dayong's father, because of his rich farming experience, was also hired as an agricultural expert, and was hired by Guo Dafu to this Xuangu Continent with a high salary to guide those natives to farm, and his monthly salary was 500 silver coins! That's five times as much as Shen Dajie, a primary school teacher.

Then Wang Dayong's father, Wang Jianguo, got his son and wife over from the relationship, and entered the logistics department, which is full of oil and water, and does not really need to go to the front line.

Knowing that his friend's family is all right, and now they are all doing well, Shen Dajie is naturally happy for his friend, in comparison, his luck is not as good as the other party, his parents were all killed by the demon's forbidden spell, and he has almost died several times, and he has been bruised all over his body, if it weren't for the gamble some time ago, he came to the Blue Dragon Empire to apply for this elementary school teacher, and now I'm afraid he is still messing around in the Orlan Star like other survivors!
