Chapter 57 Invitation to Fight
After looking at the terrain on both sides of the strait, Richard led his followers back to the place where the two sides confronted each other, the Continental Bridge. The so-called Continental Bridge is actually an area in the middle of the Divine Cry Rift. The bottom of the rift valley rises abruptly, less than 100 meters from both sides, and there is a gentle slope, looking down on it, it looks like a giant bridge over the rift valley is a kilometer wide.
In the old days, it was the only route between the north and the south, hence the name "Continental Bridge".
On this continental bridge, which is several kilometers long and about kilometers wide, the two sides fought fiercely, and every inch of land was repeatedly watered with blood.
Gordon was often on the verge of making breakthroughs, but was always held back by the native warriors of Hulan with their flesh and blood. In the end, Gordon exhausted his vital strength and had to stay on the 57th Invitation Battle of the Continental Bridge. Since then, the two sides have confronted each other across the bridge, and both have built dense defensive lines, and the two ends of the mainland bridge have become fortresses.
After many years, in order to consolidate the defensive line, the two sides continued to move the fortifications forward until they were thousands of kilometers away from each other. The kilometer in the middle has long been a death zone, and I don't know how many warriors have fallen here, and their blood has stained the ground dark brown.
Richard stood at the highest point of the fortress, looking at the top of the tower, looking at each other with his eyes on the other side. From this point of view, the first half of the Huland fortifications can be seen clearly, and it can indeed be said to be impregnable. In a small area, thousands of defensive warriors are stacked, and the fortifications are obviously specially designed to defend against magic, and are quite resistant to the large area of magic of the archmage. The Hulans were clever and cautious, and they built another wall on the opposite high ground. This wall not only blocked Richard's view, but even if Richard waved his army to capture all the fortifications in the front area, he would only attack under this wall, and he would face a difficult siege battle.
After looking at the defensive layout of both sides, Richard already knew it. He walked into the command castle, and at this time, a precise magic map had been set up in the battle hall, and several mages were constantly entering the latest numbers into the map, so the terrain of the Hulan Continental Bridge became more precise and clear little by little. This magic map is extremely accurate, detachable, and can be carried with the army, and it is also the best of its kind in the Dragon's Blood Gnome, and each Norland giant must have at least one or two to show his military professionalism.
Such a thing, although it is only a product made in batches, also costs hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and Gordon naturally couldn't afford to use it in the past.
Richard stood in front of the magic map, silent in thought. At this time, Oral walked in and reported that the reorganization of the army had been completed. While Richard was surveying the terrain, Oral stayed in the Continental Bridge Fortress to reorganize his army. He had been with Richard for a long time and knew how to reorganize it to suit Richard's wishes.
Richard nodded, called Semia into the war room, stretched out his hand and pointed at the forward position of the fortress, and said, "The heavy 1st and 2nd Corps move forward and enter the attack position." The light infantry followed, and the garrison of the fortress also entered the position. Tomorrow before dusk, all the scheduling will be completed. ”
Semia was slightly taken aback and asked, "You want to attack the city?"
Richard shook his head and said, "No! ”
"Wait for the Hulan to call?" Semir was even more surprised.
"If they don't come, then we'll call them. You'll know when the time comes. Richard stretched out his hand on the magic map to move the flags representing several legions forward, which was equivalent to putting two-thirds of the troops in the fortress into the attack position. Obviously, this is going to be an all-out attack. However, this kind of attack is completely hard-hitting, and even if it breaks through the Hulan people's defense, the losses will inevitably be extremely heavy.
After arranging the troop movement, Richard picked up the knife box and put it behind his back, and said, "Let's go, let's go to the front line, and give the Hulan people a slap in the face first!"
Semir could be said to have followed Richard in confusion and walked to the front line of the fortress. Richard only took his followers and a group of warriors recruited locally by Hulan up to the city wall, looking at the opposite side. On the walls of the fortress of the Hulans, many richly dressed guys were coming up one after another, obviously alarmed by the movement of troops here. There are many strong men with strong force among the Hulan people, and there are many people who stare at Richard all the time, and their eyes are not good.
Richard smiled indifferently, turned his head to the ogre, and said, "Tiramisu, go and try what kind of strong people are among the Hulans!"
The ogre grinned and said, "Don't worry, boss, I promise to beat their out!"
"Learn less from them and read more!" Richard said helplessly.
"It's all me reading, and I only know how to eat it!" one of the ogres's heads immediately cried. And the other head of One-Eyed did not show weakness, and immediately retorted: "If I hadn't eaten desperately, we would have grown so big?"
"But the boss said that he wanted to read!"
"I've been reading that book for three months, isn't it still on that page?"
While the two heads were constantly tearing each other down, Tiramisu jumped directly from the fifteen-meter-high city wall, and when he landed, the earth trembled. He dragged his two-handed war hammer, draped in heavy armor so thick that people were speechless, took a big stride, walked directly to the center of the battle line between the two sides, and roared in Hulan in a thunderous voice: "My name is Tiramisu! Hulan's cowards, who would dare to come down and fight me to the death?"
The ogre's roar rolled away, rumbling away through the rift, bringing back countless echoes. For a while, it seemed that the heavens and the earth were full of ogres' roars!
Standing in the center of the continental bridge, the ogre's momentum was constantly rising, quickly breaking through the limit, and he could even see that there were two pillars of qi rising from the top of his two heads!
Tiramisu was the first of Richard's many followers to break through to the Sanctuary, and when the two-headed ogre broke through, it was not a warrior or an archmage, but more like a mixture of the two. The huge racial advantage allows ogres to crush almost all when they encounter ordinary human sanctuaries or archmagisers.
Seeing that no one from Hulan had ended, Tiramisu roared again: "Hulan's cowards, who dares to fight me to the death!?"
This was a blatant clamor and provocation, and the Hulan people were in a commotion again, and many of the warriors in the fortress showed a look of shame, and their morale was rapidly declining. Behind the Continental Bridge, there are indeed legendary powerhouses in the town, but the legendary powerhouses can't be dispatched lightly. Not to mention that Tiramisu is just a Sanctuary, and it is a shame to dispatch a legendary powerhouse to win. Even the legendary powerhouse is willing to pull down his face, and he doesn't dare to appear in the middle of the Continental Bridge. There are only two legendary powerhouses in the Hulan Continent, and one of them was seriously injured in the battle with Gordon and the knights, and almost lost his life, and his injuries have not healed to this day. The rest of this legendary powerhouse has become the only remaining pillar of the northern kingdom, and nothing can happen again.
When the ogre called for the third time, the Hulans finally couldn't take it anymore, and a burly man jumped from the wall and strode towards Tiramisu. He has a pale blue complexion of Hulan's natives, and is more than two and a half meters tall, which is extremely burly among normal people. But compared to Tiramisu, it was not enough for the ogre's chest. This big man carried an astonishingly huge two-handed giant sword, but judging from his footsteps, his speed was definitely not slow, and he was a strong man with both strength and agility.
Seeing that there was an opponent on the field, Tiramisu laughed a few times and retreated a long distance to make room for the big man.
The big man stepped into the battlefield, holding a sword in both hands, and his momentum rose spontaneously. He stared at Tiramisu and said awe-inspiringly, "Who are you? I am the ...... of the Hulan Empire."
Tiramisu waved his hand and interrupted the big man's words: "Don't waste time! If you don't die after the fight, it's not too late to say your name!"
The big man was so angry that his face twisted, he roared angrily, stepped forward, and the giant sword stabbed straight at Tiramisu's belly! But the sword blade was only halfway through, and the big man's feet suddenly slipped, and the whole person shifted ten meters strangely, and the place where the sword fell had shifted from the belly to the waist.
Tiramisu laughed, still staring in the direction where Dahan was originally located, and didn't seem to react at all. The big man was actually extremely fast, and the giant sword had already pierced Tiramisu's heavy armor in a flash! The ogre's armor instantly lit up with a layer of hazy cyan light, and the blade of the giant sword was immediately deflected. The big man was startled, and his fighting spirit surged, and the giant sword was not affected by the magic defense, and stabbed the ogre's waist ribs. The blade of the sword sank into the heavy armor, and immediately made a creaking sound, and every centimeter of progress seemed extremely difficult.
The defensive power of the ogre's heavy armor was obviously beyond his expectations, and such a defensive power was only available in a few sets of armor treasured by the royal family of the Hulan Empire! In the past, the strong men of the Gordon era were not even equipped with the Hulan people. Now he actually jumped out of an ogre, which is a quasi-legendary-level equipment!
And then unexpectedly, it wasn't just that. Tiramisu's body was beating with electric light, and his movements suddenly accelerated, and the giant hammer of his hands that was so big that it was chilling that it roared, and it instantly reached the top of the big man's head! The big man was terrified, and it was too late to dodge at this time, so he could only block the horizontal sword at the last moment.
The hammer and sword intersected, but there was no sound of gold and iron clashing, only a muffled thunderous roar, which was transmitted far away. The big man pounced, and he was already on his knees, and his knees sank to the ground. His arms were still able to support the greatsword, but the body of the greatsword was bending in a clear arc under the weight, and the sword body was full of light, which was a sign that the enchantment effect was constantly being destroyed. Obviously, this good-quality greatsword was smashed by Tiramisu with a hammer.
The ogre laughed loudly, waved his big hand lightly, and the giant hammer with a strong wind smashed on the big man, smashing him with a sword, flying straight for dozens of meters, before falling to the ground like a broken bag, and never moved again.
There was a dead silence among the Hulans.
