Volume II, Chapter 77

After a trumpet, a large number of feathered arrows from the Divine Alliance descended from the sky, and the target was the bow and arrow array of the 26th Legion.

The density of these selected bows and arrows even exceeded the bow and arrow attack of the Demon Alliance just now.

Because of the high-tossed flight curve, the feathered arrow unambiguously passed the hoplites in the front row and ran directly towards the array of archers.

The darkness suddenly rose, and the bow and arrow commander of the Demon Alliance couldn't see the target indication of the troops in front at all, because he was afraid of hurting his own people, so the bow and arrow had already stopped firing.

By the time the archers were aware of it, the enemy's feathered arrows were already coming at them with the breath of death.

From the howling wind, a dull metal crash came from the archers' array, and this crash was mixed with screams, spreading from front to back, from the center to the wings!

When the archer, who had not died, came back to his senses and wiped the blood from his face, he looked around and found that few people in the array were still standing. The companions around him all fell, their bodies were filled with feather arrows with white feathers and black rods, and some of the overlapping bodies on the ground were still squirming slightly, and a faint, suppressed moan came from below......

In the blink of an eye, the Divine Alliance returned to the enemy army double the casualties they had just suffered!

After the second horn sounded, the soldiers of the Divine Alliance hidden in the position appeared from the large and small foxholes and launched an almost crazy attack on the Demon Alliance forces in the position.

Although they had fought back before, those counterattacks were far less intense, perverted, and blatant than this time.

Although the Demon Alliance didn't know what was going on, the nature of the soldiers drove them in the face of the enemy forces pouring out from all directions. Let them plunge into the battle without hesitation.

Cohen had a large army hiding underground throughout the position. Such a sudden attack is indeed amazing. The outer Divine Coalition forces are killed inside, and the Divine Coalition forces inside are rushing outward!

The battle situation is one after another, fighting everywhere, the armies of both sides are twisted into a big whirlpool on the position, you have me, I have you, and each army is surrounded by others while being surrounded by others.

There are only two exceptions, and that is on both sides of the position. Because the offensive of the Divine Coalition Army there was the most crazy and the largest number of troops invested, this wave of deadly attacks overwhelmed the Demon Coalition troops stationed in these two places, and had to temporarily retreat and move closer to the center of the position......

No matter who wins or loses, it won't take two hours, and the Demon Alliance won't want to pull their feet out of this quagmire.

The Tucheng position, at this time, has already embodied the most important mission it has undertaken - that is, to gradually lure the enemy into depth, to pin down most of the enemy's main battle corps with repeated position battles, so that the counteroffensive forces of the Divine Alliance have a chance to break through!

"Luring the enemy deeper", this sentence is easier said than done. It's so hard to get it right. In the previous battle, a little softer or harder of the Divine Alliance's Cousin could lead to the failure of the plan.

Since last night. Cohen did everything he could, and he didn't have a single trick left.

beating drums in the middle of the night, abandoning the walls, rebelling against slaves, fighting for positions...... Cohen gradually used this series of tactics, sometimes showing weakness to the enemy, sometimes fighting to the death, forcing his opponent to use the tactics he wanted.

Sure enough, little by little, Kornton Guò managed to turn the tide, and the enemy army also threw a large number of troops into the field, and now, from the bottom of the walls of the enemy's command post to the position, there were not many troops in between.

Cohen's counteroffensive sword is finally unsheathed!

The third horn sounded, and the two counteroffensive forces of the Divine Alliance, composed of the most elite soldiers, slaughtered fiercely from the passages opened up by their comrades with blood and lives on both sides of the position!

The sword flashed in the wind, and the sound of killing in the darkness shook the sky, overwhelming the garrison of the Demon Alliance.

The little demon alliance at the front of the position couldn't resist these two rolling iron currents at all, and even the special troops who assisted them only shook in this iron flow for a few times and disappeared.

The hoplites of the Demon Coalition formed up in formation amid loud shouts, and the soldiers smashed the giant shield on their left hand into the mud, and the spear in their right hand was flat, waiting for the Divine Coalition to rush up and die.

They knew that as long as they withstood this round of enemy attacks, the troops behind them would arrive. As far as pure ground defense is concerned, with only this set of armor on his body that covers from head to toe, he is not afraid of any kind of attack.

The commander of the 27th Army had already entered the position to take command, and the commander of the 28th Army Corps was left behind, this strong major general was inflamed by the heavy casualties of his own side, and the reality of the large-scale counteroffensive of the Divine Alliance forces made his blood even more enthusiastic.

At the sound of an order, he personally led the troops to meet him.

In the darkness, Cohen's eyes flickered, and his mouth muttered, "It's up to you!"

In the air, the winged troops, which had not fought since the siege, were flying low, preparing to skim over their own counter-attacking forces.

The Divine Coalition rushed in front of them, and the two sides were only fifty paces away, and the hoplites crouched slightly under the commander's shout of "Prepare to engage the enemy!" and leaned forward with their upper bodies, ready to resist the powerful onslaught of the enemy in such a way as to lower and shift their center of gravity.

But the first to patronize them was not the ground forces, but the winged men on their heads.

There were constantly neatly arranged wingmen quickly skimming over the hoplites, and after flying for a certain distance, there were always some winged men whose bodies suddenly froze in the air.

Similarly, without warning, some hoplites in the front row would jerk their whole bodies back with a muffled grunt, and fall on all fours in place with a "Lie down!"

Each winged man who flew by threw a long rope from his hand, and a rope loop was tied to the other end...... This is a basic life skill of the Winged Humans, who often have to do this to get their live prey in order to fill their stomachs.

Although the light is dim now, the winged people are quite accurate, this is their eating guy!

Hoplites wrestling was a matter of life and death, because of the armor on their bodies, they couldn't get up when they fell to the ground. And how they fell, most people don't know.

Ping's outstretched spear is the culprit. Winged people threw rope loops on top of it for the purpose of lassing the spear. The rope loop that slid along the barrel of the gun was instantly attached to the hoplite's right arm. The hoplites had not yet had time to exert their strength. The whole person has been hung diagonally.

After all the wingmen accelerated and preemptively cleared the guò, the originally tight front of the Demon Coalition immediately ceased to exist, and only three or two kittens remained of the hoplites still standing.

The people who fell to the ground were struggling with their lives, but the armor was too heavy, most of them could only support a small half of their bodies, and few could sit up, at least before the counteroffensive troops of the Divine Alliance rushed in, no one could stand up.

And then. They lay down on the ground honestly, trampled on, stunned, and trampled to death by countless feet......

The hoplite defense line has been officially broken!

"Crack!" another flash of lightning struck, pointing out the direction of advance for the counteroffensive troops in the air!

Wen in the air immediately blew a sharp whistle, his body shook and flew higher, and the winged man behind him had already taken out a strong crossbow from his waist and flew high with Wen's figure.

Seeing that the hoplites in front of him were broken through, the commander of the 28th Legion of the Demon Alliance didn't care much, after all, no matter how heavy the dead objects standing on the ground were, they would sometimes be pushed down. But then he heard two shrill whistles coming from afar, which made him feel shocked.

"The enemy has air troops!" the thought flashed through his horse as he rode his horse. The third whistle had sounded, and in an instant it was overhead.

"Be careful—" His wild cry was interrupted midway, and the first crossbow bolt fired by Yuwen pierced through his mouth and out of the back of his neck!

Wen's fierce gaze swept across his face, and then his body turned, drawing an arc and flying back into the sky.

"Uh...... Uh......" The major general grabbed the tail of the arrow with his left hand, and pulled the whole crossbow arrow out of his mouth, and the blood immediately gushed out, and his face twitched a few times, and his body softened into a ball and fell off the horse.

He died, but the suffering of his troops had just begun.

Countless winged men swooped down from the sky, the crossbow arrows in their hands poured mercilessly on these soldiers, and then their bodies turned and swayed upward, turning the lower handle of the crossbow in the fly, and drawing the arrows on the string to prepare for the next dive......

After several dives of the winged people, the counter-attacking troops of the Divine Alliance rushed in front of the enemy, and the two troops were like two sharp knives inserted into the enemy array, and the attack momentum was extremely fierce.

Rushing in front were all tall orc soldiers, these soldiers with heavy responsibilities were armed with large knives, and they completely looked like they were exchanging their lives for their lives, and they didn't care about their own safety at all.

Rock, who had just become the squad leader, had rushed to the front with his brother all the way to the front, and his armor was stained with the blood of the enemy, making countless Demon Alliance soldiers understand in them that the word "fierce" is not unique to their own army.

I understand, but it's a pity that it's late.

A series of tactical coordination, dizzying fierce attacks, and lightning-fast attack speed all caused the Demon Alliance to be in chaos.

They are good at attacking, but the enemy's attack is terrifying, they are the tigers out of the cage, but the enemy is all red-eyed madmen.

Seeing that the battle situation was gradually becoming clearer, Cohen patted Gardnan on the shoulder: "Old man, it's on!"

"Good!" Gardnan exclaimed excitedly, and the drums began to beat in a loud voice.

The rhythm was taught to Gardnan by Cohen with a stick. With the change of pace, a force once again rushed out from the right side of the position, with fully armed soldiers in front and nearly a thousand young refugees in the back.

They are all the officers and men of the Ninth Legion and the people that Cohen is willing to protect with his life.

They are following this path of hope, step by step towards the front line, as long as they protrude through the city wall, there is open terrain outside, and the demon alliance cannot catch them in the chaos.

"Thank you, my brothers, for the happy times you have given me, and I will always remember you, no matter where you are. Cohen's eyes followed the troops, his eyes filled with tenderness that he had not shown since the siege: "That's all I can do...... Take care!"

After a series of breathless attacks, by the time the drums changed, the Demon Alliance's side could no longer hold on.

"Report to the sir!" An officer with several crossbow arrows in his body ran back to the command post, vomiting blood and said to the lieutenant general: "The two lines of defense of our army have been broken, the commander of the 28th Army Corps has been killed, the third line of defense cannot hold out, and the enemy's front line is not enough to reach the command post...... Less than a mile...... There are no more troops left in the city......"

The officer's words were not finished. I had lost so much blood that I fainted.

The lieutenant general's heart sank! The troops outside the city were the 26th Army Corps. Because the roads were full of horse-drawn carriages transporting the wounded. The 26th Corps, which was full of light cavalry, could not enter for a while, and all the troops in the city were trapped in their positions......

I didn't expect this Phantom Legion's counterattack to be so fast and so fierce! Now it is my own command post that is helpless and extremely dangerous.

As soon as the military flag moves, the army is not in the heart, and the divine alliance forces will take the opportunity to kill again...... This battle may be lost!

If you don't retreat? There is only one of his own personal guards and some wounded soldiers left around the command post, how can he resist the enemy's fierce attack, and he may die!

"Sir, retreat quickly! Subordinates here are guarded!" the staff officer rushed up and said, "The counterattack of the Divine Alliance is the end of the crossbow, and Your Excellency will go and gather the 26th Army Corps behind." We will definitely not let the Divine Alliance rush out of one!"

"Crack!" another bolt of lightning slashed down in front of the command post in the air, and at this moment of lightning, the lieutenant general had already made his choice.

"Order! The 26th Army Corps will press on immediately! You go personally!" The lieutenant general drew his sword: "All the officers and men of the command post come with me!"

"Sir, stop!" a guard rushed up and hugged his feet: "You can't go!"

"I'm a soldier! If the soldiers die, I can't die?" The lieutenant general kicked the guard away: "As long as my death can be exchanged for victory and the honor of the Demon Alliance, I will die bravely!

"Take care, sir!" With tears in his eyes, the staff officer gave the lieutenant general a standard military salute, and then grabbed the lieutenant general's order and jumped directly from the city wall!

"All the warriors inside and outside the walls - for the honor of the Dark Lord, for the honor of the Demon Alliance, for the honor of the warriors, take up your weapons, burn your will to fight, and stand with me!" Lieutenant General walked on the wall. He shouted loudly: "My glorious soldiers, I will personally lead you in a bloody battle! We can also die for honor! Fight for honor!"

"Willing to follow the general!

The soldiers of the Guards Regiment echoed loudly, and thousands of troops were well-groomed and their fighting spirit was high.

"Hold all exits, not a single enemy can rush out!" the lieutenant general ordered in a loud voice: "The Divine Alliance will see - the soldiers of the Demon Coalition are not in vain!"

"Always follow the general!" thousands of people responded loudly at the same time.

These people divided their troops to guard a dozen exits, but they were a dozen or so exits, and even if the wounded soldiers who stood up were included, each exit was only defended by a few hundred people. Before they could get scared, there was a "whirring" sound overhead.

Countless black shadows swept through the sky, rushing towards the light cavalry army outside the city, this is the winged people's troops, they are going to drag the light cavalry outside the city!

The Twenty-sixth Army Corps outside the city was moving slowly, almost step by step, in this direction - because the catapults threw too many stones, and the passages outside the city were already scarce, and now they were crowded with wagons for the wounded, and the wingmen who flew out of the city first attacked the horses pulling the carts, and now the outside of the city was in complete disarray.

The Divine Coalition Army had crushed the troops that had resisted in front of them, and was rushing towards the ruined city wall like a storm! Here, at this moment, the positions of the attacking and defending sides had been completely reversed.

"Fight to the death and not retreat!" In the middle of a wild shout from the lieutenant general, the two sides began to fight!

"Fight to the death!" the soldiers of the Guards Regiment responded in a loud voice, fighting to the death, and there was really no one with fear on their faces.

The Divine Coalition was attacking fiercely, and after a few faces, the defenders near the exit were almost dead.

"Fight to the death!" the lieutenant general shouted again, leading a few staff officers and the soldiers of the Divine Alliance who had already rushed to the city wall.

"Fight to the death!" Standing behind the Guards were the wounded who could still move, and these people responded to the lieutenant general in a loud voice, taking the place of their comrades who had just died, and continued to resist the onslaught of the Divine Alliance.

"Fight to the death—" Before the words were finished, the lieutenant general, who was struggling to kill at the head of the city, stumbled and fell.

Then, in the chorus of mournful shouts of the staff officers and guards beside the lieutenant general, the military flag of the command post of the demon coalition army also shook twice, and fell down in an exclamation!

"Sir, the walls are broken!" Cohen and the staff officers beside him saw the scene in the intense light of lightning, and Carlos shouted and danced. It's as if you've rushed out yourself!

"yes!" Cohen smiled. Only then did he notice that his hand holding the knife had turned pale from overexertion: "Rushed out of the city wall." Victory is in sight!"

The command post of the Divine Coalition Army was even more jubilant, at such a time, Tong Guò's own efforts actually made his comrades rush out, what a great victory!

The walls were broken, and the enemy's 26th Army Corps was also in chaos under the attack of the Wingmen, the Wingmen did not shoot people, and the commander of the 26th Legion watched the flag of his command post fall but could not do anything, only a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

There was a river of blood at the exit of the wall. Aside from the sporadic fighting in a few sections, the first soldier of the Divine Alliance to rush ahead had already stepped onto the ground outside the city walls. As soon as they get out of the walls, these people can fly over the rubble.

The success of the breakthrough has become an ironclad fact!

However, this was a foregone conclusion, but it changed at this time.

"Fight to the death and don't retreat!" In a shout that was extremely difficult to hear but full of grief and indignation, a seriously wounded member of the Demon Alliance rushed out of the carriage next to the exit, shouting: "Always follow the general!"

He dragged loose bandages behind him, and in the violent running, blood beads from the re-ruptured wounds on his body splattered!

With a "check", the seriously injured soldier immediately died under the sword of the Divine Alliance. One knife and two paragraphs!

"Fight to the death!" With this reply, more people got out of the carriage that stopped outside the passage. kept pouring up to the entrance of the passage: "Always follow the general!"

They were the seriously wounded lying in the wagon, who should have been unable to move, but now God knows what was supporting them to get up.

However, one thing is certain, they did get up, and the wounded blocked the exit to the walls with themselves!

"Fight to the death!" More and more wounded people hugged each other and squeezed into the passage, their eyes shining with tears, their faces full of pride, and they roared with their dying bodies: "Always follow the general!"

The god alliance army that rushed out of the city wall frantically slashed and killed these wounded with the weapons in their hands, but they couldn't finish cutting and killing!

The few remaining garrison troops in the camp of the Demon Coalition Army came out and rushed this way like crazy, and the light cavalry of the 26th Legion even ignored the wingmen who were still entangled in their heads, and rushed up against the rain of arrows!

"O Dark Lord, we are always proud of the sovereigns we serve, and we sing your name forever and ever.

We praise you for saving us.

When the enemy came against us, he stumbled and died.

Though a great army was attacking us, our hearts did not tremble.

Let us lift up our heads and despise the great enmity that surrounds us, and let us offer a sacrifice of joy in his tabernacle.

O Dark Lord, our Sovereign!

We will sing prayers of praise to you on the altar of our enemies. “

In this wave of prayers, all the soldiers of the Demon Alliance didn't care about their own life and death, the wounded in front of you made you slash with a fierce face, and the wounded in the back squeezed forward with a sigh!

In this way, the demon coalition army in the back stood up to the dead companions in front of them, and forcibly squeezed back the troops of the god alliance army protruding from the city wall step by step!

The counter-attacking forces of the Divine Alliance Army did not retreat, but they could not stand up to the superiority of the enemy's numbers, and looking at the city wall behind him that was getting closer and closer, the feeling of shame and indignation was like digging out his heart and lungs!

A team of special troops was snatched out of the Demon Alliance, and they flew all the way up the city wall, slashing and slashing wildly, and raised their own military flags in the wild shouts of 10,000 people!

What's even more unexpected is that this special unit fought to the death in the chaos to the place where the lieutenant general fell, and dug out the lieutenant general from under the layers of corpses.

The lieutenant general, whose left elbow was cut off, was crushed by several staff officers when he was wounded, thus escaping the pursuit of the Divine Alliance. After being rescued under the military flag by this special unit, the pale-faced lieutenant general raised his sword and shouted again!

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!" The Demon Coalition Army roared with joy, trampling on the corpses of nearly 10,000 of its own wounded, and finally squeezed the Divine Coalition Army back into the city wall.

The soldiers of the 26th Army rushed in, the battle line was in a stalemate, and the advantage of the Divine Alliance was gone.

Seeing this qiē, there was silence in the command post of the Divine Alliance, and everyone's face was like ashes.

"Smack!", the black iron knife in Cohen's hand fell to the ground, so depressed that he almost wanted to cry.

He racked his brains to turn the situation back, and finally let the demon coalition force be careless and create this fleeting fighter...... Thousands of calculations, but he couldn't calculate that he would be planted on the enemy's wounded soldiers!

It's that there are thousands of strange plans hidden in my chest, but the sky refuses to obey my wishes...... Cohen's heart was already discouraged, and he didn't cry because he was holding back just now.

But what kind of character is he? In the blink of an eye, the arrogance in his heart will come up, even if he dies, he will have to pull on enough cushions!

"The fighter plane is gone, and the counter-attacking troops are all retreating! Archers are covering!" Cohen said in a hoarse voice, "Fight to the death and not retreat, right...... I'll show you what the real fight to the death is!!" (To be continued......)
