At night, the moon is dark and the stars are scarce.

The Runners' army besieged the city.

The snake people have the ability to observe thermal imaging at night, secrete mucus in their abdomen during the attack, and crawl on the plane of the city wall, so they are more difficult to deal with, while the six-legged beasts lack the ability to climb the city, and have been sweeping the farmland and uninhabited villages around the lord city in recent days.

In the face of the attack, rows of torches were lit on the city walls, the 300-strong mage group released fireballs to provide vision for their side, and ordinary soldiers under the leadership of knightly officers guarded the various defense nodes, and in a large-scale war, the vast majority of them were only numbers on the record sheet.

Jiang Yuan set up his hunting bow, [rapid fire] made his string pull extremely fast, one by one sharp arrows disappeared into the night, and then brought up pieces of blood, and occasionally activated the armor on the enemy leader's body, and the poison caused many enemies to fall into paralysis and fall to the head of the city.

In an offensive and defensive battle, at least hundreds of snake people died under the flying feathers, and the enemy discovered the humanoid firepower nodes on the city wall, and sent elite members to mix in the team to sneak attack, and the result was that they were taken care of by the bursting arrows.

……

In the woods on the hill in the distance.

The fifth seat of the Cult's Dark Sacred Codex, Quine Esser, stared at the dim moon in a daze, and the strong man next to him also stared at the shield in a daze, not continuing to maintain this beloved magic item.

In fact, neither of them had the intention of letting the sub-people grow bigger, and according to the normal development, when the kingdom army drove the enemy out of the territory and cut off the battlefield to the north, it was necessary to let the flanks provide support, and at that time, it was an opportunity for them to kill the new heroes.

The central part is blocked, and the Holy Kingdom launches a full-scale counterattack, as long as the Great Wall of the Border is lost again, it can swallow half of the main force of the Asians, so that this group of filthy guys will not be able to recover for more than ten years, so as to complete both mission objectives.

But things are always impermanent, and the defeat of the kingdom army in the first battle probably exceeded everyone's expectations, including the sub-people and the kingdom itself.

The current situation is enough to make people anxious, the new heroes have been identified but not killed, and the subhumans seem to have some signs of achieving an empire, which is an intolerable thing for the Holy Church that advocates the supremacy of mankind.

At present, the best way to break the situation is to ask the pro-dragon kingdom to intervene, but the church and the country close to the dragon are very incompatible, from the perspective of human supremacy, praying for the gift of the dragon is undoubtedly a complete betrayal of their own race.

"It seems that the subhumans will not be able to capture the lord city for the time being, the bow and arrow held by that hero is of high quality, but this city has become a key node in the overall situation, if we kill the other party and lead to collapse, we will all become sinners."

The strong man was a little speechless at these words, because he had never been involved in the development of the plan.

Quinn was silent for a long time, the Holy Kingdom was stopped outside the Great Wall on the border, the Pro-Dragon Kingdom was closed on its own, and the empire was advancing a new change with the new emperor ascending to the throne.

"Contact [Bai Lao], just say that we are willing to help the sub-people break through the frozen city, the destructive power of the giant wall has been confirmed, and those guys will not refuse."

The strong man's eyes widened when he heard this, and he suspected that there was a traitor among the two of them.

Quinn Esse said calmly, "In this situation, I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to go back, since this is the case, then force out the potential of the kingdom, a fiasco may also be a good thing, at least let the kingdom army understand that the enemy is an existence that cannot be taken lightly." ”

"I just ...... Responsible for keeping you safe. The strong man said with difficulty.

……

In the year 618 of the new calendar, in early February.

The Runners' army attacked the lord city for a long time, leaving tens of thousands of corpses at the city walls.

The main force of 70,000 men was transferred from the battlefield of the Great Wall on the border, and just when the spectators thought that the Asians were going to forcibly take this hard bone, the news came that the whole country of Yestij was in a panic.

The frozen city built by the warrior commander Gurdjieff was declared lost, and the 30,000 kingdom army was forced to retreat, and on the way to retreat, the warrior commander set up an ambush circle, swallowed up a radical cavalry, and annihilated more than 4,000 enemies, becoming the first victory since the beginning of the war.

But this could not change the crisis that affected the entire kingdom, and the northern region was completely reduced to enemy territory, the defense line was broken, and the fertile direct royal domain had already appeared into a formed subhuman army.

In the face of the victory of the warrior commander this time, the pro-king faction and the aristocratic faction lost interest in competing for results, and how a sub-human periodic offensive activity evolved into a war of annihilation of the country, most people recall it like a dream.

The Imperial Council was convened again, and the king ordered the immediate dismissal of all military positions of the first prince, with the governor of the Northlands, the head of the six nobles, the second prince handling government affairs, and the golden princess Lana going out to unite the lone army of various ministries, escorted by the steel-level adventurer team Cangqiang Rose, and started the general mobilization of the whole territory to recapture the lost land at any cost.

War resumed, the kingdom gathered 150,000 troops, and if it failed again, the king would have to move the capital south.

Mid-February.

Ravenhou did not use any strategy, but commanded the army to advance steadily northward.

During this period, in the face of various opportunities to speed up the progress, they all turned a blind eye, and finally encountered the main force of the subhumans in the direct leadership of the royal family, and fought fiercely for three days, wounding more than 20,000 enemies, and their own losses were also as high as 20,000.

In late February, there were three more large-scale encounters.

Nearly 50,000 bodies of both sides were thrown on the battlefield, and for a time the impeachment of Levenhou was piled up on the king's table, but the second prince who presided over the affairs responded by saying that the royal family fully supported all of Ravenhou's military actions.

In early March, the fighting reached its highest intensity.

After the warrior commander Gurdjief killed [Devil's Claw], after each side lost more than 10,000 troops, the Asians took the lead and could not bear the losses, and the problem of excessively long supply lines and food shortages finally broke out, and the kingdom army reluctantly drove the main force of the Asians out of the territory at the cost of a crushing victory.

However, the kingdom army was no longer able to fight, because the consequences of defeat could not be bearable, and Ravenhou chose to maintain the dignity of the kingdom by fighting for national strength.

The second prince decreed that the marquis of the North, the culprit of the incident, be executed with immediate effect, and that all the nobles should be given responsibility for all the defeats since the beginning of the war, and that the nobles should be allowed to hunt freely in the northern region, and that the land they occupied would be permanently fiefdom as long as they could be wiped out.

Once again, the war potential was squeezed and released, and many elite adventurer squads poured into the battlefield, as the New Fiefdom Act also worked for the freed.

At the same time, the Holy Kingdom stormed the Great Wall on the border, and the subhumans were forced to switch from offensive posture to strategic defense, but [Snake King] overrode the public opinion and sent [Bai Lao] and the second of the Ten Masters [Scaly Horn King] to lead the tribe to defend the northern city.

This city has been fired, but only the southern wall has collapsed, with the rock talent of the stone-eating ape, it can be repaired quickly, the stronghold is deep into the enemy territory, taking a huge risk, but it is enough as the last hope for the establishment of the subhuman empire, and at the same time, the small subhuman troops scattered in the north will not completely lose the will to fight, [Scaly Horn King] is a dragon, the number of the clan is only more than a thousand, but it is the most elite secret army of the subhuman kingdom, according to expectations, it can be completely defended.
