Chapter 851 The Madness After the Prologue (Part 2)(1/2)
The blood moon is in the sky, indicating that a bloody killing is about to come.
And under the blood moon, the sharp blades that were waving wildly had already flashed with a dazzling cold light.
Lei Xiao looked below the city wall, and countless enemy siege soldiers rolling like an avalanche, had already entered the range of the magic cannon and decisively issued a firing order.
For a moment, although the giant energy-driven magic array that was constantly rotating above his head was still rapidly pulling away from the entire area of magic energy particles.
But the scene of 1,000 magic cannons being fired alternately is still extremely shocking.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the same time as the roar sounded, balls of fireballs immediately rose from the enemy's siege soldiers' camp.
I saw the hideous soldiers located in the center of the explosion of fireballs, either melted directly into the flames or were blown into pieces.
The heated waves of air that stirred up drove the soldiers at the edge out one after another, and then wailed and fell to the ground.
For a moment, the explosion was mixed with screams, but it was soon covered by the earth-shaking shouts of killing.
"Have the power been reduced by half? Under the opponent's dense charge formation, the killing range of a second-level magic cannon is only the size of the team."
Lei Xiao looked at the rolling smoke rising in front of him and frowned tightly.
From the beginning, the opponent blocked the way to break the energy-driven magic array.
With his own strength, it is undoubtedly impossible to successfully remove the energy-driven magic array guarded by two fifth-level veterans and five legions from the perspective of 15 legions.
In addition to the fierce siege army at present, I had just received emergency reports from the Red Stone of Luolong City, Shi Feng of the territory, Gail of Fanyin City, Songluo City, Iron Castle and other shadow squadrons.
Almost all traditional and new aristocratic cities that have just been pacified have appeared in the third-level or elite brotherhood powerhouses or the other party, which are damaging and shaking rebellion.
With the city's new garrison soldiers and the extremely limited number of shadow squadrons and communication magician subordinates, it is obviously impossible to compete with each other for too long.
It can be imagined that once these defensive forces in our cities are completely destroyed, or they choose to surrender until they are occupied by their opponents, it will greatly affect the morale of the defenders of Wangxing City.
After all, if you even get your hometown one by one, it means you will be attacked from both sides.
Thinking of this, although Lei Xiao was still calmly commanding from the surface, his heart had already been overturned, and even felt his feet were a little sluggish.
The murderous aura and anxious blood that kept coming from the front almost made him unable to think normally.
Even so, Lei Xiao still clearly understood.
The battle to defend the city has just begun. If you leave with your subordinates in a panic, it will also cause panic among the soldiers who defend the city. After all, the other party has two powerful fifth-level powerful men on the spot.
Once the opponent seizes the opportunity and directly conquers the place, the result will undoubtedly be one way to destroy.
Therefore, at least before resisting the opponent's first wave of offensive, he and his main subordinates could not return to Zhucheng in the rear, nor could he show any panic.
"But this is not the deadliest."
Lei Xiaoqing listened to the fierce gunfire and the shaking shouts of killing, and began to clarify the current situation.
According to the Goblin King Hongshi, at least 10 legions of half-beast soldiers took advantage of the night to touch Luolong City and launched a massive and comprehensive attack.
Although the Luolong City Wall is solid and the main defensive force is, after all, there are only two Goblin Legions, and the remaining one reserve Goblin Legions and five brigades of recruits are vulnerable to the tall and strong opponents, and they have to rely on magic cannon fire to suppress them.
Moreover, Hongshi also added in panic that the aura of a fifth-level powerful man appeared under the city.
"If this situation continues, Luolong City will not last long. Once the Orc Legion is allowed to enter directly and form a double-teamed force against these siege soldiers, the consequences will be self-evident."
"You know, this is the thing I was most worried about before the war. I didn't expect that the orcs in the outer realm would really take the initiative to attack Luolong City. This must be the other party's fault."
"In order to completely defeat me, the other party really does everything he wants. Even the orcs who have always had a very bad relationship with the human race have used it. If they are attacked by the orcs, there will definitely be corpses everywhere."
Lei Xiao tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart, and his palms were already soaked in sweat.
In addition, Shi Feng, who has been monitoring the narrow passage in the north of the territory, has also confirmed the identity of the unknown army, and is also a fierce orc legion.
Since there are several fourth-level peak powerful men in the opponent's camp, including shamans who are good at using corrosion.
Therefore, the road that had been sealed was soon corroded, and there was no time for the strong people in the territory to react. As for the size of this orc, it was about 5 legions.
"One half-orc level fifth-level strongman, several fourth-level peak-level strongman, plus the strength of 15 legions, this undoubtedly means that the opponent in front of me has reached the size of 45 legions."
Lei Xiao's heart began to pound, and sweat beads on his forehead were also flowing.
Although at the beginning, I had already expected that the opponent would take a different approach to disperse his defensive combat power, I didn't expect that as soon as the beginning began, the opponent was so crazy.
"The territory is protected by absolute defensive barriers, and Zhusha's third-level magician squadron, 2 third-level magic archers, 3 second-level elite brigades, and other main subordinates will not be at a disadvantage for a while."
"The Luolong City and more than 20 newly pacified cities are imminent. Any of these links may become a sharp blade that penetrates our key points until we completely collapse."
Lei Xiao just thought of this in his mind that the first batch of opponents who came from the city had entered the range of bows and arrows.
"Since the magic has been greatly reduced, let you taste the power of my ten thousand long bowmen."
Lei Xiao did not hesitate and decisively issued an order to shoot an arrow.
With the rapid sound of our archery horns, the longbowers who were ready to go were waving their bows and arrows, and shining magic arrows pointed directly at the two blood moons in the air.
Immediately afterwards, under the coordinated command of their respective commanders, they both loosened their fingers that were buckled.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The endless sound of feather arrows breaking through the air and shaking in the burning air.
More than 5,000 magical light flashing arrows fell from the sky like a dense meteor shower, and shot straight into the opponent's camp that was roaring.
Although under the action of the energy-driven magic array, the effect of magic arrows is also greatly reduced.
However, these sharp arrows with armor-piercing effects can still easily penetrate ordinary shields and armor with the blessing of a third-level longbow. Only the heavy armor of heavy infantrymen and the giant shield in their hands can barely resist it.
The dense and sharp arrows passed by like the shrill chant of the god of death, and easily nailed the enemy soldiers with fangs and claws under the city wall until their blood-covered pupils completely lost their luster.
Then, the second wave of arrows roared again, and once again, harvesting a bunch of enemy soldiers holding sharp blades.
However, although thousands of soldiers were stained with blood on the battlefield, this did not stop the other party from being a little bit.
Under the development of the shield-holding infantry rushing in the front, the heavy infantry that followed soon formed a dense shield formation.
The magic cannons ready to go and tens of thousands of longbowmen soon stood in the gap in the defensive formation and began to fight back with a grim smile.
This time, under the constant sound of explosions and dense rain of arrows, it was our turn to scream and fall down in batches.
I saw the warm and bright red that kept gushing out flowing freely along the gaps of the city walls and stone floors, making the bloody smell that was already filled with the nose become thicker.
As the rubble splattered, Lei Xiao even saw a young soldier who was blown up and his belly cracked, and was quickly carried down by the new recruits responsible for transporting the wounded, leaving only a shocking red puddle still in place.
"Fese, Mr. El, Mr. Lanco, be sure to save them as much as possible."
On Lei Xiao's forehead, covered with sweat beads, blue veins began to be faintly exposed, and he was obviously on the verge of anger.
In addition to the third-level elite priest squadron commanded by Fes and two fourth-level and a half-level elves, there are five squadrons of low-level priests in Wangxing City on standby.
With the support of a large number of healing potions and healing magic scrolls, our casualties will undoubtedly be reduced to a minimum.
After Feis and the other three bowed and took the order and left, the opponent's formation was still advancing steadily under the continuous artillery fire and the rain of arrows in the sky.
The sound of the attack horns and the deafening sound of artillery fire echoed on the battlefield, which can be clearly seen from the offensive and defensive scenes.
Since the power of the magic cannons on both sides of the enemy and us has been greatly weakened, the archers have become the master of the battlefield.
Although our archers are more well equipped, the number of opponents is more than three times that of ours, so this is still the case when the opponent's subsequent legion is not under pressure.
Not long after paying the price of tens of thousands of casualties, the opponent rushed to the front of the shield-holding soldier, which was close to the city wall!
Then, something that Lei Xiao did not expect happened.
I saw that one magic scroll that had been prepared had been activated one after another in the enemy's camp.
Magic bridges, either wooden or earth, immediately extended out of the ground and were soon built on the towering city wall.
The shouts of killing soared into the sky began to become more and more intense, and a large number of siege soldiers waved sharp blades and rushed to climb the magic bridges leading to the city walls.
This scene immediately made our soldiers on the city wall become extremely nervous, and a sense of uneasiness began to unconsciously spread.
When the opponent released the energy-driven magic array, the power of the magic cannon was greatly reduced, our morale, which had already risen, began to decline.
"Lord, these soldiers are really crazy."
Ailier, who had been standing tightly beside Lei Xiao, had a solemn expression on his face.
Although under the protection of the absolute defensive barrier, the opponent's ordinary soldiers could not cause any damage to the place, the bloody scenes in other areas around still made the Leng Yan Princess bit her lips tightly.
After pausing, Alier frowned and added: "It seems that Brother King and Brother Second King have obviously promised many benefits that are enough to make these soldiers bloodthirsty."
"No matter what they promised, we cannot shake our determination to keep it here."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, then said to the main force around him: "Okay, the other party is close enough, let them taste our anger."
"As for orders, Lord Lord!"
The subordinates surrounding Lei Xiao received the orders, and except Jiang Li and Ail, they quickly dispersed in front of each magic bridge.
I saw that the first ones were naturally Hongye and Konoha.
Under Lei Xiao's instruction, Hongye and the knotweed showed their power, and the scorching flames and sharp sword light flew together on the battlefield.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of soldiers who were trying to rush up easily stained the spot with blood.
Especially the vast aura that erupted from the two fifth-level powerful men made other enemy soldiers who wanted to rush up stop in horror.
Lian, Sarah, Elusha, Nanxing, Nanyue, Chaoyan, Bai Wei, and Or, Hod, Benson, and Jubai, who were commanding in front of the formation, also arrived later and easily repelled the opponent's first wave of attacks.
To be continued...
