The long horn sound of "beep" wafted over the iron fist castle. Tens of thousands of soldiers shook hands with their weapons and stared at the undead creatures flowing like tide under the city. Their minds were firm and their hearts were calm. Because behind these Cassano warriors is their home, their family lives here, "Undead! Never retreat!" This is the only thought of these Cassano warriors.
About 10 days ago, the Cassano scout troops stationed on the west side of the Valen Mountains found signs of the Legion of the Undead. When the news was delivered to the Iron Fist castle, the highest military officer who stayed here, Adela, immediately issued an order and began. Fire mobilization, on the one hand, she organized forces to attack the invasion of the undead, and on the one hand, she moved a large number of civilians to a safe area. All this was already planned in detail, so there were not too many big problems in the implementation. After paying some price, Adela led 100,000 Cassano soldiers and civilians to guard the Iron Fist castle to wait for reinforcements from the imperial capital. .
Originally in the plan in advance, only 60,000 people guarded the Iron Fist castle, 30,000 regular Cassano fighters, and 30,000 strong Cassano youths. But to everyone's surprise, when the news of the invasion of the undead came, many Cassano people spontaneously took up their weapons and joined the ranks of the invaders, many of them just joined Cassano not long after. New residents, under the decree issued by Ryan before, they have successfully acquired a new identity and are full of longing for a better life in the future. So when someone wants to invade here and destroy their lives, these The man bravely picked up his weapon and chose to die and resist.
Of course, the real reason for supporting these people to fight bravely is the lord of Cassano, the youngest cursing mage in human history, Ryan. The guy with good deeds once counted all the records of Ryan since he entered Cassano and found him. He never failed, no matter how many powerful enemies there are in front of this young legendary mage, he will eventually be annihilated in the rolling flames under his hands. This glorious miracle inspires everyone to fight, because they are convinced that no matter what How dangerous the situation is now, as long as Ryan rushes back, everything will be over.
"The soldiers of the Guards are prepared to block these bones." Adela, the highest military chief of Cassano, dressed in a uniform, stood on the castle of the Iron Fist castle and gave the order.
"Uh!" There was a uniform movement on the city wall, which made people look unspeakable and pleasing. The soldiers who were ordered to guard the Cassano Guard Corps on the front line were carefully selected and rigorously trained, and After many tests of blood and fire, their combat experience is now very rich. Although they are very tired, but after hearing the command of the chief, these sturdy soldiers can still raise their shields neatly. A solid shield wall was formed to block the climbing of the undead soldiers under the city.
The attack of the undead army is completely different from the attack of any human army. They have no logistics supplies and do not need a variety of siege equipment. For these moving bones, they are the best to use. Tool of. When the army of undead began to attack Cassano ’s Iron Fist castle on the first day, they could not cross the sky of kerosene and boulders near the city wall. On the third morning they arrived under the city wall, and today , That is, after six days of continuous siege of the Iron Fist Castle, the Undead Warriors who died under the Iron Fist Castle City have used their bodies to build up a thick bone flash, and the Undead Warriors who continue to attack later just follow the "senior" The bones can easily rush into the city.
Adela looked at the endless "sea of ​​bones" and couldn't help but sigh. They still underestimated the momentum of these bones before. They thought that three times of kerosene and boulders were enough. It took only two days in a defensive battle with strong overload. Fortunately, Adela adopted a rotation system of soldiers. In addition to leaving 10,000 reserves, the remaining 90,000 people were divided into three groups, one group of defensive walls, one group of healing recovery, and one group resting under the walls. , And rotate once a day. However, when this rotation system was implemented on the fourth day, it had become a twice-a-day exchange. From this morning, Adela had to adjust again, adding the remaining 50,000 soldiers to the reserve team. There are 2 groups to cope with the shortage of manpower due to the huge loss of soldiers.
Adela thought of the current unfavorable situation, but no signs appeared on the surface. She watched a large number of undead warriors rushing up the "Bone Avenue", so she shouted loudly: "That's the way Hammer warriors, attack and crush these hybrids! "
"Kill!" The sounds echoed through the entire Iron Fist castle. The strong men with huge hammers behind the shield wall of the Guards of the Legion guards raised their arms and smashed them towards the undead soldiers who rushed up. In the past, the appearance of these hammers was different. Many or even just a large iron block tied with rope to a thick wooden stick. However, such a simple and rough weapon is very effective for the undead warrior. Often when such a hammer goes down, a bone-bone warrior will be smashed and completely lost its fighting power, which is much more effective than cutting their hands and feet with a sword or shooting them with arrows.
Among these warriors armed with huge iron hammers, there are several dwarves and hundreds of meters of orcs. Their power is much greater than that of their human comrades. Not only do the weapons on their hands appear heavier, but they are often so simple. When he smashed it, he directly smashed many of the undead fighters in front of him, breaking their limbs and flying around, which immediately relieved the pressure of his comrades.
These dwarves were the craftsmen brought by the dwarf king Reynolds. They originally helped Cassano to cast weapons, but when the undead legion arrived, these dwarves all took up weapons and went to the warriors. As for the orcs, they are more like fish, because for these green-skinned creatures, their life is only fighting and honor. After naturalizing Cassano, they are desperate that they can no longer be like a warrior. The battle continued like that, but it didn't take long for the Legion of the Undead to launch a battle to invade Cassano. This made these orcs' hearts excited, and naturally hesitated to raise all kinds of weapons they could find. Towards the enemy.
The battle situation is so monotonous, the soldiers of the Guard Corps first use a shield to block the attack of the undead, and then the comrades with heavy weapons behind them smash these undead, followed by the second wave of offense, the third wave of offense ... These undead were originally Roughly crafted products, the lich that made them will summon all the dead creatures buried deep underground along the way with undead magic, originally intended to use their numerical advantages, of course, it is impossible to use a series of secret methods like the three masters of Druid The rituals were corrupted and degraded, so the fighting power of these undead warriors was far less than when they were alive. They had no weapons or only the simplest bone weapons on their hands. Of course, it was difficult to pose too much threat to the defenders of Cassano.
But this does not mean that this huge number of undead aggressors has no lethality. Their number is really too large. During the six days of attacking the Iron Fist castle, at least more than 15 million undead creatures were sent by their lich masters. The battlefield, and almost all of them were destroyed under the walls of the Iron Fist Castle, otherwise there would be no bones.
The most immediate consequence of such a large number of undead is that the fatigue of Cassano's defenders has skyrocketed. A strong warrior will never feel uncomfortable when he hits a hammer once, but when he swings 100 times in a row like this, he naturally feels the exhaustion of physical strength. If he never swings continuously for 1,000 times 10,000 times ... then even the most powerful soldiers will also feel tired and hungry. If there is a mistake in these 1,000 or 10,000 slams, they will inadvertently be injured by undead creatures, even if it is just one A small wound will also double his energy. Eventually, he will lose his combat power because of exhaustion of his physical strength. He can only let the enemy slaughter. This is the countless elite troops in the history of mankind. The only reason they were engulfed by the army of undead invaded by their contemporaries was that they were not killed, but were exhausted alive in despair.
Now Adela is also facing such a dilemma. The 100,000 soldiers in her hand have only 60,000 left, but there is no news of the reinforcements from the Imperial Capital. When she and Vivian changed positions last night, because they were too Tired and unable to fall asleep, I also heard many bad rumors while visiting the city, especially the Iron Fist Castle has been under siege for 6 days, but Cassano's overlord Ryan has never appeared, which has left many choices The Cassano people's hearts were shaken. If it wasn't for the undead to have surrounded the entire city, and they knew that once they let the undead enter the city, it would be a dead end. Perhaps the riots would have happened long ago.
Arad was anxiously thinking about countermeasures, but his eyes were carefully observing signs of undead positions in the distance. According to human records over the years and observations during this time, Adela has been able to confirm the general pattern of the Undead Legion. These summoned undead creatures are naturally controlled by the lich who directly called them. Every lich Different mana, the number of troops you can control is different, and each time the Undead Legion attacks the Iron Fist Castle, only a lich will lead the attack. When the lich ’s strength is exhausted, This was made up by another lich, and this short period of time was a rare rest time for the Cassano defenders.
Adela had not thought about leading one of the most elite troops to attack the lich in charge. Fernando I used this method 200 years ago to successfully defeat the undead army at that time, but now the lich outside the iron fist castle will be around There are all kinds of guards, some are huge monsters that are assembled, some are pale men in tuxedos, and some liches come up and put a hundred meters around the center directly. The overlapping bone traps, if Adela dare to venture into the absolute path will definitely go.
