Chapter 127
The battle was won, and the battle was won.
I don't know whether it was out of fear or because Su Yue killed Cedric Charles and was shocked by the dragon knight leader Spencer, the 20,000+ human empire rebels who lost their leader became more brave.
He knew very well what this meant. The morale of the rebels of the human empire was about to be disintegrated by them.
In the civilization of the long river of human history, there is a saying to describe that things will turn around when they reach the extreme. In Su Yue's eyes, the group of imperial rebels in front of him seemed to be on the verge of a last gasp and a complete collapse of morale.
The imperial rebels, waving flags and holding long swords, seemed to attack Canaan's territory fiercely.
They even tried their best to show that they were going to surround Su Yue, the Canaanite lord.
They shouted loudly to vent their arrogance, but it gave them a sense of weakness.
"Boom!"
The Soth Star Griffin swooped down, and Su Yue's Sleipnir white horse, like Dilu crossing the mountains, quickly retreated under the attack of the Son of Sigmar and the Imperial Musketeers.
"Stop him!"
"Don't let him run away."
In the eyes of the imperial rebels, it seemed that exchanging one for one with Cedric Charles, the shepherd leader, was not an unacceptable price, but when they saw Su Yue's figure quickly evacuating the front line.
Morale finally ushered in the first turning point.
Lord's log: "You have completed a battle, enemy morale -15."
The Empire Silver Bullet Musketeer fired a barrage of gunfire at Su Yue's back, but the scene seemed a bit futile.
The bullets shot towards Su Yue, but they were all blocked by the broad wings of the Soth Star Griffin.
The Empire rebels rushed towards the walls of the Canaan Territory like black locusts.
The scene of corpses and blood splashing appeared in front of Su Yue.
After the death of the shepherd leader Cedric, Andy Arelfunan immediately took over the command of the Empire rebels, which resulted in the Empire rebels not collapsing directly because of the loss of their leader.
But another trouble also appeared. The retreat of the Canaan lord caused their morale to collapse across the board.
Andy Arelfunan said: "We must capture the walls of the Canaan territory as soon as possible, otherwise our morale will collapse. Heywood, immediately mobilize all the catapults to attack the southern town. Intelligence shows that their people have already gone to Qiwell City in large numbers overnight."
"..."
Andy Arelfunan is a very smart guy. He was not scared by the death of Cedric, the shepherd. Instead, he realized that Su Yue's decision to attack was definitely not a routine move. According to the habits or habits of the White Horse Lord in the past, he could not take the initiative to attack and kill the enemy general to gain an advantage on the defensive side.
Andy Arelfunan's eyes narrowed with a dangerous light, and he said: "There should be only one correct answer. The Canaan territory is empty, and there are not many soldiers and horses in their territory."
"...Otherwise, why would he take the initiative to attack and take this risk?"
In order to appease morale, Andy Arelfunan immediately issued a high reward to his troops.
"Lord Andy Arelfunan has issued a bounty order. Anyone who kills Canaan Lord Su Yue will be rewarded with 100,000 gold."
"Kill... Kill him!!"
A large number of imperial rebels screamed upon hearing the news.
The morale of the imperial rebels led by Andy Arelfunan began to pick up. At the same time, his voice spread throughout the woods outside Canaan: "The reason why the enemy White Horse Lord attacked the generals is because their troop reserves are insufficient. Now is the best time to defeat them. Soldiers, don't be scared off by them. The guys in front of you at this moment, Canaan at this moment, have already been defeated, and we have already won the victory! ! Victory and honor are difficult to obtain, but they are right in front of us, kill them."
"!!!"
"Kill!!"
The 20,000 imperial iron cavalry and steel torrents that moved slowly like locusts were encouraged by Andy Arelfunan's preaching, and moved the siege ladders in a black mass and attacked Canaan.
The siege ladder tilted forward, and the sound of arrow rain and catapults breaking through the air came from afar. A dozen soldiers holding the imperial weapons were instantly blown into a bloody mist...
Su Yue frowned and watched the morale of the imperial rebels recover:
"The leader of the Eastern Expedition is probably not a good person. I have killed the general, and he
It can actually raise morale again?"
Europa said beside him: "Do you want me to kill him?"
Su Yue shook his head and smiled: "We are indeed short of troops, all of them are ragtag troops, but who says that ragtag troops can't withstand the attack of the imperial rebels? In ancient times, there were heroic deeds of a hundred warriors defending a city for seven or eight days, and 300 Spartans could defend a city... What are we missing?"
Su Yue said: "How many militias can be mobilized?"
Eric next to him smiled and said: "It should be more than 3,000 people. "
Su Yue immediately dispatched a large number of second-level blind warriors, wolf fighters, and jackals to block the northern entrance of the city wall... His sight jumped to the high place, the position of the catapults, on the towers, the catapults had their own exclusive high positions, and the dwarf soldiers were dragging boulders.
Su Yue aimed at the position of the leader of the imperial rebels and fired a volley of catapults.
The cavemen and big-eared monsters quickly spread out horizontally in front of him, like long steel dragons. Su Yue laughed. In the battle to defend the city, he immediately picked up the bow and arrow and began to aim and shoot below.
"Let the militia also take the bow and arrow to shoot. We lack everything, but not money. "
Even if their shooting accuracy was not enough, they could still cause certain casualties to the enemy. At the same time, Su Yue arranged for kerosene and rolling stones and other city defense resources and threw them down frantically.
The front-line troops of the imperial rebels at this moment have already pressed against the city wall. People who have not experienced siege warfare cannot understand the fear and the horror of life and death.
Su Yue felt cold in his heart, and the kerosene was burning under the city wall.
The position of the imperial rebels in the distance roared at them, and the entire city wall seemed to shake. A large number of catapults and catapults cast pieces of expanding boulder shadows on the city wall and inside the territory of Canaan.
"Boom! ! "
More than forty cave dwellers were killed on the spot.
Su Yue immediately realized that he had to deal with their catapult positions, but the trouble now was that his air force - the number of griffins and Pegasus troops - might not be enough to attack the enemy's catapult positions.
Napoleon's favorite thing was bombardment, and he personally controlled the artillery positions.
In that crucial battle.
240 cannons took the initiative to attack the enemy's 180 cannons and suppressed them. The power of the catapults in the battlefield of the Turin world was consistent with that of the artillery. Because they were standing on high ground, Su Yue immediately dispatched 23 tier 6 deep divers of the ocean heavy gunners to enter the highest point of the fortress and bombard the imperial troops in the distance.
Due to Frederick's global consultant bonus, the effect of "Soldier King +35% attack" resulted in an astonishingly terrible lethality, and remarkable results!!
"What is that? ?"
"Bombardment..."
"It's the heavy artillery of the empire. "
"No... I have seen the heavy artillery of the Empire, but it is not so terrible..."
Hundreds of people were blown to pieces by the dense 6th-level Innsmouth vine cannons, and their bodies were completely torn apart... The imperial cavalry had just dismounted from their horses, and turned around to find that the horses behind them had exploded into bloody circles, and the terrifying iron ball shells with toxins fell not far from them, raising huge smoke and dust.
155 first-level Spear Clan Rats, 375 second-level Storm Ratmen, 94 third-level Plague Ratmen... were arranged by Su Yue on the right wing. A small number of imperial cavalry attendants were also recruited by Su Yue. Following the 5th-level imperial cavalry instructor Walter, they were throwing logs and stones frantically at the bottom of the city wall.
Bai Yue said: "Boss, we are here too."
Lord's Log: "Ailishi transferred the command of 275 human imperial soldiers to you. Do you accept it? "
Su Yue laughed... The soldiers in his territory were indeed a little insufficient, but he still had the Chosen Players behind him.
Zhou Zhuo's dark elf troops began to support Su Yue's Canaan territory. When one side is in trouble, all sides will support it.
Bai Yue, Zhan Ji, Sun Zhao, Mi Bei'er, Gu Yu and other players from the Canaan United Front Group brought nearly 1,500 fresh troops to join the city defense of Canaan...
"Fuck... So many imperial rebels, so fierce so early in the morning?"
Bai Yue was shocked. He was originally a lord player who specialized in repairs. At this moment, he began to run south. A "boom" sound came from his feet, and a large part of the city wall collapsed. "Damn, they have too many catapults... If they keep bombing like this, I'm afraid the situation will be bad..."
Part of the city wall appeared in ruins. Jin Xiuer mobilized a large number of farmers and began to perform traditional skills - repairing while fighting.
"Charge... Charge up! ! Defeat Canaan, and the Eastern Expedition will completely liberate the entire Batto Empire! !”
The Imperial rebels screaming and howling
The troops built more than a dozen siege ladders, and the first batch of troops had begun to climb up to the city wall... A large number of corpses fell to the ground from the surroundings of the ladders. Many powerful imperial free militias were able to stand up and continue fighting after falling.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."
The long-range firepower of the imperial rebels, although it was low-altitude against the enemy at high altitude, still suppressed the long-range troops of the Canaan Army. No matter how much Su Yue hoped that his subordinates' long-range power was strong enough, it was a group of miscellaneous cards, even with the support of the player lords, it seemed a bit useless.
The only one who performed well was the second-level investigators of Innsmouth. They held single-shot muskets, raised their right arms high, and fired at the ground one by one. Although they were wearing light armor, they became the only long-range troops that were not suppressed by the imperial rebels.
"My Cthulhu troops are reliable."
"Military flag: The military expenditure of your Cthulhu evil god army is permanently reduced by 70%."
"Foreign God Lord: The combat effectiveness of your Cthulhu god soldiers is +40%."
Su Yue felt the smell of gunpowder. The dense imperial spearmen took the lead in climbing the city wall, and then were chased down, and fell into a siege and defense battle.
Europa stood beside Su Yue without any movement. She knew that the lord was thinking now. His man's profile was very handsome. Europa fell into an obsession with him.
According to past experience, the taller the city wall and the more special the terrain, the easier it is to defend and attack the city wall. Under the desperate resistance of the enemy army, it is the best choice to cut off food and siege without attacking, and wait for the collapse of the city. In ancient times, such a collapse and siege without attacking can even last for one or two months.
After all, the intensity of Su Yue's offensive to defeat the northern fortress is only a minority.
Anxiety is the norm on the battlefield.
The Canaan siege war at this moment fell into an anxious state.
Andy Arelfunan didn't believe that the soldiers under the command of Canaan Lord Su Yue were all very powerful. He hid in the dense forest, fearing that he would be discovered by Su Yue and stage another drama of capturing the king first.
But he didn't expect that a group of first- and second-level miscellaneous troops could actually resist the attack of the elite iron guards of the empire? ?
"Why did he use the second-level miscellaneous troops and non-human troops as elites? The strength is beyond the normal range..."
"Their second-level blind warriors can actually stop the fourth-level son of Sigma of the empire?"
The scene of the elite fighting against the miscellaneous troops, fighting for every inch of the city wall, shocked Andy Arelfunan and all the imperial rebels.
And there was no individual sign of retreat and defeat.
In war, there are always individuals who want to retreat, flee from the battlefield, or make hesitant and slow moves. At this time, the supervisory team needs to reprimand him, or even execute and encourage him, but Canaan's troops give people a sense of calmness like a dead army of undead... In the eyes of each miscellaneous monster, in the thick clouds and the dark smoke, it is like a hard rock sharpened on the river bank, even if it is washed by tsunamis, rainstorms, and the ebb and flow of the tide, it still stands.
Frightened expressions constantly emerge from the eyes of the soldiers of the empire.
Although Andy Arelfunan boosted morale... But when they found that Canaan's resistance and counterattack speed were contrary to the images of lack of troops, "a group of miscellaneous troops", "victory is within reach, easy to get", etc., their morale, hunger, fatigue, and injuries can't help but dominate and have the upper hand on the battlefield.
"...Damn Canaan...Aren't they...a bunch of ragtag troops?"
"They actually blocked our elite empire. This...this is impossible!!!"
Su Yue seemed to be in a state of anxiety.
For the imperial rebels and the rebel leader Andy Arelfunan, it actually caused a huge psychological impact.
"The imperial cavalry in the forest can't hide anymore, they must attack immediately!!"
"Understood..."
In front of Andy Arelfunan, a large number of soldiers holding white flags appeared. He gritted his teeth and said, "For the glory of innocent IV, for glorious revenge...for the secular rule of the mortal world, we must defeat the Canaan territory."
The name of innocent IV was used, but the degree of morale increase was limited. A large number of elite imperial cavalry nobles appeared in the forest. At this time, the morale of the front line was stabilized by Andy Arelfunan.
Impact
Like waves, one section after another, one wave after another, when the previous wave has not yet ended, the next wave can hardly cross the previous wave, and can only crawl like a worm, forced to pile up under the city wall, forming a cruel group of people waiting to die.
"Catapult!!"
"Boom!!"
Four towering ancient trees were broken by the catapults of the Canaan territory in the distance.
Andy Arelfornan's face was in a mess, with a branch splashed on it, and the branch pierced his ear, and blood flowed on the right side of his face... But he remained motionless, staring at the distance intently...
"Before today, Canaan must be conquered... Otherwise, the death of Cedric Charles, the chief shepherd, will be difficult to explain..."
"Sir, the enemy's resistance is fierce, we... I'm afraid we need to find another way."
Andy Arelfornan said: "Launch an attack on the West City. We have too many people in the North City in front of them."
"Understood."
Andy Arelfornan knew that Canaan's garrison troops were not as many as theirs. If they wanted to suppress the number of people, they had to attack from multiple directions to dilute the total number of enemy troops.
"They went to the West City."
Su Yue smiled and said: "Troublesome guys."
A large number of Imperial 4th-level Sigmar's Sons, Imperial Great Swordsmen, appeared in the West City area and launched a fierce attack on Canaan's territory.
A large number of vultures were circling in the sky. They were eager to pick up the bodies of the soldiers on the ground and take them back to the vulture nests for a feast. However, due to the threat of war from the Canaan Griffins and Pegasus troops, they could only watch thousands of foods being scattered on the battlefield and making anxious cries.
The more difficult this battle was, the less Su Yue used the trump cards of Europa and Abraham, the two S-level subordinates. On the contrary, he wanted to see where the limit of his own troops was.
————————————
“Attack, defeat them!!!”
Malekith’s crazy voice came from outside the city... A large number of high elf troops looked at the “human lord” in the distance in shock...
“The empire still has the strength and troops to stop us from invading Qiwell City?”
“This is not normal...”
Under the influence of Malekith’s advanced tactics and master-level leadership, the 5,500+ imperial troops, just arrived at Qiwell City, brought confidence and hope to the lord of Qiwell City, Austin, and the people.
The archer lord of the high elves, Theranmar Regond, looked at the troops of Qiwell City in the distance with suspicion... They had previously declared war on the Batto Empire because of the death of Tyrone Jorge.
But less than two hours after the declaration of war, the defense of Qiwell City became extremely strict.
A large number of imperial troops appeared on the city wall. In addition to the human fishermen in the nearby small fishing villages and the towns that began to evacuate their personnel, they were attacked not only by the strange Canaanite demon creatures (Cthulhu Innsmouth people) in the ocean.
They also suffered an obstruction and defeat in the forest and land troops? ?
Several 1000+ troops of the vanguard.
Being defeated by the enemy one after another, the arrogant Thranmar Regond could not accept this humiliation at all. He immediately launched an attack and attack on the city of Qiwell, but encountered an ambush by the enemy lord in the field battle...
"Who is the enemy lord?"
"No name."
"It seems to be a general of the Batto Empire wearing armor and a mask..."
"???"
The image of Malekith was described,
Thranmar Regond fell into confusion.
The elite troops of the third-level Maslan Heir Heavy Guard x853, the third-level Tal Archer x525, and the fifth-level High Elf Heth Swordmaster x267 were attacked by the enemy from left to right, and the right wing was almost in a state of collapse.
Especially the knight lord in heavy armor, who led the empire's cavalry, hunters, and militia, launched a surprise attack on them at a fast speed, with ruthless and decisive means. His textbook-like combat qualities shocked people to the point of losing their minds.
Before they could come to their senses, the enemy had already retreated in an orderly manner, as if they were mocking the high elf, Thranmar Regond, and what made him even more frightened and puzzled was that the other party seemed to have a deep understanding of their actions and the preparation plan of the army.
The time they chose to attack happened to be the time when the high elves were preparing their troops and the troops were in chaos... This caused Thranmar Regond to even suspect that there was a ghost inside.
What he didn't know was that.
Malekith himself was betraying the High Elf Empire.
Before the founding of the Kingdom of the High Elf, he was a strong contender for the Phoenix King of the High Elf. He himself was the crown prince of the High Elf. From his own perspective?
Would he not understand the traditions and status of the High Elf troops?
Any troop has its own traditions.
Malekith, once the ruler of the High Elf, is now the Great Witch King of the Dark Elf and an S-level horror hero. His first round of attacks severely taught Thranmar Regond a lesson, causing nearly 3,000+ casualties, which is already a very exaggerated number. He even defeated three elven advance corps attacking from the High Elf Remire and the "Menishni" Forest when the Imperial troops suffered only less than 200+ casualties.
At this moment, Thranmar Regonde inexplicably felt that something was wrong...
"Canaan..."
"A group of isolated troops actually took the initiative to attack the Elf Empire??"
When capable people occupy high positions, the general trend is formed involuntarily. Whether it is Huntington in the Northern Fortress or Malekith in the city of Qiwell outside Balayamakan in the southwest, they are all monsters that the dwarves and the empire can hardly imagine...
And the opponents of the Northern Fortress, the Southern Elves, and the rebels within the Empire are the Empire against Su Yue; the High Elves against the former High Elf Crown Prince and now the traitor, Malekith; the dwarves of the Northern Jinzun Tribe against the resurrected Huntington William Frederick II, the chaotic human lord.
Judging from the lineup alone, Canaan seems to have been invincible for a long time.
But is it really that simple?
On that day, Malekith immediately received an important military intelligence from the scouts near the city of Qiwell. More than 18,000 wood elves bypassed the city of Qiwell and headed for the territory of Canaan.
Malekith roared: "Immediately pass the message to Lord Su Yue, quickly... immediately!!" The griffin quickly passed the 50-kilometer and 100-kilometer road and passed the message to Canaan...
A large number of wood elves secretly launched a surprise attack on Canaan from the distant forest of Menishni... The High Elf Empire showed a terrifying pressure of crushing level from the beginning...
"Boss... Trouble!!"
"Wood elves, wood elves also launched an attack on us... 18,000 wood elves appeared behind the city of Qiwell."
Su Yue's face turned green when he heard the news.
The wood elves are said to believe in the magic goddess Aisha... has special troops such as the 4th level eternal guard, 3rd to 6th level tree demons, 4th level giant eagles, 4th level war dancers, and 5th level wild forest rangers. He is now in a stalemate and anxious state with the imperial rebels. At present, it seems that the only answer points to one goal.
Su Yue: "We must fight quickly and get rid of the imperial rebels before we can calmly face the attack of the wood elves..."
Europa said: "What should we do?"
Su Yue said: "Their morale is currently the biggest loophole and flaw. Once the morale of the imperial rebels collapses, their troops will become our prisoners, and my prisoners and subordinates are absolutely loyal. Using this, we can create a window period, and even show weakness to the enemy and wipe out the wood elves..."
"We have to take the initiative to attack."
"Understood."
Su Yue immediately adjusted his tactics. He must not continue to stalemate, otherwise he will be defeated if he is attacked from both sides. He has to give up Canaan's territory and retreat to the northern fortress of the dwarves, or the city of Qiwell, to regain the lost territory. He is not prepared to follow the script. Canaan must not fall.
——————————
A huge number of tree demons, walking with heavy steps, are surrounded by vines and spikes. The 3rd-level vicious tree demons, covered with purple spores, release pieces of toxins while walking. They are the elders of the High Elf Kingdom of Krado and a species that lives longer than the High Elf.
The wood elves have an absolute advantage in lifespan compared to the High Elves and even the entire continent. The trees grow tall and many become spirits. They are influenced by the magic wind of the elves and become the advantages of the current Wood Elf society and race. Their disadvantage is that they move slowly, but the speed of the giant eagle, the manticore, and the vanguard is normal.
The reason why they intend to attack Canaan is naturally because "the Kingdom of Krado High Elf has previously issued a declaration of war to the Batto Empire." As a population of wood elves, if they want to expand, they naturally need to capture the territories of other races. This is definitely an excellent opportunity for the lord named Dursun Los.
A large number of elk troops, riding on the backs of huge stags with long horns
Later, the 4th-level Woodland Cavalry, the 5th-level Giant Stag Knights, and even the 6th-level Kunos Wild Hunt Cavalry were following the Wood Elf Lord Durson Los to march towards Canaan.
"Where has Lord Bertran arrived?"
Lord Bertran is the lord of the Wood Elf fleet that escaped from Balayamakan before, and he was also the one who initiated the attack plan and attacked Canaan.
"They are also outflanking with the follow-up troops, with a number of more than 6,000."
