Lord of Lowland

Chapter 26 Defending the City

Sandro didn't mean to be angry when he heard Lin Dong's ridicule, he just responded lightly: "I have tried my best, there are legend-level powerhouses in the city, and I managed to escape back with my life. The one who cooperated with us The deputy official has been slaughtered, I'm afraid things will be a little tricky."

After hearing Sandro's words, Lin Dong froze. There are legendary masters in the city. In his eyes, the value of this army might not be comparable to the four terrifying knights brought out by Sandro.Now that the entire army of the terrifying knights has been wiped out, and Sandro is seriously injured, I'm afraid there really are strong people in the city.

Thinking of this, Lin Dong's heart became uneasy. This time, he brought out the soldiers and horses privately. The lord didn't know about it. Now there is a legend-level powerhouse in the city, which is simply bad news.All of a sudden, I was caught in a dilemma. If I continued to stay here, once that legendary-level powerhouse got angry and wiped out the entire army, I'm afraid I would not be able to survive.If he retreated, if Sandro was trying to scare him, wouldn't he be fooled by this kid in vain?The lord thought that it was not a day or two since the body of the marquis was transformed.If you can complete it yourself, it will definitely be a great achievement.

Lin Dong finally thought about it, and was really unwilling to retreat. The fastest Andean warhorse of the human kingdom's reinforcements also needed 3 days to arrive, and he might still be able to snatch it.Thinking about the plan, Lin Dong smiled and said to Sandro: "Sandro himself is incompetent, he buried all the master's terrifying knights in the city, and now he is exaggerating the enemy's strength here to mess with our army. I Can't believe it."

After Sandro heard it, he knew that Lindong took his advice as a wind in his ears, and he and Lindong had always been at odds, and if he continued to persuade him, it might have a counterproductive effect, so he said: "Since Master Lindong is so confident, I will I didn’t say anything, but if something goes wrong with the troops, don’t say I didn’t warn you.” After speaking, Sandro seemed to be walking outside.

"Do you want to go back to Diya?" Lin Dong asked casually when he saw that Sandro was leaving the army

"No, there is a hidden ruins nearby. I am trying to find a way to get in and find some things I need," Sandro said and disappeared from Winter's sight.

"This kid doesn't pay attention to me at all. One day I will kill you." After cursing Sandro viciously for a few words, Lin Dong began to think about the problems he was facing now. Originally, he wanted to The idea is very simple, that is, I and all the ghosts and vampires I brought flew to the city wall first, and forcibly opened the gap, so that the skeleton army can enter the city, so that they can quickly capture it.This is not the standard way of siege of the undead, but when the enemy is weak and we are strong, this method is the most concise and the most effective with the lowest consumption. But if the opponent has a legendary powerhouse, it is completely different. Throw yourself in a trap and give away your head.In the end, he could only decide that he would not go to the front line to participate in the battle first, and send an army of skeletons to attack first. Once he found a legendary figure appearing on the battlefield, Lin Dong decided to run for his life immediately. After thinking about the fighting method, Lin Dong ordered the troops to continue to rest, no, For the tireless undead army, Zhien said that it is to continue to wait, waiting for the moment when the midnight undead army is the strongest.

After mobilizing during the day, Cecil gathered all the members of the mercenary team under the city wall for assembly. The quality of Sanders' mercenary team was extremely low, and the highest level except for Sanders himself were three-year-olds. The template for a soldier at level 300 doesn't even have a template for taking office in a temple.The bigger problem is that among the [-] mercenaries, there are only a few dozen mercenaries in the [-]s and [-]s. They are the same people Henry used to besiege Dussel. Half of these people were injured in that battle.

The rest are all civilian templates of level 10,000 or [-]. Seeing this kind of scumbag army, Cecil suddenly felt his head grow big. Relying on these hundreds of people to resist tens of thousands or even [-]+ skeleton army Seale was not sure at all.

Recruitment orders have been issued, and 4000 adult men among the 500 citizens have joined the temporarily established militia group. However, the quality of these people is obviously not as good as that of the mercenary group. Cecil even suspected that these people were two against one. Whether they can beat a skeleton can only be done by asking them to make some preparations for combat.The doctor over there is taking the time to treat Sanders' injury. There is no movement from the undead now. It is estimated that they will launch an attack in the early morning when the undead activity is strongest.

At 12 o'clock that night, even a torch was lit on the city wall for the first time, illuminating the inside and outside of the city wall like daylight. Siege.

When they reached the city gate, the undead army began to hit the city gate with their bodies. One skeleton hit the city gate and was smashed to pieces, and the other continued to hit it. Then, in turn, the undead army rushed towards the city gate regardless of casualties, but the city gate was blocked. The city gates are all huge boulders weighing several tons, and the impact of the undead is just to tickle him.Of course, hitting the city gate was only a small part of the skeleton army, and more skeletons climbed up the city wall.The city wall of this small city is completely made of the most basic wall soil, memory climbing, even if this kind of skeleton does not have large equipment, it can completely climb on the city wall.

Of course, when many skeletons were climbing, one accidentally fell and fell to pieces, but more skeletons climbed up one after another.

The militia group on the city wall began to lift the prepared stones and smash them down, and the skeletons that were hit fell down one after another. 300 mercenary groups were deployed in a 1-kilometer-long defense line, basically 3 meters long. Configure one to deal with the skeletons that have already climbed the city wall. Cecil took all the members of the elite mercenary regiment of 3 to 1000 levels and divided them into [-] mobile units, running back and forth on the [-]-meter city wall. Where to block the gap, where there are many skeletons attacking the tower, go to kill the skeletons.

Don't say that Cecil is fighting the undead army for the first time. Everyone is fighting the undead army for the first time. The strength of the undead is far higher than that of the opponent's skeleton, but the number advantage of the undead is indeed completely impossible for them to match.

It has to be said that Cecil's arrangement is still very effective. The skeleton army carried out the siege battle for less than two hours, and lost more than 3000 skeletons but did not open the situation at all, but Cecil gradually became worried. Ya's undead troops went forward regardless of the consequences, but their own troops had no backup power. The physical strength of the troops was a big problem after such a fierce battle. Not to mention the physical strength of the troops, even their own physical strength had already consumed 1/3. It stands to reason that this kind of The morale of the soldiers in the rear has already begun to collapse after such a big battle in front, but the opponent is an undead army. As long as the intelligent creature commanding this army feels that the loss is acceptable, then the undead can continue to attack.I'm afraid it will be even worse in an hour.

After another half an hour, the situation got worse. Many mercenaries had reached the red line of physical strength, and many militiamen who were moving rocks down could not even move the rocks. They fought back, and some even wounded mercenaries on top of the wall. The pressure on Cecil's city defense was already increasing.Seeing this, Cecil immediately implemented the prepared plan.

The gate of the city was opened, and when the skeletons were about to drive in, a blast of holy light came out, and all the skeleton soldiers at the gate were blown away.Cecil rushed out on horseback, followed by Andy and an elite force of mercenaries.Cecil took the lead and was invincible. The skeletons blocking the way were almost one by one, or even one by one. Andy was even more powerful. A fireball could often knock down a skeleton army.In an instant, a bloody path was smashed out of the skeletons under the city wall, and the group of people sprinkled the sesame oil they had brought with them as they ran.

At this time, what fell on the city wall was not stones, but rolling logs one after another, and it was not manpower, but a pre-made mechanism. The rolling logs instantly emptied the skeletons that were still climbing the wall, but Such a high density of logs cannot last long because of the limited number. After 10 minutes, the thousands of logs prepared were put in.The skeleton stepped on the rolling log and continued to climb the wall, but they slipped and fell one after another. It turned out that the rolling log was also splashed with sesame oil.All the undead skeleton soldiers who stepped on the log were slipped.But the opponent was an army of undead after all, and the skeletons in the back stepped on the corpses of the skeletons in front without paying any attention.

At this time, Cecil's Rangers had already circled the battlefield within 500 meters of the city, and all the sesame oil they bought from two rich merchants in the city had been completely exhausted.Cecil quickly withdrew the Rangers back into the city, and as the gate closed, everyone returned to the tower to wipe out the skeleton soldiers who had been put on the city wall because of the Rangers' harassment.

Andy sat on the tower and entered a state of meditation. Cecil opened fire and spared no effort to buy him time.Twenty minutes later, Andy, who had finished his meditation, roared, and two wings seemed to grow behind him, just like the one in the Temple of War, but this time the wings became more obvious as Andy grew.With a wave of Andy's finger, a powerful fire spell was cast down the city. A powerful fire dragon pierced through all the skeletons in the city and was still expanding outward.All the skeletons that were close to the city wall or attacking did not feel that they were burning.

Andy's fire is an elemental attack, which is different from natural fire, but the high temperature caused is the same, and the high temperature immediately spreads the burning seeds in the audience. The militiamen on the city wall threw down the torches that had been prepared, The logs below the city immediately started burning crazily.

Andy immediately released another wild wind spell. As the wind and fire became stronger and stronger, the place where Cecil passed by just now was burned by the pine oil underground, and the entire battlefield under the city wall fell into a frenzy. sea ​​of ​​flames.
