Eight hundred and thirtieth eight chapters kill a dawn
Only when war actually comes, people will realize its horror, just like a bloodthirsty monster, devouring everything!
"The response is so fast!"
Standing outside the main city of Busk, looking at the closed city gates and the soldiers who had been deployed on the city walls, Downton sighed. As expected, there was no way to sneak in directly.
"Master, attack?"
Blackhand and Arnold couldn't wait to join the battle, both wanting to win the honor of being the first to scale the city wall.
"Wait a moment and let your subordinates take the time to rest!"
Downton is riding on the back of the Green Goblin, tapping the saddle with his riding crop. The rhythm is clear. Listening carefully, you can hear that it is a country tune called "My Girl".
Soon, there was a commotion at the top of the city. A group of big shots, protected by hundreds of guards, appeared on the city wall to observe the enemy's situation and boost morale.
"Is that the native Duke?"
Following the identification of his subordinates, Duke Busque saw Downton. With the help of the monocular, he could even see the hair on his face clearly.
"So young!"
"You want to defeat Busque with such a small number of troops and achieve victory in one battle? Is he driven crazy by the bad battle situation?"
"I think he might as well call him Barbarian Duke. He's just thinking about muscles. He's so stupid!"
Almost all the high-ranking officials in the main city came. They originally planned to escape through the secret passage immediately, but after seeing Downton's soldiers, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Formed behind Downton were a barbarian regiment of a thousand men, a demon man regiment of nearly a thousand men, and three hundred black-hand heavy cavalry. At this time, they were sitting on the ground eating and drinking in small groups.
"Isn't this guy known as the Native Duke? Why don't you see the Hilly Native Corps?"
Some nobles joked.
"Maybe those ogres were too stupid and got lost?"
Someone made a joke and instantly caused a roar of laughter. The troops were too small to take down the main city. So after their safety was guaranteed, they had the time to ridicule and venom.
"Look at the costumes of those rangers, are they dark elves?"
There was a big nobleman who was in the slave business and he had a keen eye and saw through the lies and reality of the rangers at once.
"No way? If we were to rank the extreme racists in the world, Drow would definitely be in the top three. Will they listen to a human?"
Before Busk could finish speaking, he suddenly shut up because he saw the breeze blew off the hoods of several rangers, revealing the beautiful faces hidden underneath, especially the pointed ears unique to the elves, which were even more eye-catching.
abnormal.
hiss!
There were gasps all over the city wall. Not only the nobles, but also the soldiers subconsciously took a few steps forward to get a better look at them.
Downton snapped his fingers, and the rangers took off their hoods in unison.
At this moment, the blood pressure of everyone on the city wall was soaring rapidly, and all the nobles stared at the drow with red eyes.
"Get rich!"
"Yes, a dark elf can be sold for at least 10 million. If it is a virgin, the price will be even higher."
"Don't even think about being a virgin. Who doesn't know that Drow is a slut?"
The nobles were talking, and then they laughed obscenely. The soldiers nearby looked at the beautiful faces and couldn't help but fantasize about whether they would have a chance to enjoy the night if they were caught.
"Old ghost Busque, do you dare to go out of the city and fight with me?"
Downton exhaled and shouted towards the city wall.
"idiot!"
"Silly Que!"
There was a lot of abuse, who had lost his mind and would leave the city undefended and go out to fight in the field.
"If you don't fight me, I won't be able to defeat this main city, but I will retreat. By then you won't even be able to capture a drow prisoner."
Downton joked.
"Duke, don't agree to him. These guys are all cavalry. If they are used to attack the city, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties!"
The commander of the directly affiliated corps urged.
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
Busk glared at his cronies. In fact, he was very moved. Downton's troops were too few. By mobilizing the entire city, he could gather at least 50,000 soldiers, which would be enough to suffocate him.
"That's the Dark Ranger. If he wants to run away, our Rangers probably won't even be able to see his shadow."
The nobles are so distressed that they want to vomit blood. If they catch them all, how much will they be worth? Even if they don't sell them, keeping them at home and enjoying them is still a wonderful choice.
"Since you are as timid as mice, how about we duel as a unit of two hundred people? My bet is the dark elves, and I will give you one for every loss."
As soon as Downton finished speaking, the nobles started arguing.
"You can give it a try. Anyway, if you fail, the loss won't be big."
"No, according to the intelligence, Downton's regiment is very powerful. With the same number of people, we will definitely not be able to defeat them."
The leader refused.
"Aren't you the Duke's heavily armed elites? Are you still afraid of this?"
The nobles sneered.
"How about this? How about everyone sending out private soldiers? Together, they can be considered a fighting force that cannot be underestimated!"
Busque suggested that as a noble, as long as you have some strength, which family does not keep private soldiers? This is both a pomp and a guarantee of safety.
Looking at the noisy city, Downton pretended to smile proudly and extended his hand to the female drow riding a black panther next to her.
The female drow responded immediately and held his hand.
Downton used strength to pull her onto the horse's back, then lowered his head and kissed her red lips. Not only that, he also put his hands into the female drow's leather armor and kneaded her plump breasts.
This fragrant and erotic scene instantly silenced the city. Some men looked at the female drow and couldn't help but avoid being suspicious. Instead, they boldly hooked their arms around Downton's neck and kissed him back, and they couldn't help but set up a tent.
Wow!
Downton pulled open the skirt of the female drow's clothes, revealing a small piece of white breasts. The men in the city swallowed their saliva and stretched their necks, eager to see more.
"They won't really do it in public, right?"
"It is said that dark elves are very lewd, it is very possible!"
"Take off!"
"Take off!"
"Take off!"
I don’t know who shouted it first, and then the restless word ‘off’ came together.
"Damn it, everyone go back to their respective defense zones and stop looking at it!"
The regiment leader whipped the soldiers around him with a horsewhip, but it was impossible to stop this collective chaos. After all, the law does not punish the public, and the nobles were also enthusiastic about it and did not say anything yet.
"what sound?"
Duke Busque was a dragon slayer and was not weak in strength. He heard a slight scream, but it was quickly covered up by the soldiers' fanatical shouting. So he didn't pay attention to it.
After a few seconds, the scream became louder, and the leader also heard it. After looking around and finding nothing unusual, he subconsciously looked up at the sky, and then saw a black spot rapidly growing in size in his field of vision, falling down like a meteor.
.
"What is this? Bird poop?"
The leader looked confused, let alone asking others. As soon as this idea came into his mind, the black dot hit the city wall not far away.
boom!
A huge fireball with a radius of ten meters rose up, and a powerful shock wave swept the flames and spread in all directions, like a bulldozer, directly smashing the masonry on the ground, and a piece of it collapsed.
The soldiers around him didn't even utter a scream, their bodies were all in pieces, and they died under the bombing.
Buzz!
Then a huge wave of sound rushed over the city like a tsunami, making everyone's ears buzz and roar instantly.
"Enemy attack!"
After the leader finished shouting, he realized that no one heard him, and they all subconsciously looked towards the direction of the explosion.
"Damn it!"
The regiment leader reacted the fastest. He finally understood that all Downton's actions were to retain the Duke and his party so that the air force could carry out bombing and achieve the tactical goal of total annihilation.
Unfortunately, it was too late. As the first goblin bomb fell, more fell and hit the area where the Duke was.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Groups of fireballs rose up from the city walls, exploding bricks and stones flying and dust drifting, and corpses with broken arms rained down on the open spaces on the outskirts and within the city.
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Drop the bombs, the most powerful bombs!"
Abagon stood on the railing of the Ancient Spear, observing the ground with a monocular while urging the goblin bombardier.
"Correction target, deflected fifteen degrees!"
The rangefinder holds the sight and directs the bombardier according to the impact point of the explosion.
During this year, in order to maximize the advantages of goblin bombs, Downton secretly ordered Abagon to train a goblin bombing unit.
The airship found in the lava realm has a complete set of mechanical manuals, including training methods for goblin bombardiers, so just follow them.
According to conventional tactics, one should throw one shot first to measure the range, but that would inevitably attract the enemy's attention and evade it in time, so Abagong made a desperate choice to bomb a large area.
This year's training was not in vain. The first round of bombing overwhelmed all the high-ranking officials including the Duke of Busque, and the effect was excellent.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bricks and stones were blown away, falling like hailstones, and broken limbs were mixed in. It was as bloody as possible.
When the dust faded, Downton's men looked at the incomplete city wall, as if they were cakes that had been chewed by monsters. They were completely stunned. Even the powerful dwarves were no exception. Under this kind of bombing, even if
Even they can't guarantee that they will escape unscathed.
"I, Di Polo, I was afraid that the sound of the goblin bomb tearing the air would alert the other party. I didn't expect that the action of attracting attention would produce such a natural effect!"
Downton resisted the urge to wipe the sweat from his forehead. If the air force could not blast the gap, he would have no choice but to attack by force. However, he did not expect that the air attack would be so effective.
The entire battlefield fell into deathly silence for an instant.
"Why are you dazed? Attack, rush in, and kill the Duke's people before they run away!"
The God of Cheap has seen the world and yelled directly.
"charge!"
Homer urged loudly, stretched out his elemental arm and patted Downton on the back, knocking him awake.
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Attack with all your strength!" Downton waved his ferocious beast, led the charge, and gave the order for a general attack. However, the fastest ones were the drow rangers, who shot straight at the gap in the city wall with arrows that were like flying off the string.
.
"Quick, shoot arrows, throw rocks, throw rolling logs, stop them!"
The commander who reacted shouted. Unfortunately, the effect was minimal, the soldiers were still recovering from the horrific damage caused by the bombing, and the most terrifying thing was that Busk and his party were all dead.
Continuous dense explosions directly shattered the soul shields of this group of magicians and tore them into pieces. Now that all the top management was gone, the command system was naturally paralyzed.
"We can't let them in, otherwise our family will be ruined!"
Some soldiers shouted and joined the battle spontaneously, but before they could attack, they were shot through the throat by arrows and fell from the city wall.
The rangers have superb shooting skills and can strike at fixed points to drive away dangerous targets as quickly as possible.
"Destroy those catapults!"
As Black Hand shouted, several waves of short-handled throwing axes were thrown.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As soon as the soldiers put the stone bombs on the catapult, the flying ax came over. The fifty-pound weight directly smashed the wooden catapult into tattered firewood.
There was no one on the street, and Downton's troops were running unimpeded.
The citizens hid in their homes early, praying and looking in the direction of the city gate, when dozens of huge roars suddenly erupted. The glass and furniture were shaking, and they didn't understand what happened.
I saw groups of heavily armed cavalry rushing through the streets.
"The city is broken?"
This thought suddenly came to mind, but the citizens couldn't believe it. How long had it been? Even if they climbed through the city gate, it would still take a few hours, right?
"Run faster and get reinforcements!"
A group of security guards rushed out from the corner and were stunned because there was a group of Dark Rangers speeding over from the opposite side.
"kill!"
The security captain subconsciously pulled out his sword, but as soon as he finished shouting, an arrow shot out of his eye socket and penetrated his brain.
Because of the strong force, the tail feathers of the arrow are still trembling.
"Run!"
The security guards were frightened and ran away. However, within five steps, they were all shot to death on the spot.
The rangers whizzed by without even looking at the carcasses of these trash fish.
As long as the security team that is gathering towards the city wall encounters the Western Legion, no one will be spared. Especially those who encounter the Black Hand Heavy Cavalry will die the worst, being trampled into minced meat by the Iron Spine Dragon.
"What are you doing here? Go support my father!"
The Duke's son yelled at the commander of the Guards who was following behind him. These people were very capable in fighting. It would be a waste to hide at home.
"We want to keep you safe."
The leader refused.
"The enemy can't fly in. As long as the city is not broken, we are in great danger." The young master yelled, "What happened to those explosions just now? No, I want to go take a look!"
"no!"
The leader stopped the young master.
"Let me go!"
As soon as the young master said something, he saw the servant rushing in with a worried look on his face, "Master, something bad has happened, the city is broken!"
"What did you say?"
The color drained from the young master's face in an instant, and even the captain looked shocked. However, he quickly regained his composure, drew his machete, rushed to the servant, and chopped off his head.
"you……"
The young master was frightened to death, thinking that the group leader was going to rebel.
"This guy is a spy for the native Duke. If anyone is spreading rumors, he will be killed." After shouting at the servants around him, the leader immediately took the young master's hand and ran to the backyard. At the same time, he ordered his subordinates, "Quick, take the Duke's family from here."
Leave through the secret passage."
"As you command!"
The subordinates were ordered to leave.
"How could the city be destroyed? The war shouldn't have started yet? That guy must be lying."
The young master murmured to himself, saying that he did not believe that the main city that had been run by his family for hundreds of years could be breached so easily.
Of course, let alone this young master who has never seen the world, even the great nobles who have lived for hundreds of years have still never seen him.
The tactic of air-dropping goblin bombs from floating battleships is not even recorded in the textbooks of the nine emperors' military academies, because as the era of hobgoblins has been annihilated in the long river of history, goblin technology has been lost and can no longer be reproduced. Naturally,
It has no value for learning.
"Why are you panicking? Go and invite your ancestors!"
After hearing the guard's report, the Duchess immediately yelled, "The old master is Scepter. As long as he is here, Busque City will not fall."
"What? Didn't our ancestors die more than a hundred years ago?"
Of course the servants didn't know that the news of the previous generation's Duke's death was a cover-up, and he himself hid himself and concentrated on training. His hard work paid off, and he successfully stepped into the Scepter Steps.
Why did Busk dare to be the first to attack the Western Territory? In addition to his own strength, his ancestor was also a trump card. He originally planned to use it to deal with the king, but unexpectedly the situation took a turn for the worse.
"Come in!"
Looking at the tall wooden door of the Duke's Palace, Black Hand did not hesitate and directly ordered his men to rush forward.
boom!
The heavy cavalry rolled in like a steel chariot, smashing the wooden door into pieces.
In comparison, the drow were much more elegant. They were like civet cats, nimbly climbing over the wall, landing quietly in the courtyard, and shooting every enemy they could see.
Seeing the demons also rushing into the Duke's Palace, the barbarians stopped and lined up in front of the palace gate, waiting for resistance reinforcements.
"Where did the trash fish come from? How dare you come to the northern border to run wild?"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With a deep roar, magic energy exploded, and a white-haired old man floated on the roof of the tallest building in the mansion.
"die!"
The elements in front of the old man flashed, condensing into a scepter. He grabbed it with one hand, and after grabbing it, he radiated power from above and attacked the enemy soldiers who entered the house.
"Is it a scepter?"
"Help!"
"Kill them back and chop off their heads!"
When the guards in the mansion saw this scene, their morale was greatly boosted. A scepter step was a symbol of invincibility.
"Old immortal, if you don't discipline your people properly, they will come to my western territory to burn, kill, and loot. Now it's my turn to settle the score!"
The guards were shocked when they heard the powerful young voice. This man dared to scold a scepter even if he was desperate for his life.
"Who is it? Get out and die!"
The old man was furious.
"Remember, the one who killed you is Downton, the Duke of the West!"
Before the loud sound fell, everyone saw a young man with a pair of dazzling orange-red wings on his back, flying quickly and crashing into the ancestor.
"Go to hell!"
The old man pointed his staff at Downton, radiating power.
Zip!
A blue lightning ball formed instantly, exploded, and spread into a spiderweb-like electrical grid, completely covering Downton.
"Young man who doesn't know how to live or die!"
The old man snorted, and just when he thought Downton was going to die, who knew that the other party suddenly slashed the power grid into two pieces with a sword, and broke out directly. (To be continued...)
