From the moment the sand suddenly surged out, the sound of countless fine sand pouring madly overshadowed everything else, and the momentum was extremely astonishing.
Many enemy soldiers who reacted a little faster subconsciously looked up and saw that the sand pouring down like a waterfall had already landed on everyone's heads.
Facing this sudden and terrifying scene, the enemy soldiers who had just had fear in their eyes didn't even have time to scream, and were instantly buried by the sea of sand falling from the sky.
The powerful pressure formed by countless fine sand easily crushed everything including heavy armor. Most of the soldiers were immediately crushed into a blur of blood before they were suffocated in the sea of sand.
In just a moment, the enemy army that was the first to face the quicksand, as well as the surrounding streets and buildings of Luzhai, were all buried by the yellow sand, leaving no trace.
After the enemy legion at the front was completely devoured, the other surrounding enemy legions reacted one after another, and screams of fear immediately resounded through the sky, but were soon replaced by a continuous "rustling" sound. ” overshadowed by the sound.
Seeing the quicksand that still maintained the form of a giant dragon sweeping over the sky, countless soldiers threw away their weapons, battle flags, and even battle helmets, and scattered towards the rear while shouting in panic.
But the speed of running is not comparable to that of quicksand, not to mention that most of the soldiers are wearing armor.
As the majestic sand sea spread wantonly, groups of fleeing enemy soldiers were buried by the wild sand, without any ability to resist, making the whole scene like purgatory.
In the blink of an eye, the continuous wild sand swallowed up three enemy legions one after another, and finally slowed down the raging momentum.
Seeing that the position filled with murderous intent instantly turned into a silent death place, the enemy soldiers located in other areas a little further away were out of danger, panting, their livers and gallbladders were split, and they began to look at each other.
They never thought that the deadly quicksand that was originally pouring on the defeated merchants would eventually wreak havoc on themselves!
For a time, a sense of uneasiness suddenly spread in the enemy camp. The quicksand swallowed not only these enemy soldiers, but also their originally high morale.
Things couldn't be more obvious. The despicable guest from another world turned things around and made them suffer the backlash of quicksand, while their commander could only watch it all happen!
Since everything happened in a blink of an eye, by the time the Fourth Prince and his group came to their senses, the previously indestructible defensive position they had carefully deployed had been torn into a big hole, and everywhere was filled with yellow sand and blood.
You know, this place was originally used to clean up the defeated generals of the besieged Tradeland who were almost killed by magic traps. But now the opponent not only escaped unscathed from several deadly traps, but their side lost 3 legions in an instant!
Although with the huge size of 28 legions, the losses of three legions are not considered heavy, but in the current anxious war situation, even a small change is enough to cause earth-shattering changes!
"My master will definitely cut that despicable alien scum into pieces!"
Kent's square face was completely filled with anger and murderous intent, and he was roaring hysterically.
Two-thirds of the three legions he lost just now were elite soldiers of the Yorkman family under his command!
In other words, he used the ultimate move he had made to press the box, and it finally landed on the heads of the soldiers on his side!
This is no longer just the extent to which he, as the head of the family, will be laughed at by future generations for thousands of years. This is undoubtedly a great humiliation that the Yorkman family has never suffered in six hundred years!
"The Lancaster family's magic trap ruined a Lancastrian legion, and the Yorkman family's magic attack directly ruined two legions of the Yorkman family? That despicable alien scum is simply hateful!"
The fourth prince's face was also extremely cold, but after suffering successive setbacks, he did not become more angry, but became calmer.
The fourth prince clearly understood that with this series of defeats, the balance of victory had gradually begun to tilt towards the opponent.
However, he still has the means in his hand that is enough to reverse the situation of the battle. As long as he takes the initiative in the next confrontation, he will still be able to kill the despicable alien scum and the vase princess just around the corner!
Thinking of this, although he was full of resentment in his heart, the fourth prince with a gloomy face quickly adjusted his emotions and said to the head of the Yorkman family who was filled with murderous intent: "Mr. Kent, temporary success or failure is not enough to dominate the situation of this battle.
, as long as we work together, we can still let those despicable aliens die without a burial place!"
"Your Highness is right, and I think so too."
Faced with the heavy loss of the Yorkman family, Stone rarely showed a look of gloating on his old face, but said to Kent with a solemn face: "The skills of that despicable alien scum are indeed beyond my expectations.
Imagine that only by frank and sincere cooperation between the two races can we send him to purgatory!"
"It's true that we underestimated the enemy."
Kent took a deep breath slowly and suppressed the anger in his heart.
As the leader of the Yorkman family, he is naturally very aware of the current situation.
Kent, who was full of murderous intent, was holding an iron fist as big as a sandbag while nodding to the head of the Lancaster family and said: "What Archduke Stone said is true. From this moment on, the Yorkman family will fight with the Lancaster family."
With one heart and one mind, we will make that despicable alien scum pay an extremely heavy price!"
"Haha, I was waiting for the words of the Grand Duke of Kent."
Stone's old face was also covered with murderous intent, and the corner of his mouth slightly curved in a fatal arc: "Let that despicable alien guy take a good look at what will happen if the bloodthirsty pterodactyl and the bloodthirsty earth dragon work together.
How terrible."
…
"Sir, guest, your move to turn the world around is enough to be written into the legend and be praised by future generations!"
On the other side of the battlefield, the faces of Ai Wen and other merchants elders were filled with uncontrollable excitement, and they said sincerely to Lei Xiao: "If you defeat the Fourth Prince and his group again and again, I'm afraid the other party will be frightened.
, we are not far away from this victory!"
After the elders finished speaking, Ariel and other main subordinates surrounding Lei Xiao also nodded excitedly.
"It would be like this if it were an ordinary enemy, but don't forget that what we are facing is the fourth prince who took care of the eldest prince and the second prince in one go."
Lei Xiao's face did not show too much pride and joy, but said solemnly: "Before this, although the Lancaster family and the Yorkman family formed an alliance, they would definitely not be able to do so because they were competitors.
We will work together, and now that we have forced the other party into a desperate situation, the result is self-evident."
"Your Excellency, guest, are you saying that the two wealthy families who have been forced into a dead end will, under the guidance of the fourth prince, put aside their past differences and fight side by side, so as to pose a more serious threat to us?"
Old Aiwen immediately understood what Lei Xiao was referring to, and a look of solemnity also appeared on the old face.
"Yes, the next step is the critical moment that determines victory or defeat."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said solemnly to the merchant elders and subordinates: "Everyone must be more vigilant. The real test is about to begin."
Through the latest intelligence summary, Lei Xiao clearly understood.
Under the moonlight, after a whole day of fierce fighting, he still had nearly 15 legions of troops in his hands.
There are 5 Merchant Army regiments preparing to break out, and 10 Merchant Army regiments coming for reinforcements. Among them, the number of main army regiments is 2 and 5 respectively.
After the enemy has sharply reduced the strength of 4 legions, there are still about 20 legions left, including 10 wealthy legions and 10 fallen noble coalitions, of which there are less than 5 main legions.
This means that although the ratio between the enemy and us is 15:20, we are still at a numerical disadvantage, but because there are two more main legions than the opponent, the actual combat strength is almost equal to the opponent.
The most critical thing is that after such a long period of high-intensity combat, both the enemy and ourselves are extremely exhausted, causing the battlefield to completely fall into an anxious stage of stalemate.
"In other words, the breakthrough point still lies with these breakout legions."
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and focused on the battlefield again.
The moonlight was hazy, and after losing the supply of magic power, the raging quicksand had begun to turn into energy particles again, making the messy neighborhood covered with a large number of enemy corpses.
"Now that the gap in the opponent's defensive front has been torn apart, it's time for our five breakout legions to attack with all their strength."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, he immediately issued an order for a full-scale breakout.
"Soldiers of the Shanglu family, the time has come to show our grace and strength to the guest and the princess!"
At the forefront of the bloody battlefield, Andy, who was already ready to go, after receiving the order, raised the visor on his helmet and waved his hand: "Break out of the encirclement and join the surrounding reinforcements."
,assault!"
After speaking, Eddie put down his face protection, the tomahawk in his hand gleaming, and charged towards the enemy position with the brunt of the attack.
"For the sake of your lord, for the sake of Your Highness the Princess!"
After seeing Lei Xiao's series of strategizing, the soldiers were all full of energy and rushed to surround Andy, setting up an offensive formation.
Behind this leading elite army, the other four breakout armies that arrived one after another under Lei Xiao's control also followed closely behind and launched an assault towards the enemy's defensive line that had not yet been restored.
Seeing our legions charging in like magic soldiers descending from the sky, the enemy soldiers who had just escaped had not yet recovered from the fear dominated by quicksand, and hurriedly followed the orders of their respective commanders.
Formed a formation again.
However, before the formation was fully deployed, the swords swung by our soldiers had already struck the opponent.
Angry war cries and shrill screams resounded through the streets again, even though the place had just been turned into ruins by the lingering power of quicksand.
Blood was seen flowing down the corpse wearing broken armor, and even the hazy moonlight was dyed with a bright red.
It didn't take long for our soldiers to fight their way through the obstacles, quickly penetrated the opponent's first line of defense, and charged deep into the streets of the city.
However, what is waiting for us there is the joint camp composed of the Lancaster family and the Yorkman family. After the initial legion of fallen nobles fought for time, the defense line here has become impregnable.
Under the full resistance of several legions of the two giants, even though our soldiers were brave and fearless, the offensive still slowed down as expected, making it extremely difficult to advance.
"The combat capabilities of the Lancaster family and the Yorkman family are indeed very impressive."
Ariel looked at the increasingly stalemate battle situation and couldn't help but frown.
Back then, when her father tried to restore his status as a free farmer, in addition to encountering strong opposition from the fallen nobles, another major and decisive obstacle came from the wealthy Lancaster and Yorkman families in the kingdom.
Because that will greatly affect their income.
As for the merchant family, they have always maintained a neutral attitude. After all, the merchant family, which controls the economic lifeline of the kingdom, does not bother to exploit the interests of free farmers. They are good at business and have thousands of ways to obtain more income.
This is also an important reason why the Yorkman family and the Lancaster family have always disliked the Phytolacca family.
"Due to the strong opposition from the two wealthy families and the fallen nobles, as well as the Shanglu family's neutrality, my father had no choice but to shelve this idea."
"At the same time, my father is also deeply aware that these two aristocratic and wealthy families who have strong military and self-respect have threatened the authority of the royal family, but there is nothing they can do."
"After all, compared to the two wealthy families, the royal family's strength is relatively limited. It can easily intimidate ordinary fallen nobles, but when facing two wealthy families at the same time, it is somewhat unable to do so. This is also the regret of my father's life."
"And now, with the help of your lord, I have gained strength that far exceeds that of my father, and I can have the opportunity to realize my father's and my own ideals!"
While feeling excited, Ariel's starry eyes remained fixed on the stalemate on the battlefield without blinking.
It is undeniable that the strength of the Yorkman family and the Lancaster family is indeed extraordinary.
And just as the lord said, the two have indeed put aside their old grudges and started fighting side by side, which undoubtedly makes everything even more difficult.
Thinking of this, Ariel's delicate cheeks felt nervous again,
"Don't worry, everything is under my control."
Looking at Ariel's long eyelashes that were flashing because of nervousness, Lei Xiao gently patted her shoulder to signal her to relax.
The situation now is very clear.
Now that the battlefield has become anxious again, and the enemy and we have no other means to break the situation, it is time for the top combat forces of both sides to compete.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, a huge change occurred on the battlefield filled with murderous intent.
