Arthur's huge army descended on the Fourth Abyss with overwhelming force, but what greeted him was a powerful trap prepared by the natives of the Fourth Abyss who didn't know how many years ago.
The Devil's Castle, which was just the right size, neither too strong nor too weak, just made Arthur's forward army give up the idea of attacking directly. The Devil's Castle was built near a large lake, where there are clean water sources and flat land.
It happens to be a good place to set up camp.
So Arthur's legions, which kept coming, set up camp around the big lake, and surrounded the devil's castle everywhere.
After Arthur's Chinese army headquarters arrived, the Devil's Castle seized the opportunity and took the initiative to propose an ultimatum to Arthur. Either retreat or start a war. And this ultimatum was not far away from the arrival of reinforcements from the abyssal creatures.
Just over two hours.
This is another very subtle psychological calculation.
More than two hours, just enough time for Arthur's army to organize the military town and wait for the arrival of the opponent's reinforcements on the flat battlefield. Even Arthur's army had enough time to have a full meal and polish their swords, General
The town can be arranged more neatly, and some defenses such as trenches, horse barriers, and even low walls can even be prepared in the wilderness.
The reinforcements from the abyssal creatures traveled a long distance, and they had to march quickly for more than two hours to reach the battlefield.
Arthur's legion can just sit back and wait for work, and attack the enemy head-on with a recharged elite force. Therefore, Arthur will never take the risk of sending out a cavalry team to actively attack. He will only gather the team in an orderly manner in the military camp.
Mix them according to the best model, and strive to let the legions under your command exert the strongest combat effectiveness.
Just as the moment before dawn is the best time for a night attack, the period when Arthur's army is lining up to prepare for battle is the time when everyone in Arthur's army is most careless and disapproving.
Therefore, a large group of assassins from the abyssal creatures swarmed in. They assassinated a large number of middle and lower-level officers of Arthur's legion with extremely precise accuracy, directly cutting off the direct contact between Arthur's top generals and grassroots soldiers. In a short period of time, Arthur was completely lost.
Control of the legion.
Arthur's legion is very powerful because his legion has too many people! There are young and strong men of five provinces, what a terrifying number!
But Arthur's legion is also very weak. Because his legion is too large, but he does not have enough brains and muscles to perfectly control this legion. He lacks generals with sufficient practical experience, and he lacks generals with sufficient military experience.
Officer. Arthur's legion is like a giant with extremely strong muscles, but his brain capacity is only the size of a quail, and his muscles and bones are only the size of an ordinary person. Therefore, the combat effectiveness that Arthur's legion can exert is greater than that of a quail.
Ordinary people can't get anywhere.
This attack by the abyss creatures was simply fatal.
The erupting volcano burned a large amount of food and baggage, and large groups of cattle, sheep, pigs, dogs and other livestock used as food rations were burned to ashes. Almost all the tents of his elite army were burned down, and at least 70% of the middle and lower-level officers were lost.
above.
As for how many people Arthur's new recruits lost...
No one counts this number, and no one cares about it. Anyway, when the battlefield was being cleaned after this attack, the fire burning the corpses in Arthur's army lasted for three days and three nights. It burned hundreds of miles in radius.
You can smell a pungent burnt smell.
But for now, the attacks continue.
The volcano was erupting, the poisonous insects and ant beasts were desperately attacking, the magic octopuses in the big lake happily rolled up the soldiers one by one and stuffed them into their mouths, and the half-human and half-fish mages had exhausted their magic power and scurried back into the water in embarrassment.
rest.
There were flames all around, cries could not be heard, and Arthur's army was completely paralyzed.
Of course, Arthur's legion had too many people. Although this attack severely damaged the middle and lower-level officers of his elite legion, it also killed and injured many soldiers. But the scale of this legion was too big.
The overall strength has not dropped much.
But this legion has been paralyzed, and Arthur has temporarily lost control of this legion. His orders cannot be conveyed to those soldiers, and his will cannot be carried out. Even except for the disciplinary knights around him, Arthur
It is no longer possible to order any army that has fallen into chaos.
Lin Qi stood on the wall of his own city, and casually flicked a few vampire bats that rushed towards him into meat paste, and then raised his thumb with admiration: "I don't know who is commanding these abyss creatures. In short,
, that’s amazing. If I can conquer him, I can give him a rich enough salary.”
When saying these words, Lin Qi looked at Hazy Nightmare with a pure smile.
As the oldest known ancestor of all the evil spirits in the Fifth Abyss, Hazy Nightmare also has a great reputation in the abyss world. And the lower the level of the abyss world, the stronger the abyss world is. Chapter 1
An ordinary general in the Five Abyss can become a lord-level figure in the Fourth Abyss, let alone a being like Hazy Nightmare?
There are a large number of passages between the Fourth Abyss and the Fifth Abyss, and there are close connections between the two abyssal worlds.
Lin Qi wanted to find the person who commanded the abyss creatures to deal a heavy blow to Arthur, so it was most appropriate for Hazy Nightmare to come forward. These lords of the Fourth Abyss would never dare to lend them a hundred courages.
Refuse the order from the evil ghost ancestor from the fifth abyss.
Hazy Nightmare also laughed extremely ferociously: "I also want to see who this person is! This is not the way that demons and evil spirits should fight at all. It is a bit like the work of a necromancer? But that deceitful undead spirit
, they never easily leave the Ninth Abyss, which is the Abyss of the Dead, how could they come here?"
Shaking his head, Hazy Nightmare licked his lips: "And the tactics of the undead are not like this. They always like to use the human sea tactic to drown the enemy. The tactics they used today are shameless and cruel, but they are a bit like human generals.
Favorite means."
Human generals? Lin Qi shook his head. In the Fourth Abyss, there would be no human generals working for the abyss creatures, right?
There was a low roar from the ground, and the flames, poisonous smoke and lava erupted from more than fifty volcanoes gradually dissipated. The magic power stored in the lava purgatory magic circle was almost exhausted, and these small volcanoes retracted like withered flowers.
ground.
The poisonous insects that were raging in the recruit camp also made a dull roar like a storm, and fled back into the holes in the ground as fast as possible. Gradually, the miserable howls of wounded soldiers came from the recruit camp, and then the miserable howls.
One after another, they gradually became a shrill sound.
Covering hundreds of miles and surrounding the entire Great Lakes, the huge military camp exudes a withered and lonely gray atmosphere. Arthur's army feels like it was manipulated into three hundred and sixty by one hundred and eighty strong men.
The unlucky girl in ten postures was in a mess everywhere. Blood, strange venom, mucus and other substances were scattered everywhere. Almost half of the tent was burned to ashes by the fire, and the air was filled with a pungent burn.
Damn it, this loss is truly unbearable to the extreme.
The more than 10,000 clergymen accompanying the Temple of Punishment looked at each other in silence.
When the raid breaks out, their first reaction is to protect Arthur's life - if Arthur breaks a hair during the raid, then their fate will definitely be to be burned at the stake.
Faced with such a large-scale and bizarre surprise attack, these clergymen were really helpless. They teamed up to perform powerful magic, covering a radius of ten miles, but they only protected the most elite part of Arthur's command.
The heavy armored army only protected the castle where Arthur lived, but they were powerless for other places.
Of course, there are some extremely powerful clergy hidden among them, such as those old churches whose strength is unpredictable.
But these people are used to deal with Esther, and they are used to deal with the secret that the Silver Iris family hides in the Fourth Abyss. How can these people be willing to take action before seeing the secret of the Silver Iris family? No matter how many casualties there are,
What does ordinary soldiers have to do with these servants of the gods?
Therefore, Arthur received a severe whipping that left him in a daze and couldn't figure out his head for a long time.
Arthur, who had been so powerful just now, was now like a broken pig urine bubble, completely soft on the ground.
His legion, his huge legion, the legion that could sweep almost everything, was so beaten into darkness and blood spurted from its mouth in such a short time?
"Form up the army and prepare for war!" Arthur's shrill howl sounded far away!
Arthur finally remembered that the reinforcements from the abyssal creatures were constantly arriving here. They were still about two hours away from here just now, but after this period of harassment, they are still at most an hour away from here.
.
An hour later, Arthur will face the assault of huge enemy reinforcements!
We must organize our troops and horses. Before the enemy arrives, we must at least put up a decent formation on the field, right?
Following Arthur's hysterical howling, the huge legion once again became commotion. The soldiers did not care about rescuing the wounded, but under the shouts of the chaotic disciplinary knights, they rushed towards the direction of the enemy's attack in embarrassment.
About five soldiers with the size of a full army had just formed a messy long snake formation on the plain. Before they had time to sort out the formation, the devil's castle located just behind their formation suddenly opened at the same time.
Square gates.
With a low roar, the Ghost Knight, who was like a black tide, drove the Abyss Demon Lizard, which was as fast as the wind. Without saying a word, he waved his weapon and rushed out of the castle as fast as lightning, like four black swords.
The steel knife stabbed hard into the rear of Arthur Army Town.
Arthur and the generals around him never dreamed that the demonic castle would take the initiative to send troops to raid!
They watched helplessly as at least 50,000 heavily armed Ghost Knights rushed into their own military formation. Welcome to come and your support is my greatest motivation.m
