Magician Avide stood on a wooden roof outside the camp, looking at the chaotic battlefield and feeling speechless.
The few old magic scholars he brought over looked at the chaotic scene in front of them and had no intention of taking action. However, the Hell Legion had already begun to siege the city, and Surdak's heavy armored infantry regiment seemed more embarrassed.
Whether to take the opportunity to attack the city or to fight to the death with the Hell Legion army outside the city, no matter which option is chosen based on the current situation, it is not the wisest choice for Surdak.
If the Surdak Legion fights to the death with the Hell Legion, it will virtually help the Lord's army reduce the pressure on the siege.
But at this time, if the enemy chooses to attack Mukusuo City with the Hell Legion without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy, not only will they be condemned by all parties, but they may also face pressure from the Hell Legion during the siege. After all, it is impossible for the three parties to form an alliance. With Su
Judging from Erdak's military strength, he is the weaker force among the three parties.
So Surdak stopped his army ten miles south of Mukusuo City to observe the situation.
Although there are also a large number of hell dogs following the refugees heading south, the pressure is naturally insignificant compared to the pressure over Mukuso City.
At least here, when attacked by hellhounds, the attacks often end in one wave, giving the soldiers some rest.
There are still many carriages in the slums, taking the risk of being attacked by hell dogs to transport these refugees to a safe place in the south.
The city gate of Mukusuo was closed tightly, and Suldak's carriage team gradually escorted the residents of the town to evacuate southward.
More cavemen gathered under the city. They did not follow the refugees south. Their intention was obvious, that is, they wanted to capture Mukuso City in one fell swoop.
The situation in Mukuso City is precarious...
The Hell Legion's siege has never stopped since it began. The fighting on the city walls lasted from morning to evening without stopping for a moment.
The corpses of the cavemen under the city have already piled up like mountains. The corpses of the dead and wounded city guards on the city wall are also filled with the city square. Corpses are wrapped in white cloth and lying on the square. From a few hundred in the morning, to dusk
By that time the number had reached four thousand.
The reason for the surge in the number of dead was that there were too many corpses of cavemen under the city. These corpses formed a human ladder, allowing more cavemen and hell dogs to easily rush up the city wall...
Adler McDonnell, the supreme commander of Lord McDonnell's army. This new Lord McDonnell has just taken office less than half a month ago, and just half a month ago, he led the first army north to crusade against the black magic hidden force.
The monastery is firmly entrenched in the town of Acre, but before the first legion could reach Acre, they encountered the Hell Legion coming from the north.
After three days of fierce fighting, the First Legion of the Lord Army withdrew to Mukuso City.
On the first day after withdrawing to Mukuso City, when the noble lords of Mukuso City expressed concern about the situation in the north, Adler McDonnell was still patting his chest and telling the nobles that the city had gathered
With nearly 60,000 lord troops, it is not difficult at all to defend Mukusuo City.
When the demonic hell army came to the city, Commander Adler McDonnell's tone changed. He hoped that the noble lords in the city would provide some supplies to help the lord army tide over the difficulties together.
The defense battle of Mukusuo City lasted for just one day, and the city defenders were almost defeated.
Under Adler's instructions, the remaining troops of the Lord's Army climbed to the top of the city and assisted the city defense in the defensive battle. The defenders then managed to hold on to the outer walls of Mukuso.
In just one day, the cavemen gathered hundreds of thousands of troops under the city.
By nightfall, the siege battlefield not only involved the north city wall, but also a large number of cavemen and hell dogs gathered under the east and west walls.
The siege pressure faced by the city defenders increased three times compared to that during the day. However, for the cavemen, it was the same day and night. They could also fight at night, and now all three city walls were in danger.
That night Lord Adler McDonnell gathered the noble lords in the city. He asked the private militia of the noble lords in the city, adventure group soldiers, and mercenaries to take turns to climb the city to participate in the battle. The specific deployment was done by
The city defense brigade was formulated.
In one night, the siege area spread to the south city wall.
It's just that the slum area in the south is very large. When many hell dogs arrived in the south of the city, they couldn't help but chase and kill the people who couldn't escape. They did not form a siege in the south of the city.
Standing under the north city wall, Adler McDonnell and a group of officers looked at the Hell Legion pouring out of the city with a worried look on their face.
Adler McDonnell knew that it wouldn’t take many Hell Legions to form an encirclement, and he would really have to defend Mukuso City by then. However, this city could sustain itself in front of the Hell Legions without external resources.
how long?
Both military strength and supplies will face huge challenges.
However, due to the continuous wars in the past year, there are not many supplies in the warehouses of Mukusuo City.
Adler McDonnell really wanted to throw himself off the city wall, so that he wouldn't have so many worries.
The followers around Adler McDonnell have been trying to persuade him: "Sir, you must make plans in advance! Once the south city gate is blocked by the Hell Legion, you will not be able to escape even if you want to."
…
At dawn, hell dogs and cavemen appeared in large areas of the Nancheng slums, looking for anything to eat.
The great swordsman Quintus led the constructed swordsmen to fight fiercely for a day and a night. They dragged their exhausted bodies back to the camp. Almost everyone suffered from the results of the battle. The heads of those hell dogs were thrown into the military camp one by one.
In the wooden box in front of the big tent.
The swordsmen washed away the blood on their bodies under the wooden bathing wall built before death. Suldak walked out of the tent and asked the great swordsman Quintas to arrange for the constructed swordsmen to enter the treatment tent one by one.
Regardless of whether he was injured or not, Surdak blessed each constructed swordsman with the blessing of God's "Blessed Body".
The Constructed Swordsmen did not expect that Surdak could perform such an operation.
The full feeling of physical strength being continuously injected into the body amazed the constructed swordsmen.
The swordsmen were going to take a nap first and then go clean out the hell dogs outside the camp later...
…
After Suldak finished the blessing ceremony for the five hundred constructed swordsmen, Archmage Morrison walked into the tent with a solemn expression.
"The situation in Mukusuo City is very bad. There is a danger of the city being destroyed at any time. Duck, you also know that once Mukusuo City is destroyed, the Ganbu Plane is likely to become a jumping point for the Hell Legion." Mori Master Sen said worriedly.
The leader of the Magic Union Law Enforcement Group stared at Suldak with a pair of golden eyes and continued:
"I plan to go to Mukusuo and have a good talk with the commander of the lord army there. At this time, I hope that the Bena coalition and the local lord army can temporarily put aside their conflicts and jointly fight against the Hell Army."
Suldak thought for a moment and said: "We don't think there is any possibility of cooperation at this time. After all, we have been from Bansk Town to here..."
Archmage Morrison said calmly: "I can come forward to negotiate. If the negotiation fails, our mage group can only provide assistance to Mukusuo. After all, that is the main battlefield against the Hell Legion."
"Although everyone can cooperate, I will not give up repairing the portal. In addition, I am waiting for your news!"
Surdak smiled politely at Archmage Morrison and said.
Archmage Morrison turned and left, leaving Surdak alone in the military tent.
He was sitting on a wooden box, thinking about how to fight against the Hell Legion, complete the military's combat mission, and reverse the current difficult situation.
Although it seems that the situation in Mukusuo has not had any impact on the legion at present, it is because the demon hell legion has not noticed the heavy armored infantry legion of Surdak. Once the hell legion notices, those massive cavemen and hells will As long as the vicious dogs charge forward, it is still unknown how long the Legion can hold on.
He patted his forehead, but unfortunately he still couldn't contact Yisel, and he didn't know what the red dragon was doing.
Aphrodite has already rushed to Pussy Hill as fast as possible.
At this time, he felt something was burning on his chest. He lowered his head and groped around and found that the phalanx had become slightly hot.
He took the finger bone off the sobriety pendant, put it to his lips and blew on it.
A series of bloody runes emerged from the finger bones, forming a bloody magic array at the feet of Surdak. In the center of the magic array, a bloody gate appeared, filled with various terrifying reliefs. The bloody door was pushed open by a big pale hand.
The dark wind roared inside the door, and countless skeletal hands stretched out from the door. Those hands grabbed the edge of the door, as if trying to get out from inside.
Count Fornak walked out of the door in a decent black dress. He closed the bloody door and walked elegantly to Suldak, sat down on the only chair in the tent, and said with a smile:
"Dake, long time no see! It's not easy waiting for you to treat me to afternoon tea..."
"Hello, Count Fornak!" Suldak stood up and said.
He wanted to pour Count Fornac a cup of tea, but the teapot in the military tent had long since gone cold.
"It seems you have a little trouble..."
Count Fornac had a faint smile on his face, but his face looked like it was smeared with thick plaster.
"We have indeed encountered a lot of trouble. Is everything going well with you?" Suldak said calmly.
Count Faunak nodded and said: "We have just annexed a piece of land recently, so we have a small corner in the Ghost Realm."
"That's really good..." Suldak said.
"It's a world of the jungle over there. It's very pure. The weak have to survive. When they are strong, they have to keep swallowing up other weak ones to make themselves stronger. They can't stop for a moment, because once you stop, you don't know who will take advantage of it.
Compared to the past, when I think about it, I really miss the days when I was a noble in Helensa City... Now only by chatting with you can these memories not be erased from my memory, and I can occasionally think of the past." Faunak.
The count said with emotion.
Surdak said apologetically: "Sorry, I haven't been able to invite you to tea for a while!"
"If you have anything to apologize for, as I said before, if you need help, just ask." Count Fornak looked at the night outside the tent and said to Suldak with a smile.
