The evil ghost army is stationed on the edge of the Weliagaxi Hills. Evil ghost warriors are constantly coming from the north. There are traces of evil ghosts all over the mountains and plains. The evil ghosts on the edge of the hills are more like a dark cloud on the horizon, weighing down.
The soldiers on the Western Route Army's side were all out of breath.
The evil ghost warriors are strong and strong, and when standing together, they will gather a strong momentum.
In the past two days, even the sound of talking and laughing in the military camp has decreased a lot. Due to the pressure brought by those evil spirits, many infantry soldiers took the initiative to carry stones on the edge of the canyon. The walls outside the military stronghold continued to rise at a speed visible to the naked eye.
high.
The clouds on the highlands of Moyunling are very low. It is the rainy season recently, and the cumulonimbus clouds in the sky are like pieces of snow-white marshmallows.
Everywhere on the tundra is full of water vapor, and many dry creeks are gurgling at this time.
Surdak's tent was set up on the highest point of the high hill, and the tents of all the infantry regiments were surrounding his military tent.
Standing at the entrance of the camp and looking north, you can see countless black figures crowding the hills to the north. Those evil ghosts are also looking at this side. They should be more eager than the Western Route Army...
These evil ghosts ate almost all the large animals on the Moyunling highlands until they were extinct, and then gnawed tree bark in the mountains for several months. Now that they saw the imperial army, they may not even see them as enemies in their eyes, but countless
Delicious grilled sausages and steaks.
The foundation of the wall of the Western Route Army's military stronghold has been completed, and the main body of the wall is being built with the stones carried back by the infantry soldiers from the edge of the canyon.
No one can afford to wait for this battle, whether it's the evil spirits or the Western Route Army...
The top leaders of the Evil Ghost Army are worried that the West Route Army will build a military stronghold. If the Evil Ghost warriors want to attack again, they don't know how many Evil Ghost warriors will have to be sacrificed to open a gap.
Surdak and the officers of the Western Route Army were worried that the evil spirits coming continuously from the North Sunderland Mountains would eventually accumulate to a very large number, and the military stronghold might not be able to hold it.
In the tent in Surdak, Selina was holding a cup of black tea from Halanza City and teaching Xigna how to draw runes.
Recently, everyone has been influenced by the magicians in the investigation team. In their free time, they will practice drawing magic patterns. Recently, these magicians are making magic shield scrolls. Selina taught Xigna some dark-related things.
some runes.
Obviously, Xigna is not yet old enough to sit still. She has to draw complex-shaped runes on magic parchment every day, which is extremely boring for her.
At this moment, she pouted, twisted her body, and drew a symbol impatiently.
If Selena hadn't been here to keep an eye on her, she would have disappeared without a trace.
In order to provide sufficient volcanic ash cement to the military stronghold, Surdak and Aphrodite have been running back and forth between the rental warehouse in Helensa City and the stronghold warehouse almost day and night these two days. Fortunately, Surdak
Duck has accumulated a lot of magic pockets and can carry a lot of supplies every time.
Half-elf archer Samira and magician Avid walked in from outside.
Surdak was sleeping soundly on a wicker chair, with a hand-drawn map of Moyun Ridge covering his face.
Probably hearing the footsteps, Suldak woke up, opened the parchment map on his face, and saw that it was Avid walking in from the outside. He sat up from the wicker chair and asked him: "Willy?"
What is the current situation of the evil ghost army over in the Agassiz Hills?"
The magician Avid also knew that even saying "pay attention to rest" would be of no use at this time.
The war is coming, and no one can get a good sleep.
He pointed directly at the map and said:
"There are currently three evil ghost legions coming towards us. The evil ghost legion gathered in the northern hills is the westernmost one. This evil ghost legion has the largest number of evil ghost warriors among the three evil ghost legions.
So far, there are probably about 20,000 evil spirits gathered in the Villagasi Hills. So far, we have only found a few evil generals, but not the evil leader..."
"When the vanguard of the evil ghost army in the middle entered the southern area of the Villagasi Hills, it happened to run into Andrew's Constructed Knights. The vanguard was completely scattered. Now the evil ghost army is repairing here. It's a distance away.
We still have about a day's journey from here."
"There are some evil spirits in the eastern section of the North Sunderland Mountains chasing the Handanar City reinforcements to the north, so the number of evil ghosts on the east route is the smallest, only about 10,000 so far, and they are coming from the direction of the inner lake.
, if we don’t rest along the way, it will take at least three days to get here.”
"Their vanguard just met the constructed swordsmen group led by Marquis Simon Jeffrey who was moving eastward in the eastern section of the Villagasi Hills. They fought tentatively not far from the inner lake, constructing swords
The number of swordsmen was much smaller than that of the devils, and they did not take advantage. According to the news from there, there should be some constructed swordsmen who quietly broke away from the constructed swordsmen of Marquis Simon Jeffrey after the battle.
group."
When Surdak heard what Aved said, his eyes lit up: "Do you know where they all went?"
"Most of the Constructed Swordsmen who left chose to go north. They walked very scattered. Some Constructed Swordsmen simply joined the adventure group hunting near Neihu." Avide replied,
"You said these constructed swordsmen who left the team joined the adventure group over there?" Surdak said with some regret.
"There are also some Constructed Swordsmen who have caught up with Andrew's Constructed Knights. It is said that they have offered to join the Western Route Army, and some are trying to pass through the canyons of the North Sunderland Mountains. They should be looking for Handa heading north.
Reinforcements from Nar City." Magician Avide introduced everything in detail.
Surdak nodded, he was a little disgusted with the aristocratic military system of the Green Empire.
Many expeditionary armies are made up of the lord armies of noble lords, large and small. The noble lords also have to prepare all logistics materials for the lord armies going out. In other words, everything used by these lord armies on the battlefield is made of
Those noble lords pay the bill, which is the basic investment in launching a war, and the spoils divided after winning the war are the specific income of these noble lords.
Although war is a violent industry, and a victory can make everyone make a lot of money, but the failure of the war also means that these noble lords lose their money...
Of course, in addition to these large and small noble lords sending their lord armies to participate in the war, there are also some small nobles who cannot afford a private army who join the legion in their own name.
This type of nobles often join some constructed swordsmen groups, and they pay for their own expeditions. However, after the war is won, the spoils of war belong to them personally. In many cases, the legion only takes a small commission.
It is easy to say that this kind of army will win the war. Once there are signs of failure in the war, it will disintegrate very quickly.
Just like the Constructed Swordsmen Group of Marquis Simon Jeffrey, there is actually no sign of defeat yet. It's just that Marquis Simon Jeffrey made two mistakes in judging the battle situation, so the constructs in the Constructed Swordsmen Group were
The swordsmen had great doubts about Marquis Geoffrey.
Therefore, some free noble knights took advantage of the fighting opportunity to quietly leave the Constructed Swordsmen Group.
"Currently, Marquis Simon Jeffrey is leading the remaining teams of the Constructed Swordsmen Corps stationed on the south bank of the inner lake." The magician Avid added at this time.
Suldak asked again: "Where is the current location of Andrew's Constructed Knights?"
Magician Avide pointed to the canyon in the North Sunderland Mountains and said: "They have now entered the canyon and are planning to pass through the canyon to reach the northern tundra, but the current traveling speed is a bit slow!"
Surdak and Samira raised their heads at the same time and looked at the magician Avid, waiting for his next explanation.
"Since the reinforcements from Handanar City just passed through this canyon, the heavy armored infantry regiment of the reinforcements gave the evil ghost warriors hiding in the mountains some sweetness. These evil ghosts don't care much about the army passing through this canyon. After all,
Is it the heavy armored infantry regiment of reinforcements, or the constructed knights of the Western Route Army."
"They are constantly harassing Andrew's Constructed Knights, but Andrew is eager to fight all the evil spirits. Along the way, the Constructed Knights...have to fight against the evil ghost warriors every day."
Magician Avid stopped after speaking.
Surdak asked again: "How many adventure groups are there currently in the North Sunderland Mountains?"
In fact, he is still a little worried about the adventure groups hunting in this area. Now a large number of evil ghost legions are rushing out from the North Sunderland Mountains. Once these adventure groups collide with the large army of evil ghost legions, if they do not run away in time, they may be killed.
Swallowed by the evil ghost army.
These adventure groups are the main force that cleans up the remaining evil spirits after the war. If they can do it smoothly, Surdak still wants to take care of them.
"There are less than a hundred adventure groups, and most of the adventure groups are currently hunting evil spirits in the Mevagissi Gorge. Most of these adventure groups are in the Inner Lake area," Avid said.
Samira, who had been sitting next to her without saying much, asked the magician Aved: "Is there any news from the reinforcements in Handanar City?"
"The heavy armored infantry regiment on the reinforcement side is currently being bitten by a group of evil ghosts. They have been forced to stop in the tundra north of the North Sunderland Mountains. They are building a walled city like us, but due to the nearby
There were no suitable building materials, so we just built an earthen wall with a ditch on the hillside."
Magician Avide introduced.
…
Just as the magician Avid reported various information detected by the magicians to Surdak, the reinforcements from Handanar City were fighting fiercely with the evil spirits on the tundra north of the North Sunderland Mountains.
The location of the battlefield happened to be on a grassy slope. The terrain of this grassy slope was very gentle. There was a huge trench across the middle of the slope, and on the other side of the trench was a wall made of clay.
A group of evil ghosts rushed over from under the slope with swords in their hands. They jumped down the ditch under the rain of arrows, and then climbed over the earth wall to fight with the heavy armored infantry soldiers guarding behind.
Two rows of heavily armored warriors holding square tower shields stood at the front of the military formation. They used their shields to block the oncoming evil ghost warriors. Similarly, the warriors behind would use Paglio spears to pierce the evil ghost's body.
However, the moment the evil spirits rushed forward, they would use their tall bodies and sharp blades to stab the infantry warriors from the upper edge of their tower shields. Many shield warriors had their heads chopped off in this way, or simply had their heads cut off.
There was a bloody hole in his face.
Almost all the evil ghost warriors who rushed forward had several spears and feather arrows stuck in their bodies. Before they fell, they would pounce on other heavy armored infantry soldiers and use the bone spurs on their bodies to kill the infantry soldiers together...
All ghost warriors will become extremely bloodthirsty on the battlefield, and they are not afraid of death. The ghost warriors in front will fight a bloody path and fall, and the ghost warriors behind will become even crazier.
This caused extremely heavy casualties to the shield warriors in the Handanar City reinforcements.
In just half a day, Marquis Heller mobilized two heavy armored infantry regiments, mainly shield warriors, to the battlefield ahead.
At this moment, Marquis Heller's heart was extremely bitter. If the captains of these infantry regiments hadn't wanted to hunt evil spirits on the way and provoked so many evil ghosts to follow him, maybe he could have built a city here.
Come to the village.
As long as you rely on the fortifications of the city, you can stop these evil spirits in front of you...
But now! The earthen city wall has not been repaired, and now it is just this battle that is almost crushed by the evil ghost warriors.
Fortunately, at dusk, these evil ghost warriors retreated hastily from the battlefield, giving the reinforcements in Handanar City some breathing space.
The injured heavy armored infantry soldiers gradually withdrew from the battlefield to the back. The remaining soldiers began to clean the battlefield, collecting valuable things from the ghost warriors, and then carried the bodies of the dead infantry soldiers together to check their identities and sort out their belongings.
The heavy armored infantry regiment that did not participate in the battle had to repair this huge trench and earthen wall at night.
A lot of heavy armored infantry were killed in the battle, but the reinforcements had no way to retreat and could only stick to this hillside.
There were not too many evil spirits gathered at the bottom of the hillside. They were eating the food obtained from the battlefield, and from time to time they would make low roars.
Some time ago, Handanar City received frequent battle reports from the Bena Army and the Western Route Army. Whether it was Kornberg County or the Gandaur Mountains, there were good reports one after another...
So much so that the lords in the city felt that victory would be easy if they fought against the evil spirits.
The lords think... maybe the evil spirits in the Abyss have now realized that there is no room for survival in the Warsaw plane, so they have no fighting spirit. As a result, the Bena Legion has won one after another, and even defended the territory in Qian.
The Western Route Army on the edge of the Daer Mountains also killed a large number of evil spirits.
But now, when Marquis Heller actually came to the battlefield in the Moyunling Highlands, he realized that it was completely false to say that the evil ghost warriors had no fighting ability.
Those evil spirits can really eat people on the battlefield. They eat people, horses, dry food, and almost anything...
