The arrival of Silas seemed to be the spark that ignited the powder keg, making the situation in Severjord a bit strange this winter.
Winter's Claw finally figured out the reason why the past raids on Avarosa always failed, and relied on Silas to disguise himself as Avarosa reinforcements to lure the defenders in the stronghold away from the defense of the city wall.
Avoid siege warfare, which they are not good at.
Under the influence of the information gap, Sejuani led her team to pierce through Avarosa's defense system in one battle and forcefully passed through the Nuuskara Pass.
Compared with the Freljord people's "whole family, young and old" style of fighting in the past, Sejuani, who led the Winter's Claw warriors, undoubtedly took advantage of the speed of her troops to the extreme.
After crossing the Nyuskara Pass, the warriors of Winter's Claw relied on the amazing endurance of the Juvask wild boar to run at a forced march speed that could only be achieved by one person with two horses or even three people with three horses in other places.
Army assault, set off lightly, heading straight to Frost Harbor, intending to bring a greeting from Winter's Claw to Avarosa!
If any other tribe had been dealt such a blow by Winter's Claw, they would probably be completely beheaded.
But Avarosa is different.
After receiving the news, Ai Xi remained calm in the face of danger. While gathering his troops, he asked allied tribes to stand behind the strongholds of the city walls and wait for reinforcements. At the same time, he led the most elite team, all members of which were of ice blood, to take the initiative and began to harass Lin along the way.
The Winter Claw team!
Because they are more familiar with the terrain, Ashe and her elite team can always lurk as close as the Winter Claw commandos want, and then rely on the favorable terrain to carry out small-scale attacks. Under Ashe's command, this
This kind of attack sometimes occurs in the early morning and dusk, sometimes in the middle of the night. It does not require much damage, but it does not require people to feel at ease.
On the thousand-mile ice field from the Nyuskara Pass to the Ningshuang Port, the Winter Claw warriors, who were outnumbered, discovered for the first time that the snow could actually talk!
Calculating the manpower, the damage this team can cause each time is not too great, but just as Ashe hoped, their presence made the Winter's Claw warriors who were originally high in morale nervous and moved slowly.
Come down.
The Juvask wild boar could still run every day, but the people sitting on the wild boar's back became panicked, and the situation of the battle began to change.
After discovering that Ashe personally led the team to follow and harass, Udyr immediately requested a retreat - he had seen a similar situation in Ionia, and how the Noxian army was harassed by the Navoli Brotherhood.
He knows it very well.
However, Sejuani, who had always respected him and valued his opinions, insisted that the warriors of Winter's Claw speed up their pace.
"Ashe wants to use this method to slow us down!" Sejuani said firmly in front of the bonfire, "But at the same time, this also means that she has finally left her lair!"
"But this is meaningless, we can't catch her in the mountains!" Udyr frowned, "We are not familiar with the mountains and rivers here. Even if she leaves the thick wall, we can't catch her.
Cunning mouse!"
"But the mice always come home!" Sejuani said with a firm look, "She will never give up on Frostport. Without Ashe personally taking charge, Frostport will be very fragile!"
Almost at the same time, in a cave leeward of a mountain col, Ashe also conveyed his belief in victory to the most elite soldiers around him.
"The Claws of Winter can't hold on any longer." Although the lack of rest made Ashe's mental state very bad, she was still energetic and confident in front of the soldiers. "Their movement speed has been reduced.
There are a lot of people, and their morale is no longer high. They can’t even transport the supplies they collected west of the Neuskala Pass! As long as we drag on, victory will definitely belong to us!”
"Since we found them and followed them, these raiders have never been able to find new food or supplies. They don't have much to eat now!"
"If this continues, they will kill their own mounts to satisfy their hunger, and by then, no matter how strong the warrior is, they will eventually be annihilated by the cruel Breath of Anivia!"
……………………
Winter's Claw is still advancing, and Avarosa is still harassing.
This kind of battle situation, which is almost "you fight yours, I'll fight mine", has been going on for seven days.
Sejuani is still leading the forced march. She plans to reorganize a place where there are still one or two days away from the Frost Harbor, break the boat, and then travel day and night, relying on the maneuverability of the Juvask wild boar, to rush directly to Ai.
Before returning for reinforcements, I hope to arrive at Ningshuang Port and launch a siege!
Although it is a pity that Silas did not steal Ashe's power and could not pretend that Ashe was defeated and let Ningshuang Port collapse without a fight, but without Ashe's command, Ningshuang Port would probably not be able to hold on to their mother's fate.
return.
Sejuani believed that in just one morning or afternoon, the outstanding warriors of Winter's Claw would board the city of Frost Harbor and occupy the city!
Because without the war mother, the tribe will not be able to fight for a long time!
On the other side, Ashe firmly believes that if the Demacians in the south can use the tactics of clearing the country and defending the city, then so can we Avarosans!
Although the walls of Frost Harbor are not as tall as those of Forsbarrow, they are still enough to stop the Winter's Claw raiders!
When people are killed, they will die. As long as they stand on the city wall, even an untrained warrior can easily kill a battle-hardened warrior.
They are harassing and restraining themselves from outside, preventing Winter's Claw from getting supplies; there are soldiers inside relying on the city wall to defend, attacking each other from both inside and outside, acting as horns for each other. Even if Winter's Claw has more people and stronger warriors, the result is bound to fail.
After all, this is the West Freljord subcontinent. Avarosa can drag it here, but Winter's Claw cannot!
An attack that runs thousands of miles requires great speed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! A snow harassment, focusing on tiring the enemy.
After a fight, Sejuani and Ashe both found each other's weaknesses, and the two war mothers chose their bright cards at the same time.
In the bitingly cold Breath of Anivia, heavy snow fell one after another.
Less than two hundred miles away from Frost Harbor, the Winter Claw team stopped as usual and started eating.
This time, under Sejuani's order, they took out all the food, killed Enyuk who was not in such good condition among the team, and held a bonfire party of astonishing scale.
Then, just when Ash, who was monitoring them from afar, felt something was wrong, this huge team did not rest as before, but took the initiative to leave the warm and bright bonfire, urging Juvask who was getting impatient
Wild boar, once again set out at night.
After discovering the problem, Ashe immediately led the team to return for reinforcements, but even if they were more familiar with the nearby terrain, the two legs of this elite team were destined to be unable to outrun the four legs of the Juvask wild boar. Sejuani
Take the lead in this decisive battle.
After a night of marching, when the sky was dimming, Sejuani finally saw Frost Harbor from a distance.
Even if Ai Xi responded immediately and took a shortcut back, by the time she led the team back, it would probably be noon.
And in just one morning, the fate of the two tribes will be decided here.
……………………
Although she simply closed her eyes on Steel Mane's back, Sejuani's mental state was surprisingly good.
The height of the city wall of Ningshuang Port was higher than she expected, and the thickness was a bit abnormal. Although it no longer seemed feasible to directly urge Juvask wild boars to attack the city wall, the panicked expressions of the Avarosan people on the city wall still made her
She is in a good mood.
"Call that Silas over!" she shouted excitedly, "Who can take a bow, lend him a little bit of the power of the ice bloodline, and let him shoot an arrow on the city!"
According to Sejuani's request, Silas opened his bow and nocked an arrow, using all his strength, he shot an arrow on the top of the city.
Just when the Avarosa defenders were about to laugh at the opponent's poor shooting skills, large swaths of ice spread out where Silas shot.
At the same time, under the city wall, the soldiers of Winter's Claw shouted in unison.
"Ashe is dead!"
The shouts under the city wall made the defenders of Frost Harbor obviously shaken. Although someone quickly pulled out the arrow and confirmed that it was not the magic arrow used by Ashe, Sejuani took advantage of this opportunity and decisively ordered
The warriors of Winter's Claw attack.
Although they did not have professional siege equipment, the soldiers of Winter's Claw rushed to the city wall immediately, and then relied on the momentum of the forward rush to throw a large number of ropes to the city head, and then began to climb.
In Ningshuang Port, after some panic, the soldiers on the city wall also quickly counterattacked - a few warriors who could use Zhenbing weapons directly began to cut the ropes that had been soaked in animal and vegetable oils, without Zhenbing.
With ice weapons, warriors who cannot cut off the rope in a short time can hold their shields at the rope and wait for work. When someone climbs up, they will hit them with the shield.
Behind these front-line soldiers, there were more soldiers on the second line who were not engaged with the enemy. They used slings and other weapons to launch long-range attacks towards the bottom of the city wall.
Although this battle was primitive in terms of siege equipment and defensive equipment, in terms of combat intensity, even the Battle of the Gate of Sorrow between Demacia and Noxus could not compare to this frost.
Hong Kong War.
The Freljord's extreme weather and the magical Breath of Anivia make it impossible to use ordinary war equipment. In the extreme climate, even steel will become fragile and brittle.
But this does not prevent the offensive and defensive sides from taking advantage of the existing conditions to cause as much trouble as possible for the other party.
As for Winter's Claw, Sejuani, who wielded the Northern Wind Flail, personally led the assault and almost occupied a city wall on her second climb - and an Iceborn warrior like her had the ability to single-handedly change the situation in a local war.
, the number exceeds twenty people.
But even so, the Avarosans still held on to the city wall - just as Ashe planned, the towering city wall greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the defenders. Even an ordinary stone can be thrown from the city wall.
It's enough to cause a person's head to bleed.
In the battle to defend the city, Avarosa's large number of archers brought huge casualties to Winter's Claw. These archers who were arranged on the towers of the city wall took advantage of shooting from high places and easily penetrated
The Winter's Claw warriors didn't have much defense. A round of arrows came down, and no matter how brave the warrior was, they had to retreat temporarily.
During this period, Sejuani also tried to lead a team to attack the tower directly, but even without Ashe personally commanding, Avarosa's few remaining elites were still arranged near the tower, coupled with the close range shooting of archers, even if Sejuani
Even though Ni personally led the charge, she was unable to defeat them all at once.
In less than two hours, Winter's Claw's army launched three large-scale charges, but the towering walls of Frost Harbor still stood.
At daylight, seeing that the raid failed, Sejuani simply deployed her troops and launched a three-sided attack on Frost Harbor. She led her elite soldiers to wait for the opportunity, recharging her energy while waiting on the city wall.
exposed flaws.
As long as the enemies on any section of the city wall waver, Sejuani will lead her team to launch a fatal blow.
On the city wall, the Avarosa warriors who had not experienced many actual battles in the past were also a little confused by this sudden high-intensity battle - Avarosa's peaceful rise was not without experiencing battles, but such a powerful opponent
I really haven't seen it before.
In addition, Ashe took away the most elite group of soldiers. Although the defenders on the city wall still had a considerable advantage, their morale was not high at all, and their spirits began to become tense.
As Sejuani believes, Ashe's new Avarosa is indeed "a group of weaklings hugging each other for warmth." They are very united, but that is with Ashe around.
Even if they know that the fall of Ningshuang Port will ruin all their hard work; even if they know that behind them is the last stronghold of the tribe, with all their own people inside, these Avarosa warriors will still be afraid and cower.
A newcomer who has not experienced many battles cannot be compared with a veteran who has experienced many battles. Even Lux, who is extremely talented, performed extremely awkwardly in the simulated training of facing a beetle for the first time.
Therefore, even with the advantage of the city wall, the situation in this battle gradually began to tilt in the direction Sejuani expected.
Finally, when the sun fully rose and the heavy snow stopped for a while, the cruel death on the north wall of Ningshuang Harbor caused the defenders to waver.
Sejuani, who was keenly aware of this, launched a surprise attack without hesitation, and rushed towards the city wall with her long-prepared reserve team.
This time, a section of the city wall finally came down.
Then, before Sejuani could gain a firm foothold on the city wall, she let out a deep breath and sent out her men to open the city gate. A shrill eagle cry echoed across the battlefield.
Appearing at the same time as the eagle's cry, there was also a crystal-clear, spear-like magic arrow. This arrow shot from the mountain northeast of Ningshuang Port and exploded into an ice flower on the top of the city.
