Chapter 84 The Forbidden Mage Shows His Power Again
Monroe County, Lark Township.
"General, the intelligence just confirmed is that the main force of the orc army is heading towards Chang'an." Staff officer Mike rushed over to report to Rogers.
"Orcs, attack Chang'an?"
Rogers was stunned at first, then became very upset, "Oh, if I had known this, I, I would have..."
Just imagine——
If the coalition forces can join forces with the orcs, not only will they have a greater chance of winning, but the key is to minimize casualties.
But he just watched and missed the God-given opportunity.
"General, it's not too late." Mike reminded with a smile.
"That's right!"
Rogers immediately cheered up and said, "Send the order and the vanguard troops will break out of camp immediately and march to the Chang'an battlefield."
"yes!"
After receiving the military order, the 10,000 vanguard troops who had been training in Monroe County immediately packed up their gear and marched straight to Chang'an.
Following the army was a long transport team of grain and grass.
The farmers who transport the grain are not donated by all the lords of the alliance, but are organized voluntarily by the local lords in Monroe County. The alliance donates troops and grain, so the local lords also need to know something, right?
………
Graywater Riverside.
Unlike the fierce battle in Chang'an, the battle here has just come to an end.
After receiving the order, they attempted to cross the Gray Water River. The army of five thousand jackals and orcs responsible for containing the Huben Brigade had been defeated by the Tiger Brigade in one blow, leaving corpses strewn across the fields.
In front of the heavy cavalry at the peak of the third level, the jackals who had given Changan a headache earlier were already half cannon fodder.
"Brigade commander, the frontline special operations team has just sent back the news that the coalition forces have set off."
"How many troops are there in the enemy's forward troops? How are their weapons and equipment?"
Yue Yun, the commander of Huben Brigade, is riding on a war horse. He has a heroic appearance and a resolute face, which is vaguely like his father's style.
"About 10,000 people, mainly swordsmen and spearmen. Most of them are wearing leather armor, and a few are in iron armor."
"Only ten thousand? Brigadier, you can fight."
The speaker was Hu Wei, deputy commander of the Huben Brigade, and his eyes were eager to try.
"It is to teach the coalition forces an unforgettable lesson."
On the local battlefield by the Huishui River, Yue Yun, as the commander-in-chief, has the power to make on-the-spot decisions on the battlefield. "He ordered all the pursuing troops to return immediately, speed up the cleaning of the battlefield, seize the time to rest, and prepare for the second battle."
"yes!"
The officers and soldiers of the Huben Brigade are all very high-spirited to fight. Just now can only be regarded as a warm-up.
Next comes the highlight!
"Immediately report the battle report and the movements of the coalition forces to the Chang'an headquarters."
Yue Yun said as he handed the battle report he had just written to Fei Lian, who was next to him and was responsible for delivering the news.
The latter took the battle report and flew away.
………
Deciduous forest.
Like the Greywater River battlefield, the battle here also just ended.
Under the command of the young general Lin Shu, the Red Flame Brigade first showed the enemy weakness and lured the enemy deeper. When ten thousand orcs, mainly goblins and jackals, entered the encirclement, they gathered together and annihilated them.
Achieve a hearty victory.
Except for a few gnolls who escaped back to the deciduous forest, most of the orcs were dead.
Successfully completed the tasks assigned by the headquarters.
The Red Flame Brigade was cleaning the battlefield, resting, and waiting for follow-up orders from Chang'an.
Just one hour later.
Lin Shu received the order and asked his troops to penetrate directly into Haiwan Town.
………
With the defeat of Jingyao Gate, the battle in Chang'an City entered the most brutal stage.
Soldiers and horses from all walks of life tried their best.
To the east, the Sea Clan not only sent out three tide monsters again to form a hillside leading to the city, but also used another secret weapon - the Sea Demon Vine.
The vines, as tough as iron, spread to the top of the city in an instant, weaving a large net.
The Kraken and Naga followed the vine net and bullied themselves up.
Fortunately, the soldiers guarding the east, whether it was the garrison division or the Longxiang Brigade, all entered the second level. With the double buffs of "Light of National War" and "Vanguard of National War", they could barely hold on.
There was a slight situation in the south.
Kahn originally wanted the Behemoth to attack the city, but the latter stopped because he had a stomachache.
"Stomach upset?"
This happened at the critical moment. Kahn was going crazy, but he did not dare to forcefully give orders to the "little ancestor" of the Behemoth. He could only let Tiger and the Minotaur carry the siege ladder and forcibly attack the Ming Dynasty.
Demen.
Even the jackals to the west launched an offensive in order to show their presence.
Then he retreated under a hail of arrows
The most critical situation was in the north. Chang Yuchun, deputy general of the Chang'an garrison, personally went to the north to take charge of the unified command and dispatch of all the garrison troops in that direction.
General Yue Fei even sent someone to ask——
"Can Jingyao Gate be defended?"
If it really cannot be defended, Yue Fei can only activate a backup plan and send all the Kaiping Brigade and Leopard Tao Brigade in the reserve to the north, take the initiative to leave the city, and seek a decisive battle with the orcs.
"Tell General Yue that Jingyao Gate can be defended." Tang Jing answered on behalf of Chang Yuchun.
Taking the initiative to go out of the city to fight is the last resort.
Chang'an's goal is to use the advantage of the city as much as possible to kill the most enemy troops at the minimum cost of casualties. Wait until the enemy troops are weak, and then send the reserve team out of the city to give the enemy a fatal blow.
The siege has just begun. Although the enemy has suffered casualties, they are extremely limited.
Leave the city at this time.
Although it is possible to win, it cannot achieve the goal of killing the enemy on a large scale.
The enemy is likely to come back.
On the other side of the Gray Water River, 100,000 coalition troops are watching eagerly. By then, won't they be attacked from both sides?
"Sir, this, this is not a child's play."
Chang Yuchun's expression changed slightly. Even he was not sure that he could guard Jingyao Gate.
"Follow me."
Tang Jing did not explain, but led the imperial guard battalion up the tower.
Chang Yuchun followed closely.
At this time, the area around Jingyao Gate was already densely crowded with pig-headed warriors.
As far as you can see, they are all pig heads!
Seeing the city gate breached, the pig-headed army showed unprecedentedly high morale, facing the rain of arrows and falling rocks above their heads without even blinking.
All of them are brave and not afraid of death.
When Tang Jing saw this, he took out a spell scroll from the storage ring with an expressionless face and tore it open.
"Earth stabbing technique!"
A halo of 15 meters by 15 meters flashed out of thin air on the ground in front of the city gate.
The next moment.
Densely dense thorns appeared on the ground, as hard as bamboo shoots.
"Pfft! Pfft!"
The thorns were stabbed one by one, just like skewering meat skewers, piercing the body of the pig-headed man crowded in front of the city gate.
More than 1,500 pig-headed warriors were killed instantly.
The scene was extremely bloody.
The originally dense army of pig-headed men was cleared of an empty space in an instant.
To be precise.
It is a Shura hell covered with earth thorns.
"This, this..."
Even Chang Yuchun, who had been hard-hearted for a long time, couldn't help but feel palpitated when he saw such a scene.
mage.
So powerful?
According to common sense, the ground stabbing technique with a coverage area of only 15 meters * 15 meters should not cause such huge damage. The only blame is that the pig-headed people were crowded too tightly in order to form a combined force.
It's almost like the front is touching the back.
On average, a pig-headed warrior only occupies an area of 0.5 meters*0.25 meters.
Isn't it just a victory delivered to your door?
"The Forbidden Mage profession has been upgraded to level 19!"
"The Forbidden Mage profession has been upgraded to level 20!"
Tang Jing was able to rise two levels out of thin air with just this move, instantly replenishing the mana that had been drained by the "Earth Sting Technique".
The body is filled with mana again.
This was mainly due to the fact that there were more than 1,500 pig-headed men in front of them, all of which were hunted by Tang Jing alone, taking away 100% of the experience points.
Instead of relying on teamwork to gain experience points like before.
"Gudong!!!"
As he watched helplessly, nearly one-third of his companions died instantly. Even if he was as mentally strong as a pig-headed man, his heart stopped involuntarily and his face turned ashen.
The high morale suddenly dropped to freezing point.
The pig-headed man standing at the boundary of the ground stabbing technique subconsciously took a step back.
Too scary!
"Damn human mage!!!"
In the Chinese army's formation, Pig, the leader of the pig-headed men, who was watching the battle from a high place, could not help cursing when he saw the heavy casualties among his people, his expression extremely ugly.
There is no more arrogance like before.
"Send the order, continue the attack!!!"
Despite this, Pigeon still gave the order to attack with a firm heart.
The city gate has been breached.
It makes no sense that the army should stop advancing at this time.
As for the blood debt caused by the death of the clan members, when they entered Chang'an City, they could only seek revenge.
He is even ready to massacre the city!
"Boom! Boom!!!!"
As the war drums sounded again, Pig sent out all the trolls and most of the pig-headed men, leaving only five hundred pig-headed warriors as the final reserve.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
As the effect of the Earth Thorn spell dissipates, all the Earth Thorns dissipate without a trace.
Only pig-headed corpses were left everywhere.
Under the urging of the war drums, the pig-headed army regained its strength and advanced towards the city gate again.
Just then.
Tang Jing expressionlessly took out another spell scroll from the storage ring.
