Clancia, kenzon.
Although it is late autumn now, the mountains and wilderness outside the city are still green, and the mist in the mountains is cold.
This is the southernmost side of clancia, which was once a westerly border. It's named after a kind of tall and straight pine around. This kind of pine has hard wood, and its shape is like a sword, so the local people call it sword pine.
In the past westerly wind, this is not an important place. The only thing that people can think about is the black pine river beside the city. You can go south along this river to Vilga.
People who haven't been to the local area may think that it should be an important business town, but in fact, because it is the upper reaches of the heisong River, the river is shallow, it is difficult to take a big boat, and there are many mountains around, so the trade between westerly wind and Vilga has been going to Hopland through spacious land.
However, with the change of times, the division of Vilga, the establishment of clancia, the heisong River assigned to frost rose, and now it has become the bridgehead of clancia's alliance with frost rose.
After receiving the news of the deployment of frost rose, clancia also recruited 80000 surrounding troops to guard here.
Because there are many mountains and sparsely populated areas around here, there are only about 50000 people living in the city for a long time. With so many people, eating becomes a big problem. Moreover, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and the supply is relatively reluctantly. If we continue to deploy troops, it will be difficult to support.
On the iron gray stone wall, general SEG looked down at the quiet river below and asked the adjutants around him.
"When will the Legion of frost roses arrive?"
Replied the adjutant in a competent uniform“ My Lord, according to the message from the new Vega League, they passed turbulence City three days ago. It's about 100 miles from here. It should be fast. "
"Although the statues are strong and strong, they are extremely heavy. If they are transported by ship, they will have to get off the ship and walk up to 60 miles away“
"Frost rose has so many boats?" SEG continued. He had just come from the capital and didn't know much about the situation in the south of clancia.
"Not before, but they have swallowed half of Vilga, they can enlist a large number of merchant ships, and they are said to have built armored ships."
Two years later, with the help of the dayas chamber of Commerce, frost rose began to launch the first armored ships, and the "great Oriental" is one of the most famous experimental ships. Some of the other armored ships, although some of their performance is not satisfactory, are not wasted. Now they are just used to transport magic statues.
"If the Legion of demons is really in the city, it will be difficult to resist with our current forces and means." The adjutant said anxiously. He had received the secondary military education in clancia and understood the strength and strength of the legions of various countries.
"Yes, but as soldiers, it's our duty to guard here and not let the enemy pass."
"Even if we will lose in the end, we should give the enemy heavy damage and loss, and let his strength weaken step by step." SEG's voice was as steady and firm as a rock in the mountains.
For many soldiers in clancia, the time of peace is so short. It seems that they fought against the aristocrats with westerly wind just yesterday. The blood and perseverance of the early uprising still have not dissipated. Now, after receiving the order, even though we know that the battle will be very dangerous, no one complains and escapes. Instead, we are used to following the military order.
Although the west wind is declining, the extraordinary people in its army are often several times more than that of clancia. In order to defeat such an enemy, clancia's army construction can be said to have reached the acme. Their discipline and fighting will are unimaginable to outsiders. They can continue to march forward without flinching when the number of troops is reduced by more than 70% until the enemy's magic power and strength are exhausted and they are surrounded and killed on the spot.
Sacrifice is common. Death may be very scary for the first time, but after seeing too much, it makes me numb and used to it.
In the face of such a situation, the high-level officers and men of clancia are proud and helpless. They are proud of having such fearless soldiers, but they have no other choice. In the absence of high-level supermen, they can only defeat the enemy in this way.
Fortunately, now that the civil war is over, we can finally lay down our swords and soldiers, cultivate ourselves and enhance our national strength.
But there's no such thing as a half-time break in this world. Other people take advantage of your illness to kill you. Frost rose saw that clancia's situation was not completely stable, so she took the opportunity to make trouble and went north according to their plan a long time ago.
The reason why we didn't act a year or two ago was that there was no proper means to transport the statue. Although the magic image Legion is powerful, it is difficult to become a powerful means of attack because of its heavy body and slow progress.
Now, when the time was a little ripe, they enlisted domestic ships and their armored ships to prepare for the northern expedition to the Central Plains and enter the once westerly hinterland, a vast plain connecting the seven Xuehua countries, which was also the only way for frost rose to develop and grow.
When SEG finished his inspection of the city defense and walked down the city wall, a dense sound of metal friction and collision was heard by the mountains and rivers in the distance, and then he slowly approached north along the river bank.
There are scattered scratches and dust on the gray and silver steel. In the early morning mist, these war machines made of steel stepped on the gravel and soil, leaving huge footprints on the ground.
A little dew condenses on the steel shell, then slides down, takes part of the dust away, falls on the grass, and is trampled on the ground by later demons. With the sound of metal rubbing and trees collapsing, these demons pushed away the shrubs and trees in the mountains and opened the way for the rear troops.
On one side of the iron statue team, a 10 meter high statue stopped at the side of the road. Its back cabin door opened, and a man in a wizard's robe poked his head out. Soon after, a young wizard came from behind and landed on the statue's shoulder.
"What's going on ahead?"
"I have seen the wall of Jiansong city. This city is built on the hillside. Below it is the heisong River, which is an insurmountable danger in the mountain valley."
"Hoo, here we are at last." Later the mage was relieved.
"These days can be said to be the most difficult time for me in the past ten years. In our early years in ruerna, the magic statues were mostly used to defend the city and form a defense line. After all, verdure was our number one threat, and we didn't consider too many transportation problems when designing. Today, after trekking in the mountains, we know how inconvenient this design is. Along the way, about 20% of the magic statues have to be parked in the middle of the road for maintenance due to faults. Now it's finally arrived. "
"But we got there, didn't we? As long as you occupy this city and use it as a bridgehead, the statue Legion will get a stable maintenance and supply point, and then it will be much easier to attack the interior of clancia. "
"Well, let's send a signal. The steel axe army will be on standby. Half a day later, it will attack the city at noon. The copper number and the fire thorn army will reinforce one after another to win the city before dark."
As the voice fell, a signal arrow with a rapid sound rose and burst in the air. Then these gray and silver iron demons began to change their formation and slowly spread out.
On the other side of the city, the sound of the bell kept echoing. A soldier started up in the officer's cry, picked up his weapon and rushed to the city wall.
