Chapter 543： Pass

The scorched General Safilal was sitting in his command post, because he had not been on the front line to fight directly with the enemy for a long time. As a great magister, he was now slightly blessed.

Although he can still wear his previous armor, everyone can see that this armor is no longer suitable for him.

Staring at the battle map in front of him, General Safiral was accustomed to the gift from Ailan Hill. This map was drawn by Ailan Hill, accurately marking all the terrain, almost exactly the same.

This is very scary. In the past magical age, having such a detailed map is simply unimaginable. All commanders can only send out scouts frequently to obtain information about the terrain around them.

Gathering all this information in your own mind and then commanding troops to use these terrains to fight is a skill that a senior commander must learn.

But now, this skill does not seem to be so important, because a huge map is placed in front of everyone's eyes, and it can be clearly arranged how it needs to be arranged, and it does not require any effort to compare.

"The devil put a lot of devil dogs on the front, and our 1st army group was trapped in place... If we can't rush to the Volan Pass, then our line of defense is dangerous." A general said in a low tone, pointing to the map. The last important defensive node marked, said to the gloomy Safilar.

This general, who has always had no good feelings for Ailan Hill, is in a very heavy mood now, because the devil's counterattack has caused serious mistakes in many of his previous decisions.

As the opposition within Gricken, Safiral has always had some guard against Ailan Hill. In his opinion, the presence of other people's troops in Greken's territory is an irritating thing.

So he tried his best to squeeze away the 9th Army Group that Ailan Hill had arranged on the front line of Gricken, and squeezed this unit to the second line to rest.

Because the demon force at that time had been defeated, and the main demon force of Dongjin had also been annihilated by a nuclear bomb, Greken was filled with the joy of victory up and down, and there were more people supporting General Safiral.

Everyone feels that the obnoxious 9th Army of Ailan Hill should be placed on the second-line defensive position first, and then find a reason to send away this difficult and difficult **** in a few days, so that the complete sovereignty of Greken can be restored. Up.

Therefore, in order to take care of the overall situation and take over the command of the imperial concubine Capeluna, General Alfred, who temporarily commanded the 9th Army Group, ordered the troops to retreat and stationed on the front line of Alan.

And the Gricken opposition factions, who had achieved their goals, began to think of ways to get the 9th Army to roll into the Eternal Empire to be stationed...

As a result, this proposal was rejected by the Lonsadre of Greken, so the 9th Army Group is still stationed in Alan, and the safety of the northern line of Greken can also be guaranteed.

It's just that now, the safe northern demon has not attacked. On the contrary, the demon forces have concentrated their superior forces and pinched the central cluster of Gricken, which is the soft persimmon composed of the Magister, the Dragon Knight, and the Giant Horse Cavalry!

Volan Pass is a more important defensive position guarded by the Magic Legion. If the pass is breached by the demon forces, then whether it is attacking Alan northward, attacking the flank of the 9th Army Group, or detouring south and attacking the flank of the 1st Army Group in Gricken, you will gain a huge battle advantage.

"Order the 1st Legion to go up for reinforcements! Be sure to defeat the devil's offensive!" In the end, Safilal made his own judgment and pushed up the most elite troops in his hands to reduce the pressure on the front line.

The 1st Legion is the main force of the magicians of Greken, and their combat effectiveness is still very strong. This army has dragon knights and a large number of magicians, and it has always been the absolute main force of the Greken army before the formation of the Ailan Hill standard army.

Even now, Grecan has the 1st and 2nd Armies in the Ailan Hill mode. The 1st Army is still the main force, receiving the first level of logistics supplies and salary.

...

At Volan Pass, the tall city wall had already collapsed, and the rubble was scattered on both sides of the city wall, making these originally solid fortifications look like a mound.

The fortifications here were destroyed during the last time the demon invaded. After being retaken from the demon forces, although they have been repaired, they still have not been able to return to their original level.

Now only a part of the original tall city wall remains, and the rest is a parapet built temporarily by stone bars and sandbags.

Standing behind these fortifications are Grecan's traditional infantry. They are holding huge shields and spears burning with magical flames, and they are constantly fighting against the devil like the ocean.

"The first row of soldiers retreat! Replenish the magic energy liquid! The second row of soldiers step forward! Raise the shield!" A commander took the long sword in his hand, pointed forward, and loudly ordered the soldiers in front of him to rotate.

Above the crowded phalanx, a thick magical defense barrier blocked some of the flying fireball magic. In the gap in the shield wall directly in front, a spear was pierced one by one, stabbing the demon soldier who rushed to the front. .

From time to time, soldiers fell down with arrows. These black bows and arrows quenched with the poison configured by the devil would occasionally pierce the gaps in the armor.

Farther away, huge demon troops are trying to break through those Greaken soldiers who no longer have the protection of the wall, and these Greaken soldiers still behave very well when facing an enemy three times taller than themselves. tenacious.

Countless magic attacked the giant warriors of these demon forces. Fireballs or lightning hit the target one after another, screaming at these giant beasts that looked like houses.

A giant dragon tore up a struggling demon bat, and then spit out a huge dragon flame at the demon army under its feet.

Under the control of the dragon knight, it swiftly swept past the phalanx of the demon force, and the eloquent dragon flame swooped along with it, swallowing all the demons in a straight line.

"Ah!" The armor of the demon who was ignited by Long Yan melted, and the flesh and blood in the armor instantly turned black. These demons screamed and struggled in the flames, and in just a few seconds, they were roasted into coke and shattered in the flames.

As the dragon slaughtered the demon forces, the demon forces were constantly compressing human defenses.

On the huge city wall, a demon climbed to the top of the city. Before he could wave his weapon in his hand, he was thrust down by an oncoming spear.

He screamed together with the ladder under his feet, and smashed into the devil's square, causing another scream.

After the soldiers on the city wall overthrew the ladder, they immediately backed up two steps. The archers behind them continued to move forward and tightened their bowstrings against the densely packed demons under the city.

"Let it!" Behind the crenellation, Commander Griken with a visor shouted loudly. As he shouted, all the archers on the head of the city released their bowstring palms almost at the same time.

"Boom!" With the vibrating sound of bowstrings, a row of bows and arrows swooped into the phalanx formed by the demon forces.

Those demons were also holding shields, but more demons had no defense at all. They were just wearing armor, but those armors couldn't stop the magical bows and arrows fired by Greken soldiers.

As a result, the moment these bows and arrows smashed into the crowd, the demon army fell a large part. However, the following demons immediately made up for the position of their companions, and behind them another phalanx of demons was constantly crowding forward.

"Where are the reinforcements? Are the reinforcements yet to come?" The officer standing at the head of the city, looking at the tiredness of his subordinates, called out another officer in the distance.

The officer was helping a soldier who was hit by a demon bow and arrow to stop the bleeding. He turned around, covered in blood, and replied loudly: "The news for reinforcements was sent out an hour ago!"

Just as he turned around and shouted, a dragon knight in the distance was directly hit by fireball and fell behind the demon army's phalanx.

Soon the place of the fall was surrounded by demons, and just a few seconds later, the dragon knight who insisted on fighting to the last moment was submerged in a sea of ​​demons.

"Fireball!" On the side of the low breast wall, after a row of magical attacks by the human forces, the demon forces stepped on the body of their burning companion and rushed up again. Then the human magician played a new row of fireballs to force the demons near the breast wall back.

The two sides just saw each other back and forth, and the troops running out of ammunition and food on the human side began to increase little by little.

"Let the giant horse cavalry countercharge! No matter how slow it is, it will be too late." The officer in the lead shouted hysterically.

"But... they rushed in, they might not be able to come back!" An officer chopped down the demon in front of him and replied in a whimper.

"This is an order! For Gricken!" The headed officer insisted on his order regardless.

"Yes! sir!" The officer who heard the order retreated two steps, looked at the soldiers on the battlefield, gritted his teeth: "Let the giant horse cavalry countercharge! Immediately! Immediately!"

Not long after, a heavy armored cavalry appeared on the battlefield. They waved their spears, faced the demon army like the ocean, and clamped their horses.

"Drive! Drive!" These knights buttoned their visors, shouted loudly, levelled their spears, and moved slowly toward the black ocean.

"Long live Grecan!" When they ran quickly, all the cavalry shouted together, shaking the earth.
