Chapter 897: Crazy Battle
Under Li Ran's deliberate construction, the group of soldiers were on the verge of madness and burst out with unimaginable attack power. Facing the enemy who had been a little tired after a day of hard fighting, they quickly pulled the entire front.
Although under the command of Marquis Viola, the defense capabilities of the opponent's troops were significantly enhanced, and they were impeccable in terms of replenishing troops or following up in batches. Even if the central army was trapped for a mile, the entire front line was still as bent as the bowstrings, but as Li Ran continued to send troops, Duke Mednache in the distance was still shocked.
This duke would never have thought that someone could bring the potential of the troops to such an extreme level, and there was no confusion in his command, and he defeated the legion commanded by himself and Viola, who had the title of Imperial Rock Shield, to such a situation.
At this moment, looking at the warriors who were staring at the blood-red eyes and rushing towards him with a sword, the duke even had an illusion that he felt that he was facing a group of lifeless demons.
But another thing that made him even more depressed was that although the Demon Legion fought extremely crazy, it was prone to chaos and fighting alone. This was also a common problem among the demon legions in the underground world of Eoff. However, the in front of him was not only crazy, but also could follow the commander's instructions without any mistakes, which made him a little confused.
At this time, Marquis Viola also had another feeling. He had been caught by the other party once before, but in fact he was still a little dissatisfied, but today, he personally felt the command ability of the Marquis Telres.
As a famous general, he would not see the opponent deliberately consume their troops with medium and low-level troops, nor would he put the blame on the troops being exhausted. The opponent can mobilize all troops, which is the opponent's ability. With only more than 200,000 low and intermediate troops and tens of thousands of high-level troops, he could consume his more than 300,000 troops to such an extent. This Marquis Viola was even more surprised.
Because this person is very clear that for a commander, it is actually much more difficult to command low-level troops than to command high-level or above. In addition, the limitations of low-level and intermediate-level troops, so few commanders will really spend time learning how to command a huge and fragile low-level legion. So at the moment after the battle in the morning, he saw the low-level and intermediate-level troops coming from the other side like a tide, and he felt the terribleness of this new marquis.
He could hear it very clearly if the other party used magic amplification to inspire and inspire, and even stimulated those high-level and above troops. He put himself in his shoes and thought that if he was a warrior on the other side, he would rush over at this time. Even if he had only high-level strength, he would rush up and take a bite when he saw the legendary army.
This is a real famous general. Looking at the figure standing faintly on the chariot in the distance, filled with fire and blood mist, Marquis Viola couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's a pity that such a person did not appear a few years ago, otherwise our empire would not be in this situation."
After nearly an hour of rushing, the opponent's defense line was finally broken through by the army led by Li Ran. With the roars that stirred the battlefield, Viola had no choice but to retreat.
Just as Li Ran was cheering and was about to kill the other side, he chased him for only a few miles. With a sudden rain of arrows falling from the sky, they actually found a new line of defense in the distance. With the return of Marquis Viola, the soldiers here also stood out from these fortifications, which were all powerful troops above the level, with a total of more than 10,000 people.
With Li Ran's order, a barbarian viscount city lord behind him had no choice but to blew the horn to stop the attack. The army that was rushing to assault began to gather again from the defensive troops.
He looked back and saw that after a whole day of fighting, all the soldiers behind him were covered in blood. He just didn't know that the ones on them were their own and those on the enemy, but at this moment Li Ran knew that he could not rush forward any longer.
Although he didn't know when the defense line was built here, in the case of fortifications, the opponent also left tens of thousands of high-level troops and numerous human archers. If he wanted to attack with his current troops, he would definitely suffer heavy casualties and might even lose the victory he had already obtained.
After discussing with several city lords who arrived, Li Ran finally had no choice but to withdraw his troops, but the corresponding prisoners and fortifications still had to be cleared out. At this time, while guarding against the other party's attack, the other city lords also began to quickly command personnel to escort the prisoners and burn down all the items related to the Medenache army they had captured before.
After this battle, the army of Duke Mednachi, whose troops were sharply reduced, no longer dared to camp as close as Elicimo City. After listing the second defensive camp built after Marquis Viola's return as an outpost camp, an army of less than 250,000 people left retreated to a dangerous place that was easy to defend but difficult to attack, leaving the road to besiege this large city.
At this moment, the gate to the outside world of Li Ran was initially opened, but the city lords who had not yet been compromised in the few cities still did not dare to go back to support. One was that there were Mednache's reconnaissance sentries everywhere outside the city, and the other was that after such a long period of war, their troops were also seriously injured and injured. Without being able to replenish their troops, even if they went back now, it would be useless. Maybe they would become prey to the door.
If they want to replenish their troops, with their current situation, unless they completely defeat the other party, it would be impossible for so many prisoners in the city to surrender.
But despite this, this battle opened up a road to the outside world for them. While sending a team of soldiers to clear the opponent's scouts, they also changed from being completely passive to being proactive. After sending some cavalry to meet the family of the city lords and some important withdrawn personnel and troops, Li Ran also continued to attack and harass him, trying to find out the weakness of the opponent's formation, and attempted to give another fatal blow before the opponent's reinforcements arrived.
However, after the last battle, whether it was Duke Mednache's idea or Marquis Viola's method, they not only built several defensive camps on the road leading to their main business, but also deployed heavy troops in many dangerous locations. Even the main business also strengthened layers of alert, and various fortifications were everywhere, which made Li Ran really afraid to launch an attack easily.
Fortunately, with the return of the Knights, after bringing back the families of the previous city lords and some of the main personnel, tens of thousands of elite soldiers were taken back. In addition, through Elicimo's continuous persuasion of surrender, some of the soldiers who were already dissatisfied with Duke Mednachi's behavior accepted their recruitment.
