Chapter 730 Accompanying and bad news
Chapter 731: The troops are at the city!
"boom……"
The loud noises echoed throughout the dim sky, like a death knell that echoed in the center of the politics and military of the Kingdom of China. Above the head of the King's New City, the war smoke that did not rise could not help but fluctuate, forming one after another of bad and strange patterns, which was extremely grand.
However, unfortunately, no one has the mood to watch and appreciate the stunning scenes that were rare in a century. On the entire huge battlefield, inside and outside the strong city wall that had been raised to a terrifying height of 60 meters, all soldiers from both sides of the enemy and us were attacking and defending with all their strength until the moment their lives were over, and there was no time to look up and appreciate the sky that was almost a rare sight in a century.
In the dense rain of arrows and magic that flew up and down like a thunderous sky, the soldiers on both sides thought almost the same thing, that was to do their best to kill the opponent in front of them, and then let themselves survive.
It is precisely because of this idea that the offense and defense have pushed the battle to a fierce stage almost from the beginning, and each tried its best to use all means to attack the opponent, trying every means to make the opponent pay more.
However, judging from the comparison of strength between the two sides, the beast army that sieges the city on the front battlefield clearly have absolute initiative and advantages, and the offensive launched fierce charges again and again on the strong city in front of them, with a strong momentum and momentum that they wanted to conquer it in one fell swoop.
On the other hand, the defender of Xincheng, which was on the defensive side, was much more passive. Not only were he frequently led by the enemy like a tide outside the city and was exhausted, but he was also suppressed by the enemy in terms of the number of strong people. He suffered several great losses in a row and was almost rushed into the city gate by the orc strong orc among the enemies, opening the door of life that concerns the life and death of the entire Xincheng, making the new city a little ruined.
Fortunately, although the enemy had a huge advantage in human harmony, the new city army, as the defensive side, also had a high city and a high-level advantage in the geographical advantage. In this way, we have overcome the difficulties several times without any danger and did not let the enemy succeed.
If there was no new city, then the city walls that were as high as 60 meters after becoming the capital Kuobukuo, if it was not for the city walls that were built in Xincheng Kuobukuo were all perverted and solid, and if it was not for the city gates that had been built in Xincheng Kuobukuo, the city gates that had been built in Xincheng Kuobukuo had been replaced by the Regent with a very vision to Misilian steel with extremely high resistance and exemption to magic and physical siege.
Then, it will be difficult for a group of soldiers guarding the city to imagine what the new city will look like now.
Without these, the new city, which had only 50,000 people, would not have been able to stick to it until now.
Faced with the oppression of millions of beast army, perhaps the defense of Xincheng would be destroyed by the powerful beast army at the beginning, and thus completely fell.
Fortunately, the Regent Rant, the second-in-century figure in the Kingdom, seemed to have foreseeed all of this. He cast a terrifying city wall in front of him very early, and forced Lei Chan, the Crazy Lion King, who was the third-in-century figure in the Kingdom, to be a coolie for a month, and forced the amazingly long city walls around him to fire, making it extremely hard and hard to hurt. At the same time, it turned the entire city gate made of ordinary rough iron, which was extremely wasteful and costly, and it was extremely luxurious to turn into Misilian steel with extremely high resistance and exemption to magic and physical siege.
All of this was complained about by the residents who originally lived in the new city, and even some politicians and officials, generals and soldiers in the army were quite dissatisfied with this meaningless act of expending the people and causing money.
However, when the Beast Army emerged from behind the horizon of the grassland like a ghost at midnight, and launched a tide attack on the New City, which was almost unprepared, the residents and officials and soldiers of the New City who were dissatisfied with such meaningless actions that were exhausted and damaged by money were shocked to find that the meaningless actions that the Regent King Zhan had done before were so correct, so correct that if it were not for these things, the entire New City would have been directly flattened when the Beast Army launched its first wave of attack.
After seeing the orc's savage and powerful attacking strength, the crowd suddenly felt how wise and wise His Highness the Regent was, and could foresee in advance that the new city would face such a catastrophe as Jiantian one day.
However, while secretly blaming and glading himself, the crowd also knew clearly that under the high-intensity attacks such as orcs, the loss of the royal city was only a matter of time.
Although the royal city, as the political and military center of a country, has accumulated a lot of food and resources in normal times, it is not afraid of a protracted war at all. Even if it is surrounded for a year or two, it doesn't care at all.
However, the huge disadvantage in the source of the army still makes Xincheng absolutely passive, and even if he wants to be tough, he can't be tough.
At most ten days, oh no, at most five days, the defenders in the city will be wiped out by the continuous offensive like the orcs, and they will fall into a desperate situation where there is no soldiers to defend.
By then, the Xincheng, which has no strong enough power to resist, will be defeated by the beast army and completely captured. Once it reaches this situation, even if Rand, as the regent, is more intelligent than the sky, will never have the power to turn the world back, and can only watch the capital be destroyed in his own hands.
In fact, even Rand did not expect this situation. It can be said that he was not in the script that Rand had planned long ago, and it was completely an emergency.
However, due to Rand's prudence and the safety of Ye Piao and his family, this was the most difficult period of China's economy, which was exhausted and cost countless manpower and material resources to build this majestic miracle city, turning the new city into a real political and moral center.
Otherwise, with Rand's savings, at that time, coincided with the lowest economic tide after the founding of China, Rand, as the regent of a country, would definitely not do this.
However, fortunately this is the case. Otherwise, in this sudden situation, the new city would be directly captured by the beast army like a destruction. How could there be such a thing as before? The force of resistance is temporarily in a safe state.
These days, whenever Lanter thinks of this, a bitter smile will appear on his face.
Others think that he is far-sighted and predicts things like a god, but only Rand himself knows that what others call "fore-sighted and predicts things like a god" is simply a mistaken problem. He didn't know in advance that what happened today would happen.
Otherwise, even if Rant is killed, Rant will definitely not send a stupid lion, a brainless idiot, to guard the key fortress portal of Tushishi Fort.
It can be said that the failure of the Tushishi Fort has almost caused China to be defeated on the front battlefield with the three forces. Rant couldn't even imagine that if the Tushishi Fort was broken and the news of the New City Beast Army was surrounded by the New City Beast Army spread, the other two major snobs would make a surprising reaction.
Perhaps, the days when the army marched straight into China and attacked the land of China from three sides were not far away.
However, I don’t know how the progress of my third brother Ye Piao is. If things can succeed there, there may be a glimmer of hope for a comeback. But if things fail there, even Lant dares not imagine what a tragic ending this country that was built up with difficulty and hardships between him and his third brother Ye Piao.
"boom……"
"boom……"
"boom……"
The catapults outside the city were still constantly throwing huge rocks, smashing the giant hard on the city body as high as 60 meters, making terrifying sounds of collisions that made people thrill.
Closed his eyes, he gently leaned on the dragon rider sitting on the deepest platform of the palace hall, which only Ye Piao could sit alone. The expression on Rand's face was still so calm at this moment, making people unable to see any sense of anxiety and worry, as if he didn't care about the outcome of this war at all.
However, if there was someone standing beside him at this time, he would definitely notice some subtle movements of Rand's fingers.
From these subtle movements, it is not difficult to see that at this time, Rand did not seem as calm and shaking as he showed on the surface. His palms, which were clenched into fists, were clearly showing Rand's worry and anxiety in his heart at this time.
However, he is different from other weak-willed people and is just a good concealment.
"Squeak...squeak...squeak!"
The gate of the main palace of the Palace was slowly pushed open, making a squeaking sound that made people feel harsh at this moment. Immediately afterwards, a tall figure quickly walked into the main palace with the sunlight shot from the outside into the hall. In a short while, he walked to not far from the lower head of Rand, and stood quietly below the steps below the throne.
"You are here, Moxius, what's the situation outside? Is the enemy breaking through the city gate? I think our soldiers are almost dead. Alas, it's too difficult to resist the siege of a million orcs by only 50,000 people. Even if they break through the city gate, it would be normal. If there are 100,000 defenders in the city now, with the strong city defense of the new city, I would also have the confidence to compete with the beast army outside the city for a month or two. Unfortunately, our number is too small, so few that it can't withstand the consumption of war, so that I can't use my own strategy but no soldiers to display it. Alas, it seems that it really responds to the third brother's words, it's hard to cook without rice!"
As if he felt the identity of the visitor, Rand's body sitting on the dragon throne suddenly shook slightly, and then slowly opened a pair of blood-red eyes that seemed to have not been closed for several days or nights. He showed a bitter smile at Moxios who was standing below, and sighed helplessly.
Rant didn't need to hide anything about Moxius, the old Chinese man who accompanied Ye Piao to "open up the land" from the "primitive period". He showed his disapproval of this war in front of Moxius's eyes, and at the same time he vented the extreme depression in his heart.
However, this does not mean that Rand has given up on this battlefield and is ready to wait for death.
In fact, Mohus, who knew Rand's temper, knew very well that Rand would never give up halfway. The reason why he said this to himself was just the proof that he had made up his mind to make the worst plan to fight the enemy to the end.
"Your Highness Regent, you have been worried that the city gate has not yet been lost. Although the current situation is already very unfavorable for us, it is fortunate that the control of the city gate is still in our hands, and it is under the command of Apeter himself. There should be no problem in a short period of time. I returned to the business this time to report to your Highness the current situation so that your Highness can make strategic adjustments that are more beneficial to us. Your Highness, in fact, each of us has never given up hope. We will not give up until the very end. I believe that Your Majesty Ye will definitely come back in time. By then, these orcs are just a group of clowns who are jumping on the beam."
He owed slightly, and Mohus gave a gentle salute to Rant on the throne. Although his face was tired, he was still calm overall. The light from his eyes also showed a hint of firmness.
It has to be admitted that Moxius has changed a lot in the past two years. He is no longer the Feng-type advanced mage who was threatened by Ye Piao and was half-forced to join. At this time, Moxius was dressed much simpler, and at first glance, he looked like a look of unobtrusive Mo. Apart from his expression and expression, he was more mature and calm, he could not tell that he was a powerful magician and the noble identity of the Marquis of the Kingdom of China.
It is no exaggeration to say that Mohusse has now become a terrifying person who is calm and calm and knows how to keep a low profile.
Even Rand, who was the Regent, watched Mohus grow up bit by bit, could not admit this.
However, now Rant obviously has no time and energy to appreciate Mohusse. The only thing left in his eyes is this war that he has no chance to win on the surface, and the heavy burden of the Conservative Family on his shoulders.
"Don't always put your hopes on Arenas. What he does there may be ten times or a hundred times more dangerous than what we are experiencing now. Therefore, we must rely on ourselves for many things and make the worst plans in advance. Because this time, it is very likely that the distance cannot be dissolved in the near fire."
Rand's words were light, but firm, and there was a hint of exclusivity in his eyes when Rand looked at Mohus. It was obvious that he had already made the worst plan, but he only said it to Mohus now.
Looking at Moxius's eyes in front of him, a ray of light burst out. Rant skipped his words just now and continued, "Okay, Moxius, say something useful now. Tell me how many soldiers we have to fight and how much losses are there in the generals."
"Your Highness..."
Hearing Rand's inquiry, Mohus immediately cheered up and began a detailed report, striving to give the most prepared and real numbers to the only wise man in front of him who could turn the battle's ending.
"According to the statistics of Apeter not long ago, we lost a lot of losses in the past two days, about 20,000 people, and this does not include the number of injured people who cannot participate in the battle. It can be said that the number of people we can actually participate in the battle is no more than 25,000, and it may be even less. The manpower is obviously unable to take into account all the defense work of the city walls. Fortunately, the commander of the Beast*** Army is quite decisive and just stares at our frontal attack. The other three sides are small-scale feint attacks, which we can still deal with for the time being. However, if the number of people continues to decrease, there will be a gap problem in defense. After all, we must maintain the morale of the master on the frontal front to deal with the orc attack. If the number continues to decrease, even if we want to defend, we may not be able to defend."
While saying that, he frowned. Mohus said this and paused slightly, and then continued to say: "As for the generals, we have suffered a lot of losses. We have lost six levels of middle and lower levels of generals below the captain, and more than three levels of generals. Even General Mark died in battle. The situation is not very optimistic. In terms of the strong, we are also at a clear disadvantage. Apart from Apeter and Princess Julie, we have not many strong people who can compete with each other. This may be our real fatal injury."
His eyes gradually became darker as Mohusse's narration. Rand frowned just because he heard it. He could never have imagined that the current situation was already at a certain level. If he continued at this speed, it would probably not take five days. The flag would be changed on the top of the entire new city early tomorrow morning.
However, Lant obviously has no good way to reverse this situation. After all, he is not the kind of peak powerhouse like Ye Piao. Apart from his own wisdom and sorrow, Lant has no extra reliance to reverse the decline in front of him.
Otherwise, he would not have smiled bitterly on his face after hearing the news that Julieya ran to the front line battlefield.
When Lant felt extremely depressed and sour when he let a dignified princess run to the battlefield to kill the enemy, no matter how he thought about it.
"Where are Wuwei and Heyat? How are their injuries? If it really doesn't work, then they can only push them over. However, it's impossible not to do this. We must try our best to get time for recovery for them. Without foreign aid, they will be our hope of winning this war and surviving. It seems that it's my turn to take action. Although it can't change the overall situation, it's still no problem to delay some time. I hope that the third brother has blessed me with the 'Glory of Santa Cruz', which I blessed, can bring us more surprises!"
