Chapter 628, Come to Cloud City
When the huge stone ball tumbles down the Dragon Ladder to the ground, Green's plan to take Cloudsdale fails.
Although he had been prepared in his heart, Green still felt very sorry for such an ending.
If there was no chance at all, Green wouldn't have much regret.
But the vampire army and the demon army are just a little bit short of being able to capture the entire Cloudsdale City, but unfortunately they are always a little bit behind.
If it was a little later in the day, if the vampire army would not retreat, if there was no damn realm of holy light,......, unfortunately there would be no if.
In fact, Green didn't care so much about failing to capture Cloud City, after all, Cloud City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is very normal that he can't attack it once or twice.
But what Green couldn't accept the most was the perverted Holy Light Realm in Cloudsdale.
In order to limit the resurrection talents of the Angelic Warriors, whether it is the Vampire Legion or the Demon Legion, they will try to destroy the corpses of the enemies as much as possible after killing them.
It is common knowledge in the Lost Continent that the corpses of the angel clan cannot be resurrected after they are destroyed, and all races deal with angel warriors with two lives in this way.
But in Cloudsdale, this iron law has been ruthlessly broken.
As long as the corpses of the angels are still there, no matter what they are destroyed, under the illumination of the Holy Light, they can all be resurrected directly in the Temple of Light, plus that extremely shameless set of Holy Light Armor, what other legion can defeat them on Cloudsdale?
Green thought that even if he failed to attack once, he could at least inflict a heavy blow on the Angel Clan, and then he only needed to come a few more times before Cloud City could be completely taken by them.
As a result, they never expected that it was themselves who were really hit hard.
In just one night, the 500,000 vampire warriors finally withdrew only about 200,000, and the 70,000 elite demon warriors were only a few thousand left.
On the other hand, the angel clan, except for those unlucky ones who only have one life left, everyone else is intact, although most of them only have one life left, but at least their strength is still there.
And the most unacceptable thing for Green is the bloody death in battle.
Blood Wuji is a direct descendant of the old goblin who is more valued by the Blood Enemy, and he is a rare legion-type talent of the Blood Clan.
Although the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and the blood Wuji was killed by the enemy because of his poor strength, but the blood clan has paid so much, in order to appease the old goblin, His Majesty the Demon Emperor is afraid that he will have to have more blood.
Hey, it's really a recipe for stealing chickens.
Blood Wuji died in battle, the remaining vampire army was leaderless, and the strength of the angel clan still existed, so that Green finally had to choose to temporarily rest his troops, and even the logistics and transportation at night were forced to be interrupted.
Fortunately, a lot of logistical supplies have been sent to the front line these days, and the temporary interruption is not a big problem.
In this night attack, the loss of the Blood Clan was a bit large, so until the old goblin of the Blood Enemy sent a new commander, Green didn't dare to command the remaining vampire army anymore.
......
Although the angels succeeded in crushing the enemy's conspiracy, they also paid a heavy price for it.
Except for the children who were hidden, fifty percent of the Angel Clan had all died in one battle, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to the Angel Clan who could only defend Cloudsdale.
If the enemy launches another attack like last night, I am afraid that they will face the danger of mass death, and it is unknown whether they will be able to hold Cloudsdale by then.
Cliff was completely killed, two Seraphs were killed once, and half of the Angel warriors of the Angel Clan's most elite Legion of Light Angels had only one life left, and they could no longer withstand such a big battle.
Now that Cliff is gone, and the Li army sent by Ning Yuan has also been killed, the burden of the entire Cloud City has fallen on House alone, which suddenly overwhelms him.
Facing Cloud City, which had just experienced the war, House could only organize his clan to carry out the aftermath work, while pinning his hopes on Ning Yuan, who was far away in the Holy Eagle City.
......
By the time the messenger sent by Cloudsdale broke through the blockade of the Demon Alliance and arrived at Eagle City, the sky was already getting dark.
After listening to the messenger's detailed account of last night's fierce battle, Ning Yuan and the rest of the players all fell into deep thought.
The cause of this great war is Cloudsdale, and although the scale of the war has expanded several times, the key point that determines the outcome of this war is still in Cloudsdale.
Cloudsdale and the Dwarven Mountains form a natural barrier that isolates the Demon Race to the south of the Lost Continent.
Although the demon alliance has now reached the griffin territory, they have also paid a huge price for it.
Not to mention anything else, just the grain and grass materials, they will consume a lot more, and this does not include those that were burned by Ning Yuan's side.
Although Ning Yuan didn't know how thick the Demon Clan's family background was, he knew very well that it would be difficult for the enemy's continuous consumption to last long, because his Condor Empire had also experienced this kind of war.
Don't look at Ning Yuan's power on the Lost Continent is not as good as the Demon Clan, but the national strength of the Condor Empire is much stronger than the Demon Clan.
Comparing hearts to hearts, in such a large-scale war, even the Condor Empire, which has accumulated for so many years, feels powerless, not to mention the demon clan whose national strength is far inferior to that of the Condor Empire.
It was with this in mind that Ning Yuan would formulate a strategic policy of focusing on defense, relying on the advantage of fighting at home, and slowly consuming the enemy's national strength until it was completely dragged down.
And a major prerequisite for the success of this defensive strategy is that Lonely Mountain Castle and Cloudsdale cannot be lost.
Because once these two places are lost, the Griffon Territory and the Golden Forest will not only lose a natural barrier, but will also directly border the Demon Territory.
At that time, the demon alliance will be able to attack unscrupulously, and they will invade whenever they want.
On the other hand, Ning Yuan's side will be on guard all day long, always ready to meet the enemy's invasion.
At that time, the production in the territory will be seriously affected, and in the long run, they will fall into a complete passivity, so neither Cloud City nor Lonely Mountain Castle can afford to lose.
Because of Ning Yuan's help, the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain had already survived the most dangerous period.
The dwarves hid in the mountains, which contained enough food for their entire clan to eat for several years, and until the grass was exhausted, they could be said to be as stable as Mount Tai.
The most dangerous thing now is Cloud City, which has always been favored by Ning Yuan before.
Ning Yuan originally thought that with the Panlong Heavenly Ladder, the defense of Cloud City would be invulnerable, but he never expected that the enemy would almost defeat Cloud City just by sending a vampire army.
Although the enemy used the strategy of diverting the tiger from the mountain and successfully deceived the Bright Angel Legion, there are still millions of battle angels on Cloud City, are they all eating dry food?
Even if the vampire side has a vampire aura, can't a few million battle angels defeat half a million vampires?
Although Ning Yuan also knew that there were not many elite troops, sometimes hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers could easily defeat millions of enemies, but the angel clan was also a powerful race no matter how it was said, and Cloud Medium was still their home field, which was really a bit too undeserved.
In the final analysis, in addition to the fact that the angels lost the bonus of the Holy Light Realm because it was night, the main reason was that they had been imprisoned in the invisible cage of Cloud City for too long, and the entire race had lost their enterprising spirit.
Although last night's fierce battle had successfully awakened the fighting factor in their blood, Cliff's unexpected death had left them leaderless.
The strength of an army's combat effectiveness is not only related to the individual quality of the soldiers, but also to the strength of the commander-in-chief.
As the saying goes, if a soldier bears, there will be a nest of bears.
A weak sheep leading a pack of lions may not be able to defeat even a pack of wolves, but a flock led by a male lion has a good chance of defeating a fierce pack.
Now that the Angel Clan's bloodiness has been successfully awakened, what they really lack is actually a qualified leader.
With a qualified commander to unite them, they can defend Cloudsdale to the point where they don't need reinforcements at all.
In the current situation, Ning Yuan couldn't send any reinforcements to support them, so Ning Yuan finally decided to go to Cloud City to take charge himself.
Although the Holy Vulture City is very important, but the Cloud City is even more important, if the Cloud City is lost, the Holy Eagle City will definitely not be spared, choose one of the two, Ning Yuan can only choose Cloud City.
"Lao Zhao, we can't send any reinforcements to support Cloud City, so I have to go there in person, and after I leave, the Holy Eagle City will be handed over to you.
After I pass, I will try to destroy the enemy's food routes and relieve your pressure.
I have only one request for you, and that is to defend the city of the Vulture, and as long as there is one gasping person in the city, you must continue to fight. ”
After making a decision, Ning Yuan immediately explained to Zhao Chen and the others.
"Boss, don't worry, if the enemy wants to break through the Holy Vulture City, he must first step on our corpses, unless the Holy Eagle City becomes a dead city, we must hold it to the end." Zhao Chen patted his chest and assured Ning Yuan.
"Everyone will work hard during this time, and when the Lost Continent is connected with the big earth, I will give everyone a big vacation."
Ning Yuan hugged the players in the hall in turn, and then led a team of Silver Pegasus Knights to quietly leave the Holy Eagle City.
......
After successfully avoiding the enemy's patrol and arriving at Cloud City without danger along the way, Ning Yuan didn't care about resting, and directly summoned the surviving generals of the Angel Clan.
After learning about the situation in Cloud City in detail, Ning Yuan quickly made a decision in his heart.
Although the demon army is now silent, they have not withdrawn from the territory of Cloudsdale, they rely on the vampire army to be on the periphery, and they have taken over all the holy light mushrooms on the ground.
And after Li Jun was killed, the angels seemed to have forgotten all those shameless tactics and did not harass the demon army below in any way.
They were now frightened by the enemy, for fear that the enemy would launch a surprise attack on Cloudsdale again, so they didn't dare to leave Cloudsdale for half a step.
Faced with the angels' cautious psychology, Ning Yuan was very speechless, but he couldn't say anything yet, because the angel clan's state was obviously that he had been bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope.
If you want to help them break this fear, you can't just talk about it, you have to take concrete actions to help them rebuild their confidence.
In order to help the Angel Clan regain their strong self-confidence, Ning Yuan decided to take the initiative to launch a big battle during the day, targeting the demon camp below Cloud City.
During the day, the Vampire Legion cannot participate in the battle, and the Angel Legion is invincible without the influence of the Forbidden Sky Realm.
Coupled with the assistance of the Holy Light Realm, they were actually the dominant side, so Ning Yuan really couldn't figure out why they didn't know how to take advantage of this advantage?
But now it's finally possible, because he's coming, and all the angelic warriors must obey his orders.
"House, you led 100,000 lure enemy legions with two lives to raid the enemy's North Battalion, your task is to fight to the death until all the members are killed, do you understand?"
After holding all the power in his hands, Ning Yuan immediately began to dispatch troops.
"Your Majesty..."
House didn't expect Ning Yuan to give such an order, and was suddenly taken aback.
"Shut up for me, do you understand obeying orders? Tell me loudly if I can do it, and if I can't, I'll change people immediately. ”
Seeing that House wanted to question his order, Ning Yuan immediately interrupted it rudely, and then scolded loudly.
"House can do it, and guarantee that 100,000 people will all appear in the Temple of Light." Feeling the contempt in Ning Yuan's eyes, House's bloodiness was suddenly stimulated.
"Okay, you go and gather the army now, and then do what you are told."
"Yes."
"Rose, Bart, Harris, each of the three of you will lead 200,000 battle angels, and follow me from the south side in a moment.
I don't care how many lives you have now, but you have to treat me as if you have two more lives.
When the fight breaks out, no one can leave the battle without my order, and I will kill those who violate the order.
Got it? ”
After House left, Ning Yuan immediately explained the mission to the three Seraphs.
"My subordinates understand."
"Hart listens." After the three of them left, Ning Yuan turned his gaze to Hart again.
"The subordinates are here."
"In a moment, you lead 10,000 angelic warriors to form a warlord, and when the battle begins, you are responsible for patrolling the air.
If a deserter is discovered, he will be arrested and put in prison to be dealt with after the war.
No one in the Overseer team is allowed to bend the law for personal gain, and if someone deliberately releases water, I will destroy it, understand? ”
Ning Yuan stared at Hart and explained with a serious expression.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, your subordinates will complete the task." Hartlang assured Ning Yuan.
"Okay, let's all go down and prepare, and in three hours, we will leave on time."
