Chapter 620: The Lonely Mountain Dwarf Fights Back
Li Jun relied on his "ingenuity" to disgust the demon army led by Green, but this did not affect the overall situation.
When the Bloody Enemy agreed to Herrera's terms and sent a large army of vampires, the situation suddenly became dire.
Although the Reaper temporarily withdrew from the Demon Alliance, the ground strength of the Demon Alliance was not affected in any way.
With the completion of the formation of the second and third batches of demon legions, coupled with the five thousand iron-armored rhinoceros legions dispatched by the succubus clan, the demon alliance still has an overwhelming advantage in ground strength.
There is a demon army, and the demon alliance does not need the blood god guard of the blood clan, what they need is a sufficient number of vampire legions.
At Herrera's insistence, the Blood Enemy finally sent a million vampire warriors of different ranks to join the battle.
The two generals who commanded this million-strong army were Blood Wuji and Blood Wuji, both of whom were direct descendants of the Blood Enemy.
Originally, the Demon Clan Alliance planned to continue the siege tactics of Cloud City, and wait until they captured the Griffin Territory and the Golden Forest, and then turned around to clean up the Angel Clan in Cloud City.
However, the shameless tactics used by Li Jun and the angelic warriors not only succeeded in disgusting the demon army, but even forced them out of the range of Cloud City, which made the demon clan unacceptable.
As we all know, the main source of food for the angels is those holy light mushrooms on the ground that can grow indefinitely.
Holy Light Mushrooms have the advantages of fast growth, short ripening period, and lack of fear of destruction, as long as they are within the envelope of Cloudsdale, they can grow freely.
Now that the demon legion led by Green has been forced out of the coverage of Cloudsdale, they have lost control of the Holy Light Mushroom, and as a result, their plan to wait for Cloudsdale to run out of food will be completely ruined.
So whether they want to storm Cloudsdale now, they must regain control of the ground beneath Cloudsdale and control all the Holy Light Mushrooms in their own hands.
And to do all this, they must have a flying legion capable of confronting their enemies, or they will continue to be disgusted by the angelic warriors who have become extremely shameless.
As a result, the army of one million vampires sent by the Blood Clan was directly split in two.
Blood Wuji is stationed in the area around Cloudsdale with half a million vampire warriors, who will assist Grimm in retaking the ground part of Cloudsdale and waiting for an opportunity to attack Cloudsdale.
Blood Mowgli leads half a million vampire warriors to the Griffon Territory to assist Daniels in his quest for the entire Griffonland.
In addition to the armies supported by the Blood Clan and the Succubus Clan, the Demon Clan also sent two large armies to support the front line.
A demon legion of half a million supports the Griffon Leader, at Daniels' disposal.
A demon army of 200,000 came to the territory of the Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain, and they firmly surrounded the dwarves' Lonely Mountain Castle and occupied all the nearby transportation arteries.
In fact, according to the original strategic plan of the Demon Clan, they will first capture the Lonely Mountain Castle and conquer the entire Lonely Mountain Dwarves, and then continue to march north.
Because the Dwarven Lonely Mountain is a very important choke point, if it is not completely occupied, the logistics and transportation channels of the demon army will always be threatened by the Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain.
It's a pity that the plan didn't change quickly, and the appearance of the Seraphic Angel and the rise of Ning Yuan left them no longer with time to play the game of tunnel warfare with the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain.
Now the demon clan only hopes that the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain can get acquainted with each other at this time and not come out to do things.
However, the demon clan forgot that in addition to the dwarves who like to black, build, and drink, they also have one of the biggest characteristics, that is, they hold grudges.
Although the dwarves of the lonely mountain have always lived a self-sufficient life, this does not mean that they have a good temper.
For the last active invasion of the demon clan, from the dwarf king Richie to some dolls who just knew how to remember, they all hated the demon clan.
Last time, if Ning Yuan hadn't secretly sent a team of elven rangers to support them, and then took the initiative to attack the territory of the demon clan and lure away the enemies besieging Gushan, I'm afraid that Gushan Castle would be in danger of falling.
Ning Yuan's righteous act made the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain understand what it means to be cold lips and teeth, and what is an ally who can be entrusted with life and death, so when Ning Yuan hoped that they could destroy the enemy's transportation and supply lines, Richie agreed without hesitation.
Although the demon army had blocked the ground and occupied some choke points in advance, they were outsiders after all, and they could not compare to the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain who had been operating here for countless generations.
Ning Yuan guessed correctly, there was not only one secret passage in the Lonely Mountain Castle, but he also guessed wrong, because those secret passages were only temporary emergency exits, and they were not worth mentioning at all, and there was a huge network of underground passages under the Lonely Mountain Castle.
This underground passage network was painstakingly excavated by the dwarves of the lonely mountain for generations, in order to preserve the fire of the dwarves of the lonely mountain through this underground passage network when the enemy invaded on a large scale.
The last demon invasion, although the form was also very severe, was not yet the time of life and death, so Richie did not choose to open the underground passage network.
And this time it was different, although the Demon Alliance did not continue to attack the Lonely Mountain Castle, their ambitions were too great.
Once Ning Yuan is defeated, even if the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain have a huge network of underground passages, it may be difficult for them to have a place on the Lost Continent anymore, and they are now in a relationship with Ning Yuan.
Although Rich and Ning Yuan only had a one-sided relationship, and the conversation was quite unpleasant, compared with the Demon Clan, Ning Yuan, who obviously had no scheming, was more worthy of their trust, so in order to help Ning Yuan fight against the Demon Clan's coalition army, he finally chose to open the underground passage network.
As a heavy stone door was slowly opened, the long-sealed underground passage appeared in front of Richie and the others.
At Richie's signal, several dwarven warriors tied ropes around their waists and entered the underground passage without hesitation.
Every few seconds, they would pull the rope to inform the people guarding the other end of the rope that everything was okay and that they were still alive.
After several dwarven warriors returned safely, Richie immediately ordered the entire Lone Mountain Dwarf Clan to enter a state of first-level combat readiness, and all the dwarves were mobilized, while a large number of dwarven warriors secretly infiltrated various places in the Lonely Mountain territory through underground passages.
As for the series of actions of the dwarves of the lonely mountain, the demon army that stayed on the ground was unaware at this time.
They still naively thought that as long as the lonely mountain was surrounded, even if the dwarves had a few secret passages, they would not be able to make any waves.
As everyone knows, it was their misjudgment that brought disaster to the logistics and transportation team of the Demon Alliance.
The Dwarf King Richie of the Lonely Mountain is also a ruthless character, he knows very well that the daily consumption of logistics by millions of troops is an astronomical amount, and the enemy's convoys must be transported uninterrupted to meet the needs of the front-line army.
Therefore, in order to paralyze the demon coalition army and make them think that the lonely mountain side is very safe, Richie deliberately let go of several enemy convoys.
After transporting them several times in a row without encountering any harassment, the Demon Alliance thought that the Lone Mountain Dwarves must have been completely trapped, so their courage gradually grew.
So in order to allow the follow-up legions to go to the front line of the Griffon Territory as soon as possible, they organized a super-large transport team.
This time, the convoy of grain and grass supplies was simply boundless, and there was no end in sight at all.
Upon learning that the enemy had organized a huge convoy of transports this time, Richie immediately realized that the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the enemy had come.
After deliberately letting go of a third of the convoy, countless loud horns suddenly sounded throughout the entire Lonely Mountain Territory.
After hearing the sound of the horn, the dwarven warriors who were hiding in the secret passages in various places came out of the secret passages one after another.
Hearing the sudden sound of a horn, the demon general in charge of besieging the Lonely Mountain was startled, but before he could react, there was a rumbling sound on the surrounding hillside.
The demon general looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw that on the hillside that was still bare before, some huge stone balls suddenly appeared at some point. At this time, the stone ball was tumbling down the hillside.
Although the stone balls did not cause any casualties to the demon army stationed everywhere, after the smoke and dust, all the demon warriors were a little dumbfounded, because the stone balls blocked some of the main passages.
And the stone ball blocking the road was just the beginning, and the next shouts of dwarven warriors from everywhere really made the demons feel desperate.
They thought that all the dwarves were trapped in the castle of the lonely mountain, so the number of armies placed elsewhere was very limited.
The dwarves were now not targeting them, but convoys of goods and supplies.
Now the convoys are congested everywhere, unable to move forward or backward, and they may be too late to go to the rescue.
However, whether they had time or not, they had to go to the rescue, so under the orders of the demon general, the demon army besieging the lonely mountain immediately rushed everywhere to prepare to put out the fire.
Firefighting was originally just an adjective, but the demon warriors quickly turned it into a noun, because when they arrived, they were faced with a blazing supply cart.
Rich's tactic this time was simple, which was to set fire up all the supply carts that could be set on fire.
So when the dwarven warriors got out of their hideouts, they didn't blindly chase down the fleeing enemies, but played the game of arson.
The territory of the Lonely Mountain is the home of the dwarves, and the unique rock sheep knights of the Lonely Mountain dwarves fight here like a fish in water.
Many dwarven knights chased the enemy on large rock sheep and set fire everywhere with torches.
The Great Rock Sheep ran like the wind, and some of the rugged terrain was no different from the flat ground under their feet, so many demon warriors could only watch the dwarves set fire everywhere and then leave in a very arrogant manner.
Under the ravages of the Rock Sheep Knights, the entire Lonely Mountain region is filled with billowing smoke and demon warriors who are tired of fighting fires.
Since they couldn't catch those lonely mountain dwarves in the three caves of the cunning rabbit at all, the demon generals stationed in the lonely mountain could only helplessly organize people to extinguish the fire everywhere, and at the same time send troops to protect the convoys that had not yet had time to enter the lonely mountain.
While he was secretly rejoicing that nearly a third of the convoy had successfully passed through the Lonely Mountain, the convoy that had been lucky enough to pass was also attacked.
The men and horses attacking the convoy that passed through the Lonely Mountain region safely were not the Lone Mountain Dwarves, but the Silver Pegasus Knights and Griffon Legions from the Griffon Territory.
After Ning Yuan adopted Zhao Chen's suggestion, he immediately sent a flying legion composed of Silver Pegasus Knights and Griffin Beasts to attack the enemy's logistics and transportation supply lines.
In order to cooperate with the actions of the Lone Mountain Dwarves, the flying legion did not act immediately, but secretly flew to a nearby high mountain and hid.
The smoke from the Lone Mountain Dwarves lit the supply cart was the signal they had agreed with each other, and after seeing the smoke billowing from the Lone Mountain area, the flying legion immediately began to move.
Although a demon cavalry came to meet the convoy after passing through the Lonely Mountain area, under the cover of the griffons, the Silver Pegasus Knights managed to ignite a large number of supply carts and then drove away.
By the time another demon cavalry arrived to help, all that was left on the ground were charred corpses and piles of food and grass that had been reduced to ashes.
Soon, the news of the attack on the logistics convoy at the Lonely Mountain reached the ears of the Demon Emperor Herrera.
After hearing the news, Herrera was furious, and he directly ordered the beheading of the demon officer stationed in Lonely Mountain, and then sent Cook, one of the three demons, to Lonely Mountain to have an overview of the overall situation.
For the Lone Mountain Dwarf, Herrera now hated it to the core, so he directly gave Cook a death order, that is, he must kill the Lone Mountain Dwarf King Richie, and he must use Richie's skull to make a wine glass, only in this way can he eliminate the cruelty in his heart.
When Cook arrived in the Lonely Mountain area, he immediately ordered his army to begin a sweep to find the dwarves' secret passages.
Under the digging of the demon army, many secret passages were successfully found by them, but when the demon warriors drilled into the secret passages, they sadly found that the end of the secret passages had been sealed by the dwarves.
The Dwarven King Richie had known that this kind of attack was a one-shot deal, so if he wanted to do it, he would do the biggest.
And after he finished it, he decisively resealed the underground passage network, and then the whole clan retreated to the Lonely Mountain Castle.
At present, this is the only thing that the Lone Mountain Dwarf Clan can do for Ning Yuan, and then they can only rely on Lone Mountain Castle to drag down an army of demons, and then everything depends on Ning Yuan.
After Cook found out that the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain had sealed all the tunnels, he was also helpless.
In order to prevent the dwarves from killing the secret passages again, the only thing he can do now is to ask the demon warriors to seal all the secret passages they have discovered, and then continue to send troops to besiege the Lonely Mountain Castle.
