Chapter 97: The Battle of the Stone Cave Mouth is over
Baron Parvari and his generals LinkedIn walked down the city wall together under the protection of heavy troops.
"It's not safe outside the city now, and Marquis Stanley's army will arrive at any moment. We need to leave on the ships of the Baoshan fleet, and the Baoshan fleet cannot remove all our soldiers. Let our mages go first, the rest of the army will continue to drag out the enemy here, the gargoyle will continue to put pressure on the East Battery to cover us, and we will not let them aim their guns at the river, and the rest of the soldiers will hold on to the Middle Battery, and we must not lose the Middle Battery until we all withdraw. ”
The defenders of the stone cave began to shrink their defense line due to the collective evacuation of the heroes, and the soldiers on their walls no longer fought with the corpses, but retreated to the central fort, taking advantage of the height difference to strictly defend the fort. Instead of trying to get out of the city, the stone people in the city began to block the entry of the walking corpses.
Da Liang rode a silver pegasus and wandered on the edge of the battlefield, and now he did not have enough troops around him to protect him, so he could only keep moving at high speed to avoid the magic that might be shot.
He discovered the movement of the defenders, and the red-robed mages began to retreat from the battlefield and assemble towards the docks, while a group of heroic units withdrew from the battle.
Shu Xiao, who also saw this, said to Da Liang: "The heroes and mages of the defenders are preparing to retreat, what should we do?" Whether it's to strengthen the offense and stop them, those are all experience. ”
Da Liang's heart was also hesitating.
The defenders' generals retreated apparently because they had no hope of victory under their own onslaught, and saved important units by losing their cars to protect their commanders. If you had ordered the walking corpses on the walls to enter the city through the steps on the inner side of the walls, and attack the docks regardless of the losses, you might have been able to kill all of these heroes.
There are always a lot of good things on heroes, and looking at the current equipment market, these heroes are simply walking treasure chests. Especially the hero who can cast high-level water magic, his magic power must have run out, and if he is lucky enough to kill him, he will definitely be able to burst into the best equipment.
But in this way, the army of the walking corpses will basically die, after all, there are about 1,500 stone men in the city, and there are also two brigades of spirits, plus a small number of gargoyles, it is not easy for Daliang's army to deal with them.
Whether to save the walking corpse as much as possible, or to risk fighting the boss to explode the equipment, Da Liang weighed the pros and cons and said: "Let's fight steadily, although the other party shows the intention of retreating, but if we easily take the risk and disrupt the rhythm of the entire war, the other party may not turn back to attack, in case we are defeated, we will lose too unjustly." ”
"All right, Master." Shu Xiao concentrated on dealing with the gargoyles flying above, at this time there were eleven griffons left by her side, but fortunately, the turret was already full of walking corpses, and the gargoyles did not dare to rush down except for interfering with and affecting the gunner's vision.
In fact, just as Da Liang analyzed, Baron Parvari did not rush to board the battleship that came to meet him after arriving at the dock, he asked the withdrawn mages to set up a long-range attack line on the dock, and some of the stone men retreated to the front of the mages to be responsible for defense, if the walking corpses came down from the city wall to follow the attack, they would definitely suffer heavy losses here. If he could inflict a heavy blow on the army of the walking dead near the docks, Baron Parvari wouldn't mind a full-scale counterattack against the enemy.
It's just that the walking corpses continue to attack the middle battery, so that Baron Parvari does not dare to stay here, and the docks are all within the range of the battery.
Seeing the enemy hero units begin to enter the battleships parked on the dock, Da Liang knew that the war had finally been won. It's just that the remnants of the defenders in the city are still struggling to resist every step of the marching corpse army, and the soldiers on both sides are fighting for their lives in this hand-to-hand combat.
The walking corpse advances step by step with the advantage of numbers.
"Boom !!"
With an earth-shattering explosion, the defenders, unable to stop the walking corpses, detonated the gunpowder stored in the central battery. The entire middle gate collapsed in a cloud of smoke and firelight, and various limbs and unknown objects burst out in the explosion, and one of the barrels of the cannon flipped in the air and fell to the ground across a distance of tens of meters, half of the cannon body plunged into the earth.
The central fort was destroyed, and the battle began to spread into the city, and as the last battleship of the Baoshan fleet sailed away from the docks with the red-robed mages on board, the walking corpses that rushed into the city completed the siege of the defenders.
"Oops, I'm dead."
Shu Xiao took off the portable game terminal, kept rubbing his temples, and the high-intensity combat also had to take into account the communication with Da Liang, which was really draining. After her head became a little clearer, she said to Da Liang, "I was killed by a gargoyle, and the griffons are all dead. This battle is really cool, Master, you can definitely call me when you encounter this kind of large-scale war plot in the future. ”
Da Liang commanded the army of walking corpses to make a final siege of the defenders, and at this time the defenders were left with only stone people and spirits, who protected the spirits heavily on a slope, and the stone men were responsible for resisting the attacks of the walking corpses, and the spirits were responsible for shooting outwards with their gunpowder launchers.
The artillery on the east battery was aimed at the spirits on the slope, and the distance made the grapeshot lose its power, and the walking corpse gunners who were already slightly proficient in using artillery used solid bullets to blast at the spirits, and the gargoyle's retreat made Da Liang feel relieved to release the magic mages, and these powerful ranged units also joined the queue to make the final siege of the defenders.
Da Liang in the game said to Shu Xiao while dispatching troops: "This battle is good, I found that you have a great talent for commanding air units, with 200 griffins can not only successfully protect me, but also fight out seven squadrons of gargoyles, if there are any large-scale war missions in the future, I will definitely call you." ”
Shu Xiao smiled happily: "Master, what about my Royal Griffin Mount?" It died for you. ”
"Compensate, all your losses, Master, I will compensate in full."
The battle at Shidongkou had entered its final stage, the Baoshan fleet on the river began to retreat under the threat of the battery, and the Pudong fleet also reported to the Admiral's Palace.
The victory in the Battle of Shidongkou was definitely a great change to the situation in the Shangjiang area, which showed that the Marquis of Stanley of Jiading City had completely sided with Shangjiang City. Although Shangjiang City does not know what the poor Jiading City can do in the future war, at least the forces used by Shangjiang City to defend Jiading City can be liberated, and at the same time, because of the bad relations between Jiading City and Baoshan City, Shangjiang City can also draw some soldiers from the border of Baoshan City. The difficulty of the shortage of troops in Shangjiang City will be greatly alleviated.
Therefore, when Joyce learned of the victory in the Battle of the Stone Cave Entrance, she immediately flew to the Stone Cave in a royal griffin, where she was to welcome the arrival of the Marquis of Stanley, after all, the "main general" who commanded the Battle of the Stone Cave Entrance was her man.
