Chapter 220: Ground Sneak Attack
When the commanders of the elven army were formulating combat strategies, discussing combat details, and arranging combat missions, Da Liang had quietly infiltrated it.
Throughout the forest, under the shade of towering trees, there was a sizable army.
Because the war broke out so suddenly, the elves did not build a camp here. In fact, the elves did not have the habit of building camps in the forest, and tall trees and dense grass were the best defenses for the elves.
The elven soldiers are accustomed to life in the forest, they march faster in the forest than on the flat land, as long as the war requires them to move quickly in the forest at any time, attacking the enemy from any direction, a fixed camp will limit their play and delay their time.
Elven archers were stationed on the branches of Takagi, and the entire forest was under their watch, which made Da Liang more careful in his movements.
He used "stealth" to hide himself, and repeatedly confirmed that his surroundings were safe before using "Nicole's Jump" to move his position.
The whole process of infiltrating does not take a step, because the forest floor is full of dead branches and leaves, and stepping on it is likely to alarm the dwarven soldiers who are hiding somewhere.
In the dark night, Da Liang couldn't count the number of elven troops, but it was definitely much stronger than the army on his mountain, and once the two armies started to fight in close combat, he had no chance to turn the tables at all.
Da Liang slowly sneaked around, carefully avoiding the elven sentinels who came to patrol, and the dead wood warriors who resembled dead trees.
Then record every discovery you find, so that you can inflict more damage on the elven army during the night attack.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and Da Liang was getting deeper and deeper into the depths of the elven army station.
The number of high-level elf soldiers began to increase, and the unicorns rested together in groups, and with a loud snoring, Da Liang also saw that the golden dragon and the green dragon had encountered during the day, and they were sleeping soundly near a tent, and the tent was ......
This is the only camp tent that Da Liang saw in the elven army, and all the guards near the camp are advanced troops of the elf clan, which are heavily guarded, and there are heralds coming in and out from time to time.
This is definitely the command center of the elven army.
Soon, Da Liang's guess was confirmed, and a group of elves who were obviously high-level heroes walked out.
The elven heroes quickly dispersed, and then the entire elven army moved, slowly gathering and moving in the direction of the hill.
All the soldiers were very careful, and the elves blew a special whistle to calm the birds in the treetops and the beasts on the ground. Even the awakened dragon tried his best to lower his body, moving slowly for fear of crashing into the tree and causing too much movement.
The elven army was about to attack, and their actions in the forest did not attract any attention from the Black Fire Leader, and when Da Liang left, he carefully explained to Julian and asked them to pay close attention to the movements of the forest below the mountain, but they found nothing now.
The elves are the soldiers who completed the pre-battle deployment in silence, Da Liang looked at the teams of soldiers passing by, and couldn't help but feel that the elf army in the forest was really terrifying.
At the same time, Da Liang was also glad that he was able to infiltrate and answered Julian's communication: "The elven army is ready to attack, inform our soldiers to prepare for battle." ”
The elves are attacking?
Julian looked down the hill, and it was pitch black that he couldn't see anything, and no sound came. The night was already quiet, and there was no sound in the large-scale movement of the elven army.
But Julian would not doubt Da Liang's words, and she immediately stopped the skeleton soldiers who were building fortifications on a large scale, and the soldiers of the entire undead army quickly rushed to their respective positions.
Artillery loading, ballistas winding, stone balls and powder kegs were placed at the forefront of the position, these two things played a big role in the daytime battle, and the night battle defense was sure to give the elven army a head-on blow.
Astro and the Frost Dragon came to a stop on top of the mountain, dealing with the elven air forces that could rush out at any moment in the night. At the same time, Astro let the yin spirit he summoned fly slowly down the hill along the front of the position.
Under the cover of darkness, the vanguard of the two armies slowly approached.
Then, when the Yin Spirits and the Elven Mages met together, the battle broke out in an instant.
The attack was discovered, and the elven mages quickly killed the ghosts in front of them, and then the earth mages held up the force field shield, and the other mages gathered behind the force field shield and marched towards the mountain together.
The elven archer followed the magician, and the centaurs rushed upwards from both sides, and the sound of galloping immediately drew the fire of crossbow arrows from the mountains.
The mage kept quiet, there were no ghosts in front of them, as long as they didn't make a sound, the defenders above were just blindly firing ballistas, this level of attack could not break through their force field shields, and their task was to use magic to build an earthen wall in front of the enemy's position that could provide concealment for friendly troops.
As long as your elven archers can suppress the opponent's light ballistas, they can cover the ground troops rushing forward.
The centaurs continued to charge from both flanks without fear of death, and more and more ballistas were drawn to it.
Neither side lit the torches, and Da Liang, who was in the forest below the mountain, could not see the battle taking place on the mountain, and could only roughly understand the strength and direction of the elven attack through the voice and Julian's report.
The elves did not attack from the air, but attacked from the flanks of the hillside with ground troops, all of whom listened to the sound of centaurs.
Da Liang could guess that the two wings were just feints, and they were definitely not the direction of the main attack of the elven troops. There was no movement in the sky, and the focus of the elven attack was definitely in the middle lane.
It's just that the middle lane is also nearly 200 meters wide, and a blind attack without seeing it has little effect.
At this time, the elven attack force in the middle must be lit up, otherwise once they get too close, the army on the mountain will be in danger.
Da Liang told Julian his guess, and Julian looked at the dark hillside in front of him and said, "I went to make a surprise attack and shine them out with holy light." ”
Da Liang stopped: "No, there must be a large number of heroes in the middle of the elves, and it is very dangerous for you to break away from the protection of the position and rush over." Leave it to me, you have the rolling stones and powder kegs ready, and we will cooperate to catch them off guard. ”
After that, Ryo uses "Nicole's Jump" to appear on the treetops of a large tree, and the "Meteor Shower" scroll points to the sky in the direction of the hill.
The high-level earth-based magic skill makes the fire cloud summoned by Da Liang reach a range of 300 meters in diameter, and it is also brighter. The fire clouds at a height of 300 meters illuminate the surrounding space.
The elven army that was climbing up the hillside was all illuminated.
