Chapter 192: Battle of Hwaseong
The Iron Blood Overlord and his party withdrew to Hwaseong, and only a few thousand of the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses remained.
After three days of sleepless retreat, most of the soldiers were exhausted. And less than 10,000 people died on the battlefield. Never know that tired magic-summon skeletons haunt tens of thousands of armies like nightmares. In the end, only these few soldiers and horses fled back to Hwaseong.
"You guys came back just in time, go to the Lord's Mansion to upgrade Hwaseong. A territory the size of a small city can't stop the skeletons. "When the hermit saw the Iron Blood Overlord and the others fleeing back to Huacheng, he urged him urgently.
When the Iron Blood Overlord and the others heard this, they quit.
The merits of the million-strong army in exchange for upgrading Hwaseong are not cost-effective, and it may not be able to hold Hwaseong. All previous gains will be wiped out. When they thought of the boundless, seemingly never-ending sea of skeletons, everyone hated it.
"I have to go back and replenish the troops, and take my leave." Lu Yao's face turned pale, and he weakly arched his hand to the hermit. In the past three days of retreat, if he and Cai Yan had not used their combined skills to act resolutely, I am afraid that even these thousands of soldiers and horses would have to stay in the Valley of the Dead.
"You can go, Zhao Yun and they have to stay." The Iron Overlord blurted out on the spot.
Without Lu Yao, it doesn't matter. But there must be no famous generals like Zhao Yun. Without these famous generals, Hwaseong is even more difficult to defend. An endless sea of skeletons can be piled up to level Huacheng.
"Leave Nima behind." The thief who rushed to hear the news ran quickly and heard that the Iron Blood Overlord was calculating the boss's famous generals again, and immediately couldn't help it.
"I don't need to say more about the significance of Hwaseong to Huaxia District. If you can't hold Hwaseong, it means failure. Who bears this responsibility? You? Or are you guys? The iron-blooded overlord didn't smile, and his eyes swept over the thieves one by one.
"Are you really stupid or are you in arrears?" I ate sweet potatoes and asked with a smile: "The territory of a small city is just a small city and they are clinging to it, and they are simply put in a small cage." How much of a role can they play? ”
"Maybe someone just wants to take the opportunity to kill the boss's famous general, and his heart is punishable." Shenxiao Sword looked at the iron-blooded overlord, yin and yang were weird, and he almost named him on the spot.
"I said hermit, it's time for the Huaxia Alliance to take care of it. Let the layman lead the insider, and the soldier is taboo. "Loyal and righteous Wushuang reminded the hermit earnestly, as if I was sincerely thinking about the Huaxia Alliance.
"Zhao Yun, they are the last trump card. The best thing for them is to lead the army to cruise around the perimeter and find those necromancers on the opposite side to kill. In this way, the Hwaseong crisis can be resolved. The righteous iron blood did not mock, and calmly made an analysis.
Yuebai Xing glanced at the Iron Blood Overlord, the corners of his mouth curled, and he shook his head. His action immediately deeply stimulated the Iron Blood Overlord.
"Why are we going to fight those skeletons?" The Iron Blood Overlord blurted out impulsively, and as soon as he spoke, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.
"This is Hwaseong." The hermit took over coldly.
The Predator and the others fell silent.
Yes, this is their Huacheng, not Lu Yao's first city in China. If you can't keep Hwaseong, it means that all the previous investments have been wasted. can stick to Hwaseong, facing the endless sea of skeletons, and get no profit at all.
If you don't keep your own territory, you demand ...... from others No one is a fool.
"Farewell." Lu Yao said goodbye to the hermit, and left Hwaseong with the thief and the others.
"Hurry up and upgrade Hwaseong, they'll be there soon." The hermit's gaze swept over the iron-blooded overlord and his party, and he turned around and hurried to the city gate to hurry up and set up defenses.
The iron-blooded overlord and the others glanced at each other with a helpless expression. They vaguely felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't say anything wrong, so they had to rush to the Lord's Mansion sullenly, and donated the merits that had just arrived and had not yet covered the heat, and upgraded Hwaseong to the scale of Midtown.
At this time, Hwaseong became a pot of porridge. Most of the idle players retreated to the First City of China with their respective troops. Where are the members of the Huaxia Alliance willing to work? If it is profitable, it will follow with a dead face, and if it is unprofitable, he will pat his ass and leave, and throw the pot to the Huaxia Alliance. How can there be such a cheap good thing.
"The great god said that the only way to resolve the crisis in Hwaseong was to find those necromancers. Defend Hwaseong. We're going to help you kill those necromancers. ”
The players who were stopped moved out of this reason, which immediately left the members of the Huaxia Alliance speechless. Kill your sister...... I can't say that.
When the black-pressed Sea of Skulls appeared on the distant horizon of Hwaseong, there were only a few players left in Hwaseong who were willing to help defend the city, as well as hundreds of thousands of Huaxia Alliance members. The army of hundreds of millions was now about 20 million troops.
The hermit sat in the lord's mansion, received the information that the skeleton army was about to enter the city, and turned his eyes to the iron-blooded overlord and his party: "Everyone, it is a matter of the survival of Huacheng, let's go and replenish the troops." ”
When the Iron Blood Overlord and the others heard this, they immediately blew up.
It's easy to say, but the cost of replenishing troops is not small. Everyone just lost a million troops, and then let everyone come up with money to replenish the army, it is not cost-effective. If there is no benefit, even if it is not profitable, why do you have to post it upside down?
The hermit didn't refute, he took a deep look at the Iron Blood Overlord and the others, retracted his gaze and continued to deal with official business.
The sea of black-pressed skeletons is coming, and it's menacing. In just a few minutes, the four city gates in the south, east, west, and northwest were all gray-white skeletons as far as the eye could see, and there was no gap in sight.
A rain of arrows rained down from the city, clearing a void that was filled in by the skeletons that followed it almost in the blink of an eye. They have no sentient beings, only a single mission.
Flatten the head of the city.
As the players' various generals' nirvana moves were released, the skeletons under the city became thicker and thicker. The five-zhang high city wall was about to be leveled in just over an hour. The players in the city felt numb at the sight of the scalp and realized that the most dangerous moment was coming.
One hour, twenty minutes, and thirty-six seconds.
An endless sea of bones piles up a slope at each of the gates. Skeletons from behind struck the city along the slope. The two sides went head-to-head for the first time.
The skeletons are weak and vulnerable, but they can't stand up to their large numbers. At first, the defenders of the city were able to maneuver with ease, cutting and killing skeletons like wheat. But after a long time, the flesh and blood soldiers gradually couldn't hold on.
Casualties gradually appeared, and the defenders of the city relied on continuous defense to barely ensure that the city head was not lost. As night falls, the never-tireless skeletons cause great trouble for the defenders.
One day, two days, three days...... More than half of the 20 million troops in Hwaseong were killed and wounded, and their morale was low, but the vast sea of skeletons still had no edge in sight.
"What are they eating, they haven't found those necromancers for three days." The Iron Overlord thundered: "They didn't have a good heart. Just want to take advantage of the opportunity to reduce our strength. ”
"Do you think the gods and demons are so stupid to openly send those necromancers to you?" Someone despises it.
The iron-blooded overlord was extremely angry, but he was powerless to refute.
This is clearly the plan of the gods and demons players. Use the Sea of Skulls to deplete Hwaseong's potential, then bulldoze it. This is Chi Guoguo's yang conspiracy. Either give up Hwaseong or consume. Whichever side can't hold out first loses the war. As the key to the plan, those necromancers will never be so easy to find.
At this time, the hermit raised his head and calmly ordered, "Let's all go and replenish the troops." The morale of the remaining troops in the city was too low. Letting them continue on top will only increase the casualty rate. ”
