What was once a prosperous dwarven empire has now become a pile of ruins buried in the dirt and weeds! The sound of black smoke and iron, hearty laughter, and wanton drinking orders in the past are now completely gone! The power of nature is powerful, and with the demise of the dwarven empire, it seems that the entire basin seems to be full of life, and as far as the eye can see, everywhere is green, and people can't help but feel refreshed and happy in it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Located in the middle of the basin, Fort was the cultural and economic center of the Dwarven Empire. Since the victory of the Dragon War, thousands of dwarven remnants exiled all over the continent of Semyr have begun to slowly gather around the Forge, repair the city, and reclaim the wasteland, almost every dwarf has the same dream, that is, to use their industrious hands to recreate the strength and prosperity of the original Dwarven Empire!

But the good times didn't last long, and it didn't take long for the war between the two realms of life and death to start at the mouth of the God Slaughter Storm, which was very close to the Dwarf Basin! Immediately after, the armies of the Human Tongtian Empire and the Elven Race were stationed in the Crucible Fortress! Hoarding grain and grass, evacuating the people, and making every effort to rebuild the Copper Hammer Pass, so that the Dwarf Kingdom, which had just begun to show some signs of recovery, was once again on the cusp of the war......

With the exception of a few highly skilled dwarven craftsmen, most of the dwarven civilians had to leave their homes again and retreat to the elven cities in the rear to continue their refugee lives, under the escort of the combined forces of humans and elves......

Two days ago, a human army had quickly moved into the Crucible. The original left-behind army of Fort Fort thought that this human army was sent by the front line of Copper Hammer Pass to transfer food, and all the logistics documents of this army were very complete, so the general of the defenders of ForgeFort didn't think much about it, so they opened the gate of Fort and let this human army in!

As soon as this human army entered the city, it immediately turned its face and denied people, and began to slaughter the Crucible Fortress like a bloody city! Although the number of defenders of the Forgeth was quite large, the attack of the other party was too sudden, and they were caught off guard, and the result could only be a hasty response and a thousand miles of collapse!

Fortunately, when the Fort was first built, it was not built according to the specifications of a military fortress, which made the interior of the Fort extend in all directions, and there were eight gates around it for entry and exit! Seeing that his team was not an opponent of the other side, the defending generals immediately made a decision, led the remnants of the troops, and by the way, brought many civilians, and withdrew from the south gate of the Fort together.

However, although the people in the Fort were withdrawn, none of the grain, grass and military supplies could be moved, whether it was the brand-new weapons that had piled up more than a dozen warehouses, or the stacks of grain and grass that were like mountains, they could only be left to the human army that had invaded the Forge!

Those things are all supplies for the allied forces fighting against the zombie legions on the front line! Just falling into the hands of an unknown enemy, such a thing, whoever rests on it will be restless! Therefore, the commander of the defenders who successfully withdrew from the Crucible immediately sent someone to send out a battle report to inform the Copper Hammer Pass of the situation on the Crucible side, and on the other hand, this commander also led his team around the north gate of the Forge, to see if he could find the enemy's flaws, so as to recapture the Fort in one fell swoop!

After listening to the report of the defender commander on the situation of the Crucible, the Dragon Maiden quickly worked out a set of tactics for attacking the north gate, and then dividing the troops to return to the east gate or the west gate to raid!

Speaking of which, everyone should know who led the human team that took away the Crucible, right? That's right, that team was Cao Chuan's cronies! Cao Chuan, who picked up a life under Yang Muyao's sword, wanted to rely on the defense of the Fort to deal with Cao Ke and the Dragon Maiden! In Cao Chuan's opinion, the Fort contained all the logistical support materials of the coalition army, and without these materials, it would not be long before the coalition army would completely lose its combat effectiveness! In other words, as long as he has control over the logistics materials, he Cao Chuan can be regarded as having a real bargaining chip with Cao Ke!

Since Yang Muyao was able to kill himself, it showed that he Cao Chuan's fake surrender, but in fact, his conspiracy to help the Dead Realm Zombie Legion deal with Cao Ke and deal with the coalition forces had been revealed! Without opening another passage into the basin in advance, Cao Chuan's strategy and tactics of seizing the Crucible Fort could be said to be quite wise and successful! If he hesitates a little longer and is found by the Dragon Maiden and the Wurm team first, then Cao Chuan will lose 100% of the possibility of continuing to resist, and can only be obediently tied up by the Dragon Maiden and let Cao Ke dispose of him!

Now, Cao Chuan has ordered his men to close all the gates of the Crucible Fortress, and then gather superior forces to confront the Dragon Maiden's wurm team at the north gate!

The complacent Cao Chuan never thought that just in the first battle between the two sides, the Dragon Girl would give him a good lesson in war tactics!

The Dragon Maiden herself, personally leading the main force of the Yarm clan and the tens of thousands of original Crucible Castle guards, launched a fierce attack on the north gate of the Forge! The masters under Cao Chuan's command were not the opponents of the Yarm at all! Helplessly, Cao Chuan could only shift the focus of the battle to the defense of the city wall, wanting to rely on the solidity of the city wall to resist the dragon girl's advance. As for the dragon girl, she simply came to respond to all changes with the same attitude! No matter how you defend, I will climb the city wall and engage in hand-to-hand combat with you as much as possible! In this way, first, I can effectively find opportunities to see if I can open the gates of the Crucible Fortress, and second, I can effectively kill and injure Cao Chuan's army and increase Cao Chuan's loss in personnel!

Anything else, Cao Chuan can barely deal with it, that is, those small number of wurms have created a very huge threat and trouble for Cao Chuan! The wall of the furnace fort is only about twenty meters, such a height is very tricky for ordinary soldiers, but for the wurms of the wurm team, it is just a matter of a light jump!

Facing the powerful Wulong who rushed to the city wall, Cao Chuan had to stop it with the number of more than a dozen masters, and gradually, as the original Furnace Fortress garrison also began to climb the city wall, the pressure on Cao Chuan's side was instantly overloaded!

In desperation, Cao Chuan could only order the rest of the defenders of the gates to return to the north gate, no matter what, he couldn't let the dragon girl defeat herself so easily!

But Cao Chuan didn't know that what the Dragon Maiden was waiting for was his order! After staying by Cao Ke's side for a long time, the Dragon Maiden unconsciously developed a habit of relying on the smallest losses in exchange for the greatest victory! Although there was a great chance of defeating Cao Chuan and taking the Crucible Castle with a frontal attack, the price to be paid would be too great!

Therefore, before the dragon girl attacked the north gate of the furnace fort, she had secretly sent Meteor Thunder to lead ten dragon warriors to ambush near the east gate of the furnace fort! When Meteorite saw that the soldiers of Cao Chuanjun, who were responsible for the defense of the east gate, began to move quickly in the direction of the north gate, Meteor knew that the dragon girl's strategy had succeeded!

It was very easy to jump over the unguarded east gate, and Meteorite and his ten men walked along the root of the city wall towards the north gate, where the fierce battle was raging! Where would Cao Chuanjun have thought that the enemy's special team had already sneaked into his rear? Still staring at the front of the Wulong team and the original defenders with red eyes! After a while, a piercing sound of "squeak!" sounded, and the thunderstorm had quietly killed all the guards at the north gate and opened the north gate for the dragon girl!

Seeing this, the dragon girl naturally waved the flag and led the army to rush into the castle from the north gate of the furnace fortress! Although Cao Chuan also realized the danger, he even sent his own personal guard to attack the meteorite and the raid team led by the meteorite thunder, but it was too late, and there was no need for the meteorite to do what they did, the dragon girl who was the first to rush into the city gate on horseback on horseback easily cut off nearly half of the enemy's heads with a wave of the artifact Heaven Covering Blade with both hands!

The last struggle was meaningless, and Cao Chuan's heart suddenly rose up with a sense of timidity and ruthlessness at the end of the road! This is a rather complex and opposing state of mind! On the one hand, Cao Chuan was very afraid, afraid that his limit had come, and he would no longer be able to snatch Liu Hongyu back from his younger brother's hands; on the other hand, Cao Chuan also wanted to use all the means he could to create the biggest trouble for the Dragon Girl and Cao Ke! As the saying goes, death has to pull a cushion, Cao Chuan's current ideology is almost like this!

As for escaping, Cao Chuan didn't think much about it, and it can also be said that the option of escaping was simply skipped by Cao Chuan's subconscious! Because this is related to his own face, no matter how much Cao Chuan is afraid of death, he will not let Liu Hongyu look down on him......

"The whole army has entered the street fighting mode! Even if you fight to the death of a single soldier, you will never surrender to the enemy!" Cao Chuan shouted hysterically: "Quickly notify the brothers in the city, let them immediately set fire to all the grain and grass! Fight for a grain of rice and leave not a grain of rice for the enemy!"

After giving these orders, Cao Chuan turned his head and glanced behind him, and found that there were still hundreds of brothers around him, which made Cao Chuan very satisfied, and nodded slightly to these hundreds of subordinates, and then Cao Chuan raised the scimitar in his hand high above his head, and said solemnly: "You immediately follow me to the West Gate, if I remember correctly, there are still more than a hundred giant crossbows piled up to defend the city! I want the enemy to taste the power of the weapons they have made with their own hands!"
