Soon it was dawn.

The light of dawn fell on Allen's face, and he opened his eyes. After sleeping for an hour, the spirit is restored. He stood up and stretched. Looking to the side, Lucy was curled up in a ball, leaning against the stone with her back to the wind. Alan pulled the warm marching blanket for her, and she woke up.

Those who can buy time to rest on the battlefield are qualified fighters. Lucy undoubtedly did this, and when she woke up, her blue pupils were full of energy.

"They didn't attack?" Lucy asked.

Alan nodded heavily.

This was by no means a good thing, the enemy clearly had an advantage in forces, but did not rush to attack. Obviously, you have to be prepared to take them down in one fell swoop, and the sword demon has no intention of letting them live, even if there are only one or two people.

Willik and Bloy returned, handed them dry food and clean water, and then sat down to rest in the hope of regaining their energy.

Alan ate something and found Kirges. The major seemed to sleep at the end of the night, but there was not the slightest tiredness in his eyes. He was putting down his tactical binoculars, his face clouded. Seeing Alan coming, he sighed lightly: "It seems that we have a hard fight. ”

Hand the telescope to Alan.

Alan looked down the hill and gasped. After a night's work, the sword demon set up a checkpoint on the key points of the mountain road. Locally sourced, obstructions made of ironwood, wood, and rubble will prevent the Federals from effectively onslaught, and can be used as cover to evade Federated fire. Fortunately, the mountain road was rugged, and the sword demons could not drive their chariot up the mountain, otherwise this battle would not have been fought.

As for the opponent's wolf riders, they are unimpeded, but they are only mountain trails, which cannot be attacked in clusters like on flat ground, which greatly weakens the mobility and power of the wolf riders.

But the federal side is still disadvantaged and difficult to change.

"Oh my God, what's that?" A non-commissioned officer exclaimed.

Alan and Kirgeth looked back.

On the other side of the wind-eroded wasteland, black clouds tumbled on the horizon, raising sand and dust into the air. Allen returned the telescope to Cogess, and the major looked at it and exclaimed, "It's not good, it's an ant colony!" ”

That's right, that's an ant colony, and there are quite a few of them. Alan looked at it just now, and he knew that there were at least five or six hundred knife ants that would raise dust and smoke of this scale. The Blade Ant has always been a commonly used servant beast and cannon fodder for the Blade Demons, and in many previous battles, it was usually the Blade Ant that played the role of attracting firepower and consuming Federation ammunition. Sadly, knowing this, the Federation is unable to change the situation.

If a large number of sword ants are allowed to flood into the position, their losses will be far greater than the ammunition consumed. In the face of this characteristic style of play of the sword demon, the federal side is looking for a way to crack it. It has been proposed that the knife ants can be used to develop special pheromones that are lethal or disgusting, in order to massively kill the knife ants or force them to leave the battlefield, so as to solve the ant sea tactic of the knife demon.

It's just that such pheromones are still being developed, and Allen's army is not so configured.

A large number of sword ants approached like a reddish-brown lead cloud, so it seems that a medium-sized tribe must have migrated here. The wolf rider who left last night was obviously an ant colony brought back to the tribe in captivity. If the sword ants take the lead, it will be very disadvantageous for Allen's side, and their already limited ammunition will be consumed at an accelerated rate because of these servant beasts.

"So far, we can only use echelon combat methods, and take advantage of the limited space on the mountain road to delay time as much as possible." Kirgeth snorted.

Calling all the non-commissioned officers, Corgeth began to arrange the positions and tasks of each team. They will give up space in the middle of the mountain road, tighten the defensive line on the top of the mountain road, and take advantage of the condescending superiority. Attack in echelons in turns, blocking and intercepting enemy forces in order to delay time. As for whether it can be dragged until reinforcements come to the rescue, no one wants to think about it.

By the time Cogs was laying out his tactics, the swarm had already reached the foot of the mountain. At this moment, there was a surge in the sword demon, and a tall demon strode out. He is not like other sword demons who have a rickety body, obviously like other lifeforms, when the source power develops to a certain extent, the alien person like the sword demon will also evolve. The sword demon in front of him has evolved once, his body is straight, and the structure of his original spine has changed, allowing him to stand straight like a human, which allows the sword demon to make more movements.

He was clad in bizarre armor that was also made of bone and metal, covering a much larger area than a normal wolf knight. There are three flags behind him, and the strong wind blows, making the blood-brown flags flutter fiercely, looking at the flames from afar.

This is a sword demon general, and the position of general can only appear in medium-sized tribes. And in the ten strong and domineering departments, there are even higher-level generals. An ordinary general also has a level 20 strength, which is equivalent to a major in the federal army. The Sword Demon General dragged a broadsword in his hand, and the broadsword was full of primitive style. Its grip, gauntlet, and spine are made of the bones of Moriran. As for the blades on both sides, they are made of rough metal.

The general raised his broadsword and pointed at the federal army above, and immediately ten wolf riders took out the bones of the beast and blew out a sharp horn.

This is the signal to attack!

There was no suspense, and it was a large number of knife ants that attacked first. Ignoring the rugged mountain paths and steep cliffs, the beasts climbed up the mountains as if a dark red mist rose from the foot of the mountain to the summit. Cogis gestured, and the Federation army tightened up the steep peak, avoiding a siege by the sword ants. Under the orders of the major, the fighters held their breath, armed with machine guns but did not fire, and only waited for the knife ants to enter the best range before acting.

The mountain peaks were terribly quiet, as long as the whistling wind and the strange sound of sword ants crawling sounded in the mountains. The atmosphere was tense and depressing, except for a limited number of people, the rest were all breathing heavier, and the pressure in their hearts could be imagined.

Just as the striker of the Knife Ant entered the optimal range set by Korges, the Major waved his arm sharply. Suddenly, a hundred guns rang out in unison, and a staggered firepower net stopped the knife ants, constantly bombarding these big ants and causing countless casualties.

Just as the battle for the Wind Erosion Wasteland began, Colonel Berry walked back and forth with a solemn face, and he was in the command hall of the base. Just half an hour ago, according to the procedure, the base took the initiative to contact Kojies, but received no response. Colonel Berry was informed and hurried to his arrival, and communication was still at bay.

"It's been half an hour." Berry shouted, "Inform Perich and Jordan and let them each take their men to the Wind-Damaged Wasteland, Corges may have an accident." ”

"Damn, that's not a good situation."

The Blood Eagle base has realized that this is not the right situation and is sending reinforcements, but the battle for the Wind Erosion Wasteland is beginning to heat up. As a large number of sword ants were knocked down the cliff, the infantry of the sword demon began to mix in the attacking sword ants to attack the mountain road. Most of the enemy soldiers will be killed along with the sword ants, but some of them will be able to cross the fire network and advance to the Federation's defenses, which will require non-commissioned officers.

After repelling a wave of sword demon infantry, Mord gasped and retreated. This round is for Allen to play, and the advantage of his team is very obvious, including Allen, there are four non-commissioned officer-level figures. Alan led the way with his fangs, followed by Willik and the others. Under the whistling line of fire, several sword demon soldiers crossed the line of fire and rushed towards with a strange roar of arm blades.

Alan pounced on the sword, and the fanged bone knife brought up a gray moon ring, and the light of the sword shrouded several enemy soldiers. The sword demon infantry fell one after another, and they all had a wound pulled out of their throats by their fangs, cutting off the major arteries and splashing blood. Alan is also not in love with war, and he retreats when he succeeds. At this moment, two horsemen suddenly rushed out of the enemy formation, and two wolf knights were both armed with spears. One of them raised his spear and was about to throw it, when suddenly a faint golden light slashed through the air like lightning, instantly opening a bloody hole in his forehead.

There was a gunshot behind him, and Alan didn't have to look back to know that it was Lucy who fired the gun.

The spear-wielding knight landed on the ground, spun twice, and turned into another corpse on the battlefield.

But there was still a horse rushing forward.

Eren suddenly froze, snorted, and rushed forward. Hundreds of thousands of starfire erupted in his arms and covered the knight, and the sword demon knight danced his spear wildly to protect his body, and the clanging crit sound was non-stop. But just when the knight thought that Allen's attack would never stop, the sparks in the sky suddenly disappeared. Hundreds of thousands of stars turned into an orange sky fire and burst into the sky, and the knight shouted and handed over the spear.

The bone knife carrying the flame slashed right at the tip of the enemy's spear, and the flame was hit by the source force, and it hit along the spear, like a fiery snake. The knight was startled and let go of his spear. Alan snorted coldly, and while retracting his sword, he lightly picked up the spear, and the spear wrapped in flames immediately flew out upside down, turning into a flash of fire and instantly piercing the knight's chest.

The knight screamed and fell to the ground, rolling down the cliff and knocking down several knife ants. The screams disappeared in an instant, lingering in the mountains for a long time.

Eren retreats, and Willik and Bloy staggered with him. The two of them attacked with iron fists and heavy axes at the same time, stopping the soldiers and wolf riders who were surging from the enemy formation one by one.

After a moment of tearing and killing, the four Allen retreated to the rear, and other non-commissioned officers filled the battle positions.

In the time to rest, the four of them sat silently. At such a time, even the strength to speak needs to be saved, and only by squeezing every ounce of strength can it be possible to live. Ten minutes later, it was time for them to go into battle again. The short time shows the fierceness of the enemy's offensive.

Cogess's face was as cold as water.

The defensive line is retreating, the enemy's offensive is like a tidal wave, and the other side is reaching its limit. The ammunition was almost gone, and only two snipers still opened fire from time to time, killing and repelling some of the strategically important enemies. The ordinary soldiers had already drawn their standard steel eagle swords for close combat, and the enemy's sword ants were left with few ants, and the infantry had nearly half of them killed and wounded, but the wolf knight was still strained.

In addition to being killed by Allen and several non-commissioned officers, the sword demon general no longer ordered the wolf cavalry to be dispatched, and planned to use the remaining sword ants and infantry to grind the Federation's army.

In such a situation, the federal army began to attrition, and at a rapid pace. In less than ten minutes, a third of the soldiers had already died under the knife ants and the swords of the enemy. Even non-commissioned officers like Allen began to have various injuries of varying severity, which was a sign of the decline in the physical strength of non-commissioned officers.

Now, the only one who is still complete is Kojies.

It's not that he doesn't want to make a move, but he has to guard against the opposing general. After a non-commissioned officer was strangled by several wolf horsemen who suddenly appeared, the sword demon general waved his sword, and the remaining hundred or so horsemen finally dispatched. The horned wolf roared, and the knight swung spears and battle axes and other offensive weapons, and rushed up the mountain road with great vigour, aiming at the tired and tired remnants of the Federation army.
