Dragon Zero - Chapter 2271

On the land of more than one million square kilometers, with Anmosidu as the core, the Griffin Empire and the Devil Moon Empire are dotted with their own military forces. The first tentative contact between the forces of the two sides began at 3:30 pm in the town of Velia, 25 kilometers south-west of Ammosidus.

There is Sulie Lake in the north of Velia, and Sulebro swamp belt in the south. The upper and lower sides are dangerous, and the back is against the western capital, which is the key point for entering from east to west. Since ancient times, the fortifications here have been continuous for many years, and it has been even more so in recent years. The headquarters of Ammosidu sent an elite joint force and two infantry regiments to guard here. The attacker was one of the thirteen eagles, one of the king’s cronies of the Gripen Empire, nicknamed Lund of the Desert Black Eagle.

Lund came with a mixed cavalry regiment of 3,000 black-feathered lions, and was immediately attacked violently by the upper and lower cities of Verea. He kept the troops at a distance, he picked up the heavy silver crossbow named ‘Silver Mow’ behind his back, and rushed into the enemy’s magic artillery fire: “Let me see who your commander is, I will send A surprise for you.” He rode on a war horse that was in danger, aiming his crossbow at the enemy on the city wall a few kilometers away, gently blowing the golden curling sea in front of his left eye, the arrow shot out, and he was also attacked by the demon. The air wave of the rock cannon set off, and immediately backed away.

The brother of the Puna brothers was distracted by the artillery fire and the flickering light. Suddenly, a liman flew up, hit his left chest, and pinned him directly to the thick flagpole behind him in pain.

Lund, who had withdrawn from the range of artillery fire, saw his victory with a telescope, and blew the sea proudly, and ordered: “Call artillery to attack the city!”

“Brother!” The younger brother of the Puna brothers at the top of the city hurried over, and with the rune knife in his hand, cut off the half of the arrow’s tail that was exposed outside, and rescued his brother.

Sir Navarra also came and saw the silver broken arrow on the flagpole: “So far away… the opponent’s crossbow is very powerful!” He saw the person shooting the arrow, but he didn’t have time to issue a warning.

In front of the Black Feather Lion’s troops, a magic rock cannon and a magic rock thousand crack cannon pushed up the front line and blasted against the city pass.

Velia was originally the guard city of Ammosidus, and the artillery fire on the city was equally fierce. The scouts in the air watched the battle from afar, and quickly passed the situation to the commanders of both sides. However, the fighting here was intense, and the Gripen Army had no other actions for the time being, which made the defenders of Ammosidu not dare to act rashly.

An hour has passed, and the commanders of Amoxidu have some confusion. Large-scale troop accumulation is obviously labor-intensive, and the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for the attackers.

Pershing, the commander of the Ninth Army, looked at the movement on the sand table and scratched his head: “Now the only place where the war is going is Velia. From the northern line to the southern line of the Western Capital, the enemy has mobilized troops. A small number of soldiers are placed on each road and pass to monitor their movements. It stands to reason that the Gripen army can launch a north-south attack and be surrounded on three sides. Then use a mysterious method to make our army lose its magical ability, and at the same time drive The ultimate weapon, hasn’t this method been used once? What is their commander thinking?” He looked at the wise general in a sick gown, Dean Page.

Chief of Staff Gushnan said: “From what I know about the Gripen Army, they have always been good at regular warfare and legion warfare, and the current posture is indeed the same. There is no attack for a long time, are they afraid of something, or waiting for something? ”

“It is possible that the troops mobilized by the enemy have not yet reached the preset position.”

Dean said: “I think their ‘mystical power’ may not be used continuously, or even if it is used, it will not be able to incapacitate all the people of Ammosidus.”

Gush South Road: “It is indeed possible that among the soldiers who retreated from the Black Cloud Iron Plug, not all of them lost their magic power, and some people who were not far from the Black Cloud Iron Plug were found in the city. Most of them were unaffected.”

“In this way, it can be guessed that the scope of the ‘mysterious power’ is limited.” Pershing said.

Dean said: “Anmosiduno is so big, it’s hard to have any power that can make the whole city fall completely.”

Hanard frowned: “There is also a possibility that the two countries have been hostile for a long time, and there must be griffins in the imperial capital to inquire about the news. They may know that Ahan is coming with the ‘imperial bell’, and soon It will come, so it is not moving. There are even their eyeliners in the Western Capital City. Maybe they are afraid, maybe… They are waiting for Ahan to come, and use that mysterious power to make Ahan lose the ability to use ‘Imperial Bells’ .”

Everyone felt that this possibility was the most likely, and they fell into silence.

The King of the North, Dachi, hugged his chest and said, “We can’t wait here for things to happen, we should do something. Passive beatings are not my style!”

Hannard looked away from the sand table: “King of the North, you also lost your magic power, and you still have the ability to fight?”

“I still have my subordinates, and the Frost Knights.”

In the Western Capital City, in a low mountain forest, in the empty starlight pavilion, the ripples in the space are shaking and echoing, and the brilliance of magic is rippling. After walking out, 150 red-robed archmages appeared one after another, escorted by surrounding soldiers to the municipal center.

At the top of the nun’s landscape tower not far from the inter-city teleportation array, a nun in black robe and white robe stared at the direction of the teleportation array with a telescope. She didn’t put the Putting away the telescope, he pretended to use a broom to clean it a few times, and then came to the bronze bell of the clock tower and struck a strange number.

In the red brick building facing the street one block away from the nuns, the messenger, who had been sitting by the window with the window open, heard the bell, took out the Tongyi Stone under the table, and wrote on it, “The bell has tolled.” to’.

In front of the city of Verea, after more than an hour of shelling, the Gripen Empire successfully suppressed Verea’s counterattack with the excellent range of the Magic Rock Thousand Split Cannon. Lund took his mixed cavalry to prepare for a formal attack. Although the cavalry is not good at siege warfare, the air cavalry is different. There are 500 black-feathered griffins in his black-feathered lion cavalry regiment. As soon as the artillery stopped, the cavalry immediately flew over the city, and the mages in yellow robes and green robes took advantage of the air to attack the scattered enemy soldiers in the city. roll call. Although the soldiers of the Demon Moon also have gaps, their fighting qualities are still very high. In such a passive situation, they are still organized in an orderly manner to form a team-style defensive lineup.

“Sir Navarra.” The adjutant found Navarra who was gathering troops under the city defense and was ready to face the enemy in an all-round way and said: “We have asked the Western Capital for help, but the Western Capital does not seem to be ready to send troops to support us.”

“Then do we have any instructions to leave or leave them?”

The adjutant said, “Let us decide on our own from the staff room. Damn, how can Xidu ignore us?”

“The command is worried that this is a trap and is trying to lure them out of the city.” Navarra thought for a while and said, “Find the Puna brothers and ask them to integrate their personnel and evacuate. I will lead this team of cavalry to break the back.”

Demon Moon’s cavalry and horses are well-trained, Navarra jumped on the horse and went out, and the rest of the cavalry followed. While riding and running, they countered the aerial archery, and the arrows were still quite accurate in the two-way movement.

The desert black eagle Lundling, who jumped to the top of the city, opened the city gate, and his 2,500 cavalry swarmed into the city, destroyed the remaining fortifications, and rushed to the center of the city. These cavalrymen are crowned with red tassel, silver and black armor, long cavalry charge spears in their hands, red griffon shields in the form of water droplets on their arms, sabres on their waists, and horses with protective gear.
