Chapter 1167 Defense
Serakwen, this is a small city located in the eastern part of the Demon Race. The city is not large, and the population does not exceed 40,000. This is a peaceful small town in the east. Because it is far away from the front line, it has not experienced war in the world for nearly a hundred years. The demon civilians here live a simple and fulfilling life.
But these peaceful lives were broken until a few days ago. A soldier hurriedly rushed to the city lord's mansion to meet the city lord. This was witnessed by many people. People speculated what happened, but just Not long after, the city lord here directly issued an order, and everyone retreated immediately and headed towards Ai Kaiwen City in the southeast, because... the undead tribe came.
This was like a bolt from the blue to the civilians of Serakvin. Everyone's first thought was, how is this possible, how did the undead come back to this place. Similar to the common belief on the mainland, in their view, the undead race is definitely a monster that eats people without spitting out bones. They have heard news before that people from the west said that the undead race and the human race are now fighting the demon race. I heard about this incident, but after all, they are already an inland city on the east coast. For them, war should be out of reach, but now they have actually encountered it.
Leaving his hometown is a very cruel and unacceptable thing for anyone, but Farah, the city lord here, also showed up to explain to the people in person. The entire Selakwen City has only 200 guards (this is not a regular army. It can only be regarded as a reserve), and the enemy has an army of nearly 30,000 undead, which is unstoppable no matter what living. Moreover, according to the reports from the soldiers in front, these undead were simply insane. Almost none of the cities they traveled along the way were spared, and all of them were slaughtered.
Although they didn't want to leave their hometown, the threat of death made them compromise. Under the leadership of the city lord Farah, most of the people began to head towards the southeast of Ai Kaiwen City.
It turned out that it was only halfway through. The new news here is that the undead tribe has lost. Yes at midnight. The troops of the undead were attacked by the demon army, the army was beaten and scattered, and the demons won a big victory. Hearing this news, all the people cheered. Shouting slogans such as Long Live the Emperor Bazela.
So the question is, since the army of the undead tribe has been defeated, do they still need to run away? Obviously, most people don't want to leave their hometown, so after a small sum, many people said that they should go back directly.
The city lord, Farah, also thought about it for a while, thinking that since the undead tribe here has been defeated, they should be fine. It's been too long since a war happened here, and I don't know how dangerous it is. These naive guys really turned back in the end.
Then there is no more. The people here have just returned to the city, and they haven't left their burdens yet. The undead clan has arrived. Yes. It was the troops led by Ryuk who had just been attacked. They had just received the latest order from Li Huailin, asking them to gather in a nearby city for reorganization, and then set up a temporary teleportation point.
And the nearest city to them is here, Selakwen City.
"My lord, all three city gates have been controlled, and the city lord's mansion has been suppressed." The one who is reporting to Ryuk is Suproan. Although starting from a small soldier, Xiupu Luoan himself is also flying, and the person introduced by Li Huailin has been promoted to Ryuk's personal guard in just a few days. It is really like a rocket. The upgrade speed is almost the same as Rick's adjutant now.
"Damn it, Suproan blamed me for not listening to you." Luke here also said a little regretfully. At that time, Suproan did tell him that the army has not received any decent due to continuous victories. So I was a little proud and complacent, and the defense at night was not very tight, so I was beaten by the demons here without any precautions, and now I regret it. As the coach, Liu here Ke is also very self-blaming.
"Sir Lord, don't talk about this." Shupluoan said immediately, "The important thing now is to ensure that the current team, the demons here will catch up. I just saw this team. The small city has been in disrepair for a long time, and the city walls are very unstable, should we go back to the big city to the west?"
"No..." Luke said immediately, "His Highness's order is to immediately establish a temporary teleportation point in a nearby city. His Highness's order cannot be violated. We must establish a temporary teleportation point here."
"This..." Suproan thought about it for a while, and then said immediately, "There is a teleportation point in the city, but of course it can no longer communicate with the undead. It will take some time to repair and adjust. It is estimated that we can connect tonight."
"Call someone to make adjustments right away." Luke said immediately, "Hurry up and strengthen the city wall now, we must defend it until night."
"Yes, my lord." Suproan also started to act immediately.
"My lord." Shuproan had just retreated, and a guard came up next to him, "There are still about 40,000 demon civilians in the city, what should we do?"
"I don't have time to deal with them now." Luke here thought for a while and said, usually they must all be slaughtered, but now there is really no time, "Let them all go home and stay at home, as long as they dare to appear on the street , directly killed."
"Yes, my lord."
After all the orders were given, the undead tribe immediately started to act. All the people began to collect materials to strengthen the city wall, and the soldiers also drove these civilians back to their homes to stay. Ryuk is praying, praying that the demon troops here will not catch up so quickly, give them a little time to rest, it is best to wait until night...
It's a pity that Luke here is usually a person who doesn't ask for God, and he really can't be blessed. The undead army here has just entered the city for less than 2 hours, and when the maintenance of the city wall has just begun, the soldiers came to report. A large number of troops appeared to the north.
"My own people, my own people..." Ryuk here hurriedly muttered, it would be best if Fiona or Dennis's troops were ordered to join them here, don't talk about the demon chasers.
The result was quite unfortunate. I was really afraid of something. Ryuk’s prayer fell through again. As soon as the troops from the north approached, it was 100% not the troops of the undead. It was too obvious. Of course, this was the pursuit of the demons .
"Huh..." Luke here also took a deep breath looking at the dark demon army. It was too chaotic last night. I didn’t even see how many troops the demons had when they were attacked. Let’s take a look at it during the day. Can't see the right, this army, at least tens of thousands, the demons can still gather so many troops, because the human race and the undead race don't attack each other's main city, so they don't leave any troops to defend at all?
Looking at the opponent's troops, it is obvious that the opponent is not a regular army of the Demon Race. The composition is really chaotic. Although the banners are all the banners of the Demon Race, the armor and weapons are not uniform. It seems that they are patchwork The motley army, thinking that he was defeated by such a motley army, Ryuk here also felt a little hot.
Although there are no names, there are many people after all. As the troops get closer and closer, all the undead soldiers are also a little nervous.
"Prepare to defend." Luke here made up his mind to stick to the night and did not plan to break through. Although he is not prepared enough now, he has no choice but to bite the bullet.
The two sides didn't mean to talk before the battle at all. The demons already hated the undead. As soon as the team approached, the demons here directly blew the attack horn, and the troops here directly moved towards the small army. The small city of Seraquewen rushed over.
"Warriors of the undead tribe, don't be afraid, as long as you stand firm until night, we will have reinforcements!" Luke shouted, "Ready to fight!"
"Roar!" I have to say that the morale of the undead troops is still good. Although they have just experienced a big defeat, they still have a great advantage in facing the demons. Seeing the demon troops all over the mountains and plains, they are not very of fear.
The battle began immediately, and the demon army here immediately began to attack the city. To be honest, the city wall of Serakwen City was so broken that basically no siege equipment was used, and it was possible to climb up the cracks on the wall, not to mention the The demon army really has a siege weapon. The undead tribe here saw it, isn't this their own siege weapon? The big camp was robbed last night. Of course, these things fell into the hands of the other party. I didn't expect the other party to use them immediately. This is really...
Due to the huge gap in the number of people and the fact that the city is not strong, the undead tribe here is in a huge crisis not long after the battle started. The first problem is the north city gate, because the city gate is too broken. The fierce attack and slamming made the door a little unable to withstand it.
"Everyone go down to the door!" Luke shouted immediately.
Suproan rushed down here with his people, trying to block the opponent's attack, but before they could go down, another bad news came.
"My lord, there are people making trouble in the city." The guards here reported that the people in the city couldn't bear it when they saw the reinforcements coming. Let's get started.
"Damn it, these demon bastards! I should have killed them all." Luke shouted.
"Lord..." The undead soldiers all looked at Ryuk, and at this moment they began to have the idea of breaking out and retreating.
"I want..." Luke here just wanted to give the order to stick to it, and suddenly glanced because he saw a black shadow appearing in the sky directly behind the demon army in the north.
"What is that?" Luke asked strangely. (to be continued)
