Chapter 552: The First Fortress Falls (Part 2)

"Boom boom!" Lin Mu, who was riding on Xiaoqi, suddenly felt the ground shaking, and his whole body trembled slightly.

"It seems that the siege of West 1 Fortress has begun." He smiled softly, knowing that he was about to reach his destination.

Before arriving at the place, he has already heard the momentum!

A siege of millions of people is spectacular.

"After the first fortress falls, will the system reward be those rare territory rewards!" Lin Mu thought of the system rewards after the fortress was captured, and he was quite looking forward to it.

The territory stele of the first fortress was to be broken by him!

In the previous life, there were lord players who occupied the fortress. Although it was someone else's strategy, they still got the system reward for occupying the fortress.

However, the lord who received the reward did not announce the reward, and most of it was just the players' speculation.

One of the most recognized rewards among players is [Territory Stone]!

Lin Mu's legs moved slightly, and the little Qi under him seemed to feel the urgency of his master. He glared at his hoof, and his figure suddenly accelerated, running away like a flash of lightning.

...

Before the players began to attack, the soldiers on the walls of the West 1 Fortress, who were waiting for battle, frowned and their hearts were surging.

"Sir, because of the abnormal behavior of the alien forces, they gathered in advance to besiege the city. We have only completed 50% of the traps such as antlers, spikes, and runes under the city, and we completed them in a very hurry." An adjutant reported with a solemn look.

"Only 50% of the traps under the city have been completed. This battle to defend the city may cost a huge price..." A general wearing heavy blue armor said in a deep voice.

"Facing this wave of millions of aliens with clear goals and no internal strife, even if I have just broken through to the Xuan-level general, the chance of holding on to this city is less than 30%!"

He is the last remaining general of the Blue Capital Corps in the West 1 Fortress, the commander of the city defense.

It turned out that he had broken through to the Xuan-level general. Under normal circumstances, when a level was broken, the subordinates would celebrate. However, at this time, the danger of destroying the city suddenly broke out, and the pressure on their shoulders increased dramatically, so they no longer had the mood to celebrate.

"How many soldiers do we have left to defend the city? Are the weapons, talismans, and elixirs sufficient?" The Xuan-level general asked in a serious tone.

"There are currently 7,600 soldiers in the city; the weapons, talismans, and elixirs for defending the city were all prepared before we rushed to this fortress earlier, and we can only deal with one or two." The adjutant said solemnly.

"What's going on? Why are the number of soldiers so small? There is no increase in supplies? Three days ago, after discovering the gathering of alien forces, didn't you ask for help from the central fortress? Didn't the support arrive?" The Xuan-level general's face suddenly changed, and he was furious.

"Sir, when you were in seclusion, the message for help had already been sent out, and it was sent four times. Several of them were escorted by a team of 100 people, but all fell on deaf ears. The soldiers who asked for help from the brother fortress next door also did not reply." The adjutant's face was bitter, and he shook his head helplessly.

"In addition, after occupying this fortress, in order to explore the resources of the bloody wasteland, according to the plan, we sent 30 teams, a total of 3,000 people, to go out to perform tasks. Only six teams can return."

"In order to deal with the recent sharp increase in the number of aliens on the grassland outside the city, we did not send any more teams to ask for help!" The adjutant said in a serious tone.

"The central fortress will definitely respond to the request for help and military information, but... the response was delayed by abnormal circumstances, or they were silenced!!" The face of the Xuan-level general gradually turned livid.

"Silence! If this really happens, it will be serious!"

He had studied in the National Army Academy and had a better understanding of basic strategies. Based on the scattered information, several worst-case scenarios were quickly analyzed.

"Could it be that the aliens have overcome the natural barriers and marched directly to the central area on a large scale?"

"Impossible, if they marched to the central area on a large scale, they should attack us from both sides..." The Xuan-level general kept thinking.

"If it weren't for the silencing, the support reserved in the central area might have been sent to other cities, and the situation in other cities might be worse than ours!"

"Alas, no matter which situation, it doesn't feel good!"

While the military marquis frowned and thought, the adjutant next to him asked:

"Mr. Junhou, the current situation is a huge deviation from the plan of the General Staff. Should we skip the previous plan and retreat directly to the central fortress and gather all our strength to hold on?"

His words were agreed by the three Huang-level generals next to him. They have very few strategies to choose from. Retreating to preserve strength is undoubtedly a better strategy.

At present, their high-end combat power is only one Xuan-level general and four Huang-level generals. Even if they were at the same level, they could win the battle, but now it was a group battle, and Xiaochu's peak combat power could not turn the tide.

Only by gathering strength, defending against several waves of attacks, and annihilating some of the aliens, then, it would be the time to blow the horn of turning defense into offense.

"Can we get out safely now?" The Xuan-level general looked at the dark sea of ​​people under the city, his face suddenly sank, and he said in a low voice.

Thinking of other cities that would also fall into such a situation

"You need to pay a partial price!" The adjutant said solemnly.

Part of the price is to give up some of your comrades. With their flesh and blood, they can delay the enemy and buy time for other brothers to evacuate!

"Even if we pay a price to evacuate the fortress, we will still face pursuit. We have missed the best time to evacuate!" Xuan-level general shook his head and said bitterly. His eyes were sharp and he could see the arms that restrained them in the alien wave.

They were all infantry in the Landu Corps. Facing those powerful cavalry, they could only become stray dogs.

The arms restrain each other, it's not just talk.

Once they are dragged on the flat ground, they will be wiped out.

According to the danger of the fortress, maybe they can fight. Although the chance of successfully defending the city is less than 30%, there is a chance after all. It is much better than the situation where the chance of life and death is controlled by others.

"Prepare to defend the city! Defend it to the death!! Take out all the supplies in the warehouse, even the buried supplies." The Xuan-level general's face changed, and the color of determination spread on his face, and he said firmly.

"Yes!" The adjutant and other yellow-level generals responded in a sonorous and powerful manner.

The buried supplies were hidden for the sake of dealing with the future. They had other plans, such as: letting the alien players take advantage of the situation, occupy the fortress, and then counterattack and continuously harvest alien soldiers.

Now they have no choice but to take them out, which means there is no follow-up plan.

Burn the boats!

"In addition, how is the plan on the southern mountain going?"

"The situation of the blood beast group on the southern mountain has been investigated. 20 elite soldiers are carrying three [Blood Soul Incense] and are lying in ambush nearby. When the signal appears, they can be launched!"

"That's great. I hope the blood beast group can cause great damage to these aliens!" The solemn expression of the Xuan-level general eased slightly.

The defenders began to prepare supplies for defending the city in a panic.

The Blood Wasteland Battle was completely out of the historical track.

...

...

While the defenders on the city wall were still preparing supplies to defend the city, the aliens had already blown the horn of the siege.

The vanguard camp and the archer camp began to advance one after another.

The soldiers of the vanguard camp all wear heavy armor and focus on defense. Some vanguard soldiers have their backpacks full of stones. When they are under the city wall, they take them out and fill the gullies to pave the way for the soldiers behind!

It is called the vanguard camp, but it is actually a death squad. They are to break the traps under the city and also to attract some firepower from the archers on the city wall.

If they are not particularly lucky, they are basically tragic martyrs who get a box lunch as soon as they appear.

Under the temptation of heavy money from several wealthy territories, there are still countless low-level lord players who accept the task of sending death.

If you get a box lunch, you get a box lunch. Anyway, there will be compensation after death. If your luck suddenly breaks out and you become the first force standing on the city wall, it will be a big deal!

You know, in some teams, several heroic and beautiful goddess-level anchors are broadcasting live throughout the whole process!

Fame and fortune, right? !

The archer camp is prepared to suppress the archers on the city wall and cover the vanguard camp. They are also extremely dangerous.

In the cold weapon battles, archers have always attracted the most hatred.

"Boom boom!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

Various dull sounds echoed on the grassland, playing a tragic yet magnificent war song.

"Brothers, charge, regardless of casualties, our goal is the gullies ahead! Fill them up for me!" A player captain pointed to the new gullies that had just been dug under the city wall and ordered with a cruel face.

The vanguard soldiers who acted as the sharp knife, under the captain's order, took heavy steps and ran forward, and then died...

"Boom..." With a sudden loud noise, the red mud ground unique to the bloody battlefield suddenly cracked, and several strong black lights burst out from it, and the black light bombarded the vanguard soldiers like lightning.

These black lights were the large-scale killing talismans hidden in the gully traps.

The players hit by the black light had no possibility of survival and turned directly into white lights of death.

The players returned to the Nuwa Temple and resurrected before they even had time to scream.

After the players died, they all turned into white light and disappeared, leaving no corpses. The same happened to the NPC soldiers under the players and the soldiers of the Blue City Legion after they died in the bloody wasteland.

They had paid a terrible price before they had made any progress. The captain of the vanguard gritted his teeth, as if he was about to break them. He held up his spear and continued to command his teammates to move forward: "Brothers, throw stones, and use our flesh and blood to pave the way for the brothers behind us."

"Bang Bang!" The vanguard soldiers who were advancing accidentally stepped on the cleverly arranged trap and fell directly into the earth pit. They were warmly greeted by sharp iron teeth with a cold metallic luster.

"Puff!"

The death of their comrades did not cause much fluctuation in the vanguard camp. After all, they were mentally prepared.

Keep moving forward!!

Unlike the vanguard camp facing the dangerous and unpredictable gullies, the archer camp was also caught in a fierce shooting.

The buzzing sound was endless, which was the sound of the archers pulling their bows and shooting upwards.

The fierce shooting was a tragic situation of white arrows entering and red arrows coming out.

The soldiers defending the city knew that those soldiers from the vanguard camp were there to die, so they could ignore them for now. They needed to focus their firepower on the archers the most!

I feel sore all over today... The update is a little late, please forgive me!
