A strange world

Chapter 828 Chapter 59. Final preparations

Dumbledore was already very fast. Many mages performed alchemy and research on a weekly basis, but he still only managed to complete the third knight golem before the Skaven forwards reached the mountains.

Currently, only magic guns count as half an industrial production line. Annan originally wanted to establish a production line after developing the six-armed knight golem, but time did not wait for him.

Annan had no choice but to hurriedly set up a golem factory and asked Bronzebeard to work part-time as the factory director. He then worked hard for Bronzebeard and promised to find a group of dwarves to come to Liberty City after the war.

In addition, Annan also publicly introduced the Knight Golem. Its strength was between elites and masters, which aroused the interest of many businessmen. However, after saying that "the money to make a Knight Golem is enough to hire three masters" After the price, it received a cold reception.

"We care about the lives of the soldiers of Free City." Such words were inappropriate to say on this occasion, so Francois said: "But the loyalty of the Knight Golem will love you more than your son."

But sales are still zero.

Annan didn't care, his attention was all on the north, and he even sent the only three knight golems there.

"The golem will only rust if left in the warehouse."

And throwing it on the battlefield makes it easy to find shortcomings and improve them.

The elite team led by Blom, the Hellfire led by Femi, and the Fourth Legion led by Ilymayas all gathered in Hell Mountain, where almost all the combat power of the entire country of Liberty City was gathered.

Grand Duke Girardi also wanted to get involved, but Annan refused and asked him to transfer people to the border of the principality to keep the rat people out.

If you dare to let 10,000 rat-men in, these 10,000 rat-men will turn into hundreds of thousands within a few months.

It was noon on August 8th, and there were only four days left in the week required by the Orr Empire.

This is good news. The bad news is that reports from the front line indicate that the ratmen entering the mountains have raised the battle flag of the Ironthorn Tribe, and this is the only news they know.

I don’t know what the Iron Thorn Tribe is or how strong it is.

But the rat tide that besieged Blackwatch never raised its battle flag...

Jerry didn't know where he and the gray rat priest had gone, and since he couldn't contact Maria, Annan couldn't inquire about the Ironthorn tribe.

Fermi had sent a white dragon to conduct an aerial exploration, but he was discovered by the Rat Man when he was only three or four miles away. The green evil energy wrapped around the dragon's body, making it almost impossible to come back.

Ilimoyas personally went to the north to explore the Iron Thorn Tribe and discovered a large number of champion rats and rat priests behind the rat tide, confirming that this was the real main forward of the rat people.

Not only them, Ilimoyas also discovered other rat-man tribes in other directions... Obviously, the rat-men were about to launch a full-scale attack.

When the rat tide in the north was still half a day away from Hell Mountain, everyone from the Elite Team, Hellfire, and Fourth Legion gathered in the open space of the camp and watched Annan's pre-war mobilization.

Thousands of pairs of eyes looked at Annan in front of the arched portal. His background was the peaceful Liberty City and the beautiful bay.

"We were once people from the North, and now we have become people from the Middle Earth..."

Annan's words echoed over the camp: "But don't forget who drove us out of our homes and forced us to start a new life."

"Ratmen! They reduced the city to ruins, made the wheat fields disappear, and made our brothers and sisters pass away. We have escaped to Middle-earth, but they are still not satisfied and want to attack us again!"

As Annan's voice became louder and louder, everyone's eyes burned with the flames of revenge.

They will never forget what the Skaven did in the north.

"Then let them come, so that those ratmen who dare to invade will not be able to survive this year's Great Horned Rat Day!"

Annan took a deep breath: "If they dare to open their mouths, their teeth will be knocked out!"

Looking at those young faces, how many will fall into eternal sleep in a few days?

Olmedo watched Annan's cheeks gradually soften, and when he was about to open his mouth, he stood up and interrupted him: "What I want to say is... this war is destined to be cruel. But this is a battle of survival. We and Rat There can only be one winner among people.”

"Fight and stop the Ratmen in the Gray Mountains forever."

The portal closed, and Annan asked Olmedo, who suddenly stood up to give a speech: "Why did you stop me?"

"Don't let emotions affect your rationality... They are soldiers." Olmedo knew what Annan just wanted to say: You still have a way out, and I will take you back when the crisis comes.

How much fighting spirit do soldiers who are ready to evacuate at any time still have?

"I know……"

But promise is one thing, and action is another.

At this critical moment, Annan didn't care about the Orr Empire. No one could stop him from taking the soldiers home.

…

Femi led the adjutant to inspect the camp for the last time.

The top of Hell Mountain has been poured with cement, and from a distance it looks like it is covered with a layer of gray scab.

This gray area extends nearly 100 meters out of the camp and represents the range of the magic musket.

At the same time, this smooth slope will give rolling stones and logs a powerful acceleration.

Femi also adopted Belial's suggestion and dug an underground warehouse under the camp to store supplies and hide the portal.

The ratmen do not have air troops, but no one knows whether the ratman priests can spy on the situation in the camp.

After Annan learned of Belial's existence, he hired him as a staff officer to assist Fermi.

Belial did not refuse. He originally stayed in Hell Mountain in order to fight the Ratmen again, and the contacts he had in the past few days also made him want to help these young guys.

In addition to the fully armed Hellfire soldiers as the main force, the orcs took off their heavy armor and also stood at the front line.

They only need to be responsible for throwing stones.

Hell Mountain does not need close combat. When the ratmen rushed to the camp, they could no longer win, so they only kept 28 goblin golems and 3 knight golems to block the front line.

The Mage Corps took the time to recuperate.

The next battle does not require the participation of the Mage Corps. Maintaining the magic barrier and preventing the evil energy from falling into the camp recklessly is their only task.

The elite team is responsible for protecting the Mage Corps.

Even the goblins have their own things to do - grinding the rolling stones and logs into a shape that is easy to roll down the mountain, and preparing arrows for the elves and rangers, a lot of arrows.

Ilimoas took the white dragons away from Hell Mountain in advance. They will try to find an opportunity to sneak attack the rat priests. Even if they fail, one blue dragon and thirteen white dragons can harass the rat tide on the periphery.

Broken Tooth and Miller are the only two soldiers who were squeezed out of the front line. They passed unanimously and no protests were allowed.

This was a well-intentioned arrangement - they were worried that if they were too bloodthirsty, they would mistake the two for intruders and kill them.

The wind from the high altitude blew over the hills. As the mist lingering around the mountain peaks faded, the people in the camp saw the endless black wave.
