Legendary Hero
Chapter 294 The Battle of Clearwater City
The plan was determined, and the generals of Clear Water City began to implement it immediately.
The cavalry sneaked into the Vale of Arryn, and deliberately chose to set off at noon, when the sun was scorching hot. At this time, there was no need to worry about the undead watching over the sky.
Obviously, this is a dangerous job. The commander of the cavalry is not Luo Lin. As the commander-in-chief of Clearwater City, he has to be in the middle. Therefore, Marquis Zacro Mullen and Joseph Martin are jointly responsible for this part.
The other generals remained in the city. In order to deal with possible accidents, five hundred elite cavalry were left in the city.
The scouts were sent out continuously, covering almost the entire plain. They had two tasks, one was to obtain the detailed movements of the undead, and the other was to search for the undead scouts to ensure that the other party could not obtain enough information.
Because of the ambush in the valley, Luo Lin sent extra scouts, almost completely sealing off the plain.
Of course, the undead are not vegetarians, and they have also sent a large number of scouts. When the two sides meet, they will fight without saying a word.
Before the battle really started, the plain was already full of swords and blood, and both sides lost more than 30 scouts every day.
Two days later, the Undead Buster Potion arrived smoothly. There were 500 barrels in total, 200 barrels were placed in the valley, and the remaining 300 barrels were left in Clear Water City.
But at this point, everything is ready, just waiting for the army of undead to arrive.
Two days later, an army of undead appeared under the city wall of Clearwater City. The ground was covered in darkness, and a strong breath of death radiated out, forming a large black cloud visible to the naked eye in the sky.
The dark clouds slowly moved towards the city of Clear Water, giving people an incomparably huge sense of oppression. It was completely a real rehearsal of the black clouds pressing down on the city and wanting to destroy it.
Several officials on the city wall who were observing the situation turned green. They barely stayed for a few minutes before finding a reason to retreat from the city wall.
Luo Lin was also on the city wall. He looked at the undead army that was constantly pressing down, his expression calm as usual. When the opponent came within a distance of 1,500 meters, he raised his hand and shouted: "The trebuchet is ready!"
The trebuchet throws not stones, but undead potion barrels.
There was a "creaking" winding sound, and the trebuchet was ready to go.
"Open the city gate! Get out of the city and line up!" Luo Lin shouted again. At this time, the undead were still 1,200 meters away from the city wall.
These undead did not need to camp and rest like the army of creatures. When they arrived, they immediately started to attack without any hesitation, so Luo Lin also directly prepared to go to war.
The city gate was wide open, and the infantry that had been prepared for a long time filed out of the city through the gate opening, and formed a square formation outside the city gate. There were a total of 20,000 people. But the momentum is also quite powerful, a majestic air soars to the sky.
Luo Lin's tactics are a bit strange. Instead of defending the city, he wants to confront the undead army head-to-head on the plain. Any well-educated commander can smell the conspiracy in it!
The commander of the undead apparently thought so too.
"Boom!" The army of undead suddenly stopped advancing, their movements were uniform, no one spoke, hundreds of thousands of people suddenly stopped moving, and the silence on the plain was like midnight, which was a bit shocking.
"Why did they stop?" A general on the city wall asked strangely.
"Maybe it feels wrong." Angela said, she was also on the city wall, right next to Luo Lin.
"Look, there are black giants in the battle formation! Fortunately, there are not many of them." A general pointed to the center of the army.
Luo Lin looked over and saw the so-called black giant, and when he saw the other person's appearance clearly, he was immediately shocked.
These 'giants' are nearly two meters five tall, with a strong body, wearing black armor, blood-red eyes, and holding similarly huge and hideous weapons in their hands.
Of course, Luo Lin knew that this was not a giant, but a demon. From the looks of it, it was still a powerful war demon.
War demons, creatures of the abyss, are known for their berserk power. A war demon like this can have the same strength as a quasi-sage, but its vitality will greatly exceed that of a quasi-sage. If a quasi-sage can't kill his opponent in a short time, he must be exhausted to death.
The War Demon is powerful, but the number is relatively small, but looking at the opposite army formation, there are hundreds of such huge black shadows, which is equivalent to the sudden increase of more than a hundred quasi-sage-level powerhouses in the undead camp.
Once the powerhouses of this level become large-scale, and the number reaches hundreds, the burst of power is terrifying. Such a centurion is enough to block the cavalry charge head-on!
This is not Luo Lin's conjecture, but his personal experience in his previous life. When the elite cavalry of the Frost Crusaders of the Aoraki Kingdom launched a charge on the plain, they encountered a group of such abyssal war demons.
At that time, the number of War Demons was more than two hundred, while the number of cavalry in the Crusaders was eight thousand. The result of the collision between the two sides was that both sides suffered losses. Nearly 6,000 cavalrymen died in battle, and more than 30 war demons died.
Even if the most elite cavalry in the entire continent fought so fiercely, let alone this impromptu team in the valley.
If the cavalry's charge is blocked, the cavalry who has lost speed will be deeply trapped in the army of the undead, and the entire army will be wiped out in an instant.
This is definitely a big surprise!
Luo Lin frowned, because the demon appeared too early, a full year earlier than in the previous game.
But no matter what, he must respond as soon as possible.
Army of the undead.
The commander of the undead is not an undead, but a demon lord. His name is Aksu, and he is nearly three meters tall. Although he looks very wild on the outside, he is thick and thin, and he is a qualified commander.
He looked at the city wall in front of him and fell into thought.
After thinking for a while, he issued an order to several gargoyles: "Look around and see if there is any place nearby where you can hide your army."
He immediately suspected that the opponent had set up an ambush, which is the basic quality of a commander.
The gargoyles scattered and began to patrol the surrounding area.
About fifteen minutes later, a gargoyle brought back news of an ambush in the Vale of Arryn.
Aksu laughed: "Stand back! The low-level undead warriors stand in the back and block those ants. The other warriors follow me to the valley, and we go and destroy the group of riders!"
The undead were immediately divided into two parts. At least 100,000 ordinary undead remained on the plain, while the high-level undead and demons separated and began to march towards the Vale of Arryn.
One hundred thousand ordinary undead, even if the power of each undead is about the same as that of an ordinary adult man, it is of course incomparable with the strength of a regular soldier, but after the number reaches a hundred thousand, if the ants bite more dead elephants, even if they cannot win, it is enough to stop them from attacking. The footsteps of the human infantry.
Rollins has already responded.
He descended from the city wall, mounted his storm steed, and left the city with a spare five hundred cavalry.
Now the situation is very obvious, the key to the battle is not the undead, but whether or not the demon centurion can be eliminated.
If it could be eliminated, then it would be fine even if the other party entered the Vale of Arryn. His pre-planned strategy was enough to eliminate the undead. If the demons cannot be wiped out, then when this centurion rushes into the valley, they will definitely carry out a one-sided massacre in the narrow valley without being affected by the smoke of the undead nemesis.
Before setting off, Luo Lin left Angela on the city wall, and solemnly instructed: "After I go, unless I win, I will never open the city gate!"
There are still a large number of militiamen and some soldiers left in the city. In case Luo Lin fails, they can also use the city wall to defend the front and wait for reinforcements.
Angela was shocked, a complex look flashed in her eyes, and then she nodded heavily: "I understand."
Bringing 500 cavalry to the front of the infantry formation, the ordinary undead had already charged towards Clearwater City again, and they were less than 500 meters away. Luo Lin shouted an order: "Tabuster, launch!"
The wooden barrels were thrown from the city wall by the trebuchet, spanning hundreds of meters, and smashed heavily into the undead army formation, causing thick smoke to rise.
In this round of throwing, two hundred wooden barrels of medicine were thrown down, and the sky was filled with smoke. Wherever the smoke passed, ordinary undead fell to the ground one after another, and the effect was incomparably astonishing.
The human magicians followed closely. They cast wind magic and controlled the smoke to sweep around in the undead army, like a dragon of smoke. Wherever they swept, the ordinary undead were dispersed. , became a broken bone.
The undead liches immediately counterattacked. They summoned the hurricane spell and tried their best to disperse the smoke.
This is a plain, and the effect of the hurricane technique is astonishing. Even if the human magicians tried their best to maintain the condensation of the smoke, they could not stop the momentum of the smoke from being dispersed.
Just as the magicians of the two sides were fighting each other, Luo Lin raised the cloud pattern sword in his hand and shouted loudly: "Warriors, attack!"
The infantry began to attack the army of undead, which had become obviously sparse and uneven. Luo Lin led the cavalry to take the lead, piercing towards the army of undead like arrows, cutting through the waves all the way, leading the infantry to chase after the advanced undead in front.
The effect of Undead Buster is really sharp, and ordinary undead don't have much power, so Luo Lin almost didn't feel any pressure when he charged all the way.
After rushing for more than ten minutes, he felt that there was nothing in front of him, and he had already broken through the army formation. When he turned his head again, he saw the undead scattered behind him. , A wave of smoke passed by, and these ordinary undead were at least 70% less, leaving less than 30,000 in number.
The infantry of the human race hardly suffered any damage. There were 20,000 of them, and their power was much greater than that of ordinary undead.
Aksu, the commander of the undead army, has been closely watching the rear battlefield. He was also taken aback when he saw this situation.
You know, the number of high-level undead is only 20,000. If they enter the valley to wipe out the cavalry, and the opponent catches up from behind and attacks back and forth, even if he is the reborn God of War, he will not be able to stop such an attack.
"What the hell is this smoke? It's so scary!" The smoke was beyond Aksu's expectations.
A lich said: "My lord, it is the potion made by the other party. It is said that it is called Undead Buster. The effect is very amazing. If it is not dispelled immediately, I am afraid that the undead army will lose its fighting power."
When the Lich said this, Aksu's heart moved, and he asked, "What if it is used in the valley?"
"..." Lich was speechless, and the valley was closed. If this thing was used, all the undead would become lambs to be slaughtered.
Aksu had roughly thought of the opponent's strategy, and said with a chuckle: "Good guy, everything is intertwined, and he almost fell into his scheme!"
If he really rushed into the valley, the ordinary undead behind him would not be able to delay the time, and if the other party lit another cigarette, the consequences would be disastrous.
Even the current situation is not good. He made a wrong decision and was immediately caught by the opponent. He lost 70,000 to 80,000 cannon fodder in vain, and his restraining effect on the opponent was greatly reduced.
Originally, his military strength was much higher than that of the human race, but now it is even at the same level. They still have some advantages, but they are not as obvious as they were at first.
After thinking about it, Aksu said, "Solom!"
"In!" A demon came out.
"I want you to take the warriors to block the human cavalry, can you do it?"
"I'll grind them into a pulp!" The demon let out a cruel laugh, and squeezed the air fiercely with a big hand.
"Very good." Aksu said, and then he issued an order to the high-level undead: "Stop advancing, line up, and prepare to fight!"
All the undead stopped, turned around, and confronted Rollin and his infantry.
"Lich, summon the bones that are still alive, I need their power!"
"Yes!" The liches began to cast spells, and there were still more than 30,000 skeletons in the field, which were rare cannon fodder.
This was the original tactic. After the loss of 70,000 to 80,000 skeleton cannon fodder, the power dropped by at least 80%, but the loss had already occurred. Aksu didn't have much time to regret it, so he immediately corrected it.
On this side, Luo Lin also began to regroup.
He has 20,000 infantry, against 20,000 high-level undead and 30,000 skeletons, he has no advantage in strength.
He still has 10,000 cavalry to attack the line of defense composed of 100 War Demons, and the possibility of breaking through is extremely small.
If the confrontation is upright, the possibility of victory can almost be described as slim.
Therefore, he has only one chance now.
That is to take advantage of the devil's centurion to fight against the cavalry. He led five hundred cavalry into the enemy's line and killed the opponent's commander.
This is a dangerous mission, even more dangerous than the original Battle of Vendome, but Luo Lin's strength is also much stronger than then, and he leads more soldiers, and the possibility of success is greater.
These thoughts flowed through his mind in an instant, and then his mind was set.
In any war, the situation is ever-changing. An excellent commander not only needs to be able to formulate perfect tactics, but a more important quality is to be able to adapt on the spot!
At this point, both the demon commander Aksu and Luo Lin have done quite well.
Luo Lin was determined, and immediately issued an order loudly: "The cavalry rest in place!"
His cavalry will face a lore charge and must rest so that their horses can recover.
"Joysen! Deronque! Take your warriors and prepare for the battle!" Rollin called out the names of the two infantry generals.
"Obey, Earl!" Two generals with the strength of great knights led the soldiers to meet the attack of the high-level undead.
Soon, the undead army and the human infantry collided. For a moment, blood and flesh splattered, and shouts of killing rang out.
The power collided fiercely, blood was splashed like money, the infantry of the human race was better than the original orcs, because they all wore armor and shields, and they were better trained. Every time they drew their swords, they cut off the undead The chances of the neck are also much higher than the orcs who fight with brute force.
Since the confrontation, the casualty ratio of human infantry and undead is about 10 to 7, and the casualties of infantry are still greater.
In this magnificent battlefield, the horses of Luo Lin and his 500 cavalry had already rested. The blood on the backs of each horse was stimulating, pawing their hooves, snorting their noses, and they were ready to go.
"Signal 1" Rowling growled.
The human magicians in the battle formation released smoke balls into the sky. The color of the smoke balls is blood red, there are three of them, they are more than two hundred meters high, and they can be seen from thousands of meters away.
This is the charge signal agreed with the valley cavalry.
Only with the cooperation of the two sides, relying on Zacrow to restrain the war demon, can Luo Lin's move succeed.
After waiting for a while, Luo Lin saw the sound of rumbling horseshoes coming from the direction of the valley of Ayrin, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and a cavalry team of ten thousand people headed by Zakro rushed over.
The hundred-man battle demon team immediately greeted them.
Right now, Rowling issued an order: "Charge!"
Under the protection of the infantry, the five hundred knights spurred their horses, first galloping in small steps, and then galloping at full speed, with the sound of rumbling horseshoes.
Led by Luo Lin, the cavalry rushed towards the position of the commander of the undead like the wind.
