Warlord: King of All Clans
Chapter 660 Enemy Movement
Most of the Kurolov family's wyverns are mid-level dragons, with only a small number of high-level dragons.
The scales of a mid-level flying dragon can only withstand ordinary bow and crossbow shooting. If it encounters the 200-pound longbows of the Savage Legion and the magic longbows of extraordinary archers, it is also at risk of being shot down.
The two seventh-level extraordinary archers of the Beowulf Legion, with the title of "Hunter King", are the chiefs of the two major wild clans in the North, and their ethnic power is second only to the Beowulf family.
They hunted high-level magical beasts in the mountains of the northern border and used their tendons and bones to make dragon-hunting longbows. The range and power were comparable to the eight-ox crossbow, and even high-level flying dragons could be killed.
If you hit a mid-level flying dragon at close range, you can shoot through both the person and the mount.
Therefore, in the city of Asgar, which is full of hunters, dragon riders are almost never seen.
However, in the wild, the dragon knights were able to ignore the terrain obstacles, cross the rear of the battle line, and attack food routes and logistics supply bases.
The supplies for the River Bend Legion were all transported from the Earldom of Grant, and they were often attacked by dragon riders.
Fortunately, although the number of extraordinary people in the River Bend Legion is slightly smaller, the per capita killing power is equal to that of low-level extraordinary shooters. Before setting off, they conducted many special drills to resist dragon attacks.
After all, a flying dragon is not a real fighter. Apart from being good at aerial combat, it can only use its strong hind claws to pounce on ground targets like a griffin.
But unlike griffins, they cannot be equipped with heavy enchanted armor, and their defense depends entirely on their own scales.
As long as hundreds of musketeers gather together and fire intensively, the flying dragon can be shot down.
Therefore, with Ivan's mobile musket regiment maintaining the food route, the Dragon Knights did not suffer too much damage.
However, if the enemy has control of the air superiority, the troop movements on our side will be clearly monitored, and the soldiers are shrouded in the shadow of flying dragon attacks all day long, which puts them under great mental pressure and has a great impact on morale.
A group of flying dragons suddenly appeared, kidnapped a few draft horses and soldiers, and then were driven away by the musketeers' bullets. Although there were not many casualties, the mental stress and confusion caused were extremely serious.
Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Leo comforted his men and revealed a piece of information, "In fact, Hewan does have a way to restrain the flying dragon, but it is an absolute secret and cannot be used for the time being."
"Now let's try to transport food, fodder and weapons into the camp, and then reduce the number of logistics convoys. Let Bjorn lead the sniper group to cooperate with the Beowulf Legion's actions and hunt down a few flying dragons to give the enemy some color."
"When the decisive battle really starts, you will see it."
On the other side of the Kurolov Legion, the injured high-level flying dragon carried the mid-level blood mage back to the barracks.
The mid-level blood mage leaned over to check the wound on the high-level dragon's abdomen, took out a dagger to cut out the deformed lead bullet, and then used blood magic to heal the dragon's wound.
The small lead bullet shattered the scales of the high-level flying dragon and penetrated into its belly, causing the strong high-level flying dragon unbearable pain.
Although it is not fatal, it can torture and kill if not treated.
The flying dragon struggled in pain, its body shaking violently, as if trying to break free from the shackles of the blood curse.
But the blood curse released on the wyvern was not formed in a day or two. It was the supreme secret technique of the Blood Moon Sect, which consumed a large amount of blood from living creatures and took several years to refine.
They are just pure blood puppets, their movements are stiff and slow, and they cannot fly smoothly. The blood curse on the wyverns only suppresses their rebellious nature, making them docile and obedient, unable to disobey the orders of their masters, but they still retain their independent consciousness.
The high-level flying dragon's eyes were sometimes clear and sometimes dull. Half a minute later, blood covered its pupils, and the whole dragon body finally stopped resisting and obediently crawled into the cage.
Back at the legion's main tent, the mid-level blood mage reported the enemy situation discovered during this reconnaissance to Count Fabuti.
The Blood Moon Sect and the Kurolov Family have been allied for many years, but they are not vassal states. Whether it is the Blood Moon Sect Master who is at the peak of level nine or the several Scarlet Bishops scattered throughout the empire, they are not under the control of Count Fabti.
The same is true for the Brutus Family in the South, which has also secretly allied with the Blood Moon Sect and cooperated in researching vampire technology, but they do not govern each other.
As a deal, Fabuti also had a number of low- and mid-level blood mages under his command, enough for him to form the Dragon Knights.
Listening to the report from the mid-level blood mage, Count Fabuti sighed and said to his son beside him: "Leo Mondo is such a strong enemy. I only regret that I didn't go and kill him myself."
The young blood mage Locke Kuroloff nodded and said, "This guy's growth rate is really amazing. The last time I was in the atrium, I almost couldn't come back. The Blood Moon Cult's Queen's Blood Coffin was also controlled by him. I just don't know if he has mastered the secret arts of the vampires."
"By the way, Gerard is still imprisoned in the courtyard. Father had better redeem him as soon as possible."
Count Falbuti laughed and said, "It's not that easy to master the secret arts of the vampires. It took the Blood Moon Sect Master a hundred years, and it took Tullius and I fifty years. The Queen's Blood Coffin has only been lost for a few years. Even if the Queen wakes up and teaches him magic wholeheartedly, it will take ten or eight years to see results."
"Now, we only need to consider the Riverbend firearms. Once we resolve this threat, everything else will be easy."
"Go back quickly and continue to recruit elite troops. Once we have replenished our forces, we will be ready to go to war."
After defending the city for another month, the Kurolov Legion took action, stopping the small-scale scout fights and dragon attacks, and sent 6,000 soldiers to bypass the city of Asgar, bypassing the battle line from the south a hundred miles away, attempting to attack the rear base of the Beowulf family.
Although the wild folk army of Beowulf's family is a rare one among the Earl's main army, they also have logistics. The Earl's main city, Kitland, is not far from Asgard, and there is a small town in the middle. This is the only food route for the Beowulf family.
The amount of food and supplies transported was not as much as what Leo purchased from the Earldom of Grant, but it was also one of the lifelines of Asgar City.
Because of the suppression of the Dragon Knight, Leo's Pegasus Knight only dared to conduct reconnaissance around the city of Asgar, and was unable to grasp the enemy situation in a timely manner.
It was not until the Kurolov Corps marched for two days and appeared on one side of the defense line that the Asgar City Alliance Army received the exact news.
This is the advantage of having air superiority. If the Pegasus Knights had not risked their lives to conduct reconnaissance in Asgar City, the movements of the Kurolov Corps would not have been known until a fighting broke out in the rear.
Without waiting for the defenders of Asgar City to react, Count Fabti once again led the main force and approached Asgar City.
In the Lord's Hall, Had's beard was raised with anger. "This is too much! We have 20,000 troops stationed in Asgar City, and Fabiti only brought one legion to attack the city. Everyone, come with me and make sure Fabiti never returns!"
Everyone ignored Count Hard's voice and discussed the battle situation seriously.
Knight Gunther said in a deep voice: "Farbuti has no intention of attacking the city. He just wants to hold our troops hostage and make us lose our way so that another legion can successfully reach the rear, block our food supply, and even attack Kitland."
