Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 110 Caledor's War
In the battle command room of the Dragon Palace, Randy was looking down at Caledor's military map.

Since Imrik went to Avalon alone to support him, he has been the actual controller of Caledor. He has won this honor many times from his closest comrade-in-arms, Prince Mikhail.

Although he understands the need for Imrik to rescue the Eternal Queen, he still disagrees. Only Imrik is left in the dragon tamer family. If he dies in Avalon, Caledon will be completely destroyed. Silence, the Dragon Prince cannot charge in the echo of the dragon horn, all efforts will be in vain.

As a veteran, he resisted the uneasiness and turned his attention back to Caledor. Several portals had appeared in the country, and many Druzzi were trying to assassinate the sleeping giant dragon in the Dragon's Back Mountain Range.

But after Vaal Anvil sent a large number of manpower to support the granite fortresses everywhere, these Drucci's surprise attacks were just a waste of life. The attack cost the Druzzi dearly, and brought intelligence back to the fortress.

The army led by the high-ranking dragon prince directly attacked Duluqi. With the cooperation of the giant dragon and the two churches, they quickly defeated the plot of those evil cousins. There were fires burning Duluqi's body all over the Dragon's Back Mountain Range.

A person ran in anxiously from the outside, holding an emergency report in his hand. This was a message from the Palace Mage Tower, "Emergency information, there are several portals leading to the Chaos Demon Realm in Wind Howl City and Kale The vicinity of the resting place opened up, and a large number of Tzeentch troops poured out from it, led by two ever-changing demon kings."

Randy, who was looking at the map, suddenly looked at the messenger servant. The appearance of Tzeentch means that this war has attracted the attention of the Lord of Change.

Those big birds can turn the war into a mess at any time. This is undoubtedly extremely bad news. Without the support of Saffrey, the means of countering magic are somewhat insufficient, but fortunately, before Imric left, he also left Some cards.

"Let Ronin take people and the demon-suppressing iron chains to Wind Howl City, and inform the two court mages to go to the Caledon resting place, and the four high-ranking dragon princes will support the two places respectively."

Not long after, Randy issued an order. As the main city of Caledor, Tar Kared has strict protective facilities. Le Duo strengthened, but more solid.

But even so, he couldn't relax his vigilance. This main city was extremely important. As long as there was a slight mistake, it would be a disappointment to the expectations of his ancestors. He needed to sit here and be the backbone of the dragon lord when he was not in the country.

…………

"Stay where you are!" Bruni, who gave the order, was riding on a pure-blood elf horse, holding the flag of the Flame Spear, which was the flag of the Sunhorn Cavalry. He did not become a high-ranking dragon prince. request.

The prince hoped that he could lead this troop to the front line all the time. The high-ranking dragon prince could be replaced by someone else, but the general of this cavalry troop could only be Bruni.

Bruni, who was naturally silent, accepted the Prince's request, and though it meant giving up a great honor, he obeyed the arrangement.

Raising his lance, Bruni was observing the movement ahead.

Caledon's resting place has fewer guide stones, resulting in more portals than other places, and the enemy is a mixed army of Druzzi and Chaos Horde.

His task is to attack the enemy with long-range firepower. After Caledor's melee troops approach the enemy, the Dragon Prince will snipe the enemy's cavalry, while the Sunhorn cavalry will directly attack the enemy's weak point and cut the battlefield.

After the Chaos octagonal banner gradually appeared on the hill, the atmosphere in Caledor's army began to be heavy. Reports from the kingdoms showed that the invasion was by the Chaos tribe and the Druzzi army. These evil cousins ​​​​have joined forces with Chaos. , which is one more reason to despise them.

Because of the advantages of equipment, Caledon's traditional formation has undergone some changes. The archers are in front, the infantry stands behind, the artillery is on the rear side, the cavalry defends the flank positions on the left, and the light infantry covers the flanks on the right.

Anisar, the general of Caledo's Rest, continued Randy's combat style. He gave up using cavalry to defend on the right side. More cavalry can open up the situation and cooperate with the dragon to strangle the enemy, then the war will soon end.

Chaos believers covered with tentacles and horns appeared first. Under the leadership of warlords, these abandoned people are usually used as cannon fodder, because they don't know what war is, only know how to kill.

They appeared on the battlefield with unbearable blessings of chaos, no longer wielding battle axes or long swords, but sharp claws or sword-like tentacles protruding from their arms, without the slightest reason at all, like a walking dead, Can't wait to use these mortal lives to satisfy the masters of Chaos.

It was not the archers who were the first to attack. There was still a distance of more than [-] meters between the two sides. At this distance, even the elf archers would find it difficult to hit and cause effective damage. It was the ballista that fired first.

These new ballistas are drawn by two horses. Through the cooperation between the Vaal church and the craftsman workshop, two types were successfully produced.

One is a ballista for field use, which Imric named the Dragon Claw Ballista.

Under the enchantment of Priest Vaal, this kind of ballista will produce a flame explosion effect when it hits the enemy, and it can also use the shotgun mode. Except for the cost of the ballista, which makes Imrik want to sell his underwear to Etila, there are almost no shortcomings.

Twenty dragon-claw ballistas fired first. After the gunner adjusted the trajectory, the eight enchanted bolts on the gun mounts attacked the abandoned people. A total of 160 bolts dragged the tails of flames, forming a barrage of fireworks in the air, carrying broken arrows. Shoot empty shots at those abandoned.

The abandoned people were pierced by the kinetic energy of the siege arrows, and driven by the arrows, they were fixed on the hills. The enchanted inscriptions on the arrows began to activate, and bursts of explosions sounded, blasting a small hole in the ground. These were unbearable Many Chaos Blessing Ones were blown to pieces one after another.

The pus and blood of chaos began to defile this land that had been neglected for thousands of years.

After successfully killing some of the Forsaken, what followed was the backbone of the Chaos Tribe—the Chaos Marauders.

Armed with battle axes and shields, they are eager to win the favor of the Chaos gods on the battlefield in order to gain greater power.

"Cannon fodder." Anisar, who was riding on Death Fang, squinted at the Chaos Marauders and shouted, "Blood for the Blood God, skull for the skull seat!"

He had already guessed the opponent's tactical arrangement, using these cannon fodder to attract long-range firepower, and on the side, it might be those swamp monsters lurking in the dark to attack.

He is very relieved of the Dragon Prince covering the flanks, but the enemy will inevitably notice the weak point on the right side of his own position.

"The dragon halberd guards moved to the right, and the light infantry phalanx withdrew to the rear of the artillery."

As Imrik's guards, the dragon halberd guards have been assigned to various locations and entered under the command of the generals. Usually, they will serve as the guard of honor of the dragon lord and the guard of the palace.

During the war, Imrik's position on them was also very clear, that is, the main resistance line and output troops, and the flame-piercing halberd would make any enemy who underestimated them pay the price.

Following the command of the commander, several flags began to be waved, and Caledon's formation began to change. Light infantry can still be used against cavalry and can be responsible for part of the interception work, but if it is monster infantry, other more Professional troops to handle.

Just when Caledo finished adjusting the formation, the enemy was already close to the front line. After shooting for several rounds, the archers began to retreat, and the spearmen would take their place.

The Chaos Marauders allowed the troops in the rear to close in on the Caledorian army at the cost of ballista and arrow fire.

Just when they wanted to kill these cowards who used long-range weapons, the long-awaited spearmen had already stepped forward, and the two-meter-long enchanted spears couldn't wait to try their edge with these chaotic believers.

Accompanied by the charge of the predators, the Chaos long-range troops mixed in it also started to project. Throwing axes and javelins are things they are very good at using. They don't care about the teammates in front of them, and only think about how to win the favor of the gods.

Berserkers without armor also mixed in, these people were eager to win the blood god's praise on the battlefield, so as to walk the road of chaos.
