Broad World

Chapter 433: War is coming

There is a famous saying in "On War": the continuation of war history and politics.

"The Art of War" also once said: The Lord cannot be angry and prosper his teacher, and he cannot be stunned and fight.

These two sentences are both saying that in a war, try to be as sensible as possible, and don't ignore the consequences just because you are angry for a while. Although it sounds reasonable, there are not many that actually do it. Take World War II as an example, there are too many examples of brain congestion regardless of casualties and mutual deaths. You must know that this time has entered the modern era. "On War" and "The Art of War" have long been known to most senior executives. It can be seen that intelligent life can't really control their emotions at all.

However, these are all theories that were born on the earth without supernatural powers, which is a joke for the Faerun continent, which is full of terrifying monsters and supernatural powers. You should know that almost all wars here are launched by gods, various powerful and evil monsters, careerists, etc. Most of the time, they are not for profit, but just want to vent for oneself or kill an enemy.

It can be said that the entire world is a playground for many powerful people. They can start wars at any time according to their moods, while the army and civilians are just some chess pieces that can be discarded at any time, even if the number of high-ranking people die does not care too much. It is precisely because of this that many times the commander will rush up even if he knows that he will fail, and hit him to the head. Because obeying the order is at best death, but if you anger the master behind you, you will probably even die by that time.

Take the sandfish attacking the coast of Jianwan, such a large-scale attack. The main purpose is actually to collect the souls of the gods whom he believes in, so he did not hesitate to mobilize nearly 100,000 people at one time. As for the looting, it was just easy. Now the entire army has been devastated, but still refuses to retreat. Jacques Hoyas is even more crazy, preferring to let the remaining compatriots be buried with him instead of admitting failure to return to the deep sea obediently.

In the evening, the turquoise waters of the Angome Islands reflected the faint afterglow of the setting sun, and a large group of Sahua murlocs were slowly marching towards Hart Island under the sea. They thought their movements were very concealed, and did not notice the soldiers who were quietly deploying defenses on the shore. Under Shi Koudi's suggestion. Instructors and students in the college area also joined in, especially those bards who sang magical ballads, which greatly boosted morale and dispelled the fear of the unknown.

Debra touched the demon (pet) lying on his shoulder and asked Vaughn next to him: "Do you think these soldiers who have never seen blood are reliable? Will they be dissipated by the murlocs coming up for a while?"

"Don't worry, when the war starts, I will let the barbarians be at the forefront first, and then send these recruits up in batches, so that the veterans and the recruits can mature soon." said the Orc warrior. Fingers, I want to tease the "deformed cat pet". But this **** cat obviously didn't like it, and immediately turned into a hedgehog when his fingers were about to touch it.

"Hahahaha! It seems it doesn't like you." Debra said with a sneer.

Seeing the wary eyes of "Deformed Cat Pet", Vaughan could only shook his head with a wry smile. "Well, maybe it still remembers when I had to stew it back then. It's really a little grudge."

Just when the two were chatting. Suddenly a soldier shouted: "Look! What is that?"

Following the direction of his finger, waves of water appeared on the distant sea, the area beyond imagination. Debra sneered and said to the orc warrior: "They are here. You'd better prepare these rookies. I need to go back to the mage tower to inform the master."

Vaughn nodded slightly, and immediately turned around and shouted at everyone: "Enemy attack! All troops are in place! The bow and the crossbow are wound. Ready to fight at any time."

After the order was given, there were bursts of "creaking" sounds. The giant crossbows that defended the city were pulled apart one after another, and an arrow thicker than an arm was placed on the groove. The soldiers on the arrow tower and the city wall also raised their crossbows one after another, and the tense anger before the battle quickly spread to everyone.

When Bluevent City was built, Henry considered the issue of port defense, so he built two semi-arc walls, like two arms, to tightly protect the wharf area. Anyone who wants to enter All ships must walk through a passage that is not very wide. This also meant that the Sahua murlocs had to be attacked by arrows, kerosene, and magic before they rushed to the shore. Only God knows how many of them will rush past.

Soon a guy with a shark head emerged from the water, and large tracts began to appear right behind. In just a minute, the entire bay was covered with an army of murlocs. The number of them shocked the soldiers on the wall, and many of them were trembling. Although they are already well-trained veterans, this is the first time they have truly participated in the war.

Seeing the performance of the human soldiers, Vaughn couldn't help but shook his head. Fortunately, the barbarian guards were placed on the front line of the pier, otherwise it would be impossible for these guys to hold on. Thinking of this, he told an officer next to him: "I'll leave it to you here. I'm going to command the frontline troops ashore now. Remember, try to reduce the number of enemies and don't let them rush through too many at once."

"Understood!" The young officer nodded and replied excitedly.

After setting up everything, Vaughn quickly left the city wall and returned to the temporary fortifications erected on the pier. The atmosphere here is obviously different from that on the walls, and the young barbarians are gearing up to wait for the enemy to arrive. For them, war means supreme honor, and there is nothing that excites these brawny men more than cutting down the head of a powerful enemy.

As for death, will the warriors who believe in the God of War Tempus fear death? I am afraid that the entire Faerun continent will think this is a joke. These guys are a group of fighting lunatics, they are there wherever there is war, they don't care about their life or death, just to win the final victory.

The Sahua murloc swims very fast, and it didn't take long before they approached the city wall. With an order from the officer, countless arrows and ballistas started shooting. A barrel of kerosene was also poured into the sea, and then a torch was thrown away. A large sea of ​​flames immediately appeared on the surface of the sea.

However, the fire did not hinder the footsteps of these marine overlords. The experienced Jacques Hoyas immediately ordered the priest to start blessing the "protective flame", and then ordered the soldiers who were temporarily immune to fire damage to push the kerosene to the sides, so that a not-so-wide channel was exposed in the middle.

"Warriors! For the glory of the great Cycora! I now order you to charge! Kill everything you can see!" Jacques Hoyas shouted at all the murlocs. He is very clear that this operation is absolutely unsuccessful and you will become benevolent, so he did not leave any room for retreat.

After receiving the order, countless murlocs rushed to the shore frantically, and even countless ballistas and arrows could not stop them. After all, the scales on these guys can play a good protective effect. Most ordinary arrows are hard to kill even if they are shot. Only the ballista is the real big killer. Each one can directly penetrate two lanes of three enemies.

Seeing the surging enemies, Vaughan drew the two-handed giant sword behind him and sang the barbarian's ancient war hymn to greet him. Before the murloc rushing forward even had time to react, he was cut off by a sharp magic weapon face. The guys who followed immediately were also killed one after another. In less than a minute, forty or fifty bodies fell on the beach. No one can rush past the orc warrior, the flaming "giant slayer" seems to warn all enemies not to act rashly.

Blood and killing accelerated the secretion of adrenaline, Vaughan felt his nerves start to get excited, after killing another enemy. He couldn't help but opened his mouth and let out a roar.

"what!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

After hearing this voice, Jacques Hoyas hiding in the back showed a solemn expression on his face. As a legendary warrior, he knew very well what this roar meant. There is a powerful fighter among the enemies, and he is about to break through the last threshold and enter the legend.

You know this is not good news. The legendary soldier is equivalent to a meat grinder in war, and one person can kill an army. They have steel-like muscles and bones, and they will not be tired for days and nights. If there is no opponent of the same level to contain, I am afraid that even if everyone is dead, there will be no way to achieve the goal.

Thinking of this, Jacques Hoyas creaked his teeth. To be honest, if he could, he didn't even think of going ashore. After all, it is one thing to let your hands take risks. Your own fate is another matter. Especially the last time the power of the legendary magic is still vivid, what if the enemy has similar means.

But the current situation is really bad. The murloc who rushed to the beach couldn't break through the line of defense, but were killed by the barbarians led by Vaughn back into the sea. Jacques Hoyas knew that this could not be continued, otherwise the whole line might collapse in a while. He took a deep breath and led the last elite to attack without hesitation.

Murloc wizards and priests began to chant spells one after another, spells were displayed one after another, the human soldiers on the city wall were beaten unprepared, and one after another wounded and fell to the ground. The number of arrows shot at a time was greatly reduced. Taking advantage of this opportunity, all the Sahua murlocs rushed to the shore, and by virtue of their number advantages, they pushed the barbarians back~www.ltnovel.com~Jacques Hoya S and Vaughn quickly found each other in a hand-to-hand encounter, and at the same time they collided fiercely. As the battle between the two became more and more intense, a vacuum was gradually vacated around the battlefield. Because they are all extremely powerful fighters, out of respect, no one will bother until the winner is determined.

Borken, who is far away in the Mage Tower, is paying close attention to the situation occupied, and ordered the Mage Tower to be prepared, ready to use the energy reserve for magical support at any time. At this moment, Debra suddenly broke in. As soon as she entered the door, she asked loudly: "Has the news been sent out?"

"Yes. Now that you have come back, hurry up and make preparations. I will now lead the wizard group to set off, and the control here will be handed over to you." Borken stood up and left. As an arcanist during the Netheril period, he was better than anyone at commanding the mage regiment.

A few minutes later, an airship full of wizards and warlocks began to slowly lift off, heading towards the battlefield. It can be said that this is the first large-scale intensive use of casters in Henry's territory. Although many levels are not high, it is not weak in terms of lethality with sufficient scroll reserves. (To be continued.
