Edge of the Apocalypse

Three Hundred and Fifty First Chapter Stalemate

It was night, and in the camp of the city defense team, gunshots from inside and outside the guard wall could be heard clearly from time to time. Storm City's cavalry squad harassed them from time to time, so that the soldiers of the city defense team could not relax for a moment. Only those flame warriors, they just held their guns and closed their eyes and fell asleep in the shooting position, so as to recover their mental and physical strength. These warriors, drawn from Bethkind's family guard, are seasoned veterans who know when to take a break.

Admittedly, it is possible for the enemy to use the cover of darkness for a sneak attack. But as long as you keep a few key positions, you don't need to worry. The heightened guard wall makes it difficult for the enemy to attack. It's just that the soldiers in Suer City haven't fought any battles, and there are still many recruits among them, so the experience is naturally not as rich as the flame warriors.

In the camp office, Roy leaned on a chair and closed his eyes to rest. Lucy stood at the window and said softly: "Bermod has been away for so long, will nothing happen?"

"Don't worry, miss. I know that guy very well. The dark night is his stage. I'm worried that he will get caught up in hunting and miss a big deal." Roy opened his eyes and said.

"Am I like the kind of person who doesn't care about the importance?" A person suddenly sneaked into the office, and Belmode snorted: "The things you want are here, let's take a look."

He took something out of his jacket pocket and spread it on the table, but it was a scribbled map. But it can be seen that it is the barracks of Storm City. Belmode was doing reconnaissance work, and drew this sketch based on his observations. The map clearly marked the camp's main tent, barracks, stables, and material storage points, which showed that Belmode had put a lot of thought into it.

"Our troops are much weaker than the opponent's, and the ammunition of the fire rifles is almost exhausted. If we follow the normal way of fighting, the enemy only needs two or three rounds of attacks like the daytime, and we have to prepare to break through the city. "Roy's fingers kept swimming on the map of the camp in Storm City, and the fingertips stayed the longest between the main tent and the material storage point.

Finally, he stopped. Roy tapped hard on the material location and said: "Their supplies must be destroyed. Without supplies, they will not be able to fight a protracted war. The daily consumption of an army of thousands of people is not a joke. Just drag one or two God, they have no choice but to retreat without supplies."

"I don't think they will easily let us burn the supply point. Miss Adele is not here, so I can't just send them a fire bomb from a long distance like last time." Belmode said: "No Roughly speaking, Roy. I have already checked, and their defenses are very tight. Especially the main account and supply points, they should be marked on the map."

"I know, so it's just difficult to distract them with a feint."

Lucy frowned and said, "I already used this trick to blow up their shelling positions in the morning. No matter how stupid the other commander is, he wouldn't be fooled twice in a row, right?"

Roy laughed and said, "Of course.

But in the morning we fought on two fronts, and tonight we fought on three or even four fronts. Fiction and reality are interspersed, and the use of troops is only deceitful. "

Turning to Bloy and shouting, "Get up and work, brother."

The highlander grabbed the heavy hammer and exhaled a scorching air from his chest: "I've been waiting for your words for a long time."

Roy quickly arranged four teams, the first two of which were responsible for harassment. The target of the third team is the supply point, and the fourth team will provide cover and act as a surprise soldier when necessary. It is conceivable that the false actions of these four teams must have given Mogu a headache. Just when they were about to leave, a soldier informed Roy to go to the guard wall.

When they came to the guard wall, they could see through the night, the barracks in Storm City were ablaze, and the other party seemed to be fighting someone. Roy narrowed his eyes, and Belmode next to him said, "Could it be a trap, pretending to create chaos to lure us out of the city?"

"It's hard to say." Roy didn't dare to jump to conclusions lightly.

At this time, there was a neighing sound from the wilderness, and under the light of the fire, something quickly rushed into the camp, and sparks flew everywhere. Lucy used the sight of a sniper rifle as a telescope, and from the sight, many camps in Storm City were on fire. The soldiers were fighting with some wild beasts, and snakes were the most visible in the firelight. Various types of snakes, among which the two giant pythons with thick buckets are the most conspicuous, they rampage, rolling up soldiers and throwing them into the flames from time to time.

In addition to snakes, there are also wild boars with fangs, and some beasts like ligers. The leader was a big snake covered with black and white scales, with a bone crown on its head, and a golden horn that was extremely eye-catching under the firelight. The big snake swam like flying, bent its neck from time to time and grew violently, knocking the besieging thunder knights into the air with its bone crown and single horn, unable to form an effective formation.

What's more, from time to time, flames would flow through the snake scales all over its body, and then the big snake opened its mouth and spit out a fire dragon. The snake head shook its head, and the fire waves flew, burning everything in the camp. In the flames, the snake seemed to sense something and looked in the direction of the sight. Those pale golden snake eyes made Lucy feel very familiar. Suddenly remembered that the pair of snake pupils were almost identical to Bai.

"It's Bai!" Lucy pointed at the big snake: "That's Bai, the snake raised by Allen!"

Roy was taken aback, and Belmode lost his voice: "When did that thing grow so big?"

"That snake is not an ordinary snake, it is the Dark King Snake. Bai should have evolved, hey, this guy is here to help." Lucy said.

Roy nodded and said, "Okay, let's take this opportunity to dispatch."

Mogu absolutely never thought that tonight would turn into the current situation. According to his original plan, he used cavalry squads to harass the opponent's city defense continuously. At the same time, let the main force rest and recharge their spirits. They will launch a raid in the wee hours of the morning, making sure to take the city by one blow. Everything was going according to plan, but suddenly a large number of ferocious beasts appeared from the wilderness behind the military camp, and they suddenly attacked the camp, making Mogu's arrangement into a mess.

Especially one of the big one-horned snakes, this strange beast has thick scales, and there is no trace of fire/gun on it. Only a captain-level sword infused with source power could hurt it. The giant snake was so explosive that it could even spew out flames, causing serious losses to Mogu.

However, misfortunes never come singly. When the barracks was in a hurry for the sudden beast horde, the enemy took the opportunity to launch an attack. They first dispatched two teams to attack head-on, and when Mo Gu divided his forces to intercept, the third team suddenly appeared from the night. Fortunately, Storm City finally has the advantage of having a large number of people, so it won't be a mess for Suer City's surprise soldiers.

But Mogu didn't expect that this third team was still a false move, even though this team was composed of the flame fighters that Mogu feared the most. When Mogu thought he could hold back the attack of Sur City, the fourth team led by Lucy quietly attacked the material storage point, which was a big surprise to Mogu. After seeing the power of the flame warriors during the day, when these warriors appeared tonight, Mogu focused on them. Unexpectedly, the Flame Warriors acted as bait this time, making him unguarded against the fourth team.

Soon, some of Lucy's grenades/mines were blown up at the supply point. When Mo Gu arrived, the soldiers were fighting the fire, but the supplies they had brought had already been ten to seven, and the remaining food was not even enough for tomorrow's breakfast. At this moment, Mogu realized that a large number of people is sometimes a burden.

At dawn, the white collar led the herd back. Mogu took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on Sur City. This attack was more tragic than yesterday. From the powerful offensive of Storm City, Roy could feel Mogu's anger. The city of Sur defended with all its strength, and even the residents of the city were mobilized this time. After a bitter battle, Storm City returned without success, but the defense wall of Sur City was also in jeopardy.

Several sections of the guard wall collapsed under the enemy's fierce offensive. Although emergency repairs are being carried out right now, Storm City's next attack will definitely use this as a breakthrough point to expand the results of the battle.

Returning to the camp, Mogu let the soldiers rest and at the same time sent the Thunder Knight to return to Storm City to ask for material support. Roy expected that Mogu would make such a move, so he arranged for Belmode to intercept it. However, Mo Gu had a better mind this time. He sent out five or six cavalry in succession, and set off according to different routes. After all, Suer City couldn't allocate enough manpower. Even with a master like Belmode holding the formation, it still allowed a Thunder Knight to cross the blockade.

Over the next few days, the Storm City offensive slowed down. While Mogu continued to attack the city of Sur, he had to send some soldiers into the wilderness and forest in order to hunt wild animals to satisfy his hunger. However, doing so led to attacks from Bai and other beasts. After leaving behind dozens of corpses, the hunting party returned to the camp with not enough food for a single meal.

For this reason, the soldiers of Storm City had to tighten their belts.

The balance of the battle situation is slowly tilting, and now Mogu can only hope for material support from Storm City. If he can't wait for support, he can only choose to retreat.

When the battle situation gradually entered a stalemate, a team passed through the wind-eroded canyon and headed towards the city of Sur. Allen was riding on the horse, recalling that when he passed the exit of the canyon just now, the original stronghold in Storm City was empty.

This is very unusual, originally he thought that when passing through the stronghold, there would be a little friction. But now, Storm City seems to have withdrawn this stronghold. What's going on here?

While thinking about the possibility, the sound of horseshoes sounded in his ears. Allen looked up, and Regis was galloping towards him. This guy couldn't bear the loneliness of the journey, and he always left the team from time to time and galloped wildly. Allen was also happy to let him be a scout. Seeing that he ran back not long after he left, he felt that things were not that simple.

Sure enough, Regis came to Alan's side, pointed his hand forward and said, "Guess what I found over there?"

"A team, the team of Storm City." r1058
