Chapter 550
The rain washes over Fort Trakk, sending puffs of steam into the air.
The strongest castle built by Tasman humans, Trak's walls have stood in the rain for more than a hundred years. Because the drainage system and waterproof measures are in place, there has been no collapse of the city wall so far. But even so, in front of the undead army, no one dared to pat their chests and say that they would be able to defend.
The leader of the "Rebel Army" Kulka has been in a very bad mood recently. Because most of the soldiers under him have not been trained, they showed an extraordinary "retreat speed" when facing the undead. The city wall, which could be defended by gritting their teeth for a while, was stunned because many people were frightened and fled, and finally fell to Kulka. Later, they simply organized a very high proportion of supervisory teams to supervise the battle. Anyone who retreated was killed on the spot. Only slightly slowed down the rate of morale collapse.
He didn't know how to fight at first, but after fighting ducks for so long, he learned enough knowledge very quickly with a very flexible mind. Coordinating strategies and dispatching logistics, the large army of 50,000 people under his command is now considered to be coordinated and orderly.
However, under the pressing situation of the 20,000 undead army, no matter how powerful Kulka is, he can only retreat steadily.
Originally, Kulka could stay in the fortresses on the front line for a few more days, but Dasco suddenly sent a death order, asking him to pull all the people who can be mobilized to "Fort Trak" before today. Sko found a reinforcement that could determine the outcome in one shot.
Now that everything has been said here, Kulka has no reason not to cooperate. Today, after paying the price of more than 5,000 deaths, most of the main force has been kept in the castle. However, because the undead cut off the logistics line, the castles that did not stockpile food in advance could only survive for ten days.
In other words, if there is no winner in ten days, Kulka will either suffocate here, or he can only choose to break through.
"In this case, how many reinforcements will be useful?"
Kulka became increasingly impatient with Dasco's order in his heart. The opponent only commands a few thousand undead, how does it compare with myself who always dispatches an army of 50,000?
With a lot of power in his hands and no one to restrain him, Kulka's ambitions spread naturally. He fantasized more than once to replace Dasco as the supreme leader of the entire rebel army. But thinking of those necromancers, he can only forcefully suppress this impulse. Although there are "magicians" among the humans in the Tasman, the most powerful of these mages who are elusive in the "sheepfold" are no more advanced. Level 3 level is really not on the table.
"They are attacking, the city wall is ready to meet the enemy!"
Looking at the army of undead slowly approaching in the rain, Kulka felt that he had no hope of winning at all. Because the original 20,000 undead army has expanded to more than 60,000 undead creatures with the help of the opposing necromancer,
And as long as the main force is here for a day, the number of these undead creatures will only increase, not decrease.
The towering city walls were full of armed soldiers. In the rain, they had given up their arrows with no aim, and instead kept aiming their catapults at the approaching ladders in the distance.
The first batch of undead army overwhelmed more than 10,000 people. Among them, low-level cannon fodder zombies accounted for the vast majority, and they were obviously here to drain the defenders' stamina. Kulka is used to these routines of the undead, but the more he understands, the more uncertain he is...
Does Dasco's words make sense? If the reinforcements don't arrive in time, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to gather so many soldiers again...
"Let people watch around the city wall. If there is any change, please notify me immediately."
"Yes, Master Kulka!"
After the order was passed on, Kulka, who was standing at the highest point in the inner city, sighed, turned his head and looked at the crowded urban area that accommodated civilians behind him, waiting there with sad faces. Morale was extremely low after nearly 10,000 people died. Although the city was strong and had tall walls, the low center and high surrounding terrain made it difficult for them to break through.
Either defend until the enemy retreats, or grit their teeth and abandon most of the old and weak women and children to forcefully break through... Kulka pursed his lips and thought about his retreat, but Dasco's voice suddenly came from behind him:
"Success or failure depends on today."
Kulka frowned slightly, turned around and said, "But I don't see the possibility of success. So far, no reinforcements have appeared. Are we just waiting here to die?"
"Since today is agreed upon, it must be today."
Dasco shook his head, and didn't intend to explain anything. To be honest, he was also wondering what Rody was planning. If his people hadn't kept in touch with Rody these days and received affirmative answers, he would probably have done so today. Just as flustered as Kulka.
But when will reinforcements arrive? How much?
Roddy never disclosed this point, and Dasco could only reply in this way.
The two stood on the city wall and looked down. The mighty army of undead creatures was like black ants overwhelming the earth. They still used the simplest siege tactics of ants attaching to the city, using skeleton soldiers as the main force to climb the city wall by ladders .
The soldiers defending the city fought back fiercely, and the broken skeletons fell to the dust like dumplings, but the dark army never retreated. Even with the nearly 20-meter city wall defending, more and more skeleton soldiers still gradually climbed to the battlement wall...
"Infantry squad! Solve the trouble on the city wall!"
The melee troops have already begun to fight the fire back and forth on the city wall, but the attack of the undead army is more violent than expected... From the morning to the afternoon, the attack intensity is getting higher and higher!
When the sixth batch of undead army came like a tide, Kulka finally couldn't stand still...
"They are planning to make a quick decision! Those necromancers overdraw their mana and desperately summon undead creatures to attack. Look at the number of skeleton soldiers in this wave. The total force they have invested has exceeded 80,000! We can't stand it if this continues! "
"Do you think the 'awakened' didn't pay?"
Dasco pointed to the distance, and the undead troops accumulated by Takris and others attacked the siege troops directly from the rear. The "charged lance" held by those undead knights instantly blew up more than a thousand skeleton infantry. After rushing all the way, the pressure on the city wall was immediately relieved.
But this kind of charge can only be done twice. The "charged lance" will be completely useless after the spar is used up. Without the spar, it can only be used as an ordinary lance. So after another batch of skeletons surged up, all the efforts just now became useless efforts of "stopping the boiling water"...
Both Kulka and Dasco fell silent at this time. The two obviously had no cards, and now the only hope could only be pinned on the "reinforcement" promised by Roddy.
"It's all a trap!"
After a hole in the city wall was finally breached, Kulka couldn't help cursing, wanting to blame Dasco, but realized that it was meaningless, so he could only stare at the undead in front of him, hoping that he could Give an argument.
Before Dasco could reply, both of them heard the low roar from the horizon...
The continuous, continuous sound sounded like thunder, but there was no lightning around. In the drizzle that never stopped, the muffled sound of "boom boom boom" lasted for more than a minute before gradually disappearing.
"What's this?"
*****
"Is that what you're aiming for? But I don't see any hope of this castle being able to resist success unless we let us do it."
Standing beside Roddy, Kardashian suddenly turned to stare at him with her beautiful eyes, and suddenly said, "You cunning human being, you are here to trick us, right?"
It's strange to say that the dragon family is arrogant, but once you feel that you are "reliable", you will no longer have that kind of domineering oppression when you speak, but will show a comfortable disposition. This kind of situation is also reflected in Merlin Serra. What Rody didn't expect was that Kardashian's behavior was more obvious when she asked questions like this, in fact, she regarded him as a friend.
Luo Di smiled wryly in his heart, lamenting why this bitch is so stupid.
"It was agreed before that I would bring the three gentlemen to watch a good show. If I let you do it, what else is there to see?"
He shrugged innocently, but what he said made Kardashian very useful. She looked around and felt that the halfway up the mountain was really desolate, and it was boring to wait, so she walked back and forth a few steps impatiently. Seeing this, Rody quickly winked at Melinsera who was standing beside him. Although the latter was upset, he obediently cast spells to condense the surrounding dead branches into three large armchairs.
"It will be ready soon. Please wait a moment, your Excellencies."
Roddy's meticulous care made Kardashian more pleasing to Roddy's eyes. She waved her hand and said, "You really have a lot of ghosts. If I have a mission to go to Karen Kingdom, I really have to go to your city Sit down. To be honest, no other human being I've met can be as agile as you."
Kardashian said this because she heard Roddy yesterday and saw the trap against Augustine. She and Iskar both had a consensus: Although the human being in front of him was not strong, he was really incomparable to young dragons like them in digging traps.
The meticulous logic and plan made the three dragons finally agree after several discussions. That's why they were willing to spend time watching Rody's so-called "Destroy the Undead Army" plan. If they didn't trust Rody, where would they fly there? Central Tasman?
This place is facing Fort Tractor in the distance, about ten kilometers away. Because of the rain, the huge castle was faintly visible in the field of vision. From this angle, one could see from the side that the densely packed undead army was launching a general attack.
Rody had already asked Merlinsera to send a signal to the surrounding mountains, and after waiting for half a minute, a violent explosion and a series of vibrations finally came as expected, which made several dragons stand up in surprise!
"Explosion? No...it's the fluctuation of the magic circle..."
Kardashian's magic detection instantly locked on five mountains around. With her strength, she knew what happened without naked eyes. However, because of this, the dragon suddenly widened his eyes: "Are you going to... How can this be!?"
Iscar had already guessed what Rody was going to do. Although he tried his best to control his emotions, he still couldn't help but say: "Your skill...is really not small."
Only the crystal dragon Essien remained silent, but his eyes slowly focused on Roddy. Obviously, this seemingly inconspicuous human... finally had something worthy of his attention.
