"Over a million? There are so many troops in Nanshan City?"
Although Zhenhuang did not know the specific number of the total population of Nanshan City, he estimated that it was only a few million, and its army could not exceed 1 million.
Looking at other wars in the world in the past few years, any country with an army of more than one million is definitely a large country. Nanshan City is nothing more than a huge, impregnable city. No matter how huge it is, it is just a city after all, and there is no reason why its army should exceed one million.
If so, then these troops may not come from Nanshan City.
"What if there is no such army in Nanshan City, and these armies come from other places?" After Leng Jing thought about it, he increasingly felt that there was something wrong with those cities.
"Due to the long-term war, the land of Beiming has been sparsely populated. Except for Nanshan City, there are almost no living people." Zhenhuang asked doubtfully.
"Yes, even if there are some people who like to live in seclusion in the mountains, the number of these people is very small and they cannot constitute an army at all. What I am worried about is, will Wen Tianrui collude with foreigners?"
"Foreign race? Are the people in those fortified cities foreigners? Did your friend see anyone?"
"No, because each city has a barrier and cannot be approached. We can only roughly judge that humanoid creatures wearing armor are moving in the city."
"What kind of armor?"
"I also asked him this question, and he said it was an uncommon armor. It should be the armor from the north, a bit like the armor of the orcs."
"Wen Tianrui is colluding with the orcs? Is he crazy?"
"I'm not sure, I'm just guessing."
"Then this matter is a bit complicated. Aren't the Orcs an ally of the Yan Kingdom? Are they going south to invade Yanhuang? It's unlikely." Zhenhuang thought about it and felt that the Orcs going south was not very reliable.
"Yes, but what is it if it's not an orc?" Leng Jing scratched his head.
On the other side, at the junction of Beiming and the Kingdom of Snow, somewhere in the Great Wall of Ice that crisscrossed the mountains of ice and snow, a huge hole actually appeared.
There is a fully armed army walking through the cave. They are heading from the side of the Kingdom of Snow to the Land of Northern Darkness. Viewed from a high place, the army was endlessly long and numbered at least in the millions. The armor worn by these soldiers is relatively rare and is not the type commonly used by humans. In terms of craftsmanship, it looks very much like the armor of the Orcs. The soldiers' armor covered almost their whole bodies, and the people inside could not be seen at all. The most exaggerated thing is that their helmets are completely covered, and even their eyes cannot be seen. They don't look ahead through their eyes, but they can move forward accurately. It's as if they can see without looking through their eyes.
Most of these troops are infantry, and a small number are cavalry, but the horses they ride are also the same. They are fully armed and look like iron horses. The iron horse also has no eyes, as if it doesn't need them.
Wherever the iron hooves stepped, there were several human corpses. These corpses were partially covered with armor and had many mutilations on their bodies. It was obvious that they had been hacked to death with random knives.
It seemed that the human soldiers guarding this ice wall had already been attacked.
This unknown army is heading south, and their direction seems to be pointing to Nanshan City.
On the other side, near Nanshan City, in a certain city between the northwest mountains, a soldier came to a man wearing special armor and half-knelt down to him.
The armor style worn by this human being is very amazing. This is the armor often worn by the war god Xiaotian who died many years ago. Not only the armor, but also a Fangtian Painted Halberd in his hand. Regardless of his momentum or appearance, he gives people a feeling of roaring to the sky.
But Xiaotian died a long time ago, and he was burned to ashes, not even a bone or dregs was left. So could this person be Xiao Tian? If not, why would he pretend to be Xiao Tian. Could it be that he was once an acquaintance of Xiao Tian? Or someone who has a special connection with Xiao Tian.
The soldiers reported to "Xiao Tian": "General, your Majesty's troops have crossed the Great Wall of Ice. The four Dharma Kings have controlled the climate of Beiming. In the next three months, Beiming will enter the winter season. .”
"It seems that our vanguard troops cannot remain idle any longer. We will inform everyone
Fortress, set off immediately and head towards Nanshan City. "
"yes!"
Soon, drums for troops gathering sounded in the mountains, and soldiers poured out of countless large and small cities. At the same time, the snowflakes in the sky began to grow bigger, and the light snow gradually turned into heavy snow.
Although it is winter now, the overall temperature in the North Ming Land is still above zero degrees Celsius. Except for some light snow in some mountainous areas, there is no snow at all in other places. But now the snowflakes are getting heavier and the temperature is starting to plummet.
The number of soldiers constantly gathering was beyond imagination. Looking from the sky, all the valleys were crowded with soldiers. Under the leadership of various generals, they were walking out of the valleys and heading southeast.
If you continue along this route, you will reach Nanshan City in just five hours.
On the other side, the battle in Nanshan City has entered a white-hot stage. The so-called white-hot stage is a stage where casualties increase rapidly.
In the previous stage, although the fighting was fierce and various supernatural powers were displayed, the casualties were relatively low. After all, everyone was protected by armor. But now, the durability of most people's armor has begun to bottom out, and every sword swing causes real damage.
The ground of the battlefield was originally just sporadic blood stains, but now, it is really splattered with blood continuously, with some human limbs and even some heads attached to the left and right. Of course, in addition to red blood stains, there are also darker dark red blood stains, which mainly come from dark zombies.
Generally speaking, the combat power of Nanshan City's soldiers is comparable to that of the Dark Zombies, but the scary thing is that the Dark Zombies will transform injured soldiers into new zombies. Many soldiers find it difficult to attack their former compatriots, even though they have actually practiced this many times. But in actual combat, facing former teammates, it is really difficult to cut off their heads. Although there were many soldiers with high consciousness, with tears in their eyes and gritted teeth, they chopped off the heads of their compatriots. However, there are only a few soldiers with such high awareness, which leads to the gradual collapse of the war situation and even one-sidedness.
In the past several hours of fierce fighting, they were evenly matched with the enemy, but now the balance has been broken. The soldiers of Nanshan City are getting more and more frustrated as they fight, and their morale is gradually declining. If they are not careful, they will be bitten by the dark zombies.
At this time, drums and horns for retreat sounded in Nanshan City.
The signal to retreat really came at the right time. When the soldiers heard the signal, they immediately retreated while fighting. It must be said that Wen Tianrui is a man with strategic awareness, and he will not let soldiers make meaningless sacrifices.
The gates of Nanshan City gradually opened, and thousands of soldiers wearing red armor and holding red spears spread out in a semicircle formation. The so-called semicircle thorn is a group of particularly powerful soldiers holding high-damage weapons in a semicircle defensive formation.
After the soldiers retreated into the city, they would jump hard and jump over the semi-circle spike formation. But most of those dark zombies will not take off, but rush into the semicircle thorn formation. Because for zombies, all living people in front of them are prey, and it is their instinct to tear apart all living things in front of them. But little did they know that the attack power of the spear in front of them was extremely high, and it easily pierced their bodies and heads.
In this way, during the retreat of Nanshan City, large numbers of dark zombies that followed the city were pierced. The corpses of large numbers of dark zombies were blown out of the city gate by the wind powers prepared in advance.
When Feng Du saw this, he suddenly felt something bad, and immediately ordered the soldiers of the Ghost Army to rush into the city and try to find a way to break the semicircular stab array from behind. The earlier it is broken, the more likely it is to reduce the death rate of the dark zombies.
But just after the order was given, the giant gate of Nanshan City began to gradually lower.
Feng Du was a little confused. There were still about 100,000 Nanshan City soldiers outside the city. Should we start closing the city gate now?
According to the speed of closing the city, the city gate will be completely closed within one minute. Feng Du thought quickly. In one minute, only the ghost soldiers who were relatively close to the city gate could catch up and enter the city. The number could not exceed three thousand at most. In the buffer inner city full of enemies, these three thousand ghost soldiers will be outnumbered.
It seems that everything is just Wen Tianrui's strategy. First, the whole army attacks. When he feels that he is almost unable to fight, he immediately retreats. Then he introduces the dark zombies and ghost soldiers into the buffer inner city, and finally relies on their numerical advantage to eliminate them all. .
"Stop the pursuit, stop the pursuit immediately."
Feng Du urgently ordered to stop the pursuit. After the intelligent ghost soldiers heard the order, they had to suspend the pursuit. But wherever those dark zombies understand orders, they will rush wherever there is prey.
I saw zombies constantly rushing into the buffer inner city, and corpses constantly being blown out.
It seems that only when the city gate is completely closed can the dark zombies be prevented from dying.
But when the city gate was only two meters above the ground, the city gate paused and closed. The retreating soldiers and mindless zombies still rushed into the buffer inner city without any resistance. However, after the soldiers enter the city, they will jump across the semicircular stab array, but the dark zombies just sprint without thinking. Of course, some zombies will jump, but there are not many, and they will be quickly killed by the high-fighting soldiers who have prepared early.
"This Wen Tianrui is indeed not a fuel-saving lamp. The ghost army, continue to pursue, rush in with the dark zombies, and break the formation for me.".net
Feng Du changed his order again and planned to take risks. In fact, he knows that he is very passive now, because the city gate may drop again. If the ghost army can only enter a few thousand people, they will eventually be outnumbered. To break through that formation, it would take at least 10,000 ghost soldiers to break through.
Considering that there were still about 100,000 Nanshan City soldiers outside the city, Feng Du decided to take a gamble. He bet that Wen Tianrui couldn't completely close the city gate now, otherwise more than 100,000 soldiers would be unable to enter the city and it would be completely ruined.
Although the ghost soldiers were a little confused, after all, they received two different orders within one minute. But orders are orders, and they must be carried out. So they rushed into the buffer inner city again, intending to work hard to break the enemy's formation.
