Chapter 1339 Blackstone Fortress (Part )

"How long has it been since the surrender notice was issued?"

"It has been six hours, Your Majesty."

The guard knight beside her answered. Viola nodded slightly and then looked down at the sand table.

With the help of Oldie, Viola's army defeated the blizzard, and Li Chengxi also used a magnifying glass to focus light and burn through the thick snow along the way.

This allowed Viola's troops to reach the next key fortress only a few days behind schedule.

It was a huge fortress built on a hillside with its back against a cliff.

The Blackstone Fortress is the most important fortress on the northwestern border of the Demon Kingdom of Tandron.

Going south from this fortress, you will reach the capital of the Demon Kingdom of Tandelon. Going west is the Demon Kingdom of Subia. Going north is the southern gate of Avarus, the Kaimen City.

As long as we take this place, the first phase of the strategic mission will be declared over. The next step will be to cooperate with the Guatni Demon Kingdom to attack the Subia Demon Kingdom and completely divide up this once most brutal invader on the land of Avarus.

Blackstone Fortress must be taken. Not only will it ensure the capture of the land currently seized, but also supplies can be transported directly from Kaimen City instead of taking a big detour, greatly alleviating logistical pressure.

But this fortress was unexpectedly difficult to conquer.

Since declaring war on the Demon Kingdom of Tandron, Viola and her army have almost traveled all the way here, and there have been very few fierce head-on battles.

On the one hand, the Tandron Demon Kingdom needs to reduce its military strength in order to deal with the more threatening Osveya and Lakshuriya. On the other hand, the Tandron Demon Kingdom is extremely afraid of the Demon King God.

Viola started this war in the name of holy war and revenge, and her actions were tacitly approved by the Demon God, which means that Viola's actions were the will of the Demon God.

No one dared to resist the tyrant's will.

Often, after receiving the letter of surrender, the frightened defenders would only hold out for a few hours at most before sending someone to tell Viola that they needed to discuss a retreat plan and asked her to wait a little longer.

In short, don't be impatient and don't hit us. We need to discuss how to leave in a dignified manner.

So Viola took over many important fortress cities almost without any damage along the way.

The Blackstone Fortress, a real military fortress, is not very important to the current Demon Kingdom of Tandron. Instead of getting entangled with Viola, it is better to transfer the troops back to defend the capital.

But now, six hours have passed and there has been no response from the other side. Instead, the scouts saw that the defenses on the city wall were being deployed in full swing, with an attitude of "if you dare to attack, I will stand my ground to the end."

What is the reason that makes the Tandron Demon Kingdom so strong?
Viola knew without much thought that it must be the Subia Demon Kingdom that sent troops.

We received news earlier that the Subia Demon Kingdom has already sent out troops, but they have not yet arrived at the Black Stone Fortress.

The army of the Tandron Demon Kingdom may have received a death order, requiring them to hold their ground until reinforcements from the Subia Demon Kingdom arrive. According to the scouts' report, the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom should arrive in about a month.

Normally, it is not a problem for Blackstone Fortress to hold out for a month, but this is not a normal situation. Is the army of the Tandron Demon Kingdom so confident that it can withstand the might of the Demon King?
"Take out the mines that the Lord has given you and fire two first."

"As ordered."

Blackstone Fortress is also very important to Viola, so it would be best to capture it, especially if it is intact.

There are still a few machine guns that Li Chengxi gave her before. This thing is too powerful. Two shots are fired as a warning. Viola doesn't want a Blackstone Fortress with its walls collapsed.

Because at the current speed, the Subia Demon Kingdom army is on the way, and Viola doesn't want to fight a battle with those guys at all. Before that, taking over the Black Stone Fortress and relying on the fortress to defend is the best option to defeat the Subia Demon Kingdom army. –-——-

Things often go in the wrong direction. The more you worry about something, the more likely it is to happen.

Two mines were thrown out with a catapult, and with a deafening noise, a tall tower in the fortress with a catapult installed on top was forcibly demolished.

The defenders in Blackstone Fortress were indeed panicked for a while, but Viola did not wait for the other side to send a letter of surrender, and did not even intend to discuss surrender, and continued to arrange defenses on the city wall.

This is a typical case of giving up the favor. In this case, Viola doesn't plan to wait any longer.

The hand-cranked blower spun frantically, sending air continuously into the huge horn on the carriage. The low-pitched attack orders soon became deafening along with the heavy footsteps of the soldiers.

Every beat of the military drum seemed to hit people's hearts, and several tall siege towers began to be pushed closer to the city wall.

Counterattack rockets were fired one after another, but they were not enough to ignite the siege towers that were covered with a thick layer of mud.

The Avarus soldiers fired arrows and crossbows at the city walls, and the catapults made a terrible whistle, throwing huge boulders into the fortress. Some of the boulders were wrapped in a layer of "stinky oil" and linen produced in the Leon territory. The flames that were still burning after landing would ignite the hay or wooden buildings.

Following the siege tower, the soldiers rushed forward, raising their shields and trying to pass through the killing zone under the city wall.

This war is inevitable. Since they are unwilling to surrender, we have no choice but to fight hard.

"The pace of the advance is slower than expected. Send the reserve troops up."

Viola's vanguard was composed of a small number of veterans and a large number of new recruits, the latter of which lagged behind.

These recruits had never participated in Avarus's war of restoration, and many of them had never been on the battlefield. Viola's ease along the way gave them a wrong understanding of war.

As a result, when the resistance of Blackrock Fortress became stronger, the recruits naturally retreated.

This is a foreseeable situation. Viola's reserve team is the real veterans who are responsible for helping these new recruits.

"Isn't it my turn yet?"

Next to Viola, Oldie, holding her staff, interrupted:
"My meteor burst can bomb the city walls."

Everyone was busy during this period, including Oldie.

She jumped from level 45 to level 48. If she is given a few years, breaking through to level 50 is almost certain.

"When our soldiers rush to the bottom of the city wall, it will be the time for the magician troops to take action. Suppressing fire now will make them aim at you."

The biggest feature of Meteor Explosion is its extremely long range, but it is still within the coverage of the rain of arrows.

So now is not the time for Olde and the mages to take action.

At this moment, a loud buzzing sound echoed from the top of the sky, as if it was falling down.

Viola looked up and saw a huge drone in the shape of an aircraft carrier breaking through the clouds and trying to land in the Blackstone Fortress.

Li Chengxi still took action.
