Chapter 1418: Attack the City at Night
Chapter 1418: Attack the City at Night
Accompanied by the loud sound of trumpets, the Subia Demon Kingdom army, which had completed its deployment, began to advance, officially starting the prelude to the attack on the black market fortress.
The military drums were also beating loudly, as if they were trying to make up for the lack of morale in this way.
Yes, as the attacking party, the morale of the Subia Demon Kingdom army was seriously low.
Back then in Kaimen City, more than a hundred thousand soldiers of the Subia Demon Kingdom were frightened out of their wits, and many of them subsequently suffered from serious mental illnesses and were no longer elite soldiers who could go to the battlefield.
This tragic situation had only been going on for less than two years, and even if new soldiers were recruited, they would have definitely heard the horrific legend that to be an enemy of Viola was to be an enemy of the Devil God.
It can be clearly said that the soldiers do not want to fight and dare not fight, so it would be strange if their morale was high.
In addition, the Subia Demon Kingdom's army marched all the way here and did not set up camp near the fortress to rest. No matter how slow the marching speed was, the march itself would consume the soldiers' mental and physical strength. There was no time to rest and they attacked the city overnight. Even an army with morale would become weak, not to mention an army with low morale.
On the other hand, Viola's morale is motivated by the war of revenge, and she has a priest of the Demon King Cult acting as the political commissar, so her fighting spirit is not a problem at all.
After more than a month of rest and waiting for the enemy to tire, the soldiers are almost gaining weight and no longer suffer from lack of physical strength.
What's more, we have fortresses to defend and a larger army.
The enemy is obviously weak and I am strong, it feels like there is no chance of winning.
But the Subia Demon Kingdom army still attacked, which is indeed very puzzling.
Li Chengxi sat back in front of the computer after dinner and of course saw this scene. If it was an encounter situation, the Subia Demon Kingdom army might use the natural environment and surprise attacks to threaten a stronger army than itself, then in this kind of siege situation, it would be basically impossible to win.
A great man once said that there is no such thing as the weak defeating the strong, it is always the strong defeating the weak, and the key is whether the overall strength is or the local strength is.
However, whether from an overall or local perspective, the Subia Demon Kingdom Army has no advantages.
So Li Chengxi was also a little confused.
But he just thought about it for a moment and then his mind went blank.
It doesn't matter, I will take action.
No matter what secret weapons the Subia Demon Kingdom’s army has hidden, they will be doomed as long as Li Chengxi takes action.
Or to put it more simply, just rain down fire, and these demoralized soldiers of the Subia Demon Kingdom will most likely turn around and run away.
I didn't do that because Aidas once said that it's best not to interfere too much in the mortal world. Although there is no actual evidence to prove the existence of the 'Mortal Curse', it's better to believe it than not. What if?
Li Chengxi also decided to limit the intensity of interference to the extent that a saint could descend, and try not to be too strong.
So when he saw the Subia Demon Kingdom's army advancing, he just watched for the time being and did not take any action.
But he can watch the show, and Viola and her army still have to cheer up.
No matter how great the advantage is, people will die in war. If you don't want to become one of the corpses, you have to be extremely careful.
The Subia Demon Kingdom's army advanced step by step to the sound of drumbeats, until the distance was close enough that one could see every line on the soldiers' shields with the naked eye.
At this moment, a very loud horn sounded from Blackrock Fortress.
This special large silver horn requires a bellows to produce sound, and its resonant sound instantly drowned out the military drums of the Subia Demon Kingdom's army, representing a signal.
Go to war.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Arrows flew like raindrops, whether from the fortress to the outside of the city or from the outside of the city to the fortress, before the two sides came into close combat, there must have been rounds of arrow rain. The army of the Subia Demon Kingdom came directly from the country to the Black Stone Fortress. In order to conceal their whereabouts on the way, they did not receive any supplies. The number of arrows they carried was obviously not comparable to that of Viola, who had been waiting in the Black Stone Fortress for more than a month.
After three rounds of arrow rain, it was obvious that the archers of the Subia Demon Kingdom army began to be cautious, while Viola's archers were still drawing their bows as if arrows were free.
The supplies stockpiled in Blackrock Fortress were enough for the archers to use up even if they broke their arms, so this battle was fought with great success.
However, with the help of three rounds of arrow rain, the Subia Demon Kingdom army successfully managed to get many soldiers to the bottom of the fortress. They began to use ladders with hooks to try to attack the city.
A large number of logs and boulders were thrown down from the city wall. Fortunately, Viola didn't know what gold juice was, otherwise the scene below the city wall would have been even more unbearable to look at.
As I said earlier, the army of the Subia Demon Kingdom has a serious lack of morale. Being able to rush to the city wall and shout a few times is already worthy of the salary paid by His Majesty the Demon King.
You want me to attack the city?
Is this true? Am I going?
The boulders and wooden beams thrown down broke the ladders and destroyed the soldiers' morale, which was already small. The soldiers began to flee soon after the battle began.
Even before the siege tower built by the Subia Demon Kingdom’s army was pushed over, some people wanted to retreat.
However, the supervision team did a good job, and the soldiers could only do their job reluctantly and try harder.
It is obviously unrealistic to rely on the supervision team to push people up. In fact, when the supervision team plays a role, the army is no longer effective.
As the commander, Isaac certainly saw all of this very clearly.
"General, the battering ram has been hit hard, and the front line can no longer advance."
The staff officer's words were actually very tactful. It was not a question of whether the battering ram could reach the city gate, but that the soldiers had no morale at all.
Isaac is young, which is an advantage, but in the army, a young commander means he lacks experience and is difficult to convince.
A big part of the reason for the escape from Avarus was the death of Isaac's grandfather, the Tiger of the Kingdom. If he were still alive, even if the soldiers were defeated and had to retreat, they would not have been defeated like fleeing.
Isaac did not have enough ability and prestige to control the orderly retreat of the army at that time, and he now had no ability to restore the morale of the demoralized army.
To the soldiers and even the staff, Isaac was just a speculator who had chosen his side in the coup. Despite his grandfather's reputation, he was not that great.
"I understand."
The staff officer only got this answer, and it was hard to tell whether Isaac had figured out the situation.
For the soldiers and staff, going abroad to fight was not what they expected. With the current state of the Subia Demon Kingdom, being able to resist the attack from the Guatni Demon Kingdom in the south was already the limit. Deliberately allocating troops to help the Tandron Demon Kingdom was a bad move in itself.
The staff officer looked at Isaac, sighed, and said nothing more.
Isaac has changed a lot during this period of time. As a former adviser to the Tiger of the Kingdom, it is no longer possible to understand what Isaac is thinking now.
He never discussed strategies with his staff and often whispered with a group of secretive guys. The passionate young man before seemed to have died suddenly. Now Isaac was gloomy and silent, with a chilling temperament.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the staff officer heard Isaac say:
"It's time to let the ambush troops take action."
The staff officer didn't think the so-called ambush would be of much use, but he obeyed the order.
"As you command, your will."
At that moment, the staff officer seemed to see a shadow hovering over Isaac. Perhaps the god of death was ready to take him away.
