At a glance, it was thousands of high-level magicians and high-level flying magical beasts of the Holy Dragon Empire fighting desperately in the sky.
The mid-level mages were responsible for maintaining the city's barrier to prevent unimpeded bombardment by Warcraft's mid-level long-range troops, while also supporting the weak points of the city walls on all four sides. The result was that the Holy Dragon Empire was completely vulnerable in terms of long-range attacks.
In short, if you look down from the sky, the area within a few kilometers of this plain city is filled with flying magic bullets, screams, shouts, and roars of beasts that shake the sky and the earth.
After being suppressed by the "firepower" of Warcraft, the cannon fodder-level siege army of Warcraft can easily reach the bottom of the city wall, and directly climb up the city or rush to the top of the city on the corpses of their companions.
Besides, Lao Zheng and others were originally resting in a tent somewhere in the Chengwai camp. However, the Holy Dragon Empire lost the war and had to abandon several lines of defense outside the city and retreat into the city, relying on the city walls and the defensive magic circles inside the city to defend the city.
Originally, after entering the city, Lao Zheng and others would only be placed under house arrest in another place. However, as the war situation became worse, before dawn, the Holy Dragon Empire was faced with the dilemma of too many casualties and a shortage of manpower.
In desperation, the top brass of the army issued an order for general mobilization, sending any personnel who could be used in the battle to the top of the city to support or rotate with the regular army.
After all, this army is made up of mortals. No matter how elite and powerful they are, they will eventually become exhausted. If there are not enough people to replace them, once the main force collapses from exhaustion after fighting all night, this city with a population of hundreds of thousands will surely be destroyed.
Therefore, at the request of the squad leader, Lao Zheng and others had to follow the private soldiers, mercenaries in the city and the second-line city defense forces to the city wall to buy more rest time for the main elite troops on the front line.
This is how the current scene came about.
Back to the topic, when Lao Zheng and others were planning to climb up the inner wall again and fight the low-level monsters that were pouring onto the city wall again, the captain of the armored squad also came with thousands of front-line main forces who had just had a short rest to take over.
"Foreign envoy, you did a great job! But you only have one hour to rest, so take the time to catch your breath! Also, good news, reinforcements will arrive at the outskirts of the beast tide in three hours."
After the team leader finished speaking, he took several strong men to quickly clean up the monsters that climbed the city, and reorganized a relatively stable city defense line.
At the same time, the mention of the imminent arrival of reinforcements also boosted the morale of all the people present.
Lao Zheng and others did not evacuate the city wall directly, mainly because the city wall was five meters wide and there was a rest platform. As long as the number of defending troops was not too outrageous, they did not need to go down the city wall to rest.
When they retreated to rest, Lao Zheng whispered to Chu Xuan, "We are running out of ammunition. The only thing worth mentioning is that Li Yan and Wang Chengfu were only seriously injured. We didn't lose any personnel. But the next wave is uncertain, even with reinforcements."
Although Lao Zheng's voice was low, Rene Liu and the others were gathered very close, so of course they understood.
The situation is still not optimistic for them. After all, in their understanding, it will take time for reinforcements to come to the rescue, and how to protect themselves in this process is still the biggest problem.
Especially as the ammunition ran out, it was even more difficult for Reincarnations like Liu Ruhua, who already had average physical fitness, to survive on the front line of the battlefield.
"Just hold on a little longer, maybe our supplies will arrive soon." Chu Xuan said as he rubbed his aching head.
Lao Zheng, Liu Ruhua, Wu Lan, Chen Wenfeng and others all looked over in confusion.
"Ms. Bai likes to join in the fun."
Chu Xuan added this sentence and closed his eyes to rest.
But just with this one sentence, Lao Zheng and others couldn't help but smile after being stunned for a moment.
Everyone knows that Xiaobai likes to join in the fun, and Qin Bin is very indulgent and doting on Xiaobai and the others, which is also obvious to everyone. In other words, this grand occasion will definitely attract Qin Bin and others to come and join in the fun!
At this moment, Lao Zheng and others suddenly heard someone exclaim.
"Oh no! The flying monsters are moving! Prepare for air attack!"
"Air cavalry take off immediately!"
"Prepare the anti-aircraft city defense magic cannon!"
"The reserve mage troops are moving forward in full force!"
"quick!!"
Various heralds and roars were heard from the main city tower. Lao Zheng and others suddenly looked towards the distant sky, only to see countless flying monsters swooping down towards the fortress city from all directions, like huge dark clouds.
At the same time, the offensive power of the low- and middle-level monsters on the ground suddenly increased by several levels. For a moment, the defense line built on the fortress walls became shaky.
Just as Lao Zheng and the others were stunned, Chu Xuan got up from the ground with difficulty and said, "It seems that the instigator of the beast tide is not interested in surrounding and attacking the reinforcements, or the reinforcements of the Holy Dragon Empire are too powerful to make the beast tide unable to use the strategy of surrounding and attacking the reinforcements... But no matter what, the critical moment has arrived..."
"Colonel Chu, what should we do now?" Liu Ruohua asked in a panic.
Chu Xuan shook his head and after he sobered up a little, he said, "Fight with all your strength and pray that Mr. Qin and the others will come soon, or maybe the Holy Dragon Empire has a backup plan."
"..."
Lao Zheng and others looked at each other, but had no choice but to grit their teeth and prepare to fight at any time.
At this time, on the platform on the main tower of the fortress gate.
The female general sat expressionlessly on a chair decorated with luxurious accessories, with both hands on the sword propped up on the ground in front of her, staring at the countless flying monsters approaching rapidly in the distance.
Except for the two personal guards and the gray-robed young man around her, the rest of the elite troops all went to the city wall defense line.
She glanced at the gray-robed young man with a pale face and a look of fear, and said with a little disdain, "The descendants of Memphis are just this kind of stuff, it's really disappointing."
"——!" The gray-robed young man was angry, but his expression changed in an instant, and he quickly said, "Princess, the situation is not good now, maybe we can evacuate first? I still have two space transfer scrolls here, I wonder..."
"Retreat?" The female general smiled. "The magic elements are rampaging nearby. Your space transfer scrolls won't work. Don't even think about taking my holy scroll. I don't have that thing with me."
Chapter 431: Passively Involved in the Dispute - Part
"......" The gray-robed young man's expression froze.
The female general then said, "Lian, do you know how to fish?"
"It's already this time, why are you talking about this?" The gray-robed young man Ryan was so angry that he could no longer maintain the false mask.
The female general remained calm, "Fishing requires good bait, as well as sufficient patience and good luck to get something."
"what do you want to say in the end!?"
"I just want to tell you that there are idiots in the Holy Dragon Empire, but not many. What the Memphis family can promise, our Sophia Royal Family can also give, and give more and better."
"?!!"
The female general continued, "In the past ten years, my father has been old and incompetent, my eldest brother died tragically due to slander, and my second brother has left without a trace. The military and political affairs of the empire are all corrupt, which has given many ambitious people the opportunity to act rashly. Although the Memphis family is ambitious, they are more famous than real and lack military power, so they are not difficult to deal with. The real trouble is Grand Duke Noru who controls the northern border.
Do you really think that his ambition to ally with the Northern Barbarians and the Memphis clan to carve up the Holy Dragon Empire is deeply hidden? "
"..."
"You rationally transferred several major forces away from the imperial capital, and reorganized the army outside the court as little as possible to avoid attracting attention, while allowing us to rationally suppress the rebellion. This beast tide that seemed to be out of control was not bad.
The latest news is that Grand Duke Noru has killed the military supervisor and officially led his army south."
"You, you know everything?" The gray-robed young man looked at the female general in disbelief.
"So, there are idiots in the Empire, but they are really not many."
"...You, what are you going to do? Now the main forces of the imperial capital are gathering in the south, the northern part of the empire is empty, and Grand Duke Noru is waiting for an opportunity to march south with a million coalition troops. The Millennium Empire will end here! You better be realistic, Sina Sofia!"
The female general, Xina, smiled instead, "According to your plan, it is indeed the case. But, who told you that the main force of the empire is heading south?"
"?!" The pupils of the gray-robed young man Ryan shrank. "Did you secretly transfer the main force to the north?! Are you crazy?! Are you planning to let the beast tide sweep across the southern part of the empire?!"
"We are not crazy, you are just blinded by appearances."
"Appearance, appearance... What do you mean?! Is there any foreign aid? Impossible! In recent years, more than a dozen vassal states and neighboring countries of the Holy Dragon Empire have been in war, and they can't spare much troops to support... The elves... The elves can't do that either. The elves and orcs are about to go to war, so how could they risk supporting the human kingdom with which they have an average relationship..."
"You are right, but you missed one thing."
"Leaked? What?"
General Xina raised her lips, "The Holy Dragon Empire is called the Holy Dragon Empire because we really received help from the dragons when we founded the country thousands of years ago. Although the dragons have not appeared on the mainland for thousands of years, the world's knowledge of the dragons only remains in the fairy tales of the poets. Many people even think that the founding emperor of the empire is flattering himself and trying to associate himself with the dragons. Little do they know that our friendship with the dragons is real. Now, on Dragon Island, the countless dragons are actually bored and are really happy to be invited by us."
"Dragon Clan..." The gray-robed young man widened his eyes, but at this moment -
"Roar----"
Waves of roars that broke through the sky came from the southern sky.
Everyone looked over there and saw tens of thousands of giant dragons spreading their wings and flying towards them. The terrifying dragon power instantly covered the world.
The dragons were moving at an extremely fast speed and soon collided with the flying monsters in the beast tide, starting a one-sided massacre.
As expected, the dragons slaughtered the flying monsters one-sidedly.
As flying monsters fell like rain, the morale of the city defenders was greatly boosted.
The captain of the squad on the top of the city laughed out loud, "It's more than two hours earlier than expected! Not bad, not bad!"
When Lao Zheng and others nearby heard this, they suddenly realized that the reinforcements mentioned earlier were these terrifying giant flying "lizards".
Lao Zheng and the others watched the one-sided battle in the sky, and then looked at the ground, where the dragon's breath was "washing the ground", reducing the pressure on the city defense, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Zheng even whispered, "Colonel Chu, it seems that Mr. Qin and his men don't need to take action."
Chu Xuan nodded slightly, but then said, "Actually, I hope Mr. Qin will take action."
"Huh? Why..." Lao Zheng reacted quickly.
If Qin Bin could help in a critical moment, then when the Holy Dragon Empire recovers, they will not be too harsh on their "envoy", after all, a favor is there.
But now, the dragon clan has changed the situation of the war. Even though Lao Zheng and his team had made some contributions in buying time before, their contributions were not that impressive. They really could not influence the attitude of the indigenous high-level officials. If they were discovered or something went wrong, then the situation and even the fate of this fake delegation could be imagined.
Not to mention what Lao Zheng and the others were thinking, while the dragons were "cleaning the ground" and "clearing out", on the high platform of the city wall, the female general Xina saw that the overall situation was settled, and the gray-robed young man Ryan Memphis knelt on the ground, staring blankly at the "dance of dragons" in the distance, his face full of despair, and said.
"The only thing I'm wondering now is how did the Chinese delegation offend you? Can you tell me?"
Ryan's neck was stiff as he turned to look at the cold-tempered imperial princess. He was silent for a moment before speaking bitterly.
"I recognize their training uniforms. I didn't think of doing anything to them. I just didn't want the Chinese military to get involved before I figured out the situation. At the same time, I was thinking that if they were really from the Chinese military, I would have to set up a trap to put you at odds with the Chinese military, so that you wouldn't have an extra external force..."
"Oh? You really do know China, and you're not as stupid as you seem." Hina became interested.
"Hey... I am——"
When Ryan was about to say something, suddenly, the sky and the earth changed color, and a white light came from the center of the sea of monsters in the forest ruins dozens of kilometers away, followed by a terrible roar and a powerful collapse and sudden expansion shock wave, instantly plunging the entire battlefield into a devastating storm.
Fortunately, the fortress city was far away, so the shock wave and explosion had little impact on the people, beasts, and dragons near the fortress city. At most, the wind was a little stronger, the ears were a little buzzing, and the eyes were temporarily blinded by the white light.
When the people and dragons came to their senses and looked at the mushroom cloud rising high in the distance, Lao Zheng and others were stunned, and Liu Ruohua couldn't help but mutter, "Mr. Qin and the others...are playing a little too much..."
"Boom————"
There was another terrible explosion, and after the white light there was another mushroom cloud.
"Boom————"
Yes, another mushroom cloud.
"......" Lao Zheng and others were completely confused.
Chu Xuan smiled, which was rare for him. “Only Mr. Qin and his team can use tactical fusion bombs like this.”
"Boom——————"
A mushroom cloud rose.
At this time, the captain of the armored squad also came over and said, "Foreign envoy! Those explosions, which clearly had no magical fluctuations but were forbidden spell-level, were caused by your companions!?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, yes. By the way, General, you'd better find a way to let my companions know that the dragon tribe is a friendly force."
"?!!"
The captain of the armored squad was startled, and he quickly took out a magic stone for transmitting sound, and informed the Griffin Air Cavalry on the left wing to bypass the explosion point and find the person who caused the explosion, and also told them that the dragon clan was a friendly force.
In fact, the worries of the armored squad leader were unnecessary. Chu Xuan said this on purpose. Chu Xuan knew very well that with the abilities of Qin Bin and others, they would be able to distinguish between friends and foes, and it was impossible for them to accidentally hurt the dragon clan. The reason why he said this was just to give Qin Bin the initiative.
Without talking about the situation here, let’s turn the camera back to the high platform of the city wall.
Female General Hina stood up from her chair in horror and looked at the mushroom clouds in the distance in disbelief.
The gray-robed young man Ryan trembled even more. "This kind of mushroom cloud, without any magical fluctuations... can't it be... a nuclear bomb... those guys really dare... to use, to use nuclear weapons... to clean up the place... well, so scary..."
"Nuclear bomb? Weapons? Nuclear weapons? What is that?" Xina looked back at Ryan with a grim expression.
Ryan was completely desperate and had no intention of hiding it, so he said, "A weapon that is more terrifying than the forbidden spell of destruction. Once used, a city with a population of one million will be easily razed to the ground. And this one in front of us should be the kind with very small power... Oh, it's called a tactical nuclear bomb. China has a lot of such weapons, and it seems that there are as many as you want-"
At this moment, Xina raised her hand to stop Ryan from speaking, and took out a voice stone, and soon the voice of the captain of the armored squad was heard from it.
[Xina, notify the dragons to stay away from the forest to prevent accidental injuries! ]
Xina didn't think much about it and quickly took out another voice stone. After conveying some words in dragon language, the dragons outside began to move away from the forest and hover over the fortress city or clear out the land monsters.
After doing all this, Xina asked the first sound transmission stone, "Second brother, what is going on?!"
[What else could it be? If nothing unexpected happened, it was the chief officer of the Chinese delegation who got lost in the forest who did this. Anyway, keep an eye on Ryan Memphis. Don't let this guy get away. He almost brought us a terrible enemy. When everything is over, we will settle all the old and new grudges with him!]
"...Don't worry, brother. I will keep an eye on him."
As Xina spoke, she glanced at Ryan, who was even more confused. At the same time, the two soldiers guarding the side also took direct action, sealed Ryan's magic power, disarmed him and tied him up.
Ryan said incredulously, "You called him Second Brother... That voice... It was that guard's... That guard was actually the missing Second Prince in disguise?!"
"With your aunt as the queen, if your second brother had not turned to the dark side, he would have ended up like your eldest brother... But it doesn't matter. We will soon be able to settle all the new and old grudges together." Xina smiled at Ryan with a slightly bloodthirsty look.
