Chapter 285
The great battle is imminent.
Apart from the Heavy Spear Clan, who dared not make a move, there was nothing else to worry about around Dawn City.
Although no Archmage was needed to fight this battle, William still left Annie and her three thousand Personal Guard, along with the entire Legion of the Winged Folk, to defend the home.
As for the remaining combat-ready forces, they all sounded the horn of war and began to prepare for battle.
Of these, 50,000 Reserve Legion to serve as auxiliary forces, while 130,000 were Regular Army responsible for the main battle.
Countless Commoners lined both sides of the street, waving food and flowers to bid farewell to the soldiers who were sure to return victorious.
William did not allow these Legion to conceal themselves; he ensured that everyone wore the best equipment and carried the most expensive weapons.
The entire army consisted of 130,000 Regular Army, even the worst-equipped of whom were in Silver Set. These were all built using other people's resources and money, and William would not be stingy in the slightest.
Of these 80,000 troops, all were Intermediate-Class Professional.
As for the most dazzling Legion, Glory, Fearless, Moonlight, Black Night, they all have Gold Set!
The Blade Cavalry Regiment and the 500 Dragonblood Warrior, on the other hand, were all equipped with Dark Gold sets.
In addition, all their equipment was enchanted and socketed with attribute gems.
Absolutely.
Their equipment is ridiculously luxurious...
William knew that this war would attract the attention of many forces observing from the shadows, so he would show them his strongest side and let them see for themselves that Dawn City was absolutely not to be provoked.
He chose to send these five Legion as the vanguard, charging headlong towards Eastsea City.
The Demon Cavern they encountered along the way were all utterly crushed, leaving the many Demon hiding there, plotting schemes, with nowhere to turn for help...
After all, these guys are too strong.
The equipment is excellent.
Many Demon, seeing the army passing through the Slaughter Plains, didn't dare utter a sound, abandoned their Demon Cavern, and quickly fled.
Since its establishment, Dawn City has never ceased its wars, nor has it ever lost a war. Almost every Legion possesses an invincible morale and confidence.
Its soaring momentum is no exaggeration.
The entire force of 180,000 moved eastward, as if an invisible blade had materialized around them, cleaving through the clouds in the sky.
Despite being surrounded by shadows.
But the Legion of Dawn City always face the sun's rays.
Several scouts from the Red Fire Kingdom, witnessing this scene, were deeply moved. One of them couldn't help but remark, "This is exactly like our Red Fire Kingdom's Legion before its founding; they both possess fearless courage and an invincible belief in victory."
"Not only is the military strong, but the equipment is also top-notch, making people drool. As long as they keep winning, they may well be able to forge several invincible Army Spirit."
"As expected, His Majesty the King has a far-sighted vision, recognizing the great development potential of this ally."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Your Majesty is wise..."
Leaving aside the few sycophants of the Red Fire Kingdom, spies from other factions couldn't help but gasp in astonishment upon seeing Dawn City's formidable Legion.
No wonder the Dawn City Lord spoke so harshly; it seems he truly has the strength and determination to destroy Eastsea City.
However, if there are too many Vampires...
Then the situation becomes hard to say!
William, along with two Grandmaster, Solimans and Old Pi, plus Diablo, Burning Ash, Tyrannosaur, and more than twenty other High-Class, led the Legion on a five-day journey before finally arriving at the desolate border of Eastsea City.
Without a doubt.
Eastsea City has no intention of fighting them on the border. They have already wiped out the surrounding area, leaving not a single grain of food or a single person behind.
Bernard's intentions were quite clear.
Weren't you going to kill me?
Isn't Dawn City supposed to be all high and mighty?
Then I don't need to disperse my forces and let you defeat them one by one. I will just place all my Legion in Eastsea City. If you have the ability, then come and attack.
The situation is obvious.
Siege warfare is undoubtedly the most difficult and costly task for Professional today.
In addition, the city walls of Eastsea City are over thirty meters high.
Even for Intermediate-Class Professional, Siege Ladder are necessary.
Doing so would undoubtedly cause significant losses and trouble for the attacking side.
There used to be Player who could throw their lives at William, but not anymore...
As for Eastsea City, it is not afraid of being besieged or trapped.
In this magical era, everyone has Space Ring, so as long as it doesn't take too long, there's no shortage of food and resources.
Since Dawn City has declared that it will take Eastsea City within a month.
Bernard decided to stall him for time.
Although he now deeply regrets killing those people from Dawn City, if he can defeat the renowned Dawn City Legion, the rise of Eastsea City will be unstoppable.
The Dawn Legion encountered no obstacles or traps along the way.
Eastsea City abandoned all pointless ambushes and allowed the army of Dawn City to besiege the city.
The entire army of 180,000 stretched out as far as the eye could see, all clad in bright silver armor, like a silver tide.
This put a lot of pressure on the Vampires of Eastsea City.
But for defense...
Not too many troops are needed.
However, Eastsea City still has Legion of 130,000 men that can be utilized.
The more crucial Vampires Legion arrived in Eastsea City yesterday.
Bernard was thrilled. This Vampires Legion wasn't there to die; they were there to deliver a fatal blow.
If it can be used well.
That would absolutely unleash a power akin to Forbidden Spell, crippling multiple Legion of the Dawn, and even turning defeat into victory in one fell swoop.
not to mention.
He also had quite a few Vampires under his command, numbering over a thousand.
Besides himself, there are two other Grandmaster, 56 High-Class Vampires, and the rest are all Intermediate-Class Professional.
Thanks to their rapid regeneration, Vampires are far more effective on the battlefield than humans.
Because they can restore their HP by sucking blood.
There are too many humans on the battlefield.
Just give them a chance.
They are Undying beings.
On their first day in Eastsea City, the Dawn Legion did not launch an attack, but simply set up camp and didn't even bother to assemble Catapult.
This situation is confusing to many people...
Didn't you plan to take Eastsea City within a month?
Even if you plan to attack the city slowly and steadily, you didn't assemble such a crucial thing as the Catapult beforehand. Don't tell me you don't have Space Ring.
William offered no explanation; he simply rode his warhorse, constantly observing the three sides of the Eastsea City walls.
"According to our scouts, the three city gates have been blocked off with stones. It will be difficult to break through them and enter the city."
"But every city wall has its weak points." William narrowed his eyes; he had already found them.
then.
On the morning of the second day.
The moment the Eastsea City garrison opened their eyes wide.
When some spies craned their necks to look at those dark cannon barrels!
A full 300 Artillery opened fire simultaneously on five weak points in the city wall!
Rumble!
The air was filled with the sound of gunfire.
When the cannonballs struck those Heavy City, the entire Eastsea City trembled as if a massive earthquake had occurred.
Even though the city walls were enchanted, large pits kept appearing, and they kept collapsing.
no way.
The Artillery in the magical era are incredibly powerful; not only can the cannon barrels be enchanted, but the cannonballs can also be enchanted.
The enchanted Artillery is incredibly powerful, almost ridiculously so.
The most crucial point is that everyone is...
William secretly placed some fragments of Mana Crystal inside certain cannonballs...
The explosive power it generated was far beyond the reach of Artillery, and it even made others question their own existence.
Is this even Artillery?
Why is it so powerful?
If a few more shots like that come, won't they just blow up the city walls?
Bernard swayed back and forth on the city wall, his Titanium Dog Eyes nearly going blind.
He hurriedly shouted, "Quickly organize the men! Quickly organize the men! We must plug those weak points, otherwise Eastsea City will definitely fall!"
The human Legion inside the city, faced with the Vampires threatening the lives of their families, had no choice but to act immediately, rushing to the back of the bombarded city walls to block them once the walls were breached.
But at the same time...
A Vampires gazing at the eastern sea suddenly widened his eyes.
He only saw a dozen or so Warship with Dawn City Sail suddenly attacking from the sea.
He hurriedly ordered the fleet from Eastsea City to go out and meet the enemy!
but...
The sound of cannon fire rang out again on the eastern sea. Two Warship were smashed to pieces, and logs and barrels rolled into the sea. Countless people were blown into the Ocean the moment the cannonballs hit the ships.
In particular, the two Epic Warship of Dawn City directly braved the fiercest attack, riding the waves and charging into the middle of the Eastsea City fleet, unleashing their full firepower.
Each of these Warship had dozens, even hundreds, of Artillery on its hull. The moment the Artillery roared...
The closest Eastsea City Warship were instantly smashed in half.
Captain Jack is not only Dragonblood Warrior, but also Dragonblood Warrior with Legendary Bloodline, as he leaps across enemy Warship.
Where the Blade Light.
Some crew members on deck and the Sail were cut off!
Someone wanted to stop his killing spree...
But what experts does the Eastsea Fleet have?
Even some High-Class Professional are no match for the Legendary Jack...
The Blade Light and the roar of Artillery filled the air.
Blood mingled with seawater.
With each roar of Artillery.
The fleet from Eastsea City was routed and forced to flee in all directions.
Captain Jack led his Water Legion directly into the port.
At this moment.
The walls of Eastsea City were also breached.
After a large hole was punched in the city wall.
The Artillery did not cease.
William will not show mercy just because the soldiers standing behind the city walls are human.
The Artillery continued its bombardment, and as the sound of cannon fire rang out...
The defensive Legion of Eastsea City was instantly engulfed in flames.
Even if those Shield Warrior roared in unison and stacked their shields together, they couldn't withstand the power of a single cannonball!
The severed arm and armor flew into the air, leaving no trace of the deceased...
Bernard's initial hope was gone...
He stared blankly at the scene...
That's too fast.
Too fast...
A power with Artillery and a power without Artillery are not even in the same league...
A mere Legion Vampires...
What does it matter anyway?
But William really wanted to tell him...
In the face of large-scale war.
Apart from Magic Cannon.
The range of Artillery is the key.
Otherwise, why would I be so arrogant?
Today we will annihilate your Eastsea City!
William then led a large group of skilled fighters to attack Eastsea City at the same time.
then.
All the Legion were advancing towards Eastsea City in an orderly fashion.
The second update was around 5 or 6 PM, while I was writing.
I believe the person who said I wouldn't write more than five chapters of war stories, but I can write two or three.
