Demon Royal Family

Andrew, the captain of the Lancer Corps, led the regiment towards the west, covered with stars and moon, and was extremely anxious.

After receiving Lucian's letter asking for help, he gave up all subsequent military operations and led the entire army to support the Western Territory.

The northern border was half destroyed, the southern border fell, the eastern border was plagued by orcs, and the central high stone plains fell into the hands of Barea. Only the western border was the last land controlled by Lasces. The Western Region is the confidence that supports all soldiers to continue fighting.

He thought of the defense plan that Ivo had mentioned to him a few months ago, but he didn't hold out much hope. Although that plan was good, it took too long to take shape. It had only been a few months, and I'm afraid the city wall hadn't even been built yet. good.

Moreover, the Western Territory faced the legendary Duke of Baria, which made Andrew involuntarily lower his confidence in Ivo.

Andrew now only hopes to arrive before the Western Territory is completely bulldozed and restore the situation.

…

"Baria's army?!" Lord Rael screamed. Not only him, but Sucre and Seliu also looked ugly.

The four territories were the foundation of the defense line. Ivo held a meeting of lords and told the three people about the attack of Duke Kane. As expected, the three lords panicked.

"Ivo, are you crazy? With four of us little lords, how can we stop the Baria army?

"I think it's better to escape to Luolong City."

The three lords expressed their opinions and were all worried about the future.

Ivo shook his head: "I know that the defensive side is very passive. The defense line has not been fully built yet, and there will be many loopholes. But there is no way. I can't give up the investment of such a large resource. The war is burning all over Frigga, and risks are everywhere. We I have always had the awareness to get involved in a war, and I must hold on to it this time.”

"The battle will happen sooner or later. It is better to have the help of the Pegasus Legion now than to have to fight against powerful enemies alone in the future."

The three of them looked at each other, and finally nodded heavily.

Ivo breathed a sigh of relief and took out a piece of paper. "This is a task for each territory. You must complete it. Facing the legendary legendary Duke, we can no longer do those little tricks. This must be a tough battle. We must pay attention to any Don’t let Duke Kane find any loopholes in the details.”

"clear."

The three lords left in a hurry. Ivo rubbed his brows. He had not slept all night. He was overworking his mind and was tired. However, the enemy would arrive in two or three days, so he obviously had no time to rest.

The order was passed from level to level in the lord's longhouse, and all hands on the defense line moved.

No one knows whether they can survive this crisis.

…

This is the long wall surrounding Liema Town. Ivo arrived here before dawn, surrounded by slightly nervous guards. In addition to being in awe of Ivo, they were also afraid of the upcoming enemies.

It rained last night, the roads were a little muddy, and there was moisture in the air.

The smell of earth was mixed with water vapor, and it smelled slightly fishy. Ivo closed his eyes and took a deep breath, which made it cool from his nose to his lungs. He patted Shiho's arm next to him, "Did you eat onions this morning?"

Shiti was stunned for a moment and said in admiration: "How did you guess it?"

"Get away from me, you farted."

"..."

Today is the early morning of the fourth day. Last night, the scout troops wandering outside the defense line sent back intelligence that Barea's advance troops were about to arrive at the defense line, which happened to be in the direction of Liema Town. The total number was about 10,000 people.

Ivo got up overnight and added more manpower to the Long Wall of Liema Town, including many soldiers from the Pegasus Legion. He wanted to see the combat effectiveness of Baria's troops. Only by understanding the enemy could he make targeted arrangements.

Ivo raised his eyebrows and looked up at the flag erected on the bunker. When he saw the flagpole shaking at an undetectable level, he thought to himself that it was finally here.

First there was a faint shock, and then there was the sound of horse hooves that gradually turned from slight to deafening. It rumbled like rolling thunder, and a cloud of smoke appeared in the distance. Countless Barian cavalry quickly approached the long wall.

There are over 10,000 people, boundless.

Two thousand meters outside the long wall, tens of thousands of Barian cavalry quickly stopped and looked at the long wall from a distance. A cold light shone from the eye slits of the parrot helmets that tightly wrapped their heads.

The sophisticated armor, the sharp lance, and the style of imposing orders and prohibitions made Ivo's heart sink.

This is the regular army.

Even though the northern orcs are very strong individually, they are still chased around by the Spear Legion.

This is the difference between the miscellaneous army and the regular army.

It's like the difference between a piece of stone and steel.

Ivo breathed out, turned around and walked down the city wall. Rhodes on the side said in surprise: "Lord, won't you stay to command the battle?"

"We can't fight today." Ivo waved his hand with his back, "Have you ever seen someone using cavalry to attack a city? That's a waste."

As he expected, Barea's advance troops did not take action, but divided into several groups to conduct reconnaissance around the defense line and look for weaknesses in the defense line. These measures gave Ivo a little understanding of Kane's commanding ability, at least to a standard. The above generals.

These days, there are always people giving Ivopu the deeds and reputation of Duke Kane, which puts a lot of pressure on him and also stimulates his fighting spirit.

A few days later, Barea's large army finally arrived outside the defense line. The tents were endless. Even the linen cloth could not cover the ferociousness of the siege equipment. All the guards' hearts were in their throats.

Ivo stared closely at Duke Kane who was watching the defense line on the hillside in the distance. The legendary Duke also noticed him, and their eyes collided in mid-air.

Kane turned his gaze slightly, as if he didn't care about this person at all.

"Prepare for battle, check the weapons, and adjust the state of the mage group." Ivo frowned and ordered. This was the first time he had seen such a large battle scene. His palms were wet with sweat and sticky, and he didn't bother to wipe it off.

About half an hour later, Barea's troops approached with ladders and siege vehicles. In the distance, there were ten catapults. The regular army had no shortage of siege equipment, and the guards on the long wall were nervous.

"charge!"

The Barians roared angrily and accelerated their advance. At the same time, the opponent's catapults also started, and huge rocks roared towards the city wall, covering the charging troops and containing the arrow rain on the long wall.

"Mage group, come to me," Ivo Li Yunlong possessed: "Ballista team, archery team, give me a damn fight!"

The mage group is a special organization in the army. The existence of magic brings more possibilities to war. Most of Ivo's mage group are academics, and some others are mercenary mages.

Elemental spells shot out from behind the long wall, shattering the boulders in mid-air.

The magic power of mages is limited, so Ivo divided the magic group into three queues. Only when the previous queue has exhausted its magic power can the next queue take action, allowing the mages to have time to meditate and recover, ensuring uninterrupted spell attacks or defenses.

But there are two sides to the problem. The Barria Army must also have a mage group. When the two sides fight together, they will have no time to take care of the catapults.

Ivo does not intend to be beaten all the time. He also has catapults in his territory, which are placed behind the long wall and throw boulders to hit the opponent's formation from a distance. The Barians responded exactly the same as him, also relying on the mage group to break the boulders. In this way The mage groups from both sides were restrained, and they still had to rely on ordinary soldiers to fight.

Ballistas and bows fired waves of long-range strikes. Barria's troops were well-equipped. Guards in heavy armor and tower shields opened the way in front, blocking many attacks. When they approached the city wall a hundred meters away, they changed their formation and moved away the tower shields. Reveal the archers behind and strike back against the wall.

The regular army's fighting method was steady and without any flaws, which put unprecedented pressure on the guards.

The ladder was quickly put up on the city wall, and waves of Barian soldiers rushed up. Fighting broke out, and blood spurted out.

The siege engines were also hitting the city gate. The city gate was sealed with many crossbars. There were also many veterans standing behind the city gate to prevent people from being killed.

The Bahria regular army's advance and retreat were well-founded and their strength was outstanding. After more than half a year of training, the Liema Town guards also had good quality. The two sides were fighting inextricably.

The masters in the territory were guarding the ladder, determined not to let the enemy gain a foothold.

Ivo waved his double swords and slashed wildly in the crowd. He found that against a large number of enemies whose strength was far inferior to his own, the killing efficiency of the double swords was higher than that of war hammers and war spears. Like the incarnation of the god of death, he had already chopped down two enemies. Against the standard long sword, the corpses piled higher and higher under the city wall.

After being promoted to a level 6 warrior, his strength became even stronger, and he could break the opponent's arm bones with a single slash of his sword through weapons that ordinary soldiers could parry.

After killing for an unknown amount of time, his hands began to feel numb. The horns sounded in the Barria army, and the enemy slowly retreated.

Looking at the sky, it was already dusk before I knew it.

On the hillside in the distance, Duke Kane had an expressionless face.

Ivo breathed heavily, knowing that this was only the Barrian's first test.
