Chapter 248 Fierce Battle
Chapter 248 Fierce Battle
Darwin's magic was so powerful that it frightened the enemy, but the battle was not over. The enemy did not retreat because of this failure, and they attacked the Minx wall even more frantically. Alpha and Darwin knew that they had to continue to hold on. For the sake of their homeland and the hope of survival, they could not retreat.
In this battlefield filled with gunpowder, Alpha and Darwin used their courage and magic to guard the walls of Minx and the faith in their hearts. Their story will become a legend among people and will be passed down forever.
In the evening, the enemy sounded the drums and retreated, leaving behind only a pile of dead bodies. The enemy suffered heavy casualties on the first day, but for the mutants, this was nothing, just consumption.
Of the remaining 3,000 people, at least half were mutant orcs, and the ordinary knights were basically wiped out by Mark and Ferold, which made the subsequent battle very difficult.
"Lord Alpha, we have finally survived the first round of attacks. Next we must defend Minx and completely defeat the enemy." Thor was still relatively optimistic.
"No, the enemy's attack is not over yet. Night is the mutants' home turf, so we must be on high alert. Fatham, you and the Heavy Armored Knights will have to go into battle at night. We can't let them attack our city at night." Alpha knew that humans are weak at night, so he prepared to keep the enemy out and use the Heavy Armored Knights to attract the enemy's attack.
As night fell over the land, Alpha, Darwin and the leader of the Heavy Armor Knights, Fattam, gathered together to urgently discuss night defense tactics. Fattam was an experienced warrior, and he had already made plans for the upcoming night battle.
"Lord Alpha, I propose to divide the Heavy Armored Knights into three groups, each equipped with magical lighting equipment to prevent surprise attacks in the dark." Fattam expressed his thoughts. He knew very well that the mutant orcs had sharper senses at night.
"At the same time, we can set up traps and magic circles around the city walls and use Lord Darwin's magic to carry out long-range attacks to provide support for the cavalry." Fattam continued to explain his plan.
Alpha shook his head and explained, "We don't have many heavy-armored knights. If we disperse, we won't be able to perform to the best effect, so we must concentrate our strength. At the same time, we must ensure that each group can transmit information in real time so that we can deploy troops more effectively."
Darwin agreed and added: "In addition to attack magic, I will prepare some defense and recovery magic to ensure the safety of the warriors in the night battle. The daytime battle consumed a lot of my energy, and I can't continue to use large-scale attack magic at the moment."
As the night deepened, the mutant orcs appeared as expected. Their figures looked extremely terrifying under the moonlight, their eyes flashed green light, their steps were heavy and powerful, and they launched a fierce attack on the walls of Minx.
Fattam led the heavy-armored knights to bravely meet the enemy. The iron armor reflected a cold light under the moonlight. They were like a mobile fortress, indestructible. Whenever the mutant orcs tried to approach, they would be ruthlessly cut down or repelled by powerful magic.
The archers and magicians on the city wall were not to be outdone, and they used their height advantage to shoot arrows and magic bullets at the enemy. Although bows and arrows posed less of a threat to the mutants, they could still have a certain hindering effect if they could hit the enemy's vital points.
"Kill!" With a roar, the mutant commander's eyes burst into endless anger. He watched the enemy so boldly and brazenly rush out of the city wall. This was undoubtedly a contempt for him and his legion. His anger erupted like a volcano, and his roar echoed on the battlefield, shocking everyone.
At the same time, the heavy armored corps under the city wall also felt the commander's anger. They were heavily armored, like a steel fortress, but at this moment they became the target of the enemy's venting. However, they did not retreat at all, because they had firm beliefs and iron will.
"Solid as a rock, indestructible!" Under Fatam's passionate command, all the heavy armored knights shouted the slogan together. This slogan was like a war drum, inspiring everyone's heart. Their voices gathered into a powerful force, resounding through the sky, making the enemy tremble.
Fatam, the respected leader, stood at the front of the team. His figure was tall and firm, and his eyes revealed great determination. He was the soul of the heavy-armored knights, and his presence filled them with confidence and courage.
At this tense moment, the heavily armored knights united closely. They relied on each other and fought in coordination, forming an indestructible line of defense. Their shields intertwined with each other, forming a copper wall and iron wall, withstanding the fierce attack of the enemy.
The enemy's attacks came like a tide, but the heavily armored knights were not afraid. They used their huge shields to block the enemy's arrows and swords, while brandishing their sharp weapons to fight back. Their fighting skills were skillful and exquisite, and every swing of the sword carried a deadly threat.
The battlefield was filled with smoke and blood, but the morale of the heavy armored knights remained undiminished. They firmly believed that as long as they were united, nothing could stop them. They were defenders of justice, and they would give everything to protect their hope.
"Die! You beasts!" The heavy armored corps resisted the enemy's fierce attack with difficulty, but they were helpless as to how to effectively eliminate the enemy. Fattam resolutely raised the short gun, aimed at the enemy, pulled the trigger, and delivered a fatal blow.
With a deafening bang, the five mutants in front of him were instantly blown into pieces by the powerful artillery fire, which demonstrated the destructive power of artillery fire.
"Captain Fattam, please give me the artillery!" At present, only Fattam and the three captains can withstand the power of the artillery. Others who use it will only perish together with the enemy.
The three captains took turns to fight and cleared the mutants in front at an astonishing speed. However, the mutants in the back roared and quickly filled the gap. At this moment, the only ones who could inflict a fatal blow to the enemy were the snipers on the city wall. Unfortunately, it was dark and the snipers' actions were greatly restricted.
However, as flash bombs streaked across the sky, the snipers finally found their chance and roared. Every gunshot meant the fall of a mutant. Unfortunately, there were too many enemies, and the magic gun's attack effect was just a drop in the bucket.
In this ultimate showdown between willpower and the flesh, everyone is doing their best to fight for victory. The battlefield is filled with smoke and blood, like a picture of doomsday.
The enemy's attacks came like a tide, wave after wave, without any sign of stopping. Although the defenders of Minx were brave and fearless, their physical and mental strength were on the verge of collapse.
Fattam looked at Alpha anxiously and said, "Sir, we have reached a critical moment of life and death. We must make a final decision. Should we continue to hold on and wait for reinforcements, or take the risk of counterattacking and seek a glimmer of hope?"
Alpha knew that sitting and waiting for death was not the best strategy. They had to take the initiative to attack in order to have a chance to turn the tide of the battle. He answered with a firm gaze: "Fatham, gather all of us who can still fight. We must use our last strength to deal a fatal blow to the enemy!"
Fatam took the order without hesitation and quickly organized a commando team consisting of elite heavy-armored knights and magic artillery. Their target was the enemy's command center. As long as they could destroy the enemy's command system in one fell swoop, they could effectively weaken the enemy's combat effectiveness.
"Caracal, it's up to you at the critical moment." This is Alpha's hidden secret weapon. He has been waiting for the best opportunity. Now that the time has come, he will make the enemy pay a heavy price.
Under the cover of the pitch-black night, the commandos quietly crossed the battlefield and approached the enemy's rear. In the heavy armor team in front, Fatam and the three captains took turns to operate the artillery, while the other knights held their weapons tightly, ready to charge at any time. In another direction, the manul and others were like ghosts, quietly approaching the enemy's command center.
As the caracal and his men gradually approached the enemy's command center, Fattam took the lead and pulled the trigger first. The huge roar was like thunder, echoing in the quiet night. The shining light of the artillery illuminated the panicked faces of the enemies. Then, other guns also opened fire, and the dense sound of bullets intertwined together, forming a fierce artillery bombardment. This sudden and powerful firepower made the enemy instantly at a loss, and they fled around like headless flies.
The caracal and his men seized the opportunity created by the frontal firepower and attacked the enemy's command center like a tiger descending from a mountain. In an instant, the enemy army was in chaos, and the mutants fled in terror. Seeing this, Minks's soldiers took advantage of the situation and launched a charge, defeating the enemy in one fell swoop like a storm.
As the enemy's command center collapsed, the entire mutant army began to show signs of large-scale retreat. The defenders of Minx finally felt relieved, knowing that this hard-fought battle had finally been won.
Alpha stood on the towering city wall, staring at the retreating enemy, and let out a long breath: "Although we won this battle, this is only the beginning of a protracted war. We need stronger forces and a more solid alliance to completely defeat the enemy."
Darwin stood beside Alpha, and they both knew that this victory was just a starting point, and the real challenge had just begun. However, they also understood that as long as everyone worked together, nothing was impossible to achieve.
"Attack on all fronts!" Looking at the enemies fleeing in a panic, Alpha gave the order for a full-scale attack, and everyone roared in excitement.
At Alpha's command, the defenders of Minx charged forward like wild horses. Their figures looked particularly heroic in the blazing firelight, and every charge was accompanied by a war cry that resounded through the sky, and every assault seemed to herald the dawn of a new victory.
The enemy was defeated in chaos, the mutants trampled on each other in panic, and the destruction of the command center completely destroyed their fighting spirit. Minx's army pursued the victory and did not give the enemy any chance to breathe.
When the last enemy soldier fled the battlefield, the trumpet of victory sounded on the walls of Minks, and people hugged each other excitedly to celebrate this hard-won victory.
Looking at the triumphant warriors, their faces filled with joy of victory and exhaustion, Alpha knew that all the efforts were worth it.
"Mark, Ferold, your men will take over the city defense, and let the Heavy Armored Corps go back to rest." In this battle, the Heavy Armored Corps could be said to have withstood all the pressure, which made the balance of victory tilt in our favor. Once the enemy crossed the steel defense line and entered the city, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Thor, Alice, how much ammunition do you have left?" Since each team only has two of the new weapons provided by Alpha, they need to be used in turns, so the ammunition is consumed very quickly. At present, Alpha's inventory has basically run out.
"Lord Alpha, we only have two ammunition stocks left, and there are no new bullets in the warehouse." Alice said worriedly.
"You and Thor's special forces team will take turns guarding the city walls. Use ordinary bullets against all other enemies except mutants. I will ask the rear to speed up the production of ammunition." Alpha had no choice but to use it economically.
In the joy of victory, Alpha has begun to think about post-war adjustments. Although the defenders of Minks won the battle, they are facing a more difficult task - rebuilding the city, healing the wounded and preparing for possible attacks again.
Mark and Ferold quickly organized the soldiers and replaced the heavy armored legions, giving these battle-hardened warriors a chance to rest. Everyone felt unprecedented fatigue, but there was a gleam of victory in their eyes.
